On November 11, 2015 the students of HHS congregated to show their grati-

tude towards those who have and currently are serving our great nation. In

the Veterans Day Assembly, Jody welcomed the student body along with

our special visitors who served bravely to keep us free.

After JROTC presented our flag and Chamber Choir sang The Star Span-

gled Banner, President Thomas Christiansen opened up with a beautiful

speech about the National Anthem and the freedom that we all enjoy. Ellie

McDonald led the student body through the songs of the different branches

of the military. Anyone who served or has a family member who served or is

serving was invited to stand during that branch’s song.

A movie was shown that quoted Ronald Reagan in his first inaugural ad-

dress while talking about Veterans and those who are currently serving our

country. He stated, “Those who say that we’re in a time when there are no

heroes, they just don't know where to look.”

The students here at Hurricane High were honored to hear from veteran

Rowland Hall who served in the United States Army during World War II.

His spirit of patriotism was spread throughout the hearts of all those who

listened as he told stories and expressed gratitude for the opportunity that

he had. Many who were there in the auditorium on this day gained a great-

er understanding and appreciation of the American flag and what it stands

for. As stated by the Vice president at Hurricane High, Ellie Mcdonald said,

“Some gave all and all gave some.” May we ever remember those who died

so that we can enjoy the freedoms that we have today.

Veterans Assembly!

Everyone loves Thanksgiving! They'd probably be

lying if they said it wasn't because of the food, but

sometimes having the same recipes for the tradition-

al Thanksgiving foods can become boring. So, if you

love Thanksgiving, but want to try some fun new

recipes to change it up, then here are some of my

favorites:

Tired of the traditional cranberry sauce, or just don't

like it at all? Try this easy recipe!

Cranberry - Orange Sauce

1 whole orange

1 bag of fresh cranberries

Sugar to taste (i.e., quite a bit).

Put fruits in a food processor and process until you've

reached the de-

sired consisten-

cy. If your pro-

cessor is small,

you may have to

place just a bit in

at a time. Once

all is processed,

mix together, and

add sugar.

Recipes to Spice Up Traditional Thanksgiving

Foods!

Thanksgiving

What is Thanksgiving?

It’s that time when the leaves change colors and the hot days turn

cold. It’s Thanksgiving season. Many may think of food: turkey,

mashed potatoes, and stuffing. Although it isn’t too far off, food is-

n’t what Thanksgiving is all about. Long ago, when the pilgrims

arrived on the Mayflower, they knew nothing on how to survive on

their own. The cold was coming fast. The natives came and offered

help when they realized the pilgrims meant no harm. They taught

them how to grow corn, use fish to fertilize our fields, and a lot

more. Being very thankful for the

help, the pilgrims invited the In-

dians to a feast in the fall. The

meal consisted of deer, corn,

shellfish, and roasted meat as

they all ate together. Even

though food is a big part of the

holiday, remember those who

made it so we could enjoy the food

we are eating. Happy Thanksgiv-

ing!

Each year, everyone anticipates the war

zone known as ‘Black Friday.’ The events

displayed can be entertaining, but crazy!

Summer Stratton expresses her views, “I

like how everything is on sale. It’s funny

seeing people get in fights over things and

running, pushing past people to get good

deals! I just go for the comfy socks!” As you

can see, things can get pretty exciting!

However, they do tend to get dangerous

every now and then… In the past, there

have been men physically harming people

to get what they want. If an individual does

decide to take a risk, they could be very

profitable, but vulnerable as well. Be sure

to wear running shoes; Anything can hap-

pen!

We all love pumpkin pie, but just wait until you try this reci-

pe!

Pumpkin-mousse pie

8 ounces of soft cream cheese

1 tablespoon of milk

1 tablespoon of sugar (optional)

1 1/2 cups of Cool Whip

1 graham-cracker pie crust

1 cup of milk

2 4-ounce packages of vanilla-

pudding mix

1 16-ounce can of pumpkin

1 to 2 teaspoons of pumpkin-pie spice.

Mix 1 cup of milk and 2 4-ounce packages of vanilla-pudding

until well blended. Add 1 16-ounce can of pumpkin and the

pumpkin-pie spice. Again, blend well. In a separate bowl,

mix 8 ounces of soft cream cheese, 1 tablespoon of sugar

(optional), and 1 tablespoon of milk until smooth. Add to the

pumpkin mix. Mix until well blended. Fold in 1 1/2 cups of

Cool Whip. Pour into the graham-cracker pie crust. Chill 3

hours.

FBLA Mr. Roboto HOSA

PAGE 3 VOLUME 1, ISSUE 3

At Hurricane High school we have a year

round club called HOSA. Many wonder

what HOSA stands for; it stands for

Health Occupation Students of America.

The purpose of HOSA is to help students

develop leadership and technical HOSA

skill competencies through a program of

motivation. Students will develop the

leadership skills by planning activities

and also by going to different competi-

tions.

Kira Brown, a member of HOSA said

“HOSA means Health Occupation Stu-

dents of America, future health profes-

sionals.” HOSA goes to competitions.

Many students of Hurricane High school

say that HOSA is a good club to join if you

are looking to go into the healthcare field.

Japanese Club

By: Emily Mildenhall

Konnichi wa!

Japanese Club is up and running again on every A-

Day Thursday during lunch in room 207. This club is

just one of the many organizations at HHS. The club

presidency includes Melissa Mangum (President),

Emily Mildenhall (Vice President), and Kammi

Wright (Secretary). Anybody who is interested in

Japan is welcome to join and attend the biweekly

meetings. Melissa Mangum said, “Japanese Club

introduces students to the Japanese culture without

them having to take the class- and having a lot of

fun. But we mostly just have a lot of fun.” The club

has a new activity every time, such as

origami, anime, games, etc. Some students from Jap-

anese Club even marched in the Homecoming Pa-

rade. So if you’re a fan of folding paper, watching

Miyazaki films, or

being submersed

into a different cul-

ture- Japanese

Club is the place

for you.

Robots are becoming a large part of

today's society. Hurricane High

has a fresh, brand spankin’ new,

Robotics Club. This club consists

of 5 members led by Mr. Nathan

Johnson. Mr. Johnson reported

that the team plans on competing

in “The First Tech Challenge”, re-

gional at SUU and state at The U

of U, this February. Although some

may think the robot they are mak-

ing is a fighting robot, it most defi-

nitely isn’t. The robot they are

building is going to do simple tasks

like push buttons, push small ob-

jects, pick up and carry small ob-

jects, and even climb up bars. This

pushbot will be controlled through

two gaming controllers that are

connected to a smartphone. The

robotics team has completely built

and and wired this robot for com-

petition. Though the hardware is

ready the software isn’t. Once the

team programs the controls, and

mounts the phone to the robot,

they can test it and make improve-

ments.

Wrestlers are some of the toughest

and strongest kids here at Hurri-

cane High School, not only do they

condition themselves for short

bursts of energy to take their oppo-

nent down, but also a lot of stamina

and endurance to outlast their op-

ponent. Wrestling is not just about

how strong or how big you are, It

takes a lot of skill and practice. You

have to practice one move hundreds

of times to execute correctly. When

Kyler Blackmore was asked about

wrestling, he said, “Wrestling is one

of the hardest sports I have ever

done; I have never gotten so close to

throwing up than I have with wres-

tling!” Make sure to come out and

support your fellow classmates and

sexy beasts at the upcoming wres-

tling matches.

Fall is here, which means football season has begun! Week

nine is already underway and only 4 of the 32 teams are

undefeated as of November 1st. The teams are: Denver

Broncos, Cincinnati Bengals, New England Patriots, and

the Carolina Panthers. These four teams are an unbelieva-

ble 7-0! The least convincing is the Cincinnati Bengals.

They haven’t been to a Super Bowl since 1989, where they

lost to the San Francisco 49ers. The Carolina Panthers

have also never won a Super Bowl- although they won

their conference championship in 2003. The Denver Bron-

cos suffered a painful loss in Super Bowl XLVIII 43-8

making it the worst loss in Super Bowl history. They have

won a total of two Super Bowls in 1997 and 1998. The

New England

Patriots have

won four Super

Bowls. They won

in 2001, 2003,

2004, and 2014.

The 2015-2016

season has been

a good one, and

there are more

great games to

come!

On The Mats Let’s Swim!

PAGE 4 VOLUME 1, ISSUE 3

With Summer coming to an end and the cold

taking over, it’s time for fall and winter

sports and believe it or not, swim team is a

fall sport. Swimmers have to drive to the

Washington County Rec. Center to practice

every Monday through Friday. They had

their first swim meet of the year on Friday,

November 6th at Sand Hollow Aquatic Cen-

ter that stretched into Saturday, November

7th. It’s an invitational meet, so anyone in

Southern Utah who wanted to come, was

welcome to.

When asked why he enjoys swim team, Tal-

on Heaton said, “During my first high school

season of swimming, I gained confidence. I

loved swim and became better. Before swim

I was bullied and wasn’t very popular. Now I

am on varsity and popular among my peers

on the team. It has infinitely changed my

life for the better.” Come to a meet and sup-

port your swim team.

Last week the Hurricane High School’s Orchestra

had their annual yearly Halloween concert. The

concert went very well and the orchestra played

great. They have now began learning new Christ-

mas songs to play at their Christmas Concert in

December. Kayla Larson, a senior here at Hurri-

cane High said, “Orchestra is a lot of fun. I have

made some friends and memories that I will never

forget.”

The sophomores play in the Advanced Orchestra,

while the juniors and seniors play in the Chamber

Orchestra. Larson also said, “I love the music we

get to play in the Chamber Orchestra because it’s

more challenging and fun.” The orchestra works

hard throughout the entire year perfecting and

learning new songs. The students put a lot of time

and hard work into trying to play their best. So

make sure to come out and support them through-

out the year.

Ceramics

that is tough, but once they get passed it, I

love watching them work with the clay

when they know what they are doing.” Ce-

ramics is a great fun class, if you love art

and being creative it is definitely the class

for you.

Ceramics is one of the many

art classes here at Hurricane High

School. In this class you are taught

how to make pots, bowls, mugs,

and other ceramic masterpieces.

Natasha Eves, a former ceramics

student said, “Ceramics is great

because you get to be creative and

have fun while getting a grade for

it. My favorite part about the class

was working on the wheel.” The

wheel (potter's wheel) is where the

clay is placed and turned making it

easier to make many different ce-

ramic pieces.

What you make helps express who

you are and what you feel. When

asked how he feels about teaching

Mr. Evenson says, “I love teaching,

I have been doing it for 20 years. I

love when my students “get it”.

There is a certain learning curve

On a mission to Mars, Mark Wat-

ney, (Matt Damon) and five other

astronauts are caught in a storm.

After it hits, inconveniently, an

antenna flies off a settlement and

hits Mark, knocking him out of

sight, and unconscious. He is as-

sumed dead, and reluctantly, the

rest of the crew are forced to leave

him, and blast back off into space.

“With only meager supplies, he

must draw upon his ingenuity, wit

and spirit to subsist and find a way

to signal Earth that he is alive.” -

IMDB.com Mark goes through con-

stant trial, solving problem after

problem with creativity, and crafti-

ness. “The Martian” is critically

rated as an 8.2/10 starred film, and

lives up to it’s reputation. In this

intense, heart-wrenching, critically

acclaimed movie, Mark Watney’s

only goal is to survive. David Be-

hunin exclaims, “The movie was

intense, thrilling and surprising!

Overall, it was a great film!”

Do you remember when somebody

said, “I love you” and it was quickly

followed by, “You love me, we’re

best friends like friends should be?”

Was Reptar World in Paris ever

your dream vacation? Can you

swerve? Is the Carlton your go to

move on the dance floor? Well, if

any of these describe your child-

hood, you might be a 90’s kid! And

let’s face it, the 90’s didn’t really

come to Utah until 1998 and it

stayed until 2005.

So, you most likely remember at

least a few things from your child-

hood, but do you ever hear your par-

ents asking their friends and sib-

lings if they remember ‘that one

time when the pencil was round so

it wouldn’t properly rewind the

cassette tape’ or ‘when their

parents splurged a little and

rented a VCR player to watch

with the babysitter’ ? Maybe

you wondered why adults and

well cultured teenagers have

been making reference to

Marty McFly all. year. long. So,

in order to answer your ques-

tions, we’re taking it back a little

farther than just to 1999. We’re tak-

ing it back to 1985.

On November 5, the students of

HHS gathered in the high school

parking lot to enjoy a drive-in thea-

ter night in the crisp autumn air.

There was popcorn and hot choco-

late, blankets and pillows, couches

and truck beds, but most important-

ly, there were students gathering

together to enjoy Back To The Fu-

ture. Although it was awkward

when Marty’s mom kept ‘going for

him’, the movie was a hit, and the

students of HHS left with a desire

to watch the sequel.

Have you ever wanted to surprise those around you

with useless knowledge? Do you long for the oppor-

tunity to make others question your sanity by knowing

facts that are so random that it’s quite possibly fake,

but it is actually 100% true? Well, that is what this

article was designed for. Here are some facts that may

or may not make your brain explode:

Did you know that dogs have baby teeth and adult

teeth just like humans?

Foxes in fact do not ‘ring-ding-ding-ding-ding’ but they

yip like a little puppy.

Pocahontas is just a nickname that means ‘naughty

one’. Her real name was Matoaka.

Goats have rectangular pupils.

In the first edit of the Hannah Montana script, the

show was going to be called Alexis Texas.

The final random fact for today is that giraffes clean

their ears with their 18 inch tongues!

Go ahead and wow your parents with these interesting

factoids. Just remember not to act like that weirdo on

Zack and Cody who had the useless facts.

Inactive HIV to Cure Childhood Cancer

The Raging Hurricane

PAGE 7 VOLUME 1, ISSUE 3

Current Events

On October 25th Hurricane Patricia hit Cuixmala, Mexico. Hurri-

cane Patricia was the strongest hurricane ever observed in the East-

ern Pacific and Atlantic Oceans; Patricia was recorded as a category

5 hurricane, which is the highest ranked category for a hurricane.

Many along the coast were evacuated; including those who were va-

cationing in Cuixmala. Many feared the death toll would be very

large, and were surprised to hear that zero people were killed by this

raging storm. Paige Van Pelt, a Hurricane High School senior, said,

“That is crazy that nobody died in this huge storm.”

During the storm, many homes and buildings were destroyed. Van

Pelt also said, “My prayers go out to all those who lost their homes. I

hope they are able to rebuild all the buildings that were torn apart

soon.” The winds from the storm got up to a maximum of 200 mph,

while the central pressure

fell to 879 millibars. The

low pressure broke the rec-

ord of any hurricane ever

on record. The people of

Cuixmala, Mexico are very

lucky to have made it

through Hurricane Patri-

cia. We hope they are able

to get their town up and

back to normal soon.

Emily Whitehead was a 6-year old little girl who had

Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. She had been fighting

cancer for most of her life and had gone through several

different treatments. Emily and her family both knew

that she had little time left and were willing to try any-

thing to have more time with her. They found a clinical

trial that Emily qualified for that involved taking inac-

tive HIV T- cells and injecting them into Emily’s

body. They didn’t know if the treatment would cure

her cancer, or just slow the cancers development.

"What we are trying to do is retrain the immune sys-

tem to recognize and kill tumor cells." Said Dr. June.

"The virus has been re-engineered so that it can't

cause disease anymore but it still retains the ability

to reprogram the immune system so that it will now

attack cancer cells." Within a day or two of the treat-

ment, Emily’s condition dramatically decreased. A

miracle happened and the next day Emily was bet-

ter. She was strong and aware. A few days later, her

cancer had disappeared completely. The inactive

HIV T- cells attacked the cancer cells in her body

much faster than anything else ever had and there

were no longer any signs of cancer in Emily's body.

To this day, Emily is living cancer free. The clinical trials

are still running and scientists and doctors are hoping

that the Inactive HIV will be the cure that everyone has

been searching for. If you would like to learn more about

Emily’s story you can visit her blog at emilywhite-

On Sunday November 1st, All American

Meats Inc. recalled over 167,427 pounds of

ground beef due to a possible E. Coli contam-

ination. There was a test conducted on the

meat on October 30th that showed positive

results for E. Coli. This illness is a result of

consumption of infected foods. E. Coli is a

dangerous bacteria that causes sickness, and

even fatalities in some cases. There have

been no reported illnesses linked to the con-

sumption of the ground beef. However,

health officials urge consumers to throw

away or return any meat that was affected.

Hey There Delilah,

I am struggling with some things I am not proud of. Every morning I wake up, I look in the mirror, I grab

a tube of toothpaste and I squeeze a whole mouthful of toothpaste into my mouth. I know it's bad for me,

and I know it's not good, but I can't seem to stop. Not only is it making me sick, but my toothpaste bill

has shot sky high! What should I do?

-Sincerely, Colgate crest

Dear Colgate Crest,

You must have the freshest breath and whitest teeth of all of Hurricane High School! You should be

proud of that! But, all you need is just a dime sized amount of toothpaste to do the job. Maybe try getting

toothpaste that doesn't taste good at all so you won't want to eat it, but you'll still be able to clean your

pearly white teeth! Keep up the good hygiene and floss twice a day.

-Sincerely, Delilah

Hey There Delilah,

I recently made out with a cheerleader from Hurricane High School. I feel like I am starting to catch feel-

ings for her, but I made out with her best friend, who is also a cheerleader, a week before her, and neither

of them know that I kissed them both. I don't want them to find out because I have feelings for both of

them, and I just don't know which one to choose from. They both are super cute and I can see myself with

both of them. Should I just keep both of them and go back and forth without them knowing? Or should I

tell them and see which one is more into me? Please help me.

-Sincerely, Double Duty

Dear Double Duty,

First of all Congratulations! Second of all, l I would highly recommend that you ask the girls separately

how they feel towards you; figure out which one likes you the most or which one even likes you at all!

Figure out which one makes you smile and laugh the most, and the one you can be yourself with, You

don't want to be someone completely different just for the person you think you like! You should feel com-

fortable and happy with the girl you are with; you should get butterflies every time you see her even if

you just barely saw her 5 minutes before! It is never a smart idea to drag two girls along especially be-

cause that is not right. Girls are amazing and beautiful and they should always be treated with respect

even if they are rude and you think they don't deserve it.

-Sincerely, Delilah
