InstaNatural's Lemon & Peppermint Essential Oils Review
Posted By Danette L on March 19, 2015
Looking for some great, quality essential oils? Enjoy the premium quality of InstaNatural's Essential Oils. I received the following oils in exchange for my honest review:
About Lemon Essential Oil:
Lemon Essential Oil is extracted from the rinds of lemon, which lends its fresh citrus fragrance. This cold-pressed oil has a strong bright scent that is both refreshing and uplifting. Its astringent and purifying properties also make it a great aid to help cleanse and tone the skin, while delivering a boost of Vitamin C antioxidant benefits.
*Great as a cleaner – use to remove gum, oil, grease spots and crayons on most surfaces
*Can be used to remove that dusty smell from vacuum cleaners
*Dilute well before use – especially when applying onto skin
*Not recommended for internal use
Ingredient: 100% Pure Cold-Pressed Lemon Essential Oil (Citrus Limon)
About Peppermint Oil:
Peppermint Essential Oil is a multi-purpose oil that cools, energizes and refreshes the body and mind. This steam-distilled oil is extracted from dried or fresh leaves from the Mentha Piperita herb, giving it a sharp, menthol fragrance. Its pleasantly sweet and minty aroma makes it a premium choice for aromatherapy to improve the mind and lift the spirits.
*Diffuse oil to soothe nausea and motion sickness
*Place a couple drops onto your wrists to gently inhale and help *clear nasal congestion
*Dilute well before use – especially if applying oil to the skin
*Not recommended for internal use
Ingredient: 100% Pure Steam-Distilled Peppermint Essential Oil (Mentha Piperita)

Brandon seems to do better when the conditions are bad. Since the temps are not going to warm up there will be snow on the ground which will potentially make the conditions difficult.
My money is on Brandon.

This is a lot of things. This is a game-changing, multibillion dollar redevelopment of a city's urban center. This is an influx of young, outdoor-loving transplants, emboldening homegrown, urban-centric locals and infusing younger, forward-thinking members of a famously conservative religion with a sense of modernity and play. This is about taste and style and optimism. This is bike warriors versus Suburbans and minivans. This is a clash of culture as a revamped, global-minded LDS church remakes the gates of its headquarters, while wordly and urban citizens clamor for space. This is transformation in real time. This is the New Salt Lake.

With National Donut Day on the horizon, Entenmann's introduces a new flavor to its donut family, Red Velvet. Entenmann's has many best selling donuts, like Rich Frosted and Crumb-topped, but the seasonal flavors have been popular additions to the classic favorites. Some seasonal favorites have included Cider, Harvest Pumpkin and Frosted Raspberry.
The new flavor, Red Velvet, is available on May 15. Entenmann's Master Baker Kathleen Robbins and her Research and Development team have created their first-ever Red Velvet donut recipe made to perfection, as Kathleen noted. "Our new donut combines the familiar taste of the fan favorite Red Velvet with the flavor of cream cheese in the glaze that we know will certainly delight our consumers."
Again this year, Entenmann's has teamed with Salvation Army to raise funds leading up the the National Donut Day celebration on June 6, 2014. "We're very excited to partner with The Salvation Army for the fourth year in a row and hit the $100K charitable donation mark with the debut of our newest flavored Red Velvet donut," said Maureen Sticco, Director of Entenmann's Marketing Services.
"Entenmann's has been a terrific partner and supporter of our mission of goodwill and we look forward to making the 2014 National Donut Day the best one yet," said Major Ron Busroe, National Community Relations and Development Secretary for The Salvation Army.
Now through June 30 Entenmann's Bakery will donate to the organization $1 for every person who "likes" the Entenmann's Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/entenmanns), up to $30,000. Entenmann's Bakery has donated a total of $70,000 to The Salvation Army through the first three years of the partnership and plans to hit the $100,000 mark through this year's donation campaign.
To add to the celebratory fun, each box of the new Red Velvet donuts, as well as Rich Frosted donuts and, Powdered Bag Donuts, will feature the National Donut Day Sweepstakes. Entenmann's will be rewarding lucky "fans" with 'Free Donuts for a Year' and additional prizes through the sweepstakes link on the Entenmann's Facebook page starting on April 21st. All entries must be received by 11:59: p.m. ET on June 30, 2014. Winners will be randomly selected from all submissions. Official Rules can be found at www.entenmanns.com.
Take a break this weekend and indulge in Entenmann's newest donut flavor, Red Velvet. The National Donut Day celebration might start a little early this year.

SarVecchioSartori SarVecchio wraps a feel good story about the American Worker in its nutty, caramelly parmesan-esque flavor- a combination that keeps us coming back for more. After a notable cheese giant decided to close the Antigo, Wisconsin plant that produced its most flavorful (perhaps ONLY flavorful) cheese, workers pooled their resources, bought the plant, and showed the big guy that Americans could handle cheese with incredible flavor that didn't come in a can.

If you enjoy palm trees, Thousand Palms Oasis/Coachella Valley Preserve features trails to six different oasis. While Willis Palms Oasis doesn't see many visitors, the loop is a nice four-mile walk with an oasis and views. However, you'll need to bring your sense of adventure and be good at watching for signs if you want to hike this trail.
The hike starts at a small trailhead on Thousand Palms Road (directions below). Walk around the fence and start the hike on the wide, dirt road. Just a few steps away from the parking lot, hikers get their first glimpse of the Willis Palms Oasis in the distance.
The trail crosses a couple washes as it heads toward the oasis. At the start of the trees is one of the first brown trail markers. While it points equestrians one way and hikers two other ways, the hiker trail doesn't really go anywhere. Stay on the main trail along the south side of the oasis, until you see the trail signs that say "Willis Oasis" and "Willis Palms Oasis."
At this spot, visitors for the oasis go into the palms, but those of us hiking the loop stay on the same, dirt trail along the front side of the oasis.
Continue past the trees, until you see a yellow sand dome about 0.8 miles from the trailhead. Continue on the main trail, around the yellow dome, past a couple more yellow sandy areas, until you see a brown trail sign with an arrow directing you to veer right. Don't turn left here, there's some sort of ranch that way.
As you hike up the valley, about a mile from the trailhead, the trail suddenly drops into a wash. Turn right here. How do you know to turn right? 1. You'll see the footprints. 2. Look upstream and you should spot another brown trail sign.
About 1.3 miles from the trailhead, there was a very obvious trail split. I had no idea which way to go, until I spotted yet another brown trail sign. This one had fallen into the shrubs, but it appeared to point right. (It did.)
The trail now goes up a canyon with mud walls. It gets narrower as it winds its way up the valley. Follow this for about another half mile to a place where the canyon gets wider and another trail split appears. Another brown sign appears to point hikers to the right.
As you hike this section, keep your eyes open. The trail goes up at some point. It's about 0.4 miles (about 2.2 miles from the trailhead) from the last split to the turnoff up the hill. Quite honestly, because there was no sign, no cairn and no marking in December 2013, I ended up going up the canyon. I knew I was in the wrong place when I stopped seeing brown trail signs and when I got to climbs no horse could make (this is a horse and hike trail). I backtracked and spotted the turnoff.
From here, the trail climbs about 100 feet of elevation in 0.2 miles to a marked trail split. Here you'll see a sign pointing the way to Moon Country, Herman's Hike, Willis Loop and Willis Palms Oasis. Turn right to continue the loop.
After enjoying the canyon, now you're above it. Enjoy the views of the canyons, the mountains in the distance and even the city.
As you walk this wide road, you'll pass two unmarked left turns that don't go anywhere. Stay on the main trail. It's about a mile from the major trail split to the next signed split for Willis Palms and the trailhead. Here you have two options -- go back to the oasis or take the cutoff back to the parking lot. Because I had walked by the oasis already, I decided to take the cutoff back to the trailhead. But if you want to explore the oasis more, take the trail to the oasis, down into the trees, then return on the same trail (the one in front of the oases) that you hiked in on.
Details: The hike around the loop is about 4.1 miles with about 375 feet of elevation gain.
Find more than 25+ great hikes in the Palm Springs area here.
Directions: From Interstate 10, exit Ramon Road and drive north about 4.5 miles to 1000 Palms Canyon Road. Turn left and drive 2 miles to the preserve's Visitor's Center on the left. The parking area for the Willis Palms trail is about 1.5 miles south of the Visitor's Center, or 0.5 miles from the intersection of Ramon Road and 1000 Palms Canyon Rd.
Fee: The suggested donation is $5 per person.
Website: http://coachellavalleypreserve.org/
Map: Before taking the trail, I highly recommend a stop at the Visitor's Center for a map and to check on trail conditions.

Dessert can be plain or fancy; sweet, tart or savory; hot, warm or cold. The 2010 New England Dessert Showcase gave us the opportunity to taste a wide spectrum of desserts from local chocolatiers, bakeries, restaurants and ice cream makers. On Saturday September 18, 2010 over two dozen dessert purveyors offered samples of their desserts at the Copley Westin Hotel, to dessert savvy Bostonians.
For those attendees planning a wedding the showcase proved to be a terrific place to learn about bakeries whose repertoire includes wedding cakes. There were over half a dozen bakeries represented at the show. Of those, three: Cakeology, Treat Cupcake Bar and Kickass Cupcakes specialize in – you guessed it -- cupcakes. Of the three, Kickass cupcakes is probably the best known, and Treat Cupcake Bar has the most unique concept offering ready-made cupcakes along with cupcakes made your way. The latter means you get to select a cupcake, frosting and toppings resulting in a custom cupcake created just for you. Are cupcakes hot? You bet, both Kickass Cupcakes and Treat were out of samples by the time I reached each of their tables.
You can make a cake completely out of cupcakes but if your taste runs to "real" cake be it traditional or funky, there were plenty of bakeries up for the job. Keyks not only creates traditional baked goods and cakes, they also create custom cakes and Filipino baked goods. O'Sugar Cakery creates custom cakes for the residents of Massachusetts, Maine and New Hampshire. They also make cake pops and specialty cupcakes which can be shipped anywhere in the US. I did see samples of the kind of fun cakes these bakeries can make but sadly there were no samples to be had by mid afternoon. I did get a sample from Cakes Milton which I enjoyed. Their table displayed treats for Halloween, including several Halloween themed cakes. If you're looking for an exceptionally elegant cake to celebrate a special occasion or wedding then Konditor Meister should be on your short list of bakeries to check out. In addition to their beautiful cakes they also make gourmet desserts including Apple Strudel and Linzer Tarte; five different kinds of cheesecake, a selection of petits French pastries, chocolate dipped strawberries, cookies, and a selection of pies. Another bakery at the Showcase was Harvard Sweet Boutique. Located in Harvard Massachusetts, the Harvard Sweet Boutique is an on-line baking company offering made-to-order gift boxes of cookies, toffee, brownies, bars and truffles. With Christmas just around the corner, this is a web site you'll want to bookmark. I sampled a chocolate mint bar on Saturday, and at another event had their cookies. Wanna send me a gift? I'll take these any day.
If you're looking for a bakery/cafe that offers something other than cupcakes then consider Japonaise a French Japanese fusion bakery. With four locations they serve Brookline, Cambridge, Boston and Somerville, offering a variety of breads, pastries and cakes. At the NE Dessert Showcase they were sampling their strawberry shortcake and azuki cream pastry. Finale a well known dessert spot in Boston was also well represented at the Showcase. Not only did they bake the official New England Showcase cake, but they were also offering samples of their delicious flourless chocolate cake.
When thinking of ice cream do cows come to mind? Apparently they did for the two ice cream companies at the New England Dessert Showcase: The Chilly Cow and The Brewer's Cow; but that's where the similarity ends. The Chilly Cow located in Arlington offers frozen custard in a variety of flavors along with frozen custard pies which can also be purchased in stores in northeastern Massachusetts and southern New Hampshire. I've tried several of their flavors in the past and they will make any ice cream lover happy. The Brewer's Cow on the other hand makes premium ice cream infused with beer. They currently offer seven varieties of beer ice cream using Stout, Double Boch and Scottish Ale. Their ice cream is available in restaurants and pubs, and The Brewer's Cow can bring their cart to your event. Don't assume that because you like beer you'll like beer ice cream. This is an acquired taste. Me - I'll take my beer in a frosty mug.
Should you want chocolate for dessert, breakfast, lunch, whenever, then Vianne Chocolatwill be happy to satisfy your craving. Vianne makes handmade artisanal chocolates infused with herbs, spices, liqueurs, fruits, and more. You can find their chocolates on-line, at Beacon Hill Wine & Gourmet, Melrose, MA, and at various events in the Boston area.
Although not strictly dessert, several exhibitors offered products that can be used to create desserts or can be eaten as snacks. Yvette Taylor of Queen of the Pantry provides personal chef services as well as spicy nut products that can be used in both savory and sweet dishes as a topping or as a coating in place of bread crumbs. For kids of all ages, the lollipops made by the Strawberry Hill Confectionary are sure to please. These lollipops are organic and come in a variety of shapes, colors and flavors. Last in this category is the Budi Bar a small chocolate nut bar that packs a punch not only in nutrition, but also in flavor. The Budi Bar aims to satisfy your appetite, relax you, and increase your focus and attention. The Budi Bar is formulated using green tea extract, chia seeds, hemp seeds, coconut, dark chocolate and macadamia nuts. Although you may be unfamiliar with the nutritional science behind the Budi Bar, or skeptical of the results, one thing is certain - they are yummy, and at 160 calories per bar easy to fit into your daily diet.
The last category of exhibitors at the New England Dessert Showcase were restaurants eager to show off the wares of their pastry chefs in the hope that you will not only have dessert with them, but dinner as well. Tommy Choi the pastry chef at Top of the Hub offered attendees samples of his chocolate ginger mousse with mango tapioca sauce - delish. The Melting Pot is a fondue restaurant with several locations in the Greater Boston Area. I enjoyed their sample plate of chocolate fondue. It included a strawberry, marshmallow and rice krispie cube dipped in yummy dark chocolate. I've linked to the Melting Pot in the Back Bay. To find others you'll have to use Open Table because the locator on the Melting Pot website doesn't seem to think there are any in Massachusetts. Also offering a decadent chocolate dessert was the Chart House. Theirs was a hot chocolate lava cake.
Other features of the Showcase were "cooking" demonstrations by several exhibitors, and the largest Boston Cream Pie baked by members of the culinary program at Southern New Hampshire University.
My favorite dessert is ice cream, what's your favorite dessert? Let me know by entering a comment below, and for pictures of the Showcase check out the accompanying slide show.

After more than five years of turmoil, the U.S. genuine mahogany market has finally stabilized, and the country's housing crisis can take credit for that. U.S. wholesalers have warehouses filled with mahogany, but there is one key ingredient missing — buyers.

There is no doubt teak has been the pre-eminent wood for high-end marine applications and outdoor furniture for decades. The wood is also prevalent in fine furniture, prized not only for its appearance, but also for its tight growth rings, density, durability and water resistance.
Hard maple keeps strong share of market
Wednesday, 06 May 2009 16:31
Only two years ago, cherry and hard maple were at the top of the domestic wood markets — both in popularity and price. As everyone is acutely aware, the national economy and the domestic wood markets have changed dramatically since then. But one thing that hasn't changed is the popularity of these two species. Retail and wholesale sales for hard maple and cherry are definitely down, but their percentage of domestic wood sales remains strong. Dealers contacted by Woodshop News report walnut is the only domestic specie that has grown in popularity during the two-year span.

LEE-ANN GARSKE, of Ironwood, cleans off her car on Aurora Street in downtown Ironwood during a blizzard Wednesday. Mother Nature decided to throw a late season storm across much of the Midwest.
Spring weather conditions are expected to return next week, but don't put that winter coat away just yet.
"You're still going to have some chances of snow in the western Upper Peninsula, even into late afternoon, before it's pretty much over in the evening," Jim Salzwedel, a hydromet technician at the National Weather Service in Marquette, said.
Wednesday, snow was falling at a rate of about two and a half inches in a five hour period, with a total amount expected to pile up around 13 inches, Salzwedel said.
"Everybody just wants (the winter) to diminish because it was so cold," he said. "We were below normal snowfall here, and now we're catching up to normal."
There was 1.5 inches of snowfall reported at 7 a.m. Wednesday, pushing this season's total to 179.9 inches. Last year's total reported snowfall at this time was 182.8 inches.
A record high temperature for today's date of 82 degrees was set in 2002, and a record low of -8 occurred in 1983.
Today's temperatures won't be as extreme, as area residents can expect a high of 36 degrees and a low of around 20.
Temperatures are expected to stay the same for Friday, but there will be a gradual clearing of cloud cover. Saturday will see slightly warmer temperatures with a high in the low 40s and partly to mostly cloudy skies.
Salzwedel said it will feel better on Sunday, with temperatures stretching into the mid-40s or 50s, and shift toward more seasonal weather next week.

Domestic help is a billion-pound industry, as big now as it was before World War Two, yet there is a whiff of embarrassment about this lucrative business. We've all known friends or family who have cleaned the house before the cleaner got there, or who asked the cleaner to hide if people came round.
Others refuse altogether, saying that it is unethical to take advantage of someone else's economic misfortune by paying them peanuts to clear up our mess. Yet we are happy to use accountants, hairdressers and dentists to perform tasks that we can't do and don't have the time to do, so why should having a cleaner be any different?
How to avoid a bad cleaning relationship
Once over the hump of the decision, there are ways of ensuring that you don't get trapped in a bad cleaning relationship:
- Even if you think you know, ask your new cleaner how long it would take them to clean your house, and if the two times are very different, negotiate a compromise.
- Take the time to explain where everything is and exactly what you want them to do on a daily/weekly/monthly basis. You can't expect them to clean the silver and hand-wipe each leaf of the bonsai tree if you've just waved a hand and said airily, "You'll know what to do".
- Don't move the goalposts; if you're asking them to take on more work, you must offer them more money, it's only fair.
- Try not to be embarrassed; they are seeing your life laid bare, and may be privy to your intimate secrets - but you have to accept that goes with the territory.
- Leave them to get on with the job in peace; they will find cleaning your house much easier if you are not following them from room, engaging them in conversation.
- If their cleaning isn't up to scratch, grab the bull by the horns, and tell them what's wrong; don't let resentment simmer beneath the surface.
- Make sure that your cupboard is well-stocked with all the cleaning products they need, and ask if stocks need replenishing.
- Always pay on time.
- Don't fuss around with presents at Christmas time: you're not embarrassed to get a financial bonus at the end of the year so why would they be?

We had the opportunity to work with Sesame Street Live "When Elmo Grows Up" to arrange giveaways on three blogs, plus provide 12 tickets to New York City-area children's charities.
Madison Square Garden is no stranger to giving, either: The Garden of Dreams Foundation "makes dreams come true for kids in crisis".
As soon as we have the charity choices, we will be sharing more information about these wonderful organizations and how you can help out with your local chapters.

Things are wild in Port Charles right now and new spoilers for "General Hospital" show that it is going to be a crazy week. On Sunday, the show went to their Facebook page to share a preview of the upcoming week. This clip shows that Carlos is in jail still and they want to know what Ava knows.
Carlos is in jail explaining that Sabrina is not his girlfriend anymore. He blew it with her a long time ago and he wants to make it up to her. It has always been very obvious that he is very protective of her. They know that Ava is going after her and that is pretty low. It is time to figure out what Ava is hiding which will also mean keeping Sabrina safe.
The preview pictures show that Emma will find out she is having a baby brother this week. The unthinkable will happen at AJ's funeral. It shows a clip where Sonny is there, but the ghost of AJ is standing next to him. Britt also has people upset at her again which seems to be pretty normal on this show.
Celeb Dirty Laundry also shared a few spoilers about what is going on in Port Charles. Luke Spencer is just not the same and everyone wants to know what is going on with him. It feels like it is actually an impostor that is acting as Luke now. If not, then something is off with him and he was changed when he was kidnapped. Fans just find it hard to believe that this is the real Luke that they are seeing now. He just isn't the same at all.

Minnesota Gubernatorial Candidate
http://community.webtv.net/coralcalcium/BIOGRAPHY email@example.com
(Abraham Lincoln run ten times unsuccessfully, but on the eleventh, he won the Presidency.)
Meet the candidate:
Gayle-Lynn is single mother of two teenage children, fifty-nine years of age, co-founder of a construction company and residential property rental business, holds college degree in Theology. She was born in Michigan, and has previously lived in New York and California; and lived in Arizona and New Mexico while doing missionary work. She has been a resident of Minnesota for the past twelve years.
Gayle LeMaster is facing a large pack of opponents, consisting of eleven men, four women and four unnamed candidates, all seeking the Office of Lieutenant Governor of Minnesota. Thomas A. Harens, James A. Mulder, Stephen Williams, Mark F. Workcuff are opposition candidates for Independence Party Ticket. William McGaugley, Gregory K. Soderberg, Annette Meeks, Todd "Elvis" Anderson and an unnamed candidate are candidates for the Republican Party. Yvonne Prettner Solon, Robyne Robinson, John Gunyou and Lady Jayne Fontaine are candidates on the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party.
Dan Dittman is candidate for the Green Party; Erin Wallace is candidate for the Ecology Democracy Party; and Edwin H. Engelmann is candidate for the Grassroots Party. Also, there is an unidentified candidate on the Libertarian Party Ticket; an independent Marijuana legalization candidate; and another unnamed independent candidate. This means that Gayle-Lynn will still face eight opposing candidates for Minnesota Lieutenant Governor in November's General Election.
In the Minnesota Gubernatorial Election, as Lieutenant Governor, Gayle LeMaster's opponents range from PROFESSIONAL POLITICIANS to who knows what, since some have made or published no statement of background, stance on issues important to voters, or photograph depicting their general appearance. Some are single issue candidates, with little or no stance on other issues of importance to the voters. In this publication, it is believed that Gayle-Lynn has addressed these single issue matters or concerns, very well.
Voters should by now realize that career politicians represent more of the same gutting and destroying of Minnesotans' pursuit of Happiness. Therefore, Gayle-Lynn has chosen to give disclosure of where she stands on issues that are important to the survival of the State of Minnesota; giving the voters an opportunity to make intelligence choice, absent of political hype, disinformation or fluff. If Minnesotans truly want "change", Gayle-Lynn offers change to benefit Minnesotans and their future.
Gayle-Lynn is a major advocate for restoring and protecting our right to vote on elections of judges, and for judicial reform and accountability. She has testified before the State Legislature twice as to the issue of corrupt judiciary and the need for reform. As Lieutenant Governor, she will actively work for judicial reform and for the Legislature to fulfill their Constitutional requirement, impeachment of corrupt judges. The State Legislature has NEVER impeached any judges; it is high time for them to now take action.
Gayle-Lynn is a major supporter and advocate of returning the Grand Jury to their proper power and place, and the Right to access the Grand Juries freely by the people of Minnesota; and breaking stranglehold of BAR members, who hinder filing and prosecution of criminal cases in this state, turning grand juries into mere pocket juries, which are controlled by County Attorneys, who frequently secret or block criminal information or activity from these present pocket juries, protecting other corrupt BAR members and bureaucrats from prosecution, while promoting organized crime in the halls of government and giving bad name to our justice system.
Gayle-Lynn favors the abolishing of the Minnesota BAR's monopoly and control over our judiciary, legislature and executive offices. She is an avid supporter of constitutional separation of powers: no member of the judiciary shall hold office in the legislative or executive branches. All, ALL, members of the BAR are "officers of the court". Therefore, they go "in disguise in premise under color of law, custom, practice or policy" while acting as legislators or executives in direct violation of constitutional mandates and their oaths of office.
However, law enforcers, while issuing so-called "CITATION", are "going in disguise upon the highway under color of law, custom, practice or policy" acting as "officers of the court". Does anyone see the violations of OATHS of Office? These people swear oaths to support and uphold the Constitutions of the State of Minnesota and The United States, and then violate their Oaths daily, for personal gain; giving no care or concern to the harm that they cause to the people. These unconstitutional laws, customs, practices and policies must cease and desist.
Gayle-Lynn, over the past four years, has been Plaintiff in a multimillion dollar lawsuit, which various BAR members have entered and withdrawn on both sides of this Case. Most have proven that they will not represent their client against corrupt judiciary, that they are for sale to the highest bidder, or to those who will grease their palms the most. They have also proven that they are well practiced and good at being DISINGENUOUS and PICK-POCKETS, with impunity.
This Suit has cost Gayle-Lynn hundreds of thousands of dollars, with attorneys and judges all attempting to break her and pressure her into dropping the Suit, or into accepting some sort of conspired, orchestrated compromise. In June, they held "Trial" behind closed doors, while knowing she lay in a hospital bed on a heart monitor. The sign on the locked courtroom door read: "No one permitted in this courtroom without first registering with the Clerk of Court."
This action was taken to prevent any courtroom observers or members of the press from seeing, hearing or reporting what these criminals conspired in secret. Though, over the past four years, they have held many "Star Chamber" proceedings without Gayle-Lynn's presence, usually off the record. She had Attorneys withdraw as her counsel after attending such secret meetings. The Court continually has treated her as if she were the Defendant, instead of as the Plaintiff.
In the two day June Star Chamber proceedings, with ONLY Court Officers, Defendant (another "Good-old-boy"), his supporters or 'witnesses' and his Attorney present, undisclosed Judgments were entered against Gayle-Lynn by a judge already under Petition for Recusal due to unclean hands and conspiracy to DEFRAUD, and with documented Verified Criminal Complaints resulting from that Case, which Complaints were previously filed against him at Federal, State and Local levels as yet to no avail.
This year during Criminal Contempt proceedings, the judge refused to find Defendant in contempt for intentional nonpayment of court-ordered obligations; thereby, causing court sanctioned financial duress to Gayle-Lynn. Then the same Judge unlawfully seized Gayle-Lynn's home and contents, turning possession over to Defendant, which left Gayle-Lynn and her two children homeless and in the street.
Also, this year Gayle-Lynn was forced into defending several illegal foreclosures or claims for liens against her properties; said Cases arising because of Defendant's forging of Gayle-Lynn's signature and commission of other fraudulent acts. Gayle-Lynn's responding Petitions were denied or refused to be heard, resulting in personal properties and evidence being seized or destroyed.
The Judge, who seized Gayle-Lynn's home, also utilized the bogus "Star Chamber Trial" while knowing Gayle-Lynn was in the hospital, to alter custody status of her son, taking custody from her without authority, cause, or even a hearing on the merits. This demonstrates the retaliation ability and cruelty of members of the BAR, it's organized crime syndicate and apparent (In)Just-US system.
It appears that they are attempting to make an example of Gayle-Lynn for testifying on State Capitol Hill against their criminal organization, as well as for her filing Verified Criminal Complaints against several judicial and BAR members. This criminal activity includes, but is not limited to, perjury, theft, conspiracy to embezzle or conceal embezzlement, conspiracy to conceal crimes against children, conspiracy to falsify bank records and conceal forgery of bank instruments, conspiracy to conceal income tax fraud and filing of false, or fraudulent instruments, and conspiracy to shield from prosecution.
Several Judges and the County Prosecutor have unlawfully withheld evidence, documentation and affidavits addressed to the Grand Jury, while the County Prosecutor (DA) refuses to prosecute any "Good-old-Boys". But then, why should he, since he too is Party to and named in some of these crimes.
The Attorney General claims that she has no authority to bring action in these matters against fellow BAR members, however, as member of the BAR, she holds office unconstitutionally in violation of Separation of Powers provision of the Constitution.
The State Legislature has the authority to impeach; however, they have NEVER exercised that authority. Why should they, since the Legislature is controlled unconstitutionally by members of the BAR, who also hold office in direct violation of Separation of Powers Clause of the Constitution.
Gayle-Lynn was forced to file for Appeal, however, the lower courts have SEALED some records, refused to release others, and hindered the process, therefore, blocking her from moving forward with her Appeal. The Court of Appeal failed or refused to issue Writ of Mandamus or issue a timely Emergency Stay of Proceedings or Emergency Restraining Order, and now is recommending Mediation despite historical domestic violence and abuse involved in that Case, which, by law, predisposes use of mediation as inappropriate. Therefore, she is caught in limbo, due to judiciary having conflict of interest, yet all working hard to protect each other in their apparent (In)Just-US system.
Since September 2009, the Court has withheld over $70,000 from Gayle-Lynn and her children, which was court ORDERED to be paid to her. Member's of the BAR and their "Good-old-boys" network are doing all that they can behind the scene to destroy her and to prevent her from revealing their scheme, and from becoming the next Lieutenant Governor of Minnesota. Can anyone say, "RICO"?
Gayle-Lynn does not imply that all Lawyers are bad, since in the past four years she has met with or received telephone calls from numerous Lawyers, who have warned her about the judicial "Good-old-boys" network, and have thanked her for taking a stand and testifying before the Legislature on judicial corruption and need for judicial accountability and reform. Some Lawyers are tired of being forced to grease judges' palms.
This problem is NOT about Gayle-Lynn or her case, since this corrupt judiciary has destroyed the lives of thousands of Minnesotans, while enriching the "Good-old-Boys". . The concern arises because this abuse of authority, and lawlessness are a resounding pattern, being perpetrated against the people over and over by their private corporate court system and judiciary, without solutions in sight. This situation is so widespread throughout the court system it has unfortunately become the norm, and has filled lives of honest people with an aftermath of tragic devastation. Gayle-Lynn believes the rampant corruption must be stopped, exposed, addressed, rectified, and avenues of true justice be given back to the people at all costs.
Gayle-Lynn believes the people have a Right to unbiased counsel, untainted Judiciary, and Truth in the Courtroom. Perjury with impunity in the courtroom by public officials should not be the norm.
Gayle-Lynn welcomes anyone equally desiring a purified Legal and Judicial System, to stand and be counted. Join with me in this battle against corruption and tyranny.
Gayle-Lynn believes we should educate our children as to the Law and Constitution, protection of Rights, and the true Rule of Law from an early age. "The average farmer in 1834, with a high school education, had a better education then the average attorney of today." It is time to return to that high standard of education.
Gayle-Lynn supports alternative schooling, both private schools and home school. She is totally against the precept that children are property of the State, and is against State meddling in our lives, the lives of our children, or such schooling curriculum. The family is the most sacred unit of our society. Members of the BAR daily prey on the destruction of this unit, for their own enrichment.
Gayle-Lynn supports and advocates vigorously, the Right and need for everyone to chose and practice their own Health and Health Care decisions and options; and the right of access to alternative treatments and methods.
Gayle-Lynn supports and advocates protection of the people's right to alternative medicine and right to freely access vitamins, nutrients or supplements without government interference.
Gayle-Lynn supports and is an advocate for the "Right to life". She believes that the government sponsored murder of one million babies each year is unacceptable, and its new euthanasia (so-called health care) plan is like wise. As Lieutenant Governor, she will work to prevent Minnesota from participating in this genocide of our people.
Gayle-Lynn is against government mandate of health insurance or any government mandated contracts, since the Constitution for the United States of America mandates that no government shall pass any "Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts." Therefore, how can government mandate the entering of fraudulent contract through coercion or threat of duress, causing Obligation without informed voluntary consent? The Law requires that contracts must be entered voluntarily with full disclosure, without coercion, threat of duress, misrepresentation or fraud.
Gayle-Lynn supports and is an advocate for the "Right to keep and bear arms", which "shall not be infringed". She supports the forming and training of local militias throughout the state for our common defense. By law, all able-bodied men between the ages of 15 and 70 are automatically members of the state militia. Most members of the state militia are not subject to the call of the President, and are solely for the protection of the state and our various communities, protecting Minnesotans from all enemies foreign or domestic.
Gayle-Lynn believes in these maxims of law: Everyone's home is their castle; and everyone is a sheriff at their front door. Those who wish to establish a police state do not wish to be reminded of these maxims of law, since they promote unwarranted searches and wish to quarter paramilitary troops.
Gayle-Lynn supports and advocates the end of State meddling in family and religious rights by its attempts to regulate or license what are guaranteed or protected Rights. The requiring of the good people of this State to purchase indulgences or to practice certain religious acts under color of law, custom or policy is unconscionable.
Gayle-Lynn supports and advocates personal property rights; and the Right to privacy, is paramount. As Lieutenant Governor, Gayle-Lynn will work to put an end to unlawful foreclosures in this State by corrupt big banks and foreign corporations, who are without standing in our courts. At present, Minnesota is ranked among the top five States in home foreclosures, this must not continue, since this is a sure sign of the coming death of this State. In the State of Michigan, people, who were evicted from their homes through illegal bank (RICO) schemes, have left that state by the thousands.
Gayle-Lynn supports and advocates transparency and open government. Gayle-Lynn as Lieutenant Governor will open not only the State Budget for public review, but the State Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, as well, which is normally concealed from public view. That is correct, all corporate States and Municipalities maintain two sets of books; one for public consumption and the other for insiders use only. The CAFR discloses what truly happens to our tax dollars; where the State Budget is a mere whitewash and usually untruthful.
Gayle-Lynn supports and advocates the farmer's right to grow crops from heirloom seed free of chemicals and corruption, to freely grow cash crops as they desire, and to protect this state from GMO pollution. She, also, promotes return to organic gardening and farming. It is time to end government censoring of natural and organic cash crops.
Gayle-Lynn supports and advocates the return or development of ecological and energy efficient industry or manufacturing, since production of energy, tools and machinery are essential to our state's independence.
Gayle-Lynn supports free enterprise over monopoly capitalism and big corporations. Minnesota is in dire need of promotion and protection of mom and pop businesses and farms throughout the great state. Expanding of foreign goods and produce importation in competition to local businesses and farms is unacceptable. As Lieutenant Governor, Gayle-Lynn shall promote Minnesota business and farming as FIRST and foremost.
The continued surrender of Minnesota businesses to foreign control is unacceptable; even that of CHINA-MART. If businesses remain owned and controlled by citizens of Minnesota then most of the assets will remain here. When businesses become foreign owned the assets are removed from Minnesota, which is not in the best interest of our people or state.
Gayle-Lynn supports and advocates the development, use and circulation of local currency, which will promote and protect local merchants and markets; thereby, alleviating dependency on inflationary Federal Notes.
As Lieutenant Government, Gayle-Lynn will set the people of Minnesota, their well being and interests as priority. Big corporations should not be allowed to control State government; such control is called Fabian Socialism or Fascism.
Gayle-Lynn supports and advocates the Truth that Minnesota is a sovereign nation, and has the Right to maintain and perform all actions as such, for benefit of those living here, as free independent state.
As Thomas Jefferson, Gayle-Lynn comes with a new broom and intends to make a clean sweep. She owes no allegiance to any special interest groups, big corporations or secret societies. It is high time to rout the vipers out of the State Capital and Judiciary.
On August 10, 2010, VOTE Phil Ratté for Governor and Gayle-Lynn: LeMaster for Lieutenant Governor.
Thank you!

The mom who wonders how to handle the parents of aggressive kids
A child at my 2-year-old daughter's nanny share hits, pinches, and bites other kids, her mother, and the nanny when she's tired or upset. I understand this is fairly typical 2-year-old behavior, but her mom doesn't discipline her at all when it happens -- a mild

Thank you, thank you, thank you, mom of 3 boys! (posted at 10:31 a.m.) People do feel very free to give any advice about parenting, and no two people advise the same technique. I agree with you - kids don't necessarily learn aggression; they use it when they don't have the verbal skills and impulse control to do otherwise. A friend of mine from Chile was surprised at Americans' attitudes towards expecting perfectly-behaved children in public. She said in her culture people understand that toddlers have tantrums and don't expect parents to rush to remove them from the situation - life goes on! We live in sort of a talking head society, always free to give commentary, but not so willing to help out when needed. I also posted earlier about having a son who used to be aggressive when he was younger. If we listened to all the advice people freely gave - neighbors, teachers, random strangers - our parenting would have changed all the time. I try to stick with what my gut says and remember that no one knows everything about parenting. Let's tolerate each others' kids and parenting abilities and help ease the anxiety we all feel as parents.posted 04/11/2007 by xenabe
My son went through several aggressive stages, biting, hitting and scratching. Our pediatrician said that the reason he did these behaviors was to get attention, even if it was negative. Her suggestion was for us to give him a stern, "No," and "THE LOOK" and then pay copious amounts of attention to the injured party, virtually ignoring him. It worked like a charm. Of course, I had to inform the other mothers and caregivers that that was the technique that we were employing, lest they think that we were not disciplining our son appropriately. Most understood. You might mention this tactic to the nanny, or perhaps they're already using it.posted 04/11/2007 by Cubits
I have a child who doesn't bite, but hits. He is 2 1/2.Whenever we go to the playground and he hits, i give him s stern 'no' and bring him home right away. He understands that he is not supposed to hit and doesn't get to play anymore if he does.. in fact, before we go to the playground he always tells me that he will not hit, but which he does almost as soon as we get there and he will cry all the way home. I'm still struggling with this and to some extend i'm afraid of taking him to visit friends and family. Kim, if you feel you need to say something to the mother of the kid who bites, do so, but please do so kindly. I don't think i would be offended if someone offered me ideas on how to discipline my child as long as it is not done in an accusatory manner. To KP, what you say about working mothers is totally unfair. I'm a single mom, who's going to feed my child if i don't work? Not everyone of us is so lucky to be able to stay at homeposted 04/19/2007 by vine212
My two kids and myself spend a lot of time at the park next to our house, and on any given day, there are at least a dozen other kids and moms there too. There have been many times when other kids have hit or been mean to my kids, and there have been times when my own children have done the same. In each instance, there has NEVER been a time when I have clashed with other moms because we are always careful to point out bad behavior NICELY and politely. I think being mindful of other people's feelings is extremely important, and almost always produces a positive reaction.posted 04/20/2007 by Megamama47
"Not Taking It" - your comment: "Should I see him again, I will definitely tell him that his child is not welcome to play with mine because of her aggressive behavior and until she learns to control herself, she is not welcome near either of us." Why would you do this to this father? He clearly knows his daughter has aggression issues, he made her apologize the first time, and removed her from the situation when she got worse. What good would you do getting all high and mighty about it with him? I have friends who have gone through this with their kids...it's hard to get through, it's embarrassing, and very frustrating. He knows she's got aggression problems, and he's clearly working on it. Lighten up on the guy and have some empathy. His daughter's a preschooler, not an adult. She'll learn with time. If you're so concerned, talk to the teacher, but don't make that poor guy feel like more of a heel than he already does.posted 04/10/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
I am surprised (and maybe I just missed it) that I haven't seen anyone suggest talking to the nanny. After all, she's in a great position to act as a mediator here-and in fact she SHOULD. She doesn't want to lose 90% of her clients because of one bad apple, and in many ways it is up to her to lay the ground rules for what happens on her watch. She may choose to talk to the mom of the offender, or she may offer you some insight into what is happening with that child and ask for your patience. I have a dear friend who worked as a nanny for years and believe me, she had a whole bag of tricks up her sleeve for handling these kinds of situations. And if she couldn't come to some sort of agreement with the parents of a difficult child (or if the parents were difficult!) she would drop that family as a client. If your nanny doesn't have some kind of ground rules in place and/or can't facilitate a situation like this, you may want to look elsewhere.posted 05/20/2007 by bbcake916
I am the mother of a biter, so I am asking you to please be patient. My son went through a short phase and what we did was found the "triggers" and focused on preventing those from happening. I was embarrassed and sad each time I picked him up and was told he had bitten another child. You never know the situation with that mother - maybe she is too embarrassed to say anything while there. I am afraid if you do say something to her it would cause some really hard feelings and some uncomfortable moments. Remind your child the behaviour is unacceptable and that maybe he/she should not play with the "biter" until he/she grows out of it. I've been on both ends - the biter and the bitten and neither one is any fun. Please, put yourself in her shoes.posted 04/11/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
Though my 5-year-old didn't used to bite, he did used to have a problem being aggressive - pushing, hitting, and once even scratching a boy in the face. I was mortified, he was disciplined (he had to stop playing with kids for the day or had a time-out, depending on the situation), but still he continued to be aggressive. One person said he needed to be spanked because our discipline wasn't working, and his preschool teacher asked if we spanked him because that would result in him resorting to aggression when he's frustrated! I know this isn't the same situation as the mom who didn't say anything to her 2-year-old, but I wanted to vent that it's no fun having the aggressive kid! Not to mention the advice it garners - from all points of view. We've had lots of talks about other tools he can use when he's frustrated, and he doesn't do this much anymore. But I think his personality is more intense, and even with us (mom and dad) teaching him how to cool down, he may struggle with temper issues for a while. It doesn't help that he's a firstborn being parented by 2 firstborns, but we certainly don't have an aggressive or hostile home environment. Thanks for understanding...posted 04/11/2007 by xenabe
I think that if the child hits/bites or pinches your child, then you have the right to say something. If not, I think the Nanny should say something being the caregiver. If she doesn't discipline, it may be because of her fear of what people say and she may punish her when others aren't looking or she might feel a bad diciplining her child when she works throughout the day. A good way to approach it would be to use your experiences as a "subtle" example. Parents tend to get very defensive and shut down when unwanted advice comes their way. A lot of times it feels like they are attacking your child or parenting skills. I was recently on the other end of the situation. My son (2 years)started pushing kids to get their attention or if he got frustrated with other kids. I am very hesitant about spanking...although I have before. I am a 1st time mom and didn't know what to do. I sought advice wherever I could get it. I tried time-outs (which he liked). I tried spanking, pinching amd removing him from the situation. Nothing was helping. I was feeling helpless and embarrassed over my son's behavior. One day a friend and her daughter were with us at the library and our kids wanted to sit on the same stool. My son pushed her right on to the ground. I was horrified but what made it worse, was the look on my friends face. I could tell that she wanted me to spank my child right then and there. I didn't but took him to the car and scolded him and went home. It made me feel very uneasy with my friend because I felt judged. I spoke with her and my fears were correct. She told me she thought I should have spanked him right then. She also mentioned that her daughter pushed her older daughter and thought her daughter was picking up on my son's habits. I felt so defensive and upset. I would never tell someone how they should raise their kids. She forgot that her daughter being older than my son went through a hitting period. I knew it was just them being kids and never said a word. I also remember her pushing. It took a while before I would humble myself to talk with her. If she had used her daughter as an example on what I could do with my son, it would have made her comments a lot easier. No one wants to feel like a failure but we do need to know if our kids behave poorly. That is why I think the Nanny being responsible for all of the children, should be the 1st to speak to her. Either side of the situation is uncomfortable and you need to do what is best for your child.posted 04/10/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
My best friend's daughter (3.5) is very aggressive. My son (3 months younger) is very mild mannered and has been on the receiving end of her aggression for 2 years. Simply saying "we don't hit" or "we don't shove" has not worked for a long time. Neither does time out. I really like spending time with my friend, but I am tired of subjecting my son to his friend's behaviour. He says she is his friend and always asks to spend time with her, and when they play (and not fight), they play very well together. But he also says "Name Here hits" and "Name Here shoves" and it bothers me. She is sometimes now aggressive (not violent-- yet) towards my 16 MO son. But so far he doesn't stand for it and grabs back what she stole. I don't want to wait for her aggression to escalate to violence with yet another of my children. I want to spend time with my best friend, but the only time we have together is with our kids. Our husbands are good friends too. We have spoken about her daughter's aggression before and she knows I don't like it (logic- who would?). But how can we fix this situation and remain friends and still be able to spend time together?posted 04/17/2007 by dcheng1

Golf is a game that has changed dramatically in the last 20 years. Players have become more athletic, bigger, and stronger. Tiger Woods, without a doubt has led this revolution, and has made the game more popular among a variety of people around the world. That is why what Rory McIlroy is doing is doing is so special. At 5'9'' and maybe a buck seventy, he truly is a David among Goliaths. McIlroy won his fourth major tournament Sunday night at Valhalla, in the PGA Championship.
He is the third youngest player to reach four major wins by age twenty-five. The other players are Tiger Woods (24) and Jack Niclaus (25), that is some very rare air to be in. This is also his third victory in a row, including another major last month at the British Open. At twenty-five years of age Rory McIlroy is already a very seasoned player. Having had a short stint as the number one player in the world before slipping considerably after undergoing a swing change, and in a even more dramatic and prophetic move, signing a deal with Nike to use their equipment.
Rory struggled in 2013 as he got adjusted to his new sticks, drawing a lot of questions about the change, but I think that it is safe to say that he is feeling very good about that decision now.
Jordan and Tiger are still probably the biggest names in the Nike family, but very soon there is going to be another person on a one name basis with sports fans around the world, and his name is Rory.

Meat, potatoes and cabbage - this is the way most people in New York say when they talk about polish food. It is very hard to argue with them because so far nobody tried to show a polish cuisine from a different view. It was my dream to change that.
Next to the regular dishes like pierogis or stuffed cabbage I wanted to serve dishes that would show that polish cuisine is not only about potatoes and cabbage. The traditional polish cuisine is as rich as polish history.
Through many centuries polish cuisine was developing being influenced by French, Italian, German or Russian food. Many dishes like Beef Strogonow, scaloppini or pate found their home in polish menus. Recently we added to our menu dishes prepared out of game meat. Game meat is much healthier, contains less fat that regular meat, and healthier cholesterol. We recommend stuffed wild boar with cognac pepper sauce, venison meat balls with garden dumplings and mushroom truffle oil sauce or grilled pheasant breast served with port fig sauce. Lovers of vegetarian food we will satisfy with our addition of chef pierogies stuffed with goat cheese and spinach in chanterelle mushroom sauce, delicious soya "meat balls" served with thyme dill sauce or grilled crepes.
When you check in with a couple of friends you should definitely try our KORYTO which is a combination of many meats, pierogies, stuffed cabbage, polish kielbasa. Fallowing the tradition and the love to a perfect food "KrolewskieJadlo" restaurant serves dishes that can satisfy even the most sophisticated lovers of a good cuisine.
I have always dreamt about opening real polish restaurant, a restaurant that Polish people would not be ashamed of, a restaurant that will be loved by every nation that lives in Big Apple and finally a restaurant with a unique design and excellent food. From the very beginning "King's Feast" is going in direction to achieve all that. Every day we are trying to satisfy every need of our guests. With a tasty food and an excellent service I think we are doing good job of showing people that polish cuisine is more than potatoes and cabbage.
With a great pleasure I am inviting you to my restaurant. I know that when you try our delicious food served by a great staff in this unique indoors you will become our regular guest
I will do everything to satisfy you needs.
Krzysztof Drzewiecki
The chef and the owner of "King's Feast".

The USA men's hockey team started an uphill battle for the Olympic gold medal on Feb. 13. The rest of the Olympics likely won't be as easy for U.S. hockey as the second period against Slovakia was. However, the Americans will take any break they can get, including the ones that gave them a 7-1 win in their Olympic opener.
It took only 14 minutes in the second period for the U.S. to bury Slovakia. The period actually started with Slovakia evening the score at 1-1, 24 seconds in. Yet just over a minute later, the USA took the lead for good when Ryan Kesler opened the floodgates.
Paul Stastney kept the momentum going with a tally just 66 seconds later, then Slovakia settled down for almost six straight minutes. But the U.S. upped its lead to 4-1 on a David Backes goal, before Stastney racked up his second goal five minutes later. By the time Phil Kessel and Dustin Brown scored two more goals 57 seconds apart, the game became nothing but a formality.
The U.S. hockey team just had to avoid looking ahead to facing the host Russians on Feb. 15. For at least one big barrage, the Americans managed to do just that. Nevertheless, they can't count on a six-goal explosion to knock off Russia, although it certainly would help -- and could be necessary if the likes of Alex Ovechkin and Evgeni Malkin are on their game.
Ovechkin, Malkin and the Russians stayed on their game in their own opener, when they handled Slovenia by a mere 5-2. Ovechkin and Malin actually opened the scoring in the first period, which is the first of many positive signs the host country is looking for.
34 years ago, U.S. hockey had a signature Olympic triumph over the Russians on their home ice. Now in 2014, the Russians want to triumph over the U.S. and the world on their own home ice. Much has changed in three decades, with professional athletes skating in the Olympics and with the Russians no longer serving as hockey's superpower.
Regardless, the old USA-Russia memories can be evoked on Feb. 15. Now that they have each brushed aside their opening Olympics tests first, they have a little less to worry about -- although the Americans hope that they gave the Russians something to fear with their second period.

David Schwartz was born in 1923 and grew up in Brooklyn, New York. He moved to the San Francisco Bay Area to attend college after serving in World War II as part of the Army Signal Corps. He met his wife, Alice, in a class at the University of California, Berkeley, where he earned a degree in chemistry and she earned a degree in biochemistry. The couple cofounded Bio-Rad in 1952.
The idea that would launch Bio-Rad came about during a student bridge game in early 1952. The Schwartzes and the other bridge players joked about products that should be available but weren't on the market, such as tobacco mosaic virus, which Alice was using for scientific research and which required many days to prepare. Schwartz questioned why no one was manufacturing it and got an idea: why not create the tobacco mosaic virus and sell it to researchers? With the virus prepared for them in advance, researchers would save days of prep work and would be able to begin their research projects immediately.
The following day, the Schwartzes put the idea into motion by searching their Berkeley neighborhood for a site to launch a company that would provide products and tools to researchers. After they found a suitable site, they sent away for tobacco seeds. Once the tobacco mosaic virus was ready to be shipped, the couple came upon a stumbling block: they discovered that the world was not eagerly awaiting tobacco mosaic virus. But they persisted. Over the coming years they developed other more marketable research products that helped the company survive and grow. For more than 50 years Bio-Rad has thrived, playing a lead role in the advancement of scientific discovery and helping people live longer, healthier lives.
Under Schwartz's guidance the company has maintained a spirit of entrepreneurial adventure through the years and has evolved into a global enterprise, manufacturing and distributing a broad range of products for the life science research and clinical diagnostics markets. Bio-Rad is internationally renowned among hospitals, universities, and major research institutions, as well as biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. It serves more than 75,000 research and industry customers through its global network of operations. Bio-Rad employs over 5,000 people and has grown to over $1 billion in revenues.
Schwartz has cofounded and served on the boards of several companies, but his primary focus over the years has been fostering the growth of Bio-Rad. Schwartz was named a finalist for the Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award in 2003 and the organization presented him with a Lifetime Achievement Award that same year. He received the Pittcon Heritage Award in 2007.

After the snow plow finally came to set me free at about 10:30 this morning, I was able to make my way into Annapolis Royal to see what our latest snowstorm had left in its wake. I found pretty well what I expected. Large piles of snow, slippery roads and a collection of Annapolitans slowly digging themselves out. I took a few minutes to clear a path to the front of the O'Dell House Museum and then decided to see if I could find a few pictures along Lower St George Street. I knew that fellow photographer Trish Fry had a good representation of the phases of the storm in the Historic Gardens and upper town so I decided to concentrate on the area around the Museum. With a high proportion of 18th century buildings in this part of town, I wonder how many winter storms some of these houses have endured?
All for now,
