An Organic Here is a story from the web about a Cash Cow
By KIM SEVERSON Alexis Gersten, a Long Island dentist, never thought about what she poured over her cereal until her son turned 1. “Having a new milk drinker, I sort of wanted to start him off on the right foot,” she said. Ms. Gersten worried about what synthetic growth hormones, pesticides and antibiotics might do to her child and to the environment. She was concerned about the health of the cows and the survival of local farmers. So she became one of the new mothers who are making milk the fastest growing slice of the organic market. “Some of my friends who don’t really think about feeding their children organic food will feed them organic milk,” she said. Milk represents all that is wholesome. Add the word organic, and the purity of milk’s image only increases. But a carton of organic milk does not come without complications. It is expensive. Some brands are processed so that an unopened carton can last for months. And an organic seal does not necessarily mean the cows are grazing on pasture or that the milk is local. Organic milk accounts for more than 3 percent of all milk sold in the United States. But with an annual growth rate of 23 percent in an era when overall milk consumption is dropping by 8 percent a year, organic milk has made the nation’s $10.2 billion-a-year dairy industry take notice. Horizon Organic, which controls 55 percent of the market, is selling $16 million worth of organic milk a month. It is owned by Dean Foods, the nation’s largest dairy producer. Groupe Danone, the French dairy giant, owns Stonyfield Farm. Large grocers, including Whole Foods Market and Safeway, have organic house brands. Wal-Mart even sells it. “It’s being held back only by supply now,” said George Siemon, chief executive of Organic Valley. A Wisconsin dairy cooperative that Mr. Siemon began in 1988, it is the second-largest seller of organic milk in the country.
Milk is considered a gateway to organic food. Along with produce it is one of the first organic products a consumer will buy, according to the Hartman Group, a research firm in Bellevue, Wash. The ethos of organic milk – one that its cartons reinforce – conjures lush pastures dotted with grazing animals, their milk production driven by nothing more than nature’s hand and a helpful family farmer.
But that store is a long drive from his house in Pasadena. “We just shop at your regular supermarket down the street and it’s not there,” he said. Other milk shoppers care only about price. At Pathmark, a half-gallon of regular milk was $1.70. The same size of Horizon Organic milk was $4.29. Organic milk is so expensive that most state governments consider it a luxury item and will not pay for it under low-income food programs like the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children. Ann Lickteig, a mother of four in Burlington, Vt., stopped buying organic milk when it reached nearly $5 a gallon. Now she goes to a local store on Mondays, when milk from a local dairy is on sale for $2.99 a gallon. “I buy the milk that says no growth hormones, but I don’t know that that’s the only thing to worry about,” she said. “I don’t want my kids exposed to potentially harmful chemicals, but I haven’t done the research myself.” For some parents, cost does not matter.
Nor do the intricacies of the organic pasture rules. They search for the organic label and buy it, no matter what. “I look at what I pay for everything else, but I don’t for the milk,” said Ms. Gersten, the Long Island dentist. “Buying any other milk for him is just not an option.” I 2005 IF YOU HAVE ANY INFOROMATION ABOUT RAW MILK THAT MIGHT HELP OTHERS MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD AND SEND IT TO ME.

Which resort or hotel is the finest to stay at in Tuscon,Arizona?

March 212010


Lowes Ventana Canyon Resort would be my first choice, having stayed there a couple of years ago. It offers great service and a special ambiance.

It is in a desert setting and offers stunning views. You can play golf and tennis, hike, you’ll also find horseback riding or you can just relax by the pool. You’ll have to try the fitness center after indulging in the wonderful meals.

how to phone tuscon arizona from Britain…..HELP!!?

March 172010

i have to phone a person in Tuscon, Arizona

i have the number, but im not sure about the dialling code.

any help is appreciated.
(520)884-0987 X 110

is the phone number, it makes no sense to me whatsoever

You dial 001-520-884-0987. The 00 tells the phone system you want to make an international call and the 1 tells it you want the USA or Canada. The country code for America and Canada is 1 (the country code for the UK is 44).

The phone will be answered either by a human or an automated system.

If by a human, tell them you want extension 110.

If by an automated system, listen to the recording and enter 110 at the appropriate time. Most systems let you enter the extension number without waiting for the whole recording to play.

Good luck!

Does anyone know anything about Tuscon, Arizona?

March 152010

Are they nice people? Will they kill me for not being from there? Is it hard to find jobs or places to live?
sorry I mispelled the name, my appoligies.

It’s a fairly friendly city. It’s not hard to find a job there, but it’s hard to find a good paying job. The cost of living is reasonable, the climate is terrific. great mountains surround Tucson making for tremendous views and killer sunsets. Unlike Los Angeles- the air is clean and we have seismic stabililty.

On the downside- no beach.

With now over a million people in the metro area- it’s long lost it’s cowboy image, but there is still a flair for the southwest, native american and mexican culture. It’s not very metropolitan for a city with this many people.
