Spy School Series by Kueyoung Kim
Spy School, Spy Camp, and newly released, Evil Spy School, are three novels by amazing author Stuart Gibbs.
Spy School introduces the main math genius Ben Ripley, into Spy School, where everybody (almost) thinks he built an epic hacking device, including a super evil organization. Did I mention there’s a mole inside Spy School, which may or may not be the hot girl Ben has a epic crush on?
Spy Camp takes the adventure outside, with more evil moles, the hot girl from book one, and her grandfather.
In Evil Spy School, Agent Ripley gets expelled from Spy School for saving hundreds of lives. Then he gets an offer to join evil spy school, where he is the GOOD mole. Oh yeah, there’s another hot girl there too. What’s with this series and moles?
I hope there are more books coming into the Spy School series because they’re a great combination of mystery and James Bond (not). That was a joke. You probably don’t understand unless you’ve read Spy School.
16 Things You Thought Were True! By Emma Neely
#16thingsithoughtweretrue is about a girl named Morgan and she is fatherless. Her mother and father were divorced before she was born and she has two older twin brothers. Life was just fine for her until her mother had a heart attack. She figures she doesn’t have much time left and she wants to meet her dad. So she asks her mom about him, but she won’t tell her anything… except his name and where he lives: Bob White and Canada. She goes on a road trip to find him and ends up finding more than him . . . she finds herself.
I really enjoyed this book. The best part was when she finds her dad but he isn’t who she thinks he is. The plot line moved quickly, but there was a lot of detail. When you finish the book, you will have some questions about what happens to the characters in the story. And I warn you: there are some sad parts in it.
Walking Dead Season is Over! by Rachel Wisner
Alright. We have to face facts: my favorite show is off air. Thankfully, The Walking Dead will return to our televisions on October 12 at 9:00 pm. The sad part is until then we have to find a new show to become temporarily obsessed with. If you have Netflix, Crackle, or Hulu I think you should find a show with only one season so you don't get hooked on it for too long. Maybe go find a good anime, or watch doctor who, the 100, or go rewatch a show from your childhood, like Kim Possible or something I don't know what you watched as a kid figure it out.

Transition 1/2 Opener by Kueyoung Kim
May 18, 1939
The Germans have discovered how to split Uranium atoms. This is a huge step for science but also a huge step for the war that’s going on. If the Germans use this new discovery to develop a new weapon, who knows what kind of catastrophic thing could happen?
I heard that Albert Einstein and Enrico Fermi suggested starting our own nuclear research, but President Roosevelt had brushed off their concerns and had provided them with only a miniscule amount of funding.
While the war is growing more and more volatile, while us Americans have started to grow more and more nervous. Germany is growing more powerful.
September 1, 1939
Germany Invades Poland. That was the front page article on the newspaper today. I knew something like this was coming eventually, with all of the Hitler junk that the Germans were eating up. On a newsreel film today they showed acts of violence and destruction by the Nazi force. It was quite frightening. I already knew from their concentration camps that they were up to no good, but I didn’t see any reason to worry, the States were safe, there was no real reason that Germany and it’s dictator could do to attack the States. But if Germany invaded Poland then there was no doubt that they’re aiming for Global Conquest. Which meant that they would form alliances and attack surrounding countries. I hope this isn’t the beginning of something bad.
August 7, 1941
We’ve conducted the first controlled nuclear chain reaction!
That’s like when a single ball is dropped into a field of mousetraps, with a ball resting on top of it, to trigger one, and then another until all of the mouse traps have been triggered. If that’s confusing you could think of it like one atom split and then the two atoms hit two other atoms, then four and so on.
If it seems like I’m rambling, I am. This could be a deciding factor in the war! America’s nuclear project has gained more funding and they are starting to develop faster. I’m going to apply for a spot tomorrow.
The war has officially become REALLY BAD. Germany has invaded a lot of countries, and is gaining more power. The concentration camps have worsened too, with more people, worse living conditions, and less food.
September 3, 1942
I’ve started work at Hanford, Washington. I can’t say much about the Manhattan Project because it’s classified information. It’s hard work! The challenge is nice though, and it pays well.
There’s a new nuclear assembly plant in Los Alamos in New Mexico, run by Robert Oppenheimer.
The project has also employed 120,000 people and has spent nearly two billion dollars!
I probably shouldn’t be writing this, secrecy is crucial. If the Germans or the Japanese catch scent of this something very bad will happen. The heads of the project have also decided that Stalin would also have to be kept in the dark, and I agree. The Russians are probably just as powerful as the Germans or more and if they feel threatened by our invention they may attack.
I Am Number Four by Liz Orlova
I have recently finished the current Lorien Legacies series. While waiting for The Fate of Ten, which will be released in April, I’ve had some time to reflect on the series up to now.
I have found that the books are much more impressive when you are actually reading them.
If you have read the series (or books, in general), you will know that plot twists are vital to make the reader interested in the story. However, if there is one in every single chapter, they seem to lose meaning, such as they have in this case.
There are two more books scheduled to come out later this year. Hopefully, they will bring the series to an end, as I cannot imagine sitting through more of those books without finding out the conclusion.
Destiny Game Review by Colton Schmader
Destiny is a new game that came out September 9th 2014, and has been anticipated for years on forums, trailers, and YouTube. There are several reasons this game was very anticipated. First the makers on the game, are the people that created the Call of Duty and Halo franchises. These groups (both Call of Duty and Halo ) were the best selling game series in history. Call of Duty features a high detailed first person shooter game, with amazing campaigns. Halo is an open world alien fighting game, where you are the hero Master Chief, and you venture to new worlds to try to stop the aliens rule.
Now comes Destiny. Destiny is a spacey, first-person shooter game where your goal is kill aliens, and stop the incoming warships. Just like Halo, Destiny is an open world/planet game where you venture into the wilderness of future worlds. Now this might seem like the most amazing game ever, however this game was the most criticized game of 2014. Now lets see why.
Ever since the makers of the game announced its release date and a trailer, forums and Reddit exploded. The trailer released showed a bunch of cool things never before seen in other space games. However, shortly before it got released the creator of Halo left destiny. When the game finally came out the public didn’t think that much about the game. The storyline was very repetitive, and frankly, not that many people liked it.
I have just finished the game last weekend and I would have to say I agree with them. At the very beginning the game was supposed to have more characters, more evil and deep plot. Also the game would’ve had many more planets. However with more things, comes a higher age rating. Destiny’s goal was to have a ‘T’ rated game. However like most first-person shooter games, it soon became a ‘M’ rated game. So since they wanted to approve to a younger age group, the took away 3/4 of the storyline. What was left was a game where you go from point A to point B and shoot aliens and maybe a boss along the way. This might be entertaining to a 10 year old. However a 14 year old like me is very disappointing. So overall the game is actually okay, however it’s not worth the $60 game price. If the game was what it was supposed to be, it would be worth it. However, sadly, it isn’t.
A Year Without Sugar-New Book by Liz Orlova
A Year of No Sugar started with an awareness that turned into an idea, which turned into a blog, which turned into a lifestyle.
For Eve Schaub’s community in Vermont, sugar meant love. The best way to express love was with sugar.
But one day, Eve saw a very disturbing video. A forty-five minute lecture telling the truth about sugar. A wild idea came to her: what would happen if her family lived completely without sugar… for a full year?
And so came about A Year of No Sugar, the story of one person’s quest for change. Eve blogged every day, and her daughter faithfully kept a journal. From Vermont to New York to Italy, they spent a full year living without sugar. Was it hard? Yes. Was it frustrating? Yes.
Was it worth it?

Woman in Black 2 Movie Review by Jane Biddle
I would give The Woman In Black 2 a 4.5 out of 5 stars . If you like horror movies, this movie will be perfect for you! This movie is a scary movie. It is about a lady who has an orphanage with about eight kids, who move into an old house that is haunted. One of the children gets hypnotized to do what the “Woman in Black” tells him. Will he end up dying? You’ll have to watch the movie to know!
Movie Review: Into the Woods by Ariana Hoy and Virginia DeArmitt
The new movie, Into The Woods, is a movie based off of the famous musical. Many schools have done the musical Into the Woods before as a musical, for example Penn State has done this musical. The movie has many famous actors in it like Johnny Depp (the big bad wolf), Chris Pine (Cinderellas Prince), Anna Kendrick (Cinderella), Meryl Streep (the Witch), James Corden (the Baker), Emily Blunt (the bakers wife), Tracy Ullman (Jacks Mother), Lilla Crawford (little red riding hood), Daniel Huttlestone (Jack), MacKenzie Mauzy (Rapunzel), Billy Magnussen (Rapunzels Prince), Christine Baranski (Cinderella’s stepmother), Lucy Punch (Lucinda), Frances de la Tour (The Giant), and Tammy Blanchard (Florinda). These are the main characters in the movie.
What happens in the movie is the Baker and his Wife want a baby but they can't have one. They live next door to a Witch, who put a curse on their house, because of what the bakers father did in the past. The curse is that their family tree would be barren. The witch wasn't satisfied with just that, so she took the bakers sister who we know as Rapunzel. The baker’s father took the witch’s magic beans in the past which caused her to put the curse on the house and set a spell on herself that made her ugly . Many years went by and finally it was the year of the Blue Moon. In order for both curses to be removed the Witch told the baker and his wife what they needed to find before Midnight of the Blue Moon. The items included: A Cow as white as milk, Hair as yellow as corn, A cape as red as blood, and a slipper as gold as gold. In order to find these items the baker has to go Into the Woods. While in the woods the baker has to go through many obstacles in order to find these items. And along the way he meets many characters from familiar fairy tale stories that you have heard before to help the baker and his wife get a baby child. Filled with comedy, adventure, and great music, this is a movie that all will love.
Video Games Glitches by James DeLong
Glitches are pretty hilarious but they are still mistakes. We are going to countdown the top 10 most well known glitches in games, good and bad.
10. Action 52 (Action 52)
The whole game is a glitch. 52 games on one cartridge is a recipe for disaster. One example is the Nintendo version of Ooze. The guys who created the game said that whoever get’s past level 5 of Ooze would win $104,000, but it is impossible because the game would freeze at the end of level 3. They thought the Cheetahmen game would follow a franchise of toys, games, and other stuff, but Cheetahmen 2 is even more glitchy than Action 52.
9. The Swing set Glitch (GTA 4)
A game this big will come with a few mistakes, and the most famous of these is the swingset glitch. Go to a swingset in the southeast corner of Broker (Brooklyn) and drive up to it and keep accelerating until you get launched into the sky flying towards Algonquin (Manhattan). This glitch also returned in GTA 5, but instead of a swing it is a gate and it is a lot harder to activate.
8. Flying Horse (Skyrim)
Skyrim is also pretty big and this glitch is what the fantasy version of the bike from E.T would probably look like. There three ways this glitch can occur, like getting launched off a mountain or the horse jumping for no reason, and (my personal favorite) the horse becoming a pinball.
7. Cheetahmen 2 (Cheetahmen 2)
I made a brief reference at the number 10 spot, so I don’t need to go on.
6. Round 100 (Duck Hunt)
I guess the developers thought that nobody would get round 100, because hitting the ducks is impossible because they fly so fast.
5. Pimp my Wagon (Red Dead Redemption)
This glitch makes old-west wagon tires hop up and down like a lowrider.
4. Manimals (Red Dead Redemption)
Another funny glitch involving Red Dead is animals who look like people (like a lady who thinks she is a donkey).
3. Bad Physics (Skate 3)
Another game that’s one big glitch is Bad Physics. The game is pretty good and the glitches are very hillarious, like visiting the sewer by jumping through the sidewalk. I actually had a unique experience with this game. After visiting the sewer, I went up very high and I could not see the ground anymore. My character then fell very fast and he went right through a basketball hoop.
2. Under the map (GTA Online or GTA 5)
In GTA Online, there are some spots on the map where you can go under the map. The most well known is at the airport where you use a helicopter or a plane to fly to a wall and you pass right through it and you under the map. Most of the time when you go through these places you will fall and respawn at a place near the glitch. However, there are some that have platforms perfect for killing unaware players.
Unknown (GTA 5)
Another glitch on GTA Online it is not named because I cannot think of a name for it. In this glitch, sometimes you have a rare chance to get into water and then fall through all the way to the ocean floor and walk on it. Yeah you will walk underwater and not lose any oxygen. Perfect for killing surprising swimmers.
Ten Worst Video Game Consoles of All-Time by James DeLong
Today’s review is of the Top 10 worst video game consoles. Only the functionality of the consoles is being reviewed here, not the hardware problems that some of the consoles have demonstrated over the years (the Xbox “red ring of death” has caused a lot of problems, but the Xbox 360’s gameplay was a critical and commercial success, so don’t expect anything like that on this list.)
10. 3DO
This system released back in 1993 made the use of full motion video like the Sega CD. This system went out of its way to insult Nintendo and Genesis by saying those were just baby’s toys, but this system flopped miserably mostly because of its retail price of $700.
9. Pippin
Are you a die hard Apple fan hoping they make a game console? Released in 1996 the Apple Pippin system cost $600, and what would justify such a price? The web browser upped the price, but even with this feature, it fell hard.
8. N Gage
Released in 2003, this thing was portable game system/phone, but it flopped hard because it was a phone then a game system.
7. Gizmondo
Released in 2005, this Tiger Electronic game was another portable game system, but it also flopped very badly. Only 8 games were released during its short life span, and the retail price was $450, but people could pick up the $299 version but be forced to watch ads. That’s right, you would be forced to watch ads to compensate for the lower cost.
6. Laseractive
This system had the weirdest CD’s ever - about 1 foot in length and width - and you couldn’t really play your games without a boatload of expensive extra’s, putting the total cost to $2,500. Yeah, you read me right, $2500 dollars. This thing fell hard.
5. Sega CD and Sega 32X
Meant to expand the life of the Genesis, these were released in 1993 and 1995. They ran off their own power adaptors, but the Sega CD did in fact have a great Sonic Game, Sonic CD, which is considered the best of the Sonic Games.
4. Magnavox Odyssey
This was the very first home video game console released in 1972, and it looked like it. The graphics are overlays which you put on your tv. That’s pretty weird.
3. Atari Jaguar
This thing was released in 1993, and it was a “64 bit” system where the ads depicted gamers as morons. Does that make you want to buy? And don’t get me started on the Jaguar CD, which when attached to the Jaguar made it look like a toilet.
2. Virtual Boy
Nintendo’s first shot at 3D was horrible. It was released in 1993 and gave people head strains. It was also a “portable” system. But you could barely find a comfortable place to play it at home it needs a head strap.
1.Philips CDi
Oh, brother. I really don’t want to talk about this but I have to. Some backstory: Nintendo was working with Sony to make a CD based add on for the SNES which never came to be. Nintendo then broke partnerships with Sony, and Sony thought, “Why can’t we make our own video game system and kick major butt by ourselves?” We all know what came next was the PlayStation. You read me right - Nintendo inadvertently created the PlayStation. Nintendo then partnered with Philips for the same concept, and Phillips, with the “right to use” Nintendo Characters, made a subpar system that had horrible games and horrible graphics, and not to mention the god awful cut-scenes.
Ten Best Video Game Consoles of All-Time by James DeLong
10. Atari 2600
This system released in 1973 put gaming on the map. The graphics on this system may be poor and weird today, but back then they were impressive. Kind of ironic too, considering it was the reason for the video game crash of the 80’s because of the release of two VERY terrible games. Pac Man (the port to the 2600 was bad but Pac Man all together is a great game stick to the arcade version) and the god awful E.T. The Extra Terrestrial. But other than that this is still a great system
9. NES (Nintendo Entertainment System)
This system released by Nintendo in 1985 is the reason games are still around today. This system saved us from the game crash of the 80s. Why? Mario of course. Mario is the messiah of video games. Such a great system.
8. SNES (Super Nintendo Entertainment System)
This system started the trend I like to call the bit wars. Meant to compete with the Sega Genesis, this system lost that battle because of five words: No Blood in Mortal Kombat. The port of Mortal Kombat to the SNES had no blood at all and no fatalities. Because the Genesis version did have blood and fatalities, gamers jumped ship to the Genesis and the Genesis sold more systems.
7. Sega Genesis
This system was a great system and was the birthplace for Mario’s arch rival Sonic the Hedgehog.
6. Playstation
The original PlayStation was pretty dang awesome.
5. Xbox
People did not think this system was going to be good, but there was one game exclusive to Xbox that had people buy this system and put Microsoft on the map of video games. It is one of the greatest games of all times, Halo: Combat Evolved. This game is AWESOME.
4. PS2
The PS2 (Playstation 2) is actually the best selling video game console. It had very great games with it.
3. PS3
This system is pretty dang good.
2. Nintendo 64
This system had so many great games with it, including Super Mario 64, Goldeneye, and Star Fox 64 to name a few.
1.Xbox 360
The first system of the last generation video game console was awesome.
Book Review: I'm With Stupid by Farhan Talukder
I’m With Stupid is the third and final book in the Felton Reinstein trilogy, and in my opinion, it is the best ending series the series could possibly have, and it is also extremely accessible to people who haven’t read the other two books in the series. The Felton Reinstein Trilogy is written by Geoff Herbach, a creative writing professor at Minnesota State, and it mainly revolves around Felton Reinstein, who at the beginning of the series is about to enter his sophomore year in high school and will be on the football team.
Felton had been an outcast all of his life, with his best and only friend being Gus, who was in the same situation as Felton. However, the gift of puberty was bestowed upon him and he became stupid fast, which happens to be the title of the first book in the trilogy. He has trouble adjusting to his new status as a jock and all of the other troubles that come along in high school, and this is a common theme in YA novels. The Felton trilogy is special because the family situation takes the spotlight here, and Felton’s family is so unique yet so realistic at the same time that you can’t help but on Felton’s side, even if he is a dumb jock.
One of the biggest factors in Felton’s family and life is his little brother Andrew. Andrew is pretty much the polar opposite of Felton. Andrew is smart and is regarded as a prodigy, while Felton isn’t the smartest monkey in the barrel, but he is athletically gifted. Felton has trouble dealing with his past and realizing who he is, while Andrew is, in his words, “a whole person.”
However, their bond is the strongest family tie Felton has, because Felton’s mom, Jerri, is just a hot mess. She was messed up by her husband’s suicide which messes up Felton in the book, but she doesn’t try to deal with it. She just hides her husband and who he was from Felton and Andrew, and that revelation is the climax of the first book. However this review is about the last book, so let’s talk about that.
I’m With stupid takes places during Felton’s senior year in high school, which, considering what he has been through in all of these books, is probably the toughest year for him. The book has little mention of school life in terms of class work, really only talking about AP English, but it talks about how his football career and picking a college affects him and his peers. You see, in the book, Felton is the third ranked high school running back in the country, so he doesn’t have to work to get into college.
Everything is handed on a platter. He is from Wisconsin, and all of his friends expect to pick The University of Wisconsin, and this is bad, since after four visits to colleges, he realizes that he wants to go to Stanford University instead, but he puts on a face and says he wants to go to Wisconsin. Gus’s experiences with applying for college also affect him, and he realizes that he doesn’t really know what defines him, so he undertakes a quest to be meaningful. This leads to some of the most emotional and revealing moments in the book. This also leads to Felton doing some of the only positive things he does in the book, because while you are always on Felton’s side, he does some horrible things, and while these things are justified, you can’t help but facepalm when he makes certain decisions.
However, the book doesn’t make Felton seem like a bad person, even though he does bad things. It does a good job painting Felton and his friends in a positive light while not ignoring the fact that they are not angels; they are flawed, but you still see their good side. This book also has awesome characters, and it expanded on almost every character from the previous books and made them better. In fact, even Felton’s father, who committed suicide when Felton was five, is prevalent in all of the books and had a negative effect on Felton in the 1st and 3rd books and influenced his actions in this book.
Each of these characters are important in their own ways, because almost every part of the book, no matter how important it appears, factors into the end result, and it is very satisfying to see everything tie up and have closure. However, to get to that ending, this book takes a pretty long time, as the pacing is erratic, with some sections going along super slowly and others going really fast. These pacing issues didn’t bother me, but it may bother you. Also, this book covers some pretty heavy stuff, even for a YA novel, so I would recommend this book for mature readers who are at least in the 8th grade.
All in all, I’m With Stupid is the final book in a trilogy that has satisfied me more than every other YA series out there, and I’m With Stupid is a satisfying end.
Bionicle 2015 by Colton Schmader
In 2001, LEGO wasn’t doing too well. They were losing money fast, and they needed a savior to prevent them from filing for bankruptcy. So they took an idea that was shoved aside before and started that off. It was a major hit. It became the best selling line they’ve ever had.
This Toy Line is known as BIONICLE. Bionicle is an action figure toy that allows kids to build a figure using tons of parts. At the time all lego has made was sets made of plain bricks. This was a major step into the company of LEGO. They made comics, movies, and tv shows based off of bionicles too. Much later, in 2010 they stopped making the sets due to dwindling interest. So they replaced the Bionicle toys (for ages 6-14) with the Hero Factory toys (for ages 2-6) which removed the line from the teenager market. So in 2015, they will be bringing back Bionicle, however with the parts of the newer sets.
The first major issue with the new Bionicle sets are that they’re going to be made with the newer parts. Now the older parts did break a little easier, however their complexity is what made them fun to build (left image above). The right image is the new Bionicle 2015 set titled Lewa. As you can see the newer sets are much less complicated. This is a good thing when it comes to wanting kids to buy it. The older sets were much more complicated and made a much better set, but they were for older kids. So just because Hero Factory had more sales than 2010 doesn’t mean they were better sets.
The second biggest problem is the customizability of the sets. The new sets are just blocks with circles to put armor on. The older sets had much more complicated sets, making them look better. The right arm alone in the picture above had over 30 pieces. The set on the right has about a TOTAL of 30 pieces. So as you can see the complexity is what makes Bionicle better than Bionicle 2015.
So will Bionicle 2015 ruin the saga? For us ‘old schoolers’ it will . . . a lot. However, for the kids that just got into this, they will enjoy it. Even if it isn’t as good as the older sets.
The 10 Best Movies Ever Made by J. Delong
These are yet more top 10 movies ever list since I saw a lot of movies the last time I wrote this list I figured I should do it again.
1. Rise of the Planet of the Apes
This reboot of the original 1960’s classic was absolutely awesome (not to mention they had to make this so we could forget about the DISASTROUS 2001 Planet of the Apes which made it on the first top 10 worst movies ever list.)
2. The Dark Knight Rises
This the last and the worst of the Christopher Nolan Batman trilogy. When I say worst, I don’t mean it was bad. I mean it was not as good as the others, but it was still a great movie
3. Batman Begins
The first in the trilogy was extremely awesome.
4. The Dark Knight
The best in the trilogy had a lot of comedic moments like when The Joker fiddled with his detonation controller which actually was not even part of the script. It just made the crew laugh so hard they just had to put it in to the finished cut and a lot of awesome action moments.
5. Captain America:The Winter Soldier
This Sequel to Captain America featured a fan favorite the winter soldier as the semi villain turned good (at least I think he did), not to mention the winter soldier (SPOILER ALERT) is actually Captain America’s presumed-dead friend from the 40s.
6. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey
The first movie in The Hobbit trilogy was pretty good.
7. The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug
The second movie was even better than the first, and the design for Smaug was an incredible example of top-notch computer animated graphics (CGI).
8. The Lord of the RIngs Trilogy
Still such great movies.
9. Guardians of the Galaxy
This film which is still in theatre was TOTALLY AWESOME! I have been reading the comics since I was 7 and I have longed for a film for a long time. I stopped reading the comics but not stopped collecting them when I was 11. And then when I went to see The Amazing Spiderman 2, a trailer showing good effects, good character development, and awesome plot.
10. Godzilla (2014)
The film almost caused me to have heart attack when I found out they were making this film that brought back a great film character. This reboot of the famous Japanese franchise was absolutely awesome. It is the best American Godzilla ever, and the best movie ever period. With great effects, great character development, and Bryan Cranston (Walter White from Breaking Bad) is in it which that alone got this film rated this high.
