2 Khan’s international adventures continue to draw students By SIERRA REAMS SPORTS EDITOR
D
uring spring break, a few lucky students got to travel abroad to some of the most beautiful places in Europe such as Germany, Italy, Austria and Switzerland. The students left with history teacher Sabiha Khan on March 31 and came back on April 9. When asked about the experiences they had, the students had many interesting things to say. Senior Sierra Wilde said, “The architecture in Europe is just amazing. It is really interesting to look at the juxtaposition of so many different periods of architecture.” Sierra’s sister, sophomore Delaney Wilde, also went and said, “The buildings and landscapes are absolutely breathtaking, so be sure to keep your camera handy!” They went to old towns and castles all over Europe. In Germany, they got to hike up a trail to Neushwanstein Castle which was built by the mad King Ludwig II who was mysteriously murdered. Every room in the castle was based on a different fairy tale. “Our tour guide told us a lot about the history of the cities and places we visited. I was surprised to find out that Switzerland is a direct democracy,” said sophomore Mikaela Matkowski. When in Europe, the girls said that they had to pay to use some of the public bathrooms and to get some
water to drink, but they also said the food was amazing. “The food is awesome wherever you go and you can sometimes bargain with vendors for a better price on souvenirs, especially in Italy,” said Delaney. In their U.S. history class, students were studying about World War II just before spring break. In Germany, they got to visit Dachau, the first concentration camp outside Munich. “It was a sobering experience. Everyone was quiet. Some could not hold back tears,” said Khan. Khan also said that this was a great way to teach about the European Union. “My students got to experience the transparent borders, the free movement between countries and the ease of using a uniform currency…the Euro,” she said. Junior Ashley Croney and junior Courtney Bisson (who went in 2015) both think Italian boys are really cute and because of that Bisson would like to move to Italy. Khan is going to lead another trip to Europe in the spring 2017 school year called “Holocaust in Europe” which includes Berlin, Prague, Warsaw and Auschwitz, the largest concentration camp in Europe. Also at the request of some seniors, she is working on putting together a summer trip in July 2017, “Capitals of Scandinavia”. On this trip, students will get to visit Norway, Denmark and Sweden. The seniors want to make it a senior trip, but that doesn’t mean only

seniors can go. The trips in the summer are for 10-12 days. If you want more information about the upcoming trips, contact Sabiha Khan in room 510
during lunch. There is still room in both trips, but hurry because space is limited.

ournalism is more that classroom instruction where we sit around and write all day. We have the chance to travel and build a strong network within the journalism field. This year, we attended the Journalism Education Associations (JEA) National Convention in Los Angeles and competed in their write off competitions. Five of us competed in areas such as videography, reviews, news, and editorials and feature. Seniors Kaylee Zulhke and Staci Trivett received honorable mentions in editorial writing and feature writing respectively. Other than competing, students also attended breakout sessions, learning more about journalism from college students, news anchors, working journalists, and other journalism teachers. “The journalism conference classes were very informative. They taught me new aspects of journalism. The write offs allowed me to break away from what I usually write and help me expand my skills as a writer,” sophomore Madi Morgan said on her learning experience on the trip. Besides working hard and learning new material to better our own newspaper, we
also put in time to enjoy the California sun and take in what Los Angeles was giving us. We went to Universal Studios, visiting the new ‘Wizarding World of Harry Potter’ attraction, along with attractions based on shows and movies such as ‘The Simpsons,’ ‘Transformers,’ ‘Jurassic Park,’ and Minions.’ We also visited the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Santa Monica Pier, and even got to experience celebrity sightings. Yearbook teacher Anna Haines and Journalism teacher Laurie Bender saw ‘Deal or No Deal’ host and ‘America’s Got Talent’ judge Howie Mandel, while the journalism class saw actor and TV host Mario Lopez while he was filming ‘Extra.’ Students worked hard and played hard. Placing at nationals, learning and building a strong connection with other people in the journalism field across the country, and having fun in the sun, it was an experience to remember. “It was a fun, eventful, and educational experience. I learned a lot and met a lot of new people. It’s an experience that I wouldn’t want to give up. If I had the chance to do it again, I would,” freshman Taylor Pipkins said on how the trip was for her.
FCCLA heads to state for the first time and wins big By AMBER PERRY SHENANIGANS EDITOR
There are too many F’s at Kamiakin. Whether it’s FFA, FCA, or FBLA, it’s really all quite confusing. Asking around, no one seems to know what FCCLA stands for. Well, FCCLA stands for: Family Career and Community Leaders of America. “It’s a club about community service (and) helping families, students at school, and anyone in need,” said junior Tristar Davis. From Thanksgiving dinners to Halloween bashes for kids, “FCCLA members have been making a difference in their families, careers, and communities by addressing important personal, work, and societal issues,” said the National FCCLA website. The Family and Consumer science department actually requires them to have a club. “It’s like how marketing has DECA. It’s like the same thing,” said club adviser Cindy Miller. Both Miller and Linda Willingham are FCCLA’s advisers and have been at Kamiakin for over 15 years. Willingham has been here for 22 years but has been teaching in the consumer science field longer than that.
For both, this was their first year having the club compete at regionals or state. Overall, three groups competed: Nicole Turnbull and Alex Cesca, Claire Harper and Hannah Trevis, and Tristar Davis- all juniors. Turnbull and Cesca did a project on the Thanksgiving dinner FCCLA students made for “families that were needy and...made them an entire thanksgiving dinner. They also included the foreign exchange students because they hadn’t experienced Thanksgiving before,” said Mrs. Willingham. The girls placed in regionals and won gold at state. The next group, with Harper and Trevis, used a three-sided board to display the service projects for the whole year, fundraisers, and practically everything involving FCCLA, including member enhancement and recruitment. Davis had her own binder and presentation supporting Occupational Advocacy for implementing superior grief and loss systems in the school setting. “Practically it’s an outline for if a student or staff dies... I hope to show it to Mr. Chelin before the end of the year,” said Davis. “She had protocols that schools

have when they lose somebody and are grieving. She showed what is in place right now and what she thought should be in place since she’s experienced it herself. She wanted to have her input on that,” Miller said.
Overall, Davis, Harper and Trevis both won silver at State. However, FCCLA did a fabulous job in its first regional and state competitions. “All placed and did great!” said Willingham.

Inside the brain of psychology teacher Mr. Bisson By RONNIE HENDERSON STAFF REPORTER
Teacher Tim Bisson grew up in a giant family. He was the youngest child out of 12. Something Bisson learned from growing up youngest in a big family was to get to the food table fast. “I didn’t mind a big family. We didn’t grow up at the same place and time,” Bisson said. Bisson was originally from Benton City and has no plans on leaving the area. Bisson stays very active at school as an adviser and coach. For example, he is the adviser for Link Crew. “I like it. I like how you have upperclassmen helping to get lowerclassmen involved into high school,” Bisson said. Bisson likes watching college football, and his favorite college football team is the Cougars from Washington State University. Bisson used to play basketball, too. Some of his favorite hobbies are fly fishing and backpacking. He likes to do anything that’s outdoors. Bisson also likes reading. His favorite books are ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’ by Harper Lee and ‘Da Vinci
Code’ by Dan Brown. Bisson’s favorite movie is ‘Shawshank Redemption’ directed by Frank Darabont. “I really like the oldies,” he said. Some of Bisson’s other favorite things include eating lasagna and wanting to travel to Italy. His favorite holiday is Thanksgiving. If Bisson could be any animal, he would want to be a tiger. One of his favorite quotes is “Having it all together is like eating one and for all.” Bisson is also the coach for girls’ softball and cross country. He helps out on the girls’ basketball team. Bisson said his goals that he wants for the softball team are, “I want my girls to work hard every day, work to become a better individual and better as a team, to come together as one,” he said. Bisson would love to teach a variety of grades, but the classes he teaches this year are senior only. “I love to teach either freshmen or seniors, but with what I teach, the school district says it’s only seniors. I had a freshman class last semester and loved it. I miss my freshmen,” Bisson said.

The uberfication of Journalism By ANDY HA EDITOR-IN-CHIEF
U
ber, a transportation company that is used by the means of an app on a smartphone, has become a new trend and a new way of getting around in the big city. Uber drivers use their own personal cars, which is a huge benefit, considering how much cleaner that is compared to a taxi. It is an affordable way to travel around the city, which was a huge plus for our journalism class when we went to Los Angeles. The experience is definitely something to remember. I personally heard a lot of interesting stories. I had drivers who also worked in
a wide array of fields. There were four experiences that I truly remember and were quite delightful. One was a private investigator who worked as a driver to help pay child support. Another was a graduate student studying to become a radiologist just working to make some extra money. The third one was professional poker player who worked as an Uber driver for fun, and the last one was a middle school teacher who worked for some extra money because he moved from Arizona to California. Sophomore Madi Morgan enjoyed her experience with Uber as well. “My first Uber ride was somewhat sketchy, but after that I learned that

Star Search 2016: small yet successful

The search for stars is over. The winners from Star Search were Austin Kirk with best instrumental, Emily Baer with best vocals, Natalie Draper with best variety and Jade Leliefeld with best of show. The Star Search performance was on April 14. Out of 13 contestants, the four that won are now able to move on to All City which is on May 18, from 6: 30-9:30 pm at Kennewick High. Sophomore Scott Critchfield performed with Austin Kirk by playing the Cajon, a type of drum. The song the two boys performed was called “Hold On” written by Kirk himself. “We might change the structure of the song a bit, but that’s something Austin and I have to work on for the all city performance,” said Critchfield.
Junior Emily Baer was the winner for best vocals. She performed “Piece by Piece” written by Kelly Clarkson. “Something I’ll work on for all city is my breathing techniques,” said Baer. Baer said she was used to going up on stage, but she still gets nervous. “It’s nerve racking because there’s that chance you might fail or mess up,” Baer said. Sophomore Ridley Leliefeld was the winner for best of show. Her song was called “Acid” which she wrote herself. Contestants who have won and move on to All City normally have to perform the same act, but Leliefeld’s song had drug references in it. For All City, she’s writing a new song to perform. “I’ve been singing since I could talk, and I’ve never had lessons in my life,” Leliefeld said. Junior Natalie Draper won the best variety. Her performance was signing to “Car Radio” by Twenty One Pilots. When asked how she was able to learn to sign her song in three days she said, “Holy smokes, it took an incredible amount of practice. First I had to memorize the lyrics. Then, I had to create a gloss (a written ASL to English translation) for the song.” Draper viewed many different videos of people signing the song so she could verify her translation. “After listening and signing the song for what felt like the 50,000th time, I was able to get the hang of it and could fluidly sign the song,” she said. This year there weren’t many people who tried out to be in the show, so there weren’t as many contestants as the previous year. Even so, the 2016 Star Search was a success, and everyone had a great time performing.

7 Should health classes be teaching sex ed? OPINION & EDITORIAL
Pro: Abstinence sex education is a more beneficial program By MADISON MORGAN STAFF REPORTER
S
chools across the country have debated whether sexual risk avoidance (SRA) abstinence or sexual risk reduction (SRR) comprehensive sex education would benefit students. The Kamiakin sexual health curriculum is abstinence based and teaches students about the risks of sexual behaviors. Abstinence based sexual education is a more beneficial program for students because it teaches them the risks of engaging in sexual behaviors, while sex ed teaches students how to have safe sex, not about its risks and associated sexually transmitted diseases. “There are vast differences between SRA abstinence education and SRR comprehensive sex education. Abstinence-centered educa-
tion believes teens can and increasingly do, avoid sex. Discussions empower teens to make the healthiest sexual decision which is to abstain, regardless of their previous sexual experience. By contrast, SRR assumes that teens can’t or won’t avoid sexual experimentation; so much of their time is spent talking about sex - using condoms and other forms of contraception with a view to simply reduce, rather than eliminate, sexual risk for teens,” said the National Abstinence Education Association.
Abstinence based sex education teaches students the diseases and health risks associated with sexual behavior. While a condom is 98 percent effective, though in situations in which one breaks or mistakes are made, then 82 percent effective, abstinence is 100 percent effective in preventing pregnancy among teens. “Women who abstain until their 20s… may have certain health advantages over women who do not. They are less likely to get STDs.
Being abstinent is nothing to be ashamed of. Photo courtesey of pinterest.com.
Because they are less likely to get an STD, they are also less likely to become infertile or develop cervical cancer,” said family planning organization Planned Parenthood. Whether or not schools implement SRA abstinence or SRR comprehensive sex education is influenced largely by surrounding political and religious views. “I feel like obviously Eastern Washington is a pretty conservative area and religion is a really big thing here, and I think sometimes premarital sex and things like that are looked down upon here. But I think as a whole, society’s deemed any sex before marriage as being bad and risky, so [abstinence] has always been taught in a lot of schools,” said junior Skyler Miller. The Healthy Youth Act
(HYA), which was passed in 2007 and went into effect in 2008, delegates the district’s local school board the power to decide whether schools abide by SRA or SRR sexual health curriculum. “The difference is clear. The focus of SRA education is to empower teens to avoid risk by making good health decisions, regardless of their sexual history, in contrast to so-called comprehensive sex education that sets the bar much lower, assuming teens will engage in high risk sexual behavior and focusing merely on reducing the risk of that behavior,” said the National Abstinence Education Association. While SRR may teach teens how to have safe sex, SRA teaches students the risks of engaging in those sexual behaviors.
youths. This teaches that girls who have participated in sexual activity are dirty and inferior to those who haven’t. This can lead to low selfesteem and possibly mental illnesses. Abstinence only education
causes more harm than good by spreading lies about contraceptives and even affecting the mental health of many students. This type of education should be replaced with accurate sexual education.
Con: Abstinence based sex ed causes more harm than help

S
tates and school districts that preach abstinence only education spread falsehoods to spread the use of this unsuccessful form of education. “Abstinence only education delays sexual activity until adulthood,” they say; false. “Abstinence only education reflects the American values,” they say; false. “Our curriculum is accurate and unbiased,” they say; false. “Virginity pledges protect young girls from pregnancies and STIs,” they say; false. One main argument for abstinence only education is the idea that it delays sexual activity until the students become adults. The U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services has proved that youths who receive abstinence only education are “no more likely to delay sexual initiation, to have fewer sexual partners, or to abstain entirely from sex.” Many federally-funded evaluations on this type of education have also found that
students who were taught abstinence only are significantly less likely to use contraceptives when they do partake in sexual activity, leading to possible pregnancy or STIs. The teen pregnancy rate of 2013 was nine percent and is dropping as less schools teach abstinence only. Another point preached to the world is that abstinence only matches up with the current American values. This lie would state that most individuals, on their own, wouldn’t take part in sexual activity until they get married at around the age of 25. According to public health reports published in 2007, the average age of sexual initiation is 17, while the average age of marriage is 26. This huge gap shows how inaccurately abstinence only lines up with American values. As a way to broaden the use of this already too popular form of education, the lie of “we only teach accurate and unbiased information” is spread to millions. Eleven
different curriculums used by 69 different organizations in 25 different states contain unproven statements, subjective conclusions, and also spread outright falsehoods. The falsehoods include referring to a 43 day old fetus as a “thinking person,” claiming that condoms fail up to 30 percent of the time, and insisting that 10 percent of women who have an abortion become sterile. All of these “facts” have been proven false. The idea that virginity pledges are overwhelmingly successful is also spread falsely through the abstinence only curriculum. While the girls who take these pledges do delay sex short term, when they do participate in sexual activity, they are 30 percent less likely to use contraceptives. These pledges do not only increase the risk of pregnancies and STIs, but they also are incredibly damaging to girls today. It forces the mentality of “a girl is only good if she’s a virgin” upon today’s

What we think...
“
It is common that a guy asks a girl and people go to prom with dates, but in 2016 it shouldn’t matter whether someone has a date or not and who asks who.
”
Why girls should be able to ask guys to prom
W
hen people think of prom, they think of a magical experience. They think of tuxedos, dresses, limos, and dancing the night away like Cinderella. It is common that a guy asks a girl, and people go to prom with dates, but in 2016 it shouldn’t matter whether someone has a date or not and who asks who. If you want to go with someone, ask them, whether they are male or female. A group of friends could also go together, sans dates. For prom, usually guys ask girls. It is a given and is common throughout the years that the guy asks the girl. But nowadays, that is not the case. A girl should be able to ask a guy without feeling that she is emasculating him or feeling embarrassed for asking a guy. “A lot of girls are asking guys this year. I think it’s great because it is no longer weird to do it. There are not really any traditions for it anymore,” said sophomore Naomi Banuelos, who is attending prom this year. Girls have every right to ask if they want to and shouldn’t have to wait to be asked. Waiting to be asked would be dreadful and could end up not making the overall experience enjoyable. Also, it is completely fine to go
to prom without a date. Go with a group of friends. It’ll be more fun that way than to force yourself to find a date and go with them, only to not enjoy it. You’ll be worrying more about finding that date, and the prom experience would not end up being what you expect it to be. “There is nothing wrong with it. If anything, it makes the experience more fun. As long as you enjoy yourself, it shouldn’t matter,” Banuelos said on going to prom with a group of friends. Rather than going with a stranger, going with friends will be the safer route. It’ll be a guarantee that you’ll have fun, and the only thing that matters is having a good time. It’s never too late to decide what to do for prom. The important thing is not missing out on this once in a lifetime experience. So whether or not you ask someone or hang out with a group of friends, prom is too important to miss. It would be better than staying home and later regretting it because you see friends having fun and putting it on Twitter, Snapchat, and Instagram. So instead of waiting and sitting around and being a damsel in distress, be your own knight in shining armor and do what you want to get that prom experience.

Has body shaming gone too far?
By KACEY OWSLEY STAFF REPORTER
Body shaming has been around as long as corsets and wigs but lately with the help of social media, it has gotten more dangerous and more ridiculous. The internet is a big part in attaining knowledge. Most internet users are children ranging from as young as 10 to adults. The random videos, pictures and posts on all social media are influencing girls and boys of all ages with negativity known as body shaming challenges. These challenges are made to be unachievable to make a select few feel good about themselves. The latest body shaming challenge of 2016 is the “paper thin” challenge. The object of this challenge is for young women to pose with a regular piece of paper vertically across their waists to see if the paper covers their waists. They say if you’re “paper thin,” you are not considered overweight. This challenge is unrealistic and hurtful to a lot of healthy girls and young women. Another challenge is the “collarbone” challenge. This is where

people balance as many coins as they can to create a stack of coins on their collarbones. If they can create and balance a perfect stack on their collarbones, then they are skinny, but if not they are obese and unattractive. This challenge shames a lot of healthy women across the world and degrades beautiful women to think they are not pretty. The last challenge is the “belly button” challenge. This degrading challenge is where individuals are thin enough to reach around themselves and touch their belly buttons using barely any effort. The people who can actually do this challenge are just more flexible and have special qualities like being double jointed. This challenge is the most difficult to achieve, and people are shamed for not being able to do something that isn’t normal. These challenges should not be taken seriously by anyone. They are not to boost your confidence. They are to degrade and embarrass people who are unable to do the challenge. Body shaming should not be allowed into society at any point. Will our generation be able to stop this hate?

Although this is important, it’s not the only factor in making a successful team. Coach Ryan Carter has been pretty positive throughout the season so far. “I feel very optimistic at all levels. We’ve got some really strong seniors and some really good classes back to back. So for the season as a whole, we are pretty optimistic and upbeat about

it.” Carter has put all his faith into the strength of his team. The team has done some team bonding in order to be a strong, united team. Team bonding is a big deal for any sport. It’s about making sure that your team is a whole inside and outside of the sport. Senior Brandon Searls explained that baseball has a tradition for their team. “We have team dinners
before every game.” Besides bonding during games, Searls said other bonding times are essential. He said that for their teams, they hang out at someone’s house and play sports. For a lot of senior baseball players, this is their last year of playing with people they are familiar with. This last remaining season is a big deal for many of them. Senior Mikie Jones
and she appreciates the guidance her coaches have given her. Donais has received many awards and accomplishments during her time in track over the past four years. At the Pasco Invite this year, she won Athlete of the Meet. She won the Arcadia Invitational, wich is one of the biggest track meets in the nation, and she has wond many more awards besides these over the years. “My proudest moment was winning state last year. Being the only athlete to win four gold medals at state was pretty cool,” said Donais. There is a common belief that track is more of an individual sport, considering many people participate in the events by themselves, but that is not the case. Donais said, “One thing
I love about track is how it’s team oriented. It’s very friendly. You get to know a ton of people. I also like the pressure track puts on myself and getting past that pressure and succeeding.” Participating in such a competitive sport can sometimes be very difficult for an individual. Donais said, “One trial I had to overcome was keeping the motivation up. You get to Monday and you know it’s a hard workout day and that it’s going to kill you and make you want to cry when you get home.” Even though it may have been difficult at times, Donais hasn’t allowed that to hold her back. She works hard towards her goals and as a result accomplished a lot along the way.
said, “I’ve been looking forward to this my whole life and now that it’s here, it’s really weird to think about. I mean looking at it now, the season and school year are almost over, and I can’t believe it.” Coach Carter was asked what lesson did he want to teach his players this year and his response was, “We want to teach the team that baseball is a vehicle to being better people. It also will prepare them for the real world when they leave high school. We teach them that home plate never moves and to be tough mentally, emotionally and physically.”

enior Heather Donais has been participating in track and field for her entire high school career. She’s accomplished a lot in the time span of four years, and her talents have flourished as they’ve been developed. Donais plays both soccer and track, and she has worked hard in both sports to complete her goals. One such goal that Donais has for this track season is to break the records. The open one, the open two, the four by one, the four by two, 300 meter hurdles, and 100 meter hurdles are all the events in track that Donais participates in. From being in these events in track, she’s learned that being a leader is a really big part of this sport,

The history of ‘Promposals’ By TAYLOR HUNZEKER STAFF REPORTER
A
promposal is when someone asks someone else to prom in a special way. Promposals can go from a creatively decorated sign to an alarm clock going off at 3 a.m. with the words “Is it too late to ask you to prom?” The first ever promposal cannot be recorded but the first ever use of the phrase in the newspaper was in 2001 in the Dallas Morning News. The article talked about how charming the new phenomenon was. One example that the article talked about was some students rewriting the song “The Wedding Song” by Adam Sandler. The promposals increased in popularity in 2005 with billboards, handmade signs, balloon filled cars, and even announcements on planes.
In 2007 is when promposals really went viral. Facebook opened to highschoolers, Twitter and Tumblr were founded in the years of 2006 and 2007. With the new social medias, promposals became more elaborate and publicized During prom season in 2011 there were 20,000 reported prom videos uploaded on social medias. As of April 2014, there were 40,000 videos tagged with “promposal” and an additional 900,000 videos with either the tag “ask cute” or “prom proposal.” One outrageous example is a student from Texas named Mike Ramirez asked a Houston,Texas cheerleader if he could get 10,000 retweets on Twitter, would she go to prom with him. She said she would. He was able to get the 10,000 retweets. Promposals only increase in creativity over the years.

Girls wearing tuxes no longer taboo By CHLOE GRUNDMEIER EDITOR-IN-CHIEF
P
rom has been a staple in American high school culture since the early 1900s. When this dance was becoming more popular, the unwritten rules were very strict, and very gendered. The boy always asked the girl. The girl always wore a dress. The boy always wore a tux or a suit. Nobody went to the dance without a date. Nobody went to the dance with just a group of friends. In 2016, all these strict ‘rules’ are becoming less absolute. In the 1940s, a girl wearing a tux to prom was nearly unheard of. Today, it is much more normal. Senior Vivian Thielemann wore a tux to prom when she was only a sophomore. “I wore a tux to prom when I went with my best friend as a sophomore. I feel a lot more comfortable not wearing a dress because of both body image and my gender and sexual identity. When it comes to dresses, I’m neither confident nor comfortable in them,” she said. Thielemann is not the only one to prefer tuxedos to dresses. Senior Lindsey Pfeiffer also agrees tuxes are
more comfortable than dresses. “I like tuxes a lot more than I like dresses. I feel a lot more comfortable in them. I’m more used to wearing pants rather than skirts so a tux is closer to my regular wardrobe,” she said. Many schools don’t allow girls to wear tuxedos to prom; they enforce a strict dress code requiring all girls in attendance to wear dresses. “When it comes to these dress codes, all I can say is that you’re restricting their freedom of expression. Growing up, kids are always told to be themselves and they can become anything they want as long as they try. But when it comes down to how they want to dress, kids are shut down and that’s inexcusable,” Thielemann said. Senior Dylan Cauraugh would feel completely comfortable going to prom with his date wearing a tux. “Girls should be able to wear a tux if they want. It’s her body and her choice what she wants to wear,” he said. He also agrees the dress coded dances are wrong. “You shouldn’t be able to deny someone to wear a style of clothing that they want based on their gender. Let people be who they want to be and let them wear what

they want to wear,” he said. Whether she wears a tux or a dress, a girl should never be nervous about what she’s wearing. “My whole high school career, I’ve been open about my sexuality and personality. Not once have I been ridiculed or bul-
lied for it. Kamiakin is such an accepting school for everyone from gender, to religion, to race, to sexuality. I’m proud to be who I am and wear what I want,” Thielemann said.
Prom then and now: the major differences By TAYLOR HUNZEKER STAFF REPORTER
Strapless dresses, nice limo rides, and extravagant venues are what make the prom experience the most memorable in today’s society. Prom proposals have become more like master pieces as the years go by and not attending prom is a bigger deal now than it used to be. In fact, it’s more acceptable now for people to
go with friends in order to not miss this event. Not having a date for prom is more acceptable now than it was 30 years ago. A typical prom dress in the 1980s was not like the dresses we have on show today. It could have been long or short, but most of the time it did have short sleeves or no sleeves at all. Ruffles and feathers were popular to add to the dress or even to a
girl’s hair style. Today, prom dresses are more expensive and show a lot more skin. Even men’s tuxes are more expensive than what they used to be. Also, limos are one of the popular ways to attend the magical night and that adds even more money to someone’s budget. In the past, it was special to get your dad’s nice car for the night. Prom venues started out in gyms and cafeterias and

now they are at parks, carousels, and hotel ballrooms. Creative themed decorations that don’t always look handmade can be seen hanging from ceilings and tables adding more thought to the dance. Creative prom proposals and making posters are the norm in today’s society. In the past it was acceptable for a guy to walk up to a girl and ask her to prom with a single flower. Now it is considered more special and more fun when someone asks a classmate with a poster saying, “You would be my winning point at prom” hanging from a soccer goal post. It is more memorable when someone asks you in a special way and that’s why as the years go by, more thought is put into the promposal. It has never been required for someone to go to prom but now a days, not going to prom is a big deal. Not going to prom is missing out on the one dance that means the

best night of senior year. Back in time, not going to prom meant that you didn’t have a date. Going to prom without a date or at least a group date was unnatural and wasn’t as normal as it is today. Prom is still a big deal in high school no matter how much time has passed. Prom may be more expensive than it was 30 years ago, but it is still one of the most anticipated events in a student’s senior year.

I’ll Be There
Photo courtesy of the-arcade.ie
BY: Holly Goldberg Sloan By EMILY BAER NEWS EDITOR
Nearly everyone has heard a story about love at first sight, but there aren’t very many about love at first connection. ‘I’ll Be There,’ by Holly Goldberg Sloan, is the story of Emily Bell and Sam Border. When their paths converge, they both undergo a life changing experience that will not only affect them but their families, also. As they nurture their growing connection, obstacles are thrown into their path that could endanger the lives of the ones they love. Clarence Border is the father of Sam and Riddle, and he has a severe case of schizophrenia and paranoia. As a result of his mental illness, Clarence, with his two sons, moves from state to state whenever there’s a sign of trouble. Sam watches after his younger brother, Riddle, who is very sick, while their father steals anything he can get his hands on and tries to make sure that they have enough food to survive. When Sam and Emily meet during a chance encounter, they immediately feel a connection. As they get to know each other and fall deeper in love, Sam realizes that there’s more than the life he’s been leading. The Bell family takes Sam and Riddle under their wing and shows them what it means to be a family, but their time together won’t last when something unexpected is thrown their way. This novel had a great story that had incredible potential, but it was destroyed by the author’s writing style. Told in the third person, the author jumps from point of view to point of view so often that it becomes unclear who the narrator is. In the beginning, the story is told through the eyes of Emily and Sam, but as the plot develops, Sloan includes minor characters as narrators. The reader may often be confused as to who is telling the story because of this. These techniques resulted in the story lacking its full potential.

Disney’s ‘Zootopia:’ End of Frozen’s reign By ANDY HA EDITOR-IN-CHIEF
After 29 months, the reign of ‘Frozen’ has finally ended. A new Disney animated film is now taking over, and that movie is ‘Zootopia.’ It is truly a great watch for everyone. Kids will love it, and parents will definitely enjoy it more than ‘Frozen.’ ‘Zootopia’ takes place in a society where wild animals have become domesticated and live in peace and harmony. The predators live among the prey, and they coexist within the world. The film revolves around Judy Hopps, voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin, becoming the first rabbit to join the police force. In the film, Hopps has to help in a kidnapping case and ends up making a discovery of secrets hidden from the public and saving the society. The film’s plotline is well written and the themes are spectacular. The film’s themes about prejudice, stereotypes, and acceptance are extremely inspirational and are relevant to the issues in today’s
society. It has a lot of cliché moments which gets a little overbearing, but it’s a Disney film, so that’s to be expected. There were some moments that were unnecessary in the film, such as Shakira’s character, Gazelle, who is a pop star, showing up at random times to talk about how she wanted the problems to stop and being a pity celebrity. Only did it make sense in the end for her to show up, where she sang the film’s song, “Try everything.” The film does a fantastic job with a lot of things, such as the animations, comedic timing, and sequence. It is the perfect family film. This wholesome film can also be great for a date night.

Forever Strong: the story of a family’s redemption By SIERRA REAMS SPORTS EDITOR
Family means a lot to people, especially when it comes to sports. The team is a second family from the minute the player gets on the field. ‘Forever Strong’ shows that even though one may not be related by blood, family is everywhere. Rick Penning is the star of his dad’s rugby team which has gone to nationals but hasn’t won against one of the top teams and their rival, Highland. When Rick goes to a party and ultimately drives drunk, he was responsiblie for

injuring his girlfriend and as a result, he must enter a juvenile detention center. While in the detention center, one of the parole officers notices Rick who is then offered a position to play for Highland. By doing so, he may be able to leave the detention center sooner than expected. Once Rick joins the team, he learns the meaning of family, being sober, and respect. They do the ‘Haka’ before every game to call on the spirits of past players and the family and friends that have been lost. In the end, Rick has to choose to play for his dad’s
team or Highland in the championship game, a decision that may cost him his new family. Even though this movie contains underage drinking and taking drugs to get ahead in the game, it shows that one can recover from it and come out on top with the right mindset. ‘Forever Strong’ is an incredible and inspirational movie. It contains love, loss, and the ability to overcome difficulties that are put in a person’s way.

‘The Deer Game:’ one dollar, wasted time By T.J. ROLES STAFF REPORTER
‘
The Deer’ is an independent game developed by Fabio Ferrara and Giulia Airoldi and published by Chubby Pixel. Released on Dec. 2 on the PC software for games, Steam, this single player game places you as a deer during the Pleistocene epoch (Ice Age) and is meant to be an educational game. The problem with it is its gameplay. Although there is fact emphasized in the game, you can’t learn much with five minute’s worth of gameplay. A 2D side-scrolling game with short minigames and okay graphics, there aren’t many good
things to state about this game that’s worth one dollar. There are games with better gameplay for half of what this game is worth. This game has a very unreasonable price. Asking for one dollar for five total minutes of gameplay is not right. Some would say there is a lot more to this game, that it has a “deeper” meaning, and that may be true but that would require one to use their imagination to make five minutes of game impactful. People who have played this game feel like it has changed them, when there are only facts and no story. If one ever reads through the reviews of this game on Steam (which is 67 percent positive), do
not pay attention to the “it changed me” reviews. All there is to it is walking around learning facts about deer in the Ice Age. The graphics presented in this game aren’t as good as games like ‘Fallout 4’ and ‘Call of Duty’ (which is expected from a game worth a dollar), but they could be a little better and actually have longer gameplay. This is not a game for people looking for an amazing journey. The only real journey you’ll have is figuring out how to get it refunded.
‘Summer in the Winter:’ The reinvention of Kid Ink By ALEJANDRO STAFF REPORTER
ANDRADE
Kid Ink started off as a DJ under the name DJ Rockstar. He dropped a couple of mixtapes with beats produced by himself. Then the ‘Wheels Up’ and ‘Daydreamer’ mixtapes were born. They were successful, gained more fans, and in the process kept working to push more content out. In his second most recent album titled ‘My Own Lane’,’ singles such as “Show Me”, “Iz U Down” and “Main Chick” really hit the charts hard. Some of the biggest names are featured on that album (Chris Brown killing the vocal portion of the “Show-Me” single). Also Tyga is featured on the “Iz U Down” single. The most recent album is ‘Summer in the Winter.’ That album dropped on Dec. 25. It is good, with a different feel compared to other albums he has produced. In this album, Kid Ink had Fetty Wap featured on the “Promises” single. With only six weeks on chart, the song is 64th on the Billboard Hot 100 and has still not reached its peak.
Fetty Wap has been on the rise, and the collaboration of those two artists was a successful idea. Before Kid Ink became famous, he was dropping music with his own group that he created. Tha Alumni group is the label that he would put out there. After that he announced the signing with RCA Records on Jan. 4, 2013. His independent label group “Tha Alumni” is still in with Ink. Kid Ink has lots of clothing with his label on it. He hasn’t forgotten where he started and still represents “Tha Alumni” heavily. The album has very enjoyable music with some great artists. They have produced some great stuff. The music should be getting better and better as time goes by. The ‘Summer in the Winter’ album is not like every other album he created. It has a different feel to it. The beats are insane. Overall this a good album. Some songs have an R&B feel to them, but others are more rap influenced.

In-N-Out: California Classics By KAYLEE ZUHLKE STAFF REPORTER
If you’re seeking out fresh food with a cheap price tag, look no further: In-N-Out burger is the place for you. Unfortunately for us here in Kennewick, this restaurant does not have a location in Washington State. There have been rumors of expansion, but no action has been taken. However, it is very popular along the west coast. It was opened in 1948 in Baldwin Park, Calif, a suburb of Los Angeles, by Harry and Esther Snyder. It was the first drive thru hamburger joint in California. Upon approaching In-N-Out, chances are that you’ll be greeted by a line
snaking around and outside of the entrance doors due to the sheer popularity of this fast food joint. Customers are embraced by a fast-paced but classic atmosphere by the red, white, and yellow color scheme. The employees are notably driven and friendly, as the comforting, all-American sight of hamburgers and milkshakes easily excites hunger in anyone who walks in. Fortunately for those who have problems making decisions, In-N-Out only has five general food options to choose from. They’re all (appropriately) American staples: hamburgers, cheeseburgers, double cheeseburgers, fries, and milkshakes.
The food was exactly what was expected but nothing to get incredibly excited over. The most distinct flavor of the hamburger was the doubtlessly fresh onions. The french fries tasted old and maybe even a little bit sad to go along with that. In-N-Out is a great place to go for a quick and cheap meal. Nothing on the menu surpasses $5, and it will satisfy the appetite of anyone not looking for five star, divine cuisine. Featured with its own gift shop and exclusive locations primarily in California, it doubles as both a restaurant and a possible tourist destination.

The End of ‘Homestuck,’ but beginning of a New Era By T.J. ROLES STAFF REPORTER
‘Homestuck’ was a web comic created by Andrew Hussie on April 13, 2009. With it celebrating its seventh year online, it celebrates with a sadly fulfilling conclusion. Since its beginning, there have been thousands of fan-art and cosplays, the act of dressing up as characters from specific series. Andrew Hussie has toyed with his fans since the beginning, occasionally going on hiatus due to lack of interest and a busy life. Fans eagerly awaited new pages to be created, and some thought the story had many more years’ worth of lore to build upon. Hussie ended the series at its seventh act while creating enough story to keep people reading for a long time. ‘Homestuck’ has become an extremely long series, with little dialogue sections titled “Pester-logs” to keep readers busy. Hussie still has a massive amount of lore to continue with. Although he ended it, there will possibly be an epilogue to help fans with closure. If an epilogue is created, it will take a long time to arrive on the site. With Hussie working on other comics and a game, there doesn’t seem to be an epilogue coming anytime soon. For those who have no idea what ‘Home-
stuck’ is, ‘Homestuck’ is a web comic about four humans who play a video game that literately changes everything for them and the surrounding family and friends they have. They do, however, meet many people and learn new things on the way. This comic has changed many of its readers. The conclusion has had an impact on the readers as well. At most conventions, you should be able to find at least one ‘Homestuck’ fan (depending on the conventions). They’re easy to spot, either wearing candycorn colored horns or a zodiac symbol on their shirt with gray skin. The fan base is massive. Fans will continue to wait and see what Hussie will do, although no one ever really knows what Hussie will do next with ‘Homestuck.’ These years with all the unforgettable characters have held amazing times and brought many new friends to each fan. The characters of Homestuck will be missed, and their journey will not be forgotten in the hearts of the fans. High hopes are up for a spin-off series by Hussie, although there probably are many created by fans. Photo Courtesy of kickstarter.com
