I don't like to give out wrong information and need to be sure I don't have my wires crossed here. Are you talking about the Isavera website, or another product line? Because when I clicked Shop Now at Isavera the leg and arm belts are out of stock but I was able to begin an order for a belly belt. I didn't go as far as the payment page but didn't see any Out Of Stock or Back Order indicators. TIA I measured today and lost one inch the first week, as I suspected a couple days ago.

I don't presume exploitation in sexual transactions, so the point in your original statement eluded me. Goodbye.

Whether by choice or habit a lot of people don't analyze what they see and hear. Some watch every minute of a show and others use it as background noise while they do chores, get ready for work, etc, Some celebrities provide entertainment without openly deceiving their audiences and others are not held to that standard. Long-time experience has shown KR that she can make bank by being deceptive and meeting low expectations. Her snide responses when she is criticized reveal her true nature.

Could you elaborate on this?

@ShawnaLanne 30 minutes ago ShawnaLanne said I don't care for her much, and I'm sure she has the best interior designers on hand to decorate, but she has the vest taste of all of the housewives. Or let's say the best WASP taste. Everyone else looks kind of tawdry in comparison. I remember reading Santa Barbara magazine years and years ago – it was a story about a blonde Dutch model who had married well and had 3 tiny children who were all already riding horses (ponies for the smallest ones.) The blonde was gorgeous and skinny and living in one of those beautiful Montecito estates filled with antiques she had found in Europe while on vacation, of course. I remember reading that particular story and thinking – wow. What a life! A few years later, when the book “Santa Barbara Living” by Diane Dorrans Saeks was published – there was that same story again with the beautiful blonde and her three even prettier children. No pictures of the husband though. https://cotedetexas.blogspot.com/2014_03_09_archive.html?m=1 https://www.cnbc.com/2017/10/19/inside-the-mansion-where-gigi-and-bella-hadid-grew-up.html https://www.sheknows.com/entertainment/slideshow/4183/yolanda-foster-gigi-and-bella-hadid-pics/

Erika still has a bad taste in her mouth because of PK's “I am upset because I'm watching you gang up on my wife." Adding, "Erika, you're not deliberately cold. You're inherently cold.” Boo hoo. Own what you bring, Ice Queen.

Could be, she's that stupid. Proof of that: thinking anyone would believe her physical transformation is due to "OK, some lip plumping but the rest is hair and makeup." The dimwit nerd who bought a new face and a new body is... still a dimwit nerd.

I intended to mention this awhile back and forgot.

In a Wistful Age, Farmers Find a New Angle: Chore TV Though Mr. Gold sells poultry and eggs from his duck farm in Vermont’s northeast corner, most of what he produces as a farmer is, well, entertainment. Mr. Gold, who is short and stocky, with the good-natured ease of a standup comedian, does his chores while carrying a digital camera in one hand and murmuring into a microphone. Then, twice a week, like clockwork, he posts a short video on YouTube about his exploits as a neophyte farmer, often highlighting failures or pratfalls. Keeping a close eye on analytics, he has boosted his YouTube audiences high enough to provide a steady advertising revenue of around $2,500 to $4,000 a month, about eight times what he earns from selling farm products. Mr. Gold, 40, has learned the hard way — he tried to take a month off last winter — that any gap in his YouTube publication schedule results in a steep drop-off in audience. So he keeps a running list of themes that could be fodder for future videos. It reads, in part: Should I Feed My Dog Eggs? Don’t Trust This Duck My Homestead Is a Dumpster Fire What Does My Guard Dog Do All Day? Character development works, as demonstrated by Mr. Gold’s most popular video, “Our Freakishly Huge Duck (This Is Not NORMAL),” which, as he would put it, blew the doors off. Slow-motion footage of waggling goose butts, set to a bouncy, whimsical orchestral soundtrack, works. But few things compel audiences, he came to realize, more than a real-life setback. He came to this realization last summer when a mink broke into his duck hutch, leaving its interior spattered with eggs and blood and feathers. “It was one of the most depressing days of my life,” he said, adding, “but at the same time, I’m thinking, ‘How is the audience going to react to this sort of thing?’” The next videos, which featured freaky night-vision footage of the offending mink, helped boost Mr. Gold’s YouTube audience toward the 100,000-viewer threshold. And it helped him understand his own place in the universe of farmer-influencers, which tilts heavily toward the how-to genre. “The storytelling part is what I’m good at,” he said. “I’m not that good at the farming part.” When one of the Golds’ barn cats was hit by a car recently, at least 50 viewers offered cash to cover her medical bills. Late on a recent evening, Mr. Gold was putting finishing touches on a video about his dog, Toby, who has never quite grown into his intended role as a duck herder. Early drafts of the video had focused on how much the dog had improved. But there was something dishonest about that, Mr. Gold realized that evening, as he and Ms. Gold flung themselves around the paddock, trying to catch birds with string nets, while the dog looked on placidly, thumping his tail. Now, in the gathering dark, Mr. Gold was rewriting the ending to one that emphasized his acceptance of the dog’s true nature.

The genealogy site Ancestry has changed hands again, the third time in eleven years. The first time it sold for over a billion dollars; Blackstone just paid 4.7 billion. Gee, didn"t realize family trees could be worth that much. /s A whole lotta DNA results and other private information sold to the highest bidder. What could go wrong?

Is she selling it now after she wore it for over a year?

I'm a country mouse so I don't like cities but I enjoy observing from a distance. Every Sunday I read Metropolitan Diary in the NY Times because the vignettes are interesting and entertaining, and sometimes touching. My two favorites this week: Dear Diary: It was the early ’70s, and we were at our favorite Chinatown restaurant. Our party of five included a former New York City junior high school teacher, Cathleen McDonnell Pietronuto. As usual, the restaurant was crowded, and the noise level was getting out of control. At some point, Cathy stood up. “There is entirely too much noise in this room,” she announced in her classroom-tested voice. Total silence. Then a tentative voice piped up from across the dining room. “Miss McDonnell?” _ _ _ Dear Diary: My wife and I came to New York in November 2002 for my second New York City Marathon. We splurged and booked a room at a boutique hotel near the New York Public Library, where runners board early morning buses that take them to where the race starts on Staten Island. We registered at the desk with an assistant manager, who struck us as the type of well-mannered, middle-age gentleman one might encounter at a traditional European hotel. I made conversation by mentioning the huge number of international runners I had seen. He volunteered that he was from what had been known as Czechoslovakia. We fell into an easy, extended chat about distance running. Eventually, he insisted on personally showing us to the room we had booked on a lower floor. He seemed intent on continuing our conversation. As he pulled our luggage trolley onto the elevator, a twinkle came to his eyes. “I bet you don’t know the name of the greatest Czech distance runner of all time,” he said. Somehow, my usually unreliable memory jumped to life. “Um, yeah, Emil Zatopek,” I stammered. His face lit up, and he beamed with pride. After a moment’s reflection, he spoke again. “The room you reserved just isn’t right for you,” he said. “Allow me to upgrade you to a larger suite on an upper floor.” https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/02/nyregion/metropolitan-diary.html

On WWHL, answering who is the cutest HW couple, Jerry said Denise and Aaron and and added that he wants some Aaron.

Unfortunately, NOAA has labeled this hurricane season as "extremely active." Twenty-four named storms are predicted and twenty-one letters are allotted per season. If it goes as expected they will finish the season using the Greek alphabet. Twelve hurricanes and five major hurricanes are expected, almost doubling what is normal. This could put this season on a par with records set in 2005. (Katrina and Wilma). Isiais is the fifth landfall storm this year, putting the season two weeks ahead of pace.

You kin put on some hills or thra on some sneakers. Also gotta love how she talks about Marly like she is a person. Giant paisley body with bruised or dirty legs. Which is worse, the dress or the pose?

Kool-Aid.

Brandi is an evil, conniving, shit-stirrring motor mouth who strives to come across as an informed source to everyone on her contact list. Anyone (and that includes Denise) who talked to her for 15-20 minutes two or three times a year would be getting full servings of updates that would serve Brandi's current agenda. If she pulls someone in by getting them to react to what she offers up so much the better, another arrow for her quiver. If she uses your interest or response against you, you won't know that until you know it. I think it's entirely plausible to have conversations with someone seldom enough that you don't think of it as staying in touch. "I don't talk to her" (without thinking you need to add "that often") would pretty much sum up the situation, in comparison to the people you talk with all the time. If someone uses your very infrequent conversations against you, to score points with someone else, you won't know that until you know it.

@HighlandWarriorGrl The belly system is available at the company website for what I paid at Amazon - $99. I don't know anything about the shipping cost/speed. The arm/leg belts are out of stock there.

Geese guarding the hen house. Right on.

There would be weeping and wailing, and gnashing of teeth and rending of garments.

Rinna's dinner hair looked like total shit. Kyle and Denise tied for second place shit hair and Sutton came in third. Slicked down hair flatters the youngs in natural lighting and did nothing for Denise or Kyle in that scene. Denise looked haggard and in need of a shampoo, Kyle's slicked back hair and harsh lip color were stank. Sutton's limp, flat hair never does her any favors, she needs a more flattering cut. Dorit and Erika as usual were done up like caricatures. Dorit, thanks to her joolry and accessory fixation, was decked out like a Christmas tree. Garcelle looked stunning, as always. Was Teddi there? LOL THIS is how they presented for dinner in an upscale restaurant in Rome fucking Italy?

When Rinna said [paraphrasing] "Don't put this out here" tonight (or was it in the preview?) the warning tone in her voice was the same as when she turned a wine glass into a shiv. Same flavor and texture, minus the volume this time. What Kim said about the husband seriously bothered her and I think this revelation does as well but she's tamping her reaction this time. So far.

The trip to Rome was filmed in late November 2019. Around that time Sutton twice said she heard the/a rumor two years ago, once in an episode and once in a TH. Two years from when? Was it the "make out in a restaurant bathroom" rumor? Brandi never made it clear beyond "it was before she was with Aaron." That relationship began in the summer of 2017. The alleged hook-up happened in April 2019. Denise was in Mendocino (northern Cali) filming with Patrick Muldoon and Brandi was there to record an episode of her podcast.

I think we're not supposed to speculate too much here or clog up the new thread before the episode airs but I hope I can say that today feels like Christmas Eve and I get to open one present tonight.

The rest of the color values in those exterior photos look accurate/realistic. I know shit from Shinola about color filtering. I guess you can adjust browns without changing blues and greens? Sometimes the siding looks orange and sometimes medium-dark brown. For some reason the interior is nothing I would expect from seeing the exterior.

Definitely very cold. It reaches a point where it begins to register as uncomfortable but it's fleeting and I go back to merely being aware that it's very cold. LOL, maybe that's when the murdering begins. The belt is 8 inches wide and 51 inches long, with a 3x5 inch velcro closure. The gel packs sit in three separate pockets right next to each other, 7 inches wide and 30 inches long altogether. That 30 inches covers the side of my body as well. You wear it any way you want, high or low, backward, sideways, etc. Each pocket has a thick plastic divider and the packs sit on either side of it. You can choose to use the divider as an extra barrier from the cold, that's what I've done because I'm a newbie. Not ready to try the right close position yet. There are smaller belts for legs and thighs, and you could load one or two gel packs in this big belt for those areas. But I'm guessing 51 inches of belt would be annoying on an arm or leg. The reviews and photos on Amazon helped me decide. Didn't check prices anywhere else, just went with Amazon Prime 2-day free delivery. Once I made up my mind I wanted it Now. ETA This process was discovered while studying the effects of frostbite. It was observed that fat cells were either greatly reduced in number or no longer existed in areas of the body that recovered from frostbite and returned to normal. https://isavera.com/
