Open source identity: FreeNAS 8's Josh Paetzel
FreeNAS is an open source operating system based on FreeBSD and, as its name implies, designed for networked storage. The project recently celebrated the release of FreeNAS 8, which racked up some 43,000 downloads in the first 48 hours after its release.
Could you describe FreeNAS in a nutshell? How did the project get started?
FreeNAS 8 ties an easy to use and intuitive GUI to a powerful, stable, robust operating system to make a storage appliance. The project was started a number of years ago when a BSD UNIX enthusiast was looking around for a home file server based on BSD UNIX. When he couldn't find one he created one of his own.

Pondering FOSS foundations
In the case of the Document Foundation, the LibreOffice project needed an independent, solid and meritocratic entity dedicated to support it. In other terms, the OpenOffice.org community wanted to be its own boss and stop relying on corporate – or even third party – good will. If you attend the Community Track on the 31st you will be able to learn more about the Document Foundation and the other entities, but my message here is that while there is no silver bullet in these matters, forcing a community be hosted or to bend to a software vendor never works. It bends if it wants to; it goes whereever it wishes to go. In the case of the Document Foundation, independence and community rule prevailed over convenience; today the results do not need to be proven anymore. But it does not mean we hold the truth more than anybody else: we just ensured the community was in charge.

Hello all, I need to get re-acquainted with archery again. Used to be heavily into archery in the 1990's doing all the field and indoor shoots in my area until life changes in circumstances brought other needs. Dusted off my equipment a few days ago and it felt good. Very luckily, I still have all the equipment one gathers over time so won't have to buy things, not yet anyway.
I have three Martin compound bows, two Pro X series and a Lynx. The Pro X are fitted with Check-it target sights, peep, and stabilizers. I tried searching for any info on the Pro X's but no luck, does anyone have a date when they were introduced? I think I bought them in the early-mid 1990's.

The RFS requires 13.2 billion gallons of ethanol to be made from corn in 2012 and 13.9 billion gallons in 2013. The amounts will use about 4.7 billion and 4.9 billion bushels, respectively, of the nation's corn crop. The USDA estimates that just 10.7 billion bushels of corn will be harvested this year.
EPA is responsible for developing and implementing regulations to ensure that transportation fuel sold in the United States contains a minimum volume of renewable fuel. The RFS program regulations were developed in collaboration with refiners, renewable fuel producers, and many other stakeholders.
The RFS program was created under the Energy Policy Act (EPAct) of 2005, and established the first renewable fuel volume mandate in the United States. As required under EPAct, the original RFS program (RFS1) required 7.5 billion gallons of renewable- fuel to be blended into gasoline by 2012.
According to EPA, under the Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) of 2007, the RFS program was expanded in several key ways:
- EISA expanded the RFS program to include diesel, in addition to gasoline;
- EISA increased the volume of renewable fuel required to be blended into transportation fuel from 9 billion gallons in 2008 to 36 billion gallons by 2022;
- EISA established new categories of renewable fuel, and set separate volume requirements for each one.
- EISA required EPA to apply lifecycle greenhouse gas performance threshold standards to ensure that each category of renewable fuel emits fewer greenhouse gases than the petroleum fuel it replaces.

James Haycraft of Charlotte completed the sprint triathlon course in 51 minutes and 18 seconds, while Jennifer Leiser of Charlotte crossed the finish line in 54 minutes and 45 seconds.
In a sprint-distance triathlon, athletes swim 300 yards, bike 10 miles and then run a 5K, which is 3.1 miles. The kids' events had shorter distances.
"I loved it," Jason Shapiro, 25, of Charlotte, said of his first-ever triathlon. "It was very well put together."
Including the team and youth divisions, the race attracted close to 150 competitors. Proceeds go to support YMCA families in need.
Many athletes echoed Shapiro's praise for race organization, saying the event was well-run, well-marked and all-around fun.
"This is definitely a favorite," said Emily Thompson of Albemarle, who completes three or four triathlons a year with training partner Dana Burleson.
Volunteers were "very knowledgeable," said Patricia Hinkson of Huntersville, whose 9-year-old twins and 11-year-old son completed the race. "The course was well-marked, and the children had no trouble."
Friends and family cheered as runners sprinted across the finish line after swimming in the J.F. Hurley YMCA pool and biking around Salisbury.
Kevin Brown of Cliffside has traveled to Salisbury for every Buck Hurley event and plans to return again next year.
"I enjoy coming down here," he said. "I like the way it's family-oriented."
This year, Brown introduced friend Richard Ray of Rutherfordton to triathlons. Ray said he liked the challenge and plans to do more.
Despite the wind and temperatures that dipped into the 50s, Brown didn't complain about the weather. He said he ran his fastest race yet.
The race co-directors are Ester Marsh and Sarah Busby.

WICHITA — Three dental practices are taking "just a great opportunity" and locating in one new building at 37th and Maize Road, says endodontist Terry Turner.
"This was an opportunity to be with other specialists under one roof, which is unique for Wichita for dental specialists," he says.
The 15,000-square-foot building at 37th and Maize Road will open in July and be roughly divided into thirds for Turner, orthodontists Justin Trimmell and Paul Anders and pediatric dentist Matthew Healy.
Turner is expanding his Professional Endodontics from 1,729 square feet at the Reflection Ridge Office Park at 21st and Ridge to about 4,000 square feet in the new building.
Trimmell & Anders Orthodontics is moving its west Wichita office from Maple and Maize.
This is Healy's first solo practice.
"I've always had a dream of being on my own," he says. "I have a vision of how I want to run a practice."
His Tiny Teeth Pediatric Dentistry will be decorated with children's themes and "really cool stuff."
"It's going to be really kid friendly," Healy says. "We're trying to build an environment that kids love and parents trust."

I've worn this bag nearly every day for the last five years - on trains, on business trips, and in some pretty austere environments. It's tough, simple, and really sharp looking. As the leather ages it takes on a very supple, shiny look. Best bag I've ever owned.

Had this bag for three years. I overload it, throw it around, and generally mistreat it. For this abuse it has repaid me by holding up perfectly. Still looks and performs great.
A very good value too, when compared to other products of similar quality.

This bag walks to work with me every day in rain, snow, heat and cold. The bag has been thrown under countless airplane seats, covered with thick dust in the desert, doused with salt water and generally mistreated on 5 continents. After all of that it looks even more rich than the day I purchased it 3 years ago.

Both my husband and I have used these bags for school, travel, work, etc. He has the brown and I have the camel. They looked beautiful when we bought them, but really do only look better with time. We have had many messenger bags before that rip under the stress of college textbooks or being jostled around in airports. These bags are NOT the same. The straps, riveting, leather, and liners are all SOLIDLY in place.... even after everything they've been through. I HIGHLY recommend!!

Stoic but distraught
Impeding emotion lingers
Glorious thoughts leak through fighting
Fighting for the simplicity of understanding
Emotions engage, controversy
Contemplation of reality, of destiny
Shall I take this step?
Or remain in the confides of my conception
What brews inside, known to one
Loneliness settles, surrounded by many.
The vicious seed of denial planted
Roots into questioning, sprouting into belief
Watered by the current stream of thought
Growing into reality, realization surfaces
Figments give way, loneliness subsides
Giving way for understanding.
Accomplished not alone, But with
Tumblr: A reminder that, you. Are. Not. Alone.

Fire burns at Holly Leaf Apartments
Firefighters responded to a reported structure fire at Holly Leaf Apartments on Friday evening.
A second alarm was called at 7:25 as crews worked to put out the blaze in Building 6.
The fire was quickly contained and crews began trying to determine if anyone was trapped inside and if any apartments would be left uninhabitable at the 2205 Woodleaf Road location.
Crews spent another couple hours at the scene clearing up.

Fingers and toes are crossed tight! I'm pushing hard to get a gaming desktop.....
Need a new pc
Great build. Hope I win!
I have that case!
10/10 Do want. Very nice
I don't know if I've told you this lately but, I love you
I just purchased a Black Pearl from CyberPower that is just a little less beefy than this machine. It would be cool to have two really nice gaming rigs so that my fiancee and I can play together. I just got her into Grand Theft Auto so here's hoping GTA V comes out on PC!
Ooh, a nice looking rig loaded with top-of-the-line components. Would go great with the games from Steam I bought from the Summer Sale.
Awesome! I would love to have that rig. I'll do my best to be active in the forums.
Thanks for putting this contest on!
Too a long time for that confirmation email to arrive but there's still time!
We have fixed the forum email bug that was interrupting things like new user registration email notices, password resets and thread messaging.
Please see here:http://hothardware.com/cs/forums/t/68845.aspx
And you can commence to talking it up again!
Editor In Chiefhttp://hothardware.com
Thanks, That's actually why I ended up just logging in with Facebook.
Interesting thing is that I made a comment directly on Facebook and it showed up here on the forum.
Pretty creepy integrations between sites you got going on. haha
Dustin, just blame the NSA for wanting everyone to share everything :P In all seriousness though it does make it convenient but I like my stuff separated.
My rig - I7-4770K, ASUS Z87-A Mobo, 16 GB Corsair Ram, AMD 7990 GPU, CoolIT AiO Cooler, NZXT H630
I'll blame the NSA for social decay.
But I'll thank the TSA for the X-ray.

CyberPowerPC makes some very high quality PC's.
I've had one before, and the cable management, and build quality was superb.
This is an awesome build. Good components.
Hot hot hot
Prepare yourselves. A storm is coming.
It's a very nice build but, If I were to win this I would take my 670 out of my other PC and put it into that one and possibly raffle off the Radeon card. I would probably take out the coollT cooler and put in my H90.

I would leave it just the way it is. Cyberpower PC has a good warranty in place. Why mess with that?
That's a nice Radeon graphics card, man. But if you really don't want it, I'll take it off your hands. :)
Once again another sweet rig from HH!
Dude I would have to keep the 7990 in there. Unless you got something against the card its better than the 670 any day of the week.
Thanks for the amazing giveaway!
Good luck to all...Bet that CPU is worth it then 3770K :)
Man this is one nice setup you cant ask for much more in this awesome of system.
Looks nice, especially since I am looking to buy new parts. But... I shall never win.
Awesome! : )
I would love to own this machine, as mine is on its last legs, think it may be time to retire my rig if this one comes my way
This beast would definitely run circles around my desktop, that's for sure. ;)

I'm still using a dual core AMD processor with 4GB of RAM on a 32 bit Vista setup. Needless to say, I could really use the upgrade. I'd love to be able to play newer games on settings higher than 'low'.
if I win , can I crossfire it with my 7970? XD
I sure could use a new system like they're giving away. hope I win. if not, cudo's to the lucky winner. :)

Fighting cancer around the world against tremendous odds
By Dr. Corey Casper, Co-Director of UCI/Hutchinson Center Cancer Alliance
Last year, Joanne Silberner, a veteran health reporter and Seattleite, traveled with me to Uganda as part of her journey to three countries on three continents to meet people fighting cancer against tremendous odds.
While there, she toured the Uganda Cancer Institute, where we discussed Fred Hutch's breakthrough research for infection-related cancers to develop more effective treatment and prevention regimens.
We also chatted about the work my team has done to improve the clinical capacity at the Uganda Cancer Institute, and our training program, which educates Ugandan clinicians and support staff to sustain cancer research in Uganda and enhance clinical care.
Our involvement in Uganda is one of the reasons why I'm excited to share PRI's The World's new series, "Cancer's New Battleground: The Developing World." It will feature both Dr. Jackson Orem of the Uganda Cancer Institute and the work my team from the Hutchinson Center Vaccine and Infectious Disease Division is doing in Uganda to prevent infection-related cancers.
Together, we formed the UCI/Hutchinson Center Cancer Alliance in order to research infection-related cancers and to improve cancer care in Uganda—and on a global scale. Since up to one quarter of all cancer worldwide is caused by infections, finding a cure for infection-related cancers is a high-impact strategy for improving global health.
The series will air on PRI's The World on December 3-7 and includes a Global Cancer Facebook chat this Wednesday.
The program will feature segments about the challenges faced by Dr. Orem and the UCI on Dec. 3, and then discuss infection-related cancers with me on Thursday. You'll be able to ask me questions in real time during the Facebook chat at noon PST on The World's Facebook event page.
You can also join the ongoing Twitter discussion through the PRI's website. You can find when your local station airs PRI's The World at this link.
Stay tuned for another post on Wednesday where I'll dive deeper into exactly what Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center is doing in Uganda to try to eliminate infection-related cancers.
Dr. Corey Casper is a Co-Director of UCI/Hutchinson Center Cancer Alliance and the Medical Director of Infection Control for Seattle Cancer Care Alliance and Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. He is also an associate member of Fred Hutch's vaccine and infectious disease, public health sciences and clinical research divisions, and an associate professor of medicine, epidemiology and global health at the University of Washington.

This collection, aptly named 'Facades' by professional photographer Zacharie Gaudrillot-Roy captivates the imagination and senses with style.
source: Zacharie Gaudrillot-Roy
Zacharie Gaudrillot-Roy's Facades is a series that places one in surroundings where the outer shell or facade takes precedence over the actual structure it represents. The Facade is a representation of the surface, much like a cover to a book, yet in this instance it is the building's shell to its contents. The goal is to offer a vision of a world that is only captured in the form of a picture lacking in real space.

NASA's $1 billion opportunities and a preview of the 113th
Thursday - 1/10/2013, 6:58pm EST
This week on BGOV's Capital Impact show hosted by Allen Scott:
- Aerospace Analyst Matthew Zisman examined NASA's fiscal 2013 acquisition forecast, and delivers three new contracts valued at more than $300 million and five re-competitions worth approximately $721 million. If history repeats itself, their 2012 incumbent win rate was 47%, the ball is definitely in your court.
- The overall makeup of the 113th Congress hasn't changed so does that mean we'll get more of the same out of our government? Congressional and Budget Analyst Cameron Leuthy and Chief Legislative Analyst Loren Duggan join the program to discuss just how far we fell off the cliff, Sandy relief and a look into the agenda on the hill in 2013.
|Allen Scott (moderator) specializes in customer on boarding and training at Bloomberg Government. Allen previously worked at Arbitron, Inc. where he served in a variety of roles from customer service to sales operations manager.

Perl's "Laissez-faire Aesthetics"
As Sunil pointed out in the thread where I complain there are no real controversies in contemporary art, Jed Perl offered a text in the New Republic back in February that is still sparking a lively debate (if you're too hurried to register, someone copied the full text here). In a nutshell, Perl argues that the line between high and low art has become too blurred in contemporary fine art. He says we've entered the age of laissez-faire aesthetics, which he defines via the notion that it's widely believed that "any experience that anyone can have with a work of art is equal to any other." He suggests that this blurring has been in the works for a while now (by Pop artists and "Bad" painting artists predominantly), but he notes what he sees as a defining difference between the art made by the pioneers of such explorations and artists working now:
Yet there are differences between garbage then and garbage now. Pop Art and "Bad" Painting were self-consciously ironic; they depended on the existence of a standard that was being mocked or from which one was registering a dissent. Irony, even in the whatever-the-market-will-bear forms that it often assumed in the 1980s and 1990s, was generally accompanied by at least the afterglow of a moral viewpoint. The artists were mocking something. They had a target. This is what has now changed. Laissez-faire aesthetics makes a mockery of nothing. Even irony is too much of an idea. It treats everything equally.Good fodder.
Perl offers pages and pages of support for this position, but it seems to me he builds his central premise on top of a three-legged stool, two legs of which are a bit too wobbly for me, and one leg of which strikes me as solid as Gibraltar. The wobbly legs are 1) his somewhat forced assertion that this all stems from intellectual laziness posing as populism (made all the more wobbly by his repeated misreadings or intentional misuse of Sotheby's Tobias Meyer's term "democracy of access") and 2) his interpretation of Currin and Yuskavage's (to use his examples) blend of high and low signifiers in their unquestionably high-art paintings. The leg that's solid is summarized in his assertion that there is a significant difference between popular culture and high art:
The trouble is that fewer and fewer people are willing to recognize the fundamentally different nature of various forms of cultural experience. And make no mistake, there are essential distinctions that must be made. It is in the very nature of popular culture that its pleasures are ones that we share with a wide range of people simultaneously. And it is in the very nature of high art that its pleasures are ones that we experience as individuals. To insist upon this distinction is not to say that one experience is better and one is worse, it is only to clarify the character of each experience.But let me back up to the wobbly legs.
Populism and the "Democracy of Access" Confusion
Perl asserts that a public that hasn't bothered to accept Modernism (which he seems to approve of) still wants to buy into the romanticism of the Modernist mystique:
One of the strange facts of our time is that although Picasso and Mondrian and Pollock are household names, the middle-class public has never entirely accepted modern art, never fully embraced its mystery and its magic. Even in the face of this deep distrust, however, the public has assimilated the old bohemian belief in a community of artists as a sort of freely established aristocracy, perhaps seeing here another version of the "democracy of access."Perl stretches three times to work this phrase offered by an art world authority, "democracy of access," into his text. Each time moving further from its original meaning. The only reason I could gather he did this was to help underscore his assertion that what drove the "big spenders" of the early 1960s to boast "about how much fun they were having now that they had sloughed off the serious themes of the mid-century abstractionists" in turning from AbEx to Pop was some sense of social equality. It's a muddled position, in my opinion, and a bit weak, as Meyer clearly used that term only to refer to open access to artwork via the auction houses (rather than having to hope a gallery would let you purchase something you wanted if you waited long enough and dance the right steps), not, as Perl, by twisting it this way and that way and wrangling it away from its original meaning, eventually suggests:
The argument for equalization is often presented as if it were a plea for populism, for a "democracy of access."It's a pithy phrasing, so I understand why Perl wanted to run with it, but how hard he had to work to get it there makes me doubt the premise. On this point, I hope he tries again.
Currin and Yuskavage
Perl dislikes the paintings of John Currin and Lisa Yuskavage. Really, really dislikes them. In fact the only thing he seems to dislike more than their paintings are the people who collect them:
It hardly matters that what Currin doesn't know about figure painting would fill volumes, since his collectors know even less, if that is possible.With an irrational leap in logic like that, it's a bit difficult for me to take his other opinions on Currin and Yuskavage seriously, but as he uses their work throughout his text (almost always in conjunction with resentment about how much they cost, mind you) to make his points, we're forced to put our sense of that on hold and venture forward. What I will address in his assessment is what I consider a rather limited view of their respective projects:
The paintings by Currin and Yuskavage that are now going for hundreds of thousands of dollars are engineered for an audience that believes that a work of art can satisfy radically disparate and even contradictory attitudes and appetites, and satisfy them consecutively or concurrently-- it hardly matters. A painting is simply what everybody or anybody says it is, what everybody or anybody wishes it to be.You'll recall that Perl's central complaint about their work is that it targets nothing. He sees only [updated clarification/correction: something less than even] irony .... but I think he's entirely missing the point. Unlike the Pop or "Bad" painting artists, whose work Perl accepts because they were mocking something, Yuskavage and Currin are NOT mocking anything [because] they're totally sincere [not because they don't care as Perl asserts]. What Perl can't seem to grasp is they're just as serious painters as their predecessors; they're simply changing subject matter and being more honest about their influences (i.e., they did watch Disney, even if they also read Homer).
I can't be too harsh on Perl for missing this. It took me quite a while to understand it myself, but now that I get it, I trust what Yuskavage and Currin are doing. One artist working in a similar vein helped me understand this with an example. He noted that rather than from a Bible story or epic poem or classical literature, some of the lessons about morality and being a good person he carries with him were learned from Pop culture (he used the example of the wisdom of Obi-Wan Kenobi in Star Wars, who really is the same philosopher warrior you'll find throughout the stuff they made you read in high school, only with a light saber). Truly and sincerely, that's where he learned them. To then pretend those lessons, which make him the person he is, are beneath his art because of their non-high-art origins is to be dishonest. Further, to suggest that popular culture subjects or themes or styles cannot become the subject of high art ignores more or less all of art history, really. We now automatically associate high-art status to classical themes not because they started out as such (most of them were borne out of popular stories) but because we've seen the high-art products of artists who decided to treat them as such. That, to my mind, is what Currin and Yuskavage are doing, and I see nothing inconsistent about it.
Difference between Pop Culture and High Art
Having said that, I really liked Perl's definition of the difference between popular culture and high art. Again, its essence:
It is in the very nature of popular culture that its pleasures are ones that we share with a wide range of people simultaneously. And it is in the very nature of high art that its pleasures are ones that we experience as individuals.The fact that he can't seem to experience the pleasures of Currin's or Yuskavage's work as an individual doesn't take away from his definition's truth for me.
Personally, I feel what Currin and Yuskavage are doing is perhaps only laying the groundwork for great works to come, but someone has to begin to do so, and I give them credit for taking on this highly complex task of reaching beyond the preordained "high art" realms and bringing a wider range of the contemporary experience, in which popular culture is ubiquitous, and therefore entirely inescapable, into their worldviews and work.
What Perl misses, IMO, is that these artists are not saying all art [experiences are] equal, but rather that an openness to all influences is more honest. It still takes a fine artist to channel those influences into high art, but to pretend one's sense of sexuality, for example, came from watching opera or whatever, when it really came from reading porn, is disingenuous. So is to pretend that in this day and age one's worldview is not heavily influenced by popular culture. The question is not how to block out popular culture, but rather how to seriously and sincerely incorporate the influence it clearly had. I'm not saying they've found the best way to do this yet, but Currin and Yuskavage are leading the way toward that place.

Computers can do many things, but there are some things they can't do. They certainly can't play tennis or the violin, but those aren't the kinds of thing we're concerned with.

ABA's Yingling: traditional bankers must extend their leadership
Calls on them to be guardians of public's trust

- Comments: DISQUS_COMMENTS
Something else needed
"We all need to keep speaking for traditional banking," said Yingling, "…because if we don't speak for banking, others will. We all, in our own small way, must be leaders for our industry, and for our country. We must point the way for a financial services industry of the future that is strong, stable, and fair to all."
Yingling added that there is something else banks must do. He called on them to extend their leadership to all parts of the financial services industry. Referring to the "bad actors" and "bad policies" that "clearly harmed the country," Yingling said, "We must never again allow anyone—anyone, anywhere—in the financial services industry to do such harm." As the leaders of the financial services industry, Yingling called on traditional banks to extend that leadership to all parts of the industry including mortgage brokers and Wall Street speculators.
Yingling then added: "…there is something else we must do. Something closer to home. We must recognize that there have been some—a small minority—but some, within our industry who have not done the right thing. Some simply have not been fair to their customers…. In the future, when we see such unfairness, I believe we must address it and stop it."
True bankers have earned the trust of their customers and their communities, he said. "As we come through these tough times and look ahead, we must be guardians of that trust, and thereby restore public faith in our banking system."
Manage this risk, too
The second major challenge the industry faces, is the massive and complex financial services reform legislation now being debated in Congress. ABA supports reform, Yingling said, "yet this legislation will redesign the financial services industry and determine whether we can compete or not. And Congress could get it wrong."
He called on bankers, who have already been active in contacting their members of Congress, to do more. "You know you have credit risk," said Yingling; "I am asking you to write at the top of your weekly 'to do' list two words—political risk. And I am asking you to promise… to work on that a least once a week."

Hi guys,
I have a shadowcat 2010 that was half-dryfired (cat 1.5 cam) and the bottom cam got slightly bent.
I have been trying to find someone with a pair of those cams on AT to buy,
or to try to contact someone from Martin to see if these could be available to purchase.
So far no luck.
I got only one guy offering me the 2008 Cat cam, but neither him nor me know if the 2008 cat cam and 2010 cat 1.5 are the same?
Does anyone know anything about this?
Also, I have tried to contact martinarchery tech support, but no reply (must have been more than 10 days now).
In any case, I have got a pair of spare limbs for the shadowcat, it is still shootable with the bent cam, however, I'd like it to be as better as possible, so I want to replace the bent cam... How can I get help on this?

you can then check that variable each time if the user has enough acces-rights.
You won't have to check that each time with you're database because you allready did that once (but still, you could check).

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Niles SW6.5 by Dave Bar Why add a powered subwoofer? A powered subwoofer gives you bass you can feel as well as hear. Our customers love the depth and impact their subs add to music and movies. We hear comments like "it brings out sounds I didn't know existed in discs I've watched a million times." Powered subwoofers aren't just for big bass that rattles your picture frames; they can also deliver tight, accurate lows. If you haven't shopped for a powered sub in a while, you might be surprised at how small they get. Look for an ultra-compact model if you want to tuck your sub away under an end table or in a corner. More bass in less space The Niles Audio SW6.5 powered subwoofer makes a great choice when you need some extra bass kick with a tiny, décor-friendly footprint. This potent, ultra-compact sub will fill your room with bass while taking up very little space. Driven by a 200-watt amplifier, the SW6.5's active 6-1/2" woofer and two 6-1/2" passive radiators combine to deliver low-frequency output comparable to that of a much larger sub. Anodized aluminum cones provide added rigidity for lower distortion and better definition compared to conventional paper cone designs. Plus, this sub's versatile inputs, comprehensive controls, and convenient wireless connection options make it easy to add more bass impact wherever you need it in your home. Installer-friendly features The SW6.5 comes packed with features that make it a good choice for both critical listeners and custom installers alike. Adjustable low-pass frequency, phase, and level controls allow precise blending with your main speakers for even in-room response. You also get automated remote power turn-on via a 12-volt trigger or audio signal sensing for simplified operation. A specialized balanced input and built in CAT-5 balun permit efficient audio signal delivery over long runs of inexpensive, easy-to-use CAT-5 cable. (You'll need a second CAT-5 balun at the other end of your signal run.) Or, you can do away with the connecting cables altogether. By adding the optional Niles SW-T and SW-R wireless transmitter and receiver, you can turn your SW6.5 into a wireless sub — perfect for applications where running wire is not an option. Just plug the SW-T transmitter into your receiver's subwoofer output, connect it to power, then attach the SW-R receiver to the built-in mounting port on the rear of the sub. A simple one-button setup is all it takes to pair the two together. As an added bonus, each transmitter can support up to four receivers simultaneously, allowing you to put together a killer multi-sub system.

That's because we have our own in-house Product Research team — they open the box, verify contents, check the owner's manual, and record dimensions, features and specs. We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Overview: The Niles Audio SW6.5 Powered Compact Subwoofer can deliver room-filling bass despite the compact size. The SW6.5 provides superior sound quality for music or home theater applications. The subwoofer has an attractive enclosure with a smudge-resistant piano black finish that is easy to clean. Driver: The SW6.5 is equipped with an 6.5", long-throw, anodized aluminum woofer cone driver. The aluminum cone provides superior rigidity, compared to conventional paper cones. The woofer has a removable cloth-covered plastic grille. Passive Radiator Design: The SW6.5 also has dual 6.5" anodized aluminum cone passive radiators to provide additional driver area. The combined output of the 6.5" driver and the two 6.5" passive radiators equals that of a larger single active driver. There are no grilles covering the passive radiators. Digital Power Amplifier: The subwoofer is powered by a 200-watt (RMS) digital power amplifier (800 watts dynamic power), which produces higher output and higher efficiency with less heat, compared to conventional analog power amps. Line Inputs/Outputs: The SW6.5 features LFE and Stereo line-level (RCA) inputs. There are also unbuffered stereo pass-through line (RCA) outputs, to allow you cascade the output to up to three additional subwoofers. Note: The Left Channel RCA input doubles as the LFE input. C5-A2 Port: In addition to the LFE/Stereo line inputs, the SW6.5 has a C5-A2 port, with an RJ-45 connector, to provide the option of an easier and less expensive wire run using CAT-5 cable from the A/V receiver or surround processor to the subwoofer. This requires the optional Niles CAT-5 Balun adapter using standard CAT-5 wiring. Wireless Ready: The SW6.5 features a wireless input port for connecting the optional Niles Audio SW-R Wireless Receiver. The SW-R attaches directly to the rear panel of the subwoofer. The SW-R, coupled with the SW-T Wireless Transmitter, lets you wirelessly connect the subwoofer to your receiver or surround processor when running speaker wire is not an acceptable option. Controls: The SW6.5 has an adjustable frequency control with a bypass position, which eliminates low pass filtering within the subwoofer, allowing you to fully control the bass filtering with your receiver or preamp. The variable phase control (0° to 180°) allows precise phase matching with the main speakers. The rotary level control lets you dial in the right amount of bass, independent of your main speakers. Turn-On Modes: The SW6.5 has a 2-way Turn-On Mode switch that lets you choose between Signal Sense and Always On. The Signal Sense mode will automatically turn on the subwoofer when it senses an audio signal, and turn off the subwoofer (standby) after a short period of time when no audio signal is detected. There is also an option to leave the subwoofer on at all times. An LED next to the switch will glow green when the subwoofer is on, and red when the subwoofer is in standby mode. Trigger Input: A 3.5mm mini-jack is provided for connecting a 12-volt DC remote trigger cable. In the Signal Sense mode, the subwoofer will turn on automatically when a 12-volt trigger signal is present, and will enter standby mode once the trigger signal is no longer detected. Power Requirements: The Niles Audio SW6.5 can operate at 100-120 volts AC, or 220-240 volts AC, 50-60 Hz, 2A. There is a Voltage Selector switch (under a protective cover) that should be set to the higher voltage setting prior to connecting to a 220-240 volt power supply. Wall/Ceiling Mounting: The SW6.5 includes the option to be mounted on a wall or ceiling utilizing the OmniMount 30.0 ST-MP bracket (sold separately).

Marquetry of the highest caliber adorns the façade of this exceptional Edwardian period bookcase. Constructed entirely of rare Cuban mahogany, this case is adorned with impeccably designed inlay, from the majestic scroll pediment and intricately paned windows to the doors of the lower cabinet. This network of delicate inlaid swags and classical elements is crafted of satinwood, boxwood and naturally colored fruit woods that have maintained both their detail and color for over 100 years, perfectly complementing the richness of the mahogany in this impressive display. The upper doors, which open to reveal an interior of solid mahogany, also feature incredible hand-beveled glass panes, making this bookcase a flawless and well-appointed place to showcase one's most prized collections. To find such an exemplary piece of early Edwardian furniture in such wonderful condition is truly remarkable. Circa 1880 64" wide x 20" depth x 101" high The furniture that is recognized as Edwardian first appeared about 20 years before King Edward VII, for which it is named, ruled England. Characterized by a light and refined elegance, this sleek style featured delicate lines and intricate inlay, and often incorporated classical elements such as swags and urns, bright colors and lightweight fabrics. The first pieces crafted in this style, such as this impeccable bookcase, were of the very best quality. However, it wasn't until the reign of the illustrious Edward VII that this style became popular, and hence was forever associated with this glamorous period.

I really did not know what to expect when I walked in to rent a space. I had called ahead to secure an indoor space, and when I got there I was treated very well, with an upbeat, very knowledgeable, young lady to help me, and was soooo happy! What a great place!Barbara from Rochester, NY
