300 Posts - Another look back
Now that I'm down to one post a week, it looks like I'll only be doing one of these every couple of years; I actually really like doing these posts, as they give a nice snapshot of what's happening on Lead Capes. If you have the time, click the "ALL OF THEM" tab and scroll through, it's a good look at where the blog has been and how things have changed. Enough nostalgia, on with the show!

Tupelo Park and Buffalo Zoo
2272 North Coley Road • Tupelo, MS 38803
It's the ULTIMATE FAMILY ADVENTURE! And it is ONLY at the Tupelo Buffalo Park and Zoo!
Some of our Exotic Animals include:
Hedgehog Hedgehogs have a coat of stiff, sharp spines. If attacked they will curl into a prickly and unappetizing ball that deters most predators. They usually sleep in this position during the day and awaken to search for food at night.
- Kangaroos A kangaroo can survive on very little water; sometimes going for many weeks without it - most of the moisture they need is gained from their food - grass, young shoots and leaves from certain trees.
- Wallabies A male wallaby is called a boomer, and a female is called a flyer. A young is called a joey.
- "Oliver & Patty" the White-faced Capuchins The Capuchin Monkey's name was inspired from the monkey's beautiful coloring. The Capuchin Monkey's coloring closely resembles the color of the cowls worn by the Franciscan Capuchin Catholic Friars. Their bodies, including the arms, legs and tail are black or dark brown while the face and upper body including the the monkey's throat and chest area is white. The Capuchin Monkey's head is crowned with a black area that looks like a cap. The Capuchin Monkey's beautiful colors are quite attractive and make this animal very attractive .
- "Bubba" the Java Macque Javas' are the smaller of the macaques with females weighing 10lbs-13lbs and about 20" in height. Males are around 18lbs-20lbs and 25" in height. Their tails are about as long as their body length. Javas' hair coloring varies from gray or dark brown to reddish or yellow when they are adults. Babies are born black.
- "Kiki" the African Lion African lions are born blind and do not open their eyes for a few weeks. They can run up to 50 miles per hour but only for a short distance.
- "Bandit" the Black Bear Although they are carnivores, Black Bears eat very little meat. Instead, they live on grasses and other plants in spring, fruits and berries in summer, and nuts and acorns in fall. Black Bears head for a den in October and sleep much of the winter but they do not enter the deep phase of true hibernation .
- "Gypsy" the Cougar A cougar can jump upward 18 feet from a sitting position. They can leap up to 40 feet horizontally. Cougars cannot roar like a lion, but they can make calls like a human scream. Kittens are born with their eyes closed like the domestic cat. Their baby-blue eyes open at around two weeks and change to greenish-yellow in about 16-months.
- "Sal" the Bengal Tiger (Will be Greatly Missed)
Bengal tigers have white spots, called "flashes" on the back of their ears. These may be used to signal aggression, when the tiger swivels and flattens his ears in a confrontation. The mighty roar of a Bengal can be heard up to two miles away. When tigers hunt, they catch prey large enough to last for several meals.
- "Tall Boy & Patches" our Giraffes ( they'll eat out of your hands! ) A giraffe's heart weighs an incredible 24 pounds. In one minute, the heart of a giraffe can pump 160 gallons of blood. A full grown giraffe's neck can weigh as much as 500 pounds. They can clean their ears with a 21-inch tongue!
- "Joe" the Camel Camels do not store water in their humps… the hump is actually a reservoir of fatty tissue… when this tissue is metabolized, it acts as a source of energy, and yields more than 1 gallon of water for each 1 gallon of fat that is converted… their kidneys and intestine are able to hold water… because of this ability, the camel can live in very dry and hot climates and go without water for long periods of time.
- "Zeke, Zack, Zoie & Zelda" the Zebras Zebras can run up to 40 miles per hour and baby zebras can run an hour after they are born! Not only can you tell what type of zebra it is by its stripes, but no zebra has exactly the same stripes.
- "Cinderella & Cruella" the Llamas The llama can spit a distance of 10 feet or more to tell other llamas to stay away! Llamas are members of the camel (camelid) family. An average llama has a weight of 375 pounds.
- Fallow Deer This deer has a spotted coat and flat tipped antlers. Female fallow deer live in herds, but the adult males live alone. Each female gives birth to one fawn in early summer. Though the fawn can stand soon after birth it spends most of the time safely out of sight until several weeks old.
- "Ricardo" the Burmese Pythons When young Burmese Pythons spend much of their time in the trees. When they mature and their size and weight make tree climbing unwieldy, they transition to mainly ground-dwelling. They are also excellent swimmers, and can stay submerged for up to 30 minutes before surfacing for air.
- Coatimundi
Primarily omnivorous, coatis usually seek out fruits and invertebrates. Coatis eat palms, eggs, larval beetles, scorpions, centipedes, spiders, ants, termites, lizards, small mammals, rodents, and carrion when it is available. They infrequently take chickens.
- Exotic Birds
- Emus Emus live in small mobs and feast on a simple diet of grasses, seeds, fruit, flowers and small insects. They drink water regularly, at least once a day in winter and twice a day in summer and sometimes drink up to four gallons a day. Therefore they can usually be found within walking distance of water. When drinking they can take up to 70 mouthfuls of water and they lift their head after each one.
- Yaks Yaks possess great lung capacity so they can absorb more oxygen. Their digestive system is also designed to keep them warm.
- African Turtles Louie, Asteroid and Turtlie these were named by Elizah Thompson. Thank you Elizah for giving our turtles their names.
- Water Buffalo The size of a water buffalo measures to about 5-6 feet shoulder height. On an average, an adult water buffalo weighs about 1100-2000 pounds. The main distinguishing features between of a male water buffalo are presence of deep ridges on the body and long backward curving, crescent shaped horns.
Petting Zoo
Our Petting zoo has a variety of different animals. With turkeys, pygmy goats, sheep, pot bellied pigs, "Lucy" the miniature cow, "Ellie" the fallow deer, and some miniature horses. You can even hand-feed our giraffes, "Tall Boy" and "Patches". Don't forget your feed bags for only $1.00 at the gift shop! These are only a few of the animals that we have in our petting zoo.
We also have other animals that can be seen on your walk through the zoo, but cannot be touched. Bandit the Black Bear, Kiki the African Lion, Ozzie the Ball Python, Oliver the Capuchin Monkey, and Gypsy the Cougar are some of our more popular animals for viewing.

"This community has a strong history of recognizing and appreciating those who have served in the military," said Rex Sanderson of American Legion Post No. 95. "We feel it is important to remember those who served and especially remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice."
Children are encouraged to dress up their bikes, trikes, wagons, or other mode of transportation in red, white, and blue and participate in the annual parade, as well.

A dramatic scene unfolded off the coast of Argentina this weekend when naval authorities caught a Chinese vessel illegally fishing in their waters. They pursued, even firing on the vessel:
As you can see, the authorities announce their intention to fire at the ship, and when the ship doesn't respond they fire warning shots at the vessel. This may seem like an extreme step to take, but illegal fishing is a serious problem — especially in Argentina.
The seas around Argentina have recently become a hotspot for illegal fishing. This is partly because of the richness of marine life that lives there. Every day, somewhere between 200 and 500 fishing vessels from countries like China and South Korea set up shop here. This practice is called IUU, or illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing.
So what's the issue? Surely there are more fish in the sea than fishing vessels, right? If fishing practices continue as they are, then the meaning of that phrase might change completely.
These fishing boats use unsustainable fishing practices that cause a range of problems — they could net in sea turtles or sharks, they take too many fish without letting the area recover, they dump waste into the ocean, etc. These habits cause worldwide damage to marine life and ocean health.
There is also a hidden problem lurking behind IUU. Because these vessels move around under the radar and internationally, they are hotspots for human trafficking, drug dealing and arms trading. So while it's a big issue for the ocean, it's an even bigger issue for many other reasons.
Shooting warning shots at that fishing vessel probably seems a lot more reasonable now! Argentina is working to crack down on the amount of fishing vessels in their waters and chase them away as they do in this video with a range of aggressive tactics. But until the nations that are allowing (and even encouraging) vessels to overfish this area also work on the issue, it will continue to be a problem.

ANTIBES, France - Daimler-Chrysler expects to double its sales in the luxury coupe class with the launch this month of the new Mercedes-Benz CL.
Jurgen Hubbert, D/C management board member for Mercedes-Benz passenger cars, said the new CL was much more than a coupe body on an S-class platform - a criticism sometimes leveled at the last CL.
'We wanted to do more than just cut the roof line off the S-class,' Hubbert said. 'The car makes its own statement.'
The launch of the new CL 500 and CL 600 models marks Mercedes-Benz's re-entry into the top end of the luxury coupe segment.
For the first time, big money has been spent on the car. The technical department had a budget of DM500 million (euro 253 million). Another DM150 million was invested in new tooling and machinery. All body parts are unique to the CL.
'The CL features lightweight construction, which contributes to a 20 percent improvement in fuel economy,' said Hubbert. Fuel consumption is 13.4-liters per 100km for the CL 500; slightly less for the CL 600.
The new CL weighs between 1790-1880kg, about 340kg lighter than its predecessor. It uses a host of lightweight materials, including aluminum, magnesium, plastic and high-strength steel.
Several innovative features help save further weight. The trunk lid is made of fiber-reinforced plastic. Thanks to this material, the aerials for the phone and navigation system can be built invisibly into the lid.
The CL's doors are made from an alloy-magnesium compound. They are 34 percent lighter than the sheet steel doors of the outgoing model.
'With the CL, we have taken driving dynamics a further step forward with the world premiere of active body control,' said Hubbert. 'By countering body pitch, bounce and roll, this system gives the car superb, sporty handling. It also offers a considerable improvement in ride comfort.'
ABC is standard on the CL and will be available as an option on the S-class from January 2000.
Both the CL 500 and CL 600 deliver impressive performance data. Top speed is, as with all Mercedes-Benz cars, limited to 250kph. But the CL 600 can sprint from 0-100kph in 6.1 seconds. The CL 500 is not far behind at 6.5 seconds. An AMG version will follow in mid-2000.
'We have invested a considerable amount of money in the new CL, much more than the previous-generation car,' said Hubbert.
'Given its technical features and visual qualities, our ambitions for the new model have risen significantly,' he said. 'We want to double sales over the CL's life span and gain a 30 percent market share at the top end of the luxury segment.'
The CL's expected life span is about eight years. Sales of between 50,000-60,000 are planned during this period. Forecasts say 80 percent of customers will opt for the CL 500.
Nine thousand cars will be built in the first full year of production. Germany will receive 4,000 units, and the USA almost 3,000. The previous-generation CL sold 26,000 units.
Mercedes-Benz regards the Aston Martin range, Jaguar's XK models and the Porsche 911 as competitors. 'We are emphasizing the sporty aspects of the CL,' said Joachim Schmidt, Mercedes-Benz's head of sales and marketing.

And a Chance to Donate to the Fisher House Foundation
In this tender, beautiful letter to his daughters, President Barack Obama has written a moving tribute to thirteen groundbreaking Americans and the ideals that have shaped our nation. From the artistry of Georgia O'Keeffe, to the courage of Jackie Robinson, to the patriotism of George Washington, President Obama sees the traits of these heroes within his own children, and within all of America's children.
Breathtaking, evocative illustrations by award-winning artist Loren Long at once capture the personalities and achievements of these great Americans and the innocence and promise of childhood.
This beautiful book celebrates the characteristics that unite all Americans, from our nation's founders to generations to come. It is about the potential within each of us to pursue our dreams and forge our own paths. It is a treasure to cherish with your family forever.
Barack Obama is the forty-fourth president of the United States. Born in Hawaii to a mother from Kansas and a father from Kenya, he himself is now the father of two daughters, Malia and Sasha. It was spending time with them that inspired him to write Of Thee I Sing.

If you're afraid to show your legs because you've got varicose veins, it's time to talk to your doctor about sclerotherapy. During sclerotherapy treatment, chemicals are injected into your varicose veins, which causes the veins to shrink. After the procedure, your veins will no longer be apparent, which means you'll be able to show off your legs again. In most cases, sclerotherapy is a minimally-invasive procedure, which means you won't need to stay in the hospital for too long. However, you will need to take some extra care once you get home. Here are four steps you'll need to take while you're recovering from sclerotherapy.
You'll Need to Watch for Bleeding
When you go home, you'll have medical dressings on your legs. You'll need to pay close attention to those dressings since bleeding can occur. If you notice bleeding, the first thing you should do is lay back and prop your legs up for a few minutes. If the bleeding doesn't stop, you'll want to apply pressure for several minutes. If the bleeding has still not stopped, you'll need to contact your doctor.
You'll Need to Wear Compression Stockings
Following the procedure, your doctor will have you wear compression stockings for the first few days. The compression stockings will help reduce swelling, ensure proper circulation, and prevent the varicose veins from returning. You'll need to leave your stockings on until your doctor gives you the go-ahead to remove them. Removing them too soon could cause complications and interfere with the healing process.
You'll Need to Take Care with Your Legs
Once you get home, you'll need to be careful with your legs. They're going to be tender, and moving them the wrong way can cause problems. During the recovery, you should avoid crossing your legs, stooping, or squatting. It's also important that you don't sit or stand in one position for too long. If you feel your legs begin to tingle, it's a good idea to change positions.
You'll Need to Get Up and Walk
After the bandages have been removed, you'll want to walk around a bit. Begin by slowly walking around the house a few times a day. Once the compression stockings are off, go ahead and head outside for some leisurely walks. Walking will help speed up the healing process, alleviate the swelling, and reduce the bruising that can accompany sclerotherapy.
If you're going to be undergoing sclerotherapy for your varicose veins, use the tips provided here to help make your recovery time more comfortable. It's also important that you follow your doctor's after-care instructions. Contact a provider, like Varicure Vein Center, for more help.Share

Configuring Layer 2 Multicast
When a CE series switch acts as a Layer 2 switch, it broadcasts all multicast packets passing through it in a broadcast domain by default. Therefore, all hosts in the same broadcast domain receive the multicast packets, regardless of whether they are group members. This causes a waste of network bandwidth and brings security risks.
This problem can be solved by configuring IGMP snooping on the Layer 2 multicast switch. With IGMP snooping configured, the switch listens to and analyzes IGMP packets exchanged between multicast users and the upstream router, and creates Layer 2 multicast forwarding entries based on IGMP packet information. Multicast data packets are then forwarded based on the Layer 2 multicast forwarding entries, instead of being broadcast on the Layer 2 network.
# Configure IGMP snooping in VLAN 10.
<HUAWEI> system-view [~HUAWEI] igmp snooping enable //Enable IGMP snooping globally. [*HUAWEI] vlan 10 [*HUAWEI-vlan10] igmp snooping enable //Enable IGMP snooping in the VLAN (broadcast domain). [*HUAWEI-vlan10] commit

Augustine, despite being the subject of a rash of publications recently, does not yet receive the attention he deserves in the classroom. Consequently this addition to the Cambridge Texts in the History of Philosophy series is welcome as a means of bringing more students into contact with his thought.
Matthews' edition contains Books 8-15 of the De Trinitate (DT), which he describes as the first treatise on the philosophy of mind in the modern sense of "mind." The translation is of Stephen McKenna (1963),[[1]] slightly revised. It includes a 29 page introduction and some textual notes. The introductory remarks address eleven philosophical themes: Faith in Search of Understanding, The Problem of Other Minds, Mental Trinities, Mental Language, Mind-Body Dualism, Sense Perception, The Doctrine of Illumination, Happiness, Language Learning, Divine Simplicity, and Scepticism and the Cogito.
Matthews offers his volume as a more philosophical edition and a more literal translation of the text than that of Edmund Hill (newly translated, with notes and commentary, in 1991).[[2]] While it is true that McKenna's translation has the merit of sometimes being closer to the Latin than Hill's, it contains errors and awkwardness which have not always been corrected by Matthews. On the philosophical side, Matthews' volume is useful for alerting students to the various "isms" and standard topics that they may come across in secondary work on Augustine, and for pointing out real or apparent similarities between Augustine and later writers (both Medieval and Modern). What readers will generally not find in this volume is clear evidence of deep lexicological work, or of intimate familiarity with Augustine's philosophical context (especially Plotinian metaphysics and Stoic epistemology).
Matthews does credit Augustine with brilliance (x), but on the whole the book tends to present him as a figure who is important because of similarities to Descartes, Aquinas, Maimonides, etc., rather than a philosopher of late antiquity important in his own right. While it is useful for students to compare central figures in the history of philosophy, the presentation could have the effect of leading some readers to erroneously assume that Augustine's position was exactly the same as later philosophers', or that he was asking the same questions. For instance, Augustine's "concept of mind" is classified as "Cartesian" (xxi), and Augustine is said to have "raised the problem of other minds" (xiv). With regard to the latter, it would have been helpful to point out that Augustine did not actually consider the existence of other minds "problematic" in the way that Cartesian philosophers have. Nonetheless, Matthews rightly calls attention to Descartes' apparent remissness in failing to acknowledge the influence of Augustine upon his cogito argument (xxviii). And by pointing out that Augustine is not a "representationalist" in perception (xxi), he implicitly draws an important contrast with Descartes' position at e.g. Meditations 2.29.
Secondary literature on Augustine determines the focus of the introduction especially in the case of the so-called "Doctrine of Illumination." This phrase apparently passed into English secondary literature from French (or Latin) work of the early twentieth-century.[[3]] Unfortunately it is not very useful, especially for philosophy students approaching the text for the first time. These readers will want to know what philosophical issue is at stake, and the illumination metaphor will be unfamiliar to them. "Augustine's account of innate ideas" would be much less cryptic. Phraseology aside, Matthews' explanation could be more precise (What is meant by "direct" and "something like" in the phrase, "we have direct access to something like the Platonic Form of justice"(xxii)?). It also includes Malebranche's mistaken reading, according to which Augustine made the error of reasoning that "we see some of these eternal, immutable truths . . . therefore we see God" (xxix). Augustine says repeatedly in Books 8-15 of the DT that "we certainly do not yet see God" as such when we see an immutable Form; what we see is a Form "in" God (e.g. DT 8.4.6; 9.1.1; 9.7.12).
Augustine's Platonism could have received more attention in this volume. His arguments for the existence of transcendent Forms are not commented on in the notes or introduction; likewise, the fact that the Forms are associated with God goes unexplained (e.g. 8-9, 17, 19-21). The lack of clarity in the translation of some of these passages (and the omission of such tools as capitalization for "form" when Augustine is speaking of transcendent standards of judgment) could give the impression that McKenna himself did not fully understand Augustine's metaphysics, and that Matthews has not done enough to rectify the situation. Likewise, Plotinian echoes in Augustine's text[[4]] could be more clearly brought out in the translation; for example, it omits Augustine's "there" (ibi) from a passage referring to the realm of the Forms (p. 5, DT 8.1.2; cf. e.g. Enn. 5.9.6, 5.9.10, 6.7.15, 6.7.16).
Greater attention to the epistemological context might have led to more accurate word choices for notitia and noscere. These are always rendered "knowledge"/"to know", despite the fact that notitia, like phantasia, is often used by Augustine for subjective concept/impression of an object, [[5]] which may or may not fully correspond to the object itself. To refer more specifically to accurate impressions, he uses verax notitia or secundum speciem notitia, species here meaning the standard against which one's impressions are to be measured. Thus Augustine's assertion, "Sed omnis secundum speciem notitia similis est ei rei quam novit" (DT 9.10.16) means every impression that corresponds to reality is similar to the thing of which it is an impression (i.e. that which it represents/"images"). Augustine is stating a truism, and is working within the framework of the so-called "correspondence theory of truth" which he clearly assumes. Matthews has, "But all knowledge according to the form [of what is known] is similar to that which it knows" (37). He has improved upon McKenna by choosing "form" for species, but as there is no note explaining what "form" means in this sort of case, and as the translation implies a distinction between two different kinds of knowledge (that "according to the form" and that which is not) without elucidating the distinction, the reader is left at a loss. McKenna and Hill are no better in this regard [[6]]; thus Matthews is in line with earlier authoritative versions in English. But he could have surpassed these translations with the recognition that Augustine was here and elsewhere exhibiting the influence of the epistemology outlined at e.g. Acad. 1.40 (a two-step process of receipt of an impression, and subsequent judgment that the impression does or does not accurately represent the object it purports to represent).
Other noteworthy lexical/conceptual features include the use of "conscious self" or "seat of human consciousness" for mens (x, xvi, 7 n. 8). Here Matthews differs from Hill, who ascribes this meaning to animus (op. cit., 260-1). We also find a misleading translation of DT 9.12.18 (apparently originating with Arthur Haddan (1887) [[7]] and followed by McKenna and Matthews). It presents a distinction between "love" (amor) and "seeking" (appetitus inveniendi), whereas Augustine intends a distinction between two different kinds of "love," one of which is "seeking" (or more literally, the impulse to discover). Hill's translation has got this right.
The notes to the text sometimes give the Latin for certain phrases or terms; this can be useful for readers who are already familiar with the Latin of late antiquity. Yet generally the notes could be more informative given that the Cambridge series is intended for students. At times the reader is told what the Latin is for an English word, but is not told why this information is important (e.g. 65, 105). In other places notes give the same Latin word for various English terms, without explaining why its translation is changing though its role in the various passages seems to be the same (e.g. 61, 95). Elsewhere terms are left untranslated and unexplained (e.g. "form and species" for forma et species, 69).
Finally, the accuracy and smoothness of the translation could be improved upon in a few details. On p. 10, McKenna's error in translating scire[[8]] as "to love" is faithfully reproduced by Matthews. Elsewhere Matthews supplements McKenna's translation by inserting brackets in which he seems to misidentify the antecedents of Augustine's illa at DT 9.4.6, resulting in a distortion of the meaning (29).[[9]] If it is not a simple typo, on p. 37 it is Matthews' deviation from McKenna which yields a sentence fragment.[[10]]
Matthews and Cambridgehave done a service to academia by undertaking a new edition of the most philosophically interesting section of Augustine's De Trinitate. This volume will be useful especially for orienting readers to topics found in secondary literature on the DT, and alerting them to Medieval and Modern treatments of certain philosophical themes in Augustine's treatise. However, readers may wish to supplement their reading of this edition with that of Hill, and with background reading of (or at least about) Augustine and his philosophical sources. In fact, some relevant titles are helpfully provided by Matthews under the heading "Further Reading" (xxxii).

[[3]] In 1931, Gilson put the phrase "doctrine augustinienne de l'illumination divine" into quotation marks and said Augustine's theory was commonly so-called (Introduction a L'Etude de Saint Augustin [Paris: Librarie Philosophique J. Vrin], 103); although it seems to have become very common only after Gilson's book. In 1934 we have R. Jolivet's Dieu Soleil des Esprits, ou La Doctrine Augustinienne de L'Illumination (Paris: Desclee de Brouwer), in 1952 R. Allers' "St. Augustine's Doctrine on Illumination" (Fransiscan Studies 12, 27-46). The earliest use of this phrase I have seen is in 1903, by E. Portalie: "La doctrine d'Augustin est donc, d'apres nous, la theorie . . . de illumination divine des intelligences" (Dictionnaire de Theologie Catholique I, col. 2336). It does not occur e.g. in A. Lepidi, Examen Philosophico-Theologicum de Ontologismo (Louvain: 1874), 192-224. Writing in 1921, C. Boyer does not use the phrase (La Idee de Verite dans la Philosophie de Saint Augustin [Paris: 1921], 164ff.), but he does in 1925 ("Autour de l'illumination augustinienne" [Gregorianum 6], 449-453; see 453 n. 2: "une doctrine . . . de l'illumination divine"). It sometimes occurs in secondary work in Latin in the 1920's (e.g. I. Sestili once uses "doctrinam Augustini de illuminatione" in Utrum Deus Moveat Immediate Intellectum Creatum, Ia, q. 105, a. 3 (Xenia Thomistica II [1925], 155-185); J. Sestili once uses the phrase "de illuminatione doctrinam" in "Thomae Aquinatis cum Augustino de illuminatione concordia" [Divus Thomas 31 (1928)], 50-82). The preceding sample is not intended to be a complete list, but a starting-point for those interested in the genealogy of the phrase used by Matthews. As noted by Owens, the phrase divina illuminatio sometimes occurs in Roger Bacon and Bonaventure (J. Owens, "Faith, Ideas, Illumination and Experience" in The Cambridge History of Later Medieval Philosophy [Cambridge, 1982], 442 n. 5). Those interested more generally in the question may also consult e.g. C. Schuetzinger (The German Controversy on St. Augustine's Illumination Theory [New York: Pageant Press, 1960]) for the German bibliography, and B. Bubacz, St. Augustine's Theory of Knowledge (New York: Edwin Mellon, 1981). For a clear Medieval discussion of Augustine's statements, see Bonaventure, Quaestiones Disputatae de Scientia Christi, Q. 4.

[[5]] cf. e.g. notitia est imago, DT 9.11.16.
[[6]] Both always translate notitia/noscere as "knowledge"/"to know", and McKenna simply leaves species as an untranslated technical term (without explaining its meaning), whereas Hill's translation of secundum speciem notitia as "positive knowledge of quality" exhibits that freedom which Matthews remarks upon, and is also unclear. (Perhaps Hill means, "all knowledge of positive quality" (as opposed to "knowledge of privation," as in the following lines of his translation); but even so, clarity would be lacking.)

Transient rentals causing a stir
The proliferation of short-term vacation rentals in Sonoma Valley and other parts of unincorporated Sonoma County has given rise to an increased number of neighbor complaints in residential areas, prompting increased scrutiny by county officials.
Ben Neuman, Code Enforcement Manager for the countys Permit and Resource Management Department, said that his department has received an increase in general complaints about vacation rentals impact on neighborhoods, such as increased noise, garbage and parking problems. But, said Neuman, there is currently little in county codes that deal with the operations of transient rentals out of single-family residences.
Its a large industry that is substantially not regulated in unincorporated Sonoma County, said Neuman,
Recently, though, code enforcement officials have increased their ability to deal with what they say are rental properties that are frequently used by renters for large gatherings of people, parties and events.
In September, two Sonoma Valley property owners were cited and fined for their renters having unlawful events, one property on Kenilworth Rd. in Kenwood, and one on Sobre Vista Rd., off of Arnold Dr., just south of Glen Ellen. Earlier this year the two property owners had been told by Code Enforcement that large gatherings of 35 people or more were prohibited.
Neighbors of both properties say that they have had numerous problems, including noise and traffic all hours of the night, causing a fundamental change in the character of their neighborhoods.
The Kenilworth Rd. property is listed on a vacation rental website as Solisombra, a luxury hideaway that sleeps up to 12, and during high season charges $1,400 per night with a four-night minimum.
Richard Koretz, a Kenilworth Rd. neighbor, said party problems at the property compelled him to install a security camera so that that he could provide evidence to Code Enforcement of the number of people entering the property.
In May, video shows fifty cars of teenagers entering the property, with more cars forced to park outside along one-lane Kenilworth Rd. As they wait to enter the gated property, teens are seen drinking and flicking cigarette butts into the brush. In the September incident for which the property owner was fined, 10-12 cars can be seen entering the property, along with small tour buses and a limousine.
The property owner, San Francisco resident William Triggs, said that almost all of his renters follow the rules and act as good neighbors. When he found out about what was going on at the May teenage party, Triggs said he drove up from San Francisco right away and had them thrown off the property.
Speaking of vacation rentals in general, Triggs said that, My experience is that the vast majority of the landlords are responsible people acting in good faith, and that many of the potential issues could be nipped in the bud by landlords and neighbors working together.
Over on Sobre Vista Rd., neighbors of this rural residential neighborhood say that there are two problem vacation rental properties, one of which was cited for a Sept. 7 event that was determined to have 35 or more people. The property is the former Spreckels family estate and is advertised online as being able to sleep up to 20, with rental fees ranging from $1,000 to $2,900 a night.
John Curotto, a neighbor, said the property is basically functioning like a commercial hotel in a residential area.
They dont respect the environment or the neighborhood, said Curotto, who, along with other neighbors, has complained about the noise and traffic associated with the property.
Kelly Connors, one of the owners of the cited property, said he is being proactive and responding to the county requirements regarding events. Kelly said he will be installing noise measuring devices to measure noise against allowable standards.
My job is to make sure people are keeping it down, and keeping it quiet, said Connors.
It was Curotto and his neighbors who first went to Supervisor Valerie Brown to see if there could be some way to address the problem of vacation rentals having events. The result was a resolution last February from the countys Board of Zoning Adjustments (BZA) saying that permits would be required if residential properties used as vacation rentals plan on having an event of 35 or more people.
Also, there is increased communication and coordination between the Sonoma County Sheriffs deputies and Code Enforcement regarding vacation rentals having parties. It is usually the deputies that are first called out to a site after a complaint, and Code Enforcement depends on their reports to determine if there are violations or not.
Brown said that she wants to see if the recent citations and fines by the county are effective before looking at further steps for dealing with vacation rentals.
People have a right to a rural existence, said Brown, And should have an expectation that rentals should not take over that rural existence.
For one thing, Brown said, the county needs to develop a noise ordinance, which could provide another tool for Code Enforcement.
Though the county essentially does not regulate vacation rentals, they do collect a Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) of nine percent of the rate charged each guest. Owners of vacation rentals are supposed to register with the county and pay TOT funds quarterly.
The county enjoys significant revenue from single-family residences in unincorporated areas used as transient rentals, $1.9 million in fiscal year 2006-2007, and $2.2 million in fiscal year 2007-2008.
According to the Sonoma County Auditor-Controller-Treasurer-Tax Collector office, there are a total of 1,038 registered residences used as vacation rentals, the vast majority in Supervisorial District Five which includes Guerneville and Bodega Bay.
In Supervisorial District 1, which includes Sonoma Valley, there are 144 registered residences.
County finance officials recognize, from perusing online the large numbers of vacation rental listings, their numbers do not reflect many rentals that are not registered. But officials find it difficult to bring them into TOT compliance since listings do not show addresses, just general locations.
While Koretz and Curotto appreciate the recent enforcement on transient rentals having events, they feel the fines arent enough of a hammer, and that the county should go farther, perhaps even requiring permits and/or developing a specific vacation rental ordinance.
Other destination areas like Sonoma County handle the issue of vacation rentals differently.
The City of Sonoma, for example, has a specific ordinance for vacation rentals. The ordinance allows rentals in certain zoning areas, and requires a business license and a use permit.
Napa County essentially forbids vacation rentals in residential areas, and is currently in the process of improving their zoning ordinance to address illegal vacation rentals. They are also beefing up code enforcement and initiating a public outreach campaign to let home-owners know its illegal to rent their homes out for less than 30 days.
The City of Napa, in response to increasing complaints about vacation rentals in residentially zoned districts, is currently drafting new rules that will soon be put before the Napa City Council.
Tourist areas across California, such as Lake Tahoe, San Luis Obispo County, and Carmel, also have specific rules dealing with vacation rentals.
Whats Sonoma County waiting for? asked Koretz.

Guarino Guarini, "S. Maria della Divina Providenza di Lisbona," engraved by Giovanni Abbiati (loose sheet), here dated c. 1680.
Source: Biblioteca Nacional de Portugal, E. 1235 V.
Guarino Guarini's intention to publish an architectural treatise dates back at least to 1666, during his time in Paris. In that year, Giuseppe Silos listed an Architetturae arte Commentaria among the Theatine's projected publications in a bio-bibliography. The enterprise seems to have gotten underway only in the late 1670s as Guarini began to prepare the plates for the treatise together with a team of engravers based in Turin and Modena. At Guarini's death in 1683 the manuscript for the text remained unfinished and in disarray, as explained in the introduction to the 1686 publication of a selection of the plates without any text, the Dissegni d'architettura civile, et ecclesiastica. The entire treatise was published only a half-century later as Guarini's Architettura civile (Turin: Mairesse, 1737) after the young Bernardo Antonio Vittone edited the MS and – perhaps – commissioned some additional plates.
Understanding the genesis of the treatise, as well as dating its text and plates to particular periods during Guarini's lifetime or after his death, therefore rely on a variety of internal and external evidence that establishes dates ante quem or post quem: mentions or representations of buildings known to date to certain years, a handful of preparatory drawings for the plates, other related drawings (or drawing copies), and a few dates engraved directly on the plates.
Plates in both the 1686 and 1737 editions fall into two groups – text illustrations, or project presentation plates reproducing Guarini's building designs, whether executed or unexecuted. The project plates differed slightly in the two editions, with some of the dedicatory inscriptions and engravers' names obliterated for the 1737 publication. This yielded two states of each project plate, as illustrated below on the example of the section for Guarini's unexecuted Lisbon church, plate number 18 among the projects in both editions (click for larger images).
1686 Edition

1737 Edition
Guarino Guarini, "S. Maria della Divina Providenza di Lisbona," Architettura civile (Turin: Gianfrancesco Mairesse, 1737), plate 18, [engraved by Giovanni Abbiati].
Source: gallica.bnf.fr / Bibliothèque nationale de France
The redacted portions of the plates are clearly evident in this comparison. The dedication to Padre Antonio Ardizzone, the founder of the Theatines' Lisbon establishment, followed by Guarini's own name in his capacity as ducal mathematician, appeared along the upper right edge of the sheet in 1686, and has been removed in the 1737 sheet. Furthermore, the name of the engraver Giovanni Abbiati, present at lower left on the earlier sheet, has also been removed for the later edition. Scholars generally agree that these changes were made after the names of the engravers and original dedicatees became irrelevant fifty years after Guarini's death.
New Preliminary State
Now, an additional state of this Lisbon section plate has emerged in the digitized collections of the Biblioteca Nacional de Portugal, Lisbon (at the top of this post). This version of the plate is virtually identical to the 1686 edition, with the sole difference that the numeral 18 is missing at the upper right corner. In this case, though, the number has not been obliterated, but rather has yet to be inserted as part of the process of ordering the plates for publication. It thus predates the 1686 plate, and illuminates a stage of the production process apparently before a fixed order for publication of the project plates had been determined. Indeed, perhaps the plates remained unordered at Guarini's death.
Further evidence suggests the sheet was sent to Lisbon to function as would a presentation drawing, to provide the patrons with a grand and appealing representation of the planned construction. The handwritten inscription at the bottom (not by Guarini) clarifies some details of the design: it labels the voids in the nave piers as confessionals, and explains that the spaces above these are tribune that will be accessible through a passageway from behind. Finally, it enumerates the cupole (domes and lanterns) in the building, three on the longitudinal axis (nave and choir), two over the transept chapels, a larger one at the crossing, and four over the nave chapels for a total of ten.
Dating Guarini's Lisbon Design
The Biblioteca Nacional de Portugal's record on the sheet dates it to c. 1650, based on a 1977 publication by A. Aires de Carvalho [Catálogo da colecção de desenhos (Lisboa: BN, 1977) no. 532]. This date corresponds with the foundation of the Theatines' Lisbon establishment by Ardizzone and Alberto Maria Ambiveri, but not with Guarini's plans for the church. The engraving must date to Guarini's years in Turin (beginning in late 1666), since the engraver Giovanni Abbiati is known as active in Turin and Milan, c. 1678-1700.
But the design itself also dates to Guarini's years in Turin. As I have demonstrated (Klaiber 1993, followed by Morrogh 1998, Varela Gomes 2001-3, and Varela Gomes 2006), Guarini's project for the Theatine church of Santa Maria della Divina Provvidenza, Lisbon, almost certainly dates to the years around 1680, when the young Duke of Savoy, Vittorio Amedeo II, entered a marriage contract with his first cousin, the Portuguese Infanta Elisabetta Luisa Giuseppa. The plan was to establish him as king or regent in Portugal, thus gaining for the Savoy the power and resources associated with the vast Portuguese overseas territories. In anticipation of the marriage the two courts exchanged diplomats, artists, and other representatives, as well as gifts and cultural projects. The contract, however, was dissolved in 1682 before any marriage occurred, and the entire enterprise evaporated. Guarini never went to Lisbon, his church was not built (though, according to Varela Gomes 2001-3, possibly begun), and therefore not destroyed in the 1755 earthquake.
The Lisbon sheet provides an invaluable snapshot of a previously undocumented stage in the production of Guarini's project engravings for his treatise. And it captures a moment when Guarini was simultaneously preparing designs for publication while using prints of the same designs to communicate with patrons and woo them to support his projects. The plan for Guarini's Lisbon church, in the 1686 (above) and 1737 (below) versions: Guarino Guarini, "Pianta di S. Maria della Divina Providenza di Lisbona," Dissegni d'architettura civile… (Turin: Gianelli,1686), plate 17, engraved by Giovanni Abbiati.

When people think of orange and black, they traditionally associate it with Halloween and SF Giants. However, it's a beautiful color combination that can be part of your home or office decor all year round. If you love the color orange for example, but are afraid to splash it on your walls in your living room for example, you can start on a smaller scale. Plus, keep in mind that orange comes in various shades from a merigold orange (which is more of a yellow orange) to tangerine orange to rust. You don't need to choose a bright orange if it doesn't resonate with you. If you prefer darker tones that evoke more warm earthly hues such as cinnabar or spice, you can start small with accents such as throw pillows, framed prints, vases, and candles. Or, if you want to take it up a notch but not go all out just yet, you can paint your front door or paint one wall orange or black as a focal point. You can choose to make a bold statement by splashing paint on your walls and ceiling or keep it subtle with accents. Here are 5 ways you can use this beautiful color scheme to transform your space into one that you love.

One of my favourite events is the Turning Point Recovery Society annual fundraiser. As a support recovery organization they always invite a celebrity speaker who has a personal experience with recovery. This being the 10th anniversay, I thought I'd post some of our past speakers.
Above is this years speaker, golf broadcaster and former professional David Feherty. A funny funny man.
Matthew Perry and Rob Lowe were a couple of years apart but it didn't stop Perry from insisting that he was better looking.
Jim Belushi and Ashley Judd both had compelling stories of the effects of addiction on family members.
Martin Sheen was just a great guy. Open, honest, and had time for everyone. David Crosby and Crosby Stills & Nash were one of my all time favourite bands. A real honour to meet him. Also a great storyteller.

The IBM Storwize V5000 is a family of midrange and entry block-storage systems capable of virtualizing all attached disks and other attached storage systems. The V5000 is a storage system based on the IBM Spectrum Virtualize (SAN Volume Controller) virtualization software. There are three models in the V5000 family with differences in configuration and available features. The largest model Storwize V5000 can scale up to two pairs of controllers.
Differences with the Storwize V7000 include that SAS host interfaces are supported and a limit of scaling to two controller pairs (four controllers total) for V5100/F and V5030E.
The Storwize V5100F is an all-flash version where only SSDs or Flash Core Module are used in the configuration with NVMe attach and SAS attach expansion modules. NVMeoF is also supported.
The three models (V5010E, V5030E, and V5100/F) represent different price points and allow customers to upgrade from the V5010E to the V5030E. Feature enablement is different, which is primarily dependent on the different hardware (processors and memory) of the different models.
The management of the V5000 is a web-based GUI that has been developed for greater simplicity. Different than most other storage systems, the advanced features are pre-installed on the V5000 with some included in the base price of the system. Additional cost features are enabled with license keys.
The virtualization of external storage systems from a variety of vendors has two forms that can be utilized. One is to explicitly map the LUNs (volumes) from the external storage for host access through the V5000 and the other is to migrate the data through the V5000 to internal or external storage to take advantage of the block-level virtualization with the advanced features for thin provisioning, wide striping, and the EasyTier automated data tiering. Since all the accesses are through the V5000 controllers, this type of virtualization has been called an "in-band" type of virtualization approach.
For high availability, Storwize runs in a paired configuration with custom clustering software. Clustering for a scale out configuration is supported for up to four pairs of controllers. (Note – IBM uses the term 'node' for a controller rather than a pair of controllers, which is different from most other vendors). Spectrum Virtualize also supports a standby node that become active after a single node failure or during a service action
Cloud tiering allows volumes to be tiered to clouds including Amazon S3, OpenStack Swift, and IBM Cloud. IBM Cloud Object Storage will be added as a tiering target.
The IBM V5000 is targeted as a midrange general purpose, block storage system with the ability to virtualize existing storage systems as a consolidation solution for the largest model. The different models allow customers to start with a smaller investment in storage and increase capacity with controller upgrades. With the VMware support and the ability to use SSDs and automatic tiering, the V5000 is an excellent storage solution for server virtualization. The capacity, advanced features and the performance give the V5000 capabilities much greater than its midrange positioning by IBM.

The IBM Storwize V5000 system is a high-performance, scale-out block storage system with an all-flash model, the V5100F. The major value for customer is with the block storage system and the ability to scale performance and capacity and the integration of Spectrum Virtualize software to virtualize externally attached storage systems in the largest V5000 model with transparent data migration in all models. The functionality provided is typically seen in high-end enterprise systems but with the V5000, is offered into mid-tier and entry markets.
Advanced features of replication, snapshot and tiering to clouds are very complete implementations. The V5000 added storage pooling with dynamic block assignment (called distributed RAID by IBM) but continues to use copy-on-write snapshot technology rather than redirect-on-write. We would expect this to change, providing the more efficient redirect-on-write snapshots.
The scale out capability is another advanced feature for block storage. Currently the system scales to two pairs of controllers in the V5030E and V5100/F. This is adequate as a complement to the V7000 with a lower entry price. The storage virtualization features are the same as offered with the SVC and provide great customer value.
Evaluator Group believes the Storwize V5000 systems to be part of a family that leads in functionality and performance for the midrange and entry block storage markets. The advanced features, scale-out capability, storage virtualization, and all-flash model are distinguishing for the lower end of the midrange and entry-level customers.

It is finally ready to take centre stage once again...
The world most famous and well-loved steam locomotive is back, after a multimillion pound renovation and overhaul it is finally ready to take centre stage once again.
In March 2016 for 7 days the iconic steam engine will be running along the North Yorkshire Moors Railway once again. It will be the first opportunity to ride behind and witness this amazing sight for the first time since the overhaul.
The anticipation and expectation is huge and this heritage line is the perfect place to launch The Flying Scotsman once again.
Philip Benham, Managing Director of the NYMR, said:
"We are absolutely delighted that the overhaul of 'Scotsman' is approaching completion and looking forward to being the first heritage railway in the country to welcome this prestigious locomotive fully decked out in its final colours. This record-breaking locomotive is probably the world's most famous engine, and the only survivor out of a class of 78 making it a very special engine.
We are looking forward to creating many opportunities for the public to enjoy the Flying Scotsman experience whilst she is here. We would encourage anyone with a keen interest to keep checking our web pages and the media for the most up to date information."
The NYMR links Pickering and Grosmont along 18 miles of preserved railway. It attracts come 350,000 visitors per year making it the world's busiest heritage railway.

Sometimes you just need a 2000 year old ultra religious Jewish dude, political insurgent, conceived by an other-worldly creature, that was part God and part human but also wholly human and wholly God and died and came back to life to somehow help you out 2000 years later when you are waiting for the results of that dubious mole. Thank you, Jesus... it was just a hairy nevus.
So, the premise of The Book of Strange New Things is that "aliens" need Jesus too. Technically, in this book, humans are the aliens but the "natives" were exposed to a Christian missionary preacher and just are craving more and more Jesus. Like Jesus is chocolate.
This is a dystopian sci-fi novel with a lot of Christianity in it. Now, I have two religion degrees and it was a lot for me. It has more Bible verses than a drunk Mel Gibson.
I will say, this book is for grown-ups, which is refreshing compared to a few books I've read lately. I don't think dystopian sci-fi novels should be for children anyway. Sure it starts out innocent enough with Goodnight Two Moons, but then it devolves into Pat the Mutant Radioactive Bunny, and then The Very Hungry Flesh-Eating Bacteria. Inappropriate.
Our narrator in this book doesn't drink. Former alcoholic preacher. Boo. Here is a fun winter cocktail to make this season more bearable. Applejack Sazerac: 2 oz. apple brandy, 1/4 ounce maple syrup, 3 dashes Peychaud's bitters. Stir with ice then strain into an old fashioned glass. Serve up and garnish with a lemon twist.

LONDON (Reuters) - The British government will always respect the rule of law, foreign minister Dominic Raab said on Monday, responding to concerns that Prime Minister Boris Johnson could ignore legislation that may force him to delay Brexit.
"This government will always respect the rule of law. That's been our clear position, consistently, and frankly it's outrageous that that is even in doubt," Raab told parliament.
"Of course, how the rule of law will be respected is normally straightforward, but sometimes it can be more complex because there are conflicting laws or competing legal advice."

Quick Bite: Arizona Cry Babies
Since the U.S. Supreme Court knocked down most of the Arizona anti-immigrant law, there seems to have been a lot of whining from Arizona government folks about how horrible that is. Here is my advice. Suck it up and shut up. The law was not some old tradition. It was relatively new law. You go back to doing what you did before. That you have less legal excuse to act on Luddite xenophobia is a good thing. You will get no sympathy from me.

Snack Review
Buy potato chips on Amazon #ad
Taste test: These chips were extremely popular around the chip bowl.
The chips are very thick (and yet also light and airy at the same time), with a whole lot of crunch and a mild pepper taste. It's quite a difference from your typical potato chip, and people liked them a lot and kept coming back for seconds and thirds. Yum!
Shop: Buy potato chips on Amazon #ad
Smell test: Mild pepper aroma.
From the package: "From Greece, to Italy, to Spain, to Provence, the Mediterranean is bursting with taste. At the center of its culinary culture, olive oil, catharsis of flavor, spells taste. While the golden elixir is gaining momentum from California to New York and throughout cosmopolitan cities in the United States, we concocted our dream chips based on world class ingredients and a bit of Riviera cuisine."

Which camera to buy DSLR or Compact Camera?
Back in the days of film, if you wanted to get serious about photography, you simply went out and bought your compact camera and then started to build up a collection of amazing photos.
Things were pretty straightforward back then, because an SLR was pretty much the only affordable interchangeable lens option. With the transition from film to digital, however, the camera market has become much more diverse, with many more types of camera to choose from.
For this reason, a digital SLR camera is not always seen as the obvious choice for photography enthusiasts.
Without doubt, the biggest challenge to traditional DSLRs in recent years has come from compact system cameras like DSLRs, these also provide access to the world of interchangeable lenses and are often much smaller, too, making them more discreet and easier to carry around.
Despite this there are still many good reasons to invest in a compact camera. They key word here is invest because buying your first the best compact camera under 300 is exactly that an investment. Ultimately, it will serve as the foundation stone around which your lens collection and all your other photographic equipment will be built.
While CSCs certainly have the advantage in terms of size and weight, DSLRs are not without their own unique set of benefits. One obvious advantage that compact camera enjoy over CSCs is that they come fitted with an optical viewfinder that provides a crystal-clear view of what the camera can see though the lens. While electronic viewfinder technology has improved immensely in recent years, most photographers would agree that optical viewfinders still have the edge.
For starters, they tend to perform much better in low light than their electronic counterparts, where a lack of light can cause the displayed image to flicker and become grainy. And while the latest generation of electronic viewfinders undoubtedly provides a better preview of how the captured image will look before you've taken it, many photographers still prefer the precision, clarity and immediacy of an optical viewfinder at the point of capture.
It's not just the viewfinder that makes the camera attractive to photographers, whereas some CSCs priorities keeping size of a minimum, this can sometimes be to the detriment of handling. Compact camera on the other hand, generally tend to priorities handling over size.
And while you're obviously never going to be able to fit a DSLR in your pocket, it's worth remembering that most entry-level and mid-range camera aren't actually all that massive or heavy anyway. In fact, it's only really when you get to the enthusiast and professional end of the market that size and weight really becomes an issue.
And then, of course, there is the aforementioned lens and accessory market. Buying a DSLR camera opens up a huge and ever-expanding universe of lenses and accessories that are designed to be used with DSLRs.
These can really help you to grow with your new camera and expand your photographic horizons. It's for all these reasons and more that many photographers choose to purchase and work with DSLRs. If you are thinking about purchasing a compact camera, then in my upcoming blog I will be aiming to steer you through all the main considerations and help you decide on a model that's right for you.

The weather has been cold and rainy here and I didn't think I would push it outside so yesterday I completed 8km on the treadmill. I am pretty pleased with my speed (which, if you can recall, is usually a lack thereof). I finished the 8km in 47:23, making my time 5:55 km/min. Last fall I had a few runs that were 5:45 min/km, and I'm determined to get back there. I guess I need to do some more speed training!
When I finished I turned on my iBootcamp and completed the ab workout and planks. I'm still sore from the other day, but it felt good to get that done. I enjoy the app and I think it was worth the $0.99 that I paid for it. I find the encouragement from the virtual coach amusing. He has a lot of spunk!
Anyway, this is it. Hoping to get some hill training in today. But it's gross out and I don't think my son will be too keen to join me.
And before I wrap this up, I want to wish everyone participating in the Cabot Trail Relay an AMAZING weekend!

I've spent 20 years of Sunday afternoons listening to the radio broadcast "The Glen Jones Radio Programme featuring X.Ray Burns", from WFMU at 91.1fm out of New Jersey, come rain or shine–including frigid Sundays listening in piles of snow on my roof, with my foot jiggling the antenna and drinking tallboys in the days before internet streaming.
Glen Jones and his co-host X.Ray Burns have a three hour program of free-form radio from 12-3pm, covering Sinatra to Elton John; Ramones to Daft Punk . It is an eclectic show held together by nuanced themes, measured tempo and clever segues. Smart listening is rewarded. At the top of each hour, the two men interrupt the set with banter, bickering and minutiae. At times, stretching into a love letter to fading memories of a New Jersey-of-their-youth. Within this are reveries on the diners, drive-thrus and food stands that dwindle in a lazy radius around metropolitan New Jersey. You arrived at the program for the music but it isn't long before you realize that there is an under-current of "food blog" to it. This aspect is promoted by both hosts, but most certainly underscored by X.Ray Burns who posts tablescapes of excessive lunches and ornate dinners at home, staged with newspapers, condiments and tableware.
Naturally, a few years ago I started taking food notes from the radio broadcast and X.Ray's editorials on Facebook–hoping that some day I too would travel up and down eastern corridors of New Jersey to sample curated selections of comfort food: grilled, griddled, fried, battered and breaded that was continually broadcast at me from across the Hudson River.
X.Ray Burns is a colorful character. His opinions and tastes are often larger than life. These then are my notes from his conversations. This is a road map to Nirvana paved with gluttony. When the check comes, tell them X.Ray sent you. Bon appetite.

Our dear friend, Kenneth Green passed away on February 10th, 2019. Some of his friends offered additional X-Ray food notes. I'm sharing those here.
Tom Keating: Stash's! Chicken Galore!
James Douglas: I met up with him a couple years ago at Biggie's in Carlstadt at his suggestion. We consumed many a bi-valve. I believe he had Clams Casino and Oysters. it was a favorite place for him at the time.
Brian Philip: He also like some place in Cedar Grove, Steve's Sizzling Steaks in Carlstadt, Charlie Blood's in Garfield, some Italian place in Bloomfield (loved their Clams casino), but I sure were just touching the tip of the iceberg. Be nice to get a complete list. [see below]
Jill Meier: La Sicilia in Belleville was one of the places where he waged his war on the mollusks.

Among his less savory qualities, he's a poor sport, a sore loser and ill fitted for honest labor. He makes bad friends and worse decisions. Animals avoid him and children despise him. He's been known to drink to excess, carry on with seditious talk and leer at women. He's a coward, a card cheat and a known liar.
Mrs. Call's second grade class said perhaps all that needed to be said about Larsen.In a moment of vindication and possibly clarity, Call would add to Larsen's permanent record that he was a bit of a dreamer and that Larsen was "an excellent student but his grades trailed off in the final semester."True, Larsen was filled with promise and saddled as starry-eyed but one can't help but notice that Call's inability to chisel this raffish diamond-in-rough wasn't also a clerical trick to distance herself from the responsibility of the 'Nurture' debate.She also said he was "prompt".She wasn't wrong.
