Dear Sales Associates,
The most recent edition at The Brooktown Weekly ran our advertisement with a misprint. It listed the end of our half-price sale as December 11 instead of December 1. While a correction will appear in the paper's next issue, it is to be expected that not all of our customers will be aware of the error. Therefore, if shoppers ask between December 2 and 11 about the sale, first apologize for the inconvenience and then offer them a coupon for 10닷 off any item they wish to purchase, either in the store or online.
Should customers have any further questions, please direct them to the floor manager. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

Business Briefs
AUCKLAND (6 June) - Ann Marie Haas, former executive director of Gear Good, a company that develops and sells software for bike-sharing companies, has a new but related position. —[1]—. Beginning in November, she will be general manager of City Wheels, a bike-sharing company in Auckland. — [2]—. The move comes at an opportune moment for both Ms. Haas and City Wheels. Ms. Haas had worked for Gear Good in Wellington since the company was founded five years ago but was yearning to return to Auckland, where she grew up. City Wheels was looking for a new leader to oversee its planned expansion from 50 to 75 bike stations in Auckland. —[3] —. “I’m thrilled to join a company that’s important to residents and tourists alike,” Ms. Haas said.
The City Wheels system is simple and affordable for occasional use. —[4] —. The first thirty minutes of biking are free, and after that, the cost is $4 per hour or $20 per day. Ms. Haas said she is enthusiastic about this venture, both for herself and for the city of Auckland. - Tahei Davis, Staff WriterClaire Cha 3:55 P.M.

Planterville, VA 42558 Airport Expansion Continues
26 May – A major airport expansion project is under way in Onalia City. The project is estimated to cost $1,6 billion, and a new terminal is scheduled to open for international service in approximately one year.
The airport, however, sits on a confined piece of land, which presents significant challenges to increasing the number of takeoffs and landings. If the airport remains limited to its current two runways, the capacity to handle air traffic could be reached within three years.
To address the problem, officials overseeing the Onalia City Airport project have contracted a group of engineers from Wilford Engineering to explore the possibility of extending a third runway over the Pacific Ocean. The engineering firm will survey the area for six months before presenting their findings and recommending a plan of action.
Runways that extend over water are not unprecedented. This type of runway exists in places such as Gibraltar and Japan, which have faced similar challenges.Dubai Ecological Construction Expo

Dear Mr.Galt,
Thank you again for agreeing to serve on the organizing committee tor the Caribbean Professional Screenwriters (CPS) Conference. I am following up on our initial meeting about speakers and presenters.
I get the impression that Timothy Primus, our first choice, may be out of our price range. However, I’ve been pursuing sonic funding in the form of government grants. If these resources come through, I'll try to secure Mr. Primus; otherwise, Laura Tambie may be a good option. In the meantime, I hope your efforts to recruit the other six panelists for the “Meet and Learn” session will be successful.

Dear Mr, Greenidge.
I kindly request that management consider entering our company in the CASATO Virtual Business Tournament. The competition, organized by the Caribbean & South American Trade Organization (CASATO), requires participants to develop and implement business strategies that ensure the long-term stability and continuity or an imaginary company.
Participation in this event could be highly beneficial to our company. Though many tournament participants occupy non-decision-making positions in their organization, the contest demands that they apply a broad range of leadership practices. In the process, most become more appreciative of the day-to-day realities and complexities of managing an actual company. Moreover, they tend to apply the skills acquired or refined during the competition — such as collaboration, analysis, and problem-solving — in actual work situations. Additionally, participation in the event may increase our company’s profile, opening up new markets for our products. Roughly six months after last year’s tournament, about one-third of the 70 companies that had taken part in that event reported an increase in regional business activities.
Details about the tournament are available at wwwxasato.org/events/tournament_information.

Dear Mr. Cutler,
I first came across Cutlers Rare Books at the Antiquarian Book Fair in California last year. After noting the high quality and wide range of our product, I decided to purchase several bodes from your online store. As I am not interested in having damaged hooks m my collection, I carefully read the descriptions of the condition before making my purchase. I was assured that the books were undamaged and in their original condition. When 1 examined the books on their arrival, I discovered that the Norris volume had been sloppily glued and rebound within the last several years.
Please contact me at your earliest convenience to discuss this disappointing situation.

Let me assure you that I carefully check all of our books myself before their descriptions are entered in our sales catalog, I distinctly remember examining the volume in question when it arrived and again before it was packaged for shipping to you. It is my professional opinion that the book was rebound by its original owner over 70 years ago. Therefore, the book is in its original condition by the standards of our industry.

-------------------------------------------------New Equipment a Boon for LTL
7 January
By Desmond Xucling
Tucked into a busy industrial area in Singapore, the LTL manufacturing facility is small, gray, and unassuming. But the " building’s nondescript exterior masks an abundance of color and activity inside. Early on a sunny December morning, two enormous new textile-printing machines were already churning out the largest swaths of fabric ever processed by the factory.
“Each machine is well over three meters wide,” said LTL’s Felicity Tong, who accompanied us on a tour of the factory floor. “Our machine operators are still learning to use the machines effectively, as you can see from this pile of rejected pieces, Ms. Tong remarked. “The machines are efficient, but mastering them is posing some challenges for our work crews.
The machines come with the potential for big profits. Company CEO Ravinder Kapur commented that the demand for his company’s fabrics has grown in recent years. “These machines will allow us to print on vinyl and other materials that we had lacked the resources to work with,” he said. “We’re very pleased to be able to satisfy client demand”.
