News: Russian Scientist Claims Invincibility
Literary device to consider: invincibility and its consequences.
We might as well start the newsletter with the news section.
The secret to living an ageless, eternal life is right around the corner it would appear. A Russian scientist claims to have just discovered bacteria that has enabled him to avoid aging and has allowed him to stave off a cold for a hefty two years. He claims it's been tested on animals, with the obligatory mouse included. Only time will tell if he and the plethora of animals tested upon will survive an inevitable apocalyptic scenario.
While this Tuck Everlasting story may not last forever as hoped by this scientist, it is neat to think that medical breakthroughs are around every corner that will lengthen our lives.

Following years of turmoil that the revolutionary forces protect him from, he emerges a man with a new set of beliefs. On his way through a cross-country trek, he meets and befriends many people with wavering allegiances, some to the revolutionary Hyenas and others to what remains of the government forces. With betrayal and survival on everyone's minds, Dustin takes it all head-on in a last attempt to get to safety.

Short Story
Adventures of Little Peter: March On Part 1
By: Max Masen
Little Peter followed the sounds of trumpets and trombones. The marching band was practicing for their performance during the football game on Saturday. Little Peter knew something else was happening, something far more sinister. The coach of the marching band had left his mistress' house in a hurry. Little Peter had been in a hurry to reveal him for what he was: a cheater. In every marching performance, he had requested that his band go first. Little did every other band know that he had secretly recorded their sessions and taught his band the other groups' routines. He was a cheater in the worst way.
Little Peter cornered the coach when the rest of the band had marched to where they could not see the coach. It was then that the coach tore off his shirt and hat to reveal his evil costume: a leather tunic with a Native American headpiece. The coach pushed Little Peter up against the wall and superglued him to it. He laughed maniacally and marched to meet up with his band, ready to give a performance he had not convoluted himself, a performance stolen from another coach.
Little Peter wiggled hopelessly on the wall. He could not even budge.
Is this the end for Little Peter?
