Black and light are two terms that do not go together when the meaning is taken literally. However there is a whole genre of black light bulbs in the lighting market. They have several specialized applications.

The use of black light bulbs makes things glow in the dark. There are two basic types of black light bulbs. Black lights available in fluorescent lights produce 100% UV energy while black light bulbs only emit a faint purple light. Black light bulbs are a popular choice for Halloween decorations. Black lights in fluorescent tubes for black light effects are also very popular for this purpose.

Black light fluorescent lamps contain a special element known as a phosphor. Upon being activated, a fluorescent black light bulb emits its UV energy. this energy is also referred to as UVA energy. Black light or “near ultraviolet” energy ranges from 310 nanometers to 400 nanometers in the electromagnetic spectrum. The human eye can distinguish energy only between 400 to 700 nanometer wavelengths. It is these wavelengths that cause the phenomenon of fluorescence, making the lighting provided by these bulbs attractive. in the range of about 370 nanometers, the radiation enters the visible range to produce a small amount of bluish light.

The black light lamp has found many uses in industry and home use as well. Black light uses in the industrial scenario include inspection for cracks, leaks, and other flaws during manufacturing and quality control checks. used commercially, they have been found to be extrememly useful by cafes and night clubs for fluorescing costumes and decorations as well as for insect traps and psychedelic lighting. Another popular commercial use of black light bulbs is outdoor and indoor advertising, window displays, and theatrical and television scenery lighting.

Used by the police and other monitoring agencies, black lighting is used for identification and marking of objects, photocopy inspection, detection of counterfeit money and bank notes, petroleum geology, stamp examination, chemistry, embalming, luminous instrument panels.

Black light bulbs thus have varied applications that are both functional and ornamental.

Shift Switch: Magician’s assistant
My “shift” as magician David Seebach’s assistant didn’t go exactly as planned. my original goal was to get sawed in halves on stage, but because I am a tad too tall for the trick, Seebach levitated me instead. Now, I can’t shake the words of Grandmaster Flash’s “White Lines” out of my head … “get higher, baby, and don’t ever come down.”

Mother/Daughter Halloween Costume Ideas

What are some ideas of adult and baby costumes that can go together? Kinda like a couples theme..lol. (her dad refuses to dress up, lol) I was thinking Snow White/Dwarf (she looks a little like dopey

You could go as a butterfly, and your daughter as a Caterpillar. or you could go as Goldilocks and your daughter as a bear (but put a pink ribbon around one of the ears or something). you could also go as Cinderella, and she could be a mouse or a pumpkin, although i think a mouse is cuter. or maybe u could go in cat/kitten costumes. Like you could wear a ‘sexy’ costume (thinking playboy bunny type animal costume), and your daughter could wear a cute fluffy kitten costume-maybe she could wear mittens and be one of the three little kittens that lost their mittens? lol, i think your idea for matching costumes is really cute. Oh, and Toto is generally thought of as a boy, don’t know if this matters.
