Why Rosetta Stone’s Language Learning Program is a Waste of Time?

Rosetta Stone’s sole basis lies on the claim that adults can learn any language easily and quickly just like children but this is a wrong notion. In reality, children take much longer time to learn their first language even when they are with their parents. Just copying the way children learn means you are wasting a lot of time. And if it is said that program of Rosetta Stone works well with the children, this is also not possible, as its way of using the pictures and getting the same matched with the foreign words especially makes it very easy for children to remember the picture and have the correct answer.

Rosetta Stone does the marketing of their program as “Interactive Language Immersion” but it is just a verbal talk, it is not possible to sell language immersion in a box. It is very easy to cheat and at the same time have the correct answer. The same statements on the website Language101.com against Rosetta Stone raise the brows, and make us think if Rosetta Stone is a total failure. But it is said that there are always two sides of a coin. It is claimed Rosetta Stone has its own value with many people getting advantage of it. But if we compare it to Language101.com, it lacks comprehensibility and has lots of drawbacks. These words are according to Language101.com.

However language is for everyone who ought to supplement their foreign languages, and even families who are making plans for vacation or entrepreneurs who want to spread their business across. Through their language program it will become very easy for you to adopt new language and you will be simply surprised to see your progress. Both these software are good at their own ends however it only depends upon the comprehensibility and your capability to learn a language.

Paul founded Paul’s TV (and appliance at the time) over 46 years ago with a $1,000 loan from a relative. Working out of one small store in La Habra, CA, Paul’s TV changed forever in 1978 with the introduction of the Big Screen TV. And now since we only specialize in televisions, we truly are the “King of Big Screen”.

1. How can I speed up my time spent at Joe’s Smog Check & Test Only Station?

  • Please provide the technician with your DMV Renewal Notice and California Driver’s License prior to beginning the inspection.

2. What if I don’t have my Renewal Notice?

  • Don’t worry we can still look up the information using your Vehicle’s VIN #.

3. What if I don’t have a California Driver’s License?

  • Don’t worry we can input your information into our system manually.

The Number 1 REASON for SMOG CHECK Failures is due To:

Don’t go for a state emissions test. In a late-model car, an illuminated “check engine” light probably is a sure sign your car will fail the test. In California, it’s an automatic failure, even if the problem was nothing more than a loose gas cap. By the way, don’t bother trying to fool the inspection station by disconnecting the battery or using any other method to erase the trouble code and turn off the “check engine” light. Your vehicle’s computer will let the inspection station know that its codes have been erased, and the vehicle will fail the state’s emission inspection test. You must perform a “drive cycle” after the repairs are performed before going back to the inspection station.

A Drive Cycle is a special test drive that duplicates a person starting their car and making a short freeway trip, as if they were driving to work. While this special test drive or ‘Drive Cycle’ is occurring, the Engine Computer runs little tests or Readiness Monitors that check to see if the Emissions System is working properly.

We ARE California’s leading smog check station in North Hollywood, Los Angeles, Ca near: Los Angeles, Burbank, Studio City, Valley Village, Sun Valley, Van Nuys, Sherman Oaks, Encino, Universal City, Glendale, Pasadena, Sunland, Panorama City, Reseda, Northridge, Tarzana, Mission Hills, Granada Hills, San Fernando, Los Angeles, Santa Monica, West Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Culver City, Hollywood, and San Fernando Valley.

Spotify No Longer Invite-Only, Six Months of Premium Service Free

Spotify Signups No Longer Invite-Only, Get Six Months of Premium Service for Free

Popular music streaming service Spotify has seemingly gone out of beta for the US as they are now allowing users to sign up to the service without needing an invite. The small catch? You’ll have to sign up through Facebook (which is newly-redesigned, if you haven’t heard).

Users will also be able to get six months of premium service for free, which means Android users can listen to music on their phone without having to pay for the time being. These changes are for all of Spotify’s current customers, US, UK or otherwise. Go ahead and get started at their site. [Lifehacker]
