       Uniqlo To Expand 
   Recycling Program
Japan’s Uniqlo casual clothing chain is to expand its recycling program to include used Uniqlo-brand clothes that will be reprocessed for industrial use or donated to charity.
The current recycling program involves used fleece jackets, which can be dropped off twice a year at the chain’s 730 domestic outlets.
Uniqlo spokeswoman Keiko Yamamoto said that useable clothes will be donated to charities while others will be reprocessed to be used as heat insulation or fuel.
The company eventually hopes to expand its recycling campaign to other countries besides Japan.

Eldorado® is pleased to announce the appointment of David Noblitt as Sales Manager
Dave Noblitt has been chosen for the Sales Manager position with Eldorado after working with the company in a sales capacity for nearly 3 years. David has been in the adult industry for many years and brings a vast amount of knowledge and experience with him. He has a strong understanding of retail, distribution, franchising, purchasing, marketing, and vendor relations. David will be assuming the duties of Connie Daeges who, after over 14 years with the company, will be greatly missed.
“I love the industry and I have the utmost respect for Eldorado. While I am going to miss the company and my associates, I have made the decision to relocate to warmer weather.” Connie Daeges stated regarding her decision to resign.
Larry Garland, Owner and CEO of Eldorado commented, “Connie has been invaluable to this organization for well over a decade and it is difficult to see her leave. I wish her the very best in all future endeavors. Moving forward, I’m really excited about Dave assuming a team leadership role in his new capacity as Sales Manager. Dave brings many years of management experience to this position. He is a pleasure to work with and we are all eager to see him grow and thrive with his new responsibilities.” 
David Noblitt explained, “I am delighted about my new position with Eldorado. After all of my adventures in the business and stops along the way, I am thrilled that this will be my last and confident it will be my greatest.” 
Eldorado is committed to providing sensational service, outstanding product selection and unsurpassed delivery to and for customers. The sales staff prides themselves on product knowledge and the ability to give valuable merchandising ideas and advice when requested. Eldorado’s warehouse and top-notch staff ensure accuracy and an unequaled turnaround time.
Best wishes to Connie in her future endeavors and congratulations to Dave Noblitt!

INSTALLING HUSBAND 
Dear Tech Support, 
Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a distinct slow down in overall system performance -- 
Particularly in the flower and jewelry applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0. 
In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many other valuable programs, such as Romance 9.5 and Personal Attention 6.5 and then installed undesirable programs such as NFL 5.0, NBA 3.0, and Golf Clubs 4.1. Conversation 8.0 no longer runs, and Housecleaning 2.6 simply crashes the system. I've tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems, but to no avail. 
What can I do? 
Signed, Desperate 
------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Desperate: 
First keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an Entertainment Package, While Husband 1.0 is an Operating System. 
Please enter the command: "http: I Thought You Loved Me.HTML" and try to download Tears 6.2 and don't forget to install the Guilt 3.0 update. If that application works as designed, Husband 1.0 should then automatically run the applications Jewelry 2.0 and Flowers 3.5. 
But remember, overuse of the above application can cause Husband 1.0 to default to Grumpy Silence 2.5, Happy Hour 7.0 or Beer 6.1. Beer 6.1 is a very bad program that will download the Snoring Loudly Beta. 
Whatever you do, DO NOT install Mother-in-law 1.0 (it runs a virus in the background that will eventually seize control of all your system resources). Also, do not attempt to reinstall the Boyfriend 5.0 program. These are unsupported applications and will crash Husband 1.0. 
In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does have limited memory and cannot learn new applications quickly. You might consider buying additional software to improve memory and performance. We recommend Food 3.0 and Hot Lingerie 7.7. 
Good Luck, Tech Support
