Nothing encouraging so far. What’s worse, the link they provided me to see the site directly through their name server also doesn’t show. Is this problem really a DNS thing, or are some larger settings messed up? I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep tonight I tried using proxies….. no show. Not posting any [...]
For some reason, some bright guy in the company hosting my Wide Aware site changed the DNS servers of my website. Everything was fine and there was absolutely no reason to fiddle with anything at all, but *sigh* I guess someone forgot to tell them – “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” So there [...]
Two years ago, I didn’t understand much about computers beyond checking email and the occasional google search for some information I required. It even took me some time to figure out that I could right-click and open a variety of options from the search to check them all out rather than follow one of them. [...]
I think I’m on a roll for modelling tips. Anyway, here goes. You have a brand new portfolio ready and want to begin modelling. You are aware that modelling is like any other profession and requires a lot of hard work and sincere efforts to do well. Great – its time to begin circulating your [...]
For most modelling, acting related work, a portfolio need not always be professionally shot, as long as the pictures are good.

I got myself a new Lenovo laptop with a Vista pre installed. I thought this would be the ultimate in freedom, etc. Unfortunately, it is not so. My laptop runs like a bullock cart even with 1GB of RAM. Sad. I am used to super speeds with 1GB on my desktop. So what do I [...]
An atheist was walking through the woods one day in Alaska, admiring all that evolution had created. “What majestic trees! What a powerful river! What beautiful animals!” he said to himself. As he was walking alongside the river, he heard a rustling in the bushes behind him. Turning to look, he saw a 13-foot Kodiak [...]
Seriously, if I get another call to tell me how the caller is really interested in becoming a model or an actor, I’m going to scream. I can understand the powerful pull that films and other media have on people. The whole rush of imagining yourself being viewed and admired by a whole population. Nothing [...]
For no reason in particular, I am in the mood to make an adventure related film. Right now, its monsoons, so I will probably take a month or two to plan it, and then I’m in the mood to simply plan a hike/trek/stay on a fort with all cast and crew and shoot the damn [...]
I had been longing to get rid of my Windows OS and begin using Linux. However, as there always is, there was a catch to the story. I have horrendous amounts of data on my machine. Stuff that I couldn’t afford to lose. Easy. I backed it up. But the problem was that the data [...]
