What's up with these unwanted, unsolicited calls?

Beginning yesterday morning, I've gotten four calls from area codes within California.  I do not recognize the numbers, and I have no contacts in these areas.

All my phone numbers have been on the DNC registry since 2007; I have current confirmations.
It is apparent to me that Verizon has no interest in dealing with this problem; I am still NOT convinced that my personal information was not leaked or otherwise compromised by Verizon.  Your assurance that you do not release personal information to third parties is of little comfort to me; Verizon, like any other organization, has in its employ dishonest and/or incompetent people.

  • What's Wrong with These Rules?

    I can't see what's wrong with these rules. Does any one see the problem?
    Passport data is verified if
    Database provides an exact match for the passport number and date of birth.
    Photo matching is required if
    Passport data is verified.
    Passport photo matches evidentiary photo if
    Photo matching is required and
    Photo match is valid.
    Photo match is valid if
    Photo matching is required and
    user states that photo matches evidentiary photo.
    The investigation session asks the question "does Database provide an exact match ..." Response is True.
    "Photo matching is request" is set to true because "Passport data is verified" is true.
    Then the investigation stops. It doesn't go on and ask if "user states that photo ...". This arrtibute has the value of <unknown>. All the identifiers (red numbers) match up correctly. I just can't see what is wrong.
    Thanks,
    Terry

    Thanks, Brandon,
    Your idea was helpful. It was a goal, but not a top level goal. By checking the data at each step, I found that a higher level rule that was dependent on these rules was the culprit. I should have had an "and" when I had wrote the rule with an "or". I don't entirely understand why this higher level rule needed to have "and" instead of "or", but it works now and that's all I care about.

  • Getting mad at all these unwanted telemarketer calls! Do something Verizon!

    I've been getting alot of unwanted telemarketer calls the last few months. It always seems to be from the same people but they use different numbers. It's a recorded message that says they have important personal information. I wish Verizon would do something to stop these **bleep**!  It doesn't do much adding the numbers to the don't call list since they always call from a different #. Here are a couple of the phone numbers they've called from.

    What makes you think its telemarketers?  The script that you reported usually is a bill collector not a telemarketer..  Have you tried doing a reverse lookup of the number?

    Why are you quick to blame the carrier and also what is changing carriers suppose to do because your phone number is stored in public data base if you are open to pay for info?
    I cant get so many blaming carrier but when they get these same calls at home on a land line they dont blame the phone company...  This world is about passing blame...  I dont get it.

  • What's wrong with these code?

    Hi, i made the below snippet of code for retriving data from a table in database. but it doesnt work property when i run the program. Could anyone tell me what's wrong with it? Thanx in advance.
    //rs is object of type ResultSet
    //url is one of the column names in a table
    <% if(rs.getString("url")!= null){%>
       <tr>
          <td>URL </td>
          <td>= { <%= rs.getString("url") %> },</td>   
      </tr>
    <%}%>

    Without seeing the error message, one can only guess. Some JDBC drivers do not allow you to get a column more than once, so that may be your problem. Store the result of rs.getString("url") in a String variable in the first line, and use that variable in the table cell.

  • What's Up with these random playback pauses on iTunes that never get fixed?

    I was using OS X Lion, and it started there, now I've upgraded my MacBook Pro early 2011 (already upgraded to 16GB OWC RAM) to OS X Mountain Lion, the problem persists, and it gets worse, I don't know which music I can play that will not pause every 5 seconds.
    The worse part is, googling for `itunes pausing randomly' you see people complaning since 2008!!!
    Like here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1675131

    What's Up with iTunes developers??
    I'm considering to abandon the native OS X music player.

    CleanMyMac is an unnecessary tool.
    It does not do anything for you more than OSX already does itself, and it slows down the mac a bit, can cause problems (although not having heard often.
    Please download Etrecheck  ( http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck ),  run it and paste the result here. maybe we can find the cause of the issue when it is not SoundFlower.
    That the problems were not there in the beginning of the "7 years" does not say anything: you are useing a totally different OS now (64bit and....).

  • What's up with these things in CS5?

    Since upgrading to Photoshop CS5, I'm coming across a number of things that don't work like they worked.....I'll even go as far as to say "as well as they worked," in previous versions, and I'm wondering if these are bugs, functionality changes, errors, or something else that I'm somehow missing....like a preference that I could turn on or off. I'll list them below. Any feedback from Adobe or otherwise greatly appreciated.
    1. When using the type tool, it used to show up with a box around it, then when it was hovering over existing text, the box would go away, and it would just be the type tool up and down line with its little serif things...that way I could tell when I was going to click into an existing type layer or whether clicking was going to generate a new layer. Now however, the bounding box never appears, so I don't know if I'm going to be clicking to select an existing layer or create a new layer? Bug or by design?
    2. When I have a vector layer selected, and that vector path preview thing is showing around the object to show me that my vector object is indeed selected, then I select one of the layer effects on that layer to edit, I used to be able to hit Apple+H to hide the vector path outline thing while the layer effects window was open....now when I hit Apple+H, the "View" menu icon flashes but nothing happens. Bug?
    3. This is a really weird specific one that I will be amazed if I am not the only weirdo encountering....in other words, I'll be amazed if someone else has come across this same thing. I like to create layer actions for all kinds of things. One of the things is creating a layer action to duplicate the current layer. In previous versions of Photoshop, I could click a little box next to the "Duplicate Current Layer" command in the actions panel, and that would force a little dialogue to come up whenever that action got triggered....the dialogue being the layer name dialogue....before the action would complete. This was handy because when I called up that action, it would duplicate the current layer while providing me with a handy dialogue at the same time to name that new layer. This is no longer an option in CS5 because that little dialogue no longer shows up next to the "Duplicate Current Layer" command. WTF!?
    4. I'm sure this is a by design feature, and maybe I'm the only one that finds this incredibly annoying... I used to be able to be working in full screen mode, then open another file, and have that new file not open in full screen mode. This was handy if say I was working in full screen mode, and opened another file because there was something in that file that I wanted to drag into the file I was already working in.. Nope! Now if I'm working in full screen mode, everything else that I open then opens in full screen mode... Do I just have a bassackwards way of working, or does this throw anyone else off as well? Maybe I'm just weird, but I really enjoyed being able to work with a bunch of documents in different screen modes... Could this one be a preference that I can turn off somewhere?
    5. Again, this may be something where I'm the only person in the world that used this feature. If I had say the direct-selection arrow tool selected, and I wanted to select a different layer, I used to be able to do this handy shortcut/combination of keys to select that new layer...I would hold down Control Option Command, and click, and the layer I clicked on would be auto-selected. Brilliant! Now, doing that key combination and clicking brings up a weird color-picker thing that I don't understand, and that I probably have to read some documentation to figure out what it even is. This one seems to be by design, but annoying when a keyboard shortcut that is practically stored as a grove in my brain now does something else. I literally need to change the physical form of my brain before I will stop trying to make that shorcut work! It just doesn't work. As many times as I might try it and hope that the Photoshop Elves have changed it back to what it used to do, it's fate seems to be sealed in a new direction... Unless...?
    These things frustrate me every time I use Photoshop, and I really hate to be frustrated by Photoshop!!! I wish we could just be friends like we used to when a new release was amazing, like "Wow, this new version of Photoshop has LAYERS! Amazing!" or, "Wow, Photoshop now has a thing called History! Incredible!" Those were the days! Now I sometimes feel like things just change from one release to the next...like Photoshop hit a peak at a certain point, and...I know it sounds harsh...but now they just keep finding reasons to create new versions that are no longer about creating a better application, but more about making money. Can't we all just go back to CS4!!?? Ah OK, I'll stop ranting...
    Save me...show me the light! Enlighten me! What has my life come to? Surely there's better things to worry about!
    Elliott

    ad 3) Try recording command-alt-J instead of command-J, that should provide the »Toggle dialog on/off«-field in the Actions Panel.
    ad 4) I think that has been changed since CS4 at least.
    I also preferred the old behaviour, but I doubt it will be re-introduced anytime soon.
    ad 5) I seldom use those combinations, but with the Direct Selection Tool doesn’t command-clicking suffice?

  • Hey Apple, what's wrong with these Li ion batteries and PMU?

    One of the reasons why we buy laptop is to use it for travel and work. I am not really happy with the fact that i had to reset the PMU twice in a month, and then have to recalibrate the battery again.
    What is this new Apple paradigm? we buy a laptop for roughly $2500 and it has to be calibrated and reset every month? When is apple going to provide a good answer to this problem?
    I don't buy a MacBook pro because i like playing with the hardware and software, and reading these Apple Discussions, i buy it because i need a working tool, that can work on battery for more than 4 hours for at least 2 years. If it is not the case, then Apple should take steps to replace the deficient part(s) (and please, don't crash my hard drive as it is quite valuable to me!-).
    I like apple products and i have quite a few at home and at work, but it needs to meet users' requirements!
    Thank you!
    MacBook pro 2.33Ghz Intel Core Duo Mac OS X (10.4.9)

    I have to concur with this statement. Having used Mac's for years I'm totally dissappointed with my MBP's reliability. I placed the order during the Job's keynote at Macworld SF last year and waited for weeks for it to arrive.
    I'm now on my third battery and have all sorts of start-up issues. Since the last update 10.4.9 my screen periodically goes dark (from bottom to top, like it's filling up with water) and a message telling me to restart -- I've never seen this on any Mac.
    My display will suddenly lose sync and go all fuzzy (not my second monitor, just the laptop display) for no reason. And, just to add insult to injury, some of the paint underneath my spacebar has started to peel off.
    Not happy with this machine at all and wish I'd stayed on my G4

  • What is it with these Apple Curser Ads?

    These advertisements just started popping up this morning, 4/18/10 on my computer. They are tied to the curser someway. They block what I am trying to read and I find them very irritating!!
    Anyone know how to turn them OFF???
    Jack Perry

    It looks like an Apple implanted program/virus of some sort or I wonder if they were running some sort of test on some computers.
    That's a bit of a tinfoil-hat idea. Whatever you're seeing, it's not something that Apple is doing to spam you with ads... that sort of thing is counter-productive, as anyone intelligent knows, and Apple management is certainly not stupid. Not to mention that it's absolutely, completely opposite to every user-interface philosophy Apple has ever expressed.
    Whatever's going on, we're going to need more information to help. We need screenshots and we need more information about the context in which you are seeing these things. In particular, you may want to pay attention to what page is loaded in Safari when you see these things... I know you said you aren't using a web browser at the time, but it's possible something has gone wrong and your machine is showing tool tips inappropriately.
    Tool tips are little yellow boxes, like what you describe. They are meant to be used for help text. One common use is a title attached to a button or link on a web site. For example, when writing a message on these forums, hover the mouse over the text formatting buttons above the main message text field. Are those something like what you are seeing?

  • What is it with these distros?

    Okay, SLAX is very nice, but I absolutely refuse to run my desktop as root! At least turn off the root account and have an admin account with sudo priveleges ala Ubuntu, or something...
    (Also, I must remember to tell the SLAX devs that no vi makes sudo annoying to change the settings on.)
    Edit: right, CUPS would be a problem wouldn't it. Anyone know how Ubuntu handles CUPS administration with the root account disabled?

    Yes it is.
    Dusty wrote:
    you're too quick to judge and assume anything that happens to you is the only way it can happen.
    For the record, Kubuntu permits cups administration using sudo somehow. It always asks a user with admin privleges for that user's password, not a root password. Kubuntu, BTW, uses KDE.
    It reflects poorly on yourself and on this community when you make sweeping statements without checking the facts. It is never safe to assume that the way things run for you is the way they are for all users, or that your partial knowledge encompasses all that can be known.
    Dusty
    What sweeping statements? Look, sorry if you read any sarcasm into what I said earlier, that's not the way I meant it...
    Have you been hacked using this setup yet?
    No but I haven't been running things from the root account.

  • What is up with these import fees on used items?

     I was very interested in some bose speakers and the price $375
      $52.93 International Priority Shipping to Canada (reasonable)
    Import charges:$51.02 (unreasonable)
    Total=478.95
    As long as ebay is putting the shaft up Canadians you know whats I will no longer be buying from anyone who uses  the
    Global Delivery Program , I will find my items elsewhere and won't even mind paying a little extra just to avoid buying from E-bay.So much for my money going to help the American economy,seems typical though of big business.
     

    Canada charges sales taxes on used items just like on new items.You pay GST on a used car for example.Duty and tax is charged on any purchased import over $20. (Gifts are charged if valued over $60). Canada Post has a minmum $10 service fee for negotiating the borderUPS and other couriers charge $20-25 minimumThe Global Shipping Program (Pitney Bowes) charges $4.95 minimum It is not worthwhile for a buyer to purchase if the item is under $100 value and the seller uses the Global Shipping Program or a courier. These items should always go by USPS/Canada Post BUTOne reason for the saving is that Canada Post is quite lax about charging the fees they are allowed to charge and those they are supposed to collect. Which does wonders for the national debt.

  • I got this from Amazon, what's wrong with these pics?

    Great share!  I hate to see this type of thing happen, but glad to see you got it resolved. 
    For everyone's knowledge... if you feel that you purchased sketch software, you can definitely call the Microsoft anti-piracy hotline at (800) RU-LEGIT, e-mail Microsoft at [email protected] or contact the Business Software Alliance (BSA) anti-piracy hotline at (888) NO-PIRACY to report them like the above post.

    I needed another copy of Office 2010 for a new user here. I needed2010 since 2013 isn’t compatible with our PM/EMR systems. I went to Amazon anddid a search for Office 2010. In the list that came up there was a new copy forsale. I ordered this and it came in 2 days later. I already had copies of Office 2010 on our systems so I loadedit off a share and just needed the key. I went to put the new key in and it wouldn’ttake it. Tried it again just to make sure I didn’t fumble the key, still tellingme not a valid key. This got me thinking, OK why isn’t it taking the key. Iwent to one of my coworkers and asked them to read the key off so I can makesure my old eyes were not failing me. Same digits I just tried. He put the disk in his PC and it took a fewminutes to come up to the install screen asking for the key. He inputted thekey and it...

  • For our ELVIS II units, I receive error message -200220. What is wrong with these units when they worked a month ago?

    On several computer stations, we receive the error message -200220 when selecting any instrument on the Instrument Launcher when the Run option is pressed. This message has not been cleared after the computer was rebooted and the Box power cycled. What is wrong?
    I can not find this error code in the product documentation.

    From the screenshot you attached, it looks like there is no device specified on the front panel, which means that the error you see is correct, the device identifier is invalid.  Are there any available devices populated in the Device control?  Does your ELVIS II show up as connected in Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX)?

  • What is wrong with these apps?

    I have a 55" 2014 Bravia and since day one there were some apps on it that I hadn't tried. The other day I tried the Accuweather and NPR apps and NEITHER ONE WORKED!! I believe some of the others don't work either. I mostly use Netflix, Amazon so I hadn't noticed this before. I would think that the weather and NPR would be free apps. Do they require a subscription? They don't even ask for your name or anything. I click on it and they just sit there doing nothing until I give up.

    Nevermind. I found it in the menus. Didn't help. Neither Accuweather nor NPR worked and neither does Pandora and Pandora did work last year and it works fine on my computer.
