Which is the best Oracle certification for a programmer

Hi,
I have been doing web development in java for about 2 years now. I already have a Bachelors of Science in Computer Science but I want to stay competitive and am considering an Oracle Certification. The problem is that I am having trouble deciding which one to pursue. I am trying to keep emerging technologies in mind and I know that cloud computing and mobile devices are taking over. But I still know that there are many other companies out there that aren't ready for all that. I have found certifications such as:
Oracle Certified Professional Java Programmer
Oracle Certified Professional, Java EE 5 Web Component Developer
Oracle Certified Professional, Java EE 5 Business Component Developer
Oracle Certified Professional, Java EE 5 Web Services Developer
Oracle Certified Master, Java EE 5 Enterprise Architect
Oracle Certified Expert,Java Platform, Enterprise Edition 6 JavaServer Pages and
Servlet Developer
Personally, I think that "Oracle Certified Master, Java EE 5 Enterprise Architect" looks the most attractive because it seems to wrap everything into one. But the prep time and costs for this are both pretty high. Does anyone have any good information or experience that can help me make a better decision?
Thanks a bunch!

But I also doubt whether the question raised was clear enough for the person to be answered! - just my two cents ....Even if my question was not clear enough (which it was), i would expect someone applying for a senior position such as technical architect position to ask clarifying questions. My point from the beginning was, you absolutely are not qualified to become a technical architect with just a certification. Here is how the interview went
Me - How do you find out what your browser is submitting to the server from a purely client perspective?
Candidate - I will put the receiving server in debug mode and print out values.
Me - What if you don't have access to that server?
Candidate - Well, its my server.
Me - Okaay, you open your browser and go to CNN.com and click on a link, how do you find out details about that request?
Candidate - You can't.
Me - So you are saying you can't inspect what your browser is sending in http requests?
Candidate - yeah....i guess.
Me - Have you heard of tools such as wireshark, firebug, httpfox, http analyzer, tcpmon etc
Candidate - No, never heard of it.
I ended the interview after that.Hmm. Probably this guy didn't know what he was talking about, but still I wouldn't necessarily demand from someone applying for an architect position to know the gritty details of development; that's too low level for someone who should be focusing on the big picture. I'd rather have someone that knows how to design and guide people to build maintainable systems in stead of someone that knows how to sniff packets.
But then again you'd have to define what the architect role in this case exactly means. For all I know it is actually a senior developer position with a slightly better ring to the title ;)

Which is the best WLAN card for my lenovo x200 notebook?

Hello!
I hope somebody could help for me. I bought a new Lenovo X200 notebook but it hasn't got WLAN card. So I have to buy a mini PCI-E WLAN card. In my notebook there is a webcam so I find only 2 wlan cable (1 black and 1 grey). The question is: witch is the best WLAN card for me?
Intel 5100
Intel 5300
or
ThinkPad 11a/b/g Wireless LAN Mini-PCI Express Adapter
Please help me.
I can use intel 5300 (it has 3 connection port) if I have only 2 cable?

On the Lenovo X200 support page you will find the X200 Hardware Maintenance Manual which lists all the parts in the X200.
You will find there that the 43Y6493 is Lenovo's Intel 5100.
I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!

When importing a CD to iTunes which will then be downloaded onto a ipod, which is the best setting format for sound quality?Im unsure if once i save setting for CD import, do i then have to change settings to sync with my ipod?

When importing a CD to iTunes which will then be downloaded onto a ipod, which is the best setting for audio quality? Also once CD is downloaded do i need to change the setting to sync with my ipod?

I'm not sure what settings you are referring to. If you mean the import CD settings, there would be no point in changing them after importing the CD, would there?
As for the best setting for audio quality, it's down to your preference. Many people will not hear the difference bewteen one setting and another. The best thing to do is import the same song several times using different import setttings (and change the song title so you know which one is which) and then listen to them on your iPod. Then decide.
Unless you have specific reasons for using the WAV setting, don't use it. It will use up a lot of space on your iPod and you cannot tag WAV files in the same way as the other formats.

I have to create a presentation about waste water management. The students needs to see how the water flows in the system. Which is the best Adobe program for this task?

I need to show dirty water, the treatment, and the clean water after treatment. It is necessary to see how the water flows in the tubes.
Which is the best Adobe program fr this job?

After Effects, but be ready for a steep learning curve. Third party plug-ins may be required if you want realistic flow. Schematic diagrams are fairly easy to create with After Effects. I do it all the time.

Hi Greg,
Best protection is a really secure WPA2 Passwoird to join your Router... WEP or Open is worthless, WPA can be broken, but WPA 2 is still likely not to be broken fo awhile.

Which is the Best wireless card for the MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard?

I have the Option GT Ultra Express on AT&T, but ever since I upgraded to snow leopard every update has been messing it up and I'm more than done with this card, Ill even switch carriers if I have to, what cards are the best to use? and who has been having the best performance with theirs?
I guess I should also add that I'm in New York, reception would be an issue too, I get between 2 and 3 bars at my desk and would like to stay with that.
Message was edited by: NeoMental

I'm sorry, but isn't the Option GT Ultra Express an ExpressCard you plug in to the left side port on your MBP to gain wireless access when your AirPort card doesn't work in a given location?
if so, the only difference between that and the dongle that I described is that the dongle uses the USB instead of ExpressCard format.
I'm sorry if I misunderstood.
It would also help if you could describe the exact nature of the problem. There are topics here that address Option brand drivers issues with links to updated drivers that are supposed to work with SL.
Without more info, I'm afraid I can't suggest much else.
Cheers, mate.

Which is the best SAP module for a "Business Lead" in healthcare-IT Industry with no IT-specific skills?

My Qualification is M.Pharmacy. I have basic computer skills with 7 years of experience and adequate domain knowledge in medical/ pharma verticals and my job role is majorly in the Business Development Department.
I found that the modules like SD (Sales & Distribution) and may be ABAP, Business Objects are relevant. But, it seems like ABAP/BO are not suitable for my profile (No IT/programming skills).
My questions are:
1] Is choosing a SAP career at this point is gainful?
2] If I decide to go for SAP, which modules do you suggest.
Thanks in advance!

Mpeg Streamclip: Which is the best conversion format for (SD) Mpeg 2 footag

I picked up a Canon FS11 (Very very tiny). With that comes some drawbacks, but overall a nice little camera that I can fit it my cargo or baggy pockets easily.
Anyways, I am able to convert the Standad definition Mpeg 2 footage with Mpeg Streamclip and use Final Cut Studio just fine so far.
My question is: It gives you options as to what format to convert the clips to (DV or Quicktime movie, as well as many other options. I just used NTSC DV, but was wondering if using a different format for conversion would be better or is this my best option.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Michael,
That is very helpful.
I have two other question for you. Streamclip asks if I want to fix time code breaks. I checked it for yes. But, do I want to fix them? And if so it gives you the option to not skip any frames. Do I want to do that as well?
Also somebody mentioned to me that I could use the Quicktime ProRes option on Streamclip. Would that give me higher quality by going that route or would it be overkill for my SD footage from this tiny camera?
Thanks in advance for all of your thoughts.

Which is the best stereo bluetooth for iPhone 4 on the lines of Sony Ericsson MW600?

Can anyone who has had 1st hand experience with stereo bluetooth that they have used.. come forward with their reviews on them..? I had a Sony Ericsson MW600 which i have now misplaced... overall they do their job pretty well.. you can use the play, forward and rewind buttons.. and yes of course pick up calls to.. it has multipoint allowing you to connect upto 3 devices at once, although you cannot use all the devices at once, you need to change your device from the bluetooth inbult led menu which can get frustrating at times... but its an option nonetheless.. Also it has radio, which your iPhone does not have.. not that i use it anyways but an added feature for radio enthusiast.. They have a great battery Life too and also you can put in your own in ear headphones which i really apprecaite.. The only downside of these bluetooth are that.. they are not as loud as i would like them to be... but opinions can differ in that area... So thats my reveiw on the Sony Ericsson MW 600.. Now can anyone suggest me something similar to buy? preferebally a bluetooth which can support other in ear headphones and are nice and loud..

There isn't any - iPhone simply don't work proberly with a bluetooth headset.

Which is the best video converter for Final Cut Pro 7?

Hi, I am using Fincal Cut Pro 7.0.3 and I am looking to find the most compatible, most efficient video converter to work with my FCP 7, I need import vidoe file formats such as AVI, MPEG, MTS to edtiting in FCP 7, and I am having hard time to converting them, even I managed to convert them and imported them into FCP they need rendering again and again in FCP and that wasted me tons to precisous time.
Any suggestions? Thank you so very much!
Kevin

Compressor. Second, I would choose Episode. But then MPEG Streamclip is very usefull when convert from many of the MPEG formats. Keep in mind that formats such as those you listed are merely wrappers; the codec contained within could be one of dozens of codec, some of which may not convert well.

[Reports]   The best reporting tool for JDeveloper 10g

Hi,
Which is the best reporting tool for JDeveloper 10g: JasperReports, Crystal Reports or something else? I want to build parametric and rather complex reports but I don't know which tool offers more features, flexibility, ease of use , ... . I've built some simple parametric reports using JasperReports and JDeveloper 10g but I think it's not so productive and may need something more, maybe iReport. Does anyone have any ideas?
S/\EE|)

Hi Saeed,
I'lm using Jasper too, and here is an example of how i pass to it some variables:
     <parameter name="theWantedId" isForPrompting="false" class="java.lang.Integer"/>
     <queryString><![CDATA[SELECT field1, field2 from table1 WHERE table1.field1 = $P!{theWantedId}]]></queryString>And in a bean (or other java code from which the template is called)
        Map parameters= new HashMap();
        parameters.put("theWantedId", findSelectedId()); // return the ID of the object to print
        JasperDesign design =
            JRXmlLoader.load(myTemplate); // First load template from the Blob table in an inputstream
        JasperReport report =
            JasperCompileManager.compileReport(design);
        InitialContext initialContext = new InitialContext();
        DataSource ds = (DataSource)initialContext.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/MYDATASOURCEConnectionDS");
        Connection conn = ds.getConnection();
        JasperPrint print =
            JasperFillManager.fillReport(report, parameters, conn);Hope that can help, if you need more information please ask,
Best regards,

Which register cleaner or tune up software is the best to use for windows vista,windows 7 and windows 8.1 as professional?

hi,
I like to know wich register cleaner or tune up software is the best to use for windows vista- windows7- and windows 8.1.
I like to know the proffesional version of it which I can use for my clients every where unlimitted to clean unwanted keys of registry and improve performance.(specialy in Dutch language).

I second what Kate Li said. There's no need for a registry cleaner! Don't do it! I run Windows systems for years and they keep running as light and fast as when they're new.
What I *do* recommend is regularly reviewing the list of programs set to run in the background using a tool to show you what starts in various ways called Autoruns, which can be found here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx
This tool can be used to disable things you don't need.

Which is the best antivirus and spyware for Mac?

Good morning,
Because of schoolwork and extracurricular activities, I am constantly sending and receiving e-mails and messages to and from PCs and other Apple devices, like IPads. Two years ago I purchased a 120,12GB MacBook Air and, until a few months ago, it went perfectly well.
I am not sure what happened, but lately, every time I go online, whatever I click -whether it is a random letter in a website, or a blank space in a page, anything- an advert appears or a new -unwanted- tab opens with publicity and such, the kind of additional tabs that open when you are watching movies online in a random website, but this time, it is happening with every website (even the Apple site) and almost constantly. I suspect it is something I downloaded or maybe something I received from an infected PC that I got a virus or problem from.
I tried using the MacKeeper software, but it is not working for me (?). Also I tried blocking pop-ups (I use Google Chrome), Java Script, automatic downloads, complements and everything I could when going online, but it has not gotten better over the last 9 months. My parents also recommended me a very good technician, who I personally know and has solved many of my previous problems, but he could not help me, in this situation.
For that reason, I have been considering either purchasing a good antivirus for my Mac or a new Mac and an antivirus for it, to prevent future problems like this one.
Either way, the question is the same,
Which is the best antivirus and spyware software for Mac?
Thank you so much for your attention.

Please get rid of MacKeeper, as it and most other such junk software will do more harm than good.
