added {noformat}{noformat} tags. Please read {message:id=9360002} to learn to do this yourself in future.You would jettison the entire LAST_WEEK subquery. Then replace your failure calculation with
current_week.failure - lag(current_week.failure) over (order by current_week.year, current_week.week) as failures_compareI suppose you might want to think about renaming the sub-query as well ....

How can I darken and clean up this logo?
I drew this image and scanned it, and as you can tell the lines are very light and not precise. This is my original image:
I'd like to digitiliaze this image and make it more professional and clean. I've tried image trace in illustator and many adjustments in photoshop. Here is my result:
Much better than what i started with but still not professional and clean enough for branding. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!+1 to the Pen Tool.
Once you have the logo as a well-drawn path, you can manipulate it easily.
When you're drawing with the pen, try to create a minimum of points, and adjust the bezier handles to get your curves to align with your artwork fairly well. Then once you've drawn the paths, you can turn the whole thing into a shape layer as described above, disable the artwork layer, then fine-tune it to look really good.
Use the Control key while adding points with the path tool to move them around to fine tune things. If you click in the wrong place, use the History to go back to redo one or more steps.
Once you have the path just as you want it, you can turn it into some pretty amazing stuff... Here's a 3D extrusion of the path, for example.
Since I quickly drew the path to illustrate the above, I might as well provide you with a copy. Click on the path with the direct selection tool to examine the points and bezier handles to get an idea of where I put them.
After you practice with the pen for a while it will become natural to you, and you'll find you can almost magically match drawn curves.
Have fun!

You can write a pipelined function, which will be about ten times the work. Its best to use the simples tools; why don't you want to use UNION ALL since its probably the best answer? -

how can i view and apply new custom patterns without going to preset manager? i had this facility but have now lost it. i design patterns but am fairly new to photoshop. i used to be able to click on the drop down menu in patterns in the 'fill' box but cannot now do this. have i inadvertently clicked on something to turn this facility off? i now have to go to 'preset manager' and manually move my new design to the first box and click 'done' so that i can use it.
Which version of photoshop are you using?
After you define a custom pattern it should be added to the bottom of whatever patterns are already loaded.
For example, if you define a custom pattern and then go to Edit>Fill>Pattern, the newly defined pattern should have been added to the existing loaded patterns. -

I have a Mac Pro OS 10.7.5 and have a DVD+R disc with files on it, but it ejects the disk after about 10 seconds--what to do? How can I get the data off this disc? I can see it has been already burned, so files are on there?
Try cleaning the lens and see if that will restore functionality to the DVD drive. Use a DVD lens cleaning disk, if you have a can of compressed air, shoot some into the slot or wrap a fine microfiber cloth (eyeglasses cleaning cloth) around a business card and insert it gently inside the slot.
If no success, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and get a free diagnosis from them.

i'm trying to use a madcatz controller on the mac but it turns on for 2 seconds and turns off. the system profiler picks it up as a xbox 360 gamepad but says its not been configured. how can i allow my self use this with my games!
I have exactly the same problem.
I'm a little peed-off with Microsoft on this. The original wireless controller I have doesn't work either since the cable I'm using is 'just' the charge and play cable, so a direct connection to my Mac won't work with this cable. It's a cable for god's sake. Why on EARTH put any limitations on this!?!?
Next I learn I need an additional USB wireless receiver from Microsoft to get my original 360 controller to talk to my Mac. As I certainly don't want to fork any more microsoft dollars on this, this is not an option.
Next I think, yes! I have a MadCatz 360 wired USB controller. This should surely do the trick just plugging it in and the way I go. But oh no, for some reason I plug my MadCatz Xbox360 controller in, it flashes a few times then switches off and can't be turned on again.
The System Profiles recognizes it as a MadCatz 360 device controller but that is about it, but the ontroller software I download for the System Prefs (360Controller, USBOverdrive etc) don't even recognize the controller as being plugged in.
What the **** Is The Microsoft Deal with all of this!?!?
PS: Oh, and I forgot to mention, there are No drivers for device 4716 that I can find on the MadCatz website, or am I going blind?
If anyone has a link, it would be appreciated.

does my macbook air have a built in virus scan? how can I access and use it? also any recommendations of what software if this is not avail ?
Contrary to what Geeks on Hugs is telling you, Mac OS X does indeed have a basic malware scanner. It is not a feature that is directly accessible to the user, and works a bit differently than every other malware scanner out there. Gatekeeper, which has been mentioned here, is entirely separate, and provides a different method for helping to protect you against malware.
The anti-malware scanner in Mac OS X is called XProtect. When you download an application (or any other kind of executable code), it is automatically "quarantined," so that when you open it you're asked if you really want to do that. I'm sure you're very familiar with this aspect of Mac OS X if you have ever downloaded any apps from outside the App Store. What you don't know, though, is that each time you try to open a new app, that app is checked by XProtect. If it is identified as malware, you will not be allowed to open it, and will be warned that it's malware.
At this time, there is no known malware that can infect a properly up-to-date Mac. All current malware will be blocked by one or more methods.
For more information, see my Mac Malware Guide.

Hi There! I have a question on Kernel Task-Threat. How can I clean my computer? This is the message that persists when cleaning disc--Warning: SUID file “System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent” has been modified and will not be repaired.
That's a routine message and it means nothing. Don't waste your time repairing permissions unless you know you have a problem that can be solved that way, which you probably never will.
