COMPANY'S HISTORY
From modest Beginnings in 1979, The Boyds Collection, Ltd. originated in 1979 when Bloomingdale managers Gary (G.M.) and Justina (Tina) Lowenthal left their jobs and moved to Boyds, Maryland, to open a small antique shop out of their "semi-restored' Victorian home. However, the Lowenthals found the antique business expensive and confining. They later moved on to other ventures, such as the making of decorative dried wreaths and split oak tables, neither of which proved profitable. The couple next started buying and selling antique reproductions, which were much more affordable than antiques.
By 1982, the Lowenthals began to wholesale some of their own reproductions, including their very successful duck decoys. The decoys were hand-painted and available in many different sizes and styles, including a nine-inch teal and a giant three-foot whistling swan. Word of the beautiful ducks spread quickly, and the Lowenthals began filling orders for three dozen ducks a day. Gary, who designed the ducks, later estimated that they painted about 40,000 ducks altogether.

Water monitors are common throughout Singapore - as long as there is water in the form of canals or lakes. This one was seen in Jurong Lake Gardens. They grow up to 2.3 metres long, but they only eat small frogs, birds, eggs etc, despite their large menacing size.
Here's a shot of the back of the monitor. If you can't get a tight hold, add a washer between the mount and the monitor. I prefer rubber or fiber washers.

TO VIEW sit back from your monitor 2 feet and place your index finger about 10 inches in front of your eyes and focus on your finger. This will cause your eyes to go comfortably cross eyed. Keep that same cross eyed focus and notice there are now 3 photos in the back ground. Do not let your eyes leave the cross eye as you look at the middle picture which has appeared. Now increase or decrease how much your eyes are cross eyed until the image pops into 3D. Your eyes will want to leave the cross eye, but fight that urge. This is an acquired skill and takes practice. Stop if it's uncomfortable.
El monitor Huáscar es un buque de guerra del siglo XIX de destacada participación en la Guerra del Pacífico. Fue construido en el Reino Unido en 1864 por orden del gobierno peruano y sirvió en la Marina de Guerra del Perú hasta el 8 de octubre de 1879, día en que fue capturado por la escuadra chilena en el combate naval de Angamos. El Huáscar sirvió activamente en la Armada de Chile hasta 1897, año en que fue dado de baja. Actualmente sirve como museo flotante en el puerto chileno de Talcahuano. Es una de las pocas naves de guerra de su época que aún permanece a flote.
Construido por astilleros ingleses en 1863, el Monitor Huáscar era el buque insignia de la armada peruana durante la Guerra del Pacífico. Tras el Combate Naval de Iquique, en que se enfrentó y hundió a La Esmeralda, fue capturado por Chile en la Batalla de Angamos, el 8 de octubre de 1879. En esta pereció el Almirante peruano Miguel Grau Seminario, convirtiéndose en el máximo héroe nacional de la marina de su país.
El Huáscar es un blindado de mar con espolón modelo Ericsson, que desplaza 1,130 toneladas, con 200 pies de eslora y 35 de manga. Era propulsado por un motor de 1,500 caballos de fuerza, cuenta con una coraza de hierro de 4.5 pulgadas y una torre giratoria de 30 pies de diámetro y 5.5 pulgadas de blindaje armada con dos cañones Armstrong de 300 libras y dos cañones pivotantes de 40 libras. Para los estándares de la segunda mitad del siglo XIX, se trataba da una nave de guerra respetable.
La nave se encuentra anclada en el puerto chileno de Talcahuano, a unos 500 km. al sur de Santiago, donde se encuentra la principal base naval de ese país.
Heute hat sich meine geliebte 17 Zoll Röhre endgültig verabschiedet. Gut, der Bildschirm hatte auch schon sieben Jahre auf dem Buckel und hat seinen Ausfall auch schon eine längere Zeit angekündigt.
Naja, jetzt muss ich wohl erst einmal auf dem 12 Zoll Display von meinem iBook arbeiten.
Pic of this Yellow monitor (Varanus flavescens) taken in a large lake at Kolkata, India.
It was swimming in water coming towards the bank, when i took this shot. On reaching the bank, it vanished among the water hyacinth and so cudnt take more pics.
Cheers!
The particle volume monitor measures total particle volume, which is used to estimate the amount of liquid water in clouds. It also measures particle surface area and effective radius.

I wrote up a blog post for Voltaic
Systems DIY page. This post contains the parts, schematic, and
software to start monitoring small solar panels wirelessly. I really
like that this basic infrastructure can be used in pretty much any
project. I suspect that many of my future projects will be making use
of xbee, python, and pachube to capture and share data on-line. I'm
tempted to build a custom circuit which can log my 2kW PV system.
Really tempted.
Wirelss monitor for Wirelsss N Network attached as adaptor (antenna) to my home system PC displays my network (HAL) and a neighbor's. Periodically a Dietschler Wireless is also there. These diaplay a KEY graphic which indicate that I am excluded from there newtork - which my PC does not seek to join. My network displays a circling arrows graphic which indicates that I am connected to it.
The B G & N indicate the capacity and speed of the network. My Router supplies a 150 MBPS signal of 96% quality dB; and alternates channels (microfrequencies) on the 2.4GHZ radio frequency according to radio interference. The wireless permits me to operate and connect to the internet w/o a wire connecting to the COMCAST modem - allowing me to move a computer away from a wire connection to another room.
The NETGEAR ROUTER WNR 1000 v2 is suplied by COMCAST at no charge; and it and the PC wirelsss adaptor both have firewalls which bar penetration by SCANS unwanted joinders etc.
Only a computer response by me at the PC permits another computer wirelss connection to the network. COMCAST's "gateway" household internet connection also is firewalled and requires special security to use the COMCAST ISP for the WWW.
Periodically "N" networks wirelss will bounce off each other as they adjust their spacing in neighborhoods & apartments. The range is approxiamtely 300 ft & 150 feet through walls depending on sensitivity of equipment.
A furhter demo of the excellent wireless combo is available at www.airlink.com (cf the AirLink 101 PCI Adaptor) & www.netgear.com (see home Routers WNR 1000 v2). Comcast's cost to you is shipping charge only if you are a COMCAST BroadBand customer.
This connection is my home system only; not a general public service node.
Men build a monitoring site for desert locusts at the Monitoring and Control Centre in Qardho, Puntland State, Somalia, on 12 November 2020. FAO in Somalia is continuously upscaling its facilities to help mitigate against the effects of desert locust on local communities. FAO in Somalia’s desert locust support activities help local pastoralists and farmers to save their crops from the insect infestations.
