Where is a good place to get a Mississippi map turtle in the Los Angeles area?

Posted on February 28th, 2010 by admin in area maps | 1 Comment »

I have a res and I’m looking to get a Mississippi map since I’ve talked to a number of people who have had a lot of success keeping the two species together. Does anyone know where to get maps in tge LA area?

I am the good shepherd. A good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
A hired man, who is not a shepherd and whose sheep are not his own, sees a wolf coming and leaves the sheep and runs away, and the wolf catches and scatters them.
This is because he works for pay and has no concern for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd, and I know mine and mine know me,
just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I will lay down my life for the sheep.
I have other sheep that do not belong to this fold. These also I must lead, and they will hear my voice, and there will be one flock, one shepherd.

On Google Maps, when you press the button to see the area on street view……..?

On Google Maps, when you press the button to see the area on street view, does it show what is on the stret at the very moment, or is it what was on the street at some other time?

My question basicly is does the images change every second or do they change hourly etc.?

The pictures are taken once.

A car with 8 cameras in a circle on top of a pole drives up and down every street possible and the cameras take a circular picture every few feet. Each picture is saved with it’s location.

There’s pictures of some of the cars.

Does any one know where I can get a map of the total area devestated by the bubonic plague?

I have found maps telling me what major cities were devastated, where it came from and dates. But I need a detailed map, with the rough total area that was effected. If any one can suggest one thank you.
Such as population loss, dates of when it hit. All that. I already seem the Wikipedia map I want to know if there is another map out there.

lucky old Scotland not getting it until 1350

Sounds what you really need is something like this though:

http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dvbid/plague/world98.htm

except that is dated 1970 onwards…

This page does have some information about the plague originating in central asia and being spread by the new trade routes created by the mongol empire:

How big is 40 mi2 in area on a world map scale?

Posted on February 22nd, 2010 by admin in area maps | 1 Comment »

I play this game where the map is 40 mi2 in area, i am wondering how big that is in real, im aware its not big but im just wanting to find out what i can compare it to e.g.. an island etc…Has anybody got any island/place names or maps that are 40 mi2 in area so i can compare to?

Thank you

Your game map is 4 miles by 8 miles.

It is just a bit over the island of Montserrat, a British territory in the Caribbean;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montserrat
Type it in on Google Maps/Earth and you’ll see the island.
Rhode Island is 38 times larger than Montserrat.

Your game map is also 3mi2 larger than the total island of Manhattan.

Note the size of ships and bridges.

How to paste map in ppt so that only the map is seen without edges of copied area?

Posted on February 14th, 2010 by admin in area maps | 2 Comments »

The copied as I paste it on ppt shows areas beyond the edges of map area. I want to show only the map and not any additional area beyond map. How it is possible? Hope I could explain what I want.

open the impage in Paint….remove the edges or color them to the same as the background in the slide…save the image…..then insert the map into your PowerPoint presentation slide.

Go see your city clerk, They have the lists as they are charged with getting them to the wards before elections.

How do I create a map area with CSS?

Posted on February 2nd, 2010 by admin in area maps | 2 Comments »

I have an image loaded into the background with text on it and I’m trying to make a link for the text. The text is part of the image. Is there a way to map coordinates using CSS?

That isn’t done with CSS, but with an HTML / XHTML trick, the image map. Here’s how it works…

<img src = "map.gif" map = "#myMap" alt = "map" />
<map id = "myMap">
<area shape = "rect"
coords = "0, 0, 100, 100"
href = "http://www.google.com"
alt = "google"></area>
</map>

This example makes the upper left corner of your image act as a link to google.com.

However, the image map trick isn’t really designed for background images, but for creating hot spots in images created with the <img> tag.

It sounds like you want to create your entire page as a huge graphic and simply make parts of it clickable, to avoid doing the layout work in HTML and CSS. This is possible through absolute positioning and JavaScript, but it’s really not a good idea.

It’s actually easier to just do things the right way and build your links as anchors. You can position them absolutely if you wish, but it’s better to have as much of your content as possible in plain text. This makes it easier to modify, easier for search engines, and much smaller to download than image-based sites.

Hope this helps…
