unlikeyou I agree with tudors. I took a French oral communication class in college for the same reasons. In that class, we focused on watching movies, listening to news, and discussing these in class with more vocabulary from the book. My suggestion for you would be...

unlikeyou I was an easy target for bullies oftentimes, as well, in my younger years. I had a different sort of approach to warding them off, though. I kept my finger nails slightly pointy. I did not engage in fights, but if one were to grab me for some reason, I'd grab...

you only had $50.00, and your electric was going to be shut off if you did not pay the $49.95 bill. Your car insurance was going to be cancelled if you did not pay the premium of $48.99. You ran out of food staples, milk, bread,...

Here is a magic with maths. Do this 1.3837*your age*0.73 . Just try and you will get an interesting result. Post your comments or some mathmagic like this.

unlikeyou There is a flaw in this. It only works properly up to 99! If you plugged in 101 for the age, you'd get 102.020201 (0.000001 off of the sequence and the whole number is wrong!). Haha!

I read this somewhere I don't remember, was some magazine, not too sure. I remember the question distinctly but kinda forgot the answer. I mean I tried to memorize the digits but lost it. The Question was: There is this weight...

unlikeyou Ok, I quickly ran through the numbers as I said I would a few minutes ago, and the 4 numbers can be combined to form any number between 1 and 40 if subtraction is allowed (i.e. placing the subtracted weights on the other side of the scale). If we are just...

unlikeyou Correct me if I'm wrong, but the numbers would be 1, 3, 9,and 27. 1 = 1 (obviously), 3-1=2, 3=3, 3+1=4, 9-3-1=5, 9-3=6, 9+1-3=7, etc. I haven't made it up through 40 quite yet, but I'll let you know when I do ;)!
