Az Scoops Sued for 180 million Arenzos
By Lorenzo Avila and Tony Yuan
Olb City Courthouse-On Tuesday, Az Scoops, a company that sells expensive ice cream, was sued by the world's largest ice cream company, Dripping Cone. Dripping Cone alleges that Az Scoops stole many of its copyrighted recipes and then branded them as their own. Dripping Cone also says that the stolen recipes are worth 180 million Arenzos, and Az Scoops denies all charges. We will publish updates as new facts emerge.

Weather
By Mezoir Logan
Temperatures should get from -3 to 12 degrees celsius next week as temperatures start to reflect the start of spring. Snow and ice on roads should begin to melt, but you still need to be careful because all that water will make the roads slippery.

Feature: Omisnan Lanskarin
By Tony Yuan
We interviewed Omisnan Lanskarin, a famous skiing champion.
Olb City Announcer: How did you get so good at skiing?
Omisnan Lanskarin: I guess I just have a natural talent for it, and I have also practiced a lot, for about five years maybe, and I also just focus a lot while I'm skiing.
OCA: What are some awards that you have won?
OL: So I won the ANST (Arenztopian National Skiing Tournament) for the Canopia Wildcats in 1987, 1988, 1990, 1993, 1994, 1996, 1999, 2002, 2004, and 2005. I then won the ANST for the Sitin Salmons in 2008, 2010, 2011, 2013, 2014, 2016, and 2018. I also got recognized by the International Ski Federation (FIS), and was a representative for Arenztopia for the FIS from 1999 to 2005. I represented and won for the Arenztopian national skiing team in 2000 and 2003. I'm also in the Arenztopian Sports Hall of Fame, the Arenztopian Skiing Hall of Fame, and the Arenztopian Winter Sports Hall of Fame.
OCA: Wow! That's really impressive! How has the pandemic affected your skiing career?
OL: Well, obviously I haven't really been able to play during the pandemic, so I never played any games in 2020. I still have been training on my mini ski course that I have at my house, though.
OCA: Well, that looks like all the questions that we have for you today! Thanks for coming!
OL: Thank you for inviting me!
