Times Square NYC New Years Eve Ball Drop 2011 - 2012
Each year during the New Year's Eve celebration in Times Square in Manhattan New York City a time ball made by Waterford Crystal and electric lights is raised to the top of a pole on the One Times Square building at 6:00 pm and then lowered to mark the coming of the New Year. The ball descends 77 feet (23 m) over the course of a minute coming to rest at the bottom of its pole at midnight, then a sign with the digits of the new year lights up as the ball's lights turn off. Toshiba's Times Square billboard directly below the ball counts down to midnight as well.
Every year up to one million people gather in Times Square to watch the ball drop and an estimated 1 billion watch the video of the event, 100 million of them in the United States.
In 1904 The New York Times opens its new headquarters on Longacre Square (the city's second tallest building) and persuades the city to rename the triangular "square" for the newspaper. Owner Adolph Ochs initiates a massive celebration in the square for New Year's, which is so popular 200,000 came it permanently displaces the celebration from Trinity Church. There is no ball, but there are fireworks.
1907 Walter F. Palmer chief electrician for The Times creates the first New Year's Eve Ball in response to the behest of publisher Adolph Ochs to create some kind of spectacular midnight show that would draw attention to the Square. The New Year's Eve Ball first descended from a flagpole at One Times Square constructed with iron and wood materials with 100 25-watt bulbs weighing 700 pounds (320 kg) and measuring 5 feet (1.5 m) in diameter. At first it dropped 1 second after midnight.
In 2012 the tradition continues here is a look at Times Square New York City in December 2011 for the New Years Eve for the big 2011 ball drop celebration.

Due to a fault, my Sanwa monitor didn't work with arcade hardware, only PC-style kit. I built this circuit to rectify the problem (based on the circuit diagram and description here: www.tkk.fi/Misc/Electronics/faq/vga2rgb/scart.html). It was a PITA, but it worked.
Designed specifically for Reuters, this allows the keyboard to slot into the monitor.
Built in 1973
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]

Anchor Windlass Monitoring System
www.monitor-systems-engineering.com/anchor_monitoring_eng...
Monitor Systems computerised Anchor Windlass Monitoring System (AWS M2000) facilitates and adds real value to operator control. Using a uniquely simplified menu structure, the system provides increased accuracy and totally reliable measurement of anchor winch parameters with both central control room and local windlass monitoring displays. Speed and distance are measured through proximity sensors whilst tension is determined by sub-sea rated load cells or pins. Using stainless steel wall mounted cabinets, data is gathered using PLC DAQ, Profibus DP or fibre optic high-speed networks and shown in graphical and tabular formats. This flexible system can also be expanded to include other control functions required by the client.
Case Study
Anchor Windlass Monitoring System
Overview: The Anchor Winch Monitoring System installed onboard Dolphin Byford by Monitor Systems is designed to monitor anchor tension, chain length, payout speed and motor current in addition to providing control outputs for overspeed on all twelve winches holding the rig. Utilising a fibre optic network for communicating between winches and the control room, the system uses a Siemens PLC with remote HMI's in each windlass cab and two IPC's in the control room and pilot-house.
Two 300 tonnes load pins on the Brattvagg windlasses and hydraulic load cells with pressure transducers on the National windlasses measure anchor tension. Chain length and speed is verified by proximity sensors picking up targets on the main gypsy wheel.The system graphically displays tensions, speeds and chain lengths as well as providing trending of anchor tensions and built in alarm functions via colour touch screens in all winch cabs and the main control room. It also allows viewing of data from all winches at any station. Customer: Dolphin Drilling.

Technology is great because when left in an abandonment it's easy to tell how long it's been untouched. This factory/corporate headquarters closed at the end of the 1980's and they just stacked up monitors when they locked the doors.
If you happen to run dual monitors, here's a nice background for you. As a bonus, if you're running one 1024 pixel high screen, this also works nicely since Forrest is only jumping on the left hand side.
Happy Furry Friday!
Enjoy.

This Goulds Monitor was checking out hollows in a Grey Box tree on our property.
Really great to see that these are still quite common around our area.

De los diferentes animales salvajes que podemos fotografiar en la selva tropical, probablemente los reptiles sean los más fáciles, ya que podemos aproximarnos y nos dan tiempo a realizar los mínimos ajustes para la captura. De todas formas, esta iguana fue sorprendida en Manuel Antonio (Costa Rica) al elevar la cámara desde la roca donde yo estaba escondido.
