... GPS technology is helping indigenous people map the land they call home and produce documents that can help preserve their access to the forest that is their lifeblood.
This isn't about traffic cameras, but it does point out that there are towns that do rely on traffic tickets as a way to fund the local government. One town in the article was cleaning up.
Hi, I just join the Factory. I have a brand new Garming nuvi 2595 with the most recent update from garmin and want to add Red Light Cameras to it. How can I do that?, anyone can help???!!!
You've probably made model houses out of popsicle sticks with your children. This man made a model of the entire city of San Francisco . And he decided to use toothpicks. He used more than 100,000 toothpicks, and it took 35 years to build. Not only is it huge, you can take tours using little plastic balls. Prepare to be amazed. Click below:
A neighbor sent me the link to this video of a Bugatti Veyron Super Sport traveling 431kph (267mph). I cannot imagine traveling at that speed on the ground. The fastest ground speed I have attained in a car is 114mph and that was in a former colleagues Z28 back in the late 1980's.
Can anyone from the area tell me if they're still using the mobile camera on I95 in Ridgeland ?

We are recognising D-Moo70 for his continued work maintaining the files for the Royal Canadian Legion Branches, all of which have been updated in the last month! He also recently took over the Winners-Canada files.
By popular request we are also recognising Bear007 for going above and beyond to help another user resolve an issue.
Not sure where/how to address this - just downloaded TD Green Machines in Ontario - all it is is TD Green Machines in Toronto,Ontario rather than the whole province.
Friendly reminding..

Where else but the City of Chicago would one expect is see wasted $$$$
Chicago’s Department of Aviation blew at least $171,000 on GPS-equipped cell phones and vehicles with tracking devices that either did not work or were never used, the inspector general concluded Thursday.
I have setup my wireless network, and things are working mostly well, but I feel as though I am about 80-90% there (feel free to correct me if I am more optimistic than I thought!)
Just want to take this opportunity to wish all of the people in our Nation's heartland that were affected by the tornadoes God Speed. Please be careful and stay safe. You all will be in our thoughts and prayers!
