The company's biggest star, Suzanne Bialetti, won a record four awards at last month's Music Association Awards and has had three number-one hits this year. However, she is also estimated to be the most illegally-downloaded artist, something that Bell hopes to address with its new strategy.

Questions 81 - 85

Glenbridge Property News 

Phase 1 Of Lansdown Court Development Now Complete 

Dawson Developments announced in May that the first phase of the landmark Lansdown Court development off Picklechurch Street was complete. The completion of Phase 1 is a significant achievement for the house builder, who faced various problems with planning regulations in securing permission for the build. The development, whose total projected cost is $50 million, will feature more than 200 dwellings, including 60 affordable homes – 10 more than originally planned. Phase 1 comprises 25 homes, all of which have already been sold. 

‘Dawson has worked with our contractors and with the local authorities and community to bring Phase 1 of the build in on time,' Dawson Public Relations Manager Rachel Watson told Glenbridge Property News. ‘While local figures at first raised objections to the development, we are confident that our inclusion of affordable homes in the project will serve to allay their fears, and insure that local people are able to buy property in the area, thanks to Lansdown Court and Dawson Developments.’

Watson announced that the company will be holding a street party in the development on July 10 to welcome new owners and residents, and to thank builders and other contractors for their efforts. 

The choice of the Picklechurch Street area for the development surprised many when it was first announced. However, the recent announcement of plans for a high-speed railway with a station on Picklechurch Street, as well as the construction of Highway 145, has attracted the attention of many in the property business. Three other developers are rumored to be considering making bids to redevelop other sites in the vicinity.

Subject: Lansdown Court street party event 

Dear Jason, 

I'm writing to give you a regular weekly update on preparations for the street party event at your company's Lansdown Court development. 

We have now ordered all catering, for which you will be invoiced directly in advance of the event. Costs are well within our agreed budget. I would like to bring to your attention a matter that was raised during our event planning meeting here this morning. This relates to the weather. As you know, the current plan, as advised by your company, is to hold the event outdoors in the central courtyard area. However, we think it would be wise to make a contingency plan in case of inclement weather on the day. Perhaps a large tent would be a good idea, and we would be able to hire one within the stipulated budget. Please give me a call to advise. 

On another note, we have succeeded in generating some media attention for the event. Local radio have told us they intend to broadcast a piece live from the event, and we have been told that journalists from both local newspapers will attend. Please could you put me in touch with your Public Relations Manager so that we can make preparations for this? 

Best wishes

Subject: Political Science Conference 

Dear Prof. Montgomery, 
I am Commissioning Editor for Health and Social Sciences at Gainsborough Books in New Hampshire. I am currently seeking authors for a series of new titles in the fields of economics and political science. I am therefore very interested in attending your conference in London on June 8.

I note from your tentative schedule that many of the speakers whose talks I wish to attend are presenting on Friday. Due to other work commitments, I am unfortunately not able to attend the conference until Saturday. I will be traveling back from a work trip to Tokyo on Friday. A co-worker of mine told me that, when faced with a similar situation in the past, she was able to view the conference presentations online. I wonder if you have similar plans this year to put the presentations on your Web site. I'd be grateful if you could let me know. I am most interested in viewing the following talks: 

Prof. John Atkins: European economic development - leaders and laggards
Dr. Kevin Wright: The new political economy of international relations 
Prof. Rosa Dominguez: Social Welfare in the post-crisis world 
Prof. Duncan Swann: Regional development theory - a reflection 
Thank you very much for any advice on this.
