Th i n gs I Recom m en d f r om St ar bu ck s
By Tw enty Quan Pilots
I LOVE Star bucks; I go ther e w henever I
can, but som e of their tr eats ar e either bad or
not good for you. Even so, I?m a ?sugar -holic,?
so I?m still going to w r ite things I r ecom m end
fr om ther e and som e r eview s.
Fir st of all, I think that their r efr esher s
ar e delicious. The ones that I have seen ar e
str aw ber r y lem onade, ?ver y ber r y? (or
som ething
like
that),
and
r aspber r y
pom egr anate. The r aspber r y pom is new , I
assum e, because I just saw that this m or ning
for the fir st tim e. They do have caffeine in
them , (spar kling gr een tea) but if you dr ink it
ear ly in the m or ning once in aw hile, you?ll
pr obably be fine. The dow nside is that the
r efr esher s have about 20 gr am s of sugar in
them ? w hich is a lot. So I consider it desser t.
Each can contains 355 m l of dr ink .
Her e is a r eview of the str aw lem onade one:
* The can is pink and says ?Str aw ber r y
Lem onade Star bucks r efr esher s.?
* Each can (12 FL OZ or 355 m l) has 90 calor ies.
* It has gr een tea in it
* Pr etty natur al ingr edients (but of cour se, it?s
pr obably not all natur al.)
* 20 gr am s of sugar
It tasted m or e like sw eet str aw ber r ies than
lem ons, but it still tasted am azing and is r eally
good for a hot day w hen you need a little
ener gy and a little SUGAAAA. I r ate it 9/10, so
an A m inus!!!
Second of all, I r ecom m end the cake
pops? they ar e BETTER THAN M Y LIFE. The
cur r ent flavor s ar e chocolate chip cookie
dough, bir thday cake, and chocolate. Sadly,
these ar e also ver y sugar y.
The cookie dough cake pop is basically a ball of
cookie dough w ith har dened, tan, delicious
fr osting ar ound it and a few chocolate chips. It
tastes r eally good and I r ate it 8.75/10.
The second one I m entioned w as
bir thday cake. This one is even better than
cookie dough. It?s just vanilla cake w ith
har dened pink fr osting ar ound it and a few
spr inkles. (By the w ay, cake pops ar e just
spher es of cake on a stick .) It is my favor ite
one? 10/10.
Finally, the chocolate one. This is good,
but it is the one I have had least of all. I just
find it m or e dense than the other ones and not
as tasty, but it?s still tastes gr eat. I?m pr etty sur e
the fr osting ar ound it is br ow n and ther e ar e a
few spr inkles on it. 8/10. Also, dur ing the W inter ,
they have a pepper m int br ow nie cake pop,
w hich is my favor ite ever.
Thir d of all, zee coffee cake!!!
Review of the sw ir led coffee cake:
* It w as differ ent shades of br ow n
* Tasted r eally good, but I could tell it w as
loaded w ith sugar
* It tasted a tiny bit like coffee, and like
cinnam on? the per fect com bo
* This coffee cake had cool sw ir ls on it of dar ker
br ow n
* On the outside ther e w as cooked sugar ? YUM
Over all, this w as so yum my, but not per fect.
8.5/10.
I had a str aw ber r y sm oothie and it w asn?t
am azing? but it w as fine. I also had a passion
tea thingy-ishy-thingy; it w as ok, but ver y
w eir d-tasting.
Finally, I r ecom m end the fr appuccinos. I
have tr ied vanilla bean, chocolate, double
chocolatey chip and java chip. Java chip w as
easily the best, but has a lot of coffee in it, so I
only have been allow ed to get it once ever y
tw o-thr ee m onths. (I had it once at 4:00pm and
stayed up all night cleaning my r oom and doing
jum ping jacks and car tw heels, m aking a r acket. I
had no chill. LOL)
Java Chip: 100,000/10
Vanilla bean: 9/10
Double Chocolatey Chip: 8/10
Chocolate: eh 7.5/10
NOTE: pr obably the w or st thing you can get at
Star bucks in ter m s of health. But the best things
ther e, of cour se.
I r eally w ant to tr y the s?m or es one! I hope you
tr y these things!

W hy Pok em on Go i s Addi ct i n g
By Lily Br inkm an
Pokem on Go is the m ost
addicting gam e I have ever
played. I have the ur ge to r un
ar ound the par k and find
Pokem on. Finally w e have a
gam e that focuses on being
active. Ever y single other video
gam e has you sitting on your
couch building stuff (not that it?s
bad). Pokem on Go has a bad side
too. If you?r e dr iving and your
phone buzzes, w hat do you
choose: To catch the Pokem on
and possibly get into a car cr ash
or ignor e the gam e. People have
been getting hit by car s and
m any people have been getting
r obbed due to playing on team
m ode. Pokem on Go also doesn?t
have m any ser ver s so if you live
in a city (like m e) ther e is little to
no chance that you ar e going to
catch a Pokem on in m id-daylight.
If you?r e playing at night it?s a
totally differ ent stor y. Not as
m any people finding Pokem on,
m eans that you?ll end up finding
cool/r ar e Pokem on. This gam e
w as a gr eat idea and I can?t w ait
for them to m ake a new update.

By Kailey Chen
Have you hear d of the app gam e Pokem on GO? Well,
now lots of people have it and ther e have been som e
incidents. People have been falling off cliffs or ocean
bluffs playing Pokem on GO. Pokem on GO has been
putting
people?s
lives in danger. I
know it m ight be
addicting but I do
not think this is a
ver y good gam e to
play. Som e people
get sever ely injur ed
or killed by just
playing this gam e. I
just w ant to w ar n

how
danger ous it is to

W hy Ha milton i s t h e M u si cal t o En d Al l
M u si cal s: I , Too W i l l Fi gh t
By Roxanne Glassenber g (W ho is Right!!!)
So, som e people says that ther e ar e other
m usicals that can hold their ow n against
Ham ilton. I say, no, absolutely not! In this
ar ticle I?m going to pr ove Nina w r ong by
listing 5 r easons ther e can never , ever , ever ,
ever , ever , ever be a m usical better than
Ham ilton, and w hy ther e has never been a
m usical as good!
1. Ham ilton is Innovative
Has ther e ever a hip-hop them ed m usical that
has histor ical figur es in it? No, ther e?s not.
Ser iously, ther e?s not! Br oadw ay (and the
w or ld) have never seen anything like it.
Ther e?s a r eason ever yone loves it, and it?s
unique! Som e people say that 1776 is the sam e
thing ? it?s not. It?s ? w ow. ?Bor ing? com es to
m ind. And also ? * snor es* ? sor r y, it?s just
har d to w atch not-as-good actor s tr ying to be
Ham ilton befor e Ham ilton, and w ithout
r apping. Ew w.
2. Ham ilton is funny
Go, r ight now , and listen to ?Obedient Ser vant?
and ?Guns and Ships?. Okay, fir st of all, the
songs ar e catchy and they ar e hyster ical! I
m ean, the idea of Lafayette being the
suave/aw esom e dude is just am azing! It?s all I
can say.
3. Ham ilton is cr itically acclaim ed
It w on 11 Tonys. They called them the
Ham il-Tonys. IT BROKE A RECORD, DUDE! Oh
w ait: A Daily Doubler w ho is on the other side
of this ar gum ent says that The Pr oducer s w on
12 w hile Ham ilton w on 11. Still, Lin
M anuel-M ir anda (the guy w ho w as the
or iginal Ham ilton and w r ote Ham ilton) w on a
Pulitzer pr ize. Now , ther e ar e those w ho claim
that he w on it for his other m usical In the
Heights and Ham ilton but I say, ?W hy didn?t
he w in it for In the Heights until Ham ilton??
The pr ize is for Ham ilton. Give it up on that
one, okay? And by the w ay, I w ant to m ake it
clear that other m usicals ar e good, even gr eat,
but my per sonal opinion is that Ham ilton is
the gr eatest of the gr eat and epitom e of all
br oadw ay. How do you not see this????????

Once, ther e w as a hippo nam ed
Bob. Bob loved to sur f. He sur fed ever y
day on his hom e planet: Oool.
But Oool?s w ater s w er e not m ade
of w ater , they w er e m ade of ice cr eam !
One day, Bob saw som ething in the
w ater ? it w as a giant hot dog! The
people of Oool had never seen a hot dog
befor e. Bob w atched the hot dog float
ashor e. He w alked up to it ver y slow ly.
He poked it, pr odded it, sm elled it,
exam ined it, and finally tasted it. It w as
delicious!
He br ought it hom e and show ed
it to his fr iends. They backed aw ay fr om
it, ter r ified. He encour aged them to tr y
it. Finally, after lots of encour agem ent,
they tr ied it. Now , food on Oool w as
bland and black, kind of like a blob of
black m uck . They had never actually
tasted anything delicious befor e; they
didn't even know w hat ?delicious?
m eant. Anyw ay, his fr iends tr ied it and
they w er e am azed by how delicious it
tasted. They ate and ate and w hen they
r eached a deep enough point, they
r ealized that it w as hollow ! Inside ther e
w as a m essage inside it.
It said: ?We gave you this gift so
that w e could ask for a w or ldly
fr iendship. Our planet is ver y cool? you
can com e and live her e. Fr om , Ear th?.
Ear th? they had never even know n that
ther e w er e other planets! So, he packed
his bags and headed for Ear th. He used
his futur istic UFO to get to ear th. W hen
he got ther e, he w as am azed by how
m any good foods ther e w er e! He ate so
m uch he got devolved and becam e the
fir st hippo to w alk the ear th. That?s how
hippos cam e to be.

I s Th i s Al l a Dr eam ?

Have you ever w onder ed if life is all a
dr eam ? Well, you'r e not alone? I do too.
M aybe I am an alien and ther e's no such
thing as hum ans, or a bir d that lives in the
m iddle of the ocean. If you hate your life,
you m ight like the pr ospect that life's a
dr eam , but I feel kind of cr eeped out about
it because I m ight be in a dr eam but I m ight
not. It feels so r eal, but dr eam s do feel r eal!
So I guess the conclusion is: Is life a dr eam ?

The m ind is som ething m any should and do w onder about. Som e feel as though the m ind is just the
br ain doing its w or k . Som e think that your m ind is your br ain and that you don?t have a m ind, only a
br ain. W hat I think is that your m ind is not the br ain, but uses the br ain. The br ain is the m ind's
sour ce and the m ind cannot sur vive w ithout the br ain, just as the br ain cannot sur vive w ithout the
m ind. The m ind is a useful tool in m any w ays, but also can be confused and toyed w ith to the br eaking
point. The m ind is like a infinite libr ar y w ith huge am ounts of know ledge that is constantly expanding.
The com puter s in the libr ar y of the m ind ar e like m em or y, alw ays looking for infor m ation stor ed
w ithin the libr ar y. Ever y single m om ent of your life, even the ones spent doing ever yday things like
br ushing your teeth, cooking, and eating your m om 's disgusting potato salad, ar e stor ed w ithin those

Do you know w hat a gir affe is?
They ar e ver y tall anim als that can
r un 37 m ph. Their necks ar e ver y
long, so they can r each tall tr ees.
They live in the Afr ican savanna. A
long tim e ago, som e gir affes had
shor t necks. The gir affes w ith shor t
necks could not r each tr ees, so they
died out. Gir affes eat leaves or fr uit
that fell out of tr ees. Lions,
leopar ds or hyenas eat gir affes.
Gir affes have long legs. I fed a
gir affe at the zoo. They ar e
inter esting. The gir affe I fed w as
ver y big. It w as 5 year s old. I hoped
you like lear ning about gir affes.

I n M em or y of El i e W i esel
By M ichael Weiskopf
Holocaust sur vivor , author , pr ofessor , hum an r ights activist, and
Nobel laur eate Eliezer (Elie) W iesel passed aw ay Satur day at the age of
87 in New Yor k City. A spokesm an for the Yad VaShem Holocaust
m em or ial in Jer usalem stated that he died ?peacefully of natur al
causes.? In keeping w ith the Jew ish tr adition of bur ying the dead as
soon as possible after death, W iesel?s funer al w as held a day after his
death.
Bor n in Sighet, Hungar y, w hich today is in Rom ania, W iesel and
his fam ily w er e depor ted to the Auschw itz concentr ation cam p in
Poland in 1944. He w as only 15 year s old. His m other and one of his
sister s w er e killed im m ediately upon ar r ival at Auschw itz, but Elie
and his father lived. The tw o of them w er e for ced on sever al ?Death
M ar ches,? w hen som etim es thousands of pr isoner s w er e for ced to r un
for extr em ely long distances fr om one cam p to another. In 1945, Elie
and his father w er e m oved to Buchenw ald, a slightly sm aller
concentr ation cam p in Ger m any. Elie?s father w as killed a few days
later. Buchenw ald w as liber ated by the Allied For ces later that year
and he w as r eunited w ith tw o of his sister s, his only r em aining fam ily.
W iesel m oved to Fr ance w her e, in 1958, he published Night, a
collection of his m em or ies fr om the Holocaust. As of today, Night has
been tr anslated fr om Fr ench into over 30 differ ent languages. Night is
often cr edited w ith r aising aw ar eness in Am er ica for the Holocaust.
Nam ed the m ost influential Jew ish-Am er ican thr ee tim es by the
Los Angeles Tim es, W iesel w on the Nobel Peace Pr ize in 1986. In
intr oducing W iesel, the chair m an of the Nobel Com m ittee said, ?Fr om
the abyss of the death cam ps he has com e as a m essenger to m ankind,
not w ith a m essage of hate and r evenge, but w ith one of br other hood
and atonem ent.? As W iesel accepted the aw ar d, he stated that he
w ould do so on behalf of the six m illion Jew s w ho w er e m ur der ed in
the Holocaust, as w ell as the sur vivor s. W iesel becam e a pr ofessor at
Boston Univer sity and r em ained ther e until his r etir em ent in 2011.
W iesel had a passion for hum an r ights for his w hole life, advocating
on behalf of Jew s fleeing the USSR, Ethiopian Jew s, and other
per secuted gr oups in Nicar agua, Cam bodia, Ar gentina, Rw anda, South
Afr ica, and for m er Yugoslavia. He w as also a leader in the fight
against Holocaust Denial, incr easing aw ar eness ar ound the w or ld.
I had the oppor tunity to r ead Night a few m onths ago for school.
Being fr om a fam ily of Holocaust sur vivor s, the stor y w as especially
m oving. M y gr eat-gr andpar ents sur vived Auschw itz, Buchenw ald, and
Ther eisenstadt am ong other s. One of my gr eat-gr andfather s even hid
in the w oods of Poland w ith his br other s. W iesel?s w or k against
Holocaust Denial w as also inspir ing. The Holocaust r eally happened,
and my gr eat-gr andm other , w ho at 91 still lives a happy and healthy
life in Chicago, is living pr oof of that fact. Lastly, Elie W iesel taught us
that w e should alw ays put love, toler ance, and for giveness above all.
And that is exactly w hat the w or ld needs r ight now.

By Cian M oss and Zach Jaffe
Recently, the fam ous soccer player
Lionel M essi took a ?500 m illion deal
to m ove fr om FC Bar celona to Real
M adr id. This deal shocked the soccer
w or ld seeing that the w or ld's m ost
fam ous soccer player w ill be m oving
to FC Bar celona's r ival. Now , m ost of
you m ight not know this, but another
ver y good player nam ed Cr istiano
Ronaldo plays for Real M adr id so this
gives Real M adr id a ver y high chance
of w inning the Liga cham pionship,
w hich is a com petition w her e all the
clubs in Eur ope face off against each
other to see w ho is the best. Real
M adr id also has a good soccer player
nam ed Gar eth Bale w hich r aises the
stakes of them w inning the Liga
cham pionship. I think this tr ade is a
lot like the tr ade w ith Kevin Dur ant
and the War r ior s. It is com par able
because the War r ior s have a r eally
good player nam ed Steph Cur r y and
they ar e getting a r eally good player
nam ed Kevin Dur ant, so this w ill also
im pr ove the stakes of them w inning
the cham pionship a few tim es
because of the com bination of the
player s. Recently, Ar gentina lost M essi
w hen Chile beat them in the Copa
Am er ica final it w as a big blow to
Ar gentina because he car r ied the
team on his back . He is thinking
about m oving to Spain, w hich w ill
m ake spain O.P. fr om all the other
player s.

playing for the Spur s and w ill definitely be a
Hall of Fam er. He announced his r etir em ent
in the m ost quiet w ay he could, letting other s
talk for him . He had one of the gr eatest
legacies, m aking the playoffs in all 19 year s
of
his

Cel t i cs Fr ee Agen cy
By Casey Cor cor an
Our hom etow n team , the Boston
Celtics, w anted to tr ade their #3 dr aft
pick for a m or e exper ienced player ,
but that didn?t happen. The Celtics
m ay be able to pull their dr aft pick
decision off, but they m ight need to
sign a m or e exper ienced player in fr ee
agency. For exam ple, Kevin Dur ant of
the Oklahom a City Thunder m ight be a
good option. He can add m ajor scor ing
and shooting to the Celtics. He?ll also
take pr essur e off of other player s to
scor e, and these other player s can do
w ell w ith Dur ant. The Celtics m ight
also w ant Al Hor for d of the Atlanta
Haw ks, Ryan Ander son of the New
Or leans Pelicans, and Har r ison Bar nes
of the Golden State War r ior s. The
Haw ks? Hor for d did only have 14.4
points per gam e (w hich is his low est
since his second season in the NBA),
but he?s pr etty good at scor ing and
defense. Ryan Ander son fr om the
Pelicans is a big guy w ho m ight be
able to add som e shooting to the
Celtics. 7-footer Kelly Olynk didn?t
exactly do this job. Finally, Har r ison
Bar nes fr om the 2015 NBA Cham pions,
the Golden State War r ior s, m ight not
be com pletely r eady for a differ ent
team and r ole, but he could be flexible
and consistent w ith the Celtics.
