Actually, they don't take a piece although they do ask for an extra
voluntary contribution for themselves on an up-sell page.

Act Blue has been around for a few years now so they're not a bogus web
site.

I found the whole thing interesting because it had happened to me.

Re: [NF] No digital TV signal?

Yes, Nucomm has a patent for digital transmission over microwave analog, 
if that's what your talking about.  I'm not qualified to discuss the 
technicalities of how a digital signal is transmitted,  whether from the 
broadcast studio to the microwave tower, or from the microwave tower to 
the TV antenna, or from the TV antenna to the HDTV, or from microwave 
tower to microwave tower, etc.  There seem to be a lot of R&D in this 
area, so things can change in a hurry.  

It does seem that a digital signal is the future for TV, and a high 
definition TV is designed to work natively with a digital signal, so I 
would look closely at the long term cost to purchase a new High 
Definition TV, as opposed tot he long term cost of retrofitting an 
analog TV with a tuner box to convert the digital signal to analog.

 No. The bowtie/halo part of the antenna should get the digital signal
 that's broadcast on UHF. It's an all-or-nothing proposition, though.
 Weak signals that came in poorly in analog won't come in at all
 digitally.

Leland, the only frequencies being free up are channels 51 to 88.  The
digital transmitters are assigned the current frequencies from channel 2 to
50.  Not all Analog TV goes Black or off air on Feb 17th, Low power TV
Stations can continue to transmit for at least 2 years past that date. The
FCC has not pasted the ruling yet.  Come on up to Northern NY and I'll get
out the frequency analyzer and show what an 8VSB "digital signal" really
analog signal looks like. Believe me it's an analog FM signal with phase
encoding in the signal and its still 6 MHz wide, just like analog TV.  At
the station we tell are transmitter engineer he has a High Power Amplifier
with the Random Bit Generator option, when the transmitter gets out of
alignment and subcarriers don't sync up.

The electromagnetic field contains ranges of energy, (eg waves or 
frequencies), with various ranges suited to different kinds of energy.  
For example radio, microwaves, lasers beams, TV signals, etc all exist 
within their own electromagnetic frequencies or ranges.

The switch to digital TV in part is to free up a range of 
electromagnetic fields previously used for analog TV, so it can be 
dedicated for use by the government, for example by agencies like 
Homeland Security during an emergency.   The government also has sold 
some of the analog frequencies of the private sector.  Also, the switch 
to digital TV has to do with improved TV quality for consumers.

A High Definition Television, (eg HDTV), is the product being sold, and 
a digital signal is used to deliver the picture/sound.

An example of a analog system is the use of a modem to modulate and 
demodulate sound over an electric wire.  This is an analog system, 
because it requires the communications to be modulated and demodulated 
using sounds, much like people talking on the phone.  The numbers and 
letters of the alphabet that are represented by a string of 8 bits of 1s 
and 0s, or ons or offs, etc are carried over the wires between two 
computers via sounds.

In a digital system, the 1s and 0s, or ons and offs, do not have to be 
modulated and demodulated into an analog signal.  The 1 and 0, or the 
ons and offs exist in a pure energy state and are transmitted through 
space, like between two microwave towers or via pure light over fiber 
optic cables.

The new HDTV are designed to work with a digital signal, but during the 
transition to digital TV, all newer HDTVs come with a tuner that allows 
the HDTV to show an analog channel.  I suppose the tuner will become 
irrelevant after Feb 19, 2009 for anyone with a HDTV, as all TV will be 
delivered via a digital signal, so anyone that still has an analog TV 
will need a tuner to change the digital signal into an analog one.

Hi Kristyne!

Actually, this is just what they did to Wooten. He Tasered a 10 year 
old, drove his patrol vehicle while drinking alcohol and illegally shot 
a moose. They "talked to" him. The postal worker, and Wooten, should 
have been fired.

Funny that there is no mention of it on Dan Seals site even tho there is 
a press release from as late as yesterday.  Possible that it's a "story" 
designed to have you contribute to a site that actually takes a piece of

Hi Everybody,

Back when we had an office in a strip mall in Wildomar, we apparently got
the postal worker upset with us for some unknown reason. She hid just some
of our mail in a corner of the post office, and it went undelivered for over
3 months. The biggest problem was that we did not receive invoices from some
vendors and wound up getting way behind on their billing because the
invoices did not get delivered. It took us about 3 more months to get it all
fixed and get our payments up to date.

The postal worker was 'talked to' by her manager, but she still has her job.

Something similar has just happened to congressional candidate Dan Seals in

We have very little spare cash right now, but we sent some of it to him.
Please give it some thought about whether you might also want to help

When you initialize the grid, iterate through the columns collection and call 
bindevents() with the column,
"DBLCLICK" and the dbl click handler of your choice.

I'm sorry you're struggling with the VFP 9 Report Writer .. but I *STRONGLY*
disagree that it's junk and lacking features. It's absolutely awesome and
provides unlimited new features once you grasp how to use it. MSFT has
completely opened the door for us to "extend" the report writer as much as
our imaginations can create. 

The issue about fields not fitting is well documented. The RW now uses GDI+
to render instead of the older GDI, and GDI+ happens to have slightly
different sizes which can result in some fields not fitting on the report
anymore, especially numeric fields with formatting. You simply have to
adjust the field width of those fields by a few pixels and all is well. We
have hundreds of reports in our application and it didn't take very long at
all to test each one and widen fields where needed. 

The issue you're having with a report being in an infinite loop .. I'm not
sure how the new report engine would cause that. I have not encountered
that. 

The things I've done with the new reports is amazing ... conditionally
changing the font size of large descriptions so they fit in a smaller space,
forcing page breaks when I want them, keeping entire groups of data together
on one page, shrinking an entire report so I can fit 2 "pages" on one sheet,
including a top and/or left offset to shift an entire report for binding or
preprinted forms, printing booklets which involves duplex printing with
pages out of order and shrunk down to 2 per side of sheet, switching a
landscape report to portrait and reducing size so more can fit on a page,
shrinking an entire report so 1+ pages gets shrunk down enough and prints on
one page only (like the "reduce to fit" feature in Excel) ... and on and on.

The VFP 9 Report Writer is EXTREMELY powerful

I'm sorry you're struggling with the VFP 9 Report Writer .. but I *STRONGLY*
disagree that it's junk and lacking features. It's absolutely awesome and
provides unlimited new features once you grasp how to use it. MSFT has
completely opened the door for us to "extend" the report writer as much as
our imaginations can create. 

The issue about fields not fitting is well documented. The RW now uses GDI+
to render instead of the older GDI, and GDI+ happens to have slightly
different sizes which can result in some fields not fitting on the report
anymore, especially numeric fields with formatting. You simply have to
adjust the field width of those fields by a few pixels and all is well. We
have hundreds of reports in our application and it didn't take very long at
all to test each one and widen fields where needed. 

The issue you're having with a report being in an infinite loop .. I'm not
sure how the new report engine would cause that. I have not encountered
that. 

The things I've done with the new reports is amazing ... conditionally
changing the font size of large descriptions so they fit in a smaller space,
forcing page breaks when I want them, keeping entire groups of data together
on one page, shrinking an entire report so I can fit 2 "pages" on one sheet,
including a top and/or left offset to shift an entire report for binding or
preprinted forms, printing booklets which involves duplex printing with
pages out of order and shrunk down to 2 per side of sheet, switching a
landscape report to portrait and reducing size so more can fit on a page,
shrinking an entire report so 1+ pages gets shrunk down enough and prints on
one page only (like the "reduce to fit" feature in Excel) ... and on and on.

The VFP 9 Report Writer is EXTREMELY powerful

RE: View Resolution Conflict

2008-10-31 Thread James Trogdon
Yep, I found that out during some testing with two instances of my program 
running.  I could never get the TABLEUPDATE to fail.  So I copied the 
SaveRecord procedure from the framework class, put it in my datahandler 
application class, and then renamed it.  So those instances I need to check for 
a conflict, I can use the modified SaveRecord routine that now has the sllOK = 
TABLEUPDATE(0,.F.).  I surrounded my SaveRecord call with a loop so if the 
TABLEUPDATE fails I can cancel the changes in the view using the TABLEREVERT() 
command and then loop again calling a Requery first.  I have the loop set to 
run 10 times so if for some reason the TABLEUPDATE cannot save, I can prompt 
the user to either retry another 10 times or cancel.  In testing on my local 
machine with two instances of my program running, this prevents the scenario of 
two users trying to update the onhand quantity with the same starting value.  
Thanks for all your help!

James Trogdon

>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/28/08 07:23PM >>>
>> sllOK = TABLEUPDATE(0,.T.)<<

This is forcing the update no matter what. The second parameter should be .F. 
and I would expect it
to fail. From the Help file:

llForce: True - Overwrites any changes made to the table or cursor by another 
user on a network. The
WHERE clause uses only key fields.

[OT] Notice to All Employees

2008-10-31 Thread Michael Madigan
Notice to All Employees 
 
As of November 5, 2008, when President Obama is officially elected into office, 
our company will install a few new policies which are in keeping with his new, 
inspiring issues of change and fairness:
 
1. All salespeople will be pooling their sales and bonuses into a common pool 
that will be divided equally between all of you. This will serve to give those 
of you who are underachieving a 'fair shake'.
 
2. All low level workers will be pooling their wages, including overtime, into 
a common pool, dividing it equally amongst your selves.  This will help those 
who are 'too busy for overtime' to reap the reward from those who have more 
spare time and can work extra hours.
 
3. All top management will now be referred to as 'the Government'.  We will not 
participate in this 'pooling' experience because the law doesn't apply to us.
 
4. The 'government' will give eloquent speeches to all employees every week, 
encouraging its workers to continue to work hard 'for the good of all'.
 
5. The employees will be thrilled with these new policies because it's 'good to 
spread the wealth'.  Those of you who have underachieved will finally get an 
opportunity to participate in the 'wealth'; so those of you who have worked 
hard and had success will feel more 'patriotic'.
 
6. The last few people who were hired should clean out their desks.  Don't feel 
bad, though, because President Obama will give you free healthcare, free 
handouts, free oil for heating your home, free food stamps, and he'll let you 
stay in your home for as long as you want even if you can't pay your mortgage.  
If you appeal directly to our democrat congress, you might even get a free flat 
screen TV and a coupon for free haircuts (shouldn't all Americans be entitled 
to nice looking hair?)!!!
 
If for any reason you are not happy with the new policies, you may want to 
rethink your vote on November 4th.

RE: [OT] Three newspapers that endorsed McCain thrown off Obama plane

2008-10-31 Thread Bob Calco
Mike:

How anyone cannot see what mean-spirited pricks he and all his Chicago
allies really are, how he was rooted in, and sprouted up from, and has been
tended and groomed in a veritable cabbage patch of totalitarian politics in
Hyde Park, is a mystery to me.

> Could you immagine McCain throwing off all the newspapers that endorsed

He could fly around in a Cessna if he did that. It's amazing how in-the-tank
the "Old Media" is for this guy--precisely because they know he'll shut down
dissent and the alternative media with impunity, and rescue their sorry
asses from free market competition that has eroded their monopoly.

More than anything I view the media's bias as the last-gasp effort of an
industry on the ropes. Even if they manage, as is their hearts' desire, to
stifle opposition and resistance to their hegemony, it will only be for
season. Unfortunately, the reaction will be so strong it could cause major
divisions that today are barely fractures by comparison in our society.

I see only upheaval and strife coming from an Obama presidency--not because
he's black, but because he is every bit the ideologue that all--each and
every one--of his past alliances indicate, and he will govern like an Hugo
Chavez--especially if he gets a filibuster proof Senate.
