They can be ruined by small mistakes such as turning them wrong end up or shaking them. Location:ĭuring incubation, keep in mind that eggs are very delicate. Do plan to use them right away, though, because the likelihood of hatching decreases if too much time passes after they are laid.īefore you start incubating, read the entire instruction manual that comes with your incubator. Warmth will not be a issue until you actually start incubating the eggs. Therefore, it is safe to ship the eggs to you even in below freezing weather. Kathleen McCormack is editor of and lives in the Rochester, NY area.The first thing to know is that the quail eggs stay dormant until the incubation process starts. ![]() We were able to choose the best home for them - a family farm just down the road from us where we now get farm-fresh eggs delivered to us from the very chicks we hatched ourselves! In fact, within minutes of posting them, we had a flood of inquiries. Luckily, it was incredibly easy to find a home for them on Craigslist. Our town does not allow backyard chickens. You are welcome to keep your chicks (Rentacoop has the supplies to set up your own coop in the backyard), but check with your town ordinances. Be prepared to incorporate it into your learning experience.Īfter a two weeks of watching our chicks grow, it was time to find them a lifetime home. Warning: There is a possibility some of your eggs may not hatch or that young chicks may die. ![]() Unfortunately this meant having a tough conversation with my four-year-old that part of the life cycle of any animal means death, sometimes death at a young age. Though we tried to keep food and water within easy reach, even attempting to handfeed him, the poor thing just couldn’t make it. One chick never quite got up on his feet and we dubbed him Floppy for the way he “swam” about the brooder. Hah – you’ve never seen kids run so fast to the bathroom sink! But our rule was that you could not handle the eggs (for candling them) or the chicks unless you washed your hands before and after your visit. Getting small children to wash their hands regularly and to cover their sneezes is a chore. Knowing that this was a temporary situation and required relatively low maintenance was a good first foray. My kids are young, and we’re not sure yet if they’re ready for the big time responsibility of a permanent pet like a dog. This was an excellent intro into the idea of having a pet. But after only a few weeks of owning them, the chicks were given to a farm. I filled the wait by telling stories of my kids’ births. It was like watching television the way we sat around the incubator cheering on the tired little ones as they mustered their strength for the next big push. Even when we saw the first pip in each egg we still had to wait a few hours for the chick to fully hatch. But the 21-day incubation is not the only wait time. Put the hatch day on your calendar because they will hatch exactly on that day. In fact, the incubator works like a Ronco machine – set it and forget it. The chicks hatch at 21 days like clockwork. Here are some of the resources we used to enhance the learning experience.Ĭhicken - Backyard chicken blog, everything you need to know from hatching to raising Following a hatching calendar, we were amazed to learn that there was something new developing in the egg every day. Of course, my main objective in partaking in this project was for my kids (ages 1 and 4) to have a science lesson in the life cycle of an animal. Well, here’s the obvious one: the life cycle of a chicken. I should have known the experience would be so much more enriching than just a science lesson.ġ. My intention in signing up for the program was to simply show my kids how oviparous animals are born. After which you can keep them for egg laying in your own backyard (RentaCoop can help you with this as well) or find them a good home on a local farm. After allowing them to rest a bit, tranfer them to the brooder and enjoy their first few weeks of development. ![]() After 21 days, look for the pip in the shell and watch those babies being born. The machine will rotate the eggs itself and count down to hatch day. You place the eggs in the incubator and plug it in. RentaCoop sends you everything you need: incubator, eggs, brooder, chicken feed, water and food dispensers, bedding, heat lamp, everything. KidsOutAndAbout teamed up with RentaCoop to show just how much kids (and parents) can learn from the miraculous and miraculously easy process of incubating and hatching chicken eggs in your own home. If you're concerned about schools cutting "extras" in favor of more test practice or if you're homeschooling your kids, RentaCoop offers this amazing science lesson at home, all supplies included. Remember in second grade when your class incubated duck eggs and watched them hatch? Remember how incredible that was? Yet your kids may not get the same experience in school.

![]() The Toy Story franchise includes five CGI-animated films, with the first two coming in 19, the third coming in 2010 and the fourth coming in 2019, as well as a prequel film, Lightyear (2022), which was released in 2020. Josh Cooley and Andrew Stanton, who wrote the screenplay for Toy Story 3, co-wrote the film. Toy Story Zero is John Lasseter’s first feature film as a director, having previously directed Toy Story, Toy Story 2, and Toy Story 3. It has received widespread praise for its unique style and clever jokes. Toy Story Zero is unique in that it is Pixar’s first feature film, the first entirely Happy-animated feature film directed by John Lasseter, and the first feature film from Pixar. This toy collection was discovered by a toy collector named Al and taken to his museum, where it is the only one left. Woody, a toy cowboy, is left behind by his toys when the family goes on vacation, along with his toys Andy, Buzz, and Lotso. However, given the success of the Toy Story franchise, it is unlikely that Toy Story 4 will be the last movie in the series. The answer to this question is currently unknown. The team at Disney is confident that Toy Story 5 will be well received by both fans and players. Although there is no word on whether or not Toy Story 5 will be released, we do know that Pixar is working on it. The second film in the series, Toy Story 2, was followed by Toy Story 3 and Toy Story 4, and Cars was followed by Cars 2 and Cars 3. Pixar has released sequels to their films in the past, even if the original is their final film in a series. However, Toy Story 5 will not be put on hold indefinitely. Because Pixar has not announced any other projects as sequels or continuations of the Toy Story series, it is unlikely that Toy Story 4 will be the final film in the series. In the meantime, fans can enjoy the Toy Story franchise on TV, with the Toy Story That Time Forgot special airing on ABC in 2014 and the Toy Story Toons series airing on Disney Channel.īased on Pixar’s current release schedule, Toy Story 4 appears to be the final film in the series. The last Toy Story movie came out in 2010, so it may be a while before we see another one. There has been no confirmation of a Toy Story 5, but considering the popularity of the franchise it seems likely that there will be another installment at some point. Woody is one of the few toys that have ever been made, and he was only created as a prototype. Woody’s boot contained a note written by him. Andy’s father was also known as Andy, Andy, or Andy Senior. Woody, the main character in Toy Story, was given to Andy by his father first (Andy’s mother refers to Woody as a “family toy”). We’ve never directly addressed it, despite the fact that we’ve never directly addressed it. Lee Unkrich: That is how it has always been. According to an analyst, Woody and Buzz represent Andy’s past and future lives, represented by male authority figures. It is doubtful whether Andy’s father saw the end of the marriage depicted in Toy Story, as he did not appear. Andy’s father is thought to not be dead, but rather to have left the family for some other reason. Andy, Molly, and their mother are shown in family photos around the house without a father, as are the other two children. ![]() Andy’s sister in Toy Story is four years old.Īndy appears to be without a father in all three Toy Story films. ![]() ![]() Your driver version might limit your CUDA capabilities.

As of NVIDIA Container Toolkit 1.7.0 support for Jetson plaforms I didn’t need to dig out a bundt pan or worry about my large chef’s knife slipping. I videoed my first attempt with the OXO Corn Prep Peeler and clocked in at 1 minute and 21 seconds to remove the kernels from five cobs! Better yet, I remained unscathed and with all ten fingers. You can have fresh corn kernels off the cob, in the pan, and on your plate in under 10 minutes. ![]() So much so that I’ve made OXO’s recipe for Esquites several times over the last few days. I was invited to try the new OXO Corn Prep Peeler and I’m in love. Think of Esquites as a warm Mexican Street Corn salad that gives you all of the Mexican Street Corn flavors you want without the mess.įrankly, after trying every method to get corn kernels quickly and easily the cob- my teeth have remained the safest way for me. I usually order Esquites when I’m out to avoid the messiness, Esquites is Mexican Street Corn off of the cob. We got decent results.Mexican Street Corn is all the rage these days and I love it. ![]() We had to concentrate to keep the ring perfectly centered around the core of the cob, or else we cut unevenly or too deep, leaving pith on the kernels. We simply placed the end of an ear of corn into the blade and then rotated the corn with one hand and the ring with another to cut off the kernels. The blades themselves were all sharp and cut easily, but the results were uneven it was hard to gauge just how deeply to dig in with the blade, so some kernels were sliced off with the hard pith attached, and others were left half on the cob, requiring an extra pass to slice off the rest.Īnother model, consisting of a circular blade enclosed by a ring of plastic, showed more promise. In theory, they made sense: Run the blade down the side of the cob and off come the kernels. Four of the strippers resembled vegetable peelers with curved blades. The rest of the strippers were safer to use, and most did in fact remove corn kernels from the cob. We gave up trying to use this device after three attempts. Pushing hard wasn’t a good idea: With no guard with which to hold the corn, there was a distinct risk that our fingers would slide full force into the blade if we did so. Every time an ear of corn hit the blade, it stopped short and refused to go further unless we pushed very hard. This corn mandoline was also the only gadget that truly made us fear for our fingers. Built like a long, narrow wooden mandoline, it mashed the corn instead of slicing it off, no matter what we did to adjust the positions of the blade and corn. Technically speaking, almost all the gadgets were capable of cutting corn off the cob. So we bought seven models, priced from about $7.50 to about $24.00, and used them to shear off kernels from ear upon ear of both cooked and raw corn. Since we last tested corn strippers, our former favorite was discontinued, so it seemed like a good time to take a new look at these gadgets. These specialized gadgets promise to make the whole process of cutting both raw and cooked corn off the cob easier, safer, and more foolproof than using a knife. ![]() It can also be slightly dangerous-many of us worry about our knives slipping as they slice through the juicy corn. And it’s prone to error: Cut too deep and get some of the hard, fibrous material that connects the kernels to the cob, or cut too shallow and lose out on some of that sweet, sweet corn. The process is often messy, scattering kernels everywhere but the bowl or cutting board you’ve placed under the corn. ![]() ![]() Materials or workmanship and normal wear and tear occurring during normal use of the Product.

Fortunately, the vehicles themselves are so much better than everything else on the road - and Tesla continues to deliver innovative, low-cost service solutions to fix its vehicles - that owners still rate Tesla at the top of the pack. Tesla’s phone key issues, panel gaps in early vehicles, road noise, seat improvements over time in most of its vehicles, issues with early Model X falcon-wing doors, Tesla Model S door handle issues, etc., etc., ad nauseam are all the symptoms of this strategy. The software is more than functional most of the time, but is expected to have bugs that rear their angry heads. The result is what we have seen in Tesla’s production vehicles - a total system that is effectively in a permanent beta state. The downside of this model - and current software development - is that, while development may happen at breakneck speeds, the vetting of the software in the millions of applicable scenarios still takes many weeks, months, and years. The downside of rapid development in the automotive industry Use of agile principles like “scrums” - or regular meetings designed to put structure around ingesting and vetting improvements - have helped Tesla to perfect its vehicles and bring innovations to market that would have taken more traditional automotive companies years if not decades to get into the hands of customers. It takes in feedback regularly, as if it thrives on new ideas, solving problems, continuous improvement and iteration. It iterates and rolls out improvements as they come. Tesla, unsurprisingly, operates like a software company. It is Tesla’s relentless pursuit of not just the best electric vehicle, but the pursuit of the best vehicle, period, that has defined its trajectory more than any other. It has instead applied the tenets of agile development to its automotive design and manufacturing processes, and in the process, it has revolutionized the industry. Tesla does not wait to roll out improvements. ![]() Tesla does not follow the long development cycles that have been the standard in the automotive industry for decades. The resulting process became known as “ agile development” and came to the Valley with its own set of “agile ninjas” that wielded their own sets of tools, standards, and language to bring stability and a new norm to the valley.Īt its core, it is this iterative software development methodology that has shaped the culture at Tesla. As the dust settled, entrepreneurs worked to redefine a set of software development best practices that would support a more standardized approach to short-cycle iterative development. This model worked for decades, but with the dot-com boom, a new generation of technologists and futurists began building solutions that could be stood up and torn down in a matter of weeks or months instead of years or decades using the new “world wide web” as a platform for communication, applications, and software development.Ĭoming out of the chaos of the dot-com boom was the dot-com bust that left the famed Northern California Silicon Valley in shambles. Enterprise tech teams were structured around these longer timelines and threw up their own gates to gather requirements, contract out the development, deploy the release, and validate solutions before handing them over to the service teams that would manage the solution for the rest of its lifetime. Software development used to be a long, drawn-out process, with teams of workers spending years if not decades to develop the next generation of the next big thing. ![]() Esskayess from Dallas, TxAnyone else notice the similarity of the percussion and string riffs in this song to those near of the end of 'Mr.Titan from Adelaide, South AustraliaIn the late 60s there was a song called 'The Legend of Xanadu' by a bunch of guys named Dave, Dee, Dozy, Mick & Titch which was a bit of a novelty song which made it all the way to No.1 in the UK, then ONJ and ELO hit No.1 in 1980 with Xanadu, making a success rate of 100% of songs with Xanadu in the title getting to No.1, in the UK art least.And the soundtrack is AWESOME!!! I NEVER get tired of watching Xanadu!!! Sincerely, Lynn Brooks This movie was and still is the best movie that was ever made!!! I got goosebumps the very first time I watched it. Lynn Brooks from Purvis, Ms 39475Xanadu, is a beautiful, magical, love story.Scoobydooby68 from ManchesterJust what are you smoking Lynn ! ?.Nevertheless, it is a guilty pleasure, Olivia sings her sweet little heart out, Gene dances up a storm, ELO rocks out, and it's all now an interesting historical period piece with a modern-day cult following. The whole thing plays like it was built by sugar-hyped six-year-olds who couldn't resist gluing on "one more cool thing," whether it fit or not. Key words from above point: "slapped together." Including one each of every kind of music genre. It was basically just thrown in for the sole purpose of Universal thumbing their nose at Disney. The studio executives made boneheaded decisions slapping this together, like with the animated sequence in the middle which just confused the bejabbers out of everybody. It was the dawn of the '80s Reagan was in office and people wanted either hard sci-fi or down-home country folk, and it was time for heavy metal and greed. It's basically a roller-disco fantasy made at a time when (a) disco, (b) roller-skating, and (c) fantasy all became as dead as fried chicken. And there's no way Xanadu would have outsold The Force, even with dialogue by Shakespeare. They blew $20 million cool ones on the budget for this in 1980! Consider that Star Wars, released just three years previously, had a budget of $11 million. The concept, story, and overall dialog is pathetic, even though everything else is great. It's a great idea, but the way this movie handles it, it's an incomprehensible traffic jam with dozens of superfluous performers milling about.For those of you who have heard of this film's reputation but not yet seen it, you might be asking yourself, "What on earth is so terrible about it?" It's famous for being a box-office flop, but what, did it stink all over? And you might even go hunting down reviews online, only to find a queue of user reviews on IMDB defending it for dear life and crying that it's not that bad. Then the two bandstands are moved together so they blend and everyone is on one bandstand, singing one song. The movie gives us one of each: Andrews Sisters clones in close harmony, and the Electric Light Orchestra in full explosion. The dance numbers in this movie do not seem to have been conceived for film.įor example: When Beck and Kelly visit the empty amphitheater, Kelly envisions a '40s band in one corner and an '80s rock group in another. Even worse, I'm afraid, is the choreography by Kenny Ortega and Jerry Trent, especially as it's viewed by Victor Kemper's camera. The movie is muddy, it's underlit, characters are constantly disappearing into shadows, and there's no zest to the movie's look. Well, Hollywood musicals have been made with thinner plot lines than this one, but rarely with less style. And that is the whole weight of the movie's ideas, except for a scene where Michael Beck visits Olivia in heaven, which looks like a computer-generated disco light show. They team up to convert a rundown old wrestling amphitheater into Xanadu, a nightclub that will combine the music of the 1940s and 1980s. That means both men are in love with the same dream girl, who, we discover, is not of this earth. In a quietly charming fantasy scene, he sings a duet with his old flame, the girl singer in the old Miller band-and, lo and behold, it's Olivia Newton-John. Kelly used to be a sideman in the Glenn Miller Orchestra (and also in the Benny Goodman and Tommy Dorsey bands, having apparently missed the Miller band's fatal last flight). ![]() That's ok, because he's met this nice older guy (Gene Kelly) who's very rich and wants to open a nightclub like the one he had back in New York in the 1940s. Beck works as a commercial artist, designing record album covers, and when he tries to include Olivia in one of his paintings he gets into trouble at work. It gives us a young man ( Michael Beck) who falls in love with the dazzling fantasy figure (Newton-John) who keeps popping up in his life.
