disaster plans include cloned icons: An older article, but still
an interesting look at the science of geometric mapping and
how it's being used to ensure we can rebuild historical structures if
they're destroyed.
The bottom line: Should disaster strike, and a political decision
be made to rebuild, exact replicas — or architectural clones
— could be constructed fairly quickly. How do you replicate the
225-ton, 305-foot Lady Liberty? The 288-foot Capitol dome? The 60-foot
busts of Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Roosevelt?
Deploying high-powered, laser-scanning technology to record the
landmarks from every angle, the feds have been creating
three-dimensional digital models of their complex exterior features.
They also have scanned part of the ornate interior of the Capitol.

SimCity for Sims, recursion will eat
itself
02/16/2004 01:14 PMA third-party Sims developer has produced a version of SimCity for use
in the Sims, so that your simulated people can simulate being
the mayor of a simulated city. No word yet on whether we are all just
sims in a great simulation in the sky, executing on a celestial
computer the size of the universe, with "God" simply a gamer playing
an unimaginably scaled up version of the Sims. But I have my
suspicions. Have a melon. Lag.
Dude<
/a>.
"The Sims must routinely refurbish the buildings to keep the citizens
happy, or just let them deteriorate and force the citizens to become
unhappy and move away," says Alvey. "Happy citizens go to work and pay
taxes, which the Sims collect as revenue. The higher the profits, the
more attractive the city becomes, so more citizens will move into it."

Wireless vs. Rush Hour
Wireless vs. Rush Hour
05/20/2004 02:19 PMMy latest article for TheFeature.com is online:
"Each year, Los Angeles drivers spend a combined total of 9,000
years stuck in traffic. Cell phones make it much easier to suffer
through the brutal traffic jams that are the bane of city life around
the world. Fortunately, wireless technology can also shorten the
waiting game of freeway commuting.
From Los Angeles and Seattle to Berlin and Tokyo, city planners and
researchers are deploying a slew of wireless sensors, smart street
signs, and real-time data services for mobile devices to help manage
traffic flow and inform drivers about what they'll face on the road
ahead."

Firsthand account of the gay marriage
rush at San Fran city hall
Firsthand account of the gay marriage
rush at San Fran city hall
02/15/2004 09:18 AMMy colleague Seth Schoen took a walk yesterday down to the San
Francisco city hall and watched the hundreds of lesbian and gay couple
in various states of marriage. His first-person account is touching
and sent a shiver up my spine.
We walked around the side of the line and saw hundreds of same-sex
couples in all states of dress (punk to tuxedo to family heirloom
dress to just-off-the-street-in-work-attire). One couple wore
yarmulkes and carried a siddur; another couple looked like ordained
ministers, but I didn't know for sure of which Christian denomination.
(It must be one willing to ordain gay women.) At the back of City
Hall, the line was making its way through the door past a group of
about half a dozen well-wishers with big pink signs. They looked like
high school students. One of them was carrying an American flag with
gay rights symbols in place of the stars. (Oddly enough, San Francisco
regular Frank Chu was demonstrating too, with his usual sign that had
nothing to do with same-sex marriage -- instead about galaxies, a
rocket society, and impeaching former U.S. presidents. I was pretty
sure he was just trying to get on TV with his message. You see him
frequently in the Financial District.)...
Zack and I applauded for the couples as they were married, and shook
hands with them. The couples were as diverse in age as they were in
dress: I saw a pair of women get married and was sure they were
younger than I am. And I saw and was most touched by several weddings
of people who had likely been waiting even longer than 18 years. Two
women of my mother's age, or a little older, were married right in
front of me, and they started to cry. I almost started to cry, too.
