LECANTO - 746- 3420 INVERNESS - 637 -2079 A2 MONDAY, JULY 5, 2021 LOCAL CITRUS COUNTY (FL) CHRONICLE Inverness celebrates in spite of the rain JEFF BRYAN/Chronicle After canceling its annual Patriotic Evening a year ago due to concerns surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, Mother Nature almost got the best of the city of Inverness on Saturday, July 3, in the city’s Depot District. But the rains finally cleared, giving way to a spectacular barrage of fireworks in the night sky as residents gathered in the Depot District and other key viewing areas as the city of Inverness celebrated the Fourth of July. Alexis Larsen, 4, rides on the back of Logan Harper, a family friend, Saturday afternoon, July 3, as they make their way through Liberty Park during a steady rain in Inverness. The park is where many residents gather for fireworks. Rainfall fell throughout Citrus County throughout the day Saturday making many doubt if the Inverness fireworks display would happen. The weather finally cooperated enough for the show to go on, a welcome relief to many. MATTHEW BECK/Chronicle Crystal River is a bit luckier with the weather STEPHEN SHANER/For the Chronicle Lilly Walsh, 2, sits on her mother’s, Angela Walsh of Homosassa, lap while getting a unicorn painted on her arm by face- painting artist Kayla Carroll of Inverness. Carroll says unicorns and superheroes are the most requested subjects. STEPHEN SHANER/For the Chronicle Robert Celllucci plays for the crowd at the Crystal River Old-Fashioned 4th of July. From his website: “Robert Celllucci is a touring country music artist mainly based on the east coast of the United States. He has been playing music since he was 12 years old. He started off with playing alternative music until one day his mom said to play some country, that is where he fell in love with the genre." Lindsay Bauer, Inverness, takes a photo of her daughter, Piper, 3, to post on her social media accounts. Bauer said this will be Piper’s first real fireworks.

    ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ INDIGENEITY, SETTLER COLONIALISM AND HISTORICAL MEMORY IN CANADA’S LARGEST CITY By Victoria Jane Freeman A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto ©Copyright by Victoria Jane Freeman 2010 ABSTRACT ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ ABSTRACT ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ INDIGENEITY, SETTLER COLONIALISM AND HISTORICAL MEMORY IN CANADA’S LARGEST CITY Doctor of Philosophy 2010 Victoria Jane Freeman Graduate Department of History University of Toronto The Indigenous past is largely absent from settler representations of the history of the city of Toronto, Canada. Nineteenth and twentieth century historical chroniclers often downplayed the historic presence of the Mississaugas and their Indigenous predecessors by drawing on doctrines of terra nullius , ignoring the significance of the Toronto Purchase, and changing the city’s foundational story from the establishment of York in 1793 to the incorporation of the City of Toronto in 1834. These chroniclers usually assumed that “real Indians” and urban life were inimical. Often their representations implied that local Indigenous peoples had no significant history and thus the region had little or no history before the arrival of Europeans. Alternatively, narratives of ethical settler indigenization positioned the Indigenous past as the uncivilized starting point in a monological European theory of historical development. i i iii In many civic discourses, the city stood in for the nation as a symbol of its future, and national history stood in for the region’s local history. The national replaced ‘the Indigenous’ in an ideological process that peaked between the 1880s and the 1930s.

The ways that Black students are constantly misjudged and mistreated by teachers and guidance counsellors is an injustice to our community. As educators who seek to enrich an increasingly diverse nation, it is your duty and responsibility to encourage, motivate, challenge and strengthen Black students like all others. When you begin to see Black students as part of your community, only then will you effectively fulfill your job as an educator. ~ Black Student About This Project This report is the result of a collaborative project between Dr. Carl James, Jean Augustine Chair in Education, Community & Diaspora at York University; the African Canadian Legal Clinic (ACLC); and the Ontario Alliance of Black School Educators (ONABSE). The community consultations were organized by the ACLC and ONABSE, while the research (data collection, analysis, and report writing) was led by Dr. Carl James with Tana Turner. JEAN AUGUSTINE CHAIR IN EDUCATION, COMMUNITY & DIASPORA The Jean Augustine Chair in Education, Community & Diaspora is a university chair in the Faculty of Education which aims to advance access, equity and inclusivity to education through community engagement and collaborative action.

  • Woman's Intuition
    MORE THAN “JUST A HUNCH:” MEANING, FEMININE INTUITION AND TELEVISION SLEUTHS by Sheela Celeste Dominguez A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, Florida December 2008 Copyright by Sheela Dominguez 2008 ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The author would like to express her sincere thanks and love to her family and friends for their loving support and encouragement throughout the writing of this thesis. The author is also grateful to her thesis advisor and committee for their patient guidance. iv ABSTRACT Author: Sheela Celeste Dominguez Title: More Than “Just a Hunch:” Meaning, Feminine Intuition and Television Sleuths Institution: Florida Atlantic University Thesis Advisor: Dr. Christine Scodari Degree: Master of Arts Year: 2008 The rise in popularity of the female sleuth television programs makes it important to explore representations of gender and knowledge. This investigation analyzes interpretations of intuition in the television sleuth genre and relevant paratexts, examines gendered public and private spheres and raises broader questions about gendered knowledge in the series Medium, Crossing Jordan, Law and Order: Criminal Intent, Veronica Mars, Monk, The Profiler and True Calling. Rooted in feminist cultural studies, historical and sociological analysis, television and film theory and work on the detective genre, this investigation establishes common frames, or filters, through which the television sleuth genre represents intuition and the gendered experience of knowledge. Women with intuition are depicted as unstable, dangerous and mentally ill. Though framed similarly, intuitive men have more freedom.
