"Bengal Monitor" or “Common Indian Monitor", is a monitor lizard found widely distributed over the Indian Subcontinent, as well as parts of Southeast Asia and West Asia. This large lizard is mainly terrestrial, and its length can range from about 61 to 175 cm from the tip of the snout to the end of the tail.

Received my Samsung 204B monitor the other night, was quick to install. Five monitors now, perhaps that's a bit too much? The good old HP monitor can't go higher than 640x480 and after a year or 10, starts to flunk. The TV makes a humming sound but is great for watching movies from my PC or visuals from Winamp.
Overall screen estate: 640x480+1024*768+1600*1200+1152*864+720*576=4 423 680 pixels
Molly’s school selected some of the more responsible 5th graders to be safety monitors, and she was happy to get the job. So, now we have to get to school early every morning so she can stand at her post (outside Kindergarten) and make sure kids are being safe. She takes her job seriously.

Monitor Team Alpha, from left to right: (Azermith & Co fans shouldn't need this) Miles, Ray, and Khryz.
Miles is viewed as the "youngest" and "most innocent" of the Monitor Teams. He is the most naive and childlike, and acts on his feelings rather than instincts.
Ray acts as Miles' "older brother," abusing him here and there, but Ray really does like Miles.
Khryz is the sniper of the team. He is more outgoing and risk-taking than Miles or Ray, but not by much.
Walking through Miami MetroZoo is a must for any visitor to the Miami area - just be prepared for wonderful weather now in the Fall and a long, long walk! Yesterday was no exception!
I have a yearly pass to the zoo and visit numerous times throughout the year. I scheduled time to go to the zoo with a friend who has the same camera I do (Canon 7D). She usually shoots fast action at gymnastics meets and wanted to learn a little more about shooting other things and maybe even learn a little about HDR. We started the day as soon as the zoo opened up and didn't leave until the late afternoon.
As we walked through the Asia exhibit, we went up the stairs to see the otters playing in the water. As we stood there, I heard some kids kinda screaming and when i looked over, I saw the Malayan Water Monitor more active than I have ever seen it. This thing is huge! At almost 10' long, it is just shy of the maximum size they are known to grow.

From Wikipedia:
The Water monitor, (Varanus salvator) is a large species of monitor lizard capable of growing to 3.21 metres (10.5 ft) in length, with the average size of most adults at 1.5 metres (4 ft 11 in) long.[1] Maximum weight of Varanus salvator can be over 25 kilograms (55 lb), but most are half that size. Their body is muscular with a long, powerful, laterally compressed tail. Water monitors are one of the most common monitor lizards found throughout Asia, and range from Sri Lanka, India, Indochina, the Malay Peninsula and various islands of Indonesia, living in areas close to water.

Ecologist Katy Delaney uses a dip net to collect and observe species.
Researchers are monitoring 46 sites in the recreation area to determine the status and long-term trends in the distribution and relative abundance of aquatic amphibians. They also want to determine environmental and physical features that may influence amphibian populations in the Santa Monica Mountains.
The permeability of amphibians' skin and long life (more than 10 years in some species) makes them especially vulnerable to cumulative changes in airborne and waterborne ecosystem stressors.
Monitoring the status of native amphibians helps us detect changes over a broad landscape involving multiple watersheds subjected to various levels of urbanization, pollution, and non-native species, which can help to inform resource management decisions and actions.
A shot taken about three weeks ago of this large, beautifully patterned Crocodile Monitor Lizard at the Calgary Zoo.
"Varanus salvadorii, first described in 1878, is the largest species of monitor lizard found in New Guinea, and is believed to be one of the longest lizards in the world, reaching up to 244 cm (8.0 ft). It is an arboreal lizard with a dark green body and yellowish bands, a blunt snout and a very long tail. It lives in mangrove swamps and coastal rain forests in the southeastern part of the island, where it feeds on birds, small mammals, eggs, and carrion in the wild, using teeth that are better adapted than those of most monitors for seizing fast-moving prey. Like all monitors it has anatomical features that enable it to breathe more easily when running than other lizards can, and V. salvadorii is thought to have greater stamina than most monitors. Little is known about its reproduction and development, as the species is very difficult to breed in captivity.
V. salvadorii is threatened by deforestation and poaching, and is protected by the CITES (Convention on International Trade of Endangered Species) agreement. The lizard is hunted and skinned alive by tribesmen to make drums, who describe the monitor as an evil spirit that "climbs trees, walks upright, breathes fire, and kills men". However they also say that it gives them warnings if there are crocodiles nearby." From Wikipedia.

Engineman Senior Chief Petty Officer (MDV) Lyle Becker of Mobile Diving and Salvage Unit-TWO, Little Creek, VA, descends to the wreck site of the USS Monitor on a stage that will take him and his partner 240 feet down to conduct artifact recovery and salvage work on the wreck. The steam engine and various other artifacts recovered from the wreck site will be preserved and later displayed at the MarinerÕs museum in Newport News, VA. The divers are working from the Derrick Barge WOTAN, the main support vessel for Phase II of the Monitor 2001 expedition, the sixth NOAA-Navy expedition to preserve the historic vessel. The ship went down off the coast of Cape Hatteras, NC, in 1862 during a severe storm.
