Questions 149-150 refer to the following e-mail. To: All Residents From: Dan Madsen Date: 20 September Subject: Georgetown Marathon To all Thompson Towers residents: The 25th annual Georgetown Marathon will be held next Saturday. This year, for the first time, the race will turn off of River Street and proceed onto Elmont Avenue. So on Saturday, there will be nearly 5,000 registered contestants running along the stretch of road that provides the only access to our Thompson Towers parking garage entrance. Unsurprisingly, Elmont Avenue will be closed to all vehicle traffic between 7:00 A.M. and 10:45 A.M. This means that residents’ cars will not be able to enter or exit our parking garage during this event. If you know that you will need to use your car during this period, we recommend that you make arrangements ahead of time for either leaving early or parking elsewhere. For more information about the race, including maps, registration guidelines, and alternative parking locations, please go to www.georgetownmarathon.co.uk. Sincerely yours, Dan Madsen Property Manager, Thompson Towers |

Questions 151-152 refer to the following page from a handbook. One reason that corrugated fiberboard has become such a popular material for shipping fresh vegetables and fruits is the ease of labeling the containers. Information such as the brand, size, and grade of the produce can be printed directly on the box after it has been formed. Although this method, known as “postprinting” is the most economical way of labeling fiberboard containers, it is limited to only one or two colors. Full-color graphics can be obtained by printing the information on the box before it has been formed. This method, known as “preprinting,” costs about 15 percent more, but many supermarket managers prefer it because customers are attracted to the colorful displays, which leads to increased sales. |

I am happy to report that currently our sales volume is up 20% from last year. This is due in part to the fact that we have been very successful in expanding our international reach. — [2] —. In Brazil, sales increased 57%, which can be attributed to the Rio de Janeiro Fashion Show where our evening wear was featured. A similar trend emerged in Russia, where sales were up by 32%. — [3] —. There we anticipate sustained growth for the rest of the year, especially in our winter apparel line. We also saw sales growth in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), but growth was a modest 10% due to fierce competition. That said, in this market, sign-ups for our credit card were strong. Finally, in Korea, where we have had our most successful international market launch thus far, favorable news articles about our products drove very strong sales. — [4] —. Thus, overall, it’s been an excellent year so far. I am confident that our new program, which offers discounts to customers who invite others to shop with us, will begin to boost sales growth at all locations.

Questions 186-190 refer to the following Web page, survey response, and memo. http://www.nozawamotors.ca/newsroom About Nozawa | Newsroom | Forums | Driver Stories The new Nozawa 10 is finally here! We have made our dashboard navigation system fully voice enabled. With our Nozawa Navigation Interface (NNI), drivers can stay focused on the road. We have also added cupholders between the front seats, enhanced the back-seat speakers, and expanded the cargo area by 29 liters. Check out our new model at your Nozawa Motors dealer, and let us know what you think! | Do you have any comments, questions, or concerns? I've been a Nozawa customer for more than a decade, and I recently got a new Nozawa 10. Overall, I am happy with my purchase, but I am not pleased with the new position of the cupholders. Some air vents could have been placed there instead, and it would have made the heating and cooling system more efficient. Like other drivers, I too have had some problems with the NNI system. I do, however, really like being able to fit more in the trunk, and this model's acceleration power seems to have improved compared with previous models. If you would like to receive a personal reply to your survey response, please enter your contact information. Name: Michelle Herrera | E-mail address: mherrera@notezip.com | Memo From: Tabitha Marks To: Nozawa Service Center Managers Subject: New release We received negative customer feedback about the new Nozawa 10 model’s NNI system.

Whether you are a landscape professional, a backyard gardener, or a houseplant enthusiast, we have just about everything you need! Some seeds, fertilizer, and equipment can be ordered online, but please come visit our nursery in person for a much larger selection. Our sizable facility is divided into four distinct sections as follows: • North Gate - indoor houseplants, tropical plants, exotics • South Gate - plants and landscaping products sold in bulk quantities at wholesale prices • East Gate - local landscape plants that grow well in our area and require little maintenance • West Gate - herbs, vegetable plants, fruit and nut trees, and other edibles | Attention Pink Begonia Farms Customers! We are changing to new ownership on April 1.

Also, we would kindly request that if you use our baskets or wagons to move your purchased items to your car, please do not leave them in the middle of the parking area. Thanks! | http://www.retaileropinion.com/ reviews/pinkbegoniafarms I had a wonderful experience shopping at Pink Begonia Farms. Recently I was preparing a client’s property for sale, and I needed extensive landscaping work to be done. The front entryway needed extra color and greenery before I could show the house to potential buyers. Knowing nothing about plants, I asked the store staff to help me pick out an assortment of local favorites that would require very little manual watering or care. When finished, the house looked so much more inviting. Thanks Pink Begonia Farms for your excellent service! — Daphne Weigand April 15 |
