Spring Reading
One of my favorite activities in Spring is to curl up with a book in my garden. After spending so much time inside during winter, it feels so wonderful to have a little sun on your face while you enjoy a good read. Everything is in bloom and I am always compelled to choose books that act not only on my imagination but that fill my senses with beautiful language and inspiring ideas. Here are some of my favorites:
Collected Poems of Edna St. Vincent Millay
Edna St. Vincent Millay is one of the finest American Poets. Her poem "Renascence" is one of the most beautiful meditations on the rebirth of nature and self that I have ever come across. This is a real treat on a Spring afternoon.
The Ten Thousand Things by Maria Dermout
A magical tale of generations of women living in the beautiful Spice Islands of Indonesia.
Middlemarch by George Eliot (Marianne Evans)
If you haven't gotten around to reading this one yet, you should put it at the top of your list. A portrait of provincial life that manages to turn the everyday joys and disappointments of small time life into one of the most beautiful and intelligent novels ever written. Keep your journal close, because this novel is full of quotes that will stay with you long after you finish.
What is at the top of your Spring reading list?

We created Pandora to put the Music Genome Project directly in your hands
It's a new kind of radio –
stations that play only music you like
Felix Da Housecat
His parents discouraged his growing club lifestyle, however, and after high school graduation Stallings left the scene entirely to attend Alabama State College. Over the course of a few years, he lost all interest in house music, though his girlfriend got him back into it. After calling DJ Pierre (who had moved to New York's Strictly Rhythm label), Felix began mixing and producing again. By 1992, he had a hit with the single "Thee Dawn" on Guerilla Records. His popularity soared in Europe, and the following year's "By Dawn's Early Light" and "Thee Industry Made Me Do It" cemented his reputation.
Not long after Stallings formed Radikal Fear Records, the label became one of the top house imprints in the world, thanks to releases from Mike Dunn, DJ Sneak, and Armando, as well as Felix himself. During 1995, he released his debut full-length Alone in the Dark (as Thee Maddkatt Courtship) on Deep Distraxion. Hot on its heels came the label collection Radikal Fear: The Chicago All Stars and a Housecat DJ album titled Clashbackk Compilation Mix. Another production LP, Metropolis Present Day? Thee Album, followed in 1998. One year later, Stallings appeared extra busy; in addition to his first album as Aphrohead, he also released another Maddkatt Courtship LP, the highly praised I Know Elektrikboy. 2001 saw the release of Kittenz and Thee Glitz, a breakthrough LP that helped him gain mainstream exposure through articles in glossy magazines across the globe -- not to mention remix work for the likes of Madonna and Kylie Minogue. The proper follow-up, Devin Dazzle & the Neon Fever, didn't arrive until well over two years later, but Stallings put together a pair of mix albums (2002's Excursions and 2003's A Bugged Out Mix) during the intervening years. After collaborating with the likes of Thom Yorke and Sean Combs, Stallings released Virgo Blaktro & the Movie Disco in 2007. He Was King, a 2009 album, wasn't much different -- stylistically, at least -- from its immediate predecessors, trading in danceable synth pop with a heavy Dirty Mind/Controversy-era Prince influence. Over the next few years, the wild lifestyle and grueling schedule of a DJ on the road influenced Felix to "hit the reset button" and get sober. Now considering himself "Thee Former Mezcalateer" he returned to the scene in 2013 with a series of electro-disco tracks released by his own label No Shame/Rude Photo. ~ John Bush, Rovi

I tried that approach, first takedown I didn't know I had to hold the button, so I grabbed the guy and let go. Panicked as he moved to attack me and hit the attack button (while still in sneak mode) and shoved my dagger through his neck.......I'm a horrible pacifist.
Taking the "do not kill anyone" for my first time through time for the challenge and achievements.

I got through the first level without killing anyone, but it was kind of boring. I want to decapitate people! Be an angel of death! So I am right at the start of the second level and may just do a combo of stealth when I can and killing when I have to.
I kind of wish the FOV was bigger but I'm sure that there will be a tweak soon. I looked at the config files but I am afraid of breaking something.

Those who've kept a keen eye cast across these pages for C3 articles will by now have seen the series we're doing on Scarlett, our chrome-bumper shark project car. So far, we've taken an almost-stock '72 350 coupe and, through a series of a la carte modifications, turned it into something more formidable, starting by bumping the horsepower from 300 to 400 with a Zex nitrous-oxide system.
We've also dramatically improved the car's handling with Addco sway bars and wider 275-series tires on 17-inch Summit Racing wheels, as well as suspension mods including a Muskegon front rebuild and a Van Steel rear coilover conversion. Additionally, we're now hauling it to a quick stop with Wilwood brakes—six pistons up front, four in the back—and protecting ourselves with Dragvette halfshaft loops and a fire extinguisher.
The road is more visible thanks to ECPB electrical headlight and wiper-door actuators that actually work, supplemented with Cibié driving lights. Finally, a pair of Corbeau seats keep us both comfortable and well planted.
The problem is, in the words of Jeremy Clarkson, we need more, bigger stuff. More faster. So far we've stayed fairly close to factory systems such as the motor, trans, and chassis, with significant gains at reasonable cost. Call it Phase 1. Welcome to Phase 2, whereupon we follow the white rabbit down the performance hole, and all that "reasonable" stuff drifts away like smoke on the wind.
The ultimate goals for this car are threefold: 11s in the quarter-mile, 1g on the skidpad, and 20-plus miles to the gallon, closely tracking the Pro-Touring ideals. Doable in a 40-year-old car, but not easy. One of the first steps is to repower the car with an LS-series engine—namely, the 635hp LS3 stroker we described in our "Building the Beast" series. While we'll tackle the handling side of the equation later, getting the LS (especially one that stout) into a C3 requires modifications to the stock frame, as well as changing other systems such as the transmission, cooling, fuel delivery, wiring, and gauges.
Both the initial teardown and rebuild are being done at Street Shop, Inc., in Athens, Alabama, where owner and personal friend Tray Walden has lent his considerable expertise to the build. While Walden is best known for his custom frames that marry late-model Corvette suspensions to old-school Vettes (for which he holds two patents), he's also well versed in the engine transplants and other modifications required to fully modernize a vintage Corvette. Fortunate thing, that. We'll start with the teardown in this article, with follow-up articles on each of the major systems as we get to them.
After unbolting the hood, the first part of disassembly was to drain as many of the car's fluids as possible, starting with the gas tank. Not only is it safer to reduce the amount of fuel you're dealing with, it also makes the tank lighter, which is much appreciated for anyone who's ever balanced one on their head. Fortunately, Scarlett has an electric fuel pump, so we disconnected the rubber fuel line where it enters the carb, grafted on a longer length of hose, routed it over the fender into a bucket, then simply turned on the pump until the tank was nearly dry.
Transmission fluid and oil were even easier: Once we had the car up on the lift, it was just a matter of unscrewing the drain plugs. Getting the coolant out of the engine, however, required cutting the lower radiator hose, which meant a couple of us got soaked with antifreeze. Note to self: Wear old clothes.
It's possible to do all this work by yourself, but the team approach eases the process considerably. With the fluids out, I dropped the spare tire and its well from the rear of the car, then went to work on removing the gas tank, which is to be replaced with a larger stainless Rock Valley tank with an in-tank Aeromotive pump. Meanwhile, the others—Walden, Ted Whitney (also of Street Shop, Inc.), and the long-suffering Phillip Price—started in on the transmission and engine.

The Starkville High School bowling team gathered for a celebration last Thursday for the accomplishments of the past year.
With a fifth-place finish for the Yellowjackets and a sixth-place showing for the Lady Jackets in the state, it made for a proud coach Jim Philamlee.
Philamlee still sees room for improvement with the members of the squad returning next year.
"I think we could have done better, but I was impressed with the junior varsity," Philamlee said. "We've got six coming from Armstrong and two going to 9th grade. I'm impressed with what we've got coming. Of course, we graduated four seniors so that hurts."
At the end of the year scholarship tournament held a couple of weeks ago, over $$17,000 in scholarships were raised.
Philamlee said about 53 people showed up for the banquet to recognize award winners and show appreciation for those who supported the program.
Adam Hays had the highest average for boys varsity, while Mariah Newman had the highest average for girls varsity and Cody Prewitt had the highest average for the junior varsity.
Philamlee gave credit to his assistant coach Cindy Prewitt for her work and thanked members of the SSD administration, led by superintendent Judy Couey, for their support. He also singled out Jane Loveless, next year's president of the booster club, and Cathy Valdes, who helps the team as the photographer and with the booster club.

Test Prep - How to Eat for Standardized Test Classes and the Test Itself
Getting ready for a standardized test can be an intimidating prospect. The goal in both your studies and testing should be to take all distractions away, including those grumbling in your tummy.
These days on the internet a quick search of 'Brain Foods' will pull up all kinds of wacky supplements and diets that profess to have the ability of supercharging your most important organ. But the real truth to eating for a serious test or test prep class is to keep it simple.
No Distraction, Remember?
The overall goal here is to ace that test. And as any good prep class will teach you, your goal should be to eliminate distractions. While it may be advisable to modify your diet, you certainly don't want to make any radical changes that could give you an upset stomach or give you the need to go running to the nearest bathroom.
Your best bet is simply to eat some light foods which are already a part of your diet, but try to avoid anything heavy that will slow you down and make you tired.
Establish a Pattern
If you are going to make any changes, or incorporate foods that may encourage your brain to function at its max capacity, make the changes long before the test while you are studying. If you build a pattern of eating that corresponds to a pattern of study then there will essentially be no change once the real test comes around. This is a great way to program your body to respond mentally when certain foods are only associated with studying, like mints, which have been shown to increase brain function.
Beware of the Caffeine Crash
If coffee is part of your regular study regiment then by all means feel free to incorporate it into your testing regiment as well. Just be aware of two key factors that may affect you when it comes to coffee: 1) The Caffeine Crash. 2) The necessity of a bathroom.
Crashing down from a caffeine high could be the worst thing that could happen to you in the middle of a test, so remember to take it easy when juicing up. And that liquid is going to have to come out some time, so remember the second reason not to gulp the stuff down right before the big finale.
Last minute munchables are a good idea, but you don't want to be Napoleon Dynamite and snack on a secret stash of tater-tots mid-test. For one thing what if the guy/gal next to you catches you and demands his/her fair share?
But seriously, snacking during the test is overall inadvisable. During most standardized tests you will be under time constraints, and you shouldn't waste valuable calculating time by stuffing your face. However, snacking immediately before the test may be a good idea, particularly if it is going to be a long session like most standardized tests.
Nuts, fruit, and a little water are a perfect combo for this pre-test appetite quencher. And since studies show that mint is proven to increase brain function, you may want to include one to suck on during the test just in case.

The flute is a musical instrument of the woodwind family. Unlike other woodwind instruments, a flute is a reedless wind instrument that produces its sound from the flow of air against an edge.
A musician who plays the flute can be referred to as a flute player, a flautist, a flutist, or a fluter.
The flute has been dated to prehistoric times. It has appeared in different forms and locations around the world. A three-holed flute made from a mammoth tusk (from the Geißenklösterle cave in the German Swabian Alb and dated to 30,000 to 37,000 years ago) was discovered in 2004, and two flutes made from swans' bones excavated a decade earlier (from the same cave in Germany, dated to circa 36,000 years ago) are among the oldest known musical instruments. A fragment of the femur of a juvenile cave bear, with two to four holes, found at Divje Babe in Slovenia and dated to about 43,100 years ago, may also be an early flute. The Bible, in Genesis 4:21, cites Jubal as being the "father of all those who play the ugab and the kinnor". The former Hebrew term refers to some wind instrument, or wind instruments in general, the latter to a stringed instrument, or stringed instruments in general. As such, Jubal is traditionally regarded as the inventor of the flute (a word used in some translations of this biblical passage). Some early flutes were made out of tibias (shin bones). Playable 9000-year-old Gudi (literally, "bone flute"), made from the wing bones of red-crowned cranes, with five to eight holes each, were excavated from a tomb in Jiahu in the Central Chinese province of Henan.
The earliest extant transverse flute is a chi (篪) flute discovered in the Tomb of Marquis Yi of Zeng at the Suizhou site, Hubei province, China. It dates from 433 BC, of the later Zhou Dynasty. It is fashioned of lacquered bamboo with closed ends and has five stops that are at the flute's side instead of the top. Chi flutes are mentioned in Shi Jing, compiled and edited by Confucius.
Following the 16th century court music, concert flutes began appearing in chamber ensembles. These flutes were often tuned to the key of D, and used as the tenor voice. However, these flutes varied greatly in size and range. The recorder continued to be popular during the renaissance, but its use declined in the 18th century. The later half of the 18th century shows the first orchestras being formed, and the concert flute being a member thereof, featured in symphonies and concertos. Throughout the rest of the 18th century the interest in concert flutes increased, and peaked in the early half of the 1800s. In the 19th century, the ocarina was developed from the gemshorn, an instrument from the 16th century.
The 20th century saw a revival of the recorder, while the concert flute and tin whistle continued to be popular. The invention of plastics in the 20th century gave birth to the tonette, a fipple flute used in music education, but it soon fell out of use, replaced by plastic recorders.
The air stream across this hole creates a Bernoulli, or siphon, effect leading to a von Karman vortex street. This excites the air contained in the usually cylindrical resonant cavity within the flute. The player changes the pitch of the sound produced by opening and closing holes in the body of the instrument, thus changing the effective length of the resonator and its corresponding resonant frequency. By varying the air pressure, a flute player can also change the pitch of a note by causing the air in the flute to resonate at a harmonic other than the fundamental frequency without opening or closing any holes.
To be louder, a flute must use a larger resonator, a larger air stream, or increased air stream velocity. A flute's volume can generally be increased by making its resonator and tone holes larger. This is why a police whistle, a form of flute, is very wide for its pitch, and why a pipe organ can be far louder than a concert flute: a large organ pipe can contain several cubic feet of air, and its tone hole may be several inches wide, while a concert flute's air stream measures a fraction of an inch across.
The air stream must be directed at the correct angle and velocity, or else the air in the flute will not vibrate. In fippled or ducted flutes, a precisely formed and placed windway will compress and channel the air to the labium ramp edge across the open window. In the organ, this air is supplied by a regulated blower.
In non-fipple flutes, the air stream is shaped and directed by the player's lips, called the embouchure. This allows the player a wide range of expression in pitch, volume, and timbre, especially in comparison to fipple/ducted flutes. However, it also makes an end blown flute or transverse flute considerably more difficult for a beginner to produce a full sound than a ducted flute, such as the recorder. Transverse and end-blown flutes also take more air to play, which requires deeper breathing and makes circular breathing a considerably trickier proposition.
Generally, the quality called timbre or "tone colour" varies because the flute can produce harmonics in different proportions or intensities. The tone color can be modified by changing the internal shape of the bore, such as the conical taper, or the diameter-to-length ratio. A harmonic is a frequency that is a whole number multiple of a lower register, or "fundamental" note of the flute. Generally the air stream is thinner (vibrating in more modes), faster (providing more energy to excite the air's resonance), and aimed across the hole less deeply (permitting a more shallow deflection of the air stream) in the production of higher harmonics or upper partials.
Head joint geometry appears particularly critical to acoustic performance and tone, but there is no clear consensus on a particular shape amongst manufacturers. Acoustic impedance of the embouchure hole appears the most critical parameter. Critical variables affecting this acoustic impedance include: chimney length (hole between lip-plate and head tube), chimney diameter, and radiuses or curvature of the ends of the chimney and any designed restriction in the "throat" of the instrument, such as that in the Japanese Nohkan Flute.
A study in which professional players were blindfolded could find no significant differences between instruments made from a variety of different metals. In two different sets of blind listening, no instrument was correctly identified in a first listening, and in a second, only the silver instrument was identified. The study concluded that there was "no evidence that the wall material has any appreciable effect on the sound color or dynamic range of the instrument". Unfortunately, this study did not control for headjoint design, which is generally known to affect tone (see above). Controlled tone tests show that the tube mass does make a difference and therefore tube density and wall thickness will make a difference. One must also consider the inefficiency of the human ear to detect sound, vs electronic sensors.
In its most basic form, a flute can be an open tube which is blown like a bottle. There are several broad classes of flutes. With most flutes, the musician blows directly across the edge of the mouthpiece. However, some flutes, such as the whistle, gemshorn, flageolet, recorder, tin whistle, tonette, fujara, and ocarina have a duct that directs the air onto the edge (an arrangement that is termed a "fipple"). These are known as fipple flutes. The fipple gives the instrument a distinct timbre which is different from non-fipple flutes and makes the instrument easier to play, but takes a degree of control away from the musician.
Another division is between side-blown (or transverse) flutes, such as the Western concert flute, piccolo, fife, dizi, and bansuri; and end-blown flutes, such as the ney, xiao, kaval, danso, shakuhachi, Anasazi flute, and quena. The player of a side-blown flute uses a hole on the side of the tube to produce a tone, instead of blowing on an end of the tube. End-blown flutes should not be confused with fipple flutes such as the recorder, which are also played vertically but have an internal duct to direct the air flow across the edge of the tone hole.
Flutes may be open at one or both ends. The ocarina, pan pipes, police whistle, and bosun's whistle are closed-ended. Open-ended flutes such as the concert flute and the recorder have more harmonics, and thus more flexibility for the player, and brighter timbres. An organ pipe may be either open or closed, depending on the sound desired.
Flutes can be played with several different air sources. Conventional flutes are blown with the mouth, although some cultures use nose flutes. The Flue pipes of Organs, which are acoustically similar to duct flutes, are blown by bellows or fans.
The Western concert flute, a descendant of the 19th-Century German flute, is a transverse flute which is closed at the top. Near the top is the embouchure hole, across and into which the player blows. It has larger circular finger-holes than its baroque predecessors, designed to increase the instrument's dynamic range. Various combinations can be opened or closed by means of keys, to produce the different notes in its playing range. The note produced depends on which finger-holes are opened or closed and on how the flute is blown. There are two kinds of foot joints available for the concert flute: the standard C foot (shown above) or the longer B foot with an extra key extending the flute's range to B below middle C. There can also be a Bb below middle c foot joint added to the instrument. With the rare exception of the Kingma system, or custom-devised fingering systems, modern Western concert flutes conform to the Boehm system.
The standard concert flute is pitched in the key of C and has a range of 3 octaves starting from middle C (or one half-step lower with a B foot). This means that the concert flute is one of the highest common orchestral instruments, with the exception of the piccolo, which plays an octave higher. G alto and C bass flutes, pitched, respectively, a perfect fourth and an octave below the concert flute, are used occasionally. Parts are written for alto flute more frequently than for bass. Alto and bass flutes are considerably heavier than the normal C flute, making them more difficult to play for extended periods of time.
Other sizes of flute and piccolo are used from time to time. A rarer instrument of the modern pitching system is the treble G flute. Instruments made according to an older pitch standard, used principally in wind-band music, include Db piccolo, Eb soprano flute (the primary instrument, equivalent to today's concert C flute), F alto flute, and Bb bass flute (incidentally, the clarinet and brass families retain this orientation to a Bb, rather than C tonal centre).
The Indian Bamboo Flute, one of the instruments of Indian classical music, developed independently of the Western flute. The Hindu god Krishna is traditionally considered a master of the instrument. Krishna's flute is called Bansuri. The Indian flutes are very simple instruments when compared with their Western counterparts; they are made of bamboo and are keyless.
Pannalal Ghosh, a legendary Indian flautist, was the first to transform a tiny folk instrument to a novel bamboo flute (32 inches long with 7 holes for fingering) suitable for playing traditional Indian classical music, and also to bring to it the stature of other classical music instruments. The extra hole permitted 'madhyam' to be played which facilitates the 'meends' like M N, P M and M D in ragas like Puriya , Bihag and many others.
The Indian concert flutes are available in standard pitches. In Carnatic Music, the pitches are referred by numbers such as 1(C), 1-1/2(C#), 2(D), 2-1/2(D#), 3(E), 4(F), 4-1/2(F#), 5(G), 5-1/2(G#), 6(A), 6-1/2(A#) & 7(B) (The above is assuming the tonic note is C). However, the pitch of a composition is itself not fixed and hence any of the flutes may be used for the concert (as long as the accompanying instruments, if any, are tuned appropriately) and is largely left to the personal preference of the artist.
Two main varieties of Indian flutes are currently used. The first, the Bansuri, has six finger holes and one blowing hole, and is used predominantly in Hindustani music, the music of Northern India. The second, the Venu or Pullanguzhal, has eight finger holes, and is played predominantly in Carnatic music, the music of Southern India. Presently, the 8-holed flute with cross-fingering technique, is common among many Carnatic flautists. This was introduced by the eminent flautist T. R. Mahalingam in the mid-20th Century. Prior to this, the South Indian flute had only seven finger holes, with the fingering standard developed by Sharaba Shastri of the Palladam school, at the beginning of the 20th Century.
Based on his research on Bharata Natya Shastra's Sarana Chatushtai, Avinash Balkrishna Patwardhan in 1998 developed a methodology to produce perfectly tuned flutes for the ten thatas currently present in Indian classical music.
The quality of the sound from the flute depends somewhat on the specific bamboo used to make it, and it is generally agreed that the best bamboo grows in the Nagarcoil area in South India.

Dehydration in Adults
In this article
Dehydration in Adults Overview
Dehydration is a condition that occurs when the loss of body fluids, mostly water, exceeds the amount that is taken in. With dehydration, more water is moving out of our cells and bodies than what we take in through drinking.
We lose water every day in the form of water vapor in the breath we exhale and in our excreted sweat, urine, and stool. Along with the water, small amounts of salts are also lost.

The Daily Diabetes Care Checklist
When you have type 2 diabetes, it's often a juggling act to remember all of your daily tasks. Nora Saul, RD, CDE, a diabetes educator and manager for nutrition services at the Joslin Diabetes Center in Boston, offers this "healthy habits" checklist to guide you through the day. Check your blood sugar levels. Most people with type 2 diabetes need to check their blood sugar, also called glucose, at least once a day. "That's the minimum," Saul says. But the frequency depends on your treatment...
Read the The Daily Diabetes Care Checklist article > >
When we lose too much water, our bodies may become out of balance or dehydrated. Severe dehydration can lead to death.
Causes of Dehydration in Adults
Many conditions may cause rapid and continued fluid losses and lead to dehydration:
- Fever, heat exposure, and too much exercise
- Vomiting, diarrhea, and increased urination due to infection
- Diseases such as diabetes
- The inability to seek appropriate water and food (as in the case of a disabled person)
- An impaired ability to drink (for instance, someone in a coma or on a respirator)
- No access to safe drinking water
- Significant injuries to skin, such as burns or mouth sores, or severe skin diseases or infections (water is lost through the damaged skin)
Symptoms of Dehydration in Adults
The signs and symptoms of dehydration range from minor to severe and include:
- Increased thirst
- Dry mouth and swollen tongue
- Weakness
- Dizziness
- Palpitations (feeling that the heart is jumping or pounding)
- Confusion
- Sluggishness fainting
- Fainting
- Inability to sweat
- Decreased urine output
Urine color may indicate dehydration. If urine is concentrated and deeply yellow or amber, you may be dehydrated.
When to Seek Medical Care
Call your doctor if the dehydrated person experiences any of the following:
- Increased or constant vomiting for more than a day
- Fever over 101°F
Diarrhea for more than 2 days
Weight loss
- Decreased urine production
- Confusion
- Weakness

On the grad website I noticed that Erin has an apply now button different from the `official' one.
I'm pretty sure I know why. From the wiki the snippet of code to add that badge, is more or less (at the moment) for undergrads. Yes, that page points to the grad college where you click on their apply now badge.
It's because of this, they have their own that goes to the grad addmissions form.
I've created a `new' badge, so the only difference is the target of the link.
You can view it at http://euler.unl.edu.
I can see deparments that on the prospective ugrads pages putting the apply now badge. But why force grad students to to go a apply now page that is basically not for them, so why not use a badge for them?
If people thing this is a good idea, I'll commit things to the cvs.

Compact classic leather keeps everything where it needs to be. Easy slide out holder for ID for all those stores that insist on holding your ID
I ordered the Teal Zippered Checkbook and Card Holder and it was exactly as described. The leather is genuine and it looks so expensive - no disappointment at all. I plan to order other things from Leatherology in the future to give as gifts. So glad I found this company.
Beautiful leather, zipper works perfectly. Easy to order online, arrived on schedule. I will be back next time I need a product you have.
Nicely constructed zippered leather checkbook with slots for driver's license, credit cards and checks. Bought one of these from Leatherology, and another from another site. The Leatherology is clearly much better made, better finished, with better zipper. Though the other one was a bargain at a bit over $10.00, it was not nearly the same quality. Looks clear that the better made product will stand the test of time. They both look and smell similar, but the more expensive item is worth the extra price you pay. You usually get what you pay for...and you get many more color choices with Leatherology than other sites. The cheap one came only in brown, the leather was poorly finished and looks and feels a bit rough. My advice? Spend the extra money.
I think this is the greatest thing in the world. Keeps everything inside no checks or things slipping out. You can put a pen in and cards and DL if need be, and just take off with this. I want to order more. Different colors!! Have to save my money!!
High quality check book cover, packaged and shipped timely; cover and packaging well above average... Would recommend and purchase again...
My husband loved it and received wallet before our 12th anniversary.
Beautiful leather....very pleased with this product .
Love my new checkbook holder -- they are hard to find now days since hardly anyone but me apparently writes check anymore -- but thankfully this company still makes them and this one is perfect.
Thanks very much!!!
Excellent Quality and as advertised. I would like more places for credit cards on the other side.
This is my first purchase with Leatherology. I am very impressed with the product and the timeliness of delivery. I will be shopping with your company in the future. I want to thank you for the quality of the product and the service.
Good quality just as promised. Heavy zipper soft leather. Pen holder big for a fat pen. Big enough to hold receipts and several cards.
Looks good.
the title says it all:quality product!
I didn't realize that there is a slot for cash under the card slots so that was a nice surprise. It has just enough slots for all my cards and I love that it zips. My only complaint is even though the pen loop is elasticated if your pen is any bigger than a cross century the wallet won't zip. I wish the pen loop would be next to the checkbook. Also a slot on the outside of the wallet or more papers would be great to. Besides that it's perfect.
The pen holder fits all size pens and the zipper goes around the corners smoothly. The leather feels wonderful in your hands, soft and supple.
I have been searching for a quality checkbook cover and found this one at Leatherology. Exactly what I wanted, top quality leather, smooth zipper closure ! I highly recommend this product!
I love it. Looks and feels good. Even smells good. Well made. Worth every penny.
Teriffic piece of leather
It's very nice but the combination of a credit card holder and a checkbook holder is rather strange. It's very handy.
Fast and gorgeous!!
I was very pleased with this purchase, the quality is wonderful & I love the color. I also purchased this because it is slim and not bulky. Very nice!
A very nice product. My wife liked it a lot. I got something in gold put on the front: the lettering may be a little large for the wallet. I felt like it may take away from the femininity of it a little bit. Otherwise a very nice leather product.
The product is just what I wanted. My husband will be very pleased with the gift.
Overall love the product, only small problem, when pen is in there, zipper slightly hangs up. Otherwise, very nice.
My wife has needed a suitable checkbook for a long time (seems like years). By random I came across the Leatherology web site, and I purchased the 126.265. She loves it. There is room for driver's license, credit cart, checkbook, check book register, and her favorite pen. I really got some points for that gift.
Great buy good product
Great look, chic and sleek to have it in your purse. Just love it.
This checkbook wallet is exactly what I was looking for and the quality is what you would expect from items costing 2-3 times more! The wallet arrived quickly and was impressively packaged which is great if you are buying this as a gift! I will definitely go to the Leatherology site for any future leather purchases!
I have purchased several other products from Leatherology in the past. This item was no different, received in great condition, high quality, a perfect gift!
I ordered it as a Christmas gift as my sister ordered one for my mom and I do like it I hope my friend does as well. Very impressive presentation of the gift.
It was a little small but ok.
Excellent quality a product to be proud of. Excellent gift that is packaged nicely.
Excellent product, very high quality.
This item was received in a timely manner. It is of superior quality and exactly what I wanted. I would not hesitate to recommend this service to others looking for the very best in customer service.
We like it! it is simple and elegant! add quality material and craftsmanship is exactly what we looked for! thanks!
I was amazed at the quality of this wallet. The zipper is strong and the stitching is clean. I am very happy with my purchase and know it was worth every penny.
This is great little addition to my de-cluttering. The leather is great quality. I thought it came with a check divider but, no luck in returning it since I had it monogrammed.
This is exactly what I'd been looking for---love it
BEAUTIFUL - just perfect. I had it monogramed -made it just gorgeous. Thank you for your attention to detail and excellent workmanship.
This is just what I've been looking for! Beautiful leather, well constructed, zips smoothly and fits into my handbag. I plan to buy another and I'll be looking more closely at all of the Leatherology products.
Whether you are treating yourself or giving a gift to someone else, we want you to have an amazing and memorable experience. All items will be shipped using our signature gift packaging. Depending on the type and size, your item(s) will come wrapped in our signature microsuede sleeve, drawstring bag or soft velour bag (each with black tie accents), and be packaged inside a high-density bronze gift box.

The recent publication, in the American Journal of Epidemiology, addressing metal emission and urban incidence of Parkinson's disease underscores the public's growing concern that manganese, copper, and other metals may play a role as an environmental cause of Parkinson's disease. Willis et. al. in the investigated the relationship between copper, lead, or manganese emissions and Parkinson's disease. The study covered nearly 30 million Medicare beneficiaries, and ultimately concluded that urban Parkinson's disease incidence was greater "in counties with higher reported industrial releases with copper or manganese." The authors cited several weaknesses of their own study including other unaccounted for risk factors, and no direct environmental metal measurements. Furthermore, there was no way to determine whether patients had actual Parkinson's disease or just symptoms similar to Parkinson's (i.e. parkinsonism).
The dramatic rescue of thirty-three Chilean miners was all over the news last month. Miners have been known to have an increased risk of exposure to manganese, and this has led to the question as to whether miners and welders carry a higher risk of developing Parkinson's disease. Controversy has swirled around this issue in both medical and in legal circles, with several class action lawsuits, and one paper reporting the results of exposures in patients pursuing litigation (Racette, 2005)). It is therefore important to inform the public about the differences between typical (also known as "idiopathic") Parkinson's disease and parkinsonism due to manganese exposure.
Parkinson's disease is an entity that is usually diagnosed by an experienced neurologist following a detailed clinical history and examination that may reveal motor (tremor, stiffness, slowness, gait, balance difficulties, etc.) and also possibly non-motor dysfunction (loss of smell, depression, anxiety, cognitive decline, sleep disorder, bladder and bowel symptoms, sexual dysfunction etc.). Patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease usually respond well to levodopa or dopamine agonists. Brain MRI scans in Parkinson's disease are usually normal. Manganese exposure (in welders or in miners), in contrast, is known to have a largely different acute and chronic presentation.
Manganese toxicity and Parkinson's disease has been reviewed in an article published by Dr. Joseph Jankovic who is at the NPF Center of Excellence at Baylor College of Medicine, Houston TX (Jankovic, 2005). Dr. Jankovic points out that in acute manganese intoxication "cough and shortness of breath, as well as headaches occur early. This early phase is also manifested by nonspecific symptoms such as asthenia, somnolence, insomnia, anorexia, and loss of sexual drive, as well as behavioral manifestations, characterized by irritability, impulsiveness, belligerence, obsessive-compulsive behavior, hallucinations, and other psychiatric symptoms ("manganese madness"). Other psychiatric abnormalities may include pseudobulbar affect with emotional incontinence which is manifested by inappropriate laughing and possibly crying. Later, hypomimia (decreased facial expression), action tremors, dystonia, myoclonus, speech, gait and balance problems, and other parkinsonian features may emerge. A variety of neuropsychological abnormalities have been reported, even in early stages of manganese poisoning, but no consistent pattern of behavioral or cognitive abnormalities has emerged."
Patients with manganese toxicity usually have normal blood manganese levels unless acutely exposed, and they usually do not respond to dopamine replacement therapy (levodopa) or agonists. Additionally, manganese toxicity patients, unlike idiopathic Parkinson's disease, usually have characteristic MRI abnormalities.
The most important thing for patients who have worked as miners or welders to be aware of is the differences in clinical presentations, imaging studies, and response to medications. These differences usually help in the differentiation of manganese parkinsonism from Parkinson's disease. It is currently unknown and unexplored as to whether manganese exposure imparts a greater risk of the development of Parkinson's disease ("second hit environmental hypothesis"), and we hope more research will focus on this area in the future.
