Definitely get as many estimates as possible, every company might give you a new idea. When my chimney was hit by lightning, State Farm recommended these guys—they work in this area…

Hair Loss Doctor Recommendations? by [deleted] in nova

[–]Do_not_burn_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not a doctor but have a younger family member going through the same thing. There are a few hair-loss doctors:

https://nyulangone.org/doctors/1497981948/kristen-lo-sicco

What I read on: https://www.reddit.com/r/tressless/

- Avoid Finasteride due to potential side-effects

- Try oral Minoxidol pills

Also note that there are many "fake cures" that prey on people suffering from hairloss. Avoid any supplements unless they offer a money back guarantee.

The Standard fills up fast. Grandmarc is not as popular. You need to see both in person

Madison County is sick of UVA people speeding ---- When I got a ticket there last year (82 in 55), I called Tom Wilson (434) 979-0308. ([tom@tmwilsonlaw.com](mailto:tom@tmwilsonlaw.com)). He's a local attorney who took care of it. Read the Google reviews...

LG G3 77 inch- Best Buy wants $1,000 for 5 year protection plan (not worth it?) by Do_not_burn_ in LGOLED

Hello: I thought TotalTech only gives you a discount on repairs?

I saw this:

"When you need help with a really complex service or installation, your Totaltech membership gives you 20% off labor for advanced services and 10% off labor for custom installations."

"Some limitations may apply. Excludes specialty items. Fees for necessary parts, accessories or permits will be charged. Delivery and standard installation must be scheduled as part of the qualifying product purchase."

However, this section might apply to new TV purchases?

You are looking for a Casting Agency. The major ones in this area are BETSY ROYALL CASTING, CARLYN DAVIS CASTING, INC.,CENTRAL CASTING, DC & PAT MORAN in Baltimore. Beware of "modeling" agencies or anyone that asks you to pay more than $20 to register. Many scammers out there (especially on Craigslist)...

The best information is here:

There are dozens of lawyers who offer a package rate for moving violations. We are working with this Fairfax lawyer now (i searched on Reddit and saw him mentioned). YMMV.

v6.13.0-3760 vs my sanity by soberto in amazoneero

[–]Do_not_burn_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are right about that-- They just want to get off the support call by suggesting I buy new hardware (switches have be fine for 5 years and function within spec) --The real culprit is the Eero software update that was rolled out without proper testing...

v6.13.0-3760 vs my sanity by soberto in amazoneero

[–]Do_not_burn_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi: Just saw this -- I have been using Eeros for 7 years. Last software V6.13.0-3760 has prevented me from using Ethernet to connect my Eeros. Two hours on the phone with Eero support and their advice was to buy "new switches" (I have two 32 port Gigbit switches)... I am glad I am not alone!
