November 2018 Vermillion.K12.Sd.Us Vermillion High School’S Student Newspaper Giving Thanks & Giving Back by Mason Cournoyer November 30, 2018 www.plaintalk.net Vermillion Plain Talk 9 NOVEMBER 2018 VERMILLION.K12.SD.US VERMILLION HIGH SCHOOL’S STUDENT NEWSPAPER GIVING THANKS & GIVING BACK BY MASON COURNOYER he Thanksgiving holiday is a time for families to get together around a grand feast, celebrating the good times surrounded by Tthe ones they love. It is a beautiful festivity held across the United States of America, in which we sometimes take for granted. There are fam- ilies everywhere who cannot join due to their nancial situations elly Stone, a teacher at Vermillion High School, aims to that within our community. She devised the Tanager Takeout program, which is located inside Vermillion High School in Room 41 and is held every Friday. ÒWeÕve been looking to getting more food to the kids in our school and their families,Ó Stone says. The program happily serves around 50 families weekly combining efforts with the likes of the Welcome Table and The Backpack Program. Together, they ensure our community is not hungry and not alone. As a participant of Tanager Takeout myself, I have nothing but praise for what Mrs. Stone is doing. If you feel the same way and want to help in any way possible, donate food or money to PO Bo 219 and your contribution will not be forgotten. Another program helping serve the community of Vermillion is the Food Pantry, located at Trinity Lutheran Church. Teresa McDowell Kelly Stone (far right) and Tanager Takeout volunteers. Photo submitted by Kelly Stone. Johnson is one of the few who help keep the community fed. ÒIÕve always worked in Social Services,Ó she said, ÒI like working with individuals. I know people are hungry and theyÕre invisible to regular citizens. ou never know what the person net to you is going through. A good kid wouldnÕt be able to concentrate if heÕs hungry and no one can visibly see that. A lot of food in great condition is thrown away when they should be going to families who need it.Ó As many as 270 families around the Vermillion Community are served every month. The Thanksgiving holiday can see as much as 150,000 pounds of food donated to the Food Pantry program. The Thanksgiving meals offer turkeys, stufng, cranberry sauce, corn, and pretty much anything else holiday related. The Food Pantry program is only as strong as its volunteers which has over 80 people who donate their time each year. In addition to the great volunteers, the Food Pantry also combines efforts with various other programs surrounding the community including the Welcome Table, Tanager Takeout, Backpack Program, the Salvation Army, EvanÕs Diaper Bank, and BrianÕs Closet. If you are interested in donating to the Food Pantry, you can drop off items at 81 East Clark, at one of the drop boes located at any of the churches in Vermillion, or at the blue barrel drop sites at Walmart and HyVee.

  • Ophelia Lived on the Floating Ark of Anima, One of the Few Territories To
    THE MIRROR VISITOR 2. T HE MISSING OF CLAIRDELUNE VOLUME 1 R ECALLED A W INTER ’S PROMISE phelia lived on the floating ark of Anima, one of the few territories to survive the Rupture of the old O world. And before she was betrothed, all was for the best in the best of all possible shattered worlds. Ophelia was certainly one of the clumsiest Animists, due to an accident with a mirror, but her hands had always produced excellent read - ings of objects and she felt at home in her museum. So, the day Thorn tears her away from her family and her ark to take her to the Pole, it’s her own world that’s shattered. Ophelia discov - ers the Citaceleste, a floating city built on illusions. The nobles there are endowed with dangerous powers and ready for all kinds of treachery to gain the favor of Farouk, their family spirit. He is the half-human, half-divine figure who rules over the Pole, and a disturbing character, to say the least. It doesn’t help that Thorn is the son of a disgraced woman and Treasurer of the Pole, so he’s detested by everyone. With the collusion of his aunt, Berenilde, he hides his fiancée from everyone while awaiting the marriage. First locked away in a manor, then disguised as a valet, Ophelia gets to know the ins and outs of this world that rejects her before even knowing her. And that’s how she finally learns of the existence of Farouk’s Book, an ancient and enigmatic tome with which the family spirit is truly obsessed.

  • 19 the Hero in Contemporary Spanish American
    SPRING 1972 19 The Hero in Contemporary Spanish American Theatre: A Case of Diminishing Returns JOAN REA GREEN The traditional role of the mythological hero demands that he follow a standard path of adventure which is a magnification of the formula represented in the rites of passage: i.e. separation-initiation-return. As Joseph Campbell de­ fines his quest, "A hero ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder; fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won; the hero comes back from his mysterious adventure with the power to bestow boons on his fellow man."1 When the figure of the hero is translated from myth to literature however, the traditional role is not always played, nor does the hero always follow the standard path. His stature, power, and behaviour have all been used as determinants in the classification of works of fiction. For example, Aristotle speaks, in Chapter II of the Poetics, of the differences in works of fiction which are caused by the varying elevations of the characters in them. Northrup Frye, employing Aristotle's use of the words oxa/iSatoç and i/^oc^Àoç in their figurative sense of weighty and light rather than in their moralistic sense of good and bad, classifies fictions by the hero's power of action, which may be greater than ours, less, or roughly the same.2 Thus, he states, we may have the hero who is superior in \ind to other men and to their environment. He is a divine being, and the tales told about him will be myths in the common sense.

  • The ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioural Disorders
    The ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioural Disorders Clinical descriptions and diagnostic guidelines World Health Organization -1- Preface In the early 1960s, the Mental Health Programme of the World Health Organization (WHO) became actively engaged in a programme aiming to improve the diagnosis and classification of mental disorders. At that time, WHO convened a series of meetings to review knowledge, actively involving representatives of different disciplines, various schools of thought in psychiatry, and all parts of the world in the programme. It stimulated and conducted research on criteria for classification and for reliability of diagnosis, and produced and promulgated procedures for joint rating of videotaped interviews and other useful research methods. Numerous proposals to improve the classification of mental disorders resulted from the extensive consultation process, and these were used in drafting the Eighth Revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-8). A glossary defining each category of mental disorder in ICD-8 was also developed. The programme activities also resulted in the establishment of a network of individuals and centres who continued to work on issues related to the improvement of psychiatric classification (1, 2). The 1970s saw further growth of interest in improving psychiatric classification worldwide. Expansion of international contacts, the undertaking of several international collaborative studies, and the availability of new treatments all contributed to this trend. Several national psychiatric bodies encouraged the development of specific criteria for classification in order to improve diagnostic reliability. In particular, the American Psychiatric Association developed and promulgated its Third Revision of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, which incorporated operational criteria into its classification system.

    Cover History and Politics:Mise en page 1 3/20/09 4:04 PM Page 1 Twenty years after the end of the Cold War and the collapse of communism the battles about the right interpretation of the twentieth century past are still being fought. In some countries even the courts have their say on what is or is not the historical truth. But primarily politicians have claimed a dominant role Politics of the Past: in these debates, often mixing history and politics in an irresponsible way. The European Parliament has become the arena where this culminates. Nevertheless, not every Member of Parliament wants to play historian. That is the The Use and Abuse of History background of Politics of the Past, in which historians take the floor to discuss the tense and ambivalent relationship between their profession and politics.
