Each holiday season, families across the nation send Christmas cards, search for stocking-shaped cookie cutters and line up to see Santa at the mall-all in the name of holiday traditions.

While these cherished activities never go out of style, it can be fun to mix up your family's traditions to give a chic, modern twist to your classic Christmas cards, carols and cookies. Read on for some great tips for updating your family's parties, dcor and Christmas cards this year.

The first step in modernizing traditional holiday activities involves redefining your family's style-have your children outgrown visits with Santa and the parade of cartoon characters you've traditionally had on your Christmas cards?

Schedule a shoot with a photographer at the beach, on the slopes or in the botanical gardens this year and opt for a sleek and stylish photo Christmas card instead. You could even encourage your teenagers to send their own cool, personalized Christmas cards to their groups of friends to save them the utter embarrassment of sending a family photo on a Christmas card to their peers.

Another fun way to jazz up your jolly holiday traditions is by turning your classic activities into fun holiday parties! Send Christmas cards or invitations to all your friends as a way to organize a caroling party or a cookie decorating party. If you have exceptionally talented friends and family members, you can invite them over for a holiday decorating party and let them deck the halls with you. Or, you can even host a Christmas card decorating party for younger kids and craft-loving parents alike!

No matter what your family's holiday traditions are, it's important to let them evolve as your family grows and changes-otherwise, you might end up with the same cartoons on your Christmas cards year after year! 'Tis the season to showcase your style, so have some fun and give your celebration a fun, modern twist.

Nicktoons - Halloween - Tales of Fright

Our story is about a cute little pumpkin named Reggie. He can't wait to go to the jack-o-lantern auditions and play pumpkin games at the seasonal patch parties. However, in pumpkin society you either qualify to become a jack-o-lantern or you are kicked out of the patch and made into pie by the Bakerman. The Bakerman never makes pies out of jack-o-lanterns, but he has a big pie order to fill and now all pumpkins are up for grabs, especially Reggie. Reggie's courage unites the pie pumpkins and jack-o-lanterns to join together to defeat the Bakerman. The jack-o-lanterns finally realize the big or small, scary or not, they were all the same. And from now on all pumpkins will be Holiday jack-o-lanterns and treated as equals, thanks to Reggie.

A Read-A-Long DVD Picture Book Volume 1
Your choice of female or male narrator, with on screen story text so kids can read along, highly detailed and colorful 3D computer generated illustrations, picture gallery with musical track, and computer animated intro, for all ages.
Customer Review: A wonderful seasonal collection!
I love this DVD as I am quite the connoisseur of Halloween specials; I can't get enough of them! Hey Arnold's 'Arnold's Halloween' strikes the jackpot with its War of the Worlds inspired storyline; it's sufficiantly moody and fun. Rugrats' 'Curse of the Werewuff' is a new entry into Nick's Halloween canon and a welcome one at that. A show that has become too precious as of late, this stops before going to far with its own "cuteness". I still prefer thir original Halloween episode 'Candy Bar Creep Show', but 'Werewuff' is still highly enjoyable! The Fairly Odd Parent's 'Scary GodParents' is equally hip and funny and SpongeBob SquarePants' 'Scaredy Pants' is perfect. Only the strange inclusion of two non-Halloween related Rocket Power stories stops me forom giving this a five-star rating; they have a Halloween epsiode so why wasn't it included? Their two entires seem pointless and only one is anywhere near being holiday themed. With so many great Halloween epsiodes left off the DVD, one has to wonder at this choice.


Everyone loves Halloween!It's that time of year where people are encouraged to put on a costume and become someone else for a night. It's such a great way to shed some of you inhibitions, free yourself of demands and busy schedules and just have fun.Make it a family night or go out with a group of friends and enjoy "not" being yourself!

Ever wonder what the fashion was like in the 1920's? By just putting on a costume you can transform yourself back in time to the Roaring Twenties, the decade of "bath tub" gin, the Model T, the $5 workday and the movie.The costume history image in our minds of a woman during this time is likely to be the image of a Flapper. A fashionable Flapper had short sleek hair, a shorter than average shapeless shift dress, wore make up and smoked with a long cigarette holder.Today at Halloween women can easily transform themselves into Flapper Girls, Can-Can Dancers, Saloon Lady's or even Betty Boop.Men can go back in time by putting on a classic fitted Zoot Suit and stylish Fedora to play the part of a Gangster or don a baseball uniform and portray the legendary Babe Ruth or Lou Gehrig.

The 1950's and 60's were decades filled with rock-n-roll music and at the heart of it all was American Bandstand with Dick Clark. It showed teenagers everywhere how to do the latest dance steps such as; the Twist, the Hand Jive and the Stroll.The 1950's fashion for men was the "bad boy" look of a white t-shirt, jeans and a leather jacket (with the collar up of course) or the "good guy" look of a letter sweater, jeans and penny loafers.One look the women opted for was the infamous poodle skirt and saddle shoes.The 60's brought with it Woodstock and the retro-hippie look of wearing mini skirts, go-go dresses and hotpants. No costume idea would be complete representing the 50's and 60's if two of the biggest names in music history weren't mentioned; "The King" Elvis Presley and "The British Invasion" of The Beatles.Every year on Halloween you'll see kids and adults alike dressed as Elvis, John, Paul, George and Ringo.These costumes are extremely popular and can be found around the world!

So this Halloween take a step back in time to the Roaring 20's, the Glamorous 50's or the Groovy 60's.It's as simple as a costume, some makeup and a wonderful imagination!

Shrek the Third-Karate Cinderella Costume

Includes dress with tear away sleeves and tiara. Shoes not included. Available in child sizes toddler, small, and medium.


A Superhero is defined as, "a hero, especially in children's comic books and television cartoons, possessing extraordinary, often magical powers; usually portrayed as fighting evil or crime." Every child dreams of being a superhero and this Halloween will be no exception. It's one night that a child can actually become the superhero they dream about. Making their dream a reality is as simple as a costume and a night out trick-or-treating where everyone from family and friends to the neighbors can see them dressed head to toe as their favorite superhero.

Since the debut of the superhero Superman in 1938, stories of superheroes have dominated American comic books and have crossed over into television and the big screen. What draws many children to superheroes is simple - good v/s evil, with good always winning in the end. Of course their superhuman powers and all the cool gadgets they have doesn't hurt either. Another reason is that many superheroes are shroud in secrecy. They have secret identities, secret powers and even secret headquarters. Most wear masks and have some sort of sign on their costume recognizing them; for example, Batman has a bat on his chest, Superman the letter "S" and Spiderman has a webbed spider costume. On Halloween night children love the fact that they have a little bit of secrecy and that no one really knows who is behind the mask.

Many superheroes work alone in fighting crime, however there are also many superheroes that work in teams such as the Fantastic Four, X-Men, Justice League and Avengers. This makes for some great ideas for "group" costumes if your child wants to trick-or-treat with several of his friends.

A superhero themed birthday or Halloween party is also a wonderful idea. The child having the party gets to pick which superhero they want to be then all his/her friends come dressed as other superheroes. With all the great summer movies out this year there are quite a few superheroes to pick from; Batman The Dark Knight, The Incredible Hulk and Iron Man just to name a few.

So this year for Halloween turn your child's dream into a reality and make them truly feel like a superhero for the day!

But the picture of your dream dress is very vague in your mind, isn't it? All you need to do as preparation is to give clear outline to your visionary dress- the type of dress (a gown, a cocktail or any other dress for the pretty girls, or a trendy vest or a tuxedo suit for you gentleman!), the color, the shape, the trims accessories any special craft work (appliqu or embroidery for that matter!) and that's it! As the last preparation you have to find someone who can sew your dress, in case you can't do it yourself- it can be anyone- a professional tailor or a dear friend of yours- remunerations of course will differ- may be a few dollars to the professional and a gift or dinner for your friend!

Christmas Dress Designing for Women

If you dream of a halterneck dress, make it glamorous with some beautiful embroidery and beaded trim. Give a lace-up detail to the back that you can adjust to suit or go for a tie detail at back. Line it fully with acetate lining and feel the softness all over!

If you want a more glorious beaded 'V' neck dress, give it some asymmetric hemline with a flattering butterfly sleeves. Make it with polyester Georgette and pair it with polyester satin slip, you'll definitely love it! If you want something wild, go for animal print dress with a stunning somewhat low 'V' neck and crinkle finish, butterfly sleeves and side zip fastening, do it all in polyester.

For a simple yet sensuous feeling try a silky stretch knit top with beading along neck edge. Attach a long tie that wraps several times around the waist! It will look good only if you are slim. Make the top with a blend of viscose & elastane and ties with polyester chiffon.

If you want a special special Santa dresses then you have many options. A long red Santa gown, with white marabou trim - may have long side slit- will look elegant. A short velvet costume marabou trimmed details and lace-up, zip up, or open front will look very sweet.

The Pooka is the Anglicisation of the Old Gaelic word Puca, it refers to the most feared and respected fairy in Celtic folklore. According to legend, the Puca can metamorphose into a wide variety of shapes, it may appear as a horse, rabbit, goat, dog or goblin. However, it most commonly assumes the shape of a dark horse with yellow eyes, it roams the countryside at night smashing down fences and gates, terrifying and scattering livestock.

Certain agricultural traditions surround the Puca, at the end of harvesting, a small deformed goblin shows up in search of a small share of the crops, if he is not placated he will wreak havoc, so the croppers leave behind a small amount of the crop which has become known as the Puca's share to satisfy the ravenous goblin. Only one man ever managed to tame a puca - Brian Boru, when high King of Ireland, managed to ride a puca until it surrendered to his will. He forced the puca to make two promises - firstly that he would no longer torment Christians and secondly that he would no longer attack Irishmen except those who were drunk are were roaming with evil intent.

The puca agreed but has the centuries rolled by it forgot it's bargain and returned to it's old ways. However, in some areas the Puca is spoke about with quite an amount of deference and is treated with more respect than fear. It is stated that if the Puca is treated with respect they can actually turn out to be beneficial rather than malevolent.

Halloween - Television Version (Limited Edition)

Halloween is as pure and undiluted as its title. In the small town of Haddonfield, Illinois, a teenage baby sitter tries to survive a Halloween night of relentless terror, during which a knife-wielding maniac goes after the town's hormonally charged youths. Director John Carpenter takes this simple situation and orchestrates a superbly mounted symphony of horrors. It's a movie much scarier for its dark spaces and ominous camera movements than for its explicit bloodletting (which is actually minimal). Composed by Carpenter himself, the movie's freaky music sets the tone; and his script (cowritten with Debra Hill) is laced with references to other horror pictures, especially Psycho. The baby sitter is played by Jamie Lee Curtis, the real-life daughter of Psycho victim Janet Leigh; and the obsessed policeman played by Donald Pleasence is named Sam Loomis, after John Gavin's character in Psycho. In the end, though, Halloween stands on its own as an uncannily frightening experience--it's one of those movies that had audiences literally jumping out of their seats and shouting at the screen. ("No! Don't drop that knife!") Produced on a low budget, the picture turned a monster profit, and spawned many sequels, none of which approached the 1978 original. Curtis returned for two more installments: 1981's dismal Halloween II, which picked up the story the day after the unfortunate events, and 1998's occasionally gripping Halloween H20, which proved the former baby sitter was still haunted after 20 years. --Robert Horton
Customer Review: Classic Parts Are Much Better Than The Whole
In my eyes there are two categories of people when speaking of favorite holiday slasher films: those that like 1974's Black Christmas to those who rather prefer 1978's Halloween. Count me a part of the former's category, as Black Christmas is a forgotten perfected-diamond that not only chills the marrow, but is also intentionally hilarious in spots. Halloween, however, is a pretty good movie, damn near great in spots, in fact. Although it features scenes not only worthy of Psycho, and of which have found their rightful place inside classical cinema, yet the parts are indeed better than the whole. Halloween's approximate first 11 minutes and final 36 minutes (yup, I checked the runtime) are truly the reason the film is held in high proverb-- it's too bad that that only makes up a little over ½ of the film's total length. Halloween may in fact have a greater affinity for art-house horror fans like myself, than blood-and-guts fans, so I almost hate to say it, as Halloween I also remember fondly from my younger years, and it is one of those films that got me obsessed with horror, but nostalgia should never get in the way of being an honest and fair critic (or wannabe critic.) Halloween is a good movie, but damn that middle section sure is mightily flawed, and even seems cheesy in parts. Yet, the term arty can also be applied to the good parts of the film, as well. Yet, I hate to use that term "art-house horror movie", as that implies that horror is on the contrary, but I believe when viewing Halloween that it does in fact fit. This is due to the way John Carpenter directs the movie: stylish and relying on Hitchcockian-like suspense and a real sense of horror, rather than bodycount. I also must first point out that the dialogue throughout the film is actually one of the best components of the script. Often the everyday conversations about normal day things that Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) and her school friends have does in fact seem natural, rather than boring. Though we don't necessarily "know" the characters all that well from a literary perspective, we do like them, as they seem like any real life type of girls that both you or I might know in high school. Yet, the overbearing dialogue exchanges between Dr. Loomis (Donald Pleasence) and the Sheriff (Charles Cyphers) seems necessary, it's also too bad it's not known until about that 55 minute mark. As the masterful opening scene, and its follow up "escape from the hospital scene" is long forgotten after about another 45 minutes of misstepping true scares. As although the mask-wearing Myers may be indeed a scary villain, not due so much to the ice-cold way he dispatches the characters, but much more due to the fact that he truly feels like evil incarnate. Yet, it also must be said that the way that Dr. Loomis perceives Myers in dialogue at first seems like it's overblown, lame, and not natural. What doctor really talks of a patient in high-strung, diabolical terms: "Death has come to your little town, sheriff." To the films credit, however, although it at first slips into this "only in Hollywood" jargon, yet that is later completely evaded and it even becomes justified when we do later in fact agree with him in that final act when this "bogeyman" character is finally put and secured into a menacing night backdrop. Because, as good as John Carpenter is as generating suspense and menace in the terror scenes, in the initial daylight stalking scenes sadly lack that blood luster. As framing a character that your film makes out to the "The Bogeyman" not just in daylight, but also (hilariously) standing outside a school window just next to laundry, honestly brings a roll of the eyes, and a bad smile to my lips. Then having this evil character possibly hide behind bushes and a bed sheet makes me cover my eyes with my hands, shaking my head. Call me cynical, but it truly feels like two different kinds of films throughout the acts: a masterful frightshow, then a cheesy B-movie, and then back to a white-knuckle terror ride. In conclusion, despite that I still like Halloween and even if its opening scenes and final act are amongst my favorites, I must admit that in parts I can't really take the bogeyman threat that serious. Sorry. Score: 8.0 / 10.0 (In 0.5 increments)
Customer Review: My Favorite Movie Of All Time!
I was only 2 when it was released in theaters but growing up in the 80's it became and instant classic to me. Thank You John Carpenter for making Awesome Movies! And Thank You Mom for letting me watch all those horror movies growing up.


As with airplane simulators, RC helicopter flight simulators have come a long way. From weak graphics, they have evolved into programs you can immerse yourself in.

The remote control simulator software for helicopters is very similar to the airplane software, and in most cases is sold as a single package. In other cases, the helicopter simulations are sold as add on programs to the main software. The RC helicopter, like its real counterpart, is quite a bit different in its handling and flight characteristics from an RC airplane. If you are planning on flying RC helicopters, it is important to make sure that your selection is designed for them and not just for airplanes.

The basic difference in helicopter flight and airplane flight is in the taking off and landing. The helicopter does not need a runway, and its ability to move straight up and down as well as hover requires much less space for flight. This is one of the things that have made RC helicopters increasingly popular in the RC hobby field.

The top rated simulators for airplanes are also the best for helicopters. An example is the Great Planes RealFlight B3.5 simulator. This top of the line software program comes with an assortment of airplane and helicopter types. It also features a great many add on to increase the number and variety of models. Each add on gives you something like fourteen different planes and four or five new helicopter models from which to chose.

Some RC simulators are available online as downloads. One of the highest rated of this type is the Clearview RC Flight Simulator. Although you have to pay to download the software, this is a very advanced simulator. It is especially attractive to helicopter fans because although the program is for both planes and helicopters, it talks of its helicopter models first as if they are most proud of their variety there. The Clearview RC Simulator is designed to use a variety of controls. It is possible to control it via your keyboard. For advanced users, a handheld transmitter is used and attached to the PC with a USB cable.

The ability to simulate all types of conditions and flying areas and control the program with a transmitter similar to the actual one is the true advantage of RC simulation programs. It is a way to learn to fly your RC model in safety. It is the place to learn without risking your expensive models. There is a certain amount of risk involved in RC flight, but the trained operate can minimize this greatly.
