"Increased Sales Due to Promotional Program At the end of June, food producer Tara Company saw a 19% rise in its sales, a welcome development, following the downward trend reported in the last annual report. This figure is attributed to the company's Triton Promotional Program, which was launched in January. The Triton Program offers customers prizes for points they collect when purchasing products. The special red “T” logo was designed for Triton products; Triton's crackers, soft drinks, and butter now carry the logo. The program includes only Triton's products, but the promotional program has proven so successful that this September, the company will begin placing the “T” logo on products licensed and produced by its partner companies. Among the Triton products, those currently offered at the discounted rate are not included in the program. For example, Triton brand cookies, which are now offered at a special introductory price, will be regularly priced starting in September. Prizes include hats, key chains, televisions, DVD players and bicycles. But some products attract more attention than others. As company spokesperson Alex Gray said ""Most customers don't exchange the points until they reach 1,000. That number can be exchanged for the highly popular prizes."" Collect Tara Points ! ! ! Start collecting points every time you buy a Triton product with the “T” logo (shown on left). You earn up to 10 points that you can exchange for one of the exciting prizes below. No. of Points Awards 100 Triton hat or key chain 300 DVD player 500 Bicycle 1000 Television

The east wing will have the updates next weekend, Anyone who needs access to security information must receive a short training session and receive new usernames and passwords. After Friday afternoon, intranet access will be denied to anyone not equipped with the new Gigawire password information. In order to receive new access information, you must attend the training session on Sunday afternoon Please sign up for the session and leave your username and password on the sign-up sheet in my office. PLEASE DON'T MISS IT! I will be leaving by 5:30 on Friday, so please make sure ALL of you have signed up for the short training session and left your access information by that time. For questions, please email or call me at ext. 323- Date & Time of Incoming Gait: 1:00 pm .Juno 8 For: Gillian Jules Sender: Krich Gomez Although t understand all hate last minute surprises, t have to raise a red flag in this particular situation. As you may recall, there was a network outage early this week, and currentlywe are falling behind schedule. At this time we don't know how long this fix will last without causing any additional problems. My director, Kevin Farr, reported die detailed situation and potential risks to the Chief Information Officer, and this morning they reached the decision that this issue should be handled as a number one priority and the permanent fix must be put in place ASAP, Any work that may impact the resolution of this Issue has to be put off until the root cause is identified and a satisfying solution gets implemented. Therefore, unfortunately the new security system installation can't be performed this weekend. I advise you to re-schedule the installation for the beginning of next munth so that network engineers have enough time to troubleshoot the issue. Any lime before then, you can complete the training session for everybody. That way, it won't impact your schedule too much. I'm sorry fur any inconvenience and will keep you updated. For any questions, please let me or Kevin know.

I have looked for flights on Ihe Intemet and found a lew oossibilities You had indicated that you wanted to fly to Vancouver but that might not be the best plan. Although it is a cheaper flight, we'd then have to take a ferry to Victoria, which would take a long time I'd prefer to fly directly to Victoria, Also, the morning flight would be ideal We would have lime m the afternoon to see the city before the conference starts the next day Please let me know what you prefer Please see the attached flight schedules.We also need to reserve hotel rooms. The conference organizer informed me that the Slue Sea Inn does HD! have rooms left until the beginning of August. It is very disappointing because to stay at the same hotel where the conference is being held would be very convenient ior us. However, there are other options. Vivian Hotel and Squall Hotel are within walking distance. If they are full, there is the Blue Nose Hole:. Would you arrange a holel room for us? The hotel phone numbers are on Lhe conference web site. We'll have to reserve 5 days. The conference is from August 6 to 11, but we should try to arrive In Victoria on August 5 and leave on August 12.

We have been feeling pressure from above to increase circulation. But this year's numbers are up two percent compared to last year's! That is magnificent when you consider that firstly, our population base here in the Kelbyville area has actually shrunk by four percent in the last year; and secondly, almost none of the major newspapers in the nation are doing as well as we are. So I want to say congratulations to everybody. You are doing terrific, terrific work and I am well aware of it. Keep it up.
