Happy Halloween

(October 31, 2011) Today is Halloween when costumed ghosts and goblins celebrate the frost on the pumpkin and enjoy "trick or treat" in their neighborhoods. This year the festivities may stay inside, even at home, because of this weekend's freak snowstorm. Many activities planned for Saturday and Sunday were canceled because of the weather and subsequent power, cable and telephone outages. Also, most area schools are closed today.

Today also, according to the United Nations, the world's population will hit 7 billion. Some nations are claiming to record that 7 billionth birth in their country.
