Featured Destination of the Week: Sea Lion Caves, Florence, Oregon
By Shirley BertramCalifornia natives know all about their own state’s golden shoreline and picturesque national parks, but one often overlooked point of interest, found just a few miles across the state border, is the Sea Lion Caves in Oregon. Here, visitors can view these magnificent creatures from the safety of underground viewing windows. According to one tourist’s account, “The Sea Lion Caves provide an opportunity to truly see how these animals act in their natural habitat. I found it mesmerizing.” The caves, which have been receiving visitors for more than five decades, are entered via use of an elevator underground.
-[1]- Located near the coastal town of Florence, the caves are easily accessible from the main highway and feature many signs offering wildlife information, making this an ideal destination for the whole family during the school holidays. -[2]- Visitors should book tickets in advance to avoid disappointment, as the caves can become quite crowded during peak tourist seasons. Jackets are advisable because the temperature drops considerably underground. I would also suggest arriving in the morning, as the sea lions are often at their most active during this time.
-[3]- After watching the sea lions feasting on fish, visitors are bound to feel hungry themselves. The nearby Caves Restaurant provides budget-friendly options, with plenty of seafood and vegetarian choices. It also boasts an extensive dessert menu. -[4]- This is particularly true for those with young children.
California Traveler rating: 9/10.- refer to the following online chat discussion.

I’m sure you’re aware that the Health Inspection Agency has introduced new food storage procedures. They go into effect next month.
Bill Oswalt
9:43 A.M.
Right. And it’s not just for restaurants like ours. The policy applies to other businesses as well.
Brian Dimarco
9:45 A.M.
Yes, it applies to any business that cooks or serves food. So, hotels, catering companies, cafés, and bars are affected too.
Bill Oswalt
9:46 A.M.
Okay, so what exactly is different? I know that inspections will now occur twice a year instead of just annually. But, what specifically will health agents check?
Lucia Rohn
9:48 A.M.
For one thing, in the past, chemicals needed to be stored separately from food, but now they have to be kept in a locked room.
Brian Dimarco
9:50 A.M.
Storage rules in general are much stricter. Products have always been dated upon delivery, but now we must ensure that we store new items behind the old ones. And, raw meat and cooked meat must be kept on different shelves in the fridges.
Bill Oswalt
9:53 A.M.
That is a little overwhelming. Will we be able to implement all of this?
Lucia Rohn
9:55 A.M.
I’m going to write a memo explaining the changes. Staff members can refer back to it as often as they need to.
Brian Dimarco
9:57 A.M.
I’m willing to take each of the staff members into the kitchen and actually show them the steps to follow these new regulations.
Lucia Rohn 9:59 A.M.
Actually, that sounds helpful. I accept the offer. It’s easier to remember things you’ve seen and not just read.

Subject: My stay with theGrand Orchard Hotel
Dear Grand Orchard Hotel,
I am writing to bring to your attention my unpleasant experience during my stay at your hotel last weekend. — [1] — I stayed with you after I missed my 4 P.M. flight out of Bangkok on Saturday, December 19. Instead of trying to catch the next available flight, I decided to look for a hotel near the airport and leave for my business trip to Incheon and Seoul on Sunday.
I thought I could relax and forget about my hectic day, but I was wrong. When I checked in, your front desk receptionist, Marvin Shamitra, gave me a dinner buffet voucher. He said it was a complimentary gift from the hotel. However, when I presented the voucher at your restaurant, the waiter told me it had already expired. I didn’t want to argue with him, so I paid for my meal. — [2] —
After dinner, I went to my room to watch TV, but it wouldn’t turn on. I decided to take a warm bath before going to bed instead. While trying to empty the bath, I noticed that the drain in the bathtub was clogged. Even worse, when I lifted the comforter, I saw some ants on my bed. When I finally complained about my room, I waited thirty minutes for a new one.
— [3] — I have been traveling overseas frequently since I was fourteen, and I must say that your hotel is the worst I have ever been in. — [4] — Furthermore, I expect immediate action to be taken in regard to my complaint.

Dynamix Chemicals Continues Climb to Prominence
March Dynamix Chemicals began as a small start-up in Jaipur with a laboratory staff of fewer than thirty people. Struggling for several years, the company finally began thriving after the launch of Sculptio, its now best-selling product. Sculptio is a non-toxic substance that can be molded into any shape while remaining flexible after it sets. The product’s versatility led to its use in a wide range of sectors, including everything from furniture manufacturing to cable installation.
The company is hoping to repeat Sculptio’s success with the much-anticipated product launch of Traction-Pro, a spray-on coating that makes surfaces less slippery. To keep up with the anticipated production needs, Dynamix plans to build a new manufacturing plant in Surat. This plant will focus mainly on Traction-Pro, while the main plant in Delhi will continue producing the bulk of Dynamix’s existing product line. Construction is set to begin next month, and the opening of the plant will result in the hiring of more than three hundred additional employees, a welcome boost to the local economy. Operations will be overseen initially by Omar Khan, who was promoted to facility management director two years ago after he spent four years as a factory foreman at the Delhi plant. Should Traction-Pro have the enthusiastic reception anticipated by market experts, Dynamix will have sufficient capital to begin competing with industry giants such as Harlan Industrial and Pierce International.

Greetings, everyone!
On behalf of the management team at Dynamix Chemicals, I would like to extend an invitation to a special banquet on April 25. This event is being held to thank you for the dedication and hard work you contributed to the development of Traction-Pro. Without your cooperation and innovation, we would not have been able to move forward. We believe that Traction-Pro will be a game-changer for Dynamix Chemicals, allowing us to establish our brand as a leader in the industry.
The banquet will be held at the headquarters building in Mumbai, and you are welcome to bring your family members. CEO Stuart Baldwin will be giving a brief speech on the company’s mission for the next year, and he’ll also talk about his visit to the groundbreaking ceremony for our new construction plant, which will take place on April 19.

The Portland Gazette The Boniface Experience Tour Announcement Delights Fans
By Jennifer Tully
November 24——of The Boniface Experience were left crushed five years ago when the band took a break from the music industry due to what was termed “a conflict between band members.” Last night, the same fans were celebrating following a press conference hosted by UNG Productions, in which the band announced that it would be re-forming to produce a new album. It will also embark on a European tour early next year. Lead guitarist Peter Turquoise also confirmed that “all problems within the band have been resolved.” It is rumored that the source of the conflict was a disagreement over the future direction of the band between Turquoise and drummer Andre Symonds. But with Symonds having left the music industry three months ago to pursue an acting career, the remaining members now feel that they are in a position to work together once again. Turquoise went on to say that a new member will join the group. Ryan Nelsen is to assume Symond’s role as drummer.
The Boniface Experience is a five-piece rock and roll band that originally formed in 2001 in Austin, Texas. These artists have come a long way since playing in small venues to pay off their college debts. After being recommended by talent scout Peter Wisdon and signing to the record label Lilypad. Records, they went on to enjoy huge success both at home and abroad, racking up five number one albums in the U.S. and three in the U.K. Fans are now hoping that the band can enjoy similar success following its return to the music scene. As a long-time fan myself, I am particularly looking forward to seeing these artists in action on January 23.
For ticketing information for the forthcoming tour, fans can visit www.ungproductions.org.refer to the following advertisement, e-mail and form.

However, I’m on a tight budget, so I don’t want to pay any more than $_7,000 for a used vehicle. According to an advertisement I saw recently, your company has at least one vehicle that might be suitable. I’d like to schedule a time for me to meet with you. Then you can tell me more about it.
Thank you,

Dear Ms. Weld,
I am contacting you on behalf of PowerQ Electronics. I’ve been reading your blog, and your product reviews are an excellent source of reliable information for customers. I was wondering if you would be willing to write a review for one of our products, the PowerQ Wireless Router.
This router features a new design. There are now four different Ethernet ports that enable you to connect multiple wired devices like desktop computers. Also included is a USB port to plug in a printer that can be shared across the wireless network. We’d like more customers to know about this product, and we’d specifically like you to inform them that the PowerQ Wireless Router also comes with removable antennas. If you need to extend your wireless range, you can purchase and attach higher-performing antennas in their place.
If you are willing to write this review for us, please give me your mailing address, and I will send you the product to try.
Thank you for your assistance,
Gregg Routier,

Subject: Inaccurate product review
Dear Ms. Weld,
I am an avid reader of your Web site, and usually I trust your assessment of the quality of products. However, I was very disappointed with your most recent review about the PowerQ Wireless Router.
The instructions included with the router do not include a few necessary steps at the beginning. An electronic expert would know what to do, but the average consumer might not, and it could affect whether or not they set up their router properly. Therefore, customers are being misled with the “very good” rating. I think the product should have been rated lower in this area.
I don’t expect you to change your review entirely, but I suggest that you modify it by inserting a few sentences explaining about the instructions. This way, consumers will be warned in advance.
Thank you,
Jason Martinelli- refer to the following job posting, e-mail and information.
