Clara: Paula, Paula! Look at this! I don't believe it!
Paula: Well, tell me! What don't you believe?
Clara: I passed all of my exams.
Paula: Hey! Well done! That's great news. What grades did you get?
Clara: Four As, two Bs and a C
Paula: No! Really? That's incredible! How on earth did you do that?
Clara: I dunno. I must be a genius.
Paula: So are you going to celebrate?
Clara: Yes. I can't wait to tell Mum and Dad. I'm going to call them right now.

Paula: Excuse me.
Clara: Yes?
Paula: I'm afraid you can't park your motorcycle there.
Clara: Oh right, sorry. Where am I allowed to park?
Paula: Parking is prohibited in all of this area.
Clara: I just wanted to go into this shop for a moment.
Paula: Sorry, but you'll have to park somewhere else.
Clara: Is there anywhere near here?
Paula: Yes, you could try Walton Street, down there.
Clara: OK then. Thanks for your help

Clara: Hey look, Paula. That DJ is playing again this weekend.
Paula: Yeah? Where's he playing?
Clara: At The Warehouse on Friday
Paula: Right. I'm definitely going to that. Would you like to go with me?
Clara: I'd love to, but I'm afraid I can't. My parents wouldn't be very happy about it.
Paula: Go on! They wouldn't mind.
Clara: No, sorry. I'm supposed to be going out with them that night anyway.
Paula: That's a shame. Oh well, do you fancy going out another night?
Clara: I'll think about it, OK?

The music companies, once rich, have been brought to their knees by MP3 piracy and a younger generation who think that music should be free. While musicians have responded by returning to live performances, the music industry, desperate to find a way of making money on the internet, is placing its hopes on Spotify. For music fans, this Swedish web service offers the best of both worlds: free music that is legal. You just take a free subscription to the service, listen to (almost) any music you want, and agree to be subjected to the occasional advert in return. The music companies, who are all shareholders, get a share of the profits. There is a possible blot on the horizon, however. Despite having more than 2.5 million registered users, it appears that the company is losing money. Better enjoy it while it lasts...

CLINIC FOR INTERNET ADDICTS

FALL CITY, WASHINGTON America's first residential treatment center for internet addiction has opened its doors. For $14500, ReSTART offers a 45-day program to help patients break their obsession with cyberspace. The center uses a cold turkey approach ( no computers and mobile phones on site) and residents are taught basic human skills such as communicating with others. "It's about helping people addicted to technology get through the withdrawal and help their brains get wired back to normal" says therapist Hilarie Cash, the executive director of the center.
