I don’t know about you, but I feel that it is unfair that all 7th graders should be punished by picking up after others for the failure of a few to clean up after themselves. Therefore, I am calling on all 7th graders who make a mess of the quad regularly to clean up after yourselves. Call upon your conscience. We all know that the right thing to do is to clean up after ourselves. This is not a personal issue that affects only ourselves. Some people are resulting in the punishment of the ENTIRE 7TH GRADE! Each is affecting 72 other people, resulting in their punishment by being forced to clean up the cafeteria. These rules may be, at times, hard to enforce, but I believe that each person should do their duty and clean up after themselves. Take the extra 30 seconds and put that binder in your backpack as opposed to next to it! No one wants to punished for something they never did, and these people are resulting in that punishment. You may think “I can’t single handedly mess up the quad! It doesn’t matter!” However, when dozens of other 7th graders get the same notion in their heads, you get A LOT OF MESS! While some might think that they are saving themselves time and effort by not putting things away, they are actually creating more work for themselves by causing everyone to clean the cafeteria against their wills. Beyond punishment, these people are making it harder to organize themselves and find things. They are creating a fire hazard, and disrespecting the staff who have to clean up after them. They are also disrespecting the environment In short, clean up after yourself!

Mardi Gras
Idalys and Brandon
On February 24, we had a mini Mardi Gras celebration. For that week's assembly, Ms. Brigham gave the Middle School a presentation of the history of Mardi Gras and celebration in New Orleans, Louisiana. We have interviewed Ms. Brigham about her experiences of celebrating Mardi Gras and these are the questions we asked her:
Brandon & Idalys: How did you learn about the tradition of Mardi Gras?
Ms.Brigham: I was born in New Orleans and attended all of the parades since I was a baby.
Brandon & Idalys: What are some major things that happens at Mardi Gras celebrations?
Ms.Brigham: on Mardi Gras day they have parades all day from 9 to 3. There are food vendors on the street who sell food and beverages. At night there are grand balls everyone can attend.
Brandon & Idalys: What are the balls like?
Ms.Brigham: There is dancing, music, and food. Women wear long dresses and men wear tuxedos. They also announce the king and queen for each krew.
Since what age did you start celebrating Mardi Gras?
I started to celebrate Mardi Gras on my first February, when I was one.
Why is Mardi Gras important to you?
It makes New Orleans a special place. It is also a celebration in which the whole city participates in. There is also no school or work so everyone can have a chance to celebrate this special day.

LHC Follow up Follow up
After a malfunction due to an electrical arc, it looks like the LHC will be back online in September. It will have several new safety features, including pressure release valves on the liquid helium tank, which failed due to the electrical arc, leaking 6 tons of helium. It is estimated that the repairs and additions will cost at least $21.5 million. Scientists working on the machine are hoping it will work for the next decade or more.

Green Energy
Everyone has heard the hype over global warming, and how we could be improving the earth’s health. Now that it’s getting warmer out, there are ways we can help while having fun and enjoying the clear skies.
1. The sad truth is that your parents’ car emits as much carbon dioxide as your entire house. That's the bad news. The good news is that anything you can do to improve the fuel efficiency of your car will have an enormous impact on climate change. In fact, experts say that paying attention to fuel efficiency in your car may be the single biggest thing we can do to prevent global warming. Buying a fuel-efficient car (such as a hybrid) is wonderful. In fact, your parents replacing their gas-guzzling car with a fuel-efficient one is by far the best thing anyone can do, out of all your choices. But not all of us can do that—at least, not with the current economy. Carmakers haven't sold enough hybrids in the U.S. yet to make them as affordable as they should be. That will change, but not for a few years. Drive less. Every year, Americans as a whole drive more miles than they did the year before. Stop this trend, and we drive a stake in that trend. Telecommuting and public transportation are great options—once a week saves a ton of carbon dioxide a year—but even piling multiple errands into one trip helps. If you could walk, bike, skateboard, or anything other form of physical activity that can take you somewhere, that would be the best way to travel to school, the store, or any place that you need to go to.
2. When you’re doing your chores, take this tip. The other big users of energy in your household are your hot water heater, your washer and dryer, and your dishwasher. Each, in its own way, can be inefficient. Here are some things to try: Either turn the hot water heater down a couple of degrees, or turn on the "energy conservation" setting. Buy insulation for your hot water heater at a local store and insulate the pipes as well. Install a timer on your water heater to turn off at night and just before you wake up in the morning. When possible, wash a few dishes by hand. Over time, that will save a few loads in the dishwasher, conserving energy. Don't pre-rinse dishes. Today's detergents are powerful enough to do the job. Wait until you have a full load to run the dishwasher. Wash clothes in warm water, not hot. The clothes will be just as clean, and you'll cut energy use by 50 percent. Don't over-dry your clothes. That will save at least 15 percent.
3. While it is true that planting more trees will help in the short term because they essentially soak up carbon, they also release carbon dioxide when they die. So it just postpones the problem. But there are other reasons to plant trees—as windbreaks to save energy, and as shade to lower cooling costs. And even the short-term help while we get our act together is a good thing.
As for plants, do everything you can in your yard and garden to create ways in which plants use less water. Choose hardier plants, plant things in groups that need more water and put in mulch to help keep moisture in. When you mow your grass, make sure you do it smartly—with sharp blades, and only when the grass needs cutting. Finally, make sure you water your lawn sparingly. All of these will conserve energy.
Even with our vast reservoir of scientific knowledge about farming, most American farmers still spray a billion pounds of pesticides to protect crops each year. Now here's the kicker: when chemical pesticides are used to kill pests, they also kill off microorganisms that keep carbon contained in the soil. When the microorganisms are gone, the carbon is released into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide. And when those organisms are gone, the soil is no longer naturally fertile and chemical fertilizers become a necessity, not a luxury. But besides going organic—thereby saving the carbon release from soil—there are other simple things you can do with food that will also make a difference: Eat locally grown food. If the food doesn't have to travel far, there's less carbon dioxide from the trucks that ship it. Eat fruits and vegetables in season. Again, that saves the enormous transportation costs. Plant your own vegetable garden. It's not as hard as you might think.
5. This may sound simple, but it takes less energy to manufacture a recycled product than a brand new one. So if you and every other consumer buy recycled, you'll help create a market, and conserve energy along the way. Because many manufacturers don't go out of their way to tout their recycled products, you should know that aluminum and tin cans, glass containers, and pulp cardboard have a fair amount of recycled content. So buy away! Recycled is often considerably cheaper than non-recycled, so it's cost-effective as well as conservation-minded. For instance, recycled paper can be as much as a third cheaper than non-recycled paper. Finally, before you buy, check to see if the product or its packaging can be recycled. The recyclable logo (three arrows forming a triangle) is fairly common now.
6. We know it's difficult, but in today's consumer economy, an easy way to conserve energy is to simply use—and buy—less. Every time you buy something, energy has gone into getting that product to you. So the less you buy, the more you save energy-wise. It's a simple equation.
This last item may, in fact, be the single biggest way to make a dent in the global warming problem. Again, we know it sounds obvious, but buying less things—some of which you just don't need—changes the energy equation across the board, on every single consumer product. If everyone used less, the impact would be large indeed. So how about some specific things? Here are a few: Buy in bulk. In short, bulk items use less packaging, which translates into less energy. Buy one of something, not 21 of something. You don't need 21 pairs of shoes, if one pair works just as well. Go through your closet. Donate or recycle what you really don't need, then make a pledge not to replace everything you just got rid of. Buy quality products that will last longer. Over time, you'll obviously buy fewer products that way. Be creative in what you use for work, play and leisure. You don't always have to buy new products for activities. Re-use in creative ways.

Confessions of a Shopaholic Review
By: Mittie Golding
***
In the mood for a chick flick? Then Confessions of a Shopaholic could just fit the bill. This movie tells the story of Becky Bloomwood (Isla Fischer), a New York City journalist with a bad spending habit. Using the word bad is an understatement; she has an addiction to buying expensive designer clothes way beyond her budget. Her obsessive spending gets her into trouble with a very persistent debt collector, which leads to a series of mishaps and misunderstandings between herself, her best friend Suze, (Krysten Ritter) and her romantic interest, Luke (Hugh Dancy). This movie is a lighthearted romantic comedy, and I believe it deserved better ratings than what it got from major movie reviewers. When I review a movie I evaluate three things: the characters, the special effects, and the story. Regarding characters, I feel that Isla Fischer is a very good comic actor and really brought her role to life a ditzy,shopping-crazy but kind hearted New Yorker. The big surprise of the film was the supporting actress, Krysten Ritter, who plays Becky’s best friend, Suze, who never gives up on Becky, until she’s pushed to the edge. Hugh Dancy is charming as Becky’s British love interest, but it would have been nice to see more romantic chemistry between the two actors. Overall, I give three stars to the actors. According to special effects, the movie features spectacular shots of New York City, in particular, the high-end designer stores. You will also enjoy a very cool effect of store mannequins coming to life in Becky’s mind trying to convince her to buy what she can’t afford. Overall, I give the special effects three stars. Finally, I will review the plot. The movie was based the first book in the Shopaholic series, also titled Confessions of a Shopaholic, by Sophie Kinsella. The story had many unpredictable twists and turns that will keep you guessing. I did feel that some aspects of the story were not that believable, which made the plot less convincing. Overall, I give the plot three stars. Taking everything into account, Confessions of a Shopaholic is fun, somewhat silly movie that’s perfect to see with your best friends. I give the movie three stars. Finally, I have a confession to make as well, one of the reasons I liked this movie so much is that I am a Shopaholic too!

Barack Obama as President
By: Idalys Nava-Monje
I think Barack Obama becoming president has been a really big change in history. It’s a big change in history because he is showing that anyone can achieve what they want to as long as they believe in themselves. When Obama was running, I was already able to tell that his election of president was going to open so many doors to so many people. This election motivated a lot of people to vote for the very first time. The reason that I think people voted for the very first time is because he shows that no matter what race you are, anything is possible. I know that I as a Latina, it inspires me a lot. I don’t see many successful Latino people on the street. That’s probably because people don’t believe in themselves, so that holds them back from actually doing what they want to do. I’m pretty sure that you would agree with me that Obama is an inspiration to all types of people.

Academy of Sciences Field Trip
Niles
On Friday, the 23rd of January, the 7th graders were lucky enough to attend the academy of sciences. The aquarium was breathtaking, filled with amazing fish, including moray eels, an octopus, and jellyfish! Unfortunately, the famous albino alligator was on medical leave after getting in a fight with another alligator. We went to the rainforest exhibit, filled with butterflies flying around, not in cages. There were frogs, plants growing on plants, bats and even carnivorous plants! Upon leaving the rainforest, you were in a glass tube, underwater, surrounded by many incredible species of fish. However, the most amazing thing was probably the planetarium. It was a 75 foot wide dome, lit by several cameras. When looking up from the tilted seats, the dome had the illusion of not being curved at all. The effect of movement was startling, and the graphics were great, although objects that were “close” to the screen appeared slightly pixilated. The information was up to date, and there was even a part at the end that was filled with recent astronomy information. The entire building was modern and attractive, and apparently very eco-friendly. All in all, this was an amazing field-trip.

Brazil’s Abrolhos Bank Doubles in Size
Scientists have recently discovered a new set of reefs about 40 miles off of the coast of the Brazilian city Caravelas in the state of Bahia. A series of volcanic islands and coral reefs, the Abrolhos Bank harbors 30 times the expected biodiversity of the first discovered set of reefs, much of it endemic. One species of significance is the mushroom-shaped brain corals known as chapeirões (big hats). The formation starts in about 100 feet of water, and grow up to the surface. This makes Abrolhos one of the most diverse and undisturbed ecosystems. Also, from July to December, it is an undisturbed breeding ground for humpback whales. Let us hope there are many more discoveries like this!
A Most Illogical Production
Review by Christopher M. Cassidy
As many of you have heard, there is to be a new Star Trek movie coming out soon. After seeing Insurrection and Nemesis, it sounds too good to be true. Unfortunately, that is not the case. In the new movie, the villain is a muscular, bearded Romulan (already two mistakes-the muscles and the beard) who has flat eyebrows (three). Makes you wonder if he’s a Romulan at all. Another big fumble is that, unless I misheard, they changed Captain Kirk’s middle name. If that’s not enough, they have a ship eerily reminiscent to a Stargazer Class vessel (initially constructed in 2216) in the 2100’s. On top of that, phasers are sleek, high-tech looking things, quite contrary to the original series’ hollow plastic boxes. (Goodness me, I’m running out of negative transitions!) Yet again, director Abrams messes up. The Enterprise bridge is sleek, high-tech, and shiny. It has a large electronic status display (nonexistent in The Original Series) in the back, with Chekov and Sulu’s seats switched. It also seems like Spock is, at some point, a bad guy. All in all, with the messed up characters, incorrect technology, death-star like Romulan weapon, abundance of un-Star Trek like romance, fighting, and overload of intense violence, it just seems like an excuse to give James Bond a phaser and a cooler suit. Judging from the trailers, I highly discourage Trekkers from seeing this movie. But knock yourselves out Bond fans.

6th Grade Bowling
By: Idalys Nava-Monje
While the 7th and 8th graders where having a ball at the black and white dance, the 6th grade was also having a ball bowling. First we arrived and got to play against our friends. We then got a little treat, ice cream and soda in a bowling pin cup. Then the competition started. It was advocacy bowl. Each advocacy bowled against each other. Just another “friendly competition.” Madame Gullung Miller’s advocacy won the competition. Thanks to the boys, especially Chris Strong! You won’t believe how many strikes he scored. The prize was doughnuts from Krispy Kreme. The average score for Madam Gullung Miller’s advocacy was 101.1 points. The other score averages were: Yamada:97.8, Utsumi:91.6, Cook:83.5, Colb:92.8, Schiavenza:84.6, and Mugglebee:93. Great job everyone!
