America's Fattest Cities 2001 Virginia Beach lost its footing this year as it fell nine spots due to poor scores in TV viewing, sports participation and statewide nutrition. Good air quality and commute times offset the drop, but this city couldn't save its image even with a fitness trainer. There is still hope: The average resident drinks less than 2 gallons of ethanol per year, and there are plenty of city parks, and recreational facilities to attract fitness-minded individuals. Thinking about a little one-on-one? Virginia Beach ranks among the top cities with the most basketball courts per capita of our cities surveyed.

The small section of the state that, along with Maryland and Delaware, occupies the Delmarva peninsula between Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean is separated from the main part of Virginia and is called the Eastern Shore. The coastal plain or tidewater region of E Virginia, generally flat and partly swampy, is cut by four great tidal rivers : the Potomac (forming most of the border with Maryland and beyond which also lies Washington, D.C.), the Rappahannock, the York, and the James : all of which empty into Chesapeake Bay. In the tidewater region stretch vast forests of pine and hardwood, highlighted in early spring by flowering redbud and dogwood. In the west the tidewater region rises to c.300 ft. (90 m) at the fall line (passing through Richmond) and gives way to the Piedmont : rolling, generally fertile country that broadens gradually as it extends south to the North Carolina line. Rising abruptly in the western Piedmont is the Blue Ridge range, carpeted with bluegrass and ablaze in spring with rhododendron and mountain laurel; the Blue Ridge rises to the state's highest peak, Mt. Rogers (5,720 ft/1,743 m). Between the Blue Ridge and the Allegheny Plateau, both part of the Appalachian range, lies the valley and ridge province. One of the most prominent of these valleys is the Valley of Virginia; another is the rich and historic Shenandoah Valley.

Census Regions and Divisions Counties (and equivalents) Minor Civil Divisions Legally defined county subdivisions are referred to as minor civil divisions (MCDs.) MCDs are the primary divisions of a county. They comprise both governmentally functioning entities that is, those with elected officials who provide services and raise revenues and nonfunctioning entities that exist primarily for administrative purposes, such as election districts. Twenty-eight states and Puerto Rico have MCDs. However, the MCDs function as general purpose governmental units in all or part of only twenty states. Within these twenty states, PEP produces estimates for all governmentally functioning MCDs and for nonfunctioning MCDs in counties that contain at least one functioning MCD.

In so doing, they record the values and concerns of their culture and society. Virginians have produced a wide variety of maps documenting everything from land disputes to the location of burial grounds. Maps of cities range from simple plats of lots to complicated documents displaying population densities, personal economic status, and crime rates. Land development companies printed inexpensive maps to advertise their lots for sale. Maps reflected the growing tourist trade beginning in the mid-1800s, and today's official state map distributed annually by the Virginia Department of Transportation highlights the many tourist destinations in the state. Maps of cities and towns also include maps used by fire insurance companies that detail the changes in building materials and the development of public services. Policies of the

Most people today don't realize that up until the 1960's Tyson's Corner was little more than a corner gas station. Now it is one of the fastest growing regions in the United States.

The best way to get a basic understanding of where you are in geography is to start in your own back yard. Most Virginian's back yards contain leaves, plants, and animals that are truly unique to the climate of Virginia. Most of these backyards have been developed to create an environment that is totally different from the one that John Smith first saw when he landed on the shores of Jamestown. In this module I trek around the campus of George Mason University to show you geography close to home.

American Panoramic Artists and Publishers Albert Ruger Thadeus Mortimer Fowler Oakley H. Bailey Lucien R. Burleigh ... Publishers of Panoramic Maps Albert Ruger (1829-1899) By 1866, Ruger had settled in Battle Creek, Michigan, where he began his prolific panoramic mapping career by sketching Michigan cities. Full descriptions of many Ruger views of Michigan cities are contained in John Cumming's A Preliminary Checklist of 19th Century Lithographs of Michigan Cities and Towns . Urban communities in some twenty-two states and Canada, ranging from New Hampshire to Minnesota and south to Georgia and Alabama, were sketched by Ruger. He continued his activity into the 1890s, moving his business to Chicago, Madison, and St. Louis as he sought new markets. In the late 1860s, Ruger formed a partnership with J. J. Stoner of Madison, Wisconsin, and together they published numerous city panoramas. Ruger was particularly productive during the 1860s; in 1869 alone, he produced more than sixty panoramic maps. In addition to city plans, he drew views of university campuses, among them Notre Dame, Shurtleff College, and the University of Michigan. Albert Ruger died in Akron, Ohio, on November 12, 1899. Thaddeus Mortimer Fowler (1842-1922) The Boston Public Library has six views drawn and published by Fowler in the 1870s. During that decade, he was employed as an artist by J. J. Stoner. Fowler moved from Madison around 1880 to northern New Jersey, first to the Oranges and later to Asbury Park. A panoramic map of Stewart, Ohio, which appears in D. J. Lake's
