The quantity of animals around us at any given time was extraordinary. All of the photos were taken within a few kilometers of each other

Happy Cinco de Mayo to me... I finally caved and bought a new monitor. I'm doing some color calibration on it in the image. The old monitor couldn't be calibrated since even at the highest contract/brightness setting it was still too dark.

"We got this germanium semiconductor detector in September. Except for private institutions, there are only 9 of these in Japan that are available to us. There are one in Fukushima, one in Nagano, and our one. It's been only two months, but we had 50 samples already. People really seem to be curious and desperate to have this system."

Signalman Petty Officer First Class (DV) Ronald Fontes assigned to Mobile Diving and Salvage Unit-ONE, Pearl Harbor, HI, enters the wreck site of the USS Monitor to clear debris from the engine room so the engine can be rigged for removal. 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.

Wildflowers are hard to beat in the Sierra Nevada. This image was taken on BLM-manged public lands south of Monitor Pass at about 8,000 feet. Additional blooms appear at higher elevations across the Sierra as well as the Great Basin (Bodie Hills, Nevada etc.) The Monitor Pass area is a mix of USFS and BLM lands with a number of two-track roads offering opportunities for exploring on foot or 4-WD.

The Nile Monitor (Varanus niloticus) is a large member of the monitor lizard family (Varanidae).
Nile Monitors grow to about 1.5 to 2 m (4.9 to 6.6 ft) in length. They have muscular bodies, strong legs and powerful jaws. The teeth are sharp and pointed in juvenile animals and become blunt and peg-like in adults. They also possess sharp claws used for climbing, digging, defense, or tearing at their prey. Like all monitors they have a forked tongue, with highly developed olfactory properties.
Their nostrils are placed high on the snout, indicating that these animals are highly aquatic, but are also excellent climbers and quick runners on land. Nile Monitors feed on fish, snails, frogs, crocodile eggs and young, snakes, birds, small mammals, large insects, and carrion.
In South Africa they are commonly referred to as "leguaan," from the Dutch for iguana.

I had wanting a flat screen monitor for a while now, so once I got my financial aid refund, we went out and purchased one. Now I will have lots more room at my desk to spread out books and papers. It saves so much room on my desk!
Late afternoon shadows of three different objects on my bookcase. Would anyone (who does not work at my office) care to make any guesses as to what these objects are? I will be very impressed if anyone can guess any one.
In 1953, Shell Labs in Amsterdam was the first site in the Netherlands to use an electronic computer in a production environment. The computer was a Ferranti Mark I*, designed at Manchester University (with help from the legendary Alan Turing) and built by British company Ferranti. The Amsterdam model was called MIRACLE, for "Mokums (Amsterdam's) Industrial Research Automatic Calculator for Laboratory and Engineering", but some people nicknamed it "May It Replace All Chaotic Laboratory Experiments". My mother was one of its programmers and kept a photo album.
This was a monitor of the computer, that could only show binary digits; no characters. Below, a switchboard, used to input binary numbers by hand and set the start address of the program that was loaded from tape into the memory.
The memory was made of Williams-Kilburn tubes. The predecessor of this computer, the Baby, was the first to load its programs fully in memory before execution. Older computers needed to be rewired for each program change.
