Re: Dress code
As a result of staff requests, the partners have decided to modify the dress code. The new code is effective immediately. From Monday through Thursday, male attorneys may wear dress pants, but neckties are still required. Female attorneys may wear formal skirts and blouses, suits, and dresses. The last Friday of each month will be a casual day, which means jeans, athletic shoes, casual shirts and blouses are acceptable. However, for court appearances, professional attire is still mandatory.
Thank you for your cooperation.
refer to the following article.
Last week, a US federal judge finally verified what the scientific and medical community has been saying for twenty years: nicotine is a drug, an extremely harmful and addictive drug. Judge William L. Osteen rules that because nicotine is a drug, cigarettes should be regulated by the Food and Drug Administration. (FDA)
This judgement delivers a legal challenge to the tobacco industry’s anti¬regularity stance and a change for the FDA to take steps to protect public health. Such steps could require tobacco companies to fully acknowledge the addictiveness of their products, and produce less lethal and addictive cigarettes. Packaged with prominent labels disclosing not just their tar and nicotine content, but all toxic ingredients.

refer to the following article.
A prominent forecaster predicts that 11 storms, including seven hurricanes, will form over the Atlantic Ocean this year. —[1]—. Professor Jullian Ross of the National Meteorological Center has been predicting the number of hurricanes during the storm season for a dozen years. His latest report is an update on an earlier forecast where he predicted a below-average season with eight storms, five of which are hurricanes. —[2]—. The average season, which lasts from June until November, usually sees 10 storms, six of which are hurricanes.
Although not always on target, the professor's predictions are more accurate than others. Last year, he predicted 18 storms with 10 hurricanes, including two major ones. —[3]—. There are in fact 18 storms, but 14 of these were hurricanes and four of them were major. —[4]—. Forty-five people lost their lives, and the damage in the southern Atlantic states was estimated in the billions of dollars.
refer to the following article.
The Internet has created a global market of people consuming music in a whole new way. — [1]—. We are now beginning to see the Internet used to also create music in a whole new way. You can plug your guitar into your computer and play, in real time, with someone from another city or country. There are about half a dozen sites where musicians can meet, compose, and play together.
Studio sessions are also possible on the Internet. —[2]—. Each person lays down an individual track to be part of a finished product. For example, a male guitarist and singer recently went on a site with his composition. The music was heard by a female vocalist who laid down a harmonizing track to be played with his. This was followed by a violinist who liked what he heard and who wanted to be part of it. A pianist also offered a track that the group decided to use. —[3]—. This band of four plans to continue to work together. Their sound has earned global attention, also through the Internet. Their music has even been played on traditional media such as radio. Members of this group were developed out of several hundred site visitors who offered tracks to the original guitarist and singer.
Musicians, who collaborate on these sites, literally have a world of opportunities to meet other musicians. —[4]—. Gone are the days when musicians find each other only by knowing some of the same people. Now musicians can easily meet thousands, if not millions, of other musicians.
This could even become the next generation of record labels.

Dear Ms. Paxton,
I spoke to your assistant on the telephone last Thursday and she suggested that I write directly to you to express my interest in an internship at your company.
I will graduate soon. I am seeking an internship in market research. I believe that my business degree and my interpersonal skills qualify me for a position in this area.
As my enclosed resume indicates, I had served as a part time assistant at Mauer Advertising for one year. My other experiences include conducting opinion polls for my university newspaper and attending an advertising class at the university. I am extremely interested in working at Advertising Research Group and would welcome to speak with you further about the internships you have available.
Sincerely yours,
Rita Warren

Dear Ms. Warren,
Thank you for your letter and resume. We are always interested in providing opportunities to recent graduates with experience and qualifications.
Unfortunately, at the present time, we have no open internships that match your specific interest. On a more positive note, however, we are looking for a trainee to help conduct market research opinion polls. It is a one-year internship that could lead to the offer of permanent employment. If this type of work interests you, I suggest you contact Juan Santos, the head of our human resources department, to discuss the responsibilities of the internship.
Yours truly,
Karen Paxton

Taylor Bay Apartments

San Francisco, CA 10009
To Walter Arnold:
I have been a tenant in your building on Waterfront Avenue for the past 4 years. I have always paid my rent on time, and have never had any issues arise with respect to the level of service offered. However, last month, my bathroom sink began leaking, and I immediately called the building manager, who told me she would contact a maintenance person.
Yet, no one has been to fix or check up on the damage. Since then I have called a plumber to look at the damage and he has given me an estimate on the repairs. I have enclosed an estimate from the plumber.
Moreover, it took 2 days for a plumber to arrive, by which time a significant amount of water had leaked onto the dining room carpet. While I did my best to dry up the water, it has left a permanent stain. I informed the building manager of the stain, and she sent a cleaner to steam clean the carpet. The stain was removed, but I arrived home today to find a bill for $75 for the cleaning services.
I have paid the bill, but would like to ask that I be refunded the full amount (or have it deducted from next month’s rent of $650.00 ).
Thank you,
Olivia Kimberly
