Ignorance Threatens Animal Welfare

(Above) As with most types of injustice and trauma, the first thing affected is the brain. As women place constrictions on themselves about how they should speak and act, they fight against the part of themselves that sees themselves as equal to both men, but also other women. Furthermore, the contradictions placed on women add a layer of complexity. In young women particularly, as they see how different women act in scenarios, both parties second guess their choices, not realizing that they are trying meet a standard that is difficult to fit within. This causes a lack of self-confidence and heighted anxienty, which can lead to even more consequences.

(Above) So much of the modern world is visual. Poetry doesn’t have to come through just black and white letters on a page; it can dance in swirls and color too. Through this poetry collage, there can be seen contemperorary poets such as Ocean Vuong and Louise Glück. There are 19th and 20th century poets such as Maya Angelou and Emily Dickinson. And of course, there is the newest brand of one-line poetry popularized by Atticus, a pseudonym for a poet who remains anonymous. There is still a whole world of poets and poetry to explore beyond the frames of this one collective photograph. The following list of additional poets I would personally recommend is by no means comprehensive: K-Ming Chang, Ross Gay, Hanif Abdurraqib, Victoria Chang, Sonia Sanchez, Sylvia Plath, T.S. Eliot, Percy Shelley, and William Wordsworth.

(Above) Double standards exist beyond gender roles. A wonderful resource about this topic is the blog Modcast, where English Literature and Language graduate students discuss various novels. In fact, the blog has a section called “Hypocritcisms: Double Standards in Literature,” which is dedicated to various types of conflicting ideals faced by people from all communities. This goes to shows that despite the wonderful steps made to equalize things for various groups, conversations are still happening and progress must continue.

(Above) The cosmetic industry plays a significant role in fueling ageism by perpetuating unrealistic beauty standards and promoting products that promise to reverse or prevent the signs of aging. Many companies within this industry capitalize on societys obsession with youth, often employing marketing tactics that reinforce ageist stereotypes. For instance, beauty brands like LOréal have come under scrutiny for campaigns that seemingly celebrate older women but still emphasize their products anti-aging properties. Similarly, companies like Estée Lauder market their products with phrases like turn back the clock and age-defying, further contributing to the notion that aging is something to be feared and avoided at all costs. Like plastic surgery, topical remedies for aging won’t transform you. Billion-dollar companies aren’t dedicated to making the world look younger. They’re preying on easy insecurities, and we fall for it every time. In 2021, the global anti-aging market was estimated to be worth about 62.6 billion U.S. dollars according to Statistica, and this number is expected to increase significantly in the next few years.

The run included long, flat, straight stretches which gave athletes a more even playing field.

(Above) Charlie De Sena (left) and Zeno Moore (right), both grade 10, are running through one of the drill techniques during practice. Being a wrestler is a lifestyle of dedication and commitment, and it doesn’t come easy. “Traveling, making weight, competing, doing homework at the airport during a delayed flight, getting back Monday morning at 1:00 A.M., and then showing up to school the same day. It’s a grind,” Omer Barak, grade 12 said. Yet, he loves the sport because of the, “Sacrifice it entails, and the dedication…and the hard work you put in shows. There’s no hiding.” This hard-won relationship of devotion is clearly echoed throughout the team. Yes, it’s hard, but that’s exactly what wrestlers love about it. In this spirit, it becomes more than just wrestling. It’s tackling and growing from valuable life lessons.

(Above) The Regal Movie Theater in Oviedo Mall is a local staple whenever the latest movies drop, especially during the summer season when locals need a break from the scorching hot sun. Before COVID-19, the theater was mildly busy, and ever since the end of the pandemic, the theater has not regained that popularity. The best time to go to the Regal Movie Theater in Oviedo Mall is Tuesdays since that is when they have the best deals on ticket prices and popcorn. Shoppers can pair their day with a movie and snack to enhance their experience at Oviedo Mall. In the past, the Oviedo Mall has offered rental space on Sundays for local church groups such as the Palmwood Church. Growing up around the Oviedo Mall my entire life has given me more than a decade to form my opinion on the movie theater. Although the theater has not gotten many updates, it remains to have great service, great snacks, great drinks, comfortable seats, the movies we are excited to see, and good memories are always made.

This Italian restaurant is located in Telluride, Colorado. Inside there is a variety of well-made Italian foods where it is so clear that they put so much effort into every dish. The food is so good that it tastes like it’s from Italy. The servers and the staff are all so welcoming and kind it makes guests want to come back. It is open from lunch to dinner and is an easy place if you need a place to eat during a long day of skiing. Above the restaurant there is a gondola which brings residents and visitors into town, shops, and so much more.

(Above) The inspiration that Star Wars took from Dune is so clear after watching the film. There is the first obvious parallel between the countless desert planets of the George Lucas films, most famously Anakin Skywalker’s home planet of Tatooine and Dune’s desert planet of Arrakis. Then there’s the advanced physical and psychological manipulation capabilities of the Bene Gesserit, a skill they call “the Voice that mirrors the body and mind control called “the Force” that Jedis possess. Both have evil emperors ruling the galaxy, strong brother-sister ties at the center of their stories, and a powerful drug called “the spice” as a popular commodity. There are also tremendous differences. While Star Wars mainly focuses on smugglers and rebels, Dune is a story about feudal aristocracy. It dives into the complex questions of using religion as a tool for politics and the limits of human capability. Star Wars, on the other hand, can seem more like a fairy tale in comparison. It has a greater emphasis on spirituality, with Luke saving the galaxy by saving his father’s soul, and in this vein, it is fundamentally more optimistic.

(Above) Terms like “Humanely Raised” or “Simply Made” might be the most pointless. The USDA will allow of the label “Humanely Raised” to completely be defined by the producer. This process essentially authorizes this phrase for any chicken company that wants to use it. Terms like “Simple” or “Simply Made” hold zero value as well. This term does not have to be checked or verified by the USDA at all, making it just another insignificant word that gets slapped on packaging for the illusion of health.

(Above) It is said that, while gold is valuable, jade is priceless. Jade bangles were popularized by Yang Guifei, a beloved concubine from the Tang Dynasty, who believed her jade bangles accentuated the graceful curves of her wrists. Some believe that wearing jade over an extended period of time helps promote blood circulation due to the gentle weight and swinging motion of the jewelry. While choosing which wrist to wear the jade bracelet is mostly up to preference, some would recommend the left wrist due to its proximity to the heart. Jade bangles, besides being naturally beautiful, are thought to have many emotional and spiritual benefits. The cool weight of it brings one’s mind to focus on the tranquility of the stone on the skin and creates a peaceful state of mind. It is also believed to attract good fortune to the wearer. Strenuous labor to craft this exquisite gem is part of a long and prized traditional culture. The gemstone’s symbolism of virtue, purity, and eternity is something that is cherished in Chinese tradition. As such, receiving jade as an engagement ring has been gaining more and more popularity.

After this section of the activities, everybody moved to the second room where the volunteers made paper flowers to attach to the goodie bags, which include a variety of snack for the children. These bags included a variety of snacks to cheer them up, including chips, cookies, and more. When the children receive these bags, they give hope and comfort that some of them dont get to experience too often. This is why E.S.T.H.E.R. wants every task performed to a volunteers best effort.

Wisdom From the Class of 2024
February 27, 2024
(Above) As simple as it may seem, the origination of the name “pho” is actually more complicated and uncertain than most may think. It is debated that the name actually stems from French vocabulary, as “feu” in French means fire, and this word is used in the name of a French beef stew called “pot-au-feu.” As well as Pho, this is also a dish consisting of broth, beef, and vegetables. Seeing as the French colonized Vietnam starting in the late 19th century to the first half of the 20th century, the theory isn’t completely unbelievable. Other people argue that the name “pho” came from the name of a different brothy dish that Cantonese street vendors sold in Vietnam called “nguu nhục phấn,” which means, “Beef with rice noodles.” It is thought that the name became more and more shortened and simplified over time, at one point turning in to “phấn”, and eventually resulting in the simple name of “pho.”

However, to get the non-descript European city scenes, production had to build the sets from scratch. Head production designer, Nathan Crowley noted, “You conclude that you kind of want to build your own place because you’re trying to achieve, as I call it, ‘Roald Dahl realism,’ which is fantasy but on all his terms.”

Mapping Art History in NYC

March 8, 2023

Even with only three years under its belt, the New York AP Art History (APAH) trip has become a famous part of its curriculum. This year, 31 students from grades 11 and 12 traveled to the Big Apple chaperoned by Mr. Michael Levin, teacher of AP Art History, Mrs. Allie Dunaway, teacher of Ceramics, and Mrs. Lauren Oliva, teacher of AP World History, for five nights. Students of APAH learn about 250 art pieces from prehistoric to contemporary from cultures across the globe. “I love it because we can feel the flow of humanity through buildings, sculptures, paintings and other objects,” said Mr. Levin. The trip is always full of excitement as students are finally able to see pieces they’ve learned about in person, find inspiration in new artistic discoveries, and appreciate the bustling culture of the city. The food is a major bonus as well. A few tips from Mr. Levin on how to enjoy an art museum include, “Be patient. Don’t take pictures (unless you are completing an assignment for the trip or adding to your 250 selfie scrapbook). Breathe and drink coffee. Don’t worry so much about what you don’t see (fomo [fear of missing out]), but embrace the spaces you occupy with open eyes, open mind.” 

(Above) Ziqin Chiodi, grade 11, reflects in front of Henri Matisse’s The Swimming Pool, a room sized cut-out installation in the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) which had been originally set up in the artist’s home in Nice, France in 1952. Matisse had told his studio assistant that he, “Wanted to see divers” so he cut out swimmers and sea creatures and pasted them on a band of white paper, positioned just above his head. Visitors stand in the calm silence of watching liquid in paper form, the bodies and waves breaking through the white light.

The girls have some free time before the large group reconvines to head back to the Hilton hotel to sleep. All photos by Serena Young. (All photos by Serena Young. )
(Above) The Metropolitan Museum of Art (MET) is big enough to spend days spinning around, lost amongst the art from cultures across the world. When students visited, the Greek and Roman statues section was full of artists perfecting their craft. This demonstrates that art is never confined to one medium and can flow elegantly from one to the other. This man is sketching Letona and Her Children, Diana and Apollo, carved by William Henry Rinehart who uses restrained Classicism in showing the goddess of darkness looking upon the goddess of the moon (Diana) and god of the sun (Apollo).
(Above) The Collaboration, starring Paul Bettany as Andy Warhol and Jeremy Pope as Jean-Michel Basquiat, was about a real-life collaboration between these two very different modern-day artists. Students will learn about these two artists as they are featured in the 250 pieces they memorize. Despite the initial apprehension, there were laughs, tears, and gasps during and after this spectacular show.
(Above) The Met Cloisters was full of Gothic style pointed arches which would have been abundant in medival Europe. It is a museum on four acres of land showcasing art from the Byzantine period to the early Renaissance. Within these walls, designed to invoke a monastic way of life, are the famous Unicorn Tapestries, a series of seven tapestries made in 1495-1505 telling the story of a unicorn being hunted in a lush French landscape.
(Above) People say it takes years to book a wedding at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, and LHP’s students were lucky enough to experience a ceremony happening when they visited. Deep, soulful organs accompanied the students admiring the reliquaries just as pilgrims had done when its doors first opened in 1879. The classic Gothic style is evident when stepping in through the door, which feels like transcending into a place above.
