October is coming.The days are shorter, the UGG Classic Short Boots are colder, and orange and red leaves are carpeting the ground like an homage to 70’s shag carpets.
There is always a delicate balance between being inventive while not freezing in the late fall evening of trick or treating and festive parties.As I was pondering this age old question, it occurred to me that UGG Classic Tall Boots might actually pose a solution to this problem.
Let’s take a look at a classic: cave person.Not only has that role survived the past few decades, but it has also offered the perfect inspiration for Halloween.
Granted, there’s not a lot of coverage going on for this costume.Just look atuggs on sale like the Sundance II or the Ultimate Tas; they’ve already got the fringe/tribal look going.

Measures to cut the risk of cot death must be taken for day-time naps as well as night-time sleeps, expert say.
Researchers said this includes both the advice that babies should sleep on their backs and that they should be in the same room as their parents.
They found three-quarters of babies who died during the day were sleeping in a room where an adult was not present.
The study, published in the International Journal of Epidemiology, studied 1,625 children.
Around 300 babies under the age of one die each year in the UK from cot death, or sudden infant death syndrome.
The latest research, carried out by experts from Bristol University, Newcastle’s Royal Victoria Infirmary and the Nuffield Institute for Health, was conducted over three years and included 325 infants in the UK who died and 1,300 of a similar age who did not.
The overwhelming majority of deaths - 83% - occurred at night-time, but of those that happened during the day, 75% were when babies were left in rooms unattended.
The study, partly funded by the Foundation for the Study of Infant Deaths, found that one in four of the babies left unattended had bedclothes over their head, compared to one in 10 where a parent was present.
The results also showed that death could happen extremely quickly.
Among the deaths that happened during the day, 38% were observed to be alive 30 minutes before they were found dead and 9% 10 minutes before they were found.
Lower oil prices in the global downturn have led to second-quarter profits at BP more than halving from a year ago.
Its replacement cost profit between April and June was $3.1bn (£1.9bn), down 53% from $6.75bn a year earlier.
Oil prices have hovered at between $60 and $70 a barrel recently - well off the high of $147 seen last July, but up from the $30 lows of earlier this year.
Chief executive Tony Hayward said the firm expected the global economic recovery to be “long and drawn out”.
‘We are in turbulent times, volatile and uncertain. But we continue to steer a steady course through choppy waters,” he added.
The results took BP’s half-year profits to $5.5bn, down 57% from the first six months of 2008.
However, its second-quarter profit was up 30% from the first three months of the year.
Blog: Experienced successor
Oct 30
King Fahd’s health had long been a problem. He was diabetic, for many years a heavy smoker and suffered a stroke in 1995.
Officially, after a relatively short break at the time, he resumed many of his duties using a wheelchair and stick.
His chosen successor, his half-brother Abdullah, is the head of the National Guard, the tribal army largely responsible for the kingdom’s internal security.
An austere and respected figure, Crown Prince Abdullah is untainted by corruption, while being regarded by many as less enthusiastically pro-American than King Fahd.
And among watchers of the opaque world of Saudi statecraft, Crown Prince Abdullah is thought already to have been de facto ruler for much of the past five years.
King Fahd’s rule saw Saudi Arabia ally itself closely with both the United Kingdom and the United States. Domestically, he had to contend both with the impact of falling oil revenues and an increasingly fragmented society.
King Fahd, who ascended the Saudi throne in 1982, was one of seven sons of the founder of Saudi Arabia, King Abdel-Aziz, and his favourite wife, Hassa.
He was the fourth of his siblings to be king. Two of his brothers lost power violently - one was deposed in a coup; the other was assassinated.
The 2005 coalition came to power on a wave of anger at Syria’s longstanding influence over Lebanon provoked by the killing of former PM Rafik Hariri. His supporters blamed the murder on Syria, although Damascus denied any involvement.
But subsequently, a long political stand-off between the new 14 March ruling coalition and the pro-Syrian opposition over the election of a new president culminated in violent clashes across the country in May 2008.
After a long series of unsuccessful talks and outbreaks of violence, the rival parties held reconciliation talks in the Qatari capital, Doha, which resulted in the formation of a national unity government, with the opposition getting 11 out of 27 ministerial posts.
MPs are elected through a confessional system - that is one which allows 11 of the country’s religious minorities a guaranteed fixed representation in parliament.
The 128-seat chamber is divided equally between Muslim and Christian communities, giving each 64 seats (even though the proportion of Christians in the overall population has declined since the system was put in place, and is now at an estimated 35-40%).
The system gives Sunni Muslims 27 seats and Shia Muslims the same number. The Druze get eight seats and Alawites two. On the Christian side, 34 seats are reserved for Maronites, 14 for Greek Orthodox, eight for Catholics, six for Armenians and two for other Christian minorities.
MPs are elected for four-year terms in 26 multi-seat constituencies. Lebanese men and women above 21 years of age have the right to vote, whether they are resident in Lebanon or not.
Although candidates compete against their co-religionists for a fixed numbers of seats in each constituency, electors from other confessional groups can vote for them too - a system designed to prevent candidates representing the interests only of their own group.
For example, the Baabda constituency has six seats, three for Maronite Christians, two for Shia Muslims and one for a Druze deputy - broadly reflecting the confessional make-up of the constituency. All voters can vote for six candidates and the winners will be the ones who pick up the most votes among their confessional group.

Book signings by a British matador have been cancelled over fears they would attract animal rights campaigners.
Waterstone’s has shelved Frank Evans’ book signings after receiving letters saying they would glamorise the “cruel, violent spectacle” of bullfighting.
Mr Evans, 67, from Salford, Greater Manchester, is thought to be the only Briton to achieve the status of matador, the profession’s top rank.
He was due to sign his autobiography in the Liverpool and Manchester branches.
He said he did not want to put shop staff in any danger

Blog：Immune setting
Oct 29
The researchers are targeting so called auto-immune diseases - diseases which arise when the immune system goes wrong and starts to attack the body’s own components.
The Bristol team’s work focuses on a group of proteins which have the effect of resetting control mechanisms, preventing the body’s own tissues from being damaged.
“We’ve discovered a molecule from an E. coli bacterium that seems to be able to change the way the immune system works - in a sense re-educating it.
“This provides an example of where vaccines may be used to turn off rather to turn on the immune system.”
The team is using just a transport component of the bacterium’s toxin molecule. Called ETxB, the component is separated off from the rest of the protein so there is no chance of a vaccine causing stomach upsets in patients.
Blog： Gene therapy
Oct 29
The team are hoping that a precise knowledge of the binding mechanism will help other scientists use deactivated cold viruses to carry gene therapy into diseased or damaged cells.
Many teams are working on therapies for cancer and lung diseases such as cystic fibrosis which use adenoviruses as the method of carrying their altered genes.
The limitations of “vaccines” for cold viruses are the methods of getting them to the cells concerned in the nose and throat.
The Common Cold Centre, based at the University of Wales in Cardiff, has conducted similar research on rhinoviruses, which cause between 30 and 40% of colds.
Toshiba and Lenovo have become the latest computer makers to recall laptop batteries made by Sony because of a potential fire risk.
Lenovo is recalling 500,000 batteries, while Toshiba is calling back 830,000.
China-based Lenovo said the problem affects ThinkPad laptops sold from February 2005, both under its own name and the IBM brand.
At Japan’s Toshiba, the recall involves its Dynabook, Qosmio, Satellite Portege and Tecra laptop models.
Following similar recalls by Dell and Sony, a total of seven million laptops worldwide have now been affected
