The success of the Southeastern Conference is worth bragging about at every opportunity.
As far as the first weekend of football goes, it doesn't get much better than what the SEC was able to accomplish out of the gate. The league doesn't appear to be ready to relinquish its standing as the toughest in the country.
The SEC was 9-2 in non-conference games during the first week of the season and out-scored its opponents 438-182. The only losses came when Clemson defeated Auburn 26-19 on Saturday night in the Georgia Dome and when Kentucky lost a 32-14 decision to rival Louisville on Sunday.
Obviously, the most impressive result of the weekend was Alabama's 41-14 victory over previously top 10 ranked Michigan. The Crimson Tide jumped into the No. 1 spot in The Associated Press rankings Tuesday after that showing.
The defending national champion looks every bit the part of having the type of squad that can be holding another championship trophy in January, but there's a great deal more of the season left with many more challenges ahead.
After its home opener against Western Kentucky Saturday, Alabama makes the trip to Arkansas on Sept. 15 for a game of huge importance in the SEC Western Division. It will be the first SEC game televised by CBS this season.
South Carolina and Vanderbilt showed last Thursday what can happen when two SEC opponents go against each other. Most of the time the games are close and competitive. The Commodores were leading the ranked Gamecocks in the second half before Steve Spurrier's squad made plays at the end to pull it out.
Another one of those SEC matchups takes place Saturday morning in Starkville when Mississippi State hosts Auburn.
There will be much more written and discussed on this game as the week progresses, but the Bulldogs need to beat the Tigers if they are to make the type of move desired in the SEC West.
MSU looked very good in defeating Jackson State 56-9, but must carry that momentum into the Auburn game.
A quick start could be just the order of the day because if the Bulldog fans at Davis Wade Stadium have a reason to get excited early, they will make it difficult on the Auburn players.
Road environments in the SEC are as tough as any in the country and Mississippi State has gotten better over the last few season, especially under coach Dan Mullen, of providing the homefield advantage needed to help the Bulldogs win.
At SEC Media Days, Mullen said MSU being able to sell out the stadium has gone a long way in the success the program has achieved over the last couple of years.
"They said if you win, we sell the stadium, but it doesn't work that way," Mullen said. "If you sell the stadium, we win. They started buying into that. You see them now with consecutive sellouts."
Excitement has been building for the Bulldogs after three-straight Egg Bowl victories over Ole Miss and two-consecutive bowl wins against Michigan and Wake Forest.
Imagine what beating Auburn would do Saturday.

Romania's prudent macroeconomic management has enabled a quick recovery from the global financial crisis. Economic activity picked up in 2013 and is forecasted to reach around 2.8% in 2014, driven by the gradual improvement in the domestic demand, led by the private consumption, and by exports, mainly to the EU.

We can hear it already. "How to repair rusty Corvettes? Corvettes are fiberglass and fiberglass doesn't rust!" Right-and wrong. The exterior body panels on Corvettes are fiberglass, or maybe a better way to say it is glass fiber-reinforced plastic, and these plastic panels will not, can not rust. On the other hand, all of those swoopy fiberglass panels are attached to steel inner structures, which are in-turn bolted to a steel frame. And steel rusts.
Corvette frames with rust-through problems, particularly '63-67 and '68-82 (probably due to the design of the side rails and the rear axle kick-up) are, unfortunately, relatively commonplace, especially in the Rust Belt regions. Nearly as prevalent, but hidden away beneath body panels and moldings, is severe corrosion of the steel (internal) windshield pillar and cowl side/door hinge structure on C3s. These structural pieces are nothing but stamped sheetmetal parts that have been spot-welded together to form the cowl sides and windshield framing. They're box sections with open centers, seem to be prone to leakage, and don't drain well. In other words, the perfect recipe for rust.
It must be a heartbreaker to have what you think is a nice, solid Stingray only to inadvertently discover, by having a windshield replaced or when removing molding for a fresh coat of paint, that your fiberglass-bodied car has structural body rot.
Nick Conti runs a high-end autobody and paint facility (Conti Custom Auto, 25500 Joy Blvd., Harrison Township, MI 48045, 586/954-1929) in the Detroit-area. Recently, a customer brought in a lean '71 Corvette coupe for a new exterior paint job. A good quality repaint requires removal of stuff like bumpers, grills, lights, emblems, and moldings-slapping masking tape over them is the shoddy and cheap way to do it. When they pulled the windshield moldings, it was immediately and readily apparent why the car had leaked around the windshield-portions of the inner, steel windshield frame were almost completely rusted away.
This doesn't necessarily mean the kiss of death for a nice old Vette. Since the corrosion had NOT spread into the cowl sides (the door hinge structure), extensive (and expensive) reconstruction or a complete restoration wouldn't be required. Nick was able to locate a solid and rust-free used C3 windshield frame from a local Corvette salvage yard, and that recycled part would allow him to affect a thorough, yet reasonably priced repair.
The keys to a successful repair of this sort are to take careful measurements of the original car, careful measurements of the replacement part(s), more careful measurements, neat and clean cuts, and top quality welding. The difference between a successful repair and total failure is accurate measurements. Close doesn't count; the windshield glass can't be forced back into a frame that's a fraction of an inch too short or angled steeper on one pillar than the other. Precise measuring and cuts, coupled with the labors of a skilled craftsman result in a top-quality repair job. Here's how it's done...

I'm getting very tired with these business practices of removing things from a game to give it to people who buy the Special Collectors Directors Unrated Edition XL Platinum Gold Silver Ultimate Ultra. The physical items sure, that's fine.. but don't give them a more full featured game (even if by a little bit).
So, I get less game because I pay the normal amount for it? Why wouldn't they want everyone to have the full game?
Posted 26 May 2013 - 21:51
I kind of feel people need to get over this idea that all content made prior to release is content that should be in the main game.
Folks, should instead focus solely on whether the value of the content they are getting in the game is worth it, not the little trinkets of content that are not included or "removed". It's largely irrelevant.
Games are a product of their industry, there is no alternative where this game is made & released with all this content in the standard edition.
Posted 29 May 2013 - 15:47
You're the reason 0day DLC exists. They are relying on the fact that it'll become a tired argument so they can do it freely and people will accept it. I don't accept it, I won't accept it, I will never accept it. It's the cancer of the gaming industry and it shows other industries you can get away with basically anything.
People need to make a stand against people like you, who not only eventually come to accept it, but belittle the people opposing it. This continues until all opposition is removed and the content provider gets its way. Well, have fun with your 0day DLC, $500 worth of post-release DLC, Always-on "DRM", and the rest of the crap they keep shoving down peoples throats.... Why? Because people will take it... and then they'll ask for more...
And what does this ultimately say about consumers? Well, the best selling games right now are also the worst reviewed... This is what consumers are. Morons.
I was so excited about GTAV, and I still am, but this has got to stop, and the sad thing about it is I know it won't. I know there is nothing I can do about it but rant here, be forgotten and this crap continues.

Apple officially announced iOS 8 today with a ton of new features, including HealthKit, better notifications and improved iMessages. Many users can look forward to the update coming at some point this fall, but iPhone 4 users will be left behind.
Apple didn't mention which devices would be compatible with iOS 8 during the keynote, but they left a quick note about it toward the bottom of the iOS 8 press release, mentioning that the iPhone 4s, iPhone 5, iPhone 5c, iPhone 5s, iPod touch 5th generation, iPad 2, iPad with Retina display, iPad Air, iPad mini and iPad mini with Retina display would all be eligible to receive the iOS 8 update.
Unfortunately, the iPhone 4 is left out of that list, and we're frankly surprised to see the iPad 2 getting support for the new version of iOS.
It's been rumored that the iPhone 4 wouldn't support iOS 8, and we're really not surprised that it turned out to be true. While it feels like the iPhone 4 was just announced yesterday, it is an aging device that's pretty much on its death bed.
Apple's tradition of dropping support for older devices and discontinuing iOS updates is nothing new. We saw the same thing happen for the iPhone 3GS not supporting iOS 7, so we're not surprised the next device in line is getting the same ax with iOS 8.

My wise Korean friend JungJa and I had a good long talk today. She's lived in this country since she was 19 and has an Anglo-American husband, so she has an insightful perspective on cultural issues. She's concerned, as we all are, about how elders are treated in this country, especially when they move into facilities. Though she didn't understand these things at all when she arrived here, her native country as it modernizes is just beginning to move in a similar direction.
Today I brought up with her how routinely surprised I am that a chunk of the visiting families at my mom's memory care so often seem to have tunnel vision — they can only see their loved one as they walk in for their visit — have no idea what the other residents' or caregivers' names are, how they live, or what they love.
If these visitors lug in a big box of chocolates, a huge bouquet of roses , a squirming puppy, or a cooing infant, they don't seem to notice how many of the residents see them walking in and want (and desperately need) to share in that joy.
There are thankfully always some wonderful exceptions to this who really stand out. Some family caregivers routinely interact with people they come across, volunteer their time to help, and pass their babies and gifts around without a thought — all of which they give more generously and spontaneously than I could ever do myself.
Others do as much as they can — sometimes visiting privately, and other times including a small group or a few closer pals of the resident.
This isn't about judgment, or to make tired caregivers pressed for time feel guilty about not doing more. Quite the opposite, for several reasons. First, my philosophy about people is that almost everyone at any given time is doing the best that s/he can, even if it appears otherwise. Secondly, I've found that when I challenge myself to bring a little extra something from home to share with other residents, my mother and I benefit too. It's less stressful, a lot more fun, and the energy is contagious.
Another major unforseen great gift from this has been that I keep meeting other family members through my interactions with their parents, and we've started to exchange information and create our own little support group (mostly via email). We update each other on each other's parents' status after visits, advocate for needed changes at the facility, and vent privately as needed about the many stressors that surface in the week of a caregiver.
It's been a huge relief for us to know that if we have to go out of town, there'll be at least 3-4 pairs of watchful visitor eyes on our parent, at least for a few minutes. It's made a dramatic difference in their quality of care, too, because any unmet need for the residents we're keeping close tabs on gets reported to the caregivers by any one of us when we're there. And once we got into that habit, we started attending more to residents who have no family. It's a pretty contagious awareness and attitude, and our culture needs it a lot more. Being a bit nosy isn't always a terrible thing!
Though I'm naturally curious about people, their names, and their lives, and do keep up on that information at Mom's place, the sharing of my visits doesn't always come naturally to me. There are times that it just doesn't work, too. Intimate, private visits definitely have their place and benefits, but I'm often left wondering why we as a culture have that tendency to want to hole ourselves up, not talk to other families or residents- keeping both our suffering and our good times all to ourselves.
My friend JungJa calls this the American "shyness". When I asked her what she meant by that, she said that we're so individually focused as a culture that we don't feel other people aren't "our business", and vice versa. As I see it, keeping to ourselves too much is a cultural disease that's causing unnecessary strain on everyone, and endangering our quality of life all around.
When we "look the other way," in our neighborhoods, or in a senior facility, we're denying ourselves and others a greater sense of safety, belonging, and respect — a sense of community that we all ultimately need, like it our not.
Personally, I can be quite an introvert and even a hermit — especially in winter, so I'm speaking from experience when I talk about these isolating tendencies. Probably a big reason why I blog and why I recently just gave in and finally joined Facebook is that I feel best with lots of alone time, but do really want to connect with others.
How do you feel about these issues? What are the small, quiet, or maybe more dramatic ways that you create community as a caregiver for yourself and others?

Marmite 'early Xmas' by Adam & Eve/DDB
To launch its limited-edition Gold Christmas jar, Marmite has released a poster themed along the lines of the brand's "love/hate" positioning. The copyline reads: "Early Christmas adverts. You either love them or hate them."
The festive poster first appeared on London's Oxford Street on a hot day in September.

A new lighter, mobile 30mm ammo linker system is set for delivery to Air Force Special Operations Command units in May.
The 89-pound apparatus that feeds 15 unattached 30mm rounds into MK-15 links via a crank system was created and designed by the Airmen of Eglin's Munitions Materiel Handling Equipment. The MMHE Focal Point, a section under the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center's Armament Directorate, specializes in developing locally manufactured equipment for the Air Force ammo and weapons communities.
"The MMHE receives taskings via the major commands as well as through customer support visits," said Chief Master Sgt. Dennis Tangney, the MMHE focal point chief. "Our Airmen and engineers visit ammo and weapons sections and talk with maintainers and weapons crews. We explain to them how we can develop support equipment and tools that could make their jobs easier."
Those ideas and concerns are defined and passed up the chain of command for approval. If the idea is feasible, cost-effective and to the benefit of the Air Force, a design team begins the creation process on the product.
The initial AFSOC request was for a hand-held de-Linker to easily and safely remove the 30mm ammunition rounds from the links.
"The previous method of using the force of your hands was slow and potentially dangerous," said Tech. Sgt. Mike Stratton, the linker project manager.
Engineers and drafters went to work creating a new product to meet the specific requirements to accomplish the task.
The result became a seven-pound de-linker tool that resembles a very large set of plyers, but fit the 30mm round perfectly. The de-linker reduces the amount of force to remove the ammo to a minimum.
After trying out the de-linker prototype, Stratton and his team received feedback that AFSOC Airmen could use a quicker, deployable way of connecting the ammo into the MK-15 belts.
"We evaluated the linking process at Hurlburt Field, and the ammo troops told us the current machine is too large, expensive , complex and not very mobile," said Ben Chambliss, the linker project engineer.
Again the MMHE developers began designing to meet this new requirement.
MMHE created a new linker that weighed and cost one-tenth of that of the current linker in use. The linker requires no electricity with the use of a hand crank, but it can also be controlled with an electric drill for faster speed. It is 58 inches long and 18 inches wide.
"(The linker) can be tossed in the back of a truck or on an aircraft and taken to wherever it's needed," said Chambliss.
An MMHE project goes through two main phases, the prototype phase and first article phase. The prototype phase is the creation by MMHE and the testing of the designed product by the customer. In the first article phase, another product is created with the changes and corrections provided from the customer testing. The new (first article) product goes back to the customer for final validation. Once it's cleared by the customer and approved by an Air Force safety board for operational use, the blueprints become available to DOD personnel via a secure website.
The linker/de-linker prototypes are already in use by the 27th Special Operations Maintenance Squadron at Cannon Air Force Base, N.M.
"These tools allow AFSOC munitions personnel to support AC-130W and future AC-130J Gunship 30mm operations in a safe and rapid manner at home station or deployed to austere locations world-wide providing outstanding munitions support to the special operations force mission, "Any Time, Any Place'," said Richard McDonald, AFSOC armament systems section chief. "Both tools can stand up to the wear and tear of daily operations at home station or in the field, be locally manufactured and parts can be easily and rapidly replaced as needed."
At any time, the MMHE Airmen have as many as 25 new pieces of equipment in development for Air Force warfighters.

In my 19+ years as a Parkinson care partner/caregiver, the most exasperating and stressful times have been during hospitalizations of my husband. He has been in three different hospitals, two skilled nursing facilities and one rehab/nursing home. I have yet to find anyone on staff — other than neurologists — who knew very much, or at least appeared to know, about Parkinson's disease. In most cases, most didn't seem to want to know. In the "rehab" facility it took four weeks to get all prescribed medications resumed, even though they had written orders from his neurologist. Timing of medications seemed to follow the convenience of the nurses' schedules rather than what was beneficial to the patient. Forget about the recommended spacing between protein consumption and medicine! Of course, there were many other things that were detrimental to his recovery, such as a serious lack in personal hygiene care. When he developed aspiration pneumonia the second time I had to tell the nurse there was a problem; she obviously hadn't detected any changes in temperature, breathing, etc., indicating she wasn't taking his vital signs. When ready to leave the hospital that time I brought him home. The hospital stays were brief, but my personal distress in seeking good care for my husband in the rehab/nursing home lasted over eight weeks. And they professed to be one of the three highest-rated nursing homes in Texas!
Since Parkinson patients are hospitalized more frequently than their peers and PD is so common in the older generation, I don't understand the apparent apathy and lack of knowledge on the part of most medical professionals about problems faced by PD patients. They seem to have little awareness of PD symptoms; the importance of a regular schedule for medications (most facilities have a two hour window in which the medicine can be an hour early or an hour late, meaning you can get one dose an hour late and the next an hour early or vice versa); a lack of awareness that many pain, nausea, and depression medicines are unsafe for people with PD; and that carbidopa/levodopa should not be abruptly discontinued as it may cause a potentially fatal syndrome.
Why is there not a nursing home (to my knowledge) in the huge Houston area that specializes in the care of patients with PD and related neurologic disorders? If there is one or more, and you have personal experience or knowledge, please educate us so we can mention their name(s) when people call in to ask PFHC for a recommendation.
Through all this gloom, here's some wonderful news! The National Parkinson Foundation (NPF) has launched a national campaign, Aware in Care, that aims to help Parkinson patients get the best possible care during a hospital stay. To protect, prepare and empower PD patients before, during and after a hospital visit, NPF has developed a free kit with key information for patients to share with hospital staff during a planned or emergency hospital stay. For details on what this kit contains and how to get it, see "Aware in Care".
Thank you, NPF!
Sarah Malcolm is Editor of the PFHC Bulletin, the monthly newsletter of the Parkinson Foundation of Harris County. Based in Houston, TX, she has been caring for her husband since he was diagnosed with Parkinson's 19 years ago. This article was reprinted from the February 2012 issue of the PFHC Bulletin.

Over the weekend, the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and the National Audubon Society got together for a promotion of the annual Great Backyard Bird Count, which is crowdsourcing data about bird migrations and habitats. The Pasadena chapter of the Audubon Society checked in at Debs Park in Highland Park to count birds and glean information about the avian residents of the Arroyo Seco.
It was a birder's binoculared love-fest and an opportunity for backyard researchers who are interested in finding out more about several species, including the California quail, Allen's hummingbird, Nuttall's woodpecker, the oak titmouse, the wrentit, the California thrasher, the yellow warbler and the spotted towhee.
Staff photographer Mike Mullen was at Debs Park, too, and caught the cool shot at the top. I call it "Out on a Limb."

The No. 21 Mississippi State Bulldogs have wrapped up a 17-game homestand at Dudy Noble Field and now they take the show on the road for the first time this season.
First up for the Bulldogs, who have a record of 14-3, will be a pair of games against Southeastern Louisiana (11-5) followed by the opening of Southeastern Conference play at LSU (13-3).
Tonight at 6 p.m., State takes the field in Hammond, La., to play a very good Lion ballclub, which snapped a Nicholls State's five-game winning streak Sunday, 5-3. Southeastern Louisiana came from behind to plate four runs in the eighth inning and reliever Stefan Lopez came on with two scoreless innings to preserve the win.
The Lions are hitting .276 as a team and are paced by Brock Hebert with a .448 average. Jonathan Pace and Ladd Rhodes follow with .386 and .367 averages respectively.
Hebert leads the Southland conference in batting average, runs scored (20), hits (26), doubles (10) and stolen bases (15) and will certainly be a threat to the Bulldogs.
Southeastern Louisiana starts freshman right-hander Andro Cutura (0-1, 1.86) tonight. He took the loss at Jackson State last Tuesday after surrendering two runs on three hits in five innings pitched. He struck out four and did not walk a batter.
As for MSU, it's just excited to get on the road.
"I'm excited to go on the road and I think our players are too," said Mississippi State head coach John Cohen. "They've been here long enough. Ii is spring break and they want to see something different. I think going to Hammond first is good preparation although Southeastern is a good club. They've won a lot of ballgames this year."
The Bulldogs are coming off a successful 2-1 weekend against Mercer University where they battled injuries and still managed to earn wins over a talented Bear ballclub. MSU got a career-best, 8.1-inning, eight-strikeout pitching performance from junior righty Kendall Graveman in a series-clinching 3-1 Sunday win that provided Cohen with his 100th MSU coaching win.
State enters the week having won eight of its last nine games thanks in large part to saves leader Caleb Reed, who picked up his fifth save during the Sunday win.
"We will definitely split things up on the mound because we want everyone available for LSU," said Cohen of his pitching plans for the midweek outings. "It will be the one inning here, one inning there kind of thing."
At the plate, SEC Freshman of the Week Demarcus Henderson is making a name for himself as he has a team-high eight-game hitting streak in the works while carrying a .414 batting average into the week.
Sophomore shortstop Adam Frazier added seven hits last week and is batting at a .375 clip from the leadoff spot for the Bulldogs.
Freshman first baseman Wes Rea also had a big week driving in six runs to raise his team-best RBI total to 16. Rea (.339) leads the team with five multiple-RBI games.
First pitch tonight and Wednesday is set for 6 p.m.

It's the age-old question that Corvette builders face each time they find a project car that's in less-than-original condition: Do you want to restore it, or build it into something else?
James Pulliam had some help when he answered that question, which came after he found this '72 Stingray.
To call it a "30-footer" would have been way too generous. "It was in rough shape when we got it," says Pulliam of the Vette you can see in the accompanying "before" photo. Even then, he knew what he wanted to do with it. "When we got the car, we had already decided that we were going to throw a late-model drivetrain in it," he says. "Originally, we were going to do a race car, with a rollcage and the whole nine yards. But the project got too expensive, and the car got too nice to put on the track full-time."
By "we," he means himself and his father, Jim Pulliam Sr., a long-time hot rodder in whose shop James received an education on the finer arts of building high-performance Chevys. "I used his shop, and he was out there every day with me," he says with pride. "He's an old-time hot rodder, so that's what he does."
Show-going with his Dad years ago led to one feature on this shark: a cleaned-up engine bay. As the younger Pulliam puts it, "Going to car shows when I was younger, I saw all the show cars' slicked-up firewalls, and I said, 'Why doesn't anyone do that to the Corvette?'" When the two got to work, they found out why in a hurry. "It's difficult to do, but we got it done," says James. "We got rid of all the vacuum [lines] in the car."
With the (seeming) miles of vacuum lines removed, and the engine bay-including the firewall-smoothed, it was ready for the supercharged LS-series engine. Based on an '03 LS1, it features a Magnuson supercharger, LS6 heads, a Comp Cams-ground Lingenfelter camshaft, as well as a Hooker exhaust system that uses 4-inch-diameter side pipes and MWM mufflers. (MWM = "Mufflers? What Mufflers?") Backing it is a Hurst-shifted Tremec T56 six-speed, with a stout Van Steel-built rearend center section holding a rebuilt Posi and 3.73 rear gears. Keeping it fueled are a Rock Valley stainless-steel fuel tank and a high-volume electric fuel pump feeding stainless lines.
Van Steel also provided the tubular A-arms up front, the adjustable composite monoleaf rear spring, and the QA1 shocks at all corners that went on the '72's frame, which was race-prepped (per GM's Powerbook) and painted silver.
Filling the fenderwells, outboard of a set of Wilwood four-wheel discs, are a set of Michelin-shod CCW wheels. "I was looking at Fikse wheels, and [the prices on] those are just outrageous," Pulliam says, so he looked at the more-budget-friendly CCWs. "I'd heard people mention them before, but I didn't understand what they were about. I gave them a call, and they helped me out with the wheels big time. When I got them on I was excited, because they look perfect on there."
Over the big rims and rubber is a C3 coupe body that had a set of ACI L88 fender flares molded in to fit the big rolling stock at each corner. An Eckler's L88 hood was also fitted and made to look OEM by Pulliam's buddy, James Johnstone. Those items are the highlights of the body's frame-off restoration by both Jameses (Johnstone and Pulliam), which also included shaving the door locks, wiper door, and nameplates, and converting the headlight doors from vacuum to electric operation.
Inside, a pair of leather-upholstered Corbeau A4 seats wear Corbeau five-point harnesses connected to a "shark bar." Aftermarket power windows and locks add convenience, and a Vintage Air HVAC system adds cool comfort to the cabin, which was lined with Lizard Skin insulation before final assembly. (The '72's underbody got the Lizard Skin treatment as well.)
The result is a street-driveable shark that's also track ready. "I take it to Palm Beach International Raceway for track days," says Pulliam, who adds that everything on his '72 is track-ready. "I could put a rollcage in it and take it out to the track, or just take it to the track right now without one and have a good time with it. But I'm always a little worried about wrecking it."

Can someone help me please.
I have just received my delixe edition of The Paradigm Shift from Amazon (UK), and have come to find that I do not have any code or reference to the "free redeemable t-shirt" which I was expecting as a part of this purchase.
Do I need to return this to Amazon (UK) or do I need to do something which I am not aware of?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Feeding America designated September as Hunger Action Month, but many local churches have food banks available year round for those in need.
According to a Feeding America report, one in every six people goes hungry in the United States. Food insecurity, where a person does not know where their next meal is coming from, is an issue in every state, but Mississippi ranks statistically higher than the other 49. The United States has a national average of 14.7 percent of households with food insecurity whereas Mississippi has a 19.2 percent average of households with the issue.

Casual yet distinctive, our Timeless collection is one of our favorites. This leather boasts a polished finish and a soft hand feel, making it a great choice for any leather connoisseur. And with the variety of colors it comes in, it's easy to find a shade that appeals to you or matches with your other accessories. As the name implies, our Timeless collection will hold up through years of use while aging gracefully every step of the way.
Please note: textures in this collection range from light grain to a lightly pebbled grain depending on which part of the hide it's from.
Its leather and holds two decks of cards. Its not over sized at all and will close properly. The corners are exposed but I haven't found my cards to be damaged at all while moving them. Worthwhile purchase for those interested.
This is a great product. It protects my decks of cards and looks stylish while doing so. The quality of the craftsmanship is excellent, the packaging was impressive and the included two decks of cards a nice bonus. I highly recommend.
Exactly what I was looking for for our RV! Nicely made and small in size, perfect when space is at a premium. Thank you for your quality products!

I ordered the red leather holder, and it is absolutely beautiful. I give it 10 stars!!
Item was exactly as advertised - nice and compact, excellent quality leather, and arrived promptly. Was the perfect gift for the 'hard to find a gift' traveling buddy!
