			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So in school they want us to learn a foreign language.  That&#8217;s all well and good, but since graduating college I know few that have kept up with it.  Me included.</p>
<p>I saw <a href="http://lifehacker.com/software/education/learn-a-foreign-language-with-mango-301243.php">this</a> on LifeHacker today.  Essentially it&#8217;s a fancy flash based website that will speak a language to you and teach it to you.  In browsing the site, I think that it&#8217;s got a decent method of teaching by focusing on repetition and letting you listen and process the new words/phrases.</p>
<p>A <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=free+language+tutorial">Google search</a> also shows up many other options that can help if you&#8217;re looking to improve on a forgotten skill or just improve your resume.</p>
<p>Just don&#8217;t expect to be fluent in something after looking at this; it&#8217;s a stepping stone though. And it&#8217;s free.</p>
<p>&#8230; Hey hey, I just found <a href="http://www.123teachme.com/learn_spanish/emergency_victim_phrases">this</a>.  Good stuff.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ok, so I work for a company that is trying to build a <a title="LiftPort Group" href="http://www.liftport.com">Space Elevator</a>.  Some say it&#8217;s far fetched.  They might be right.  But let me tell you, we get some &#8216;interesting&#8217; emails from people.  Got one the other day, I&#8217;ll post a snippet here.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8230;this surge creates what is called &#8220;the zero energy manipulator&#8221; device, which can then be precisely tuned and controlled using a zyrcon crystal to regulate the &#8220;buzz&#8221; of the movement &#8212;it sounds like static&#8230;I have been around these devices&#8230;they sometimes give off burst of intense energy when un-tuned and collapse very rapidly into nothing&#8230;..to keep these open you need to tune it very carefull to a constructive frequency&#8230;these frequencies depend on the intensity of the confinement and intensity of the movements inside the &#8220;bottleneck&#8221; or a magnetic field that self-pre-emeates on itself.</p>
<p>&#8230;</p>
<p>they recently&#8212;in 85, and 90&#8242;s and recently enhanced with nanotech&#8230;have become the machines I have described&#8230;in all respects&#8230;although small temporal paradoxes were established earlier on. ..which I cannot really reveal..because upon revealing such information I might as well just nuke the entire planet while I&#8217;m at it.</p></blockquote>
<p>Prob post the thing in it&#8217;s entirety later, assuming the guy doesn&#8217;t reply back to my response.</p>
