Retirement cannot be earlier than the first of the month in which the employees application is received by CalPERS.
Retirement may be effective any day of the week. If an employee separates employment on a Friday, retirement may be effective on Saturday.
Employees may request to use vacation (approval is based on operational needs of the University) and separate after exhausting all or part of their vacation credits.
Vacation remaining after employment separation is paid to the employee.
When retiring prior to attaining age 63, an employees age determines the benefit factor used in their retirement formula. To maximize the retirement benefit, an employee may decide to retire on their birthday or after completing another quarter year of age to increase their benefit factor.
If an employee is planning to retire at the end of one calendar year or at the beginning of the next calendar year, they should consider the cost-of-living increase. The cost-of-living increase is applied to the retirement allowance on May 1 of the second calendar year following the retirement. Example: If the employees retirement date is December 31, 2007, they will receive the first cost of living increase on the May 1, 2009 retirement check. However, if retirement is on January 1, 2008, the first increase will be on the May 1, 2010 retirement check.
If an academic year employee receives their paychecks spread out over twelve months and retires at the end of the academic year (mid June) instead of when their paychecks normally run out (September 1), they will start collecting the retirement pay approximately two and one-half months earlier and will receive the pay earned during the academic year as a settlement check sometime in June.
However, employees should determine which date is more advantageous (mid-June versus September 1). For some, it is better to remain on the payroll through the summer months due to various factors (additional service credit, attaining a birthday quarter, continuance of employer-paid vision coverage and life insurance which does not continue into retirement, etc.); whereas some employees will benefit more from collecting the retirement pay during those summer months.

Wimbledon 2013
Monday, 24th Jun 2013
Wimbledon begins today, with the world's finest tennis players battling to take home a Grand Slam title. The last British player to win the men's championship was Fred Perry in 1936 - his third consecutive win at the tournament.
Find out more about our sporting heritage here. Our men's and women's tennis collections are available to buy online and in selected Authentic shops now.
Fred Perry - The Tennis Champion
Thursday, 30th May 2013
Born in 1909 in the industrial town of Stockport, Frederick John Perry grew up to be the most successful British tennis player of all time.
The son of a cotton spinner, Fred's working class roots made him an unlikely champion in a sport traditionally revered by the upper classes. Ironically it was his father's dedication to 'working man's' politics that paved the way for Fred's success. Fred's father, Sam, was an active and dedicated member of the local Co-operative Party. He was offered and accepted a job in the London party headquarters, a relocation that unknowingly would result in a lifelong love affair between his son and racket sports.
The family moved to West London and Fred attended a school in Ealing, where he discovered table tennis and developed his voracious appetite to win. Each evening he would set up his dining room table and obsessively practice for hours. In 1928, Fred became the World Table Tennis Champion. Next, he moved his attention to lawn tennis.
He had discovered tennis a few years earlier whilst on holiday in Eastbourne with his parents. Stumbling across a local tournament he had noticed all the cars parked near the courts and asked his father if they belonged to the players or the spectators. Sam told his son they belonged to the players, to which Fred replied 'I will become a tennis player'. It was an audacious ambition. Tennis was 'owned' by the upper classes - the sport inhabited a world where he did not belong and would not be welcome. Fred did not care for obstacles and against the odds his ascent to glory was swift. He had a natural ability and equally important he had steely determination;
'I made up my mind early on, that I wasn't going to let people order me about…bloody mindedness was one of my specialities and revenge was never against my principles either'.
Fred gained notoriety on the court, not just for his wins, but also for his behaviour. He refused to shake hands with his opponents prior to a match, 'I wasn't being snooty, but you could lose some of the feeling in your hand' he explained. He played in buckskin tennis shoes and if a game reached a fourth set, he would change into dazzling white trousers and a new shirt to emphasise his freshness. It was this kind of 'vulgar' behaviour that led him to be snubbed by the class conscious Wimbledon crowd, the chairman of the Lawn Tennis Association reputedly muttered 'he is not one of us!'.
The snubs merely acted as a propeller for Fred. During his sporting career, he was the winner of 10 Majors including eight Grand Slams, two Pro Slams and three Wimbledon titles from 1934 to 1936; he is also the only player in history to have won at least one Major tournament in both tennis and table tennis.
His unrivalled skill on the courts attracted attention on both sides of the 'pond'; he dated Hollywood starlets, including Jean Harlow and Marlene Dietrich and became one of the world's first truly international sportsmen. Fred's charisma and dashing looks would even lead him to be offered a two year deal with Paramount Films amongst others - offers he refused due to commitment to his sport.
Fred's popularity with the people did not go unnoticed and during the late 1940s Toby Wegner, a former Austrian football player, approached him with an idea for marketing a sweatband bearing the Fred Perry name. They adopted the Laurel Wreath as a logo, synonymous with tennis and an ancient symbol of sporting excellence, it was perfectly befitting.
First off they produced a batch of sweatbands and gave them to all the top players to wear in major tournaments. The sweatbands were a huge success and in 1952, the Fred Perry Sportswear label officially launched. Next came an innovative performance shirt, one with a lightweight and breathable honeycomb structure. Fred wore the shirt whilst he commentated and players followed suit, eager to replace their baggy, ill-fitting alternatives. The Fred Perry logo soon became associated with Wimbledon, the world's leading tennis tournament; customers saw it, liked it and bought it.
From day one, the company enjoyed nothing but success. Its name even reached the highest levels of society. The Queen Mother once asked Fred why his shirt was better than anyone else's, to which he replied 'Ma'am, it's the shirt that fits', cheekily quoting the company's ad line of the day.
Fred went onto live in various parts of the world, but he always returned to Wimbledon to commentate. Remarkably he never bore any grudges for the LTA's cursory treatment of him as a player. On the fiftieth anniversary of his 1934 Wimbledon triumph, the Somerset Road entrance was renamed the Fred Perry Gates and a statue of the player unveiled. It was Fred Perry's greatest triumph.

Rated 4.7 out of 5Â by 18 reviewers.
Rated 2 out of 5Â by freepeoplereview ehh.. I loved this, what looked to be a sweater, on the model when I saw it. I ordered a size Small online since it was advertised as an oversized fit. When I received this I was surprised by the material. It was not soft and very thin. I was expecting it to be a bit more oversized than it is. It is not tight or form fitting but it hangs nicely. I am 5"7 and the sleeves were too short, which is my main concern. I think a medium would have worked much better. The color and large stripes are as pictured though. I will be returning this sweater. For the $98 price, I think I could get something alot nicer from free people. 11.7.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by sarahgoode Love it!!! I bought this in ivory and it is hands down my favorite shirt I own now. I would seriously wear it everyday if I could. It is super soft, fits great, and looks good with so many different outfits. It does run fairly big but I like the oversized look so it works for me. Definitely a must-have in my opinion. 6.14.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by windsorw Size it down! When i tried the ballet/grey one, i was surprised how sweet it looked. And it's so comfy! Just for those who are ordering, remember to size it down! I'm 5'8 and usually a Medium but the Small still fits quite loose. 4.21.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by triplelll the ultimate top lightweight, quality, easy wash, casual and elegant. Love the colours and have three now. Will definitely wear this year round and love to wear with skinny jeans and boots.I saw Taylor Swift wearing it in an interview and the top was advertised in the article. Thanks Taylor! 4.20.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by FPkeira Keeper! I've been eyeballing this piece for two months and finally decided to purchase it today. Love it, no regrets. Glad I tried on both a small and xsmall... I'm all about loose fitting clothes but the small (typical FP size) was way too big for me! Went with the XS :) 4.12.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by CarolineAnn Cozy Bliss! I bought this sweater in pale grey/ballet and I absolutely love it! It's so comfortable and while it does fit loose, it's still very feminine. I wear it with jeans, leggings or even over dresses. So versatile! If it was socially acceptable I'd wear it everyday :) 4.8.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Kayley Soft & cozy! Super soft, perfectly baggy & very comfortable. Looks really interesting with the FP One Emily slip underneath to give it some texture. 3.28.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by SnailLove Simple and beautiful Comfortable, great mix and matcher. Super soft. Got an XS, my normal fit, and it was just the perfect amount of baggy without looking sloppy. I''ll be getting another color for sure. 3.19.2013

For long-time vinyl and CD collectors, the opening of Ed Smith's Jazz might feel like the return of a long-lost friend.
Jazz could once be found in Shoreline Village and then in Uptown Station. After a hiatus, it reopened in Niceville on Nov. 23.
"I knew that the Internet had done some things, like it killed the music business," Smith said. "I figured that in five years, people would want to go old school again."
Taking his vintage collection out of storage, Smith was able to fill his small shop with a world-wide selection of music genres and music-related collectibles. Jazz offers limited-edition CDs and vinyl records. The walls showcase autographed posters and framed artwork.
"I'm an artist," Smith also said. "I make these shadow boxes. I make a line of jewelry." Both highlight the music industry of yesterday and today.
In addition to the selection, Smith provides information for experienced collectors and beginners: "When you love the music, and you love what you're doing, you wind up talking about it with people for hours."
LOCATION: 220 Government Ave., Suite 1, Niceville, across from Angel's Attic
HOURS: noon to 6 p.m., Mondays through Saturdays
EMAIL: email@example.com
The Cut-Off Barbershop has long been a part of Mary Esther, but in November Susie Dias took over ownership. She, along with Sue McKenzie and part-timer Vickie Gambill, continue to provide military-style cuts at prices affordable for young airmen.
Yes, the $7 military cuts and $12 women's cuts bring in the regulars, but these three women cater to a special group.
"Anyone who is bedridden, who can't get a haircut, we'll do it for free," McKensie said. "It's very Christian organized. Whenever they need it (hair care), we'll go over and do it."
The women specialize in cuts for the elderly and people with dementia such as Alzheimer's. They also work with people who have special needs such as autistic children.
"Here we can make it nice and quiet to calm them down," McKensie said. Such a service, she said, is needed. "We make a living during the day. I believe what goes around, comes around. You do good, you get good."
LOCATION: 144 Mary Esther Cut Off, Suite 6
HOURS: 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Mondays through Fridays; 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Saturdays

- Foods high in calcium
- Supplements of vitamin D, calcium, and other minerals
- Biologically active vitamin D
- Adequate, but not excessive, exposure to sunlight
- Avoiding medication that may be causing poor calcium absorption
- Treating underlying illnesses
Treating Symptoms
- Wearing braces to reduce or prevent bony deformities
- In severe cases, surgery to correct bony deformities
- Drink vitamin D-fortified milk.
- Consume enough vitamin D , calcium, and other minerals. If you think your child's diet may be lacking, talk with the doctor about other sources of vitamins and minerals.
- Get sufficient, but not excessive, exposure to sunlight. Fifteen minutes a day is usually enough. Any longer than that requires sun protection with clothing or sunscreens, especially in fair-skinned infants and children. Children with dark skin are at increased risk for rickets and may need more sun exposure and dietary supplements with vitamin D.
- Breastfed babies and bottle-fed babies who do not get enough vitamin-D fortified formula may need to be given a supplement starting within the first few days of life. Children not getting at least 400 units of vitamin D from their diet may also need supplements. Talk to the doctor to make sure your child is meeting the nutritional requirements for vitamin D.

Pfft, it's hardly a great thing considering this is Nintendo, who believe in charaging as much as possible for their first party games for as long as they can possibly get away with it. All their retail titles on eShop are £39.99, more than you'll see in any sane retail store I'll be damned if I ever pay that much for a 3DS game. It usually takes a year or 3 before they even considering putting their prices down too - though then again they also said they were making a concerted effort to not cannibalize retail store sales too.
it all comes down to being a smart shopper,... here (in the US) we have an electronics store (Fry's)
at which some day-1 releases (including consoles) carry a considerable price markdown
I, for example, purchased the 3ds XL on launch day for $179, marked down from the MSRP of $199
and NSMB2 for $29 (10 off from the MSRP) ... Same place where i got MK7 which was also released
for that same price

A former member of the Saint Louis University community has passed away. Raymond L. Windle, S.J., died Thursday, Dec. 16, 2010. He was 82.
|Raymond L. Windle, S.J.
A Jesuit for 64 years, Fr. Windle entered the Society of Jesus at St. Stanislaus Seminary in Florissant, Mo., on August 18, 1946, and was ordained on June 16, 1959, at St. Mary's College in Kansas.
After ordination and tertianship, Fr. Windle completed an M.A. in comparative literature at Indiana University in Bloomington.
He went on to teach English at St. Louis University High School from 1962-1978. In the middle of that assignment, he took a sabbatical for additional study and part-time teaching at St. Joseph's Preparatory School in Philadelphia, Penn. and Bellarmine College Preparatory in San Jose, Cal.
Known nationally among teachers of English, Fr. Windle was invited to serve as a member of the national Advanced Placement English Committee in 1970.

PANAMA CITY — The Bay County Jail inmate who died Tuesday night spent about six weeks in the unit of the jail tasked with preventing suicide, law enforcement officials said Wednesday.
Robert Charles Batty, 32, had been to court earlier this month and was convicted of violating probation. He was in a section of the jail that housed inmates awaiting transport to the Department of Corrections when he died Tuesday night.
He was last seen alive at 10:47 p.m. Tuesday, according to the Bay County Sheriff's Office. At 11:16 p.m., corrections officers doing a head count discovered the man had asphyxiated himself with a bed sheet tied off to a hand rail in his cell. Officers and jail medical staff performed CPR until EMS arrived at 11:37 p.m. and pronounced him dead, BCSO said.)
Batty was alone in his cell, and the suicide appeared to have been planned, Warden Rick Anglin said. Lock-down occurred Tuesday night around 10:40 p.m.
"I think he planned it, knowing what the routine was for what we call lockdown and count," Anglin said.
Batty spent an unusually long time on the jail's suicide watch, roughly six weeks, Anglin said, and he had been evaluated earlier in the day by a mental health counselor. He gave no indication of his intent to commit suicide during that evaluation, Anglin said.
Inmates who are placed on suicide watch are under "constant, direct observation" as they progress through the three-tiered system, Anglin said. Inmates on level one, the most restrictive level of suicide watch, have basically no privileges and are confined to a stripped-down cell with only a mattress and a shroud for clothes, which is tear-proof to prevent them from hanging or asphyxiating themselves.
They get their clothes back when they progress to level two, and they begin to receive limited privileges such as phone calls. Level three allows for greater privileges, such as access to the commissary and permission to receive visitors. Inmates who progress through level three are released into the general population.
The rate at which an inmate progresses through suicide watch back into the general population is determined by a committee of members of the jail's medical, mental health and security staffs, Anglin said. After an inmate has been removed from suicide watch they receive regular follow-up evaluations such as the one the inmate underwent Tuesday.
Anglin said his staff does a great job preventing suicides. This was the first suicide at the jail since early in 2009, he said.
"We get [suicide] attempts on a pretty regular basis, and normally we can prevent them," Anglin said. "Every now and then, when someone really wants to do it and plans it out, it's hard to stop them."
Batty had violated the conditions of his probation by failing to report a change of address to his probation officer. He had been sentenced to serve 13 months.
He had no address and was listed as a transient when was arrested in July 2012 on suspicion of rape. He pleaded no contest to battery and was sentenced to two years probation that required him to keep his address current with his probation officer.
Batty listed his address as 609 Allen Ave., the Rescue Mission, during an initial meeting with his probation officer in December, and apparently never checked in again.

that graphics in the apu leave a bit to be desired even for minecraft
as littleneutrino said you'd be lucky to get more than 20fps with vanilla minecraft
add any kind of mods and you're looking to have that fps drop furtherGo to the full post

Roomy yet compact was our motivation on this Zippered Checkbook Wallet and it shows in the design. It's got plenty of space for your everyday essentials but is still sized right to carry with you at all times. Made from top quality leather, our Zippered Checkbook Wallet has tons of storage capacity. It has 10 slots for credit, debit, or business cards, 3 receipt pockets, and 4 side panel pockets. It also has an exterior zippered coin pocket for loose change and other small items. We also include an ID window with a thumb slide and a pen holder loop so you'll never be asking to borrow something to write with. It's clear to see - our Zippered Checkbook Wallet has everything you need to stay organized in your busy life!
Our Classico leather collection is a semi-aniline, drum dyed pebbled leather. It offers a little extra color and character, making it a good choice when you want your accessories to stand out. This full grain leather has a soft hand feel with intricate lines, giving it a distinct look from our smoother leathers like Vero and Zita. It comes in a wide variety of colors that you won't find in our other collections and has a polished finish to make them really shine. Its unique appearance and range of colors make it ideal for matching with purses, belts, or other leather items you own.
I was looking for a checkbook cover for my mother that would match a wallet that she had recently purchased. Found the Leatherology website, and showed the zippered checkbook wallet to my mother. She liked the look of it, but the description said that it was grey. I called customer service to ask about this because the wallet looked white in the picture we viewed. I eventually made the purchase despite the fact that it would likely not match the wallet my mother had. It ended up being more beige than grey, but my mother loved the design and all the card slots and pockets this wallet has. I only wish that Leatherology offered this and other items in a true white. Overall my mother is very happy with the wallet, and I guess if anything it does go with a pair of shoes that she has.
Excellent zippered checkbook wallet. My pen, check register, checks, ID, cards and stamps are all organized and nothing falls out. Beautiful smooth, soft leather in a deep purple. Love the extra flap that covers the register & checks. Keeps them flat and it holds extra cards too. Quality is excellent. Every stitch in place. Nylon zipper in the exact color of leather. Well designed. Not too big, just enough to hold checks with margin around to spare. Quite slim even with everything in it. Nice little extra outside zip pocket for flat items like stamps or tickets.
A little expensive, but locally, all I saw was expensive plastic wallets with less organization. This is exactly what I wanted and the quality is excellent. This will last much longer than the non leather ones.
Initials are silver and really nice too. Understated.
Would buy again, but I know I will not have to replace this wallet for a long time!
Delivery was fast. Wallet in gift box with soft cloth wrapper and bow. Nice touch.
The color is strong and the wallet is just what I wanted which is hard to find: room for a pen, checkbook,and credit cards. And I don't have done brand name that I'm advertising against my will either!
The quality of this wallet is 5 Star! The color is eye-popping and fun! It arrived boxed so beautifully and with great care. I've ordered from Leatherology before and have never been disappointed!
The overall design of the wallet is great. The checkbook fits comfortably and the additional card slots are a great way to utilize space. The card slots are easy to get cards in and out. I have had other designer wallets were the slots were so tight you had to wrestle to get the cards out. I ordered the blush coral and it is a lovely color. It is a little deeper/richer coral color (which I love!). I have searched for the perfect zip wallet and I've found it! The checkbook feature is a bonus and I love it!!! BTW the leather is buttery soft. It is top quality at a great price! I splurged for the monogram and it looks great!
Everything about your company is great! I will be a customer for life every time I need a leather wallet, checkbook or portfolio. Even the delivery was quicker than I was told and it was packaged very nicely! Thank you.
I received my checkbook wallet and just loved it! The leather is very supple and the multiple compartments are extremely beneficial for all my credit and miscellaneous cards.
Leather and color is great! However, if you use each slot and put your checkbook and register in it, wallet is very snug.
Product is great. Shipping was the fastest I have ever seen. Thanks for the pleasure. Will order again products from your company.
I looked for quite a while before I found this wallet. I wanted something that would carry my cash, my cards and my checkbook. If I try I can even get my cell phone in there.
I would recommend this for anyone wanting that combination.
I love my leather wallet! It even has my name engraved on it. A wonderful birthday gift to me
This product is made very well and I just love the leather. I have already gotten nice compliments on my blue zipper wallet. I am going to rate this product with the highest stars possible five. I highly recommend this product to any body who is thinking about purchasing it.
The checkbook wallet is perfect and the zipper allows for security of receipts and cards. The leather is beautiful and the embossed initials are subtle and rich. I'm thankful that I looked on-line before heading to a department store. My daughter is going to love it. Thank you.
Fits my checkbook, note pad and all my credit cards. I've used a wallet similar to this for years, but it was discontinued. Love it!
The leather is soft and smoothe. The color doesn't fade, and it is very roomy and organized. Great purchase!
After reading several reviews I was sure that I would get a quality product. However, I didn't realize the product would be ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I had my initials pressed onto the wallet (not the metallic letters) and it turned out beautifully! I ordered and received the product within three days. Very quality product! A little expensive, but worth every penny for the quality you get! Would definitely recommend!
I have been, for several years, enjoying the size and features of a basic checkbook style wallet with many credit card slots. but without a zipper, if I'd drop it, stuff spilled out all over the place.
This zippered version perfectly solves the problem And I can, of course, toss it here or there when I want to, without worry. And it has a helpful little zippered compartment on the outside.
I would have made the length and width of this wallet about 10% smaller, but I didn't feel like shopping forever for that "perfect size."
This one's fine for me.
Very pleased with this product. I did not know that the "checkbook" would be sewn into the wallet which is a nice add-on. No chance of the checkbook becoming separated from the wallet itself. The grape color is very nice, so can easily find wallet in handbag lined in "black". My old wallet was black and sometimes hard to find in big purse. Good value for the price. One more thing--the credit card slots are generous enough to fit laminated cards.
Soft very well made wallet. Plenty of room for all my cards and I love the fact I can zip this wallet up and carry it. It is nice to open it and look at a very neat and well organized wallet for once in my life.
I am very pleased with the quality of the product. It is exactly what I was looking for.
This was one of the best things I ever got. Great fast service. I will shop here for life.
I bought this wallet for my mom sight unseen. She was exceptionally pleased with the construction and the grain of leather. I will be ordering one for myself in the near future. Thank you Leatherology!!
As a repeat buyer I was impressed with the quality of the items I purchased. This time a checkbook wallet and previously an iPad cover.
Both items look great, are durable AND as I was shopping about a week before I needed the item they arrived promptly in a nice box with a bow. THANK YOU!
I love this checkbook wallet!! It was a Christmas gift for my son. The shipment was expedited quickly. It was wrapped perfectly in an impressive box with a bow around it. Then inside it was wrapped in a cloth protecting the wallet. I also had it monogrammed and it looked wonderful and professional. My son LOVED it. Thank You!
I still have not transferred from my old checkbook wallet because the new one from Leatherology is missing some important features that my old one had. It does not have the flap for the check register to mark the current page. Instead of having a zipper compartment on one half, both sides only have flaps. I haven't returned it because I have not been able to find one identical to my old one.
Quality materials, expert craftsmanship and timely delivery. The only thing left to say is, my wife loves it. 5 stars!
Great color, material and design. Made me feel great to see wife's eyes when she opened the box. Thanks!!
The product is exactly what is advertised. High quality, practical, adequate space, and it was delivered very quickly after ordering, even with the special embossing of the product. We are very impressed with Letherology, the service, product & delivery.
Signed, a very happy customer
Was a great present and a great hit. Was good quality and just what I was looking for.
This wallet is exactly what I expected and is perfect. Quality is good and it is what I needed and wanted.
Yhank you
What I hope it would be, good leather and made well.
The wallet is very nicely made, especially the leather which is very soft amd supple. Just be aware this is a large wallet, but my wife loves it and uses it every day.
If you are looking for a spacious but compact wallet, this is the one, it has plenty of room, really. I love the zip around, for securi! You won't find a wallet like this one that is well made. I highly recommend to anyone. Looking for a roomy but compact wallet!
Very soft and beautiful leather, lots of pockets. LOVE It!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is exactly what I was looking for. Your on-line pictures displayed the wallet perfectly. Don't stop making this style wallet, it is very hard to find in good quality leather.
My Mom wanted a new wallet that could hold many credit cards and a zipper. This was literally the only one I could find and I searched far and wide. It is made beautifully and is very safe because it zippers all the way around. I would highly recommend.
This is a very good quality wallet with ample room for everything. It is very well organized and the leather is gorgeous!
This is exactly what I have been searching for for months. I wanted to downsize, & this checkbook wallet is much thinner than the one I was using. I like that everything is zipped inside. The only tiny problem is that I have to poke one corner of the checkbook inside a bit before it'll zip. Otherwise, it's perfect.
The most beautifully made and functional wallet I have owned. Compared with price versus workmanship; very, very reasonably priced. I would love it if you made larger portfolios for pictures.
I love the amount of room that this wallet has and how efficiently it puts everything at my fingertips. It slips effertlessly into my purse and I love the color!
I really like this wallet, the one I replaced was a Day Runner. I had it for ten years and the zipper finally gave out. I sure hope this wallet lasts that long. Thanks Leatherology, for making a wallet that is similar to the Day Runner. I like the checkbook insert that is a bonus.
I love this wallet. You can put so much in it, everything you could ever need to put in a wallet, and still have room for more. The color and the texture of the wallet are both very nice. Thanks for making my life a little easier. Sincerely, Sally, Athens, Ga.
I received the zip around checkbook wallet today and it is wonderful. Very spacious, and looks elegant, the service from Leatherology was exceptional. Thank you and I will tell my friends about your products.
This item is exactly what I was looking for. The one question I had was answered by your customer service very quickly. Thanks, I will be a return customer!
I'm extremely glad that I bought this wallet for myself. I love the complete security of having an all around zip, to safely secure my credit cards, insurance cards, & check book. There's plenty of pockets everywhere! I love it! I even have a book of postage stamps in my new wallet! Id recommend this item to everyone. In fact, my sister wants one in black.
Very Satisfied. Excellent quality for a excellent price.
Excellent leather work, the wife is satisfied so what else can I say, except the shipment was on time and good condition.
This is the best wallet it holds just about everything the leather is excellent this is not only for woman i have seen men with wallets like this.I'm thinking of getting my man one.
I like the zipper because it keeps things from falling out and adds security. It has plenty of pockets for my credit cards also.

This is beautiful.
Thor Mollmann does it his way and winds up with one of the neatest projects yet, unsullied and unaffected by the boredom that inevitably follows the usual modern convention.
Thor's original '68 Z28/RS doesn't languish in some unapproachable salon icon-like, only to be admired but never driven, as if its appearance in the light of day or contact with the grit of tarmac would suddenly diminish it; might cause it to vanish in a rare vapor. There's always the off-chance it could be taken out by some hump in a $3 beater. It's much too valuable, too precious for that, right? Thor smirked, harrumphed, and then strove to bring some heat to the traditional contract.
To prove the point, car builder Cris Gonzalez (JCG Restorations & Customs, Oxnard, California) drove the Camaro from Thor's home in Ventura, California, to south Orange County and laid the keys on Editor Nick with the stipulation that he should try to hurt it, do his worst. Fine attitude, that.
Californian Thor found this genuine article a well-known island chain in the middle of the Pacific. It had been a race car of some sort all of its days and the engine it came with wasn't even close to the bright-day 302 of record. It flustered Thor not in the least. He wanted a high-rpm but torquey and powerful small-block based on the original internal dimensions. No mega-stroker, nitrous folly, or supercharged air. In fact, he made no popular concessions at all, just atmospheric in, atmospheric out.
"It's a high-winding motor. It's not meant to be chugging at the bottom of the rpm band," said Gonzalez. "Thor's goal was to build the Z/28 like he knew them in his high school days. He isn't old enough [39] to have experienced this when the cars were new, but there were still a lot of them being used every day. He's of German heritage so he firmly believes in heirlooms. He has three young sons and a daughter, and the first one will get this car. Eventually, he wants to do a car for each one of his kids."
Thor's toil produces the wherewithal but leaves little time for family outings or turning wrenches. The hard-core of Thor's legacy is his work as a firefighter who maintains as many overtime hours as possible. In light of the recent epic 260-square-mile burn near his neighborhood, he's been getting plenty of that. He's also a military reservist who spends weeks at camp every year, so family quality time becomes his priority at every opportunity.
"The car was owned by Larry McGee [race driver] who then sold to a guy named Rodney Camaro in Hawaii," related Thor. "I bought it in 2002. It had a built 396 and it was pretty fast. We rebuilt the car for my sons, now 4 and 6. My 1-year-old baby boy is also now part owner. I did this so they could learn to appreciate American muscle car history. And they are big fans of Disney cars and Lightning McQueen. They love to ride in it. Even my daughter loves to ride in it."
Thor wanted cornered-rat ferocity from the miniscule mouse, but he also wanted it to be completely streetable, to start, idle, and honk around town like one in a modern vehicle, even though it wouldn't be doing this on a daily basis. Since he's unlikely to be present at any given time, Thor named Cris Gonzalez his emissary and the Z/28 his ward. Consequently, Gonzalez has been having lots of fun beating up on Thor's heirloom.

On-Mountain Ski Food
- Login to add to Favorites
- 0 Comments
You've come to expect me to share my outdoor adventure knowledge, and I am not going to change gears completely, but a girl gets hungry. (Especially if she is outdoor adventuring a whole bunch.) So this blog is dedicated to one of my other favorite things besides skiing, which is lunch.There are two options for lunch at a ski resort. The first is to brown bag it/pack your own, and the second is to forage when you get there.
To give homage to the brown bag crowd, this is definitely the most economical and quite often, the healthiest option. I was brought up on this team, though my parents used an L.L. Bean tote bag, not a brown bag to pack our family lunches. Of course, I often needed an afternoon snack of soup from Maria who ran the cafeteria. It seemed like such a luxury to have this cup of soup in the afternoon, though I am sure it was standard Campbell's chicken noodle. And that may have started my addiction to eating on-mountain despite the sometimes lackluster options.
Of course the other reason, I often opt to not brown bag it, is that it's hard to pack a lunch when you are heading to the mountain. It can be done, but with all the planning it takes to actually get to there in the first place, food is one of those things that is easier to deal with later. Most resorts have pretty typical fare — burgers, fries, pizza. I've noticed in the past five plus years, there are certainly more and better options.
One of my favorite on-mountain treats at Killington Resort in Vermont is Ana's Empanada's, conveniently located in the Needle's Eye area by the mid-station of the Skyship gondola. Made by a lovely husband and wife team (Ana is the wife if you did not guess already), the empanadas are all natural and made with local and fresh ingredients. You've never had an empanada? They are Latin American pastry or bread pockets stuffed with deliciousness, then sealed and baked or fried. The inspiration for a Hot Pocket probably came from someone who ate an empanada and thought, "We could make this into something gross and highly processed, freeze it, and sell it to lots of people who are too lazy to cook, or don't know how delicious an authentic, home-made empanada is."
My favorite empanada from Ana's is The Butternut: Butternut squash, sweet potatoes, and wild mushrooms with a touch of hot chiles (extra chimichurri salsa, please). I think that I could drink the salsa straight and be totally blissed out for days. Of course, people would start avoiding me from the intense garlic odor seeping from my every pore. If you are from the brown bag/pack your own lunch school, they've opened a location in downtown Rutland, Vermont. You could buy a batch on your way to the mountain, but you might eat them all by the time you get to the mountain. So, maybe that is not an option.
I am going to move from the savory to the sweet. I think that the best sweet to purchase at a ski resort is a Snickers bar. You will pay $2 for it, but it's the perfect afternoon snack if you've been skiing hard all day long. Snickers really does satisfy, as they say. I recommend the added expense of purchasing this tasty treat at the mountain because it is sort of gross to eat a warm, mushy Snickers bar in the afternoon. Buy it. Eat it. Don't allow for lag time.
Of course, you might not make it inside the lodge to purchase a Snickers bar if you catch a whiff of a waffle wafting through the air. I've seen these waffle shacks everywhere lately, it seems.
The Waffle Cabin at Okemo has been featured on The Travel Channel's "Extreme Fast Food" show, as the most extreme drive-through in the country, according to Okemo PR Director Bonnie MacPherson. "Sure, the Belgian style waffles are delicious, but the best part is that you can ski right up to the window and wrap a mitten around a piping hot waffle. . .and keep right on skiing. The secret ingredient that makes these waffles irresistible is special beet sugar, imported from Europe. Sugar crystal nips baked into the batter give the waffles an extra little crunch as they caramelize on the outside of the waffle."

Specs look good, what am I missing?
Posted 31 January 2013 - 03:35
AMD has lower IPC than Intel meaning that performance is lower in applications and games that don't handle cores properly. It should be better than an equivalent i5 at the same price for general usage and multitasking. Another low point is power usage which is higher than i5s.
Personally I'd go with the 8320 and overclock that. You can can get AMD boards with the same features (without PCIE3) as Intel ones at lower prices. Their current socket AM3+ should support the next gen Steamroller (coming ~2014), while the 1155 Intel socket is a dead end. Alternatively, you can wait for Intel's Haswell which should hit on their new socket around June, but don't expect it to be budget friendly.

It's an awesome deal if you typically deal with several heavy duty applications simultaneously. An equivalent Intel chip in that area would cost a lot more. It's not so good for single application loads, though, which is more typical usage. So gaming would be an example where you might want to choose a different product.

OP maybe you can say what config your current PC has and name what you typically do with it so we can get a better idea of where you're coming from and what you need.
Also, I don't believe Intel is better, it all depends on a lot of factors really. Even if AMD is far from the crown, it's quite competitive in price/performance.
