W.A.T.C.H.’s annual “10 Worst Toys” and the Nominees Are?

Every year World Against Toys Causing Harm (W.A.T.C.H.) releases a list of
the worse toys that have  potential to cause childhood injuries, or even
death.  Among the items on the 2009 list were products that the group said
could cause serious eye or head injuries, choking or strangulation. The
toys included a Disney-Pixar Wall-E foam rocket launcher, a Dark Knight
Batman action figure from Mattel, and an X-Men Origins Slashin’ Action
Wolverine action figure from Hasbro. Since 1972, founder Edward M. Swartz
and W.A.T.C.H. have exposed potentially dangerous toys to the general
public.

Thanksgiving 2009 Next Thursday

Another Thanksgiving day is coming… but, besides the turkey, what is exactly thanksgiving day about?

Thanksgiving is a harvest festival. Is time to thank god for the harvest and express gratitude. It is celebrated primarily in Canada and the United States.

The first thanksgiving was celebrated in the USA on 1863 and it was celebrated to thanks god for pilgrims survival to the hard winter. Later it become an official holiday on 1941.

Of Course, thanksgiving in those times had a different menu. Turkey was any kind of fowl the the pilgrims hunted. They where no ovens to cook so don’t even think about pumpkin pie. Flour supply was diminishing so there was not bread at all. Vegetables where also part of the menu at those times.

So, next Thursday, when you serve the turkey, you can now think about how thanksgiving look like in the past.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Susan Klebold Essay

Susan Klebold is the mother of Dylan who was one of the shooters of the Columbine school shooting and she recently had her essay published in Oprah’s magazine “O”.

In her essay Klebold says that she didn’t realize that her son was suicidal or depressed and that is why she titled it “I will Never Know Why.”

“For the rest of my life, I will be haunted by the horror and anguish Dylan caused. I cannot look at a child in a grocery store or on the street without thinking about how my son’s schoolmates spent the last moments of their lives. Dylan changed everything I believed about myself, about God, about family, and about love.”

What do you think about Susan Klebold Essay? Is it really possible to love your child so much and not know that he/she has emotional issues?
