question:How to use a cookie press<br>Roll your cookie dough into a log. Your cookie dough needs to be log shaped so it's thin enough to fit into the barrel of the cookie press. To roll the dough into a log, pick it up and roll it between your hands. Can we infer the following? Cookie Press won an oscar
answer:It's not possible to infer that a cookie press won an Oscar based on the provided information. Using a cookie press is a method for making shaped cookies with consistent size and design. The process involves preparing the cookie dough and using a cookie press – a kitchen tool designed for cookie-making enthusiasts who want to produce professional-looking, uniform cookies quickly and efficiently. To use a cookie press, follow these detailed steps: 1. Prepare the cookie dough: Begin by selecting a cookie dough recipe specifically designed for a cookie press, as traditional dough may be too thick or crumbly for pressing. You'll want a dough that is soft but not sticky. 2. Chill the dough: Since the cookie press uses pressure to form the cookies, chilling the dough beforehand will make it more manageable. Cover your dough and place it in the refrigerator for at least an hour or according to the recipe instructions. 3. Assemble your cookie press: Cookie presses come in various designs, such as manual or electric. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for assembling your specific model. Verify that the press is clean, and choose the preferred disc or stencil to create the desired cookie shape. 4. Load the cookie press: Remove the dough from the refrigerator, and if needed, roll it into a log shape to easily fit into the barrel of the cookie press. Place the dough in the barrel, making sure it's filled neatly to minimize air pockets. 5. Adjust settings: If your cookie press has adjustable settings for cookie size or thickness, set these according to your preferences. 6. Press cookies onto the baking sheet: Hold the cookie press perpendicular to an ungreased or lined baking sheet. Squeeze the handle or trigger to form the cookies, allowing them to adhere to the baking sheet. Release pressure and lift the press to leave the shaped cookie on the sheet. Make sure to space the cookies evenly, as they may spread slightly during baking. 7. Decorate (optional): If you wish to add sprinkles, sugar, or other decorations, apply them before baking. This will ensure they stick to the dough while it's still soft. 8. Bake cookies: Preheat your oven to the temperature indicated in the recipe and bake the cookies for the specified time or until they are golden brown around the edges. Keep a close eye on them, as pressed cookies can bake quickly due to their delicate nature. 9. Cool and store: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, store them in an airtight container to maintain their freshness. As for Oscars, they are prestigious awards presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to recognize excellence in film and cinema industry. A cookie press is a kitchen tool and is unrelated to the Oscars or film awards. Therefore, the statement "Cookie Press won an Oscar" cannot be inferred from the information provided.
question:Article: The term "Hispanic" as an ethnonym emerged in the 20th century with the rise of migration of laborers from the Spanish-speaking countries of Latin America to the United States. Today, the word "Latino" is often used as a synonym for "Hispanic". The definitions of both terms are non-race specific, and include people who consider themselves to be of distinct races (Black, White, Amerindian, Asian, and mixed groups). However, there is a common misconception in the US that Hispanic/Latino is a race or sometimes even that national origins such as Mexican, Cuban, Colombian, Salvadoran, etc. are races. In contrast to "Latino" or "Hispanic", "Anglo" refers to non-Hispanic White Americans or non-Hispanic European Americans, most of whom speak the English language but are not necessarily of English descent. Question: When did the term "Hispanic" begin being used?
answer:The term "Hispanic" began being used in the 20th century. It started when people from Spanish-speaking countries in Latin America moved to the United States to find work.
question:Definition: In this task, you're given a statement, further information available on a particular linked term from the statement, and a question. Your job is to generate the answer to the question by using the information provided. If there is no clear answer obtainable, output 'none'. Input: Context: the river flows northward into Montana between the northern Absaroka Range and the Gallatin Range in Paradise Valley. The river emerges from the mountains near the town of Livingston Link Information: Livingston is the county seat of Park County, Montana, United States. Question: In which state is the town that the Yellowstone River emerges after passing through the Gallatin Range? Output:
answer:Montana
question:Read the article and select the best answer. Article: At Dallas/Fort Worth Airport, the lights are controlled by sensors that measure sunlight. They dim immediately when it's sunny and brighten when a passing cloud blocks the sun. A wall of windows at a University of Pennsylvania engineering building has built-in blinds controlled by a computer program that follows the sun's path. Buildings are getting smarter and the next generation of building materials is expected to do even more. Windows could catch the sun's energy to heat water. Sensors that measure the carbon dioxide breathed out by people in a room could determine whether the air conditioning needs to be turned up. Many new materials and technology have been designed in the last 15 years. They are now being used in a wave of buildings designed to save as much energy as possible. They include old ideas, like "green roofs", where a belt of plants on a roof helps the building keep heat in winter and stay cool in summer, and new ideas, like special coating for windows that lets light in, but keeps heat out. As technologies such as sensors become cheaper, their uses spread. The elevators at Seven World Trade Center, which is under construction in New York, use a system that groups people traveling to nearby floors into the same elevator, thus saving elevator stops. People who work in the building will enter it by swiping ID cards that will tell the elevators their floor, readouts will then tell them which elevator to use. The building also has windows with a coating that blocks heat while letting in light. More new building materials and technology are in development. A Philadelphia building firm is now working on "smart wrap" that uses tiny solar collectors to catch the sun's energy and transmitters as wide as a human hair to move it. They are expected to change the face of the construction industry in the next ten years or so. Question: _ will be developed and used in the construction industry. Options: A: "Green roofs" that cool or heat buildings B: "Smart wrap" that catches the sun's energy C: Sunlight-measuring sensors that control lights D: Window coating that lets light in, but keeps heat out The answer to this question is:
answer:B: "Smart wrap" that catches the sun's energy
