SHARE NICKELODEON MAGAZINE EYES FUTURE AS IT NOTES BIRTHDAY

Nickelodeon magazine, the humor magazine for kids, is celebrating its first birthday with an eye on the future.

The magazine asked 16 people - including a professor at New York's Fashion Institute of Technology and hairstylist Christophe - for their predictions for life in the year 2050.Said Christophe: "We will be able to grow hair at a hundred times its normal rate because of computer-assisted growth chambers."

The F.I.T. professor, Michael Renzulli, predicted temperature-controlled body suits.

Nickelodeon magazine also digs up future ideas from the past. A 1950 Popular Mechanics magazine predicted that by the year 2000, people would be eating candy made from recycled tableclothes and underwear.

The birthday issue also contains a recipe card for Slime-A-Birthday Cake. The ingredients include a box of vanilla pudding and some green food coloring for the "slime."

Nickelodeon magazine is published bimonthly.
