| By Caleb Moore The week of Homecoming was “Spirit Week” where high school grades nine through twelve compete all week for the Spirit Stick. The Spirit Stick is the epitome of High School competition. There is a point system estab- lished to determine who wins the Spirit Stick each year. First off, first place winners for the Dress Up days win six points. Second place earn four, third place earns two, while fourth place earns no points.
For the Powder Puff game, first place winners gain ten points to their total score, and second place gains five points. The same scoring was used for the Iron Man Volleyball game. Whoever has the most people in their grade attend the vol- leyball game on Paint the Gym Purple night attains ten points. Second place gains eight points, third place scores six points, and last place obtains four points. Then on Friday, whatever grade wins the relay secures ten points, while second place earns eight points, and third place wins six points. This year the seniors came out on top with a total of 73 points. Congrats, senior class and Wildcats, on a great spirit week. Go Wildcats.

Meet Our New Principal Pictured above a few of the Senior Spirit Stick winners, pictured left to right, back row: Ethan Swenson, Jake Bennett, Mitchell Bumgardner. Front row, left to right: Jill Niehaus, Zoe Murphy, Courtney Kernich and Brianna Henke. By Whitley Pfeiffer Mr. Baumberger, the former junior high principal, has now moved up to serve as the principal in the high school at Mt. Olive. Mr. Baumberger adapts very well and is understanding of not only the students, but everyone in need. Mr. Baumberger stated, “One of my favorite things about being the principal at this school is being around all the students and seeing what the students interests are.” Mr. Baumberger’s father was a minister, and Mr. Baumberger always saw his father helping others and realized he too wanted to help others. Mr. Baumberger got the opportunity to work with a help group and soon became a P.E. teacher and grew from there. He taught P.E. for seven years at Bunker Hill, coached junior high boys basketball, and also served as an administer in Jerseyville for one year. Mr. Baumberger attended college at Lewis and Clark and got his Associate Degree, he got his Bachelor's Degree at SIUE and his Master’s Degree at UIS. This being his third year in this school district, Mr. Baumberger says he likes being a principal here because he gets the “ability to make a change in the school and students for the better...Some days are better than others, it can be stressful.” Throughout the school year Mr. Baumberger says he wants to, “Build students school spirit, every student to be included and every student to be accepted.” Mr. Baumberger also says the most challenging obstacles for being the school principal are, “Making sure the students stay up to par and being able to provide the best education for the students.” Being a new principal can be difficult, but we all have faith in Mr. Baumberger to guide us on the right path. Mr. Baumberger, we welcome you to the high school and we hope you have a great year. Mr. Winsel’s Class Trip By Whitley Pfeiffer On September 9, 2016, Mr. Winsel took his junior and se- nior shop classes to the Coffeen Power Plant. Mr. Winsel decided to take the class on this trip be- cause the class was talking about energy and the way it works. Mr. Winsel feels the students learned a lot. He stated, “The students learned what a complicated and lengthy process it is to make electricity.” Although this is the first year Mr. Winsel has ever taken his class on this trip, he stated, “I hope to go on the trip every year, but next time, I would like to go during the winter because it was very hot.”
Cartoon Conspiracies By Maddie Bollman Blink-182 Concert By Maddie Bollman On September 11, 2016, the punk rock band Blink-182 preformed at the Hollywood Casino Amphitheatre in Maryland Heights, MO with opening acts of The All American Rejects, A Day To Remem- ber and special guest DJ Spider. The show started at seven, but DJ spider performed at six as fans found their seats. The concert was a packed house and all the fans stood during the performances, dancing and singing along with the performers. Sitting at the concert before it started, I happened to watch the fans as they found their seats and it was like a throwback to the 1990’s grunge phase, choker necklaces, top knot bun hair styles, off the shoulder or high neck shirts, and flannel shirts tied around their waists. It was like stepping into a time machine to the nineties. The All American Rejects performed first at seven starting with their song “Dirty Little Secret,” the crowd loved it and sang along and jumped around. The lead singer, Tyson Ritter, told the fans after the first song that it was going to be like stepping back in time the whole night, playing songs from both the 1990’s and the early 2000’s. The setlist for the performance was only seven songs to fill an hour space, not too many songs for an hour, but they made up for it by telling jokes about the crowd and talking about a few technical issues that happened. During one of the songs, “It Ends Tonight,” the main microphone went out and the crowd sang the whole song even when the microphone was fixed or he found a working one. A Day To Remember performed next and their opening song was called “The Downfall of Us All,” and that electrified the fans. Around my area of sitting, people were headbanging, jumping all
Cartoons are meant to be enjoyed by younger audiences for entertainment, but do they have a secret twist behind them? For the next nine issues I will be exploring the hidden meanings behind some of the most beloved childhood cartoons such as, SpongeBob SquarePants, Pokemon, Rugrats, and many more. This week, I will be talking about SpongeBob SquarePants. Have you ever questioned why the town is called Bikini Bottom, or how all the characters happen to be inanimate objects that have human characteristics, such as a sponge? The theory behind this is that Bikini Bottom is an actual place, but it’s not called Bikini Bottom, it is called Bikini Atoll. Bikini Atoll is a place in the Marshall Islands where nuclear bomb testing has taken place. Some say that the radioactivity the creatures were exposed to are what brought them to life. Like a sponge, starfish, and squid that all have human -like characteristics. Another observation made when watch- ing SpongeBob SquarePants is that every time there is an explosion it is in the shape of a mushroom cloud, very similar to how the explosions from the nuclear bombs dropped in Bikini Atoll looked like. Another theory about SpongeBob SquarePants is that all the characters are the seven deadly sins, wrath, sloth, envy, gluttony, greed, pride, and lust. All seven sins connect well with seven well known characters in the show. Starting with the main character SpongeBob, he is said to be lust, but why lust? Lusts actual definition is “excessive love for others,” and SpongeBob shows his love for others all the time throughout the show. Moving on to his best friend Patrick Star. He is seen as sloth. Patrick is said to represent sloth because of his laziness and unwillingness to act; he is almost always portrayed as sleeping under his rock. Wrath is symbolized by Squidward because of his hatred towards everything, and Mr. Krabs symbolized greed because he only cares about his money. Sandy Cheeks is said to portray pride because of how she shows her love for Texas, and Plankton is said to be envy because of how unsucessful the Chum Bucket is compared to the Krusty Krab. The last deadly sin is gluttony and it is said to be symbolized by Gary the snail. Gary is gluttony because of how often SpongeBob says he needs to feed him. After introducing these conspiracies, do you view SpongeBob SquarePants or any of the characters any differently, or can you see the connections? Some things are crazy to think about when you have not thought about them before.
On stage, there were screens that showed different animations to go with each song, and down near the stage, the pit balls and even toilet paper was thrown around. A Day To Remember played a setlist of 11 songs to fill a one hour window, and the performance really amped up the crowed for Blink-182. After a ten minute intermission, Blink-182 finally made their appearance on stage. Their opening song was “Feeling This” and then the famous “What’s My Age Again?” After the two songs, the lead, Mark Hoppus, mentioned that St. Louis was a much better looking crowd than Indianapolis, IN, where they played the night before. Going on jokingly about the Arch and the ol’ Mississippi River, because what else is there really to see in St. Louis? Blink-182 played a series of 24 songs, four of them being en- core songs to end the night, six of the songs were from their new album California that was released on July 1, 2016, and 18 songs that were from older albums released in the 1990’s and the early 2000’s. The night was explosive from the fans being ecstatic from the previous performances and carrying on the enthusiasm to when Blink-182 came out on stage. Secret Starbucks Menu By Caleb Moore On social media I have seen people order some Starbucks drinks that aren’t on the menu. There are also websites that have Starbucks secret drink recipes. Here are a few that caught my attention. I’m a huge Harry Potter fan. I’ve watched all of the movies, in fact. When I saw a Butterbeer Frappuccino recipe, I knew that I was going to get it the next time I went to Starbucks. All you have to do is ask for a Creme Frappuccino for the base (make sure you order whole milk instead of skim milk), then ask for three pumps of caramel syrup and three pumps of toffee nut syrup. To complete the drink, ask for a caramel drizzle on top. Now this is a drink worth trying. Recently, I have been getting into the Pokémon Go groove, capturing all sorts of Pokémon. Then I saw a Starbucks drink inspired by Pokémon. If you want one as much as I do, then ask for the bottom half of the cup to be Vanilla Frappuccino and the top half to be Strawberry and Creme Frappuccino. Then, ask for strawberry whipped cream to replicate a Pokéball. I’m definitely getting this drink next time I go to Starbucks, and maybe getting this drink will help me catch a Pikachu! You’ve seen those Instagram Starbucks Pink Drinks floating around the Internet, making you wish you had one. Well, next time you visit Starbucks, order a Strawberry Acai Refresher, made with Coconut Milk instead of water, then add scoops of strawberries, blackberries, or both. Now you can be the next Instagram famous of your friends!
Instagram recently released a new update that allows users to take a picture or video that only shows for 24 hours, and then disappears, replicating Snapchat’s “Story” feature, that does the same thing. The two apps’ stories are very similar, from swiping up to reply, to seeing who saw your post. Both apps allow you to draw on your post and save the photos, even after you post them. Although the two are comparable, there are also a few differences between the two. Instagram allows you to pause the story and even go back to see previous slides. Another difference is that Snapchat allows you to see who screenshotted your feed, but Instagram left that element out. Many people accuse Insta- gram of copying Snapchat, but Kevin Systrom, the CEO of Instagram, says that, “This isn’t about who invented something. This is about format, and how you take it to a network and put your own spin on it.” and the highest part of the concert was when Beyoncé sang the songs “One Plus One,” “All Night,” and “Survivor,” but Jill wanted to hear her sing the song “Sandcastle” because it means a lot to her. The concert lasted three and a half hours, but according to Jill, it could have been longer. She had high expectations for her, but Beyoncé lived up to them. After the concert ended, Jill said that she felt sad because she wanted to go back and see it again, and if Jill had met Beyoncé after the concert, she would have told her how much her music means and inspires her. She would probably even ask to be her backup dancer. Suicide Squad Movie Review By Caleb Moore On August 5, a new DC cinema feature, called Suicide Squad, had its debut. This film is inspired by the comic books that included Task Force X, a covert band of villains on death row fronted by the US government, lead by the infamous Amanda Waller. While the comic books included characters like Bronze Tiger, Blockbuster, and Nightshade, the movie kept to some original characters including Deadshot and Boomerang. The most beloved character from the movie is the notorious Harley Quinn. While Harley wasn’t a original character, she did join the publicized New 52 Suicide Squad in 2011.
One of the most criticized components of the film was that there weren’t many scenes involving the Joker.Although there were scenes of Harley Quinn and the Joker’s past, the movie barely scratched the surface of the villainous relationship. Margot Robbie, the face behind the all so flagrant Harley Quinn, said in an interview with the Collider, “...there’s just so many people to please, and you can’t ever really make everyone happy.” While most of the movie was criticized for lacking components, I personally recommend the movie to any DC comic fan. Though it did jump around the plot a lot, the film did have great lighting, cinematography, and emotion. It was a five star movie in my book.

By Mitchell Bumgardner Cheerleading season is off to a great start so far. I got the chance to interview three of the girls and talk about their thoughts. Brooklynne O’Neal is a junior at MOHS and has been cheering for about five years. She likes that she is so close with her team- mates, but she doesn’t like waiting for competition season to start. I asked her if she considers cheer a sport and she said, “Yes, because we compete against other teams. Gymnastics is considered a sport and that’s included in cheer.” Brook thinks that good attitudes will determine the team's success this year. In the offseason, she goes to tumbling classes to stay ready for the competitions. Brook does not plan to cheer in college because, “The college that I am wanting to be accepted to doesn’t have a competing squad.” Heaven Schehl is an up and coming star amongst cheerlead- ers. She is a freshman and has been cheering for four years. She enjoys tumbling and stunting at practice, but doesn’t like it when the team doesn’t get along. Heaven considers cheerleading a sport as well because, “You have to work out and practice like any other sport.” She believes that in order for their team to be successful, they need to get along and work together. Heaven works out in the offseason, and she does plan to take her talents to college whenever that time comes. Kaleigh Ziglar is the last cheerleader I had the pleasure of inter- viewing. She’s a sophomore and has been cheering for five years now. “One of the things I like most about cheer is how close you get to your team during each season. I dislike that cheer is over- looked by many people,” she stated. Kaleigh thinks that negative attitudes tear their team down, and positive attitudes will help them rise together. In her eyes cheer is considered a sport because, “It requires just as much athletic ability and time as any other sport.” After the season is over she enjoys working out at the local gym, tumbling, and stretching at home to stay in shape. Kaleigh also plans to cheer in college. I asked all of the girls what advice they’d give to someone new who wanted to try out for the team. They all believe that cheer re- quires more responsibility, hard work, and time than most people think, but if you’re confident and committed anything is possible. Good luck to all the cheerleaders this year! Cheering on the Cats By Mitchell Bumgardner I had the pleasure of interviewing the MOHS cheerleading coach, Allison Buzick. I asked her some questions about herself and how the season is going so far. Allison has coached the Wildcats for five years now, and has coached at the Midwest Royals gym in Litchfield for various tumbling classes as well. The cheer team performed at a St. Louis Cardinals game over the summer just before the start of school. Football season has started off and they will be transitioning into basketball/competition season shortly. Allison also believes that they’re ahead of last years team’s skill level. The biggest goal this year for her and her team is to qualify for the ICCA Champion- ships. They will compete in at least six ICCA competitions, and in the IHSA sectional where they will be competing to go to state. In Allison’s eyes the team’s strengths are stunting and they have clean, tight motions. They are working very hard on improving their jumps and tumbling as well. In the offseason Allison has the team take tumbling classes as well as work out to keep up their strength and endurance. I asked her if she considers cheerleading a sport and she said, “I do consider cheer a sport. Gymnastics is a sport and that’s only one of the many elements which we do in cheer.” Allison doesn’t have a set number of years that she plans to continue coaching. She stated, “I have a lot of people who ask if I will just see my daughter through, which would be five more seasons, and put me at 10 years. I can’t say that will be my end as the MOHS cheer coach though. I think I will exceed her years here at Mt. Olive. After all, I’ll still have one in school here, and I started this before I knew my daughter would even cheer.” I think Coach Buzick will be around for years to come. I know she’s definitely made an impact on her athletes. Good luck with the rest of the season, Coach! Ties to Kelsey Card By Darrian Roberts We have a connection with the qualifying Olympian Kelsey Card.Agraduate from Carlinville named Hannah Sievers wrote us saying she was not surprised at all that Kelsey qualified for the 2016 US Team. While a student at Mt. Olive, Hannah has thrown shot put and discus against Kelsey since Jr. High even though Kelsey was a year older than her. Kelsey Card is a back-to- back State Champion in both events in Jr. High and a four time State Champion in both of her throwing events in High School. much a given that she would compete at the collegiate level and be successful, it was up to her to decide where she wanted to continue.” Hopefully we will see Kelsey Card back for the 2020 games in Tokyo. Pictured above: MOHS Golfer, Jeremy Bruch. Golf By Darrian Roberts Jeremy Bruch is Mount Olive High School’s only golf athlete this year. Being a freshman this is his first year of high school golf, but he has been playing golf for about four years. Jeremy doesn’t really mind being the only person on the golf team this year. He stated,“being the only golf player is nice because you get more individual time with the coach at practices and get to stay at your own speed without rush- ing or waiting for other people.” His practices are usually held after school. Even when they’re not mandatory, he is still trying to improve on his skills at home or at the golf course. He says he is very dedicated and never gets nervous when he’s up against other people because he is very comfortable about what he is doing.
Next year Jeremy plans on playing golf again but hopes other people go out for it. Good luck, Jeremy; we hope you have a great season.
this year. Coach Eggering has coached at Pottsville, Collinsville, and Triad High school before venturing to Mt. Olive. He has been coaching for three years now, and has no intentions of stopping until he physically cannot continue. I asked him for his thoughts on the difficulty of coaching a new team and he said, “Coaching in general is always hard. I’m always excited to start something new. I believe that my players will always do their best and succeed.” As a member of the team, I can assure him that we will. In the offseason, he plans to have the team do weight training, and cardio sessions to stay in pristine condition for game days. Coach Eggering has three goals for the team: No major injuries, taking extra bases, and always giving 100%. Coaching any team is a challenge, and it’s not for everyone. You have to have certain qualities to be successful. Coach Eggering believes he has what it takes--patience, faith, and willpower. “You need a lot of patience, especially when things don’t go your way. You have to have faith in your team during difficult situations. You have to be willing to fight for your team.” Those words will go a long way. Good luck this year, Coach!
wanted to coach. Coach Keller is super excited about this year's season. She stated, “Having every starter back from last year’s team that ended the season with a record of 21-7. The drive these girls have to succeed makes this such an exciting season. We are hoping to improve last year's record and push ourselves to new heights.” The hardest team Mt. Olive has faced so far is Springfield Lutheran. She stated, “They always have a very strong volleyball team with many girls who play volleyball all year long.” Keller’s goal as a coach is to have her girls improve on their skills, work hard, learn how to work with their teammates and have fun. She wants them to strive for excellence and push themselves to new limits. Good luck, Lady Wildcats with the rest of the season.
The game to watch on October 12 is the first of five games this year between the rivals the St. Louis Blues and the Chicago Blackhawks. Back in April, the Blackhawks fell Pictured above: Amber Mix, new student at MOHS. Thriller movies have had a rise in popularity over the years. Thrillers are meant to give you suspense and make you think throughout the movie. They are sometimes filled with jump scares and parts where you would not have expected anything to happen. One movie that is a must see is the thriller Don’t Breathe. Don’t Breathe was written by Fede Alvarez and Rodo Sayagues and directed by Fede Alvarez. The film is 1 hour and 28 minutes, rated R (17+), and was released to theaters on August 26, 2016, and has been out for two weeks. The movie is about three thieves, Rocky, Money, and Alex, who are planning a big robbery of an elderly blind war veteran’s home. They are looking for money that the elderly man had received as a settlement after his only daughter was killed in an accident and the offender was found innocent. The robbers discover a door with a large lock on it, so they
Players to watch in the games are forwards Vladimir Tarasenko 91 of the St. Louis Blues, and Patrick Kane 88 of the Chicago Blackhawks. Tarasenko had 40 goals and 34 assists in the regular season of 2015-16 and nine goals and six assists in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Kane had 46 goals and 60 assists in the regular season and one goal and six assists in the Stanley Cup playoffs. Other players to watch are the goaltenders, 34 Jake Allen of the St. Louis Blues and 50 Corey Crawford of the Chicago Blackhawks. Allen started 44 games for the Blues this year, with 26 wins and 15 losses, faced 1,260 shots, had a goals against average of 2.35, and a save percentage of .920 for the season of 2015-16. Crawford started 58 games for the Blackhawks this year, with 35 wins and 18 losses, faced 1,718 shots, had a goals against average of 2.35, and a save percentage of .924 for the season. Both teams have key players to watch from players who can make the goals, to players who can stop the goal. The outcome of the game will be determined by which team wants to play the hardest.
Amber Mix, a former student at Litchfield High School, has moved to Mt. Olive and is a sophomore at Mt. Olive High School. Although she is not involved in any sports, Amber stated, “I like this school because the people are more close knit here than at my old school.” Amber also stated, “I mostly like everything at this school rather than at my old school.” Her plans for the future con- sist of, first, graduating from high school and then going to college. Amber is unsure of what college she wants to go to or what she wants to do yet, but she wants to focus on getting good grades and understanding her school work. Amber stated, “My favorite class is probably Algebra II because I am good at that subject,” and she says her least favorite class would be art because it was the only class available for her to fit into her new schedule. Amber, we all welcome you to Mt. Olive High School and hope you have a great year.
with a gun. Alex chickens out and leaves the house but after hearing secondary gunshots, goes back to the house and tries to find the others. After discovering one of them is dead, he finds Money hiding in a closet. She warns him to stay quiet because the elderly man had killed Rocky, and was boarding up the rest of the house so nobody can enter or leave. As Alex and Money are trapped in the house they are trying to find a way out of the house, but the house is like a fun house with locks on the doors with no keys and creaky floorboards, and also them trying to not run into the elderly man, who now has a gun. While trying to escape, they discover a secret that the old man had been hiding from the world. You will have to visit a local theater to discover what the secret is and if Alex and Money escape the house. The movie is a must see for horror and thriller movie fans. It leaves you at suspenseful moments, has things jumping out for a good jump scare, and has parts that leave you questioning why or how. I myself am a huge horror movie fanatic and in my books the movie receives 5 out of 5 stars. I strongly urge you to spend the eight to ten dollars to see this movie. New Man in Town By Paige Holland Let me introduce you to our new Chief of Police, Matt Spaller. Chief Spaller recently joined Mt. Olive’s police department, but he is originally from Cleveland, Ohio. He has been a policeman for 17 years in communities and 3 years in military police. Chief Spaller says even after 17 years of serving as a policeman, he still enjoys every day of it. There are a lot of challenges but that won’t stop him enjoying his job. Chief Spaller was a policeman in Maryville for 16 years and served 6 months as Chief of Worden before Mt. Olive’s position opened. Chief Spaller was asked what made him join Mt.Olive’s PD, and his response was, “I have lived here 15 years, met my wife and moved here. It was a goal of mine to end up a Chief of Police in Mt. Olive for the end of my career. I enjoy and love it here.” Chief Spaller was asked what he liked about Mt. Olive. He stated, “ Mt. Olive is a quintessential small town America; it has its own personality and charm.” It’s nice to see a Chief of Police who has some experience and is excited to be working in Mt.Olive. Welcome, Chief Spaller.
The reason that this system is so perfect is that there is no bias. This wheel honestly does not care if you have worked forty hours a week or if you have been lying around the house for the last month ever since you were fired from that car dealership for trying to sell your boss’s car for half off. If you need a system to divvy up your chores so badly that you are actually considering doing this, then I pity your relationship and I hope that your spouse is secretly funneling half of your 401k into a secret bank account so he/she can flee to Tahiti the next time you complain about doing the laundry. This whole essay has just been leading up to the actual solution to everyone’s problem, not only with housework, but with their relationships altogether. Instead of looking for some magical quick fix to a problem, sit down with your partner and communicate with them. Maybe you hate sweeping and they hate doing the laundry; just switch jobs it's not a huge deal. Even if you both hate doing housework at least you have something in common and something that the two of you can complain about later. See, there’s a positive to housework right there-- it is a conversation starter. All you have to do to end the terrible tyranny of housework is communicate with your partner and then doing chores won’t be such a chore.
Katlin Goins, a former Mt. Olive High School student, attended the Homecoming dance on Friday, September 16. Katlin said, “This homecoming dance did not compare to other dances because it was a glo dance and it had a different kind of theme than the past dances.” She also said, “I did enjoy the dance because I got to dance with my girls.” Katlin stated, “My favorite part about the homecoming dance was that it was a glo dance; it made the dance more interesting. But my least favorite part was the number of people who showed up. Although few people showed up, I still had a great time at the dance.” Katlin also stated, “Even though it was very muddy outside, the end of the football game excited me and got me pumped for the dance because this was the first time our team had won a homecoming football game since I have been in high school.” Congrats to the Cats on a win at the game. Maybe Student Council can make some changes in the dance next year so it is better attended, but until then, good-bye homecoming until next year. Yüklə 0,98 Mb. Dostları ilə paylaş:
