I compared with Genuine Fractals and Photoshop's Bicubic Smoother/Sharper and this guy's method does seem to have the edge (no pun intended).
Hoping it's for real.

Allen, >Y'all are lame, just run the CSI filter... Funny you should mention that...pick up a copy of the June 2008 Scientific American and turn to pp 66-71, "Digital Image Forensics" for some CSI insight. The article description: >"Modern software has made manipulation of photographs easier to carry out and harder to uncover than ever before, but the technology also enables new methods of detecting doctored images." It includes fraudulent photographs, visually exposing fakes, algorithms spotting cloning, etc. And if that doesn't interest you, you can skip to the mystery of the Tanguska (cosmic explosion 100 years ago above the Siberian forest). <g> Neil

All you can do is get a newer model iPod. The 2G can only go as high as 4.2.1. Its hardare does not support a higher iOS version

What do you think about the new and improved SiriusDecisions Waterfall?

SiriusDecisions launched their new and improved Demand Waterfall this week at their Summit in Scottsdale, Arizona. For those of you who haven't seen it yet, I have attached the PDF for your viewing pleasure. What do you think? What's strong? What's weak? Do you agree with Tony Jaros that teleprospecting is a required step in the Marketing Qualification process?

It makes a lot of sense from our perspective. Our sales organization has always generated the bulk of our leads, so it makes sense to account for them and to build programs to support them. It was a great conference - my first SiriusDecisions Summit. I came away both energized and overwhelmed.
Our Inside Sales team qualifies almost all inquiries via telephone, so it makes sense to me that "teleprospecting" is a required step. The only exceptions are sales-generated leads, so the waterfall reflects that perfectly.
What I like most about the new waterfall is that it creates a clear structure for us to focus more on developing lead nurturing and pipeline acceleration programs specifically for teleprospecting- and sales-generated leads. I'll admit that we've neglected this (simply including those contacts in our marketing-generated lead nurtures). Furthermore, it reinforces the need to tailor nurtures to the buyer's stage in the buying process. We tend to move all of our contacts through the same campaign and nurture activities as if they're progressing together, which obviously isn't the case.
I'd be interested in learning how other Eloqua users are getting data back from their CRM on a contact who has turned into a qualified lead. How do you find this information out? Do you then put them through an individual nurture that is focused on accelerating the deal?

How about the random pausing when streaming a movie from itunes that was converted from a DVD? I know myself, and, a few others from what i can see are experiencing this same issue. Anyone else?

I recently upgraded my old powerbook to an iMac. I've dumped the files of my backup drive into the new iMac. Is there a way to have access to all the files (new and old computers) when logged on as the same user vs. logging in and out to access each?

I am new to posting to this support community but have often referred to it for answers. So thank you all who've contributed; you've been a great help!

Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac. You should be able to set a password for it. Save it. Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer, I suppose, back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity. As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
This handy article from Apple explains how
How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine and go for it. You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups of your stuff.

Since 8.0 update on my ipad, I can't find autocomplete settings, which used to work for all apps. So much for new and improved.

New and improved panels (display) for the Tx20 and Wx20 series or just the X220 series?

Lenovo surly impressed us with the specifications with their new Lenovo ThinkPad X220-series notebook, not only does it feature great performance and battery life but suddenly they've gone away from the rather sluggish TN-panels they've been using for the past few years and given us a high-quality IPS option for those whom care about display quality.
Now the million dollar question is whether they'll do something about the display panel quality on their other ThinkPad line-ups or is just something happening on the X220 series? Personally the ThinkPad T420s is more appealing than the ThinkPad X220 simply because of the size being somewhat too small for my use, id like to opt for the T420s instead because that assures me more space for my hands to rest, a not too small screen along with a few other things.
I wasn't really planning on going ThinkPad this year because the display quality of my ThinkPad T400s and ThinkPad W510 has been a complete joke. Whereas the 1920x1080 panel on the W510 is doing okay it's still a rather low-contrast panel without barley anything impressive about it and when it comes to the display quality of the T400s it's downright disappointing with it's low-contrast, limited viewing angle screen.
So when I had finally decided to look elsewhere Lenovo drops the X220 with good hardware, battery life and most importantly a IPS panel option I was happily surprised and considering I love everything about the ThinkPad series besides the sluggish speakers and display quality I'm ready too pick up yet another ThinkPad series notebook if Lenovo finally offers some improved quality on their display offerings.
But would it be too much to hope for seeing improvements in regards of the display on the T and W series as well or do you think this is a X220 series only thing? And I guess we wont see anything higher resolution than 1366x768 which even though it's IPS quality is somewhat low resolution when I'm used to 1920x1080 on my W510 for instance.

I figured IPS is not going to happen this year, but as the new T420 and T420s is 16:9 compared to last years T410 and T410s and the T400 and T400s before that 16:10 screens there must be some new panels coming this time around?
Lets just hope it's not the same low contrast TN-panels like before as there is no doubt that you can get TN-panels that are way better than what Lenovo has been using for the past years.

Missing / deleted history - 'New and improved' releases add new features, improved (?) function, but eliminate some options and browsing history...

This has been a problem ever since updating from Firefox 8 to FF 10. I noticed that there was about a month missing from my history after that update. Checking my settings in 'about:config', there was no change in 'browser.history_expire_days_min' or 'browser.history_expire_days.mirror'. The value has been set at '720' ever since installing FF 3.6 over three years ago.
Admittedly, I don't install new updates the moment they become available... However, every time that I've installed an update, more and more of my history simply vanishes. Not a few days or weeks, mind you. but 3, 6, and even 9 months of history GONE!
I just don't understand why this option was eliminated from Privacy Preferences, forcing users to tinker with the settings in 'about:config' instead. Since users are given a warning before going on to the settings page, why would any programmer think this is a good alternative to the Preferences pane???
Now I'm down to history for February and March of this year... You can bet that I'm not going to be updating to any new releases for a very long time, if ever.
It seems that 'software bloat' isn't a 'Microsoft-only' disease...
New 'features' + 'improved' perfomance = New demands for disk space + improved glitches...
Frankly, I'm getting sick of this...

Not sure if it is relevant but the structure of the places.sqlite database changed recently, and jumping all the way from fx3.6 to fx18 or 19 could conceivably have been a factor. It is best to keep Firefox up-to-date.
Glad at least that you keep backups.
History backups are slightly problematic, because if the places.sqlite database is backed up and restored to an old copy the bookmarks then regress. As you will be aware already, Firefox itself makes no History backups, and has no facility to restore History only.

In Reports what is the difference between the AT NEW and ON CHANGE Event

Hi,
Could you tell the differences of AT NEW and ON CHANGE events in Repors

Hi raghava,
The Major Difference is :
a) When AT NEW occurs,
the alpha-numeric fields have ******* in their value,
b) where as in case of ON CHANGE,
the alpha-numeric fields have their corresponding value,
of that particular record,
where the Event gets fired.
Other differences are :
ON CHANGE OF can be used any where in the program..
on change of differs from at new in the following respects:
1.It can be used in any loop construct, not just loop at. For example, it can be used within select and endselect, do and enddo, or while and endwhile, as well as inside get events.
2.A single on change of can be triggered by a change within one or more fields named after of and separated by or. These fields can be elementary fields or field strings. If you are within a loop, these fields do not have to belong to the loop.
3.When used within a loop, a change in a field to the left of the control level does not trigger a control break.
4.When used within a loop, fields to the right still contain their original values; they are not changed to contain zeros or asterisks.
5.You can use else between on change of and endon.
6.You can use it with loop at it where . . ..
7.You can use sum with on change of. It sums all numeric fields except the one(s) named after of.
8.Any values changed within on change of remain changed after endon. The contents of the header line are not restored as they are for at and endat.
while
AT NEW can be used only within a loop of an INTERNAL TABLE..
5. Sample program to get the taste of it
(just copy paste)
6.
REPORT ABC.
DATA : BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 0,
bukrs like t001-bukrs,
f1(10) type c,
end of itab.
itab-bukrs = '1000'.

append itab.
itab-bukrs = '1100'.
itab-f1 = '3333333'.
append itab.
itab-bukrs = '1200'.
itab-f1 = '555555'.
append itab.
AT NEW
loop at itab.
at new bukrs.
write :/ itab-bukrs , itab-f1.
endat.
endloop.
AT ONCHANGE

ON CHANGE OF ITAB-BUKRS.

New and Improved SQL Developer Exchange

From the exchange, we have implemented over 400 requests from users. The exchange is have a bit of a facelift and if anyone would like to test out the new Exchange go here https://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=43135:1 . Let me know what you think. This is the same tables and data just much needed UI re-work.
thanks
-kris

- the requests need Created and Updated columns
These are there you just have to choose to show them. Under the Actions button, there is a "Select Columns" option.Nice work, it does work :)
- grids would be nice (alternating colours optional)
Done.Can you do the same in the "Rating/ Comments section" as it's not present.
- in the voting section, user names are missing, together with the ability to edit your given score. Score 10 is missing.
This is intentional. It's now using Oracle's SSO which would show everyone's email address.to my knowledge the forum is using the SSO where my name is displayed instead of email address. I don't like to have my email address displayed (spam reasons).
In addition to this i saw that:
1) if i have voted already, the application shows me the "Rate this feature" button which means i can still vote, but when i apply i get unique constraint violated.
In the current version if i have already voted, i don't have the option to vote again.
2) if i'm already logged on the forum and then go directly to the Exchange to vote, i'm redirected to the SSO to enter my login details.
I was expected not to be asked again for my login details.

Verizon won't honor my contract...I'm going to the local news and the FCC

On Friday I called Verizon because our 2 yr contract was expiring and, frankly, I didn't want to renew. I just wanted to know what my options were as far as disconnecting our FIOS services. I have had two years of nothing but troubles with Verizon and wanted to be rid of them. However, I ended up speaking of {edited for privacy} from the Rentention Department, who offered me a very good deal to stay. And, I have a confirmation number for that contract. Within two hours after I got off the phone with her, we lost our phone service as, even though she verified with me that we were keeping our copper phone, the system switched us to a FIOS phone. This is Tuesday night. I can make phone calls out, but incoming callers are now told our phone service has been disconnected. I called tonight and spoke with "Mike" who told me that Verizon would not honor the contract that Maureen gave me. To say the least, I am infuriated. I have already contacted a friend of mine who is a reporter for our local news channel, and will be contacting the FCC tomorrow regarding possible legal implications.

BethH,
We are glad that you now have your services back. We value you as a customer and will work to get the contract that you were promised or a comparible contract. Please feel free to contact us if you need any further assistance.
Thanks,
Tonya D.

Is there any way to email photos without having to use the themes? I just want to send them from my email the way you used to be able to without all this "new and improved" nonsense.

In the old iPhoto, if I wanted to email pictures, I would select the ones I wanted, have them sent as "smaller" to make them easier to process, and iPhoto would open my mail and I could type the names and I wanted and off they'd go. And, I'd have a copy saved in my "sent" folder.
Now, you have to deal with these ridiculous themes and in order to get a copy of your sent, you have to blind cc yourself. This is definitely not an improvement in my mind.
So I ask, is there any way around this or am I stuck? I really like iPhoto, but this is enough to send my back to Picasa.

Never mind gang. I started seaching through some other support questions, and actually stumbled across the solution to my problem.
Thanks to "John".

HT4528 I have an Iphone 4s and downloaded the "NEW and IMPROVED" I/OS 6 - Don't do it! Now my bluetooth connection to my radio is not working. I connects but will not advance songs using the Radio Controls.

Hello, My Controls on my new Pansonic Car radion stopped working after downloading os/6. It is a Bluetooh connection works and the music plays - but the song advance control on the radion no longer works. How can I get back my old os5?

When you turn iMessage off and then back on again, is it completely activating? If not, then turn off iMessage, wait a few minutes, then turn it back on. If it activates, it pulls your phone number from your SIM and account. If it activates, you go into those same settings and set the Send & Receive.
