How do you use the big globe in the Wi-Fi plaza in Pokemon Platinum?

February 4th, 2010

There is a large globe to the right when you enter the wifi plaza, and it is supposedly called visitor profiles. I have looked at it several times and I can’t figure out what it is for. The people at the counter in the middle say that you can check the panels if you press A, and that you should check the balloons that float by. I still can’t figure out how to check these panels or balloons. Does anyone have any advice? Thank you so much!

since there is a certain amount of people in the wi-fi plaza, the purpose of the globe is to see where the people who are in the plaza are from. for an example i go to the globe and i see my registered home town and i see some one in japan. to see more info where they are from you press a on the area you want, like the united states, and then you press x on the green dot(where they are from) and on your top screen you will see either three different backgrounds: a sunny one, a one that resembles the morning, and a one that resembles night. then if you wait you can see the balloons on the background.

i hoped this helped.

Is it hard to ice skate in figure skates if you have used hockey skates?

February 4th, 2010

I am sixteen and have used hockey skates all my life. I can do small jumps and move with great ease. I was wondering if it would be hard to make a transition from hockey skates to figure skates? Is there a difference in the way they feel? Would it be hard?

You sound like you’re comfortable on hockey skates. It takes around six to eight hours to transition to figure skates. Going from figure skates to hockey skates is easier – only takes an hour or two for a good skater.

The FS boots fit more tightly and come up higher on your calf.
The FS blades are flatter and longer, so heel edge turns will be tricky.
The toe pick is there. Don’t rock to the front of the skate to push off, etc. unless it’s intentional.
That’s usually the real problem – if your basic skating skills are poor (toe pushing in this case), changing skates is difficult.

What are some good tips and tricks for full backs/defenders?

February 2nd, 2010

I’m in 8th grade and soccer starts up at my school in about a month. I’m really gonna try hard this year to be a starting full back/defender (my coach calls it both). What are some good tips and tricks for me to become a better player at my position? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Never lose sight of your mark, who is typically an outside mid or a forward that drifts out wide. The most important part of being a defender is proper positioning. The best way to play is to position yourself where you can see both your mark, and the ball. You want to be far enough away that if your mark makes a run you can recover, but close enough that if the ball is passed to him, you will get there the same time. This should be your standard position for defense.

The next thing would be the way to defend, pushing your mark to the outside. Approach from an angle, slowing down as you get closer because they can come and burn you. How you close down on defense is crucial to if you make the tackle, or you look like an idiot.

Now for the fun part of being a fullback, in some formations they are allowed to be a part of the attack, so part of being a good fullback is your ability with the ball, and how you well you can cross the ball.

So in summary, practice your positioning, constantly being aware of where everyone is on the field, and practice crossing, because there will be times where you get the ball in a position to help the attack.

Best of luck

How do I reverse evaporation in a snow globe?

February 2nd, 2010

Is there any way for a snow globe to regain it’s evaporated water after a period of time….

For example, it is enclosed and the water level decreases over age due to evaporation, but is there a way to refill it by perhaps… condensation or some other way?
Even though it is a different type of water, I would still like to know if there was a way.
You did not answer the question.

All you had to do was submerge the snowglobe in cold water and then apply heat, the water level increases.

I’m not sure if this would work but you could try submerging it in water and having it cool over night.

When you take it out of the refrigerant, let it sit out on the counter and then after a few minutes you will see condensation inside the glass, move it around and it should raise the water level.

What type of ICE Hockey skates are good for a beginner?

February 2nd, 2010

I’ve been out on the ice a couple times, and I’ve been using rental skates. I’m starting to like it, and I’m interested in buying myself a pair of skates so I can get better, and eventually move up into being a goaltender. I took it up about 3 months ago and I love it, even though I’ve only played street hockey. With that said, what kind of skates would be good beginner skates?

First off, do you want goalie skates or regular hockey skates? Goalie skated have a lower ankle like a midtop tennis shoe.
I would start out with a lowend skate before dropping $300-$500 on a pair. Here a few good low end skates, but remember you get what you pay for.
Player Skates:
CCM- VO3, VO4 VO5 (not a fan of these)
Bauer- Vapor X05, Vapor X15 or Vapor X20, Supreme One 15 and up. (Big fan of Bauer skates) also they have a better selection of lower end skates.
Easton- Stealth S7,

Goalie skates:
Dont know much about goalie skated but I would stick with the CCM or Bauer Brands.

In the FreeWheelin’ Skate Shop exactly 1/4 of the skateboards are red and exactly 2/3 of the scooteres are red?

January 28th, 2010

If there is an equal number of red skateboards and red scooters in the shop, what fraction of the total skateboards and scooters together are red? Express your answer as a common fraction.
SHOW WORK

1/4+2/3

1/4 multiply numerator and denominator by 3 and get "3/12"
2/3 multiply numerator and denominator by 4 and get "8/12"

add 3/12 and 8/12 and get "11/12"

your answer is 11/12… yes this is a common fraction!!
