Extractions: Kentucky Travel Guide Menu How to Use Kentucky Travel Guide Kentucky Travel Guide is a complete guide to Kentucky attractions, special events, lodging, restaurants, shopping, campgrounds, marinas, golf courses and other facilities. Kentucky stretches 425 miles east to west and 182 miles north to south. Its 120 counties fill 40,395 square miles. There are 51 state parks and historic sites and six national areas which can be enjoyed by Kentucky travelers. Kentucky, a state with a uniquely diverse geography, is divided into four color-coded sections in this guide, North Central, Western, Eastern and South Central. Within the four sections are 9 regions divided into 36 travel areas with listings for the major cities in each area. Attractions are listed under the nearest city. Each of the four sections is introduced with a map showing the regions and travel areas in that section as well as the counties included in each travel area. Maps of each of the 36 travel areas illustrate the locations of the cities in the area. The Table of Contents identifies the regions and travel areas in Kentucky Travel Guide . An Index is also provided for locating particular cities, parks and other attractions. "Information" listings are included for each city as a source of additional information about the city and the surrounding area.

Extractions: Source: U.S. Geological Survey, Dept. of the Interior There is no generally accepted definition of geographic center and no uniform method for determining it. Following the U.S. Geological Survey, the geographic center of an area is defined here as the center of gravity of the surface, or that point on which the surface would balance if it were a plane of uniform thickness. All localities in the following list, therefore, are approximate. No marked or monumented point has been established by any government agency as the geographic center of either the 50 states, the conterminous U.S., or the North American continent. A monument was erected in Lebanon, KS, the conterminous U.S. center, by a group of citizens. A cairn in Rugby, ND, marks the center of the North American continent.

Geography Of Virginia: "Elevation Profile Of Virginia" Big Stone Gap in Wise County on the kentucky border. points were included, along withmajor cities, towns and Relationship of the Profile to Physical geography. http://www.zanesville.ohiou.edu/geography/elevation/
Extractions: by James W. Fonseca and William Vaughan This is a description of a project in which an elevation profile (topographic profile) of Virginia was constructed along a transect line from the Atlantic Ocean to the western edge of the state along the Kentucky border. We are detailing the steps in the construction of the profile to encourage geography students to create their own profiles. Then we will analyze the profile and discuss how it relates to Virginia's physical geography. This article was first published in the Virginia Geographer (Fall-Winter, 1991 issue). When the project was in its planning stage, the first consideration was where the topographic profile should be placed. The aim was to include as many well-known landmarks as possible while giving a reasonably accurate representation of the topography of the state. A line oriented roughly east-west was preferred as it would cut across the greatest variety of physiographic regions. It would also follow the natural shape of the state and correspond with the reader's inclination to view a profile oriented with east on the right. A more than suitable line was found that ran from Metompkin Island, off Accomack County on the east, to Appalachia, near Big Stone Gap in Wise County on the Kentucky border. The advantage of this line is that it intersects the cities of Richmond, Lynchburg, Bedford, Roanoke, Salem, and Norton and the towns of Appomattox and Blacksburg.

The course will use Blackboard (http://www.learn.eku.edu ) to distribute and collect assignments, and to facilitate discussion between class sessions. All students are expected to familiarize themselves with the Blackboard system and to visit the site on a regular basis for current materials. Course Description Cities blend the physical and human/cultural realms of geography. Using a variety of geographic tools and models, we will explore cities as both physical ecological landscapes, and as places of human social, economic, and cultural convergence. Among the topics we will visit are transportation, housing, city services, industrial and retail activity, social justice, and ecological function. We will also examine how and why cities have changed throughout human history, and what possible changes may be in in store for the future. We will also emphasize the basic geographic themes of location, place, human/environment interactions, movement, and regions.

Extractions: By Nina Brown Background Semple, Ellen Churchill (1863-1932) As a student at Vassar College, Ellen Churchill Semple majored in history, graduating with a BA at the age of 19 and later continuing on to complete a MA in history there. Her introduction to geography came after graduation during a family trip to London where she was introduced to the work of German geographer, Friedrich Ratzel. Semple read Ratzel's landmark book Anthropogeographie Innovation This conclusion demonstrated Semple's strong belief in environmental determinism, a theoretical orientation that reflected her training with Ratzel. Her first book, American History and Its Geographic Conditions (1903), expanded Semple's inquiry into the historical development of American society. In this sweeping book Semple described the ways that the natural environment of the United States had conditioned the course of American history from the 17th through 19th centuries. The book reviewed numerous developments in American history, including the settlement of the Atlantic seaboard colonies, westward migration, the development of cities, and the expansion of road and rail systems. Semple argued that each of these developments was structured by the natural features of the land. Westward migration in the 19th century, for instance, followed the course of rivers and older 17th century trade routes while avoiding dense forest, mountainous terrain, and Native American settlements [see illustration].

Of these, 219 coordinate their planning jointly with county planning and zoning units. There are 27 counties that have full joint planning and zoning commissions. Within these counties are 184 cities. In several instances, the city planning effort and the county planning effort are not always coordinated in practice. There are an additional 24 counties that have joint planning commissions, but not countywide zoning. In these counties, the larger cities (about 35) have independent zoning boards.
