My babies. This is the view from my bed. The 24" is now the perfect display since I can lean up against my wall and have a beautiful widescreen view. Or... just fall asleep watching TV with Windows MCE.
Hey, I love tumblr. :D ( coversencupcakes.tumblr.com/ ) So yeah. This is quite random, but I haven't posted in a while, so I had to upload something,I'm in the making of a blog too, so I'll let you guys know when that comes up into cyberspace! Anyway, peace :D
I liked my 24" Dell so much I decided to give it a friend. Or I guess twin. Either way, having a dual monitor setup is a godsend for anyone who spends the majority of his or her waking life in front of a humming computer.
Desk is a little dusty and the un-natural light don't do the scene any favours...
Just a quick shot whilst avoiding some work I'm supposed to be doing right about now.
Bought a new 1080p monitor (on left) tor replace my old one that broke. Not sure if I will keep the one of the right side. The new one is just so much better.
Watching Hotaru no Hikari 2 at 1080p and drinking a can of the Champagne of Beers.
Some historic former manufacturing plants have a dark side, as these environmental monitoring wells at the former John Lucas/Sherwin-Williams Paint Works plant site show. The area is an EPA Superfund site.
My old Commodore CRT monitor, discovered deep in the garage closet. I can't
believe this thing still works.
Here is my new dual-monitor iMac setup. Also shown in the picture are my Sprint PPC 6700 PocketPC and my Dell Inspiron notebook.
The big monitor in the middle is new. It's actually a "gamer" monitor like a colleague has at home and that we got a very good deal on. Some more desk rearranging is definitely forthcoming.
Or should the title have been, "Does Size Matter?"?

My parents just got a brand new iMac and a cable modem. They're now using Skype for the first time to call my brother and his family.

Negombo
Excursion to the Dutch channels, Negombo lagoon and Muthurajawela-wetland.
Negombo Lagoon is a large estuarine lagoon in Negombo, south-west Sri Lanka.
The lagoon is fed by a number of small rivers and the Hamilton Canal (also known as the Dutch canal). It is linked to the sea by a narrow channel to the north, near Negombo city. It is surrounded by a densely populated region containing rice paddies, coconut plantations and grassland. The land is used for fishing and agriculture. The lagoon has extensive mangrove swamps and attracts a wide variety of water birds including cormorants, herons, egrets, gulls, terns and other waders. Negombo, Katunayake, Seeduwa are some nearby towns. Lagoon fishing is popular among the fishing community in Negombo. Lagoon crabs and lagoon prawns are in high taste and demand.

Muthurajawela is a marsh in Sri Lanka in the southern region of the Negombo lagoon, 30 km (19 mi) north of Colombo. The Muthurajawela Marshes are 3,068 ha (7,580 acres) in area and the country's largest saline coastal peat bog. The marsh is notable for its unique and highly diverse ecosystem and is listed as one of 12 priority wetlands in Sri Lanka. "Muthurajawela" translates to "Swamp of Royal Treasure".
The marsh is believed to have originated about 7,000 years ago. In 1996 1,777 ha (4,390 acres) of the northern part of the Muthurajawela marsh was declared a wetland sanctuary by the government, under the Flora and Fauna Protection Act, in recognition of its vast bio-diversity. The region supports 192 distinct species of flora and 209 distinct species of fauna, including Slender Loris, as well as another 102 species of birds. Some of the identified species have been shown to be indigenous to the marsh.
The marsh is a major local and tourist attraction, primarily for sightseeing and boating tours, and the area also supports local agriculture and forestry. Visitors to the region are guided through the sanctuary areas by the staff of the Muthurajawela Marsh Centre to avoid serious harm to the marsh ecosystem.

The Asian water monitor (Varanus salvator) is a large varanid lizard native to South and Southeast Asia. It is widely considered to be the second-largest lizard species, after the Komodo dragon. It is distributed from eastern and northeastern India and Bangladesh, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Sri Lanka, through southern China and Hainan Island in the east to mainland Southeast Asia and the islands of Sumatra, Borneo, Java, Lombok, the Riau Archipelago, Sulawesi. It is one of the most widespread monitor lizards.
The Asian water monitor has a natural affinity towards water, inhabiting the surroundings of lakes, rivers, ponds, swamps and various riparian habitats, including sewers, city parks, and urban waterways. It is an excellent swimmer and hunts fish, frogs, invertebrates, water birds, and other types of aquatic and amphibious prey. Due to its apparently large, stable population, it is currently listed as Least Concern on to the IUCN Red List.
Vegetation monitoring is done every two years. Exotics and native species are located and counted during this monitoring. In the above photo, plant species are identified and counted within the space between the two poles. The black tape on the poles are a foot apart and aid in quantifying how much of one species is within the sample space. This sampling took place before planting in 2008. Eventually, the ground was covered in plant life.
The monitor lizards are large lizards in the genus Varanus. They are native to Africa, Asia and Oceania, but are now found also in the Americas as an invasive species. A total of 79 species are currently recognized. (Source: Wikipedia)
Powering up the first time. So far it's all gone smoothly. We'll see how the Vista install goes tomorrow.
The first try. Nice experiments; don't forget to give a look at the whole transparent screens group.
