  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.

  • 2008 10 Back-Breed.Pdf
    The University of Georgia Cooperative Extension Service College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences / Athens, Georgia 30602-4356 JULY 2008 BACKYARD FLOCK TIP . CHOOSING THE BEST CHICKEN BREED FOR YOUR FLOCK When establishing a backyard flock it is important to choose the best breed of chicken to meet your goals whether that is egg production, meat production, dual purpose, or exhibition/ornamental. Chicken breeds differ in their production abilities, and it is important to take this into consideration when choosing a breed for your backyard flock. For example, if you choose leghorn varieties, then there should be an abundance of eggs produced, but if meat is your objective then you will be greatly disappointed. There are approximately 105 chicken breeds and 8 turkey breeds recognized by the American Poultry Association (APA). Some breeds are better egg producers than others, while some are better meat producers. Sometimes flocks can be kept purely for fun, and in that case an ornamental breed may be of interest. The APA publishes a book called the “American Standard of Perfection” which contains descriptions for all the recognized purebred fowl. While the APA recognizes bantam breeds, there is another organization, the American Bantam Association (ABA) which specializes in bantam chickens. The ABA publishes the “Bantam Standard” which gives descriptions of 57 breeds, 85 plumage patterns and more than 400 varieties of bantam chickens and ducks. While most of the time it appears that the groups recognize the same bantam varieties, there is the possibility that one group may recognize a color variety that the other has not.

Written by: Dr. Jacquie Jacob, University of Kentucky Raising chickens can be fun and educational for the entire family. Whether you are starting a new flock or adding to an existing one, a first task is to choose the chicken breed you want to raise. A breed is a group of individuals with the same physical characteristics. Several breeds of chickens exist, and those breeds are further categorized into classes. A class is a group of breeds originating in the same geographical location. Five classes of chicken breeds are American, Asiatic, English, Mediterranean, and Continental. Breeds not included in these classes are included in the Any Other Standard Breed class. There are many things to consider before selecting a chicken breed for your flock. The kind of chicken you select depends on whether you want meat, eggs, or exhibition poultry. All breeds of chickens around today are descended from the Red Jungle Fowl of Southeast Asia. Generations of genetic selection have developed breeds specializing in specific characteristics, as illustrated in Figure 1. For example, the mature weight of the Red Jungle Fowl is only about 2 pounds, whereas today's chicken breeds developed specifically for meat production can reach a market weight of 6.6 pounds in only eight weeks. Similarly, while the sexually mature Red Jungle Fowl hen lays 10 to 12 eggs during the breeding season, hens from chicken breeds developed specifically for egg production lay year round and can produce more than 300 eggs in a year.
