It’s that time of year again! Time to break out the orange, grab the guns and bows, and head up the mountain in search of the perfect big game to claim. It’s the perfect time to get together with family and skip school for a week on the mountain. Thebuckriflehuntwasexactlyone week after Sadie’s! How cra-zy is that? Some people would be getting ready for Sadie’s, but us hunters were stocking up on am-munition and sighting in the guns and tracking that trophy buck. Okay, so some of us did go to Sa-die’s, but give us a break, we can’t hunt all the time; it would just get boring after a while. “Whenyoucan’tfindthedeer,they are at the café,” Robert Bott says. Is hunting mean? Some say yes, and others say no. What makes hunting mean? The non-hunters say that hunting is mean because you could be killing the animal’s

mom or dad. We could be killing Bambie’s mommy or daddy. It’s sad when animals die but it also keeps the animals in check and the population down. Hunting is a way of life. What is your idea of the perfect hunting trip? I would think the per-fect hunting trip is going out with your parents and grandpa, and as you are looking for your buck, they tell you about their hunting trips when they were younger. You get a great laugh at all the reck-less and senseless things they did. Even if you don’t see anything but does and fawns, it is still a pretty good hunting trip because you got to listen to stories and spending the whole day with your family. Remember that the hunt is not where you take your anger out on the other hunters. Put your anger into the hunt to track your trophy buck or whatever you are hunting this year. Bring home the goods and have an awesome hunting season all you fellow hunters!

Introducing the iPad Air

After just recently introducing the iPhone’s 5s and 5c, iPad introduc-es a new tablet to the market. The iPad Air lost roughly 33% of the prior model’s weight, dropping from 1.4 pounds to just 1 pound. It also sports Apple’s insanely fast A7 processor as well as M7 co-processor, bringing it in line with the iPhone 5s. It’s said to be the thinnest, sleekest, and most ad-vanced tablet yet.

The Government Shutdown

After a sixteen-day governmentshutdown, it ended on October 17. During the duration of the government shutdown, all parks were closed, and 800,000 people were out of work.

Red Ribbon Week is the old-est and largest drug prevention campaign in the country and our school will be celebrating it from October 28 thru November 1. This week is full of fun activities and dress up days. “Marvel”ous Monday (Super Hero Day), Twin Tuesday, Wake Up Wednesday (Pajama Day), Halloween Cos-tume Thursday, and Fancy Friday. For activities we have an NHS Dance, a Boys Volleyball Game, Halloween, and an FBLA Pump-kin Smash. Most people celebrate Red Ribbon Week but don’t know the amazing story behind the drug awareness week. It all started with a man named Enrique Camarena. Enrique “Kiki” Camarena grew

up in a dirt-floored house withhopes and dreams of making a dif-ference. Camarena worked his way through college, served in the Ma-rine Corp and became a police of-ficer.WhenhedecidedtojointheU.S. Drug Enforcement Admin-istration, his mother tried to talk him out it. “I can’t not do this,” he told her. “I’m only one person, but I want to make a difference.” The DEA sent Camarena to work undercover in Mexico in-vestigating a major drug cartel believedtoincludeofficersintheMexican army, police force andgovernment. On Feb. 7, 1985, the 37-year-old Camarena left his of-fice to meet his wife for lunch.Five men appeared at the agent’s side and shoved him in a car. One

month later, Camarena’s body was found in a shallow grave. He had been tortured to death. In honor of Camarena’s memory and his battle against illegal drugs, friends and neighbors began to wear red badges of satin. Parents, sick of the destruction of alcohol and other drugs, had begun form-ing coalitions. Some of these new coalitions took Camarena as their model and embraced his belief that one person can make a difference. These coalitions also adopted the symbol of Camarena’s memory, the red ribbon. Red Ribbon Week is helping to preserve Special Agent Camare-na’s memory and further the cause for which he gave his life. The Red Ribbon Campaign also became a symbol of support for the DEA’s

efforts to reduce demand for drugs through prevention and education programs. By wearing a red rib-bon during the last week in Octo-ber, Americans demonstrate their ardent opposition to drugs. They pay homage not only to Special Agent Camarena, but also to all the men and women who have made theultimatesacrificeinsupportofour nation’s struggle against drug traffickingandabuse. Red Ribbon Week serves as a commitment to drug preven-tion and education and a personal commitment to live drug free lives with the ultimate goal being the creation of drug free America.

Beards and leg hair. Beards and leg hair everwhere. That’s what we hope to see as we enter what is easilty the best month of the entire year: No Shave November. The rules are simple. For the entire month of November, we put the razors away, not to see them until December. Men’s faces be-comefuzzyhives,fitforafamilyof robins to nest in. Women’s legs become the warm, sweater-like logs God intended them to be. It is a beautiful tradition. According to Collegiate.Org, No Shave November dates back thousands of years ago, in Ancient Greece when Plato (yes, the Plato) decided there should be a period of time set aside specifically for

men to nurture their facial hair. Another renowned Greek philoso-pher, Aristotle, showed his agree-ment when he ruled that young guardians of Athens were to take 30 days to grow their beards, for, “… no man can be trusted if he is without a beard.” Fast forward to the 1800’s when KarlMarx,aGerman,revolution-ary socialist, who could think of no better way to stick it to capi-talist factory owners than to have workers grow beards through the month of November. Of course, the factory owners wouldn’t have it,andMarx’splanfailed. But about a hundred and fiftyyears later, No Shave Novem-berfinds rousing, annual success

amongst college and high school students. And while the majority of No Shave observers are men, many women have joined in on the fun too, refusing to maintain their baby-smooth legs. Juab High School itself has its fair share of No Shave November proponents. Ryan Hatfield says,“I’m so pumped for No Shave No-vember. I’m hoping to get a Brad Pitt sort of look this year.” Other students, though, aren’t so enthusiastic. “It’s so gross,” says Ally Nelson. Opponents of No Shave No-vember, though, are forgetting how important body hair has been throughout the making of human civilization. Let me list

some names for you. Chuck Nor-ris. Grizzly Adams. Abraham Lin-coln.JesusChrist.ZachGalifiana-kis. The most important people of all time all cultivated luscious beards. And do you think Susan B. Anthony, Rosa Parks, or Hillary Clinton got where they did with-out taking some time to grow out their leg hair? So on November 1st, grab your razors. Lock them away. Throw away the key. Wait until Decem-ber 1st to frantically comb the city dump, looking for your key. For November is a month reserved for the sacred processes of beard-keep and natural leg warming. Let that hair grow. Grow it well, my friends.

Underlying the serenity of the library is a conflict between stu-dents on lunch break and the li-brary authorities. Students are frustrated that the library is closed during second lunch. Last year, the library was open during both lunches, and it was a pretty crowded hang out. Com-puter savvy students logged on for a break of games like Minecraft, while others lounged on the comfy chairs to chat with friends. Most of the chairs were occupied, and the volume probably rose over the typical library setting. Students also took the op-

Hipsters are the nomads for our modern day. While the entire nation is precariously testing the waters for the new 2013 fashion and trends, hipsters are at the top oftheirgameflauntingthefuturetrends. Contrary to many beliefs, a hipster’s life is exceedingly dan-gerous and certainly keeps you on your toes: One must show off the future trends, but never be caught wearing them after popular-ity. Fortunately, I have the insid-ers look thanks to the all mighty Google. Fashion: Since the hipster’s

On Sunday November 3, 2013, don’t forget to move your clocks back one hour and take the chance to feel like you are sleeping in. Daylight savings is right around the corner. There are positives and nega-tives to Daylight savings. In the spring, you loose an hour. That means that you feel like you are waking up an hour earlier. The good news is that it gives you more daylight at the end of the day. In the fall, the opposite happens. You get to sleep in one more hour, but you loose that hour at the end of the day, and it gets dark sooner than you are used to. Daylight savings time has some positives. “The one where you gettosleepinanextrahouristhebest!” said Shamri Wright.

Library Lockout

Hippin’ It

portunity to cram in last minute studysessionsbeforefifthhourorbrowse for a new AR book. Now though, students have lost access to the library because Wasp Online is in session in the library during lunch. Nobody can wan-der in and nab a book or take ad-vantage of the assignment work-space. “It’s dumb [being locked out] and it makes me extremelymadbecause where am I supposed to go after lunch?” said Kimberly Allred. Kimberly isn’t the only one who’s unsure where to spend their break. Most mill around the lunchroom, but some are so bored that they wander into the halls. “It’s creating another problem because now people are running through the halls disrupting class-rooms,” said Madeline Williams. However, the closing of the li-brarycanbejustified. “I feel bad doing it [locking the library] but it’s unfair to the kids trying to take tests and quizzes,” said Mrs. Andersen the librarian. The Wasp Online class is in there trying to complete projects,

learn new material, and focus on exams. If the library became aparty place, with any yelling or rowdiness, the students would be easily distracted. “When the library is not closed students can’t work,” said Mrs. Clark. As her classroom, she needs the library to be a learn-ing environment where students can get work done. She believes that if the library opened like last year her students wouldn’t be very productive because of their peers’ activity. Students recognize this need for quietness, but they are still unhappy about being shut out. “I don’t like it because I usu-ally go in there to get a book or magazine or whatever,” said Evan Reynoso. But is that really true? Talking to the librarian and Mrs. Clark, they both revealed that the door over by Mr. Wallace’s room that leads into the library is unlocked during lunch. If students want, they can enter the library through there, but they must be quiet and respect the classroom in session.

Personally, I would take the spring time change over the fall time change. During the fall and winter, I think that daylight sav-ings is the most despicable curse to fall upon this land. It robs us of precious daylight and the opportu-nities to accomplish something. The effect of daylight savings is evident in the pale skin of stu-dents who might be lucky to see the sun for one hour after school every day. After daylight savings has started, it feels like you leave for school in the dark and return home in time to see the setting sun. If you have trouble remember-ing whether you are going to lose an hour or gain an hour, don’t sweat it. An easy way to remem-ber is a common saying that goes “Spring forward, fall back. Daylight savings first startedduring WW1 so that countries in-volved in the war could save fuel by not having to run lights so long after dark. Germany and Austria were the first to implement thisnew idea. I don’t think that daylight sav-ings is needed for that reason any-more. Some states have already gotten rid of it. Hawaii and Ari-zona don’t do daylight savings!

fashion sense is regularly chang-ing, one can never guess what to-morrow’s hipster may dawn, for-tunately for you, I have the scoop. One will be adorning high waist jeans, ripped stockings, thick glasses, grandmother dresses, retro military shoes, the American flag...nevermind.Thisiswaytocomplextoexplain.Justgath-er a bunch of clothing from any sourceandfitthemalltogetherinoneoutfit. The same goes for the male species. Hey, what does it matter if you look like a fool? You are the trendsetter; people follow you but never question your motives. Lifestyle: The lifestyle for the average hipster is as confusing as their fashion sense. If you are the type of person whom thrives in school, you have a leg up to be-come a hipster. The reason for the good grades? It is “hip” to be an idiot so to be a hipster you must be an intellectual whiz. The average hipster may also take up sewing, novel read-ing, photography, listening to way off the chart music, and other el-

derly obsessions. Not to mention, all of these hobbies must be done in an old diner, a library, the park, or any other queer hangout. Yes, the hipster shall always be ques-tioned by humanity. History: Hipsters are a subcul-ture of men and women that value being the top dog, even if it means looking like a fool years before its time. As you know, every species has to start somewhere. The infamous hipster started with the sensitivity and guy-liner of the Emo. From there it went to the intellectual Dweeb. Then came the bearded Mountain Man, the Vintage Roy-altyandfinally leadingup to theunhygienic Homeless of today. Hipsters are our modern day Star Trek movie: We may not re-alize it now, but we get all of our extraordinary ideas from them,ideas that can progress our future to a new age. An age, of FASH-ION! Wait for that future day. Cherish that future day. Meditate that future day. For it shall come, and when it does, it shall be FAB-ULOUS!

The everlast-ing debate con-tinues. Is it com-pletely acceptable to go trick-or-treating once you cross the barrier of Neverland and enter high school? As everyone has yet to reach a consensus, I decided to ask a few fellow classmates and peers their feel-ings on the subject. “If it’s done in a clever way with a neat costume, and you go with a few kiddos,thenit’sfine,”said Ali Olsen. Aulani Camacho agreed, “Heck yes! We need the candy more than little kids anyway! Who looks like they need the sugar rush more?!” With a few other “I guess so” re-sponses, I came to the conclusion that trick-or-treating for high school stu-dents is alright as long as you follow a few guidelines that will deem your Hal-loween adventure as socially acceptable or not. First,onemustfindsomecutelittle kiddos to take around town. This is THE most important step! If you don’t have adorable young-er siblings or cousins then you re-ally don’t have a solid reason to be trick-or-treating. This way, if

The Trick of Treatingsome cool senior you look up to drives by you can say “Look bro, my mom made me take my sib-lings trick-or-treating!” then wave

them on their way. Second, if you’re going trick-or-treat-

ing, you might as well go all out and have an awesome

costume that will make people

smile. If you don’t get a compliment on your costume, you

have failed! End of story. Lastly, make sure you get tons upon tons of candy!

Whenyoufinallygohome after a long night of candy hunt-

ing, you should have more quality candy than all the youngsters combined. If you don’t,

you have been outdone by

those with brains that aren’t as devel-oped as yours, how embarrassing. Don’t be shamed by a five-

year old girl in a glittery fairy

costume!

So whether

you’re motivated by a potential sugar-rush, the need to follow tradition, or your parents really are making you tow your younger siblings around, have a great time getting cavities and sending your blood pressure through the roof… if you do de-cide to go after all.

Ode to the wonderful pota-toes past my lips, to the delicious pies that will go straight to my hips. Beauty and joy this holiday brings, until the day after, when I can’tfitintomyswing! Thanksgiving, a day suppos-edly made to give thanks, has become known as the day of stuffing. (Especially since youcan stuff your face with stuff-ing.) From the endless buffet to the hours sitting around a table, Thanksgiving certainly does cre-ate an issue for those still wishing for that ideal image. Teenagers (mostly the females) and mothers of all ages fear this day throughout the year. Christ-mas is coming, summer is over, the new style of jeans is coming out, but what happens if you can’t fit into it? Fear not!YourCrossCountry and Track and Field teams are here to save the day!

The 5k has been a hit these past few years, bringing in any-one from beginning speed walk-ers to crazy, life long runners. It’s the perfect way to get you pumped for the upcoming holi-day! Twelve days before Thanks-giving, the Turkey Trot will pre-pare you mentally for the day of stuffingandgetyouintothehabitof staying in shape. Not only that, but the lucky winner of this event will actually win a turkey! (A dead one, of course.) So come join the most insane teams on campus as they embark on Operation: Eat More Food!

Wherefore art thou Romeo? Or should I say....Princess Ida. Once again our fellow high school students will brave the stage with song and dance in Juab’s annual musical. Princess Ida, by Gilbert and Sulivan, sati-rizes feminism while exploringthe unpredictable events that go along with arranged marriages. And according to cast member Shelby Cameron, “ It includes fun moments, falsetto voices, friends, feuds, family, and best of all.... feminism.” The story starts out when two kings (played by Sam Holladay and Riki Squire) arrange the mar-riage of their children. But when the day finally comes, the king’sdaughter, Princess Ida (played by Haley Willmore) runs off to college, and is determined nev-er to marry. On a quest to bring her back, the king’s knights and Prince Hilarion (played by Ryan Hughes) come in contact with a new enemy .... feminism. From

there its all disguise, fiasco, anda victory of sorts. In the end, we learn that gender equality can only be achieved when both genders work together. But all this, wouldn’t be possi-ble if it weren’t for the face behind the curtain, the director, and JHS English and drama teacher, Miss C.Eversincehersixthgradeleadin a Shakespeare play, she has loved being a part of theater. And in the absence of Laren Sw-ensen,anexceptionaldirectorlikeherself was needed. With a lot of support from those around her she is trying her own ideas and adding her own spunk to each scene. Princess Ida, a play first seenon stage in 1884, now has a mod-ern twist. In much deserved optimism Sara Clements says,” Miss C brings a new and fresh perspective that Juab has never seen before. This musical will be an unfor-gettable one.” So, without further ado.... Showings will be Nov. 21-23, and 25 at the Juab Jr. High School auditorium. Come see the show!

“Happy Halloween,

Hosers!” -Skyler

Skyler’s Scare House Fest

The trees are changing, the air is crisp and full of warming scents, pumpkins, and autumn spices... but lets skip over that and say what’s seriously happening… It is freezing! So its time to whip out the cute boots, and warm fuzzy jackets. Yep its that time of year! Fall is here and there are so many exciting choices of style.It’s time to put away the cute sum-mer dresses and bundle up. The fun fall fashion trend throughout our school this year is leggings. Who would have thought to wear tight, thicker tights and call it style?? But it is thriving! In my personal opinion they are fun, cute and perfect for any lazy day. They come in all sorts of designs as well as colors. You can purchase them at almost any teenclothingstore.Forexample,Rue 21 has a large variety of Leg-gings. If you go take a peek in H&M you’llfindevenmoreandfunvi-brate clothes. While you’re there, don’t for-get the shoe section, a fun popu-lar way to wear leggings is tucked

away under cute stylish boots. About any boot you can findwill do the trick, the ones that lace up and go to about the calf is a popular choice, but the ones that go up to the knee are just as cute if not cuter. Many girls at Juab, including myself, enjoy them. Slip on a pair of boots, a cute shirt, and there you have it! You’ve got, fun and warm style! Oh but wait, you forgot you need a jacket too. Leather is huge this year. Leather jackets, lined with soft fabric hoods is a choice of major-ity. They are cute and can go over about anything and make it look amazing. Juab girls all have some type of leather looking jacket, the soft brown colored ones or even the red ones, or even blue and just about any color you want, you can find. Oh and is your neck cold?! Whip out a cute scarf, tie it fash-ionably and there you go! There you have it Juab! That’s our fun, warm, glamorous way, to survive the months of fall and winter months to come.

Juab Flaunts Fall Fashions

Fall into Some Knowledge

We’ve Got You Covered:

Get Dressed for Halloween

at The VERYLast Minute!

Strangling Brothers Haunted Circus

Location: 98 East, 13800 South, Draper. Hours: 7:30-10:00 weekdays, 12:00 on weekends (check site for details).

While the 22 dollars for a ticket may seem steep, you get a lot of bang (or should I say, scare, ha!) for your buck. The entire ven-ue follows a “Haunted Circus” theme, showcased by grotesque clown masks and talented actors who are quite energetic in their campaign of terror. The course is varied and surprisingly long- you’re not going to get through quickly. I would like to give the person who designed this course a handshake, because the many dif-ferent props, lights, and obstacles are creative and intended to keep you on your toes- and scared out of your mind.

Pros: Unique theme, great course, convincingactors,excellentscarefactor. Cons: Slightlyexpensiveinrela-tion to others. (scratch that, there are no cons!)

Conclusion: If you must only vis-it one haunted house, make it this one and take the hike to Draper. It’s worth it. SSR:

Nightmare on 13th

Location: 320 West 1300 South, Salt Lake City. Hours: 7:30- 12:00.

You may eventually recover from the 15 dollar with coupon hole burned in your pocket, but you will never recover from the sub par experience you haveunwittingly subjected yourself too. The venue is well done and has obviously had much money dumped into it. It has an almost too polished feel, which detracts from the scare factor. While the props are great, long lines create a sort of slaughterhouse effect from starttofinish,sotherearenosur-prises. You’ll see everything com-ing. Don’t buy the hype!

Pros: 15 Dollars with a coupon is a slick deal, and the props are quite good. Cons: Inordinately crowded. And not scary. At all.

Conclusion: We at the Clarion staff urge you very strongly to re-frain from gracing this overhyped establishment with your presence. But if you must go, slap a caffeine patch on your arm or something, or you may well fall asleep.SSR:

The Haunted Forest

Location: 1100 South 500 East, American Fork. Hours: 7:30-12:00.

For $20 dollars, the Haunted Forest offers an excellent dealfor your money. Boasting the state’s only outdoor facility, terror will be yours with two different courses with a scare around every corner. Each course is a new thrill ensuring a good time, and the two-course deal makes this the best option for a taking a special lady/man friend on a date.

Pros: Two courses per ticket, good props and actors, reasonable price. Cons: If you go through the haunt-ed forest portion of the course first, you cannot go through thenextcourse.Thisisalowtrick.

Conclusion: The Haunted For-est offers good scares for a great price. SSR:

NEWSFLASH! Tomorrow is Halloween. Maybe you’re an alien who dropped out of the sky yesterday and you have no idea what Halloween is. Maybe you’re one of those few people who just couldn’t decide what to dress up as, so the idea kept getting put off and pushed back. Until now.

Now that Halloween is almost here,Iamgettingveryexcitedforeverything creepy and crawly. When I think of scary, I think of ghosts and hauntings. As curious as I am about ghosts, I went look-ing for real local hauntings. What I found was almost shocking. Only fifteen minutes away in,Santaquin, Utah, a local business with demonic hauntings. The Family Tree restaurant has had several cases of scares and jitters. Before 1985 the establish-ment was the Santaquin city’s post official. Then, mother and son,Nan and Jesse Smith founded it as a family diner. Speaking with local people, they’ve told me that it’s just about the scariest place there is out there. The ghosts are said to stack the furniture, make noises, and touch people that dare enter. My curiosity got the best of me and I stopped inside. You can almost feel the ghostly presence from the moment you step in the door. The feeling it gives from the oldcreakyfloor,tothepicturesof

those who have long since passed on the walls is quite freighting. I sat down and decided I might as well eat while I was there. Their scones are fourteen inch-es long and delicious with melted honey butter as a topping. I still couldn’t quite shake that haunting feeling that was looming in the air. I still wasn’t quite sure about these so-called hauntings, I did some research of my own. IcametofindoutIwasn’ttheonly person to be interested in this place. A very popular TV show call “The Dead Files” did an in-vestigation as well. They proved many of the things that people had said were happening true. The program left me with the conclusion that there is no way The Family Tree isn’t haunted.

Basketball season is just around the corner, and here at Juab High we want to make sure you, the stu-dent, is knowledgeable of the of-ficiating.Iamgoingtoteachyousome simple hand signals used by the referees, so that you are ready to yell for good calls and boo for bad calls.

Basketball Lingo for Dummies

When you hear the referee blow his whistle after a play, and put his hands on his hips, you know that a player has made illegal con-tact with an opposing player who is advancing to the hoop with the ball. This usually happens when the player with the basketball is driving into the hoop, and is at-tempting to make a shot. The op-posing player who is defending the hoop commits the foul when they makes physical contact with the player who possessed the ball.

A referee goes like this when he feels a charging call is in effect. A clinchedfistheldouttothesideisusually made. A charge is when an offensive player with the ball runs into or comes in contact with a stationary defensive player. For example,theplayerwiththeballisgoing to the basket to try and draw a foul as they are going in for a lay up. They need to be careful not to run right into the defender, or they will be fouled for charging

Two opposing players are fight-ing over the ball like two little children. The referee blows the whistle, and puts two thumbs up like this. This is the signal for a jump ball. Since one team started the half with the ball, the opposite team gets the ball in a jump ball scenario.Now that you know a little bit about all of those confusing hand signals, I hope you come to every girls and boys basketball game this season.

Kickin’ It: Drill Team The JHS drill team has kicked off the year great! Their last per-formances at football games and assemblies have been spectacular. These girls have practiced long hours to get to where they are, and itdefinitelyshows. These girls have danced in thier bare feet on cold grass in freezing weather. Their performances at football games are truly talent-ed for that atmosphere that they are in. It isn’t like having a nice dance room that’s heated, and has awoodfloor.Althoughit’searlyin the year, the team has done a great job with technique, show-manship, and synchronization. This competition season, the drill team is focusing on not only winning, but to be united as a

team and dance as one. They also are trying to focus on taking state in at least one of three catego-ries. Whether its dance, military, or character, our JHS Provita are willingtogotheextramiletowin.They feel that this year is the year to win it all. This year at the region compe-tition in January, Provita will have a new team to compete against. The Richfield drill team is newto our region, and no one really knowswhattoexpectoutofthem.Our girls are going to be prepared for anything this year from all 4 teams. Payson usually has one of the stronger teams, but our girls have mastered in all three catego-ries every year so far. This year willdefinitelybeoneofthestron-ger years for the girls.

In the wake of new divisions formed this past year, Juab is for thefirst time in severalyearsa highly competitive contender for the state title. Beginning this school year, the standard divisions of 1A-5A changed. UHSAA split the 3A division- forming 3A and 3AA. Larger schools were bumped up, leveling the playing field forsmaller schools such as our own. This years batch of seniors are feeling good, real good, about their teams state taking prospects. They’ve been a force to be reck-onedwithsincetheyfirstdonnedfootball pads in the 6th grade-the camaraderie runs deep. However, there are several hurdles to face on the road to state. The teams eli-gible (at this point in the season) for the playoffs are as follows: contenders for the 3A state titles are (while not necessarily in or-der) as follows: Morgan- While they have not had the hardest schedule, they haveanexcellentwin-lossrecordand have proved to be a team to be reckoned with. Judge Memorial- They’ve played a few tough games in their early season, and have proven

themselves tough to beat, running over the top of Manti (49-20) and trumping Grantsville (25-14). Manti-Our old foe. They have remained undefeated in our region this season and have a punishing offense. Grantsville-A big, physical team,Grantsvilledealtusourfirstloss at our homecoming game. Richfield-Witha7-2win-lossrecord, Richfield looks pretty onpaper. While they have had a com-paratively easy season, they have still stood tough when faced with teams of a higher caliber. Emery- Will likely narrowly make it to the playoffs, but don’t expect them to hang around tolong in this highly competitive playingfield. Delta- Is a wild card and not to be overlooked. They will likely finish4th in the South region, but regardless have had some surpris-ing victories recently, defeating Grantsville 19-13 and Richfield27-8. Juab- is a strong contender for the state title, proving to be a tough team to beat for the best in the state. With high moral and dis-cipline, we could very well make it all the way.

The leaves on the tree are changing red, orange, brown and yellow, the morning chill setting in, this is a sign of October. Now, we all know what October means; well, if you don’t its means The Walking Dead starts. If you have never seen The Walking Dead then you are missing out on a lot. For all of you have not seen The Walk-ing Dead, it’s a TV show on chan-nel 130 on Dish and 256 on Direct TV, and if you can’t find it thenlook for the station AMC. The Walking Dead is a drama-action show that involves zombies.

It wouldn’t be untrue to call Gravity filmmaking at its abso-lute best. Gravity is hauntingly beautiful, emotionally gripping, and absolutely terrifying. It’s the culmination of innovative spe-cial effects, great direction, and excellent acting. It brings to lifeboth the fear of dying alone and the pure joy of living. Gravity is a fantastic movie and my favorite of the year so far. Dr. Ryan Stone (Sandra Bull-ock) is a medical engineer on her first space flight.MattKowalsky(George Clooney) is a retiring veteran on his last mission. It’s a routine spacewalk, but when debris from an exploded satel-lite destroys their shuttle, Stone and Kowalsky are left drifting through the vastness of space, tethered to nothing but each other. It’s important to note how beau-tifully simple Gravity’s plot is. Your average blockbusters today are sprawling, convoluted, two and a half hour pieces. Gravity is only 90 minutes long, has just two principal characters, and al-most entirely takes place in space. Therearenoflashbacks,nocutstoMission Control. Yet the movie is never boring. It’s all about Stone’s terrifyingfighttosurvive,andit’sa heck of a ride. Key to the film’s success arethe spectacular visuals. I saw the moviein3D,anditwasdefinitelyworththeextramoneyandaddstothefilm’sdepth.DirectorAlfonsoCuarón utilizes many long, track-ing shots, often several minutes long. Sometimes these shots are

slow and graceful, accentuating the beauty of Earth and the vast-ness of space. Other shots are jar-ringly fast and dizzying. The result is immersive and mind blowing. What is truly amazing is how seamless and real the entire filmlooks, leading you to forget that what you’re watching is actually carefully choreographed. Cuarón and crew spent four years in pre-production, creating brand new special effect techniques to simu-late the zero G atmosphere. Light-ing, wirework, and computer ani-mation are masterfully blended to create something truly awe-inspir-ing and beautiful. Alsonoteworthyare thefilm’ssound effects and musical score. The movie stays true to the fact that there is no sound in space. Stone and Kowalsky commu-nicate using their radios. Other sounds are deafened and heard only when the characters are inter-acting with objects and feeling the vibrations through their bodies. Besides that, though, everything else is silenced. Cue composer Steven Price’s score: painfully intense during explosions anddeeply touching through quieter moments. The best thing about Gravity, though, is that it avoids the pitfall of other special effect extrava-ganzas by having sympathetic characters we actually care about, coupled by great performances. Clooney is charming and charis-matic as Kowalsky. His comic re-lief lightens the tension, and, boy, is his voice reassuring. Bullock, of course, carries the

weight of the film and is a lockfor a Best Actress Oscar nomina-tion(Bullockwinningforthisfilmwould certainly be more deserved than when she won for 2009’s overrated The Blind Side.). Stone is tragic and heartbreaking, hav-ing recently suffered the loss of her daughter. Her journey is one of rebirth, and it’s fascinating to watch. All of these elements create one heck of a movie. Gravity was the first film in awhile I foundmy-self truly immersed in everything taking place. It’s the kind of story where you can’t help but put your-self in the place of the characters and wonder just what you would do in a situation like that. As a result, I was absolutely terrifiedthroughout the entire movie. One scene shows Stone rapidly tum-bling out into the darkness, with nothing to slow her movement. Sheflipsandflipsintospaceuntilshe is little more than a speck on the screen, completely surrounded by blackness. The image is un-forgettable and more than a little frightening. After Gravity, I knew I had just witnessed something spectacular. I mean, one could nitpick about a few minor character clichés or the fact that absolutely everything that could possibly go wrong on this spacewalk does go wrong. But walking out, I felt grateful to bealive.IfeltlikeI’dexperiencedsomething remarkable and ex-traordinary. It’s a game-changing movie that is sure to be remem-bered, and I loved every minute of it.

TLC’s newest production, My Five Wives, has been a recent top-ic in the halls of Juab High School. A few of our school’s students have experienced the process ofhaving a TV series—how cool is that?! Madeline, September, Lau-ren, Dane, Kimberly, Taylor, and Paul Williams are all featured in this show! For us who are curi-ous about their experience, weconducted a short Q and A asking them a little about their life in the spotlight.

Q: What’s it like being on TV?

A: It’s kind of funky to think that over a million Americans have been “inside” our home. It’s funny to watch random people staring at our parents when we’re in public.

Q: How long have you had cam-eras on you?

A: They filmed for five days, twelve

hours a day. A couple years ago, some French people came and filmed us for a day for the 60 Min-utes show in France.

Q: Do you like it?

A: It was a lot of fun meeting new people (the TV crew) and being introduced to the TV world. We didn’t realize how much work it takes to make a show, especially for the crew.

Q: Did you ever think you were going to be on TV?

A: Our family has been approached about doing a TV show multiple times in the past, but turned them down. It’s kind of funny. When we were little, we used to have bets on which one of our siblings would be famous. It was either going to be an NFL star or a dramatic actress, but now look, we’re ALL on TV.

Q: What is the best part about your experience?

A: The best part is being ableto spread our message as a fam-ily. Being able to spread love and acceptance has been an incredible opportunity through the TV show. Plus, it’s exciting!

Q: What is the worst part about you experience?

A: Long hours!! It can get ex-hausting!

Q: Would you be on TV again if you could?

A: Sure, if the opportunity came along!

Q: Do the cameramen ever leave? Explain how it all works.

A: They were at our home at 8 o’clock in the morning until 8 o’clock at night. They were con-stantly interviewing our parents throughout the home, which made it almost impossible to get a mid-day snack. Along with the inter-views, they recorded our everyday lives. Our parents are still being interviewed by newspapers and other media.

Q: Is your life still the same since the show, or has it changed?

A: It is pretty much the same. While the cameras are there, it’s a bit more chaotic! After the show premiered, we got more than a few stares in the halls!

Staff Writer Coming from a family where all of her children compete in ro-deo and rodeo pageants, Tammy Knickerbocker wanted to create a business where her children could get involved and brought togeth-er what everyone loved to do. What better than western clothing store? But, having a family-involved business isn’t the only thing that makes Tammy’s store unique. While she does sell western wear, boy’s hats and boots will be avail-able soon; her clothes are able to modernize. While you can buy a western dress, it has patterns and styles that you can make current, and

therefore, draws to a larger audi-ence. Before Knickerbocker opened Pistol Packing Cowgirls and Cowboys, the closest western clothing stores were located in Spanish Fork and Salina, a hassle to get to for each. Knickerbocker thought a western clothing store in Nephi would thrive and said, “Nephi is a western town. We’re known for our big rodeo and our fair week. Also, we’re located at a crossroad between some major towns, in-cluding Delta and Sanpete, and there’s a lot of freeway traffic.You’d have to hit Nephi. It is a good location.” Some of the key items at this new western wonder are of course the western wear, but also, Knick-erbocker specializes in making beautiful and unique, hand-made jewelry. Soon, she will be offer-ing a variety of men’s clothing, including as I mentioned above, hats and boots for all the cowboys out there. Pistol Packing Cowgirls and Cowboys is relatively easy to find, and takes the spot of theFrosty Freeze space, and her sign can be seen all the way up main street as she renews the Frosty Freeze sign with a design of her own. The address is 1050 north Main Street,rightnexttoConoco.Thestore is open 10-7 on weekdays, and 10-8 on Saturdays. Drop by to see all the latest trends in western clothing in a friendly and family-oriented en-vironment!

Juab’s Celebrity Look Alikes! This month, we kept our eyes out for a student celebrity look-a-likes roaming our halls.

A few were already at the tips of our tounges (*cough*, Delayna),

but others took extensive research.

After our findings, we realized Juab High has

many look-alikes, so much so that they could

practically be twins!

Jake From State Farm

A most mysterious endeavor has come to Juab High School. It creeps in the halls like the basilisk in the Chamber of Se-crets. It carries the stench of fortuitous, yet witty, amuse-ment. While the entire student body is trotting and tripping throughfieldsofschoolingandadolescence, something else is going on. Why is it occur-ring? Why is it surfacing from the depths now? Why must it follow the stench of raging hor-monesandAxetoourbelovedschool? Why, Jake from State Farm?

You could tell something was certainly different this year. Something, strange. Our fellow comrade, Timothy Cov-ington, even quoted “Tenor Pride!” when questioned by the matter. But this is not the case of matter concerning the wan-dering vending machines. Nay, that was the last issue of the be-loved Clarion. Now is the time to spoon out the dish for Jake. Right off with the start of the year, came this school boy wor-thy prank. From all corners of the grounds came cakes decked in insightful and endearing

compliments with the signa-ture: Jake from State Farm. This mysterious cult has even branched out to the point of us-ingexpomarker,andinscribingkind, yet random and strange comments in lockers. But let us not produce worry and concern from our fellow administration and janitorial staff: This ongo-ing prank is quite innocent. Or is it? Nah it’s probably inno-cent. But if it’s not, I’m sure our team of gossiping teenage girls will put themselves on the caseofsniffingitout!
