Bug Fixes and Improvements:
• Default location can be changed when no location services are available.
• Disable location services. Users can now disable the use of location services in My-Cast.

• Forecast accuracy. The forecast is now selected using the closest point to the user location rather than at the closest observation point to the user.
• Facebook Connection. Added a Facebook connect/disconnect button under preferences to help resolve possible issues posting to facebook. Also, improved error checking with Facebook servers to help identify problems with posting.
