    History
    Founded in 1870, and incorporated as a town in 1916, Bowie has grown from a small railroad stop to the largest municipality in Prince George's County, and the fourth largest city in the State of Maryland. The town was first called Huntington City, though its train station was named in honor of local resident, Governor Oden Bowie, president of the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad. The town was subsequently rechartered as Bowie. In the early days the land was subdivided by developers into more than 500 residential building lots, to create a large town site at a junction of the Baltimore and Potomac's main line to southern Maryland, and the branch line to Washington, DC.

Thanks to the efforts of eight local institutions, there are now demographic profiles for 239 Baltimore City neighborhood areas on the Internet. Led by The Johns Hopkins University's Sheridan Libraries , the partner institutions obtained a special tabulation of the 2000 Census data for Baltimore neighborhoods. Profiles include more than 400 characteristics such as population, social and economic characteristics related to race, income, education and occupation for neighborhood areas from Abell to Yale Heights and everything in between. "This initiative provides vital data to researchers, city planners and community organizations," said Winston Tabb, dean of university libraries at Johns Hopkins.

A Metting Planner's Tour Our exhibitors really like the state's central location," says Kristin Mirabel, meetings manager for the Optical Society of America. Not only is Maryland an easy flight from dozens of airports across the U.S. but, Mirabel notes, "the state offers facilities to accommodate just about any group." And in Baltimore, unlike several other major convention cities, Mirabel points out, "the close proximity of so many hotel rooms to the convention center is a huge asset." Given the fact that Washington, D.C., is the association capital of the United States, it's easy to see why nearby Maryland would be an appealing meeting destination from a convenience perspective. But Maryland offers association groups far more advantages than mere geography. In addition to a couple of tried-and-true favoritesBaltimore and Ocean CityMaryland also gives planners options ranging from quaint historic settings to nature-oriented meeting locales. So, no matter the site preferenceurban, seaside, rustic, or charmingly uniqueMaryland has it covered.

    You might use maps to locate an ancestral home or to find a reference to a town that no longer exists. In "Gazetteers: Identifying Research Localities," Ancestry 12 (4) (July/August 1994), David Thackery notes the following: "Genealogy is, among other things, an exercise in geography. Successful research often hinges on identifying the locality in which one's ancestors lived. Once we know the locality, we are in a position to consult the records and histories for the area in an effort to piece together the lives of our forebears." Pinpointing modern place-names can begin with Frank R. Abate, ed., Omni Gazetteer of the United State of America , 11 vols. (Detroit: Omnigraphics, 1991).

    GETTING ORIENTED National Weather Service (NWS) forecasters must be very familiar with the local geography. Before you work with local weather radar imagery, you will need to familiarize yourself with the regional geography. PROCEDURE Depending upon whether you use the weather radar imagery accessible via cable television or the Internet, choose one of the following basemaps: Print a hardcopy of the WRC-TV News4 Doppler weather radar display (shown to the left). Print the radar display in Landscape orientation at 75%. (Before printing, make the neccessary settings under the File/Page Setup... menu.) Print a hardcopy of the WSI Intellicast Doppler weather radar display for Sterling, VA (shown to the left). Print the map in Landscape orientation at 90%. Label the following list of geographic features. First, see how many of these features you can label without referring to an atlas. If necessary, refer to a map of the Mid-Atlantic United States. You may find it helpful to use a black marker to darken the outlines of all state boundaries. Use the broad edge of a light blue colored pencil to lightly shade all of the water bodies on the local radar basemap. Color your city or county yellow;

    Washington D.C.. American FactFinder (U.S. Census) Washington D.C. is the capital of the United States. It is also one of the country's most beautiful and historic cities and the site of many of its most popular tourist attractions. These include the White House, where the President lives and works; the United States Capitol, where the Congress meets; the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial and other historic structures; as well as a wide range of museums which together house an enormous collection of items from America's past. Am Potomac River gelegen, wurde Washington D.C. auf Land gebaut, dass ursprünglich zu Maryland und Virginia gehörte. Der in Frankreich geborene amerikanische Ingenieur, Architekt und Stadtplaner Pierre-Chalres L'Enfant entwarf den Grundriss der Stadt, mit breiten Strassen, die vom Kapitol ausgehen, und zahlreichen Kreisen und Parks. Die Bezeichnung "District of Columbia" ehrt Christopher Columbus, der bekanntere Name der Stadt, Washington, ehrt den ersten Präsidenten. Der Kongress traf sich 1800 zum ersten Mal in Washington, auch wenn der erste Bauabschnitt des Kapitols erst 1825 fertiggestellt wurde. Heute besuchen Millionen jedes Jahr Washington D.C. um das Kapitol, das Weisse Haus, die Library of Congress und die zahlreichen Museen und Monumente der Stadt zu besichtigen.

    Virginia
    is one of the Southeastern United States, on the Atlantic coast. Its entire Western border is in the Appalachian mountians, which run from Southwest to Northeast. Approaching from the ocean, one would enter the great port city of Norfolk , first passing its even more populous suburb, Virginia Beach. Neighboring cities include Newport News, Hampton, Portsmouth and Chesapeake . This area is generally called Hampton Roads. It is also known as the Tidewater, together with everything east of Washington and Richmond.
    (Bear in mind that lawyers in Virginia typically practice in several counties and cities.)
    Two hours West of Norfolk is Richmond , the capital. Two hours Northwest of Richmond is Charlottesville , just east of the Blue Ridge Mountains . Thomas Jefferson lived near there. Beyond these mountains lies the great Shennandoah Valley , and then the Allegheny mountains and desolateWest Virginia, a completely separate State which is not affiliated in any way with Virginia.
    Two hours North of Richmond, Washington, D.C., the U.S.'s capital, lies in an independent district between Virginia and Maryland.
