Download PDF Tastes Like Chicken A History Of America S Favorite Bird eBook. You can read online on your kindle, Android, iPhone, iPad. From the domestication of the bird nearly ten thousand years ago to its current status as our go-to meat, the history of this seemingly commonplace bird is anything but ordinary. How did chicken achieve the culinary ubiquity it enjoys today? It’s hard to imagine, but there was a point in history, not terribly long ago, that individual people each consumed less than ten pounds of chicken per year. Today, those numbers are strikingly different: we consumer nearly twenty-five times as much chicken as our great-grandparents did. Collectively, Americans devour 73.1 million pounds of chicken in a day, close to 8.6 billion birds per year. How did chicken rise from near-invisibility to being in seemingly "every pot," as per Herbert Hoover's famous promise? Emelyn Rude explores this fascinating phenomenon in Tastes Like Chicken. With meticulous research, Rude details the ascendancy of chicken from its humble origins to its centrality on grocery store shelves and in restaurants and kitchens. Along the way, she reveals startling key points in its history, such as the moment it was first stuffed and roasted by the Romans, how the ancients’ obsession with cockfighting helped the animal reach Western Europe, and how slavery contributed to the ubiquity of fried chicken today. In the spirit of Mark Kurlansky’s Cod and Bee Wilson's Consider the Fork, Tastes Like Chicken is a fascinating, clever, and surprising discourse on one of America’s favorite foods.

Download PDF On Point Spotting The Signs Of A Peaked Rooster eBook. You can read online on your kindle, Android, iPhone, iPad. Each cocker will have a different approach and style when conditioning their gamefowls for competitions, but the goal is the same: to win. A good breeder or cocker knows what is best for his feathered warriors, and is able to acquire this learning through combined experience and science. When asked if all fighting cocks, regardless of their lineage, must undergo one and the same winning formula, he will simply smile and say: “Each lineage has its own conditioning requirements, and each bird has its own unique winning formula.” Each and every game bird has its own time of being in a pointed condition or at its peak during a certain period. So you can always take seriously this valuable advice from experts: “Fight your chickens when they're ready, and not when you're ready.” This book, therefore, aims to give you a complete understanding of how to detect the signs reflected in your roosters indicative of being in their peak fighting form, as well as give you a quick review on lineages of game birds with their corresponding fighting styles, conditioning, and pointing requirements.

Beginning in the jungles of Southeast Asia, trekking through the Middle East, traversing the Pacific, Lawler discovers the secrets behind the chicken's transformation from a shy, wild bird into an animal of astonishing versatility, capable of serving our species' changing needs.

Download PDF High Risk Homosexual eBook. You can read online on your kindle, Android, iPhone, iPad. This witty memoir traces a touching and often hilarious spiralic path to embracing a gay, Latinx identity against a culture of machismo—from a cockfighting ring in Nicaragua to cities across the U.S.—and the bath houses, night clubs, and drag queens who help redefine pride I’ve always found the definition of machismo to be ironic, considering that pride is a word almost unanimously associated with queer people, the enemy of machistas . . . In a world desperate to erase us, queer Latinx men must find ways to hold on to pride for survival, but excessive male pride is often what we are battling, both in ourselves and in others. A debut memoir about coming of age as a gay, Latinx man, High-Risk Homosexual opens in the ultimate anti-gay space: Edgar Gomez’s uncle’s cockfighting ring in Nicaragua, where he was sent at thirteen years old to become a man. Readers follow Gomez through the queer spaces where he learned to love being gay and Latinx, including Pulse nightclub in Orlando, a drag queen convention in Los Angeles, and the doctor’s office where he was diagnosed a “high-risk homosexual.” With vulnerability, humor, and quick-witted insights into racial, sexual, familial, and professional power dynamics, Gomez shares a hard-won path to taking pride in the parts of himself he was taught to keep hidden. His story is a scintillating, beautiful reminder of the importance of leaving space for joy.

Download PDF 14 Days Keep eBook. You can read online on your kindle, Android, iPhone, iPad. We have included in this eBook special exercises, diet, and general preparation concept that you can’t find in other published books on conditioning of game birds. Like the modified plyometrics for game birds, for example, with some terminologies that you probably only heard for the first time such as the run-a-hurdle pen, unstable rock-a-wire hanging, squat-a-kick jumping, come from behind burst, skid-a-fly landfall, cock-a-barrel fly, and rock-a-bye chase. The introduction of the plyometric exercise to a game bird has once been an underrated notion, or worse, even ignored. It seems that only a few people in the cockfighting world are interested in this at first, until the moment when science approved the effectiveness of the said workout in human athletes that many people have thought about introducing the same technique for game birds. Game birds and human athletes have more things in common than we thought. But the most striking similarity between the two is that both are competitors. You're making a great decision if you choose to keep this 14 Days Keep eBook as a guide. We are happy for this opportunity to help you achieve your goal through this eBook. Your success will also be ours, as this will push us to try harder and deepen what we can contribute to the evolution of the game bird, as it competes in this blood sport that we all love. And for all of these reasons, they are important to us.

Download PDF Gamefowl Genetics eBook. You can read online on your kindle, Android, iPhone, iPad. Breeding gamefowls, like in any other field of human endeavor, is never without a challenge. Maintaining and improving bloodlines has become one of the most singled-out goals of many cockers and breeders. While there are many different breeding methods you can choose from, the goal is the same. It has something to do with the outcome of a particular mating that you were able to predict with reasonable accuracy from the very beginning. You can freely breed your favorite gamefowls in any way you want, but you can only consider yourself a successful breeder when, in doing so, the desired results outweigh all the risks. This book, therefore, aims to educate, for the most part, the ordinary “rooster man” or sabongero, as well as the neophyte gamefowl breeder, on the proper gamefowl genetics selection, pros and cons of different gamefowl breeding methods, and my personal bias on the best breeding method involving gamefowls.

Download PDF How To Breed Raise And Condition Gamefowls That Win Battles eBook. You can read online on your kindle, Android, iPhone, iPad. Cockfighting has become a very difficult sport to compete, and there is a great need for cockers and breeders to produce the best game birds that can win battles. There is no need to settle for anything less and everyone who loves cockfighting or "sabong" should know what it takes to win and be consistent with it. But there are those who still have no idea what constitutes a suitable game bird for modern cockfighting, which goes back to how a brood cock and a brood hen come together. And while most of us could easily judge game birds by their outward appearance, it is not as important as the blood, brain, and spirit inside, nor is all good game birds exactly the same. But we can always try, to any extent or degree, to recognize the principles of construction that should guide us in the right direction. Our effort has been to highlight through this book the basic and most important knowledge that can be used as a reference on how to raise, breed, and condition game birds, as well as cite common problems every cocker and breeder can find from the shell to the pit and how to overcome them.
