To learn Chinese can seem to be an insurmountable task. There are seemingly too many difficulties for soembody of English language origin to ever master this fascinating language:

• different writing with thousands of signs
• words that if they are pronounced mean something totally different
• physical distance to China (you can’t just quickly hop over to spend a weekend)

To learn Chinese well, one really would need to spend some time in China. And then where in China? There are different dialects of Chinese, with Mandarin Chinese being the main language. But then there is Cantonese Chinese, spoken in HongKong and Southern China, where there are a lot of economical activities…

One solution that will not make you perfect in either Mandarin or Cantonese, but will give you an excellent start and will immerse you into the language immediately is to listen to Pimsleur Chinese language audios. Everybody I know who used the Pimsleur method is raving about it. These audios allow you to go on a virtual trip to China, every time you listen to them.

Means, you are getting used to the different pronunciation, the ‘music’ of the Chinese language and you allow your brain to acquire the language similar to the way you first learned your own English language. This works well and is a great basis for then continuing to study either one of the two main dialects, Mandarin or Cantonese.

If you wondered about the universe and the secrets it holds, or if you simply want to understand how earth and all the stars came to be and where we’re headed, then this is a great audio book to listen to:

Stephen Hawking, author of the multi-million copy bestselling A Brief History of Time, and his daughter Lucy explain the universe to readers of all ages. The beauty of this is that it’s not some scientific lingo that only experts understand. ‘Readers of all ages’ means simply, that it’s told in a clear, understandable way.

The story line:George’s parents, who have always been wary of technology, warn him about their new neighbors: Eric is a scientist and his daughter, Annie, seems to be following in his footsteps.

Despite this warning, George befriends them and Cosmos, their super-computer, he finds himself on a wildly fun adventure, while learning about physics, time, and the universe. With Cosmos’s help, he can travel to other planets and a black hole.

But what would happen if the wrong people got their hands on this super computer Cosmos? George, Annie, and Eric aren’t about to find out, and what ensues is a funny adventure that clearly explains the mysteries of science.

An audio bible can help you with your bible studies. Find more time to listen to the bible when commuting or doing manual work.

The new NIV Dramatized audio bible is the better alternative, and a much more affordable alternative at that. The NIV bible is today’s most read, most trusted translation.

The multiple-voice dramatization brings the Bible to life with world-class narration and colorful, true-to-the-text character renderings. The fully orchestrated background with sound effects provides further enhancement. So that you immediately find what you want to listen to, the downloadable version includes a tracklist on downloadable pdf.

Whilst the physical New International Version Bible costs USD 99, you may download this NIV bible for only USD 30.76. You save and pay less than one third of the physical price.

Malcolm Gladwell is a very interesting character and a senior staff writer at The New Yorker magazine. His books are best sellers, and that with reason!

IT Conversations

Highly recommended! Here’s what the short summary about this talk says:

Are our judgments influenced by the amount of information used in arriving at them? Does more information lead to better judgments? Malcolm Gladwell takes these knotty questions head on and weaves a very coherent story around the answers he suggests.

Snap decisions are much more complex than we think and even when we believe we are talking rational, well-thought out decisions we may still be largely driven by the initial snap judgment. We are always making snap judgments, as he illustrates in areas ranging from music audition to hiring CEOs and diagnosing heart attacks, and yet we know very little of what influences them. The more we learn how to control the stimuli for these judgments, the more likely that our judgments and decisions well be correct.
