To the manager of Taco Tacontento

I am writing to bring to your attention a serious issue I had in your establishment last week. I
ordered a vegetarian bean burrito, and halfway through my meal, I bit into what turned out to be a chicken
bone.

I am a vegetarian, and the presence of bone in my burrito was jarring. I showed the bone to the
staff, who offered to make me a new burrito with the same beans the bone presumably came from. I did not
want to risk eating any meat of finding another bone, so I asked for a taco salad instead.

I am a regular customer at your restaurant, and I have never had any problems with your food in the
past. While I am relatively certain this was a fluke, I am still concerned about how the bone got into the
beans. I would like to know how this might have happened.

I am also concerned with the ack of understanding I received from the staff member who helped
me. I dont know if she was working alone of merely misunderstood my request, but she refused to let me
speak to her supervisor while I was in the restaurant. I felt she acted very unprofessionally.

I hope to hear back from you about this incident. I can be reached by phone at (555)867-5309 at any
time or by email at mhoss@mailclient.com.

One day, when Sangkuriang was hunting, he accidentally killed his beautiful black dog Si
Tumang. This Dog is actually Sangkuriang's father who had been condemned to live the
life of a dog by his GURU. However, Sangkuriang never knew it.

Sangkuriang had been separated from his mother since childhood. On his way home, he
stopped at a small village and fell in love with a beautiful girl. He didn't realized that the
village was his homeland nor that the beautiful girl was his own sacred mother who
remained young and pretty.

Their love grew naturally and one day, when they were discussing their wedding plans,
Dayang Sumbi suddenly realized that the profile of Sangkuriang's head matched that of
her son's who had left twenty years earlier. How could she marry her own son? But she
did not wish to dissapoint him. So she agreed to marry Sangkuriang only on the condition
that he would provide her with a lake and a boat with which they could sail on their
wedding day the next day at dawn.

Sangkuriang accepted this condition. He dammed up the Citarum river to make a lake.
Dayang Sumbi realized that Sangkuriang would fulfil the condition she had set. With a
wave of her supranatural shawl, she lit up the eastern horizon with flashes of light.
Deceived by false dawn, the cock crowed and farmers rose for the new day.

Sangkuriang realized that he failed to finish the boat. With all his anger, he kicked the
unfinished boat upside - down. The boat is now known as the mount TANGKUBAN
PARAHU. In Sundanese TANGKUBAN means upturned or upside down, and PARAHU
means boat. With the dam torn asunder, the water drained off the lake and made the lake
wide plain. It is now called Bandung from the word BENDUNG which meand dam.

Nowadays, many people have realized that agriculture is much more important than other
supporting tools in economic development. In Indonesia, agriculture should be the priority of
development because of some good reasons.

First of all, the agricultures contribution in the beginning of the development of the
country was the highest of all sectors. At present, almost half of the total Indonesian labors
are working in aagriculture sectors, but the contribution of agriculture sector does not reach
30 percent.

Second, agriculture sector is expected to fulfill the need of food in the country. As the
number of population increases in an alarming rate each year, food supply must also increase
but agricultural production percapita never increases more than one precent each year, and in
some extreme cases, it is even stangnant.

Last but not least, without agricultural development, the growth of industrial sector
will be hampered because the growth that coes from industry will bring a wider gap into the
internal economy in that country. In turn, this gap will create serious poverty problem, wider
inequality of income distribution, and increase unemployment.

agriculture as the priority of national development.

Cristiano Ronaldo was born on February 5, 1985, in Funchal, Madeira, Portugal.
Manchester United paid 12 million to sign him in 2003 - a record fee for a player of his age. In
the 2004 FA Cup Final, he scored Manchester's first three goals and helped them capture the
championship. In 2008, he set a franchise record for goals scored. In 2009, Real Madrid paid a
record $131 million for his service.
It was through his dad's work as an equipment manager at a boy's club that Ronaldo was
first introduced to the game of soccer. By the time he was 10 years old, he was already
recognized as a phenomenon - a kid who ate, slept and drank the game. "All he wanted to do as
a boy was playing football," his godfather, Fernao Sousa, recalled for British reporters, adding,
"He loved the game so much that he'd miss meals or escape out his bedroom window with a ball
when he was supposed to be doing his homework."
By his early teens, Ronaldo's talent and legend had grown considerably. After a stint with
Nacional da liha da Madeira, he signed with Sporting Portugal in 2001. That same year, at the
tender age of 16, Ronaldo turned heads with a impressing performance against Manchester
United, wowing even his opponents with his footwork and deft skill. He made such an
impression that a number of United players asked their manager to try and sign the young
player. It wasn't long before the club paid Ronaldo's team more than 12 million for his services
- a record fee for a player of his age.
