Question : Alternatives for learning languages other then Rosetta Stone?
I dont want to pay £300 to learn a language. Anyone have any paid alternates? I find the free ones are absolutely useless.paid alternatives guys. I want to buy a instructional cd/program/whatever.Also I am interested in most languages but Japanese and Italian interest me the most
Answer:
Many students have self learned Spanish with Rosetta Stone, but they have mistakes that is hard to correct, because all time they were thinking in that way...I should suggest you to do online.I am not into the languages you prefer most but I do teach Spanish online, works good for the students and my prices are very affordable. http://immersionspanishschool.blogspot.com/http://www.teachstreet.com/teacher/immersion-spanish-scho ol

Question : Name that book - fantasy series, boy with red sentient stone?
I am searching for the name of a fantasy series I read in my childhood.My memories are hazy, here is what i remember:The protagonist is a young boy with a sentient red stone/jewel.He travels, sometimes involuntarily, between our world and an alternate word where magic exists.The stone is the most sought artifact in that world, so everyone is after him. The stone can be used as a weapon, but demands memories as a price.In one of the first books, the boy is captured in a swamp. He threatens to drop the stone into the swamp if he is not released, He also claims to know a way to destroy the stone by a thought. His bluff fails.One book ends with the boy giving himself up to save his friends.He is taken prisoner by a giant, but can escape by using the stone to travel back to the normal world.In a later book he looses all memories of his home world and is unable to return.Does that sound familiar to anyone?Sorry, "Trinity" by Fiona McIntosh is definitely not the right one. The content does not sound familiar at all, and the first book was published in 2001, far too late. The books must have existed in the nineties or probably eighties
Answer:
I know that "Trinity" by Fiona McIntosh features sentient stones...that was a series of three books, about a boy who had sentient stones and had to find 'the trinity' but didn't know what it was. Then he got crucified and swapped bodies with someone else to survive...ring any bells?

Question : In an alternate dimension would five Slices of Kimbo KO Fedor, Lyoto, GSP, Wanderlei, & Stone Cold?
It'd be quite funny to see that many Kimbos walking around, haha. BQ:Imagine if Kimbo Slice rang you doorbell, and then quietly disappeared? What would you do? BQ: Do you think you can finish a bottled water faster than Kimbo?
Answer:
In this alternate dimension; do the rules of physics apply? Is it a bizarro dimension where everything is reversed (if so, Kimbo would be a good fighter) and finally, do aardvarks rule the world?

Question : Was there an alternate title to the Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone movie?
I thought that the first book and movie title for the JK Rowling series was Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. However I noticed a movie poster at a local Red Robin Restaurant that looked exactly like the Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone movie poster but instead it said "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone". Was this a huge typo or had there been a change?
Answer:
It was renamed to HP & the Sorceror's Stone for American audiences. The editor felt that American's would be confused by the different usage of certain words in British English.

Question : What means a trail of leafs, one dry one fresh alternating, it ends in a spiral of flowers?
In the center of the spiral was a dead fruit and a white stone
Answer:
Times of trial and times of triumph, the cycles of life and of death, that which has passed has yet to occur, that which will be has already happened. The parts are the same, merely the players change. The beauty of nature, being able to possess the potential to be alive and dead at the same time. Is there perhaps an aspect of yourself that you are trying to ignore? For instance, perhaps you anger easily, learn how to use anger constructively, use it to spur yourself to new heights (passion). Anything can be used for either creation or destruction, it is your choice which way the leaf falls. As for the withered fruit and stone, they are merely possibilities. The fruit which should spring new life from such a beautiful start (the flower) has died. However, by its death, the fruit shall become earth, which will be used to grow new life. The stone which was born of the flame, now crumbles to a pebble. And yet it is white, the colour of possibilities, purity, it is on its way to become something new. Have hope for things are never entirely lost.Good luck!
