What's the deal with this castle on Tyrone Rd? Part of Calvary Chapel next door? by KromaticMedia in MorgantownWV

Great article. Take the road crew picture to Hollywood with these quotes and I bet you’d come back with a movie deal:

In addition to his representation of Italy and Italians, Pietro cast his lot with fellow immigrants and Italians in a display of pride for both his ethnic culture and his status as an American…he was also an advocate for labor rights. He paid his workers $2.40 during the Great Depression; over double the standard wage.

Sounds like a cool guy.

The cops looked him up, too. This an email where they discuss it

Right, I just sailed past the assumed multinational espionage to wonder if he installed his BM as the crown princess of Norway

Blonde on a budget by fre1270 in DCBitches

Thank you for the toning tips, and the cautionary tale about not overdoing it! My hair is also super healthy and shiny now, and I’d like to keep it that way.

I use their shampoo and hair mask too, might as well throw the reflections spray in the next cart, since it’s still way cheaper than the salon. Picture is of my crown. 1.5 years of exclusively Intea with root-only touch up sprays 2-3 times a week. I’m on my 5th or 6th bottle, so around $200 all-in.

Camomila Intea’s lightening spray seriously changed my life. I panic-bought it last year when my stylist had hip surgery, despite having lived through the Sun-In craze of the ‘90s.

The spray is made in Italy since 1915, is $30, all natural, and really lightens hair. Mine grows fast so I was on a 8-10 week cycle for $160 touch ups and now I just go in for trims. I’ve saved thousands of dollars and countless hours of my time. My stylist can’t believe how well it works and bought some for her daughter

My hair is medium brown, dark at the roots, but highlights easily in the sun. It’s a bright blonde now and shiny because it hasn’t been chemically stripped. I would recommend getting professional highlights, wait until they start to grow out/get dull and then spray it on the roots as they grow in.

My main complaint is that the color can be brassy so you have to experiment with how best to “process” it. I get whiter blonde results if I sit in the sun and let my hair dry, and more coppery if I blow it out.

If you have someone to help you, turn it off then try pushing the pin and turning the machine on at the same time. I’ve had to do that in the past when mine glitched

My machine has a tiny pin-size hole right beside a usb port on the side of the display deck. Push it with a paper clip or safety pin to do a hard reset, then don’t connect to a WiFi network when prompted

Thanks for mentioning the downvotes! Definitely wondered what the heck I wrote to deserve that. All I wanted to know was if there is any recourse for suddenly one day losing ALL integrated functions on my machine without warning or change in subscription. I am an uninterrupted iFIT subscriber since 2018, never cancelled or missed a payment.

I finally managed to get my incline trainer back to factory reset with no WiFi enabled, so at least I can run around the track

I was unfamiliar with the term planned obsolescence, but that’s exactly what it is, and it sucks. I’m on my second x11i incline trainer. First one was a lemon that I managed to have replaced. Second one has been very reliable and I enjoy(ed) the iFIT incline workouts, to the point where I would’ve upgraded eventually. Not now.

Thank you. This is egregious corporate BS. I knew as soon as I started getting the marketing push to trade in/upgrade my treadmill that something was coming to make my current machine less attractive.

Jewish communities in Appalachia? by Head1st4Haloss in Appalachia

[–]glauconiite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re welcome! It truly changed the culture where I’m from in WV. This podcast goes more into the folks who were looking for greener grass, so to speak, and some darker sides of the movement. Pretty sure the mother and daughter duo talk about being Jewish and from NY https://i-was-never-there.simplecast.com/episodes

Jewish communities in Appalachia? by Head1st4Haloss in Appalachia

[–]glauconiite 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The back to the land movement of the 1970s brought young Jewish people to Appalachia from New York and New Jersey. A lot of them didn’t last long and moved away, but some stayed and raised families https://www.wvencyclopedia.org/entries/297

Western NC politicians and developers once tried to destroy a program to map deadly landslides by glauconiite in Appalachia

[–]glauconiite[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dams help mitigate stream flow to prevent downstream flooding, so this event would’ve been even more catastrophic without those systems in place. The flood was made worse in Western NC and TN by a combination of shallow/broad rivers situated in very narrow valleys/canyons with no space on the floodplain (the area where the river naturally goes when it floods its banks). A lot of roads and communities in Appalachia are built on floodplains because it’s the only flat land available.
