Overview Reviews Details Accessories Articles & Videos by Tim Sprinkle Looking to add a splash of color to your dash? Then fix your gaze on the high-definition Organic EL display on Eclipse's CD7000 CD player. More vivid than standard displays, it complements the stereo's motorized, slide-open faceplate with a striking array of background images and eye-catching animations. Best of all, you can put the display to the test with Eclipse's "Area Shot" feature, showing off trip directions with color maps, a moving vehicle icon, points of interest, and more, right from the dash. Circle Surround II sound processing allows you to create a realistic surround sound effect in the car, no matter where your speakers are located. Eclipse DSP gives you access to a 7-band parametric EQ and time alignment capability. Pair all that control with the CD7000's powerful onboard amp, and you've got a recipe for outstanding sound quality from all your recordings. The CD7000's Memory Stick input adds a convenient storage option for your MP3 and WMA music files. Add an optional SIRIUS satellite radio to get 120+ channels of music, sports, news, and entertainment, or use the optional iPod interface to control your iPod right from the stereo's faceplate. You can even upgrade your AM/FM experience with the optional HD Radio tuner. An auxiliary input is on hand for your portable music player. Three sets of preamp outputs make it easier to build a full amp/sub system, and the high-powered 5-volt signal ensures clean sound from all your speakers. Subwoofer controls let you manage your bass right from the driver's seat, while five selectable filter settings allow you to optimize speaker performance. Traveling with a crowd? The wireless remote lets everyone get in on the game.

Yes No Eclipse has done it again Written By Alan, Atlanta, Georgia on Monday, November 13, 2006 I bought the Eclipse CD7000 HU because I had an Eclipse 5303R from about nine or ten years ago. Along with a new CD Changer, I also bought the Sirius Satelite Radio, the GPS Area Shot unit and IPOD Adapter. The Eclipse HU takes a while to get used to. It is so different in the way it functions from my older Eclipse HU, but of course it has a lot of features built right into it. Once you understand how it functions, it is really easy to set up. However, this is the first HU I have ever owned, where I actually had to read the manual to understand its operation. It can seem very complicated at first, but once you play with it and understand the logic behind it, it works great. I love the Memory Stick option that is built in. It allows you to customize the sound adjustments in your car, download maps and wallpapers, etc., via the internet website. The Area Shot is a great little feature and I strongly suggest getting the GPS unit, otherwise the built in Area shot is of little use. The CD Changer is great and even over speed bumps, there are no skips. The sound is crystal clear. I only wish the manual was a little clearer and a little bit more detailed for some of the features. You have to interpret and figure out some of the details from trial and error. Otherwise it is a creat little HU and a great value. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Eclipse CD7000 Written By Juan, San Diego, Ca on Thursday, October 05, 2006 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I have tried many head units from different companies over the past few years. This is the one that I have been truly pleased with. If you want a headunit that will not only provide you with great SQ, but also with extensive sound tuning capabilities, this is the one. I recommend getting the tuning microphone as it will allow you to find and tame peaks in your system through the HU itself or by using the Eclipse website. The only thing that takes a little getting used to are the controls inside the volume knob. The shortcut function is great as you can pick which function you want. Overall this is a great headunit. 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No WOW!!! Written By William, Apex, NC, USA on Friday, August 11, 2006 Great head unit. Unlimited possibilities with the add customizations and accessories that can be added. Clear sound. Well worth the price. 2 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Nice Written By Dario, Yakima, WA on Wednesday, June 21, 2006 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Head unit is nice. Price is somewhat in the high range but this unit abounds with sound customization features and others that you get with optional accessories. For example, I installed the optional ipod interface and the GPS unit for this system. Areashot pretty accurate at guiding the driver. All in all this is a nice unit (Face does stick out a little to far out though). Very nice sound (with SRS). Would recommend with GPS accessory. But then again, that would drive the price up to about $900. And if you are an Ipod fanatic, I recommend the interface ($120). So there you have it; about a grand to benefit from almost all of the capabilities this stereo has to offer. 5 out of 8 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No So So Written By Adam, Oklahoma City on Friday, June 09, 2006 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) My first impression was I can't believe I just spent 700 dollars on this thing because I couldn't see where all the money is in the unit. Screen was clear and nice and bright but no tilt feature. Has many features for sound improvement but still I couldn't see 700 dollars worth. The wheel is huge, and the face plate really sticks out far. When opening the unit to insert a CD it swings down real far. Anyways the unit functioned as it was suppose to but I still can't see 700 dollars for this unit. 24 out of 48 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

The display's image quality provides clear, detailed map displays, as well as background motion displays and slide shows. The brightness of the display is adjustable in 8 steps. Display Pattern Options: The unit gives you a choice of six display patterns or you can import your own images: Normal: The default screen displays a background image with an information bar at the top and the track/station information in the center. On Screen: This screen shows the track/station information on the bar at the top over a background image. Full Screen: The full screen displays the background image only. Spectrum Analyzer: You can choose a horizontal or vertical multi-band spectrum analyzer display. Slide Show: A series of 12 still images are shown at 5-second intervals. GPS: You can display various GPS information, including directional heading, GPS reception, Latitude/Longitude, Compass, or Speed indicator display. The optional GPS antenna (099GPS105) must be connected in order to view these displays. Imported: Using the E-iSERV website, you can download applications for creating motion pictures, wall paper and slide show images. Images are loaded onto a CD-R or Memory Stick and imported to the head unit. Background Display: The background display can be selected from two motion picture displays and 4 wallpaper displays. The motion picture displays include jet aircraft over a cityscape and raindrops on a water surface. You can download other motion picture displays from the E-iSERV website, or create your own with up to 70 digital still images sequenced into a 7-second animated clip. Illumination: The front panel buttons are independently illuminated in two zones: the large buttons and rotary knob (zone 1), and the preset buttons/custom and mute buttons (zone 2). You can choose from the following six illumination patterns (zone 1/zone 2): Blue/Red, Blue/Green, Blue/Amber, All Red, or All Amber. MP3/WMA Playback: The CD7000 can play MP3 and WMA files recorded onto CD-R and CD-RW discs in ISO 9660 Level 1 and 2. Recommended bit rates for MP3 are 64-320 kbps and 48-320 kbps. Variable bit rates from 64 to 320 kbps for MP3 and 48 to 320 kbps can be used, however there will likely be a discrepancy in the time display. The receiver can recognize a total of 999 files and folders, 255 folders, or 8 directory layers on a single disc. The receiver can show the names of albums and artists, and ID3 Tags for MP3. CD Text: If a CD Text disc is inserted, the receiver will display the artist name, disc title and track title information. ATRAC3: This unit can play ATRAC3 music files recorded onto Memory Stick media. Compatible media include MagicGate (MG) Memory Sticks with a capacity of up to 128 MB. Memory Stick Duo must be used with the Memory Stick Duo adapter. Playback functions include Next/Previous track, Fast Forward/Rewind, Intro Scan (first 10 seconds of each track), Track Repeat, and Track Random. Artist names and track titles up to 14 characters can be displayed when recorded on the MG Memory Stick. No Memory Sticks are supplied with the unit. Note: Memory Sticks containing ATRAC3 Plus, MP3 or WMA files are not compatible. ESN Security: This unit is equipped with the Eclipse Security Network with three levels of security: Key CD: You can register a particular music CD as a "key" device which unlocks the security. If the registered CD is not detected, the navigation and audio functions will be disabled when the main unit is disconnected from and reconnected to the vehicle's battery. You can turn the security on or off, or change the "key" CD as desired. Memory Stick: You can record a Memory Stick and a secret code (security code) with the main unit. Once constant power is restored, you can insert the Memory Stick, enter the 4-digit code, and unlock the unit. ACC Security: This method can be used when Memory Stick security has already been set. When security is set, button operations are disabled when the ignition switch is turned to OFF and then back to ACC. Note: In addition to ESN Security, the CD7000 has detachable face plate security. Area Shot: Using the special E-iSERV website from Eclipse, you can download map data for the U.S. and Canada (from NAVTEQ) and driving instructions to your destination and burn the data to a CD-R or Memory Stick for importing into the CD7000. The Area Shot feature allows you to display the maps and driving instructions to your destination on the receiver, including points-of-interest, detailed intersection displays and audible alert tones. Text information includes intersection street names and turn directions. With the optional GPS unit connected (item # 099GPS105), you get automatic map switching, a guidance tone, and real-time readouts of the distance remaining to the next intersection as the car travels. GPS-linked Volume: The volume can be set to automatically adjust based on vehicle speed information obtained from the GPS. The volume increases as the vehicle's speed increases, and decreases as the speed decreases. You can set the sensitivity of the Automatic Volume Control to low, medium, or high. Radio Band Switching: If you wish to take the receiver out of the country, the tuner frequencies and interval can be switched on any of four possible regions: USA: FM: 87.7-107.9 MHz (0.2 MHz step) AM: 530-1710 kHz (10 kHz step) Asia (includes Europe): FM: 87.5-108.0 MHz (0.05 MHz step) AM: 522-1629 kHz (9 kHz step) Australia: FM: 87.5-108.0 MHz (0.1 MHz step) AM: 522-1710 kHz (9 kHz step) Latin America: FM: 87.75-107.9 MHz (0.1 MHz step) AM: 530-1710 kHz (10 kHz step) High-volt Preamp Outputs: The CD7000 features three sets of 5-volt, low-impedance (55Ω) preamp outputs, including a non-fading output for a subwoofer. The outputs are affected by the speaker layout (see below). Note: The CD7000's manual incorrectly states the preamp voltage is 8 volts. Digital-To-Analog Converter: This unit is equipped with an advanced 24-bit Delta Sigma D/A converter. Source Volume Controls (SVC): Because the level of each source can vary greatly, the Source Volume Controls allow you to raise or lower the volume of AM radio, CD, and Memory Stick audio compared to the FM radio signal. The volume differences can be set within a range of -10 to +20. Speaker Layout: Depending upon your vehicle audio system's speaker layout, you can set up the CD7000 for a traditional 4-speaker system with front and rear full-range speakers and a subwoofer, or a 3-way speaker system with low frequency (subwoofers), mid frequency (midbass/midrange speakers), and high frequency speakers (tweeters). The parametric EQ, time alignment, and crossover settings are specific to the speaker layout selection. The preamp outputs are also affected by the Speaker Layout selection; the front, rear, and non-fading outputs become the high, mid, and low band outputs (respectively) when the 4-speaker system is switched to a 3-way speaker system. Sound Adjustment Modes: The CD7000 is equipped with several Sound Adjustment features: SRS Circle Surround II: Surround sound is achieved by combining SRS TruBass, which uses the difference between two different frequencies to boost bass tones, and SRS Circle Surround, which uses 2-channel correlation to expand the sound. SRS Circle Surround II is only available when the speaker layout is set to a 4-speaker system. Parametric EQ: Depending upon the speaker layout, the CD7000 offers 7 bands or 11 bands of equalization: 4-Speaker Layout: When the 4-speaker layout is selected, the parametric equalizer lets you adjust 7 frequency bands by +/-10dB. Up to 5 EQ patterns can be saved in memory for future use. The following frequencies can be selected for each band: Band 1: 63Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz Band 2: 125Hz, 160Hz, 200Hz Band 3: 250Hz, 315Hz, 400Hz, 500Hz Band 4: 630Hz, 800Hz, 1kHz, 1.25kHz Band 5: 1.6kHz, 2kHz, 2.5kHz, 3.15kHz Band 6: 4kHz, 5kHz, 6.3kHz, 8kHz Band 7: 10kHz, 12.5kHz, 16kHz 3-Speaker Layout: When the 3-speaker layout is selected, the PEQ gives you 5 high-frequency bands, 5 mid-frequency bands, and 1 low-frequency band, each with selectable center frequencies: High Bands: 200Hz, 250Hz, 315Hz, 400Hz, 500Hz, 630Hz, 800Hz, 1kHz, 1.25kHz, 1.6kHz, 2kHz, 2.5kHz, 3.15kHz, 4kHz, 5kHz, 6.15kHz, 8kHz, 10kHz, 12.5kHz, and 16kHz Mid Bands: 63Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 125Hz, 160Hz, 200Hz, 250Hz, 315Hz, 400Hz, 500Hz, 630Hz, 800Hz, 1kHz, 1.25kHz, 1.6kHz, 2kHz, 2.5kHz, 3.15kHz, 4kHz, 5kHz, 6.15kHz, 8kHz, 10kHz, 12.5kHz, and 16kHz Low Band: 20Hz, 25Hz, 31.5Hz, 40Hz, 50Hz, 63Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 125Hz, 160Hz, 200Hz, and 250Hz Time Alignment: The delay time and level of the sound from each speaker can be adjusted in order to correct any phase mismatches in the sound resulting from the listening position. When the 4-speaker layout is selected, the delay times of 0 to 10 ms are made for the front left, front right, rear left, rear right, and subwoofer. When the 3-speaker layout is chosen, delay times are entered for the high left, high right, mid left, mid right, low left, and low right speakers. Crossover: High-pass filters (HPF) and low-pass filters (LPF) can be applied to the speaker and preamp outputs. The slopes for the crossovers can be set to 6dB, 12dB, or 18dB per octave or Pass (no crossover). 4-Speaker Layout: You can apply an LPF on the non-fading output and an HPF on the front and rear outputs. You can select a cut-off frequency between 63Hz and 200Hz for the HPF and 20Hz to 200Hz for the LPF. 3-Speaker Layout: You can select a High band HPF/Mid band LPF and a Mid band HPF/Low band LPF. Cutoff frequencies for the M-LPF/Hi can be between 200Hz and 10kHz. The cutoff frequencies for the Mid-HPF/Low are 20Hz to 200Hz. Multi-Harmonizer: The Multi-Harmonizer uses harmonic synthesis to restore the high-frequency component that is lost as a result of the compression process for MP3/WMA/ATRAC3. Better sound can be obtained during MP3, WMA, or ATRAC3 playback when the Multi-Harmonizer is activated. You can select between high and low effectiveness. Non-fader: The phase and output level of the non-fading output can be adjusted. You can also select a stereo or mono signal. Loudness: The loudness control may be turned on to emphasize low and high frequencies at low volume levels. When selected, the loudness contour provides a +10dB boost at 100Hz and a +6dB boost at 10kHz. Note: Loudness is not available when SRS Circle Surround II is activated. E-iSERV Sound Effect Customizations: The parametric EQ, time alignment, and crossover settings can be adjusted using the head unit or through the Eclipse E-iSERV website. Settings can be stored on CD-R or Memory Stick and uploaded to the head unit. Remote Control: The CD7000 can be controlled by the supplied RMC105 remote control. With the remote you can access the following functions: Power, Mode, Volume Up/Dn, Source select (Disc/Tuner/Aux), Band select, Mute, Preset Channel Up/Dn, Disc Up/Dn, Track Up/Dn, and Tune/Seek Up/Dn. Compatible with Factory Steering Wheel Radio Controls: Through the special E-iSERV website from Eclipse, you can download software that enables factory steering wheel remote operation of the CD7000. This software can be burned to a CD-R and imported into the receiver. Two wires (brown/black and brown) in the supplied wiring harness need to be connected to factory wiring in order for steering wheel remote commands can operate. To take advantage of the optional wired remote capability of this unit, you must have a vehicle with steering wheel radio controls. Note: Depending upon the vehicle's make and model, not all downloaded material may be compatible with steering wheel remote functions. Auxiliary Input: The CD7000 has an auxiliary input on a 7" pigtail on the rear with RCA jacks. You can set the input sensitivity of the Aux input to Low (1 Vrms), Mid (480 mVrms), or High (240 mVrms). The optional AUX105 Aux cord (item #099AUX105) can be plugged into the E-LAN connector if a second auxiliary input is needed. If the AUX105 is used, you cannot add a CD changer. iPod Ready: You can enjoy music from your Apple iPod when it's connected to the head unit via the optional Eclipse iPC-106 Interface Adapter for iPod (item # 099IPC106). The adapter is compatible only with iPods with a dock connector. While connected, the head unit will power the iPod, and charge the iPod's battery. You can perform playlist, album, artist, genre, or song searches. Playback functions include track up/dn, fast forward/rewind, track repeat, track random play, and album random play. Display selections include song, album, or artist. The iPC-106's E-LAN pass-through allows you to add a CD changer to your system. HD Radio Ready: The CD7000 is compatible with the optional HDR105 HD Radio Tuner (item #099HDR105). When the HDR105 is connected, you can enjoy the digital sound quality of your favorite radio stations that are now broadcasting in HD. Digital broadcasts from FM stations sound as good as CDs, and AM stations sound as good as today's analog FM stations. The tuner has an E-LAN pass-through connection, allowing you to daisy chain an Eclipse CD changer.SIRIUS Satellite Ready: The SIRIUS Connect SIR-ECL1 (item # 099SIRECL1) plugs directly into the CD7000's E-LAN bus connection to give you access to over 120 channels of digital-quality radio programming, including 65 commercial-free music channels and over 55 channels of sports, news, and original programming. When you are listening to SIRIUS programming, you can choose to display (one line) the channel name, category name, song/program title, artist, or SIRIUS unit ID number. Long names/titles will scroll across the display. The SIR-ECL1 has an E-LAN pass-through connection that allows you to connect other compatible Eclipse components such as a CD changer. Note: A subscription to SIRIUS is required in order to receive programming. CD Changer Control E-LAN Bus: The CD7000 can control up to two Eclipse CH3083 8-disc CD changers (item # 099CH3083) through its E-LAN Bus connector. Changer Controls: When an optional CD changer is connected, the CD7000 has the following controls: Track Skip, Disc Skip, Fast Forward/Fast Reverse, Track Intro Scan, Disc Intro Scan, Track Repeat, Disc Repeat, Disc Random, All Disc Random, and Direct Disc Select (Discs 1-12).

Toffee apple jam is made with layers of homemade toffee sauce and lemony apple compote
Method1. For the toffee sauce: melt the sugar, syrup and butter in a small pan and bring slowly to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 3 minutes or so until thick. Stir in the cream and remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
2. For the jam: place the apples, water and lemon juice in a separate pan and cook down until soft and fluffy – this will take about 15-20 minutes. Once the apples have become soft, add the sugar over a low heat until all the sugar has dissolved, then crank up the heat and bring to a simmering boil for approximately 4-5 minutes. The apple jam should be lovely and thick.
3. Add a layer of toffee sauce to the bottom of the jar and then a layer of apple jam and continue layering until you reach the top of the jar.

Garden Spiders
Argiope aurantia
During late summer, staff and visitors at Prairie Ridge Ecostation have been treated to colorful discoveries of the arachnid variety. One of our most ostentatious spiders is the Black and Yellow Garden Spider Argiope aurantia. Many folks that live in the Carolinas are familiar with the large black and yellow females which can grow up to 3-inches in diameter. The male is much smaller and is often found in a smaller web adjacent to the female's web.
[Click on a photo to see larger version]
These diurnal spiders are often identified from a distance by their large circular, or orb webs. A special characteristic of this web is a dense zigzag pattern of white silk in the center of the web. This pattern of silk is known as the stabilimenta. The function of the stabilimenta is not fully understood but possibilities include camouflage for the resting spider, a lure for attracting insects, or a warning to birds and other large animals to prevent them from accidentally destroying the web. The stabilimenta's resemblance to writing is credited with the spider's common name "writing spider."
Be sure to look for the large webs of these colorful spiders in your backyard, or during your next visit to Prairie Ridge.

The older brother has no point of view. The book is told in three first person accounts during a 24 hour period. The brothers remain nameless, they can be anyone we run across in our daily life. It is the interaction of the two brother's, the reader will learn the elder's true nature and all the unanswered questions come to light in the explosive climax. try, hypocrisy, intolerance are not qualities but human failings. FILL MY EYES set a half century ago, addresses these issues that are so prevalent in today's society.

Fill My Eyes
And if I seem downhearted
Well it's--just my way
But keep this heart in mind
As I--just walk away
Terry D. Robertson
Prologue as an Epilogue
WHAT PART OF THE WORD NO dont you understand? The nuh or the oh? The young man said pointedly, but devoid of emotion.
Hes mine! She screamed hysterically, wavering from side to side. Then she held onto the mantel in mock composure.
You have established that a hundred times this evening. Must we go over it again? His face was still, a mask-like statue. When you come here like this, you get filled with misguided sentimentality, trying to right a wrong over someone you committed too many years ago to correctand it just isnt going to work! Not nowits too late. Just look at what youve become? You are not even pitiful anymoreyoure pathetic! He snarled at her. And you dont give a damn about anybody. You do what suits you and only yourselfperiod.
He paced angrily around the room then stopped in front of her. You come and go with precious little warning. These sloppy visits have taken me to the point where I just cant think straightand I am sick of it! He ran his fingers through his hair, in what appeared a motion to enable to help him think clearly. Then he turned to her. You know I cant even trust myself. He continued. II have to back away from him. I dont dare get too close when its like this because of what I might say or do. He rubbed his forearm. And whether you want to hear it notyoure responsible! So why dont you just leave the damn check on the coffee tableas you always doand just leave!
She hastily scribbled and wadded the check and then threw it at him. He did not flinch. He picked it up off the floor and sat.
He remained seated as the front door slammed behind her. Bitchyoure always under foot and Im always under your thumb. He muttered. And it ends tomorrow night.
After stubbing out his cigarette, he released a tensed hiss of air through his nostrils. He then looked to the stairway.
He rose suddenly and ran up them.
The little boy was huddled in a dark corner near the entrance, crying softly.
He grasped his hands tightly around the boys small shoulders, encircling them, and shook him. What have I told you! The boy flinched. Do you listen? Do you ever listen?
t, images, video, widgets, etc...
Friend, What you have written really wets the appetite for more! This
is going to be a great book. Mystery, excitement, children all set in a
very short period. A lesson should be learned by all after reading what
this book has to offer all of us, to lead a better life and learn what
happens if you don t. You will definitely get a lot out of reading this
book and I can t wait to see the conclusion. Thanks for sharing the
insight to what we might expect.
Good luck and I know that you will be successful in not only this book, but also the other ones to come.
Take care friend, Linda T.

Re: Yamaha dfp9500c
What you can do is throw your DW beaters on there and crank the springs a bit. The IC beater is also comparable in weight.
One thing I like about the Yamaha beater is I can keep the spring tension medium still get the quick response that I like because the beaters are so light.
I used to own 8000 and 9000 doubles, I still preferred my Yamahas. Although my gripe with the DW pedals is mostly about the design of that massive heel plate.
With pedals it's all about familiarity, for me at least. The Flying Dragon was the first high end pedal I bought, years ago. Since then, I have owned DW 9000, 8000, ICs, Speed Cobra, Mapex Falcon. Ended up going back to the Flying Dragon every time. The IC is the only other pedal I kept and still play regularly.

Crowds line up to pay for a peek at the Cardiff Giant in 1869.

A giant undertaking
Can the Cardiff Giant still draw a crowd? Ty Marshal thinks so
Inspiration for Ty Marshal's latest project actually came while he was researching a different concept. Marshal, a local artist and activist who prefers the label "inter-disciplinarian," had set out to find whether Onondaga Lake had ever been rumored to harbor a lake monster. Instead, he discovered a nearly 150-year-old hoax that entangled P.T. Barnum, the courts and thousands of residents, and began a few miles from Syracuse.

Elyece Miller will go the extra mile to find you the right home for your family. She really knows her business of Real Estate and the St. Charles and Geneva markets. Out family was going through a long transition and she stuck with our process for literally years in finding the right home. I cannot say enough about her enthusiasm and attention to detail. She is the best. I will miss going to see homes with Elyece until the next time she helps me sell out home and find a new one.
Elyece Miller
8 Recent Sales (last 12 months)
Managing Broker/Owner
- Specialties:
- Buyer's Agent,
- Listing Agent,
- Relocation,
- Consulting
Ratings & Reviews
Elyece Miller, long a resident of the St. Charles-Geneva, IL community, uses her depth of knowledge of the area and her professional approach to be a highly effective agent/broker in real estate. Elyece is personable, upbeat and always a source of helpful information to anyone who seeks to buy or sell real property. My experience in 2013 was on the sell side, probably the side of RE transactions where participants have needed professionals the most in recent years. I found Elyece Miller to be a font of helpful hints, a reference with all the answers, a professional quick to respond to the dynamics of any situation, and supportively positive-thinking at all times. After the above, I should not need to say I would employ Elyece Miller again. I surely would.
We had a great experience working with Elyece for the sale of our home. We felt she had our best interest in mind every step of the way. In the end, I believe we got the best price due to her knowledge, guidance and direction. Thanks Elyece!!
When we were moving to the area we reached out to many agents, Elyece was the only one the called us back. She was with us every step of the way! She is incredibly dedicated to knowing what her client is looking for, listening to their needs and finding exactly what fits their needs. Every time we would come from out of state to look for homes she would accommodate us, and today continues to be a great resource, as things still seem to be new for us. She is amazing and I would never use another agent for our real estate needs. I would highly recommend Elyece to anyone, she is truly the best in the business!
Elyece sold my house in less than 3 months. Everything about the process was pleasant. I would recommend her to all of my family and friends! Thanks again Elyece:)
Elyece is an extremely professional real estate agent. She is very well acquainted with the local area. She acted as real estate agent for the sale of our house and also aided us in finding a new place. She really puts in the extra effort which, in this market, is critical.
My husband and I both feel like Elyece could (and should) write a book on the consummate art of realty. Elyece Miller is both the perfectly prepared professional as well as highly attuned to the market and her many contacts that make the often daunting experience of buying or selling real estate an arduous endeavor. Elyece is not only the finest realtor you can find in the Fox Valley, she's also one of the nicest ladies you'll ever meet. But be assured, "the Velvet Hammer" as she's affectionately known, can bring through the best deal imaginable for you and your family. Choose Elyece Miller. You will not be sorry you did, we guarantee!!
Elyece has helped us sell 2 houses, buy 2 houses and find renters for our rental properties in the last couple of years. We have enjoyed working with this high energy, honest, professional and knowledgeable local Real Estate Broker. We look forward to using her again for all of our real estate needs whether selling, buying or renting.

A guy-wire or guy-rope, also known as simply a guy, is a tensioned cable designed to add stability to structures (frequently ship masts, radio masts, wind turbines, utility poles, and tents). One end of the cable is attached to the structure, and the other is anchored to the ground at a distance from the structure's base. They are often configured radially (equally spaced about the structure) in trios, quads (pairs of pairs) or other sets. This allows the tension of each guy-wire to offset the others. For example, roof antennas are sometimes held up by three guy-wires.
Immigration laws were put into place years ago to allow "Legal" entry into this country. When the USA is over run by illegals expecting the government to care for their every need therefore bankrupting the nation who will cry out and protest then? The same freeloaders that are protesting now. These protesters are wanting to make illegal legal without proper entry. If this is allowed to happen we will no longer have reason to obey any laws. Illegal is illegal. Why do people not understand that?
10 years UP THE RIVER without benefit of the boat should be about right.

good points, cracken. I also don't think we can change their minds about anything. So why fight them? If we don't continue to fight them and push them, they win and if we give in, we won't just lose Iraq, we will lose our freedom. I'm still deciding though, maybe i'll end up in the air force like my friend. only thing about that, it's more difficult to get the job you want.
ok recap of what i did yesterday..
Got up, washed dishes and went to get drinks picked up milk, orange juice, nesquick, and water...trying to give up soda. Got home and made a turkey sandwhich, then had my landlord come up to take a look at the radiators, as they were leaking...sink is also leaking....he accidentally tightened the nut on the radiator in the kitchen too much and gonna need to replace the nut on that...as for the radiator in the bathroom, we thought we fixed that one, but guess it created a leak somewhere else as his wife's side of the bed got soaked with water. So we're like wtf.....and can't find anyplace it could be leaking from. The sink is gonna need a different kind of washer as that is still leaking. I can't shower today as it might spring a leak...took one last night and afterwards is when i got the phone call about a leak. so that sucks...
I played a bit of galaxies as well last night, i'm trying to start a guild with my alt that will be at guild war with my main's guild....sick of mass pvp (way too much lag) in restuss and want to get battle events set up for guild war....
Battle is a pure form of expression. It is heart and discipline, reduced to movement and motion. In battle, the words are swept away, giving way to actions-- mercy, sacrifice, anger, fear. These are pure moments of expression.

"Bullying" Has Little Resonance with Teenagers
Ever had one of dem days you wish woulda stayed home / Run into a
group of niggas who getting they hate on / You walk by they get wrong you reply
then shit get blown / Way outta proportion way past discussion / Just you
against them, pick one then rush em / Figure you get jumped here thats next /
They don't wanna stop there now they bustin / Now you gushin, ambulance rushin
you to the hospital / with a bad concussion / Plus ya hit 4 times bullet hit ya
spine paralyzed waist down / now ya wheel chair bound / Never mind that now you
lucky to be alive. - T.I. "Dead and Gone"
Sometimes, I feel like I'm living in parallel universes. I attend conferences and hear from parents and journalists who are talking about the bullying pandemic. And then I talk with teenagers about their social dramas, producing the interactions that adults identify as bullying. I hear from well-meaning adults about how they want to create interventions to help teenagers with bullying. And then I hear teens complain about the assemblies and messaging that they're forced to listen to that don't even begin to resonate with them. Whenever I talk to folks about bullying, I'm forced to confront the fact that adults and teens are talking past one another. And then I hear songs like T.I.'s "Dead and Gone" that capture the escalation at the most extreme sense and hope that teens are taking home the core message of the song, which T.I. captures simply as "I won that fight, I lost that war." The cultural logic underpinning bullying is far more complex than most adults realize. And technology is not radically changing what's happening; it's simply making what's happening far more visible. If we want to combat bullying, we need to start by understanding the underlying dynamics. And we need to approach interventions with an evaluation-based mindset. We won't know how to stop bullying and no amount of legislation requiring education is going to do squat until we actually find intervention mechanisms that work. And that starts with understanding what's happening.
The Way Teens See It
When I first started interviewing teenagers about bullying, they would dismiss my questions. "Bullying is so middle/elementary school," they'd say. "There's no bullying problem at my school," they'd say. And then, as our interview would continue, I'd hear about all sorts of interactions that sounded like bullying. I quickly realized that we were speaking different languages. They'd be talking about "starting drama" or "getting into fights" or "getting into my business" or "being mean." They didn't see rumors or gossip as bullying, regardless of whether or not it happened online. And girls didn't see fighting over boys or ostracizing one another because of boys as bullying. They didn't even see producing fight videos as bullying.
So then I started asking them what bullying was. What I learned was that bullying was when someone picked on someone or physically hurt someone who didn't deserve it. I'd ask how they knew if someone deserved it and the response was incredulous, "oh, you know." So I pushed harder... "what if you don't know?" I asked. I got blank stares so I took a different tactic. "What if someone's messing with someone and that other person thinks they're being mean?" This got their attention, but not in the way that I expected. Most told me that you know when someone is messing with you and that if you don't, you're stupid. Besides, when someone's messing with you, you can't take it seriously.
Of course, teens do take it seriously. And they do misinterpret when people are messing with them. And they do take minor social infractions personally. And then things escalate. And here's what makes bullying so difficult to address. So often, one person thinks that they're not at fault and that they're simply a victim of bullying. But those who are engaged in the bullying see it entirely differently. They blame the person and see what they're doing as retaliation. None of this is communicated, of course, so things can quickly spiral out of control without anyone really knowing where it all began.
A Story: Janiya and Precious
I was talking with Janiya about who she was friends with on Facebook and she told me "everyone." I asked her if there was anyone from school that she was not friends with on Facebook and she rolled her eyes and said, "Yeah, Precious." When I asked her why, she said "I just don't like her." Slowly, the story unfolded that she and Precious were currently entangled in a "situation" that had recently blown up pretty badly such that parents were involved. After hearing about the current squabbles, I asked Janiya to think back to a time when she and Precious were friends. I asked her what went wrong. Eventually, she told me about a birthday party in the 4th grade where Janiya played a joke on Precious and Precious took it really badly. It became clear that, ever since then, they were up and down. They didn't trust one another and it sounded like they regularly misinterpreted what the other had said or done. Everything became personal and, when things got bad, it escalated into a physical fight. From Janiya's point of view, she'd done nothing wrong; it was all Precious' fault. But, reading between the lines, it was clear that Precious had a very different POV. I asked Janiya if this was bullying and she told me that Precious and her mom were bullies. I doubt that Precious would see it that way.
So how do we intervene with Janiya and Precious? A lecture on bullying is going to be completely ignored by both of them, either as irrelevant or meaningless to them personally. They don't see what they're doing as bullying. What Janiya and Precious need is to understand the situation from each other's perspective
and to have empathy for how the other experiences what's unfolding. That's not an easy thing to do. Heck, that's extremely hard. Just ask any marital
therapist who's trying to help a couple work through their relationship. Janiya has a different solution in mind: make Precious change schools. She's not interested in solving the relationship drama; she just wants Precious out of her life. And the only way that she can imagine this happening is by making it hard for Precious to stick around. So she's taken a pretty strict stance: she never looks Precious in the eye or speaks to her so as to pretend that she's invisible. And she encourages her friends to do the same. Online and off.
Empathy, Not Technology, Is Core of the Problem and the Solution
Janiya and Precious are trapped in a full-blown battle, but these dynamics are not unique. Girls ostracize one another either because of personal collisions or in support of their friends' dramas. They make each other miserable by spreading rumors or gossiping behind their back. Technology is employed in efforts to humiliate, deprecate, or isolate. The end result for girls tends to be verbal and emotional torment. Boys, on the other hand, tend to front in order to move towards a physical altercation. Or to intimidate or humiliate. But in all cases, the point is to show who has social power. It's all about creating and reinforcing hierarchies. In schools where status-driven hierarchies aren't acutely maintained by teens, bullying isn't so dominant. But when there's something to be gained by putting someone down, bullying rears its ugly head.
When I look at how teens hurt each other, I can't help but also see how they're developing training wheels for future relationships and reflecting normative behaviors that they see around them. I hear teens' dramas reflected in their stories about how their parents fight - with each other, with their friends and family and colleagues, and with them. What teens are doing is more coarse, more direct, and more explicit. But they're witnessing adult dramas all around them and what they tend to see isn't pretty. Parents talking smack about work colleagues or bosses. Parents fighting with each other or ostracizing their family members over disagreements. And it's not just parents...Teens are seeing fights and dramas all over the media. Celebrity fights and dramas aren't just in their face; they're glorified! And even if MTV comments on domestic abuse after airing Jersey Shore, the way that the housemates treat each other sets a standard for what's societally acceptable. Teens are seeing drama everywhere - they're seeing it as a legitimate part of adult society that can often lead to notoriety.
Let's Understand, Then Act
And here's where we run into another major component of bullying... attention. In a world of brands and marketing, there's a sentiment that there is no such thing as bad attention. Countless teens are desperately seeking attention. And there's nothing like "starting drama" to guarantee both attention and entertainment. So teens jump in, adding fuel to the flame because it's fun. They know that it hurts, but it also feels good sometimes too. And this is what makes music videos like Eminem & Rihanna's "Love the Way You Lie" resonate with both adults and teens. The drama is half the fun, even when it hurts like hell.
Combating bullying is not going to be easy, but it's definitely not going to happen if we don't dive deep in the mess that underpins it and surrounds it. Lectures by uncool old people like me aren't going to make teens who are engaged in dramas think twice about what they're doing. And, for that matter, using the term "bullying" is also not going to help at all either. We need interventions that focus on building empathy, identifying escalation, and techniques for stopping the cycles of abuse. We need to create environments where young people don't get validated for negative attention and where they don't see relationship drama as part of normal adult life. The issues here are systemic. And it's great that the Internet is forcing us to think about them, but the Internet is not the problem here. It's just one tool in an ongoing battle for attention, validation, and status. And unless we find effective ways of getting to the root of the problem, the Internet will just continue to be used to reinforce what is pervasive.

Rihanna Goes HAM After Fan Compares Her To Whitney Houston
It seems as though fans are getting their wigs snatched left and right on Twitter and Instagram by fed up celebs. This past weekend, an Instagram user was in for a rude awakening after she commented under Rihanna's photo, "She's going to end [up] like Whitney if she keeps doing drugs like she's doing now." Rihanna responded, "Yea cuz Whitney overdosed on a joint. F-ck outta here you weak b-tch!!" That fan definitely killed her vibe. [Erica Vain]

- person in the U.S. has this name View Diana Hoven on Whitepages
Meaning & Origins
Name borne in Roman mythology by the goddess of the moon and of hunting, equivalent to the Greek Artemis. In mythology she is characterized as both beautiful and chaste. Her name is of ancient and uncertain derivation. It probably contains a first element that is also found in the name of the Greek god Dionysos (see Dennis) and the Latin name of the supreme god Jupiter. It was adopted in Britain during the Tudor period as a learned name, a borrowing from Latin influenced by the French form Diane. Although it was much used by Elizabethan poets celebrating the virgin goddess and alluding to the Virgin Queen, it was not particularly popular as a given name until the end of the 19th century. In earlier centuries some clergymen were reluctant to baptize girls with this pagan name, mindful of the riots against St Paul stirred up by worshippers of Diana of the Ephesians (Acts 19:24–41). In the late 20th century, its popularity received a boost because of its association with the late Diana, Princess of Wales (1961–97), who was renowned for her beauty, glamour, and compassion.

It is now recognized that a number of cognitive, behavioral, and mental health outcomes across the lifespan can be traced to fetal development. Although the direct mediation is unknown, the substantial variance in fetal growth, most commonly indexed by birth weight, may affect lifespan brain development. We investigated effects of normal variance in birth weight on MRI-derived measures of brain development in 628 healthy children, adolescents, and young adults in the large-scale multicenter Pediatric Imaging, Neurocognition, and Genetics study. This heterogeneous sample was recruited through geographically dispersed sites in the United States. The influence of birth weight on cortical thickness, surface area, and striatal and total brain volumes was investigated, controlling for variance in age, sex, household income, and genetic ancestry factors. Birth weight was found to exert robust positive effects on regional cortical surface area in multiple regions as well as total brain and caudate volumes. These effects were continuous across birth weight ranges and ages and were not confined to subsets of the sample. The findings show that (i) aspects of later child and adolescent brain development are influenced at birth and (ii) relatively small differences in birth weight across groups and conditions typically compared in neuropsychiatric research (e.g., Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, schizophrenia, and personality disorders) may influence group differences observed in brain parameters of interest at a later stage in life. These findings should serve to increase our attention to early influences.

Southern Research has managed the on-site chemistry and particulate laboratories at the National Carbon Capture Center (formerly the Power Systems Development Facility) since the facility began operation in 1995. Laboratory activities include the handling and analysis of all samples generated in the gasifier, hot-gas filter, and associated processes.
Analyses routinely performed in the chemistry laboratory include:
In the facility's on-site particulate laboratory, microscopic examinations are routinely performed on the gasification ash, sampling filters, and gasifier deposits. In addition, various specialized tests are routinely performed to assess the effects of various operating conditions and additives on ash deposition in the gasifier.
Measurements of dustcake drag are also performed using a unique system developed by Southern Research. In this system, samples of gasification ash and dustcake from the hot-gas filter are resuspended in gas and collected on a sintered-metal filter while the pressure drop and flow through the cake are monitored. By also measuring the weight and thickness of the cake, it is possible to determine the normalized drag and porosity of the cake. The system is also equipped with various small cyclones to create successively smaller particle-size fractions and allow measurements of drag as a function of particle size.
Southern Research also assists Southern Company and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) in on-site testing of CO2 capture processes, including the evaluation of pre-combustion CO2 capture using:

If you like Portnoy or Peart for what they do, that's grand. I don't think either of them come close to being any kind of apex for complexity, technicality etc. even in a rock music context, although they're both very solid drummers who do their thing very effectively. So really it's a matter of taste. Neither of them are exactly up my alley, although if I had to choose I'd probably go with Peart as he's at least a little closer to what I enjoy in drumming.
You are correct. There are drummers out there that are better than both of them in every aspect. But what does that mean? If you dont like them ( not you in particular )
thats totaly fine. We are all entitled to our oppinion. Personally, I am not a big fan of Tre Cool or Barker like alot of people are, but I would not go to their thread and say so. What would that do? Like it or not Peart has influenced many, many drummers including Portnoy. I dont see the point in discrediting him for what he has done with drums that makes us know who he is in the first place just because there are better drummers. If thats the case, from what I read, every drummers favorite drummers should be ( for the most part ) Gadd, Coliauta, Lang, Chambers, Weckel and Donati. And a hand full of others.

She is tied for second with 12 birdies. Her 4.15 average is tops on par 4s. - Emily McLennan (Queensland,
Australia) leads the squad with 15 birdies (2.5 per round). Her five in the
final round of the Mason Rudolph Women's Championship tied Porsche Campbell's

(3.17) and par 5 scoring (5.00). - Britt, Campbell and Marion
Duvernay (Publier, France) are tied for second behind McLennan with 12 birdies. - Duvernay has proven strong in
season openers. Last year, she notched the best finish of her young career with
a tie for fifth at the Golfweek Conference Challenge. She bested that this year
tying for fourth at the Wild Eggs Cardinal Cup. - Duvernay's 219 (+3) is a new
low 54-hole total. She did it with eight birdies, 35 pars and 11 bogeys. It was
her first full tournament without a score higher than bogey. - Campbell opened her UTC career

overall and No. 10 among NCAA Division I programs according to the National
Golf Coaches Association. The Mocs had a combined grade point average of 3.621
for the academic year. That total was just a tick off of 2010-11's 3.649 that
ranked 20th overall and 13th in Division I. Maju Loza and Kryger paced the
academic effort with perfect 4.0 GPA's for the year. Loza majors in Mechanical
Engineering, while Kryger studies are in Communications. - Duvernay just missed the top 10
at the European Amateur shooting a level-par total of 284. She shot rounds of
67, 70, 73 and 74 at Diners Golf and Country Club in Ljubljana, Slovenia. It
was her top summer finish against a strong field. - Kryger had a very active summer
schedule. Her best finish came in her home country of Denmark. She ended up
third at the Danish International Ladies Championship in Silkeborg Golf Club.
Kryger was a semifinalist at the Danish Ladies Match Play. - McLennan won three times with
14 other top 10s since 2010 playing in junior, women's amateur and pro events.
She was the 2010 and 2011 Tasmanian Girls Masters Champ as well as the 2010 New
Caledonia Open (pro event) winner. She went to the same golf academy in
Australia as PGA Tour golfer Jason Day. - Loza is a freshman following in
the footsteps of her sister Maria Juliana who just completed her four-year
career in May. - She owns wins on two continents. She won the 2011 Colombia National
Championship and AJGA Preseason Junior at the Bridges. She also qualified for
the 2011 U.S. Women's Amateur. - Campbell is a three-time junior
winner in Canada. She competed in four events for the University of British
Columbia (NAIA) in 2009-10. - The six Mocs come from six

I was taking photographs of bees around a tree in my garden, in Kent, this afternoon. These were small, dark, probably solitary bees and they were quite active. I then noticed a red bee, or that was what I think it was, probably a mining bee, which landed on the branch. I managed a couple of shots of this red insect and then decided it was a bit distant for my macro lens, so I moved in to about twelve inches and was just focusing when one of the other bees attacked it, landing on its back, whereupon they both fell down towards the ground and out of my sight.
When I examined the photos on the computer I could see the red insect and the aggressor bee in both the shots.

Pen Shells and Beach BlingPosted by: | Comments
It has been an unusual week on Sanibel. The winds are changing directions and speed by the second which makes for an interesting site to see of all the different things that wash up on our beaches. I showed you lots of different EGG CASINGS in my last post but I found another one today… a SHARK'S EYE EGG COLLAR…
…oodles of PEN SHELLS…
but we also are seeing PURPLE SEA URCHINS…
And weird fish like this SHORTNOSE BATFISH
EEEEK! And an EEL! Yall know I love me some BEACH BLING… but EELS? They kinda creep me out for some reason.
Blllaaaahhh, Okay, now that I'm completely creeped out… I have to change the subject because I have some happy, happy stuff happening here too that I dont want to ruin! Okay.. here is a happy picture to get back in the mood of what Sanibel is NORMALLY like… having fun doing the Sanibel Stoop!
I met some awesome folks on the beach this week at the Sanibel Lighthouse Beach! This is Shelling Sister Donna R from NY…
She was on her way to finding the Sanibel Six. Yes, that ALPHABET CONE is pretty beat up but It's still a CONE and it's whole and HUGE!
I also met sweetie pie Katherine Haskins with her husband Tom.
Katherine love the minis so she was finding lots of different miniatures like WENTLETRAPS along with AUGERS, CERITHS and a little perfect WORMIE.
It was fun to see them on the beach together with their iLS shirts on! (teehee) Warms my heart.
I also met another awesome couple while walking on the beach today several miles west of Lighthouse Beach. Here are shellers Linda and Glen from Ohio…
Linda found an ANGEL WING! They also were happy to find their first KEYHOLE LIMPET along with these other goodies. Notice they even collect the broken SHARK'S EYES if the "eye" is still intact. Yep, they really are beautiful. I told them that when the SHARK'S EYE is brilliant blue in the middle that I've heard it called "Paul Newman's eye". This one is definitely a PAUL NEWMAN'S EYE!
Oh wait… I feel so badly that I never introduced you to Shelly (love that name!) and Kayle whom I met last week at Blind Pass when the weather was a little cooler…
I found a PYGMY OCTOPUS inside a PEN SHELL and Kayle offered to take it out in the water to put it back. So sweet!
Here are Shelly and Kayle's gorgeous treasures from the sea that they were collecting. Keep the image of this gorgeous PAPER FIG (in the middle of this green bucket) in your mind to leave you with a happy day. See? I told you I had happy happy stuff to show you.
Sea Horse HappinessPosted by: | Comments
I found a SEA HORSE! It was laying in the sand near some washed up sea grasses at Gulfside City Park. Yep, just laying in the sand and I screamed when I saw it. haha
I wanted to show my friend Diane where those little tiny SAND DOLLARS (sand "dimes") were that I found the other day on my post Uber Cute Sand Dollars To Dimes . Unfortunately, we didn't find the SAND DOLLARS but I did get to see Diane's friends Cathie and Mary from St Louis, Wendy from The Keys and cutie Callie on the leash.
Since we didn't find the minis, we started looking through all of the BEACH BLING. Wendy found a CRUCIFIX SHELL! She's an experienced sheller so she knew immediately what it was when she saw it.
We were also finding MERMAID'S PURSES (SKATE EGG CASES). Sckeppy told me the other day "I've heard of skate egg cases being called "sailor's purses", with the observation that they are usually empty!".
We found so many other EGG CASES as well! From left to right… a PEAR WHELK, LIGHTNING WHELK, PAPER FIG, BANDED TULIP and TRUE TULIP. We coudn't find a TRUE TULIP to put under the egg case but we found half a BANDED TULIP to put underneath the EGG CASE (that grew around some sort of stick).
So when you see all sorts of BEACH BLING lining the beach, always look for special treasures like this SEA HORSE !
There's always something to new to see and always new awesome friends to meet…
CyberShelling At Lighthouse BeachPosted by: | Comments
Someone asked me the other day "How can you tell if the eggs are dead or alive in a (MOLLUSK) EGG CASING?". I had posted a photo of little tiny shells in the capsule of a LIGHTNING WHELK EGG CASE on my post Beach Bling Babes when the question came up. The whole EGG CHAIN I had shown was completely dried and pretty crumbly so it was safe to say that there were no living baby MOLLUSKS in there. So when I picked up a few TRUE TULIP EGG CASES this morning at the Sanibel Lighthouse Beach and saw that they may still be alive, I wanted to show you the difference. Since I'm no scientist, I can't tell you these little TRUE TULIP EGGS were definitely alive, but they sure looked like they could still be viable to me since they were still encased in their fluid capsules.
I also looked at the little hole in the top of the capsule and saw that it was still plugged. After about a month, when the babies are ready to come out, the pore opens up (that I'm showing in the photo above) and the young will creep out. So my theory is, if I don't know something is dead, I have to assume it's still alive. So I put the EGG CLUSTERS back in the water to maybe have a chance of surviving. You can see it much more clearly in this video….
