Summary - Chicken Tikka Masala

...Homework – Selective Summary In the extract "Chicken Tikka Massala" from a speach given by the former British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook, which was reprinted by The Guardian on 19 April 2001, the orator describes the aspects that, in his opinion, define the British as a race. He starts by stating that the British are not what one would commonly understand by a race, but a collective of different ones, i.e. communities that have migrated to Britain in the past and now form part of it. According to Cook, there are only few people in England who are indigenously British. Most have foreign ancestors and are influenced by other nations that have politically, confessionally and historically influenced Britain. The orator gives various examples of countries that had a noticeable influence on the Britons, mentioning the Saxons, Angles, Normans, Dutch and, most explicitly, Richard the Lionheart, the British paragon of a man of honour, who, for his part, spoke French and was allied with the Jewish community. As stated by him, in Britain's capital London, which is home to over 30 ethnic communities, more than 300 languages are spoken, which underlines his intention of depicting the British as a people made up of an abundance of races. Cook believes that immigration is important both for ethical and economical reasons. It strengthens a country's economy and increases its attractivity for international companies. Furthermore, moderately legalising immigration provides the...

...expressing my feelings toward your message, not only was I disgusted but humiliated to be British. You claim that “foreign workers flood into Britain”. But if you look at how many people in the UK were born here, you would know it was only 11.9%.so what does that indicates? Yes there are millions of our people who are unemployed, this does not give you’re the reason to blame foreign workers for being active and ready to do the job. If us, British people do not take action to actually find ourselves jobs and something that will benefit our country, then we can’t expect jobs to automatically come to our doorstep. Lets be honest almost every thing in British are from immigrants, for example; take away shops are mostly own by Indians or chines, Chicken tikka masala knocked off top spot by Chinese stir-fry as Britain's favorite dish. The clothes you’re wearing are probably made by chines immigrants if not other foreigners. Yet you have the decency to create a repulsive image of those people who you call “immigrants” and live off them. In your message you claimed that other people get better things than white “Native British are now treated like second-class citizens in our own country, whilst asylums-seekers and immigrant are pushed to the front of the queue for housing benefits and jobs” actually immigrants over recent years has brought tangible economic and fiscal benefits to Britain, this means immigrants have made money for the UK not taken money from it.

...appealing/unappealing to different types of chicken farmers? Appealing: Like many other fowl, the chickens are social birds and their society has a definite social structure. They establish a hierarchical social organization, though fighting and pecking after the birds reach sexual maturity. The comb on the head of chicken is a means of preserving the peck order, and a submissive bird raising its head too high would be pecked by one or more its superiors until its head was lowered. The more productive strains tend to be more cannibalistic, even sometimes had to put a sack over the extremely productive one. In order to reduce chicken mortality due to cannibalism , the chicken farmers use debeaking, which doesn’t interfere with the formation of the peck order but reduces the efficiency of beak as a weapon. The debeaking process make the chicken subject considerate trauma resulting in a temporary weight loss and the retardation of egg production for at least a week. The debeaked chicken would enter a permanent regression or own its deadly weapon again if the beak is cut too short or too long. Compare to debeaking operation, ODI contact lens which would cause cataract to poultry is the product to actually confront the cause of chicken cannibalization rather than just minimize its effects. And the red color environment caused by lenses affects the chicken’s ability to act out its aggressions.

...of egg-producing farm chickens. This development came after an accidental discovery that partially blind chickens demonstrate more manageable and productive behaviors that are valuable to chicken farmers. Market Trends As within many industries, the poultry and egg production market has evolved dramatically in the last century— from small backyard barnyards to today’s high-production farms of more than 2.5 million birds. Due to the varied demands and operations necessitated by this current, broad spectrum of customers (here, chicken farmers), the current market is best understood by segmenting it first by flock size. As shown in Exhibit 4 of the case study, we see the percentage growth (decline) of each flock size segment as it relates to farm size and chicken count from 1964 to 1996. Based on this data, farms with flock sizes less than 10,000 chickens have dramatically reduced in this time period while farms with flock sizes larger than 10,000 have consistently grown in each of the four high-volume segments. Additionally, the market data also demonstrates a significant progression of concentration both regionally as well as in the nation’s number of industry producers. In 1974, 80% of the laying hens in the United States were housed in just 3% of the country’s chicken farms. Regionally speaking, the farms have evolved into concentrations in where just three states—California, North Carolina, and Georgia—account for more 25% of the nation’s chickens. Finally, additional...

...You’re cooking your chicken wrong. Forty percent of 120 participants in a new study conducted by the University of California, Davis are, anyway. Christine Bruhn, PhD, director of the Center for Consumer Research at UC Davis, says she was “really surprised” at the number, which represents the amount of participants who undercook their chicken. "I know people do that on purpose with burgers, but with chicken I always thought people were more aware of making sure it was fully cooked,” she told us. The majority of participants who undercooked their meat were a full 14 degrees below the the recommended 165 degree F threshold, and more than half of those who grilled their chicken were 18 degrees under. “The grill is really hot; it’s harder to control and that chicken usually looks pretty darn cooked on the outside,” says Bruhn of the common misstep. The problem is that this fowl fumble can lead to illness, including the dreaded salmonella infection. So what can you do to make sure your signature stir fry doesn’t make anyone sick? Below, Bruhn shares the basic rules of the game with us. Use a meat thermometer. Slicing through the meat to check for color won’t get the job done. “Consumers do it all the time, but going off appearance just doesn’t work,” says Bruhn. And just because your recipe says to cook a chicken breast for 10 minutes doesn’t mean that’ll get you to a safe temperature. “That doesn’t account for how thin or thick the meat is or how hot your stove is,” she adds...

...lenses for chickens. These lenses offer farmers a unique cost saving opportunity and are more humane and efficient than the current de-beaking method. ODI, with help from New World Plastics has developed this commercially viable technology to reduce cannibalism by inducing astigmatism. With a patent holding off competition for at least three years, ODI needs to decide how to price contact lenses to ensure high adoption and profitability which will fuel ODI’s ability to circumvent competition through further investment in R&D – a key requirement to be able to establish themselves as a multiproduct, multimarket company which can provide effective service anywhere in the country. ODI should initially target Large Farms with 100,000+ birds with this product at a price of $0.16/pair because this contact lens technology yields the following superior results versus current debeaking method: greater reduction in cannibalism by 4.5%, zero chicken traumas, no risk versus medium risk with de-beaking, and a reduction in feed costs. There are several segments within the poultry industry – Small, Medium, and Large farms characterized by 10,000 or less birds, 10,000-50,000 birds, and 50,000+ birds, respectively. Based on the case data, the US Poultry industry is consolidating at a rapid rate. For instance, in 1964, 1.2M farms represented 38.3% of the entire chicken industry and managed 343M birds. Five years later, the number of farms managing roughly the same number of chickens shrunk to...

The Red Wheelbarrow

...The Red Wheelbarrow so much depends upon a red wheel barrow glazed with rain water beside the white chickens. -- William Carlos Williams (1923) To Paint a Picture Just as the opening line of William Carlos William’s 1923 poem “The Red Wheelbarrow” reads, “So much depends.” So much depends on the reader’s interpretation of this poem. How was the author intending his work to be read? One can argue that Williams wished his audience to paint a mental picture of the poem, and then draw their own conclusions based on the imagery contained therein. The poem, consisting of only sixteen words, follows a basic metrical structure. It consists of eight lines, which are broken into four verses. Each verse consists of a dimeter, followed by a monometer. At first reading, the student may want to read the two lines of each verse together as one. Reading the poem in this fashion does not bring attention to its individual parts. The student should focus on the lineation of the poem while reading it, and follow the metrical structure that is laid out. By slowing down and taking in the poem on line at a time, the reader will more easily be able to paint a mental picture of the poem. This seems to have been how the author intended the poem to be read. The imagery of “The Red Wheelbarrow” can be compared to that of a classic painting. The painting is easy on the eyes, nice to look at. If the viewer can picture himself inside the canvas setting, he may be able to...
