WASHINGTON, D.C. The Freer Gallery of Art is showing off two rare Bibles from its archives.
The Bibles, written in Greek and bought by art collector Charles Freer in the early 1900s, date from the third and fourth centuries. They are seldom shown because of their fragility and sensitivity to light.
The Bibles will be on display, though, through Feb. 16, 2014, in the Freer's Peacock Room. Normally on the third Thursday of each month, the museum opens the shutters for visitors to enjoy the ornate room, designed by James Whistler, in natural light. But the shutters won't be opened again until Feb. 20, after the Bibles have been removed.
One Bible, now known as the "Codex Washingtonensis," contains additional material, a logion, attached to the Gospel of Mark.
The "Freer logion" is attributed to Jesus and, according to a museum translation, says while "'other terrible things draw near,' Satan's power on earth is ended." This logion has not been found in any other version.
The discovery of this phrase caused much excitement and controversy among historians and ministers in 1912 when a scholar, professor Henry Sanders, published a piece about it. Clippings from the period showed a split between a popular enthusiasm regarding an undiscovered biblical fragment and skepticism from religious experts.
The Bibles were purchased from Al Arabi, an antiquities dealer in Giza who was probably working with an "opportunistic digger" that he paid for his findings, says Lee Glazer, associate curator of American Art at Freer Gallery.
Freer himself was suspicious of Al Arabi and his sources of antiques, according to his letters.
But he decided, Glazer says, he "would not benefit by probing into that too deeply. It's better for that to remain a secret."
She added, "These were totally unauthorized excavations, by the way. But it's not a problem for us because it happened a long time ago," prior the 1970s.
Glazer says the theory of the Bibles' origins "is that these manuscripts originated in a Greek monastery near Cairo, then were either removed from their site of production … either lost, buried, hidden, put somewhere else, and so the site of the find was probably different from the site of production."
The Bibles came into Freer's hands with sand amid their pages, discovered when they were unpacked from a shoebox at Freer's mansion in Detroit.
Freer had his experts restore them from their desiccated state and examine them for authenticity. When in Cairo, he had promised Al Arabi a gold watch if they were proven to be authentic; the next year, he returned to Egypt with the watch.

APALACHIN, N.Y. -- Hydrofracking was the hot issue at a town hall meeting with Congressman Tom Reed in Apalachin.
Concerned residents lashed out at the Congressman, saying why they feel hydrofracking is harmful to the community. They cited pollution, tainted water, and health issues as reasons why the government should not bring fracking to the area.
Congressman Tom Reed says he understands their fears, and supports safe and responsible drilling. He says shale gas will strengthen the economy.
Reed says, "This is an opportunity for jobs. It will put people back to work. Not only with the energy, getting it out of the ground, but putting people back to work, in regards to manufacturing. It represents our low cost power supply manufacturers. Those are generational type jobs."
Congressman Reed also held a town hall meeting in Horseheads on Saturday.

Minnesota is the 12th State to Legalize Gay Marriage.

Then lastly why in the hell hasn't Obama went harder on this issue. His wife got called out by an angry activist over that issue.
At this point we have states that just won't do it. Hell here in ca it went down. I voted to have it be legal by the way. The bad news was mormon money and black people being against it sent it to defeat. When religion and a racial voting block come together watch out. You won't win. I did go back and forth on gay marriage but now I am firmly in the all people should have the right to make the huge mistake of marriage. I just know somewhere there is a gay dude who said he would marry but its illegal. Now his mate is like OOOOH we can get married now its legal. The other dude is like damn I never really wanted to marry lol!
Anyways my point is trying to do something like this at the state level is as stupid as trying to make drugs legal in only a couple states. Or have arizona try and take over border control themselves, or do their own immigration policy.
Some things scream out load for Presidential leadership and a change of FEDERAL law. Its the only way to force some dude in Kentucky has never read a book to be forced to deal with it. Its not a Presidents job to follow the polls. I don't want a president that does that i want one who leads us and when we are wrong he changes our minds. Or if too many won't come along you force feed it to us.
Some things should be done at the states. I love states rights. But when it comes to who can marry the law should be set IMO at the federal level.
But...you know if some private church doesn't want to allow gays to marry there then that is up to them. Big deal go to a different church. But there is no way gay marriage makes its rounds without the feds busting up that defense of marriage ideal. Not sure if that was law? or what feds doing on this but IMO it has to happen there. This 15 states have done it crap will never get all the way through all 50.

Economic Education
The Free Silver Movement and Inflation
lesson (.pdf)
Students learn that money is a medium of exchange that facilitates economic activity. Next, students learn the relationship between the money supply and inflation by participating in an inflation auction using gold and silver notes to better understand the historic debate of the Free Silver Movement. Students then read William Jennings Bryan's "Cross of Gold" speech to relate the historical context. The students use historical data to calculate income, fixed expenses, and variable expenses of a farmer to further understand the historical argument presented by the Free Silver Movement. Finally, students analyze two political cartoons against the Free Silver Movement. This lesson includes primary source documents obtained from FRASER®.

6 National Parks You Haven't Been to but Should

I've gone through all the submissions you guys sent in. You all had some really fun ideas, and I enjoyed reading them! I've picked out a bunch of them that really jumped out at me, and just absolutely made me want to draw them up, so that's what I'm going to be working on today. Hopefully by this evening I'll be able to post a poll and start voting!
HoN Heroes UpdateFriday, August 5, 2011 | 03:19 PM | by
HoN Heroes Contest: Time to Vote!Friday, August 5, 2011 | 10:00 PM | by
Ok! I've finally narrowed it down to my favorite eight Hero ideas, and sketched them up to give you a little visual along with the concept. These are just starting points, and whichever Hero gets chosen will likely go through a number of redesigns before it gets into Heroes of Newerth. Additionally, the ideas for their abilities are in no way guaranteed to make it into the game.
Groth and Bindle are a pair of orc brawlers. The player controls both, though they activate and fight as one unit. Bindle is used as the weapon in their special abilities, usually getting tossed and hurled around as a cannonball. One idea is that Groth throws Bindle at an enemy Hero, Bindle latches on and "steers" the enemy back towards Groth.
In the case of Durandel, the sword itself is the hero. An ancient, sentient sword that traps the souls of all the enemies it has killed. Each of Durandel's abilities would summon forth a different warrior soul to wield it, and the souls bring with them different attributes and attacks. You would be able to switch between between speed, strength, etc depending on which soul you called forth to wield the sword.
Vixen is a werefox. A cunning, deadly dual-wielding bandit in her own right, she can also shift into fox form to pursue enemies or escape from situations.
Haglish is a dwarf with a huge, unstable rocket strapped to his back. His abilities include dive bombing from above, and grabbing his enemies and rocketing them into nearby obstacles. The idea behind is rocket is that the fuel is unstable, and more he uses his abilities, the more it overheats. It does more damage, but also runs the risk of exploding and causing damage to Haglish. He's a risk vs reward dps hero.
Cthulhuphant is a tank. A demon elephant with a trample to engage, and also an otherworldly aura of despair and pestilence that can lower the attributes of enemy heroes.
Kaiser is a utility mage dps hero. His primary ability allows him to plant Runestones in the ground (up to 5). His other abilities let him activate the runestones, channeling powerful arcane magic through them to enemies nearby. If the runestone are close enough to each other, they are connected by a beam of this energy and the power is amplified. Kaiser can create intricate and deadly webs of energy to trap and destroy his foes.
Amoeba is a gelatinous blob of ooze. He is able to release small oozelings to pursue his enemies, or excrete a vile trail of muck that slows any enemy hero crossing it. Amoeba can also form his body into a wall structure preventing anyone from passing.
Gorge is a sentient shark augmented with robotic appendages that allow him to traverse land and chase down his prey.
I'm really psyched about all of these ideas! One of these concepts will be taken to S2Games where we'll brainstorm and develop, and eventually produce aan actual playable Hero to take to the fields of battle in Heroes of Newerth! So cast your vote now!

Travelmath helps you find the closest airport to any city, as well as a list of smaller local airports. You can use these pages to plan your trip and figure out the easiest way to get to your destination. Many times there are multiple airports near the city you want to visit, so you can often find a cheaper flight into a different airport. This is especially useful if you are getting a rental car, since it might be better to drive a bit farther in order to save money on airfare. If you're booking an international flight, you probably want the closest major airport, otherwise if you're a pilot you may be looking for a local airport. Use this tool along with the flight distance pages to plan your travel.

Through her diverse practice ranging from wet paint to sculptural molds of towels on canvas to concrete paintings, artist Analia Saban questions the value of painting. Born in Argentina and living and working in Los Angeles, Saban's work is not only highly conceptual but also playful, adding a palpable sense of humor to her troubling of the rules of art.
Featured in the Art Nova section of Art Basel Miami Beach, the Thomas Solomon Gallery will display, along with works by Ry Rocklen and Ulrich Wulff, Saban's delicate laser-sculpted painting, "Circuit Board with Architectural Details," and a concrete slab painting. Creating a fascinating dialogue between these two series at the fair, gallery owner Thomas Solomon explains, "The relationship between the building and the taking way, destroy/create is a part of both of those series."
We spoke to Analia Saban about the definition of painting, the importance of her studio and the value of art.
One of the works that you're bringing to Miami is a concrete slab painting. Using a normally sculptural material in a painting, you question the definition of painting. Why does the definition of painting interest you?
Analia Saban: I wasn't trained as a painter. In college, you have painting as one area of study, sculpture as another and my program was new genres, which included video, performance and everything. It was interesting to be a student, seeing the painters get more attention, higher positions and more money, and think, "What is it about painting? Why is it so powerful?"
Concrete is about using a material that is so cheap. It's a surface that is always around us but when you put it vertically, it's also a painting. It's about thinking where the work can go within the rules of painting. It's still hanging on the wall, it's still a flat surface, it's still on canvas and so on.
You have also worked with wet paint, sealing the paint in a bag so it remains wet in the gallery. What interests you about wet paint?
I always felt that one of the powers of painting is the material resembles a whole life cycle. It's wet and fluid at the beginning and then in the end, it dries and it dies in a way. I wanted to explore a different way of looking at painting. I thought it would be fun for the viewer to see the paint wet since its normally something only the artist has access to. Artists love to see wet paint and it provides a lot of pleasure. It was fun to show paint in a more living way.
You also have a series of paintings of towels, bedsheets and other objects around your studio. Through these paintings, the artist's studio and working environment becomes a part of the gallery. What is the importance of the studio in your work?
I love my studio. I didn't think consciously of my studio in these works. I lived in my studio for many, many years. I just moved out when I just started working on these works six months ago. I was probably trying to reconnect with this place I had for so many years.These were things that I was in touch with every day and looked at their surface, whether it's the concrete on the floor or the bedsheets every day when you wake up.
There is a real playfulness and sense of fun in your art. Do you think humor is integral to your questioning of the definition of painting?
To have a sense of humor is always healthy. Its not my intention to make fun of painting or to make a joke out of art. I feel the warm embrace of humor is essential to not take things too seriously because of what is at stake.
What do you think is the value of art?
When I was going to school, I was always broke and I'd see Picasso painting selling for $95 million. It makes you think, "What is this? Why?" I understand the history, of course, that Picasso was a genius. But you have to think, it's also just a piece of fabric with pigments on it. I feel the value of art is going to be an open question forever.

I've had a lot of questions recently about exhibition print, especially the humble portable exhibition stand. Even if you can't stand exhibition work, or mainly do banner roll up work or other wide format work like advertising banners, there's no denying that these items are becoming more and more popular with e-commerce printers and customers alike. While once the preserve of the few, mass production and trade familiarity has driven the prices down to an amazing level especially when you consider the effectiveness of what you are actually getting. They have their standard uses, of course, but there are a few great uses that I'd not heard of until recently!
One chap I know uses them as wedding venue backdrops. Apparently, a lot of venues don't have a perfect spot for certain types of portrait shots so he sometimes takes his own backdrop to create the perfect shot. This is possible because they are so portable – just him and his assistant can manage one easily, and they are reusable so he has different sets of panels for each of the popular venues he shoots at.
Another use is by a local wedding band that I do promo flyer printing for. As an when the size of the venue allows, they use an exhibition stand as a great backdrop. This gives a really great professional look to the band as they often appear on photos and videos taken on the day. Let's put it this way – they get a LOT of work and this must be one of the reasons why!
Another photographer I know works in fashion doing product photography and he often uses them as backdrops for fashion shoots. They are high and wide, and because of their curved wall appearance they allow the background to 'wrap' around the models which helps avoid any of the room creeping into the shot. I think this is a great idea, and something you can't do with a standard flat backdrop of the type normally used in these situations.
That's just three but there are bound to be many many more creative and new applications for these units. I'm already seeing them used in twos and threes (and more!) arranged together in lots of interesting ways. I see them with sections cut out to allow small screens to be inserted, or being used as projector screens as part of an entire exhibition, which looks really really good, especially when the printed design takes this use into account. I saw a sales pitch from a business web design company who used one as a projector screen that was printed up like an old TV set – it really did look excellent!
Fight Depression With Fitness!
Dealing with depression is something that you want to do properly in order to ensure that you are targeting the real issues and not only creating temporary relief for yourself. These depression tips could be a great help in your fight towards happiness and a more balanced mindset towards your life.
Do not be afraid to ask for help. Many people keep their problems and emotions all bottled up inside them. Obviously, this is not a healthy thing to do. Instead, you should reach out to a friend or family member. If you have no one who is close, seek out a professional.
Sometimes, a pet can be the one to help someone get over depression because they give you that feeling of being needed and loved. This can be exactly what someone suffering from depression needs. They can also make you get outside of yourself which is a great antidote for someone that is depressed.
A great tip that can help you fight depression is to make sure you're eating a healthy diet. If you're getting in poor nutrition, you might become tired and sluggish. This can lead to depression. Eating healthy can go a long way in helping you get out of your depression. Going to the gym is great too, but if you can't bear it you can always get a personal trainer. There are some great fitness trainer courses available online, as ever.
Depression is the kind of thing that can really cause you to be unable to remove yourself from the cycle. If you find this happening with you try to change your routine. This can be something as simple as a new lunch place or as drastic as changing jobs or cities.
No one should deal with depression without the right tips and skills to get through the worst situations with a clear head. There are several things that can cause depression, and knowing how to best handle these situations can be key to gaining a better insight on life and avoiding great depressions that can be harmful to your very health.

Tameka Harris Covers Rolling Out
Former Xscape singer Tameka "Tiny" Harris covers next month's issue of Rolling Out magazine. Tameka dishes about her life as a businesswoman, being the wife of rap superstar Tip "T.I" Harris, and being mother to 6 children (3 of them biological).
Being a businesswoman seems to come easy to you, but how have you balanced that with being married? After being in a longtime relationship (with rap star T.I.), has marriage changed anything?
"A lot of people say that things change — and maybe my husband might say something different — but I don't really see much of a change. I just feel like I've been doing some of the same things as a married woman, that I was doing years before … so it's kind of like continuing on with the papers now. Honestly, I'm just enjoying it. I'm enjoying being called a wife, because it's different than just being in a relationship … it feels a little better now."

Your live fish may not match the image shown due to natural variations in each species. Each companion animal is different in shape, color, and personality.
Rabbitfish are known for their algae eating capabilities even consuming some nuisance algae like hair and valonia. The Bicolor Foxface, also known as Fiji Foxface, are generally a peaceful species except towards other rabbitfish. Considered reef safe but if not well fed they can nip and consume various soft and large polyp stony corals. Plenty of hiding places should be provided.
Bicolor Foxface - Special Care Info
The spines on the dorsal and anal fins of the Bicolor Foxface are venomous and caution is a must when handling. The likelihood of a sting is a very uncommon event, but should not be taken lightly. Although the venom is stronger than a bee sting, every person reacts differently to the venom. Be sure to remove any broken spines if necessary. It is highly recommended to get medical treatment even after soaking the affected area.

Extending The API To Create Labeled MarkersPublished by Mike January 22nd, 2007 in JavaScript, Overlays
Many people find the object-oriented aspect of JavaScript to be very confusing. Fortunately, the designers of the Google Maps API have managed to make it extremely accessible—if all you ever did was instantiate their classes and then build scripts around those objects, you could still create very interesting and compelling maps. Creating a cool map is firstly about content, and secondly about technology.
However, there comes a point when you butt up against a limitation of the API, and it's at that point that you can begin to explore the dynamic flexibility that JavaScript offers. To that end, I'd like to share a simple method of extending GMarker to allow for a text label to sit on each icon, like so:
But first, an announcement and disclaimer:
I am now working for Google. My school has a very strong co-op program, and as part of that, I was hired to work as an intern with the Maps Team in New York City for four months. As such, I cannot make any more speculative posts about future API or Maps features. And anything here that could be construed to be an opinion is not one held by my employer.
And with that out of the way, let me show you how to do labeled markers.
As we mentioned in the book, everything that goes on a map implements the GOverlay interface. It's not as scary as it sounds; all this means is that every object you try to add to a map must have three basic functions: initialize, redraw, and remove. The map will call initialize on the overlay to tell it to generate the DOM elements that represent itself, redraw when it wants them moved to the correct position, and remove when it wants it to remove and destroy those same DOM elements.
One option is to create your own class from scratch, implementing this interface. This however, is silly, for two reasons:
- The API already helps you out a lot with browser compatibility issues. Transparent PNGs don't display properly in IE6, for example, and the API's GMarker class has hacks in place to deal with that. If you implement your own Marker class from scratch, you'll be reinventing the wheel on this front.
- GMarker already has a whole bunch of code in place to handle simple events like clicks and so-on, but also much more complicated things like the draggability. Why throw that all away?
As you can see, the ideal is not to work with GOverlay, but with GMarker. It's not a lot of functionality we're adding, and we'd like to just gently bolt it onto what's already there in the standard class.
JavaScript Inheritance
I'm not going to talk a lot about how to do inheritance in JavaScript. A quick web search will reveal that far too much ink has been spilled on the topic already. I'm just going to use the absolute most basic approach possible, and along the way point out its big drawback.
So, the plan is that I'll create a new class called LabeledMarker, which inherits everything from GMarker, but responds to three additional parameters in the options array of its constructor. In instead of just draggable and icon and so on, you'll get these three new choices:
- labelText will be what to put on the marker, a string.
- labelClass will be what class to give the marker div, so that it can be targetted with CSS.
- labelOffset will be a GSize object, indicating where to put the div, relative to the marker's base.
Now, to make that happen, I have to subclass GMarker, and in the new constructor have code that knows what to do with those three new properties. Then, at the end of the new constructor, I have to call the original GMarker constructor, so that it can handle the rest of the parameters. Unfortunately, the code for calling the original constructor is a little weird, but you can accept it on faith for the moment, and read up later:
function LabeledMarker(latlng, options){
this.latlng = latlng;
this.labelText = options.labelText || "";
this.labelClass = options.labelClass || "markerLabel";
this.labelOffset = options.labelOffset || new GSize(0, 0);
GMarker.apply(this, arguments);
Now, that handles the constructor, but the real key to JavaScript's inheritance model is setting an object's
prototype property to be equal to some other object, which lets the one access the other's methods and properties. In this case, we want LabeledMarker to have GMarker as its prototype, so we try to do this:
LabeledMarker.prototype = GMarker;
Ack, it doesn't work! Rather than assigning the GMarker function directly like this, we have to assign an instance of it, an object. But we can't create an instance of a GMarker until we know where on the map we're putting it, right? Unfortunately, the awkward hack necessary here is that a GMarker must be instantiated with a dummy GLatLng. This GLatLng does nothing other than let GMarker's constructor execute to completion so that its methods may serve as prototypes for our new class:
LabeledMarker.prototype = new GMarker(new GLatLng(0, 0));
And there, is the basics of JavaScript inheritance. But of course, we're not done yet—we haven't actually implemented the rest of LabeledMarker.
Initialization: Putting LabeledMarker on the Map
The initialize function is the one that actually adds DOM elements to the map. You may need to brush up on this, but the main bits you need to know are createElement and appendChild.
If we call the initialize function belonging to GMarker right at the beginning of LabeledMarker's initialize function, then we'll know right away that the rest of the elements have already been added correctly. This means the image for the marker itself, its shadow, and whatever other magic goes on in there. All that's left for us to do is tack on the little text div holding our label message. We need to create it, assign a few properties, and then append it to the correct div which holds marker DOM elements. In the end, it's pretty straight forward:
LabeledMarker.prototype.initialize = function(map) {
GMarker.prototype.initialize.call(this, map);
var div = document.createElement("div");
div.className = this.labelClass;
div.innerHTML = this.labelText;
div.style.position = "absolute";
this.map = map;
this.div = div;
Again, unfortunately JavaScript is such that the call to the parent initialize method is a little hairy. What's happening there makes sense, but this is not the place for that explanation.
The other main thing happening here is that the CSS position value of the div is set to
absolute. This is necessary to be able to precisely set its pixel position.
And finally, pointers to the div and map are stored as instance variables in the marker, so that other functions may later have access to them.
Redraw: Setting The Position
Thanks to helper functions in the API, setting the position of a LabeledMarker is extremely painless. The redraw function acts primarily as a pass-through to functions exposed in the API:
LabeledMarker.prototype.redraw = function(force) {
GMarker.prototype.redraw.call(this, map);
// We only need to do anything if the coordinate system has changed
if (!force) return;
var p = this.map.fromLatLngToDivPixel(this.latlng);
var z = GOverlay.getZIndex(this.latlng.lat());
this.div.style.left = (p.x + this.labelOffset.width) + "px";
this.div.style.top = (p.y + this.labelOffset.height) + "px";
this.div.style.zIndex = z + 1; // Directly in front of the marker image
All it does is use
fromLatLngToDivPixel to grab pixel coordinate values, and then plug them directly into the Left and Top stylesheet properties.
Responsible Code: Destroying Itself Afterward
The removal function is very simple, it zaps the one div we created, and then passes control to GMarker, to do the cleanup that it needs to do:
LabeledMarker.prototype.remove = function() {
this.div = null;
And there you have it. You can run away and see the working demo of this, or you can stick around for a few additional notes, and a full list of source code.
A Word About Events
As you can see in the demo, the new markers do not respond to being clicked on. This is not hard to add, but for simplicity's sake it's not something I wanted to cover in this article. The basic principle would be to have the initialization function scoop up a pointer to whatever the element is that GMarker creates, and then have any clicks that hit the text div be passed through to that element.
Additionally, you'd have to add stylesheet properties to reinstate the grabbing-hand mouse pointer.
A Word About The Demo
As in the disclaimer, I just moved to New York a few weeks ago. I live in East Village, and I walk to Google's lovely Chelsea office. But with the vast diversity of neighbourhoods on the island, I thought it would be fun to put together a quick map of them.
Now, the point was mainly to illustrate labeled markers and JavaScript inheritance, not to make a sweet Manhattan mashup. If one were to do that, I would definitely recommend using the awesome new GPolygon stuff to actually outline the road boundaries.
The even cooler thing to do, would be to take advantage of Wikipedia's article on the topic, and directly harvest out the street boundaries of the different regions, interpreting and geocoding them as necessary. Obviously, this is more difficult than simply entering them by hand, but perhaps it might be possible to create something broad enough that it would work across multiple data sets, like the L.A. and Chicago neighbourhoods.
The purpose of these articles and demos, after all, is to spur your imagination, to toss out ideas for future projects and endeavours.

Excellent example, thanks for posting this.
Couple of questions:
1. Will this work with the new 'Marker Manager'?
2. Can you show the code snippet of what it would take to get clicks working?

Thank you for this article. It solved my problems with my google map.

Great extension, though I am having some difficulty with it in IE. I have 90 markers on my custom map which really makes IE take a performance hit (though I think performance starts degrading at around half that amount). Any insider tips on tweaking the performance for IE?

Thanks again for the great extension!

Hi. Is it possible to click on a map, add a marker at the click point and have a label or infoWindow displaying the Lat/Long
Aug 15th, 2007 at 5:24 am
Excellent job, thanks a lot for posting it. I've some questions and need your help:
Can you pls. tell me how to implement same in asp.net 2.0 with c#.
As this code includes map_data.php file, how can i get its substitute in asp.net?
Actual task is :
I've to create location names in english for thailand map. and the most important thing is all the postions gets highlighted when we perform search according to hotels, shopping,etc at a particular Location Like for e.g in pattaya(in thailand).
Its quite urgent.

Thank you for writing an article that explains 'why', not just 'what' like so many others do. For example, when I read the code snippet with the 'absolute' CSS attribute I instantly thought, 'Why?' I was pleased to see you address that just two paragraphs later.

The extension is very useful. I really appreciate its development.
I am having trouble to display '-' together with any text, such as '-5mm'. the text after '-' will be offset to a new line. I wonder if anybody could help me out on this.
Thank you in advance.

Thanks for the help! I'm kind of understanding this javascript/google maps relationship a whole lot better…
I was wondering if there is any way to just use a GIcon class to change a custom GMarker, though… or do I have to set my icons/shadows through custom images?

Your labeled marker code is great. I have found it very useful to add a span element to the labelText, thus identifying all of my sites (locations) with a nice CSS embellished label. I can also alter the CSS once a site has been chosen (clicked). I do this with: onClick="this.className='pinClicked', and I use a different set of CSS for 'pinClicked' events. When I want to choose a whole new set of sites, I simply click a "reset" button, which returns all of my labels to their original state (quickly re-loads all of the individual sites). Since the sites (locations) I am interested in are labeled nicely using your code and my fancy CSS, I don't even use an image to show the location of the sitte, I don't need a "dot" to know where it is, the label tells me quite clearly. When loading many sites (say over 500), I find it much quicker for Google Maps not to have to load any marker images. It's very fast without the images!

Can we make text in labeled Marker bold if yes how?
Aug 17th, 2008 at 5:48 pm
2 comments:
- yes you can make the labeled Marker bold in the CSS
for example you can add in the css section:
div.LabeledMarker_markerLabel {
font-weight: bold;
background-color: #d7d7d7;
- I managed to make it work with draggable markers
- first remove the reset of the flag in the constructor section
// if (opt_opts.draggable) {
// This version of LabeledMarker doesn't support dragging.
// opt_opts.draggable = false;
// }
then add the following line at the first line of the redraw() function:
this.latlng_ = this.getLatLng();
and you're all set (at least with Firefox, I didn't test with other browsers but I don't see why it should make any difference.

Hi. I read your article and it's very interesting, though a little over my head in places. I have a basic map page (http://www.infolingua.ie/map.html) which I'd like to develop into quite a large project. I want to translate placenames using labels.
Before I do that, though, I need to find out how to have markers with text labels which can be visible or not depending on the zoom level.
I have implemented the Overlay function with my labels but I don't know how to get this to work with zoom. Kilcormac is a smaller town than Offaly, so on my page I would like it to come in at a higher zoom level than Offaly. In my implementation they both appear together. If I had lots of markers, the map would get very cluttered.
I found a tutorial ( http://econym.googlepages.com/markermanager.htm ) showing how to use GMarkerManager, which enables disappearance and reappearance of labels depending on zoom level, but the author says it can't be used with Overlay ("Don't perform both map.addOverlay() and mm.addMarker() on the same marker."). In his example there are no text labels, so is it not possible to have labels with markers under GMarkerManager?
My main question is, how can I get markers *with labels* that can respond to zooming? I'd greatly appreciate any help you can give me.

@aniket It's a DIV so you can place any HTML in it as you please :).

Anyone get labeled markers to work correctly in Opera? All the labels have grey backgrounds and black text.
Jan 13th, 2009 at 9:19 am
I really really like your example.
Is there any way to delete all markers and start with a clean map even thogh there are markers all ready on the map? ( I mean with out refreshing the page.)
If any one can help please let me know.
Thanks in advance!!

dear mike,
Nice post there. I ve been using your example to direct my friends to my wedding location.
I have incorporated the direction in the googlemap as additional to your exmpale. But my problem is when using GEvent.addListener(map,"singlerightclick",function(pixel,tile,ovrlay)
the Label is not being detected by the event listener though it works for the picture. The div area simply does not respond to the event listener. How can i fix this, so that the event listener would also be captured for the div area comprising of the label text? Thank you.

many many thanks for posting this. I was looking for ways to extend google map methods in v2 for days until i found your site! thanks!
Nov 15th, 2009 at 8:52 am
one more question, how do you properly override existing methods in, for example, GMarker, it has openInfoWindowTabsHtml method and i want to override this to accomodate some additional settings of my own??
thanks in advance!

I would like to thank you for the endeavors you have made in publishing this article. I am trusting the same best work from you in the future as well. In fact your fanciful writing abilities has inspired me to start my own blog now. Genuinely the blogging is spreading its wings rapidly. Your write up is a fine example of it.
Mar 10th, 2010 at 12:18 am
Unsure if it's my Laptop considering I still just had not any time to upgrading and i am continue to making use of internetexplorer 6 but while looking at your web page I've witnessed some sort of strange characters everywhere in the page, in case it is very important I merely assumed I'd inform you about. It shows that along with a variety of different txt immediately after it, such as Warning: Cannot change head string … and so forth. It's a bit weird simply because for me sites like as an example google.com and yahoo.com as well as my very own one young driver car insurance show up good for me.
Mar 20th, 2010 at 3:59 am
Thanks for sharing your information and source code - much appreciated. I will no doubt purchase this book.
Mar 20th, 2010 at 9:23 am
is there onyone who could help me with google map? Is there any way to create the markes on the google map that the label names will appear constantly near the marker point?
Apr 15th, 2010 at 8:07 pm
This is excellent, so nice to be able to at least pass an id in to the marker to save reference to the original address!
Jul 18th, 2010 at 8:15 pm

This video has been blowing up today so it needs little introduction. But if you ever lose faith in people, this might help. In this clip, about 30 dolphins washed up on the shore of Arraial do Cabo in Brazil and beach goers responded quickly.
Work has begun on the City's street tree inventory project that will assist City staff in identifying stormwater management opportunities and inform urban forestry planning and management. This inventory will be integrated into the City's street tree management tool and the City's Geographical Information System (GIS.)
The new inventory and its analysis will provide City staff crucial data about the structure, condition, value, and function of its public trees. The trees to be inventoried are within the City's street rights-of-way.
Workers from the Davey Resource Group, a division of the Davey Tree Expert Company, plan to gather the data through November of this year.
Taking stock of the urban forest with a tree inventory helps a community develop a plan of action to manage its community forest and achieve community goals for a safe, healthy, sustainable community tree resource.

Sustainable Works is inviting you to attend their Millwood Community Energy Efficiency tomorrow 6:30pm at The Crossing Millwood Community Youth Center at 8919 E Euclid. At the Energy Efficiency Kick-off Event, residents will have the opportunity to learn about the SustainableWorks program, ask questions of SustainableWorks' building analysts, sign-up for a home energy audit, and meet the program's partners. To learn more about the program, or to sign-up, please visit www.sustainableworks.com, or call the SustainableWorks office at 509-443-3471.
SustainableWorks is a non-profit focused on creating quality jobs and improving the environment with residential and small commercial energy retrofit projects facilitated through community engagement and participation. SustainableWorks utilizes a $4 million Community Energy Efficiency Program Grant to retrofit up to 2,000 homes and small businesses in moderate-income neighborhoods in Spokane, Pierce, King, and Snohomish counties over the next 2 years. This activity should produce approximately 120 full-time jobs and $12 million in retrofit work, as well as reduce carbon emissions by 3,000 tons.
For now, the tiny house movement is a tiny niche but in this economy, we've seen a growing number of Americans choosing to scale down. Ryan Mitchell from the Tiny Life lists the Top 5 Biggest Barriers To The Tiny House Movement. Here's an excerpt:
One of the largest hurdles for people wanting to live in a Tiny House is access to land. Land is expensive, in growing short supply and people want a balance of having land and being close to city or town centers where they can access services, entertainment and employment. These things are often in conflict with each other. The closer to the city center, the smaller and more expensive the lots. To have a Tiny House, you don't need much land for the actual house, but you do need enough to be able to obscure the house from prying eyes in order to fly under the radar of code enforcement and curmudgeons.

Homeowners in unincorporated areas of Spokane County and in the City of Spokane have until August 3 to sign-up for Avista's professional in-home energy audit, costing as low as $49. After that date, federal funding will end for the two-year pilot program that provides specific recommendations to help Spokane County homeowners make informed decisions about actions they can take to save energy.
The pilot program is a partnership between Avista, Spokane County and the cities of Spokane and Spokane Valley. The three local governments support the audit program with Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant funds each received in 2010 from the US Department of Energy. Avista manages the in-home energy audit program and has matched funding from its program partners to help reduce the cost of the audit for Avista customers and as part of the company's long-standing commitment to energy efficiency. Available funding for residents in the city of Spokane Valley has already been exhausted.

Perhaps the single biggest barrier to action on climate change is the fact that it doesn't hit us in the gut. We can identify it as a great moral wrong, through a chain of evidence and reasoning, but we do not instinctively feel it as one. It does not trigger our primal moral intuitions or generate spontaneous outrage, anger, and passion. It's got no emotional heat. (Ironic!)
I (and countless others) have tried to explain, address, and overcome this aspect of climate change many times, in many different ways. But the single best thing I've read on it is a new paper in Nature Climate Change called "Climate change and moral judgment," by Ezra Markowitz and Azim Shariff, of the University of Oregon Psychology and Environmental Studies departments respectively. In it, they "review six reasons why climate change poses significant challenges to our moral judgment system and describe six strategies that communicators might use to confront these challenges."

I feel like crying decaf.
As seen on Design Taxi, check out this espresso cup made out of a cookie.
I like coffee. I like cookies. (Guess how many cookies I ate today? If you guessed 12, bad news: You're not a wizard.) So naturally, I love a coffee cup you can eat. The cup has an insulated interior made of sugar icing which makes it waterproof - and more delicious.
It might take some effort to explain cookie coffee cup to my dentist but I'm too cowardly to go anyways. I also worry about crumbs in my beard. I'll get over it. This idea is just too weirdly blissful to pass up.
This is a pretty impressive list. The City of Spokane Valley has numerous Bike and Pedestrian Capital Improvements they're working on for 2012 they would like you to know about. It's nice to see their Bike and Pedestrian Program implemented and here's the rundown of projects:
Sprague Avenue Reconstruction - This project will reconstruct the existing pavement section and modify the striping to provide a wide shoulder lane to accommodate bicyclists. The Adams Rd traffic signal will be replaced and include pedestrian countdown timer displays, accessible push buttons, and bicycle detection loops.
Evergreen Road Rehabilitation - This project will take advantage of a water line replacement project by VERA Water & Power to grind and inlay Evergreen Road from 16th to 24th and reconstruct Evergreen from 24th to 32nd Avenue. Enhancements to sidewalks and striping for bike lanes will be completed as part of the project.

There will be information on the various local examples of urban farming and you'll learn how you can support and be involved with such efforts. Trailer after the jump.
From the Spokane Riverkeeper, Spokane Regional Health District, and County Sheriff's office: As recent news reports make clear, swimming and floating in open waters, especially on the Spokane River at higher stream flows, can be hazardous, especially for inexperienced swimmers who don't use life jackets.
Several local organizations and businesses are joining efforts this week with a common safety message—preventing future drownings is as simple as residents putting on their life jackets. It is a precaution that is as easy as buckling a seat belt while in a vehicle.
Spokane Riverkeeper, part of a network of 200 water protection groups worldwide, is emphasizing this message as part of Swimmable Action Day this Thur., July 26. In addition to recognizing the 40th anniversary of the Clean Water Act, the day is also meant to encourage citizens to safely celebrate access to clean, swimmable waters locally.
The Spokane River is a great resource and an ideal way to not only cool off in the summer, but to enjoy nature. When residents do not take every precaution to remain safe while enjoying the river though, it detracts from its swimmable qualities. That's why Spokane Riverkeeper and the General Store, a Spokane institution, want to make sure people are being as safe on the river as possible. For one day only, on July 26, residents can visit the General Store, 2424 North Division, and receive 40 percent off all life jackets in stock.

Comic-Con 2014 Schedule for Wednesday's Preview Night and Thursday, July 24th Includes CONSTANTINE, HANNIBAL, BATMAN '66, and More
by Matt Goldberg Posted 165 days ago
The Comic-Con 2014 scheduled for Wednesday's July 23rd's Preview Night and Thursday, July 24th has been announced. As they've done in previous years, Preview Night will offer fans a first look at the pilots for upcoming shows. This year's lineup is for The Flash, Constantine, and iZombie plus a brand new episode Teen Titans Go!. On Thursday, you'll get a much stronger Hall H lineup than last year with presentations from DreamWorks Animation, The Giver, Paramount Pictures, Entertainment Weekly's: The Visionaries (the "visionaries" haven't been announced yet, but usually this is a fascinating panel), and a look at the upcoming Batman '66 Blu-ray set. Folks in Ballroom 20, which hosts plenty of TV panels, will get to see presentations for 24, Teen Wolf, Hannibal, and Penny Dreadful. Then there's an outlier with Sony Pictures doing a presentation in the Indigo Ballroom over the in Hilton Bayfront Hotel. That's how packed Comic-Con is this year: there's no room for a major studio that's bringing Goosebumps and Pixels.
Hit the jump for Comic-Con 2014 schedule highlights from Wednesday's July 23rd's Preview Night and Thursday, July 24th. The 2014 San Diego Comic-Con will run from July 23rd to July 27th.

Math For My Future Job?
Hello, I am currently in high school taking math 20-1, but it seems to be quite hard for me. The teacher that is teaching me goes through the lessons quite fast, and I just don't understand some problems. I study all the time, but i'm just not that good at math. I was just wondering if i needed Math 30-1 or if i could take 30-2 (if that's what math in grade 12 is called) to become a programmer or to take a class in computer science in university.In Topics: Public School

U.S. existing-home sales rose again in April, according to the National Association of Realtors, with buyers motivated by the tax credit, improving consumer confidence, and favorable affordability conditions.
Existing-home sales, which are completed transactions that include single-family, townhomes, condominiums, and co-ops, increased 7.6% to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.77 million units in April from an upwardly revised 5.36 million in March, and are 22.8% higher than the 4.70 million-unit pace in April 2009. Monthly sales rose 7.0% in March.
"The upswing in April existing-home sales was expected because of the tax credit inducement, and no doubt there will be some temporary fallback in the months immediately after it expires, but other factors also are supporting the market," said Lawrence Yun, NAR chief economist. "For people who were on the sidelines, there's been a return of buyer confidence with stabilizing home prices, an improving economy, and mortgage interest rates that remain historically low."

The battle-tested AM General Hummer is on its way out and it's time to bid farewell to the aging military vet.
In the Humvee's place could step the L-ATV. The Wisconsin-built Light Combat Tactical All-Terrain Vehicle is built by Oshkosh Defense. Powered by a diesel-electric hybrid powertrain, the The L-ATV appears capable of traversing nearly any type of terrain.
The L-ATV is highly armored, can accept multiple armor configurations and has nearly unmatched off-road capabilities. Oshkosh's proprietary TAK-4i independent suspension system offers an impressive 20 inches of suspension travel at each wheel, which Oshkosh says is 25 percent more than any vehicle currently in use by the U.S. military.
While drivers of the L-ATV probably have more pressing issues to consider than the vehicle's carbon emissions, they no doubt don't want to be stranded by a vehicle that runs out of fuel deep in enemy territory. That's one reason why the L-ATV's diesel hybrid powertrain make sense (there are others). So, as the aging Humvee retires from active duty, do you think it will be the diesel hybrid L-ATV that takes over?

A longtime resident of New York's fabled Times Square area, Minnesota-born playwright and performer Talen created the Reverend Billy in the late 1990s, as redevelopment of 42nd Street transformed it from a seedy downtown neighborhood with a unique place in New York history into an open-air mall dominated by corporate tourist attraction...
What Would Jesus Buy? movie trailer - starring Reverend Billy. Directed by Rob VanAlkemade. Theatrical Release Date: 11/16/2007
Genre: Documentary
Rating: PG
What Would Jesus Buy? -- What Would Jesus Buy? follows Reverend Billy and the Stop Shopping Choir as they go on a cross-county mission to save the Holidays from the Shopocalypse: the end of mankind from consumerism, over-consumption and the fires of eternal debt! The Shopocalypse is upon us? Who will be $aved?
What Would Jesus Buy? -- Open-ended Trailer from Warrior Poets/Werner Film
From producer Morgan Spurlock (Super Size Me) and director Rob VanAlkemade, What Would Jesus Buy? examines the commercialization of Christmas in America while following Reverend Billy and the Church of Stop Shopping Gospel Choir on a cross-country mission to save Christmas from the Shopocalypse (the end of humankind from consumerism, over-consumption and the fires of eternal debt.) The film also delves into issues such as the role sweatshops play in America s mass consumerism and Big-Box Culture. From the humble beginnings of preaching at his portable pulpit on New York City subways, to having a congregation of thousands - Bill Talen (aka Rev. Billy) has become the leader of not just a church, but a national movement. Rev. Billy s epic journey takes us to chilling exorcisms at Wal-Mart headquarters, to retail interventions at the Mall of America, and all the way to the Promised Land on Christmas Day. The Stop Shopping mission reminds us that even though we may be hypnotized and consumerized, we still have a chance to save ourselves this Christmas.

Houston, TX, 77006, United States
This Montrose eatery is a neighborhood favorite for those looking to relax with a cup of coffee or light sandwich. Besides the exposed brick interior, Brasil features two outdoor spaces: a shady patio facing Dunlavy and a courtyard in the back. Most patrons frequent the restaurant for the coffee, which includes everything from cappuccino to iced coffee, but there is also a menu with breakfast and lunch items. The homemade pizzas are especially popular, as are the vegetarian options, including the goat cheese and beet sandwich.
Insider Tip:
Oftentimes the restaurant hosts live bands inside so if you're looking for a quieter spot, try the back courtyard.
