We’re Doing Something Right
by Ariel Garman
SUSTERN (November 8)—According to a recent study conducted by the Mid— Atlantic Hotel Association, tourism at our beaches improved significantly this past Summer, and the hotel industry showed greater profits this year than last. Hotel occupancy averaged 94 percent during the peak summer months. — [1] —.
Sustern saw the opening of the area’s largest hotel, The Glaston, last spring. The new hotel was at full capacity nearly every weekend during the summer. Weekday occupancy also exceeded expectations.
The hotel’s manager, Anika Bastien, said, “Tourists were thrilled with the away of amenities offered, including 24-hour dining options, a free shuttle to nearby beaches, and free Wi-Fi. In fact, many have already reserved rooms for next summer. — [2] —.”
Sustern has become the most popular tourist destination in the region, with about 20 percent more beachgoers than the Delmire shore, its biggest competitor. — [3] —. Experts attribute this to the growing number of outlet stores in Sustern, overall lower prices, and an abundance of new restaurants, hotels, and community events. Tourists continue to Visit the area after the prime beach months, keeping hotel rooms occupied longer. — [4] —.

Buy for Business Reviews Miniprojectors |
|
HJ6 Miniprojector by Collierpro
The H16 is a top-of-the-line miniprojector, which is no surprise to those familiar with Collierpro. As usual, the company spared no expense in making sure this projector is easy to take almost anywhere: it is lightweight and comes with its own carrying case, which includes a remote control and a tripod. Its internal lamp is much brighter than that of other projectors its size. Due to its brightness, the HJ 6 was able to project the sharpest picture of all the miniprojectors that we tested.
The major weakness of the H16 is its speakers. They are not nearly as loud as one would expect, given the superiority of all the other features. You can easily plug in different speakers. It is a miniprojector, however, and its small size means it is not the best choice for giving presentations in lecture balls or large conference rooms.
Overall, this is a fantastic projector for travelers, and we recommend it. This is a new model, though, and the sticker price is quite high. It may be best to hold off making a purchase right away. Projectopro will introduce the Pico PI7 projector next month, so the HJ6’s price may drop in order to remain competitive.

The Pocket Mini C by Excellentronics
The Pocket Mini C is a reliable projector and a good buy for those who aren’t interested in spending a lot of money. Like its competitors, it is lightweight and compact. The feature we were most impressed with is its battery: it can run for up to six hours, which is much longer than the other battery-powered projectors that we tested.
There are a few downsides, as could be expected from a budget projector. The ports are in awkward locations and the menu organization is confusing, so setting up the projector is not straightforward. The audio capabilities are also limited; when the volume is turned up, the audio can sound muffled. But overall, it’s a decent miniprojector for a reasonable price.

From: Alan Grady <agrady@st.pro.com>
Mr. Neves,
Thanks for calling to discuss your progress on the house construction. To summarize our conversation, even with the delay until September 22, the house should be ready for me to move into before my apartment lease expires on October 10. l’ve thought more about the status reports we discussed, and twice a week would be best. My understanding is that you will now document these changes to the contract so that I can sign off on them this week.
Thanks, as always, for your careful attention to this project.

More Improvements Ahead
At its meeting on Tuesday, the Eldonbury Town Council voted to explore options for additional work to be done on town facilities. According to Charles Gruber, town clerk, the renovation of the Eldonbury Community Centre came in well under budget. The council, therefore, decided to compile a list of smaller improvement projects that could be done with the leftover funds.
Some suggested projects include adding a covered entryway to the Eldonbury Public Library, improving lighting in Westfall Park, and replacing floors in the Town Hall. According to Mr. Gruber, the council will solicit ideas from members of the public. Interested parties may voice their opinions at the council’s meeting on Tuesday, 20 March, at 4:00 PM. or send an e—mail to the council office before 31 March. After the period of public comment, the planning committee will put forth a final list for the council to discuss, with a decision expected by 15 April. |

From: mccaffrey32@citymail.eo.uk
Dear Town Council Members,
I read that you are accepting suggestions for the use of the leftover money from the Community Centre renovation. Because of a previously scheduled appointment, I was not able to attend the council meeting, but I would like to express my support for the idea of expanding the lighting in the park. While the cost of that project is likely to be reasonable compared to that of the other possibilities, the improved lighting would increase the usability of Westfall Park and would benefit many people, especially in the dark winter months. A well-lit, nicely maintained park is an obvious source of civic pride, and something we could all appreciate. I hope the council will seriously consider this project.
Sincerely, Heather McCaffrey

From: sunil.pai@hgnetworks.co.uk
Dear Mr. Gruber,
I was glad to hear that the latest renovation project was completed with money to spare. Although the Community Centre does sponsor activities for citizens of all ages, it is, for the most part, visited by adolescents and parents with children. Therefore, I would like to suggest that the next project focus on a place more often used by Eldonbury’s older people.
The public library is a natural gathering place for older adults, and a new entryway would provide a dry, protected place for people to chat or wait for transportation. It would be a noticeable improvement, likely to be applauded by citizens who did not feel that they gained much from the improvements to the Community Centre. In April, when the votes are cast, please consider this suggestion to balance the interests of all members of the Eldonbury public. Thank you,
Sunil Pat

Dear Marzena,
I’m sorry to hear about your luggage. At least the airline has located your suitcase.
Since it’s impossible to determine when the rest of your luggage will be found and returned, I’ve sent you more samples by overnight shipping. That way, you will not have to go empty—handed to tomorrow’s meeting with the clients. There are five packets of each flavour as well as two small sauce jars with labels. I sent the items by BDW Shipping to your hotel. The package will be delivered by 8:30 am, so that you are sure to have the sauce samples and packaging to show when you speak at the meeting at 11.
Take care, Harry Gilbert
