Final grades should be in, so leave the old semester behind and get ready to start off the new one strong!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, onto the issue. There continues to be entirely too much to talk about in News, from Venezuela, to ICE, to a strange conspiracy theory regarding the Kennedys. Over in Student Life, we\u2019ve got some handy pieces of advice on AP classes, and Arts and Entertainment has an array of movie reviews, including <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Primate <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and the recently-released <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">28 Years Later: Bone Temple<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Next up, Opinions is offering some views on Ouija boards, as well as a rundown on the issues with the right to die. To tie it all off, Sports has previews of both the Super Bowl and the Puppy Bowl.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, in case you\u2019ve missed all the posters, VPM Drama\u2019s production of Urinetown is this month! Show weekends are the first two weeks of February, so head on over to their website (<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/memorial.ludus.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">memorial.ludus.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) and snag some tickets before they sell out!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As always, if you\u2019re interested in joining the Sword &amp; Shield, we meet on Thursdays during lunch in room 1716. Our planning meeting for the March issue will be on February 5th. We hope to see you there, and thank you for reading!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><br style=\"font-weight: 400;\" \/><br style=\"font-weight: 400;\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey Spartans!
