"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.

MONITORS

Playing games using multiple monitors provides a way to organize specific elements of gameplay onto separate screens. You may wish to have your inventory, stats, maps or other useful information on one screen and the actual game play on the other. Before setting up your gaming for multiple monitors, its important to ensure that your computer's hardware supports a second monitor. If it doesn't, purchasing a new graphics card normally makes it possible to add a second or even third monitor. Of course, you also need to choose games that support the use of multiple monitors.

 

Installing a Second Monitor

 

Make sure that your graphics card supports dual monitors. You'll know by looking at the back of the computer. If there are two or more ports for a monitor then you can simply plug the second monitor in, with the computer shut off, and then start the computer. If the card does not support multiple monitors then you'll need to purchase a new graphics card that has a dual-link graphics card before playing. Installation of a new graphics card usually only takes a few minutes. Just turn off and unplug the computer, open the computer casing and remove the old graphics card. Usually, you'll need to use a Philips screwdriver to release the graphics card from the computer. Then, just slide the new graphics card in place. Don't force the card in; it should slide in easily. Secure the new card and then close the computer case. Once you've done that, simply plug in the monitors and start your system.

 

Once the computer has started up, go to the display options on your system. Some graphics cards split the computer over two screens, while others have a primary and secondary monitor setup. For computers that use primary and secondary monitors, choose your main monitor and set it as the primary one. The primary monitor will have your desktop, icons and anything else that would appear if you had just a single monitor. The secondary monitor provides space for you to drag items off the primary monitor.

 

Purchasing Monitors

 

Check the screen resolution of your current monitor and the overall size of the monitor. Monitor sizes are measured diagonally from one corner of the screen to the other. By choosing monitors of the same size and resolution, you'll avoid problems with flickering and screen freezes while playing the game. If the computer has to work with multiple screen resolutions, the game play will suffer. If you have the money, it's not a bad idea to purchase two of the same monitor. You can always try to trade the old monitor in, pawn it or sell it.

 

Games Without Dual Monitor Support

 

There are several reasons to use a second monitor even if the game you are playing doesn't support multiple monitors. For instance, you could have a game walk-through on one monitor and the game play on the other. Multiple monitors are interesting to use; generally, you need to drag any items you want across the screen and on to the other monitor. You can test this by moving your mouse from the edge of the monitor on the right to the edge of the monitor on the left. You'll notice that when the screen ends on the first monitor, the mouse keeps moving over to the second monitor. You can drag word documents, Internet pages, videos or whatever else you want over to the second monitor to view while playing. You could even let another member of your family watch a movie on the computer while you silence the noise in your game and keep playing.

 

Games With Dual Monitor Support

 

If the game does support dual monitors then you'll have to go through the list of features to set up the monitor the way you want. You'll need to know your current monitor resolution for this. If the monitor resolution is set at 1900 x 1200, then choose that option. If the game supports stretching the entire game over two images, you'll see an option for a "wide" screen setup. Typically, thesesetups will have a low second number and a high first number. For instance, two monitors with a screen resolution of 1900 x 1200 would have a combined screen real estate of 3800 x 1200. For games that support this sort of resolution, use the combined totals from both your monitors. This is why having two monitors with the same resolution and same size provides the greater benefit.

 

Alternatives to New Graphics Cards

 

While not the preferred method of gaming with multiple monitors, you can purchase a port adapter to plug in more than one monitor. To do this, you'll need to purchase the port adapter and attach it to the back of your computer's monitor port. This divides the port into two or more outputs that you can plug more than one monitor into. If you are going this route, make sure that you have plenty of RAM and a fast CPU. Normally, a dual-link graphics card would provide a suitable amount of RAM and processing power to power multiple monitors. Single monitor graphics cards normally don't have enough video memory to support two computer monitors. So, in this case, you'll need additional memory.

Note: I grew up pretty landlocked in one of the biggest city in the world (Mexico City), but from a young age I’ve always had a keen love for animals and the ocean. Since my undergraduate degree I’ve used any opportunity available, whether it was an internship or assisting other students/professors in research or working at a zoo, to help me gain as many skills as possible to be where I’m at as a research scientist for FWC. I believe that through passion and eagerness to work hard and learn as much as possible in the field of science, we can achieve so much and contribute new knowledge in the scientific realm. I’m hoping to use the skills I gain everyday and my personal goals to help our community and our environment to live in harmony. I also hope we can continue supporting and paving the way of future women scientists.

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.

My cat Tara was totally enthralled by my new monitor. She even followed the mouse around the screen.

The Ornate Nile Monitor usually grows to a maximum length of 6 feet which is slightly shorter than the Nile Monitor. This Lizard has 3 - 5 rows of light coloured markings on its back, compared to 6 – 9 on the dominant Nile Monitor. These markings are cream-coloured or yellow. They also have light-coloured tail bands. The colours fade as the animal mature but are still prominent. Ornate Monitors have a pink tongue whereas the Nile Monitor has a bluish-black tongue. Nile Monitors, like all monitors, use there throat pouch to breathe. By pumping their pouch, they force air into their diaphram, letting them stay active for long periods of time without becoming tired. They have acute eyesight and can even distinguish between people by vision alone. They can spot potential prey, enemies and mates from far away and, like all monitors, see in colour, being able to distinguish more colours than humans. Their most remarkable sense is that of smell. Their probing tongue picks up scent particles from the air, the ground, or another surface, and presses these against a special organ on the roof of their mouths that analyzes the odors collected. Because the tongue is forked, the two tines can pick up scent gradients, and allow the monitor to know which direction the scent is strongest. They use their remarkable sense of smell to find prey, track mates, keep tabs on their neighbors, and warn them of approaching predators. A monitor's sense of hearing is not nearly so acute as that of most people, however. While they are quite sensative to low to mid frequencies, their rage of hearing is nowhere near so broad of that of mammals. They react to sounds in a very different way than mammals - loud sounds that would startle a mammal may be completely ignored by a monitor even though they can hear the sound quite clearly. If they learn to associate a sound with food, however, they will pay close attention when they hear it.

The lizard is known as Bis-cobra in western India, Guishaap or Goshaap in West Bengal and Bangladesh, and as ghorpad in Maharashtra.

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.

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.
