RE: [NF] Competition fuel denied email address

2006-12-14 Thread Adam Buckland
Hi Michael,

The Scunthorpe Problem occurs when a spam filter or search engine accidentally 
blocks e-mails or search results due to the inclusion of a string of letters in 
the text which is mistaken for an obscene word.

The problem was named after an incident in 1996 in which America Online's 
dirty-word filter prevented residents from the town of Scunthorpe from signing 
up for AOL, due to the town's name containing the substring "cunt". Google's 
filters apparently made the same mistake, even when residents searched for 
local businesses with "Scunthorpe" in the name. Residents of Penistone, South 
Yorkshire, suffered a similar problem because of the "penis" substring.

Pornography-filtering programs intended to protect children also fail to 
descriminate between sites that have "sex" in their titles because they carry 
explicit content and those like "RomansInSussex.org", which is a site for 
school children to learn about the history of Sussex. Even a business like 
ArkansasExtermination.com will be blocked in this way.

Recently it has become impossible to mention the words "Socialism" or 
"Socialist" on the Salon.com message boards or blogs because those words 
contain "Cialis", the brand name for an erectile dysfunction medication 
commonly advertised in spam. A similar problem can occur involving the word 
"specialist", typically blocking mailed resumes and other materials including 
job descriptions.

Other examples of mistaken decisions by computer e-mail filters include:

In February 2006 Linda Callahan, a resident of Ashfield, Massachusetts was 
initially prevented from registering her name with Yahoo! as an e-mail address 
as it contained the substring "Allah". Yahoo! later reversed the ban. [1] 
In October 2004, it was reported that the Horniman Museum in London was failing 
to receive some of its e-mail due to filters mistakenly deciding that its name 
was a version of the words "horny man". [2] [3] 
A reader of the Daily Mail newspaper reported that e-mails mentioning the ice 
skater Irina Slutskaya were often blocked due to the inclusion of the substring 
"slut". 
Additionally there can be cases of whole word filtering, showing that computer 
obscenity filters may fail to take into account the context in which a word 
appears:

In May 2006 Ray Kennedy from Manchester in the UK found that e-mails that he 
had written to his local council to complain about a planning application had 
been blocked as they contained the word "erection" when referring to a 
structure. [4] 
In October 2004, e-mails advertising the pantomime Dick Whittington sent by a 
teacher from Norwich in the UK were blocked by school computers due to the use 
of the word "Dick". [5] 
In February 2003 MPs at the British House of Commons found that a new spam 
filter was blocking emails containing references to the Sexual Offences Bill 
then under debate, as well as some messages relating to a discussion about 
censorship.

What kinds of work do you do? I seriously don't see any lack at all of work
at least in the LA area. Several of the places I was working before are
still looking for people even.

If all you know is older versions of FoxPro then perhaps it is tough, but if
you have been keeping up with internet technologies and also know VFP there
does not seem to be any lack at all. I don't think it is too great for a
VFP-only programmer with no other skills, but for someone that has two or
three things they know how to do I can't see how they'd go hungry around
here.

Just because one invented something doesn't mean that anyone uses it. 
Attempting the preposterous and lame use of tabs in lieu of spaces being 
an extremely spot-on example.

And the USPTO requires that an invention be USEFUL.

So, yes, you do warrant a mention, albeit in a footnote on page 427.

Will do.

You do have to promise to create a commercial application and submit it 
for certification in the next year or so ... OR ... go for more M$ 
certification.  I have created a little VFP file backup utility that I'm 
going to bundle up and sell for the low, low price of $999.99.  Get

[OT] Joke

2006-12-14 Thread Stephen Russell
During a terrible storm, all the highway signs were covered with snow. The
following spring, the state decided to raise all the signs twelve inches at
a cost of six million dollars. 
“That’s an outrageous price!” said a local farmer, “but I guess we’re lucky
the state handled it instead of the federal government.” “Why’s that?” 

“Because knowing the federal government, they’d decided to lower the
highways.”

MS Partner Program has VFP under Database Products!

2006-12-14 Thread Kevin Cully
So, I'm trying to jump through the hoops to sign up for the Empower ISV 
program and my eyes are starting to bleed from all of the checkboxes and 
forms, but then ... what do we have here?!?

Under the "Which Microsoft products will your product offering support?" 
and under the "Database Products" is the choice for VFP!  Okay, it's not 
a perfect choice in that it is really "Microsoft Visual FoxPro 6.0" 
(What!  No 7.0, 8.0 or 9.0?!?!  This might explain why ODBC stopped 
working with features added after 6.0!) but I choose it anyway!  w00t!!!

Side note: VFP is NOT a choice under "Development Languages".

Well, I should hopefully get my Empower DVDs in about 3-4 weeks and I'm 
$401.25 the poorer.

I've been thinking about posting my ME() functions for some time:

SqlMe() - creates a SQL Select statement in the clipboard for the 
current WA, with several options
InsertMe() - Creates a Insert statement in the clipboard, with several 
options, and also creates the VALUES clause with a leading character 
that indicates what kind of data is expected.  Plus, bonus, it sounds 
naughty.
CurseMe() - creates a FILE containing a CREATE CURSOR statement for 
current WA, with lots of options
MySQLMe() - Creates a MySQL CREATE TABLE statement, etc...
MSSQLME() - Creates a MS SQL CREATE TABLE statement, and IIRC, creates 
the ALTER Table command for the Primary index, and the index commands 
for the other indexes
MyAccessMe()  - ditto for Access
ORASQLME() - ditto for Oracle
OraDate() converts a vfp date to Oracle TO_Date command for use in 
queries: e.g. OraDate(date()) =" To_Date('12/14/2006','MM/DD/')"
NvlSQLMe() - creates a SQL Select statement in clipboard with all fields 
NVL'd:  SELECT NVL(Spons_uid, '') AS Spons_uid... etc...
WaitGlass()  - turns hourglass cursor on/off

These things save me hours of time doing repetitive, boring coding.  If 
there's any interest, let me know and I'll e-mail code to whoever wants 
it. If people STILL think it's useful after getting and trying the code, 
let me know and I'll talk to Ed about putting it in the downloads section.

Subject: [NF] Excel custom form question

Got a colleague who's got a client with an Excel printing problem.  
Client has a Oki Microline 591 24-pin printer.  Form is a custom form size
(don't have dimensions at hand) but he said it's "jumping" every print
slightly, and eventually gets out of alignment (vertically) by the 4th or
5th print?  I believe he had set the custom size setting in Excel but
apparently it didn't work as he expected.

Ideas?

Thanks!

I have lots of ideas because I do this all the time but I don't know where to 
begin.  For me it's one of those things that I know so well, I can't explain 
how to do it.

Printer creep should never occur unless you are printing continuously (no form 
feeds) or the page size is not set right on the printer.

Excel will change it's print metrics ever so slightly for different printers 
and even the same printer if you switch the printer from draft mode to 
high-quality mode.  It will also change things if you alter the font size on 
the display control panel applet.

There are so many variables involved.  Ask me some questions ... maybe my 
answers will help.

Sounds to me like the custom formsize is slightly larger than the page size
set up on the printer as it must be slightly smaller or exactly the same.
 
1. Make sure the "skip top of form" setting is set to NO in the hardware
Printer setup (Shift and Menu whilst offline to enter setup menu)

2. Ensure that the custom pagesize in excel is smaller than the papersize in
the printer (again you can set this up on the printer)

3. Adjust the "microfeed" setting on the printer frontpanel so that
consecutive manua PageFeeds are EXACTLY aligned to top of form.

Subject: [NF] Excel custom form question

Got a colleague who's got a client with an Excel printing problem.  
Client has a Oki Microline 591 24-pin printer.  Form is a custom form 
size (don't have dimensions at hand) but he said it's "jumping" every 
print slightly, and eventually gets out of alignment (vertically) by the 
4th or 5th print?  I believe he had set the custom size setting in Excel 
but apparently it didn't work as he expected.

Ideas?

Thanks!

Yeah, that's probably true. If there were such exploits, we all know  
that Microsoft would keep really, really quiet about it, so as not to  
make their competition look bad.  LOL!

This is the company, you know, that tried to say that Linux had more  
vulnerabilities than Windows by adding up the reported  
vulnerabilities of every distro, even if they had nothing to do with  
the Linux OS itself! E.g., if there was an app called 'dummy' that  
was included in 20 different Linux distros, and someone found a  
buffer overrun problem in it, it would be reported to all 20 sites,  
and Microsoft would count that as 20 vulnerabilities in Linux! Even  
though it was an app, not the OS!

Yeah, you're right. Microsoft would never go out of their way to  
make the competition look bad.

First of all, the architectures are different. It's more difficult to 
exploit a weakness in OOo because of the way it's built. Word (and 
Office) was designed from the ground up to be promiscuous back before 
there were viruses, and MSFT has had too much of an investment to change 
that architecture.

Second, it might.

Name one. 

I'm being pragmatic here. Just as if you're a frequent traveler, you 
learn which flights to avoid because they have a history of being late, 
and you're more likely to be delayed on those flights. That doesn't mean 
that the flight you DO choose won't be late; just that the chances are less.

Same here. No guarantee that OOo won't be affected, but given that 
there hasn't EVER been even a minor virus spread by an OOo exploit, 
that's the flight I'm taking.

Being accused and being guilty are two different things.

Yes, if OOo had an 80% market share, I'm sure it would be a more 
tempting target. I'd still feel more comfortable with it, though.

IIS and Apache have roughly similar market shares. But IIS has been the 
source of numerous security problems over the years. Name one major 
outbreak that's been the result of an Apache flaw.

The Open Source model - many eyes, shallow bugs - just works better than 
where the code is hidden and security by obscurity is the preferred 
practice.

Other than asking them why they are running software that, six years after a

Googling with non-MS browser. You should try it.

Also, since PostgreSQL is not a 'server' it's a 'database', you'd probably 
want to change your search phrase a little bit. I did "Hosted PostgreSQL" 
and got over 1 million hits. I then tried your phrase "hosted server 
postgresql" and got 795,000 hits. I then did a "website offer hosted 
postgresql" and got 148,000 hits.

2006-12-14 Thread Rick Schummer
Vince, 

If you are not reengineering the database model then you need to consider the 
Sedna Upsizing Wizard.
I have used it numerous times in testing and it has worked every time. I am 
talking about migrating
structures *and* data to SQL Server 2000 and 2005. You can run the wizard or 
you can
programmatically control the engine (especially useful if you have to migrate 
the same database
numerous times - think vertical market app). 

This is not the old wizard warmed over for Sedna. This is a usable tool.

Re: [OT] Madagain and Pete EXPLAINED!

2006-12-14 Thread Helio W.
That nut in Iran could be just a politician vomiting through the media what
his local audience wants to hear.  If he is serious (a possibility as
fundamentalists are retards), I hope his own people will "neutralize" him.
If not, I believe there's always cleaner ways to erradicate psychos than
using nukes on innocent people like some fundamentalists on the other side
of the spectrum always keep asking for.

I also believe Madagain and Pete from now on will start talking to you very
suspiciously... LOL

Nope..
What happens when you have a fixed amount of water is when the water is
rising in another part of the world, it is going down in the original part.

Now take the water out of the equation and put in dollars..

What I see happening is their living standard will go up (which is good) and
ours will go down until they are all at about the same level, which
ultimately will be a lower standard of living then we have now.

I thought things were better too.
BUT I've received lots of emails from others who cannot find work.
I've rewritten my resume at least several hundered times, stopping short at
lying, but I'm beginning to believe that’s what its going to take to get me
back to work.

I have identified the specific cause why I havent been able to find work,
but not a way around it..
When I left high school and chose the military instead of college.

It has been proven to me time and time again lately that if I don't have a
degree on my resume, I don't even get past the HR dept.
Another problem with my specific situation is that I have allways been a
contractor and I have worked a lot of 90 day contracts in a 30 year period..

I had one guy hiring contractors ask me, why havent you ever stayed at one
contract very long. I guess he doesn’t understand that contractors are a
temporary fix.

Another problem seems to be that the contracting agencies will no longer
present people if they don't live in the area which is new to me.
I guess they forgot that us traveling data ho's were the one's that helped
them to build their businesses.

Oh well, I'm not going to cry about it.
Just going to figure out a way to bring money in some other way.

Virgil,

My own job at EDS was recently outsourced to India. However, there are still
plenty of jobs and a lot of work in the area. I haven't replaced all of my
former income yet but I think I will soon. The market really isn't all that
bad for programmers.

I'm a believer in growing the entire pie rather than thinking that the pie
is a fixed size, and that if a slice goes to India there is necessarily that
much less for Americans. There are bumps in the road but I think they're
smoothing out.
