Before he can create a pair of uniquely-you specs, Davies first has to take some vital stats, including the distance between your temples, the width of your nose and the exact position of your eyes and ears. He'll then photograph your head and hand-draw a few sample designs based on your face shape and eyebrow line. The frames can be built from titanium, bloc acetate or buffalo horn, and colored to complement your skin and hair tones.

The 38-year-old Memphis native is a graduate of the Citadel and the great-nephew of Johnny Cash. He served a tour as chaplain with a Marine battalion in Iraq...
...challenge the new north-south bonhomie President Barack Obama established two months ago at the Summit of the Americas in Trinidad. Less than an hour after Honduran military aircraft had whisked Zelaya into apparent forced exile in Costa Rica, Chávez was accusing the CIA of having a hand in his ouster. "The Yanqui empire," he said, "has much to do" with what he called "this troglodyte coup...
