They take off this robes in their houses, and in places where garments are unnecessary. But everywhere and always they are very attentive to cover their persons with great care and modesty. Wherein they are superior to other nations, especially to the Chinese.” Father Chirino - Relacion de las Islas Filipinas 1602 One of the earliest records of Philippine fashions comes from the 16th century manuscript known as the Boxer Codex. 15th century Filipinos were described to wear stylish and lavishly beaded clothing from only the best and most expensive materials available at that time. In 1591, the Chinese merchants sold over 200,000 robes of cotton and silk up and down the islands. This shopping spree caused such an alarm to the Spanish regime because chiefs and slaves wore the same extravagant silk and lavishly beaded outfits, making it impossible to judge their rank from their dress. Another concern was the exorbitant amount of money Filipinos spent on their clothes, which the colonizers maintained should go to the Spanish treasury instead of the pockets of the Chinese traders.

    Heraldic Terms

    HERALDIC TERMS The following terms, and their definitions, are used in heraldry. Some terms and practices were used in period real-world heraldry only. Some terms and practices are used in modern real-world heraldry only. Other terms and practices are used in SCA heraldry only. Most are used in both real-world and SCA heraldry. All are presented here as an aid to heraldic research and education. A LA CUISSE, A LA QUISE - at the thigh ABAISED, ABAISSÉ, ABASED - a charge or element depicted lower than its normal position ABATEMENTS - marks of disgrace placed on the shield of an offender of the law. There are extreme few records of such being employed, and then only noted in rolls. (As who would display their device if it had an abatement on it?) ABISME - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ABOUTÉ - end to end ABOVE - an ambiguous term which should be avoided in blazon. Generally, two charges one of which is above the other on the field can be blazoned better as "in pale an X and a Y" or "an A and in chief a B". See atop, ensigned. ABYSS - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ACCOLLÉ - (1) two shields side-by-side, sometimes united by their bottom tips overlapping or being connected to each other by their sides; (2) an animal with a crown, collar or other item around its neck; (3) keys, weapons or other implements placed saltirewise behind the shield in a heraldic display.

Among other topics, Webb advised that he was the last survivor of the three “Bronxville Boys” who came to Cornell in 1950 from that village in Westchester County. They roomed together as freshmen, joined Delta Upsilon together and remained close friends through graduation and beyond. They even sat side by side in the 54 Cornellian’s group photo of their fraternity. Boyce Thompson, who died in 2009, worked for Pet Milk in St. Louis for a few years after graduation and later moved to Dallas where he formed and ran a successful food brokerage specializing in gourmet mixed nuts. Ever the comedian, his business phone number (after the area code) was 223-6887, which made the letters BAD-NUTS. Thankfully, his customers did not figure it out.
