To prepare for the scariest night of the year, when folklore determines that grisly ghouls, witches, warlocks, bats, goblins and bogeymen will vie with vampires, evil kings, wicked ogres, French maids and ugly buglies, who come to roam the earth in search of the dead - or living - here are some super cool costume ideas and tips that you can work into your Halloween party plans to have the blast of your life!
Though Halloween night is typically celebrated by kids and teens, there are many adults who also love the excitement of dressing up in their spookiest best, be it the Evil dead characters or those straight out of the House of Wax movie, getting their thrills from giving the chills to someone else, when they aim to blend straight into the shadows of the night to...have a load of fun!!
So, have you got yourself your Halloween costume as yet? No? Well, what are you waiting for - Christmas?
If its ideas you've run out of - or even hard cash - that's no reason to worry about not having a great Halloween costume. Not when you can make your own with a dash of imagination and some sewing or crafting skills!
Costume idea no. 1 - So, if you're not scared of spooks you could dress up as one yourself and roam the streets with them for one eerie spine-chilling night of the year and have a blast while you scare the heebie jeebies out of folks on your street with only a sheet between you and the cruel world!
This is a great time to get the better of your friends and neighbors by catching them unawares and scaring them all of ten inches off of the ground! That's what a good Halloween costume should help you achieve, so don't go for anything that doesn't deliver on this absolute thrill!
People are at their wits end with many of them believing that ghosts and goblins are roaming the streets. So they will take no chances trying to determine if you are really a ghost or a human dressed as one and this is where the fun begins!
Costume Idea no. 2 - Babe Magnet: all you need are some cheap, small, lightweight plastic dolls, snazzy clothes, a slick hairstyle preferably gelled down for good effect and card-board cuts out of magnet shape, painted grey with red edges stuck randomly to the dolls you can sew or hot-glue on a sleeveless jacket (if you don't want to spoil your party clothes)
Costume Idea no. 3 - Giant Jelly Bean Bag: invest in some broad plastic wrap or find a large clear plastic bag you can slip into with cut-outs for your arms, legs and neck. Fill this with small, round colorful balloons to resemble jelly beans and scrunch up the plastic around your neck comfortably to get a fast and cheap Halloween costume.
Costume Idea no. 4 - Tramp or Tinker: Old, baggy, worn out clothes, scruffy hairstyle (backcomb your hair for an unruly look), big toe cardboard cut out painted in skin color and highighted with glitter to stick to the front of old shoes, lightweight pots and pans to hang from your shoulder and dark face make-up to go with the entire look. Voila! You can live up your fantasy of letting it all hang loose, cussing and asking for free hand-outs as it all goes with the 'person'ality of a tramp!
How innovative you can be with the above ideas further will determine the level of success you can enjoy when it comes to scaring your gang witless - but never for a moment believe that they are not expecting you to outwit them, so prepare for a good scare yourself!

Idiopathic Insomnia - How to Tell If You Have it and What You Must Do About it Now
Idiopathic insomnia refers to a lifelong insomnia which usually begins early in childhood and continues throughout the rest of adult life. Unlike other forms of insomnia, this condition does not result from stress, medical, and psychiatric disorders or other sleep related disorders. In fact, it is quite difficult to determine its cause and is generally associated with imbalance in the patient's body, although nothing can be said about the actual cause.
The common symptoms of idiopathic insomnia are more or less the same as those for general insomnia, for example, difficulty in falling asleep, unexplained and frequent awakenings, not being able to get enough sleep, daytime fatigue, poor concentration and mood swings. Since this type of insomnia continues throughout life, the patient suffers from the symptoms every night. Moreover, the cause behind this disorder cannot be tracked. The patient generally has no neurological, psychological or any other medical problem which can explain the insomnia. If the insomnia cannot be accounted for due to medications, stress and other normal causes for insomnia, it is most likely to be lifelong insomnia.
As per the sleep disorder statistics, idiopathic insomnia is a very rare kind of insomnia. 1% adults and 0.7% kids and teens are known to suffer from it. The disorder might have its roots in the genetic make-up as it is known to be hereditary. It affects men and women equally and only 9% of all insomnia patients.
This sleep disorder is hard to diagnose as it is not caused by factors responsible for other types of insomnia. The key to recognizing this disorder is in the fact that it usually starts early on in childhood, sometimes even during infancy. People with this sleep disorder feel normal despite the symptoms because they have been used to it since an early age and therefore do not consider seeking medical help.
If you feel that you are suffering from lifelong insomnia and obvious causes cannot explain it then it is advisable that you consult a doctor. Diagnostic tests like overnight sleep test and thyroid blood tests can give some cues. Treatment of idiopathic insomnia generally involves correcting your sleep patterns, using cognitive behavioral therapy by using relaxation techniques, and use of medications like hypnotics, anti-depressants and sleeping pills.
