The Journalism students at Chancellor High School publish The Lightning Bolt, the only of- ficial newspaper on campus. The purpose of the newspaper is to factually inform and entertain its readers. As an established open forum for the student body, truth will be the staff’s major goal. It is the responsibility of each staffer to adhere to the journalism code of ethics as set by the Society of Professional Journalists, Sigma Delta Chi. The code states that a journalist can not accept gifts, favors or privileges that could compromise their integrity. All material pub- lished will be the result of brainstorm sessions by the staff. Subjects stimulating to the major- ity of the student body will be used. The edito- rial board, which is comprised of all newspaper staff members will determine the priority of the stories and the overall design of publica- tion. The advisor serves to give students a better understanding of the functions and ethics of a free press. The advisor does not serve as a cen- sure. Student editors will decide the material to be published. In accordance with community standards, profanity will not appear in the pub- lication. Students are free to express an opinion on matters of public interests under the, “fair comment rule.” Under this rule, the student has the right to intelligently criticize the school and its policies. Editorials reflect the opinion of The Lightning Bolt. Opinion stories reflect the opinion of the writer and do not represent the opinion of the faculty and administrWation of Chancellor High School.

  • Natural Phenomena Around the World
    What are some of the best rare natural phenomena that occur on Earth? What is a phenomenon? It is an interesting fact or even that happens and is typically difficult to understand or explain fully. Below we will learn about some of Mother Nature’s most amazing phoneomena, from Australia’s bubblegum-pink lake and a blood-red waterfall in Antarctica and a US valley where stones eerily move. Let’s find out more about Mother Nature’s natural phenomena. Frozen methane bubbles, Canada They look like flying saucers that dropped into the water and froze, or like jellyfish captured in ice. In fact, these icy circles are frozen methane bubbles – pockets of gas that, when trapped underwater and frozen, form a spectacular landscape. Found in winter in high northern latitude lakes like Lake Abraham in Alberta, Canada, these gas bubbles are created when dead leaves, grass and animals fall into the water, sink and are eaten by bacteria that excrete methane. The gas (methane) is released as bubbles that transform into tens of thousands of icy white disks when they come into contact with frozen water. This potent greenhouse gas not only warms the planet, but also is highly flammable – so the frozen bubbles are in fact quite dangerous. Come spring, when the ice melts, the methane bubbles pop and fizz in a spectacular release – but if anyone happens to light a match nearby, the masses of methane will ignite into a giant explosion! Sailing Stones, US The dry lake of Racetrack Playa in California’s Death Valley, US, is famous for its sailing stones.

  • Normative Interfaces and Discourses in Super Mario Maker
    Loading… The Journal of the Canadian Game Studies Association Vol 10(16): 196-213 http://loading.gamestudies.ca Creating with (Un)Limited Possibilities: Normative Interfaces and Discourses in Super Mario Maker Isabelle Lefebvre Université de Montréal [email protected] Abstract This paper explores how the creative expression of players is framed within Super Mario Maker (Nintendo, 2015). Dispelling the promises of “endless possibilities” (Nintendo, 2015) with which the game is marketed, this article argues instead that a player’s creativity is oriented, limited, and influenced by the interface of the game (its possibilities, and impossibilities), the paratext supplied by Nintendo (advertising, user guide, and tutorials), the reception, as well as the appraisal of levels by the community of players within the closed social platform of the game. In order to analyze this process of “normativization,” the following article begins by proposing an actualization of theories of participatory culture as defined by Matt Hills (2002), Henry Jenkins (2006), Sam Ford, and Joshua Green (2013). From these remarks, this paper also proposes to locate some of Super Mario Maker’s normative elements that have an influence on players’ creations, using as a starting point McIntyre’s work on creativity (2012), Albera’s concept of “amateur-dispositive” (2011), Kline et al.’s “Three Circuits of Interactivity” (2003), and Consalvo’s gaming capital (2007). Finally, this paper analyzes certain recurring motifs found in Super Mario Maker’s user-generated levels that serve to benefit what I call the “paradigm of difficulty,” a pattern well-known within the video game medium since its infancy.

Nevertheless, as the old adage never fails to remind us, “It is better to give than to receive.” One group of women in particular have tak- en this to heart and make sure to carry the love of serving oth- ers with them year-round.
