The Voorburg Shield Cropper I never sought much publicity for my work on this relatively new Dutch breed of pigeon as I knew from experience that such publicity always resulted in inquiries to purchase stock and it is very seldom that I have anything to spare and I always dislike to disappoint fanciers. Not less serious was the German order that all pigeons had to be killed with the exception of a small number to be interned in a central pigeon camp near Gouda. The pigeons were liberated in the flying pen and in the next few days I began to mate them, trying to make good use of the remaining part of the breeding season already well under way. mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk /Glassfeather/shield.htm   (1434 words)

Towns in Germania Inferior: Forum Hadriani (Voorburg) The fact that the old name was still in use during the reign of the emperor Decius (249-251), should have been sufficient warning against this theory. It is tempting to link this to several well-documented building activities in the region during the reign of Hadrian (e.g., repairs of the Canal of Corbulo, which connected Voorburg with the Rhine at Leiden in the north and the estuary of the Meuse in the south). This is more or less at the time of the disaster that befell Germania Inferior in 274, when the Roman emperor Aurelian reconquered northwestern Europe, which had become independent in 260 and had succeeded in defending itself against the Germanic Franks and Alamanni. www.livius.org /vi-vr/voorburg/forum_hadriani.html   (594 words)

Voorburg Shield Cropper with white bars Out of Voorburgs accidentally in the past white bars have been bred. As soon as I had read Lippmann I knew what to do, not to use red white bars anymore because then I had to compromise between an instable B-bar and a fixed or stable C-bar, but the bar goes together with a bluish-red colour.

Baruch Spinoza While in Rijnsburg, he worked on the Treatise on the Emendation of the Intellect, an essay on philosophical method, and the Short Treatise on God, Man and His Well-Being, an initial but aborted effort to lay out his metaphysical, epistemological and moral views. His critical exposition of Descartes's Principles of Philosophy, the only work he published under his own name in his lifetime, was completed in 1663, after he had moved to Voorburg, outside The Hague. By this time, he was also working on what would eventually be called the Ethics, his philosophical masterpiece. plato.stanford.edu /entries/spinoza   (11082 words)
