November 6, 2012marks one o the mostcontested eections inthe history o our unioncame to a cose. For quitesome time, Romney wasin the ead. Obama puedthrough just in time tobe reected or our moreyears o presidency, thanksto Caiornias 55 eectoravotes.
The na tay putObama at 51% o thepopuar vote, and 332eectora coege votes.
This and side win over theopponent Mitt Romney hasorced the entire nationinto an uproar. Even thoughthe popuar vote was cose,with Romney puing in49%, the eectora coegeagain did not representthe peope or the secondtime in 12 years. Romneys206 eectora votes paed incomparison to the 332 thatObama was abe to bringin. This has again ormedtension between current,ong standing eectorasystem and the new directvote system that has gainedground since the asco thatwas the 2000 eection.
What most peope inthe U.S. dont understandis how our current systemo voting works. Each statein the Union is given acertain number o votes;these votes represent thestates voices in Congress.So every state gets twovotes or their Senators, andhow ever many House o
Representatives membersthe state has determinesthe rest o the votes. Thenthe question arises ohow a state votes the waythat it does. Each state isbroken into smaer districts
caed counties, and thesecounties are broken downurther into precincts.Since popuation variesrom county to county andprecinct to precinct, someareas have a stronger voicethan others.
So when each precincthas voted the eader in thatparticuar precinct gets thestate vote o that precinct.
The person who takes themajority o the precinct ina state gets the eectoravote, but this is not true in
a states. In swing statessuch as Forida, Ohio,Nevada, North Caroina thestate counties work muchthe same as the eectorasystem. So i Idaho was torun this coege eectoraike system then FremontCounty might ony have3 votes, but Boise Countymight have 12 based onthe size o each countyspopuation. Because othis in swing states such asForida or Ohio the amounto campaigning that a
candidate does vary romcounty to county in eachstate.
With Obamas win,he has our more years tocontinue his presidency.Many o his pans wicontinue and America winot see as big o a changeas they woud have seenwith Mitt Romney.
Ater 18 months ospending, campaigning,poitica ads, and pos, theeection is nay over. Ater
one o the cosest races inhistory, Barack Obama isre-eected President o theUnited States. Miions opeope sat at home bitingtheir nais over the coseeection. Each candidateseectora votes were neck-in-neck, but the rea statesthat mattered were Ohio,Forida, Virginia, andNevada. Romney wonVirginia and Nevada. Andater some ExTREMElY cosecas, Forida and Virginiaboth went to President
Obama. There was o coursesome conusion about Ohiosince the race was caedbeore the entire state wasuy counted, but Ohio stiswung democratic.
Mitt Romney, themutimiionaire who toutedhis business credentias asthe Repubican presidentiahopeu, aied to convincevoters that he was the manto unseat President BarackObama and jump-start theeconomy. We have givenour a to this campaign,
Romney tod supporters inhis concession speech. I sowish that I had been abeto u your hopes to eadthe country in a diferentdirection, but the nationchose another eader, andso Ann and I join with youto earnesty pray or him
and this great nation. Theresut brought an endto Romneys ongtimeambitions to become thenations commander-in-chie. He had come upshort in the GOP primary
in 2008, but maintained hisambition and aunched his2012 candidacy on a arm inNew Hampshire.
He stomped acrossthe nation, ocusing onkey swing states such asOhio and Forida, seinghimse as the utimateaternative to Obama -- aman who understood howto the economy andwho had worked across theaise as governor in argeyDemocratic Massachusetts.
America is a and o
opportunity. But atey,or too many Americans,opportunity has not eactycome knocking, Romneywrote in a recent opinionpiece on CNN.com. Wevebeen mired in an economicsowdown that has etmiions o our eowcitizens unempoyed. Theconsequences in dreamsshattered, ives disrupted,pans deerred, and hopesdimmed can be ound aaround us. The son o aormer Michigan governor

While seniors, juniors,and sophomores arebusy with school work,the reshmen are busytoo. Socially, that is. Thereshman class had thechance to party hard onOctober 19, and many madethe best out o their $5 passor 2 hours at the Frosh AlleyParty. Freshman studentSierra Enders said that Thebest part is getting outo class, while Ashlee Fieclaimed she loved Gettingto spend time with mybest riend Emily Bell. Thereshman enjoyed the party,like Sarah Wright who said,Yes, the partys great, anyparty with ood is great.However, there has been a
reshman party in the past,but it wasnt continued until
this year. Student NathanWoolstenhulme allegedthat the incoming reshmanclass or next year shouldhave a party because Its awelcoming or reshman.All in all, the class o 2016was quite impressed andvery received with theirintroduction to CanyonRidge High School.
These grateulreshmen had their PTA tothank or their ood and un.Frosh Alley is being usedto und the Class o 2016
all-night party when theyare seniors. There used tobe a grant or the seniorsall-night party, but now wehave this to und it instead.said Julie Bastian, one o thePTA members and parento one the reshmen. The
PTA arranged it, setting upactivities such as Twister,
Tug o War Basketball, SumoWrestling, and the legendarybounce house. Ater allthat bouncing, twisting,and tugging, the reshmencould go get rereshments,including oods donatedor the cause, such as FallsBrand Hot-Dogs, Kiwi Loco,and drinks provided by theparents. But the donationsdidnt end there; there wasa rae or 3 ITunes gitcardsworth ten dollars each andCanyon Ridge High Schoolbracelets. Overall the party
had a great turn-out andwas a most jubilant estivalor the new CRHS reshmen,and it hopeully will not bethe last. Freshmen o theuture, look out or the next,un-packed reshman alleyparties at Canyon Ridge.

The very thought o
having a needles in onesarm scares many. Although,people are more than happyto have a needle in their armonce Red Cross comes or ablood drive. Every so oten,students o Canyon Ridgehear about an upcomingblood drive. Many mayshudder in ear, while othersare enthusiastic about theopportunity.
Red Cross came toCanyon Ridge on October19. From 8:30 1:30,students let class and
headed up to the blooddrive in the upstairs gym.Anyone o the age o 16 andolder and eligible to donate,but that doesnt mean thatthey will. Some people maybe ineligible because o lowiron, medical issues, ect.Senior Hailey Miller was atthe blood drive, donatingor her 2nd time. When askedwhy she donates, Haileysimply shrugs and replies, Iwant to; it helps others.
Everyone who donatesreceives the Red Cross
Honors Program card. Theseare handed out and signedby Debi Manler, DonorRepresentative. Eachstudent who donates threetimes during high schoolreceives the Red Cross cordsto wear at graduation, itshows their commitment.
Mitchell Nielsen
donated blood his rsttime at this blood drive,explaining, Since its senior
year, its my last year to doanything. I was araid thatI would miss out on all theun stu once I get out ohigh school. Mitchell alsoshares that to get his mindo the needle, he thoughto the delicious cookiesthat would come ater.
For those who arearaid o needles, or givingblood, dont be. One blooddonation can help save upto three lives. Debi Manlersays a word o advice, itsa one second pinch; just
visualize a small baby withleukemia who could usethat blood during that onesecond. In Idaho, 250 pintsare needed each day, andCanyon Ridge contributedapproximately 100 pints.16% o blood donations arerom high school students.

Malala Yousazai is aschool girl in rom the town
o Mingora in the SwatDistrict o Pakistans KhyberPakhtunkhwa province.(Quite the mouth ull huh.)Lots o people are probablythinking, Who cares? Well,Malala is actually reallyimportant. Why? Well inher small town, the Talibanhave taken over and haveorbidden girls and womenrom working and goingto school. In 2009, Malalabegan a blog describing herlie during Taliban rule, theirattempts to take control othe valley, and her viewson promoting educationor girls. The next summer,a documentary lm abouther lie as the Pakistanimilitary invaded the regionand began the SecondBattle o Swat. Malalabegan to rise in popularity.She gave interviews onradios, through letters,and on television. Shetook a position as a chairmember o the DistrictAssembly District Swat, hasbeen nominated or theInternational Youth PeacePrize and has won theNational Youth Peace Prize.
But on October 9, 2012,Malalas lie was changedorever. On the way homerom school on a bus, she
was shot in the head andneck in an assassinationattempt by the Taliban.
The rst ew days ollowingthe attack, she remainedunconscious and in criticalcondition. But once it wasimproved, she was movedto a hospital in the UK orrehabilitation and physicaltherapy. On October 12,Pakistani ocials tried topress charges against thoseresponsible or Malalasdeath. But, as usual, the
Taliban denied having anyinvolvement in the shootingattempt to kill Malala andher Father. Soon, the UnitedNations launched a petition,using the slogan I amMalala. And encouragingall the children o the worldbe enrolled in school by theend o 2015.
So, how does this aectus? Well here in America, wedont have to worry aboutdictators, tyrants, or harshpunishments. Sexism isrowned upon and womencan to anything men cando. Everyone is invited togo to school, participatein sports, and give theiropinions. Here in America,we have Freedom o speech,press, religion, petition,and assembly. But in othercountries, women may nothave the same rights as wedo here. Be a part o themovement! Are you Malala?

Get the running shoesand credit cards ready,its Black Friday timeonce again. While thebiggest discount day othe year may put a dentin Americans wallets, itsprobably the closest onewill get to exercise aterthe huge Thanksgivingdinner that was consumedthe night beore. But whileelbowing your way pastother shoppers to get tothat cheap TV, its time totake a step back and think
saety. On the morning oNovember 22 , everyonegrabs their grandmasand the newspaper to cutout coupons, and planthe activities. Much likethe Super Bowl, the dayo deals has practicallyachieved holiday statusin its own right in recentyears. About 212 millionshoppers fooded mallslast year, according tothe International ParkingInstitute, who are billedas the largest association
o parking proessionals.Some are step by step inplanning, have a point topoint, store to store plan.While others just go crazy onthe town. First time shoppersenior Carrie Cliord says I
might get run over by a ewcarts, have boxes droppedon my head.. maybe takea ew punches... I heard it
gets pretty epic. In 2010,one shopper in Caliorniawas arrested or carrying ahandgun and ammunitionto stores and another wasarrested or threatening toshoot those in line, thoughneither actually hurt othercustomers. While somesmart shoppers choose tostay home on Black Fridayand score their deals online,taking deal or places suchas Best Buy (who wants tocamp out all thanksgivingday just or a computermouse), and Bath and BodyWork (50 hand sanitizers or20 bucks?!); others choosethe more direct approachby waiting in lines rom10 p.m. till open. Then,o course, there was theinamous stampede at aNew York Wal-Mart on BlackFriday three years ago thatresulted in the death o oneemployee. While one mightchuckle over the oddity othe existence o such anorganization and questionthe need thereo, its nota bad idea to brush up onthe saety tips and such toensure a sae and happyBlack Friday experience.And may the deals be everin your avor!

Much to every shoppersdelight, ground has beenbroken on a constructionsite to build a Kohls in TwinFalls. Heavenlee Walkerexclaims, I seriously am soexcited. I just wish they hadstarted building it sooner!
Teenage girls around theMagic Valley are bouncingo the wall to have one
more ashion choice or theirwardrobe. Not known orits overwhelming numbero choices or shopping,
Twin Falls will be home toone more clothing store orwomen and or men.
However, there aremany people who are notas excited as the ladies.
Nature lovers are less thanpleased with one moreobstruction to a veryused trail into the canyon.Unlike major cities, TwinFalls has a quiet peaceulatmosphere that many eelis being overwhelmed withthe major chain stores, likeKohls, that are coming intothe town. Senior and crosscountry runner KendalHall states, I kind o likethe peaceul jog into thecanyon and now it seemslike they are ruining thescenery bit by bit. Walkers,
joggers, runners, bikecyclists, and more agreethat the beautiul sceneryis disappearing aster andaster as time progresses.Soon, many are scared thatnature will be obsolete
in Twin Falls. Luckily, thecanyon and Snake Riverprovide natures gits betterthan almost any landscapeavailable.
Whether an individualis cheerul or sorrowulabout the Kohls coming to
Twin Falls, the store meansthe town is just going tokeep growing. Will theMagic Valley somedaybe overwhelmed withskyscrapers and taxicabs?Everyone will just haveto wait and see. Whetherone likes it or not, Kohlsis the rst tenant plannedin the 25 acre shoppingcenter that is being built.Date o completion is stillnot sure but Twin Falls canexpect sure progress on theshopping center.

NEW YORK _ On whatis expected to be his lastvisit to the United States aspresident o Iran, MahmoudAhmadinejad on Mondayoered an expansive view ohis nations place in historywhile dismissing Israelslong-term viability as a state
and its threat to strike Iransnuclear acilities.
Ahmadinejad ignoredan admonition by U.N.Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to avoid incendiaryremarks while he is in NewYork or the opening o theU.N. General Assembly,lashing out at Israel during abreakast with journalists atthe Warwick Hotel.
Israel, he said, requiresan external confictbecause they have ound
themselves at a dead endand they are seeking newadventures in order toescape this dead end. Iranwill not be damaged byoreign bombs.
Ahmadinejad, whohas nine months let in hissecond and nal term aspresident o the Islamicrepublic, was reerringto Israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahuswarnings that Israel woulduse orce to prevent Iran
rom developing nuclearweapons, something thatTehran denies it is pursuing.
Fundamentally, wedo not take seriously thethreats o the Zionists,he said. We have all the
deensive means at ourdisposal and we are readyto deend ourselves.
The United States andits European allies chargethat Iran is using what itsays is a civilian programas cover to develop thecapacity to build nuclearwarheads. They havebeen joined by Russia andChina in slapping ourrounds o U.N. sanctions
on Tehran. They also haveimposed their own harshermeasures to orce Iran tostop enriching uranium anddisclose ull details o theprogram concealed romU.N. inspectors or 18 years.
President BarackObama, while disagreeingwith Israeli assessmentso how soon Iran couldproduce a nuclear weapon,says that there is moretime or diplomacy. But hehas reserved the option
o striking Iranian nuclearacilities i negotiations _which have all but stalled _ail.
Ahmadinejad wentbeyond dismissing Israelsthreat to strike Irans nuclearacilities, dismissing as wellthe Jewish states long-termviability in the Middle East.
Iran has been aroundor the last seven, 10,000years. They (Israel) havebeen occupying thoseterritories or the last 60 to
70 years with the supportand orce o the Westerners.They have no roots inhistory, he said, reerringto the ounding o modernIsrael in 1948.
We dont even count
them as part o any equationor Iran.
During this historicalphase, they representminimal disturbances thatcome into the picture andare then eliminated, hesaid, ignoring the closerelations that Israel and Iranmaintained until the 1979Islamic Revolution.
In making his remarks,Ahmadinejad _ who is
to address the GeneralAssembly on Wednesday _ignored a warning by Banon Sunday.
The secretary-general drew attentionto the potentiallyharmul consequenceso infammatory rhetoric,counter-rhetoric and threatsrom various countries inthe Middle East, said a U.N.statement issued ater thetwo men met on Sunday.
The statement said
that Ban also askedAhmadinejad to take themeasures necessary to buildinternational condencein the exclusively peaceulnature o its nuclearprogram.
Asked to comment onthe Iranian leaders remarks,White House spokesmanJay Carney said, PresidentAhmadinejad says oolish,oensive and sometimesunintelligible things withgreat regularity.
What he should ocuson is the ailure o hisgovernment o Iran toabide by its internationalobligations, to abide byUnited Nations SecurityCouncil resolutions.
Irans Ahmadinejad: We are
ready to deend ourselves
On November 6, 2012,some major changes weremade to America. We votedon Senators, Governors,and o course the President.But here in Idaho, we wereghting our own battle.Propositions 1, 2, and 3 werebeing voted on. Opposingsides campaigned hardor votes. In 2011 theIdaho Legislature passed apackage o three laws whichmade sweeping changes to
the states education system.The laws were introducedand championed bySuperintendent o PublicInstruction Tom Luna andare known as StudentsCome First, thoughopponents call them theLuna Laws.
The laws have beencontroversial in Idaho, withthe states largest public
teacher union, Democrats
and some Republicanscondemning them. Schooladministrators and boardshave been split on theirsupport. Idahos secondlargest school districtin Boise has voiced itsopposition to the laws. Thethree laws will be split up intoProposition 1, Proposition2, and Proposition 3. Heresa breakdown o what eachlaw contains:
Proposition 1:
D i s t r i c t
superintendents, schooladministrators, and teachersget an annual evaluation. Atleast 50 percent o it mustbe based on measurablestudent growth. Teachersand principals evaluationsmust include parent input.
Teachers andschool administrators getone or two year contracts.
A category o contracts or
experienced teachers thatrenewed automaticallyrom year to year barringmisconduct is eliminated.
These renewable contractswill stay in place i signedbeore 2011.
Proposition 2:
Bonuses areavailable or studentacademic growth measuredby statewide standardizedtests given each spring.Bonuses would go to alladministrators and teachers
at a school with a certainamount o improvement inscores.
All teachers andadministrators at a schoolcould get a bonus i theschools average score onthe spring test is in thetop 50 percent o schoolsstatewide.
Local school
boards will create systems
by which teachers andadministrators can getbonuses based on otherperormance measuressuch as graduation rates,advanced placementclasses taken and parentalinvolvement.
Proposition 3:
A laptop computerwill be provided or allhigh school teachers andstudents. That will takeour years beginning withteachers in all 2012.
As determinedby the Idaho Board oEducation, students musttake two semester-longonline classes to graduate.
Parents can enrollstudents in any qualiedonline course withoutdistrict permission.
High schools
will get more money to
help pay or the costs oproviding more math andscience classes to meet newgraduation requirements.
With nearly all theresults tallied rom Idahos967 precincts, voters clearlysaid no to Propositions 1, 2and 3.
More than 645,000votes were cast in eacho the Props. Each othe propositions ailedby at least 15 percent.Proposition 3, the measure
that corresponds to givingeach high school student alaptop, ailed by the largestmargin, with 66 percent ovoters rejecting it.
Now that voters haveweighed in on the trio olaws, its up to lawmakers
and stakeholders to
determine what happens
next.

president o the United
States. Refecting on that
note now, Barlow said, I
was that impressed with his
executive abilities and him
as a leader.
Barlow is a proessor
and the director o the re-
ligious studies program at
Utah State University. He
served as a counselor tothen-Bishop Romney in the
Church o Jesus Christ o
Latter-day Saints. Portrayals
o Romney as being out o
touch with the poor seem
kind o silly to me, Barlow
said. I knew him on that
level o real human stu as
opposed to the public im-
age, Barlow said. The man
that I knew is
not a carica-
ture. Hes not
a man with-
out compas-
sion or the
poor. But it is
that image o
Romney, an
out-o-touch
rich guy who
shipped jobs
overseas as
the head o Bain Capital that
stuck. During various stages
along the way, Romney said
corporations are people
and that he likes being able
to re people. And that was
long beore his now ina-
mous 47% moocher line.
Romneys Republican
opponents in the primaries,
and the Obama campaign
and Democrats ater that,
helped create that carica-
ture, dening Romney tothe electorate beore Rom-
ney tried to show them who
he was. At one point, senior
Romney aide Eric Fehrn-
strom said the all campaign
is like Etch A Sketch. You
can shake it up and we start
all over again. It was a com-
ment that dogged the cam-
paign and only served as
political odder o Romney
as a fip-fopper and a candi-
date with no core values.
When you look backon this election, when you
look back to the prima-
ries, when you look back
to Mitt Romney moving to
the right on immigration,
Borger said, I think it was a
huge opportunity that they
missed.
There will be gnashing
o teeth in the days, weeks
and months
ahead. What
lies in store or
the Republican
Party remains
a long way o.
Shortly beore
1 a.m. Wednes-
day, Romney
walked onto a
stage in Boston
and told the
crowd he had
called Obama to congratu-
late him on the victory. I
pray that the president will
be successul in guiding our
nation, he said.
At the end, he walked
rom the podium to the
middle o the stage and
gave his wie a kiss. Run-
ning mate Paul Ryan and his
wie, and the Romney am-
ily members joined as the
crowd chanted, Mitt! Mitt!
Mitt! Ater mixed emotions,the world continued to turn
and we has Barack Obama
or our years.

Tis the season osharing, but share whatexactly? While attendingschool and work, most o usnd ourselves surroundedby runny noses and Rudol-look-alikes. Meanwhile,others are coughing andsneezing their brains out.
This year preventing thecommon cold and u is ontop o many holiday wishlists.
Sara McLain, senior,states, Use good sanitation.
Wash your hands! Getenough sleep; get enoughvitamin C and probiotics.Stay out o the cold weatherand stay away rom sickpeople. McLain is right, themore one uses sanitationthe better! That is the rststep in preventing thespreading o germs andbacteria.
According to Dr.Alexandra Valsamakis(Director o ClinicalVirology and MolecularMicrobiology), the most
easily targeted or at riskor the inuenza seasonare pregnant women,children under the age ove years old, adults 50years o age or older, andthose with chronic healthcomplications.
This time o year, theu shot is imperative. I one
likes to use excuses, suchas Im terried o needles,
there is no need to ear!There is a nasal spray thatacts the same as the u shot.However, there are diferentside efects. There are alsodiferent recommendationsor age groups and lists othose who are eligible.
The u shot is thevaccine used given byinjection. The most requentside efects are sorenessin the upper arm. The ushot is used or adultsand children six monthso age. The u shot is not
recommended or peoplewho have allergies to eggs,or have had any previouscomplications in receivingthe u vaccine.
The nasal u vaccine,also known as the FluMist,is sprayed into the nose. Itis a live vaccine, unlike theu shot, which is made romdead inuenza virus andcannot give one the u. Thevirus has been weakened sothat it cannot cause the u,though one may experienceu-like symptoms. The side
efects are usually minor,but can be more severethan the shot vaccine.
Either way, it is wise orone to get their u vaccineASAP! Many are currentlyexperiencing this horribleplague, the only way toavoid it is to be preparedand protected; be sure toget the u shot!

Be sure to do all sev-
enty things beore gradua-
tion. Time is running out!
Today, girls everywhereare highly concerned abouttheir hair. Many wish anddream o a day where theymay magically awaken withbeautiul and shiny straighthair. Its quite rare or peopleto have naturally straighthair, and is considered ablessing by envious peers.Just about every girl has aat iron or a curling iron intheir home, but many areunaware o the damaging
efects it can have on oneshair. Applying unnecessaryheat to the hair will causedamage.
Most people choose tosimply blow dry their hair,and use heat to style it.Although, i one wants torestore the health and lieo their hair, ways o stylingwill need to be altered. A noheat way to straighten haircan be accomplished witha an and a paddle brush.Sitting in ront o a large an,slowly brush the hair, and
the hair will dry straight.This method proves to betime consuming, but muchmore healthy.
There are quite a large
number o ways to curl or
crimp hair without any heat.One will nd various ideason You Tube, and everyoneis bound to nd somethingthat is the best or them.One common way is to braidthe hair ater showering,
just beore going to bed.The way that one braids, willdetermine their next dayhair.
One can either put inmultiple braids, or a simpletwo will do enough justice.
The wet hair dries overnightin the braids, and in the
morning become a crimpedlook that girls, and guys,adore.
Laura Olsen, junior,says, I never style myhair. I usually dont havethe time but its not likeI would want to burn myhair either. It takes a lot otime to straighten my hairand then it just gets burnt.I I want curly hair my mombraids it or me and I sleepwith the braids overnight.Heat eventually leaves thehair dead and dry, with
countless split ends. So whynot stop the problem at thesource? Keep your hair 450degrees cooler with theseno heat ways.

Thanksgiving traditionBY SABRYNA SCHMIDT
Sta Writer
Every year peopleget super excited to goshopping and buy things orway cheap. But the matter oit all is, can they get it rst?Black Friday, the one dayeach year that businessessell their items or a lowerprice and try to get out owhat they call, the redand into the black allowsa business to boost theirtotal sale prices sky rocket.Sabina Sabic, 12 explains
Black Friday as, the time oyear to get discounted stuater Thanksgiving and toget cheap present to laterwrap up or Christmas.
Back then, Black Fridaywas a little simpler andpeople only expected to getup at midnight knowing thestores wouldnt open until5 am.. but now, things havegotten a little worse. Overthe past ve years, the storeshave opened their doorsrom 5 a.m. to 4 a.m., 3 a.m.,and sometimes midnight.
People get outraged anddecide to cut Thanksgivingshort with their amily justto stand in line or a doorbuster deal that he or shemight not even get. Is itreally worth it? Sabina Sabic,
12 says, I only plan on
waiting in line or VictoriasSecret because they planon giving away a ree totebag with the purchaseo $65 or more and its agood deal because youllget a ree $80 bag insteado spending $145 or so.
So, one can get agreat deal and even leadto getting ree stu, butwhat should one NOT get?According to the ABC Newsat go.com, they created a listo the top ten things not tobuy. Number one was toys.
Parents love to spoiltheir kids with toys duringChristmas, but a researchshowed that even just threeweeks beore Christmas, thepopular toys dropped evenmore o a percentage thenthey did during Black Friday.
Number two was namebrand TVs, better dealshappen ater the BlackFriday sale. In act, mosto their listed items statedthat they would and usuallyend up having a better saleprice ater Black Friday.
One included in the listwas jewelry and watches,apparently the value andpricing o the jewelry orwatches go down andbasically have no valueto them. So what are the
things to get? Kaleb Price,
12 says, I plan on gettingmovies because some othe newer movies are goingto be like ve bucks. Theyremany good deals going onrom fat-screen televisionsto a new long-board.
As usual though, thebiggest sales are on theclothing items. SabinaSabic also said, I plan ongetting sweats and maybea ew scars. I hope to getsome new pants; ater all itsgetting cold! So, i theresanyone that loves the
Holiday shopping seasonand plans on getting somereally decent deals, BlackFriday might just be the besttime o year. Yes, sometimesone might have to wait inlong lines and speaking olong lines; Kaleb also noted,I dont plan on waitingin the long lines unlesstheres something I reallywant. I also probably justwont sleep on Black Fridaybecause Im sure Ill end upgoing with my sister andollowing her around and
others no point in sleepingwhen shell want to bethere super early. As statedbeore, a lot o people enjoyshopping whether its on aregular basis or on a super-sale day like Black Friday.

Undercover Aerobics
Not exactly knownor a vigorous workout,water aerobics classes havebeen criticized by manywho claim that the classesare only or old women.However, many o thesecritics have never actuallytried or participated inan actual class so whatis the truth? Are wateraerobics specically justor old women? Do wateraerobics provide an actual
workout or everyone?A water aerobics classat the YMCA on ElizabethStreet provided all o theseanswers and more. Notsure exactly what I was inor, I decided to participatein one class where thetype o gender and agegroup varies greatly.
I gured, i a sixtyyear old women or mancan handle the workout, ahealthy seventeen year oldshould be able to keep up.
Overcondent and
willing to try, I got in thewater and started theworkout. It was not but tenminutes beore I realizedthat I was wrong. Luckily,all the ladies and men weresome o the nicest people
that I have ever met. They
encourage each otherto do better and provideconstructive criticism whena new participant is doingan exercise incorrectly.
The environmentprovided a positive mind-set. I quickly learnedthat it was a legitimateworkout and regrettedmy nonchalant attitude.
I was ready to catchmy breath and sit downor a while. I learned thateven though it doesnt looklike the ladies or men in
water aerobics are doingmuch, they are workingharder than one thinks.
Participants workas hard as they possiblycan. I got tired quickerand learned that pacingones sel is a skill learnedwith time. It is impossibleto catch ones beat.
The hour long classwiped me out. The workoutsthat everyone degradesare way harder when eachindividual is doing themto his/her ull capacity.
What I put in is what Igot out. This is basically thesame principle used or anyactivity. Instead o sayingrude things about wateraerobics classes, why not saysomething positive or try it!

Riverhawk Review - Twin Falls, ID - Tuesday, November 20, 2012 Opinion6Taking a stand against animal abuse
What would one dowhen he or she is drug orover hal o a mile behinda car? When he was nallysaved and could only eel
the pain o deep cuts andblood gushing rom hisace and body? Trying toclean his body by lickingthe pain away but it was toohard to handle. What couldone do or even say? Wouldsomeone rather just want todie, or live? Animal abuse isa tragic and terriying andno animal should ever haveto go through.
According to www.humanesociety.org, mostcases o abused animalsare let unreported. In 2007,
over 1,880 o animal abusewere reported in the U.S.64.5% (1,212) were dogs,
18% (337) were cats, 25%
(470) were other types oanimals. Its only gottenworse. The aspca.org saidthat every ten seconds, ananimal is beaten or abused.Jacob Newton, senior,addresses, I think animalabuse is terrible, they are notany dierent rom people.So why do they deservethat? Animals may not bedierent rom people, butpeople get abused too andmaybe that is why humanstake their anger out onanimals. But still, animals
have a beating heart too.They see what is being doneto them and eel it. Ninthgrader, Ashlynn Hall notes,I think animal abuse ishorrible! Whoever treats ananimal like that should gethurt to and possibly deathpenalty!
Lets say you witnessedthe neighbor beat his dogevery time he dug a holein the backyard, the littleboy across the street putthe stray cat in a box andkicked it, the armers didnt
eed their horses becausethey wouldnt stand upbecause they were so
weak. What would you do?
Alyxis Cederstrom, senior,responds, I am completelyagainst animal abuse,i I witnessed someoneabusing animals; ugly wordswould be ying out o mymouth, I would try stoppingit and then call the police!Personally, we would aswell try to stop the animalabuse i we were to see it.I it meant risking gettinginto trouble, we would takethose animals out o thehouses i no one else would.It is the towns animal police
and animal shelters to takein animals or protection.We understand that the
Twin all Animal Shelter isgetting overcrowded andhas to put more and moreanimals down, so i theresanyone that can adopt adog or even a kitten, pleasedo!
I there is anybody elsethat is also against animalabuse, log onto aspca.com and take the pledgeto stop animal abuse, youthen should get an e-mail
giving you advice on howyou can help. Same withald.com, their home page
has a Sign the Petition
button that one can do tohelp Americas animals. Inact, theyre also trying toget a bill passed to supportthe cause and protectanimals rom cruelty andhurt. More than a quarter-million Americans havealready signed the AnimalLegal Deense Funds theAnimal Bill o Rights (www.ald.com). Animals haverights too, whether it s romthe mans best riend to ahorse or a duck; they have alie too.
A lot o people liketo bring up the act thathunting is a orm o animalabuse, but think o how weeat. Some people cant justsurvive o o corn or wheat,and meat is a vital ood onthe ood-triangle. Senior,Aaron Burton says, Man isdominantanimals hunteach other too and sincewe are the dominant race,I dont believe hunting isanimal abuse. Hunting isnot animal abuse, unlessit is done inhumanely. Yes,
its sad to see them dieand butchered but thatshow the circle o lie is. It
is dierent when being
compared to a rib showinghorse or a limping dog. Thatis the serious issue here onanimal abuse and they dontdeserve it!
Editorial: suicide awareness
Fortunately orunortunately, we dontlive in a perect world. Justas all heart attacks cantbe prevented, neither canall suicides, but like heartattacks, there are steps wecan take to prevent moreo them rom occurring. AOASPC Suicide.
Everyone knowssomeone who has beenaected by suicide, orthey themselves havebeen directly aected. It isnothing to joke about, andit is nothing to take lightly.Some say suicide is selsh,some say its no big deal,while others are thinking itis the only way out.
Every suicide and everydeath is a tragedy. So whydoes that make it okay orothers to be played o asmore important?
Why is it that everyonegets more upset when apretty girl commits suicidethere has to be a hugeordeal about it whereas the
nerd or geek or someonenot as attractive to thepublic eye commits suicide,and goes completelyunnoticed? Why is it thatour society has grown to beshaped like this?
Why is suicide socommon? What is it that is
giving people the reasonto think that they onlyhave one way out, withthat option being sel-harmand then leading to death?And why is it some suicidesare more advertised, orgloried, so to say, thanothers? Many o thesequestions are unansweredand most o the time it istoo late to get the answer.
Raven Oesterlein,senior, is doing her seniorproject on Anti-Bullying.She says that studies have
shown that one out o ourteenagers are being bulliedacross America. She chosethis topic because shethought to hersel, I wecould get rid o bullying,then we can reducethe death rates in teenseverywhere.
It is like our generation
to act like barbarians, kidsbeing pushed around byother kids, is just beyondridiculous.
It is not just the physicalbullying that goes around.A lot o it can be verbal andemotional. Raven says, Iyou see it, or hear it, do not
let it happen! Just put a stopto it and stand up or once.
Everything adds up.From bullying to depression,to everything just being sooverwhelming, there areways to get help! But thosewho are struggling dontseem to realize that theyreally are cared about andthat there are many ways toget help.
The sad truth is, notevery suicide can bestopped or prevented, butthere are numerous ways to
make them less common.The most important
thing to do is to step upand be the one to make asimple, positive dierencein someones lie, whether itis a simple smile and a hello,or starting a conversationwith someone that is new oris a stranger.

Bills vs. plastic
Cash is owing intobank accounts everywhereto the employed, and thereare various ways thesepeople can spend their cash.
Not what they purchase, buthow they purchase. With animmense amount o coldhard cash, teenagers eelthe need to go to the bankand get a debit card. Debitcards give people easieraccess to their cash whenneeded, especially on daysthat the bank is closed.
I personally canceledmy debit card in February o2012. Now, 9 months later,I am very happy with mydecision. I ound that witha card, I did not see a limit
in my spending. I would goto the gas station and get asoda and some candy justbecause I could.
Now that I carry cash, Iactually watch my moneydisappear beore my beadylittle eyes, thereore makingme much more aware o myspending (and cheap).
Hunter Pollard, senior,says, I wanted to buy myriend something, but Ialways carry a card! A cardis easier, but some placesdont take cards. Although acard may be easier, it cannotalways be used. I wish thetaco truck would take cards.I enjoy tacos immensely butam sometimes deprivedwhen I am without cash,states Hunter Pollard.
Also, cards can be lostand eventually stolen. Icash is dropped, that isall that is lost. I a card islost, a thie may drain theaccount o all unds, leavinga saver with no money totheir name. This can bedevastating to those whoare currently saving up orcollege or a car.
It is always better tocarry cash saely in a wallet,instead o one imsy cardthat can be broken.
There are many studiesshowing that those whocarry cash are much moreaware o their spending,and are better spenders.

Thanksgiving grub
Once again, Novemberhas hit, and with it, dreamso everything rom turkeywith stufng to sweetpotatoes topped withmarshmallows and even theinamous pumpkin pie withreshly whipped cream. Onthe 25th everyone has thatone anticipation or dinner,that one desirable, mouth-watering, irreplaceable dish.Oh, but what to choose?
Well, rst o, there isturkey, and who cant denysome o that scrumptiousmeat? I know I cant, andsometimes it can comedown to tooth and nail toget the piece that everyoneelse wants, so it may bea dish over o to the sidethat catches the eye. Somany things like mashedpotatoes with turkey gravy(yeah, just a little bit moreo bird heaven), or greenbean casserole, or sweetpotatoes, and deviled eggs,
dont get me started.I know that when itcomes to Thanksgiving, Iam drooling beore we evennish breakast, and I mightas well orget lunch, becausenot only is it Thanksgiving
dinner, it is Thanksgivingdinner at Grandmas house.Taking that into account, itis always best to see whatoods there will be, likeanticipating your Christmaspresents, which is whatyou also think about atereating all that wonderulood, but anyways back ontrack. Like I said, there isalways one dish that sticksout among the rest, andwhat is it? It is desert aterall and sends my taste budsto Wonderland and that is,
yes, you guessed correctly,pumpkin pie. This all-timedesert classic makes even apie-hater like me loosen upand eat a slice, and that issaying something. Everyoneshould at least try thisdelicious dessert that hasbeen in American homesas a tradition or decades.
There is no excuse or noteven attempting to likeand try this amazing pie.Please just try it. Just do it.In the end, Thanksgivingis denitely something to
celebrate, and my passionor pumpkin has yet tocease, so choose some oodand dig in, ater all, theyonly appear on the sametable once a year.
The outcome o thepresidential election is wellknown. However, what werethe actors behind PresidentBarack Obamas win? ManyAmericans tuned intothe presidential debatesto learn about the views,standpoints, and policiesthat both candidates hadin mind. Did the outcomeo the presidential debatesreect the nal outcome
o the election? The pollsater the debates showedthe winner in the minds othe American populous andthose polls reected thatBarack Obama won two outo the three debates. Thepresidential debates werea deciding actor in whichcandidate won the election.
Governor Mitt Romneywas claimed to havewon the rst presidentialdebate. Megan Mayo, asenior at CRHS, states, ThePresident just did not show
up to the debate. He wasbeat by Romney hands-down. All o the pointsthat Romney made justmade sense to me. Viewersdecisively picked Romneyas the winner o the rst
debate. Students at CRHScouldnt deny that Romneyhad a better stance thanObama. Heavenlee Walker,senior at CRHS, explains, Ithought Romney did welleven though Im undecidedabout who I support. Pollsor intended votes swayedin Romneys avor.
The second debateunolded a more aggressiveObama and a win or thePresident. Instead o beingdeensive, the Presidentsurprised many viewers and
took a turn at being oensiveand clashing directly withGovernor Romney onmajor economic issues.
Taking questions rom theaudience, President BarackObama did a better jobsupporting his stance andthe result was a declarationthat Obama won the seconddebate. Since this debatehelped restore aith in thedemocratic candidate,voters leaned more on theside o the President.
A similar outcome o
the second debate, thethird debate also reecteda win or the President.Foreign policy is a soresubject or Americans andObama did a good jobdeending his stance as well
as attacking his opponentpossible uture policies.Romney seemed to be moredeensive during the debateand ell short when it wastime to decide who won.President Obama spoketo the American peopleand the polls imitated thesecond debate results.Obama had a heavier swayo voters leaning on his sidegoing into the election.
Winner o two outthree presidential debatesand now winner o the
presidential election,President Obama cameout ghting throughouthis campaign and duringthe debates. The votersswayed as the debateresults were broadcastedacross the nation. Thedebates provided a wayor Americans to see andunderstand what bothopponents had to oer andthe upsides and downsideso each candidates policies.
These debates truly do helpvoters decide on who to
vote or based purely onthe polls ater each debate.Mirroring the outcome othe debates, the electionshowed that the winner andstill President o the UnitedStates is Barack Obama.

At the start o this
last summer everyone let
the school without a care
or thought in the world.
No one had the slightest
thought that disaster could
strike at any moment.
Yet strike it did with just
two weeks let o summer
break. As students eagerly
awaited the return o their
avorite activities whether
it is weight-liting or art.Everyone came in with high
aspirations and candied
dreams o the uture. But as
some ound out, those were
merely dreams.
The entire drama
department was shocked
to nd out that the three
year CRHS drama teacher
Ms. Carey had let without
warning or precedent.
But out o darkness there
always comes a light. Thedepartment ound this
light in the ever-loveable
Mr. Isaacs. Who, when push
came to shove took up the
mantle and successully
steered drama out o the
steep nose dive that it had
been let in.
He not only saved the
entire department rom
a ery crash, but he also
was able to put it on a
more sinless course. Such
implemented changes that
he produced was the muchsought or drama club that
has seen a unprecedented
amount o success. When
asked about recent projects
that he might have on the
burners to get the hawk
name out there, he was
pretty lock-and-key in his
answers. He gave some
rather vague reerences
towards what could possibly
be a joint musical with TFHS
called Urine Town.When asked i this was
a one time deal between
the two schools, he said
that he hoped not, since
each department has their
strengths and weaknesses,
and when the two schools
get together there ceases
to be any areas that lack in
each other. Even though
Mr. Isaacs has only been
here or little over a quarter
he has quickly become a an
avorite with his inspiring
save o a would be bust year.

Sarah has a loveor art, and it can be seenclearly in her work. Justrecently, she was crownedas Artist Student o the
Week in the Times-News, towhich she explains that hermom was so excited, thatshe had taken every copyrom her work.
This shows her greatachievements as an artist,and that not only her schoolrecognizes it, but othersaround Twin Falls have.Sarah Llamas discoveredher love or art aroundthe 7th grade, and hastransormed immenselysince then. Although it isher last year in high school,
she does not plan to stopher art anytime soon. Sheplans to carry on her talentsthroughout college, andpossibly majoring in art.
It takes a lot o time,patience, vivid imaginary,and creativity. Wait...does creativity go withimaginary? Sarah Llamasasks with a smile. Her avoritepiece at the moment is hersurrealist painting, whichhad taken her about two to
three weeks to complete.Despite this amount o time,it is not the longest time shehas spent on her art.
Her monochromatichad taken Sarah about amonth and a hal to nish,which is a long process, butcertainly pays o in the end.
My avorite artist andinspiration would have to beKat Von D. Shes an amazingartist when she drawsanything; its something outo the ordinary. She doesntpretend to be something
shes not, explains Sarah.Kat Von D is well-knownas a talented tattoo artiston the show LA Ink. Heravorite style is surrealism,which would explain whyher avorite piece o art isher surrealist painting.
Although Sarah is anall-around artist, she preersto use paint and coloredpencils. Sarah is a antasticartist, so keep an eye out orher next piece!

New York Times Bestseller review
It is that time o yearagain; time or cuddling upto a warm re with a cozyblanket and, o course, a newbook. There are hundreds onew bestsellers or the avidreaders o Canyon RidgeHigh School to choose.From non-ction to horrorto ction, there is a book oreveryone. This months NewYork Times Bestsellers listhas multitudes o materialthat any student will ndenjoyable.
The rst book to takethe top spot on the ctionlist is called Down To You;written by M. Leighton.In this zappy love story, awoman is home rom thechaos o college lie tohelp in her athers ailingstore. The town is the sameas she let it, yet there is anew amily in town. Thisparticular amily has twinsons who happen to all inlove with the same girl. Thekicker? This young womanis in love with not just onetwin but both. The mushy
gooey story is ull o laughsand humor that will keepthe reader captivated till thevery last page.
Another great read isa book called Heaven Is ForReal, written by Todd Burpowith Lynn Vincent. Thisnon-ction read is a chillingaccount o a ather and his 3year old son. However, thisis not ones average story.
The ather tells the tale ohis toddlers encounter withJesus and his angels duringan appendectomy. Theboy awoke with tall taleso having gone to heavenand back. The small boyremembers every detail,including Jesus eye color.
This book cannot be putdown.
In the new novel NYPDRed, by James Pattersonand Marshall Karp, a spine-tingling horror story takesplace. A classic Pattersonnovel, a detective and hispartner must hunt downa deranged psychopath.
The novel holds a bit oromance as Detective ZachJordans new partner is hisex-girlriend. The two must
move past their previousrelationship in order to worktogether to nd the killer.
Time is ticking as the killer snew target is the annualNew York Film Festival. Willthey nd him? Pick up thebook today and nd out.
Finally, or those historyjunkies out there, here is yetanother antastic read. Theone and only Bill OReillyhas recounted the story oKennedy in his novel, KillingKennedy. The book delvesinto the events surroundingKennedys assassinationand the science behind it.OReilly knocks down themyths and conspiracies withhis sarcastic mannerisms.Anyone interested andwilling to read Kennedysstory should denitelyconsider this hardcover.
All o theses booksare great reads so it is orobvious reasons that theseended up on the New YorkTimes Bestsellers list. Each iscapable o causing endlesshours o reading. I the needarises or an interesting reador advisory book reportsthis next quarter.

The lights dim, the
crowd quiets, the stage is
a shroud o mystery as the
audience eagerly awaits
the appearance o the
actor. The spot lights turn
on almost as i someone
has summoned them rom
the depths o the darkness
that precedes the stage. As
the bedazzled eyes slowly
adjust to startling brilliance
that has become the stagethe actor enter. This is the
moment that everyone
has been anticipating.
The anxiety mounts to an
unbearable level, it is here
that the crowd will either beentranced or write o the
entire perormance.
As the rst two actors
enter one can almost read
the stress and dedication
that each has put in during
that last couple o months.
The stress is clearly evident
on their aces. Each looks
at the other or quite
conrmation o what the
other is about to do. Having
received what little solace
they could rom the other,
they slowly walk orwardand the show begins.
The collaboration o
each actor is stupendous
to the eyes. The way in
which each choreographed
scene unolds without theslightest hitch. Each line,
each movement, each
pause is perectly placed
creating a symphony
o wonderment or the
audience. Each scene had
the perect combination o
sadness, action, humor, and
suspense. For that hour each
person within the building
could lose themselves in the
stupendous production put
on by seniors Amber Callen
and Tyler Anderson. Yet
rom the audience positionan individual never would
have been able to guess
that this terric production
was done as a senior project.

What do beats, rhythms,and superb music all have in
common? Well, the CanyonRidge High School Bando course. The CRHS bandplayed on October 29, 2012at the CRHS Auditorium orall who wished to see. Theband concert consistedo Robert Stuart MiddleSchools beginning andintermediate bands, CRHSDrum Corps, and CanyonRidges very own band. Theconcert started promptlyat 7 pm with the playing othe Star Spangled Bannerby the RSMS Intermediate
and CRHS bands. Thenthe RSMS beginning bandstarted o by playing 4songs, like Three Blind Miceand a piece rom You ReallyGot Me. Aterwards, CRHSDrum Corps stepped up andplayed a single piece thatincluded a heart poundingrhythm that reverberatedo the walls and throughthe soles o peoples eet.
Once they nished theirpiece, it was on to theRSMS Intermediate Band,who also played 4 separatepieces. Ultimately, it was a
great concert or our utureRiverhawks.
As or our currentRiverhawks, it was a success,especially or their rstconcert o the school year.
They played three pieces,including Korean Rhapsody,song that introducedanother avor o musicto the audience. For theirnal song, they perormedChillers and Thrillers, amintage o suspensesongs such as the ImperialMarch and the theme rom
Jaws. For the nale, theRSMS Intermediate bandcame back on stage or astanding perormance oTequila and the CanyonRidge HS Fight Song, whichthe audience had a chanceto sing and hear some othat Riverhawk spirit. Whenasked what they have lovemost about perormingin concerts, Jacob Webb,
reshman, responded thathe loved the activity, thatits crazy, its hectic, itsawesome. One sophomore,Kris Crozier, plays oboe and
bassoon, the bassoon beingone o the most difcultinstruments to play in theband. He said that it was theexperience o succeedingand that because o histalents with his instruments,he has been able to achievea lot o things. It was certainsuccess or the rst concerto the year, or utureRiverhawks and currentones alike.

Dawn: Part 2 hit theaters on
November 16th, 2012.
Isabella Marie Swan
was just an ordinary girl,
her parents were divorced;
her mom lived in Phoenix,
AZ and her dad hid away
in gloomy Forks, WA. She
had lived in the valley o
the sun or seventeen years
until she suddenly decided
to live in a near constant
cover o clouds and rain.
Little did she know, so did
the Cullens. Twilight was a

Bella Swan met Edward. Anenigmatic and ascinating

know what shes getting
into. Ater Edward saves
her lie, Bella discovers his
secret. Edward is a vampire.
She should stay away rom
him, but Edward and Bella
have allen irrevocably and
unconditionally in love
with each other. However,
their troubles have only just
begun.
In New Moon, TheCullens hold an 18th
birthday party or Bella
Swan. It doesnt get ar
when a paper cut ends the
party in bloodshed and
causes the Cullens to packup and leave Forks behind,
including Bella. Bellas
shattered, hiding away in
silence and screaming or
Edward in the dead o night.
So Bella comes up with a
solution, hanging out with
Jacob Black and his Pack. It
doesnt start out this way,
but with Jakes genetics and
Victoria on the loose, thats

it doesnt last long and soon
Edward is in trouble. The
