This map was kept by the Prisoners in a German PoW camp. They used to wrap it in oilskin and keep it inside a large pan of boiling water.
They used to use the map to track troop movements.

Contrast with overall population and overall pop growth maps, and you'll see why counties like Montgomery are declaring nightlife (among other youth-friendly things) to be a policy priority.
D.C., Arlington, and Alexandria were aggregated for clarity
This map was on the back of the seats on our Delta flight from Portland to Atlanta. I was hoping my hometown, Hamilton AL, would show up, but it did not. For some reason, Haleyville, 20 miles to the east of Hamilton did.

Trying out this Lifehacker tip. I don't know if I'll use it, but was curious to see what it would look like. (I didn't use it to drive home from the office, I know the way.:)
I love reading maps, and squeeed out loud when I saw this. :D Fangirling for the win! I was looking up 'Winchester', and then saw 'Dean' right above it. Heeeeeeee.

Map shows how Federal Patent and Tradmark offices anchor a TOD project at an infill site between two metro stations. Each station is about 1/3 a mile from the center of the project. I have been told that even at that distance the Patent ofices have a 50% transit mode share.

Image on the left is processed "the usual way" in Registax, using a single aligment point, limiting the best couple of hundred of the 450 frames, and applying gaussian wavelet processing to produce a single bitmapped frame. Image on the right uses the same source AVI file, but 11 separate alignment points spread around the frame to produce 11 separate bitmaps that are then Registax-stacked into a single, better final frame. This is called MAP processing (multi-alignment-point).

Marshall Springs is where I start. The Hill of Death is located just by the 1 in the circle on the left side of the map. Those little lines indicate a steep section in the trail. They don't lie.

Map and information from Barry Weaver's St. Helena Virtual Library and Archive at www.bweaver.nom.sh A fantastic resource of books, maps and views of St. Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha.
The map above is from the 1732 edition of Herman Moll's Atlas, originally published in London in 1729, there were numerous subsequent editions of Moll's atlas from 1732 on through the mid-1760s. Moll's map mostly is derived from an earlier map by John Seller but has some notable differences. The overall outline of the island is smoother and Sugerlofe Pt is not as prominent as on Seller's map. Landing Place and Watering Place have been added at the mouth of James Valley, and, compared to Seller's map, George Island has become St. Georges I., Horse Pasture Point has become Horse and Pasture Pt, Banckes Platform has become Blankerts Platform, Manate Bay has become Manata Bay, and Powells Bay has become Pervels Bay.
The longitude given on the map for James Fort is further west than actual but it was only in 1736 that Harrison conducted the first trial (from London to Lisbon) of his marine clock, accurate timekeeping being essential for accurately determining longitude. The first transatlantic trial of his improved clock was not until 1761.
Map of ancient Pompeii, main entrance is on lower left and a quick walk from the Circumvesuviana rail stop. During the initial excavations many of the artifacts were taken to Naples and are still housed in the museum there so your visit should be augmented with that trip.. If you get hungry, a cafeteria is located near the bath. Prepare to spend a long day and wear your walking shoes. It amazed me how freely I was allowed to explore the site
