Usana News

Found this article about Usana in the news recently.
It's interesting that they seem to get more positive (or any) press than Amway and Network 21, and other MLM groups and associations.

Even though it wasnt a proper article, or even an editorial, more of a press release snippet, I found it interesting that it was published by an offshoot of one of the world's largest media companies:

Encore Youth Theatre wants to provide a fun, friendly opportunity for the youth in the area to gain experience in the theatre world, either in an acting, dancing or a technical capacity, with no previous experience necessary. If you are interested, come to a meeting at 11am, December 11, at Clayton Community Centre. For details, phone Karen on 0425 725 787.

Calendars coming
Monash Council will soon begin distribution of a new calendar outlining waste services offered to all properties in 2011. The calendars give residents a clear and easy-to-read explanation about rubbish collection days, which products can go in which bins as well as the schedule for the alternating recycling and green waste collection dates for each street in Monash. Waste collection day and the type of bin to put out (recycling and green waste) will change in the new year, so it is important residents check the calendar to ensure they don't miss their collection day once the new schedules come into effect.
