I just can't help myself. I promise the monitor's been put back in the box and I won't fiddle with it until I get it home.
The 17" flat panel in this picture is to give a general size comparison. Sorry about using your gear, Mike, but it was all in the name of science.

Varanus niloticus
A juvenile found basking along a waterway in south Florida. These large, diurnal predators have become established in south Florida.
Monitor lizards are generally large reptiles, although some can be as small as 20 centimetres (7.9 in) in length. They have long necks, powerful tails and claws, and well-developed limbs. Most species are terrestrial, but arboreal and semiaquatic monitors are also known. Almost all monitor lizards are carnivorous, although Varanus bitatawa, Varanus mabitang and Varanus olivaceus are also known to eat fruit. They are oviparous, laying from seven to 37 eggs, which they often cover with soil or protect in a hollow tree stump.
The various species of Varanus cover a vast area, occurring through Africa, the Indian subcontinent from Pakistan, India and Sri Lanka to China, down Southeast Asia to Indonesia, the Philippines, New Guinea, Australia and islands of the Indian Ocean, and South China Sea. There is also a large concentration of monitor lizards in Tioman Island in the Malaysian state of Pahang.

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.

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]

Commander Bobbie Scholley, commanding officer of Mobile Diving and Salvage Unit-Two, Little Creek, VA, pulls debris from the engine compartment of the USS Monitor. Scholley and other navy divers are working closely with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, (NOAA) in a joint venture to salvage the main engine from the wreck to be preserved and later displayed at the MarinerÕs museum in Newport News, VA. U.S. Navy 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 USS Monitor went down off the coast of Cape Hatteras, NC, in 1862 during a severe storm.

Made from pine (1”x 8”) and oak (1”x 8”) with a satin polyurethane finish. The oak vertical sides have a Shou Sugi Ban treatment with polyurethane to seal. 1”x 8” Pine boards joined with biscuit joiner and wood glue. Finished assembly completed with tapered wood screws (12) that have been counter sunk. Cut outs to accommodate cable ports in cubicle desk made in base.
Tools used: table saw, biscuit joiner, jig saw, electric drill, palm sheet sander (120 & 220 grit), pipe clamps, quick clamps, various drill bits, pencils, wax pencil, tape measure, metal rulers, speed square, propane torch, nylon scrub brush, paint brush
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.

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]

'monitor calibration image' On White
This is a monitor calibration image.
If the images in my photostream seem a little too dark or too light or the colours seem 'wrong' use this to re-adjust the colours on your monitor.
The colours in this image should appear natural ie in the skin tones and landscape, whilst all other colours should appear vibrant and nicely saturated, with pure whites.
The scale of white to grey at the bottom should show a full range in each square from pure white down to full black. You may need to adjust your monitor gamma as well as brightness and contrast and colours.
This will ensure that you are viewing my images as they were meant to be seen.
If you have a Macintosh, try typing 'monitor calibration' into the Help Center, this will point you to the built in calibration features.
On a Windows PC the facilities are found in the display control panel, or by right clicking the desktop and choosing 'properties'. You will probably need some third party software to generate a profile for your monitor since it is not included in Windows.
