Bonos Giant Orange Bono’s Giant Orange The Bonos (related to the late Sonny Bono - Cher's husband) moved to Fontana in the 1920s and grew grapes there. Trying to make a living during the Great Depression in the 1930s, Bono opened a fruit stand and sold orange juice. During the travel boom that followed World War II, they quenched the thirst of many Route 66 travelers. But, during the 1950s when the new freeway network was built, the Bonos turned their business into a delicatessen. Giant Orange The "giant orange" was not always at its present site at Bono's. It was moved there several years ago when the Fontana Historical Society (of which John Bono was president) asked him to place it in the parking lot to preserve it. The Giant Orange (6.5 ft. - 2 m. tall) was built with a wood framework covered with stucco by Mr. DeVries. His fruit stand was located three miles to the east of Bono's. Its bright orange color caught potential customers' eyes from afar. After the stand closed it was donated in 1993 to the Historical Society, who placed it at the local Walmart, but had to move it, and Bono let them place it in his parking lot. Materials: • California Giant Orange Coloring Sheet • Crayons • Markers • Coloring Pencils • Scissors • Glue Instructions: Students’ will google “Bono’s Giant Orange” to see what it looks like, if possible take a drive down foothill to see where it resides on Route 66. Students will color the giant orange drawing attached, cut it out, and place it on the refrigerator as an artifact of history. Modifications: Students can draw their very own collage of oranges to represent Bono’s. .

  • DEPICTIONS of CHASTITY: VIRTUE MADE VISIBLE Susan L'engle In
    DEPICTIONS OF CHASTITY: VIRTUE MADE VISIBLE Susan L’Engle In 1969 a daughter was born to Cher and Sonny Bono. They named her Chastity, an uncommon and burdensome name for a child to bear in this time and place. The negative resonance of this name still prevails, clearly articulated in a 1996 interview with Chastity Bono, where the reporter commented: “When she was born in 1969, Chastity Bono got stuck with that name forever. ‘Not that many people call me Chastity anyway,’ she says. She prefers Chas. Hell, wouldn’t you?”1 Today in the twenty-fi rst century we all have personal takes on the meaning of the word chastity and its relevance to our individual lives, shaped by our upbringing and education and supplemented by input from various media. In the Middle Ages, however, chastity was an all- pervading and multivalent concept that regulated the lives of lay men and women, and clergy alike. The ideals of chastity were expressed verbally by churchmen, theologians, philosophers, poets, and heads of family—and recorded in sermons, Saints’ Lives, advice manuals for rulers, courtesy books, and poems of courtly romance. For many of these texts, artists created images and compositions to illustrate and reinforce the verbal discourse, and it is these visual manifestations that will be analyzed and discussed in this project. As a medievalist I am interested in the various ramifi cations of chas- tity within the strata of medieval society; as an art historian, I want to explore how the notion of chastity can be represented visually, and what circumstances provoke its illustration.

Ninety-two women were initially sworn in to the 112th Congress, two women Democratic House Members have since resigned, and four others have been elected. This number (94) is lower than the record number of 95 women who were initially elected to the 111th Congress. The first woman elected to Congress was Representative Jeannette Rankin (R-MT, 1917-1919, 1941-1943). The first woman to serve in the Senate was Rebecca Latimer Felton (D-GA). She was appointed in 1922 and served for only one day. A total of 278 women have served in Congress, 178 Democrats and 100 Republicans. Of these women, 239 (153 Democrats, 86 Republicans) have served only in the House of Representatives; 31 (19 Democrats, 12 Republicans) have served only in the Senate; and 8 (6 Democrats, 2 Republicans) have served in both houses. These figures include one non-voting Delegate each from Guam, Hawaii, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Currently serving Senator Barbara Mikulski (D-MD) holds the record for length of service by a woman in Congress with 35 years (10 of which were spent in the House).

  • Media and Gender: How Has the Story of Chaz Bono Impacted Mediaâ•Žs
    Running Head: TRANSGENDER MEDIA PORTRAYAL 1 Media and gender: How has the story of Chaz Bono impacted media’s portrayal of transgender people? Scott A. Eldredge Iveta Imre University of Tennessee College of Communication & Information TRANSGENDER MEDIA PORTRAYAL 2 Abstract The coverage of transgender issues in serious media is relatively new and has been on the rise. In fact, the amount of stories covering this issue on the major networks and cable news programs in the United States nearly doubled in 2007 compared to 2006 (Hollar, 2007). Despite the fact that this topic is becoming less taboo, and is more frequently treated as socially and politically important, the coverage has still been predominately sensationalistic. For example, the controversy surrounding the pregnancy of a transgender male, Thomas Beatie, in 2008 was headline news for months, while the first-ever congressional hearing on transgender issues and the beating of a transgender woman in Memphis were barely mentioned (Kalter, 2008). In addition, research has shown that the coverage of transgender issues has been at times highly offensive. The mainstream media tends to publish stories that feature transgender people involved in crime or scandal. Some news outlets, such as The New York Post and New York Daily News often feature headlines that refer to transgender people with sensational and dehumanizing terms such as “trannies,” “he-turned-she,” or “transvestite hooker” (Hollar, 2007). Furthermore, the coverage of transgender issues tends to focus on anatomy. The media most often want to describe, define, and explain transgender people, instead of talking about the systematic discrimination they face on a daily basis or their political struggles and victories.
