They pay close attention to the practicality of each technique according to affordability, ease of use, and ecological soundness. Details on construction and maintenance and resources for locating further information are included, making this an essential volume for everyone who cares about the future of Appalachia.

Albert Okura The Chicken Man

By: Albert Okura

At a growth rate of baby chick to full adult in less than two months, chickens are one of the fastest growing food source known to man. It seems that chickens were put on earth to supply the world's population with eggs and meat. This book tells the story of Albert Okura's belief that his destiny in life is to sell more chickens than anyone else in the world. Although sounding preposterous at first glance, it needs to be noted that Colonel Sanders did not sell his first franchise until he was 60 years old. Albert was born in 1951 and grew up with the fledgling fast food industry. His first full time job was working at Burger King as a hamburger cook. Recognizing that mental toughness as well as the ability to train, develop, and motivate others was critical for long term success, Albert gravitated to those who inspired him. Lessons learned from life experiences helped him realize his destiny. In 1984, at the age of 32, Albert opened a rotisserie chicken restaurant with help from his uncle. Albert has become Southern California's foremost expert on mass producing, tender and moist rotisserie chickens. Juan Pollo is now poised to go into the bigtime. This is their story.

This book contains quality recipes of proven merit. First issued in 1947, steady demand has caused it to be frequently reprinted, and it is now reissued in a new, much enlarged edition. Anyone who has the job of providing attrative, nourishing meals to large numbers of people, will find this book useful; it will be invaluable to those without long professional experience. Every recipe in the book is the product of prolonged testing, and the quantities specified for preparing servings of 100-125 portions may be relied on. In addition, the recipes are set out with great clarity, and directions are simple and easy to follow. Quantities for each ingredient are given by both weight and bulk measures. In addition to many wholly new recipes, the revised edition includes a number of alternative richer and more elaborate versions of popular recipes, thus widening the usefulness of the book. A new section on frozen foods has been included, along with suggestions for using other prepared foods developed in recent years. In designing the new edition, every effort has been made to make it even more easy to read than before, for example, bold type has been used for ingredients. The binding is durable cloth boards, which will open flat. Attractive line drawings at section openings introduce a touch of humour into the business of feeding a crowd.

The Poetry of George Albert Leddy

Featuring Tales of the Rugged Trails

By: George Albert Leddy

meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document"meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 10"meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 10"link rel="File-List" href="file:///C:%5CUsers%5CChris%5CAppData%5CLocal%5CTemp%5Cmsohtml1%5C01%5Cclip_filelist.xml"!--[if gte mso 9] Normal 0 MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 ![endif]--!--[if !mso] ![endif]--!--[if gte mso 10] ![endif]-- The Poetry of George Albert Leddy (1883-1967) was first published in 1998 by his grandson Chris Abair, and is a “significant find” in the genre popularized by Robert Service—author of “The Cremation of Sam McGee.” The poems are mostly detailed stories, ingeniously crafted in perfect lyrical rhyme, offering a unique perspective on early twentieth-century America—a harsh but simpler time. In the oral tradition of storytelling, these poetic ballads are meant to be memorized and recited “from the heart”—some take 15 minutes to perform! The poems cover a variety of themes: The series “Tales of the Rugged Trails" are grisly barroom ballads set in the Arctic, Out West, and on the sea. It includes "The Voice of the Bar” and “License or Prohibition" which deal with the evils of alcohol. “Cook and Peary" debates the question of who first discovered the North Pole. “The Blue and the Gray" and “Decoration Day" have a patriotic theme. A series of poems on the lighter side include titles like “The Butterfly and the Rose" and “The Old Picket Fence.” And there are many humorous personal poems. A new generation is discovering that poetry is a performing art, as evident by the popularity of poetry slams, rapping, and Poetry Out-Loud competitions. Young people are realizing that poetry is meant to be heard like a song and recited like an actor performs lines. Still, many people today find poetry boring and hard to understand. The poetry of George Albert Leddy will surely go a long way to help change that perception.

Mauri Ola

Contemporary Polynesian Poems in English

By: Albert Wendt,Reina Whaitiri,Robert Sullivan

Mauri Ola: Contemporary Polynesian Poems in English is a follow-up volume to the highly acclaimed Whetu Moana, the first anthology of Polynesian poems in English edited by Polynesians. The new book includes poetry written over the last 25 years by more than 80 writers from Aotearoa, Hawai'i, Tonga, Samoa, the Cook Islands, Niue, Tokelau, Tahiti and Rotuma &– some living in these islands and some dispersed around the globe. Together with works by established and celebrated poets, the editors have introduced the fresh voices of a younger generation. The anthology includes selections from poets including Alistair Te Ariki Campbell, Sia Figiel, J. C. Sturm, Konai Helu Thaman, Haunani-Kay Trask, Hone Tuwhare and Albert Wendt. The late Hawaiian poet Wayne Kaumualii Westlake is represented here by a unique set of concrete poems and experimental verse. Tusiata Avia tells tales of Nafanua in different settings around the world; Rangi Faith imagines &‘First Landing'; Imaikalani Kalahele writes a letter to his brother; Brandy Nalani McDougall discusses &‘cooking Captain Cook'; Karlo Mila, eating chocolate, watches &‘paul holmes apologise for calling kofi annan a darkie'; Robert Sullivan writes against the grain; and Apirana Taylor follows zigzag roads. Ranging from the lyrical and sensual to the harsh and gritty, from the political to the personal, the poems in Mauri Ola are infused with vivid imagery, claims of identity, laments, rages and celebrations that confront again a colonial past and a global present.
