Reviewed by Andrew Williams 17 January 2012 http://www.trustedreviews.com There are plenty of colour ebook readers around, but they invariably use LCD screens. This means low battery life, more eyestrain and a worse experience in direct sunlight than their E-ink counterparts, like Amazon's Kindle. E-ink Corporation, the company behind all the top ereader screens, already has a colour version of its own screen tech though, and it was showing it off in the Ectaco jetBook at CES 2012. Read on to find out whether it's any good or not. The Ectaco jetBook reader is different to most ereaders found on UK shelves. Its screen is 9.7in across and its resolution 1,600 x 1200 pixels. Currently the only colour E-Ink reader available across the world, according to its maker, it's easy to call this the most advanced ereader yet. However, it has deliberately marketed itself into a niche. The E-ink rep told us that it's primarily though-of as an educational tool, fo...

Original article here The first crucialelement in beginning to learn a language is motivation. Speaking a foreign language is not easy. It requires hard work. That is not to say that it is not fun. If done the right way learning a language is exceedingly enjoyable. 1. Write down the reasons why you are learning English. Why are you learning English language and not another one. Write down as many reasons as you can. Maybe you get the good job. You want to read English books, websites, magazines, watch English TV, travel abroad.... Are you 100% sure that you are ready to invest the energy, finances and most significant the time that it takes to learn a English. If no, please take some time to think things through. It is often easier to change way in the beginning. 2. See it as hobby. Enjoy it. Make it as enjoyable as possible. You can also use multilanguage translator on-line. Get enthusiasm for language. Do not limit yourself to textbooks. Immerse yourself into the worl...

original by Clara Moskowitz ( www.cbsnews.com ) Want to protect against the effects of Alzheimer's? Learn another language. That's the takeaway from recent brain research, which shows that bilingual people's brains function better and for longer after developing the disease. Psychologist Ellen Bialystok and her colleagues at York University in Toronto recently tested about 450 patients who had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Half of these patients were bilingual, and half spoke only one language. While all the patients had similar levels of cognitive impairment, the researchers found that those who were bilingual had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's about four years later, on average, than those who spoke just one language. And the bilingual people reported their symptoms had begun about five years later than those who spoke only one language. "What we've been able to show is that in these patients... all of whom have been diagnosed with Alzheimer...
