lonnie

I will like to know of all the places to sign up to receive toy giveaways for my kids this christmas. because im out off work and tring to do the best i can with all the bill and rent

Answer
There are toy giveaways every year in our town. Check out organizations online like "Angel Tree" and "Toys for Tots" - I'm sure they will have information on how you can get on their lists. I always give to those organizations - I know what it felt like as a kid to not have anything for Christmas sometimes. I hope you can get in touch with them. Good luck and whatever happens, a Merry Christmas to you and your family. :)

Here is the Toys for Tots website - if you click on where it says "Request Toys" it will let you find a place to request in your area:

And here is information for the Angel Tree organization - you may want to get in contact with your local Salvation Army to find out more:

CA has outlawed toys in Happy Meals, so are they happier now?

GOZ2FAST

AZ still has em, come on over and get your toy :)

Answer
McDonald's is selling "Hope in a box" now! Apparently it has replaced the toy in the Happy meal.

As part of the campaign to stave off âChildhood Obesityâ, putting toys in happy meals is discouraged because supposedly toys in happy meals encourages kids to eat unhealthy foods. So McDonalds has replaced putting toys in happy meal boxes withâ¦wait for itâ¦HOPE! Thatâs right, hope in a box, in a happy meal box.

I saw this on a Regis and Kelly commercial, and thought it was one of the top toys for 2010, but when I watched the show today it wasn't there. Its a slide that has a car at the top. Kelly Ripa slid down the slide on the car in the show commercial. Does anyone know what toy I am talking about? I really want to get one for my son.

Where can I find the most popular gifts in other countries?

Bookworm74

I need to find out the most popular Christmas gifts in the following countries: Japan, China, Mexico and Russia. Any help will be appreciated. I need the most popular gifts of 2010. Websites will be most helpful. If the countries I have listed don't celebrate Christmas, please say what they do celebrate. Thanks!

Answer
I'm not sure I can answer the whole of your question, but I did find some interesting information that may help you. I did a google search for a better understanding of the holidays in the various counties. There is a site in the U.S. which shows the 'Dream Toys' - this originates in the U.K., and where people reside in a large city, you can expect that what is popular in the U.K. (for kids) would be popular in other countries in Europe. The site also has the most popular Christmas presents for the U.S., which would also likely translate to Mexico, again in the big cities. All sites I referenced are listed in the sources below.

Japan: The major religions in Japan are Buddhism and Shinto, so Christmas is more a commercial event. The main celebration revolves around Christmas eve and not Christmas day. In Japan it is common to give Christmas presents.

China: Only about one percent of people are Christians, so most people only know a few things about Christmas. Because of this, Christmas is only often celebrated in major cities such as Shanghai and Beijing. In these big cities there are Christmas Trees, lights and other decorations on the streets and in department stores. Santa Claus is called 'Shen Dan Lao Ren' and has grottos in shops like is Europe and America.

Mexico: Mexicans share many traditions with the Spanish. Their main Christmas celebration is called La Posada, which is a religious procession that reenacts the search for shelter by Joseph and Mary before the birth of Jesus. Mexican children receive gifts. On Christmas day they are blindfolded and taken to try and break a decorated clay piñata that dangles and swings at the end of a rope. Once the piñata has been broken, the children clamber to recover the candy that was inside the piñata. Those children who have been good also on January 6th receive a gift from the Three Wise Men. Mexicans attend a midnight mass service which is called la Misa Del Gallo or "the rooster's mass," and at the mass they sing lullabies to Jesus.

Russia: Russian Orthodox Christmas takes place on January 7th (following the Old Calendar this is the 25th of December) and the celebration lasts for six days. In the Orthodox tradition nothing is eaten or drunk on Christmas Eve until the first star appears in the sky. The star is symbolic of the great star that led the Magi to the newly born Christ. Once the first star has appeared in the sky, the festivities begin. Grandfather Frost is the Russian Santa Claus. He brings gifts to the children at New Year's, which is the most popular Russian holiday celebration. His grand-daughter, the "Snowmaiden," accompanies him to help distribute the gifts. They bring bags of candy for the children and Grandfather Frost listens to the girls and boys sing songs and recite poems. After this, he gives small Christmas gifts to the children.

I hope this helps!

How many people die a year from crininals in indiana due to guns?

best kids toys 2010 image

Kaleigh

??
help add on to this please. Corrections and add ons. Please... I have this report due Tuesday and I have to present this. Im con for gun control.

Hello, my name is Kaleigh Ray and I am against the resolution. Which is, currently in Indiana firearms do not need to be registered, and you do not need a permit to purchase one. You do need a permit to purchase a handgun.
There have been so many deaths due to guns, some accidental, some not. Even if it’s the one “who’s using the gun” it doesn’t matter. A lot of the excuses used are that it depends on the person who has the gun in his or her hand, but we wouldn’t have to worry if there were more laws against gun control. There will still be shootings, but why not take more charge and stop more deaths while we can?
Endangering children
-In 2010 Indiana had the 18th-highest rate of deaths from the use of guns among children and teens at age 19 and under. Having more laws from being able to purchase a hand gun freely helps prevent situations like this from happening.
-Over the years there have been a lot of incidents endangering children due to the use of guns. A lot of the accidents have occurred, from kids mistaking guns for toys. More than 500 children die annually from accidental gun shots. “Americans own 200 million firearms, and 35 percent of homes contain at least one gun. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention studied and found out that more than 1.7 million children live in homes with loaded and unlocked guns.” Those who own guns need to be more accountable for keeping them out of children and others hands.
-

High Rate of Gun related Crime
-“More than 30,000 U.S men, women, and children die each year from gunshot wounds, the highest homicide rate from guns in the world. Of those 30,000 deaths only about 1,500 are due to accidental shootings.”
-

More background checks
-Having more background checks will help us have more with security. We will still be able to use them, but will be more strict to who we sell them too.
is anyone nice enough to add more in my paragraphs && help correct?? :)

Answer
16 thousand of those deaths are due to suicide. No one killed another person in those. That leaves about 14 thousand deaths a year due to gun violence. Of those 14K deaths, 9 thousand were gang or drug related and most was black on black violence. Blacks are 13% of the population but are 48% of the inmates in jail for murder. Hispanics, 14% of the population, not counting illegals, make up another 22% of the population in jail for murder. So, 71% of violent murders are committed by 27% of the population. If you remove those ethnic groups from the mix, we have one of the lowest gun violence rates of any country, and the lowest of any country that guarantees that citizens can own firearms, both pistols and rifles.
Fact, over 800,000 known, and an estimated 1 million additional violent crimes were stopped by armed citizens. Doctors kill almost 80,000 a year from medical mistakes. Fact; Legal prescription drugs kill almost 200,000 people a year. Fact: you are 15 times more likely to be killed by a doctor than a gun and 40 times more likely to die from taking a prescription drug than by a gun. Watch the below video.
Are you against prescription drugs? Are you against doctors? do you think they should be banned? Car accidents kill more children year than guns, should they be banned?

How much will these Star Wars action figures be worth in the future?

Smarty Pan

I have been collecting Star Wars Vintage Collection (2010-2011) Star Wars action figures because the cards and figures are awesome. Some of these are already very popular and sell for way over retail prices. How much do you think these figures might be worth in 5 years if kept well and not opened.

Answer
The thing with collectibles is you simply never know. It depends on many factors, here are just a few:

- Units in series (units produced)
- Quality of product
- Demand (this fluctuates over time, in 40 years another 3 movies might come out, making these worth way way more at that time)
- Collectibility (do they come with accessories? toys with accessories are worth far more down the road, kids tend to lose them making complete units rare)

Also, 5 years isn't a timeframe to consider for value, if they're going to have value, you're looking minimum 10 years, but usually closer to 20+ (especially with Star Wars toys, which historically go up and down in price based on the current culture around the movies).

What are my kid's rights when their father passed away?

kristin

My children's (3 & 8) dad passed away September 2010. Our divorce was finalized just two months before this. We live in Louisiana and have already applied for social security. My question however, is that my children and his other daughter are legally heirs, so why is his family not letting them have their belongings? They told me they do not need an attorney and that they are putting everything he had at his house in storage. The do not consider me family anymore because of the divorce, but is that reason to punish my kids? They dont even want his belongings just their toys and clothes. Is this legal?

Answer
Oh, I'm sorry for their loss. ):

And despite the fact of them being the heirs to his estate (by next of kin), their belongings don't fall under any inheritance. Just like if someone died and I left my purse there, the family can't put my purse in storage. I would march over there and get their belongings.

And not to mention, but it isn't just toys and clothing, especially to young children. It may even be stuff their daddy bought for them which isn't replaceable, more importantly not everyone can afford to "just replace it." Money is tight for some people.

I just hope he left behind some money to care for the kids in lieu of child support.
