An El Niño winter is coming. Here’s what that could mean for the US
Introduction After several years of relative calm, an El Niño winter is on the horizon, promising significant impacts on the weather during the coldest months of the year. El Niño, one of the phases of the El Niño Southern Oscillation, is characterized by warmer-than-normal ocean temperatures in the equatorial Pacific Ocean. This natural phenomenon has far-reaching effects on global weather patterns. The 2023 El Niño, which began in June and is expected to persist into early spring, is forecasted to be strong, marking a departure from the recent La Niña-dominated winters. As winter approaches, let's delve into what El Niño means for the United States and how it may reshape our winter climate.

My Review of "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor"
The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor is the last entry to The Mummy franchise. It came out back in 2008, seven years after the last entry which I didn't like at all. This movie has some elements similar to that last movie that kind of irked me. Though, this movie feels a little more competent than that last entry, it doesn't mean that this one was good either.

The Blue Tit Travels Africa
'The Blue Tit Travels Africa' is a children's picture written and illustrated by Astra about a small bird. What a way to travel. This is quite the picture book to teach about nature and geography. This bird wants to learn more about other animals in her travels. This is the first of series of books for preschoolers. The pictures are realistic and vivid and will peek one's interests even if to see which animal she meets that is different from herself. If used in a preschool classroom the teacher could write the animal names on the blackboard or on chart paper and learn to pronounce each of them and maybe even have the children 'write' them on some blank paper.

Super Dudes
'Super Dudes' written by Christopher Vigil is a children's book that will have you saying 'Surf's Up, Dudes!' This is the story that is a dream of an island of surf dudes and family that is led by Eddie and son named Raymond teaching him how to surf. Actually it is a story of learning about how to gain a certain aspect to living life in general. This is a story that illustrates some aspects of this sport and of a family accepting what may happen and what has happened in the past and looking for answers.
