Recipe by What a Dish!
"I love experimenting with recipes, and I came up with this one after a lot of experimenting with my favorite waffle recipe. These are more filling than your average waffles. I use aluminum-free baking powder. These are wonderful with homemade blueberry syrup."

eggs, beaten
1 3/4 cups
skim milk
1/4 cup
canola oil
1/4 cup
unsweetened applesauce
1 teaspoon
vanilla extract
1 cup
whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup
flax seed meal
1/4 cup
wheat germ
1/4 cup
all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons
baking powder
1 tablespoon
1/4 teaspoon
I give this recipe 5 stars for health and taste. I did not have pastry flour so I used whole wheat flour. I omitted the oil and replaced that 1 for 1 with extra apple sauce, used Splenda instead of sugar and added about 1 tsp of brown sugar. This reduced the overall fat to 6% and calories to 193 per serving (2 waffles). Thanks for the wholesome waffle recipe, will make often.
Way to much baking powder...I had stomach pains within 10 minutes of eating it and my husband ended up having stomach pains as well. Other than that, the flavor was just ok, they taste just like whole grain waffles, but nothing special. Wish I could give them a better review.

The only waffles I make anymore! This recipe is wonderful. They're not just good for healthy food, they are really really good. Crisp exterior, creamy interior. Freeze wonderfully -- I make a batch on the weekends and freeze leftovers, pop in toaster oven and they are perfect.
My substitutions - regular whole wheat flour instead of pastry and 1/4-1/2 c. of oatmeal for flaxseed meal. ( I have used both quick cooking and old fashioned. Both good. Old fashioned obviously adds a bit more texture)
Can't say enough good things about this recipe! Try it, you'll love it.
Very Yummy! I did not have the flax seed meal or wheat germ. I substituted virgin olive oil for the canola, and used 3/4 cup whole wheat flour, 1 cup white flour, and a generous 1/4 cup oatmeal. I also added 1 extra Tblsp sugar. These were great plain! Kids loved them plain as a snack or meal with fruits or syrup. Yum! Yum!
These are fantastic! I used all whole wheat flour and applesauce in place of the oil. Really filling and delicious. Made the buttermilk syrup recipe from this site - perfect combo. Recipe only makes six, so may want to dbl. if you want to freeze some. Thanks so much for submitting this!
Although I've always used a favorite from an old Farm Journal cookbook, this is the best waffle recipe I've ever tried and is now my new fave! My husband started making happy sounds after 2 bites and asked me to put another one on--that is a good sign at my house. My criteria for a good waffle is crispiness and flavor, and this one has both. The fact that it is healthy is a bonus. I didn't have wheat germ so I ground some old-fashioned oats. Great 5-star recipe Mitch103/What A Dish!
I was a little skeptical before making these waffles, but they turned out surprisingly light, filling, and delicious. They freeze well for a healthier alternative to Eggo's during the week. I train for marathons and have found these to be a great pre- or post- run breakfast. They're a new Saturday morning favorite.
Light, savory, and very very easy! I didn't have the flax seed meal or wheat germ, so just increased the flour a bit to compensate. And instead of the applesauce, mashed an over-ripe pear.

ORANGEBURG, S.C. -- The result in Saturday's critical South Carolina primary could turn on whether gender or class exerts a bigger influence on the outcome. The more class shapes the outcome, the better the odds for Newt Gingrich; for Mitt Romney, the same is true for gender.
Gender has not been a big factor in the Republican presidential race so far. But with all signs indicating that Gingrich has enjoyed a surge of support here after two strong debate performances this week, Romney advisers and independent analysts alike say the one factor most likely to save the former Massachusetts governor would be a tilt away from Gingrich among women, after the explosive allegations aired by his ex-wife Marianne in a television interview Thursday.
"It looked like men are splitting and then we're doing extremely well with women," said one top Romney aide. "We've got to drive women to the polls. We've just got to increase our numbers among women."
Meanwhile, Gingrich's best asset may be Romney's relatively weaker performance in the state among non-college and middle-income Republicans, many of whom are also evangelical Christians. For these voters, the week's intense focus on the tax rate Romney pays may reinforce existing doubts about his Mormon faith and commitment to conservative social causes.
"The tax issue, no question about it, it's a working-class issue," said the Romney adviser. "A lot of these people who are going to vote, they go to H&R Block to get their taxes done and they have no idea what tax rate they pay."
Most of the final public surveys here, including the Clemson University Palmetto Poll released Friday, showed Gingrich holding a small lead. But pollsters caution those surveys probably don't fully reflect any possible reaction to the interview with Gingrich's ex-wife-an impact that most observers here believe could play out primarily among women voters.
Iowa and New Hampshire, the first two contests on the GOP calendar, produced virtually no gender gaps for any of the major contenders, according to the exit polls conducted in both states. In Iowa, Romney carried 23 percent of men and 25 percent of women; in New Hampshire he drew 39 percent of men and 40 percent of women. Gingrich ran two points better among men than women in Iowa and one percentage point better. Even with the unusually large samples of exit polls, that's statistical noise.
The lack of a meaningful gender gap follows the pattern from previous GOP races. In the 2008 contest, Romney drew exactly the same 25 percent among men and women, according to a cumulative analysis of all the exit polls conducted by ABC News. John McCain, the eventual winner, also ran almost exactly equal among men and women. In both the 1996 and 2000 South Carolina primaries that effectively ended those contests, gender played essentially no role in the victories by Bob Dole and George W. Bush.
This time, though, some analysts believe gender could loom larger in the aftermath of ABC's interview with Marianne Gingrich, the former speaker's second wife. In the interview, she alleged that he asked her to accept an "open marriage" with the woman Gingrich eventually married as his third wife, Callista Bisek.
"I can't imagine a Republican evangelical woman looking at that interview and not being disturbed," said Whit Ayres, a Republican pollster who has worked extensively in South Carolina and is now unaligned in the race after initially supporting Jon Huntsman. "I would look like a hawk at the evangelical vote by gender Saturday night. There will be a yawning gender gap particularly among evangelicals, especially if Romney ends up eking this thing out."
Gingrich forcefully denied the allegations from his ex-wife and sweepingly denounced the media in a bristling answer to the opening question from moderator John King at Thursday night's CNN debate. That electrified the hall and ignited a standing ovation. But all the campaigns are watching to see whether the charges seed more doubts, particularly among South Carolina women, as that emotional moment fades.
"At the debate, he pulled a page out of Richard Nixon's playbook by attacking the media," the Romney adviser said Friday. "For last night's audience, it was very effective; the question is what happens as it beats on today. Women are more likely to break on him than anything."
In the Clemson University survey, conducted Wednesday and Thursday, Gingrich did run somewhat better with men than women and Romney the reverse, according to David Woodard, a political science professor and Republican consultant who supervised the poll.
The countervailing force in South Carolina's final hours is the potential for further erosion for Romney among blue-collar and middle-income voters amid the sustained focus on whether he will release his tax returns, and his disclosure that the effective tax rate he pays is close to 15 percent.

Mark Webber is chasing his third win in Monte Carlo while Sebastian Vettel wants his second...
For all the latest F1 odds on the Monaco GP, round six of the 2013 F1 Championship, visit Sky Bet.
Mark Webber:
Q: Describe the Monaco Grand Prix weekend in three words.
MW: Dramatic, glitz and busy.
Q: If you were a fan where would you watch the race from?
MW: I'd watch the left-right combination at the entry to the swimming pool, after Tabac
Q: What's your best memory of the Monaco GP?
MW: My first win in 2010 - it's right up there with my best memories of all time.
Sebastian Vettel:"Monaco is one of my favourite tracks and driving it is an absolute challenge. You can't even make the smallest mistake; if you do, you're lucky if it's just that your lap time is bad. If you're not paying attention, you'll end up in the barrier. Overtaking is possible, but only with risk - the best place for that is before the chicane. We come out of the narrow tunnel at more than 300kph and race to the first gear-chicane - whoever brakes later wins. Ideally you have a good qualifying session and start from far forward.

Cloud Computing for Service Providers
Offer Secure, Compatible and Resilient Cloud Services
Generate revenues by offering secure clouds that complement your enterprise customers' private VMware-based cloud infrastructures. Drive down the cost and increase the flexibility of your offerings with VMware virtualization, without having to reinvent the wheel. Join the VMware Service Provider Program (VSPP) and leverage the vCloud infrastructure platform and program benefits.
- Grow your revenue by offering secure public clouds that can run existing virtualized applications immediately, without needing internal developer resources to get started
- Differentiate your offerings by building on VMware's enterprise-cloud infrastructure platform
- Accelerate growth opportunities by partnering with VMware to gain broadest access to enterprise cloud computing spending
As organizations move toward private cloud infrastructures, many are also seeing the advantages of having some or all of their applications running on secure public clouds. As new applications are being developed, many are virtualized by default and therefore VMware "cloud-ready", making the transition even easier. As enterprises look for service providers, they are demanding the flexibility, scale and price-performance of cloud providers but don't want to scrap legacy applications and deal with cumbersome migration issues or retooling, recoding and retesting.
Enterprise Cloud Runs on VMware – Internally or Externally
VMware virtualization enables existing applications to be quickly and easily deployed on VMware infrastructure – whether in a customers' internal datacenter or externally at a service provider. Build and manage VMware compatible cloud computing services by pooling servers, networks and storage, making it easy for enterprise customers to run their virtualized applications in your cloud. Take advantage of the many capabilities that VMware vSphere and VMware vCloud Director software provide to reduce your cost of service through fine-grained infrastructure controls that offer predictable service levels. VMware software enables you to get the most out of your hardware to maximize profit and tap into future revenue opportunities from our technology roadmap.
Provide the Security Enterprise Customers Demand
VMware virtualization allows customers to document and audit security controls to demonstrate compliance with internal and external regulations. Our public cloud platform lets you deliver consistent and auditable security and performance through security features including VMware vCloud Networking and Security, layer 2 isolation, role-based access control and LDAP integration.
Guarantee Performance and Availability
Enterprises are looking for the flexibility to access additional capacity on an as-needed basis, for development and testing as well as production applications - but they are not willing to sacrifice performance or availability. VMware virtualization lets you deliver capacity on demand, with predictable performance and high availability at a competitive price point.

Saturday, June 02, 2001Johnson City, Tenn. -- Led by 2001 NCAA Division I First Team All-American Chris Wisler's 16th-place finish, the East Tennessee State men's golf team finished ninth at the 2001 NCAA Championship played at the Duke University Golf Course in Durham, N.C. The Bucs were 15-over after carding a four-round 1167 (293-289-292-293).

The three-time All-American captured the most electrifying shot of the week when he eagled the par-5 11th hole from approximately 150 yards. Senior Patrick Beste enjoyed the Bucs' best final round. He fired a 71 to finish the tournament tied for 46th (75-75-74-71--295). An All-Southern Conference honoree, Beste ranked third among all the players in par-5 scoring. He finished the tournament 9-under par on par 5s, averaging 4.44 strokes per hole. Sophomore James Johnson shot a fourth-round 73 and finished 29th after firing a 290 (73-72-72-73). Sophomore Adam Riddering (76-74-72-76--298) tied for 55th while classmate Thomas Lee (74-74-77-76--301) tied for 66th. For complete scoring information, please visit www.live.golfstat.com. Wisler and Johnson travel to Atlanta this week for a 36-hole event and a chance to qualify for the U.S. Open.

So that kind of sums it up in a nut shell about my job as for right now but like we say here in Mi wait 5min and it might change for the right amount of money any other questions or intrest in what I weld for fun u can shoot me a line.

I'm a welding engineering tech. (went to sait in calgary), and i'm currently doing quailty control work at a induction bending/induction heat treating/chromium carbide overlay shop in calgary, my duties range from checking measurements on welded spools to verifing the hardness levels on our induction hardened pipe, to also verifing the welding parameters on the overlay machines, and checking the microstructure of the overlay to make sure the operators aren't getting outside of the ranges to badly.

Amazing these put out that much bass. Recommend you push the limit of the RMS rating. These are power hungry if you want them to put out max bass. I have them running on a 50 watt rms amp with the bass boost turned on and all settings flat. With that they hit plenty hard. No sub needed Pros: Great bass for the size. Cons: Mid range a tad missing. Was this review helpful? Yes No Surprising Bass, Great sound Written By warp, Birmingham, AL on Friday, February 28, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Installed these into a generation 4 Camry to replace the OE speakers that were done. Wish I would've bought these years ago. The difference is night and day. Amazing bass from a 6 x 9 pair. It sounds like I have a single 10" subwoofer. Pros: Great sound. Great bass. Cons: No cons. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Only the best Written By David, Texas on Wednesday, January 29, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Got these for my 03 Mazdaspeed protege, note that the Mazdaspeed protege does not have 6x9s from the factory but the mounting brackets are there not the wiring though you will need to run wire to the back to have sound. Scary hugh magnets, good heavy magnets. Extremly well built, sounds amazing. What can I say Kickers are great. Pros: Great bass, decent highs and loves to be kranked up. Will not break up under pressure. Large magnets Cons: Mids are lacking a little bit but not enough to cause problems, large magnets. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Great Sound Written By MikeO, Fishers, IN on Tuesday, January 21, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) My 17 yr Old son loves them. Was this review helpful? Yes No Awesome Bass! Written By Albus, Smithfield, VA on Tuesday, November 05, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Terrific bass response from the Kicker KS69. I was measuring levels down to 50Hz. I am using the Kenwood Excelon KDC-X597 as a head unit and the built in amp has plenty of power for my 99 Civic. I have these paired with the Kicker 40CSS654 in the front and couldn't be happier. The install was a little tricky simply because of the design of the car but otherwise thrilled with the purchase. Pros: Fantastic mids and lows. Lots of power and handles broad range of frequencies. Cons: Little tricky installing in 1999 Honda Civic 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No 2005 Xterra Written By Adam, Oxford, MS on Friday, September 06, 2013 These speakers fit in perfectly, and have an amazing sound. They'll let you know how loose your door cards really are, and you may even consider not even needing an additional subwoofer for the trunk Pros: Easy installation, great price, huge driver Cons: None as of yet. Had 'em since last december. Was this review helpful? Yes No Kicker KS69 Written By Flawless, Ann Arbor, MI on Wednesday, July 17, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These are great speakers! I bought them for my Honda Civic and they fit great, no alterations needed, and the sound even better! The Kicker speakers have great lows and highs while the mid range is very similar to the factory speakers that I had previously (it is hard to mess up the mid range even on factory sets). But they were a great upgrade to my earlier pair. They are 100%worth the money and I would purchase more speakers from Kicker! 5 Stars! I have had these for about a month now and they still perform great with the pioneer stereo that I bought from these guys and they have a great high volume ability. All my friends believe that I purchased a sub in my car when it's my 6x9 Kicker speakers. Pros: Highs, Lows, Price, Loudness, Ease of installation, Just about everything Cons: Mids aren't anything too different but still good 6 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Great speakers, friends thought i had a sub! Written By Connor G, Ivyland, Pennsylvania on Wednesday, May 29, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) wow these guys are great, i have them paired with an aftermarket sony receiver which gives out only 17w RMS and these things sound like i have a huge sub in the trunk! after a lot of tweaking of the settings in my receiver, they were perfect. my 16 year old friend was shocked that they were just 6x9s, and the mids and highs are great. i even put them on top of a layer of dynamat xtreme and my rear deck is still vibrating! my rear view mirror will go crazy if a certain frequency hits. i have a '96 honda civic sedan Pros: handles lows great, very powerful speakers Cons: none that i know of yet 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No 1969 Camaro Written By Bill, Massapequa, NY on Sunday, May 12, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Used in rear deck of my 1969 camaro. I did not know what would be the best speaker to use. Allen was very helpful and recomended I use the Ks69. I ran these directly off a pioneer head unit, I did not want to use any amps. Once I hooked them up and adjusted the radio, they sound pretty good. Overall I am happy. Pros: Direct fit in 1969 camaro. Sound good. Cons: Hardware was missing from box, but they sent it right away. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Kicker KS69 Written By Gene, San Antonio on Tuesday, April 30, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I was amazed at how much of an improvement these speakers made to my factory's Infinity system! For the price I could not have had a better listening experience. Pros: All Pros Cons: No Cons Was this review helpful? Yes No 2005 Toyota Corolla Written By Frank, Pennsylvania on Wednesday, March 13, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Excellent. No complaints here. Was this review helpful? Yes No KS69 in 2003 Honda Accord Written By midlc, Fenton (St. Louis) MO on Saturday, February 16, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These speakers perform exactly as I expected. I listen to lots of pipe organ, symphony, and jazz music. It's nice to hear the low bass notes now! Pros: Excellent sound. Crisp highs, reinforced lows. Cons: These speakers don't really fit as well as indicated on the website. Only 2 of the 4 mounting holes line up, and they protrude about 1/2 "" too much off the rear deck to use the factory grills (as instructed). I think I can modify the grills to fit without damaging them. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Great base! Written By Mike, San Ramon, CA on Monday, January 28, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These speaker were easy to install (though the mounting holes did not line up perfectly in my 96 Mazda Protege) and provided great bass. I think they'd be better with more power (I'm not using an amp) but I'm really pleased for the price. Pros: Great bass. Cons: None, really... 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Excellent Speakers Written By EdH, Colorado on Saturday, December 29, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I have had these speakers in my Civic for over a year now . I have installed aftermarket audio in 5 of my vehicles over the years . The only speakers that impressed me more was the Boston Acoustics components I put in my old Mustang . I would make two suggestions for those looking to purchase these 1) Aftermarket HU these things crave power . 2) Although an aftermarket HU is good you should really hook these up to an amp to get the most from them . I would definetly buy these again and HIGHLY reccomend them Pros: Outstanding value Cons: none 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Pleasantly Surprised Written By AlanL, Escondido, CA on Tuesday, September 25, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I previously was running Rockford Fosgate Punch P-652 components in the front doors of my Xterra with an Alpine amp pushing 45 rms, and the bass response was nonexistent, mids were poor, and highs were fantastic. Sound quality was very good but i wanted something that was a little bit more well rounded. I was hesitant to switch to a coaxial speaker though, but friends always said great things about Kicker products and since the front doors fit 6x9's i figured it was worth a shot. Wow. I can't even describe how much better these sound than the Fosgate components that cost twice as much. These wont win any SQ competitions, but highs, mids and lows are all clearly defined and I just can't imagine getting more sound for the money. Also, these have the best bass response i have ever heard come out of a coaxial speaker. If you have a 6x9 opening in your car, i would give these a shot. Prepare to come away impressed. Pros: Bass response, a lot of bang for the buck Cons: Highs aren't as crisp as previous components, but that was to be expected. 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Kicker KS69 Written By clayton, 39503 on Friday, August 31, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These are by far the best 6x9thing speakers I ever heard. My friends thought I had subs. They really have some thump and clear sound the whole time triple a+ Pros: Great clear sound and great bass 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Perfect Fit. Written By Barrett B, Birmingham Al on Sunday, August 12, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Very easy install. Everything you need to wire and mount these speakers is in the box. First non Kenwood Speakers. Great bass, and miles better highs then the stockers. Pros: Easy install, Great Sound! Was this review helpful? Yes No Worth it Written By G M, Jacksonville, Florida on Monday, July 16, 2012 These are a great upgrade to any oem system. The woofer cones put out so much bass, when I added a small 8 inch sub the difference was very minute in bass response. All of my friends are impressed with the sond they produce. Also durable, I've put them to the test many times and I get very little distortion before it gets uncomfortable to be in the car. Tweeters add crisp high notes. Pros: Everything. Looks, Sounds, performance and durability Cons: None 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Nice upgrade Written By Ruben, San Jose, CA on Monday, June 04, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Bought these Kicker 6x9s to replace the factory speakers in the rear deck of my 2006 Honda Accord. So far I am happy, mid bass is tighter with overall more vocal and instrument clarity. Nice upgrade, about what I expected, not overly impressed but that is probably more due to the fact that these could benefit from more clean power from an amp than what the factory deck is providing. Pros: Nice large tweeter, efficient enough to replace oem speakers running straight from factory receiver. Cons: Probably need an amp to really get the most out of these. Also, these speakers are too high and the factory grills had to be modified with lots of plastic trimming so they could be reused. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Best Bang for your Bucks Upgrade Written By Rafael, Laurel, MD on Sunday, June 03, 2012 These speakers are the easiest and cheaper way to improve your sound system. My installation was for a Honda Accord Coupe 2003 to 2007. They sound way better than the factory speakers providing clear lows and highs. But, there are two things that you should be aware of before installing them. First, the factory speaker cover has to be trimmed to fit with the new speakers. Nothing hard to accomplish if you have a small rotary tool with a cutting disc. Second, only two of the four mounting screws line up with the new speakers. Luckily, these screws are cross patterned so your speakers will be mounted solid and will not rattle. Pros: Sound Clarity and Construction Cons: None 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Kicker KS69 in a 07 Saturn Aura rear Written By G.Cook, Denver Colorado on Thursday, May 31, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) A vast improvement over stock I have a new Kenwood x896 deck and the Kickers 69s work well without a amp and not planing to install one.The 69s are well worth the price.The install was straight foward thanks to crutchfield install work sheat for my car Thank Crutchfield.......... Pros: Nice sounding speaker . Cons: none 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No 1997 Civic LX Sedan Rear Speaker Replacement Written By Jim, Houston, TX on Monday, April 30, 2012 Replaced the paper cone factory 6x9s located in the rear deck with these. Also upgraded the fronts at the same time with some shallow-mount Infinitys. HU is an aftermarket Sony (CDX-GT740UI) that I installed a couple of years ago (which improved the sound coming from the factory speakers). The sound quality of these speakers is very good (esp for the price) even just running off the HU - I can turn up the volume louder than I could with the original speakers. The "stuffiness" of the original speakers is gone. An external amp would make these things really sing (true for any aftermarket speaker upgrade to provide clean power and avoid amp clipping), but that's a purchase for a later date. For now, I am happy with these. The installation was easy - the screw holes lined up with the original ones in my deck and the speaker wiring harness adapter from Crutchfield made the wiring a snap (literally). I did add some foam along the edge of the speaker between the mating surface and the metal deck and also along the outer edges of the plastic deck covering to prevent some rattles (which seems to be working). Once an amp is in place, vibration damping material will be needed, most likely (the metal deck skin is awfully thin....), but I'll cross that bridge when I get there. For now - very happy! Pros: sound quality, runs well off an aftermarket HU power, easily installed (in my car) Cons: none yet 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Just Awesome Written By Long, Acworth, GA on Monday, March 26, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I installed this set of speakers in the rear deck of my 04' Buick LeSabre to replace the factory paper cones. The installation was fairly straight forward, though the rear deck cover was a pain to remove. The speakers fit the factory insert perfectly but the magnets hang down a bit too low to clear the trunk lid tension bars... Spacers are needed to achieve this. I could not be more pleased with the results for the money - these speakers sound awesome! I actually have the bass on my head unit turned down to level 2 (out of 6) because any higher is just too much bass for most music. I listen to everything from classical to pop to rock and all sound fabulous over the Kickers. These speakers are powered by the factory head unit, which is nothing special (GM / Delco brand). The Crutchfield tech told me that my factory unit would not provide enough power and most likely distort, though I have not found that to be the case. Buy these speakers (or anything from Kicker, for that matter). You will not be disappointed. Pros: Awesome bass! Crystal clear sound. Didn't break the budget. Cons: Highs could be a bit crisper but honestly a non issue for the price. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Kicker KS69 Written By Carlos M. Bravo, San Juan P.R on Monday, March 26, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Exellent Was this review helpful? Yes No Amazing speakers for the dollar! Written By Damien, San Antonio, TX on Sunday, March 25, 2012 I bought these to replace the worn OE rear speakers on my 99 Civic hatch. I liked how they sounded on the store demo and the price was within my budget. The quality is very good and they fit right in with no modifications. When I turned on the radio I could tell a difference right away. The sound was much more crisp with better high notes. The bass is also there and it doesnt distort the mids or highs. If you dont want a subwoofer but dont want to miss out on bass I would recommend these. Of course they wont rattle your mirrors but they have such good sound quality you wont believe theyre this affordable. Aftermarket speakers usually dont play bass notes since they are meant to be paired with a woofer but these play low notes! I have factory speakers in the front and I cant even tell theyre there anymore. Sometimes I mess with the fader to see if my fronts are even working! 4 years later I have them in a 97 Accord and they still sound great. I would definitely recommend these to anyone looking for a cheap but good upgrade. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AN AFTERMARKET RADIO WITH THESE. The factory radio will not pump enough power to hear the sound quality these can produce. Pros: Perfect fit great highs great mids great lows for an aftermarket speaker Lasted me 4 years and still going Cons: None so far. Keep in mind they are higher than factory speakers. The factory speaker grille on my 97 Accord doesnt seal completely, im only using the 2 side screws but it still works fine. On the 99 Civic the top grill didnt interfere. 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Kicker KS69 Written By Anonymous, santa rosa, ca on Saturday, March 17, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The speakers were installed into the rear deck of my 1999 Honda Accord. Installation was pretty easy. Two of the four screwholes aligned with the holes in the Honda. The other two screws were drilled into the speaker from the trunk side of the deck using self tapping screws. The sound is clean and a huge improvement over the worn out factory speakers. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Get these Written By MRL, Nashville on Saturday, March 17, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) No downside to these - competitively priced, easy to install, sound great. bass is not subwoofer quality, but you can at least hear lows Pros: top quality for price (although only had them for a few weeks) Cons: none yet 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Great Undistorted Bass and Mid's Written By hippomachine, Detroit, MI on Tuesday, March 13, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought these speakers spur-of-the-moment, and couldn't be happier. The bass they give isn't distorted and the mids are very clear. I have them installed in the rear deck of my car, right next to my new Kenwood 3-way 4"speakers. Together these speakers work perfect, covering all ranges. P.S. My headunit gives these speakers a nice amount of power (about 50w rms) so keep that in mind when buying these. I can't wait to get an amp and use them to their true potential! Pros: Bass Design Clarity Price Cons: Little bit hard to fit correctly. Crutchfield sent the wrong adapter (got it to work). 5 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No made of WIN Written By Keiff.T., Erie,PA on Sunday, November 27, 2011 Installed these as a factory replacement in my 92 beretta. Unamped they where nice and chrisp but lacked lower mid and low freqs. Once amped these speakers perform vary well. Knowing these are not bass oriented drivers, the lack of extreme lows is understandable, and expected. If your looking for a tight, good high to lower mid range 6x9, these are the ticket. Pros: Awesome mid to high range, Tight response even at high volume levels Cons: Didn't come with a subwoofer 1 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No WOW Written By BenB, Maine on Sunday, November 20, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) After a year and a half of subpar sound in my 99 civic i finally decided to upgrade my speakers. I had never done it before and had no idea what i was looking for... that is until a friend directed me to crutchfield. They made its so easy to find what would work in my car and i came across these. After readin the reviews i decided they would be worth the price... and after a week ive realized how much of an understatement that was! They sound absolutely INCREDIBLE. Clear as can be with some pretty decent bass. Theyre so loud i cant even hear my front speakers! Even my friend, who has been installing this stuff in cars for years, said these sound better than his. Thank you crutchfield! Pros: Incredible sound 7 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Great Sound Written By Evan S., Nashville,TN on Tuesday, November 15, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These speakers are a huge improvement over my original set in my '02 Grand Prix. Great bass even going through a stock head unit and no amplifier hooked up. Really pleased with the clarity and performance of these speakers Pros: Really good bass for 6x9 speakers 5 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Grand Cherokee Infinity Replacement Written By Ron L., Chesterfield, VA on Thursday, October 06, 2011 After a bit of research, I chose these Kickers to replace the partially blown factory 6x9s in the front doors of my 99 Grand Cherokee with the Infinity Gold system. The specs show these to have about the lowest frequency response of most 6x9 full range speakers, and since the factory system used this door location as low freq. woofers, I thought that it was a good choice. Unfortunately, I get the exact same distortion that I was getting out of my partially blown factory 6x9s with only moderate bass and moderate volume. I'm thinking that I would have been better off buying the cheap quality paper cone replacements from the dealer. They worked fine for years. Very disappointed. 1 out of 25 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No EPIC Written By Sean T., Colorado on Thursday, September 29, 2011 I got these speakers to install in my 1998 Honda Civic HX coupe. It took a while getting the rear seats and side panels off but I got it and they fit in no problem. The screw holes all lined up correctly and the provided wiring harness was great! After installing them, I just sat in my car and listened to music because I couldn't believe the quality of these speakers! Get them!! 4 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Great Sounding Speakers! Written By BrianT, Macon, GA on Saturday, September 03, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Car - 2007 Honda Accord Coupe Pros: These speakers sound great, especially with the KS600 in the door and an amp pushing them! The sound is rich and very clear, 100 times better than factory. Cons: The only problem is fitting these in, the holes in the speaker do not exactly line up with the holes in the rear deck on an 07 Accord. Also, the factory grille cover will not snap down over the speakers if you mount them from the top(unless, you do some trimming to the grille). The solution was to get a drill open the holes in the speaker up a bit and mount them from underneath, a real pain, but well worth the improvement over the factory speakers. 5 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Amazing Value, perfect pair with components Written By SpinDoctor15, Washington, D.C. area on Wednesday, August 31, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These 6x9s ROCK. I outift my 2005 Honda Accord with KS6.2's in the front doors and these KS69's in the rear deck above the trunk. I left head unit stock, to simplify my upgrades. The combination of an all-Kicker speaker setup is simply incredible. My factory speakers were muddled and washed out, with no reasonable definition. I knew every crescendo, thump, and hi-hat hit in my tunes, having listened to them for years, and these speakers brought all of those sounds right back to life. These Kicker speakers catch ALL the details, and push out sound like there's no end to it! If you want sound clarity/accuracy, detail, warmth or richness, and power, look no further. Simply comparing the magnet sizes (and overall weight) of the Kicker speakers with the stock [cheap] speakers is enough to know that you're going to be in for some seriously great music! I highly recommend these high-quality and excellent-sounding speakers for any application. Have no fear, your system WILL sound awesome. 6 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Good value; pain to install Written By Allen, CT on Saturday, August 20, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Just installed these in a 1997 Honda Accord. Royal pain to install; the holes do not line up well and are not slotted to allow for any tweaking of the position. Fixed with a Dremel and a lot of fine tuning, but the mount points are pretty standard and these don't line up well at all. As for the performance, nice clean sound but less bass than I expected. They are very tight and sound good, but I opted for these hoping for a little more low-end punch. I am still tweaking the settings, but some of the bass response may be due to a new head unit and a learning curve. They are very well balanced, but are not really big bass producers. I would buy these again, just be aware they may require some power tool intervention to mount. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

I replaced the factory speakers in an older car that we decided to keep driving. This was a really good decision. Paired with a new Kenwood reciever, we are enjoying clear, clean and powerful sound from bluetooth and usb devices as well as cds and radio.

Slimline Phone 18 18
average 60s phone one of the number's sticks-have to use another telephone January 5, 2014
great extra phone We needed a plug in land line in case the electricity goes out and we can't use the cordless phones. This one is perfect for the price; nothing extra, but you can turn off the ringer and it lights up when it rings; November 11, 2013
Slim line phone I wanted a simple phone to have in my basement- no bells and whistles. This is the one for a spot that doesn't need an answering service, caller ID, etc. October 28, 2013
My Slimline Phone My new phone sits on the ledge above my small eating table in my kitchen, where it is a perfect fit. It is just the right size for my hand and easy to move around when needed. I love it. October 25, 2013
Lightweight Phone Cheap in appearance I was hoping for a quality product, but was dismayed to see, that the phone looks and feels very inferior, to the wall phones I had in the past. Would not recommend this product. September 27, 2013
I can hear it ringing! I HAVE a slimline phone, it has been attached to my land line for years. But, a while ago, it stopped ringing. I tried to repair it but could not. So, when a similar phone was offered at such a reasonable price, I bought one -- same size, same color, everything new. What a good idea. And it rings! When the power fails here, and our cell phones are out of juice and out portable phones need a place to plug in, this phone keeps on working. It even lights up with independent power from Verizon. My advice: don't give up your land line -- and get a slimline. September 20, 2013
A good phone is hard to find First of all, it's hard to plug the cord into the jack, as the jack is recessed in a narrow spot on the phone. Those of you with big fingers, be forewarned. More than this, the ring is HORRIBLE and ear-splitting. Sorry, phones didn't ring like this in the good old 1960s when the Slimline came out. The only two ring settings on this phone are "on" and "off'; there's no way to adjust the sound. Looks like I need to try yet another phone! July 21, 2013
Slimline Phone are still around! I have searched in local stores for the slimline phone of a certain style. I'm happy to see that Vermont Country Store is offering these and some other older version phone styles that I love as well. I love nostalgia items of days gone by. Thank you! :-) June 9, 2013

Our son owns a Millermatic 180 MIG machine. We want to surprise him with the Spoolmate 100 spoolgun for his birthday, as we know he wants to do some aluminum welding.
What else does he need besides the spoolgun to weld aluminum?
Does it require a different gas? If so, does this different gas also weld steel? Or, will he need to keep two different gas tanks at home ... one for welding steel and one for welding aluminum?
Thanks in advance for any info.

First you guys are great parents! I would be beyond stoked to get welding gear for a gift, especially something like a spool gun.
He will also need pure argon for the shielding gas to welding, but this will not work for steel. He will need to keep his 75%/25% argon/co2 mix for steel welding. Also he will need aluminum filler wire.
Welcome Ryan,
he will need 2 different gas tanks:
1- For steel a Argon/Co2 mix
1- Aluminum- 100% Argon
Does the 180 he have have the ability to accept the Spoolgun?
Some of the early models requires a retro fit kit
"For the Millermatic 140/180, prior to serial #LH210051N, use retrofit kit #300409"

MM180/Spoolmate100: Different Gas Needed For Aluminum ??
As stated above y'all are some awesome parents. Also as stated above he will need two different shielding gasses. The biggest cost for gasses are the initial purchase/lease on the tank. After that its relatively cheap to refill. Big appreciation he will give you on that. He will also need some cleaning supplies. A few stainless steel wire brushes( for alum only) and some acetone or denatured alcohol to prep the aluminum. Maybe get him a new regulator for his shielding gas, oh and a new auto darkening helmets are ALWAYS a successful gift. Maybe some leathers too. Some aluminum material would be helpful as well. Gotta have the metal to practice if your gonna get to Carnegie Hall.
Sounds like I'm making my X-mad list already.

Thanks for the quick replies, guys.
I went down to the garage and looked at his welder .... serial number is LJ200082N. I'm going to assume that this is the later model, and does not need the stated retrofit kit.
Dang, I see the list price is now $276 for the spool gun. Seems to me, it was under $200 not too long ago?? Lol. I hope the local welding supply shop, where he bought the machine, will knock some bucks off that list price for my wife and I.
Thanks again.

Hi Ryan.
I agree - great present for your son. The spool gun should plug in, based on that serial number. I would suggest the largest argon tank you can safely handle, probably an 80-125 cf.
Try to contact a local fab shop and ask for their aluminum drops. He is going to need a lot of practice material and it is too expensive for most of us to buy new sheets and shapes to practice on. They may give you plenty if you explain it is for your son, or they may charge a very nominal fee. If you brought them some pizza at lunch time or beer at closing time you will probably get more than enough.
That and some aluminum filler wire should get him started!
BTW, if you post your location you may have some members close by that will be happy to help you and your son.Burt

Thanks again for all the info, guys. We are buying the gun, etc for our boy. Our local welding supply shop does not stock it. I'm going to order online (CyberWeld).
One more question .... maybe impossible to answer without more information from me ..... but, what diameter aluminum wire should I buy to get him started: .030 or .035? And, I assume 4043, not 5356 aluminum wire?
We know he wants to build stuff from beer kegs.
Thanks in advance if you are able to make any suggestions.

|Emblem of the Romulan Star Empire, c.2368
The Romulan Star Empire (or simply Romulan Empire) was a major intragalactic empire from the 22nd through 24th centuries, encompassing the Romulan people and their subject worlds and species. The Empire was known for its xenophobic character and policies of extreme secrecy and territorial protectionism. By the late 24th century, the empire had gained prestige in interstellar politics and diplomacy.
History Edit
See: Romulan history
- See also: Romulan planets, Romulan Neutral Zone
The Romulan Star Empire had borders with the United Federation of Planets, the Klingon Empire, and the Cardassian Union. The Federation-Romulan border was defined by a fixed border known as the Romulan Neutral Zone. (TOS: "Balance of Terror", DS9: "In the Pale Moonlight") There was also a distant Romulan border near the outer edges of the Alpha Quadrant, in a region of space where Starfleet starships operated on deep space missions in the 2370s. (VOY: "Message in a Bottle")
As an expansionist power, the Romulan Star Empire claimed vast tracts of space that were outside its effective authority, for example Sector 25434. These claims were not recognized by other governments. (TNG: "Tin Man") In the mid-22nd century, the Romulans used cloaked mines to assert new territorial claims. (ENT: "Minefield") The Romulans believed their destiny to be the domination of the entire Milky Way Galaxy. (TNG: "The Enemy")
Subject species Edit
Politics Edit
In external application, Romulan political agendas appeared largely unified over the centuries. Their goals focused on maintaining Imperial security through vigilance, and negating the perceived advantages of their rivals. Both goals were accompanied by a near-paranoid reticence to reveal information, even facts as basic as their racial identity, that might illuminate other Romulan ambitions or motivations. Short of war, the means to those ends have generally varied between favored methods:
- Surreptitious political disruption of rivals – as in the secret relationship with V'Las of the Vulcan High Command in the 2150s, participation in the Khitomer conspiracy of 2293, secret alliances both with the Klingons- such as in the House of Duras from the 2340s or against the Klingons, or the aborted attempt to replace key Starfleet officers with clones in the late 24th century. (ENT: "Kir'Shara"; Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country; TNG: "Sins of the Father", "The Mind's Eye"; Star Trek Nemesis)
- Limited, surprise or covert military action – as in the use of telepresence-operated drone-ships to spark the "Babel Crisis" among neighboring powers in 2154, a single Bird-of-Prey used to attack the Federation border and gauge its weaknesses in the Neutral Zone incursion of 2266, or the attack on the Klingon outpost at Narendra III in 2344. (ENT: "Babel One", "United"; TOS: "Balance of Terror"; TNG: "Yesterday's Enterprise")
The Empire did resort to open warfare when it was deemed necessary, but in typical fashion, their reasons for war were less than candidly expressed, as in the Earth-Romulan War and the enigmatic Tomed Incident of 2311. Unlike the Klingon objectives of the Federation-Klingon War (2267), Romulans do not appear to have gone to war with neighboring powers under a flag of "expansion", and no competition existed for the development of Class M worlds along the Romulan Neutral Zone. Romulans expressed little resentment for the negotiated Zone they zealously guarded, and following their conflicts, the Empire withdrew behind the safety of the buffer for many decades of self-imposed isolation from Federation affairs. (TOS: "Balance of Terror", "Errand of Mercy", "The Trouble with Tribbles"; TNG: "The Neutral Zone")
After a clone intended to replace decorated Starfleet Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Shinzon, turned on the Romulans and committed a coup in 2379, the Federation (including Picard himself) helped stop Shinzon's plans of interstellar domination. The Romulans at that point suggested that an era of warmer relations may be beginning with the Federation. (Star Trek Nemesis)
Government Edit
The Romulan Star Empire was ruled by the Romulan Senate, which was overseen by the Praetor. The Continuing Committee was another powerful government body the praetor presided over. In 2373, Q considered the Romulan empress as an adequate mate. (DS9: "Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges"; VOY: "The Q and the Grey"; Star Trek Nemesis)
The Romulan Senate dispatched ambassadors from time to time, including Caithlin Dar to the Planet of Galactic Peace and Nanclus to the United Federation of Planets. (Star Trek V: The Final Frontier; Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
Military Edit
- Main article: Romulan military
- See also: Romulan uniform, Romulan ranks, Romulan starships
The Romulan military is a powerful and technologically advanced force encompassing both spacefaring and ground forces. (TNG: "Unification II") Despite being defeated by Earth in the Earth-Romulan War of the 2150s, the Romulan Star Empire continued to be a powerful presence, not afraid to tempt Starfleet by entering the Neutral Zone. Romulan forces were a deciding factor in the Dominion War, whose entry in 2374 turned the tide of war in favor of the Allies. (TOS: "Balance of Terror"; DS9: "In the Pale Moonlight")
Romulan military operations are supported and planned by the War Plans Council, a high-level government agency.
Besides regular forces, the Romulan Tal Shiar also has its own fleet of starships, and are a ruthless and powerful organization within the Empire and beyond.
Science and TechnologyEdit
The Romulan Ministry of Science oversaw the scientific research of the Romulan Star Empire. The Romulan Astrophysical Academy was a division within the Romulan science community. (DS9: "When It Rains..."; VOY: "Eye of the Needle")
After the brief Romulan-Klingon Alliance in 2268, the Romulans exchanged their cloaking technology for the D7-class battle cruisers. (TOS: "The Enterprise Incident")

Appendices Edit

Background information Edit
The double-headed bird of prey emblem of the Romulan Star Empire was first introduced in "The Neutral Zone". The symbol was designed by Monte Thrasher. (The Official Star Trek: The Next Generation Magazine, Vol. 12, p. 54) A Romulan emblem was seen in "The Enterprise Incident", though it was never used again. [1]
Location of the EmpireEdit
In dialogue, the Romulan Star Empire has been exclusively referred to as an Alpha Quadrant power. It has also been stated that the space of the Romulan Empire was surrounded by the territories of the Cardassians, Klingons and the Federation.
The first time this fact began to be established occurred in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, in the episode "The Search, Part II", where the Romulan Star Empire was identified as one of the great powers of the Alpha Quadrant. For the Dominion, there were four great powers in this quadrant: the Federation, the Klingons, the Romulans and the Cardassians. With the Battle of the Omarion Nebula, two of these threats had been reduced in effectiveness - the Romulans and the Cardassians. By "Call to Arms", the Cardassians were in an alliance with the Dominion and three powers, small and great, had signed non-aggression pacts with the Dominion. These powers were the Miradorns, the Tholians, and the Romulans. In the opinion of Odo, the Dominion was ...making impressive inroads into the Alpha Quadrant....
In "In the Pale Moonlight", it was revealed that the Dominion forces were crossing the Cardassian-Romulan border and were launching attacks against Federation ships from there. The Dominion was secretly planning to invade Romulan space from Cardassia, and, by their estimation, the Romulans would be defeated in three weeks. When Benjamin Sisko was attempting to persuade Senator Vreenak to consider having the Romulans join the offensive against the Dominion, Sisko said "I'd pick the side most likely to leave us in peace when the dust settles. Maybe you're right. Maybe the Dominion will win in the end. Then the Founders will control what we now call Cardassia, the Klingon Empire and the Federation. So, instead of facing three separate opponents with three separate agendas, you'll find yourselves facing the same opponent on every side. There's a word for that. Surrounded".
The association of Romulus with the Alpha Quadrant was carried over to Star Trek: Voyager. In "Flashback", Captain Kathryn Janeway reminisced about what it would be like to live in James T. Kirk's era, with "The Alpha Quadrant still largely unexplored." and "Romulans hiding behind every nebula". In "Message in a Bottle", a section of the Romulan border was identified to be located near the edges of the Alpha Quadrant. In "Bliss", when it seemed that the USS Voyager would find a way back home, Tom Paris stated that he looked forward to encountering Cardassians, Ferengi and Romulans again in the Alpha Quadrant. In "Flesh and Blood", Chakotay identified the Romulan disruptor as an Alpha Quadrant weapon. In "Q2", in a simulation, several Alpha Quadrant species were fighting over mining rights to a planetoid, and Q Junior had to find a way to settle the dispute. The species listed were the Nausicaans, the Bolians, the Cardassians, the Romulans, the Ferengi, and the Bajorans.
In virtually all reference works however, the Romulan Star Empire has been depicted or stated to be located in the Beta Quadrant with a border only with the Federation and the Klingon Empire. These books include such works as the Star Trek Encyclopedia (3rd ed., p 43, 393), Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Technical Manual (page 2), Star Trek: The Next Generation Technical Journal (page 9), Star Trek: The Next Generation Writers' Technical Manual (page 20), Star Trek: Voyager Technical Manual (page 27) and Star Trek: Star Charts (pages 45, 55, 56, etc.). Even reference works that date back to a time before the Alpha and Beta Quadrant distinction was invented depict the Romulans in the area that would later on be classified as the Beta Quadrant. These include such works as the Star Trek Star Fleet Technical Manual (T0:02:07:00) and Star Trek Maps (Chart A). Only one of these reference works graphic was reused on screen in an appearance as an illegible display graphic on a PADD in Star Trek: Insurrection. [2] [3] The information on the PADD, though, was completely illegible on screen. [4]
Apocrypha Edit
In many novels of the TOS-era, such as in Diane Duane's Rihannsu series, the Romulans are synonymously called "Rihannsu." Their home star is Eisn, known to Humans as 128 Trianguli.
In the video game Star Trek: Encounters, the Romulans mostly play the villain role in the levels based on Star Trek: The Next Generation. However, in the game's last level, a temporal anomaly near Earth causes the USS Defiant to briefly appear in an alternate timeline where the Romulan Empire has conquered the Federation.
In Star Trek Online, the Empire is in a state of inner turmoil after the destruction of their homeworld due to a supernova. They are now led by Empress Sela and blame the Federation for the destruction of their home planet, an event that led to a renewal of hostilities between the Romulan Empire and the Federation. Members of the Reman resistance and the Vulcan reunification movement have also established a Romulan Republic on "New Romulus" as a democratic state, allied with the Federation and the Klingon Empire in opposition to Sela's dictatorial regime. The new Romulan Republic play a major role in STO's first expansion, Legacy of Romulus.
