Bing Maps Silverlight Control

This morning I upgraded the Where Was Dr. Neil and the Locus Activity Map web pages to use the released version of the Bing Maps Silverlight SDK.
The upgrade from the CTP took under an hour. There are some minor naming differences, for example the VirtualEarth namespace has been replaced by with a Maps namespace. It is now Microsoft.Maps.xxx which makes more sense.
I believe you only have a few more days to perform the upgrade, and then the CTP service will be shut down.
You will need an account key for each web site on which you host the Silverlight map control. You can get your key by creating an account on the Bing Maps Portal.
Then the key needs to be placed in the XAML when you add a Map to your Silverlight app.
The Silverlight interactive SDK is pretty handy to get you started once you have downloaded and installed the SDK.

Eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, is a popular cosmetic and functional procedure aimed at enhancing the appearance and utility of the eyes by removing excess skin, fat, and muscle from the eyelids. For individuals searching for “Eyelid Surgery and blepharoplasty near me,” the convenience of local access, skilled surgeons, and trusted clinics becomes crucial. This surgery can dramatically improve facial aesthetics by restoring a youthful, refreshed look and can also correct medical issues like droopy eyelids impairing vision. It’s not just a beauty fix—it’s a life-enhancing solution for many.

When considering eyelid surgery locally, one of the most important factors is the expertise of the surgeon. A qualified, board-certified plastic surgeon or oculoplastic specialist with a focus on eyelid anatomy can ensure both safe and aesthetically pleasing results. Choosing a nearby expert allows for detailed in-person consultations, where you can openly discuss your concerns, expectations, and potential outcomes. Proximity also makes it easier to undergo preoperative evaluations and attend necessary follow-up appointments without the hassle of long travel.
