INSIDER Introduces "Marc Ullman FYI Blog"

PHOENIX--Virgo Publishing introduced the "Marc Ullman FYI Blog" on the Web site for Natural Products INSIDER magazine. Ullman, a partner at the law firm Ullman, Shapiro & Ullman, has distributed a popular "FYI" e-mail update to industry executives. The new blog enables Ullman to post comments, field questions and moderate an ongoing dialogue with industry members on current topical issues. The blog is available at www.naturalproductsinsider.com/blog.

"This is an excellent forum for the industry to share opinions, debate the issues and confront controversy," Ullman said. "The INSIDER Web site is an invaluable resource and I am pleased to be a part of it in such an interactive way. I'll make every effort to see that the opinions expressed on the blog are heard by our industry leaders."
