SOUTH POINT — A company that manufactures aluminum chlorhydrate is considering The Point industrial park as the site for its next chemical plant.

 

Chemical engineer Hasmut Patel told the Lawrence County Commission Thursday the plant would create 20 to 25 jobs and produce 45,000 pounds of product daily. They are considering naming the plant Aluflock. Patel said he has similar operations in Arizona, New Jersey and in Cincinnati.

Got (Good) Milk? Ask The Dairy Evangelist

 

December 10, 2009

by John Burnett/NPR

 

An Ohio dairyman is on a crusade to put cows back on pastures and bring the flavor back to milk.

 

Warren Taylor owns and runs Snowville Creamery, and he's trying to make milk the way it was made 40 years ago, when, he insists, it tasted better.

 

A lean, hyperactive 58-year-old dairy engineer, Taylor aspires to be "the Che Guevara of the American dairy industry." He bounds from place to place, pouring forth his philosophy of how he plans to transform the industry, starting here at his milk plant in Pomeroy, Ohio.

I heard that on NPR this morning.  I now want to try some of their milk. 

It is VERY good. Don't forget to shake it up first.

 

I remember having their milk in glass bottles in Lexington (Ky.) a few years ago. I was hooked.

Giant Eagle and Kroger carry their milk.  Even their Fat-Free milk tastes rich.

"We all know the placebo effect is quite powerful. If you're paying $6, $7 or $8 a gallon for milk versus $3, you might think it tastes better simply because it costs more," Galen says."

 

Oh you disgusting piece of shit. Of course your factory milk tastes worse than organic, you milk your cows until they literally discharge pus into the pump stream, then boil it off.

The milk is good.  Madison's in Findlay Market sells it.

^Good to know, I want to go down there this weekend.

Also, if you want to get raw milk, there is an Amish farmer, Adam who sets up in the farmer's shed at Findlay Mkt on Saturdays, who runs a herdshare.  This Saturday will be his last day at the Market until March.  He usually sets up as the first farmer on the left when walking north from the Market house. or you can PM me if you want to join.

 

Oh you disgusting piece of sh!t. Of course your factory milk tastes worse than organic, you milk your cows until they literally discharge pus into the pump stream, then boil it off.

 

Come on, you are supposed to be a moderator.  No reason to call anyone names.  Not sure where you get your facts, but milk is not boiled in the pasteurization process.  Pus is the buildup of white blood cells necessary to fight off an infection.  Therefore, unless there is a previous infection, no cow could be milked enough to literally discharge pus into the milk stream.  Since white blood cells are solid, they could not be "boiled off" even if the boiling temperature of milk was reached.

 

^I'm glad you said something about that.  Seemed inappropriate to me as well.

"Loved ones aren't the only thing buried in the 122-year-old Lowellville Cemetery in eastern Ohio. Deep underground, locked in ancient shale formations, are lucrative quantities of natural gas.

Whether to drill for that gas is causing soul-searching as cemeteries — including veterans' final resting places in Colorado and Mississippi — join parks, playgrounds, churches and residential backyards among the ranks of places targeted in the nation's shale drilling boom.

Opponents say cemeteries are hallowed ground that shouldn't be sullied by drilling activity they worry will be noisy, smelly and unsightly. Defenders say the drilling is so deep that it doesn't disturb the cemetery and can generate revenue to enhance the roads and grounds."
