For these senior citizens, keeping up appearances is simply part of good health. via insightSBS

Seventy-four-year-old widow, Beverley Rilatt-Richardson, entered the dating scene in her 70s and was surprised to discover she still had ‘pulling power’.

“I just saw an 85-year-old patient on her third husband and fifth face-lift,” said Alan Matarasso, the president of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and a clinical professor of surgery at Hofstra University Northwell School of Medicine. Levine remembered treating a patient, one of his oldest, who had come to him with a faintly perceptible break in her tooth. He suggested a partial denture. “‘That’s for old people,’” he recalled her saying. “Well, what about a bridge?” he asked. Nothing doing, she told him. “‘I want an implant.’”98.

Along with the requisite pool and fancy salon, it will offer concierge services enabling residents to order, via the Alexa installed in every unit, massages, acupuncture treatment or reiki therapy as readily as they can call up a Long Island iced tea. Symphony, with a high concentration of locations in Florida cities, offers a less showy brand of luxury. The company is eying boomers. “They are our primary customer,” Abbot said. “They are the ones making the decision to move their parents in.”

Seated alongside her more sedulously understated companions, Harris had an edge. But she had nothing on her splashier counterparts in other cities, a highly visible minority flaunting silver hair and an idiosyncratic fashion sense on blogs and Instagram feeds, eager to shed the inhibitions that many found cumbersome in an earlier life.

As Australians come to terms with last night's election results it's business as usual in CanberraCanberra will be a part-time home to 222 of the incoming members of the 46th Parliament — but for the five federal politicians who live here full time, the contest has been very predictable. same old shit you mean 🤦🏽‍♀️ *bated breath People in Canberra vote for more government and most bureaucrats I meet are huge lefty’s. This is why Canberra is an expensive town to live.

Last night's surprise election result still harbours at least one more mysteryThe election is over, the Coalition has won the most seats. But we don't yet know if it will form a majority or a minority government. Slomo the scum has been planning it for years and the morons fell for it I think the REAL mystery is: What exactly IS the PMs agenda for Australia And how does he plan to achieve it? (Because no one in the media has a clue either !! They never BOTHERED to cut through the sales pitch/spin to tell us ) It’s not a surprise. Ya ll always listen to noise makers. That’s the problem. The real voters don’t talk much or debate online.

Ipsos poll has one real danger sign for Bill ShortenThe Coalition's tactics have paid dividends, according to the election-eve Ipsos poll, but the results need to be treated with the utmost care. Assuming the poles haven't been fudged/seasonally adjusted to get the impression of tightening in the hope of making it real. Sorry, but SloMo's already lost. Sportsbet have already paid out all Labor backed bets... Is that Amanda Vandstone I hear singing in the distant yonder.... Morrison is running as Trump. Trumpian levels of lies and scare campaigns to protect tax loophole for the rich and $77B to cut taxes for the rich even further. auspol ausvotes
