As announced Friday, Mia Couto has won this year's Neustadt International Prize for Literature:
Gabriella Ghermandi, who nominated Couto for the Neustadt Prize, said of him, "He is an author who addresses not just his country but the entire world, all human beings."
Couto is the first Mozambican author to be nominated for and to win the Neustadt Prize. He is considered to be one of the most important writers in Mozambique, and his works have been published in more than 20 languages.
Born in 1955 in Beira, Mozambique, Couto began his literary career in the struggle for Mozambique's independence, during which time he edited two journals. Raiz de Orvalho, Couto's first book of poetry, was published in 1983. His first novel and the novel that was the representative text for the Neustadt, Sleepwalking Land, was published in 1992 to great acclaim and is widely considered one of the best African books of the 20th century.
Couto is known for his use of magical realism as well as his creativity with language. In her nominating statement, Ghermandi wrote, "Some critics have called Mia Couto 'the smuggler writer,' a sort of Robin Hood of words who steals meanings to make them available in every tongue, forcing apparently separate worlds to communicate. Within his novels, each line is like a small poem."
This year, Couto also received the 2013 Camões Prize for Literature, a prestigious award given to Portuguese-language writers.
Sleepwalking Land is available from Serpent's Tail, and is definitely worth reading.
ALSO worth checking out though is The Tuner of Silences, which came out recently from Biblioasis.
Translated from the Portuguese by David Brookshaw, here's a synopsis:
Mwanito Vitalício was eleven when he saw a woman for the first time, and the sight so surprised him he burst into tears.
Mwanito's been living in a big-game park for eight years. The only people he knows are his father, his brother, an uncle, and a servant. He's been told that the rest of the world is dead, that all roads are sad, that they wait for an apology from God. In the place his father calls Jezoosalem, Mwanito has been told that crying and praying are the same thing. Both, it seems, are forbidden.
The eighth novel by The New York Times-acclaimed Mia Couto, The Tuner of Silences is the story of Mwanito's struggle to reconstruct a family history that his father is unable to discuss. With the young woman's arrival in Jezoosalem, however, the silence of the past quickly breaks down, and both his father's story and the world are heard once more.
At 30, the Mexican writer Valeria Luiselli is already gathering her rosebuds. Faces in the Crowd, her poised debut novel, was published by Coffee House Press, along with her Brodsky-infused essay collection, Sidewalks. The essays stand as a theoretical map. . .
Fantomas Versus the Multinational Vampires: An Attainable Utopia (narrated by Julio Cortázar) is, not disappointingly, as wild a book as its title suggests. It is a half-novella half-graphic novel story about . . . what, exactly? A European tribunal, Latin. . .
Marie NDiaye has created a tiny, psychological masterpiece with her Self-Portrait in Green. In it she explores how our private fears and insecurities can distort what we believe to be real and can cause us to sabotage our intimate relationships.. . .
Reading a genre book—whether fantasy, science fiction, crime, thriller, etc.—which begins to seem excessively, stereotypically bad, I have to make sure to ask myself: is this parodying the flaws of the genre? Usually, this questioning takes its time coming. In. . .
The Sicilian Mafia has always been a rich subject for sensational crime fiction. The Godfather, Goodfellas, and The Sopranos worked the mob's bloody corpses and family feuds to both entertainment and artistic value. Giuseppe di Piazza's debut novel attempts this,. . .
Antoine Volodine's vast project (40 plus novels) of what he calls the post-exotic remains mostly untranslated, so for many of us, understanding it remains touched with mystery, whispers from those "who know," and guesswork. That's not to say that, were. . .
It hasn't quite neared the pitch of the waiting-in-line-at-midnight Harry Potter days, but in small bookstores and reading circles of New York City, an aura has attended the novelist Elena Ferrante and her works. One part curiosity (Who is she?),. . .

3 Things that Distinguish 'Masters of Sex' from Every Other Show on TV
Features By Inkoo Kang on October 16, 2013 | Be the First To CommentHere's some (s)excellent news: Showtime's Masters of Sex is a fantastically thoughtful and original series. Based on the research (and eventual romance) between real-life sexologists William Masters and Virginia Johnson, the show has overcome a middling pilot and the disadvantage of inevitable comparisons to its mid-century contemporary Mad Men in just three episodes. If Don Draper and company are constantly reacting to the ground moving beneath their feet, with the values of 1960s America undergoing sudden tectonic shifts, Bill Masters (Michael Sheen) and Gini Johnson (Lizzy Caplan) are actively trying to get those seemingly immobile tectonic plates to budge, just a little bit. Even as a renowned OBGYN with the Nobel Prize just out of his reach, Masters has to fight — and fight dirty — to get his university to sponsor studies of human sexuality. (Surprise: it's not easy to get paid to watch other people doing it.) As a divorced mother of two, the thoroughly modern Gini, who started as Masters' secretary but will eventually become his equal, has already undergone her own sexual and feminist revolutions — she's just waiting for the rest of the world to catch up. Luckily, she's patient. Despite taking place in Eisenhower's America, Masters of Sex feels like a great advancement forward in TV. It's not that the show is radically innovative: the small screen is already full of doctors and anti-hero protagonists and slow-burning courtships. But the characters' forward-looking hopefulness is reflected by the show's ambitions. Below are three ways in which Masters of Sex distinguishes itself from everything else on TV today (spoilers below):
'Masters of Sex' Trailer Introduces Lizzy Caplan to the Alpha Dog of Coochie Medicine
Movie News By Nathan Adams on August 8, 2013 | Be the First To CommentThere's an old marketing cliche that says sex sells. If this is truly the case, then Showtime has successfully set itself up to have the hottest new show on TV once fall rolls around, because it's newest original program, Masters of Sex, doesn't just star sexy people like Michael Sheen and Lizzy Caplan, the entire concept of the show revolves around the scientific study of human sexuality. This means that not only will every episode be chock full of sexy talk, but there will also be plenty of room for tons of attractive guest stars to show up and get it on in front of the gaze of Showtime's cameras. Sounds interesting, no? Of course it does. So click through to watch the network's new trailer for the show, which will probably get your blood pumping a little faster.
Review: 'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2′ is a Sparkling Example of Too Little Too Late
Movie Reviews By Rob Hunter on November 16, 2012 | Comments (8)As someone who's somehow resisted the pull of Stephenie Meyer's Twilight books but has seen all five films, I feel confident saying the first three movies (Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse) exist on a sliding scale of awfulness. They're bland, lacking in anything resembling emotion or humanity, poorly acted, terribly written and insulting to the concepts of free will, family, gender equality, canine care, individuality and love itself. Breaking Dawn Part 1 changed some of that for the better. The themes were still offensive to rational people who prefer a uterus be connected to a functioning and free-spirited brain, but director Bill Condon managed to inject a degree of humor and zaniness to the proceedings that embraced the entertainment value inherent in the story but missing from the earlier films. Basically, he made it fun. And thankfully, he returned to helm part 2. To recap part 1, Bella (Kristen Stewart) the human and Edward (Robert Pattinson) the vampire have married, fornicated and given birth to a baby they felt it necessary to name Renesmee. While still a fetus the little scamp had sucked the life from its mother leading to Bella's death shortly after Edward decided to perform an emergency Cesarean with his teeth. He acts quickly and bites her again, this time in an attempt to save her life by turning her into a bloodsucker, and it works. She opens her inhuman, crimson eyes, and the credits roll. Oh, and Jacob (Taylor Lautner) the werewolf pees on Bella's newborn daughter […]
Cannes 2011 Review: Woody Allen's Midnight in Paris
Cannes Film Festival By Simon Gallagher on May 11, 2011 | Be the First To CommentEditor's Note: Our Cannes coverage kicks off hard and heavy here, so everyone welcome Simon Gallagher and forgive him his British spellings that slip by the editing process. Also, all Cannes reviews are best read with a glass of champagne. Day one on the Croisette and we're already opening with a name as big as Woody Allen. For the second year in a row, the director who never seems to tire of making films, and who can still occasionally make exceptional ones, has a film showing on the Croisette. Following last year's inclusion of You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger, the 64th Cannes festival opened this morning with the New Yorker's latest – Midnight in Paris – a screening that for me came laced with both excitement, and an underwhelming sense that I was about to see essentially the same Woody Allen film I've been watching for the past decade or so. It's not that I don't enjoy seeing Allen muse on the nature of love and relationships, or seeing him create a slightly grotesqued portrait of himself (this time taken on by Owen Wilson), I just think there is only so much enjoyment to be had when a filmmaker so obviously resists the urge to evolve through his art, no matter how good it is. But I had no reason to be suspicious, as it seems that Allen has taken it upon himself to debunk the idea that he generally makes and remakes the same film, throwing a […]
Kevin Carr's Weekly Report Card: December 17, 2010
Features By Kevin Carr on December 17, 2010 | Comments (2)This week, Fat Guy Kevin Carr enters the grid (which is what he likes to call his local IMAX theater) to try and find an old and hairy Jeff Bridges amidst a bunch of young-looking sexy-time people in tight body suits. Afterwards, he has a pic-i-nic at Jellystone Park and faces a bear attack. It's a good thing he had his hunting rifle with him… but he still wonders why that grizzly he shot was wearing a hat and tie. Finally, he hands out some grades on two limited release award flicks that really don't jazz him as much as a big, dumb IMAX 3D movie.
Interview: Michael Sheen is Tron's Albino Ziggy Stardust
Comic-Con By Scott Beggs on July 30, 2010 | Be the First To CommentEditor's Note: This interview originally appeared this summer in our Comic-Con coverage. That's why it's dressed like a character from Sailor Moon. For a brief moment in the latest Tron: Legacy trailer, you can catch a glimpse of Michael Sheen in a snow white jump suit taking things way over the top. He must have been the set designer's worst nightmare, and the make-up department's best friend. On the second day of Comic-Con, already confused by a lack of sleep and a mysterious amount of whiskey missing from the $6 bottle in our hotel room, I stepped into a pitch-perfect re-creation of Flynn's Arcade. Tron the Game stood like the dot on a dusty exclamation point at the top of the room, and plastic covered each game as if time wouldn't get to them anyway. I was led through a dark hallway, only lit by blue LED runners, and out into the open expanse of the bright white nightclub set from the new film. Clear bottles with blue liquid in them stood like soldiers in the back of the room, and I sat down next to Michael Sheen on a luxurious couch to talk about his beard, his best David Bowie impression, and his unsnobbish willingness to take his classical training into the genre world.

Apparently, some think that vintage values and a desire to try to become rich are the root causes of mass shootings like the most recent scumbag who decided to murder women because he "couldn't get one." So wealth and power are to blame for this, and are the equivalents of sexual aggression? Traditional gender roles are to blame? I would suggest the oppositve, I wonder if its wasn't on some level an evil polar reaction to the radical feminist line of "hate all men."
From the article linked above: "Rodger was crazier and more violent than most people, but his beliefs are on a continuum with misogynistic, class-based ideas that are held by many."
Seriously? If we're on a rage against a construct of vanished cultural mores that have about as much influence as 8-track music releases today, it really does fly in the face of the long dead concept of chivalry.
A man not afraid to "pleasure himself" in public is a symptom not of a long dead 1950's Leave it to Beaver cultural ethos, but of a hyper-sexualized society. We are seeing the ripening fruits of the so called sexual revolution. Sex and sexuality are blasted at us from across nearly the entirety of the culture. Kids are saturated in sexual instruction at schools, radio stations continually cycle sexually provocative songs, women are objectified and sexy clothing popularized by the Hollywood crowd. We as a people are drenched in sexual "entertainment" and "education" and then commanded to show a level of restraint that was murdered not long after the "Leave it to Beaver" cultural ethos.
It is not blaming the women, the scumbag who lays his hands on any woman or who tries or does take her life ought to be punished as seriously as the law allows when the evidence is conclusive. It is a statement of fact, that in a sexualized culture, when a woman who possesses the culture's definition of sexually attractive, dresses in a way construed as sexually arousing, the likelihood of her attracting unwanted attention increases, sort of like someone flashing around lots of money in the wrong places. Given the animalistic nature that has been unchained, it is due to the worth of every woman that she should consider where she will be and minimize the risk of harm, or at the very least, be armed and know how to defend herself from potential hostiles. You may cringe at modesty or weapons, but it would be better to either go unnoticed or to physically repel an attacker and call the police to come get the body than to have one's self savagely violated or slaughtered. Our culture may have already degraded to the point where rapists need to start becoming the victims of their own attacks for the rest to finally get the message.
It could also be argued that a Darwinist influence has helped to depreciate the value of life. How long have we been taught through our schools and through repeated reminders in generally accepted as scientific media, that we are all mere animals, brute beasts no better or different than monkeys or pigs? Which among the beasts possesses sexual restraint? Most beasts will mate whenever with whomever is ready. And its not just men. While human nature has always gravitated towards such things, it has been unchained from cultural restraints and from the underlying religious restraints, which the author vilifies as "dominance of the man and submission of the woman, without understanding the context placed on submission by the Christian scriptures:
Ephesians 5:22-29 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. (23) For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the savior of the body. (24) Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. (25) Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; (26) That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, (27) That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. (28) So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. (29) For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:
Christ loves the church, he died that we might live. This flies in the face of the culturally generated stigma that blames these verses for locking wives in a kitchen and taking from them all manner of choice. Those who believe this would do well to consider the Proverbs 31 description of a virtuous woman, who is not only a household manager, but a small business owner and property buyer.
Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands. She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar. She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens. She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard. She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms. She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night. She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff. She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy. She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet. She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple. Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land. She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant. Strength and honor are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come. She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her. Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all. Favor is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates. (Proverbs 31:10-31)
It should be clear that Biblical concepts such as submission of the wife in the marriage union have nothing to do with unleashing a generation of perverts on the women of America. And it certainly has little to do with "odd" fixations on houses and property, or the capitalist ability to generate wealth. Many among the rich and poor alike have embraced the now faded "music" group the Bloodhound Gang's view on sex and life from their hit song: "you and me babe ain't nothing but mammals, so lets do it like they do on the discovery channel." It also has nothing to do with submitting to the sexual domination of a predator. Such attacks should be mitigated or physically repulsed by the woman whether some kind of spray or with deadly force such as that offered by a handgun. Because, #yesallwoman have the right to be unmolested in their effects and persons.

India v England: Lessons as Cook's men restore some pride in final ODI
India v England: Matt Cansick takes a look at the talking points as Alastair Cook's men restore pride with victory in Dharamsala
England salvage some pride
An unbeaten 113 from Ian Bell helped England chase down the target of 226 set by India in the final match of the ODI series. Tim Bresnan overcame his struggles with an elbow injury to take 4-45 after India had been put in to bat, and despite continued good form from Suresh Raina (83), England looked to have restricted their opponents to a very achievable total. The loss of captain Alastair Cook for 22 did not affect Bell, and when Kevin Pietersen went for just six, he was joined at the crease by Joe Root. Another composed performance from the Yorkshireman allowed Bell to go about his business at the other end, and when Root fell for 31, it was Eoin Morgan who reached 40 not out to help Bell guide England home with seven wickets to spare. Victory in what was a dead rubber means that the tourists can leave with some positives, having bookended the five matches with encouraging performances.
India reassert themselves
A 3-2 series win can be seen as 'job done' for India – they have bounced back from a disappointing Test series before Christmas, and while comparisons may be drawn with the last series in India between these two sides, where the hosts completed a 5-0 whitewash, the series victory was the most important thing on this occasion. Captain MS Dhoni has relieved a little of the pressure that was building on him, and Raina's man-of-the-series performance will have given much encouragement for the future. As the home of the defending 50-over world champions, a series in India still represents one of the most daunting challenges for a touring side, but one would expect them to be equally dangerous during the Champions Trophy in England in June.
Several stand-outs for England
Joe Root averaged 54 over the course of the series, and on several occasions anchored an innings that was falling apart around him. The question now, with rested players about to come back into the side, is whether there is room in a ODI side for both Root and Jonathan Trott. Ian Bell looked good when he got in, and needs to replicate this on a more regular basis. In the bowling department, James Tredwell again showed why he has become the automatic choice when Graeme Swann is not available, finishing the series as the leading wicket taker with 11. With Monty Panesar firmly back in the international fold and Danny Briggs earmarked as a promising talent, there is real strength in depth in the spin bowling department. As for the quick bowlers, the stand-out players were those notable by their absence; James Anderson and Stuart Broad are likely to make for a far more potent bowling attack when they return to the side.
New Zealand tour an opportunity
This was Ashley Giles' first tour as coach of the limited-overs squad, and he felt that despite losing the series, it was "not a disaster". It will be interesting to see if he is able to make his mark on the forthcoming tour of New Zealand, having already made changes during this series. The wicket-keeping position is still undecided, and he has not been able to choose from a full-strength squad with several key players rested. Three Twenty20 internationals are followed by three ODIs in New Zealand, and with each passing series before the Champions Trophy the need to decide on a settled line up becomes more pressing. The age-old problem for England's limited overs sides has been consistency, and Giles will be looking to resurrect the form shown when they triumphed in the 2010 ICC World Twenty20.

John Lewis Partnership creates customer insight director role
The John Lewis Partnership has appointed Lloyds Banking Group executive Paul de Laat to the newly created customer insight director position.
John Lewis: appoints Paul de Laat as its first customer insight director
De Laat will work across both the John Lewis and Waitrose brands, which operate as separate businesses, as they attempt to understand customers' shopping behaviour better.
Charlie Mayfield, chairman of the John Lewis Partnership, said: "Customer insight is an increasingly sophisticated area and a central part of part of modern retailing.
"Paul's appointment demonstrates our commitment to understand every aspect of our customers' shopping behaviour, across both John Lewis and Waitrose, so that we can enhance the service we offer to customers."
The appointment comes after Marketing revealed that John Lewis was following in the footsteps of sister brand Waitrose by developing a rewards scheme, following the launch of the myWaitrose card in October 2011.
De Laat will report to Mayfield and join the company on 2 January from his current role as customer value management director at Lloyds Banking Group.
He said: "By turning customer data into actionable knowledge, we can enhance our relevance to customers and increase value both for our customers and for Waitrose and John Lewis."
His departure from Lloyds comes shortly after it emerged that Alex Owens, head of strategy at Lloyds, is also leaving the bank in January in order to take up a head of insight position at Sainsbury's.

I was in need of a bit of light relief in the middle of a rather trying garment so i thought i would make a top and skirt, both of which where simply constructions but turned fiendishly difficult by my choice of fabric.More on the skirt when i post it.
The fabric i used for the Jacket is a light crinkled silk which is rather lovely but!
The embellishments on the cuffs are made from the same fabric as the top and skirt.

Something to keep in mind the next time you order sushi
The next time you're looking to buy enough plastic cutlery to host a picnic for 2 million or so of your closest friends, head to the shore. That's about how much junk can be found in our oceans and waterways, according to new data from the Ocean Conservancy.
6 Signs You Shouldn't Swim There
And it's not just cutlery. The top 10 trash items found during the Ocean Conservancy's annual International Coastal Cleanup—which combs 20,000 miles of coastline—include: cigarettes, cups, lids, plastic bottles, food wrappers, glass bottles, straws, cans, and paper bags.
Or, to put it a different way, enough food packaging was found for you to get takeout for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day for the next 858 years, says Nicholas Mallos, conservation biologist and marine debris specialist.
While Mallos can't say for certain if the amount of trash increases or decreases over the years, he can say for sure that anything you discard can potentially end up in the ocean. In other words, anything that gets thrown away can have a profound affect on our wildlife—and us.
"There are toxicological signs that marine life ingests the chemicals and additives used in plastics, which means there's a chance that passes on to the people who eat them," says Mallos.
You've heard it before, but like all good advice, it's worth repeating: Here are four ways to cut down on the trash floating in our waterways.

What does Jem mean by his "caterpillar in a cocoon" image in To Kill a Mockingbird?
1 Answer | Add Yours
Jem describes his childhood as being a caterpillar in a cocoon because he always though the citizens of Maycomb were good people, and the trial made him feel differently.
Jem's comparison of his childhood to a caterpillar in a cocoon demonstrates that he is growing up. He realizes that the world is not the place he thought it was.
"Like somethin' asleep wrapped up in a warm place. I always thought Maycomb folks were the best folks in the world, least that's what they seemed like." (ch 22)
When Jem suggests that no one in the town helped Tom Robinson, Miss Maudie explains that many people actually did. She tells him that besides the help of the Negro community, many of the whites also supported Tom. Atticus, Miss Maudie, Mr. Raymond, Mr. Underwood, and some others are not racists. She also points out that Heck Tate and Judge Taylor also did whatever they could to help.
When Miss Maudie does not make a little cake for Jem, she is acknowledging that he is growing up. The trial was a rite of passage for him, and he is entering the adult world of reality.

hi everybody.
i was just wondering if anyone knew of a website or local farm in CA where i could get duck, chicken, and quail eggs for hatching. if you know a website, i need to be able to customize how many eggs i want to buy. i would preferably like a set of 4 of each breed. if it is a local farm, i need to be positive that they give out fertilized eggs, have the breeds i need, and it is decently close. please give me the address if so. thank you so much! please reply as quickly as possible! :) |

Where in California are you? I'm willing to donate mixed breed eggs from my southern California backyard flock of chickens, if you want them--but there would be some mutts in there. :) Pics of my flock are here, on my site: http://jackshenhouse.com/VSChickMeetMyFlock.htm The Norco, Corona and Temecula areas in southern CA are likely prospects for eggs, also. If I think of any actual hatcheries around, I'll post. Velvet ~:> |

Also, what would become of the birds after the science fair? Velvet ~:> |
- Posted by sydalicious2569 (My Page) on Thu, Feb 26, 09 at 1:00
me and my partner for the science fair will probably keep the birds or give them to friends... and thank you so much i will definitely check your site!! |
- Posted by sydalicious2569 (My Page) on Thu, Feb 26, 09 at 1:05
wow you have so many! cutie is absolutely adorable and i love her coloring!! how big are your chickens and whats the smallest and/or largest youve gotten? |
- Posted by brendan_of_bonsai 4b AK (My Page) on Thu, Feb 26, 09 at 4:13
Do you mind if I inquire as to how old you are and what you are planning on testing? |
I would be glad to send you some Pure Seramas, American Phoenix (Silver, BBR, Golden), Silkies, Old English eggs. These are all bantam varieties. When would you need them, how many, what breeds? Are you in 4-H and if not would you like to join? It is a good information source from others that know how and some that are learning how to care for poultry and other animals. 4-H does not only deal with animals but with all kinds of things, arts, crafts, sewing, charity work with the elderly, disables and disadvantage individuals. It is a good thing to have on your Collage applications, too. Sorry, sounds like an ad.'LOL' You can E-mail me a email@example.com |

Brendan_of_bonsai ~ i am 13 years old. me and my partner are testing which egg hatches fastest, nothing more. Seramas ~ i would like to have a set of 4 eggs. is there anyway you can check that they'll hatch before you send them? im not sure of the actual date quite yet that i wil need them. and im going to research breeds and talk to my partner about it today. how long do you think it would take from there to here, shipping? |
- Posted by sydalicious2569 (My Page) on Thu, Feb 26, 09 at 11:02
also, can anyone recommend where i can buy an incubator that holds 2 duck eggs, 2 chicken eggs, and 2 quail eggs? |
- Posted by brendan_of_bonsai 4b AK (My Page) on Thu, Feb 26, 09 at 12:36
That sounds like a fine science fair project to me. Goodluck. |
- Posted by brendan_of_bonsai 4b AK (My Page) on Thu, Feb 26, 09 at 12:37
You might need veterinarian approval to do this project. |
Many of the feed stores have them. I recommend the TURN-X TX8 Incubator for your application, they are the best-especially for the beginner. There is an auto turner for them (this feature almost doubles the price) that eliminate having to turn the eggs. They are in the $160 to $175 price range but are very dependable. The cheaper Styrofoam ones have problems maintaining humidity level for the beginner. If the price is too much contact your County Agriculture Cooperative Extension Office (CACEO), may times they will rent them to teachers/students. Also your local 4-H leaders can be quite helpful with any problems you may have and they can be contacted through the CACEO. Good Luck |
Here is a link that might be useful: TURN-X TX8 Incubator
I will 1-day express them for free. |
seramas, Do you incubate your seramas eggs in a regular incubator or do you have a special one because they are so small? |
I have special 900 egg incubators that I made. Am getting new ones that are 100% electronically temp/humidity controlled. Also turns the eggs but they lay on their sides like eggs normally do. They are very expensive but will be worth it. When it comes to the size of the eggs the incubator's size doesn't matter. It is the precision of Temp/humidity control that is most important-how well it ensures the conditions are the same through out the whole incubator. Many of the cheaper one are good for hatching in the center of the incubator-but a well designed one is consistent through out the entire area. |

sydalicious, are you in northern or southern CA? If you are in so. CA and I could bring you some eggs, that way they'd be more reliable than shipped eggs (shipped eggs have a lower hatching rate). Or you could pick them up, whichever you'd prefer and would be more comfortable with--be safe online when meeting strangers and all that!! If you plan on putting them all in one incubator, you might run into a problem. I don't know for sure, but each type of egg--duck, chicken and quail--may require different levels of humidity, I DO know they have different 'number of days to hatch'. Anyone know the answer to this? I'm too rushed right now to Google it. :) If they DO require different humidity levels, and you still want to do all three, you might try those little 2-3 eggs incubators--search online to find them. I have no idea how reliable they are, however. I use a Little Giant still air tabletop styrofoam incubator, it holds around 50 chicken eggs. seramas, you are too goodhearted for words. :) brendan, I'm curious, why would a vet's approval be required to hatch eggs? Velvet ~:> |
- Posted by brendan_of_bonsai 4b AK (My Page) on Thu, Feb 26, 09 at 18:23
Depending on the regulations surrounding the science fair any experiment that involves animals (especially vertebrates) might need a vets approval. I have no doubt that he would get it, he just needs it. |

Seramas ~ unfortunately, $160 is a little pricey for a small project. i found this link, but im not sure how reliable they are. im just looking for the simple incubators that little 1st graders use in class, that type of thing. http://www.hometrainingtools.com/catalog/life-science-biology/animals/cat_quail-eggs-incubators.html Brendan ~ Velvet ~ EVERYONE ~ |
Do you have a Feed Mill anywhere close. Try putting up a notice on their board. People coming for chicken feed may be able to spare some eggs. |
I lone the Automatic Turning #RX-2 Electric Incubators to the local school teachers last year I had 10 and could have used 5 more. This year I've 18 of them and still not enough. Any incubator will work but you may not get the 100% hatch you are trying for. Don't open unless it is to turn the eggs or add water. Be sure to place your Thermometer/Hydrometer where they can be read easily without opening the incubator. Adjust your temperature a day or two before adding the eggs. Do not place incubator near windows (sunlight will increase the internal temperature and reduce the humidity) and/or an outside door/wall during cold weather. Indoor temperature should not fluctuate more than +/- 5 degrees F. Duck eggs should be incubated separate for chicken and Quail. Incubation periods are different for each specie. Ducks information from my notes: Humidity consistency is very important. I've always mist the eggs after turning them starting about the 8Th day. According to my notes the humidity was 85% & Temp 99.5F from day 1 to day 25 there after increase humidity to 95% and drop temp to 98.5F for the last 3 days. Turn the eggs 3 x day first week, then 5 x day second week, then 7 x day to day 25-finish the last 3 days without turning. Quail: Depends on the Breed. Incubation periods range from 17 to 23 days depending on the specie. Chickens: Depending on the consistency of temperatures/humidity is 19 to 21 days (some have even hatched at 24 days due to big swings in incubator temperatures. |

brendan, that's interesting, I didn't know that! I wonder if it varies from state to state, county to county, etc. My daughter will be in 5th grade next year and will be doing the science fair thing, and I'm wondering if she'll want to do eggs/chicks. I'll have to find out if it's OK, thanks for the head's up! sydalicious: you and your mom are certainly welcome to pick the eggs up, my daughter and I could meet you guys somewhere like a public park or something if you want. I'm a mom myself, so I know I'd want my daughter to be careful. Be safe when meeting strangers! :) I'm on the edge of Los Angeles and Orange Counties, if you email me privately (see the link to my chicken info site below, my email addy is there) we can discuss it further: http://jackshenhouse.com/ My local feed store has both duck AND quail eggs for sale, I can bring some along if you want. I just called them and they say their eggs are fertile. I can offer both standard size and bantam eggs from my flock, although I've found that my banty eggs have a better fertility rate than my big girls do--I have to have a little talk with Phoenix, my big roo... I'd lend you my incubators, but I've starting my own batch of eggs tomorrow so they'll be in use. :( Here's what mine look like, they run about $45.00 or so: http://www.hotshotproducts.com/page/1/Product-Detail.jsp?groupId=307&prodId=33611 And yes, the styrofoam incubators can be iffy--but they are the model that is usually within the price range of most casual hobbyists. I even shelled out the money for an automatic egg turner unit, and got an even WORSE hatch rate, so I went back to turning the eggs three times a day by hand. I DID invest in a good hygrometer and digital thermometer last year, and saw an improvement in the hatch rate. I have a friend on another forum that had a power outage the last three days of her hatch and so no power to the incubator...so she kept the 4 Silkie eggs she was trying to hatch in her bra! One hatched, believe it or not! Of course, NOTHING beats Mother Nature, hens work best! Have you looked into borrowing incubators from local 4H, agricultural colleges, schools, etc.? As for chicken size, bantams are small--they average a pound or so. Standard birds weigh about 4-6 pounds. Depends on the breeds, of course. My chicken site has tons of pics of my birds so you can kind see how big they are. Where ever you get your eggs, FRESH eggs will have the best hatch rate, so don't get eggs and then try and hatch them weeks later--get them just before you are ready to go. Velvet ~:> |

sydalicious: I'm an IDIOT. My local feed store has chicken, quail and duck eggs for sale, all fertile, if you want to skip the whole 'meeting strangers' thing. :) Here is their address--but they say GET THERE FIRST THING IN THE MORNING if you want eggs--they have people waiting at the door when they open to purchase their eggs and cannot guarantee you eggs otherwise. Here's their info: Blacksmith's Corner They are an old-timey feed store, with lots of stuff (incubators!) and animals--check out their poultry in the back to see where your eggs are coming from. :) Of course, you are still welcome to some of my eggs if you want, I could even meet you there. Whatever you want. Heck, I'm there all the time anyway! Come to think of it, they are getting in baby chicks soon--! :) Velvet ~:> |

thank you all so much these tips are amazing! Seramas ~ thanks for the tips on the duck eggs. when you say the indoor temperature shouldnt fluctuate, do you mean the temp of the room im keeping them in? also, is there a specific reason as to why they cant be incubated with the chicken and quail? that is the point of the experiment. if they cant i understand, just wondering why. lastly, how do you "turn" eggs? how much do you turn them and why do you need to do it in the first place? i wont be able to turn them 3x a day, definitely not 5 or 7x a day because of school. does the turning have to occur at equal intervals? or can i just turn them maybe twice in the morning and them 3x during the afternoon when im home from school? Velvet ~ ONCE AGAIN thank you all so much these tips are so helpful! im so gratefulllll. :D |

Wow, turning duck eggs SEVEN times a day?! Are duck mamas on crack, or something?! *L* sydalicious, follow the instructions for your particular incubator + type of egg. Yes, eggs MUST be turned. You just reach in and GENTLY rotate the egg to turn them. Chicken eggs should be turned at least twice a day, at about the same time each day (say, 8AM and 8PM). I've found I get a better hatch when turning the eggs THREE times a day--I just turn mine at 8AM, 2PM and 8PM (like chicken mamas, I get to sleep at night!). Here's a link to my chicken site section on how I hatch eggs, it includes turning instructions and a pic of the egg turning chart I use: http://jackshenhouse.com/VSChickHensBroodiesChicks.htm The penciled X and O marks on your eggs are important, so you can tell if you've turned them or not. :) Also, if the incubator gets bumped you can tell at a glance which side should be 'up'. They also come in handy at hatch time, to help you see if the eggs are moving. Here are what my incubators look like, the black thing on the right is a webcam pointed through the viewing port: I just post my egg turning chart on the wall next to the 'bators: Loaded and ready to go: Now: This bears saying--don't be heartbroken if you get little to no hatching, or if the chicks hatch but then don't make it. Hatching eggs seems pretty easy, but there are all sorts of ways things can go wrong when humans do it. If they don't make it, don't beat yourself up about it. Read all you can about incubation, talk to people on forum, learn all you can so you are prepared. Make sure and have a brooder box ready and waiting for them after the hatch, and keep your quail, chicks and ducks separate--tiny quail can get trampled. Also, baby ducks do NOT need water enough to swim in right away, it takes a certain number of days for them to start producing and get their feathers coated with the body oil they make that repels water. Also, baby chicks and quail can easily drown in water dishes, so take care. That said, hatching chicks is VERY exciting and fun. Have a great time! :) Velvet ~:> |
I havn't read all the posts, but in case someone hasn't mentioned it, duck eggs take longer than chicken eggs, and the humidity needs to be higher. I can't really remember the details, hopefully one of the others has touched on this. They certainly keep better notes than me. Brendasue |
I keep very detailed records on all my birds and incubation process, this enables me to get the optimum hatches. When I breed wood ducks for release every eggs was important. The instruction I gave are the from my notes of 20 years ago. When doing it this way I had 98.2% success. The Michigan DNR program was happy if they could get 70%. |

Velvet ~ Thanks so much for the pictures. it helps a bunch!! :) Again with the turning, i would only be able to turn them 1-2x a day because of school. i dont want to ask our house keeper to do it in the middle of the day because im afraid something might go wrong (she is 75 and a bit hard of hearing). the X and O marks -- are they for keeping track of which side goes up, or seeing which you've already turned? well i guess i will just check your site. Also, thank you for giving me the address of the egg place, but my mom and i are going to her friend's house to get the eggs. Olga (the friend) has fertilized eggs and gets them from the same place every time. i am also going to candle them at her house instead of taking them home and doing it there. speaking of candling, how many times during incubation should i do it? or none at all?? And the brooder boxes. what do i make them out of? what should be inside to accomodate the chicks? how big should they be? different for each specie of bird? plus, what food/water should i put, if any. Lastly, your take on incubating the ducks seperately?? ~*THANKS SO MUCH. you are all amazing and i am so grateful for all your help! |

sydalicious, you really MUST turn the eggs at LEAST two times a day during the hatch. Three is best, but no less than two for sure. Otherwise you just aren't going to have a successful hatch--the turning keeps the developing chick from sticking to the inside of the shell and dying. You don't want to go to all the effort and then have nearly fully developed chicks that die in the shell just short of hatch, do you? Of course not. Just turn the eggs before and after school. It only takes a minute. :) I personally don't candle my eggs, because my hens lay eggs with darker shells that are impossible to see through--also, I am concerned about handling the eggs too much and either dropping them or letting them get too chilled. So I just wait and see what comes out on hatch day. :) I figure if I'm already doing everything I can, and correctly, me candling isn't going to do me any good since I can't see through the shells. But if you get some light-colored eggs and want to candle, by all means try it--here is a site with candling info and great pics: http://pubs.caes.uga.edu/caespubs/pubcd/b1166-w.html I use great big cardboard boxes for brooder boxes, and just throw them away when I'm done with them. I've got info and pics on my site about how I do my brooder box setups. I just use a large piece of chicken wire for a top (unless you have small children, cats or dogs that might get to the chicks, then use something sturdier) that I can lift on and off. I also like to cut a window in the side of the box and hot glue a piece of hardware cloth over it so the chicks can see out--being n a box for weeks without being able to see out is BORING! And overcrowding and boredom in chicks can lead to pecking, which is a bad thing. Basic brooder box setup: In action! :) Here it is from the outside, Millie my Belgian d'Uccle is visiting the chicks: You can easily use wire to partition off a large box: Velvet ~:> |

They have been innovators since 1928.
The year American retailer and textile manufacturer Marshall Field built a loom capable of recreating the detailed craftsmanship of a hand-woven rug. From the moment the first Karastan came off the loom (2:02 p.m., April 8, 1928), their name became synonymous with elegant machine-made rugs that rivaled their handmade counterparts.
So far advanced was the new manufacturing process that the trade press referred to their rugs as "Mystery Rugs." To share the "mystery" of these rugs with the public, Karastan created a large version of its Kirman pattern for the 1933-34 World's Fair in Chicago. But instead of putting it on display so visitors could simply admire its beauty, Karastan did the unthinkable. They invited the world to walk on it. And so the world did.
More than 5 million people left their footprints, spills and ground-in food stains all over the rug. Then it was time for cleanup. They cleaned half the rug so people could see how well the rugs recover. The rug still exists in the same state today—one side almost unrecognizably filthy, the other returned to its original beauty and luster.
To prove that the demonstration was no fluke, they did it again. This time more than 9 million visitors walked on their rugs at the New York World's Trade Fair of 1939-40. It's no wonder their rugs became known as "The Wonder Rugs of America." |
