Trendy Technology Gadgets advance into fashion

ooking into any crowded mall or department store, one can see the prolific nature o f technology. Often overlooked though is the fashion statement made when owning entertainment technology. As prices o f technology continue to fall, teens are now able to grab up the latest techno items ranging from hip cell phones to versatile media players. W ith their continually use o f technology, teens have become known as the "Plugged-in Generation." Teens are more connected with their peers, allowing news to move more quickly. For most teens, listening to music keeps them going. W ith portable media devices making a splash in the market, the Sony PSP and A pple iPod allows teens to take their entertainment on the go. Since the iPod's release, it has evolved into the

iPod Video, a flexible platform able to play everything from the latest Greenday songs to current photos from last night's party to the newest TV episode o f Lost. A dditionally, it has becom e fashionable to flaunt iPods and bling-bling cell phones with the latest Hollister fads. Expanding their independence, portable USB drives have allowed teens to w o rk freely between computers. Besides entering into the portability trend, teens are creating more independent films, songs, and artwork digitally. For example,this yearbook co ver was created using the A dobe Creative Suite. In years past, technologically advanced gadgets were only fo r geeks and the rich, now technology has becom e trendy to wear and use in everyday life. -Kyle Caskey

ffm Batman battles mSm boldly fo r first W e won! W e won first... twice! For the second year in a row the seniors defeated all other classes in the yearly hom ecom ing float com petition. The seniors met at the Superior Pallet Company, where the Class o f 2006 built their float, the Batmobile. Construction started the Sunday before hom ecom ing Friday. However, class officers and general meetings allowed time to plan o u t

the pep rally skit and float before the week began. "It to o k a w hile to decide w hat materials to use," vice president Maranda Bice said. "Once we found everything, we were able to get to work and finish the float fast." Increasing the skit to fo u r minutes made it easier to portray the Dynamic Dogs as the Burkburnett Bulldogs w hile the villains represented the Bridgeport Bulls. -Kyle Marshall

CALLING FOR HELP, Batman played by Greg Montgomery breaks free of the villains' clutches. After the Bridgeport Bull captured Robin, Batman received help from the Dynamic

Dogs. "It was pretty clean to play Batman, "Greg Montgomery said. "The costume was original, the float was great, and the skit was awesome. It was a fun experience."

is scored from 1-5, w ith 5 being the highest possible score. Colleges then award credit depending on that score.

ÂŽ It h a s ta u g h t me to work th ro u g h th in g s th a t I don't understand and to never give up no m atter how h ard it is. ^ -Paul McBroom

The ALPS, o r Advanced Learner Programs, rather than presenting students w ith more d ifficu lt material, like AP, ALPS challenges students to take a different approach to classes using their ow n intuitive creativity and

original reasoning. ALPS juniors and seniors are also allow ed to take an independent study course. This is a real college course offered through distance learning. "This year 15 ALPS students are pursuing college credit w ith tu itio n paid by BISD," ALPS co ordin a tor Sue Kincaid said, "This is a record num ber o f students in any one year. As college tu itio n gradually increases along w ith graduation requirements, students are recognizing the numerous benefits o f earning college hours w hile in high school." -Michelle Alfert and Janelle Goettman

I g i How has AP/ALPS enriched your life? ^ "More opportunities have been opened up for me, because I know that colleges care more about the classes I take than just my GPA." -Kyleigh McKeever

Additional Components Electives expand student interests ■ o help even o ut the w o p lo a d o f academic core classes, students can pick elective courses to fit into their schedule. The purpose o f an elective course is to expose the student to areas they enjoy other than the required core classes o f academics. "I chose HealthScience Technology II because I plan to become a registered nurse and work in the newborn nursery," junior Marti Roland said. "I want to know as much about the medical field as possible before college." The electives allow the students to learn about their particular area o f interest, w hether it is a career-based decision or just a subject the student wants to learn more about.

Varsity Football ✓; Dogs win homecoming game The Dogs began, the season by winning three of the first four games, including homecom ing for the second year in a row. District, however, did not go quite as well for the Dogs; they finished w ith an 0-5 record for district. The Dogs finished with the same exact record as last year, 37. "It would be nice to drop to 3A," coach Bill Dalke said. "Most schools in our district are twice as big and it is going to be tough staying in 4A." Despite the losing record, the Dogs were

dedicated to their sport. T h e big picture is we played hard in district," coach Bill Dalke said. Some games came down to a fe w plays that decided the outcom e of the game. T h e season was disappointing in a lot of ways," ju n io r Nate Brown said. "We should have won at least 7 of the 10 games." Brown, w ho is one of the team's key players returning next season, believes that "Next year is our year."

Varsity Basketball Lady Bulldogs finish a tough season in 4A The Lady Bulldogs started the season off very promising winning the first six games. District did not go as well for the Lady Dogs; they finished with a final record of 57 in district play. "We didn't reach all the goals we had set for this year," Coach Alex Koulovatos said. The main challenge facing the ladies was the teams they were playing. "We played in a very tough district, but our girls stepped up every game and

played as hard as they could,” Coach Koulovatos said. The varisty w ill be losing five seniors this year that have been w ith the program for four years. The team w ill have six returning varsity members from the '05-'06 season. As for next year, hopefully the drop to 3A w ill help the Lady Dogs reach th e ir goal of w inning district and making the playoffs.

Last year, all the teams were com bined into one. But, with new talent and experience, the team has been able to split again into a JV and Varsity team.

Powerlifting iiw

Anticipations weigh heavy on lifters

W ork, reliability, and a passion to succeed are all characteristics needed by anyone in life. But fo r the Bulldog powerlifting team, this list also includes core strength, dedication, and willingness to reach a goal. "These kids are all working really hard this season," Coach Stacy Atkins said. "They're getting better everytime they come to practice. They really want to succeed.â&#x20AC;? Team members had the option o f practicing either after school or during the given class period. "W e have a large team this year, so I hope we'll get to send some kids to

Regionals," Coach Atkins said. Last year the team advanced seven members to Regionals. "After putting fo u r years into this, I've made lots o f great friends at different schools," senior Jared M cCrory said. "I've also gained a lot o f respect from coaches at schools like O ld High and Hirschi." Besides being a way in w h ich lifters can tone and strengthen their bodies, pow erlifting also serves as a benefit to the foo tb all team. Several o f the players play foo tb all in the fall and then pow erlift in the w inter to stay in shape fo r next season. -Shannon Tanner EXECUTING A WINNING squat lift, senior Jared McCrory completes his event at the Childress meet.

Choir, ELC

Returning for a second year as BHS choir director, Mr. Don Cowan focused on bringing the choir together to improve their talents, along with recruiting new members for A Cappella. "The choir, mainly their attitude, but also their musical ability, has improved by great strides," director Mr. Cowan said. “This is due in large part by the dedication and perserverance of the choir officers." A Cappella choir's schedule proved to be busy as the members performed upon many occasions. The group sang for children at the state hospital, international students at Sheppard Air Force Base and made time for a Christmas concert for their

fellow students at school. A Cappella's president, junior Michelle Alfert, traveled to Midland in January and sang her way to fourth chair in the All-State Treble Choir, bypassing many other hopefuls. The Girls' choir worked to improve their music reading skills and learned how to control their voices. Another group that kept busy was the Exceptional Learners Club. Members took part in activities to improve math and English abilities, helped decorate the Christmas tree, and made things to sell. "I enjoy being in ELC because I get to see my friends," junior Lee Foster said.

DURING LUNCH THE A Cappella and Girls’ choirs combine to entertain the high school students with a small performance. "I thought the choir did a really good job," junior Michaela Bergin said. "It added a bit of cheer among the student body." Choir teacher Mr. Cowan

directed the group in singing the school song and the Fight Song. "I enjoyed being able to share a piece of the choir experience," junior and A Cappella vice president Amy Hastings said. The choir performed for all three lunches in the fall. Photo by Marissa Brown

Debate, Drama, fi-Force

Over the course of the year, Mr. Bob Barrow's drama students were hard at work building sets, running lights, and memorizing lines in order to produce some astounding productions. To prepare for their sidesplitting fall production of The Farndale Avenue Women's Guild Murder Mystery, the cast and crew spent hours and afternoons rehearsing for opening night. Debate and public speaking students toiled for hours while pouring over Newsweek and Time magazines, and constantly kept up with the world's current events, in order to build numerous files used in competition. Sponsored by Hardin College Myth #1

principal Mr. Don Fritsche, the students gained worldly knowledge and confidence in public speaking. New to campus is GForce, an organization designed to motivate students to enroll in college. The GForce itself consists of academically prepared high school students who have been trained in college application. "Not only has G-Force allowed me to help others with college," sophomore Leslie Johnson said, "it has encouraged me to pursure college myself." With peers motivating peers, the pursuit for higher education is expected in increase immensely. -Janelle Goettman RESEARCHING ON THE web, senior Chance McCraw further investigates a possible topic for persuasive speaking.

Paige Pearce WHAT MOMENT What moment was it That changed my life like no other? Maybe the one where I found I was to be a mother. Or could it be the moment That nearly stopped my breathing When I saw your little picture And w atched your small heart beating.

Now here we are and once again I find that I can 't breathe, As I watch you grow into the lady I always knew you'd be. I look back over the memories It has happened so very fast. It's all been one great moment, From the first to the very last. -Rebecca Pearce
