Let Halloween be Halloween
There's the fear that if children play dress up as witches, ghosts and other such fantasy characters of the "dark side" they will actually be seduced by evil. Many parents are torn between wanting their children to have a fun and safe celebration, and the fear of what they perceive as evil about the holiday---after all, its origins are from a pagan harvest festival. On All Saints Day, which is the day following Halloween and a Catholic feast day, families can celebrate all of the saints in our lives and those who have come before. These are the people who have brought the light of Christ into the "darkness" of our world. 10.02.02 Tecmo reveals new features for the Xbox version of the popular psycho thriller.

HALLOWEen Children should be dressed in flame retardant costumes with enough room to wear a jacket underneath if the weather is chilly, but not too large that the child is tripping over it. Before children begin trick-or-treating, tell them you will check their treats to make sure they re safe before they eat any. Make sure they understand the importance of a safety check. Only go to homes that are well-lit. Use a glow stick or small flashlight inside your jack-o -lantern instead of a candle.

Keeping Your Pets Safe on Halloween Please follow these tips, and share them with others, to help keep all pets safe this Halloween. A pet that's out at night with trick-or-treaters might get spooked by their excited voices and costumes, which could cause it to run off and get lost. If you have a black cat, you should be especially careful about keeping it indoors on Halloween. Keeping your dog in a secluded area of the house will help it stay calm and prevent it from growling or possibly biting your visiting ghouls and goblins. If you're considering giving someone a black cat to celebrate Halloween, please either give them a stuffed animal or a gift certificate to the Humane Society, instead.

All Saints' Day became known as All Hallows Day, while October 31 became All Hallows Eve and, eventually, Halloween.

Celts believed that bad spirits would take the form of cats Costumes: Celts (and other Europeans) wore masks when they left their homes after dark to avoid being recognized by ghosts who might mistake them for fellow spirits.

The real objective of this contrived legal spin is that when all six Sutter facilities are poised to win improved retirement, wages and staffing language, Sutter Eden will be spooking RNs with tales of "illegal demands," or "illegal strike activity," or some such.
