This is where the fruit is tested for juice content, weight and maturity. Next, let's take a look at the juice extraction process. Once the pulpy juice is extracted, it goes through this finisher screen where the peel pulp and seeds are extracted, and then it is shipped to a packing plant in preparation for your consumption. Now, why don't we go outside where you can all sample a glass of our delicious juice?

Hello everyone, and thanks for coming on such short notice. I called this meeting today to bring you some good news. I would like to announce the incorporation of our new customer incentive program. Beginning June 1st, a record of customer accounts with our store will be maintained on a cumulative basis for a period of one year. Once their purchases have reached &500, they will be automatically entitled to a 5% discount on any order placed, including orders for sale items. When their orders have reached the &1000 mark, their discount will increase to 10%. A $1500 accumulation of orders will entitle them to a 15% discount, and once they have reached $2000 they will receive 20% off all merchandise orders. I haven't thought of a great logo for it yet, but I think you will agree that no matter what we call it, it's a super idea!

Next time you receive your electricity bill, take a moment to really examine it. Did you know that electric heating is the most expensive way to keep your family warm in the winter months? The initial cost of a gas furnace may seem like a lot of money, but with the savings from your monthly costs. This is just a fraction of the money you will save if you stay in your houses for ten years. Thompson Gas offers many billing options, including equal payment billing. Pay the same rate in the summer as you do in the winter and avoid those giant bills come winter.

This meeting is being held for the purposes of obtaining public opinion on the Highway Construction Project. As Chairman of the meeting it will be my job to ensure that the comments at this hearing are focused on this application and that we don't stray to other issues. Everyone here should feel free to speak and everyone who wishes to speak will be provided an opportunity. We will start with a brief presentation by staff and then we will invite comments from the floor. There are quite a few people here tonight, and in the interests of allowing everyone here an opportunity to speak, we will start by limiting the speakers to about 5 minutes each until everyone has had a chance to provide their comments.
