Cute N' Cozy

It's finally time get cute and cozy
with fall now upon us. While summer was perfect for short-shorts,
breezy dresses, and cute bandeau
tops, they just won’t cut it for the
frosty mornings we must endure
this season.
“We need a revolution every 200
years, because all governments become stale and corrupt after 200
years.” When Benjamin Franklin
made this controversial prophecy in
the late 1700s, a two-hundred-yearold US Government was a difficult
thing for most to imagine. However, this nation’s Founding Fathers
seemed to take heed of his words,
and attempted to create a government that could defy such a limit.
Recent events have shown that their
visionary system is being tested
similar to a few previous times in
our history.
To keep warm, while still being
fashionable (a great challenge for us
all), I suggest going for the layered
look. In order to create the perfect

These days, average Halloween decorations do not get too

they tend to be cloth ghosts that we
have seen, like, seventeen times already, hanging from a dozen other
people’s trees.
In this story, the decoration
hanging from the tree was not a
cloth ghost, or cloth, or a ghost. It
was a corpse. A woman had hung
herself from her tree and no one
noticed that her decoration was not
supposed to be there. It took a day
before anyone realized that the decoration hanging from the tree was
a real person. This event did occur
a few days before Halloween, and

Smarthphone
By a smart phone lover
Introduction
Every now and then, tragedy
strikes. The cell phone that is so
precious to citizens of the modern world suddenly dies, perhaps
drowning after taking an unexpected leap into a pond or riding along
for a surprise push into a pool, or
perhaps suffering death by bludgeoning when that case guaranteed
to protect the delicate device inside
from any and all damage fails in its
duty.
For those whose devices
have expired, options are limited.
While some have insurance for the
device that grants them another
technological life like in some 80’s
arcade game, many others rely solely on the provided manufacturer
warranty that expires, conveniently,
right when most devices begin to
fail: after a year.
Many people would say
that, upon breaking their phone,
they’ll just get one of those free
phones that carriers offer. They
are perhaps not the best devices,
but hey, it’s free! The problem with
this theory is that these devices
are not, in fact, free. Cell phone
carriers subsidize the price of cell
phones by taking a portion of each
month’s bill payments to pay off the
enormous cost of the unsubsidized
device. Most smartphones today re-

tail, without a contract, for between
$500 and $750 dollars; even those
free phones that looked so appealing actually cost, on average, close
to $300. This means that, when an
individual is not eligible for a new
contract and therefore a new subsidized price, has no warranty, and
no phone, options begin to look
grim.
Luckily, for these people,
there is hope.
Lumia 520
Retailing for $100 off
contract, the Nokia Lumia 520 is
not by any means a flagship smartphone. It lacks many of the amenities that smartphone users today
have become accustomed to, like
a flash or a front facing camera.
However, it more than makes up
for these drawbacks with its incredible performance, solid build quality and miniscule price. The device
runs Windows Phone 8, which
may not be as familiar a name as
Android or iOS (the system behind
the well loved iPhone), but which
deserves much more attention than
it has received.
Hardware
While the device seems
small at first, its screen is a very
reasonable 4 inches, the same as
the newest iPhone 5 and 5S. Being
a Nokia phone, the device is very
solidly built and has a reassuring
density and solidity in the hand.
Although the materials used in
its construction are not of as high
of quality as some more expenRed and yellow food coloring

sive devices, the overall feel of the
phone is very impressive, especially
considering its price. The quality of
the device’s components even carries over to its audio output: sound
played through headphones on the
Lumia 520 was clearer and had a
better soundstage than on many
competing devices, including an
iPhone 5S.
Another feature of the
phone is a two-stage camera button, which allows the user to wield
the 5-megapixel camera the phone
possesses with maximum effectiveness. A light touch will focus
the image without requiring any
awkward onscreen tapping that
jolts the phone and disrupts the
shot, while pressing down another
pressure level takes a shot. Images
are captured quickly, allowing blurfree photos of moving objects and
changing scenes. A set of “Lenses”
allows the user to apply filters and
take GIF-like images using only
their phone, and can produce some
impressive results.
Software and Battery Life
With the hardware of the
device so nice, the functionality of
the phone’s software sits as its only
possible downside. While its weak
processor and 512 megabytes of
RAM suggest slowdown and lag,
Windows Phone 8 is so perfectly
optimized for the lower powered
hardware it runs on that every
animation in the operating system
is buttery smooth, apps launch
without a pause, and the camera
app opens in less than a second.
The smoothness of the device is entirely competitive with devices like
the iPhone 5S and outclasses nearly
every Android flagship. This kind
of weaker hardware also allows for
incredible battery life, as no power
is being wasted on a quad-core
processor or a 5 inch screen. The
520 has no trouble lasting through
an entire day of heavy usage, and
indeed had 40% battery left when
it was plugged in at 10:00 at night
after 16 hours off the charge in our
battery testing.
This is not to say that
Windows Phone 8 is not without
its downsides. Some key applications like Instagram are missing
from the OS entirely, but for every
missing app there is a third party
replacement that works nearly as
well, negating many of the missing
features. Although the operating
system does take some getting used
to, it is fast, lean and efficient when
one gets used to it. Another benefit
is that no one else will know how
to use it, meaning friends will no
longer be able to take your phone
and change the language to Arabic.
Wrap-Up
The Lumia 520 does astoundingly well for a device running only $100 off contract. Its
combination of solid hardware, a
decent screen and camera, dedicated camera button, blazing fast software and killer battery life make
it an appealing device even when
competing with devices 6 times its
price; at $100, it is a ridiculously
good deal. We wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone scrambling
for a phone after suffering a tragedy
with their old one, those looking
for a device to use iPod style, or
even those who don’t want to sign
on to a two year contract with a
$400 early termination fee. Why
bother with an iPhone when the
Lumia 520 does the job even better
for a fraction of the cost?

A Week of
Spirit and
Tradition
By Blake Jamar
When we think about October 14th
through the 18th at Analy High
School, we’re reminded of colorful banners, impressive costumes,
and a surprisingly realistic PacMan game on the senior staircase.
Yes, of course, it was the fall spirit
week. Spirit week is held annually to excite Analy students for
the Apple Game, the yearly football showdown against El Molino,
which never fails to generate lots
of excitement. I talked to Analy
senior Molly Foster, who said,
“Spirit week definitely has to be one
of my favorite times of the school
year. It has lots of fun theme days
for everyone!” Right she is, because
this year we had five whole days for
people to show their spirit.
On Monday, students came decked
out in El Molino nerd gear, sporting pocket protectors and taped up
glasses with red and black as far as
the eye could see. Tuesday was support your cause day. Popular causes
included breast cancer awareness, save the oceans, and dance.
Wednesday was Decades Day.
Each class was assigned a decade
to represent, with freshmen getting
the 1920’s, sophomores the 1950’s,
juniors the 1960’s, and seniors the
1980’s. While not everyone dressed
up, it was clear to see that every
class had their share of spirit.

College
Simplified
By Madeline Camilleri
As October is coming to an
end and November is approaching, most of us are preparing to
pull down our Halloween decorations from the attic and are making
plans for the upcoming autumn
festivities. While this is true, to
most seniors, these two months are
characterized by the college application process that stands to fill
up every spare moment. Although
college applications are usually only
a senior designated activity, the
preparation for those college applications is an activity all grade levels
can participate in. This message
is driven home by the College and
Career Center here at Analy, which
strives to introduce students to the
college process through college
visits, counseling, and its website,
which provides information from
scholarships to tips on writing a
college admissions essay.
Ms. Mansfield is the brains
behind the College and Career
Center, and diligently works to
connect students to the endless
possibilities available to them after
high school. Despite being here at
Analy for only three years she has
made a big impact on the school.
Before her time here, she has been
a career counselor for various other
colleges. Among these colleges is
UCSB, where she worked in admissions counseling. Currently, she
reads application for UC Davis.
Her qualifications include a Master’s Degree in College Counseling
and the years of experience working with students and colleges. Students are highly encouraged to sign
up to meet with her in the front
office, where she can answer questions, help with career exploration,
and read personal statements.
Because of her experience in the
college admissions community, she
has done a tremendous job in connecting students to various colleges
and simplifying the process. This
year alone there were twenty six
college campus visits to Analy. A
few popular names on the list include USC, UCSC, and University
of Colorado Boulder, California
College of the Arts, Boston College,
University of New York, University
of Oregon, Puget Sound, and University of Washington. As can be
gathered from the list, Ms. Mans-
Page 5
field works to bring a wide range
of schools to Analy from private
to public and state universities all
across the country. These presentations are meant to be taken advantage of by the whole student body,
not only the juniors and seniors. It
is never too late to start planning
for the future.
Perhaps the biggest turnout
for the college visits this year was
the presentation given by Humboldt in October, where more than
one hundred students attended.
CSU Humboldt is located in none
other than Humboldt in Northern
California. Similar to Sebastopol,
the university is recognized for its
environmentally friendly vibe and
boasts outstanding programs in
natural resources and sciences.
While the college campus visits are
a big role of the College and Career
Center, the website is an equally
important part. This essential tool
can be found on the Analy web
page under the counseling tab.
Here, students will find numerous links to available scholarships,
upcoming college events at Analy,
information about internships, financial aid, up and coming careers
in California, and personal state-

ment tips.
As life continues to become more
complicated, students need to utilize all the resources around them,
so as to have a chance in simplifying the process. All too many
times, have high school students
sacrificed a night’s worth of sleep
worrying about the future. According to Ms. Mansfield, “It is important that students receive up-todate and current information about

tablished rules in order to maintain
their “party line” and remove the
potential for an unwanted compromise. A recent video of a meeting
of the House revealed that, in an effort to prevent the passage of a bill
that could restart the government,
the majority had voted to repeal a
congressional rule that allowed the
minority to call a vote on a bill. In
doing so, they effectively prevented
any bill not supported by the majority from even being considered,
let alone passed. Lacking this ability, the passage of a measure to restart the government has become
remarkably difficult. While such
attempts to eschew long-standing
government rules are not unheard
of, they have always been quite rare,
and should not be taken lightly.
One of the founding principles of the United States, going
back to its very birth in the Revolutionary War, was republicanism.
Not “Republicanism” as in relation
to the current Republican Party, but
the concept of leaders putting aside
their personal desires and biases
to work for the good of the nation.
This philosophy is integrated quite
deeply into our current government
system, and so is demanded of those
involved in it if it is to properly function. When recent events are taken
into account, it unfortunately becomes clear that republicanism has
become a difficult trait to find in our
leaders.
In our current, politically polarized government, the general attitude seems to be to stand by the
edicts of one’s party, regardless of
the harm this may cause the nation.
Such refusal to compromise is quite
contrary to the ideals of the Founding Fathers, who designed our government, and so fits poorly with the
system they invented. Taking this
into account, deadlocks, such as
the one that led to the recent shut-

Running is oftentimes a misunderstood sport; what is strange
is that running is about as primal
as sports can get. The objective in
cross country is, put simply, to run
in a circle as fast as you can. What
confuses many is why students
pursue such a grueling sport. Most
people dread the idea of running
the mile in P.E.–why would anyone
ever consider doing it when it’s not a
requirement? The truth is that even
the Analy Cross Country Team
wouldn’t disagree with the physical,
and sometimes mental, toll running
takes. Even they complain when
they hear from Coach Mark Grismer
that today they will have a difficult
track workout, like they do every
Thursday. The difference is that the
cross country runners find pride in
their exhaustion. Running, like anything demanding, gives a sense of
accomplishment. The snall segment

The U.S. Government is now wellpast its two-hundredth birthday.
While it almost certainly will, with
much groaning and complaining,
find a way to get through its current affairs, its growing inefficiency
is becoming difficult to ignore. Perhaps the shutdown may serve as the
wake-up call needed to bring the increasingly paralyzing political partisanship in Washington to the public
attention, so that it can finally be
addressed. Perhaps, then, it may in
truth be a blessing in disguise, setting the stage for a return to greater
effectiveness in government. Perhaps we may yet prove Benjamin
Franklin wrong.

As for the Analy Cross
Country season this year, it has
been a slow start. The team has yet
to compete in a SCL league meet.
There have also only been three
preseason meets. At Maxwell Park
in Sonoma, Analy Cross Country faced Sonoma, Windsor, and
Casa Grande. Analy boys were led
by “Blantaj”, or Jake Gibbs, Dante
Capone, and Blake Jamar, who finished 6th, 7th, and 8th out of 74
boys. In the girls’ race, Analy Varsity
was led by Molly Foster and Emma
Douch, 3rd and 4th out of 52 runners. Analy took 2nd place overall,
bested only by Casa Grande. This
is a promising start for the Analy
Cross Country team. This year at the
Viking opener, Analy placed higher
than it has in the past 5 years. The
cross country team has the ability
to have a phenomenal season this
year. Analy’s standings will all come

Metamorphoses
By Fifi Perkins
It’s been hectic this time of
the month, for all our phenomenal
actors and actresses at Analy High
School have been putting their best
effort towards preparing for this
fall's drama production.
Analy has a reputation for
putting on outstanding productions, and all the stars of this play
are sure to live up to our expectations this fall. People come from all
around Sonoma County just to see
and appreciate Analy's fine theatre
arts, so take advantage of the fact
that the play's being put on right
here at home for everyone to see!
This year's fall play is Metamorphoses, and it’s based on Mary
Zimmerman's adaptation of Ovid's
Greek myths. The play consists of
several different stories and myths,
but what's most intriguing is the
fact that all scenes are taking place
in and around a built-in pool on
the stage. That's right, for this play,
they built an actual pool on the
stage. Water is extremely symbolic
and very important for this show.
Nothing else can be given away–
everyone will have to see for themselves how this pool will be used in
the play!
A lot of blood, sweat, and
tears went into building the set,
considering the fact there's a pool.
When everyone comes to see Metamorphoses, they must make sure to
admire not only the play itself but
the quality set!
Those who are a part of our
wonderful cast are: Rowan Abbott,
Katie Imbach, Madi Philips, Evan
McDonnel, Dylan Jones, Sabrina
Blais, Allie Orth, Rebecca Westling,
Johnny Schoen, Malachi Cronshey,
Ally Cline, Sophie Carbone, and
Celina Kegerreis, along with other
crew members. Let these Analy students blow your mind as they have
their characters come to life on
stage.
The dates that Metamorphoses will be showing are November 8, 9, 14, 15, 16, 22 & 23 at
7 P.M. in Analy's Auditorium. The
matinees are on Saturday, November 10th and Sunday, November 16
at 2 P.M. Options are to pay online
at brownpapertickets.com or at the
door. General admission online
costs $10 for adults and $7 students/seniors. At the door, general
admission costs $13 for adults and
$10 for students/seniors. Keep in
mind there is limited seating!
Just as they do each year,
the Analy Students in this play have
dedicated themselves to making
sure the show is entertaining, delightful, and lively. There's no doubt
that all their hard work and dedication will pay off, so make sure to
come and support the students who
made this marvelous play possible.

and wine sellers. Continuing the
alcoholic trend, two breweries and
a distillery have opened, hoping to
encourage more a nightlife than is
present in the rest of Sebastopol.
As an appeal to a younger crowd,
opening soon there will be an ice
cream and frozen yogurt shop that
uses liquid nitrogen to freeze its
treats and the Juicer will be opening, offering, as its name suggests,
juice.
As far as food goes, Village Bakery and popular Sonoma County
restaurant Zazu will both be moving to new locations in the Barlow.
Two markets or food stores will
be opening, as well as an herb and
spice shop and a new permanent
location for the Sebastopol Farmers Market. Guayaki Yerba Mate
will remain in the area, offering
its popular South American mate.
Taylor Maid Farms will be returning to the building it was founded
in, in 1995.
The area includes many forms of
art, both traditional and industrial.
There is a Tibetan art studio and
gallery as well as one or two traditional art galleries. There is also a
glassblowing studio and bronze art
foundry, reinforcing the industrial
appeal of the architecture.
Many smaller shops are scattered
through the area including a bookseller, a Waldorf toy store and a
yoga and dance studio.
Teacher Insight:
Mr. Carpenter
in college.
Interviewed by Ashton Fandel
I'd have to say Mr.
Forslund and Mr. Carter.
We're the same age
and have a lot in common. Ms. Ambrose is my
new favorite, though!
Who is your best teacherfriend at Analy?
What has been your best Halloween
costume?
My most memorable was probably when I was in eighth grade
and wore a dress and heels and my
mom put mascara on my really
long eyelashes.
Did you have long hair at the time?
It was more like an afro. In the
eighth grade I combed my hair
with a pick. I wasn’t quite cool
enough to leave it in there, but
I walked around with it in my
pocket.
Corn maze or haunted house?
Corn maze, definitely! This isn’t a
funny response, but it just makes
me think of my little kids, and
those were really fun memories.
My wife and I were sad driving by
the pumpkin patch the other day,
because the kids don’t want to go
anymore.
If you could attend a free seminar
on something, what would it be?
I'm a history nerd, so I'd love to
listen to a lecture by Gordon Wood,
an expert on Colonial and Revolutionary American History. If I
was in a lighter mood, I think a talk
given by David Sedaris would be
fun.
What TV show do you most closely
relate your life to?
I think the obvious choice for a TV
character most like me would be
Walter White of Breaking Bad.
When did you start playing guitar?
I started when I was a sophomore
Really, The Barlow is an attempt to reinvigorate and reinvent
an area of downtown Sebastopol
that was all but forgotten. In this
way, it has succeeded in turning
what was once an eyesore into a
new possibility for our town.
How would you describe
your social status in high
school?
High school is lame–I was into
sports, but I’ve been a reformed
jock the rest of my life after high
school, trying to become an intelligent, thoughtful person. You can
still see my picture on the wall at
El Molino. You can say I peaked in
high school, which is really sad. It’s
been downhill since then.
What is something interesting about
yourself?
I play guitar and sing in a band
called 'Love Handles'. I don't know
if that's interesting, but we’re available for wedding anniversaries and
bar mitzvahs.
