How did I lose intelligence?

A week ago exactly I read a chapter of my book chapter 4 of "Working Smarter" easily and took good notes. And 8 days ago I read chapter 3 of the same book no problem with and took notes. Today I couldn't get through chapter 5. It seemed like a sentence on each page I couldn't understand after I tried going over it many times.

Always have a problem when making curry?

If it's too watery, take out the meat and boil it off until you have the right consistency, then add the meat back. If it's too dry just add a little boiling water to moisten it up a bit. Another way you could thicken it is to mix 1 tbsp of cornflour/cornstarch with 1tbsp of cold water in a cup then add this paste to your curry. Bring your curry to the boil for 1 minute and it will thicken up nicely. Good luck!

Newly diagnosed Gluten intolerant?

All the health stores and some of the supermarkets sell gluten-free products, and all the health stores sell recipe books. But I find I get the best recipes on the internet. Just Google "gluten-free recipes" and you'll get millions.

If you are a vegetarian is can be quite difficult, though. Good luck with it.

My hubby is a picky....?

Here's what I do, I pick a meal and make it. If the other family members don't want to eat it then they can fend for themselves. I'm not a short order cook, nor do I want to be. I do make out a weekly menu so I know what to buy at the grocery store and I stick with it. We keep things like frozen fish sticks,waffles,pancakes, things that the kids like and can be thrown together without actually cooking a whole other meal.(I don't mind doing that) You could try doing home made pizza's, each person could make their own personal pizza. Have lots of fresh veggies and lean meats to add. Or try a taco bar, again, have fresh veggies to add. Those are both fast and easy meals that can be made healthy.

Suggestion on how to organize my recipe magazines?

i have 4 years worth of Rachael Ray mags and at least a years worth of Food network mags. I have them stacked in my pantry but of course, that is a lot of mags and i need to get rid of some. I will probably get rid of the first year or two of them b/c i had cut a lot of them up to paste the recipes i liked on recipe cards. so, there's not much to those anymore. I don't mind having one stack that i use all the time since everything I cook for my family comes from those mags, but i think more than one stack is too much. I don't want to lose recipes though, but even if i organize and keep them somewhere else in the house, they won't be as accessible and they will become too many to even use since I don't want to go through stacks and stacks just to make a dinner. I have RR cookbooks etc too, but those have different recipes in them and honestly the ones in the mags are the best. any suggestions?

He could be gifted or he could be academically motivated. Both types are high performers. I have known kids entering Kindergarten reading chapter books that don't qualify as gifted.

Do keep in mind that gifted children do tend to lag behind in either social or emotional growth so don't overlook that.

Why do Chinese and Japanese have a similar alphabet, but not Korean?

Korean used to be written in Chinese characters until the 12th century, when a Korean ruler (I forget his name) wanted to increase the literacy rate among his people, so he simplified the writing system by creating the Korean alphabet (yes it is a TRUE alphabet, and not ideograms like Chinese or Japanese Kanji, nor is it a syllabary, like Japanese Hiragana or Katakana). It definitely worked, because Korea enjoys one of the highest literacy rates in the world, much higher than the US.

The (Latin, I assume) alphabet is in that order because it came from the Greek Alphabet, which came from the Phoenicians, etc. I also believe that the North Semitic Alphabet was a parent alphabet for many classical and modern alphabetical systems. The song was just invented to help children learn the order.

Heart problems at night?

Does this happen mostly when you lay on your left side? If so, it is because you can notice your heart beat more when your lay on that side. But as others have suggested, the palpitations can occur if you have been drinking tea or coffee, exercising or even eating before you go to bed.

When buying a cookbook, for either yourself or a gift, do you look to see where?

it was published? Whether it is British, American or Australian? That is, if it is not immediately obvious as in THE GOOD GREEK COOK BOOK. Does the picture on the cover influence you? Do you prefer a picture of food or a picture of the author on the front cover? Do you make sure that if it is a Greek cookbook, it is written by a real Greek, or if it is a Burmese cookbook, it is written by a real Burmese? Does it make a difference to you whether the word HEALTHY appears somewhere on the cover? Does it make a difference whether it is written by a man or a woman?

Help with speaking Russian D:?

I've been trying to teach my self Russian,but I'm finding it hard to grasp. Though I've never found learning a language to be easy. I tried free sites like Livemocha but they expect you to write a small paragraph without even knowing the alphabet and only a few greetings. >.< Another reason for my frustration with the language is I can't roll my r's (my mom thought I was choking on something) Even though learning Russian is a difficult task for me I want to learn it because most of my family is still living in russian. Also, I find the language very beautiful..Is there any good tips/websites that can help? (there is no russian classes in my area)

Is it normal to have a husband trying to dictate my life like this?

Like for instance, he is Italian, since we met he asked me to speak to him English only so he learned. I did that no problem and with pleasure,.. now, as of today he is always whining when I am saying a sentence and cannot find the right word and say it in Italian...or like today I got a used piano in the mail and he wanted me to open the box on the floor and not on the couch cause he thinks the box is nasty since you do not know where it is coming from..

Suggestion on how to organize my recipe magazines?

i have 4 years worth of Rachael Ray mags and at least a years worth of Food network mags. I have them stacked in my pantry but of course, that is a lot of mags and i need to get rid of some. I will probably get rid of the first year or two of them b/c i had cut a lot of them up to paste the recipes i liked on recipe cards. so, there's not much to those anymore. I don't mind having one stack that i use all the time since everything I cook for my family comes from those mags, but i think more than one stack is too much. I don't want to lose recipes though, but even if i organize and keep them somewhere else in the house, they won't be as accessible and they will become too many to even use since I don't want to go through stacks and stacks just to make a dinner. I have RR cookbooks etc too, but those have different recipes in them and honestly the ones in the mags are the best. any suggestions?

How do I write a C++ Program that converts entered text to a "secret code"?

Essentially, what I'm trying to do is write a C++ code that will convert entered text into numbers. For example, if I typed "Hello" then the program would print out the number of the letter in the alphabet. Of course that isn't the actual code, but I need the framework for it. So how would I go about doing this? To my knowledge, I can use a switch statement so that when the user inputs the sentence, the letters will automatically get changed to the corresponding numbers, but I don't know exactly how to set that up.

"I be at da park". Were black people right all along?

It has been the general consensus that the grammar in the phrase "I be at" is incorrect, but I am here to propose that black people have actually been correct all this time. "I be at" is actually the only way it can be said while using the verb "be" in any of its tense forms. Let me explain what this means. Every verb has a tense that fits the past-continuing tense form. Lets use the words "run", "jump", and "play". In the past tense these would be ran, jumped, and played, while the past tense of be would be was. The current form would be running, jumping, playing, and being. These are verbs and thus have a form for all the tenses. So how would one use the word "be" in the sentence "I (blank) at the park"? One could say "I am always at the park" or "I can generally and consistently be located at the park" etc, but these are completely different sentences with different words, and are not using the verb "be". Someone prosed that the form of "be" in this sentence should be "am" thus rendering the sentence as "i am at the park". The problem is that this phrase doesnt treat the word "am" as a verb nor does it denote that one is always or usually at the park, but rather presently. Furthermore, am is not used as a verb by evidence that "am-ing" is not a word, nor can a persom "am",while someone CAN "be", and be-ing IS a word. All of this, coupled with the next fact that verbs that are in past-continuing tenses, are spelled exactly the same way, meaning that the way you describe the fact that you "run" continuously is by saying "i run" as opposed to "i ran" denoting that you no longer run. So "jump" is rendered as " i jump ", "run" is denoted as "i run" etc, and ergo "be" would be "i be". I believe I have proven that black people had it right all along when using the wording "i be" to denote a past but continuing tense. "i be at the club" is the only way to use the verb "be" in this sentence.

Vegetarian Gluten Free cookbooks?

Starting to learn how to cook?

Every girl in my family started cooking and cleaning at the age of 13. While I, on the other hand, am 14 years old and I don't clean or cook. I figured, since I'm not a big fan of cleaning, I might as well start learning how to cook dinner every night. Do you have any tips for beginners, or recipes I can try? Maybe an online cookbook. And what tools do I usually need to make a ordinary healthy dinner? I need recipes that are healthy but very delicious. My family has major health problems because of the things they eat and they say that healthy food is gross and plain. It'd like to change their mind. Thanks for the help!

Does this make sense?

There are many words for clothes: clothing, garments, attire, apparel, etc. They are used in different contexts. In conjunction with the word 'store', it's more common to say 'clothing store'. Otherwise, usually we say 'clothes'. 'Clothing' sounds a little more formal, so maybe that's why the word is being used when referring to a business. Also 'clothes store' is kind of hard to say with the TH S S all mashed up together.

Why is my pizza dough terrible?

This is very simple the reason your pizza dough is terrible is the recipe says to add the salt and the yeast to the water but salt kills yeast because yeast is a living organism.

If it is to hard let it rest for like 20 min make sure to cover it with a dry kitchen towel.

What dvd is best for learning the alphabet?

My very hyper son is 3 and he knows some of his alphabet song. But yet doesn't know them on paper. I need a dvd for him to watch that will teach him his abc's and also be fun for him to watch. He will only sit and actually watch if its entertaining. He has a laptop and can sit for hours playing but he has gotten used to just looking for the exact letter and not trying to figure out what the letter sounds like or really looks like. Its a game to him and only a game. Please help! Lol I want him to think kindergarten is boring by the time he is old enough to go. Thanks!

There is a lot of food used in science fiction and fantasy worlds, such as the Klingon delicacy 'heart of targ' and 'Lembas' from Lord of the Rings.

How to make my 23 month old to speak sentences?

she should be talking a lot more than she is,my son could speak very well at 2. children learn from others around them but shes lacking that contact. i think you need to find a play group or at least something she can attend to mix with others. there cant be only your family that speaks the english language,so ask around and see if theres people to make friends with,failing that encourage her to speak on the phone to family. you should spend an hour or so every couple of days saying sentences to her so she will pick it up.

Do you think my toddler has a speech delay?

He is going to be 3 in a few months. He spoke around 75 words by 24 months, then shortly after began combining 2 words together. He now speaks in 3-5 word sentences and has more single words than i can count. The concern is that when I hear him singing for example, he is so cute btw, he is singing let's say Barney... he will sing "i love you, you love me" blah blah blah, but he is kind of sticking his tongue out and it makes him sound strange. If you're trying to get the picture of what he sounds out, try to stick your tongue out and sing it and that is how he sounds. Anyway, sometimes his voice is a bit on the nasally side. Other than this, he understands everything I say and is very social and happy. He counts 1-15, knows alphabet and colors. Should I be worried here or does he sound on track? Thank you.

Hi everyone. I have trouble with this sentence. why did the writer use Do. in this sentence "but I do love goo?

It's impossible to say exactly why the writer used "do" in the sentence because you didn't give the context (i.e., previous sentences). However, a guess would be because the writer wanted to emphasize his love of goo.

Teaching children to read: whole word vs phonics.....help!?

I'm having trouble understanding phonics. I understand how whole word methods work, and that they can cause advancement very young (see this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1OdBcNAfIw). But I've also read that children can become confused by whole word when they're older as they are just memorising the shape of the word. My question is, how does a child learn the alphabet with phonics? Surely they just learn that each letter makes a sound. If you show them a "b" and make a "buh" noise, won't they recognise "b" to be "buh" and not the actual letter? I'm specifically referring to when teaching children from a very young age when they won't know any better, like in the above video.

If you were to buy one italian cook book what would you buy?

I'm looking to buy a good Italian cookbook but there's obviously loads of choice - I'm not looking for a celebrity chef book (would rather buy an authentic book than a celebrity name!) so wondered what you could recommend! I've had a look and so far am deciding between Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking (by Marcella Hazan) and The Silver Spoon (published by Phaidon) - do you have any feedback/preference for either of these (or any others)? Many thanks!

Whether the calls for such a crackdown are mere posturing or lead to more definitive activity by mainstream economics to restrict access to tax havens is yet to be seen.

Got a wedding gift a year after our wedding?

My husband and I got married last July, in a VERY small ceremony (parents and siblings) at the courthouse. Since it was family, and we already had a furnished home, we asked for no gifts. Last week, I got a package adressed to me at my work from Amazon.com. Seeing as I have never shopped online, I panicked and tore it open, thinking someone might have stolen my credit card or something. But it was a very nice cookbook with a card attached congratulating us on our marriage from 2 people I was sure I didn't know, and my husband didn't know anyone by those names either. It took me a few days to track down who it was who sent the gift. It was my parents friends son and his wife (whom I have never met in my entire life). I know I should write a thank you note, but what do I say? I mean, I have no idea why they sent a gift seeing as we absolutely don't know each other, nor am I even sure how they knew where I worked (they live in another state), or even how they knew or cared I got married. What do I say? Should I include a wedding picture? Help on proper thank you note ettiquette?

What happens to really old people in jail?

People get sentenced to life in prison all the time or when they are 30 they get 65 years. But when I watch those prison shows like Lock Up on MSNBC, I never see any old people. Sure you see people in their 50s or 60s, but what about people in their 80s or 90s? I know they get medical care in prison, and I know they are fed, so I doubt they all die by the time they are 60-something. Where do all the old prisoners go or do they stay in prison?

Why these sentence are fun?

It is funny because it is a play on words. The 2d sentence could be taken as it's too interesting to stop reading but in the context that it is in, it is solely meant to mean I can't put it on the desk because it is Anti-Gravity.

Going vegetarian is not a good decision for anyone your age. I understand, you care about animal rights. But meat DOES give vital nutrients to the body.

World history question!! help plz?

The common answer is C. However, Taoism and Zoroastrianism are both monotheistic and predate Judaism. Also, the Hebrew alphabet was derived from Cuneiform; however, Cuneiform wasn't an alphabet, so A doesn't really make sense as written. They are looking for either A or C.

Why should you let Yorkshire pudding mix stand?

All the cookbooks say you should let Yorkshire pudding batter stand for at least an hour after mixing. We all agree that a good Yorkshire pud should be light. I'd have thought that putting it in a hot oven immediately after mixing would trap more air in it. What am I overlooking?

Why the change over the intervening years?

A chowder that looks exactly like macaroni and cheese, and tastes exactly like pumpkin pie! And it's healthy! --from American answerer

What can i do with my 5 year old brother?!?!?

there are lots of things you can do indoors on a rainy day. I play hide and seek with my boys, or we will build towers out of blocks then pretend to be big monsters and knock down the buildings. Cleaning up afterwards you can have a contest to see who gets all of their blocks put away first and there could be a good reward in it for him afterwards, like maybe apple sauce and graham crackers or a posicle. There are so many things that you can do that are fun....maybe a game of charades? I don't know your forte but there are lots of educational things you can do that are fun. And you could always ask him what he wants to do too.

Always have a problem when making curry?

If it's too watery, take out the meat and boil it off until you have the right consistency, then add the meat back. If it's too dry just add a little boiling water to moisten it up a bit. Another way you could thicken it is to mix 1 tbsp of cornflour/cornstarch with 1tbsp of cold water in a cup then add this paste to your curry. Bring your curry to the boil for 1 minute and it will thicken up nicely. Good luck!

It is never too late to convert to Judaism but to properly convert is a very difficult process than can take years to complete.

Whenever you talk to her casually, just tell her you've been so busy downsizing and hauling stuff to the Good Will (or whatever.) Then immediately tell her that if she has anything to get rid of, to take it there instead because you really are enjoying the extra space and don't want to fill it with clutter again. And then repeat as necessary (I know, aren't these people a hoot!") I have them too, and have learned, like my sisters-in-law, how to just say "no thanks."

Homemade chicken soup recipe?

Terry, all you need to do is in a pot of water add your chicken, celery, carrots, onion (if you have), bay leaf, salt and pepper. That is the basics, I do not add squash, potato or spinach. I just bring it all to the boil, then lower the heat to medium high for about 20 minutes, then I lower to simmer. The meat will fall of the chicken, but before you turn everything off and plate, taste it for seasoning. If by chance you have a chicken or vegetable stock cube laying around add that also.

Where can i find recipes that have historical background?

What is meant by historical background. All foods are historical in a way, and vary with what was available locally. something like pasta from Italy originated in china as noodles. Potatoes in europe were introduced from the Himalayas, chillies from south America were taken to India by the Portuguese traders so to make definitive recipes is not really viable. The thing that is historic is the staples eaten in different parts of the world which you can find out about ( staples are things like rice potatoes bread pasta/noodles sago semolina etc).

I have a problem.. but i am not able to figure out if its ocd..?

well..... i am doubtful if its ocd because i have all the symptoms of ocd except the fear of germs, which seems to be the most common one..... i have basically developed this fear of talking because of my fear of hurting people..... i record all my conversations so that i can listen to what i spoke and if i hadn't hurt anyone,you know, not said something wrong...... i literally record alllll my conversations..... and if my phone is out of space to record any more, then i panic and just shut my mouth..... i keep checking every one minute if my phone is recording..... i ask this friend of mine everyday if i said anything wrong..... i need reassurance that i didn't..... i keep checking on my family and friends as often as possible to make sure they are safe..... i always have these thoughts of violent things happening to my family and friends..... then i somehow try to contact the person to know if he/she is alrite..... by the way i record my phone conversations too..... all of them..... i keep asking my friends if they reached home safely..... then when i am talking, there's this part of my head telling me to tell really mean things and hurt my loved once though i know i would never want to do that..... its like i am only half present in the conversation..... and i count a lot too..... though i am trying to control it now..... i keep staring outside doors to make sure i don't close the door on my loved ones and insult them..... i have violent images popping up, not very often, but enough to disturb me..... pl help me out in figuring out what exactly is it that i am going through..... this problem has been only for around 1-1.5 years..... i never had problems like this before that..... well i am slowly getting over the aversion towards numbers and alphabets..... well there's this embarrasing thing..... there are images i have of inappropriately kissing the person in front of me though i DON"T want to.. its involuntary..... so i try and move out of that place..... it disturbs me soooo much..... do reply.....

Can some1 explain to me what second order partial derivative is and how to find it?

Assuming that z is a function of x and y, the first partial of z with respect to x means to take the derivative of z treating x as the variable, and y as a constant. The second partial, means to do the same thing to the first partial with respect to x. Same for second partial with respect to y; just treat as a constant, and take the derivative twice. You should know that there are also "mixed" partials, where, say, you first take the derivative with respect to x, then with respect to y - or the other way round. Clairaut's theorem says that for most nice functions you will end up with the same answer, no matter which order you choose for the mixed partials.

Why In Cartoons They Sometimes Scream "It's A Cookbook! It's A Cookbook!"?

...back in the early 1960's there was a TV show called "The Twilight Zone" (and) one of the most popular segments was a show... showing some creatures from outer-space that came to Earth with a "Book" entitled ..."To Serve Man" ...all the People (Humans) thought it was a special book to help Mankind and bring wonderful things to Earth... (and) many of the Humans were offered a Space Ship ride back to the Planet from where these "outer space" people came from... so thousands of Humans got on their space ships and took off for this planet... eventually (someone) was able to translate what the Book (To Serve Man) really meant..(IT'S A COOK-BOOK... IT'S A COOK-BOOK !)

Activities I can do with a five year old to teach him how to read?

Make reading fun! The Starfall website is a great resource for teaching kids phonics. When you read books to him, read with enthusiasm and make the characters come alive. Choose books that he is interested in -- perhaps Super Heroes and books with well known cartoon characters. You may want to try BOB books- available on amazon. They are easy enough for a beginning reader to read on his own and as he does, he will gain more confidence. Books on tape also help make reading fun. He can follow along in the book as the CD plays.

My aunt made that cake for my dad I think 3 years ago and I decided to make it for him this year for his birthday (and for my sister for her birthday).

(I remember that because I remember how I was reluctant to eat it because it had coconut)
