"Google Maps with My Location - Non-GPS Solution" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-10-12 12:43:58

Google has rolled out a beta for its Google Maps Mobile that allows anyone with a select set of phones to use Google Maps on that phone and get their location. The technology isn’t relying on GPS signals but instead relying on its mapping and understanding of mobile phone towers. The software will still pull in GPS signals if your phone has them. In pulling it up this morning on my phone. I was able to get the new 2.0 version of the application (go to www google com/gmm) and about 10 seconds after the maps loaded on the screen there I was – a little blue dot on the screen. The only problem is that I was set as an “Approximate Location to within 1700 meters”. Ouch – not bad in the country but let’s see later what it’s like in the city. Just for reference. I can pull up my location on a GPS +/- about 10 feet. The other issue is that for a while it was jumping around presumably as it found itself associated with different cell towers. Hey it’s a beta and I’ll take it for now. Update: Just as bad int he city. Sitting in downtown Boston. I get Location within 1700 meters.... and that covers most of downtown; from Cheers all the way to Southie and from the Aquarium way into the Back Bay. Good luck getting directions that make sense there. In other news. …… wow. Came straight to this page? Visit for all the latest news. Want to share this post with others? and. Posted by Scott Martin at November 29. 2007 7:04 AM accuracy is probably dependant upon your Wireless provider and to what tower detail they provide to google. Results will likely vary from provider to provider. Posted by: derek at January 15. 2008 4:43 PM Please press Post only once. Submission of comments takes up to 20 seconds because of Spam Filtering.

"The Masonic Temple" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-17 16:11:57

I recently had the opportunity to visit with account McElligott and Giovanni Lombardo just outside London. I was on my way home from Riyadh. Saudi Arabia a 24 hour pip and I decided to kill two birds with one stone. Give myself a break in the desire flight and visit with two brothers whom I cherish dearly. While I was there. account took Giovanni and I to Saxon Hall. This building is a former industrial building that was purchased gutted and renovated as a masonic edifice. I write edifice deliberately because it is not a hit lodge or change surface lodgeroom. This edifice houses over 50 masonic lodges in two big lodgerooms and two smaller lodgerooms. It is a beautiful renovation with two full bars two lounges a two full dinning rooms an awesome kitchen facility and all the accouterments you would expect to find in a class operation. You will find pictures below. So why do I mention this? Well in American Masonry there is a tendency for every single lodge to try to have its own building. In the masonic govern where I live there are four lodges. Two of them are within 3 kilometers (just over two miles) apart and both of these two are struggling with membership issues and to act their officer lines complete. These two lodges would in my opinion be better served by if not consolidating into a single dwell at least sharing the facilities in one of the buildings. I have my own opinion about which building but that is not relative here so I will keep it to myself. This is not a rare case. Most US lodges seem to want to have their own buildings and that is a good thing. In California most gold towns had a Masonic dwell which often served as the city center/city hall/town hall/meeting hall.. and often tavern. You can comfort travel the length and breadth of California and see these grand buildings with the square and compass on them and a cornerstone set proudly. The cost of living the spread of cities urban sprawl and the population flight from downtown to suburbia has wrought many changes and as a result of those changes and the temporary decline in masonic membership (which is even now turning around) have resulted in many of these buildings being sold. Another result of these changes is it is very expensive to maintain a lodge in the downtown areas. One lodge in my govern was in downtown Riverside until the early 1970's until the county of Riverside in its infinite wisdom decided to condemn the masonic lodge so they could create a new courthouse complex. And so the lodge.

"Ski Whistler from a cozy mountain lodge" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-09 16:28:40

is a vacation rental company that specializes in. This means that their inventory is ameliorate for skiing Whistler Blackcomb apply which is the official Alpine skiing venue for the 2010 Olympic Games - a testament to the quality of skiing there. Yes it's that good! is cheaper the more populate you are. Yes our cramped motel dwell was cheap as chips but also very uncomfortable with most of us crashing on the floor. Today. I'd pick something like the villa which has ski-in and ski-out and sleeps 8. This would end up being just over USD 170 per person for a week! Not much more than that hotel! See the picture on the right it's a very nice displace to crash after a day of snowboarding or skiing with friends.

"Parkside Lodge & Its Surroundings" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-21 14:19:58

measure week I was heading drink Parkside on my way to a meeting at the Arts and Crafts Style Parkside Lodge (built in 1914). As I passed the lodge I realized that one of the driveways leading upto the building was missing. So I parked on a side street and walked over to where the short maintenance road once was. Where once a road lay now a walking path stood surrounded by vibrant flowerbeds.. it was such a welcome transformation to see. As I walked further towards the dwell I found a series of flower baskets hanging from the old wood trellis in a very orderly and kempt make. This was not the Parkside Lodge that I remembered.. it now looked like something that would be found on a visit to Niagara on the Lake. Outside the lodge groundskeepers were busy watering the flowers and mowing the lawn and off to the right comfort sat the old stone quarry bridges that once marked an old quarry (since filled in). Of cover I could not back up but think of Chris69's repeated pleas to begin the excavation of the quarries - to eventually restore them to their original express. The tended grounds and the restored picnic and lawn bowling fields were such a sight to see that it was not hard to imagine what this section of the park must have looked like back at the turn of the century. Of course there was not a golf course bounding the edges of the quarry garden.. but the fact that the exploit bridges are still intact gives hope. I wonder what it would take to resuscitate Spire Head - a Calvert Vaux designed gazebo that overlooked Hoyt Lake? Well that's for another day... The inside of Parkside Lodge is equally impressive. The old-world characteristics have been maintained quite nicely. change surface the wood floor remains pitted from the thousands of spiked lawn bowling shoes that have walked across its surface. This is where the headquarters for the Olmsted Parks Conservancy can be open. It's also where much of the historic Olmsted memorabilia is kept in antique wood and glass display cases - dated and framed park photos ribbons trophies etc. This lodge is a treasure in itself and one that we are lucky comfort remains after so many unquestionable years. It is an asset to the public since the lodge is suitable for rental - especially now that the lawn bowling clubs are starting to find their way back to this sanctuary after so many absent years. To learn more about the Parkside Lodge and how you can help the Olmsted Parks Conservancy to keep and restore our parks gratify visit their website. and no disbelieve people would sho up with shovels in hand if asked to volunteer to go away the digging up of that quarry. the entire focus of 2007 has been to replace our forest canopy with new plantings after the 2006 storm. Lets wish these issues take center stage in 2008 along with dredging the South Park Lake and its restoration (another great olmstead park story). PS there was a intend by the Science Museum to be over the Kensington and expand the Science Museum and Humboldt lay across the Kensington which would alter a great story. also does anyone remember the fairgrounds which is not hamlin park. Well take a look at the distance between Cazenovia Park and Humboldt. One reason why the eastside struggles so much could be the denial of an Olmstead lay. Rebuilding the Fairgrounds on idle arrive somewhere between Cazenovia and Humboldt would be a great story to investigate. I pass the lodge nearly every day but have never seen anyone bowling on the lawns. I've been wanting to start a Petanque club (which in simple terms is the French version of Bocce no walls are needed) since I moved here and that would be a perfect displace for such gatherings. For some reason I thought the lodge was just a maintenance facility. anticipate it's time to knock on the door and see what the possibilities are. Now if they would only scrap the golf course. That meadow should be filled with picnicking families kite-flyers,and sunbathers every day of the pass. As come up a yearly Central Park/Simon and Garfunkel styled major fundraiser concert would suit the space just perfectly. PLEASE NOTE:A Lawn Bowling is NOT a Bocce court. Bocce is meant to be played on clay crushed kill or sand. Lawn Bowling & hit are meant to be played on putting greens. When you throw a weighted ball through the air it dents the turf. Obviously a hundred dents on a lawn court will destroy the path of a rolling ball. Considerable money has gone into renovating the lawn courts back to their original intention After being granted the opportunity to tour the renovated Guaranty Building. I called Hodgson Russ to see if President/CEO Gary Schober (photo below) was available for an interview. As luck would have it. Gary was on his way back into town so we met up last week to talk about the events that led up to the law firm’s integral investment in the city’s architectural cache. “I’ve never done a communicate desire this before,” he confessed to me. “At this point it’s tough to … Does cow's future revolve around progressive alternative energy sources? That could be the inspect.. actually that should be the case. Just look at the recent awards given to The Church (Babeville) and the Darwin Martin House. Both projects have been recognized time and measure again for their use of geothermal heating and cooling in the affect of restoring the historic landmarks. Now people are wondering if this was a two-shot deal or will Buffalo become known for even more pro … Monday night a group of BR's readers and staffers gathered at Nektar for a few drinks some banh mi and great conversation. Fun was had by all! We love to mingle with readers those that we've known for a long measure and those we've never met before. We hope they had as much fun as we did. The winning Fantasy Foodball item was served up by Nektar with their own twist. Their take on banh mi was interesting the main flavor came from the addition of Korean kimchi to what is a Vi … cow is a choice. That is my current thesis. I have been pondering this for some time and the more I consider it the more that it seems true. I have witnessed many friends over the past few years as we all do get to follow go paths in other cities. I wish them well and hope that they find what they are looking for wherever they decide that they need to act to bring home the bacon that goal. Often. I comprehend how they miss cow and how they wish they could come back. Buffa …
