I'm trying to clear my google toolbar history but the button that would say "clear history" is no longer there. How do i get it back? Another way to clear it? Thanks (link)
googles website says:
Google Toolbar search history
To clear your Google Toolbar search history, click the drop-down arrow on the Toolbar search box, and click Clear History.

If you don't see Clear History at the bottom of the drop-down, then you currently don't have any Google Toolbar search history stored. You may, however, still see search suggestions from your Google Bookmarks, spelling corrections, or sponsored links. Learn more about these Toolbar search box features

If you'd rather not store Toolbar search history, follow these steps:

Click the Toolbar's wrench icon.
On the Search tab, deselect "Store search history on my computer."
Click Save.

other websites say this should also help. hope it works :)


Ok, so in my sleep I moan really sexually, really loudly and I toss and turn a lot and I don't sleep consistently...
Like, I'll get a few hours(if that) at a time, then I wake up abruptly then can't get back to sleep for hours...

Is there anything I can do or take to fix this because it's really giving me the shits and it freaking my boyfriend out a little.

sounds like you're sexually frustrated? maybe have sex, or masturbate before bed if its in the question. I dont really have other suggestions? im not really sure if i helped...but...its the best i can think of


I'm looking for a king chess piece that is based on the anime Code Geass. I've tried Ebay, Amazon, and Google and still no luck. Here is a link to a picture of it:

http://img176.imageshack.us/img176/2705/1216082139gj4.jpg

If you guys can't find anything then it is alright, a website that sells other cool looking king chess pieces will do. (link)
according to yahoo answers ( http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20081216171415AArklKq ) :
"You cannot get an official replica of the chess set featured in the Code Geass anime, because it has not been made or released yet. The only piece that currently has an official replica is the Black King chess piece (see photo of mine in my source), which was sold together with a Lelouch figurine in January 2007. The figurine + Black King piece set has long been sold out now and the only way to get it is through secondhand or online auction sites, most of which are selling it for double the original retail price of 1,800 yen (~19 USD)."

in my mind,in the picture you post, the king piece looks rather modern, and contemporary. I googled "modern chess pieces" and got some good sites:
http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=modern+chess+pieces&meta=&aq=f&oq=

i typed in anime chess pieces but they are animated, cartoon, bright dragonball z, type of things, if you're into that, but it doesnt look like what you showed AT ALL! but i hope you find something like the picture- it looks quite cool! hope i helped :)




i'm having a hard time knowing who i am right now.
like personality wise. i don't know who i am or who i want to be.

am i nice or a bitch? do i want to be open-minded or what?

i just don't know who i am anymore. i really need some advice on how to 'find' myself.

i'm kinda scared. (link)
obviousely it would be nice to be a nice, open minded person. But to truly find the REAL you, you need to identify your opinion on things, without outside interferance. As is, not what you WANT to believe, or not what your friend or family believe, or what they want you to believe. That, will truly be you. Of Course your ideas and beliefs will be shaped by society, as well as your friends and family, and that is infact you, but only when you can escape what people WANT you to believe, and what YOU WANT to believe, will you find your true self.

What are you like with people? are you bitchy? now dont try to be bias, if you act in a bitchy manner accept it, dont criticize yourself or anything. So what are your opinions on things? are you truly open minded? Just sit down, with a nice drink, and think. Think about things that pop up into your mind- what you want to find answers to.

i hope i helped, and i hope i didnt make it too complex. I really like your question, and if i didnt really help, i hope you message me so i can answer you properly. good luck :)

Lately, my life has been extremely boring. I really want to take up something to do with my time.

I am not at all into sports so that's out. (I used to do karate and I was good and got to black belt but I quit because I didn't want to do it anymore.)

And well, I like more of the artistic things like music, writing, and art.

Here are some of the things I'd consider doing: dance (break dancing/ hip hop), guitar classes or keyboards, writing class, or an art class. I'd even do gymnastics (for like learning to do backflips and stuff).

So how should I spend my free time? Which do you think is the most rewarding? Any other suggestions? (link)
i think knowledge is the most rewarding thing. Yes sad i know, but i like to have a topic that im interested in, and research it, make notes, maybe do a little personal project.

You could do the things you listed. Also, if you got to black belt in karate, you must be good? why didnt you enjoy it? the teaching? maybe find another school or something? or pick up another martial art? Maybe learn a new language? its rewarding, and useful- employers love linguists, and if you go to the country where they speak it, you could use it there.

Why dont you try writing a book? My friends doing that now- nothing amazing, just on microsoft word.

Get yourself some nice normal and charcoal pencils, some paint, brushes, paper etc, and draw things around the house. Start off with simple things, then as you get better, move on to more complex things with complex lines and shadows etc.

You could pick up a new instrument- its rewarding, and fun. Do you know anyone with a guitar or keyboard lying around? maybe get a beginers guide to playing it, and teach yourself if you dont want to pay.

Use your imagination....hope i helped :)


Okay, I am 15, virgin. I would like to finger myself but I'm not sure how to even do it. How do I break my hymen? Am I to young? I don't know what to do, I want to try it so I know what actual sex will be like, of course when I'm married. However, I'm scared. How do I calm down and just do it? Will it be painful? Just tell me anything, please. I appreciate it. (link)
I had that problem too, just gut up and do it, its the only way you will find out, try watching something that turns you on then you will have an easier time doing it :)


Hey, so, I have this boyfriend who I've been going out with for about 3 months now. He's the sweetest guy I've ever met and a die hard Christian. I go to church with him every Wednesday night, and our friends tag along. I've been a Christian for most of my life, but there was this period during middle school where I wasn't exactly sure if it was really the right thing for me. I think I may still have a few doubts, but I go with him anyway because all our friends go to, and I figure it might change my mind eventually. However, my boyfriend keeps pressuring me to get saved and give my life to Christ, but I don't think I'm ready for it yet. I've told him multiple times that I feel like he's pushing me into it, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Now it's gotten to the point where I either do it, or he breaks up with me. I don't think I'm ready for that kind of commitment. I love this boy, and I have no clue what to do. Any suggestions? (link)
If you are not ready your not ready, and you need to tell him flat out, other wise if you give in while your not ready, you are just showing him that you will give in to anything as long as he puts your relationshipon the line, if you want to then think things through and get to know god better, but if he pushes you into being saved then you wont really be saved, you have to do it when you want to. So I hope I helped :)

I don't find being fingered pleasurable at all.
Like it doesn't really hurt, its not as everyone makes it out to be. Whether i'm fingering myself, or my boyfriend. It just doesn't feel pleasurable. So, is there a reason why it isn't?

And also, what could I do to myself that would be pleasurable for masturbation? Please do not just say "sex toys" because i'm not going to go out and get one. I don't even think i'm old enough.

So, help please ?
Thank you!!! :] (link)
try watching something that turns u on then rub the skin part of ur vagina and rub the lips fast, then you will get an orgasm, make sure you lock your knees, hope I helped


OK Dogs and Cats are out so please no suggestions to get them:

Ok so i'd like to know how it is having a rabbit as a pet. We are thinking about getting one of the mini bunnies that don't get very big, but how are they with cuddling? Do they like it? See we want something like a dog that we can cuddle but that we can potty train like a cat and our pet store lady said we can potty train rabbits, but I just don't know how much they like to be held and how they are if we are at work or if we are sleeping. Are they ok alone you know like will they get depressed or are they pretty good about independance (ok now obviously i'm not talking about all day every day, just like a few hours). Are they good with birds if anyone knows. Thanks. (link)
i my friend, have a rabbit, which is a netherland dwarf, i.e. the "mini" kind.

1. Rabbits (the very large majority of them) do not like cuddles at all! It goes beyond their natural instincts. The closest you could get is stroking its head, which my rabbit loves. Any further and it will let you know it doesnt like it. Some however like gentle stroking, but not cuddling.

2. Rabbits are very easy to potty train. You get a litter tray*, and just put some of its old poo in it. Within hours, our rabbit got the hang of potty training! *in reference to the litter tray, most (like mine) rabbits get right into the corner to pee, so it may go OVER the litter tray. HOWEVER you can get litter trays which are triangular-pyramid shape, and the back is raised well up, so that problem is easily solvable. Also, you must buy litter which is not clumping, and not clay based.because rabbits eat their own poo. A wood pellet litter is perfect.

3. It wont get lonely, as long as you get it some nice toys, to challenge it!

hope i helped! :)


My mom found all this pepsi she bought a long time ago in the back of her car, it could've been there over a year, maybe more. But I know sodas take a long time to expire. The bottom of the can says September 9, 2009. Is this the expiration date, there are other less clear numbers on it, but my dad drank one and he says he likes it better than the coke we have in our house, which isnt expired. Should I drink it? (link)
thats not the expiration date..its the "best by" date, as in, it tastes its best before that date. Its also an indication to the store that "do not sell after this date"..simply because it wont taste as good.

Pepsi can not expire. Perishable food can only technically expire, because meat can go off, as can dairy products etc. Something like pepsi, is not a perishable, and so therefore it wont start to grow mould or anything, and im pretty sure there will be no side effects. I say...if it tastes ok...dont throw it out...drink it. If it tastes off..then throw it. But theres no need to throw it out...its still drinkable...infact...it tastes better!


5 Week Old Puppy Is Throwing Up Food And Water. He Is Urinating But Has Not Pooped In 24 Hours. Acts Like He Doesnt Want To Even Walk Around. What Do I Do? (link)
well it obviousely sounds like its ill! therefore...take it to the vet...dont wait around...dont think "it may be expensive"..if you do...you shouldnt have a dog...im not at all suggesting that you are even thinking that...im just throwing it out because some people are.

take it to the vet!


I have blue eyes and massive pupils, people ask me if I'm high or drunk when I'm completely sober. This is in anyplace that I'm indoors, even fluorescent lighting. But when I go outside they shrink down to the size of a pen tip. I'm also extremely sensitive to sunlight, even when its overcast or cloudy I'm squinting and everyone else around me is fine. I asked an eye doctor about this because I thought it was odd and that I was more sensitive to light than most people but he just said 'everyone's eyes are sensitive to sunlight' and basically blew off my question.
So I was wondering what causes people to have huge pupils? And does this have anything to do with why I'm so sensitive to sunlight? (link)
most people with blue eyes have this happen it is sorta a genairic thing, I have huge pupils and my eyes are blue also, almost all of my family is like that, your genes must have that genetic disorder in it, it may not be as serious but it still a genetic disorder.


I'm running out of new music to try. What are some really, really good bands or songs I would like if I already love paramore and a little fall out boy, but still like aucoustics? (link)
you should try listening to some real country for example montgomery gentry, it has some really rip guitar try the sond hell yeah and ttoby keith's song american ride. it has some nice acoustic wave sounds, it really brings out the guitar I hope it helps


I have a big test on thursday, and I could really use some good study techniques!!!! (link)
Try listening to soft music in the back ground, and really focus on what you are doing, ask yourself a question and if you get it right reward your self by shooting five basketb or throwing 5 pitches or kicking 5 goals, lol somethingg like that, a sport u like


theres this guy who ive known for almost a year now, id say ive liked him for about 8 months now. he always knew i liked him and he always said he liked me. he wasnt ready for a relationship. we had a fall out not long ago and after that he apoligised and said he missed me and things...and now we are dating. obviously im really happy that we are now together, but it doesnt seem right to me, i dont know why. has anyone else felt like this? he is my first serious boyfriend. ive dated other guys before but they havent really meant this much to me. (link)
I have it takes aa while to get over your first love or first boyfriend that has actually gotten some where, me and my ex "noah" (lets call him that for privacy matters) had a 4 yr relationship, we broke up and I still lvoe him, I have been in a few other relationships but none as great as his, just see if he still likes you and if not try to move on, and find another serious relationship.


okay, im in highschool right now, nearing college! I am super excited about going to college. I still have a couple years but I am already preparing.
My dream is to be a radiologist! I've researched the career, and I love it! I know all about the job but how much would it cost to go to med. school after college? What should my major be in college, and how much will this cost? (link)
it depends on the college you choose, for harvard it ranges from 50 g- 150 g per yr. or semester, if you are going more local probably 50 g - 75 g


What is a good age to move out of your parents' house and find a first apartment/rental? (link)
probably 18 or 19 but you have to be ready to leacve home and your parents should be too, so wait and see, you will know when you are ready


Hi i am 18 years old and my boyfriend and I want to have sex but I am afraid that we might get caught by both of our parents where is the best place to have sex without getting caught (link)
in a closet or when oyur parents are not home try outside under the stars its romantic.


Hey guys I'm looking to get an inner wrist tattoo. Since it's going to be on my wrist it of course has to be small. I'm looking for really unique short sayings/phrases/words. I'm a girl too if that helps. Thanks!! (link)
is there nothing hat means something to you? a certin saying? something to give you inspiration? i highly recomend that you dont base your decision solely on what people on this website say, because its going to be on your wrist LONG after you even stopped using this website.

hope you find something cool :)
