Just Me

I'm thinking of getting one for my 9 yr old daughter (She's been wanting one for quite some time).

The difference in names sounds like it might be a weight difference? Does one run better than the other? Better screen, etc.? Do the games that are available work for BOTH the regular DS and the DS Lite?

Thank you!

Please, HELP!

My 4th grade daughter is joining the school band. The school doesn't provide the instrument so we have to purchase one... ASAP since band starts next week!

Looking on the net, I'm reading things that I have NO CLUE as to what I should get:

1. Plated vs Non-Plated & IF plated, silver vs nickel

2. Open Hole vs Closed Hole

3. Key of C? (What does that mean? Are there flutes that AREN'T "Key of C"?

4. Offset G Keys

5. Split E Mechanism

Any others that I may be missing?

What brands are good... that are INEXPENSIVE? Recommendations? My daughter currently takes piano lessons & I don't want to buy her an expensive flute just in case she decides that she doesn't like flute at all.

Brands that I found online are Armstrong, Artley, Cecilio, Glen Edward, Oxford, Rosetti, Simba and Yamaha.

Any brands that I should stay away from?

By the way, the music teacher says my daughter has long fingers for playing the flute.

Thank you very much!

This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out. Try to do so without any coaching!

A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. Five minutes later they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?

A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three rooms. The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that haven't eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for him?
