the $ 100 - million deal , part of a recovery plan , includes medical centers in monterey park , whittier and el monte .
tenet healthcare corp . announced monday that it had reached an agreement to sell four los angeles - area hospitals for $ 100 million to the owner of alhambra hospital medical center .
two hospitals - - garfield medical center with 210 beds , and monterey park hospital with 101 - - are located in monterey park . the sale also includes whittier hospital medical center , with 181 beds , and greater el monte community hospital , with 117 beds .
the four hospitals being sold are among 27 that santa barbara - based tenet announced it would sell to help restore the company to profitability .
tenet has been mired in financial and legal troubles since the fall of 2002 , when it came to light that the nation ' s second - largest hospital chain had engaged in a questionable method of billing medicare for its sickest patients .
during this period it was disclosed that tenet ' s redding medical center , and two surgeons there , were under investigation for performing allegedly unnecessary heart operations . tenet sold the redding hospital last week for about $ 57 million to an affiliate of hospital partners of america inc . , a privately held north carolina firm .
last year , tenet paid $ 54 million to resolve a u . s . probe into the redding heart surgeries , but admitted no wrongdoing . tenet also is attempting to reach a settlement with hundreds of heart patients and family members who have filed claims against the company .
in addition , tenet is negotiating with the federal government to end several investigations into its medicare billing , physician recruitment and other business practices .
also hanging over tenet is a probe by the u . s . attorney ' s office in los angeles into the efficacy of certain heart procedures performed by doctors at three of its hospitals , including centinela , on the westside .
tenet ' s shares fell 11 cents to $ 12 . 57 on the new york stock exchange .

danish bacon was a brand under which danish bacon was sold in the united kingdom .

the product had " danish " stamped on the rind between wavy lines .

the danish farmers producing danish bacon and their co-operatives were represented by danske slagterier , whose uk subsidiary was the danish bacon and meat council .

danske slagterier was absorbed into the danish ministry of agriculture and food in 2009 .

the majority of danish bacon is produced through the farmer-owned co-operative danish crown .

the co-operative system has low costs because of the scale ( 25 million pigs per year ) and the elimination of the need for markets .

most of the production is for export .

danish pig exports started to the uk in the mid-19th century when exporting to germany became difficult and have grown ever since despite attempts by uk domestic producers and other importers to compete .

they have not been able to keep pace with danish modernisation of the curing process and increasing centralisation .

denmark now concentrates on pig production and has moved bacon curing and packing to other countries .

such bacon is sold as danish , somewhat controversially , even within denmark itself .

pigs for the uk market are reared separately to a uk specification , mostly because of uk concerns over pig welfare in denmark .

bacon is a cured meat which has been prepared in many areas of the world for thousands of years . some geographical regions have developed their own unique preparation processes . the spices incorporated into the curing process can also vary greatly by region and are likely to include spices native to the area . like canadian bacon , irish bacon , english bacon , and american bacon , danish bacon has a unique taste and texture .
some people will reach that conclusion because a lot of people automatically associate danish with pork and bacon .
the co - op has urged other retailers to follow suit after ditching danish bacon and new zealand lamb to provide only 100 % fresh british bacon and lamb in its stores .
so what are we talking about ? a trade initiative designed to get more people eating delicious danish bacon ? no .
because danish bacon is cut from the loin of the pig rather than the belly , it tends to be a bit meatier than american bacon . this meatier flavor combines with the smoky , salty flavor imbued by the curing process to give what some call the best bacon taste available . in the united kingdom , the meat is sold under the brand name danish bacon™ .
danish bacon ' s 2007 advertising and promotional campaign is set to get mouths watering by capitalising on the popularity of one of the nation ' s favourite snacks - the classic bacon sandwich .

the research was sponsored by danish bacon , which has also published a survey claiming that 67 bacon butties are eaten by the average yorkshire household every year compared with the national average of 50 .

everybody has their own ideas about the perfect bacon sandwich ,
says brian mccarthy , advertising and promotions manager for the danish bacon and meat council .
with our inspiring new integrated campaign , 2007 will become the year of the bacon buttie , with a range of new radio ads along with press and posters . we ' ll even be encouraging consumers to create their own perfect bacon buttie moment through advertorials linking to a micro site , and with a little help from danish bacon !
the print ad titled magic tree was done by wcrs advertising agency for danish bacon in united kingdom . it was released in mar 2002 .
i love eating danish bacon with a sweet pastry . the bacon has so much flavor and saltiness that it provides a perfect contrast to the super sweet , gooey goodness of a sweet roll , doughnut , or cruller .
brian mccarthy concludes :
we know people are passionate about their bacon sandwich – we want them to think danish bacon every time they are in the supermarket preparing for that bacon sandwich ' moment ' . with this integrated campaign we are confident we will continue to encourage consumers for look for the danish ' sizzle ' – being sure of a satisfying result .
kicking off in april , the integrated print , broadcast and internet consumer campaign focuses on the perfect bacon sandwich , encouraging consumers to look for the danish ' sizzle ' when selecting the bacon , and then savouring the moment .
danish bacon is launching a £1 . 2m advertising and promotion campaign starting next month , on the back of its
sizzling
push last year .
last year ' s campaign across tv , press and the internet ensured a high recognition rate for the danish
sizzle
, according to brian mccarthy , advertising and promotions manager of the danish bacon and meat council .
for clayton , the research has applications beyond the immediate bacon buttie . for instance , he points out that danish bacon has significantly reduced the sodium content of its bacon in the last 10 years . should it continue to make changes to its product , it would be crucial to have established a baseline standard , clayton said .
but the danish bacon and meat council has criticised the advert saying it is
deeply misconceived
and served only to
confuse and worry
consumers .
british households spend £1 billion - a - year on bacon with each household tucking into an average of 50 bacon butties a year . in yorkshire , the average is 67 .
all activity directs the audience to a central micro site to share their ' perfect sandwich moment ' , to interact with the danish bacon brand and win prizes .

the move has been welcomed by the anti - immigration danish people’s party ( dpp ) , which said it was “unacceptable to ban danish food culture . ”
danish bacon is a cured meat made from pigs raised in denmark . it is cut from the loin of the pig , differentiating it from american bacon , which is cut from the pig ' s belly . this meat product has the familiar meat and fat striation of most bacon , but it tends to be meatier than american bacon . the cured meat is particularly popular in the united kingdom , where it has been imported from denmark since the mid - 1800s .
party spokesman , martin henriksen , wrote on facebook : “the dpp is working nationally and locally for danish culture , including danish food culture , and consequently we also fight against islamic rules and misguided considerations dictating what danish children eat . ”
in 2002 danish crown and steff - houlberg merged , and a large proportion of the original co - operative pig slaughterhouses are included in the new danish crown .
it seems that not even the threat of cancer can come between a brit and a bacon butty .
but graham clayton , who led the research , said the endeavor had been an earnest attempt , commissioned by the danish bacon and food council , the british subsidiary of a danish pig producers’ organization , to determine what degree of crispiness and crunchiness made the perfect sandwich .
today danish crown is a limited company but is owned by the cooperative society ‘leverandørselskabet danish crown amba’ which has an elected management consisting of cooperative members and employee representatives .

the danish crown group is a global meat processing company and among the largest in its field in 1887 the first co - operative meat company , which would be the foundation for danish crown , opened . since then danish crown has expanded and experienced international growth .
the project measured everything from the crunchiness of bacon in decibels to the force required to chew through a sandwich .
panels on the smoked or unsmoked decision , everyone agreed that tough or chewy bacon is a turn - off .
lancashire finished second with 57 per year followed by the midlands , where 56 bacon butties are eaten a year .
most bacon - more than 60 per cent - is eaten at the weekend , according to research by producers .
the danish mentality is famous the world over . success is frowned upon ; as is being different or just standing out from the herd , but they excel at racism , drinking , and producing bacon .
so , if you want to cook the perfect bacon buttie at home , our recommendation is to choose thinly sliced bacon with just enough fat , grilled in a hot oven and served with dollops of your favourite sauce .
now , pig farmers have started an innovative trial with the mod to ensure that solely british bacon is supplied to troops , even though this country consumes so much bacon it is forced to import more than half of what it eats .

in 2005 danish crown acquires 50 % of sokolow which is the strongest meat brand company in poland and the second largest meat company in the country . in 2014 danish crown acquires the reminder of the shares in sokolow which is now a completely owned subsidiary in the danish crown group .
people are very passionate about their bacon and particularly about their bacon sandwiches ,
howard said .
we are committed to our consumers and wanted to know what technical advice can we give them to help them enjoy our product ?
and i see no reason why in a few years ' time supermarkets can ' t stock sow bacon as their basic , value range of bacon . they might have to call it something other than sow bacon ; it ' s not exactly consumer friendly . but it would enormously help british pig farmers if they had a market for their sow meat .
there are currently around 3 , 500 farms keeping pigs in denmark . the number of farms has declined significantly over the years , but total pig production has risen as the size of individual pig farming enterprises continues to increase . danish pig farmers are among the most efficient in the world , producing on average around 30 piglets per sow per annum . co - operative farming has a long history in denmark . the first danish pig farmers’ co - operative , where the farmers owned the abattoir receiving their pigs , was established in horsens in jutland in 1887 and remains the model for the danish pig industry today . just two pig farming co - operatives remain , danish crown and tican , receiving around 16 million pigs from their farmer members . the danish pig industry has a longstanding trading relationship with britain and the first recorded shipment of danish bacon took place in 1847 . danish bacon was one of the first food products to be advertised on commercial television , which was launched in the 1950s , and subsequently became one of britain’s iconic food brands . a brief history of the danish bacon trade with the british market can be found at this link .
for those of you who live where you can ' t find this fresh in stores , you can order danish canned bacon online . i discovered this in a desperate search to see how i could get the stuff .
denmark ' s bacon and meat council has predicted that danish pork prices are set to rise . the organisation points to declining meat production in the united states and flat output in the european union as the chief causes .
yet quality by itself is not enough . british bacon manufacturers face more hurdles in shouldering their rashers on to the supermarket shelves . they do not spend nearly as much on advertising as the danish or dutch newcomers do .
the truth is that we vote with our feet . while i’m a passionate campaigner for british food and farming , as long as they know what they’re putting in their baskets , shoppers are free to buy bacon from denmark , or anywhere else . after all , danish bacon remains popular , it’s inexpensive , tasty and has a long heritage .
mccarthy added :
our main objective is to get the danish bacon audience involved , engage with the brand and to remind them of their passion about their bacon sandwich . we are using new ways to bring this to life , including another viral campaign as a follow on to last year ' s very successful ' breakfast transformer ' !

@ oekc05 – i know how addictive it can be . while i was growing up , my family moved around a lot , and i had the opportunity to eat danish bacon . we lived in an area where that was the only type of bacon that people ate , and now that i live back in the united states , i miss it very much .
today the danes are the world’s leading pork butchers , slaughtering over 28 million pigs a year . the danish pork industry accounts for a fifth of all the world’s pork exports , half of domestic agriculture exports and over five per cent of the country’s total exports . yet the weird thing is , you can travel the length and breadth of the country and never see a single sow .

'
the results of the research , published on the danish bacon ' s web site , came down to this equation : n = c + { fb ( cm ) . fb ( tc ) } + fb ( ts ) + fc . ta , in which n is the force in newtons required to break the cooked bacon , fb is the function of the bacon type , fc is the function of the condiment / filling type , ts is the serving temperature , tc is the cooking time , ta is the time or duration of application of condiment / filling , cm is the cooking method , and c is the newtons required to break uncooked bacon .

academics at a yorkshire university have spent 1 , 000 hours working their way through 700 sandwiches to develop a formula for the perfect bacon buttie .
the history of danish bacon goes as far back as the 1800s . germany had traditionally been a large consumer of danish pig products , but opted to ban the import of danish pigs around the middle of the century . denmark then began importing to the united kingdom , where the effects of the industrial revolution left the country ripe for food import . british workers simply needed more food than could be produced by the united kingdom itself . the dutch people ' s strategic economic decision to begin exporting pork to the united kingdom lead to a huge pork industry that continues to be a large contributor to the danish economy .
ideally , danish bacon said , 0 . 4 newtons should be applied to crunch the sandwich , creating 0 . 5 decibels of noise . the formula uses these values : n = force in newtons ; f b is the function of the bacon type ; f c is the function of the condiment or filling effect ; t s is the serving temperature ; t c is cooking time ; t a is the time taken to insert the condiment or filling ; c m is the cooking method and c represents the breaking strain in newtons of uncooked bacon .
however , tougher competition in the global marketplace may yet cause the value of danish pork exports to fall this year .
the board of representatives in danish crown solidly voted yes to the formation of a limited company on 13 october 2010 .
nearly three - quarters of the bacon sold in australia now comes from denmark , and local farmers say it ' s eating away at their profits .
bacon comes from the back , belly or sides of the pig and is cured using salt , either in brine or as a dry mixture spread across the surface . then it’s often smoked to enhance the flavour , although it’s not to everyone’s taste , so butchers , meat counters and manufacturers make a point of distinguishing smoked from unsmoked products . meat from the back of the pig is , unsurprisingly , called back bacon while the streaky variety comes from the belly or side . gammon ( sometimes called gammon bacon ) is the meat from the hind legs of the pig removed from a whole side of bacon and cured in the same way , then sold uncooked . lardons are small chunks of diced bacon used in dishes such as coq au vin .

according to danish figures , pork exports to the uk were subject to stepped increases over the first nine months of the year , with a peak of around 9 , 800 tonnes in july ; they reached just over 81 , 000 tonnes for the period as a whole , 13 % more than a year earlier . however , this conflicts with uk import data which show a fall in shipments during the same period . demark shipped 6 % less bacon to the uk , contributing to a 5 % decrease in danish bacon exports overall . processed pig meat exports to the uk were also lower .
they also tried out a variety of different types of bacon such as unsmoked streaky and thick cut to develop the formula n = c + ( fb ( cm ) . fb ( tc ) ) + fb ( ts ) + fc . ta – which they say details the exact conditions needed to create the ideal bacon buttie .

denmark is trying to carve out almost exclusive relations with beijing but it ' s greenland’s natural resources that china’s is really interested in and less so danish bacon . maybe this explains why denmark and the eu is so keen to bend over backwards to support greenland ' s ever incraesing demands over its whaling .
farmers and butchers have long complained that it was an insult to the men and women fighting that they have been fed danish and dutch bacon , it being poorer quality and derived from pigs reared to a lower welfare standard , but mr goodger , is confident that by next year british sows will take over .

the fsa ' s official advice on breakfast , published on their website , says : “try to go for the leanest option whenever you can . as a general rule , the more white you can see on meat , the more fat it contains . so , for example , back bacon has less than half the fat of streaky bacon .
mccarthy continues :
research supporting this campaign shows that 42 per cent of all bacon is eaten as a sandwich , and 60 per cent of the bacon sandwiches eaten at breakfast are eaten on weekends . with this in mind , we have designed our programme to tantalize the taste buds at key times , such as through weekend breakfast radio shows .
the results of the study are particularly newsworthy in britain , where the sandwich , known here as the
bacon buttie ,
is an integral part of the national cuisine .
john howard , a spokesman for the company , said the research commission was inspired by the fact that 40 percent of bacon consumed in britain is now consumed in sandwich form .

i think the reality is that a lot of people will make the assumption that what the meat and livestock commission is getting at is danish products .
danske slagterier ( ds ) is a subsidiary of the general danish agricultural organisation landbrug & fødevarer . danske slagterier , danish bacon & meat council , is the umbrella organisation for the two co - operative slaughterhouses , danish crown and tican , and the pig farmers who own them . a number of companies related to the industry are also members of ds . the primary aim of the organisation is to safeguard and promote the interests of pig producers and the pork and bacon industry . danske slagterier ' s representative office in brussels is involved in activities related to the objectives of the organization : - looking after the interests of its members , e . g . in relation to the european commission , the european council and the european parliament . - handling external relations , especially in relation to the japanese , american , russian , korean , indian and the philippian market

it should be noted the swedish theory on danish language , that is sounds like throwing up , is not even admitted by the danes . the swedes think this is an obvious case of alcoholics denial of truth . though the danes believe the swedes are just not drunk enough to see the epicness of the danish language .

but both asda and morrisons also reported that sales of bacon and ham and other processed meats , which hit an all - time high earlier this month , had not been at all affected by the report .
denmark’s geographical location in close proximity of the most dynamic nations of sixteenth - century europe , the netherlands and the united kingdom , no doubt exerted a positive influence on the danish economy and danish institutions . the north german area influenced denmark both through long - term economic links and through the lutheran protestant reformation which the danes embraced in 1536 .
but this is less than half the story . according to john malcolm , chief economist of the national farmers union , three - quarters of imported food consists of foodstuffs that could in principle be grown at home . there is no innate reason why we should raise pigs yet import pounds 500m - worth of danish bacon a year , except that we have done so for a century .
that said , on the whole , british bacon will have travelled far fewer miles to reach the shop so has a lower carbon footprint than its foreign equivalents . and campaigners and high - profile pig farmers , such as tv presenter jimmy doherty , will tell you that choosing british rashers means employment for the people whose work helps keep the countryside the way it is . that’s bringing home the bacon in more ways than one .
just weeks after experts warned how eating processed meat increases the risks of the deadly disease , urltoken has discovered that bacon and ham is selling quicker than ever - proving the great british sarnie is here to stay .
one of the most direct ways for farmers and producers to get a fair deal is to set up a brand that will market your products . danish dairy farmers did this in 1901 when they created lurpak . the brand set a quality standard for danish butter , and the company now sells products in 80 countries . it is owned by 8 , 000 dairy farmers in denmark , sweden and germany . danish bacon is a similar cooperative . ocean spray is a brand specialising in cranberry products , and is owned by 600 cranberry growers across the us and canada . in 2004 they voted down a take - over bid from pepsico . there’s also a cooperative brand for grape products , welch’s , owned by the national grape cooperative association .
ancient danish culture centers around the great kronborg castle in elsinore . the castle was original build by og the magnificient in 1214 over the objections of queen oggette . construction was finished in record time and the queen was eventually drowned in the moat since , as one danish ka - niggit put it ,

the advertising will follow two themes . firstly , the things people will do to make sure their perfect bacon buttie moment isn ' t interrupted – illustrated by a series of eye - catching , humorous advertisements in top women ' s weeklies , men ' s monthlies and food titles , as well as on posters on the london underground . the secondary angle is celebrity gossip : enhancing the idea of the bacon sandwich as something to be enjoyed while catching up on the latest ' sizzling stories ' from the celebrity world . key to this aspect of the campaign is sponsorship of the capital radio saturday morning show hosted by craig doyle featuring the ' saturday morning sizzler ' . craig ' s weekly guest is now magazine ' s celebrity gossip columnist and friend of the stars sam mann , who will discuss the latest ' sizzling ' gossip with craig each week in a slot sponsored by danish bacon .
the danish vote showed that there is popular support – in denmark at least – for this type of parallel negotiation between the eu and individual countries , which is encouraging for anti - eu campaigners in the uk . should brexit have the expected consequence of an economically and diplomatically weaker eu , the danish referendum outcome may be seen in hindsight as a turning point for eu solidarity .

how did denmark manage to have such a huge proportion of its energy consumption locked in the english trade ? the above analysis ignores one important aspect of danish transformation to an export - orientated and animal - based agriculture . a significant part of the energy embodied in danish exports to the uk came from elsewhere , showing a globalization of the intermediate inputs necessary to its food exports .
