They need to cut out TRT all together.
They need to cut out TRT all together.
Mir was competing in an "arms race" against behemoths like Brock and Carwin and the visible change in appearance over time has been quite glaring....but he's never pissed hot.
Not a fan of TRT, but this is the first(and probably only) time I'm rooting for Mir.
now that we are talking about that one time although he has a "doctor" that has "explained" his use i cant stop thinking of a certain guy named Anthony Bosch - who gave how many athletes PEDs, and said before on multiple occasions he didnt give those players PEDs - and then turns around and works with the MLB to try and build a case against these said players. Doctors are shady, im sure you can find a doctor to cover up pretty much anything you do to your body, and if you have Vitor money im sure it makes it that much easier.
Got a lot of soul searching to do. Sorry to everyone I've let down
I hear ya but there are some issues with what you're saying.
1. Anthony Bosch was not a doctor.
2. Rodrigo M. Greco is a reputable and board certified endocrinologist.
3. Anthony Bosch operated out of a strip mall "clinic."
4. Vitor Belfort money is FAR different from A-Rod and MLB money.
You say shark I say hey man, Jaws was never my scene and I don't like Star Wars
Got a lot of soul searching to do. Sorry to everyone I've let down
I just don't like Vitor. I never really have, he's exciting as hell to watch but i just don't like him. That's why i tend to give other guys more leeway when it comes to TRT. I know it might be viewed as hypocritical but i really don't care.
I don't think TRT should be used in any athletic contest what so ever, but guys are always pushing the envelope of what they can use to give them a competitive advantage. If not TRT it would be something else morally or ethically uncouth, that athletes would use to try to stay in a sport that is so hard their body.
Fav Fighters: Penn, Wand, Fedor, Genki, Shields, Rashad, Pulver, Diaz bros, Melendez.
I love your honesty and it's a breath of fresh air.
I've contended all along that I remember one distinct lesson from training growing up- "Boy, there is no substitute for experience. It's the biggest advantage in any sport."
That statement says a lot about the effect TRT has on sports. To elaborate, it's always been obvious that the young lions have all of the physical ability and advantages of youth. The great equalizer has always been the experience and wisdom of age. Now, through science, any advantage youth had can be offset leading to what I would consider to be an unfair advantage for the older fighter/athlete.
Now, diatribe aside, I have no evidence this is happening and if it's administered correctly (meaning the athlete tests "normal" for his/her age) there shouldn't be too much of an issue. I just see this as being a Pandora's box that should never have been opened. Quite simply, some bodies are simply not meant for long term athletic competition and pumping them full of drugs in order to sustain it shouldn't be allowed.
You say shark I say hey man, Jaws was never my scene and I don't like Star Wars
The UFC is partially to blame in the Vitor situation too. You dont see them hiding any other fighter on TRT in a certain state or country like they did Vitor. You can be against it all you want - as dana claims to be time after time but they put him on cards in Brazil with a shady athletic commission making an already shady situation that much worse and did so multiple times.
Got a lot of soul searching to do. Sorry to everyone I've let down

Lots of couch time meant lots of binding/editing time last week! This is such a fun quilt. I already have my spot mapped out where I'm going to hang it for the holidays. I like that its bright and cheerful without any "Christmas" fabrics, but is still very festive and whimsical with those pinwheels that look like candy.
The quilting was done by Christina and is perfect as always, those tight swirls in each pinwheel totally make this quilt. I quilted the table runner and hot pads…which means don't look to close.
The quilt measures 45" x 45", and the table runner measures 16" x 45". The patterns includes instructions for both and two hot pads. This would be fun in non Christmas colors too…maybe like green and blues? Or brown and oranges? Hmmmm….like I need another project.
The pattern is available in the pattern shop in PDF or hard copy form.

Very good product
By Seeing-eye Guy
from East Nassau, NY
This is a very good product for a single person or a couple who have a double sink. It doesn't accommodate nearly as many items as a counter top dish rack but the obvious pluses are that it doesn't leave a slimy, smelly mess on the counter and it saves counter space. It's better for dishes as opposed to bowls, as are most dish racks. I'm a tad disappointed at how small the silverware holder is. It would be nice if the manufacturer made a longer one or if they added a second one. But all in all, it's a very good product for my needs.

Good Product/Saves Space
By funkybeat
from Deltona, Fl
It works great in double sink and drains water directly into sink. Expandable to fit any size sink. The cup storage is plastic, easy to clean. Silver metal appears durable. I would price point this more appropriately at 18.99. It was a gift for a friend and decided it was worth the splurge.[...]

Dish Rack
By Judy

I just love the way it matches my stainless steel sink. It practically disappears so, never remove. I hope it stays bright & shiny & doesn't rust. I have a dishwasher but there r certain things I always hand wash, especially big pots because they take up too much room in the dishwasher & this is strong enough to hold them.
Nice looking dish rack
By Valley10
from Tennessee
I like the design and the fact that it fits in a regular kitchen sink. The only think I don't like (and that's why it only gets three stars from me) is that the utensils basket is made out of plastic. It should be metal too. Plastic doesn't last.
Just what I needed.
By Patsy
from Bronx, NY
Great addition to my kitchen. I have the double sinks. And this fits just perfect. And with the adjustable sides I just pull them out to fit the sink, and the dish drain just drops down into larger sink without touching the bottom of the sink. I don't need to sit it on the counter top. and it drain's just perfectly into the bottom of the sink. No drain tray needed. And I can take it out when needed. It's stainless steel no rusting. Just the best ever Thank you again Walter Drake. I can always count on you to have what I need.

This thread is full of incorrect info.
The 360 has 256mb of memory for games. Wii U has 2gb of memory, 1gb is used by O.S, 1gb by games. The Wii U has a much newer gpu from 2008, the 360 came out in 2005. It supports shader model 4.0 so it supports lots of nice new effects that the 360/ps3 cannot do. The performance will be significantly better only game engine developers make full use of the new gpu. The cpu clock speed is a little lower than the 360 but apparently the cpu has opencl 1.1 support which means the gpu can do some of the cpu tasks extremely quickly. In other words the graphics will be far better on the wii u over the coming years than the 360 and ps3. Currently the graphics for most games are equal or slightly better. The 360 and ps3 had poor graphics when their games first came out not using all the cpu cores etc so things will get even better with the wii u.

Plenty of devs are building proper PC versions now, so although the games might be built around the 360/PS3s capabilities they can certainly be enhanced for the Wii U.
The problem with talking specs of the Wii/WiiU is that developers don't care.
Apart from a handful of games, either made by Nintendo themselves, or dancing, developers build for the 360/PS3 then port away.. so even if the WiiU had amazing hardware, no one is gonna take advantage of it.

PC's are great, yes, but as I'm finding out now, you can't play local multiplayer which is a bummer. Wii U's (and 360's and PS3's) are all great for local multiplayer which I am missing quite a lot on games like Black Ops 2 and others on PC. If you're looking to play with friends in one place then consoles are the way to go.
Better off getting a good gaming PC, consoles can't compete.
Posted 24 November 2012 - 19:05
All of the current consoles cost less than you would spend on the GPU alone on a PC, that's ignoring all the platform exclusive titles that have never and will never be on PC.

SOUTHAVEN – The results may not have shown it, but Saturday was a productive day for the Starkville High volleyball team according to head coach Lauren Love.
Playing in the Southaven Invitational without the services of seniors Wheeler Richardson, Grace Drumheller and Margaret Allison, who were unavailable as they took standardized tests, the Lady Jackets lost all four of their matches in Saturday's event.
SHS fell in pool play to Hutchinson 2-0 (17-25, 14-25), Horn Lake 2-1 (25-10, 13-25, 11-15) and Center Hill 2-0 (17-25, 14-25) before losing in the quarterfinals to Oxford 2-1 (25-21, 16-25, 10-15).
The defeats dropped the Lady Jackets' overall record to 13-10.
Despite the unfavorable outcomes, Love saw growth from the younger Lady Jackets pressed into service due to the absences of Richardson, Drumheller and Allison.
"We might not have had a winning record (in the tournament), but our program, as a whole, definitely improved," said Love. "We did make entirely too many errors, but errors happen. That just goes along with inexperience.
"We really missed the on-court experience that our seniors provide, but what the rest of the team didn't have in experience out there, they made up for with heart. Our younger girls now know what they're capable of and know what it takes to be competitive."
In addition, Love was able to see her players display traits of endurance and adaptability throughout Saturday's matches.
"The two players that stayed and played the whole round were April (Reese) and Khris (Carr)," said Love. "So an 8th grader and a 9th grader were our foundation.
"Michaela Mills, who is normally an outside hitter, she stepped in and set and did a great job. Jamiyah Covington played all the way around. Stacie Young stepped in and played the right side. Vivian Barksdale played back row. Vicky Vo and Kiana Bridges, they shared the outside positions, front and back row respectively. So it was a great opportunity for girls who haven't really gotten on-court experience that much this season, to get them some playing time."
Statistically, virtually everyone contributed in some fashion.
Against Hutchinson, Carr had a team-leading seven digs to go along with a pair of aces and a kill.
Mills added four assists and three digs in the match for SHS, while Vo had three digs and Reese had four digs and two kills.
Carr continued her solid play against Horn Lake, tallying eight kills, two aces and two digs.
Mills had 13 assists and two kills against Horn Lake, while Reese added five digs, four kills and three aces and Covington notched four kills and four digs.
Young had two kills in the match for SHS as Bridges recorded two kills and two digs.
Facing Center Hill, Carr had three kills, two blocks and a dig, Mills had five digs and a block, Covington had four digs and a kill, and Barksdale had a pair of digs.
In the final match of the day, against Oxford, Mills had 10 assists, four aces, three kills, three digs and a block.
Reese had two aces, three kills, two blocks and four digs, Carr had five kills, six digs and a block, Covington had five kills and three digs, and Vo had five aces, three digs and a kill.
Following Saturday's action, SHS returns to play Monday, hosting district opponent Canton at 5:30 p.m. at the Starkville Sportsplex Gym.

So I normally run Chrome in the full screen, as in the MacOS built in fullscreen mode. However one day I clicked on a facebook image that took it into a fullscreen mode that doesn't have the tabs, address bar, or anything.
I can get out of it easily enough, but every time I open Chrome now it opens in that fullscreen mode, and not the standard one with the tabs and all. It's most annoying. Anyone have any ideas how I can get it to stop that ?
And of course I can't edit the title to say Bug not But lol..

A backyard pool lends itself to much more than the possibility of a refreshing swim on a hot June day. It can also act as a focal point in the backyard, and a sparkling watery oasis to sit next to with a good book. The side of the pool is perfect for decorating with Tiki chairs, fun animal garden statues, and other sculptures. Given the magical role that water frequently plays in fantasy and fairy tales, the backyard pool also acts as an excellent place for displaying enchanting, mystical statuary.
The Asian Dragon of the Great Wall will add an exotic, magical touch to the side of any koi pond or pool. Although this classic Asian dragon is at its best when displayed in an Asian-themed garden, it makes a mystical statement in any backyard.
Aficionados of angel statues will be pleased to know that artist Evelyn Meyers Hartley has created yet another fantastic angel sculpture and this one looks wonderful when displayed near a pool. The Extended Grace statue has long, graceful wings and a bowed posture that complements the gentle waters of a backyard pool or pond.
However, as enchanting as these sculptures are, few can match the mystical character of the Lady of the Lake. Inspired by tales of the powerful British water nymph of Avalon, this sculpture captures her enchanting nature with a semi-veiled, timeless face crowned by a floral garland.

I have a 2010 Toyota Corolla. What is the purpose of the large plastic cover that stretches over my valve cover? Does it have a particular function? Are they just for looks? Or are they designed by the engineers to protect wiring? I believe its called an engine cover. (I bought a car that was missing this piece and I need to know if its critical)
OP, Here's an example of a plastic engine cover on my 2001 VW Jetta VR6:
I can't speak for your car in particular (unless you specify what it is), but in my case it has a number of non-critical functions:
Now, if I were to remove it, I wouldn't be too concerned except for my longer than necessary spark plug wires that I'd zip tie out of the way. However, it does look nice, so if you care about that sort of thing, buy a replacement.
I believe the most common use is noise reduction. As engines got smaller they rev'd higher. The mufflers got moved to the back of the car. No more engine exhaust roar. The result is engine buzz,noise,clacks etc. The cover muffles the injector clicks,belt noise etc. It also just looks cooler to see Vortec, Turbo,SFI .
I have a VW Jetta 1.8T. The factory service manual produced by Bentley (for Volkswagen) specifically calls this component the
That being said, I know many people remove them when they are displaying aftermarket components, or keep their valve cover looking immaculate. I had a valve cover gasket leak up until recently, so my sound absorber is best left in place :)
The covers reduce engine noise and protect the engine from dust, debris, etc, while adding a cleaner look to the engine bay.

Drew Blyth Barrymore (born February 22, 1975) is an American actress, film director, screenwriter, producer and model. She is a member of the Barrymore family of American actors and granddaughter of John Barrymore. She first appeared in an advertisement when she was 11 months old. Barrymore made her film debut in Altered States in 1980. Afterwards, she starred in her breakout role in E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. She quickly became one of Hollywood's most recognized child actresses, going on to establish herself in mainly comic roles.
Following a turbulent childhood which was marked by drug and alcohol abuse and two stints in rehab, Barrymore wrote the 1990 autobiography, Little Girl Lost. She successfully made the transition from child star to adult actress with a number of films including Poison Ivy, Bad Girls, Boys on the Side, and Everyone Says I Love You. Subsequently, she established herself in romantic comedies such as The Wedding Singer and 50 First Dates.
In 1995, she and business partner Nancy Juvonen formed the production company Flower Films, with its first production the 1999 Barrymore film Never Been Kissed. Flower Films has gone on to produce the Barrymore vehicle films Charlie's Angels, 50 First Dates, and Music and Lyrics, as well as the cult film Donnie Darko. Barrymore's more recent projects include He's Just Not That into You, Beverly Hills Chihuahua, Everybody's Fine and Going the Distance. A recipient of a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Barrymore appeared on the cover of the 2007 People magazine's 100 Most Beautiful issue.

Among the Dogon, jewelry often serves as much more than personal adornment. For example, bracelets, rings, and necklaces might signify that the owner is linked to ancestors or spiritual leaders, or identify the wearer as a priest or a caretaker of a particular altar. The two seated figures on this necklace or collar most likely represent Nommo, the original beings created by the god Amma, who may be represented by the central face. The necklace was probably worn by a hogon, an important priest.

Picking a theme for decorating the garden isn't easy. Animal garden statues can add a wild, natural touch to any backyard but classic statuary gives your place an ancient, eternal appearance. Angels are synonymous with peace and magical mischief is associated with garden fairies. Then there are the garden decorating themes that are meant to turn the entire backyard into a veritable work of art. This is one of the goals of an Asian-themed garden and the Japanese garden in particular excels at it.
Carefully placed stones and trees patiently trimmed with expert clippers are vital parts of every Japanese garden but no Asian-themed backyard is complete without a few quality statues. Get the Giant Buddha Monument sculpture for your garden and its peaceful demeanor will emanate throughout the backyard. Buy it from today until July 22nd and get an extra 10% off the sales price.
If the backyard could use a more rotund, happier Buddha, the Jolly Hotei Buddha Statue would cheer up a garden in the middle of a thunderstorm. Raising Chinese gold pieces above his head with outstretched arms and gleefully smiling from ear to ear, this large Buddha statue is supposed to bring good fortune to all who put him on display.
Get 10% off these and other on sale items until July 22nd as part of our Mid-Summer Clearance Sale.

Chemistry seeks to understand our physical world on an atomic level. This microscopic picture uses the elements of the periodic table as building blocks for a vast array of molecules, ranging from water to DNA. But some of the most fascinating aspects of chemistry involve chemical reactions, where molecules combine and transform— sometimes dramatically—to generate new molecules.
Chemistry explores many areas of our physical world, ranging from our bodies and the air that we breathe to the many products of the human endeavor—including art and a plethora of consumer products. Students at Sarah Lawrence College may investigate these diverse areas of chemistry through a variety of courses: Atmospheric Chemistry, Environmental Chemistry, Nutrition, Photographic Chemistry, and Extraordinary Chemistry of Everyday Life, to name a few. In addition to these courses, the College routinely offers General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Biochemistry to provide a foundation in the theories central to this discipline.
Just as experimentation played a fundamental role in the formulation of the theories of chemistry, it plays an integral part in learning them. Therefore, laboratory experiments complement many of the seminar courses.

After a day of Go-Go-Go-ing I love to sit and have some mindless sewing time. No planning or pre-cutting or over thinking allowed. Here are some of the blocks from last night's mindless sewing spree:
Beats me what I'll do with them. Hopefully they'll make their way into a baby quilt after I finish all of my projects that require planning and pre-cutting and over thinking.
Oh and the winner of the Burgundy Buttons Giveaway is #311, Melody-Simple Life in Georgia. I just left a comment on your blog Melody. :)


text: So i fell in Love with the Turtles all over again once I saw the amazing new figures. So of course i had to give them a home! This was a pretty simple build, I had a cardboard box and then i just did some cutting and painting. Don helped out as you can see in the WIP pics, Mike not so much. I tried to give it that original 87' feel to it, like the walls and tv set plus other odd bits (also threw in some 2003 turtledom with the blue couch). I plan on expanding up into the New York streets, especially since im almost finished with a retro-fied Party Wagon that ill put up on here soon enough. Check it out and tell me what you think Shred-Heads! Cowabunga!

Tributes to mum who died just days after giving birth
Last updated at 13:59, Friday, 13 April 2012
A WOMAN who died days after giving birth to her firstborn has been described as "a wonderful young woman with a bright future".
Carly Scott died in Furness General Hospital on Wednesday afternoon.
The 26-year-old gave birth to a baby boy named George last week. She had been discharged from hospital, but later had to be readmitted.
Mrs Scott, née Bailey, married husband Nick last summer.
In a statement, her family said: "We are shocked and devastated by her very sudden death. Thanks to family friends and well-wishers for their continued support and special thanks to all the medical staff involved with Carly's care.
"We would now like to be left alone to grieve in private."
Mrs Scott worked in the planning department at BAE Systems in Barrow.
Work colleague Dave Taylor described her as "a wonderful young woman with a bright future".
He said: "She was a very kind, considerate, loving and respected person. She would have been a great mother. She kept us all updated on her progress while pregnant and was really enjoying life."
Another colleague, Shirley Coyle, said: "She was a lovely, lovely girl, a really beautiful girl inside and out. She could make you laugh no matter how low you were.
"It's a wonder that there weren't any accidents in BAE, as she didn't half turn heads, even in her boiler suit and steel toe capped boots.
"I was arranging my wedding and she rang me with all sorts of websites and people who she had used for hers.
"She couldn't have been any more helpful. She will be so sadly missed."
Lisa York, a friend of Mrs Scott's mum Angela, said: "Carly was one of life's rays of sunshine and always had a smile on her face, she would light up a room with her smile.
"She will be missed by a lot of people. My heart goes out to her mum Angela, her husband and her newborn son. Heaven has got another angel, but taken too soon."
George Nasmyth, interim medical director of the University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay NHS Foundation Trust, which runs FGH, said: "To lose a family member at such a young age is nothing short of tragic and our heartfelt sympathy goes out to Mrs Scott's family.
"It is our routine procedure to investigate all cases like this to identify and, if necessary, act upon any areas where our care could improve.
"We will continue to liaise directly with the family and offer them support wherever we can."
The coroner for South and East Cumbria has been informed.
A spokeswoman for the office said a date had yet to be set for an inquest to be opened and adjourned.

Have your say
Carly and her family came to live next door to us at North Scale when she was about 7 years old. She was a fantastic child, full of fun and visited often. Our hearts go out to her mum, dad and Luke, and cant believe that 'little carly has gone' Life isn't fair.

Experience the real-world behind J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter
Alexandria's Apothecary Museum, located at 105-107 South Fairfax Street, is celebrating Harry Potter's birthday on July 31 with special tours from 6 to 8 p.m. This Apothecary, where "potions" were mixed and sold for 141 years, is full of thousands of curious objects, herbs and remedies! Their elixirs may not have promised luck to the user, but many were considered "cure-alls" in their time.
Visitors will discover the uses for Dragon's Blood, Unicorn Root, Mandrake Root and other mysterious but powerful plants during their tour as they encounter the real-world counterpart to Harry Potter's world. Tour includes a special take-home activity book and hands-on opportunities. Cost is $6 per person.
For those desiring an even more magical experience, the Apothecary is offering an hour-long "Potions and Lotions" program to groups. Visitors tour the museum and then mix their own bottle of lotion to take home. The "Potions and Lotions" tour is open to groups of six more and makes an unforgettable birthday party for kids and 'tweens or unique "girls day out" for teens and adults! Rates begin at $6 a person. To book a "Potions and Lotions" tour or get more information, call 703.746.4739.
The Stabler-Leadbeater Apothecary Museum in Old Town Alexandria is noted for its outstanding collection of medicinal herbs, shop furnishings, apothecary bottles and equipment, many still in their original location. It also has a spectacular collection of archival materials, including journals, letters and diaries, prescription and formula books, ledgers, orders and invoices. The names of famous customers appear in the documents, including Martha Washington, Nelly Custis, and Robert E. Lee.

Like a lot of other segments in our hobby, the legendary 409 is enjoying a new heyday. The beginning was about 10 to 15 years ago when stroker kits hit the scene, punching displacement up to 482 ci. Within the last four or five years, strides have been made with aluminum heads, dedicated distributors, reproduction and aftermarket oil pans, roller cams and roller rockers. Leading the charge since running a blown and injected 409-powered '33 Willys in the early '60s has been Lamar Walden.
From billet blocks to rocker arms, Walden has made just about everything possible for a 409. His most recent venture has been to team up with Bill Mitchell at World Products to develop an aluminum 409 block.
"The problem is that blocks have just about dried up," Walden says. "You can get race or street heads and intakes, billet timing chains, valve covers, crank kits, good pistons, and everything else. The only thing you can't get-and the most important-is the block."
There were originally two factory blocks: passenger car and truck. The truck blocks are the most common, but have a handicap in the form of a large, compression-killing notch cut in the side of the bore. Opinions vary on "The Notch." Over the years, it's been said the notch unshrouds the exhaust valve, which is true. However, the benefit of the unshrouded valve usually doesn't outweigh the compression drop. It's good for a forced induction application, and some race engines. Prices for buildable passenger car blocks range from $2,500-$4,000 (and cracked cylinder walls or water jackets aren't deal breakers), while truck blocks aren't far behind.
As much as we love the '09, we have to be honest and admit there are several shortcomings: The deck is a little on the thin side, making high/race compression ratios, forced induction or nitrous a dicey proposition (flex does bad things to head gaskets). They also have a tendency to pull head bolts out. The area where the exterior of the block meets the deck is also thin-Walden has dozens of blocks that were cracked from running too hot or freezing. (Fortunately, he's developed a method of repair).
And then there are the 409-specific bits that can add hundreds of dollars to a build: oil pan, timing cover, distributor (or spacer sleeve) and harmonic balancer. Reproduction oil pans are in the neighborhood of $300, while original timing chain covers are scarce. And you need the right one, because there are two timing tab locations.

Protection is essential for prolonging the life of your glasses, and that's just what you get with our Zippered Eyeglass Pouch. Sophisticated and sturdy, it gives you a safe place to store your glasses any time you're not wearing them. This Zippered Eyeglass Pouch is perfect for reading glasses with small and medium sized frames. It's designed with top grain leather and has a zipper closure to make sure your glasses stay securely inside. But don't think it's just for eyewear - you can also use it to store writing utensils or other miscellaneous personal items as well! *Please read measurements - most eyeglasses will fit fine, but some sunglasses may be a little large.
Our Saffiano Italian leather collection offers a small crossboard embossed print, creating a texture that tickles the fingers. Boasting a very firm hand feel, this top grain Italian leather is aniline dyed with a hand-glazed finish which really lets the colors shine. It's a nice change of pace from the standard smooth and pebbled textures you find in most leathers and it's our most fashionable leather collection.
This is excellent product, well made, appropriately priced. This is not my first product from Leatherology; they never disappoint. I do have one small suggestion, get your monogram. if you decided against it, they will put "leatherology" in that space. NO GOOD! If that doesn't bother you, you wont be disappointed.
This case is perfect for my sunglasses or eyeglasses. Perfect size, not bulky at all. The leather is so soft yet sturdy. I purchased several items in this order, it was like Christmas when the package arrived. Every item was in a gift box. I'll be doing some Christmas shopping here for sure!
exactly as ordered. very happy with shipment and delivery.
I really like this product. The leather is soft and looks elegant. It's just the right size, too.
Shipment was superfast and the Eye Glass Case was exactly I was looking for: nice leather, not too big- not too small. Case was packed in a pretty box. It looked as a perfect gift. I will do business with this company again when will need a gift for somebody.
Exactly what I was looking for; great quality, color and size.
It is exactly what I expected -- made very well and looks elegant.
Beautiful quality. Easy to access. Just be aware that it won't accommodate larger sunglasses.
Very pleased.I will do business with your company again. Thanks, Darrell
Love, love leatherolology. Have many items. One request...make a hard cased glass case. I am an optican, and know that glasses need to be in a hard case. I see all sorts of breakage to the glasses if not in a good hard case.
Great quality. Great service.
I just love this case for my sun glasses. Very light and very different. Thank you
A lovely little case of excellent quality, exactly as pictured and described. It arrived within just a couple of days, and the presentation box and soft suede wrap were even more beautiful than the picture on the website. I definitely plan to order more items.
Whether you are treating yourself or giving a gift to someone else, we want you to have an amazing and memorable experience. All items will be shipped using our signature gift packaging. Depending on the type and size, your item(s) will come wrapped in our signature microsuede sleeve, drawstring bag or soft velour bag (each with black tie accents), and be packaged inside a high-density bronze gift box. You will also have the opportunity to add a personalized gift note when you place your order.
All of this extra attention to detail is complimentary.
