Dual Eyes was discontinued recently, perhaps because they now have the prettier Custom Selective Eyes which debuted in November 2009.
Pigmentation: ★★★★★★★ superb pigmentation with just one swipe
Shimmer: ★★★★☆☆☆ dazzling, but too sparkly for me
Texture: ★★★☆☆☆☆ dry when compared to the other
Recommend: Yes. I looove the colours in GN-1. I do prefer quads but a duo does not bother me~~

Pigmentation: ★★★★☆☆☆ moderately pigmented, the darkest shade has the best colour payoff
Shimmer: ★★★★★★☆ subtle, not over the top at all
Texture: ★★★★☆☆☆ smooth although it is incomparable to Melting Eyes
Recommend: Yes! I am essentially getting three colours because the two lightest are similar when on my lids. Thankfully the other quads in this range have more distinctive shades.

BR-1 is supposedly a dupe for Lunasol's legendary 04 Neutral from the Lighting For Eyes series. I might do a comparison later on since I own both quads.
Pigmentation: ★★★★★☆☆ pigmented and buildable
Shimmer: ★★★★★★☆ elegant and refined
Texture: ★★★★★★★ soft, buttery smooth, the best amongst the four. It even tops some of the high end eyeshadows that I own!
Recommend: YES!! Plus it gets lots of additional points for having a nice girly packaging.

Lavshuca is a pretty good brand to look into if you are in the market for drugstore Japanese eyeshadow palettes. They have good quality eyeshadows and I read that their lipsticks are pretty good as well. Definitely a brand worth purchasing!

One Round Left for Shon at NCAA Championship
Princeton junior Kelly Shon was 4-over Thursday to stand at 8-over for the NCAA Championship heading into Friday's final round at the University of Georgia Golf Course.
After two rounds that saw her put up a total of eight birdies but also two double bogeys, Shon parred her most holes of any of the first three rounds, matching the scorecard on 14 of 18 holes while bogeying the second, eighth, 13th and 18th holes. Her score has her in the top half of the field, tying for 55th among 126 competitors.
USC's Annie Park paces the field at 9-under, two shots in front of both Ally McDonald of Mississippi State and Stephanie Meadow of Alabama.
Standing third among the six players who gained entry to the field as individuals, Shon will begin her final-round tee time on hole No. 1 at 12:48 p.m.

Epilepsy Health Center
Epilepsy: Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS)
In this article
How Does VNS Work?
It is not known exactly how VNS works. It is known, however, that the vagus nerve is an important pathway to the brain. It is thought that by stimulating the vagus nerve, electrical energy is discharged upward into a wide area of the brain, disrupting the abnormal brain activity responsible for seizures. Another theory suggests that stimulating the vagus nerve causes the release of special brain chemicals that decrease seizure activity.
What Are the Risks of VNS?
The risks of VNS include injury to the vagus nerve or nearby blood vessels, including the carotid artery and jugular vein. In addition, there are risks associated with any surgical procedure, such as infection, bleeding and an allergic reaction to the anesthesia.
What Are the Benefits of VNS?
VNS is not a cure, and the total elimination of seizures is rare. However, many people who undergo VNS experience a significant (more than 50%) reduction in the frequency of seizures, as well as a decrease in seizure severity. This can greatly improve the quality of life for people with epilepsy.
What Side Effects Are Associated With VNS?
The most common side effects of VNS include hoarseness, coughing, tingling in the neck and problems swallowing. These usually occur only when the nerve is being stimulated. These side effects generally are mild and tend to go away over time.

Basic Clothing for Winter Cycling
Submitted by David on
Photo Credit: 303Photo
If you are like me, you cant stand riding inside. I avoid riding indoors at all cost and with the winter we are having its been a challenge. I have found that if you prepare and have the right clothing you can ride in almost any weather.
The big thing with cycling when it is cold outside is to not over dress (its a fine line). If I am warm the first few minutes of my ride I am way over dressed and will be dieing of heat 20 minutes in. Be prepared to be cold especially your extremities.
Layering is also key when riding in cold weather. I always start with some sort of a base layer. Depending how cold it is depends on the thickness of the layer. On top of this base layer I will wear a long sleeve or short sleeve jersey and on top of that some sort of coat. Again the coat depends on how cold how wet etc.
If its really cold outside (leg warmers and go straight for the bib tights. I prefer the tights without a chamois so I can wear my regular bib shorts under the tights.
Now comes the clothing that will keep you warm. I am a firm believer in keeping your neck warm. Its the same idea as wearing a scarf. I really like the what Rapha calls their winter collar. Its light weight and its not bulky. It can be easily shoved into one of you back pockets. It is amazing what a small piece of clothing will do for you comfort and warmth.
A good winter hat that fits under your helmet is the next small piece of clothing that is critical. Make sure the fit is good and that it covers your ears. I would recommend when you go to try one on take you helmet to make sure the fit is good.
The last two items to make you winter riding enjoyable are a good pair of shoe covers and a pair of gloves. These two items are critical because they will probably be the two areas that will get cold the fastest or the slowest to warm up.

ZF-12484: PgSQL lastInsertId() incorrect in a transaction
When one calls lastInsertId() without any parameters inside a transaction that has not yet been committed, an incorrect value is returned.
To reproduce:
$this->insert(); // We assume that the table has a primary key named 'id' that is automatically incremented.
var_dump($this->getAdapter()->lastInsertId()); // Returns false
If one calls lastInsertId() with both parameters, then the correct value is returned. I.E.
var_dump($this->getAdapter()->lastInsertId($this->_name, 'id')); // Prints a number, like 23, which is what we would expect.
I tested this using Postgres, but it could be an issue in other adapters, as well.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (June 19, 2010) - After a strong performance during Friday's second round at the U.S. Open, former ETSU All American Rhys Davies (Bridgend, Wales) struggled during Saturday's third round, carding an 8-over-par 79 to fall into a tie for 72nd at the Pebble Beach Golf Links.
Davies' day included just one birdie on the fourth hole, while a double bogey and seven bogeys dropped him from a tie for 50th to his current standing. He presently sits at 14-over-par 227 for the tournament and will attempt to improve on those numbers during Sunday's final round.
It has been a memorable week for Davies, who made the cut for the first time in a major event after participating in the 2007 U.S. Open and the 2009 British Open.

Urgent !! If you don't speak up then who will
Submitted by Renee Lewis (not verified) on
Denver Parks and Recreation has decided to give 11.5 acres of our park land to Denver Public Schools. DP&R has broken a sacred trust as managers of our Parks. Hentzell Park is in the central corridor of the city located on Cherry Creek Bike trail across from the reservoir. This is a beautiful area full of wildlife. There is a prairie dog colony in the park that will be euthanized to build a school. There will be a Meeting for interested citizens this Saturday at 9am February 23, Calvary Baptist Church on the NE corner of Hampden and Monaco. This has never been done before in Denver and it opens a Pandora's Box for the future of our parks. If you enjoy our parks please come to the meeting to show your concern for this unprecedented maneuver by Denver Parks and Recreation Dept. This must be stopped. Park land has become increasingly valuable and will continue to be the focus for political schemes. Please join us in our effort to inform people and organize a response to this action by Denver Parks and Recreation.

We owe our existence to the wild.
The wild permeates and sustains us; it is our home, though our increasingly unnatural lives, lives distracted by artifice, obscure that brute truth. The boundaries between our wild bodies and the wild cosmos are in fact imagined, and we feel the actual oneness – wander it, play with it, play in it, play through it – in the sports we love.
To drop into a crushing wave or paddle a frothing rapid, to sail into icy seas, to set forth on a sliver of ice with little or no protection – in all endeavors where there is no turning back, we expose ourselves to the spontaneity of creation and to forces more powerful than we are. The clutter, distraction, bureaucratic rules, control, management and conformity of our daily life shrink to irrelevancy. We discover what is beyond artifice – a direct confrontation with the natural world, the final exam, the blunt presentation of the self.
Evolution is an autonomous process and we are a product of it just as the butterfly and the shark are. Ecologists speak of autonomous ecosystems, though they admit they don't have the slightest idea how to create one. Compound self-words are commonplace in science – self-replicating (DNA), self-regulation (Gaia), self-organization (the synchronized flight of birds) and self-similarity (snowflakes, river systems, mountain ranges). Ultimately, the cosmos is making itself; we're but a minuscule part of the drama.
Autonomous systems pervade our bodies. Our autoimmune system decides what belongs here and what does not. The autonomic nervous system is not subject to our control, yet our heart beats, our lungs breathe, our synapses fire. There are ten times more microbial organisms in and on my body than human cells, and they are integrated, nested, active, self-organized ecosystems within the larger ecosystem community that is me. The late, great microbiologist Lynn Margulis recently described humans as "walking, talking microbial vats."
We are also autonomous beings who cherish freedom, the opportunity to organize our lives as we see fit – to choose. And choice is key. Everything may be connected to everything else, but each being is unique, each event, each experience – you've never had it before and you'll never have it again. But the self still must choose a path.
The wave you're surfing? Each liter of seawater contains 10 billion viral particles, mostly bacteriophages. They kill 100 million metric tons of microbes every minute; their DNA is the most abundant on planet Earth. And your longboard is ripping right through it all. When you wipeout, you fall into them and they embrace you.
Still sucking air after the last pitch? That air contains viruses, bacteria, seeds, spores, pollen, algae, bits of spiders, aphids, beetles and mites – in addition to the innumerable particles courtesy of our civilization. The bacteria in your lungs – 2,000 of them per square centimeter – are sorting and absorbing the mess, and signaling to autophages in your cells to eat the bad guys raw.
The hand gripping your ice tool? Each carbon atom in your flesh, each calcium atom in your bones, each iron atom in your blood, each sodium and potassium atom in your neurons, the aluminum in the tool's shaft, the steel in the tip – more carbon and iron – all were forged in the nuclear furnace of dying stars, some now billions of light-years away – and speeding farther away each moment. And yet you are still connected to them.
But still – wild, wandering play must be chosen. So act accordingly. Make the drop, leave the eddy, lunge into an irreversible move. Subvert, once again, for pure fun, the mind's survival habits and society's machinations.

Crosby, Stills & Nash's concert at Red Butte Garden tonight is sold out, so don't expect to get in unless you already have tix or know of a really sneaky way to get them. More than likely, you'll be listening to your coworkers rave about the show tomorrow morning.
The good news: There's reportedly still tickets left to see Huey Lewis & The News on Sunday, Aug. 26.
The band was most popular in the 80s and has several gold and platinum albums under their belts. They're known for their light-hearted songs from a working-class perspective. If you've seen Back to the Future, you know them.
Katie Todd is opening the show. Check her out below:
Last we heard, there were 500 tickets left for Huey Lewis and the News.
But if that's not for you, there's still 300 tickets left for Bonnie Raitt on Wednesday, Aug. 29 and 1,200 tickets left for Trombone Shorty and Orleans Avenue on Sept. 2. By the way, this figures reflect tickets left over from Aug. 21, so jump on it.

Worried you'll never recover from all those years of losing and regaining the same 20 pounds? Go ahead and go back on South Beach, and then, once you've put the pounds back on, feel free to try that hot new cleanse.
NBC News reports yo-yo dieting is not the metabolism saboteur we thought it was.
"Just because you didn't reach or keep to a goal before doesn't mean you won't succeed if you try again," researcher Anne McTiernan tells the network, citing her recent study that found when the participants—overweight or obese postmenopausal women—were put on diets, the yo-yo dieters had the same amount of success as the non-yo-yo dieters.
"I was very surprised," McTiernan tells NBC News. "People who have a history of weight cycling by definition have problems with lifestyle change for weight loss because they gain the weight back again. I was surprised to find that while many of them weighed more than the noncyclers, they did just as well at losing weight with our lifestyle-change weight program as did women who did not have a weight-cycling history."

Great Documentary as usual for Nat Geo

About Me Movie Buff
Best Uses
Comments about Birth of Civilization DVD:
I watch a great deal of documentaries for pleasure and for information. This is one of my favorites, it is quite informative and it is made so that people with limited knowledge can keep up without being confused. The bonus episode that is included is about the discovery of H. floresiensis, which is a human ancestor that was around 3ft 6inches or so as an adult. The bonus episode provides great info both for those which are and are not familiar with human evolution. This documentary would be a great tool for a high school science class.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The other questions about "wind" got me thinking about it's normal verb use. To "wind" something is to wrap it in circles, either around an object or simply making a coil. For this use, it looks like Spanish has several words: ovillar, devanar, enroscar, or enrollar. What are the differences between these words, and how is each used?

Eye Cancer Introduction
People with eye cancer now have more treatment choices and more hope for survival than ever before. Doctors keep finding new treatments for eye cancer and ways to help people with eye cancer have better lives.
What is cancer of the eye?
Primary eye cancer is a very rare kind of cancer that starts somewhere in or on the eye (on the surface, on the iris, or within the eye beneath the retina) or in the skin of cells around the eye (the eyelid). Because it is so rare, it is best for a person diagnosed with eye cancer to seek treatment from someone who specializes in this field. A person can ask their doctor to refer them to an eye cancer specialist.
Anatomy of the eye
The eye is an organ that collects light and sends it to the brain. The brain turns this light from the eye into pictures that allow people to see. The eye is made up of different parts.
The eyelids keep the eyes moist and shield them from light. The conjunctiva is a membrane that covers the eyeball and lets the eyelid slide easily over the eye without irritating it. The cornea is the clear window that helps focus light and covers and protects the iris, which is the colored part of the front of the eye. The retina lines the inside of the eye and acts almost like film in a camera, doing the work that helps people to see.
The retina has a layer of blood vessels under it called the choroid. The choroid feeds the retina. It also has cells in it called melanocytes. These cells can sometimes grow into a malignant melanoma.
The choroid is one part of a group of structures called the uvea. The other parts are the iris and the ciliary body. The iris adjusts the size of the pupil (the opening in the center of the iris). The ciliary body produces aqueous fluid and controls the shape of the lens (to adjust to the distance of the object you focus on.) Melanomas may also grow in these other parts of the uvea as well.
Types of eye cancer
There are different kinds of eye cancers. Below are some of the more common ones:
Intraocular melanoma (uveal melanoma). This is the most common type of eye cancer. It usually develops in the choroid or ciliary body.
Intraocular lymphoma. Lymphoma (typically non-Hodgkin) that begins in the eyeball.
Eyelid tumors. Basal cell carcinoma is the most common type of eyelid cancer. It can be removed with surgery. Other types of eyelid tumors include squamous cell carcinoma, sebaceous cell carcinoma, and malignant melanoma.
Conjunctival tumors. (tumors that grow on the surface of the eye). Conjunctival tumors include squamous carcinomas, malignant melanomas, and lymphomas.
Choroid tumors. These are tumors that grow in the layer of blood vessels that support the retina. They include melanoma, which is a malignant tumor, choroidal nevus, and choroidal osteoma, which are benign tumors.
Lacrimal gland tumors. Tumors found in the glands that produce tears.
Retinoblastoma. This is a cancer of the eye and is the most common primary ocular tumor in children. It is extremely rare in adults.

Constant Innovation and Translation of Scientific...
Three-Dimensional Cell Culture Has Two Dimensions,...
Scientific Misconduct Is Jeopardizing the Quality...
Peptide Drugs Are Not Only Diverse...
In a translational medicine initiative, the National Institutes of Health has launched the NIH Centers for Accelerated Innovations (NCAIs), funded by its National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), to target technologies to improve the diagnosis, treatment, management, and prevention of heart, lung, blood, sleep disorders, and diseases.
NHLBI issued grants totaling $31.5 million to establish three inaugural, multi-institution NCAIs: Boston Biomedical Innovation Center (Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston Children's Hospital, Massachusetts General Hospital, and Harvard College), Cleveland Clinic Innovation Accelerator (The Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine; Case Western Reserve University; Cincinnati Children's Hospital; The Ohio State University, Columbus; and University of Cincinnati), and UC BRAID Center for Accelerated Innovation (UC Los Angeles, UC Davis, UC Irvine, UC San Diego, and UC San Francisco). Additionally, each awardee has secured nonfederal funding equal to or greater than the NHLBI grant.
Each center is a consortium of academic, government, nonprofit, and private sector organizations that will provide funding for feasibility studies, regulatory, legal, business development, and entrepreneurial training and mentorship. According to NIH, NCAIs will navigate the translation of early stage biomedical innovations from the research laboratory to commercial development and deployment to patients.
NCAI awardees will leverage existing federal government resources, including those offered by NIH and by other federal program partners including the FDA, the United States Patent Office, and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

PETA takes on human whales.
PETA has moved on from criticizing the fly-swatting Obama to taking on the obese.
Its latest billboard features a caricature of a blubbery woman in a bikini, with the wording: "Save the Whales – Lose the Blubber: Go Vegetarian.''
The Obesity Action Coalition, which proclaims itself as "the only obesity individual-focused organization'' - has taken offense.
It has encouraged its members to contact PETA. "Let PETA know the struggles faced by the obese are real, just as the struggles that are faced by animals who are victims or cruelty are real.''
In a press release, the OAC said: "With more than 93 million Americans affected by obesity, this type of unacceptable stigmatization of obese/overweight individuals has no place in today's society. Obese individuals are often stigmatized or discriminated against in a variety of areas, such as employment, school, healthcare and much more. The OAC finds obesity stigma to be extremely detrimental to the obese population as it furthers the all-too-frequent negative perceptions of the obese. The OAC demands PETA immediately end the campaign and remove the billboard from the public domain and the PETA Web site.''
I also might point out that manatees, among our most blubbery creatures, are vegetarians.

Too many bad ideas coming out of Raleigh
Published: Wednesday, April 24, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, April 23, 2013 at 4:02 p.m.
Here's a stunner — or maybe not. Three N.C. lawmakers filed a bill last week to allow school personnel to carry and use stun guns — including Tasers — at school. One of the legislators, Rep. Bobbie Richardson, D-Franklin, quickly backed away from it, though, telling N.C. Policy Watch that she planned to have her name removed from the bill because the language of the proposal could be construed, she says, as allowing school personnel to carry any weapon including guns.
Of course, other N.C. lawmakers are already pushing that bad idea.
The stun-gun bill is also sponsored by Reps. Dennis Riddell, R-Alamance, and Jason Saine, R-Lincoln. It would require training by the Department of Public Instruction and a $200,000 appropriation to implement.
Lawmakers might want to hit the pause button on this idea and talk to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department.
Even with law enforcement training — better training than the Department of Public Instruction can provide for gun training, we'd wager — they've had some trouble getting Taser use right. A teen died after an officer used a Taser on him at a grocery store in 2008. A 21-year-old died in 2011 after officers tased him at a light rail. …
The N.C. Center for Public Policy Research, a nonpartisan think tank, released some intriguing data about the 2013-2014 N.C. General Assembly last week. It's been well-reported that Republicans control both the governor's office and both houses of the Legislature. That historic change swept away decades of dominance by Democrats.
But there are other noteworthy changes as well. Law as a profession among lawmakers has declined. More legislators have business backgrounds.
More also come with local government experience, something more common years earlier. That local government experience might partially explain all the state meddling in local government affairs this session. Charlotte is feeling the sting as state leaders have introduced bills to seize Charlotte-Douglas International Airport from the city and turn it over to an independent regional authority. But, as the Center points out, other cities getting it as well: Greensboro and Raleigh, as lawmakers push changing school board terms and district boundaries; Asheville, as legislators try to set up an independent authority for its water system.
And this session, a slew of constitutional amendments have been proposed for conservative issues. They range from preventing some government eminent domain powers to limiting restrictions on concealed gun carry permits to sticking anti-union provisions in the constitution.
All this plus record numbers of first-time legislators is making for interesting, but too often problematic, lawmaking.

I really enjoyed reading your letter in the September issue: A cut the crap guide to midlife friendship. I am 52 years old and have 2 kids in high school. Many of the friends that I had when my kids were younger are no longer my friends. The friends that require constant attention, have the kids that do no wrong and appear to have the perfect life, are the ones to stay away from. Unfortunately I had to learn that the hard way. I hope at 52 I have become a little smarter. Now I am trying to pass some of this information along to my 16 year old daughter (also information on boys to stay away from). I don't know if she will listen to me at this point in her life, but maybe later she will look back and think that her Mom was right about some things.
Thanks and love the magazine,
Nancy Talkington, Houston, TX
I just read your letter regarding midlife friendship. It was interesting, because the friends I have made in my midlife are my closest friends. We became friends through work connections: I am an orthopedic surgeon, Joan is a neurosurgeon, and Kathleen is a pediatric anesthesiologist in South Jersey. We are all in our late 40's and have been friends for 10 years. When we first met, we all hit it off because we have crazy hectic lives that other people can't really relate to: 2 of us own our own practices, 2 of us have 4 kids and an ex-husband each, one of us has 2 kids, one of us has a child with special needs and we have all had our most recent child in our mid-forties. We are all heads of the household, major breadwinners, and love to have fun. We have travelled together- our best trip was to Vegas where we were mistaken for "ladies of the evening"! We go through thick and thin together, and are there to emotionally support each other. We have a girl's weekend every summer where we go down the shore and have fun adventures, and discuss things like what drives us to keep going, and where our next trip will be (we are going to Greece/Turkey to celebrate our 50th birthdays!).
Thanks for getting me thinking about how important these friends are to me!
--Dr. Laura Ross
As I just finished reading your editorial, I realized just how true your statements are. I find myself now dragged away from my homeland of the good ole small town USA after many years with lifelong friends to be transported to live in Shanghai, China. Now that my children are no longer childlike, one is actually at NYU, and the other a senior here in high school, I find myself looking for friends outside the "kids zone."
I have learned that life is too short to surround yourself with friends who don't instantly give off the right fit! Like shoes or a great pair of jeans, we look for a good fit, comfort, and flexibility.
Here in China, I have surrounded myself with women of all ages and races who do just that. We find ourselves here in a culture that shifts constantly as people move in and out on average about every 2 years; therefore, we don't waste time on the "fad type jeans."
When we do leave this place in the future, I hope to cling to a lesson learned about friendship, one that you so adequately stated in your column! I have learned that I can make new friends yet I will find the right fit! Thanks for affirming what I have now learned at age (soon to be 50).
Warmest Regards,

While walking up the driveway, while the magazine was still in plastic, I had a feeling I was going to love the magazine for the sheer fact that Diane Lane has, of all things, crow's feet, ON THE COVER. I immediately was intrigued at what this magazine had in store for me as I recently decided to not renew my subscriptions to Glamour and Cosmopolitan.

Growth and development are the natural state of all stages of life. Although the college years are a time of tremendous growth, learning, and excitement, they are also invariably a time of challenge, stress, and, at times, distress and conflict.
The Counseling Center at Rhode Island College exists to help students fully develop their intellectual, emotional and social potential, and to alleviate the distress and conflicts which may interfere with that development. We offer a wide range of services to assist students in their efforts to learn and thrive during a life stage and in an environment of both great opportunity and challenge. Our main function is individual counseling and short-term psychotherapy for personal, career, and educational problems. In addition, we offer a variety of group workshops and programs, vocational interest and personality testing, substance abuse evaluation, crisis intervention, self-help literature and audiotapes, and a stress management laboratory. When problems are beyond our resources or competence, we can refer you to appropriate services in the community.
All of these services, which are available to any current Rhode Island College student, are free, confidential and professional.

I have an oppurtunity to attend a two-day appleseed shoot here in VA and I was wondering if anyone here has ever attended one of these classes. I have heard everything from "Great" to "Appleseed ruins good shooters". There must be a middle ground. Any thoughts.

-Isaac Asimov
Do you think its worth attending for someone with no formal rifle training.
I only know what I've heard and I wanted more input. There are people who are not fans of the Appleseed method but not the organization itself.

Rated 3.2 out of 5 by 6 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Anastasia Wonderful little bracelet I bought this for myself, after first buying the necklace that goes with this bracelet at World Market. I simply love wearing the two together. They compliment every outfit and the silver adds just enough sparkle to whatever you may be wearing. January 21, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by aparogirl LOVE IT!!! I bought the matching necklace and love the set. Very neutral. Goes with everything. Not too shiny but not a matte finish either. Just right. June 14, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Yvonne225 Silver-multi strand bracelet This is a very cute bracelet for the price. I have had so many compliments on it! January 15, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by tvining Too Long Although I like the look of this bracelet, it is too long. Both ends of this bracelet are stiff and there is just too much of it. I wish it would fit tighter to stay in place. As it is it just slides around on my average size wrist. May 18, 2015
Rated 2 out of 5 by KIMBO2TT Too Big I'm not sure if a length was provided, but though it doesn't fit my wrist, it does go around my ANKLE. March 9, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by desertbabe Disappointed I expected the silver beads to be shinier; they were dull. I own a similar bracelet with a more feminine closure. I bought this because of the blue and thought it would match better with some outfits. I was very disappointed with this item. The bracelet was too bulky and heavy so I returned it along with the matching necklace. The bracelet closure itself was too big, bulky, and stiff. I've ordered many pieces at this site and have been pleased with most. This was the first I've returned in quite some time. I was happy I could return to my local store. I would not want to pay for return shipping for items I don't like and/or do not meet my expectations. It would cause me to order less items so I was happy I could return to my local store for an immediate refund. I don't hesitate purchasing items knowing I can return to my local store. Thank you!
