These speakers have a rather funny story behind them, but they are fantastic. Right now they're hooked up to the media centre stuff, but they will eventually become studio monitors hooked up to my computer at some point. I don't have the desk space right now.

I'm still kicking myself that i didn't go back to rescue this monitor from that skip. I bet it still worked - and i could've done with a spare monitor...
Varanus salvadorii is a monitor lizard found in New Guinea. It is also known by the common names Salvadori's monitor, Crocodile monitor, Papua(n) monitor, and Artellia.[4] The largest monitor lizard in New Guinea, it is believed to be one of the longest lizards in the world, reaching up to 244 cm (8.01 ft). It is the sole member of the subgenus Papusaurus. V. salvadorii 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[by whom?] 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 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"; yet the tribesman maintain that the monitor gives warnings if there are crocodiles nearby.
Many thanks to - " Edward Jude Photography " for the correction in name for this lizard :)
Solar powered speed monitor to keep us in check.. I have to admit it works.. 34 Kph is pretty unusual for Montrealers...

Naval Reservist Boatswains Mate Second Class Petty Officer (DV) Stacey Stickney of Buckhannon, WV, assigned to Mobile Diving and Salvage Unit Reserve detachment 507, combs through the engine room of the USS Monitor for artifacts during salvage operations off the coast of Cape Hatteras, NC. 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.

Water monitors can be defensive, using their tail, claws, and jaws when fighting. They are excellent swimmers, using the raised fin located on their tails to steer through water. Water Monitors are carnivores, and have a wide range of foods. They are known to eat fish, frogs, rodents, birds, crabs, and snakes.[1] They have also been known to eat turtles, as well as young crocodiles and crocodile eggs[4] Like the Komodo Dragon, they will often eat carrion.[1]

After the end of the Vinnish Civil War in 1871, ironclad warships had proven themselves the new face of naval warfare technology. In particular, monitors were favored by the northern Verein for their revolving turrets and idea capability for patrolling rivers and coastal areas. In the years following the war, the remaining Vinnish navy fell behind as the government allocated more resources into national expansion and reconstruction. A sudden encounter with Maian ironclads off the southern Vinnish coast in 1876 soon brought attention to the need for rapid naval re-armament.
The department of the navy re-examined the monitor as an effect combat vessel. The navy had several civil war era vessels still lying around in somewhat derelict condition, and funds were allocated for their reconstruction into modern fighting ships. Work began first on Reiner, named after the 17th century religious movement (we don't know why, all of the monitors have strange names). The original hull was stripped of its turrets and funnel, which were scrapped, and a new superstructure was built on top with two new 12" gun turrets and many smaller 6pdr guns, 1pdr guns, and autocannons. The old wrought iron armor was replaced with modern Harvey steel, the best available at the time. In all, Reiner essentially was reborn into a new vessel, being commissioned in 1891. Being a monitor in the new age of battleships, however, presented some drawbacks. The low freeboard and short range of the vessel essentially barred it from being an oceanic fighter, being limited to the coasts, rivers, and fair weather. However, there have been several cases of wily captains daring to prove otherwise, taking their ships across oceans to far flung ports where no one would ever expect a monitor. The ships of the Reiner class are also infamously poorly ventilated, which has led to some unfortunate casualties due to heat exhaustion. This may also be a factor in the corrosion of the ship's armored piping, which has led to reliability issues and safety hazards during excercises.
Despite these drawbacks, the Reiner-class monitors have proven multiple times that under the right conditions and under a skilled crew, these vessels can far exceed their limitations, and have proven themselves an invaluable asset in the modern Vinnish navy.

Kenneth Grange is a highly influential designer of the latter half of the c20th.
In 1972 Grange, together with Alan Fletcher, Theo Crosby, Colin Forbes and Mervyn Kurlansky established Pentagram, a world renowned multi-disciplinary design consultancy. More recently, in the 1990s, Grange has produced distinctive designs that have become part of our landscape, from the Adshel bus shelter in 1993 to the Rural Post box for Royal Mail in 1998. Today Grange continues to work with British companies including Anglepoise, furniture designer Hitch Mylius and fashion designer Margaret Howel. [from the Design Museum's website]
