Very nice video made with SDO images. (304 nm filter (or is it Angstrom), I always switch the two)
The first shadow object is the moon. The second one is probably Venus.
If you see plasma flowing back to the surface in these weird curved lines, that´s due to the magnetic field lines which the plasma follows.

enjoy.

Since the video description says 30.4 nm I guess it was Ångström you were thinking about.

I hear Angstrom got tenure.

Should be about as easy.

Since it's legitimate, does it work for most people?
The link leads me to a blank page every time I try it.

 Something went wrong on the send. This is very disheartening. I have emailed you the link. If anyone else would like to take the survey please let me know and I will email it to you as well.
Thanks,

Okay, I have been wondering for a while that In my country Zambia, I can purchase an android app on Google play yet I can't sell my own except rely on ads for monetization.
Why is Google play merchant account so limited and one sided? This limits one's business models, in a modern world such as this one, a one sided store is bad for business, you can buy but can't sell.
Maybe I'am missing something here, paypal is everywhere, why can't Google merchant account support all countries? If it can't then those countries that are not supported should also not be able to purchase paid apps.

I would wager a guess that google hasn't worked out the legislative details with the Zambia government to collect money and pay taxes. What you have is a subset of features based on legal issues.
Purely speculation.
|
|
|
|
|
But Google can collect money if I pay for an app or do an in-app purchase, those legislative laws should apply both ways, shouldn't they?
I feel like if one can purchase something then they should be able to sell something too.

No, not really.

Maybe if you could clarify a little bit about how taxes work on either side, in a case were I purchase an app or do an in-app purchase, Google, the developer and the government in the supported country gets a share, Purchasing an app from a developer residing in another country is like importing it in my country, thus somehow my government needs a chunk of that money. That's why I feel it's not fair, if a Google merchant account can't support a particular country then purchasing should not be supported as well in that country.

When you talk about international commerce, global politics comes into play, and the result can be anything but fair.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Yeah this one is a genuine answer

The only thing I can clarify is how I would get taxed in my country, when selling or purchasing, but that would be useless to you. I have no idea how Google would be taxed in my country, yours, or their, nor I know how you would be taxed in your country.
And you purchasing apps via credit card and receive payments via wired transfer, which are covered by different sets of law in your country, probably.
So I guess tax laws, bank regulations and Google interests do not add up in case of your country.

That would be crazy, there's much more people buying apps then selling them. Why should overwhelming majority of customers be blocked from using one important feature of the store/market, just because minority cannot use some other feature due to external obstacles? That's not my vision of fair, or sane. I know it sucks you cannot sell apps, but your idea of fair does not hold water in this case.
