how do you play girls' lacrosse? I'm a 13 year old in 7th grade and I want to try out for my school's lacrosse team in the spring. My sis played lacrosse and already has a stick so I could borrow it (if she feels generous! lmao.. but is there other equipment too? i think theres a mouthguard but idk) and stuff. I already do a lot of running with soccer and basketball that I already do, and I've played lacrosse before in school and it wasn't THAT hard. but like do you think i could have a chance on the team? and what are some things from your personal experience (i tried searching for it.. but idk what to search for or anything.. i'd rather hear it from someone whos personally done it) like is it fun, or what do you have to do? and how do you play and what are the best positions (iff there even are positions in this game..) etc. thanks for da help! & sorry this is kinda loong.

i was just wondering how come when i try to download music on limewire it says "disk problem" where the status part is? is there anything i can do to fix it? thanx

-make sure you are using an administrator account
-only save files to your master hard disk
-have at least 20% free space on your hard drive
the error happens for various reasons, sometimes for no reason; sometimes it can't be solved and you just have to deal with it.

Okay, so I'm going to need to fast for a long period of time to get a bunch of blood work done, ect. (I'm getting cholesterol tests, which is why I cant eat the days of the tests) so I was wondering if there are any ways to get my mind off food. I'm huge on eating many snacks during the day, so this will be hard for me. If any of you have any effective tecniques or anything, please help me out. =D.


Thanks Alot in advance!!
-Lynn.

drink a lot of liquids(some tests require only water, though) instead of food.

my computer is runnning too slow how can i fix it?
-i already deleted unused programs and music
-i also hav fast internet(dsl) and it still lags
-i hav yahoo virus protecting so it should hav a virus
-wat can i do?
-i hav heard of downloading a disk cleaner should i do that

there's a bunch of different things you can do. First, download spybot:search and destroy at:
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html
install, update, and run it. then go to:
http://housecall.trendmicro.com/
and run housecall to see if you have viruses. Then go to Start>all programs>accesories>system tools>disk cleanup and run that. Then go to start>all prgarms>accesories>system tools>defragmentor and run that. Then go to pcpitstop.com, register, run tests, and follow their advice. Then go to http://www.iobit.com/ and download, install, and run "advanced windowscare". You can go to start>run and type msconfig, this will allow you to significantly speed up your computer, though you could really mess it up, too.

If you need any help with any of these, you can leave an IM username in the feedback and i'll walk you through it.

is limewire leagal?
even if its a sharing program?

the program is legal. However, 90% of the things you download with it are illegal.

[view]


is there any program that like, when you zoom on in a picture and it gets all like pixelated and blurry, anything to make that go away? prefer it to be free.. thanks

not that's impossible. When they do that on CSI and other shows, it isn't real.

what are the risks of sucking in helium to make ur voice high pitched??

it's like going up to the tailpipe of a car and breathing in. If you breath pure He for too long, you'll die because there is no oxygen. Just taking a breath will not immediately harm you, but it'll kill some brain cells. Also, NEVER breath anything directly from a cylinder, the pressure could explode your lungs.

okay so ive been bestfriends with this kid for about a year now.. but the problem is hes 11 and im 14. i went out with him before over the summer. and sometimes whenever he flirts with me or talks to me i start liking him again.. and he used to like me a little while ago but i dont think he does anymore but were like really good friends.. last time we broke up because he liked this other girl.. if he does ask me out i dont know if i should say yes to him and trust him this time or say no cause of the age difference? but when i like him i like him a lott! and i think its going to be happening soon and i need advice

please help mee!!!!!

You definitely shouldn't reject him for his age. Look at it this way: if you were 44, he'd be 41; not a big age difference at all.

While christmas coming up, i still have a lot of christmas shopping to do, especially for my guy friends. I asked several of my guy friends what they wanted and pretty much the responses were the same. "i dont know", " i dont care" and the most specific which was "something funny yet practical" .... yeah.

Does anyone have any more specific suggestions on what to get guys (around the age of 17) and aren't that expensive since i'm shopping for like eight guys? please and thank you!

Don't worry though, he really won't be upset no matter what you get him(though you could make him extra happy)

one of my friends send me an email today and told me all about this website called imvu.com and its really cool.But you need to download it at the end and i have aol.Will my computer get ruined if i download it???Thanx in advance!

no, why would your computer be ruined? There's no spyware/viruses, if that's what you mean. If it says not to use AOL browser, go to start>all programs>internet explorer and download it from there.

Can some people tell me about garage band and acid and any other songwirting programs youc an use on the comp? Which ones good, how to use it, etc. Because I'm thinking of buying one. Please don't copy n paste something from a webstie about it, I want your own opinions and your information from your experience. Thanks.

go to download.com and click audio/video on the left. then click audio production. You can then search or filter 400 or so programs they have. Most the the programs have reviews on the site from users.
