Learning to Speak the English Language

When you speak in your native language, you don’t have to think about the grammar or the words you use. Correct sentences seem to just come to you. Your brain uses sentences you’ve already seen or heard. If you want to learn to speak the English language fluently, you have to learn it the way you learned your native language, by reading and listening.

Reading and listening to the English language will help you develop English language intuition. Learning the English language is all about putting lots of proper sentences in your head. Your brain can then imitate them and produce similar English language sentences to express the meaning you want. When you read and listen to the English language a lot, paying close attention to useful English vocabulary, you will soon start to use new English language words and phrases in your speaking and writing. Not only that, but you will develop English language intuition. You will start to feel what sounds good and what sounds incorrect in the English language, just as you do in your native language.

To get a good feeling for the use of articles in the English language you need to read lots of sentences and analyze them closely. It seems like it would be easier to read a unit on English language articles in a grammar book, but it takes lots of time to build a sentence when you have to think of all of the English language grammar rules. When you talk to someone, you don’t have time to do that. The input-based approach may seem to be more demanding, but it’s the only way to achieve fluency.

If you have ever attended English language classes, you have probably been asked to read a text and then complete a task connected with it. Most teachers encourage students to read very quickly, just to get the main points out of the English language text. You might think that this way you will improve your English, but it’s the other way around. Reading in such a way isn’t very useful; it could even slow down your progress!

When you read in your native language, you read for content. Your brain focuses on key words that convey the meaning of the text. This way you are able to read faster. But this is the wrong thing to do when reading in the English language. You want to concentrate on the grammar, too. You should analyze the sentences closely. When reading content in the English language, try to notice interesting things in every sentence you read. It could be a useful phrase or an expression that you could have written wrongly. In this way you can learn how to use the English language more correctly, faster.

Personal Development and Dating: Introduction to Masculinity

Are you man enough? Most men are boys in men’s bodies. Harsh, but true, especially in this day and age. If you’re a man, your personal development path will require you to man up sooner or later. If you’re a woman, read on – it’ll help you identify the character of the man you are with or will next meet.

There is more to being a man then most people know. Being a man is hard work sometimes. I once read that a man consists of both velvet and steel. You can’t have one without the other.

Most men nowadays have too much velvet, and not enough steel; that is, they are too soft without the hardness. They become wimps, who go through life governed by fear – fear of women, fear of their boss, fear of hard work, fear of growth and change.

Others have too much steel. These become the “bad boys”, the loud, overbearing types. Some might argue that this breed is better then the wimp. However, I believe that deep down inside they also revolve around insecurity and fear, although of a different type. I went through an “arsehole” phase in my life. I didn’t like it – I had simply changed what I was afraid of.

Men in relationships

Most people know the bad boys fare much better in relationships, despite (and sometimes, because of) the danger – many these bad boys are self-destructive and abusive to others, including their partners, friends and family.

This is because they display traits that are similar to those displayed by confident and sexually attractive men. I believe there is a subtle difference. A bad boy speaks loudly because his ego is afraid that no-one will notice him. “Please tell me I exist.” A confident man speaks just loud enough for the occasion.

In my experience most young women can’t tell the difference and so fall for the bad boys anyway. It’s a biological thing – just like when men go for gorgeous women despite knowing that she is a gold-digger or likely to cheat on them. I know because I’m guilty of this.

Gentlemen – A gentle Man

Back to steel and velvet. I believe most men have too much of one without the other; some don’t think it is possible to have both. Or they mistake strength and power for beating on their chest and roaring like a pirate.

Having passion, determination, and strength does not mean that you cannot be gentle, compassionate, and understanding. Being strong does not mean beating on your chest and shouting out orders. But all great men do.

This is the true meaning behind the word gentleman. A gentle man. A man who is not afraid of life nor his desires. A man who has the strength to protect his loved ones, and fight for what he believes in. Yet a man who can laugh, grieve, nurture and heal. A man who appreciates the beauty in a child’s smile, in the sunset, in a woman’s love.

This is the introduction to the masculinity section at the Urban Monk website Urban Monk. Much of the section can apply to women too, but don’t quote me on it. Or women can read this to gain insight into the “enemy”.

What’s next?

The first step is to head on down to the Urban Monk website, and find the piece on Life, passion and goals. It is one of the vital components of being a man. You’re on your way to mastery!

7 Mysterious Ways of Women And How To Understand Her

There are a lot of men who mistake some of the ways that their girlfriend or wife will conduct themselves. It’s hard to understand both sexes because they don’t think alike. Women think more with their heart and feelings, while men tend to think about logic and reality. After you read this, you will be able to better understand your mate and you will be able to have better and stronger relationship.

1) The Confusing Silence

Men assume that if women are not talking then they must be mad, however that is not always the case. The silent treatment is given a lot after arguments; however, it does not always mean that silence is a key tip that she is mad. First, sometimes women just need some time where they can just relax. After you have a hard day at work, all you want to do is read a book, watch some TV, or just sit in silence. That does not mean that she is mad. It may mean things like she is tired, she wants to relax, she wants to be by herself, but it is not always about the people around her.

2) Obsessive cleaning

You will notice that your girlfriend or wife is cleaning and really scrubbing the dishes, however, it may seem like she is mad or frustrated. Some women do obsessively clean when they are frustrated, but there are many women who just like to be clean. Cleaning to women has nothing to do with relationships or how they see you. Not all women feel the need to clean up because their mate won’t or that their mate is messy. Sometimes a woman will just get in the mood to clean.

3) Fighting

Have you ever come home with a seemingly happy day and just end up getting yelled at by your lady. You may think that she is really unhappy with you, but the truth is that you’re not the problem. You will find that things in her day will make her feel awful and with you seeming happy would be when the saying “misery loves company” comes into play. The next time she jumps you before you even kick off your shoes, maybe you should take a moment to ask her what it really is about.

4) Her confusing behavior of crying

Women have so much emotion in them; they have to cry every now and then and do not take it personally. Something that you do or do not do may set them off, but it is usually not about you. It can be a lot things all balled up inside her. You may come home to your wife or girlfriend sitting in the dark crying, however, it is not always about anything. Women just need to cry. Some have a schedule where they watch sad movies and they have a good cry. It is usually nothing personal; just ask her if there is anything you can do or not do and make her a cup of tea.

5) Nagging

You may think that your woman is always on your case all day long, however, there is something underneath the obvious that is bothering her. The first thing that you are going to want to ask her is what this fit is really about. Ask her about her day, ask her about her mother, ask her about anything that might have set her of to release some anguish on you. Nagging is more from frustrations and if you ask her what it is that she would like you do, like chores (which both partners should have); you’ll be able to reduce the nagging.

The Wind Farm Debate

According to the Energy Saving Trust, the UK has 40% of Europe’s total wind energy. But it’s still largely untapped and only 0.5% the UKs electricity requirements are currently generated by wind power.

Wind power is proportional to the cube of the wind’s speed, so relatively minor increases in speed result in large changes in potential output. Individual turbines vary in size and power output from a few hundred watts to two or three megawatts (as a guide, a typical domestic system would be 2.5 – 6 kilowatts, depending on the location and size of the home).

Uses range from very small turbines supplying energy for battery charging systems (e.g. on boats or in homes), to turbines grouped on wind farms supplying electricity to the grid.

In Saddleworth, near Greater Manchester, an eco-war about wind turbines is waging. United Utilities want to build seven 350 foot wind turbines.

These will generate enough power to supply the average electricity needs of 8,500 homes in the local area. This wind farm is not situated out to sea but in the picturesque hills of the Saddleworth Moors and would be visible for miles around. Government targets state that 10% of the UK’s energy should be supplied by renewable resources by 2010 and developments like the Saddleworth Moor turbines would contribute towards that total. Leading environmentalists from across the country have previously convened in Saddleworth for the first ever National Forum opposing the creation of wind farms on rural beauty spots.

World renowned TV botanist, Professor David Bellamy, joined former Downing Street press secretary, Sir Bernard Ingham and hundreds of activists at the National Wind Farm Group Conference. There were a total of representatives from over 50 environmental groups from across the country attending this event. It aimed to raise awareness about the perceived dangers of wind farms and bring environmental groups closer together in their fight against the government. The Saddleworth Moors Action Group says the turbines would have a negative impact on a unique landscape. The group also insist their campaign is not prompted by “not in my backyard” sentiments, but through a genuine desire to preserve the character of the local area.

One could argue that the government is not bothered about the environment then they are continually financing the construction of coal fired power stations in the third world and building more airports and more motorways in Britain? As tensions are mounting in Iran and Nigeria leading to increased oil prices, is now not the ideal time to exploit wind power both on land and at sea via grants to companies? With labour slipping up at the local elections in 05/06 and the Conservatives pushing the eco argument, is not in Labours interest to follow the Conservatives lead and not to pay lip service to wind farms as they currently do?

OR

Will the people that have to live near wind farms and see the things every day change their minds and believe that wind farms form a concerted effort to save the environment or just another commercial money making scheme for the companies involved?

Parking at Cardiff Airport

Due to my profession as a director of a well-known supermarket chain I frequently fly out of Cardiff airport to Newcastle and Manchester but I also used the facility for short summer holidays to Malta and Amsterdam. You do not have to consider, if you want to park your vehicle here, from which terminal your flight departs as Cardiff airport only contains one terminal. As a frequent flier I’ve used nearly every available parking option at Cardiff International airport and I think I’ve become somewhat of a specialist on the subject.

First of all I would suggest always arrange your car parking in advance online. Booking through the internet is the most comfortable way and you will not need to rush getting through customs. Also a benefit is that online booking saves you a couple of pounds due to the discounted rates which are only available on the internet.

Most of the parking agencies which are available at and near Cardiff airport offer satisfactory services and are excellently secured and run by professionally staff. The same standards of security and services are offered almost everywhere you go. Mostly the parking agencies have a different location and parking prices vary. I always base my decision on where to park on how much money I want to spend and how much time I need on the day I have to travel.

If you are going to use one of Cardiff airport’s parking facilities for the first time and you haven’t figured out yet where you want to park your vehicle, the short descriptions below of some of the better car parking sites with easy check in procedures might help you making the right choice.

The Highwayman is a family-run business which was established ten years ago. They are positioned at the runway’s end. Because of the excellent security measures they hold the prestigious Police Gold Star Award. Their car park is dog patrolled 24 hours per day and supplied with CCTV. A free of charge transport service is catered for as well. Due to the company’s ten years of experience in the parking business you can be completely sure regarding the safety of your automobile during your absence.

Directly opposite the airport terminal building you can find the long duration parking facility which is operated by NCP. Some areas of the site are just a stone’s throw away from the terminal. During the busy summer months you probably have to park you’re your car at the further away areas but for your convenience during this time the company provide a transfer service which operates every five minutes with a travel time of just a few minutes. Cardiff Airparks Services is another good choice. They operate several other well-secured airport parking facilities across the United Kingdom. Their Cardiff parking site is located nearby the airport terminal. You will be transferred for free to the terminal building.

Over the past 18 months I’ve really had the opportunity to check out all the other available methods and I found out that the online booking services which are listed below are the most convenient ones. The easiest and quickest means of arranging car parking at Cardiff airport is offered by them. No fuss, all it takes is just a few clicks with your mouse.

The desire for a mate is biological and social norm or rather a necessity in today’s fast-paced, rat race type of materialistic society. Cities may be throbbing with ever-growing populace but in midst of the milieu is chaos, insecurity, and acute loneliness.

The desire to progress economically for material possessions and to climb social ladder is so intense among people that it is taking a heavy toll of ones personal, family and spiritual life.

Meeting a Girl Online

The first question you ask is ‘Why would I want to meet a girl online?’
Why try to meet girls online when you can spot a chick you like, approach her, start talking – and actually get a date? Here are some advantages of offline dating, to put it like this:
– You see the real girl right away.
– You control the situation, no connection failures etc.
– You can impress a girl with your appeal instead of typing smileys frantically.
– You can touch her, smell her, even kiss her – and get punched by her
– Even if you get her real photo, it might not give the real picture – offline dating does not have this problem.
Naturally, I’m the offline dating aficionado, but meeting a girl online does have advantages, too:
– The web is a perfect place to meet and seduce an unapproachable girl (yet you will have to reach her somehow, find out her email or a chat room).
– You don’t need to look good and come sober, clean-shaven, smelling of perfume. All you need is an ability to write.
– You can meet some girls online which are not likely to talk to guys in real life.
– Online pickup techniques basically resemble offline ones.
The primary rule says ‘be different’!
This is a nightmare for all girls. Enter a chat with a nickname suggesting you’re female, and you’ll see all men act the same. Everybody will start asking all the same questions, your age, your phone, whether you got a photo etc.
To impress a girl, you have to stand out of the crowd, be interesting, appealing, smart, attentive and positive-minded.
Don’t you ever ask for her email or photo!
Yes, I realize you don’t want to waste time on girls you won’t like when you see them. Still you can learn to understand who’s there by the way she talks. If she’s whimsical, easily insulted, sometimes not too smart, she’s probably a model-like beauty. Teenies are naïve, sometimes easily scared and silly. Smart, joyful, witty girls almost always got beautiful eyes.

If a girl starts your talk by asking about your work, it means she’s not a teenie, she also works or is temporarily unemployed, and most likely she’s over 22-24 years of age. If she asks about your studies, she can be younger.
You can use a multitude of hints to determine the age of your would-be partner.
Try to write in correct spelling. Don’t think that writing ‘u got a luvly neekneim’ will make her jump on you. She might, but you probably won’t be too happy with it.
Treat her in a respectful way. Play gentle, because you don’t know her age, her personality and her mood. You may as well receive a rude reply, and we don’t need that.
So, you are entering this chat room and soon you have a target. Don’t start by asking the person about their gender. You’ll see that very soon by the way he or she talks to you.
People usually say something like ‘hey there’, but you should be smart enough to say ‘good evening.’
Your opening phrases should be witty (no filth), intelligent, nicely written with a bunch of relevant smileys.
Talk about something abstract. The girl should enjoy your communication, not go over her troubles again. Insert questions about her, about her work, hobbies, horoscope stuff, favorite sites, etc.
Finishing your talk, if you like a girl, ask how you can reach her later. She’ll decide herself, whether it could be a phone or an email.
I think that men online often lack patience and lose promising contacts. If you get an email, it’s an open way to seduction. You can use postcards, emails, poems, links to sites, whatever.

Now let’s have a look at those dating sites.
You are running a search, of course, including only profiles with photos and from your location. Here come some profiles, and you feel like falling for some of them. And here comes the stupid part. You write an email and copy-paste it to all the girls. Nonsense!
If your message can be sent to multiple recipients, it means it’s a worthless message.
For instance:
“Hi. My name is Dan. I saw your profile at IsraLove.co.il and felt something I never did. It may be love! Write to me! Lamer@lamer.com”
What can I say? Really brief, to say the least, and she probably gets dozens of similar emails. What’s your difference? How good are your chances? You should always keep asking these questions.

Here are some dating site tips.
A nice message subject. Not ‘from your honey bunny’ or ‘my hard friend wants to meet you’. Something like ‘It might be fate’ or ‘To the prettiest blonde of the town’.
Don’t be too brief, at least 15 sentences is fine. The upper limit should be reasonable, not two megabytes of pure text, you’ll scare her.
Be original. Invent a nice beginning which explains things, but don’t be too mysterious. Note her features from the profile and mention them in your message.

For example:
Profile: Julia, 22yo, 5’7’’, blue eyes, like sea, swimming, discos, study at medical college, like Roxette and Nirvana, looking for a kind, attentive smart guy for messaging and romance.
Your message:
Subject: “To the prettiest girl of the medical college”
Hello, Julia. Sorry if I disturb you. I saw your profile on a dating site. If it wasn’t posted by you and it’s a joke, please accept my apologies. The thing is that I liked the girl in the pictures very much, I would even go far enough to call you the prettiest girl in your college. I love when a girl has blue eyes, looking like lakes where one can drown. Probably you get compliments very often and I look hackneyed. Let me explain who I am a bit.
My name is Dan. My job is database programming, and I’ll be 25 soon. I’m a bit taller than you, 5’11’’, I love dancing, discor, and Roxette.
Sometimes I think that we men never understand women completely. We have no idea what you really want and we seldom behave the way you would like us to. I know how important attention and response are. I know how important it is to take care of a woman, like a beautiful flower which withers without tenderness and consideration. Okay, don’t let me get too started If you are interested, we could exchange thoughts and ideas. I’d love to, really.
Thanks and enjoy yourself!
I think you will surely have better chances than all the other men after a message like this.
Good luck to you!

Law Of Attraction: How Limiting Beliefs Limit Your Life

Our beliefs are the foundation of who we are, what we think, what we say, how we act, and ultimately, how the world shows up for us. However, when we have limiting beliefs, we actually limit our life.

Relationships

Limiting beliefs will greatly affect your relationships. It can cause problems if you have any beliefs about what can or cannot, should or should not happen in a relationship. For example: You believe that the person you’re dating should not see an ex-girlfriend or boyfriend because it’s “bad” for the relationship. What you don’t see is that the person you’re with really cares about you. The relationship they maintain with an ex can be for multiple reasons. Are there children involved? Does your significant other pay alimony to their ex? Was the break up mutual? This doesn’t mean that they still love them, it just means that they are having a working relationship for the sake of whatever binds them together. But if your belief is that they’re ‘up to no good’, then you’ll create that for yourself and find things that make it so.

Employment

When you limit your beliefs when it comes to employment, it can be critical to whether you will keep the job or change your career several times. You may find that you are staying with a job you hate because you either think there is nothing out there for you to do or because it is the “right thing to do.” Fear is just another form of belief and can also seriously limit us in our lives. It can keep us from making career changes or from going back to school, taking new classes, etc. It can keep us from doing the things we want to do because we are “security-minded.”

Education

We all place limitations on what we think is appropriate when it comes to education. Let’s say you decided not to go to college right after school or dropped out of college. You’ve been employed with the company that you are with for 10 years. You have been thinking a lot about going back to school to get a degree, but you keep putting it off because you believe you’re “too old.” You won’t “make the grade.” You have “forgotten everything.” Well, maybe you have forgotten some things from when you were in school because you don’t use them. That is normal. It doesn’t make you unintelligent, just normal. But you beliefs keep you from going…which keeps you in the same place you’re in now.

Creativity

Everyone has heard the phrase “think outside the box.” Even Taco Bell uses it in their slogan, sort of (Think Outside the Bun). Most people are so used to routine that they don’t realize that they are limiting themselves in their lives creatively. They think that they are supposed to stay within those lines.

What if you woke up tomorrow and you didn’t get to have that cup of coffee to start your day off? Would your whole day be off? Would you be able to function normally? Physically, you probably wouldn’t, but psychologically you would because it’s outside of your normal daily routine and you most likely believe you’d be off…so you would.

Finding creativity again in your life requires you to change your routine. Do something spontaneous. Don’t follow the set pattern all the time. You will find the creativity pouring back in your life.

By changing the things you believe, you can actually change your reality. Take the time to look at your beliefs and ask yourself, “Why do I believe this?”, then ask, “Does this belief support the things I want in my life?” Most times that answer will be “no”. If it is, then you have the opportunity to change that belief to the things that support your desires, which will lead to greater joy and happiness in your life.

How to Negotiate Like A Pro In Long-term Negotiations.

Ever notice that negotiations usually go much better when there is a history of trust from previous successful negotiations? That is no accident. The good will that is built up over the years allows the other party to accept your positions at face value. However those negotiations can get flat and you might want to try something new as well. Here are some tips to build on that long term relationships during negotiations.

Look To The Past For Inspiration.
Usually I say look to the future, and that the past is called the past for a reason. That is because the usual negotiations are unsuccessful and the past may be a source of frustration and pain. However, when there is a history of successful negotiations, the negotiations themselves are a source for study. Try to analyze what has worked and what might need improvement. Even if you are pleased with the results, what could make the negotiations better? For example, you could ask questions like the following:
1. Was I prepared enough?
2. Did I give in too soon?
3. Were any mistakes made?
4. What worked and would I use that technique again?
5. What did not work and how can I improve?

Look To The Past for Pitfalls or Drawbacks

Even though successful negotiations predict further successful negotiations, negotiations with the same parties for several years do have some drawbacks or pitfalls. The negotiations can be predictable and even boring and the parties can become complacent. The parties anticipate what the other side is going to do so that there is no element of surprise. When it is time to close the deal, they are more likely just to split the difference. Negotiations repeated over the years can go flat. As they say, familiarity can breed contempt. If the parties know each other’s moves, they can predict where the negotiations are going. Sometimes the negotiators just go through the motions and don’t put much thought into the process. Each person has a role and they just go back and forth as they always have. Sometimes the expectations are fairly low and that can affect the bottom line

Try Something New
You might want to assign some different people to the negotiating team or pick a new chief negotiator to shake things up. You might want to add a new formula for the payment of fees. You might try to ask for something new this year, something you really want. You might start in a different order. Start with the important items if you have been starting with the easy items. Maybe you want to start all over again and start from scratch and build a new contract. This is fairly drastic but might be worth a try. If you are happy with last year’s contract, then you might want to think of some brand new provisions. If you don’t ask, you don’t get.

Be Prudent

Even though you may want to try something new, be prudent on how you implement it. Don’t risk everything just for the sake of trying something new. Experiment by trying one or two minor changes and see how it works. Don’t allow years of successful negotiations to be jeopardized for the sake of innovation. You will need to assess the situation to see if the tried and true is still working or whether the parties have become complacent and need some new strategies at the negotiation table.

In conclusion, a long term negotiations are usually built on mutual trust and will likely predict good future negotiations. However, it will up to you to decide whether the parties are complacent and caught up in a routine or are already at their peak performance. You may have to try something new to put some new zest in the negotiations. Or you may want to continue the techniques that have worked in the past. The point is that there should be a review to determine the strategies for future negotiations.
