CRLS students carry a heavy load every day to school, with their backpacks often holding binders, textbooks, agendas, and Chromebooks. Studies have found that heavy backpacks cause back pain and poor posture in the short term and can transform the spine in the long term. The weight and pressure on the back and shoulders are detrimental to the health of the spine and can pose future health threats.

Directed by Felix Van Groeningen, "Beautiful Boy" is a poignant yet heartbreaking illustration of the opioid crisis in America today. The movie was moving at times, but not life-changing. Starring Timothée Chalamet and Steve Carell, the film emphasizes the father-son bond and how love can override logic.

Every Thanksgiving, my dad makes a lot of food. The entire Thanksgiving dinner is my favorite meal of the year, yet there is one dish that stands out to me: his sweet potato pie. I know that might sound basic, but his is so good and has a bit of a sweet twist. I also love helping him make it every year. This pie is soft and sweet, but the perfect side course for a typical Thanksgiving meal. Enjoy!

On October 28th, Jair Bolsonaro defeated Fernando Haddad in the second round of Brazil’s presidential election. Bolsonaro, a far-right former army captain, will be sworn in as the president of Brazil on January 1st. Bolsonaro has been dubbed the “Brazilian Trump” by some, but I find that this comparison fails to grasp just how destructive the President-elect can be for Brazil.

As American politics have become increasingly divisive, it has become easy to lose sight of specific policy issues. But climate change and the use of fossil fuels are issues that all Americans have a stake in; they should be apolitical, and bipartisan efforts to combat them should be of the utmost importance. Gone are the days in which the solution to climate change entailed regular recycling and using energy-efficient light bulbs; the UN’s recent report predicts that humanity is quickly running out of time to prevent an excessive rise in global temperature.
