Source: Prototype/Pilot Version, Your London
From Kable's Government Computing, "The UK capital's e-government agency is offering directions to the nearest public toilet, among other features, on its prototype e-services portal. A prototype of London's long awaited e-services portal is soon to be tested with users, according to the capital's e-government agency. The portal, known as Your London, is now accessible in a pilot version but has not yet been publicly unveiled. The pilot site has a section offering advice for business, information for tourists and a "find your nearest" search engine. The system provides a map with directions to the nearest cash machine, police station, hospital and public toilet."

Federal Judges--United States--Databases
Source: Federal Judicial Center Improved, New Wrinkle for Federal Judges Biographical Database
"A valuable tool for anyone doing research about the nation's federal judges, past and present, is the Federal Judges Biographical Database. Maintained by the Federal Judicial Center, the database provides information about all judges who have served on the U.S. District Courts, the U.S. Courts of Appeals, the Supreme Court, and other life-tenured courts since 1789. One problem had been trying to distinguish between current and past judges. That problem was addressed in a new research question added in February 2005: Users now can [limit?] their query to sitting judges."
