  • Why does my internet seem to be slow? I'm I doing too many things at once?

    Numbers... Ping:10ms, Download speed:54.16Mbps, and Upload speed 5.51Mbps. I mainly use it to watch tv and movies on my television and surf the web on my computer, all from the same computer source. Is there something I am doing wrong? Is there a way I can learn to use the computer more effectively aside from doing only one thing at a time. I feel like it was faster but I don't know what could have changed. What's the best/cost effective way to check if I have malware?

  • Attachment image

    Does this picture look okay? I'm going to use it for my acting headshot..?

    I recently moved to LA and I feel I really have waited long enough to finally send in my resume in hopes of getting an agent, but I am still not sure if my picture is good/"professional" enough.

    Please let me know if you would send this in as your head shot because I know first impressions are everything.

    Thanks in advance for any help if you also know of any good agencies in Los Angeles. (I do have acting experience through classes, but none on screen, which is my dream)

    Also, can I keep it horizontal or do I need to crop it to be vertical? And if you're bored feel free to tell me how you'd see me cast just from picture.

  • Where to live in Los Angeles, CA?

    I'm transferring to California from Wisconsin. I will be working in Los Feliz. I won't be making much just 3k per month before taxes. I would love to find a place with washer/dryer in unit, but I know it's hard. I start mid June. I looked for places in April- NO LUCK. I would be willing to go again before I move, but only if its a final 5 choice.

    I am willing to travel 30-40mins with traffic, no further. I am single, 24, and I have no family there. I have 10k saved but I don't want to use that because I have school loans to still pay, car note and car insurance. I would love a 1bd but I'm willing to do a studio if it's a nice size or has good amenities. I want to spend under 1k. tip top max 1,100. I do not want a roommate.

    I looked at various locations, sherman oaks, studio city, north hollywood, hollywood and LA. I don't think I want to go lower than central LA, because of all the bad things I hear about the areas. I am a super homebody and I keep to myself so I want to find a place where I can be home, relax, and not paranoid I'm going to get raped or murdered.

    Any ideas on how to find a place in this short time or where I should look to move? Thanks!

  • '06 BMW 330i Sedan vs '07 BMW 328xi Sedan PLEASE HELP?

    I'm trying to decide which car I should buy: the two choices are 2006 BMW 330i Sedan vs 2007 BMW 328xi Sedan. The 330i is $17,900 miles 49,329 and the 328xi is $15,900 miles 84,176. The 330i is rear wheel drive the 328xi is all wheel drive; I live in the midwest and will be using this during the winter in sometimes heavy snow. I currently drive a 2008 Chevy Impala with front wheel drive.

    Which should I buy? I test drove the 330i but I didn't get to drive past 45mph because it was during rush hour so side streets were my only option.

  • Where should I move to become an actress?

    I will graduate next year with my Bachelors degree in business. However, I want to pursue a career in acting, school is just my back-up plan. I will be 21 next year, I have the skills, and I'm currently expanding my knowledge in the acting area. I was thinking somewhere close to L.A. because I know its expensive in Cali. My next choice is Atl since they have (so i heard) a better success with african american actors. My final choice is NYC, because they have a fair share of auditions, not just broadway.

    Im from Wisconsin, so the weather isn't an extreme concern, although too much heat and dryness wouldn't work. I am hoping people who live/lived/traveled to the any of the places could tell me what they think about the locations, also what would the rent for a one or two bedroom (if i can find someone to move with me) house/apt in a decent area would be.

    Please and Thanks!

  • Can you rent someone's home instead of buying it.?

    If someone is selling their home, is it disrespectful to ask them if you can rent it instead of buying it. I live in Milwaukee, WI and I am looking for a 5+ bedroom home to rent. Unfortunately, there are no homes on the market that are for rent and in a decent area. I see there are many 5+ bedroom homes for sale, I want to get opinions on if you would find it disrespectful for someone to approach and ask to rent your home when you are trying to sell it. Thanks.

  • Do I need an alternator or battery?

    I drive a 2001 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer Ed. I turn the car on and the battery light came on the dash. It did go away after a few blocks, but it came on again after 5 mins. It went off again and stayed off. Later I cut my car on again and did the same thing.

    Do I need an alternator or battery?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Car makes noise when it previously didn't!!!?

    Two days I drove from home over 50 miles straight and my car still purred like it always has and yesterday on my way back to the hotel it started to make this noise I thought maybe a motorcycle was near me..it wasn't. It was my car and i still had to drive 50 miles back home. I thought maybe it just needed rest, but that didn't work. It sounds like its coming from my muffler, but I don't know. What is the problem? I drive a 93' Buick Century
