Luna Lovegood.(Submitted by Paul. There are those on staff who believe Harry Potter is real, so we'll let this one pass as newsworthy. )

Pumpkin carved with Marines symbols.

Drop and give me 20! (Submitted by Amber. Amber carved this one to celebrate her son's graduation from Marine Corp boot camp. As a 98 pound weakling who needed help lifting his pumpkin to carve it, I am impressed.)
