  • How do I know if I have a shiny squirtle (masuda method)?

    I was just looking at the sprite for the shiny squirtle on Psypokes.com

    ( http://www.psypokes.com/dex/psydex/007/general ) and the shiny squirtle's only real defining feature is it's green shell. It is a very slight shade lighter as well but my concern in pokemon x and y is that you can't see squirtle's shell. it shows you a front view of him. So when I finally do hatch a shiny squirtle is there any way for me to really know it is shiny? I doubt I will even notice the very slight blue color difference when I don't have another one to compare it to. Does the hatching shiny make a noise or anything?

  • Does my landlady have the right to do these things?

    My landlady gave me a 24 hour notice saying she was going to enter my apartment for maintenance reasons. She had water running down into her living room from above (our apartment is above hers. We have no water running through our apartment so i figure it must be from outside) so she entered my apartment today and yesterday while me and my roommates were at work. (she conveniently set up the times so that they would take place while were were not home)

    I am just wondering if when she specifically says she will be there for maintenance is she allowed to go barging into bedrooms and do a full 100% inspection of the place while we are not home?

    I feel it is a complete violation of my privacy.

    I am wondering what the laws are about this in my area (Edmonton, Alberta Canada)

    Shouldn't the entry have to take place while i am home at least? it is like breaking and entering!

    I have done a search through some government webpages online to see what what the laws are on this and i have seen nothing about them even having the right to do an inspection at all!!

  • COD: Black Ops (Single Player Mode) question?

    i am at this part in the game where i have to steal a hatchet off a guy and my guy drives it into his neck and then i have to sneak in the shadows.

    I am wondering how the hell i get through this part. no matter what i do that idiot tells me ive been spotted and i fail the mission. HE is the idiot who is standing in the light when i supposedly get spotted. i don't understand it. i am starting to wonder if this is a glitch. i follow his every move and then he waves me ahead and if i move ahead the guard notices me. if i dont move the guard notices me. if i hide somewhere else the guard notices me. if i take a totally different route i get noticed, and if i get noticed and i run for it i only get so far before i get a mission failure due to detection.

    is it possible to actually get through this lame mission?

  • Factoring by Grouping (Polynomials)?

    Here is an example of what i am working on i just have a simple question about it. i don't understand why from -15 you end up with a +5 that makes absolutely no sense to me at all it should be a 3(x - 5) should it not!?

    4. Problem: Factor 4x2 - 3x + 20x - 15.

    Solution: Rearrange the terms so common

    factors can be more easily found.

    4x2 + 20x - 3x - 15

    The first two terms have a common factor

    in 4x. The last two terms have a

    common factor in 3. Factor those

    terms out.

    4x(x + 5) - 3(x + 5)

    Now you have a binomial. Each term

    has a factor of (x + 5). Factor

    that out for the final answer.

    (x + 5)(4x - 3)

  • Whats a good music program for creating and mixing music?

    i know there are programs out there that are designed so you can make drum beats with your computer keyboard and make your computer keyboard work like a musical one. i just dont know the names of any good programs for this. does anyone know some good ones? one that would let my mix guitar sounds in with drums in the back and other instruments would be perfect for what im doing. if it doesnt have that feature i can always mix them in audacity though.

  • What is the name of this movie?

    about 5 years ago i watched a movie on tv where a house maid meets up with her ex boyfriend who is a thief and they try to rob the house she is looking after but they find them selves in a series of boobie trapped rooms that they must escape from in a certain amount of time or the traps kill them. i remember a couple of the rooms. one had tiles that they had to step on with letters on them they were given a riddle and had to spell the answer by stepping on the right tiles. the answer was Juno.

    there was also a room that filled with water and they had to use a screwdriver to open a sealed exit or they would drown.

    in the final room there was a suitcase with money in it and the thief takes a some of it and the case is set to blow up if it gets too light. in the end the thief decides he is going to take all of the money and gets blown up.

    what was this movie called?

  • I think i have thrips burrowing in my carpets. what can i do?

    How can i effectively kill a bunch of thrips that are burrowing in my carpets. this species doesnt seem to have wings, but they burrow by the masses right down into the meshes under the carpet in my house. these pests are annoying because every now and then you just see a small brown tail stick up and start squirming around. sometimes they crawl right up and start walking around. they are ugly little bastards.

    using raid i have managed to get some to come to the surface. I have vacuumed up the surfaced bugs with a shop vacuum.

    is there a better way to do this? ive been doing this for hours and they are still crawling up every now and then. they seems to be endless numbers of them.
