You may be wondering how we get all the articles into the paper for your Daily Double. Well let me tell you, it’s quite chaotic. Usually, there are one or two people working together on an article. There may be another who is walking around the room taking a poll. There are always a few that are out of the room, actually getting news from around camp (or just procrastinating and trying to get ideas for articles). Some decide to go on Google and find interesting functions to play with. Others like to research actual events happening around the world so you can actually get some educational information.

Google Doodles/GamesBy Ava Robinson

Hi Everyone! Today, I will be writing an article about Google doodles and Google games. They are the logo for Google. They are called Google doodles.

Also, if you are interested in historians, Google doodles probably has a day for them, you just have to search it! Thanks for reading!

BLAH Uses A Cell PhoneBy BLAH, assisted by Livvy Segall (and Vivian Li)

Today I’m going to do something very fun. Livvy bought me a phone and I’m really excited! Here is the gold iPhone 6+! I’m so excited to open it. I’m going to slam my head into it. That’s always the best way to approach something fragile and electronic. In fact, to wake me up, I always immerse my head in water and forget to dry it off, and it always works! That’s even better for electronics.

Ooh, I see a spark. COOOLL! Oh, yay, my phone. Let’s turn it on. Hey! How about I smash my phone to get it started, up an’ runnin’. That’s what I do people when I’m mad at them. I was taught that it was courtesy by some sketchy, but totally trustworthy guy in prison. Yes, I definitely smash my phone to get it started. Smash! Wait, how come the phone’s front is still dark? Why are there suddenly curly designs on the IPhone? OOOOohhhhh, I like the curly designs. They’re pretty…(goes off in a trance)

(Livvy enters) Hey BLAH, what’s up? How’s your new phone? What’s your #? Can I text- (sees the phone, and BLAH absent-mindedly staring at the curly designs on the phone) (Livvy’s face goes purple) “WHAT DID YOU DO????!!!!!!!” she screams and puts me in the heavily gated place where I go when I misbehave. Later, I saw her leave for the Apple Store.

The Starbucks NightmareBy Julia P

An ordinary day came along on a Tuesday morning where Sally, the Starbucks worker went to work. She arrived early at 5:00 am at her local Starbucks cafe in Boston, MA. When she got to work she got ready with her other employees and decided to make herself a coffee. She made the coffee, got up and cleaned the tables. The doors opened for Starbucks, it was crazy. The morning was really busy with everyone running around trying to keep up with making the drinks. She worked all the way the way through the day and ended up making her way home later that night. After she got home she had a normal night of relaxing, eating dinner, and going on her laptop. She decided that night to go on the Starbucks website and peek around. She got on to the website and adventured around the site, so she could have an update on Starbucks. She came across an artice on why employees should not be drinking any sort of drink or be eating during the day when they are working. Uh, oh she thought….she could end up getting fired.

This Could Really Happen: A Horror Story in 3rd PeriodBy Roxanne Glassenberg Edited by Francesca Lodivico

One day, Daily Double was going about as normal. You know, a friendly argument about Dr. Who in one part of the room, and maybe a heated discussion about Pusheen in another. Walker was working on the Daily Double for today. Suddenly, a student named Francesca came up to Walker and said, “Walker, I’m hungry. When is lunch?” Walker replied, “Well, the bell should have rung five minutes ago, but I’m loyal to Aaron, so we’ll wait.” Francesa said, “Whatever, I have food in my bag.” But, ten minutes later the bell still had not rung. At this point, Walker was surround by a throng of kids complain about their hunger. Because Walker was trying to calm down the group of screaming and screeching kids, no one noticed that Katherine had fainted (from hunger) until Gabi cried, “Walker! Katherine has fainted!” Chautauqua immediately ran over, picked Katherine up, and poured his water bottle over her head. A chunk of the now silenced writers ran over and began to fan Katherine with old mastheads. Francesca was really worried. “Walker,” she said quietly, “Something’s off here. Maybe we should all go outside and investigate.” “Alright,” sighed Walker, who as at his wits end and pretty frazzled,”Let’s try it.” All of Daily Double picked up their bags and trooped outside to check out the situation. As they approached the tent stage, they heard the unmistakable sound of the cowbell ringing. Walker approached a kid holding a basketball and asked him, “Hey, is that bell for the end of the third period?” “What do you mean?,” the boy said, “Lunch just ended. We have to go to Foster Hall.”Bum bum bum...

Ask Harry 7By Rachel Alpert-Wisnia

Hello! So, I only got ONE FLIPPIN’ QUESTION! “Bloody hell!” As Ron would say. So I’ll answer that question.

What do you think of Severus Snape?

My Answer:I always knew he was evil. And I hate him for that. He is a traitor and a backstabbing moron. But, by the end of the series, he did shape up. But then he died. So most of my feelings about him are not positive.

Argh! That’s all I got! So PLEASE submit some questions! I’m the second pouch in the left red pouch thingy. Ok! Stay tuned for Ask Harry 8!

Food at CRCAPBy Mya Grossman

So I went with Photojournalism and interviewed the people who make the food here and asked them about their favorite foods that they make here, and in general and if they could create a food what would it be. The head chef said his favorite food here was mac and cheese and in general burgers and if he could create a food he would make a burger out of cinnamon buns and call it the cinnaburger. One of the other chefs said his favorite food he made was Caesar salad and in general, Ham. He also said if he could make a food he would call it ham and egg.

A Counselor’s Blind DateBy Katherine Lambert

I asked a counselor if she had any stories for the Daily Double. It turns out she did! Here is what she said.

So this counselor was going on a blind date. She went to the prearranged booth and sat down in the seat facing away from the restaurant. When her date arrived, he said, “You can’t sit there. The girl has to sit in the seat facing the restaurant.” “No,” she said. “I can sit here if I want to sit here.” “NO. The girl has to sit in the other seat.” her date argued. Eventually, the counselor sat in the other seat.

When the check came, this counselor offered to pay for it. Her date said he was to pay. “Well, can I at least pay for my own food?” the counselor asked. “Absolutely not.” her date replied. “That is not how it works. The guy has to pay for it.” Once again, her date forced her to take the easy way out and do the totally UN-feminist thing and not pay for her own food.

When they were leaving the restaurant, the counselor’s date went in front of her at the revolving door. Once they were outside, he explained that he did that because the guy has to push open the door for the girl. “Am I not capable of pushing open a door?!” the counselor exclaimed. Then she went on to explain that she was a feminist, and that she was perfectly capable of doing anything he could. She never went on a blind date again.

Nina Rants: Things I Don’t UnderstandBy Nina Kahn, ft. Christine Foster

The 21st century has been flooded with clothes, TV shows, and characters that would later become household names, especially the 2010s. However, some of them just don’t make any sense to me. Here’s why:

Minions: You know, those “adorable” little yellow guys from Despicable Me? I hate them. They’re EVERYWHERE. They’re on Amazon packages, socks, T-Shirts, iPhone cases, and their stupid voices will forever echo in my unfortunate brain. These stupid creatures even have their own movie! What do they even do? Scuttle around screaming BANANA at each other, that’s what. Seriously, stop the Minions.

Miranda Sings: I’m really sorry to you MirFandas reading this, but I highly dislike Miranda. My school/many people my age are obsessed with her and imitate her in the halls, or pretty much anywhere. After a little bit, she gets annoying. Needless to say, that one Noontime show was pretty weird for me. But hey, it was cool that she was there.

Meninism: NOPE.

The Kylie Jenner Lip Challenge: It’s just stupid. People have been injured because of it. It’s pretty obvious Kylie herself got surgery and uses a TON of lip-liner, so if you want her lips, do whatever you want, just don’t mutilate yourself…

Many Dystopian Novels: All due respect to the fans and authors of such books, but I’m personally not that huge a fan. A good portion of the plotlines are the same: “Plain” looking average teenage girl lives in a controlling society run by a mysterious Government (it usually has a capital). Everyone is put into a faction/house/district etc. that builds itself on a certain quality. BUT LO. At a certain age (usually 15 or 16) to choose their life path. GIRL MEETS “~ATTRACTIVE MALE~”™ WITH A TORTURED PAST. Romance and punching things ensue. Divergent, the Hunger Games, Matched, the Mortal Instruments, and like 1000 more. Chill.

Honorable Mentions: Crocs, Urban Outfitters (look it up, they’re really offensive), Nash Grier, Adam Sandler movies, and Donald Trump.

New B&M Dive Coaster Coming to Cedar Point in 2016?By Lleyton W.

Another coaster article. Today’s will be about a rumor that is circling around Cedar Point in Ohio. The solid announcement will be August 18th, so from right now (8/10/15 11:31) another week until it. According to the Sandusky Register Article, a memo from Bolliger and Mabillard was filed with Cedar Point for a Dive Coaster. B&M Dive Coasters go up a chain lift at almost 90 degrees. At the drop, it stops the cars on the edge for 1-3 seconds before dropping them verticaly. Most new ones have a Immelman (half loop into a twist), and some also have a water splash. Since the cars are so wide (6, 8, 10 wide) B&M makes some with scoops on the rear car to make a water tail behind the coaster. A new Sandusky Register Article reported that this rumored coaster will cost $15,000,000, will be 3,625 feet long, 223 foot lift hill, 4 Inversions, and 8-across trains. If this is true, it will brake the record for loops on a dive coaster, and will become the park’s 3rd tallest coaster, beating Magnum, which type is supposed to go high up. I wouldn’t bet on it being built soon, since they just made Mantis, their B&M STAND UP ( yes, you read that right: you stand up during this inverting ride. {a lot of loops}) coaster a B&M floorless coaster called Rougouro. Cedar point have taken down their Good Time Theater, they have a lot of room open for a new ride. So what do you think? Would you ride it if the rumor is true? Will the rumor be true? Find out August 18!!!

Roxanne is a Crisis!

A Rebuttal by Stella Glassenberg and Alasdair MacKenzieTwo years ago, camper Roxanne Glassenberg wrote an article entitled “Alasdair is a Crisis”, which enumerated all her reasons for considering CIT (now JC) Alasdair MacKenzie a crisis. Now, with help from Roxanne’s mastermind sister Stella, Alasdair will list the ways Roxanne is the TRUE CRISIS. Ways that Roxanne is a crisis (with commentary from Stella):Hair crisis (“I have to agree”)Fingernail crisis (“You could say that!”)Sports crisis (“She hates sports of all kinds”)Chip crisis (“She constantly eats chips”)Cooking show crisis (“How come she watches cooking shows when she doesn’t like to cook that much?”)

Here is a story where all of Roxanne’s crisis qualities came together!

Roxanne was flying on a plane to Kalamazoo (who would ever want to fly there?!) and on the plane, she was so mean to everyone. The stewardess brought her a cranberry juice to drink, and she threw it back in disgust, splashing everyone within 15 feet of her. “I only drink tomato juice!” she shouted, while the devastated stewardess cried in the aisle. Suddenly, the plane burst open, and all the passengers were able to float safely away on their flying seat cushions. All of them except Roxanne, that is, because she was standing and unable to get back to her seat in time. She fell out of the plane and landed on a soft spot of ground in the middle of the desert. There was no tomato juice there. The desert animals tried to help her, but she just shouted at them “bring me my tomato juice!” The animals had never heard of any kind of juice, so they were baffled and unable to help her.

THE END

And that is why Roxanne is a Crisis.

Editor’s Note: Nice try, Alasdair, but we all know you’re the real crisis!

Old Building Light SwitchesBy The Switcheroo Crew (Actually only one sad loner)

So I was bored and was inspired to count all the light switches in the Old Building. But before I tell you how many, I will note that this was only in the places where I was able to go and counts bathrooms. Number of light switches in the Old Building: aprox. 45. Before I close this extremely short article, I will note that in one corner there was a switch, then a door, and then another switch right away! Man, is this camp weird…

P.S. Guess who I am…..

Tree climbing reviewsBy Campbell Rogers

The first tree we visited was right out in front of the Old Building. It has red leaves, close branches, and is small in size. Pros: small, easy, fast Cons: scratchy, weak , shortIn all this tree was not worth it to climb. I’d give it a 3/10.

The second tree we visited was on the playground field. It was very vertically oriented and had a bench underneath.Pros: one cut branch that made it easy, bench was also good to step on, nice place to lean in the branches.Cons: scratchy, short, difficult if you are short.I really enjoy climbing this tree but is not very big overall 7/10.

The third tree was next to the playground but not on the playground field. It also had a bench under it, but is was much bigger than the second.Pros: Amazing. big. sturdy. easy.Cons: hard for small people.
