Minecraft Now
Video games are great
and there’s a variety of
controllers and games. My
favorite game is for the
computer, iPod, iPad, and
other devices it’s Minecraft.
Most people like it and there
are different things to do on
it but the most common
thing to do is survive on the
worlds and get achievements.
I like to be in creative
mode because I can do
things I want to without
being killed or running out of
materials.
There are servers that
you can go on and play the
games or help build it. On
your own world you can
build, survive, and play
hardcore mode.
Hardcore mode is when
you have one chance to
survive as long as you can
without completely losing your
health and once you die you
have to delete the world and
start a new one.
In survival mode you
can die and respawn where
your spawn point is or where
you last slept in a bed.
There are different
animals in Minecraft like pigs,
cows, chickens, sheep, and
squids are not hostile
animals. Some hostile mobs
are creeper, zombie, blaze,
ghast, ender dragon,
skeleton, nether skeleton, and
wither are the hostile animals
that will kill you on sight.
There’s the zombie pigman
which if you hit them all of
them around you will come
after you and try to kill you.
The enderman will not kill
you unless you look it in its
eyes or attack it.
The one creature that
you probably want to kill is
the ender dragon because
it’s the ultimate boss and it
is in another dimension
called the end and to get to
it you have to find a
stronghold and activate the
portal to the end. When you
get to the end you’ll
immediately be confronted by
enderman and then comes
the ender dragon that you
can defeat with arrows and
once you kill it a portal
home will appear and the
ender dragon egg will be on
top of it. When you go
through the portal you will
get things saying stuff that
is boring to read but it
means you beat the game
on that world. But no worry
you can still play on that
world and not worry about
the end any longer. But you
can still go to the nether or
the end over and over again.
You can face the Wither over
and over again. The wither is
the nether boss.

Call of Duty: Ghosts
This is a story about two
brothers named Hesh and Logan.
They are 16 and 18 years old and
living happy lives. A US satellite
called Odin was attacked by the
Federation of South America.
Oden was filled with large kinetic
rods. Odin exploded and got
caught in the earth’s atmosphere
getting sucked in by earth’s gravity
Oden came crashing down on the
US. The devastation was possibly
worse than nukes. The nation we
loved was nearly destroyed.
Within a blink the US became a
weak country. The Federation
attacked the US focusing their
invasion in the south. The
Federation captured civilians and
executed them.
The US created a unit called
GHOST to defend the US. Their
main skill was stealth. Hesh and
Logan wanted to defend their
country and applied for GHOST.
Also their father was an ex-marine
and they wanted to follow in his
footsteps.
The Federation had two major
bases: one in Phoenix, Arizona
and one in Montgomery, Alabama.
The US wanted to block the roads
and highways from Dodge City,
Kansas to Edinburg, Texas.
Blocking the roads would cause
supplies to stop getting from base
to base.
Their first mission was to
clear out and take over Dodge
City, Kansas. From Dodge City
they took highway 50 to highway
35, putting a soldier every 20
yards. By the time they reached
Oklahoma City they were running
out of soldiers. They called in air
support to deliver soldiers. They
finally reached San Antonio where
they found a mega base.
Thick steel walls with barb
wire on top surrounded the entire
base. They waited for a cargo
shipment to arrive. The gates
opened and the ghosts slipped in.
The ghosts took over the base and
found nukes. They threatened the
Federation, to leave or be blown
up. The Federation gave up and
went home.. Luke Petrasko

The newest Apple device is called the iMac
Air laptop or the iPad Air. These are the
newest and light devices there are. For
Apple devices and improvement in all of the
products they have come out with in their
business. Here are a couple of great things
about the iPad Air and the iMac air laptop.
The iPad Air is almost a quarter lighter than
the iPad 2. The iMac Air laptop is half the
weight of the iMac laptop. There is
the iPhone 5 SC and the iPhone 5 cs. These
are the biggest screens on Apple phones. I
personally think the iMac laptop is the
handiest thing for laptop there is out
there. It is small and it is like an iPad, but
with a keyboard.
Then there is the iMac it has the biggest
screen for a desktop. It is all built behind
the screen, so it is two pieces the screen
and the keyboard. The keyboard is cordless
and there is only a couple of cords. I think
that the iMac is the most versatile desktop
there is on the market. There are so many
more things that you can do with a
computer.
Some of the things that Apple has brought
out is some of the games they have made
are really fun and are a big hit for kids that
are under 14 years of age. They are easy to
figure out, have great cameras, and are
good for young kids to work on. They can
take one game and bring it to another
device, and you can still be at the same
level on all of the devices. They are great
for watching movies on and you can also
face time people. It is like a piece of cake
for anyone that is trying it out. You can also
take your iPad or laptop and put more
gigabytes in it. You can download websites
and other things. The prices are reasonable
for how good they work. You can set up
timers and stopwatches on them. Then they
send out new updates for your iPad hard
drive. Apple devices are just all around best
electronic I have use. So if I were you I
would go out and buy the iPad air the iMac
air laptop. The best part about Apple
products is that whatever they make will
last the use that you will give it. Like
dropping it and siting on it or kick it will last
the use you put on it.
By next year there is going to be the iPhone
6 coming out. It will be faster than the
iPhone 5 CS and the iPhone 5 SC it will be
one of the fastest phones out there on the
market. But the screen will be a little bite
bigger. But it will have a faster internet.
They are just the all-around best iPhone on
the market. They can all so put in for you to
have to hold more pictures. They hold a lot
of space for how small they are. But the
screen is just amazing. It is one of the most
diverse phone Apple has on the market

Halo Reach
In Halo Reach the time of
this was before the first
Halo but was one of the
late games made. But
basically in this game you
are a new Spartan and is
part of Noble Team and
your job is to defeat the
covenant and save Reach.
Once the covenant first
invaded Reach ONI
basically declared the
command of the
UNSC(United Nations
Space Command)to order
all the Spartans to go and
fight and try to save Reach
but since the Covenant had
more forces they overran
the Spartans and defeated
them one by one. All
Spartans were eliminated
except for Spartan 117
John A.K.A Master Chief.
They shipped Master Chief
on the Pillar of Autumn
before the covenant can
stop them. Every Spartan
fought till they were at
their end of their energy
they never gave up and
they never ever thought
they were going to lose.
They tried as hard as they
can for as long as they can.
In the first mission of Halo
Reach the UNSC sent
Noble Team to investigate
a death. That is when they
figured out that the
Covenant was on Reach.
That is why they called for
all the Spartans so they
wont lose reach. Noble
team had six memebers.
Noble one was Carter the
Leader. Noble two was Kat
the second in command.
Noble three was Jun the
Sharpshooter. Noble four
was Emile the Close
Quarters Combat
Specialist. Noble five was
Jorge the Heavy Weapons
Specialist. And you were
Noble Six the Rookie. In
Reach you go on missions
you didn’t see in Halo,
Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3
ODST. Halo Reach was
the last Halo Bungie made.
Bungie left the production
and the rights to 343
Industries which made
Halo 4. In this campaign
you end up flying ships
fighting in space driving
warthogs and encountering
the worst covenant vehicle
of all you will not be
happy to see it and it may
also be the death of a
Noble Team member. ONI
is in trouble you go to their
swordbase about 3 times in
the campaign and you see
Dr. Halsey and rescue her.
You may have to carry an
A.I. and deliver it to the
Pillar of Autumn and keep
it safe or it can be the
death of the UNSC.
Spartans were invented
and invested by Dr.
Halsey. She started to
make Spartans to first fight
the inzurrectionists not to
fight the covenant but
when the covenant came
they prevailed and maybe
they can save Reach. Halo
Reach has a stunning
campaign that all Halo fans
will enjoy and can be a
huge success for 343 and
Bungie and hopefully give
them ideas for Halo 4 and
keep some stuff or get rid
of them but lets hope they
continue Halo.

So I put it by the fire. it still didn’twork. A couple minutes later my momcaught me putting it in the microwave.“hmm” I wondered, maybe if I ask it nicely.“Computer, Can you please unfreeze?”Nothing. I took it outside and left it in thesun for ten minutes. I contemplated taking itapart with my tool set. But it looked way toocomplicated. Then my friend Braydencame over. I told him about my situation.He said “have you tried turning it off andback on? I stared at him blankly. “what?” Iasked. He went over and pressed a button.The screen went black. “Ahh!” I cried. “youkilled it!”. Brayden looked at me quizzicallyand pressed the button again. thecomputer turned back on unfrozen. I happilyresumed my computer games untilBrayden said”ahem”. I looked up. I decidedto stop playing, I had had enough computertroubles anyway.

So I was looking for a new laptop when Isaw a sign for a computer store:Super lowprices! the sign exclaimed. So I went to thestore. When I got inside I asked the clerk“Hi what’s the price of your cheapestlaptop?” “five hundred dollars Kid” hereplied, “now go away!” he yelledmy computer”. I took it. It was the exact
“What!?!?” I exclaimed. “looks Like I’llhave to find a computer somewhere else” Ithought. Then I saw my grandpa. “Hey!Grandpa!” I called. I told him what hadhappened.

I looked atthe plug, it looked like it had been made onan alien planet. “Sorry Grandpa, but I can’ttake this” I said. and started the long walkhome. As I walked in the door sulkily I said“sorry Em I couldnt find acomwhhhaaaaaaa!?!?! Emma wasplaying on a computer even better than theone at grandpa’s house. “Hi” she said,“while you were out going for a walk, I gotthe newest computer in the world. “but,How?” I asked. She shrugged, “my friendsmom owns a computer factory” shereplied. “Well now it’s my turn” I said. “Noway!” Emma exclaimed. We startedfighting over who got the computer untilEmma’s elbow bumped her grape juice.“Uh Oh!” we exclaimed in unison as itspilled all over the laptop. “What do we donow?” I asked. Then there was a knock onthe door. “Oh no!” Emma said “thats momand dad” But when I opened the door, itwas the computer store clerk. “hey kid” hesaid. “I’m sorry for yelling at you” “So
