Can I ask you. Where these ideas you have come from. Because they really aren't making any sense.
Now you should know that the prefrontal cortex has little weight on intelligence, and is mostly related to how we relate to the world through our personalities. I'd assume you would know better since you brought this up. Citing the hippocampi would also be erroneous, as whoameye never learned how to quote in the first place.

...which is a direct reflection of our interactions with the world through the processes of global executive functioning that the prefrontal cortext contributes to. The prefrontal connections between the prefrontal cortex and the limbic system are also dampened by repeated stimulation of the limbic system, which impacts on our ability to complete executive functioning.

He's giving it at good go, though. This would imply the (attempted) processing of memory and its long term storage - both functions of the hippocampus.
So...are you really into math? And breaking codes/cryptostuff? You seem really smart.
I am really into math...I have a PhD in a related field. I'm decent with cryptography -- I read "The Code Book" by Simon Singh in my teens and attempted to break the 10 codes in the back of the book. I succeeded on 8, but the later ones require some advanced computer programming techniques, and my skills there aren't quite up to par.
by HelenaBy definition, you told either more than two truths or more than one lie. Count the number of statements you made in that posts, mathematics genius.
I made 4 statements. I never said I'd tell only two truths and only one lie, so I didn't constrain the total number of statements. Plus, I was lying. What can I say? It's a game for sociopaths.

I wish PoMo would come back here (or post, if he's lurking here). He was a great source of entertainment and advice to the needy.
I taught myself Latin when I was fourteen-years-old, and I recommend that you devote your practice to translating sentences of your new language back into your native language. That's the most difficult part of learning a foreign language. Once you've got that down, your vocabulary will extend enormously.
That's certainly a good recommendation. That's how I learned my first foreign language, but it still took me about three years to become proficient. A prolonged stay in the country also had a huge impact. But I'm really looking for a way to rapidly assimilate languages, and simulate the way that we form neural networks and learn our first language. Memory is associative, and the idea is to attach as many connections as possible to a word.
If anyone is interested in these memory techniques (broadly classified under mnemonics) - you might want to check out this forum: mnemotechnics.org. There are a bunch of people there who actually compete in national and international memory competitions -- yes, there are competitions for that.
