Found along the Western Ghats, live in the trees.  They are masters at camouflaging their bodies, and if they dont move its almost impossible to find them.

Here is the lizard in better detail..

To make it a little more obvious..

1. A human being is a part of the whole, called by us Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest-a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole nature in its beauty.

2. Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding.

3. The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.

4. What I see in Nature is a magnificent structure that we can comprehend only very imperfectly, and that must fill a thinking person with a feeling of humility. This is a genuinely religious feeling that has nothing to do with mysticism.

5. The further the spiritual evolution of mankind advances, the more certain it seems to me that the path to genuine religiosity does not lie through the fear of life, and the fear of death, and blind faith, but through striving after rational knowledge.

6. A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual death.”
- Martin Luther King Jr.

7. Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.
Buddha

8. Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is.
Bhagwat Gita

9. When I do good, I feel good; when I do bad, I feel bad. That’s my religion.
Abraham Lincoln

10. The only test of good things is that they make us strong.
Vivekananda

11. Is it not tremendously blasphemous to believe against reason? What right have we not to use the greatest gift that God has given to us? I am sure God will pardon a man who will use his reason and cannot believe, rather than a man who believes blindly instead of using the facilities He has given him.
Vivekananda

12. We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.
Vivekananda

13. The first sign of your becoming religious is that you are becoming cheerful.
Vivekananda

14. This I have seen in life, he who is overcautious about himself falls into dangers at every step; he who is afraid of losing honor and respect, gets only disgrace; he who is always afraid of loss always losses.
Vivekananda

15. In judging others we always judge them by our own ideals. That is not as it should be. Everyone must be judged according to his own ideal, and not by that of anyone else.
Vivekananda

16. The first act of true teaching must be that the teaching should not contradict reason.
Vivekananda

17. In wealth is the fear of poverty, in knowledge the fear of ignorance,in beauty the fear of age, in fame the fear of backbiters, in successthe fear of jealousy, even in body is the fear of death. Everything inthis earth is fraught with fear. He alone is fearless who has given upeverything.
Vivekananda

18. An eye for eye only ends up making the whole world blind.
Gandhi

19. Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
Gandhi

20. As long as you derive inner help and comfort from anything, keep it.
Gandhi

21. You must be the change you want to see in the world.
Gandhi

22. That knowledge which purifies the mind and heart alone is true knowledge, all else is only a negation of knowledge.
Ramakrishna

23. If you chase two rabbits, you will not catch either one.
Russian Proverb

24. Some people walk in the rain, others just get wet.
Roger Mille

25. A man is rich in proportion to the number of things he can afford to let alone.
Henry David Thoreau

26. That man is richest whose pleasures are the cheapest.
Henry David Thoreau

27. This world is but a canvas to our imaginations.
Henry David Thoreau

28. The obscure we see eventually. The completely obvious, it seems, takes longer.
Edward R. Murrow

29. If you judge people, you have no time to love them. Mother Teresa

Stress makes us old before our time. If the job has you stressed out, consider bringing some stress balls to work. Maybe a custom cooler with healthy snacks and beverages will help take the edge off your day. You could even find logo products with your favorite stress busting slogans on them. Don’t worry, be healthy!

Our good pal Hillary sure seems like she has lots of rich friends and a good deal of campaigning horsepower. But yet in the Iowa Caucus, she came in 3rd and in overall delegate totals she is behind Senator Obama. So sure she has won a few in New Hampshire and Nevada, but where the rubber hits the road, with her husbands continued popularity and all that star power behind her, she is still coming up second best.

This got me to thinking, being a techie and all…whats happening in the tech world where the hype is greatly outweighed by the actual users and results. Welcome Microsoft Vista. Microsoft would lead you to believe that 88 million copies of Vista have been sold to rave reviews like the ones here, here and of course here.

Microsoft’s marketing machine has to be one of the largest in the world, pour 500+ million dollars into the marketing of Windows Vista. How many of these copies of Vista are actually users who WANT it or are forced to settle with it when they purchase a new PC. Kinda like buying a car you are stuck with the ugley steering wheel, like it or not.

MS wants you to believe Vista is the greatest thing since Windows 95, but don’t trust them. What do the users have to say on the matter. Oh the fun doesn’t end there. People are now so upset at Windows Vista, there are guides on how to downgrade to XP and even better Dell selling new PC’s with XP again. Hmm something isn’t right.

This article isn’t bash piece of Senator Clinton or MS Vista, as I applaud the Senetor in the work she is doing and the movement she has started –but a look at the actual product. No matter how much marketing money you spend, if the product isn’t a good one—or if the benefits aren’t any better then what you already have, no one will vote for or purchase your product. Having money and doing great marketing your product, is great, but if the product is faulty, its money not well spent.

It’s been a wild week of anticipation for Apple fans. As the Digg Macworld countdown counts down at the top of the homepage, I constantly reload the Apple section (both popular and upcoming) for any glimmer of rumor or, dare I say it, confirmed news. Sadly, the rumors are all based on photoshopped educated guesses and the only confirmed news thus far has been the always vague banner erected pre-maturely just to give the fanboys something to decode/fap over.

The wait for confirmed news is over.

I have it from a very good source that Steve Jobs is going to wear a black shirt and blue jeans tomorrow. I can’t reveal how I know this source or how close they are to Apple HQ, but I’d bet my kids’ college money if I could find a bookie willing to take a wager on a keynote wardrobe. My source has revealed to me that the shirt will be a polycotton blend and the blue jeans will be held up by the skill of a tailor- not a belt.

The most surprising wardrobe news? Apparently there’s somethings in the air at Macworld: Steve’s balls. No underwear for this CEO. That’s about as 2007 as ethernet ports and optical drives.
