"My husband and I have been looking for a second car. Before going to Bowen Scarff we have been to a couple others and walked out. When we walked into Bowen it was a breath of fresh air. We worked with Rick Rickler and we couldn't have asked for a better sales person. This is a no pressure no back and forth kind of place. Rick was extremely helpful, kind, and made everything so easy for us. It took us a total of 3 hours to find a car and get thru financing. If it was a typical car dealership you would be there all day. They stand by their no dickering motto and love that. We found a great car for a great price and to top it off Rick made sure it had new tires put on it. Thank you Rick for making this purchase so easy for us and for making it a fun experience instead of stressful. This will be our dealership from here on out. We had our 2 small kids with us and they were also treated great. Rick gave them candy, they had a t.v. to put cartoons on and they also had games to keep the little ones busy. I will definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a car. "

Natural Cures for Blepharitis
Last Modified on Sep 10, 2015
Blepharitis is generally a very uncomfortable eye condition; however, you can treat it. Castor oil, coconut oil, and tea tree oil are three of the best natural cures, but there are other effective options.
What Is Blepharitis?
Blepharitis is a condition that involves inflammation of the eyelids. The inflammation is generally caused by an infection that results as a malfunction in the oil glands located at the base of your eyelashes. If you have blepharitis, you'll likely experience a variety of symptoms including watery or red eyes, a gritty or burning sensation in your eyes, itchy eyelids, greasiness in your eyelids, crusting of your eyelashes, and light sensitivity.
Can I Treat Eye Inflammation Naturally?
We advise at least seeing a doctor to determine the cause and severity of your condition; however, following diagnosis, you can typically treat blepharitis naturally. Castor oil, coconut oil, and tea tree oil are a few of the best natural remedies for blepharitis; however, there are a variety of others as well. It is also important to keep your eyes clean and to apply warm, moist heat to them each morning and evening.
1. Castor Oil
Castor oil is an effective treatment to relieve inflammation in your eyes. This treatment option also helps relieve itching, irritation, burning, and pain associated with the condition. To use this remedy, apply the oil all over your eyelids and eyelashes using a cotton ball or soft swab. You can also add a couple of drops of the oil to your eyes to prevent crust formation. The best time to apply this treatment is at night right before you head to bed.
2. Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is instrumental for treating pain and irritation in your eyes. This oil contains a variety of nutrients including fats that help restore eye health and reduce inflammation. To apply this remedy, soak a cotton swab in the oil and place it on your inflamed eyelids, leaving it there for approximately 20 minutes. Try to apply this treatment at least 2-3 times a day to prevent flare-ups in your symptoms.
3. Tea Tree Oil
Tea tree oil helps treat the underlying cause of blepharitis as well as your symptoms. This option also helps reduce inflammation and itching. To apply this treatment, you will need to dilute the tea tree oil by mixing a couple of drops of tea tree oil with a couple of drops of vegetable oil. Then, soak a cotton swab in the oil and place it over your eyelid for 15 minutes.

04/13/2012What a frustrating condition! I was a fool when I was younger and used an incredibly strong product to remove my eye makeup and oh, it did the job! As well as beginning the onset of my insanely frustrating issues with blepharitis! For at least 3 years I struggled with this condition and the only thing that I could find to clear it up was a prescribed topical, but it would only last for a short while before coming back full force. I tried everything! It wasn't until I was doing research and saw some info about baby shampoo being gentle and helping out people with this condition. I had already tried everything and was willing to try anything else, so I gave it a go and it was wonderful! I not only washed my eyelids with baby shampoo daily, but I moisturized my eyelids and the skin under my eyes with baby lotion right afterward. Sometimes I use different variations of the lotion, like the night-time baby lotion or I'll mix the creamy baby oil with the baby lotion and use that.. But I always make sure to use a baby lotion product and it's absolutely fabulous! It has been at least 5 years since I've had to deal with blepharitis! I continue to incorporate the baby shampoo (which removes eye makeup like a charm by the way! ) and lotion into my daily regimen. Other than it keeping that horrible condition away (which is enough reason in itself to use the baby products) - I attribute it to my lack wrinkles around my eyes when all of my friends my age have them. I hope this combination helps someone else out there as it has me! :)

08/11/2013I completely back up the baby shampoo comment. I use coconut oil, though, and take particular care to not put any of my other skin regimen on my eyelids. Before the shampoo, coconut oil, hot compresses, and occasionally topical antibiotic mixed with cetaphil soap- my eye-lid was SO bad that even philosophy miracle worker burned it. I remember a scab on my eyelid. It was so bad that I had to stop my latisse. Any one with this problem should try any and all of the above remedies, along with the other posters suggestions.

01/02/2014I have been dealing with this since October. I had it years ago and it never got past redness part. I felt like I had something in my eyes, they burned, when I cry it makes it worse so I don't cry and believe me I would like to! It started in one eye, then went to the other and now both. Some days it feels like it is going away and the next its back.
I have oily eyelids, flaking and then peeling gross skin off my eye area, redness, soreness, itchiness, eyelashes here and there fall out and an ache or pain in my eye.
My Dr. gave me at first eye drops, ointment, but it didn't seem to clear and then I went on an oral antibiotic and just did the ointment and I have OTC drops. I went back 2 days before Christmas and he said looks good, the next day I started getting tough skin in the eye area and then it flaked and peeled off and it was gross. I am on a new eye ointment and one oral antibiotic a day.
I have too much going on I don't need another issue. I think that is all for now. I know now I am not alone, but it still stinks.

01/05/2014I use an eye ointment at night now. How am I supposed to use the castor oil or the honey? I just find it strange putting honey there. How do you do it and how much? I am fed up with everything. The other day I thought it was clearing and then bam! It is back. My skin is tight again and it is going to start to peel. This isn't a way to start the New Year off.

01/10/2014Okay I saw my eye Dr. again the other day. I was told that this blepharitis has to do with the weather and that it is common. Why do I get all this crappy stuff? I was told to use the Systane drops a few times a day and to use the Tobramax (I think I spelled it right) all around my eyes. This thing has got me so irritable and moody and I can't cry because it hurts! I don't know if I can post pics here or not and don't see a link. I told someone I feel like/look like a reptile zombie. It is all red, sore, peely/blistery and I look horrible! I want it to ease already. :-(

01/11/2014Hi Kerri, I don't know if your medication has steroids in it, but if it does or if you have ever used a product with steroids in it please do a search for "international topical steroid awareness network", their forum has a section on steroid induced eye irritations, or "topical steroid addiction", or "topical steroid withdrawal". Good luck.

01/11/2014This is what I am on; TOBRADEX? (tobramycin and dexamethasone ophthalmic suspension) is a sterile, multiple dose antibiotic and steroid combination for topical ophthalmic use.
Between what I read online and what dr's say or don't say I get scared. I am not feeling good on top of this today. I am beginning to think my obgyn could help me better!
I don't see the email to send photos.

01/12/2014Hi Kerri, can your doctor offer you a non-steroid medication? Some people are very sensitive to steroids and have a very bad reaction. Unfortunately, most doctors will not acknowledge that steroids are not a wonder drug for everyone. Please search and read about other people's eye experiences with steroids. You may or may not identify with what you read, but if it is a bad reaction steroids it will only get worse as long as you use the steroids. Think back to what ointment you have used around your eyes - did it have a steroid in it? From what you posted it sounds like a bad reaction to steroids. I think you should look into this possibility. There is a usually a long healing period with multiple flares where you get worse again before you get better. Good luck!

03/13/2014[YEA] I just read an Article on Google about a man who had this condition for 8 years. Well, I've had mine for 1 and its so painful and irritating hurts, well this man cured it in himself with... guess what it is? Honey. So I'm all for natural treatments and in Australia I'm learning about the aboriginal cures they work so I'm looking into plants also natural but mananuka honey has in fact got an antibacterial ingredient in it. Any honey, but pure is better the "mananuka" tree or flower in Australia, has the quality, if it worked for him it will work for me, I'll get back to you guys on what works, ok? But the honey twice a day I'm trying, he said that he cured it, 100% and he looks happy. Thank you.

01/04/2015[BETTER BUT NOT CURED] I am suffering from this condition for 3 years. My current own therapy is:
-face wash and warm compress 10 minutes (when I wake up)
-ordinary honey on lids 10 minutes, face wash, lid cleaning with q-tip (15h and 19h)
-face wash and warmcompress 10 minutes (before midnight)
-castor oil (2 drops) mixed with tea tree oil (1 drop), before I go to sleep, around midnight
It's better but not cured, will keep doing this for few weeks. Will try manuka honey if this fails, and/or get another oil instead of castor (coconut, or fish oil with omega supplements)

It is called Bleph EX, the doctor cleans your lids under microscope with a special tool. You will get your before and after pictures, the difference is astonishing. I am symptoms free and finally not embarrassed by my appearance.

[NAY] I tried putting castor oil in my eyes for a couple weeks. At first, I thought it was working, but then my eyelids became puffier. Very sad this did not work, because at first my eyes themselves felt so much better. I am 43 and I thought I was relatively healthy - not on any prescriptions, but for some reason I have not had any luck with getting rid of this blepharitis/dry eye issue. I even moved from SW Colorado to Eugene, OR for more moisture! I may try the castor oil again, but would love if someone would post additional remedies - homeopathy, herbs, etc. Also, my blepharitis is just redness, I can't see any scaling, but it does cause red, dry eyes.... doesn't help that I am a computer programmer.

02/10/2015[YEA] Maryalice, how weird. I live in SW Colorado and am moving to Oregon soon to be near 2 of my kids. I just got Blepharitis the first time last year and today is the third time I've had this annoying condition. I keep it at bay by using a lotion I have with tea tree oil as the main ingredient. I went to Arizona over the weekend and did not bring my lotion. Guess what I woke up to Monday morning?
[YEA] I have tried the hot towel method with no results. It is too hard to maintain the heat and moisture at the levels needed. What I have found effective is using castor oil; I found a good video on youtube that elaborates.

12/11/2011[YEA] I also had terrible eye pain-mucus, redness, unbearable itchiness.... I thought it was pink-eye, except for it lasted 11 days!! So I finally saw an opthomologist who diagnosed me with Blepharitis (super irritated angry eyelids that don't produce enough oil).
The eyedrops he gave me worked alright; but my eyes would still "flare up" and become extremly irritated. My eyes always seemed to have a red tinge to them-which really really annoyed me.
I tried castor oil, and after only a few nights it seemed to provide a lot of relief! I use a cotton swab to dab the oil on my eyelids, and drop a few drops into my actual eye before bed. It does blur your vision a bit, so before bed is the best option.

01/20/2014(I hope folks are not using drugstore castor oil processed with hexane. Hexane can cause blindness so everyone be sure to use only hexane free castor oil from the health food store or online.)
Castor oil has only very slightly helped my eyes. I've noticed that my symptoms are usually held at bay while I'm wearing foundation and either putting fresh foundation on before bed usually works at keeping it under control. However, this winter it's been worse than ever and so I've been washing with baby shampoo and using psoriasis lotions very lightly around my eyes (burns like the dickens for a few minutes) which helps tremendously but hasn't completely relieved it. I've also noticed when I eat fungus promoting foods like I did last night, it's absolutely horrible by morning (no matter what I put on my eyelids before bed) with much more redness, swelling, itching, burning etc than usual. Those foods would be sugar and grains for starters. I had popcorn and chocolate last night and I'm paying for it this morning!!

[YEA] I recently came down with an eye infection. At first, I assumed it was Pink Eye but my actual eyeball was not red at all. There was swelling from the inner corner of my eye to the middle of the lid and my eyelid was pretty red. By the next day, my eye hurt really bad whenever I blinked. When I realized it was probably Blepharitis, I put coconut oil on it. I did that only trying to keep the scales from forming on the lid. Some of the pics I saw online were disgusting and some of the people had major crust forming around the lashes. I figured that coconut oil would probably keep the skin from collecting.
To my surprise, I found that as long as the coconut oil was on my lid, there was no pain. I never saw any scales form and within 2 days, my eye was not swollen anymore. You have to keep putting the coconut oil on (2-3 times a day), you will notice when it dries because your eye will be itchy and will hurt again. So happy it worked!

I've suffered with this condition for a year, the warm compress, massage and cleansing doesn't seem to do any good at all, I hate having to look at people because I know my eyes look so bad, 2 months ago, my doctor prescribed me a weeks course of doxycycline, an antibiotic, before the week was up, my eyes were back to normal, I was so happy and relieved, but the condition has gradually started to come back, I did some research, and it is recommended that a 100mg capsule a day be taken for 1 month, then a 50mg capsule a day be taken for 2 months. Am going back to the doctors, will let you know how I get on.

[YEA] This is not my cure but I found it tonight and wanted to share.
I no longer have Blepharitis. There is a cure.
Benzethonium Chloride is the medicine in the products that get rid of Blepharitis. It is found in the antibacterial hand wipes known as WET ONES. It comes in a red box. Walmart or drug stores or grocery stores here carry it. I checked on the internet to find what products Benzethonium Chloride was in. You may have to order from a drug store on line if you can't get it there.
Let me explain how I got rid of it. I tore each hand wipe into 8 pieces and rubbed each eyelash are twice-4 times a day to start. After a week or two I went down to 3 times a day. After a month I went down to 2 times a day for several months. This is an infection in the roots of the eyelashes. Putting medicine in the eye doesn't do much. I tried 3 times with antibiotics. Did nothing.
When a friend said she got rid of it I jumped on it right away. She had it going up her eyelids.
Two people have gotten rid of this horrible itching. It is not a hit and miss thing. I kept at it for 3-4 months and it is gone.
The 3 Dr.'s who looked into my eyes tried to find it and couldn't. One was the Dr. who gave me the prescriptions for antibiotics and diagnosed the Blepharitis. This is not just a temporary relief thing I am writing blogging about. I learned how to blog to try to help others learn about the way to get rid of this infection in the eye lashes. The Dr.'s didn't seem to be interested in a cure. I did blog on one Dr.'s comment and he was interested and wanted to know if I washed my eyes off after using the wipes. I told him no I did not.
There is no need to suffer with this when there is a cure. Please be diligent and work at it for the 3-4 months. You do start to feel better. When I was done it itched once or twice and I used the wipes and it was gone.

I tried the Wet Ones trick and yes it worked for a while to get my puffiness down, but it actually started to make my eyes worse after a while. The ONLY thing that has provided me some sort of relief is Blephamide Ointment that you put in your eyes.
It would be best that you also include that the Wet Ones tip may only work for a while for some.

One thing to bear in mind is that there is a strong possibility that our bodies will develop a resistance to this treatment. If you do find that this happens, the Manuka Honey &/or tea tree solution are extremely effective as well.

06/10/2015[YEA] I have had blepharitis since 2009. My tear ducts plugged with yellow waxy substance and were inflamed, red, painful, and runny. I daily removed strings of pussy mucous from my eyes. I just wanted to close my eyes and not open them again. I read Posted by Ophelia (Dana Point, CA) on 08/07/2014 about Wet Ones wipes and followed her advice. Today after 4 months of using them I went to the ophthalmologist. Seven or eight times he used words like pristeen and stellar when describing the condition of my eyelids now. Midway I did go through a crisis that it wasn't working. But I stuck to Ophelia's recommendation to treat my condition for a full 4 months with these wipes and diluted baby shampoo washes. I did find that I needed to moisturize my eyelids and surrounding areas once a day. But from what was a great suffering to being apparently cured, I am so grateful for the advice to use them. My doctor told me to just go to cleansing my eyes with the shampoo once a day. He didn't see any need to do any more. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I am 73 years old, what a relief! $6 cure! Judy
Histamine Allergies 0 0
Blepharitis can be caused or exacerbated by histamine allergies. Foods that are high in histamines are: alcohol, aged cheeses, fish, tomatoes, and bananas. The body uses an enzyme called DAO to process excess histamines in the body; alcohol inhibits the production of DAO. So if you have chronic blepharitis, try not drinking alcohol for a while. You can also minimize consumption of foods that are high in histamines. There are also DAO supplements you can take. For me, not drinking alcohol and taking the DAO supplements has allowed my eyes to get back to normal. I also plan to use the other suggestions in here for keeping my eyelids clean.

08/31/2015Hey everyone!
I've had blepharitis for a few years now. When I was first diagnosed the symptoms were bad and of course my nurse wanted to put me on medication. I don't believe in conventional medicine unless necessary and prefer natural remedies. So I never really tried doing anything about it other than polysporin. It didn't work but I didn't realize it can be a chronic condition. It seemed to improve on it's own.
The only thing I do is use sunflower oil to remove make-up. Maybe it helps. But when it flares up it's embarassing, so I wanted to find natural cures. You guys have a lot of good tips! It's great to share info and your own success stories. I'm definately trying some raw honey. I don't know if I can get the other honey mentioned.
Also just one tip- my mom thinks it's better to heal your body from the inside out. I've seen another tip about taking omega 3 fatty acid supplement. I would say it's better to simply include more food in your diet that's rich in this nutrient. I hope this may help.
[YEA] Yes the honey works brilliantly for blepharitis. We treated my father-in-law with honey drops and they succeeded in keeping it completely pain and irritation free. His belpharitis was connected to his glaucoma and he was told he would always have it. He was given many different types of eye drops from the hospital, non of which worked, so the honey was a blessed relief for him. I would heartily recommend it.
You could try both. Put a little bit of the honey wherever you have irritation. You can also dilute 1 teaspoon of the honey in a Tablespoon of warm water and use that as drops. I would use purified, filtered or distilled water, if possible.
I hope you have relief soon!

04/08/2014I have been diagnosed with Bleparitis. Only one eye. Warm compresses and eye lid scrubs are not working. I was using antibiotic/steriod ointment for one week and it appeared to help, but off of it for one week and it is all red, irritated and swollen again with tearing now. Doc keeps saying the same thing over and over. I can't even go to work it hurts so bad. I see that folks use coconut oil and honey to help. Mine is in the inside of the eyelid, so it involves the oil gland. I am also on a lot of flax seed oil. There has to be a better way!

04/11/2014[YEA] Hi Meiday,
Do you have allergies to dust, outdoors, grass, pollen etc.-- meaning airborne allergies? You should see if that is the cause. I have had airborne allergies all my life and then about 3 years ago I developed blepharitis in both eyes, which was due to my allergies. My eyes were burning, peeling, crusty, wrinkly and made my eyes droop. It was horrible! I tried castor oil, that made it worse for me. I kept changing out washcloths and even put frozen foods on them hoping it would help the burning, but it didn't. I also used an eyewash they sell at the drugstore, but that didn't matter either. Somehow I finally stumbled on MSM pills and after 3 days I was better. I bought MSM pills (it's the sulfur content) from CVS (1000mg per capsule), took 2 capsules 3 times a day, and that helped completely-- no more burning eyes! And then for the crusty, flaky, droopy part, I just used Cetaphil face lotion, just something really moisturizing, and really piled it on at night, and that took care of that. After about a month or two, I reduced my dosage to 2 capsules 1 time a day. I still take this dose today everyday on an empty stomach in the morning with some water and it keeps my blepharitis away. If for some reason I don't take it for a few days, my eyes start to feel the burn. Also, I had read that MSM and Vitamin C works well when taken together, but this wasn't so for me. For some reason for me, the Vitamin C canceled out the effects of the MSM, and made my eyes burn again. So I suggest that you take the MSM on an empty stomach with water, and not with orange juice or any kind of Vitamin C. Good luck!
Hello Meiday,
Re your eyelid condition;
On this EC website, if you look under Ailments, you'll see the introduction which states the cause of Blepharitis is a bacterial or viral infection that impacts the oil gland of the eye lid.
In that case, assuming an infection is the cause; if me, I'd consider applying Colloidal Silver to eye lid using an unscented handkerchief. I do this three times daily for four or five days. If improved in a few days, I'd continue until infection resolved.
I use CS when I get Pink Eye; two drops in each eye, twice daily for two days. Knocks out PE quickly...at least for me. So even if I get a bit of the CS in the eye when applying to eye lid, I know that won't hurt the eye.
Manuka Honey 2 1

[YEA] So, my wife, Julie, has been dealing with blepharitis for 14 months now. It started with a flaky, itchy rash (like eczema) on her upper eyelids and then it spread to her lower eyelids. It would also cause her left eye to water and tear up. She went to an allergist, a dermatologist and a esthetician to seek treatment. She tried creams, ointments, steroid creams, air purifiers (in case it was caused by an airborne allergen) and vitamin therapy. On a few occasions, it went away and then came back even worse. Needless to say, she was getting enormously frustrated that this condition might go on forever since nothing that the doctors prescribed was working.
I started looking for alternatives for her and came across a few people touting the claims of Manuka honey. The more I read up on it, the more I was convinced that it might do the trick. We went to Whole Foods and bought the most potent manuka honey we could find (+16). A higher number means higher potency. It was an expensive jar of honey, and if we were going to eat it, it would be nuts, but this was medicine. Julie put it on for 10 minutes at a time and left it on lightly overnight and, after one night, the upper eyelid inflammation and rash was GONE! After 48 hours, the entire thing was gone. She burst into tears after the first morning and is just absolutely stunned by how fast it worked and how effortless the application is. No side effects, no danger of a chemical in the eye...just all natural pure manuka honey did the trick.
If you are in that same boat and nothing is working for you, I highly recommend that you give Manuka Honey a try. It's really a miracle cure for this condition.

In the beginning it was better, I really hoped that I got rid of blepharitis, however, after 4 days it became worse. I put it on my lids, 3 times a day for 10 minutes, than wash it, and before bed time without wash. Maybe that was too much, too often, so now I will try only with over-night aproach for few days. Every therapy started great but ended bad. Guys, do you have seborrheic skin? Should I put some honey or tea tree there too?

[WORKED TEMPORARILY] I too am suffering this horrible ailment:( About 2 years ago, after about a year of washing lids with baby shampoo & my hair & eyebrows with Head & Shoulders on the doctors advice, I was finally referred to a consultant at the hospital. He prescribed a 3 month dose of an oral medication that was originally used for the treatment of acne & rosacia. I was desperate so agreed to take it. 1 tablet in the morning 1 at night, easy. Amazingly within a week it had completely gone! I never needed to do the ridiculous time consuming washing procedures.... Until now! As I say, it's now about 3 years and I am temporarily in Spain. My eyes have got worse again. Very swollen lids and very red. My whole right eye was completely red, it looked as though I had been punched in the eye it was that bad. I went to the pharmacia who very willingly gave me an antibiotic eye drop. I knew this was not going to help the lumpy red eyelids but after 2 days it has got rid of the redness of the eyeball.
I have also tried honey with some success but it always comes back again. I think Manuka honey may be my next course of action. I have noticed that when I swim in the swimming pool here, with my eyes open, almost swishing my head around to wash my eyes with the water, they are always much better for about a week. Maybe it's the chlorine that temporarily eases it. Also, swimming in the sea does help, again it's probably the salt. But, it never goes away. It can be so debilitating some days. Thankfully I can wear my dark sunglasses through the the day, but am going back to England soon. Another appointment with the doctor! I will also try the tea tree oil, again.
Hopefully someone will come up with a cure for this horrible illness.

Sea Salt and Coconut Oil 1 0

[YEA] I have suffered from blepharitis on and off since 2007 and it has been such a pain. Red, teary eyes, itchin' like a b*tch. This last bout has been the worst.
I'd been thinking about real, natural salt without additives being a great cure-all, and I wanted to try this on my condition. At this point, I was willing to try anything.
I dissolved a teaspoon of Sea Salt in a cup of lukewarm distilled water, and used this as an eye bath. At first, I did it 3 times a day. After about 5 days, I reduced that to twice a day, and then after several more days I noticed I'd forgotten to do the eye bath in the morning. My eyes were 90% itch-, redness-, and tear-free! The eye bath burns a little, but not bad. It's just like swimming in the ocean. ;)
This morning I did the eye bath again 'cause I felt some itching, and it quickly made it go away. By the way, this is important: after the salt water eye bath, I let my eyes dry for a few minutes and then apply VIRGIN COCONUT OIL to my upper and lower inner eyelids. I simply dip a Q-tip in the coconut oil, let the excess drip, and swab my lids gently. I only use 1 Q-tip for both eyes (one end per eye). It makes your vision blurred for about 15 minutes, and then you see clearly again.
As a side effect, I also found that my eyelashes had become freakishly long! I believe it's the coconut oil that's responsible for this.
At present, I would say my blepharitis is under control with the salt water eye bath and coconut oil method. Try it--it might work for you!

07/29/2014Beautiful. Thank you for posting this. The salt water makes sense, since blepharitis is caused by bacteria, and salt kills bacteria. I think WARM salt water would be best, since the heat helps the circulation, and that helps get rid of infections too, and warmth is known to help blepharitis. I'm wondering if it might be a good idea to rinse off the salt water with plain distilled water after the treatment. I don't know...I'll try both ways. I'll use Celtic salt, which is really high quality. Regarding your long lashes, it may be from controlling the bacteria. My eye doctor told me my eye lashes have fallen out as a result of my blepharitis. You used your creativity. Bravo. I'm going to try it.

The itching has subsided anyway, and I'm so happy I've got this thing managed.

04/28/2015Brilliant, the salt-method. My eyes were flaring up badly today and nothing really helped to relieve the stinging and redness around my eyes. Since I always get rid of throat pain by deep gurgling with a sea salt solution, your suggestion made perfect sense to me. It made me actually want to swim in the ocean. Maybe beach vacations are the super cure for Blepharitis and the soul :)
I soaked two cotton balls in the warm solution and carefully cleaned the entire eye area. Then I soaked two new cotton balls, squeezed the excess water out a bit and laid down for ten minutes. It faintly tingled. No rinsing afterwards, but a generous application of organic Manuka Honey cream to moisturize.
Since this is the first time doing it, I can't vow for future results, just yet. My eyelids are still bright red and swollen, but finally there is no stinging or discomfort anymore right after the treatment.
Let me continue this for a few days and see if the redness and swelling will go down. Not to be in pain right now is a very welcome change. Of course, I hope the salt/Manuka routine will eventually transform me into my normal self.

Subdued vibe
We had easy access to friends and cultural events on this side of town: Pasadena, Getty Center, Skirball Center, Brentwood, Coldwater Canyon. Rooms are comfortable if a little subdued in style. It would be lovely if the Amarano had a pool.
BeaBea's across the street has a nice weekend brunch scene.
Great Place
Nice little hotel with clean large rooms. Had a loud party in next room, but they were on their porch area, when they went into room noise was quieter. Wasn't told about the valet only parking with a daily charge of $29 plus tax.
Short drive to Universal Studios and Hollywood Bowl.
Like Coming Back Home
This was my second stay at the hotel within a month and again, I commend this hotel. It is warm and comfy as though you're coming back home especially after a whirlwind day of sightseeing, shopping, or just being on the road for hours. Love the
decor of the rooms.
Unfortunately the front staff does't quite generate the same feel of the rooms although the valet and restaurant help are great!
Los Angeles is full of nice restaurants but they aren't located near this hotel . . it's a short drive (15-30 minutes away). I'd prefer to stay away from all that hustle and bustle anyway.
it was good
Pleasant, Inobvious
Small, interesting hotel. Tasteful, well appointed room (Deluxe) with kitchenette (refrigerator, sink, coffee machine, microwave.) Staff was quite helpful with all requests. Intimate pool and jacuzzi on the roof. HDTV, clock radio (docked w/iPod).
Walk to restaurants. Bank, grocery and drug store across the street. Near Warner Bros and Disney/ABC. Fairly late check out (12:00P). Only drawback, no self parking unless on street, leaving pricey valet as only option on hotel grounds.
Walk south over the freeway to restos/coffee.
Why Burbank??
Very easy access to the 101 and you're in Hollywood in 10 minutes but have the quiet safety of a good neighbourhood. Great food options 1 minute away on Riverside, studios 5 minutes away. Always a well finished small hotel, only constant concern,
staff always slow to respond to requests.
Riverside - Japanese, Health, Diner...
Nice getaway
The staff was welcoming and friendly when we arrived. The pool was small but very nice. There were people visiting from all over the world. I was surprised at how many children were at the pool. The room was fresh and comfortable. Lots of fun
things to do in walking distance or a short drive. The only drawback was my cell reception it was low to null.
Sardo's is across the street. Relaxed place to grab a drink and enjoy karaoke.
Nice Burbank Hotel
I had to travel to Burbank for business and this hotel was very convenient, comfortable, and clean.
Upscale Burbank Boutique Hotel
GOOD: The Amarano is a really classy hotel with an elegant bar/restaurant/lobby. My basic King had plenty of space and a fridge, microwave, cook-top, and disposal. The room prices are low for the category, and the hotel had many young people. The
pool is attractive. 24 hour room service.
NOT SO GOOD: The walls are very thin. The party in the room next to mine kept me up both nights. I called the front desk after 3am on Sunday morning and within a few minutes I could hear their phone ring and then they were quiet enough for me to get back to sleep. The pool is very small and after about 4pm there is no shade at all, except for the cabanas available to rent for $100/4 hours.
mini vacation
It was great. Staff was great everything was good.

Smartphone Universe
With the launch of the Galaxy S4, Samsung not only raises the bar on smartphone capabilities, it blasts it into another universe. Sure, software is much of what makes it soar, but Galaxy S4's hardware also runs circles around Apple's stalwart smartphone.
Regardless of how the solar winds blow, Samsung's latest iPhone-killer has seriously upped the ante for all smartphones, and it delivers features that a few years ago were the stuff of science fiction thrillers.

Dusk. Mist. Cemeteries. City skylines. Autumn. FEELINGS. Fleeting moments. These are some of the things that come to mind when we think of Chris McCaughan's band, Sundowner. In addition to his work as the guitarist and singer in The Lawrence Arms, over the last seven years Chris has amassed an impressive body of work and played all over the world as Sundowner. On September 3rd, Fat will release his third studio album, Neon Fiction. This time around, Chris is once again joined by multi-instrumentalist and fellow Lawrence Arm, Neil Hennessy. The two have boldly expanded their horizons to experiment with full band instrumentations, dynamic arrangements, and stylistic departures from previous records. Together, Chris and Neil entered Atlas Studios (Alkaline Trio, The Menzingers, Masked Intruder) and crafted ten songs that feature indelible new melodies and Chris' most personal and confident lyrics. Head over here to view his upcoming show dates and read on for a message from Chris:
Hi there. I feel like we've been withholding valuable information for long enough, so here are some gritty details on the new LP. Most importantly, it's coming out just in time to be the soundtrack to your fading summer! And, secondly, I am stoked to finally share the album cover, tracklisting and the title. Yessir! My good friend, New York City-based photographer, Ben Pier, shot the cover for the record. The photo is awesome and totally captures the vibe of the album. He's got an amazing way of seeing the world and was instrumental in helping to discover the whole aesthetic of Neon Fiction. You should go check out his work. He's a rad photographer and an even better dude. Can't wait for you all to hear these songs.

Indonesia Coffee Output to Rise 38% in 2012-13, Volcafe Says
Coffee production in Indonesia, the world's third-largest producer of the robusta variety, will jump 38 percent in the season starting in April, according to Volcafe, the coffee unit of ED&F Man Holdings Ltd.
Production will total 9.1 million bags in 2012-13, up from 6.6 million bags in the current season, the Winterthur, Switzerland-based trader estimated in a quarterly report e-mailed today. Rains caused by the La Nina weather pattern, associated with cooler-than-normal equatorial waters in the Pacific Ocean, cut output in the current season.
A larger crop in Indonesia may help ease tight supplies that have lifted prices for robusta coffee by 11 percent in London this year. The variety is grown mainly in Asia and parts of Africa and used to make instant coffee and espresso.
"It is very tight until April, and then once the new Indonesian crop arrives, there will be a reversal of this tightness and a rebuilding of stocks," Volcafe said.
Vietnam, the biggest robusta producer, will harvest 22.1 million bags in the 2011-12 season started in October, up from 20 million in the previous season, the trader estimates.
"Vietnam is almost the lone supplier of volume robusta these last couple of months, until India, Uganda, Indonesia, Ivory Coast or even Brazil start to ship more volume come April and May," Volcafe said in the report.
Honduras, Colombia
Coffee output in Honduras, Central America's largest producer, will advance 21 percent to 5.1 million bags in 2011-12 as yields improve, Volcafe said. The season there started in October. Production in Colombia, the second-biggest producer of the arabica variety, will "struggle to reach" 7 million bags in 2011-12. Output will be no higher than 7.5 million bags in 2012-13, it said.
Arabica beans are grown mainly in Latin America and favored by companies such as Starbucks Corp. for specialty beverages.
Farmers in Brazil, the world's biggest coffee grower, will harvest 55.7 million bags in 2012-13, up from 48 million bags in 2011-12, as trees enter the higher-yielding half of a two-year cycle, according to Volcafe. Output in the last high-yielding season in 2010-11 was 57.6 million bags. Harvesting there usually starts in July.
"We have estimated that there is still more coffee stored internally than we originally expected, and so have revised up our Brazil 2011-12 crop number by 1 million to 48 million bags," Volcafe said. "Rainfall for the new crop has been a touch patchy through February so far."
Global coffee demand will outpace supplies by 7 million bags in 2011-12, the trader estimates. The market may move into a surplus of 2 million bags in 2012-13, according to Volcafe. A bag of the beans weighs 60 kilograms (132 pounds).

Goodbye, Danny…
Apr 20
In Friends, history at 5:36am
When I first arrived in NYC, nurturing faint hopes to become a photographer in the Big Apple, Danny Farrell was the dean of NYC press photography, a class act, and much respected. A shooter's shooter, nobody was tougher when the job was on the line. He delivered. A resplendent generalist who shot it all, his particular genius was on full display at Yankee Stadium, and at the tracks, Belmont and Aqueduct. Baseball and the horses—nobody beat him. He loved pictures, and life. As good as he was, he was also approachable and decent, always up for a laugh and a beer, or maybe even a good "martooni" as he occasionally called them.
He passed away this week. I will miss that laugh, his distinctive voice, and his wisdom. We will all miss his pictures. The NY Daily News, where he spent his entire 50 year career, did a great thing this week, running a portfolio of his images. Do yourself a favor and hit this link. One photographer, with keen eyes, and an unerring touch for human moments, helped create our collective memory. Below is his most famous frame.
A year or so ago, I went to Danny's house, and shot the below. My way of saying thanks.
In 1976, I went to NYC straight from photo school at Syracuse University, seeking work as a photog. It was a foolish act, fueled by the lack of knowing and the hubris of youth. New York, a stern taskmistress, sorted me out quite quickly.
The only work I found that was connected to photojournalism was as a copyboy at the New York Daily News, New York's picture newspaper. They had at the time over 50 staff photographers and a daily run of well over a million copies.
I ran copy from desk to desk, got coffee for nickel tips, and delivered lunches to columnists. My connection to photos was to make subway runs, collecting bags of film from the photogs, especially the sports guys, at the stadiums or Madison Square Garden, and race deadline back to 42nd St. I took home $107 a week, lived in a cockroach laden, tiny, hotbox of an apartment. It was broken into on a couple of occasions, and I lost all my camera gear. I also lost my dad that first year in NY.
No one even thought of me as having potential to actually shoot the pictures. My job was just to run my legs off with bags of pictures somebody else shot. I would go home at night, sit on my bed in the wash of an old, oscillating fan on the floor, and listen to the traffic blaring on Broadway. The stench of garbage, wrapped in the heat of the summer, drifted through the window, leeching into the stained carpet, the sheets, even my sweat. I would sit there in the dark and weep.
It was about that time that Danny Farrell looked at my work. The fact that such a photographic luminary took the time out to look at the portfolio of a desperate copy kid was an act of kindness I have never forgotten. I was broke, running out of hope, and thinking about packing it in. He looked at my pictures. He said, "Kid, you know a picture when you see one. Hang in there."
When I was sent to Yankee Stadium for a film run, I would race to get there early, and watch him. He shot baseball with a Nikkor 400mm f5,6, with gaffer tape arrows on the barrel, marking the focus points for second base and home plate. Audaciously, he would occasionally give me the camera and lens and let me shoot an inning. I framed up second base once, playing with the focus, and was off his arrow mark. He quickly said to me, "Kid are you sharp there?" I was not, and I told him I was just playing with the focus throw. He relaxed and nodded. "You know, I would double check myself if you thought it was sharp. You got those young eyes." I know now whereof he spoke. I no longer have young eyes, and good AF is a blessed event, not available to the shooters of that day.
His mantra in bright sun was "A thousand at f11." I remember one brilliant day, another photog proclaimed loudly in the photog bullpen at the stadium, "So is it two thousand at f8?" Danny said yes, but "I'd rather be a thousand at 11."
He was laid to rest wearing a tie picturing horses, racing for the finish line, where he would have been waiting. Also, there was a Nikon camera, created of black and silver decorations. At the bottom was a banner–Always at thousand-f11.
At his funeral mass, the fine photojournalist Kathy Kmonicek made a picture of Dan's great grandson, Braydon, saluting his great grandfather's coffin as it passed. An amazing, spontaneous echo to mark the passing of a remarkable man.
I will miss him. He meant a lot to all shooters, but in particular the "boys" in the studio, like Johnny Roca and myself. We grew up in his shadow, learning, listening and laughing. We are better for it. A print he signed for me, of one of my favorite pictures, is treasured. Danny Farrell's signature on a picture about the Knicks winning. Best of a couple worlds, right there.
Up where you are now, Danny, I'm sure it's a thousand at 11. And, if by chance we meet again, it would be my honor to run your film once more.

With Thanks….

In Friends, Memories, Thanks at 8:00am
I've always enjoyed the company of photographers. So, it was truly enjoyable to share time and stories this week with a group of extraordinarily, wonderfully talented shooters, all of whom share the good fortune of being called a Nikon Ambassador.
At an evening gathering of most of the Nikon USA staff, each ambassador was asked to show a quickie version of their work. In my case, that meant squeezing 40 years into five minutes. I actually asked forgiveness for showing a bit of emotion. In photo school, in the 70's, we used to hang at the darkroom, flipping through issues of this magical magazine called Nikon World. In it were the color treasures of the day, legendary pix shot by the likes of Jay Maisel, Eric Meola, Pete Turner, Anthony Edgeworth, and Michel Tcherevkoff. I pored over that magazine, dreaming, thinking that if I could ever shoot a picture that might come to the attention of Nikon, and this magazine, it would be a career well spent.
And, there I was, at the podium, a Nikon Ambassador, 42 years after buying a Nikkormat camera with a 50mm lens, at Willoughby's Camera, in Manhattan.
I know all of us invited into the program offer profound thanks to Toru Iwaoka, the head of Nikon USA, and the entire Nikon staff for this positive recognition, for making us partners, seeking our opinions, and simply celebrating the long, tough task of being a professional photographer, which by definition means turning in seaworthy work, year after daunting, exhilarating year. In an age when virtually anyone can shoot a good or even excellent frame or two, here and there, now and then, there is a durability about this group, a staying power both to their pictures and their personalities. But the most profound thanks go to Mike Corrado, my blessedly inappropriate, ever fiery brother. He took the notion of this program and charged with it, opening doors, knocking over obstacles and most likely, breaking some of the furniture along the way. His non-stop evangelism for shooters is legendary. His passion for photography is constant. His friendship is a rock.

A Good Picture Editor!
Dec 10
In Friends, history at 9:59am
Today's blog is over at Jimmy Colton's estimable Z PhotoJournal.
It is high praise to refer to someone as a good picture editor. That means that he or she is possessed of certain qualities. Among them, and not in any particular order, would be a deep sympathy for the uncertain craft of being a photographer; an understanding of the near keening need photographers have to engage in their trade, and to tell stories that move people and create understanding; the necessary patience, acumen and diplomacy to be the benevolent bridge between the raging beast of the photographers's needs, demands (and ego) and the matter-of-fact nature of the publication in question, which is invariably run by at least some folks who couldn't give a rat's ass about any need or mandate other than to sell issues and make some damn money.
As a very good editor told me once, photographers think about their story. Editors think about the magazine. The issue, in toto. A picture editor has to think about both. They have to be concerned about the overall look and feel and timeliness of the whole package about to be sent to the newsstand. They have to think of the flow of a story, as it moves from page to page, and the linkages and issues the pictures address. They have to be dispassionate, and judge a picture based on the picture, and not favor the fevered account of a photographer who will occasionally be wildly exclamatory in the description of what he or she did to get said photo. It's not about the shooter, it's about the picture, and sometimes bad news has to be delivered. "The take doesn't work." Or, "They killed the story."
They have to deliver this news in supportive fashion, so the photog knows they can rise from the ashes of a tough take and still have the confidence to deliver the goods on the next take.
And a good picture editor has to take the heat and defend the shooter. We are rarely in the room when judgement is handed down, sometimes unfairly. Many a good photo has gone unpublished or disregarded in the world of publishing and it's up to the picture editor to fight to the last yard, that boundary line where they pull up just short of being fired for their passionate defense of the picture.
Being a good picture editor is a tough, essential job. And Jimmy is one of the best. We started in this business as kids, gadding about Poland, chasing the Pope. I shot probably the toughest assignment I've ever shot for him. (I talk a bit about it in the interview. It was a near impossible, expensive picture, and he stuck with me on it, defended the process, and got the image in the magazine. Wheeling and dealing at a major magazine is not for the faint of heart, and many a photog out there knows how good it was to have the certainty that while they were in the field, Jimmy had their back at the magazine.)
I'm so glad he is out there on the internet, writing about the craft and practice of picture making, which is an endeavor he has so much experience with. Z PhotoJournal is a great stopping by point in the cluttered world of photo news. Just like he did at Newsweek, or Sports Illustrated, when he would go through a take, he cuts to the chase, and distills what is important to remember about pictures.
He is a good picture editor, and a dear friend. More tk…..
The Nebraska Project
Dec 3
In Friends at 8:57am
One of the best ways to start a career in photography has traditionally been to get a job as a newspaper/wire service shooter. If one survives the very irreverent dip and dunk process of the daily news game, you arrive at a place photographically where you feel confident shooting just about anything. Because, at a newspaper, that's what you do.
Bill Frakes and Laura Heald just launched an intensely personal, heartfelt project about Bill's home state, called, simply The Nebraska Project. The directness of the title reflects the place the pictures address—the sparse, beautiful, no frills state of Nebraska.
You know Bill as a sports shooter. He has been a long time, formidable staffer and contributor to Sports Illustrated, and has authored some of its most memorable moments and coverages. He has not just the talent, but the drive and intensity to drill through the bureaucracies and red tape of events like Olympiads and Kentucky Derbies, and fight to get his cameras in the right place. He works connections, angles, and the behind the scenes wheels and deals as well as he works his cameras.
(Lots of folks might think that you show up at these places wearing a shiny SI badge and you are ushered to a prime seat in a great position and people are ferrying you lattes in between the making of great picture after great picture. Nothing could be further from the truth. Before you even get the cameras out of the bag, you have to do a ton of work. Scouting, negotiating, relationship building, bartering, barking, clamping, wiring, testing and re-testing, all takes place in exhaustive fashion. And then, even after all that, you just never know when a ref or a TV network cameraman will block your angle.)
So what's he doing shooting landscapes—beautifully? Wait a minute, this isn't track and field, fella.
No, it isn't. But what Bill has done has photographed from the heart, and relied on all that experience, much of it gained back in his newspaper days at the Miami Herald, when he and his mates won a Pulitzer for covering the aftermath of Hurricane Andrew. The crunching grind of newspapering hones skills that stay with you your whole career, whether you are shooting a hundred meter dash, or a vibrant country sky. You know how to tell a story, no matter the subject matter.
Bill and Laura have told a wonderful story here, albeit one off their usual assignment path. After working in 135 countries and all fifty states, Bill went back home with his cameras, and took us all along (check out some of the coverage here).

The Power of a Returned Photograph
Nov 13
In Friends at 7:09pm
Dave Burnett is over in Dubai right now, working with Mohamed Somji and our dear friends at GPP. I have known David since the late 70's, and have always stood back in awe as he amassed a visual archive that is the stuff of our collective histories. Got a wonderful email from him this morning that mentioned Ravi's Restaurant. (I'm in Hong Kong, and bouncing off the walls of my hotel with the false energy of jet lag masked by a couple espressos.)
Last year, I made a few portraits of the staff at Ravi's, a wonderful restaurant on the streets of one of the those out of the way neighborhoods in Dubai, far from the soaring towers of steel and glass. Beautiful food, and the kitchen crew are an affable, decent bunch. David and Mo wandered over for a meal last night, and Mo had thoughtfully taken the time to make some prints out of the quick pix I had shot last year.
It was just heart warming to see these expressions, all the way from Dubai to Hong Kong. I have to expect this doesn't happen everyday for these fellas. Thank you David and Mo….makes my day. Or night. Or…whichever it is.
And, it appears their visit wasn't just about distributing pictures. David, ever the story teller, sent this as well. When you're talking Ravi's, it's all about the bread.

High School Confidential
Pacific Palisades High School placed an unusual message on their school telephone answering system.
[Collected on the Internet, 2002]
This is the answering machine message the Pacific Palisades High School (California) Staff voted to record on their school telephone answering system.
This came about because they implemented a policy requiring students and parents to be responsible for their children's absences and missing homework. The school and teachers are being sued by parents who want their children's failing grades changed to passing grades even though those children were absent
15-30 times
during the semester and did not complete enough school work to pass their classes. This was voted unanimously by the office staff as the actual answering machine message for the school:
"Hello! You have reached the automated answering service of your school. In order to assist you in connecting the right staff member, please listen to all your options before making a selection:
To lie about why your child is absent, press 1
To make excuses for why your child did not do his work,
press 2
To complain about what we do, press 3
To swear at staff members, press 4
To ask why you didn't get information that was already enclosed in your newsletter and several flyers mailed to you,
press 5
If you want us to raise your child, press 6
If you want to reach out and touch, slap or hit someone,
press 7
To request another teacher for the third time this year,
press 8
To complain about bus transportation, press 9
To complain about school lunches, press 0
If you realize this is the real world and your child must be accountable and responsible for his/her own behavior, class work, homework, and that it's not the teachers' fault for your children's lack of
effort ...
hang up and have a nice day!"
Charter Schools are a consortium of public schools in Pacific Palisades, California, that have received charters from the
Los Angeles
Unified School District (LAUSD) allowing them to operate autonomously. According to the Palisades Charter Schools Foundation:
The purpose of these schools is to improve student learning; encourage the use of different and innovative teaching methods; create new professional opportunities for teachers, including the opportunity to be responsible for the learning program at the schools site; provide parents and students with expanded educational opportunities within the public school system without the constraints of traditional bureaucratic rules and structure; and provide schools a way to shift from a rule-based to a performance based system of accountability. In essence, charter schools allow for increased flexibility in exchange for increased accountability.
In 1998 the sole high school in the Palisades Charter Schools group, the 2,400-student
Charter High School, instituted an
policy mandating that any student absent without a valid excuse ten or more days per
semester be failed, regardless of his academic achievements. One of the results of this policy was that in February 2002 forty Palisades High teachers assigned a total of
130 failing
grades to students whose classwork would otherwise have merited passing grades, because those students recorded absences and tardiness in excess of the school's stated attendance policy.
After vociferous complaints (and threats of lawsuits) from parents who contended they were unaware of, or didn't agree with, Palisades High's attendance policy (even though every student and parent had been informed of it), LAUSD officials said the failing marks might have to be voided because the attendance policy was not submitted to and approved by the school board. Without board approval, the school must follow the policies of the LAUSD, which states that students must be graded on the work they do and attendance may not be used as a reason to fail them.
Palisades High officials maintained that LAUSD district administrators had a copy of Palisades' attendance policy in their possession when they approved Palisades Charter High, and that in any case, Palisades' charter school status allowed school officials to set their own rules without inteference from the district. As
Education Week
noted, the LAUSD's "decision rankled the teachers, who argue[d] that their charter school
is exempt from such governance, but it also has sparked a heated conversation about standards, accountability, teachers' rights, and the influence of politically powerful parents."
The putative answering machine message for Palisades Charter High quoted above was concocted in part as a reaction to the brouhaha over the school's attendance policy, and in part as a sardonic expression of all the usual frustrations teachers experience in dealing with students and parents: fabricated excuses for students' absences and uncompleted homework, blame that teachers are solely responsible for the failures of non-achieving students, complaints from parents about not having received information already sent to them several times, etc. However, the staff "voted" for the message only in the sense that they agreed with its sentiments (the circulating version of this piece often omits the introductory line "Too bad they can't actually use
it ...
"); it was not ever actually placed on the phone answering system at Palisades Charter High. (In fact, the Palisades Charter High phone system didn't have menu options when we checked in December 2002: a switchboard operator fielded calls when the office was open, and a recording invited callers to leave voicemail or press keys to access a specific extension directly when the office was closed.)
A March 2009 version (circulated with an MP3 recording) identified the institution with the unusual phone message as Maroochydore High School, in Queensland, Australia, and added a further "menu option" of 'If you want this in another language, move to a country that speaks it.'

Rope Lanyards From Beal�17.50 - �24, added Apr/2010, see all Beal news & reviews
Reviewed by Jack Geldard - UKC Chief Editor
"...If you are doing a lot of multipitch sport routes or even canyoning, then these could be a good bet for quick and simple attachment..."
The lanyards obviously do exactly what they are supposed to, they attach you to belay points. The Dynadouble clip has one lanyard at a length of 40cm and one at 70cm, allowing you to clip in to staggered bolts at a bolt belay.
The fact that the lanyards are made from rope adds a small element of stretch to the system that you don't get with a sling.
The lanyards are well made, of a well thought out length and are very strong.
If you are doing a lot of multipitch sport routes or even canyoning, then these could be a good bet for quick and simple attachment.
If you mainly climb UK sport and trad I would say they are a rather specialist investment and you might be better purchasing some slings or learning how to build a belay with the 60m rope you have with you.
The performance specs are below:
A good but specialist bit of kit. Multipitch sport or canyoning fits well with these.
PRICE: For the single Dynaclip, £17.50 (40cm) and £19.00 (75cm). For the Dyna Double Clip, £24.00
