"This is Halloween (Halloween, Halloween!)"

Trick-or-treat, history students. Monday's current events quiz is on schedule as usual...

• A Coast Guard plane carrying 2 and a Marine helicopter carrying 7crashed on Thursday. Rescue efforts continue...

• Somalia pirates are holding a yachting couple hostage. What is their motive? What do they want?

• Be sure to read about the possible election run-off boycott in Afghanistan.

• Another car bomb in the news this week, this time in Islamabad, Pakistan.

• Former tennis champ Andre Agassi admitted to using drugs throughout 1997.

I haven't decided what the bonus will be this week, but it will probably be about something that happens on Sunday that I haven't posted.

Monday, after the quiz, we will start a Power Point on the Five Pillars. We will finish it up on Tuesday Wednesday.

Hope everyone is having a safe and happy Halloween!
