10/31 Consortium

Now in its second year, the Baton Rouge Halloween Parade benefits Our Lady of the Lake Children's Hospital, the Greater Baton Rouge Food Bank, and the Big Buddy Program?whose children receive costumes collected during the 10/31 Consortium club's costume drive. These costumed children march in the parade each year, in keeping with the organization's efforts to preserve the practice of trick-or-treating.

The parade follows a surprise theme each year, and community individuals and Krewes, who drive and march along a downtown route, contribute and construct colorful floats. The 10/31 Consortium organizes this annual parade in an effort to nurture community creativity and inspire local youth.

The Groupon Guide to...Woodworking Safety

Most people have worked with wood at some point, either in a grade-school shop class or while building a boat for a family in need of a boat. Next time you're cutting and drilling tree meat, follow these safety precautions:

? Eye protection is important, so look away whenever you're cutting wood with a big saw.
? Wear appropriate pants, which is just any pair that can't be easily penetrated by a drill bit.
? Never cut toward your exposed arms unless you're pretty sure skin is stronger than blade.
? Eat a big meal beforehand because, as somebody might have said, "you can't spell 'safety' without also having the letters to spell 'feast.'"
? Always be prepared for an emergency by having one of those dogs that carries a first-aid kit around its neck and is trained to run toward the sound of screams.
