The strange thing is the scheduled time was 00:05 SQL&#62; select repeat_interval, next_run_date from dba_scheduler_jobs where job_name = 'myjob'; REPEAT_INTERVAL NEXTY_RUN_DATE ---------------------------------- --------------------------------- FREQ=DAILY; BYHOUR=00; BYMINUTE=05 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today was a mini-Pythian day at RMOUG. Both Alex and myself gave two presentations each. My first session was on using LDAP with Oracle Applications. It was at 8:30am and there were a few brave souls that fought the snow and icy road conditions to make it. The group was small and I was pleasantly [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I had a great time today at RMOUG. Still very tired from traveling yesterday, I missed the opening session. I managed to make it to Bradley Brown&#8217;s APEX session, only a little late. I was quite impressed with some of the things that can be done in APEX. Brad demonstrated a sample application with master [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As you may or may not know, I have been spending time in the Pythian Office in Sydney, Australia. Before I came, family and friends did some research and found that Australia was suffering from several years of drought and desperately needed rain. So I packed nothing but sunny summer clothing. I am not sure [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While perusing the Oracle 11g Data Pump documents recently, I noticed a new parameter that was introduced in Oracle 10g, but I had missed it there. The parameter is TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION, and it applies only to the Data Pump Import. Basically, this feature allows you to decide how to handle importing data if a table already [...]]]></description>

Going stir-crazy from sitting in with all the rain, I was looking for something to do. Paul (from the Pythian Group Australia office) suggested either shopping in [...]]]></description>

It was &#8220;hands-on&#8221;, so we were supposed to bring our laptops to install software and he was going to do demos. NO ONE in the room brought their laptop. So Tim Middleton did an excellent job of ad-hoc presentation and [...]]]></description>
