I recently moved to Chicago and the paying for city parking and residential parking is a real hassle...

Anyways, I got into a little fender bender and my car is in the shop so I was given a rental. I park on residential, do I still need to get a sticker for it? Not a city sticker but the residential sticker. The car will be in the shop for hopefully a week. The rental car is Ohio plates. Doesn't out of state plates get a 30 day grace period?

Or does the Casting Director tell you through the Casting networks. My agency only submits me to commercials and the rest I'm allowed to submit myself. I submitted myself to a music video and I got an audition but have to cancel it. I was going to just hit the cancel button with a description of why I have to cancel but does that mean I have to tell my agent as well? Even though my agent wasn't the one that gave it to me.

I hear stories about people cancelling through their agency and the agency doesn't call them back for months.

Say I wanted a proximity sensor to only sense an object like my keys. Is that possible?

In other words, are there proximity sensors that you can make, or buy, that can sense certain objects and/or frequencies.

This can also include another device that the proximity sensor can connect to on the key or object itself.

*Bonus: if that's the case, would it be better to just go bluetooth?

I was looking into creating a mobile app. I personally wont be doing any of the coding but instead hiring a freelancer to do it. This being my first time, I wanted to know, If someone from India created my app and finished it, do they send me a file (like a .apk file) to me and then I put it/transfer it on to itunes developer account. (I know that I have to register for itunes for all that stuff and pay the yearly developer account. So lets just assume I already have an account revving to go.) Or do they do it for you.

Honestly I'd rather put it in myself when the app is done but if there's no other choice but to have them do it. Then that's fine too. I just wasn't too sure and I wanted to get as much information before doing it.

I have some co-workers who can eat very spicy things. I want to give them the SPICIEST sauce as a gift. Also I want to see them actually say "wow that's spicy". I want them to cry :D

Can anyone recommend a super spicy sauce that I can buy around San Francisco. I don't mind driving for it out of San Francisco either.

Siracha is childs play to them. They eat jalapenos for snacks. The sauces in Safeway taste like candy to them.

There is a 2005 Toyota Celica at a dealership that I checked out today. Drove great, looked fantastic but that was on the outside. I checked their carfax and it was transported from Hawaii. 62k miles. Clean title. No accident reported and 2 previous owners.

The dealer was nice enough to tell me that people shy away from cars that are transported from another place such as Hawaii. He already took it to the mechanic and checked out good but that was just a basic check. The dealer told me about why some people wouldn't want to buy a car that was transported from Hawaii because of rust. I looked inside and outside of the car as much as possible and checked what I can visually see on the engine and beyond. There actually isn't much at all. But thats just visually inspecting what I see from under the hood.

It's selling for $9000. What do you guys think. Should I Pass? Shocks don't looks rusted nor does the brakes. But like I'm saying, its so hard to tell from just looking and looking at the major spots if minor rust is going to be costly in the future.

Bottom line is, would you buy a car that was transported from Hawaii?

I'm debating on either a 2009 Cooper S or GTI.

What I want to know is which car would be better in the long run. I live in San Francisco so taking into consideration the Insurance, annual fuel cost, reliability (A Huge Factor), maintenance.

I checked many online websites about pros/cons and what not, but sometimes you just can't get that extra information that other people can give. :D

I'm feeling a little blue today.

Give me your best motivational quote to get me through the day. Either you made it up or your favorite quote.

Pump me up!

Thank you

I already know it depends on the driver and their skill level but lets put that to the side.

If a 1000cc motorcycle has, say 125hp and a 600cc with the same amount of horsepower (which isnt uncommon nowadays) were to drag race would they be neck and neck? Considering the riders are equally the same skills level.

The reason this question comes up is that my friend has a 2003 Z1000 and my other friend has a 2006 Triumph Daytona 675. The Z1000 reported a 125hp ( I know they all can differ but just assume it) and the 675 reported at 123hp. That's pretty close. My friend with the 675 says he'll smoke the z1000 because of power and weight ratio... honestly the z1000 isnt that heavy and far off from the horsepower range as well.

I have a 2003 Z1000 and I am going for a particular look. I want Quad Exhaust that is around $500. So far the only one I saw was on ebay and its used. Its a Laser X-treme brand. I do like the look but I was looking for more of a larger exhaust. Think; same length as the stock exhaust but aftermarket. Anyone know any good quad exhaust that is around $500? So far I see dual but ill only go for that if I can't find the quad exhaust.

I live in California by the way. I see a lot of UK exhaust but shipping is expensive.

I have 03 z1000. I dont like the stock mirrors so I'm thinking about getting bar end mirrors. I know my stock mirrors are high but they dont protrude out pass my handle bars but still weaving through traffic, I come close to hitting car mirrors if the cars dont give enough passing room. So I was thinking about bar end. After looking at other bikes with bar end mirrors, they protrude just a bit. Makes the bike a bit wider. But not having actually ridden with bar end mirrors, I just wanted to know from other people, how they like their bar ends and if they ever hit anyone's car mirrors when passing by.

Im 25 years old and im starting to see a receding hair line. I was searching for things that could at least help aid in slowing the progression and or possibly reversing it. I've read a lot about saw palmetto and the first thing it was originally used for was prostate. I don't have prostate problems and it talks about shrinking an enlarged prostate. If it has that effect, what will it do to a normal size prostate and penis? I was thinking about taking the supplements in pill form. Not everyday. Maybe once a week or so.

Anyone used Saw palmetto for hair loss?

Heres the link to the youtube video. I only found one song. I really want to know the beginning of the song. Can anyone tell me.

So im selling my miata and I had a potential buyer take a look at it. Seemed like a good guy. I let him test drive it while i was in it, holy moly he was revving my miata like crazy! And just GUNNED it for 4 blocks total! So I told him to park the car and that was it.

What i want to know, is how bad was that for my miata. It was a cold start, not warmed up, he just revved like crazy and drove like a mad man. Just for a few blocks. I have a 97 miata with 94xxx miles. You think he could've ruined my clutch?

There so inexpensive but I wanted to get another opinion. I live in SF and the softtops on Ebay and Amazon were $300 or less. Someone quoted me $1000 for the top and installation. But I want to buy my own top and then let him install.

Anyone buy the soft top from ebay or amazon before?

Or was it only in Japan.

Im going to need to replace my shocks/struts soon on my 97 miata and I plan on lowering my car. Im just doing it for looks and not racing. But if bought stock shock and struts (like the monroe brand) and lowering springs. Will that work? I've never tried it before. I've always had coilovers. But I want a cheap alternative. And suggestions?

I dont have my manual.

What is the size for the 99 honda cbr tail light. I know its a wedge shape. I want to buy LEDs for the my tail light.

I recently got my certification in Personal Training. (NCSF)

I wanted to know (Besides Clients) what I needed to get started in the Personal Training business. Do I need to buy insurance? How much is a typical rate for Personal Trainers? At fitness usa, a personal trainer was selling a 10 session workout for $560. Is that a reasonable price? (If you don't mind telling, whats your price?)

I found a facility that lets Personal Trainers use there gym for a flat rate. So I know that clients are needed and a place to workout. What else and what kind of advice can you offer?

Thanks

Say someone broke into a car and left blood all over the seat from the glass they broke. Could the cops find out who that person is?

A friend told me no, unless that person had a past criminal record. If they dont, then the cops wont ever be able to find that person even with the blood as evidence.

Is that true?
