Reading about aloud क्या बोलकर पढ़ने से कोई फायदा है?

बोलकर पढ़ने के कई फायदे है. मुझे तो छाती का कुछ एक्सरसाइज करना पड़ता है, इसलिए फायदा लगता है. लेकिन असल फायदे ये है:

याद रखने में सहायक।
जिस आईडिया की बात हो रही है लिखित में,बोलकर पढ़ना, उसे समझने में सहायक
सामाजिक सम्बन्ध मजबूत होते है. बच्चे को पढ़कर सुनना अच्छा होता है. आपके और बच्चे के बीच सम्बन्ध बनता है. बड़ो के लिए भी फायदेमंद.
बोलकर पढ़ना मनोरंजक भी है. दो लोग यदि बोलकर पेपर पढ़े तो दोनों का मनोरंजन और बातचीत का बहाना बनेगा.

Today's Best Reads: "Influence of Islam and Sufism on Sikhism" and "Muhammad and Women"

Today's best reads are "Influence of Islam and Sufism on Sikhism" and "Muhammad and Women".
Best part of both reads are that they discussed about Origin of two religions: Islam and Sikhism in short. I never read about Sikhism and its closeness to Islam. The mentioned article describe that in enough details. It also highlights about the time at which Sikhism developed here in the context of India. It gives enough context regarding India that you may want to read more about it from other sources.

Similarly, article "Muhammad and Women" gives details about how Women was regarded at the time before Mohammed in Middle East and how Mohammed placed women in rightful manner in society. It gives details about Mohammed life, his marriages, and support he received from his wife and daughters.

Important note is that both articles posted on their respective religious websites. So, it can bring partiality. But it is good to read from source then just hearsay. After getting context, you can dig more about any subject.

[Off-topic but important: You may find difficulty in reading both articles as text is very small. Take help of iReader.]

Still here! Ok, here are few points to ponder:

Listening to music through headphones while exercising can be dangerous. Blood may be diverted from the ears to the limbs leaving the inner ear more vulnerable to damage from loud sound. A Finnish study recommended that exercisers should set their headphone volumes to half of their normal loudness and only use them for half an hour. More...
At above 160 kbps, sound is near to original. At 320kbps, it is almost equal to original.
