Weber State University will be hosting the Utah District One debate between Republican candidate Blake Moore and Democratic candidate Rick Jones. The debate will be taking place on Oct. 10, at 6:00 p.m. in the Val A. Browning Center. Kerry Bringhurst, Utah Public Radio Station Manager, will be the mediator.

Moore is the incumbent, serving as one of Utah’s House Representatives since January of 2021. According to Moore’s campaign media, his goals are to lower inflation, secure American-made energy and increase military funding.

Jones, on the other hand, strives to advance American ideals, work toward fair taxation, combat climate change and reduce health care costs, according to his cam-

paign media.

“What’s nice about a debate is the candidate gets asked a question and they answer it without any spin,” Dr. Leah Murray, Brady Presidential Distinguished Professor, said. “They can just watch the human who is running for office answer the question.”

Murray mentioned that a majority of campaign information and media is second-hand information, or not directly from the candidate.

WSU students will be listening live and fact-checking information, statistics and statements made by the candidates.

“I’m going to be actively finding those sources and then handing them off,” Kyle Housley, WSU’s speech and debate co-captain, said.

Housley and his fellow students will be live-Tweeting any confir-

mations or contradictions to facts or past statements that the candidates make.

The subject matter of the debate is still unknown, but Housley said they have been working diligently to gather all the information possible.

“We have been going through and compiling topics that are somewhat likely to come up,” Housley said.

Housley also mentioned that they have researched Jones’ and Moore’s websites to find what topics they campaign around.

“We’re trying to cover our bases right now,” Housley said. “Anything that we think might come up, we’ve been going through and compiling sources to make things easier the day of.”

Murray urged students to attend or watch the debate if possible, even just tuning in to the live Twit-

ter feed.

“I think students should be watching for how they answer the questions and how they think about things,” Murray said.

Murray also mentioned her desire for students to use their political voice. “Everyone should register to vote,” Murray said. “I need students to do it as soon as possible.”

Students can register to vote online at https://secure.utah.gov/ voterreg/index.html.

“This is the opportunity to make

politics personal,” Housley said.

Housley said this is an opportunity most students won’t receive; students having an opportunity for this sort of interaction with those involved in the federal government is important.

“I urge students to take this opportunity to meet the candidates and make the informed choice at the ballot box next month,” Housley said.

ricio spoke on the roles of an interpreter, which are more than just speaking about the events and giving a voice-over in another language. Interpreting also includes translating instructional videos and rulebooks into more languages.

An important thing to understand is that translating and interpreting are two different things. Translating has deadlines, is done in large groups and is for written texts. Interpreting is mostly oral, has time constraints, and small teams of around two people.

As an interpreter for a sports event or conference, you work as part of a language services group run by the local organizing committee. Those local organizing committees are made by the country hosting the event, which is chosen by the owner of the brand of the games.

When asked about the worry of speaking a non-native language, Aparicio said, “When I speak English, I make mistakes.

When I speak French, I make mistakes. It’s

normal. It’s a foreign language.”

The final event for WSU’s translation week was a panel and Q&A with Stephanie Casale, Kathleen Diamond, Esther Bonin, Adam Wooten, and Randy Morgan of ALC Bridge.

Bridge is a program with the goal of helping more students get into various parts of the translating industry.

“The beauty of the industry today is that it doesn’t matter where you are.” Bonin said.

The field gives translators the ability to translate anywhere in the world as long as they have the technology.

Bonin found there was an issue in the American translation school path because it was not properly preparing students for the field. This was the reason why Bonin chose to join ALC Bridge, so she could have a hand in fixing the issues in properly preparing students.

Translation Week began on Sept. 26 and lasted until Sept. 30. The event was organized by the Foreign Language Department of Lindquist College of Arts and Humanities.

International Translation Day is Sept. 30, celebrating St. Jerome, the patron saint of translators.

The religious translation and localization lecture was given by Tod Harris and Gema Ortiz. During this particular lecture, Ortiz spoke on her work in translating the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ texts and websites.

“Localization is the bridge between computer design and language implementations,” Ortiz said.

Ortiz spoke on the challenge of mistak-

enly putting symbols that are offensive in another country, using the Umbrella Movement as an example, where a yellow umbrella intended to represent Christ caused issues with Chinese audiences due to its political symbolism in China. ”Scripture by nature is what’s called multivalent,” Harris said.

Multivalent means that, depending on the reader, the scripture can be interpreted in multiple ways.

There are two main ways to translate the Bible: literal and dynamic. Literal translation is where you translate each word directly into the target language. Dynamic translation is where you translate the ideas, but not the words used.

Cuando se le preguntó por la preocupación de hablar una lengua no nativa, Aparicio dijo: “Cuando hablo inglés, cometo errores. Cuando hablo en francés, cometo errores. Es normal. Es una lengua extranjera”.

El evento final de la semana de la traducción de la WSU fue un panel y una sesión de preguntas y respuestas con Stephanie Casale, Kathleen Diamond, Esther Bonin, Adam Wooten y Randy Morgan de ALC Bridge.

Bridge es un programa con el objetivo de ayudar a más estudiantes a entrar en diversas partes de la industria de la traducción.

“Lo bonito del sector hoy en día es que no importa dónde estés”. dijo Bonin.

Este sector ofrece a los traductores la posibilidad de traducir en cualquier parte del mundo siempre que dispongan de la tecnología necesaria.

Bonin descubrió que había un problema en la trayectoria de las escuelas de traducción estadounidenses porque no preparaban adecuadamente a los estudiantes para este campo. Por este motivo, Bonin decidió unirse a ALC Bridge, para poder contribuir a solucionar los problemas de preparación de los estudiantes.

La Semana de la Traducción comenzó el 26 de septiembre y duró hasta el 30 de septiembre. El evento fue organizado por el Departamento de Lenguas Extranjeras del Colegio de Artes y Humanidades Lindquist.

El 30 de septiembre se celebra el Día Internacional de la Traducción, en honor a San Jerónimo, patrón de los traductores.

La conferencia sobre traducción y localización religiosa fue impartida por Tod Harris y Gema Ortiz. Durante esta conferencia, Ortiz habló de su trabajo de traducción de los textos y sitios web de la Iglesia de Jesucristo de los Santos de los Últimos Días.

“La localización es el puente entre el diseño informático y las implementaciones lingüísticas”, dijo Ortiz.

Ortiz habló sobre el desafío de poner por error símbolos que son ofensivos en otro país, usando como ejemplo el Movimiento de los Paraguas, donde un paraguas amarillo que pretendía representar a Cristo causó problemas con el público chino debido a su simbolismo político en China.

“La Escritura, por naturaleza, es lo que se llama multivalente”, dijo Harris.

Multivalente significa que, dependiendo del lector, la escritura puede ser interpretada de múltiples maneras.

Hay dos formas principales de traducir la Biblia: literal y dinámica. La traducción literal es la que traduce cada palabra directamente a la lengua de destino. La traducción dinámica consiste en traducir las ideas, pero no las palabras utilizadas.

Daniel Aparicio habló el 28 de septiembre sobre su trabajo como intérprete deportivo durante el seminario web “¡En sus marcas, listos, ya! Aparicio habló sobre las funciones de un intérprete, que son más que hablar sobre los acontecimientos y dar una voz en off en otro idioma. La interpretación también incluye la traducción de vídeos instructivos y libros de reglas a más idiomas.

Es importante entender que traducir e interpretar son dos cosas diferentes. La traducción tiene plazos, se hace en grupos grandes y es para textos escritos. La interpretación es sobre todo oral, tiene limitaciones de tiempo y equipos reducidos de unas dos personas.

No matter what sport it is, athletes are always trying to tap into a winning mindset.

Some athletes do a war dance like the haka, play a ring walk song before a fight or perform a superstitious ritual. However, one of the best ways to improve in-game mentality deals with a necessity: choosing uniforms.

“I think it’s a huge tool that we can use in athletics to be able to change up some things so that it’s not the same thing week-in, weekout,” Joshua Weier, Weber State University’s director of equipment operations, said. “You

can have different variations to where guys obviously play better in certain things versus other color schemes.”

In most cases, teams and athletes make conscious decisions when determining what they want to wear for a match. Masters Tournament winning golfer Tiger Woods, for example, typically wears red when competing because his mother told him it was his “power color.”

Weber State’s sports teams are no exception, especially when it comes to football.

Followers of the team’s Instagram page often come across posts that show new uniforms.

Using gear made by Adidas, the Wildcats enter each season with three different types of

uniforms, each getting replaced every three years for a new design.

What makes uniform design so personal to the team is a committee of players that determine what will be worn. This board meets with Weier, designers and the director of football operations to determine what uniform concepts should be carried out.

Members of the committee include team captains like safety Desmond Williams, cornerback Eddie Heckard, linebacker Winston Reid, offensive lineman Noah Atagi and receiver Ty MacPherson. According to Weier, linebacker Raoul Johnson and running back Kevin Smith Jr. participate on the committee as well.

“That’s obviously been such a good thing in the past and for the future because nobody wants to go out there wearing something that they don’t think is going to be a good combination,” Weber State tight end Justin Malone said about the committee.

“We’ve designated people that we trust and are going to make the right decisions to pick our unit combos for the week.”

During the 2020 NBA season, the Los Angeles Lakers felt they had a competitive edge when wearing their “Black Mamba” uniforms. The team went on a 4–0 run in the jerseys designed by former Laker Kobe Bryant and wore the uniforms when they felt like they needed a critical win. Like the Lakers,

Weber State’s football team takes prior victories into account when picking uniforms.

“Whatever we’ve worn in the past sometimes comes up in our games in the future,” Malone said. “Say we wore black helmets, white jerseys, white pants and then white socks like we did last week against UC Davis.

If we did that in the past against UC Davis, we’ll probably do it again.”

Weber State’s football team is known for wearing unique uniforms to special events.

Back in 2018, the Wildcats faced the University of Northern Colorado on Throwback Night. To honor the 50th anniversary of Weber State’s 1968 Big Sky title win, the team wore throwback-purple jerseys along with a

new logo on their helmet called the “Flying W.” The throwback “Flying W” uniforms have been worn on multiple occasions, including last season’s homecoming match against Montana State University. Weier confirmed there will be another “Flying W” game this season on Nov. 5 against Sacramento State University.

“I know me and my teammates all love the ‘Flying W,’” Malone said. “I think we’re going to keep the tradition going of basically the ‘Flying W’ on helmets.”

Weber State’s football team is also wellknown for their black-out and color-rush uniforms. Worn on special games, like a rivalry

match against Southern Utah University last season, color rush uniforms feature purple helmets, jerseys and pants. According to Weier, the Wildcats will sport their color-rush gear during their upcoming homecoming game.

Weber State’s football team will be receiving new gear soon. According to Weier, one of the uniforms has reached its three-year mark and will be replaced next year. White team helmets have also been ordered but haven’t arrived yet due to shipping delays.

The Wildcats are currently 4–0 for the first time since 1998. Although there are multiple factors that have propelled the team to their current standing, Weber State believes

that uniform choices have contributed to their success.

“The old saying goes ‘if you look good, you play good,’” Weier said. “I’m a firm believer in that, so if the players like the combination and everything like that, I think it definitely helps in their performance on the field.”

The Wildcats will face Eastern Washington University for their homecoming match at 6 p.m. on Oct. 8 at Stewart Stadium.

A struggling Weber State women’s soccer team found their first win of conference play against Northern Arizona University on Sept.

29 at Wildcat Soccer Field.

Weber State took this game from the Lumberjacks with a score of 1–0 after Brynlee Meyerhoffer crossed it over to Grace Kirby to finish it with a header.

In what looked to be an offensive battle, each team finished the game with four shots on goal and with a combined 27 shots.

Weber State goalkeeper Mekell Moss was perfect in goal despite Northern Arizona taking four shots on target. Moss was able to

secure the clean sheet record, and walk away their first shutout of the season.

With the deficit only being by one, Northern Arizona kept fighting to get that equalizer. Both sides wouldn’t let go, resulting in a physical match.

Weber State had seven fouls and two yellow cards from Alaina Wildenradt and Yira Yoggerst. Northern Arizona finished with 12 fouls and two yellow cards from Logan Maszton and Dai Williams.

With Weber State sitting at 0–2 in conference play before the match and losing their previous two conference games to University of Idaho (1–0) and Eastern Washington (3–1), the Wildcats came into this game with high intensity.

“We’ve been playing well enough to win these conference games, having plenty of

chances and shots on goal, just not getting the results we wanted,” head coach Craig Sanders said.

With this being Northern Arizona‘s first conference game, they came out ready to start the match.

“We knew that they’d be good,” Sanders said. “They create a lot of chances, and they came into this game with a unique formation, but we made the adjustments and got the job done.”

Weber State is now 2–9 overall and 1–2 in conference play.

Various art students at Weber State University were featured at the “Art In Italy” gallery on campus. This exhibit highlighted the artistic creations of WSU art students who attended a study abroad trip in Italy.

The gallery was on Sept. 27 in the Shepherd Union, where students gathered to experience art and share stories in this mixed media art exhibit.

The gallery featured various exhibits ranging from paintings, sculptures, fashion illustrations, sketches and digital art.

The gallery displayed students’ work and showed many different messages from their work.

Cienna Moffit, a WSU student, created a digital painting and photography collage based on art and Italian architecture in Venice, Padua and Rome.

“Persa a Venezla” (Lost in Italy) done by Aaron Hokanson.

Makayla Geddes, a WSU student, created an acrylic painting inspired by Sandro Botticelli’s “Birth of Venus.” The piece symbolizes fertility and death, according to Geddes.

“This piece is about the acceptance of my condition, the sense of loss and sadness over Roe vs. Wade as well as hope for the future,” Geddes said.

Megan Montoya, a WSU student, created a hanging wire sculpture with wire titled “Seagulls Eat Pigeon at Piazza San Marco” to capture their emotions of experiencing Venice.

The gallery had an oil pastel painting displayed by Caleb Garrett, a WSU student, titled “The Calf.”

“This work is an accumulation of my study abroad experience; influenced by the frescoes and many oil paintings inside of the Scuola Grande di San Rocco in Venice, Italy,” Garrett said.

Addie Harmon, a WSU student, created an acrylic painting based on an “introspective

search for self love.”

Each of the students had their unique pieces that reflected their time in Italy and their passions.

“I learned I wanted to go into art during COVID. I had a lot of time to myself, and I learned I liked to make commissioned pieces and to draw a lot,” Ami Dillingham, a WSU student, said.

Dillingham shared sketches from during the trip in Italy and created digital art based on stories she had from the trip. Dillingham created an album cover titled “My Italian Boyfriend” inspired by one of her most memorable experiences.

Dillingham said she was walking around with a box of pizza while restaurant owners were trying to invite her into their restaurants.

“This man walked up and tried to get us to go to his restaurant,” Dillingham said. “At the time, I already had enough pizza, but I offered to share the pizza I had with him.

He must have thought I was so funny and told me he loved me and blew me a kiss. So that’s my Italian boyfriend.”

The students recommended study abroad programs to see what different parts of the world are doing in the students’ field of study.

“I really loved Italy,” Dillingham said.

“One of my favorite things was the access I had to art. In Ogden, we are working on increasing the art scene, but in Italy, it was everywhere.”

The Shepherd Union art gallery will continue to host art exhibitions throughout the semester. The next feature will begin on Oct. 7 with artwork by WSU and University of Utah Students.

The streets of Ogden were full of people in purple WSU gear and several breeds and sizes of dogs making their way through the parade. Those who entered the parade with their dogs were given “swag bags” containing sunglasses, a purple tote bag and other purple merchandise to promote the parade to further “paint Ogden purple.”

On Oct. 1, Weber State University kicked off its homecoming week with the Purple Paw Parade. WSU alumni gathered at the Municipal Garden with their dogs to show off their Wildcat pride.

The parade started a little after 9:30 a.m. at the Ogden Municipal Garden, right next to the 25th Street farmers market, then headed down Grant Avenue until they turned onto 22nd Street and finally headed down Washington Avenue to end at WSU’s Downtown Bookstore, where the dogs were greeted with “pup cups” of whipped cream and dog

and [Charlie] loves it,” Hoying said. “He loves to interact with other dogs and walk in new places.”

The parade was hosted by the WSU Alumni Relations Office and was the second event of the day of WSU’s homecoming week celebrations, following the Homecoming Recycling Race that occured that morning on campus.

Check-in for the event began at 9:00 a.m. with the race starting a little over half an hour later, with the dogs playing in the park while waiting for the parade to begin.

The parade itself lasted around 20 minutes before reaching the Ogden Bookstore.

In addition to 30% off of all Wildcat gear at the bookstore, the Ogden-based brand Og-

den Made also had discounts up to 40% off this weekend and The Daily Rise had coffee and crepes ready for participants to purchase once the parade had ended.

Weber State’s homecoming week will have events up until the homecoming football game on Saturday night against Eastern Washington University. These events include lighting the “W,” a masquerade dance, a silent disco dance and a tailgate before the football game.

QUIZ ANSWERS FROM PAGE 2

1.

2.

The answer is C, $60 million. According to CNN, President Biden, First Lady Jill Biden and FEMA administrator Deanne Criswell are traveling to Ponce, Puerto Rico, to meet with victims affected by Hurricane Fiona. While there, Biden will announce $60 million in funding from the bipartisan infrastructure law passed last year that will shore up levees, strengthen flood walls and create a new flood warning system to help Puerto Rico better prepare for future storms.

The answer is D, $10.7 million. According to Collider, Avatar made $3 million in its IMAX screenings this weekend. The film was rereleased two weeks ago as part of a limited engagement to showcase the film’s experience and to promote the upcoming sequel, Avatar: The Way of Water, coming out Dec. 16.

This brings its lifetime IMAX total to $10.7 million.

3.

The answer is D, The Lion King. According to KSL, The Lion King is making a roaring return to the Eccles Theater in SLC and is set to run from now until Oct. 23. The show was a smash hit when it made its initial national run in 2010 and has continued to be a huge hit in this state since its debut.

4.

The answer is A, 18. According to KSL, 18 temples were announced by Church President Russell M. Nelson at the conclusion of the recent General Conference. However, none were announced to be constructed in the state of Utah. At this time, there are ten previously-announced temples in Utah, bringing the total number of temples to 26 in this state alone.

Interestingly, four temples were announced in Mexico.
