La scena era per testare un tele 400 di un mio amico, puntando nel mezzo della lampada da scrivania e il top del mio monitor...e' venuta fuori questa foto, simpatica per uno sfondo di scrivania.
The monitor displays a history of fuel consumption for the last half hour, averaged over five-minute intervals. The "Current" MPG reading at the right is zero when the car is not moving, is off the top of the scale when the car is moving but the gasoline engine is off, and otherwise shows the fuel economy you're achieving moment by moment.Then it's averaged over five minutes, and displayed on the chart at the left; the little car symbols show how much energy you've put back into the battery pack using regenerative braking.
Mertens' water monitor (Varanus mertensi), is a species of lizard in the family Varanidae. The species is endemic to northern Australia, and is a wide-ranging, actively foraging, opportunistic predator of aquatic and riparian habitats.
It grows to a total length (including tail) of about 1.0 m (3.3 ft). It is dark brown to black above, with many cream to yellow spots. The underparts are paler – white to yellowish – with grey mottling on the throat and blue-grey bars on the chest. The tail is strongly compressed laterally, with a high median dorsal keel, and is about 1.5 times the length of head and body.
Varanus mertensi is semiaquatic, a strong swimmer, and seldom far from water. It is often seen basking on midstream rocks and logs, and on branches overhanging swamps, lagoons, and waterways throughout its range. When disturbed, it drops into the water, where it can stay submerged for long periods.

The top of Monitor pass, east end. 50 more miles and on the 395 towards home! 10/25/2016. Around 8,000'
Was lucky enough to see this Monitor sitting by the side of Fogg Dam. Jumped out the car, alittle nervous about crocodiles and quickly snapped away. It posed nicely for a few minutes before crossing the road and disappearing into the scrub.
Thanks for the name correction Rob!
The Kunsthochschule Kassel has a big exhibition in Kassel right now - embedded in the project Spaziergang Kassel; and I am shooting a little documentary on it *yay*.
Females may be able to retain sperm, and females held in confinement have been able to lay fertile eggs. Varanus niloticus has been demonstrated to be capable of parthenogenesis. The main breeding season is June to September. Males, however, begin to show combat behaviour in April. Females dig a nest hole in level ground or a vertical bank and lay the eggs inside, filling it up and using their snouts to compact the soil. The females often dig false nests nearby and shovel soil around the area. They sometimes make use of a termite mound to nest. A single clutch of about 20 eggs are laid. The eggs hatch in 168 to nearly as long as 254 days.[18] About 40 to 80% of the eggs may hatch

"One can't take a breath large enough to last a lifetime ; one can't eat a meal big enough so that one never needs to eat again. Similarly, I don't think any climb can make you content never to climb again." ~Woodrow Wilson Sayre.
On a total whim, Nick and I decided to climb Mt. St. Helens today. It is the famous volcano that massively erupted in 1980. Our climb went great! It is definitely an awesome sight to see. And it felt so good to be above the clouds.
