Attorney Richard E. Ramsey will be speaking on
the Constitution in our daily lives.
The National Society Daughters of the American
Revolution was founded on October 11, 1890,
during a time that was marked by a revival in
patriotism and intense interest in the
beginnings of the United States of America.
Women felt the desire to express their patriotic
feelings and were frustrated by their exclusion
from men's organizations formed to perpetuate
the memory of ancestors who fought to make this
country free and independent. As a result, a
group of pioneering women in the nation's
capital formed their own organization and the
Daughters of the American Revolution has carried
the torch of patriotism ever since.

Food and Beverage establishment
liability: debunking cases through science & research
Wynn
Las Vegas, NV
Date:
September 10 - 13, 2008
Moderator:
Constantine
"Dean" Nickas
This program is not for the faint of heart. It will
address means by which food service establishments
can defend against claims that pests or foreign
objects were allegedly “found” in their food. Our
panel of industry and legal experts will demonstrate
the CSI means by which to refute claims that “I
found a mouse in my sandwich” or “There’s a frog in
my salad.” Additionally, we will address incubation
periods for the typical viral and bacterial
illnesses that plaintiff’s frequently claim was
contracted at their local restaurant, all the while
denying vehemently that their illness could have
been caused by bad food safety practices in the
home.
This event is by invitation only.
