In Pokemon once your pokemon is level 100 can you use a rare candy to raise it to level 101?

I heard aaaages ago that you could use rare candies on level 100 pokemon and make them higher, but i was like 8 and assumed my friends were just showing off.
But im generally wondering if you can, i’ve heard however from other people that your pokemon will reset and go back to level one.
Anyone help?

Help on some older movies I can’t remember?

So, I was watching Caddyshack today and it made me think of a bunch of older movies (I guess mostly from the 80s), but I can’t remember any of the titles.

1. there’s a lady who’s like an alien or something and she comes to earth to steal something from a lab, i think. and she has like a little computer person in her purse?
2. i remember it started off with these two brothers i think and they were working in a factory office or something and then the one’s like on the phone. then someone’s walking outside or something and they spill a box of like ice or fish or something and the other guy gets mad.
3. then there’s this other one where this guy’s like writing a story and all the stuff he starts to write comes true, like the girl starts to fell in love with him or something to that effect. and i know there’s a scene with a big party towards the end.
4. i remember there being a construction site and people getting into an argument. sorry, not much else there.
5. there’s these guys and they’re all rich and i dunno if they made a bet or what but they’re trying to get money from this girl and at the end you find out that she tricked them somehow.
6. well this one’s not outta the 80s, or at least i don’t think. but i remember that this family was driving and they found a ghost town-looking place and i guess their car broke or whatever so they had to stay. i remember this one part where the mom was like trying to help the son who fell down a hole or something. and the other thing that sticks out in my mind (dunno if it’s from the same movie or not) is that there’s all these cars that end up in the middle of the desert and they’re in like weird formations, like stacked things like that.
7. there’s a guy who works at a big department store and then this mannequin comes to life but he’s like the only one that can see her or something. and at the end she’s like about to be chopped up by a machine.

I think John Candy might have been in one. Maybe Dan Akroyd, Bill Murray, or some other 80s actors, too.

I figure some of them might be from the same movie; i dunno for sure.
Sorry I don’t remember anything more.
Help would be appreciated. (:
And there’s also a few disney channel ones as well.
8. The one has a kid who’s really smart and he figures out how to make people fly by putting stuff on their shoes and he and this other girl are like floating around in a lab and there’s a hockey game going on.
9. there’s all these kids in a treehouse and it’s very elaborate and when other kids walk by they launch water balloons and stuff at them.
10. there’s some kid who’s like delivering papers or something and he goes into an old lady’s house i think.
11. all i remember is some kid who’s getting bullied and he gets his face pushed against a pinball machine and the bully makes fun of his name.
12. these kids like find out about a guy who’s counterfieting money or something so i think they tie him up.
13. some movie ended up where they caught the bad guy on a mini golf course.
14. i always thought it was an olsen twons one but i dunno. they’re like in a castle or something and she goes on a stone thing and there’s a ghost girl
last one, i swear. xD
15. this girl’s like at a camp or something and she tries to make adults fall in love. (not the parent trap). but she’s like adopted and she goes to this family who like basically colllects kids but then a helicopter picks her up and she stops the wedding.

I need some help on a math problem?

The students on the football team raised money selling candy. Each member of the team sold 10 dozen boxes of candy for $5 per dozen. Several parents also donated extra money totaling $200 to th team. If, including the parents’ donations, the team collected a total of $3,000, how many students are on the football team?

My 11 week old dog chewed on my iPod head phones. I yelled no and tapped her nose. I don’t know if that was a good idea, not enough, too much. I don’t know.
