Extractions: Geographers study the interaction between human societies and their environments, characterize the regions and localities that result, and analyze the spatial distributions and processes of particular natural and human phenomena. Being equally a natural science and a social science, geography forms a bridge between the physical and human environments. Thus, geographers have always been comfortable applying multidisciplinary approaches to solve real-world problems. Geography Department News

Extractions: Advertisement Dateline: 06/26/99 I'll be the first to admit that I really wanted to visit Legoland as soon as I heard that the theme park was being built in Southern California. After all, as a youngster, I was a big fan of Lego toys, which I used to create my own urban geography, and it was a dream of mine to visit the Legoland, Billund theme park in Denmark, near Copenhagen. The second Legoland is located just west of London, England and is called Legoland, Windsor. The third and newest Lego theme park, Legoland, California , opened in March, in Carlsbad, California (just north of San Diego A Lego bird sits atop Legoland's signpost. For me, as a geographer, the highlight of Legoland was the scale models buildings and cities constructed from 20 million Lego bricks. This area of the theme park is known as Miniland, and is one of the nine sections of Legoland - other sections are all lego-themed, but include rides (from Lego-looking cars to a Lego-looking roller coaster).

Extractions: See more " unwrapped " panoramas QuickTime VR is a revolutionary technology pioneered by Apple Computer that allows you to interact with an image - you can look up, down, right, left, even around behind, and zoom in and out. It is the next best thing to being there. Needless to say, this is a technology with immense implications for teaching and learning about geography and environment. These images were all created from photographs of actual places. Requires QuickTime . This free software from Apple Computer, available for Macintosh or Windows, is necessary to view the panoramas. Download it before viewing. The panoramas on this site are a selection drawn from the much larger collection on The Virtual Guidebooks website. Virtual Guidebooks contains over 2200 virtual reality panoramas spanning western North America from Hawaii to Wyoming, from the Arctic Ocean to Baja California. It is extensively cross-referenced, with thematic lists (such as all panoramas of lighthouses) and searchable. The panoramas on Virtual Guidebooks are larger and more detailed than the ones here. dbain@baindigital.com
Fillmore, California - Geography
A mini gold rush occurred along the river in 1842 (several years before NorthernCalifornia's gold rush Virtual Fillmore is part of my geography at The Mining Co
http://geography.miningco.com/library/fillmore/fillmore.htm

Extractions: Fillmore is located in Southern California, northwest of Los Angeles. It is located in the Santa Clara River Valley, just north of the river along Highway 126. Highway 126 connects Fillmore to Ventura and Highway 101 in the west and Santa Clarita and Interstate 5 in the east. Highway 101 and Interstate 5 are each approximately twenty miles from Fillmore. To the north of the town lie the mountains of Los Padres National Forest. Mexican explorer Don Gaspar de Portola was sent in 1769 to explore Alta (Upper) California. On August 8 of that year, he and his contingent camped in the Santa Clara Valley near the site of present-day Fillmore. He met several groups of Native Americans who lived in the valley. Under Mexican rule, the area became part of the Rancho Sespe Mexican land grant. A mini gold rush occurred along the river in 1842 (several years before Northern California's gold rush). In 1848 the region became part of the United States and explorer John C. Fremont mapped the valley, which was densely covered with wild mustard. As part of the expansion of the western railroad network, the Southern Pacific Railroad built its coastal line through the Santa Clara Valley in 1886 and 1887. In 1887 an old boxcar was utilized as the town's first train station. The town was named after J.P. Fillmore, the railroad's superintendent, and a town plot map was filed with Ventura County in 1888.

Fillmore, California - Geography
This site is the end result of my project for geography 672, a graduateseminar in geography at california State University, Northridge.
http://geography.miningco.com/library/fillmore/tour.htm

Extractions: Welcome to Virtual Fillmore! This site is the end result of my project for Geography 672, a graduate seminar in geography at California State University, Northridge In this course, taught by Dr. William Bowen , we focused on roads and the buildings which lie along side them. I decided to photograph and describe Central Avenue in Fillmore, California. This is what Fillmore looked like in May 1998. This site will not be updated because it is a snapshot in time. Fillmore appealed to me with its small town atmosphere and mix of old, renovated, and new buildings. Fillmore is a great representation of an early California town. The commercial district of the town began on Main Street, across from the train station. It expanded onto Central Avenue in the late 1910s. This site includes photographs and short descriptions of every building on Central Avenue. Central Avenue, and most of downtown Fillmore, has some unique features that you'll want to be watching for as you virtually stroll downtown. First, the palm trees. The palm trees are classic symbols of Southern California and are used to line Central Avenue and Central Park at
