This year at Saint Ignatius we see many new faces while walking across the mall or journeying down the hallways. One of these interesting new faces is Brother 
Ralph Cordero, who started teaching math at Ignatius this year. Although he was born in New York, Cordero considers Puerto Rico his home. He moved there at age three, and didn’t return to the mainland United States until high school.
Despite his youthful appearance, teaching is actually a \”second career”

Restaurant Review: Mitchell\’s Ice Cream bringing its old-fashioned creamery quality to Ohio City in 2012
By BRAD HORTON ’15
Price: $ $
Paw Rating: Four Paws (Out of four)
With autumn approaching, it seemed fitting to pop in to Mitchell’s ice cream for a last taste of summer. Ice cream is one of those foods that everyone seems to enjoy, no matter how old.
You can pop into any number nationally-owned franchises (DQ, Baskin-Robbins, Cold Stone Creamery). McDonald’s sells something they call ice cream, although it’s only an artificial approximation of the classic desert. In northeast Ohio, the best place, in my opinion, to get the frozen delight is Mitchell’s Ice Cream.
Mitchell’s Ice Cream started in 1999 with brothers Pete and Mike Mitchell. The brothers had a dream of serving real, homemade ice cream to their fellow Clevelanders. They have searched world over for the ingredients that go into their ice cream and even developed a three-step process to give their ice cream unsurpassed creaminess. One taste of their creations and you know they succeeded. Mitchell’s currently has four locations: Rocky River, Westlake, Solon, and Beachwood. A seasonal operation also opened this year at Huntington Beach in Bay Village. Most exciting for Ignatians is that Mitchell’s is moving their headquarters and opening a parlor a few blocks away on West 25th Street in 2012.
Each of the parlors is clean and brightly colored, and he first thing you notice is the traintrack suspended from the ceiling and the train that travels around it, decorated in Mitchell’s logo. Then you see all the children coloring a picture or chasing each other around the place. They are all smiling, so you naturally smile as well. You wait in line for about five minutes, which is just enough time to decide what you want from their vast amount of delicious options.
The menu offers an extensive array of classic cones such as Rocky Road, Double Chocolate, and Cherry Vanilla. The more adventurous might want to try their special blends. When I stopped in the offerings were Chevre with Strawberries (that’s goat cheese, by the way) and Sea Salt and Caramel.
I opted for the Double Chocolate and wasn’t disappointed. You can fully taste the chocolate as if you were eating a chocolate bar instead of ice cream, and the chunks of fudge are so rich and smooth you can’t help but notice them. This is the way ice cream should taste.
If you want the best ice cream and a great atmosphere, look no further than Mitchell’s Ice Cream. And there’s no reason to limit your ice cream consumption to one season a year.

iPredictions for an awesome iPhone 5
by Bryce Boron ’15
We all love our cell phones. From old to new, internet to non-internet, flip phone to touch phone, we all stand by our cell phones. The iPhone 4 came out recently, but it is not the last installment to Apple’s amazing products. There are many predictions on what the new iPhone 5, said to be coming out in September or October of this year, will look like. One rumor is that it will not be upgraded except for bug fixes. This promised iPhone will look almost the same as the iPhone 4, although it will be a little squarer.
Another rumor is that it will have a slide keyboard. The iPhone 5 will retain Apple’s signature touch screen, but the back will slide down for a complete keyboard.
Yet another rumor is that the screen will be see-through when turned off. If this is true, than you would be able to see what the person is doing on the iPhone from the back. I have talked to three Ignatius men, two of which said they would like it. Even though it is the most extraordinary rumor about the iPhone 5 out there, it seems to be a popular feature.
The new iPhone 5 is due to be introduced either this September or this October. It will sure be interesting to see how people react!
Dr. Michael Modic, Chairman of the Neurological Institute of the Cleveland Clinic is Guest Speaker
The Science department has arranged for a Dr. Michael Modic to address our students on Weds., October 26th in the Breen Auditorium. The topic will be new information and studies concerning brain injuries and concussions. Dr. Modic is the chairman of the Neurological Institute at the Cleveland Clinic and oversees all research currently being conducted by the Cleveland Clinic and its satellite hospitals (e.g., the Lutheran Hospital Spine Center). Some of our athletes (football and soccer players) are involved in a few of those studies.
Last year’s speaker, Dr. Brian Grimberg, gave a very worthwhile talk on the disease malaria and his research at Case Western Reserve University and in New Guinea. Dr. Modic will present his talk twice; once during 4th period and again during 6th period.
Dr. Modic, an expert in brain MRI and all things involving the brain, travels a great deal and has blocked out the day on his schedule for this activity. Currently, he is in Las Vegas testing a group of mixed martial arts fighters who have volunteered for one of the Cleveland Clinic studies.

Betty Williams – Peace Prize Winner
BETTY WILLIAMS
From: http://dept.kent.edu/violence_symposium/betty_williams.htm
In 1976, along with Mairead Maguire, Betty Williams was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her work against violence in her native Northern Ireland. Together, Williams and Mairead founded the Community of Peace People, an organization which is still involved in the betterment of life in Northern Ireland.
But, as Williams herself has said many times, the Nobel Peace Prize is not awarded for what one has done but for what one will do. For more than twenty years she has traveled the world, working with fellow Nobel laureates in trouble spots throughout the world where the cause of peace, and especially the safety and well being of children, is at risk.
Betty Williams Visited St. Ignatius in 2004.
