The American local food movement has been all about buying seasonal food from nearby farmers. Now, thanks to the Web, it is expanding to include far-away farmers too. A new start-up, Foodzie, is an online farmers market where small food producers and growers can sell their products.
Foodzie was started by Mr LaFave and two of his friends, who met during college at Virginia Tech, where they would pay frequent visits to farmers markets. Last year, while living in North Carolina, one of them, Emily Olson, now 24, came up with one idea. She was working as a brand manager for a gourmet grocery chain and realized that people who enjoyed fine food but didn’t work in the business had no way to discover handmade foods outside their local farmers markets. Small farmers had no way of finding or selling to faraway customers, either.
Mr LaFAve and the third co-founder, Nik Bauman, both 25, worked in corporate sales and software development. “With business, food and computer science backgrounds, we figured we had everything we needed.” Mr LaFAve said.
The three quit their jobs, and opened this site to the public in December and the site has had 43,000 visitors in the past month. So far, 29 sellers have opened shops and 41 are in the process of opening them. The founders recently hired a fourth employee to help Ms Olson recruit(吸收) new food producers at farmers markets and food shows. Mr LaFAve is convinced that the recession(经济衰退) will not reduce people’s interest in buying locally grown and handmade food. “There is misunderstanding that all these foods are more expensive than mass-produced alternatives,” he said. “People are pouring their heart and soul into these products, and they are of the highest quality. ”

It’s difficult for doctors to help a person with a hurt brain. 1enough blood, the brain can live only three to five minutes. Usually doctors can’t fix the hurt 2such a short time.
Dr Robert White thinks he knows a 3of help. He thinks doctors should make the hurt brain 4to live for 30 minutes without blood. This gives the doctor 5time to do something for the brain. Dr White experimented his 6on fifteen monkeys. 7he taught them to do different jobs. Then he operated on them. He made the monkeys’ blood go 8 a machine. When the brains’ 9was 10℃, he stopped the blood to the brain. After 30 minutes, he turned the blood back on. He 10the blood again. After their operations, the monkeys were almost 11before. They were healthy and busy. Each one could still do the job the doctor 12them.
Dr White’s idea works well on monkeys. He thinks it will work on 13. He think it will help with heart problems. A person 14die when his heart stops; doctors can 15it again. The problem comes: when the brain is without blood for about 5 minutes, it 16. If doctors start the heart again after 5 minutes, the person has 17body but a dead brain. Maybe in the future, doctors will 18Dr White’s idea. When the person’s heart stops the doctor will 19cool the brain. They will have 30 minutes to start the heart again.

We come by business naturally in our family. Each of the seven children in our family worked in our father’s store.1we worked and watched, we learned that work was about more than 2and making a sale.
One lesson stands out in my3. It was shortly before Christmas. I was in eighth grade and was working evenings, straightening the toy section. A little boy, five or six years old, came in. He was 4a brown torn coat with dirty sleeves. His shoes were scuffed (磨破)and his one shoelace was torn. The little boy looked poor to me — too poor to5to buy anything. He looked6the toy section, picked up this item and 7, and carefully put them 8in their place.
Dad came down the stairs and walked over to the boy. His steel blue eyes9and the dimple(酒窝)in his cheek stood out as he asked the boy what he could do for him. The boy said he was looking for a Christmas 10 to buy his brother. I was impressed that Dad treated him with the same respect as any adult. Dad told him to take his11and look around. He did.
After about 20 minutes, the little boy carefully picked up a toy 12, walked up to my dad and said, “How much for this, Mister?”
“How much you got?” Dad asked.
The little boy held out his hand and13it. His hand was creased(起皱) with14lines of dirt from holding his15too tightly. In his hand16two dimes, a nickel and two pennies—27 cents. The price on the toy plane he’d picked out was $3.98.
“That’11 just17it,” Dad said as he18the sale. Dad’s reply still 19in my ears. When the little boy walked out of the store, I didn’t notice the dirty, worn coat or the single torn shoelace. What I saw was a happy child with a 20.
