Tradition Times Potter-Dix High School Tradition Times Potter-Dix High School Volume 1 - Issue 4 By. RhiAnne Hillyer and Ana Manning H o m e cPoottemr-Diixn Hogm evcoemirng s20e19.s T hwis yeeaers kHo mecoming was filled with fun dress up days, enjoyable activities, and even our first snow of the year. The theme this year was “versus”. Our Homecoming festivities started with Dress up VS. Dress down day. Roll out of bed and come to school in your cozy and comfy pajamas or dress up! Tuesday was Rap VS. Country, the question was asked, do I have the stuff to be a rapper, or the tuff to be a country singer. Niko was the winner for Sophomores. Wednesday….. Gender Bender Day!!!! Girls VS. Boys, are you girly enough to dress like your dad or are you manly enough to wear a dress to school? Ben was the winner for Freshman. Thursday, as our first snow fall, many kids decided on if they wanted to be a Nerd, a Jock, or possibly just dress warm because it has gotten just a little colder. Finally the day we have all been waiting for… Friday!!! It Wednesday's game, photo courtesy of Mrs. Thomas wasn’t just like any old Friday, this Friday was Red out VS. White out. This Friday was Game Day!!! As many fans and old graduates came back to support our Coyotes we all couldn’t wait to play the South Platte Blue Knights. Stands were packed and cheers were loud. Our many devoted fans helped us to keep fighting in our games against South Platte. So thank you to all that came to root on our girls and boys!! Unfortunately, our coyotes lost. We'll get them next time! By. Hannah Reeve FAnedraetw Vuakroce isd th iss eissnuei’so ferat ured senior. He has been going to Potter-Dix since the third quarter of his Sophomore year. After highschool he is planning on potentially joining the Marines and or go to The University of Wyoming as well. When asked what he’d miss he said “Mrs. Klassen and people to talk to.” He said he won’t miss ‘annoying people’. We will miss Andrew and his sarcastic sense of humor but are happy to see him start the next chapter in his life. Make sure to leave your suggestion in the box in the commons area Shivering in our boots By. RhiAnne Hillyer October 10, 2019, was the first day of the snow season in Potter-Dix, NE, only 7 days earlier than last year’s first snow fall on October 17. The snow started to lightly fall around 6:00 a.m, but it got a little harder as the time went on. The high was to be 25 degrees and the low was to be -5 degrees. The snow ended around 11:00 a.m. and after that it was just blowing around. During the 6th period on Thursday, the power went out for around 10-20 minutes. I asked Ana Manning what she liked and didn’t like about driving to school in the snow, she said, “As long as I stay calm, the snow doesn’t bother me. But I didn’t like how cold it was.” The next day, it was -7 but it felt like -13. October 14th 2019 the high was to be 70 degrees, since the first day of the snow season, the temperature has been all wacky. One day will be really warm and the next will be really chilly. Some of the students are saying that it is Christmas time because it snowed. Other students were upset because it is Spooky season. Most students brought blankets and wore warm clothes. Mr. Baker Keeping His Promise By. RhiAnne Hillyer Have you noticed a little change in the commons area? Has there been a change? Yes, there has been a slight change: new furniture was added. Little gray cylinder things for your feet, or you can just sit on them. Those gray cylinders are called ottomans. In the morning, on some days, students are in the commons area instead of the gym. Mr. Baker has been believing in us since the first day of school. He chooses to put furniture in the commons area so students have a place to hang out, and have conversations. Some students want a pop and popcorn machine. In the pop machine they want Gatorade, Juice, and of course pop. They want different types of popcorn that they can choose from. They want a costume sport Potter-Dix rug to show more of our school spirit. They think that if we put one or more of these things in it they would like it better. They use it most of the time but they said “If one or more of these things were put in the commons area they would use it all the time.” I want to give a big thanks to Mr. Baker for giving us a place to hang out, have conversations with our friends and meet new people. EnteBy. rHannahta Reeveinment The Sidney Fox Theater is now playing: Maleficent: Mistress of Evil- 7:00pm-9:00pm The Addams Family- 7:00pm-9:00pm this week's weather By. Hannah Reeve Fun Facts TheP olargesttt epumpkinr-di everx S measuredpook wasto grownber by Norm Craven, who broke the world record in 1993 with a 836 lb. pumpkin. Harry Houdini (1874-1926) was one of the most famous and mysterious magicians who ever lived. Strangely enough, he died in 1926 on Halloween night as a result of appendicitis brought on by three stomach punches. Both Salem, Massachusetts, and Anoka, Minnesota, are the self-proclaimed Halloween capitals of the world. Children are more than twice as likely to be killed in a pedestrian/car accident on Halloween than on any other night. In Alabama, it is illegal to dress-up as a priest. October 30th is National Candy Corn Day. It's actually very rare for a full moon to occur on Halloween. Although, it's predicted to occur on 10/31/2020. In the UK white cats are thought to bring bad luck, not like black cats in the US. Have leftover candy? Save it! Hard candy lasts for a year, while chocolate can last up to two. Many shelters don't allow black cats to be adopted around Halloween for fear that they may be tortured or sacrificed. Americans purchase over 20 million pounds of Candy Corn each year. Halloween is the third biggest party day of the year behind New Year's Eve and Super Bowl Sunday. Candy corn has been made with the same recipe by the Jelly Belly Candy Company since around 1900. The biggest pumpkin pie on record was 20 feet in diameter and weighed 3,699 pounds. It was baked by the New Breman Giant Pumpkin Growers in Ohio in 2010, breaking their own previous world's record of 2,020 pounds. The ginormous orange pie contained 1,212 pounds of pumpkin, 233 dozen eggs, 109 gallons of evaporated milk, 525 pounds of sugar, 7 pounds of salt, and 14.5 pounds of cinnamon. How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop? On average, a licking machine designed by engineering students at Purdue needed 364. Most haunted in america St. Augustine Lighthouse, St. Augustine, Florida The St. Augustine Lighthouse is one of the earliest lighthouses in America. The lighthouse as we know it was constructed in 1824, but the original lighthouse was built by the Spanish in the 16th century. It is said to be haunted by many ghosts. Some of the most well known include: 2 of a foreman’s children who were playing at the construction sight and drowned; and light keeper Joseph Andreu who fell to his death, about 60 feet, when painting the lighthouse and the scaffolding he was using gave out. It is said that doors with electric alarms will open without any alarms going off, furniture will move on its own and the laughter of small children can be heard throughout the lighthouse. R.M.S. Queen Mary, Long Beach, California The Queen Mary is a British ocean liner whose construction took place from 1928 to 1934. She sailed primarily on the North Atlantic ocean from 1936 to 1967. In World War II she was painted navy grey and used as a troopship. Due to her new color and her incredible speed, she was nicknamed “Grey Ghost”. After the war she was re-fit for passenger voyages and painted back to her original colors. She is now permanently docked in Long Beach, California. Time Magazine named the Queen Mary as one of the most haunted places in America in 2008. Several rooms are claimed to be haunted. One of which, room B-340, is supposedly haunted by the spirit of a person that was murdered there. “Door 13”, a door in the ship’s engine room, is also said to be haunted, reportedly two men have been crushed and killed by the door on two seperate occasions. There is supposably 150+ identifiable spirits on board. LaLaurie Mansion New Orleans, Louisiana Delphine LaLaurie was the owner of the LaLaurie Mansion. The building is said to be cursed due to the horrors that took place within its walls. Rumors of mistreatment towards LaLaurine’s slaves surfaced and an investigation turned up nothing in 1832. In 1834, a kitchen fire broke out in the mansion. Fire Marshals found an elderly slave chained to the stove. She admitted that she lit the fire in a suicide attempt to avoid punishment from LaLaurie in, what she refered to, as the “torture room” upstairs.

  • The Mythology of Marie Laveau in and out of the Archive (2019) Directed by Dr
    CARTER, MORGAN E., M.A. Looking For Laveau: The Mythology of Marie Laveau In and Out of the Archive (2019) Directed by Dr. Tara T. Green. 97 pp. The purpose of this work is to engage with the proliferation of the myth of Marie Laveau, the nineteenth-century Voodoo figure of New Orleans, Louisiana and its multiple potentialities as both a tool of investment in whiteness as a form of intellectual property as well as a subject for myth as uplift, refusal, and resistance in terms of southern black womanhood and the critically imaginary. In this work, I create a trajectory of work that has endeavored to “recover” Laveau within institutionalized forms of knowing, specifically taking to task projects of recovery that attempt to present Laveau as a figure of strong leadership for women through institutionalized spaces and forms of knowledge, such as the archive while simultaneously dismissing other, “nonacademic” proliferations of the Laveau myth. This thesis serves to decenter the research, reading, and writing of the Laveau mythology as within the academy, which ostensibly serves white and normative generated and centered ways of knowing, identifying, and articulating, in favor of a methodology that accounts for cultural forms of mythologies that center memory, lineage, and communal identification. Through this critical work, I hope to supply a critical imaginary of what a Creole/Cajun southern feminism would look like, and how it is deeply intertwined with gendered and racialized nuances that are specific to region and community.

  • Sexual Violence in the Slaveholding Regimes of Louisiana and Texas: Patterns of Abuse in Black Testimony
    Sexual Violence in the Slaveholding Regimes of Louisiana and Texas: Patterns of Abuse in Black Testimony Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Andrea Helen Livesey June 2015 UAbstract This study is concerned with the sexual abuse of enslaved women and girls by white men in the antebellum South. Interviews conducted by the Federal Writers’ Project in the 1930s are studied alongside nineteenth-century narratives of the formerly enslaved in order to make calculations of the scale of abuse in the South, but also to discover which conditions, social spaces and situations were, and possibly still are, most conducive to the sexual abuse of women and girls. This thesis is separated into two parts. Part One establishes a methodology for working with testimony of the formerly enslaved and determines the scale of sexual abuse using all available 1930s interviews with people who had lived in Louisiana and Texas under slavery. This systematic quantitative analysis is a key foundation from which to interpret the testimony of abuse that is explored according to different forms of sexual violence in Part Two. It is argued that abuse was endemic in the South, and occurred on a scale that was much higher than has been argued in previous studies. Enslaved people could experience a range of white male sexually abusive behaviours: rape, sexual slavery and forced breeding receive particular attention in this study due to the frequency with which they were mentioned by the formerly enslaved. These abuses are conceptualised as existing on a continuum of sexual violence that, alongside other less frequently mentioned practices, pervaded the lives of all enslaved people.

BOSTON NEW-YORK CHARLESTON NEW ORLEANS HDT WHAT? INDEX NEW ORLEANS LOUISIANA 1680 July: The war party of the Issati Sioux with its 3 white captives Père Louis Hennepin, Antoine Augelle, and Michel Accault went down the St. Francis River and camped awhile. Hennepin and Augelle were then permitted to travel down the Mississippi River, under guard of course, to fetch supplies which René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle had promised to send and deposit at the mouth of the Wisconsin River. After a journey of about 160 miles downriver, however, a large band of Issati overtook them and carried them back to the great camp at Mille Lacs. This was the end of Hennepin’s exploration down the Mississippi. He definitely did not go to the river’s mouth (as he would in a later timeframe publish). Along the way Hennepin and his guards met the famous French explorer Daniel Graysolon Du Lhut, who had been roaming the region to the west and southwest of Lake Superior. HDT WHAT?

  • Prototipos Brujescos Televisivos Como Posibles Continuadores De Estereotipos Femeninos Tradicionales. El Caso De American Horror
    MONOGRÁFICO Investigaciones Feministas ISSNe: 2171-6080 https://dx.doi.org/10.5209/infe.66496 Prototipos brujescos televisivos como posibles continuadores de estereotipos femeninos tradicionales. El caso de American Horror Story: Coven (2013) y Apocalypse (2018) Rebeca López-Villar1 Recibido: Diciembre 2018 / Revisado: Junio 2019 / Aceptado: Julio 2019 Resumen. Con este texto se realizará un estudio sobre las ficciones televisivasAmerican Horror Story: Coven (2013) y Apocalypse (2018) con el fin de comprobar si los personajes brujescos presentes en ellas perpetúan determinados estereotipos femeninos tradicionales. A través del análisis del modo en que son construidas las protagonistas de la serie y de sus diálogos, se determinará la continuidad de clichés como el de la mujer fatal o el de la figura femenina maternal y familiar. Además, se tratará de identificar posibles rasgos feministas en las brujas concebidas por Ryan Murphy y Brad Falchuk, así como establecer analogías entre estos y la apropiación de atributos brujescos por parte de ciertos grupos activistas –W.I.T.C.H.–. Paralelamente, se apuntarán otras cuestiones que en esta producción se vinculan con la bruja, como la aparición de personajes históricos reales o la problemática racial. Se descubrirá, finalmente, que el término bruja no se encuentra unido a una sola significación. Hablar de brujas supone hacerlo sobre algo más que el estereotipado y conocido personaje de ficción e identificar a la bruja, en femenino, con la curandera o con la partera, con la mujer socialmente calificada de fea y malvada, con la femme fatale, con la rebelde e independiente... Palabras clave: Bruja, Feminismo, Televisión, Femme fatale, Estereotipo [en] Witch prototypes in television as possible continuators of traditional feminine stereotypes.

On a few occasions during those three intervening decades, however, the city factored into Lincoln’s life.
