If we pursue organic farming as our healthy food style, we can bring down cost of treatment to a great extent.

Moreover, all our knowledge of organic remains teaches us, that species have a definite existence, and a centralization in geological time as well as in geographical space, and that no species is repeated in time.

Chemical compounds of carbon can exist in an infinite variety of compositions, forms and sizes. The naturally occurring organic substances are the basis of all life on Earth, and their science at the molecular level defines a fundamental language of that life.

This implies that the laws governing organic cohesion, the organization leading from the part to the whole, represent a biological uncertainty, indeed an uncertainty of the first order.

Carbon-carbon bond formation reactions employing organoboron compounds and organic electrophiles have recently been recognized as powerful tools for the construction of new organic compounds.

We eat all organic at home, so if we're running around and the kids want a hot dog or pretzel, I'll get it for them.

Now you can get artisanal everything - pickles, coffees, house-cured meats, mustard.

To go back to architecture, what's organic about architecture as a field, unlike product design, is this whole issue of holism and of monumentality is really our realm.

In philosophy, they talk a lot about humans being actual organic machines, and the idea of free will is something that we've made up. We actually don't have free will. We're acting according to our programming as organic mechanisms.

Polymeric materials in the form of wood, bone, skin and fibers have been used by man since prehistoric time. Although organic chemistry as a science dates back to the eighteenth century, polymer science on a molecular basis is a development of the twentieth century.

Putting even one thing in your shopping basket that's locally produced or organic makes all the difference. It's a vote for the future, for animal welfare, for the environment, for your children's children.

The perception is if two products are side by side, with one labeled as chemical-free and one not, the chemical-free product will go for a higher price.

We're in a slower-growth environment and as Larry said, if you can get 10 percent growth from organic growth and 10 percent from acquisition, it adds cash and adds earnings. That's as long as they can make the integration work.

With this additional funding in place, we hope to conclude some of the acquisitions that are currently under discussion.

We want to remove organic material from the municipal solid waste stream and divert it to a higher and better use.

When Wal-Mart and McDonald's start selling organic food, it will drive down the price to farmers and risk growing a new monoculture.

My understanding of Nokia's management makes it unlikely that they would want to do this. Nokia has been doing well with organic growth and not doing large acquisitions. On the other hand, Lucent has a lot of assets that might be valuable, and some of those assets might match up well with Nokia. Lucent needs strong management, and Nokia definitely has that.

I'd call it an organic hip-hop style, musically. Back in the late '80s and early '90s, people sampled a lot, and because of that these records had a feel. They weren't recorded in a computer with a click track. . . . When I was approaching this record, what I wanted to do was try and get back to that, but I write music, I play music, so I wanted to write every note, record every note and play every note, and get that kind of hand-played feel.

BB&T over the years largely has grown through the merger-and- acquisition process, acquiring community banks and thrifts, and that's been successful on our part. Over the last year we've had a little of this indigestion from a lot of mergers over a short period.

I can't do as much as I used to, but I can still grow a little corn, tomatoes and some cucumbers in my organic garden out back.

Give him time to grow into it. Maybe make a lower profile, lower key, more organic record.

From a budget standpoint, we had allocated more this year into nontraditional advertising streams, organic searches. We are really putting time online in pulling up Capitals searches and targeting those people. If somebody is doing a search in Washington, D.C., and they type in 'Chinatown,' 'MCI Center,' 'things to do in Washington,' they are going to get Caps advertisements.
