Maureen Alai, Ron Baskett and Matthew Simpson of the National Atmospheric Release Advisory Center (NARAC) at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory monitor gases emitted from Kilauea, the youngest and southeastern most volcano on the Big Island of Hawaii. Kilauea originally erupted in 1983 and continues to spew gases and magma. NARAC provides tools and services that map the probable spread of hazardous material -- nuclear, radiological, chemical, biological or natural emissions -- accidentally or intentionally released into the atmosphere. The center provides atmospheric plume predictions in time for an emergency manager to decide if taking protective action is necessary to protect the health and safety of people in affected areas.

I was hiking (with Dave, Ken, and two guards) to a site we suspect has archeological significance (more later on that) and we saw a large lizard monitoring our approach. It ducked into a cave several feet tall, and we could only see the tip of it's tail.
We finished our hike and circled back around. He (based on size, didn't get close enough to lift the skirt) darted back in the cave, but we managed to get a couple shots of him.
He's probably a Bengal Monitor, based on the region. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varanus_bengalensis
Finally got the promised flat screen monitor at work. Surprisingly, the old wooden chair is more comfortable than the rolly executive computer chair I was using.
I just got a great deal from the Dell Outlet on a refurb'ed monitor. It arrived this afternoon, and now I can start paying my Dell Support Dues.
The yellow page says:
IMPORTANT NOTICE!
DVI, VGA, USB, Power, or DisplayPort Cables have not been included with this replacement display.
Please retain the cables received with the original display
But this isn't a replacement display. It's a refurbished product and should come with the appropriate cables. And it did come with three cables: the three you see here, and a white booklet full of legalese in 2 languages. The problem is that one of the power cables ought to be a DVI cable.
I spent 47:06 on the phone with Dell telling four representatives about this. Each one acted like they had never heard of my case before, and did not have a CRM system to read the notes entered by the previous rep. The third rep kept insisting that the parts would all have P/N part numbers on them. Perhaps they do - invisible ones. She also insisted that since the bar code numbers on the two power cables have different numbers, they must not both be power cables. She asked me to verify that one of them wasn't really a DVI cable. Then she transferred me to the 4th person, who got my information (again) then told me she would put me on hold for 1-2 minutes. Instead she put me on hold for 3-4 minutes of silence at the end of which I got a dial tone. I don't know if they lost my call or if I'd just used up my daily quota of DELL or what.

It is quite handy to have two monitors because you can have several applications open at the same time without overlapping windows. On the other hand, it can be a challenge too, especially to keep track which programme has the focus and to find the mouse pointer, which is always on the screen where you don't expect it to be.
ODC - Theme (08-11-2012): Your daily challenge
Here is the desktop that goes along with this: www.flickr.com/photos/brianconnolly/3270543366/
Desktop is two dual-monitor Windows XP machines running Synergy. Far right monitor is PuTTY Tray running fullscreen.
I know my Foobar setup is ugly. Don't judge me.
Also since I don't have a PRO account anymore I guess it won't let me show the fullview of the screenshot. I guess I'll just host it on my own site and link it here which is quite possibly the most caveman way to use this site. It's like I'm back using Geocities again and hand-editing html files to get around showing the forced banner ads. What year is this.
Freckled monitor
Scientific Name: Varanus tristis
The freckled monitor is beautifully patterned, with rows of white ocelli (eye shaped circles) with dark centres, covering its back. The base colour varies from red-brown to light grey-brown and black. Spotted patterning can occur at the start of the tail but the end of the tail is usually black. The monitor is a slender goanna, growing to lengths of 80 centimetres, although over half the length comprises the tail.
Habitat:
Freckled monitors are found across mainland Australia, particularly drier areas and grassy woodlands. They are arboreal (tree dwelling) but spend a lot of time foraging on the ground, especially around rocky areas. They are a wary monitor and repeatedly return to burrows, rock crevices and tree hollows for shelter.
Diet:
Small lizards, birds, eggs, and insects, especially grasshoppers. The monitor is an opportunistic eater whose diet will vary according to what’s available. The freckled monitor has also been observed ambushing its prey.
Locusts can be seen covering the ground in Ceel-Gaal village, in Salal region, Somaliland.
Locusts are harmless when solitary, but become voracious when they congregate in groups and become more abundant.

This Monitor Lizard was right by the side of the path, scratching amongst the undergrowth. It was unconcerned by a growing number of people who stopped to watch it.
