Hollande Envoys Said to Brief ECB Officials on His Economic Plan
Aides to French Socialist presidential candidate Francois Hollande have had contacts with top European Central Bank officials to brief monetary policy makers on his economic plans, four advisers to Hollande said.
Hollande's team has spoken to at least two members of the ECB's executive board, said the advisers, who declined to be named because the discussions were confidential. An ECB spokeswoman denied any such contacts have taken place. She spoke on condition of anonymity, in line with ECB policy.
The meetings and telephone conversations, which began last year and have carried on as Hollande's campaign progressed, underscore concern that a change in government in Europe's second-largest economy risks upsetting efforts to quell the region's financial crisis.
"Given the complexity of Europe's problems, I would hate for a new government to come into a political vacuum," said David Owen, chief European economist at Jefferies Securities International in London. "It's reassuring."
The Socialist leads in polls for the May 6 runoff after winning the first-round vote. A BVA survey published today gave him an advantage of 53.5 percent to 46.5 percent over incumbent President Nicolas Sarkozy. No margin of error was given.
Both candidates made the ECB a campaign issue. Hollande has called on the ECB to lend directly to governments and Sarkozy wants to expand the Frankfurt-based bank's mandate to including spurring growth and not just controlling inflation. Germany opposes both proposals.
French Spread
France was stripped of its AAA credit rating in January by Standard & Poor's and the premium it pays to borrow over Germany is about 135 basis points, compared with about 30 basis points a year ago.
With French jobless claims at a 12-year high, Hollande has called for the region's budget pact to be re-negotiated to include plans on growth. He has said that his government won't ratify the treaty agreed by 25 European Union countries last March in its current form.
While both ECB President Mario Draghi and German Chancellor Angela Merkel said last week that they're amenable to adding commitments to growth to the accord, their definition is unlikely to be the same as Hollande's.
"It's not the same idea of growth," Hollande said April 26. Draghi is "adding even stronger competition, liberalization and privatization."

Comments about P3 P3 E9300 Professional Weather Station:
Together with extra temperature/humidity sensors this makes a reasonably priced data collection package to establish and monitor the heat loss/gain performance of a house. Also one can monitor the humidity levels in an attic and root cellar.
It was relatively easy to set up, though it took several tries to get it to find all of the external sensors error free. It seemed to find some other non-existent sensors.
One feature it would be great to have would be a Bluetooth link for daily or weekly data dumping.

The Story
Stylish and ultra-compact, the Nespresso Pixie has big features for brewing one perfect cup of espresso at a time. Fully automatic brewing works exclusively with Nespresso's premium coffee capsules (an assortment of 16 is included) for locked-in freshness and mess-free convenience. You select your cup size and pour size for a single, double or triple shot, and can even choose the brewing duration based on your preference. With its innovative Thermoblock technology, the Pixie heats in 25 to 30 seconds—faster than most single-cup models on the market, while the 19-bar pressure pump ensures maximum flavor extraction. Spent capsules are neatly ejected into an internal receptacle (holds up to 10). Removable water tank is easy to fill; folding drip tray accommodates larger travel mugs. The Pixie is joined by the Aeroccino Plus chrome frother: two whisk attachments prepare two servings of milk to transform your espresso into a cappuccino, macchiato or latte (or heat milk for cocoa and recipes). Dual steam and froth features perform to perfection at the touch of a button; nonstick interior makes for easy cleanup. Calibrated pitcher lifts off base for convenience.

Hello all,Please indulge me. I am currently having a heated debate with some people about the reasons that bigfoot most likely does not exist. Anyhow, one person insisted that bigfoot is "often" seen by backpackers. By backpackers, says I? Then I explained that I am one of said backpackers, and even though I live on the East coast, and bf is supposed to be in the PNW, I pointed out that I have never seen a post about seeing bigfoot on any backpacking forums. I was then challenged to post an inquiry about the imaginary animal, with the assertion from the bigfoot believers that it would surely open up a deluge of reports.Well, anyone see bigfoot?
ummmm....Shaq, on TV, size 23...
Big foot does exist and I have many credible friends who have seen it. They can even be a nuisance like bears. One stole my friend Danika's sandwich. While I have never seen one we did smell one once and it unmistakeable. The dogs freaked out and we bugged out. Ali I Believe
I am still working on my modified combo Bigfoot/Unicorn PCT bag method - just have to figure out how to stop the Leprechauns from eating through my knot stick.My horn can pierce the sky! -Michael Scott
I saw a scary movie about Bigfeet in East Texas when I was a kid..........and I probably still kind of believe. We're the only continent without monkeys or gorillas, so why not. And I know a guy (who I believe) who swears one ran across the road in front of him 35 years ago, here in West Texas, and stepped over a 3 strand barbed wire fence. Scariest guy I know, and he was scared when he recounted it. Of course, he drank more than anyone I know, so I guess I should take it from there. I like the idea of an unknown animal that we can't find though.

"I am still working on my modified combo Bigfoot/Unicorn PCT bag method"You just need to make sure and use a silver carabiner...or is that for werewolves?
Maybe Less Stroud is the guy you need to talk to.He's been around a bit.I heard Less Stroud is so tough he stuffed Bigfoot into a quart-sized ziplock.
When Bigfoot goes to sleep every night, he checks under his bed for Les Stroud...
I've got a couple of friends that smell bad, don't shave very often, and wear size 13's. Does that qualify 'em?

Snapped this up north a few years back. Only known photo in existence. Bigface rarely shows himself.

A38 crash victim: 'The hail caught everybody out'
Posted: January 24, 2013|
POLICE are continuing an investigation into the cause of a spate of crashes on a short stretch of the A38 in which one man died.
One driver involved in the incident went on to The Herald's website, thisisplymouth, to describe how the weather conditions suddenly deteriorated just before the collisions..
The series of smashes happened within minutes of each other at around 5.45am on Tuesday morning, around the same time as a freak hail storm.
A 42-year-old man was left critically ill in hospital and died later from his injuries. He was expected to be named today.
His car, a Ford Fiesta, was involved in a collision with a Toyota Avensis at 5.48am, police said.
There were also eight other vehicles involved in collisions along the stretch of road between Manadon roundabout and the Forder Valley interchange.
Police were unable to give further details about the probe, but confirmed there would be a full investigation into what happened.
There have been reports of a heavy hail storm at around 5.30am, which is thought to have contributed to reduced visibility for drivers.
In a comment on thisisplymouth a witness said: "I was one of the unlucky ones involved in one of those accidents where the road was wet but by no means slippery.
"I was driving under the flyover doing 60mph where the hail suddenly came down so fast that it caught everybody out.
"Looking ahead I could see that there had been an incident, which turned out to be very serious, and I eased off and kept my distance between me and the car in front.
"Unfortunately some people didn't manage to stop in time due to the incredible deterioration of the road conditions and ploughed into other vehicles including mine, I am thankful to be uninjured.
"Whether the roads were salted or gritted I believe this would not have changed anything due to the vast amount of ice that settled within minutes."
Helen Chivers from the Met Office said: "There were heavy thunderstorms and hail showers in the Plymouth area, particularly going into the dawn of Tuesday morning.
"Heavy hail that covered the ground rapidly and because temperatures were low it would have added to the ice on the ground."

Hitler Reading
Is there much to be learned from a portion of his books?
Apr 26, 2010, Vol. 15, No. 30 • By MICHAEL MCDONALD
Ryback embraces this conceit wholeheartedly, and his modus operandi is to single out surviving books from Hitler's library that seem to have played an important part in his life. He tells us a bit about each book's author and contents and then uses the books as a springboard to discuss broader historical issues that influenced the development of Hitler's Weltanschauung. For example, in the opening chapter, Ryback relates how, during World War I, Hitler walked into the French town Fournes one day while serving as a message runner on the Western Front and purchased an architectural history of Berlin by the celebrated art critic Max Osborn. The book, a chauvinistic paean to Prussian grace, constitutes one of the earliest traces of Hitler's lifelong obsession with the German capital. It survives, smudged and paraffin-stained, in the Library of Congress's rare book collection. Examining it, Ryback notes how it "evidently spoke to the young Austrian corporal as indicated by the volume's dog-eared pages and broken spine." With even greater insight, Ryback observes how the very purchase of the book reveals the artistic ambitions that consumed Hitler:
It is a telling anecdote that reveals Hitler's aesthetic bent of mind and his lifelong interest in the arts, which, as Frederic Spotts has observed in Hitler and the Power of Aesthetics (2003), would prove to be as intense as his racism.
In the following chapter Ryback discusses an inscribed copy of a German stage adaptation of Ibsen's Peer Gynt, given to Hitler when he was in his early thirties. Hitler received the book as a gift from Dietrich Eckart, who ran a publishing house that specialized in anti-Semitic literature and was, according to Ryback, the man who "scripted Hitler's role as history's most infamous anti-Semite." Ryback speculates on the appeal that Peer Gynt—the story of a youth from a provincial Norwegian village who is intent on becoming "king of the world"—would have had for Hitler and uses Eckart's biography to explore the early days of the Nazi party in Munich.
Ryback knows the history of this period exceptionally well, and has a good eye for spotting and highlighting revealing vignettes; the links he establishes between the books and the life invariably make for absorbing reading. All told, he concludes that Hitler seems to have read (surprise!) mostly rightwing and racist books by Houston Stewart Chamberlain, Paul Lagarde, and Henry Ford that the Nazi publisher J. F. Lehmann gave him over the years.
When it came to literature, Ernst Jünger's battlefront memoir Fire and Blood seems to have exercised a considerable attraction on Hitler during a period when he considered writing a war memoir of his own. Needless to say, Hitler was persuaded by Jünger's insistence upon "the transformative effects of slaughter" and "the hardening of heart and soul" that occurs in combat. Hitler also had a penchant for the Saxon novelist Karl May's Wild West adventure stories, which he had reissued in a special field edition for German soldiers at the front and later recommended to his military commanders as manuals of strategy. (Don't blame the innocent May, whose entertaining tales of the wise Apache Chief Winnetou and his "white blood brother" Old Shatterhand were also a favorite of Albert Einstein.)
On the whole, however, what we may call serious literature held no interest for Hitler, and is totally absent from his surviving library. In its place Ryback notes scores of books devoted to Hitler's lifelong preoccupation with the occult—the prophecies of Nostradamus and the like—together with works that deliriously describe the interaction between the realms of matter and spirit. A personal favorite of Hitler's in this latter category was a man by the name of Ernst Schertel, who wrote a dense tome "proving," so he thought, how the creative, "truly ektropic" (sic), genius possessed the demonic power to free himself from empirical realities and, in effect, will new worlds into existence through sheer force of personality. And so on, up to Ryback's final chapter on how Hitler's reading of Thomas Carlyle's History of Frederick the Great gave him hope in the bunker that, somehow, Germany would win the war.
Ryback deserves praise for his investigative labors and, especially in our increasingly virtual and digitalized age, for recognizing what the physical nature of books may reveal about their owners. He also deserves a reader's gratitude for being a graceful and interesting writer.

So, my question is: I've read that when it's cold and your horse gets sweaty, you should hand walk said horse until the sweat has dried, does that still hold true if you are blanketing said horse?
Lacey grows a mammoth of a winter coat and she's been sweating like a beast, even in cooler weather (today it was in the mid-fifties for our 45 minute walking ride and she was really sweaty afterwards) so I'm mildly concerned about how she's going to get dry when she has 4 inches of hair if she continues sweating like this when it's "really" cold. I could clip her, but I don't have clippers so that would be a giant production to get some etc. However, I might look into getting some because if she continues sweating like this, I sure as heck don't have the time necessary to cool her out until she's dry.

Flying from Bucharest
Flights from Bucharest with airberlin depart from Henri Coandă International Airport (OTP), which is also known as Bucharest Airport and Otopeni Airport (its actual location is in the town of Otopeni, 18 kilometers to the north of Bucharest's center).
Henri Coandă International Airport Information
Henri Coandă International Airport was opened in the late sixties and redeveloped in the nineties to create what is now a modern and well-equipped facility. The airport offers all of the facilities you could need, including currency exchange services, ATMs, food and drink stands and a small supermarket. Car-hire desks and tourist information are also available in the airport terminals.
Getting to the Airport in Bucharest
The 783 Express bus to Henri Coandă International Airport leaves every 20 minutes from the city center during the day and every 40 minutes at night. Alternatively, you can use a combination of minibus and train to Henri Coandă International Airport instead, which involves taking a train to Bucharest Nord and catching the shuttle bus from there. Another option, if you want more flexibility, is to take a taxi to Henri Coandă International Airport, though take care to use only official taxi companies.

Election Won't End Abortion/Contraception Debate
NEW YORK - Democrats and liberal advocacy groups have declared victory in what they called a Republican "war on women" and are celebrating the pivotal defeats of some GOP candidates who took rigid stands against abortion.
However, the issues in dispute - notably access to contraception and abortion - are far from settled, and social conservatives are already girding for new confrontations.
"We're going back to the drawing board," anti-abortion leader Marjorie Dannenfelser told fellow conservatives at a post-election gathering.
Dannensfelser said her organization, the Susan B. Anthony List, would seek to back candidates who can argue against abortion "with compassion and love." In an interview, she said Republican nominee Mitt Romney was too defensive on abortion-related issues and mentioned Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and Indiana Gov.-elect Mike Pence as potential presidential candidates who intrigued her.
For activists supporting family planning programs and access to abortion, the election produced a series of triumphs, starting with the re-election of President Barack Obama. Groups such as Planned Parenthood and the National Organization for Women campaigned vigorously for him, and he won about 55 percent of women's votes.
"This is a resounding victory for women," said Planned Parenthood's president, Cecile Richards. "This election sends a powerful and unmistakable message ... that the American people do not want politicians to meddle in our personal medical decisions, and that politicians demean and dismiss women at their own peril."
The differences between Obama and Romney on some "war on women" issues were stark. Obama vowed to require insurance companies to cover birth control, preserve federal funding for Planned Parenthood, and protect access to abortion. Romney took opposing positions, and said he'd like to outlaw abortion except in cases of rape, incest and threat to the mother's life.
According to exit polls conducted for The Associated Press and TV networks, 59 percent of voters said abortion should be legal either in all or most cases, while 36 percent said it should be illegal all or most of the time.
Planned Parenthood and its allies celebrated the outcomes of a host of specific races, including the defeats of two Tea Party-backed GOP Senate candidates whose chances plummeted after widely criticized remarks about rape and abortion. In Missouri, Todd Akin said women's bodies have ways of avoiding pregnancy in instances of "legitimate rape," while Indiana's Richard Mourdock said pregnancy resulting from rape was "something God intended."
Akin's rival, Claire McCaskill, will be one of a record 20 women in the next Senate, 17 of them Democrats. Among them will be the first openly gay senator, Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin, and the first Asian-American woman, Hawaii's Mazie Hirono.
In New Hampshire, wins by two Democrats in House races gives the state, which has two female senators, the first all-women delegation to Congress. It also has a newly elected woman as governor, Maggie Hassan.
Even though the abortion/contraception debate gained prominence during the campaign, exit polls indicated it wasn't the paramount concern for many women worried about economic problems.
Elisabeth Jacobs, a fellow in governance studies at the nonpartisan Brookings Institution think tank, suggested there was a connection between the two issues that perhaps cost the Republicans the election.
"It's pretty clear that at the last minute, a lot of women made a decision that Obama really understood what their economic concerns were," she said. "Yes, they want control over their own body ... but decisions over health care can limit their ability to control economics as well."

What is it about sunny weather, great food, music, art and LOTS of people?
It's Festival – Grand Rapids signature event of kicking off the summer.
So many volunteers, so much work and so much fun. As a simple gesture of gratuity to all who labored to make this event possible, we wanted to capture Festival '09 in a less 'conventional' way and create a reflective and cinematic expression that says "thank you."
From the tranquil to the frenzied….thank you.

Saint Thomas Hospital
Acoustics By Design
Saint Thomas Hospital in Nashville, Tennessee, has always received high marks from hospital rating programs. So, when their research showed a common thread in patient dissatisfaction, they knew something had to be done. Press Ganey patient surveys revealed time and again that their lowest score was "noise in and around the room." To be proactive, the hospital installed a sound masking system in four of their patient rooms as a bit of an experiment. The goal was to increase the overall background noise level in a way that would be unnoticeable to patients, and thereby increase speech privacy and patient satisfaction as a result. After the Speech Privacy System was installed, the hospital staff noticed a difference, but had no way of quantifying the results.
Acoustics By Design was brought in to make detailed sound measurements and interpret the data. We started by comparing the background noise levels in the four effected rooms with the sound masking system turned off and then again with the system turned on. Detailed measurements were taken at multiple locations over a 48-hour period to get a representative sample of the sound levels during the day, evening, and nighttime.
Our noise study verified that the sound masking system made a positive difference in several areas. First, the data showed that by raising the overall background noise level, the system had increased speech privacy by "covering" some of the noise coming from the nurses' stations. Next, we found that the consistency of the background noise "masked" some of the sound generated from the medical equipment in the rooms, and ultimately made the rooms more comfortable for patients. Finally, by raising the background noise levels, the sound masking system achieved measurable and positive results during the day, evening, and nighttime. Our findings gave the hospital the right information so they could make informed decisions on installing sound masking systems in other parts of their facility. After full implementation, most of the noise complaints went away and the overall patient satisfaction increased by 33%.

The exhibition is a joint project being conducted by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), the DFG, the Max Planck Society, the Leibniz Association, the Helmholtz Association, Deutsche Naturwissenschaftliche Forschung e.V. (German Scientific Research Association) and Diversitas Germany.
The topic of biodiversity research is intimately connected to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), an international treaty signed in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, which Germany became a party to in 1994. The goals of the treaty are to promote the conservation of biodiversity, the sustainable use of its components, and the fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising out of the utilisation of genetic resources. These goals also apply to research and are taken very seriously by the DFG when making its funding decisions. The DFG has published guidelines to assist researchers and scientists in planning research projects and funding proposals for projects relevant to the CBD.

FC Dallas
By Jeremy Villanueva
It's tough to believe, but less than a year after last year's festivities in Brazil, the road to the 2018 FIFA World Cup continues this week with the second round of CONCACAF qualifying and three FC Dallas players will battle for their countries.
Tesho Akindele(Canada), Atiba Harris(St. Kitts & Nevis) and Moises Hernandez(Guatemala) compete in a home-and-home series for their respective countries beginning Thursday and wrapping up next Tuesday.
Akindele's Canadian squad is the favorite in their battle with Dominica. Akindele accepted the Canada call-up for the World Cup qualifiers, defining his allegiance to the neighbors north of the border. Canada will take on Dominica at 6 p.m. this Thursday at Windsor Park in Roseau, Dominica before hosting the second leg next Tuesday at BMO Field in Toronto.
St. Kitts and Nevis looks for continued success in the qualifiers after defeating Turks and Caicos Islands in aggregate 12-4 in the first round. Harris and St. Kitts and Nevis faces El Salvador – who had a bye in the first round – on Thursday at Warner Park in Basseterre, St. Kitts and Nevis and then will play in San Salvador, El Salvador on June 16 in Estadio Cuscatlan.
Hernandez received a call-up for Guatemala, and the leftback hopes to make his competitive international debut against Bermuda on Friday at Mateo Flores in Guatemala City, Guatemala. The team will then travel to Hamilton, Bermuda for the second leg.
The winners of this week's qualifying duels will advance to a third round where they will face off in another two-legged knockout series to be held later this year.

What will they look like ? Will the look Mille fluer ? Mom is my pyncheon hen and dad is my mille fluer d'uccle rooster?? Was wondering could they have feathered legs like their dad or clean legged like mom.. Ive got three now that will be going on lockdown on the 17th and then Ive got four more that are developing just right ..
what is a pyncheon ? I dont believe i have ever heard of them.
The gene for feathered shanks is considered dominant. However, I'm not sure if it's a "completely dominant" or incompletely dominant" situation.
Pyncheon Bantams
By Brian Heldberg
Member SPPA
Pyncheon bantams have a long history, but disappeared from exhibition for most of the 20th century. Dedicated breeders have brought them back and are rediscovering this colorful breed and its history.
Pyncheons are a medium size bantam, with cocks weighing 24 ounces, cockerels and hens weighing 22 ounces and pullets weighing 20 ounces. They are recognized by the American Bantam Association, but not the American Poultry Association, and are shown in the Single Comb Clean Leg Class. The breed has a tuft of feathers rising from the head, behind the comb. The plumage is similar to the Mille Fleur Color pattern. Shanks and toes need to be willow yellow, soles of feet yellow and earlobes bright red. Other colors will disqualify birds being shown.
Pyncheon breeder, Rusty Hart, Michigan,shares a picture of his hen as an example of good type and color. The Mille Fleur pattern in Pyncheons differs from other breeds.
Pyncheons' Mysterious History
Finding historical information on Pyncheons is a quest. Bantam Breeding and Genetics by Fred P. Jeffrey includes an article on Pyncheon bantams, pages 83-84 in the 1977 edition.
The Rev. B. Samuel Miller referred to in the article purchased and bred his Pyncheons in Kentucky. Rev. Miller claims that the cock in Carl Heinrich Bloch's (1834-1890) painting, Peter's Denial, (www.hopegallery.com/php/artwork.php?artwork=693), is proof of the antiquity of the breed. I'm not convinced, because I just don't see the Mille Fleur color pattern. The Pyncheons article in Bantam Breeding and Genetics mentions a protuberance on top the head, but the Bantam Standard does not ask for this, and not all breeders agree that there ought to be a protuberance on top the head.
Nathaniel Hawthorne describes Pyncheon bantams in his novel, House of Seven Gables. According to the Rev. Miller, Hawthorne "does not call them bantams, but in his description of them compares them in size to quail, partridges and pigeons." I found no information on where Hawthorne had obtained his birds, and who received them after his death.
Rusty Hart spreads this pullet's wings to show the absence of black stippling which is usual in other Mille Fleur pattern birds.
The article in the ABA Book of Bantams implies that the breed was developed from birds brought to northeastern U.S. ports by foreign ships. If that is so, then this breed existed elsewhere, it has died out since that time.
It's very possible these first birds originated in Belgium, where the Mille Fleur color pattern originated, and where, in Flemish Belgium, families with the name Pyncheon may be found. It has been suggested to me that the breed may have been created by a Belgian poultry breeder of the name Pyncheon. The name would have passed on to the birds the way that Sir John Sebright gave his name to the bantam breed he created.
I have found there are families of the name Pynchon in a number of places in Europe and England. The name also appears among immigrants in the early days of the northeastern U.S. I'd like to suggest the possibility that Nathaniel Hawthorne obtained his birds from a breeder named Pynchon, who lived in his area, and that Hawthorne modified the name when he gave it to the family in his novel.
Hink-jc Mountain Poultry in Pennsylvania is raising both Mille Fleur and Porcelain varieties of Pyncheons. They will ship hatching eggs, but chicks must be picked up from the farm.
Pyncheons Now: Still a Bit Mysterious and Certainly Rare
A look through information posted by breeders in forums online tells me the breed is inbred, with poor fertility, but they are good layers for bantams, and good broodies. They lay cream or tinted eggs, are winter hardy, and like to fly. According to Nathaniel Hawthorne, they say, the breed has existed in the U.S. since the mid-1700s. The breed is being promoted and interest is growing. Charlie and Jody Hinkle, (www.hinkjcpoultry.com), in Slatington, Pennsylvania, raise both the Mille Fleur and Porcelain color varieties and are actively promoting the breed.
Leg and foot color can be elusive, and incorrect color will disqualify a show bird. Shown by Rusty Hart, willow yellow legs with yellow soles like these are the standard.
Breeders have crossed them with Old English Game bantams (I suggest trying Spangled) and Mille Fleur Leghorns, and this improves fertility. Tassled games would make a good outcross. Ed Hart of Illinois, and others, breed Tassled OE Games. He agrees that they would make a good outcross for Pyncheons, the downside being that they might introduce feather pattern problems in maintaining the Mille Fleur color. Getting the leg color, willow yellow, right is a struggle. Any other color is a disqualification. Breeder Rusty Hart in Michigan (no relation to Ed) has bred roosters with other leg and earlobe colors into his flock to improve fertility, but found it difficult to breed back to the willow yellow leg color, which is recessive.
"The Mille Fleur color is one of the hardest color varieties to breed to perfection, and in the Pyncheon breed has some unique characteristics," says Rusty Hart. "There has to be a balance of type and color for the particular breed."
The characteristics unique to the Mille Fleur pattern in Pyncheon females include little to no black stippling in the neck hackles. Most Mille fleur varieties show a strip of black in the lower female neck hackle, a black strip that goes from the white spangle and extends up the shaft of the feather where it meets the body of the feather. Their hackle pattern is the exact same pattern as the breast, cushion, and back, uniform with the rest of the plumage. Color should predominate over white in the head, primary and secondary feathers. The undercolor should be slate shading to slatey buff at the base in males, medium slate shading to pale salmon at the base in females.
"The undercolor of the Mille Fleur Pyncheon is just as important as the outer color," says Hart. "Without the proper balance of color, the bird looks foreign and not good Pyncheon color."
Left: This close-up of Rusty Hart's young rooster shows the backward tassel on his head, behind the single comb. The comb should be small enough not to lop over. Red earlobes are another breed requirement. Right: Rusty's pullet displays a similar backward tassel.
Nathaniel Hawthorne bred Pyncheons in 1850, and I presume this was at the small red farmhouse near Lenox, Massachusetts, where the author and his family moved in March 1850, living there until early 1852. This was at the time the author wrote House of Seven Gables, which appeared in 1851, in which he mentions Pyncheons.
Hawthorne used his Pyncheons to draw parallels between the breed and the Pyncheon family. The hens, an "immemorial heirloom in the Pyncheon family," are of "aristocratic lineage."
Brian Heldberg drew these Pyncheons with colored pencil, art marker and ink. "The male bird has a raised flyaway comb, like what is seen on real Pyncheons, caused by the knob on top of the head. This is different from what is described in the standard. I gave the female a twisted single comb - what I've read is called an 's-curve,'" he says.
". . . the grotesque and stilted hens in the Pyncheon garden become symbols of the Pyncheon family itself, and of its rigidly fossilized traditions . . ."
The hen coop is "of very revered antiquity."
The Pyncheon hens are "declining," like the Pyncheon family. They belonged to Hepzibah Pyncheon, an isolated 60-year old spinster, unable to leave the original house, as the Pyncheon hens will not be found anywhere but there.
So, the birds in The House of Seven Gables are a little different from those that Hawthorne owned: Pyncheons have always been small, and it's hard to imagine anyone calling them "grotesque and stilted."
I also found quotes in these books:
Hawthorne in His Own Time by Ronald A. Bosco and Jillmarie Murphy (2007, University of Iowa Press), pg 190: " . . . strong and natural, are never left by hint until the supernatural has expressed. His grotesqueness is inimitable . . . His Pyncheon hens, with their aristocratic attenuation, are the very expression of gallinaceous absurdity . . ."

The Hand of Ethelberta by Thomas Hardy, published 1876: "Some of the tones of autumn, formed a proper background to a person constituted as Faith, like Miss Hepzibah Pyncheon's chicken, possessed in miniature all the antiquity of her progenitors."
A black and white illustration exists of Pyncheons in the ABA Bantam Standard, but not every edition has it.
There is a Porcelain Pyncheon being bred. In the forums a Gold-Neck variety was planned, with plumage, I assume, like the Gold-Neck D'Uccle. I myself imagine a "dark" Mille Fleur variety, with plumage very much like the Speckled Sussex ...
One breeder, discouraged at not finding any stock, intends to re-create the breed.
The origins of the Pyncheon bantam are mysterious, and we can only speculate beyond the few facts that we have. We may never know just how they came to be, and who had them in their earliest history.
i dont remember how to post pictures. sorry..
Don't worry about not being able to post a photo....Feathersite has a page devoted to Pyncheons which features some photos of Hink-JC's Pyncheons. Thanks for posting the article about the history of the breed, I enjoyed reading it.

London Pass BlogBack to Blog
Remember the Second World War in London
Published: Friday 4th of June 2010
London was subjected to an ongoing and persistent bombing campaign during the Second World War, with German planes regularly targeting key locations across the city.
Indeed, the various images of London during the Blitz still stand as an evocative reminder of those years.
Britain may have won the conflict in the end, but the capital has not forgotten this dark chapter in its history.
As a result, people who are interested in military history and the Second World War in particular can find plenty of fascinating things to see in London.
The Churchill War Rooms in Whitehall are recommended to any visitor to the city, regardless of whether they are an expert on the war or are only just starting to learn about it.
This is where the British government, led by prime minister Winston Churchill, managed the fight against the Nazis alongside the country's military commanders.
Although the bunkers ceased to be used after the war ended in 1945, it was not long before the historical significance of this location was recognised and they were preserved intact.
Today, they are a museum that serve as a fascinating insight into a period of history when Britain's way of life was genuinely under threat.
Visitors to London can walk around the command centre and see how the war was fought and eventually won.
They can also take the opportunity to learn about Churchill himself, a man now regarded as a national hero and one of Britain's greatest prime ministers.
After you have been here, why not head to the Imperial War Museum?
This is free to enter and a great opportunity to place all you have read about in history books in its proper historical context.
Although the museum focuses on many military conflicts involving the UK over the years, this is a particular treat for those with a keen interest in World War Two.
Indeed, it houses plenty of permanent exhibitions which contain artefacts and displays that vividly put across every aspect of the war.
From the build-up to the conflict in the years after the First World War, to the so-called Phoney War in which Germany simply failed to launch a major assault on British soil, it's all here.
You'll also get a fascinating insight into how people in London coped with the Blitz, as well as the details on specific frontline conflicts such as the Battle of Britain and how Britain's navy dealt with the Nazi threat.
One of the most moving exhibitions in the Imperial War Museum tells the story of the concentration camps, where the Nazis rounded up anyone who did not fit Hitler's vision of a perfect society.
More than six million Jews were killed in the camps, and hearing the testimony of the survivors is a reminder of why it is so important to never forget the atrocities committed throughout history.
After the UK's policy of appeasing the Nazis came to an end, the country put up a stern fight against the invaders.
London was at the very centre of this fight, as it was both a key target for the enemy and the place from where the war effort was led.
A trip to London is a great opportunity to learn the ins and outs of this pivotal period in human history and see firsthand where the decisions which shaped the future of the world were made.

Break Free From the Fish Bowl. (Goodbye Mass-Produced Life.) ~ Catherine Beekmans
It's time to take a chance, fish, and jump out of the bowl.
During an episode of Orange is the New Black that I watched last night, the main character Piper was told by her husband that her life in prison was a fish bowl and to try not to get caught up in it. Her reply:
"I have to live in this fish bowl. It's hard."
It is hard, isn't it? Being aware of anything outside of our own little fish bowls, I mean.
My fish bowl consists of my family, my home, my pets and my career. Millions of us all have similar bowls, like they're created, assembly-line style and set out on a pet shop wall.
And they are, aren't they? Our lives are mass produced by the expectations of societal norm. It's easy to forget to turn our heads and look through the glass.
As an exercise, while writing this, I tried to be aware of and learn something outside of my little existence and it was difficult! First of all, as the nature of my personal fish bowl dictates, I am doing about five different things at one time: working, writing, making a phone call, thinking about meal planning for my family and battling a case of the sniffles. Where, in all of that, is the time to be aware of anything else?
So, pause. Sit. Think. What is outside of my own little fish bowl that inspires me, that makes my heartbeat quicken, that makes me yearn to be, to do?
First of all: elephants.
My love of those giant beauties is what brought me to elephant journal in the first place. This one little (and amazing) corner of the cyber world has essentially sent me flying fast and furiously out of my fish bowl in so many ways. I've also discovered a new life goal, which is to save money towards a family volunteer experience in Namibia with the EHRA.
Secondly: culture.
What's it like to be a mother in Germany? What type of job could I get if I moved to Singapore? Would I like the typical foods prepared in Guyana? How can I be so sadly uneducated about the world around me? It's time to start exploring and appreciating the many cultures at my fingertips.
Perhaps I could learn a thing or two in my quest to be a better parent, employee and cook. Having a shift in perspective, brought on by examining how other people across the world navigate their lives, can be a huge life blessing.
Lastly: people.
As many of my friendships fade away and new ones sprout like seedlings in a garden, I realize that I have been allowing my insecurities and "busy" life to shelter me from meeting new people. I've been visiting the same little fish bowls and while they are valued parts of my life, I have been ignoring an entire ocean of possibilities.
Other people are a constant source of learning and enjoyment in my life.
The lesson here is that we need to make time to slow down and start looking outside of ourselves. We have to be still and we have to remove our minds from the jumble of daily life.
Jump out of your bowl. Fly out of your bowl. Learn, experience, think and wonder.

Go ahead, make the leap. You will find yourself in an incredibly larger bowl. And you will never find your way back. You will grow and will soon want to make another leap. Every transition will reveal another incredibly larger universe. Just remember there are ever more and hungrier predators waitng for you. Its a different (if you will pardon the pun) a different kettle of fish. But you can survive and thtrive.
Thanks for your comment! I'm confident my parents taught me a thing or two about how to deal with predators, so I will be a-okay! 😉

Lord of the Flies Author Revealed
A new biography of the writer gets us digging for a rare interview from WNYC.
"A writer nowadays ought to know priests and prostitutes. He ought to have pen-friends, maybe. He ought to know about dockers and he ought to know about what it's like to be an ambassador...a writer should avoid the literary world as much as he can."
So said the British author and Nobel laureate William Golding in a 1963 interview with WNYC's Patricia Marx.
Golding rarely gave interviews and did not want a biography written during his lifetime, according to The New York Times.
Nearly 20 years after his death, the notoriously hard to track down author of Lord of the Flies (1954) can't avoid the literary world any longer. He's immortalized in a biography called, aptly enough, William Golding: the Man Who Wrote Lord of the Flies.
Golding (1911-1993) is most famous for writing the book that tops high school reading lists about a group of schoolboys who, when stranded on an island with no parents, become savagely violent toward one another.
To write his biography, the first to be published about him, author John Carey (Here Comes Dickens: the Imagination of a Novelist, 1973) went through 5,000 pages of Golding's diaries, searching through personal notes of a man who wrote primarily about the darkness of human nature.
When WNYC asked Golding if he was a pessimist back in 1963, he said, "I'm an intellectual pessimist, perhaps, to a large extent, but an emotional optimist." When asked where the optimism in Lord of the Flies is hidden, Golding responded: "You cannot write a book pointing out what is wrong with man if you don't basically believe that man is worth having this pointed out to him."
This "emotional optimism" is evident in Carey's biography. The Times says "the plump and well-researched biography sits lightly on the lap," and "portrays Golding, a man of constant sorrow, in a warm, fondly comic light."
It seems Golding has been captured by the literary world, whether he likes it or not.

The Spiritual Dead Can Be Brought Back To Life
Luke 15:32. In the Parable of the Prodigal Son, Jesus illustrates to us how the spiritual dead can be brought back to life. In this parable the prodigal son leaves his father and uses a portion of his inheritance for "riotous living". At this point his father considered his son dead, because his son was separated from him both physically and spiritually. The father did not desire his son to be "dead", but the son was physically separated and spiritually separated from his father because of his "riotous living".
Now at some point the son saw the error of his ways. In Luke 15:18 the son says to himself "... I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,". Here the son acknowledged his sin and turned away from his "riotous living" and returned to his father. The father is overjoyed to see his son who was separated from him and who now had repented of his sinful ways. The father is overjoyed and considered his son now alive (Luke 15:32, "It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found").
His son was no longer spiritually dead. This was because the son had repented of his sins and had returned to his father. He had returned to his father because he knew that his father loved him and he would offer his son salvation from his sinful life. Salvation is what God offers to all of us, his prodigal children. Jesus tells us of this parable of the Prodigal Son to illustrates how and why he offers salvation to us all who are spiritually dead and ready to repent of our sins to God.

Water Conservation Isn't the Only Solution
As public awareness has increased about declining aquifer levels, residents have adopted water saving methods to reduce the demand for water. While these efforts have reduced overall water demand in Castle Pines North, water conservation alone cannot be viewed as the only solution to the community's water needs. The sheer volume of demand by surrounding communities also impacts Castle Pines North's primary water resource--the Denver Aquifer Basins.
Finding renewable water resources is vital in order to meet the Castle Pines North Metropolitan District's existing demand for water by growing populations. It is not practical to drill additional wells into a basin that cannot be replenished. The number and location of wells is strictly regulated and impacts neighboring communities. Castle Pines North lacks the needed space for more wells. [More]
The Castle Pines North Metropolitan District Board of Directors and the District staff believe that acquiring renewable water resources is the number one priority for the District. Groundwater levels and well production rates in Douglas County continue to decline, while demand for water increases as the population grows.
The District Board of Directors undertook and completed an Integrated Water Resource Plan (IWRP) to evaluate our current and future water demands, conservation strategies, the sustainability of the current Denver Basin Groundwater assets, and identify potential renewable water resource alternatives. Camp, Dresser, and McKee (CDM), a large national engineering firm, conducted the study.
Castle Pines North Metropolitan District has reached one of its most significant milestones in its procurement of renewable water. The agreement with the Parker Water and Sanitation District to obtain 1,500 acre-feet of storage space in the Rueter-Hess Reservoir was finalized August 28, 2008.
Rueter-Hess is the first major step in providing renewable water to the Castle Pines North community. The reservoir, located in southwest Parker, will provide water storage for a proposed water treatment plant that will deliver water to Castle Pines North and Castle Rock. It also provides carry over water storage in the event of drought or water delivery interruption. The reservoir has a total storage capacity of 72,000 acre-feet and is scheduled for completion in approximately three years. The cost to purchase the storage space was $8.25 million. Wells Fargo provided financing which enabled the District to issue Certificates of Participation bonds.
