        If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
        1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
        2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
        3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
        4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
        5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

          My camera is kind of old, so the pictures of the full eclipse just look like the inside of my back pocket, but here are some that didn't turn out too bad:

            Thanks Iowatech. It's been cloudy here, so not much of a view. =^..^=

              Is there app for virtual MAC addresses ? Not talking about cloning MAC address in routers but rather shielding each of your devices with a virtual one.

                My one friend does too much p2p downloads/uploads and got his MAC address listed on one of those server. He needs to change his MAC from time to time to get his connection running.

                He found an app that changes the MAC address automatically from time to time. "titanium mac address changer"
                Why do you need that?
                Whatever

                  Just a curiosity. I've noticed some posts about FB users not being Politically correct to be reported and eventually fined should they express them selves in a way that may infringe with the rules of FB. The thing is how would you know what is the step mark of being PC and not being haunted by other "users" who are actually getting paid to report such users. I am against spreading hate, xenophobia etc.. Just intrigued by the fact that this smells of totaliariatism. Since I have walked that path or shall I say the after math when our country was under "occupation" I find a bit worrying. Thats all.
                  MAC > indexed > user > indexed> .. We are all numbered.

                    To my knowledge, FB cannot fine any one, or at least not in America.

                    The only FB rule that I am aware of is to not post anything pornographic or anything that has a copyright without permission. In either case all FB will do is remove the violating content. If you show an on going habit of posting prohibited material, FB will shut your account off for a day or two.

                    FB does not pay anyone to report other users. Any one on FB can report any one else at any time for anything. I know of at least one local talk show host who got kicked off FB for a couple of days just for sending a friend request to a local TV reporter. The reporter said that he was being harassed. Of course they were on opposite ends of the political spectrum but I never hold that against any one.

                        Thanks slimslob. So just another junk flagged by media. Getting bored of the "media" ... sometimes there is no time to spend to check if it is based on facts. Shame, they had quite a few goood articles. Time to ditch that feed.
