NCOE - Geography Of Entrepreneurs geography of Entrepreneurs. Exciting things are happening for entrepreneursin west virginia. That was the message of the firstever http://www.ncoe.org/entrepreneurs/geography.html
Extractions: Exciting things are happening for entrepreneurs in West Virginia. That was the message of the first-ever West Virginia Conference on Entrepreneurship, held last week in the state capital of Charleston. Governor Bob Wise (D) kicked off the event with a rousing call to arms, and participants learned about the successes of home-grown companies and how they can do even better in the future. For example, Butterfly.net ( www.butterfly.net www.wvef.org ) with building local entrepreneurship networks that allow companies and their founders to share ideas and do business together. Information about the conference is available at www.wvef.org . Presentations and other materials from the event soon will be posted at this website. Entrepreneurial networks may be the coolest thing since Pokemon. Judging from a recent article in The Boston Globe Globe , former workers of these companies have organized thriving networks which enable participants to get head-starts on launching new firms, moving new ideas forward, or steering a company through its lean growth years. (The Digital alumni group, for example, contains more than 6,000 members.) According to an executive of a local firm that builds and maintains these kinds of networks, Boston is rich in "legacy companies" which have led to a number of related spin-off companies. Another expert on networks said many people laugh at the old notion that the Internet was going to lead solely to go-it-alone laptoppers in Montana. Instead, the

If you are interested in judging or volunteering at the fair, contact Marcia Harrison at harrison@marshall.e du Dr. Joe Manzo (Concord College Department of Geography) and Dr. Ronald A. Canterbury are pleased to announce a National Geographic Society funded project on the impacts of suburban sprawl on bird populations. The study will be conducted in the urban corridor between Charleston and Huntington, as well as control sites in Raleigh/Wyoming counties, West Virginia. The project will involve inquiry-based and experimental learning for high school students and teachers with the overall goal of building an ecological model. Dr. Robert Kreisberg was elected Treasurer and Dr. James Rentch was elected Secretary at the WVAS Annual Business, West Virginia University.

Extractions: cthomas@cnpapers.com For all of the attention and repute West Virginia garners for its rural population and landscape, the Mountain State has one of the highest rates of urban sprawl in the United States. As urban sprawl increases, it can radically affect the habitats and, consequently, the survival of numerous species of indigenous wildlife. High school students from Kanawha, Putnam and Cabell counties will have the opportunity to participate in an environmental study to address the situation. Eighty high school students will join with the National Geographic Society, along with Marshall University and Concord College, to study the loss of bird habitats due to urban sprawl. The students will focus their efforts along the 60-mile stretch between Charleston and Huntington. They will perform their study with guidance from geographers, ecologists, teachers and planners.

A Hospitality Careers Website is available to teachers and students who want more information on the variety of careers offered in the hospitality industry. At this site are profiles of 10 tourism sites or attractions and 30 people who have chosen this industry as a career. Descriptions of the duties, salary ranges and quotes from the employees are included. The site is available to anyone, but was developed as a resource to middle school teachers who may need an online hospitality careers resource as part of a career exploration curriculum. ProStart students from Fayette Plateau Vocational Center pose before serving legislators and the hospitality industry at Tourism Day at the legislature. Travel West Virginia is one-year high school elective course that combines the study of West Virginia history, geography and culture with an understanding of marketing and how they combine to create our tourism industry. Employment skills and careers are also a focus of Travel West Virginia. The HEAT office makes matching grants available to TWV teachers so they can take their students to visit the sites and attractions they study. ProStart is a two-year course of study developed by the National Restaurant Association and administered by The Hospitality Business Alliance and HEAT. ProStart allows 11th and 12th graders to learn the skills, knowledge and attitudes necessary for success in restaurant management careers. Paid internships and credentials from the National Restaurant Association are available through ProStart.

Extractions: Geography Lesson Princeton men's basketball has literally gone from coast to coast. Jan. 9, 2003 When Princeton played in the Cable Car Classic between Christmas and New Year's, it marked a homecoming of sorts for the four Tigers from the state of California. That would be more than 25% of the current roster. In recent years, Princeton's roster has had a decidedly Californian flair to it. Beginning with the Class of 2000, Princeton has had 32% (six of 19) of its players who have either lettered as seniors or are still on the team come from the Golden State. That trend is set for the near future, as two of the four members of the incoming Class of 2007 are from California. Of all the trends in Princeton basketball in the last 30 years, perhaps the most interesting and least talked about is not the shot clock, the three-pointer or the up-tempoing of the offense. It's geography.
NSF - SBE Nuggets - Geography And Regional Science In Action Statistics Luc Anselin of west virginia University developed new methods foranalyzing geographical data that reveal nonobvious geographical clusters. http://www.nsf.gov/sbe/nuggets/010/nugget.htm
Extractions: The NSF's funding has helped establish and maintain U.S. leadership in Geographic Information Systems (GIS), especially through the National Center for Geographic Information and Analysis (NCGIA) , an NSF center at the University of California- Santa Barbara, the State University of New York at Buffalo, and the University of Maine-Orono. NCGIA's research has been a catalyst for the refinement of this powerful analytic tool. GIS is now being applied extensively in the private sector for market analysis and facility site selection. GIS improves the delivery and reduces the costs of providing emergency responses and fire and police protection. GIS is now a $3 billion industry that is expected to double in size by the year 2000.
