Tonari no Sekikun
Tanari no Seki-kun is a manga and anime created by manga ka Tahuma by Monishige and directed by Yuji Mutoh, the story follows Yokoi, Kumi, and Seki-three classmates who sit next to each other. However, Seki is usually creating elaborate setups on his desk, even though Kumi tries to stop him, and she usually ends up distracting herself, but the teachers don't notice. Overall, I give this a 9.5 out of 10. I recommend you watch it if you like anime, but some you can finish under 10 minutes.

Frozen Movie Review
By La'Shanae L.
"Frozen" is a family movie that everyone should see. The movie consists of Anna-the sister of Elsa-going on an adventure to find her sister. On her journey she meets a friendly gut named Kristoff, and a hilarious snowman named Olaf. It has many different songs to sing along with. The directors are Chris Buck, and Jennifer Lee. "Frozen" is rated PG. Elsa has magical ice powers. Indina Menzel blows you away with her solo "Let It Go". Kristen Nails her character Anna with her amazing acting skills. The same for Josh Glad as Olaf, and Johnathan Groff as Kristoff. Some people call it a musical extravaganza . To me "Frozen" is a beautifully written movie with fun characters.

Vocaloid By Niara R.
Vocaloid (sometimes stylized as VOCALOID) is a Japanese singing synthesizer program. It was developed by the Yamaha Corporation, a company that makes musical instruments, electronics, and sporting equipment. To make a song, you must type in lyrics and melody. You can change the pronunciation, add effects, and change the tone of voice. The first Vocaloids, Leon and Lola, were released in 2004. They were available only in English. Later, made by Crypton Future Media, were the first Japanese Vocaloids, KAITO and MEIKO. In Vocaloid 3, there has been the addition of the languages Spanish (Bruno, Clara, and Maika), Chinese (Luo Tianyi, and Yan He), Korean (SeeU), and Catalan (Ona). Vocaloids have paired up with Japanese singing groups such as Livetune ( Tell your World by Hatsune Miku ) and Supercell.
The technology for Vocaloid is called “Concatenative synthesis”; taking short samples of music and re-composing them. You can also add effects like vibrato. The technology was initally called “Frequency-domain Singing Articulation Splicing and shaping” (周波数ドメイン歌唱アーティキュレーション接続法 Shūhasū-domain Kashō Articulation Setsuzoku-hō), but Yamaha no longer uses this name. Vocaloids cannot replicate expressions like shouting, but Appends might be able to do something similar.
There are three main parts to the Vocaloid 2 system. First, the Score Editor. It has a piano roll style. It is used to insert notes, lyrics, and expressions. Second is the Singer Library. The Singer Library is a database of vocal segments from real people. It is used to create the voice of the Vocaloid. Some Vocaloids have an English and Japanese library. Since the American/English people pronounce things differently than the Japanese, it is recommended you do not use a Japanese Vocaloid to sing English lyrics.Third is the Synthesis Engine. It receives score information from the score editor, adjusts pitch and timbre (tone quality) and splices them to create singing voices.
Vocaloid’s success is owed mostly to Hatsune Miku, Yamaha’s most popular Vocaloid created by Crypton Future Media. Nico Nico Douga, a Japanese video sharing website similar to YouTube, helped with that. A user of the program and an artist made a video depicting a super-deformed (chibi) version of her waving a leek ( negi in Japanese ) singing a Finnish song titled levan Polkka. This video is very popular, I believe it started a trend called the “Item War”. All of the main Vocaloids have an item, decided by the fans. Hatsune Miku’s is a leek, or a Welsh Onion, as decided after this video. Another popular Vocaloid product is the Story of evil series, which was so popular it got it’s own manga, books, and theatre productions. Hatsune Miku has also influenced the character design of the original character Black Rock Shooter. This character was made popular by the song of the same name, sung by Hatsune Miku. Vocaloid also has great influence on the freeware program UTAU, which I may write about later. There is also a freeware program MikuMikuDance ( often shortened to MMD ) where you can make 3D animated videos using Vocaloid and Utau characters, even make your own custom models.

SPOILERS!!!
During the games set in the jungle with a saltwater lake, Katniss and Peeta join up with two other previous victors: Finnick Odair, a 24-year-old man who survived the games at the age of 14, and Mags, Finnick's 80-year-old mentor mentor, both from district 4. The party encounters poisonous fog in which Peeta becomes injured and cannot walk. mags sacrifices herself in order to save Peeta, and she dies in the poisonous fog. After Mags' death, Katniss, Peeta and Finnick join forces with Johanna Mason-a sarcastic and often cruel victor from district 7, Beetee, and Wiress-an older couple from district 3 who are said to be "exceptionally smart". Wiress soon proves her genius by revealing to Katniss that the arena is arranged like a clock, with all of the arena's disasters occurring on a timed chart. After Wiress is killed, Katniss learns Beetee's plan to harness lightning in order to electrocute Brutus and Enobaria, the two remaining carees tributes from district 2. In the final chapters, Katniss instead directs the lightning at the forcefield that contains the arena, thereby destroying it and resulting in her temporary paralysis
When Katniss wakes up, she is being transported to district 13, joined by Finnick, Beetee, and her mentor-Haymitch Abernathy. She lears that Peeta, Enobaria, and Johanna have been captured by the capitol, and is informed that there had been a plan among half of the contestants to break out of the arena. Beetee had been attempting to destroy the force field in the same way that she did. The book ends when katniss' best friend-Gale-comes to visit her and informs her that-though her family made it out in time- district 12 had been bombed and destroyed.

Minecraft
by Jacob B.
Minecraft is a game that allows you to build or do almost everything else you want. If you play in survival mode, you have to collect items to build. You start out with nothing and you make everything from scratch. You build a house, mine for precious ores, and defend yourself from stuff that can kill you. If you spawn in creative mode, you then get everything for free. Although Minecraft costs $26.95, it is really worth it.

Goodbye Charlie
Those of you who watch Disney Channel probably know a show called "Good Luck Charlie." "Good Luck Charlie" is a show about a growing family that is adjusting to a new addition of their family, Charlotte (nicknamed Charlie). There is PJ, the oldest, Teddy, the middle child, and Gabe the youngest until Charlie came along. As the family adjusts to their new addition they also have to live the regular normal life everyone has to. Good Luck Charlie is mostly comedy but sometimes it can be sad and emotional. I know what you're thinking. This show sometimes it can be sad and emotional. I know what you're thinking. This show sounds pretty interesting I think I'll watch it sometime. Well guess what? The series is over! Their final episode was called "Goodbye Charlie." In my opinion, I am very disappointed in Disney for deleting this TV series. It was honestly was one of the best series Disney has ever had. I think they should have removed some of the more boring shows on Disney Channel. Disney Channel has already removed the good shows from earlier 2000's like "That's So Raven" and "Kim Possible." It's just pure disappointed. Even though we are sad you are leaving "Good Luck Charlie," you will always be in our hearts (especially since reruns come on every second on Disney Channel).

Pokeball Theory
By Zachary B.
For all you Pokemon fans, have you ever wondered how a pokemon stays in its pokeball? If you have, this article will probably help you choose a way.
Some people believe that a pokeball has mirrors, and when the pokemon is put in its pokeball in its light form, it reflects it around, keeping it in its light form, and when released it regains its solid form. Simply, it shrinks down and is put in the perfect environment for it to live in. Or it teleports them to somewhere else and when the Pokeball is opened it teleports them back. It's very hard to choose one theory, but I'm sure you'll find another.
-Light Reflected
-Shrink Down
-Teleports to a Different Place

End to Shake it Up

The Disney Channel series, Shake it Up, is ending after only 78 episodes. In the final episode, Cee , Rocky and Tinka attend a charity fashion show. CeCe wears humongous heels and when they start to dance she falls off the stage. Oh, no! Cece wakes up in the hospital and, suffering from memory loss, she forgets her past friend Rocky. The final episode airs on November 10. The big finale left fans wondering why the show was cancelled. Shake It Up was the #1 show on Disney Channel for a while. Bella Throne posted this on her twitter page at 8:55: "Our last day on set, everyone cried and hugged." So there you have it, a show loved by many has come to an end. I will go back and watch many of the episodes. Do you think it was too early?
Gogo Pillow Review
by Niara R.
The GoGo Pillow is a multifunctional pillow. It's main purpose is being a tablet "case." Doing this, it works pretty well and never falls out, but the first time I had some trouble getting it in, since it comes with with no instructions. As a pillow, it's comfortable and can take awhile to get adjusted. It also works as a neck pillow for long road trips or airplane flights. My favorite feature is in the backpack. You may notice on top of it. It unzips to reveal a compartment to put in your tablet. On the back, there are also straps so you can carry it on your back. Overall, the GoGo Pillow is a handy product and great for travel.
5 Years of No Shampoo by Brezeil H.
We all know and love that amazing, squishy feeling about liquid shampoo. What if you went 5 years without it? Would you feel dirty or even filthy? Jacquelyn says that her hair is less greasy, and a better color since she stopped using shampoo. Get this, she stopped using shampoo because it was better for the environment and once she tried organic shampoo she realized that it was uber expensive. She settled for using vinegar and baking soda as shampoo, but she was unsatisfied with the results, so she just rinshed with water. Bryers says that everyone should stop using shampoo or at least know what's in it. What do you think?

Unlike Vocaloid, it is a freeware program, meaning it does not cost money, while Crypton Future Media's Hatsune Miku is $175. Also unlike Vocaloid, they do not have English voicebanks since they are meant to sing in Japanese program, so I don't recommend downloading it unless you know how to read Kanji.
Utau was first made popular when the creator of Kasane Teto announced her as a Vocaloid, although it was just an April Fool's Joke, since she was already a Utau.
Did you know Utau's Momo Momone sang the song Nyanyanyanyanyanyanya?! It was made popular in the viral video, "Nyan Cat".
Did you know there is a radio program dedicated to only Vocaloid & Utau Music?

The M0st Paid Super Hero
By Cureha M.
Spiderman, Superman, Ironman, and all of those other "mans" are all great superheros, but there's only one who gets paid the most. Batman, or the Dark Night, is the most grossed superhero movie series in the U.S. The top biggest grossing film (The Dark Night) is placed number 4 in the top grossing films of the U.S.A., right behind The Avengers. The Dark Night has made $533,316,061 in the U.S. Box office. Also marked behind that is number 7, The Dark Night Rises, which is the sequel to The Dark Night. The Dark Night Rises made $448,130,642. Of course, both of these movies made much more money worldwide and both of these movies combined made $2,088,997,543! From the first Batman to Batman Forever, to The Dark Night Rises, Batman is currently the most paid Superhero!

Best Song Ever
By La'shanae L.
What do you think of the song "Best Song Ever" by One Direction? Here are what some people said:
"I really like the music video and how the One Direction singers are disguised as other people."
"In a way, the music video is funny when they destroyed everything."
"I think the lyrics to the song are meaningful and fun. You can dance and sing to them."
If you haven't heard the song, you should listen to it. Any website that you get your music from will have it. I hope to see you singing the song!

Later, he gets another toast message from his grandpa saying he is coming, but not to tell his parents. Meanwhile, the Weavers are having a wedding for Larry and Jack, because in their planet they don't have weddings, but the wedding gets interrupted by a phone call from Dick saying his grandpa is coming. So they rush home to find Larry's dad. Larry's dad told Larry that the mission is over and must return home. Larry sticks up to his father and says he had made new friends here and will not leave. Larry's father said in anger, "OK, but I will be back!" Then he left with his alien army and the Weavers and all of the aliens in the neighborhood was happy. also Reggie breaks up with his girlfriend to be with Amber and at the end of the show the lean in for a kiss and Amber said, "This will be an interesting summer."

My Little Pony Favorites Collection Review by Niara R.
I’m going to do a review on the My Little Pony Friendship is Magic Favorites Collection. The set includes: Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Trixie Lulamoon, DJ Pon-3, Lemony Gem, and Flower Wishes. The set also features Nightmare Moon.
Let’s start with Nightmare Moon. She is an alicorn( Pegasus combined with a Unicorn ) with a black coat and blue accessories. Her cutie mark is a blue glitter covered moon with purple painted around it. Her necklace also has a moon on it. Her eyes are blue-ish green and she is wearing purple eyeshadow. She has a purple mane and tail. She is in a walking pose. She is the first My Little Pony villain.
Next is Rainbow Dash. She is a blue pegasus with magenta eyes and no eyeshadow. Her cutie mark is a rainbow in the shape of a lightning bolt with a cloud covered in glitter. Her mane and tail are rainbow colored. She is in a static pose. In the tv series she is the only pony who can perform the sonic rainboom.
Next is Pinkie Pie. She loves to throw parties and make people happy. Pinkie is an earth pony ( a pony without a horn or wings ) with a light pink coat and light blue eyes without eyeshadow. Her cutie mark is two blue balloons and one yellow one covered in glitter. Her mane and tail are dark pink. She is in static pose.
Now Trixie Lulamoon. She is a unicorn with a light blue coat and magenta eyes and no eyeshadow.Her cutie mark is a light blue moon with stars and a wand covered in glitter. Her mane is light blue and white and so is her tail. She is in a static pose. She is Twilight Sparkle’s enemy(but she’s not really a villain. )
Next DJ Pon- 3 (Vinyl Scratch). She is a unicorn with a white coat. She’s wearing purple sunglasses. Her cutie mark is a black glitter covered music note. Vinyl has a light and dark blue mane and tail. She’s in a walking pose.
Next is Lemony Gem. She is a yellow unicorn with blue eyes and light blue eyeshadow. Her cutie mark is three blue diamonds covered in glitter. She has a blue and light blue mane and tail. She’s in a walking pose.
Now Flower Wishes. She’s a pink earth pony with green eyes. Her cutie mark is two daisies covered in glitter. Flower has a light green and light yellow green mane and tail. She is in a static pose.
Overall, this is a great toy. Everything is painted very neatly and has no problems. I had no problems standing them up. The set also comes with a booklet of all of the products.

I am going to view the Novi Stars doll Ari Roma. It is made by MGA Entertainment (They made the Bratz dolls too). Novi Stars are originally about four friends from the planet Novi (but their group is probably still growing).
The package is mostly black and green and has a picture of heron the side. There's information about her on the back and the handle turns into a headband. I think that's a nice touch.
Ari Rma is a solid purple (although the doll's body is covered in purple sparkes). She has three purple spots above her eyes and long, sparkly, blue eyelashes. Hmm, how can I say this..." It's a little hard to describe the outside... Let's see how I do. She is wearing a blue denim short jumper/purple ankle boots/a yellow clear jacket/a multi-colored (Yellow, orange, purple) necklace, a belt with a purple and blue star on it, and a silver bracelet. She has purple and light purple curly hair that's put into puffs, star antennae, a clear bubble helmet, an she is scented.
Although, it is a nice product it does have some problems. The Novi Stars company is making clothes, so you can change your doll's clothes, but I tried and it is veryhard to get the clothes off of her, but maybe it's just me. Also it's hard to put her necklace back on. I do, though like some things about the doll. Her bubble helmet is removable and as I said before, she's scented. I like her eyelashes and eyes, and she comes with a dolls stand.
I will also tell you about the character. She is 300 Eons old/bubbly and caring/has a pet named O2, and her favorite earth food is pizza. She doesn't get hates, and wants to learn how to breathe earth air.
(P.S. If you want to find out more about the character, go to http://www.novistars.com/ )

Open a Book
By Breziel H.
There are many benefits of reading a book instead of watching TV. TV can be bad physically, mentally, and socially. First of all, television can turn your brain to a big pile of mush! Television is usually filled with hidden subliminal messages with things that even young kids may repeat or see. TV can also socially harm you because the things you say from television can hurt other people's feelings. It can make you anti-social because you can get "glued to the TV". So if you are thinking about watching TV for hours, read a good book instead!

Famous Youtubers Part: 2
By Landen A.
TheBajanCanadian-a Minecraft video uploader, who is flat out hilarious. Paired up with his life long partner, Jerome (Youtube name is jeromeASF; Minecraft name is Hacksourse), they make a perfect pair. Currently he is doing his Hunger Games series, which is on episode 129, and his Just Jump parkour map, which is on episode thirteen. I highly recommend him.
SkyDoesMinecraft-a very funny Minecraft uploader. He does videos with other youtubers that also play Minecraft. The funniest punchline that all of his subscribers know is that he constantly calls gold "butter" so everything gold is now called butter (ex. butter sword, butter apple, and butter ingot).
OneDirection-It's a channel where One Direction's music videos are uploaded. Enough said.
Tobuscus-paragraph intro of darkness, then redness, then whiteness. Tobuscus is Toby Turners vlog channel that also includes his hot symphonies, his literal trailers, and much more. Toby has 2 other channels, Toby Turner and Toby Games, all very popular.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Third Wheel
by Zariyah R.
Have you ever read Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Third Wheel? Well, I have and it is not that bad. In the beginning of the book Greg starts to talk about how his life as a baby is better than his life now. In the beginning of the book, Greg talks about the time he was in his mom's belly and how it was so warm inside. He also talks about how now he sometimes tries to remake the moment when he's in the bathtub by getting warm, which is hard because he has no (and I mean NO) privacy. Also, when Greg was young, almost all of his things were hand-me-downs from Rodrick, his older brother. And when Greg was born, his family lived in a small apartment and since Roderick wouldn't give up his crib, he had to sleep in the top drawer. When he found out his mom was going to have another baby, he used a microphone attached to some headphones to tell the new baby the rules. When Greg was born, his mom put him in front of the TV for one hour a day watching a smart baby show because she read in a magazine that doing that would make him smarter. Now that Greg is older, his uncle said that he needed somewhere to stay until he gets back on his feet... At Greg's dad's new job it's take your child to work day, which for Greg was not that fun because all that Greg got to do was sit and watch his dad type almost all day long.
Then he (Greg) said that he was hungry, so his dad gave him some money to go get a snack. He came back with some chips and ate so loudly that his dad sent him somewhere else so that he could finish his work.
Greg's dad went home without him and came back the next day to pick him up. Since there is a Valentine's Day dance coming up at Greg's school, he is looking for a date and so far almost every girl in school has shot him down except for the girls he either didn't ask or the ones that are already taken. Greg asked Rowley to be his wing man and Rowley said that a girl just got dumped and that he convinced her to go to the dance in a group with her, Rowley, and Greg.
When the day of the dance arrived, Rowley's dad came and picked up Rowley, Greg, and the girl that they were taking. But a few minutes after they came, old people came to the gym and said they had booked the gym for their meeting, so they got half and the old people got the other half.
When the dance was almost over, Greg asked the girl if she wanted to dance, but since Greg didn't know how, it was awkward. When Greg got home, his uncle who had won the lottery paid back Greg's dad and left.

And when Greg was born, his family lived in a small apartment and since Roderick wouldn't give up his crib, he had to sleep in the top drawer. When he found out his mom was going to have another baby, he used a microphone attached to some headphones to tell the new baby the rules. When Greg was born, his mom put him in front of the TV for one hour a day watching a smart baby show because she read in a magazine that doing that would make him smarter. Now that Greg is older, his uncle said that he needed somewhere to stay until he gets back on his feet... At Greg's dad's new job it's take your child to work day, which for Greg was not that fun because all that Greg got to do was sit and watch his dad type almost all day long.
Then he (Greg) said that he was hungry, so his dad gave him some money to go get a snack. He came back with some chips and ate so loudly that his dad sent him somewhere else so that he could finish his work.
Greg's dad went home without him and came back the next day to pick him up. Since there is a Valentine's Day dance coming up at Greg's school, he is looking for a date and so far almost every girl in school has shot him down except for the girls he either didn't ask or the ones that are already taken. Greg asked Rowley to be his wing man and Rowley said that a girl just got dumped and that he convinced her to go to the dance in a group with her, Rowley, and Greg.
When the day of the dance arrived, Rowley's dad came and picked up Rowley, Greg, and the girl that they were taking. But a few minutes after they came, old people came to the gym and said they had booked the gym for their meeting, so they got half and the old people got the other half.
When the dance was almost over, Greg asked the girl if she wanted to dance, but since Greg didn't know how, it was awkward. When Greg got home, his uncle who had won the lottery paid back Greg's dad and left.

Book Review: Nightmare Hour By Jacob Wallace
You ready for a scare? Nightmare Hour is a short story collection by the man R. L. Stine himself. Be ready for stories with aliens, magic, were-wolfs, body-switching, and...CLOWNS, just to name a few. The book is 136 pages long, which will take you a very short time to read. Along with the stories, Stine tells the inspiration behind each story.
Now for the stories themselves: the first one, "Pumpkinhead", is a story about a boy with an angry brother and a friend who likes the angry brother, who visit a pumpkin patch with ‘overgrowing’ results. Next is "Alien Candy", a story about a boy who joins the Alien club, which turns into ‘sweet’ terror. Next is "The Most Evil Sorcerer", a story about a peasant named Ned who ends up a sorcerer’s helper, with a ‘splatterific’ ending. Enter "Nightmare Inn," where the building is crummy and the manager is filled with ‘fury’. "I’m Not Martin" is a story about how a boy learns that being near a kid named Martin in the hospital makes for a ‘cut-up’ conversation.
"The Black Mask" is a tale of attempted heroism using a so-called “future seeing mask”, which ends up with a ‘smash’ of an ending. "Afraid of Clowns" is a story about the truth behind clowns, but beware: it may ‘rob you’ of your childhood. Next, "The Dead Body" is about a wimpy boy who tries to stand-up to his tormentors using a fake body, but ends up finding a ‘ghostly’ revelation. "Make Me a Witch" is a story about a girl’s determination to be a witch, which requires a ‘small’ sacrifice. Finally, "The Ghostly Stare" is a ‘skin-chilling’ story about a danger of stares, and the danger of going in a graveyard at dark. Overall, the book is well written and pretty creepy, with plenty of entertainment value, but not worth $16.99, so you should just get it from a library.

Game Review: Black Ops
By Xavier
Black Ops 2 easily the most anticipated game of the year. The second installment of the Call Of Duty: Black Ops franchise was the most pre-ordered game of all time. This article will explain why.
Black Ops 2 has 3 main models like the original Black Ops: Campaign, Mulitiplayer, and Zombies. In campaign you mainly play as David Mason, son of the main character in Black Ops, Alex Mason. In the story, his father leads a rescue mission to find Sgt. Woods and their way off the island where Woods is held, and Alex encounters the main protagonist, Raul Menendez, and appears to kill him later in the game. But in 2025, he comes back raising a global revoulution, and David Mason must stop him from controlling the world.
The campaign has many diffrences between all other Call of Duty games. The most noticeable difference is the option to decide the story and to choosing an ending. Also, you now can choose your badout, unlike in other Call of Duty games, and there are now S.O.C.M. missions that you can choose to go on that also change the story line.
Now on to Multiplayer, the biggest reason many get the game. In Multiplayer, there are several diffrent modes. Modes include team deathmatch, free-for-all, hardpoint, and multi-teams deathmatch. The first mode of it's kind in Call of Duty, allowing 3 on 3 on 3 free-for-all matches, and the custom class system has changed. Instead of being forced to have 2 guns, a lethal and tactical, a deathstreak, and perks, you apply costs one credit.
Now, lastly, zombies. This is the old favorite mode of many players.This mode allows solo or co-operative battle against the undead horde. The goal is usually to survive as long as possible, but this time there is a new mode called tranzit. In this mode, you and up to 3 others ride around on a bus driven by a robot with no arms, fighting undead hordes, wave after wave, trying to accomplish the task. You can collect parts to make machines, upgrade the busy, and many more awesome features.
The game is easily one of the best games of the year and has a fighting chance at winning the makers of the game, Treyarch, another game of the year award.

Red Dawn Review
By Haley C.
I went and saw Red Dawn on Thanksgiving day and it is my favorite movie! It is the remake of the 1984 movie, Red Dawn. The remake is about the Koreans coming over to America and trying to take over. Five teenagers called the "Wolverines" are now trying to save everyone in town. Along the way, they meet new people and they have some unexpected conflicts. I recommend this movie to anyone who likes LOTS of action and anticipation.

Breaking Dawn Review
by Taylor D.
Breakin Dawn is a amazing story with action and romance. Bill Condon, the director, found the perfect way to make a movie that was faifthful to the book, and also have its own twist. Every second I watched the movie left me breathless and awestruck. I cannot always find that a movie would stay true to its book counter part, but I was surprised to find out that this one did. This movie was by far the best one yet in the Twilight saga. I guarantee that you will not be disappointed!

Nintendo Land By Jeremy C
Nintendo Land is a fun game to play solo or with a family member. It has fun solo attractions for solo attraction Yoshi’s fruit cart, Octopus dance, Donkey Kong Crash Course, Tamara Ninja Castle, Captain Falcon’s Twister Race, and the last solo attraction is Balloon Trip Breeze. For the battle section is Mario Chase, Luigi Ghost Mansion, and the last battle attraction is Animal Crossing Sweet Day. For the team up attraction, there is the Legend of Zelda Battle Quest, Pikmin Adventures, and the last team up is Metriod Blast.
In yoshi’s fruit cart you have to look at the screen to see where the fruit is, but you can’t see the fruit on the gamepad so you have to switch back and look over and over again. You must draw the line from the star to the exit.
The next game is the Octopus Game and with that game you have to use the controls to move the arms to the person on the TV. This game is very fun; it’s kind of like a dancing game and it’s really hard because if you mess up and all your hearts go out, the octopus will eat you. Donkey Kong Crash Course is a game where you have to tilt the game pad to get to the exit. But one mistake can mess that up.
Tamara’s Ninja Castle is a game where you have to slide ninja darts at the ninjas, but the tricky part is you have to aim with the game pad. In Captain Falcon’s Twister Races you have to move the game pad left and right. In Balloon Trip Breeze you have to get your mii to a landing platform, but watch out for tricky enemies.
In Mario Chase, all the toads must chase and tackle him down. If they don’t, the toads lose. In Luigi Ghost Mansion there is a ghost chasing around the Mario and Luis. They they must shine their light on the ghost, but they can’t see the ghost. In Animal Crossing Sweet Day, the gatekeepers are trying to get you, but you're trying to collect as much candy as you can.
In the Legend of Zelda Battle Quest, the game pad will shoot arrows to kill enemies and the remotes will act as swords. In Pikmin Adventure, the game pad plays as Captain Oliver with mini pikmin and the others will just play as pikmin who shake to attack. In Meteoriod Battle Blast, the game pad plays as the air ship and the others have to aim to shoot enemies.

Minecraft Vs Roblox
By Landen A.
Minecraft
Minecraft is a sandbox building world where you spawn in a world with nothing and have to gather resources. The first main object is to gather resources and build a house before the night comes and monsters come out. The monsters include spiders, zombies, skeletons with bow and arrows, the ionic creeper that explodes when you get too close to it, and much more dangerous things! Then you craft a pick-axe and go mining. Look out for coal, iron, redstone, gold, and hopefully diamonds. The game is almost endless, until you get bored and tired of creepers blowing up your stuff and then end up throwing your computer out the window. You pause for a minute and realize you just made a big mistake. Minecraft is fun, exiting, stressing, and a creative game. I think people should go out and buy this game.

Angry Birds Space
By Shane P. & Dylan D.
CRASH! SMASH! BOOM!! If you you loved the Regular Angry Birds, Angry Birds Seasons, & Angry Birds Rio, all made by the company Rovio, then you'll love this. The Angry Birds are going to SPACE?!?! When a mysterious wormhole appears in the sky over Angry Birds Island, a bird made of pure ice falls out with an "all powerful" eggstroid. The other birds notice the ice bird but then an arm comes out of the wormhole and grabs a chunk of earth. Not only is the eggstroid on it but, THE BIRDS' EGGS ARE ON IT, TOO!! The birds launch into space, but inside the wormhole, they are given new superpowers! Now that they are powered up they are ready to fight some space pigs, which are modeled after the pigs on the island.
The red bird used to get a small power boost, but now it gets a little more. Just don't use this little wimps for bigger obstacles, like rock. Save that for his big brother.
The big brother bird is a way more powerful version of the regular red bird, and can destroy a TON of stuff if you use its power boost. You can even destory several layers of rock with just one of those bad boys!
The purple bird, previoulsy the yellow bird, gets a speed boost when you tap the screen (WHERE YOU WANT IT TO GO), which is helpful when destroy
The game so far has 5 worlds (one world is exclusive for certain smart phones and tablets). They are Pig Bang, Cold Cuts, Fry Me To The Moon, Danger Zone (the exclusive one [You have to buy Danger Zone levels 2-30 for $0.99]), & Eggstroids. The first 4 worlds are like any world, destroy the pigs. At the end of Pig Bang, Cold Cuts, & Danger Zone (After you complete the first 29 levels) you have to fight a boss battle the King Pig. At the end of Fry Me To The Moon, instead of the King Pig, you have to fight the Grandpa Pig. Fry Me To The Moon Has moving targets & play the game each day to get a free Space Eagle. Eggstroids is sort of like the Golden Eggs in the Regular Angry Birds. You can even connect to Facebook, Twitter, & Weibo. There is even more cool stuff but you will have to get the app to find out more. Get it TODAY!

Arietty
By Piper W.
Arietty is a thrilling movie about a spuky young borrower. This movie was made after the book The Borrower. The movie tells the story of a young boy named Sean to comes to his mother's home to spend the week before his surgery in a quiet place. This movie is about overcoming differences and I would rate it five stars out of five.

Mine Craft Review
by Jacob W. Mine Craft, a computer game, is the most successful game on the P.C. In single player mode, you start off alone in a new world. You need to find resources to build a home. You need to break the tree with your hands to build wood. Then you can make wood planks out of the workbench to build sticks and tools. You finish building your house and need coal for torches. As soon as it gets dark, you walk into a cave and need coal for torches. You walk deeper and deeper until you hear a noise. You stop. You hear another noise. That's when you run farther and fall down a hole. The room is lit up with lava. You search for a way out in the dark when you see a movement in the dark. You then realize... you're not alone. The game has a kind of feeling throughout the game in all modes. It has great gameplay and deserves a 10 out of 10 star rating.

The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
"The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time" video game series can be considered one of the most popular games of all time. It's so popular, it has been recreated with new and exciting features.

It has awesome 3D graphics, and the circle pad on the handheld system is a 360 degree gyro which allows Link to do his signature spin attack.

Howl-O-Scream
Somewhere in the garden, there's so much you will find. The only the thing you have to lose is a little of your mind. Keep that in your head as you travel through Busch Gardens after 6:00 fear grows inside of you, even though you convince your friends otherwise. As you take your first step through the ripped curtains or rubber flaps into the first (and maybe last) haunted house of the day, your skin grows cold. Your hair rises from the back of your neck. The tension anxiously grows as you await your first scare. What will it look like? Then you realize you can't see. That only makes the effect deeper. As you venture further you begin to scream. The shrieks of terror fill your ears. You soon become one of them. But remember... that all occurred in under one minute. This year's theme is Zombies in the Garden. Try not to scream...
Movie Report: Dolphin Tale
It is a movie about a dolphin named Winter who lost her tail. Alcon Entertainment sponsors Dolphin Tale. The movie is inspired by an amazing true story of a very brave dolphin and some other helping strangers who wanted to save it's life. Swimming freely, a dolphin is caught in a crab trap and severely damages her tail. She is saved and moved to the Clearwater Marine Hospital where she is named Winter. It would take lots of effort and a very big miracle to help her and put interest on others. PLEASE WATCH THE MOVIE!
The Cheesecake Factory in VA Beach By Jazzmyn C.
The Cheesecake Factory gave me a great experience. My beverage was lemonade, but it was sprinkled with sugar around the edge of the cup, which made my mouth water for my appetizer. I had the fried macaroni and cheese. It was a perfect mixture of cheesy and gooey with crunchy and oily. The main course was a mushroom and Swiss glamburger. It was very hard to finish, because I got to that stage where it was so good it makes you not want to eat it anymore. Our server, Chelsea, was just delightful. She helped us in any way she possibly could. For this restaurant, I give it 4.5 stars out of 5.
The Search for Wondla
By Piper W.
The Search for Wondla is an amazing book about an eleven year old girl, Eva-Nine. Eva-Nine believes that she is on Earth, but is on the planet of Orbona, running and hiding from Besteel the Huntsman. She's doing all of this while searching for the rest of the human race and making lifelong friends, especially Rovender Kitt, the lanky blue creature, and a water bear named Otto. She believes technology is the solution to everything, but finds out otherwise on her journey. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading science fiction.

The SGC Middle School "Back to School Dance" was awesome!!!!
It really made me feel better about coming back to school. I'm finally used to the schedule and I got a chance to catch up with my friends. Even though the dance was hot, the music was HOTTER! Everybody was dancing and having an amazing time. I'm so glad I went and I'm pretty sure everyone else was, too.
The timely dance was just what we needed to really get settled in for the new school year.
