They don't. They try to get him to say that what is troubling him is that he wants to be the king, but he doesn't follow through in the way that they hope. In act 2 scene 2 Rosencrantz responds to Hamlet's statement that Denmark is a prison tohim by saying "Why, then, your ambition makes it one." and when Hamlet ends his reply by saying "were it not that I have bad dreams", Guildenstern follows up by saying "Which dreams indeed are ambition . . ."

Possibly Hamlet catches on from this clumsy attempt that Ros and Guil are spies, which he accuses them of soon after.

In any event, in their report to the King and Queen at the beginning of 3,1 they cannot point to any reason for Hamlet's behaviour. Rosencrantz says "He does confess he feels himself distracted, but from what cause he will be no means speak." They tactfully do not tell Claudius that Hamlet sussed them out as spies.

They don't really. At the beginning of Act III Scene 1 they are called upon by Claudius to report the results of their spying. Rosencrantz says "He does confess he feels himself distracted, but from what cause he will by no means speak" which doesn't tell Claudius anything he doesn't already know. Guildenstern then chips is with "Nor do we find him forward to be sounded, but, with a crafty madness, keeps aloof, when we would bring him on to some confession of his true state." He is repeating what Rosencrantz said: that they don't know why Hamlet is acting strangely and he won't tell them.

What is a disorder that occures in winter months?

There is a psychological malady called by the acronym SAD ( pronounced as the word Sad)- this stands for Seasonal Affective Disorder. It is not in any sense universal, as many people like the change of climate in Winter ( snow- trees, Yuletide touches) but does occur as a sort of doldrums with some people. I have heard it discussed on radio talk shows.


Which episode of Supernatural is it when Dean pantomimes a song at the end?

I believe the episode is called "Yellow Fever". It starts out with Dean running from a poodle, scared out of his mind and scratching his arms to the point past bleeding and then the show goes back 24 hours in time to the beginning of the Case. Dean came into contact with the Spirit's revenge disease when he held a victim's heart in his hand at an autopsy of a perfectly in shape guy who dies of heart failure, subsequently contracting the 'ghost disease' which attacks people by infected person contact, that makes the person so paranoid he distorting perception of reality more and more so that everything and anything becomes increasingly scary to them in increments for a day or so until the person cannot take anymore of the stressors--dropping dead from a heart attack. The Chevy Impala scene in question, has Dean just doing air drums to Eye of the Tiger laying down in the drivers seat of the car, as his fright malady spreads, staying away from most things because he's overwhelmed by fright but not so bad that he isn't bored while waiting for his brother Sam to get lunch and a hotel room for them (but had to change floors from the second to the first floor because of the height) and began rocking out to "Eye of the Tiger" by Journey in his car; Dean getting worse as the hours go by though. And, at the end of the show, after the episode is over as an Easter Egg, (Dean) Jensen Ackles, fully lip syncs the whole song like a music video, but staying in his Character, on the Impala. This was either just an extra joke take that was very funny completing the song that way or the real unedited shot that was known to be cut-down to seconds for the episode and had a little fun On Set, with his air-drumming but sans the leg-guitar, scratching, the arm moves, and for the full song lyric lip sync. It's given titles before they show it and you can hear the crew laughing while he does it all and applaud at the end. Storywise: Sam and Bobby save Dean in the end of course by road-dragging with iron chains, the 'nice guy' ghost over the rough cement road where he was killed since he'd been cremated until the ghost disintegrates and the curse is broken, leaving only Dean alive, and barely. The ghost was a guy who was huge/ugly/slow, but very considerate however scapegoated when a woman was killed and the town's open secret was that her husband, the Sherriff's friend, looked the other way for 25 years until the ghost got his revenge, killing all of them before being stopped. Hope this helps.


Is it true that if you take a child's height at the age of two?

edits & additions: in italicsNo! possibly/yes The Average Height of a 24 month old child is only 28 almost 34 inches (girl) or 2 feet 4 inches. about 2 feet 10 inches. (according to cdc.govhttp://www.cdc.gov/nchs/about/major/nhanes/growthcharts/clinical_charts.htm)Doubling that would give you adults that are 4 feet 8 almost 5 feet 8 inches tall. Boys according to the cdc.gov growth charts are on average nearly 35 in inches at 24 months, so on average about 2 inches taller as an adult- 5 feet 10 inches.Some doctors/people say that: For Boys, if you mearsure them at 30 months and double the height you will have a better predicter of their adult height. the average height for a male 30 month old is just over 36 inches, about an inch taller than the average 24 month height, so a total adult difference of 2 inches. Substantial as an adult, yes, but it seems that it's just an estimate anyway, so take whatever child height worked best for you/your child and go with that one. Maybe the best approach would be to go with 27 months height!-This is where my edits end. Another method to predict a child's adult height is to take the child's 3 year old height, add 22 inches and then multiply by 1.27. So if the child is 36 inches tall at age three, you would add 22 inches (58 inches Total) and mulitply by 1.27 giving you 73 inches or 6 foot 1 inch tall. The mulitply the 2 year old height, was taken from a study in 1950 that stated children reach 60% of their height by age three. Later people just said to doulbe the 2 year old height, which was incorrect.
