  • Inclusion on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register and Intention to Designate Under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act - 100 College Street

    Inclusion on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register and Intention to Designate Under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act - 100 College Street

    REPORT FOR ACTION Inclusion on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register and Intention to Designate under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act - 100 College Street Date: August 7, 2020 To: Toronto Preservation Board Toronto and East York Community Council From: Senior Manager, Heritage Planning, Urban Design, City Planning Wards: Ward 11 - University-Rosedale SUMMARY This report recommends that City Council state its intention to designate the property at 100 College Street under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act and include the property on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register. The Banting Institute at 100 College Street, is located on the north side of College Street in Toronto's Discovery District, on the southern edge of the Queen's Park/University of Toronto precinct, opposite the MaRS complex and the former Toronto General Hospital. Following the Nobel-Prize winning discovery of insulin as a life- saving treatment for diabetes in 1921-1922, the Banting Institute was commissioned by the University of Toronto to accommodate the provincially-funded Banting and Best Chair of Medical Research. Named for Major Sir Charles Banting, the five-and-a-half storey, Georgian Revival style building was constructed according to the designs of the renowned architectural firm of Darling of Pearson in 1928-1930. The importance of the historic discovery was recently reiterated in UNESCO's 2013 inscription of the discovery of insulin on its 'Memory of the World Register' as "one of the most significant medical discoveries of the twentieth century and … of incalculable value to the world community."1 Following research and evaluation, it has been determined that the property meets Ontario Regulation 9/06, which sets out the criteria prescribed for municipal designation under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act, for its design/physical, historical/associative and contextual value.

    Bay Area Roots, Risk & Revision FILMS BY LAWRENCE JORDAN Lawrence Jordan In Person Sunday, May 13, 2007 — 7:30 pm — Yerba Buena Center for the Arts I don’t know about alchemy academically, but I am a practicing alchemist in my own way. —Lawrence Jordan Lawrence Jordan has been making films since 1952. He is most widely known for his animated collage films, which Jonas Mekas has described as, “among the most beautiful short films made today. They are surrounded with love and poetry. His content is subtle, his technique is perfect, his personal style unmistakable.” Tonight’s screening sketches out a sampler of Jordan’s films, starting with Trumpit, a 1950s ‘psychodrama’ starring Stan Brakhage, with sound by Christopher Maclaine; Pink Swine, an anti-art dada collage film set to an early Beatles track; Waterlight the first of Jordan’s “personal/poetic documentaries” made in the 1950s aboard a merchant marine freighter during his days as a wandering flâneur; and Winterlight, a visual poem of the Sonoma County winter landscape. Lawrence Jordan’s four most recent films will conclude the night: Enid’s Idyll, Chateau/Poyet, Poet’s Dream, and Blue Skies Beyond the Looking Glass. (Jenn Blaylock) Trumpit (1956) 16mm, b&w, sound, 6 minutes, print from the maker Stan Brakhage stars as the constricted love in this spoof of pseudo-erotic card play. (LUX) Waterlight (1957) 16mm, color, sound, 7 minutes, print from the maker Among the wanderings that began in the 1950s was the filmmaker's 3-year stint in the merchant marine. Waterlight is a night and day impression of the never-constant, ever-changing vast ocean and its companion the sky.
  • Mary the Blessed Virgin

    Mary the Blessed Virgin

    January 1 – Mary the Blessed Virgin Mary is venerated with a special cult, called by St. Thomas Aquinas, hyperdulia, as the holiest of all creatures. The main events of her life are celebrated as liturgical feasts of the universal Church. Traditionally, she was declared the daughter of Sts. Joachim and Anne. Born in Jerusalem, Mary was presented in the Temple and took a vow of virginity. Living in Nazareth, Mary was visited by the archangel Gabriel, who announced to her that she would become the Mother of Jesus, by the Holy Spirit. She became betrothed to St. Joseph and went to visit her cousin, Elizabeth, who was bearing St. John the Baptist. Acknowledged by Elizabeth as the Mother of God, Mary intoned the Magnificat. When Emperor Augustus declared a census throughout the vast Roman Empire, Mary and St. Joseph went to Bethlehem where he was born, as he belonged to the House of David. There Mary gave birth to Jesus and was visited by the Three Kings. Mary and Joseph presented Jesus in the Temple, where St. Simeon rejoiced and Mary received word of sorrows to come later. Warned to flee, St. Joseph and Mary went to Egypt to escape the wrath of King Herod. They remained in Egypt until King Herod died and then returned to Nazareth. Nothing is known of Mary's life during the next years except for a visit to the Temple of Jerusalem, at which time Mary and Joseph sought the young Jesus, who was in the Temple with the learned elders. The first recorded miracle of Jesus was performed at a wedding in Cana, and Mary was instrumental in calling Christ's attention to the need.

    Dinner at Eight CELEBRATING MARIE DRESSLER’S 150Th BIRTHDAY

    SOUVENIR PROGRAM Dinner At Eight CELEBRATING MARIE DRESSLER’S 150th BIRTHDAY from the collection of Marie Dressler Foundation Saturday, September 29, 2018 Best Western Plus Cobourg Inn, Cobourg, Canada MARIE’S 62nd BIRTHDAY SCRAPBOOK November 9, 1933 A STORY WORTH TELLING Almost one hundred and fifty years ago, a little girl named Leila Koerber came into this world here in Cobourg. Who was to know that some sixty plus years later, Leila, now named Marie Dressler, would become an Academy Award winner and the highest grossing movie star in the world for the years 1932 and 1933? While Marie would only spend the earliest years of her life here in Cobourg, she made a lasting impression. Once she arrived on Broadway in the late 1890’s, after almost twenty years of honing her operatic and comedic skills in travelling troupes, people began to notice and fall in love with this not-so-little girl. Although she starred in the first full length silent comedy, “Tillie’s Punctured Romance” in 1914 with a young Charlie Chaplin, her promising silent film career was interrupted by WWI. Afterwards, no one seemed interested in a fifties-something actor. Marie turned to charity work and became known for her social activism, always looking to help women less fortunate than herself. But she was destined to become a movie star. And it happened in 1930, when her friend, Frances Marion, the most successful screenwriter in Hollywood, tailored a star-worthy supporting role for her in “Anna Christie”. This film was a big deal as it was Greta Garbo’s first speaking role.

    Gale Henry Also Known As: "The Elongated Comedienne" Lived: April 15, 1893 - June 6, 1972 Worked as: film actress, producer, scenario writer, theatre actress Worked In: United States by Steve Massa Thought to be the prototype for Popeye’s girlfriend Olive Oyl, Gale Henry was tall and extremely skinny, with large eyes and a sharp nose. Known as “The Elongated Comedienne,” from 1914 to 1933 she entertained audiences with eccentric physical comedy. Like her contemporaries Alice Howell, Mabel Normand, Marie Dressler, and Louise Fazenda, Gale took many bumps and bruises in the name of laughter alongside her male comedian counterparts in an estimated two hundred fifty-eight shorts and features, some of the craziest of which she wrote. Her active female characters bear comparison with Pearl White and Helen Holmes, the “serial queens” of the 1910s, and she often spoofed the cliff-hanger genre in which they appeared. Henry’s performing style could be very broad, but she also had a gift for small, insightful gestures that could bring a moment of pathos and feeling into the knockabout. She often played put-upon slavies, but her unconventional looks also made her perfect as a lovelorn spinster, an overbearing wife, or a burlesque country girl. She wore a wide-brimmed hat, a tight, old-fashioned button-up blouse, a long plaid or checkered skirt, and clunky high-top shoes. The overall look had a feel of L. Frank Baum’s Scarecrow of Oz—as if she were put together from odd, mismatching parts. After growing up on a ranch in Bear Valley, California, Gale Henry began her stage career with the Temple Opera Company.
