		<title>Space battle for the ages</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Does learning have to be done in the classroom using a book? According to English teacher James Stuck it doesn’t. On Feb. 24 and 25 he tried out a new way of applying what his students read in the book Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card. His first and third hour Honors English 10 classes participated in a nerf war, using strategies they got from the book.
Each battle was between two teams, each started out at a “gate” at opposite ends of the gym. When they were told to go, ...]]></description>

		<title>On the Contrary</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Vampire Weekend’s latest album Contra, released in January is a reigning success. Surpassing their first album in ratings, Contra has been within the Top 5 spot on Australian, Canadian, French, United Kingdom, Irish, and United States charts.
The self titled debut album was a hard act to follow, but the success it brought made the anticipation for Contra worth the wait. Absolutely whimsical is a perfect way to label it; all the songs have a light upbeat feel to them.
In comparison to the first album, the songs aren’t quite as forceful. ...]]></description>

		<title>The Crazies Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the thrilling remake of George Romero’s original, 2010’s The Crazies surprisingly and ironically blew my mind. One by one, residents of a small town began to loose their minds and became mysteriously crazy, to say the least. Attacking family members and complete strangers for no apparent reason turned the first small problem into an international issue. The new problem was not only trying to escape the blood-thirsty murderers, but now having to flee the government’s internment facility. This thrilling film will have you at the edge of your seat ...]]></description>

		<title>Governor hopeful visits Grand Blanc</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Members of the Grand Blanc area were given an opportunity to meet the man who hopes to be Michigan’s next governor, Rick Snyder, last Monday night. Snyder’s team sponsored a meet-and-greet event at Brickstreet Grill on Grand Blanc Road. The event was free and gave local citizens an opportunity to hear Snyder’s pitch and ask him questions.
Snyder started the event by talking about his “10-point plan” to reinvent Michigan, which basically consisted of creating jobs and fixing the “broken government” in Lansing.
Goodrich senior Tyler Owen attended the event and said, ...]]></description>

		<title>Diverse City?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It seems often when Dr. Hammond speaks, she talks about Grand Blanc’s levels of diversity. I can only speak for myself when I look around for this racial and ethnic potpourri, and see lot more white faces than advertised.
“Is Grand Blanc diverse enough?” is the question, but how diverse is “diverse enough?&#8221;
I have friends at other local high schools that talk about the one or two black people they know and it always seems absurd to me, as it would for most Grand Blanc High School students, I imagine. Maybe ...]]></description>

		<title>Cop in? or Cop out?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you can put up with profanity and would enjoy watching an on-screen bromance, then Kevin Smith’s Cop Out is for you.
An unlikely pairing, Jimmy(Bruce Willis) and Paul(Tracy Morgan) are very close partners in the New York Police Department. The movie starts off setting the basis for their “bromance” with Paul giving Jimmy a greeting card to celebrate their ninth anniversary being partners in crime.
The film quickly moves from this tender moment to a harsh, yet comical, interrogation of a Mexican involved in a drug trade. After getting the information ...]]></description>

		<title>An Olympic Success</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The 2010 Olympics started out a little rocky with the death of  a Georgian Luger, but after some adjustments to the track the Olympic games were underway. The lighting of the cauldron included speed skater Catriona Le May Doan, basketball all-star Steve Nash, skier Nancy Greene, and legendary hockey player Wayne Gretzky. Fans from all around the world came to witness their own piece of history as hard trained atheletes put it all on the line for one chance at Olympic success.
