...party? Not that I know of. It was a superhero party. They had jumped in a "superhero " bounce house, played " super games " wearing capes, had batman cake and then watched a video. He said no one hurt his feelings and no one was mean to him. He seemed perfectly fine when I picked him up. What video did they watch? Spiderman. (AHA!) Spiderman? The one with Toby McGuire -The one that ' s rated PG-13? I saw the movie when it came out a few years ago - it really wasn' t that scary...
...Okay, so perhaps my parental messages still need some fine-tuning. Charlie's mom got a call from the field and had a good laugh, confessing that Charlie's father had taken him and they had to leave after 15 minutes because Charlie was too scared to take his hands off his eyes.

There's something to be said for good plotting, and for living in mansions instead of garrets, and for not taking yourself too seriously. Literature may not be a democracy...
...Poultry veterinarians have been mapping U.S. commercial farms with handheld GPS tools (similar to the electronic navigational readers many people have in their cars) and entering the locations into large computerized databases for use in an emergency. They have even used the popular free software program Google Earth to fine-tune the positions of some chicken houses. That way, if the industry's testing program ever turns up evidence of H5N1 infection, officials will know exactly which flocks to sacrifice and where to draw the quarantine lines...
