Questions 149-150 refer to the following text-messages.

Helen Moon 2:20 p.m.

Sue, I was going over the checklist for the trade show. Have you had a chance to pick up those supplies yet?

Sue Sloane 2:24 p.m.

Actually, I found most of what we need in the supply room. The rest I will get on my way to the convention center tomorrow.

Helen Moon 2:25 p.m.

That's perfect. Could you see if there are any clipboards in the supply room? If not, can you also buy some on your way? We need two to hold questionnaires and two more for sign-up sheets for new customers.

Sue Sloane 2:27 p.m.

Not a problem. Anything else you need? Has anyone picked up our pamphlets from the print shop yet? I can get them if nobody has done that.

Helen Moon 2:28 p.m.

I was supposed to do it. I'd be grateful if you could do it.

Sue Sloane 2:29 p.m.

It isn't any trouble. The print shop is nearby Coulier Office Supplies, and that's where I'm getting the rest of the supplies. I'll bring them early so you can prepare to hand them out to participants as soon as the trade show opens. I'll be at the convention center for set-up by three o'clock.

Nairobi International Marathon Draws Attention

July 28—Runners participating in this year's Nairobi International Marathon had better start getting ready for some competition. Organizers announced yesterday at a press conference that 12,000 athletes have already signed up for the race, an increase of nearly 30 percent compared to last year. Chair of the organization board, Paul Oduya, says they are expecting even more registrations. "Since the race last year, we have been working very hard to promote the marathon on social media. This allowed us to reach out more to international athletes." Oduya also said that the race's growing popularity has helped give a boost to local tourism and believes that this year's event will continue that trend. New routes were also announced during the press conference. The full and half marathons will begin along the western edge of the National Park, while the shorter races will start on Outer Ring Road. All races will end at City Stadium. Officials have released details online at www.nairobirace.org.ke, including closures and detours for motorists along Langata, Mombasa, and other major roads. For those interested in joining, registration will remain open until the end of August. Visit www. nairobimarathon.org to learn more about entiy fees and other requirements.

Madison Community Leisure Center

Youth Activity Sign-Up

Summer is here, and with kids out of school, Madison Community Leisure Center will again be running our regular 10-week activity programs for children and young people. This year's activities include:

Badminton
Swimming
Basketball
Soccer
And many more!

All sports will be overseen by qualified adult instructors, and we will attempt to place participants in groups with roughly similar abilities. This will help to ensure that everyone has a fun time while learning new skills and keeping fit and healthy.

A brochure containing a full list of dates, times, and prices for individual sports can be picked up at the reception desk of our facility or can be sent by post on request. Registration is open for one week from September 15. To sign up for an activity, please visit www.mclc.com and follow the online instructions.

Seats on the programs are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis. We aim to accommodate as many people as we can, but this is not always possible due to availability of staff and other factors outside of our control. However, places sometimes become vacant due to schedule changes or dropouts. We will make these places available 14 days after registration closes, so please ask a member of staff at that time about what is available.

Questions 161-164 refer to the following online chat discussion.

Pat Fiorentino	3: 10	I am guessing most of you read the article in yesterday's newspaper about the city's growing trash problem. Mayor Watkins wants the city to address the issue right away, and he wants us to put together a list of recommendations to present at the next council meeting. Are there any initial thoughts?
Vickie Hill	3:11	I think a media campaign would be helpful. We can focus on the concepts of reducing, reusing, and recycling.
Lloyd Medrano	3:12	Sounds great. I couldn't agree more. But I also think we need to provide more containers to dispose of trash, especially in public areas and parks. The sanitation department has complained about a shortage.
Marcella Sanders	3:13	They also say they're understaffed. We could hire more employees, but the difficult part is figuring out how to pay for everything
Dennis Kang	3:15	As long as you can come up with a solid plan of action, I can figure out how to supply the funding.
Pat Fiorentino	3:15	Thanks, Dennis. That will be a great help. OK, so I'd like us to meet tomorrow afternoon at 2:30 p.m. in conference room 3. We will have a brainstorming session, so write out your ideas and recommendations. Will that be a problem for anyone?
Lloyd Medrano	3:16	That works for me. I have a meeting at 4 p.m., though. Will we be done by then?
Dennis Kang	3:16	I'll be free. Maybe we should get the head of the sanitation department to come as well.
Marcella Sanders	3:17	I have the day off tomorrow, but I'll send some ideas to you by e-mail before I leave today.
Pat Fiorentino	3:17	We should be, Lloyd. Yes, Dennis, that's an excellent suggestion, so I'll give Edith Holmes a call right now. Thanks, Marcella.

Lester Beebe Hits Stage in South Bend
By Adam Brown

A musical version of Michelle Gable's novel The Triumph ofLester Beebe is set to premiere next month on May 22. -—^ [1] —. Set in South Bend, the show is the stoiy of a teenage boy who is the son of an automobile factory worker in the 1960s. The book became a favorite of young adult readers when it was first printed in 1968. — [2] —.

Producers Todd Carlisle and Emma Wright were not even born when the book was first released but say they identified with Lester Beebe's adolescent struggles when first reading the stoiy. "Lester Beebe isn'tjust a teenager from South Bend," says Carlisle, "he could be a young person from anywhere." In addition to being the show's producers, Carlisle and Wright manage the Eden Playhouse in South Bend. — [3] —. According to Wright, the area is not well-known for musical productions, but she hopes The Triumph ofLester Beebe will change that. "Todd and I are also counting on local interest to help in building an audience for the show," she said.

Playing the role of Beebe is actor Hemy Thomas. Veteran performer Neil Chandler plays his father, while the roles of Beebe's sisters, Mandy and Corinne, will be realized by Stephanie O'Connor and Audrey Blanco. Following the run in South Bend, Carlisle and Wright will take the show to New York in August for its Broadway debut. — [4] —. Tickets for the South Bend show are on sale now through the Eden Playhouse at 555-0493.

January 27

Renaldo Moreno
Rome Kingstonian Hotel
Viale dei Promontori 659
00135 Rome (RM)
Italy

Dear Mr. Moreno,

I am writing to you to inquire about using your hotel for Burke Capital's annual executive retreat in May. I was recently appointed to my position, and my predecessor told me that your hotel had been used three years ago for the same event. She mentioned how impressed she was with your level of service. We will be bringing with us 12 executives from the board of directors, 15 team managers from across the company, and eight members of staff from the administration, event organization, accounting, and office management teams. We will need suites for the executives, single rooms for the managers, and the other members of staff will be asked to share double rooms.

During the daytime, we will need to have access to one large conference room which can accommodate all the attendees. We will also require three smaller rooms to be used for side meetings. Ideally, all of these rooms will be equipped with projectors and Internet access.

We would also like to ask you to provide catering for the event, including breakfast, a light lunch, and an evening meal throughout the time we spend at the hotel. We will be arriving around lunchtime on May 8 and leaving after dinner on May 10.

Please let me know if such an event will be possible on the dates requested, by e-mailing me at [email protected]. I look forward to your response

Yours truly,
Charlotte Hoffman
Assistant to the executive director, Burke Capital

To: Charlotte Hoffman <[email protected]>
From: Renaldo Moreno <r.moreno@romel<ingstonian.it>
Subject: Event booking
Date: February 1

Dear Ms. Hoffman,

Thank you for your letter dated January 27, which we received this morning. I do indeed remember the last time Burke Capital held its retreat at the Kingstonian, and you are extremely welcome to return.

However, some small alterations to your original plan may be needed due to existing bookings from other customers. While we have enough executive suites remaining to meet your needs, we are short on some of the other rooms you need for those dates. Would it be possible for four more people to share double rooms?

We are also afraid to say that our main conference room has been booked for another event during this time. Nevertheless, we have an agreement with a venue which is only a 10-minute walk from the hotel. They have confirmed to me that they would be able to accommodate you, and our catering service would be happy to bring lunch over to the conference center each day to minimize the need to go back and forth.

With these changes in mind, please let me know if you would still like to proceed, and I will make the booking immediately.

Sincerely,
Renaldo Moreno

TrueBlue Mart Offers Rides to Local Customers

Customers of Kenneth County's most popular big-box store, TrueBlue Mart, will no longer have to worry about how they'll get their shopping done thanks to a new shuttle service. Concerned that a lack of affordable transit services has prevented certain segments of the population from shopping at TrueBlue Mart, store management felt it was appropriate to provide a free shuttle that will make stops at various locations throughout the community. The minibus will leave from Edgewood Avenue Apartments at 8:30 a.m. from Monday to Friday, making four trips a day. On Saturdays, the minibus makes just three trips, leaving from the same location at 10:00 a.m. and skipping over the second stop. The shuttle will not operate on Sundays. Routes and schedules were determined using client feedback and are posted on the store's Web site at www.truebluemart.com.

Shuttle Bus Experience

Thank you for starting the shuttle service program. I am able to run my errands more often now. However, I was wondering if you'd consider sticking to the same pickup locations daily. I live at the Helmhurst Retirement Community, which is close to the second stop, Glengarry University. On weekends, however, I'm forced to walk a little further to the third one. The walk is fine for me, but there are several other residents at Helmhurst who find it difficult because of mobility issues. At other times, the weather presents a hindrance.

I would also suggest that the minibus run more frequently than every two hours. Generally, I don't need more than two hours to perform my errands, so I often find myself sitting around waiting for the bus. If you take into account the travel time, that is nearly three hours out of a person's day just to shop at one store.
