On the Cusp of Tomorrow - Steve Klein

I just read the article On the Cusp of Tomorrow by Steve Klein. The article is on journalists and keeping their jobs in the future because of the changing technology and the fact that print news is slowly fading. Their are new ways of finding the news such as online and podcasts and online videos. These sources can be updated in a matter of seconds wither your updating a video from your phone onto the computer or writing a blog online and putting your opinion out their on news. As well online news can be up to the minute, and have articles put up right away, so people can learn the news as it happens on television or online instead of waiting for the news paper the next morning. Either way though, the news is the news, wether you learn it as it's happening or the next day. Steve Klein was worried about print journalists losing their jobs, I don't see that happening any time soon.

Athletics

...and so it begins,
cougar sports have begun for the year, with a big start to fall sports. Teams have started to be made, and all the fall sports teams have started their try outs, or have commenced their practicing as a team. All of CB's athletes are pumped for the start of their seasons, and are excited to play. CB has some fierce competitors and really want to get their seasons underway so that they can start their OFSAA voyage, we hope.

Colonel By Sports

Many of this year's Colonel By students plan on being very successful in their sports. There are many rumors going around of CB sports having some OFSAA chances. Students are feeling quite confident, only a couple days into the school year. There are numerous try outs starting this week such as Sr. Boys volleyball, Sr. Boys soccer, Sr. Girls basketball, Jr. Girls basketball, Varsity tennis and Cross country running. As well their have been interest meetings, and information meetings for Golf and Guys Varsity Football. As a student athlete at CB I hear some bragging and some confidence towards the Sr. Boys soccer team and their OFSAA hope. These are just some of the fall sports that CB offers. This year we are hoping for lots of student support at home games to cheer on our CB athletes through their fall sports. So come out and support our CB athletes!
