This challenge ends on 19:00 UTC Sunday November 2, 2008.

That is Sunday noon EST, 11 am CST, 9 am PST, 7 pm in the UK, and Monday 8 am in New Zealand. And lest this sound strict, you know we would be pleased at any time to have your entry. We really aren't rule-oriented.

And, as a teaser for the week following, the challenge will be: Saturday / Sunday.
