on art theft
everything in life has a catch
It`s the stealing that makes it hard
it the fencing of the stuff
we hear of the crazy a$$ richguy who wants the pay anything for a museum painting.
but in real life they are few and very far in between-if they exist .
also the pay out is much less
if you get a $5 million dollar faberge
you`ll at best get maybe 20k if your real lucky.
remember it needs to be choppedup
it`s the whole thats valuable
pieces tend to be greatly less value
there is a reason we rarely hear of museum breakins
it just worth it to most
can you imagine the mona lisa being stolen the guy trying to sell it for a million.
nobody has the money and everybody will try to turn him in for the reward

don`t forget in both directions
sounds that don`t exist in each others language
the -th is not used at all in the chinese language
ngoi there is no ng sound in the english language
rolling r in spanish is not used in english

i just looked up how to play flutes
fortunely I`ve played before so i can learn from it
but this would not work well with people who never blew into a flute before
this needs special attention to learn
video would help alot,but the text based stuff would be very hard
it takes massive amount of practice to learn how to properly blow into a flute
took me over a week first time out

don`t know
but I kinda doubt if we don`t speak the language of whoever we are negotiating .
that we`ll get the best deal .
ex. the early days of xerox with the soviet union.
complete lost of money till we got the hang of the language and culture.
japan you can speak english but you`ll still be at a disadvantage of not knowing the culture.
I`ve seen several ducumentary on lost deals about this
it is quite insulting for countries to learn our ways and we don`t do the same.

true
but thats true with any language
possible easier
since we don`t have to pronounce it
I think the major portion of time learning a language in the begining is pronounciation.
just saying ngoi can take months
most folk can`t pronounce it.
people can`t understand me saying pants or pans
and I speak with a northern california accent.
and yes dude is a part of my vocabulary

also immersion is a extremely flawed method of education
I was self taught till college so I understand about immersion
just being around english speaking people only teaches you what spoken around you
you will never know the nuances of english
ex. epitome,idiot,viola
without a esl class
you will never read these words right.
till someone actually say them in front of you.
immersion does not do that at all.
I had to take esl in college to learn that.
Eh-pi-tohm,Iye-dee-oht,vhi-oh-la
these are the sound of the word without esl
I always knew these words
just I never connected to the print.

I`m not immune to their charms at all

thats when it kinda falls apart

uhm
awhile back I was at a asian xerox conference
the guy was practically begging any fluent bilingual associate to sign on to his dept.
the china contract annually makes at least a billion dollars for xerox.
you can`t make that kind of money just speaking english.
xerox completely understand the value of learning multiple languages.
in business knowing only one language WILL limit you options.
this is a fact.

I may sound niave here
I alway found these guys lack a conscious.
without guilt.
I used to hangout with alot of con artistes
these guys think in a very basic level
great friends only when it suits them
but if you get in their way
watchout
the problem with that kinda thinking is they tend to think everybody else is like that also
so they have quite alot of blindspot in the thought process
ex. xo students
