Can anybody tell me about a movie where in the baby doesn't want to be born.. (here's the flow of the movie) It turns out that there is a kid spirit who doesn't want to be born yet and because of that a spirit guy is tasked to encourage the kid spirit to be born so He decided to let the kid go with him on earth to experience the wonderful things out there.... As time passes by the kid met his future mother crying at the bench. The kid pitied his mother so he decided to be born.. as for the spirit guy he was sent to heaven because of his success.....

Delivering Milo? (A synopsis fuller than ours can be seen here.) Deor (talk) 11:37, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Deor probably has it right, but The Hoober-Bloob Highway is similar, though animated. Matt Deres (talk) 18:29, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Who is that?[edit]

Can anyone recognize the woman in the picture? http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2ex58pc&s=5 Thanks.--119.155.21.141 (talk) 12:54, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Via TinEye I found this http://www.motivatedphotos.com/?id=38885 where the caption says "This is Maria. SC Rep. Gov. Mark Sanford's mistress." A Google search gives this http://gawker.com/5302526/meet-maria-sanfords-argentinian-mistress-named

Her name is said to be María Belén Chapur or Shapur. 78.147.140.229 (talk) 13:30, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

.....on the other hand, the poster-maker seems to have just put a picture of a random looker together with the caption, as the picture does not look like the 43 year old Ms. Chapur. 78.147.140.229 (talk) 13:41, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thats what I found but she doesn't look like the mistress. The picture seems to be of a celebrity attending a 'red carpet event' of some sort.--119.155.21.141 (talk) 13:57, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The checkerboard background seems to include Maybelline cosmetics. If you could find out what the other part of the checkerboard is, then you may be able to find the launch event for that product. She's probably a minor American actress.

If you prepared another image without the black or white framing, then you could find a match to the original photo using TinEye. Edit - I did that myself and found nothing. 78.147.140.229 (talk) 17:22, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I found Maria Menounos a little familiar to the woman in the picture. However, I also went through the first 30 pages on Google search for Maria Menounos and did not find that picture, so I doubt it is her.--119.155.131.173 (talk) 11:03, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That's my wife you cretin! Vranak (talk) 13:10, 19 May 2010 (UTC) Just kidding.[reply]

Larvitar & dratini in soul silver[edit]

how do you get larviter and dratini in soulsilver's safari zone? Jds500 (talk) 17:43, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There are tons of websites, like GameFAQs.com, among others, featuring walk-throughs and hint guides produced by other players. They're free to browse and read as much as you like, so they may be a better way to get a nudge in the right direction than buying a strategy guide in a bookstore. Of course you don't get the cool-looking maps and artwork the printed books do, but the writers of these things do good work. Hope that helps! --McDoobAU93 (talk) 18:31, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Trying to identify a song..[edit]

I don't have much to go on, but I hope you fine Refdeskians can help. I heard a song yesterday (before my morning coffee, hence the lack of details) on a US mainstream rock radio station. It was a guy singing, and was a quiet song - Almost acousticky, but I don't recall if it actually was. The lyrics were something about 'seeing what you see when you look at me' or something to that effect. It was a very sentence-y oriented song.. The lyrics were more sentence-y than phrase-y. I don't know how to explain it any better than that. Any ideas? Foofish (talk) 18:28, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't immediately ring a bell ... while you wait for other responses, you might want to try visiting the station's website. Many American radio stations give their playlists on their sites, and some might even tell you when said song last played. That could help. Good luck! --McDoobAU93 (talk) 18:33, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the answer.. I don't remember which radio station it was on out of the two stations I listen to. I've been scoping their sites for most of the morning.

I have become one of those people that I hate, asking about 'that song' by 'that guy' that's 'about love.' Foofish (talk) 18:41, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That's one of the reasons I love satellite radio ... you can see the name of the artist and the song while it's playing, and most current radios have a limited buffer so you can back it up if you just catch the tail-end of the song. --McDoobAU93 (talk) 18:46, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Stab in the dark, what about "It's Been Awhile" by Staind? It's an accousticy song with sentances, and while that exact phrase doesn't appear in the song, there are some like it. --Jayron32 19:18, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nope.. But that's the same general feel of it. Thanks for trying! Foofish (talk) 19:38, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am immediately aware of two possible songs that follow a more sentence driven structure instead of standard verse/chorus format that receive airplay on radio. Could it be Motorcycle Drive By or Sometime Around Midnight ? 10draftsdeep (talk) 19:42, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nope. Thanks, though! The vocalist was really un-accented and completely generic sounding. Though Sometime Around Midnight is a pretty good song, now that I'm listening to it. Foofish (talk) 20:16, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Stab in the dark, but your description evoked Jack Johnson to me. I don't know his recent songs well enough to give you more than that, though.--Xuxl (talk) 17:42, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In the Classic Rock area, could it be Wonderful Tonight by Eric Clapton ? It seems to have the sentence structure, a man singing, acoustic guitar, and has speculation about the woman's love for the man:

I feel wonderful
Because I see the love light in your eyes

This song still gets lots of play on US radio. StuRat (talk) 13:05, 19 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Pokémon Black and White[edit]

Will Pokémon Black and White be for the DS or 3DS? --75.15.161.69 (talk) 21:33, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Pokémon Black and White will be for the Nintendo DS. It will not be announced for the 3DS. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 22:08, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
