Isaiah L I feel like the hottest game is Black-Ops 2. I really like the game because of its multiple set up. One of the things I don’t like is that there is a lot of fire and it can kill you. The video has a lot of cool graphics and detail in the campaign. I feel like Black-ops 2 is the best Call of Duty, it is the best one they have made so far I would rate it a 4 star game.

Music review

I think my most favorite band of all time would be Slipknot. Corey Taylor, their lead singer, really inspired me to keep on going when I felt down. His singing brought me up. I didn’t think I was going to make it through the age of 11, but I did. His singing is really good and if you get the chance to listen to Slipknot I hope you enjoy it. They sing heavy metal and an album I recommend is All Hope is Gone.

Music Review This is about rap and hip-hop This is my opinion on what I think is best to listen to. I really suggest that if you don’t like sexual talk, gang talk, bad language, or inappropriate comments to not listen to this kind of music. I generally like listening to this kind of music. Here are a couple of albums that I know that I would usually listen to. (Graduation)- Why I like this album is because he is real, he talks about his life and the way it is. Because usually when people sing rap or rock their songs are not about their life. (Cruel)- Is a really good album. I like this because you can tell Kayne West really put his whole life story. Not only that he expressed/put his emotions into it.

I played the new game Black Ops 2 and it is my favorite game. Because you can play 4 players on zombies and you can die in the lava and there is some much better graphics than the first one. In Black Ops 2 you can get new guns and you can be a different person. You can also hit the zombies with your gun. You can also get a ray gun, that looks like a blow dryer. It is a cool game and it is my favorite game too.

Music Review; Bring Me the Horizon Bring Me the Horizon is British metal-core band from Sheffield, Yorkshire. The band formed in 2004 and consists of 5 band members. Oliver Sykes; lead vocalist, lead guitarist; Lee Malia, rhythm guitarist; Jona Weinhofen, Bassist; Matt Kean, and drummer; Matt Nicholls. The band is currently signed to both RCA and Epitaph Records. I personally love this band. I love how they are different from others and some of their lyrics actually mean something other than Money, Sex, and Drugs. For instance; There is a Hell, Believe Me I've Seen It. There Is a Heaven, Let's Keep It a Secret. By; Riley

By Baylee ‘It has become an essential even to everyday living. We have cell phones, televisions, tablets, radios, etc. Cell phones are much more advanced than they were before. For example, cell phones used to have no camera, no apps or games; they were literally as big as a brick. Cell phones now days have cameras as great as 8 megapixel, speaker phone, text, unlimited calling, internet, three ways calling, you can hold the world in the palm of your hand on a small device. The picture shown here is a picture of a Droid Razor, the world’s thinnest phone yet. I rate it a 10 on a scale from one to 5. The phone is on the market for original pricing at around $675 without a contract, and with a contract only about $300. You can even find really good phone protective cases so your phone won’t break or crack when you drop it. It is very important to get one because if you drop your phone or you misplace it, it will be easy for you to identify. If you need a good phone case they are a lot of places you can look!’

Goodbye Goodbye A.R.T.E.C I will sincerely miss you! I have learned a lot since I have been here. Controlling my anger, dealing with bad situations, and even accepting first prompts. I used to never be able to accept the answer no, but now I can a lot better than I used to be able to. I have learned to love my peers and staff and I don’t think I would have been successful without some of them! I will be going to Taylorsville High School and take The Youth In Custody class. I want to graduate and get a job J. Like I said A.R.T.E.C GOODBYE**__!__** **__-Anthony__**

Video games..



The best video game I have ever played was Saints Row the Third. Moreover, the reason that I like the game so much is because it is like Grand Theft. You can make your own people and the game has a good story. I like it because it has good graphics and the game is fun. If you like video games then you will like this game. By: Dyqwhon

Tweak was a great book. Tweak is about a kid who is a drug addict and is doing good. Then when he moves out to the city with $3000 he gets addicted to hardcore drugs. His life was all about drugs and his recovery. It is a really great book for the appropriate age. Tweak is a really good example of my life. Trying to overcome my addiction, finding a recovery plan, and how it can fail, and then work out the way you want it to. By;Kaine

__Music: __ __Schoolboy q __ A good song by him is “ __BLESSED __”. He is a very famous artist and very deep in the lyrics. If you haven’t heard of him I would certainly check him out, my favorite is “ __HANDS ON THE WHEEL” ____<span style="color: #404040; font-family: 'Agency FB','sans-serif'; font-size: 24px;"> and ____<span style="color: #404040; font-family: 'Agency FB','sans-serif'; font-size: 29px;">“BLESSED __<span style="color: #404040; font-family: 'Agency FB','sans-serif'; font-size: 29px;">.” <span style="color: #404040; display: block; font-family: 'agency fb',sans-serif; font-size: 29px; text-align: right;">And he also does songs with “__ASAP ROCKY__”.

Upcoming holiday: The upcoming holiday is Christmas. The time of Christ! This is a time for giving and spending time with our families. Usually my family would stay up Christmas Eve night until 12 p.m. then when the clock hit 12 we would all open our presents and spend the rest of the night together. But this year I will be sitting in ARTEC, hopefully I learn my lesson. By: ‘Eliki

Kurt Vonnegut’s ‘Slaughterhouse Five’ Slaughterhouse Five, though it does not say so directly, is about the story of a man who suffers from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The main character, Billy Pilgrim, was in the heart of World War II and the fire-bombing of Dresden. In the story, Billy suffers flashbacks that he refers to as ‘time travelling’. He believes that he has become unstuck in time and thus slips forward and back to various points in his life. Due to the stress, he also suffers from delusions of being abducted by an Alien race known as the Tralfamadorians. The Tralfamadorians are described as small green creatures, about three feet tall with bodies that resemble a downward faced plunger that raises up connecting to a hand for a head with a single eye in the palm. The Tralfamadorians are said to be a race that sees in four dimensions and pity humans for only being able to see in three. The fourth dimension that they see is time. Rather than seeing time as a series of events, they see time as a whole and therefore see everything that ever has or will happen at once. They see everything as forever and always. Because of this, they do not mourn the deaths of anyone being as they are technically not dead from their perspective. They see them as alive as they ever were. Billy Pilgrim believes that he has been abducted by these creatures and taken back to their home planet and placed in a form of zoo where he is placed naked on display accompanied by a former porn star, Montana Wildhack. However, he says that he was taken through a time warp so that when he was returned, he had only been gone for a manner of microseconds. He believes that because of this abduction and the time warp, he has become unstuck in time. This is his psychological rationalization for his flash backs. Though much of this book is fictional, much of it is also true. The author, Kurt Vonnegut, himself experienced much of what he wrote in the book. This novel ends up being a combination of fictional novella, and autobiography. The book overall is incredibly entertaining and full of hidden meaning. This book is an excellent read for anyone seeking to further understand PTSD. - Ryan V. Jared’s movie review 12/13/12

BIG MAMAS HOUSE!

I love this movie because of how funny it is. I think this was back in VHS before it was on DVD, so it’s kind of old. I also remember the times I would watch it and eat popcorn and laugh hysterically. Well, you can send me a message if you like it or not. Personally my favorite part is when he kicks some major butt. Isn't it about a cop dressing up as a fat old lady to protect the woman from her ex boy friend. I only have to write five sentences so I kind of went over board otherwise see you later. by Jared I have not been to the Humane Society in an awhile. I clean kennels and give dogs baths. And I do dishes and clean drains and groom dogs. I want to go back to see staff and see the dogs and take care of the dogs. And I like to take care of the rabbits and guinea pigs. By Taren 4th of July <span style="color: red; font-family: 'Cooper Black','serif'; font-size: 19px;">July is my favorite time of year. The reason why I like the 4th of July is because of the huge fireworks that get lit off. I like the fireworks that make loud noises and have different colors that is what makes the fireworks cool. <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Cooper Black','serif'; font-size: 19px;">Another reason why I like the 4th of July is because me and my family get along well, and we do things together like barbeque, play foot ball, and light off fireworks together. What I dislike about 4th of July is the smoke from the fireworks, and the fires that are caused. <span style="color: black; display: block; font-family: 'cooper black','serif'; font-size: 19px; text-align: right;">By: Joseph
