Enhanced Content???
Posted 22 February 2012 - 03:13 PM
It is becoming annoying because it does at inconvenient times rather than in the middle of the night.
Just what is it downloading?
How can I make it stop?

It is movies, showcases and other things that TiVo's have in them that are available instantly. It should be doing this after 2 hours of inactivity and it will tune to a channel in the 9900 range. Scheduled recordings will interupt the process.
Is there a way to disable this. It has become very annoying.
Every morning it is taking up a tuner for a couple of hours... just when I like to pop back and forth between news channels.
Would setting up an internet connection make it stop usurping a tuner?

Switch to the tuner displaying that message.
Press the Record button on the remote control
On the screen that is displayed, select Stop the current recording.
That should do the trick.
Apparently this is a known issue and hopefully will be fixed in a future release.

It's constant use of the second tuner denies me the full use of the DVR as I leave the second tuner on another channel that I often watch.
When it takes that tuner and completes what ever it is doing, it doesn't return the tuner to the channel that I had previously set, but puts it on the same channel as tuner 1.
If it returned the tuner to the channel that it was on before it grabbed it, it wouldn't be so bad, but it doesn't. So it is really interfering and denying me the full use of my DVR.
It's not recording anything anyway. The time line is not moving and I get a message saying to "check phone or internet connection to order this program"
Even giving the movie that it is trying to record 3 thumbs down doesn't stop it.
I have stopped the recording 3 times, and after a short period of time, it was at it again trying to record the same program. Once it took tuner 1, the one that I was viewing and started trying to record a movie.
It has become a big inconvenience.
D* needs to add a menu option the turn this feature off as we should have a choice, or at least have the tuner returned to the channel that it was on after it does what ever it is trying to do.

This in unacceptable. We pay for this service, including two tuners.

This interferes with how I use my DVR.
According to D*, if tuner 2 does not see any activity after 30min, it will take over the tuner to do whatever "Enhanced Content" is trying to do.
If it would do this in the early AM like 0200 hrs instead of anytime around the clock, and put the tuner back to the channel that it found it on, it might not be so bad, but it doesn't.
When I turn on the TV in the AM, I find that both tuners are on the same channel, I know that the "Enhanced Content" do nothing process occurred again.
Also, it is very covert about doing it. Although there is no "Red" record lamp lit on the front of the DVR, when you bring up the right arrow banner, the second tuner record light is lit, so you wouldn't even know that it is doing this unless you do a right arrow to see the title of the movie that is on tuner 1. I do a 3 thumbs down on the movie it is recording, but that doesn't help. It just keeps trying to record the same movie again.
Even when you find it doing the "Enhanced Content" and stop it, it will just start it up again. it did it to me 3 times in a row, and didn't wait 30min to try to do it again.
Why doesn't D* just do this type of process when it downloads its service data at 0200 so as to not disrupt how I use the DVR?
I don't think that D* really thought through the consequences of how they do the "Enhanced Content" process.
It is a real pain in the A** to have D* disrupt my use of the DVR.

Then every morning, you should have one tuner set to the right channel with a 30 minute news buffer.
Posted 30 June 2012 - 01:28 PM
I suggest that all who want this to go away call and ask for the Cancellation Department and make your complaint. I've found that it's the Directv section that can and will really help you. Don't threaten to cancel or otherwise get mad at the Rep, just make the case for getting enhanced content eliminated from Directv HD TiVos.
Posted 30 June 2012 - 02:21 PM
Whatever enhanced content is I never see it so why do I get it? I want it to stop screwing up what I'm wanting to watch. It's probably OK for people with Directv DVRs since they can't use both tuners at the same time anyway. Refined/sophisticated customers (TiVo guys) wring more out of their service than just watching one channel at a time.

DIRECTV DVR's can use dual buffers as well so it has nothing to do with that. Even before with TiVo's they received an update nightly which would take away a tuner. Telling a CSR that you don't like the way your TiVo works is pointless as TiVo designs the software for it so they have set it up like this.

While I'm sure you're correct and I thank you for the info, I still hate it, don't understand what it is as I never see it, and want it to stop. How can we all work together to get this done?
Either work around it or get a non TiVo HD DVR. This is the way it's going to be for these units.

If Tivo controls the SW as much as DirecTV swears by, why does the DTV/TiVo agreement have a clause that Tivo can not speak of the thr22 other then it exists? You keep telling people to go to Tivo but they are legally silenced to speak. Add to that, my check goes to DirecTV not Tivo. Its a DirecTV dvr with Tivo. So if anyone has a problem, you go through DirecTV. I've never seen a prime contractor take so little responsibility on one of its products and blame the subcontractor.
DirecTV needs to take responsibility for its products. I don't care what issues they have with their subcontractor. They need to resolve it. If the agreement was nothing more then a no ligation contract, shame on both companies to limp out a new box with no support as some meaningless gesture.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

that when the clock ran out they would need a symbolic moment to tip
favor. The FSA and defectors attacks have made it more difficult for
the peaceful opposition to operate because it sped up the timeline.

aggressive propaganda drive to give the impression that the
Alawite community is splintering and that the Syrian regime is
cracking from within. Upon closer examination, most of the more
serious opposition claims have turned out to be grossly
exaggerated or simply untrue[wait, is this really true? it
seems like some have been much closer to accuracy than others.
Such as the LCC and FSA vs. the Observatory. Even if the former
are exaggerating the detail and numbers, the events have
generally been confirmed by state media, right?]we have very few
options to answer this question with any confidence. we don't
know who is accurate, who is telling the truth or how to verify
any numbers either way., thereby revealing more about the
opposition's constraints than the level of instability inside
That last sentence is strange because the point of propoganda
tactics are to exaggerate and be untrue, so them doing that would
not point to constraints but rather a capability to manipulate
information well among the broader media. It's their inability to
coordinate/organize that serve as their constraints, not that the
claims are untrue. agree the point of propaganda is to create a
story or truth that you define. the best propaganda is like the
best legend, it is mostly true. most info comes from the Syrian
Obervatory of Human Rights, SNC, the LCC or the FSA - especially for
western media outlets- the oppostion (that is not a monolith) seemed
to be doing a better job of coordinating propaganda considering it
has literally been their entire operation for months. the increased
attacks by defectors have changed that somewhat and it seems it is
becoming more difficult to get everyone under control
Crucial to Syrian President Bashar al Assad's ability to hold
his regime together is his ability to keep his own al Assad clan
united, his Alawite-dominated army united and the wider Alawite
community united. Once his patronage networks unravel and the
strongmen of the regime start viewing each other as
liabilities[what makes them a liability and how does this
compare to a patronage network? i'm not really sure what you're
saying here] worthy of elimination, the demise of the regime
would not be far off.
This is a concept well understood by various groups operating
under the Syrian opposition umbrella who are trying to create
the conditions for foreign intervention to bring the regime
down. The Syrian opposition movement is exhibiting more
coherence (link) today than it did three months ago, but is
still having very mixed results when it comes to the success of
their disinformation efforts. Several opposition claims in the
past week are revealing of this trend:
1) Syrian opposition officials[it's really unclear who did
this and it went to a very small outlet that did not get picked
up. this is not at all the same as officials of the
Observatory. I think Ashley's point about this being someone
else tangentially connected-- a random activist, an intelligence
agency, a pro-democracy NGO, all see more possible than one of
the established opposition groups] in London disseminated[be
clear about ht emedia sources that disseminated this. it was
not opposition sources. It was some random newspapers that
Ashley and Siree sent in, and then Ynet got it on sunday.] a
report Dec. 10 citing unnamed sources that claimed Syrian Deputy
Defense Minister and former chief of military intelligence Asef
Shawkat was killed following an altercation he had with his aide
and former General Security Directorate chief Gen. Ali Mamlouk.
The story alleged that the two officials had gotten into an
argument and that Shawkat died from his wounds after being
secretly rushed to a hospital in Damascus. Other Syrian
opposition sources claimed Shawkat was in a coma.
It wasn't the actual Syrian opposition officials who disseminated
the report though. Ynet's cited an unconfirmed report which sounded
a lot like the Arabic articles and all the Arabic articles traced
back to one Sydney-based Arabic site with an empty "About Us" page.
It could have been some lowly Syrian minister's assistant who lives
in London and wanted to sound important or some reporter in Sydney
who wanted a scoop. I know we address that this didn't gain traction
in most media outlets/is probably not true but IMO it's even a
stretch to put it in the category of aggressive propaganda tactics
because I doubt the person who wrote it knew all the stuff about
Shawkat below and had that intention. I would've addressed this in
the discussion if I had gotten to it, my bad.
The idea of two senior-ranking Sunni members of the regime
engaged in a death match[a shooting is not a death match. this
WC exaggerates what even might have happened] makes for a
compelling narrative for an opposition movement trying to
undermine the perception that al Assad still has an inner circle
united in their effort to suppress the opposition and save the
regime. Shawkat, the president's brother-in-law, is a
particularly controversial member
http://www.stratfor.com/analysis/syria_trouble_damascus of the
regime given his ongoing feud with the president's younger
brother and head of the elite Republican Guard forces Maher al
Assad (it has been rumored that Maher al Assad shot and wounded
Shawkat in a row between the two in 1999.) Shawkat was also
placed under temporary house arrest
in 2008 following allegations that Shawkat was involved in a
conspiracy to assassinate Hezbollah commander Imad Mughniyeh[as
written it sounds like a conspiracy that wasn't carried out. be
clear that that kafir Mughniyah is dead.]. If outside attempts
were being made to split the regime, Shawkat would likely be
among the first regime strongmen to be sought out to instigate a
palace coup against his in-laws. High-ranking Sunni regime
figures like Shawkat and Mamlouk warrant close monitoring, but
STRATFOR has found no evidence backing up the opposition claims
that Shawkat was killed. The story also failed to gain traction
with Syria's more prominent opposition outlets, such as the
Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, the Free Syrian Army or the
Local Coordinating Committee, much less mainstream media outlets
in the West. but we haven't seen him alive either, right?
2) A group calling itself the Alawite League of Coordinating
Committees issued a statement Oct. 9 to the London-based,
Saudi-owned Asharq al Awsat news Web site in which it claimed
representation of the Alawite community in Syria and rejected
any attempt to hold the Alawite sect responsible for the
"barbarism" of the al Assad regime. The report described the Al
Shabbihah[sp?] militias that have been used to crack down on
protestors as tools of the al Assad regime that have nothing to
do with the Alawite community. This report gives the impression
that the Alawite community is fracturing and that the al Assad
regime is facing a serious loss of support from his own minority
sect. However, there is no record of the so-called Alawite
League of Coordinating Committees, and a STRATFOR source in the
Syrian opposition acknowledged that this group was nonexistent
and was in fact an invention of the Sunni opposition in Syria.
3) Beginning Dec. 9, Syrian opposition groups, including the
Syrian National Council (SNC), the Free Syrian Army and the
UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, disseminated
reports claiming that the regime forces had besieged the city of
Homs? and mandated a 72-hour deadline for Syrian defectors to
turn themselves and their weapons in or else face extinction.
Though regime forces have been cracking down in Homs, there have
been no signs of a Homs massacre as the Syrian opposition has
been implying. Syrian opposition forces have an interest in
portraying an impending massacre, along the lines of what
propelled a foreign military intervention in Libya to prevent
Ghadafi's forces from leveling the opposition stronghold of
Benghazi. However, the regime has been calibrating its
crackdowns for this very reason, being careful to avoid high
casualty numbers that could lead to an intervention on
humanitarian grounds.
4) Syrian Local Coordination Committees called for a "strike
of dignity" Dec. 12 to demonstrate that the regime has lost the
backing of the merchant class. The Syrian Observatory for Human
Rights reported that the strike was followed in opposition
strongholds such as Homs, Deraa and Douma and that it was
spreading to the financial hub of Aleppo in the northeast. The
regime countered the strike call with an eight-page photo spread
in state media showing shops that remained open. Meanwhile,
STRATFOR sources in Damascus reported that they received
multiple text messages from an American phone number calling on
them to strike, and that the strike largely went ignored in the
capital. The reality of what resulted from the strike call
likely lies somewhere in between the opposition and regime
claim, but it appears that a significant number of Syrians still
do not feel it is worth the risk to openly confront the regime.
There are a lot of moving parts within Syria's opposition
camp[of course there are, because it's not a camp. it's a bunch
of different groups that may communicate, but are not
coordinated], and not all these claims are coordinated by
mainstream groups, such as the Free Syrian Army, Local
Coordinating Committees and the Syrian Observatory for Human
Rights. just need to be really clear here or somewhere that it
is very difficult to have a good situational awareness of what's
really happening on the ground in Syria in terms of tactical
details.[yes, and that these are the few sources that at least
provide a baseline or narrative to follow.] Though the stories
may not always be the result of a fully coordinated effort, the
overall propaganda effort includes the following core
a) Convincing Syrians inside Syria (going beyond the Sunni
majority to include the minorities that have so far largely
backed the regime) that the regime is splitting and therefore
not worth backing any longer
b) Convincing external stakeholders, such as the United
States, Turkey and France, that the regime is splitting and that
the regime is prepared to commit massacres to put down the
unrest, along the lines of what the regime carried out in 1982
in Hama.
c) Convincing both Syrians and external stakeholders that the
collapse of the al Assad regime will not result in the level of
instability that has plagued Iraq for nearly a decade, nor will
result in the rise of Islamist militias as what appears to be
the case in Libya. To this end, the FSA has emphasized its
defensive operations and defense of civilians to avoid being
branded as terrorists, while the political opposition has
stressed that they are interested in keeping the state
structures intact so as to avoid the Iraq scenario of having to
rebuild the state from scratch amid a sectarian war.
Syrian opposition groups have improved in their ability to
develop journalist contacts and get their stories out to
mainstream western media outlets, such as Reuters, AFP and BBC.
Not a day goes by now without western wire services running
stories quoting the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights in
reporting the number of dead in Syria without the ability to
verify the information. Western media is also increasingly
reporting claims emanating from the FSA. The various opposition
group's disinformation campaign does have its limits, though.
The lack of coordination among various opposition outlets and
the unreliability of the reports threaten to undermine the
credibility of the opposition as a whole. Inside Syria, the
regime is also waging a relatively successful counter-propaganda
to brand opposition fighters as armed terrorists. On the
external front, the Syrian regime has found support from the
Russian foreign ministry, which has recently condemned the west
for its alleged "double standards" in relying on biased
reporting while sanctioning Syrian media outlets.
Though Syrian opposition groups have been able to run a more
organized campaign to disseminate information to western media,
such efforts are still lacking a complementary political effort
inside these western countries to create the justification for
intervention via the media. From the threat of Iranian
retaliation to the logistical complications involved in carrying
out a military campaign in Syria to the general fear of the
unknown of what instability regime collapse could actually
bring, there are still a lot of factors impeding the path toward
military intervention, and propaganda alone will not be able to
shift that part of the equation.

HP ProLiant BL680c G7 E7-4830 2P 64GB-R Server
(643782-B21)Overview | |
The BL680c G7 provides maximum performance and unparalleled scale-up expansion never before seen in a 4P x86 blade. This creates an extremely powerful database engine while handling very demanding workloads and making traditional 4P rack to blade transition a true reality.
The ProLiant BL680c G7 supports the E7-4800 family and E7-8867L processors. Four 130W processors are supported with 64 RDIMM slots for 2.0TB of memory, 7 PCIe Gen2 I/O slots, and 6 10Gb FlexFabric CNA ports for standard Ethernet to advanced networking.
By designing a balanced architecture, the server is a very unique 4P blade offering ensuring all subsystems are used effectively. Traditional 4P blades are often unbalanced, providing CPU performance and density at the expense of proportional memory and I/O bandwidth. These server often fail when faced with larger databases, higher-density virtualization and general data-intensive applications.

Never Before Seen Multiprocessor Scalability in a Blade Server
World's first 4P server blade to support a two terabytes of memory providing the ultimate database machine, ability to handle very large consolidation projects and a variety of data-demanding workloads
Up to four top performing Intel Xeon E7-4800 processors each up to 130 watts deliver maximum computing power
Increased performance now supporting the Intel® Xeon® E7-4800 family and E7-8867L processors
60 Gb of embedded FlexFabric ports and seven (7) I/O expansion slots bring the total maximum I/O bandwidth to 192 Gb supporting up to 273 VMs
Double the memory capacity via support for 32GB RDIMMs; world's first 4P blade to support 2.0TB of memory
Four hot-plug SAS/SATA/SSD bays for up to 4.0 TB of internal storage powered by a high performance Smart Array P410i 6Gb controller for RAID 0 and 1 standard and optional flash backed write cache options to 1 GB with RAID 1+0, 5, and 6 capability
Improved power efficiency via low voltage RDIMM support, a new, more power economical memory buffer, E7-8867L low power processor, and Intel Intelligent Power Technology
Enhanced RAS with Double Device Data Correction (DDDC), HP Memory Quarantine, and Intel Virtualization Technology VT-x Real Mode & Pause Loop Exiting enhancements
Added system security via Intel Advanced Encryption Standard New Instructions (Intel AES-NI)
Six Embedded HP Virtual Connect 10Gb FlexFabric Adapters
Enhanced Core Disable allowing more control over enabling/disabling processor cores.
Integrated Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and hardware-based iSCSI with iSCSI boot simplify management and lower infrastructure costs by converging LAN and SAN traffic over the same flexible connection
Ability to utilize the adapter high-end FlexFabric features or configure than as standard 1Gb or 10Gb Ethernet ports
Making Multiprocessor Server Rack to Blade Transition a True Reality
Performance, memory, and I/O slot expandability equal to or greater than a typical 4P x86 rack server
Reduce rack space up to 58%. Consolidate four standard 4P rack servers and eight high performance LAN/SAN edge switches (that can occupy up to 24U) into a single 10U c7000 enclosure.
Radically simplify system design and lower cost by eliminating all rack server to edge switch cables and decrease power cables to no more than six
The HP BladeSystem enclosures also eliminate individual server management cables, consolidating them into just one (or two for redundancy) even further simplifying system design
Fully Balanced, Optimized Intel Xeon 4S Architecture
With major advances in processor performance, applications are already memory and I/O bound, not processor. Yet, typical server blades are often unbalanced, providing processor performance and density at the expense of proportional memory capacity, I/O bandwidth, and storage.
The Intel Xeon E7-4800 processor family represent Intel's greatest performance leap in history over the previous generation Intel Xeon 4-core 7400 series. Rather than provide a processor-heavy design, the BL680c G7 fully optimizes all the capabilities of the E7-4800 multiprocessor 4S architecture.
Each socket includes the maximum allowable two memory controllers that each have two Intel Scalable Memory Interface (SMI) buses. Each SMI connects to a memory buffer that supports four 16 GB DIMMs for a total of 16 DIMMs per processor socket (64 DIMMs or up to 2.0 TB of memory per server).
Each socket supports 130 watts allowing up to four maximum performing E7-4800 processors

The educational parts happened last May 24 and 25, 2013. We organized an Umpiring and Refereeing Seminar on Friday and Technical Seminar on Saturday.
These events were possible because we had the presence of Sabum Nim Mariusz Steckiewicz the ITF Asian Consultant. " A lot of things were cleared in the technical aspect" according to 3rd Degree Black Belt Nestor Madelar , Vice-President of ITF Philippines. The short talk of Sabum Nim Mariusz with regards to handling of Seminar with the different leaders of ITF in the Philippines made the tournament eld on Sunday more professional. " We had better flow of the tournament because of the refereeing and judging Seminar held on Saturday. It was a great help and it will change our system of holding tournaments in the country." according to IVth Degree Black Belt Jun Sta. Ana.
The whole ITF Philippines appreciates and greatly thank Sir Mariusz in showing us how to run a tournament effectively and for sharing again his ITF Taekwon-Do knowledge. This weekend of Taekwon-do events was attended by practitioners from different parts of Philippines as far as south of the Philippines and the mountainous area north of Manila. Present also for the first time in the National Championships is Mr. Danny Dublin who is the son of ITF Philippine's founder Mr. Lemuel Dublin. Mr. Danny Dublin heads Antipolo ITF. ITF Davao Head Alphard Salatandre says" It is good that the NGB ITF Philippines lets its members experience this specially seminar from a person from ITF overseas". Everyone including the friends and relatives of the practitioners were exhausted but wish for another weekend like this next summer.
ITF Philippines would like to thank also the ITF heads specially Grand Master Pablo Trajtenberg for letting Sabum Nim Mariusz Steckeiwicz to come over in the Philippines to facilitate the seminars.

Disability parking is not a special privilege, but a necessity. The spaces are needed to give people with mobility limitations the same opportunities to use public or private facilities as people who do not have disabilities.
Because some people cannot walk, or because a visible or hidden impairment makes walking difficult or hazardous, people with disabilities are at a disadvantage. This is particularly true in winter if disability parking is not provided or is left obstructed.
Disability parking spaces also provide extra space for people in wheelchairs when getting in and out of a vehicle.

Improving food safety is critical in the United States, where an estimated 48 million cases of foodborne disease occur annually. Food contaminated with dangerous bacteria and other pathogens such as E. coli O157:H7 and Salmonella cause an estimated 3,000 deaths each year, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Foodborne illnesses are particularly dangerous for vulnerable groups, such as young children and older adults, and can lead to long term health problems or even death. Pew's work in this area seeks to reduce health risks from foodborne pathogens by strengthening federal government authority and the enforcement of food safety laws.

My dad had a turkey pit in the backyard which stayed covered all year long. But on Thanksgiving Eve he would take off the cover to light a huge fire and cook quite a few turkeys in the pit for our big feast the following day with our cousins and second cousins. My siblings and I used to love to be in the backyard with my dad late at night and visit with him around the "campfire" as he cooked the turkeys. We would generally stay up late watching movies, because cooking the turkeys was an all night event. I remember this being such an act of service that he would stay up all night to cook turkeys for everyone. And he still does it to this day! THANKS for GIVING of your precious time Dad!
On Thanksgiving Day we would go with all our extended family (we're talking in the hundreds here) to a place called South Mountain where there were many covered picnic tables reserved just for us! I remember a large concrete slab where the cousins would play volleyball. I remember another concrete slab and I would always bring my roller skates to skate on it. There was also a small mountain (more of a hill) for us to climb. The food was tremendous - a family full of people who LOVED to cook, meant LOTS of fantastic fattening food! THANKS for GIVING wonderful family of cooks!
Now that time has moved on, the memories are for my children. Thanksgiving Day is a busy one for us...and definitely a filling one! Both mine and my husband's families live 10 minutes from each other. So we go and feast at one house (at least we try to do 1/2 portions) and from there go to feast again! Even though sometimes it's tough fitting them both in, my kids are so lucky that they get to see both sets of grandparents, and all their uncles and aunts and cousins on the same day! I wouldn't have it any other way. THANKS for GIVING to my immediate family and my in-laws. You are making memories for my kids that will last a lifetime!
I just love Thanksgiving and the memories that I have and the memories that I am making. I love to think about how much people GIVE on Thanksgiving. So, THANKS for GIVING, and have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Let's do a li'l poll today, shall we?
After we went on Daylight Savings, everyone asked, What are you doing with the extra hour? But baseball fans know that after the season comes to a close, the question is, What are you going to do with extra three hours? The three hours you would have spent listening to/watching/following with bitten nails The Game of that day.
Every year it's different for me. As of yet (thankfully) I have not taken up knitting or potholder weaving or anything like, but I have started to actually read things I've been meaning to read for… a while.
Yesterday, as I got to the end of a book, I actually found myself wondering why, after all these months, I was finally reading this book, and then realized that it is, of course, due to the offseason.
But enough about me (okay, it's never enough about me, but let's just pretend it is for the time being).
Or are you just spending a million hours a day on baseball trade rumor websites? Because if so, I'd like to inform you that experts have concluded that is really not good for your mental health, so I suggest you cease and desist on that. Then again, if your Twitter feed becomes overrun with boxing talk like it did for me last night, it might be the only way to stay sane. Paradoxes, paradoxes.

Carl Daikeler Chairman & CEO Beachbody
Beachbody designed ActiVit Metabolism Formula to be safe and effective, sourced with natural vitamins, minerals, herbs, and plant extracts—and then we added extra ingredients to enhance your results from regular fitness training
This unique formulation was designed to give you maximum energy for an active lifestyle, but ActiVit Metabolism is great to take even if you aren't exercising as much as you'd like.
You can take these vitamins even if you never work out! The key is to take ActiVit every day. Aside from the daily essential vitamins you need, we chose the following ingredients because they have been shown to positively affect your metabolism and energy levels while burning off fat.*
We made some inquiries into what scientists and researchers are saying about our ingredients. We invite you to read what they said:
Green tea Green tea extract has been demonstrated to safely increase human metabolism and provide excellent antioxidant activity. Researchers have studied the effects of green tea extract on subjects and found that the number of calories used was measurably higher for participants taking green tea extract than for those taking simple caffeine, a placebo, or no supplement. In clinical trials, green tea extract has consistently been proven to be one of the safest and most validated ingredients
Pyruvate Pyurvate is a compound that occurs naturally in the body, and has been shown to have a profound effect on body fat and endurance. Research has shown that pyruvate can increase fat loss and can minimize the associated loss of lean muscle mass. (This is unusual, because we almost always lose muscle when we lose fat!) Pyruvate has even been shown to reduce fat without exercise.
Pyruvate can improve exercise performance by enhancing the transport of glucose into the muscle cell (muscles need glucose during exercise or they can more easily become fatigued). Subjects using pyruvate reported sustained energy levels without the unwanted side effects of caffeine or other stimulants.
Pyruvate also:
Alpha-lipoic acid: the metabolic antioxidant Alpha-lipoic acid is a nonvitamin coenzyme that carries out important metabolic and antioxidant functions in the body. It helps burn carbohydrates, fat, and protein while disposing of free radicals.
Vanadyl sulfate Vanadyl sulfate is a trace mineral and antioxidant. Antioxidants are beneficial because they protect against tissue damage during exercise, helping recovery and maintaining higher energy levels. Vanadyl has been shown to reduce soreness after vigorous exercise. It is being used more and more to help prevent excess LDL cholesterol (the bad kind) and triglycerides (blood fat). Vanadyl sulfate is also popular with bodybuilders because it may improve insulin action or mimic insulin in the body. Insulin helps muscle grow and can therefore help maximize muscle definition.
Thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and pantothenic acid These compounds have been found to boost the body's metabolism, helping convert fat to fuel and increasing muscle strength and tone. By enhancing metabolic energy, you can exercise longer and reduce fatigue. Also, thiamin helps to reduce the onset of lactic acid buildup, so you don't "hit the wall" during strenuous bursts of physical activity as easily. (The "burn" you sometimes feel is the onset of lactic acid.) Reducing lactic acid buildup can also decrease post-workout soreness.
Magnesium Magnesium lets you work out harder while decreasing the likelihood of cramping. It is also recommended by many doctors as a daily supplement for health of the heart. Magnesium is an essential mineral that helps to regulate the heart's neuromuscular activity and maintain normal heart rhythm. Because of this function and its nerve and muscle support, magnesium may also be helpful for fatigue, nervousness, anxiety, insomnia, depression, and muscle cramps.
Cayenne fruit This natural herb can cause dilation of blood vessels in the microcirculation. This process speeds nutrient delivery to the tissues and allows for efficient removal of metabolic waste from the muscles. By eliminating waste and delivering nutrients, muscles can function more effectively.
Chromium chelate Chromium is found in the best exercise supplements because it is natural, it helps enhance muscle tone, and it aids in the reduction of body fat. Chromium is reported to lower cholesterol and help stabilize and regulate blood sugar levels. More than 90% of Americans are believed to be chromium deficient.
Alpha-ketoglutaric acid Alpha-ketoglutaric acid plays a vital role in the Krebs cycle, the system utilized by your body to release large amounts of energy. It also contributes indirectly to the stabilization of blood glucose levels during exercise, fasting, or a very low-calorie diet. Alpha-ketoglutaric acid may be an important adjunct to proper diet and training for the athlete who desires peak performance, and may reduce the loss of lean body mass.
Choline Choline is very important in controlling fat and cholesterol buildup in the body; it prevents fat from accumulating in the liver and facilitates the movement of fats in the cells. It is also thought to help improve memory.

AutoCAD Electrical
What's New
AutoCAD Electrical is a specialized 2D design software that is purpose-built to create and modify electrical control systems in an efficient and easy work flow.
Free Trial
Electrical Software offers controls designers immediate productivity gains with a new set of specialized tools, smarter drawings, and enhanced features. It contains all the functionality of AutoCAD
, the world's leading CAD software, plus a comprehensive set of electrical specific features and functions that offer significant productivity gains. As part of the Autodesk's solution for Digital Prototyping, AutoCAD Electrical helps manufacturers get their products to market faster with lower costs.
AutoCAD Electrical's smarter drawings save time, reduce errors, and help create innovative electrical control designs. Associative production drawings and features, such as automated component insertion, help speed drawing creation, thus accelerating design time. Furthermore, designers can make design changes faster and more accurately than with basic AutoCAD software. A major factor for this accuracy is the multi-disciplined symbol libraries for electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, piping, and instrumentation diagrams.
650,000 electrical symbols and components library accelerates design creation
Automatic wire numbering and component tagging is faster and more accurate than manual methods
Real-time error checking catches mistakes earlier
Real-time coil and contact cross-referencing
Smart panel layouts provide key information to help designer manage complexity
Electrical-specific drafting features create a tool that is specialized to the task

650,000 Electrical Symbols
650,000 Electrical Symbols provide a comprehensive library that increases productivity by allowing users to quickly add standards based symbols.
Standards include JIC, IEC, GB, JIS and AS. A simple, menu-driven system for inserting electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic, and piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) devices enables you to quickly build standards-based controls designs by selecting frequently used devices from a menu. The comprehensive symbol library includes devices such as the following:
Electrical Symbols
• Push buttons
• Selector switches
• Pilot lights
• Relays
• Contacts
• Fuses
• Terminals and more
P&ID Symbols
• Tanks and vessels
• Valves
• Pumps
• Nozzles
• Flow arrows
Hydraulic and
Pneumatic Symbols
• Valves
• Regulators
• Filters
Automated Wire Numbering and Component Tagging
Automatic wire numbering and component tagging helps you quickly and accurately assign wire numbers and tags.
Automated Wire Numbering and Component Tagging
Automatic wire numbering and component tagging helps you quickly and accurately assign wire numbers and tags.
This feature automatically places sequential or reference based numbers on all wires and components based on the chosen configuration. Reference-based numbers and tags automatically receive a suffix to ensure unique names (i.e. 406, 406A, 406B) and numbering conventions are flexible enough to meet most design requirements. AutoCAD
Electrical can determine if an inserted wire number will overlap with anything and will search laterally along the wire for a clear spot to land the wire number.
Automatic Project Reports
Automatic Project Reports help you instantly generate accurate reports such as Bill of Materials, From/To Wire Lists, Cable Lists, Terminal Reports, and more.
Automatic Project Reports
Automatic Project Reports help you instantly generate accurate reports such as Bill of Materials, From/To Wire Lists, Cable Lists, Terminal Reports, and more.
Reports can be run on a current drawing, a collection of drawings, the entire project, or on a specific location or panel in a project. Reports can be placed into a drawing as a smart table object that can be easily updated at a later time or be saved to a file. AutoCAD Electrical supports saving reports out into ASCII, Microsoft
Excel, Microsoft
Access, CSV or XML formats.
Smart Panel Layout Drawings
Smart Panel Layout Drawings simplify the creation process by syncing with components in the schematic.
Smart Panel Layout Drawings
Smart Panel Layout Drawings simplify the creation process by syncing with components in the schematic.
You choose a footprint representation of each device to be inserted into the layout and a link is automatically created between the device and its representation. Changes flow in both directions, so whether you edit the schematic or panel representation they will always be in sync. Non-schematic items like wire duct and mounting hardware can be added to the layout and automatically combined to create a "smart" panel bill-of-materials report.
Purpose Built Commands
Significantly increased efficiency due to specialized commands for creating electrical control systems.

Jay Cutler blossoming from Trestman's tutelage
BY RICK TELANDER firstname.lastname@example.com | @ricktelander October 11, 2013 12:42AM
It's hard to imagine quarterback Jay Cutler signing a new deal for anything less than $100 million, with $45 million to $50 million guaranteed. | Getty Images

- Snap counts from Bears' win over Giants
Updated: October 11, 2013 1:26PM
It would be nice to have an opponent like the Giants every week — at least for the Bears' Jay Cutler.
His first-half numbers Thursday night at Soldier Field were positively Manning-like. Peyton Manning, that is. (Whatever has happened to two-time Super Bowl-winning Giants quarterback Eli Manning is another story.)
In the first two quarters, Cutler completed 13 of 18 passes for 179 yards with two touchdowns, no interceptions and a glitzy 140.7 rating. It brought to mind the cautious but precisely effective play of All-World New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees against the Bears on Sunday.
But the aforementioned Eli Manning did as much to lose this game as Cutler did to win it. Sort of. Because the key thing for a conservative quarterback is not throwing interceptions or giving up fumbles or sacks while still being able to create scores. And Manning dished up three picks, one particularly horrendous one that was returned for a touchdown by Bears cornerback Tim Jennings.
Cutler had good touch all night, lofting the ball nicely over charging defenders, zipping it on out patterns and square-ups. There were at least two drops, including one by lime-green-footed diva Brandon Marshall. So it goes.
But there were no egregious mistakes by Cutler, no brain-locks, as there were four days earlier in the loss to the Saints, in which he was part of two fumbles — one lost — in the first two offensive series. Say this, the guy can learn. And, apparently, Marc Trestman can coach.
It was interesting what Giants coach Tom Coughlin said afterward about his possible Hall of Fame quarterback from the legendary Manning family and what Eli needs with his god-awful 0-6 team: "You can coach him. You can coach him the way you coach anybody."
The way Cutler obviously was coached by Trestman since the Saints loss, when Cutler actually had better stats than in this win. But stats, need we remind anyone, are deceptive.
"Offensively, we played a very clean game," said Trestman, now 4-2 in his NFL head-coaching career. "Jay took care of the football."
He did. He threw it out of bounds when needed. He took an intentional-grounding call rather than fling the ball up for grabs or hang on to it and get creamed. All learned skills.
"We tried to stick to things we felt comfortable with," Cutler said.
His final stats — 24-for-36 for 262 yards, two touchdowns and a 106.5 rating — were conservative, particularly in this 300-yards-passing-is-nothing era, but he never was sacked and he didn't get hurt on his three scrambles and he didn't turn the ball over. By the end, he was able to handoff off to running backs Matt Forte and Michael Bush, simply to protect the 27-21 lead the Bears had piled up.
You see, throwing for huge numbers — needing to throw for huge numbers — is not the way to win most games. One supposes that Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo's 506 yards in the air last week, to go with a Cowboys loss, pretty much says it all.
"We feel good about the win," Cutler said. "A lot of positives."
This was true, even if Manning's interceptions — he has an astounding 15 already — made it virtually impossible for the Bears to lose. That is, if Cutler didn't match Manning screw-up for screw-up. Which he did not.
Nor did he let Marshall's early drop or the wide receiver's neediness or desire to be center stage (those non-regulation shoes, by the way, will cost Marshall more than five grand) get in the way of what needed to be done to win. (We'll suppose that young, record-setting wideout Alshon Jeffery is OK with Marshall getting more passes than he.)
Cutler's short first-down completion to tight end Martellus Bennett against an all-out Giants blitz with under two minutes to go sealed the win and was, in microcosm, a look at how the Bears likely will need to win most games this year.
Sometimes a wild horse can be trained by being broken. Other times, and in the best of times, it happens by having the horse and rider work together to overcome problems, to visualize the world through the other one's talent and know that each can do best when pleasing the other.
The Bears have had three wins this season by a combined 10 points (not including their rout of the Steelers). Cutler and Trestman are horse and rider. And right now they're galloping along.

Tips and Strategies

What we are looking at as we stare at that screen
is the graphical user interface, the GUI, of Adobe Photoshop CS6.
It is our communication vehicle into this application.
We communicate with the program and tell it what to do
with tools and panels and pull-down menus.
It's our way of making this program work.
But we can design or work with other types of interfaces
than what you see. I'm currently on what's called Essentials, right up here.
Now it's a little bit different than earlier versions.
They used to have little buttons along here for all these different types of workspaces.
Now you click here, and you can see the different ones.
If I ever move out of Essentials, I'll let you know,
but most of the time I'll probably be here in Essentials.
But we have one for motion. We have one for photography and typography.
We have different ones, okay? Let's go ahead and put it back on Essentials.
As many of these as there are,
there is going to be a time when you feel like there's things up there that
you just don't need for what you want, or you need something else,
and their definition of Essentials is not yours.
So, obviously, we can rearrange the furniture.
Maybe that's a good term for this.
Let me give you a couple of tricks on how you do that.
These 3, Layers, Channels, and Paths, which to me are very important parts of Photoshop,
they are in what's called a group.
If I want to move that whole group away from this area here,
because they're all linked together, I don't grab a tab.
That would move just one. I grab, say, right about here, and I can drag over.
I think most of you probably know that.
This is now a group that's free-floating.
Which, of course, is probably exactly in the spot where I need to work.
But if we want to take it back, we can do the same thing.
We grab it up here, and we drag it over.
Now you're waiting for that little blue line to appear,
and what happens to the area you're dragging, it becomes semi-transparent
and we're back to the way we started.
If you want to move them around one at a time, you grab the tabs.
So let's go ahead and do that, too.
And again, of course, what we're really doing here is
decreasing our workspace to show you how this all works.
These are over here are collapsed.
If you click on them, they open up. We can do the same thing with these.
For example, I can pull Layers over here.
Now I'm not waiting for the line to go blue up and down.
I'm waiting for it to go blue right underneath this one,
and if I let go, I've collapsed it. I can do that to all 3.
But let's do this. Let's drag it out again.
Let's go ahead and open it by double-clicking on it.
All right, if I move it, that little box will go away.
I'm going to pull these back in by grabbing the tab name for Channels
and putting it in here, and I'm dragging it up here
until I see that area go transparent, and then I'm letting go.
So we could put them back together if that's something you wanted to do,
or you could add another panel to that.
Another way we can work these—a lot of times, I like to see
Channels and Layers both open at the same time.
So I'm going to pull Channels out of here, which makes it a freestanding panel.
I'm going to grab it up here.
I'm going to drag down until I see that blue line appear
and that panel almost goes away.
And I let go, and now they're linked together.
Let's go ahead and take that back out.
Let's go ahead and pull it back in here.
Now I've got Layers, Paths, and Channels, and I want Layers, Channels, and Paths.
So I can grab Channels and move it over
to actually put them in the order that I want.
And again, you can put as many in there as you want.
If we move this over and wait for the blue line to appear left and right,
we now have a group. Notice this little line. Let me make that a little bit bigger for you.
That little line right here and here identifies that as a group,
which means if I click on one of these,
actually all 3 come up at the same time.
So we can, in a sense, rearrange the furniture any way that you want.
If there is something you need and you don't see it over here,
because we're in Essentials, you can go to the word Window,
and all of the panels that you need that you want to get to are right here.
We could pull out one of these, Layer Comps, I suppose,
and we could take Layer Comps over here and then move it into something else.
If you don't want Layer Comps, you can click the X button right there,
and it'll collapse back out and put it back up here under Window.
One way to tell what you have currently open are the check marks.
If you see the check marks, it's telling you exactly what you have open at any space of time.
Now let's do this. Let's stay in Essentials.
Let me go ahead and collapse that.
Let's go ahead and—no, let's move this group back out again.
Let's go ahead and do something like that.
All right, I'm happy with that for whatever reason.
I got it square in the middle of my image, but I like it.
I'm going to come up here to Essentials and change into, say, Painting.
Of course, that's going to change, but if we go back
to Essentials,
it doesn't go back to the default Essentials.
It assumes you've modified temporarily Essentials,
and you want to leave it this way, but no, I don't want to,
and I don't want to manually try to put everything back.
So if I come up to the word Essentials, there is a Reset whatever one you're on,
right here, and if I click that, everything is back to the way Adobe thinks Essentials is.
You can make, you can create, you can design your own workspaces.
And in the next lesson, we'll talk about saving them.
So on to the next.
