Virginia (i/vərˈdʒɪnjə/vər-JIN-yə, UK/vərˈdʒɪniə/vər-JIN-ee-ə), officially the Commonwealth of Virginia, is a state located in the South Atlantic region of the United States. Virginia is nicknamed the "Old Dominion" due to its status as the first colonial possession established in mainland British America, and "Mother of Presidents" because eight U.S. presidents were born there, more than any other state. The geography and climate of the Commonwealth are shaped by the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Chesapeake Bay, which provide habitat for much of its flora and fauna. The capital of the Commonwealth is Richmond; Virginia Beach is the most populous city, and Fairfax County is the most populous political subdivision. The Commonwealth's estimated population as of 2014 is over 8.3 million.
The area's history begins with several indigenous groups, including the Powhatan. In 1607 the London Company established the Colony of Virginia as the first permanent New WorldEnglish colony. Slave labor and the land acquired from displaced Native American tribes each played a significant role in the colony's early politics and plantation economy. Virginia was one of the 13 Colonies in the American Revolution and joined the Confederacy in the American Civil War, during which Richmond was made the Confederate capital and Virginia's northwestern counties seceded to form the state of West Virginia. Although the Commonwealth was under one-party rule for nearly a century following Reconstruction, both major national parties are competitive in modern Virginia.
The reason for Virginia's name is not known; it may be named after Verginia, the Roman noblewoman slain by her father, but it may alternatively have been named after the American state of Virginia, which is contiguous with Washington.
Photometric observations of this asteroid at the Organ Mesa Observatory in Las Cruces, New Mexico during 2008 gave a light curve with a period of 14.315 ± 0.001 hours and a brightness variation of 0.19 ± 0.02 in magnitude. The shape of the light curve at the maximum was found to change with phase angle.
The orbit of 50 Virginia places it in an 11:4 mean motion resonance with the planet Jupiter. The computed Lyapunov time for this asteroid is only 10,000 years, indicating that it occupies a chaotic orbit that will change randomly over time because of gravitational perturbations of the planets.
Grundy, Virginia: The Appalachian Town That Picked Up and Moved
Half of the town was moved due to persistent flooding and it is home to the most unique triple-decker Walmart in the world. Grundy, Virginia has a lot of history and a lot of folks who have lived there.

Some Dental Relief for Appalachia's Poorest in a Town Named Grundy
Read more: http://to.pbs.org/uzzqxB
GRUNDY, Va. -- It felt like a sustained jackhammer to the jaw. A pounding, pulsing dental pain that started as a dull ache in some rotten teeth and eventually spread to Bobby Horn's entire mouth.
"It was probably six to seven years ago they really just started breaking off - some of them even below the gum line," he said. "Worst pain of my life." But like nearly half of Americans, Bobby Horn had no dental insurance and few options.
So one night in early October, Horn drove to the yearly Remote Area Medical clinic in the small Appalachian town of Grundy. There, in an elementary school parking lot, he joined nearly a thousand uninsured residents of Virginia, West Virginia and Kentucky hoping to get some free care.
Horn - profiled in the video...

GRUNDY, Va. -- It felt like a sustained jackhammer to the jaw. A pounding, pulsing dental pain that started as a dull ache in some rotten teeth and eventually spread to Bobby Horn's entire mouth.
"It was probably six to seven years ago they really just started breaking off - some of them even below the gum line," he said. "Worst pain of my life." But like nearly half of Americans, Bobby Horn had no dental insurance and few options.
So one night in early October, Horn drove to the yearly Remote Area Medical clinic in the small Appalachian town of Grundy. There, in an elementary school parking lot, he joined nearly a thousand uninsured residents of Virginia, West Virginia and Kentucky hoping to get some free care.
Horn - profiled in the video above - had 21 of his teeth pulled. But those were nothing compared with the 900 extracted from the crowd during the two-day clinic.
In this southwest corner of Virginia, there are only three certified dentists for a population of 24,000.
As former NewsHour Correspondent Susan Dentzer reported in 2006 from a sister clinic in nearby Wise County, "a visit here offers one grim window onto the state of health care in America." And the desperation has only gotten worse since the economic collapse in 2008.
It's a dental crisis that's become the status quo these days - and not just in Appalachia.
"If you blindfold yourself and throw a dart at a map of Virginia, I guarantee you that you'd find the exact same problems there that you see in Grundy," said Debbie Oswalt, executive Director of the Virginia Health Care Foundation. "It's just a mess around here. And you know what? We're not alone."
This September, the federal government identified more than 4,600 areas of the country where there simply aren't enough dentists.
In the days ahead on the NewsHour broadcast, Health Correspondent Betty Ann Bowser will examine the situation from Virginia, New York, California, and finally, the remote villages of Alaska - where a potential solution is stirring up as much controversy as hope.

Virginia (i/vərˈdʒɪnjə/vər-JIN-yə, UK/vərˈdʒɪniə/vər-JIN-ee-ə), officially the Commonwealth of Virginia, is a state located in the South Atlantic region of the United States. Virginia is nicknamed the "Old Dominion" due to its status as the first colonial possession established in mainland British America, and "Mother of Presidents" because eight U.S. presidents were born there, more than any other state. The geography and climate of the Commonwealth are shaped by the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Chesapeake Bay, which provide habitat for much of its flora and fauna. The capital of the Commonwealth is Richmond; Virginia Beach is the most populous city, and Fairfax County is the most populous political subdivision. The Commonwealth's estimated population as of 2014 is over 8.3 million.
The area's history begins with several indigenous groups, including the Powhatan. In 1607 the London Company established the Colony of Virginia as the first permanent New WorldEnglish colony. Slave labor and the land acquired from displaced Native American tribes each played a significant role in the colony's early politics and plantation economy. Virginia was one of the 13 Colonies in the American Revolution and joined the Confederacy in the American Civil War, during which Richmond was made the Confederate capital and Virginia's northwestern counties seceded to form the state of West Virginia. Although the Commonwealth was under one-party rule for nearly a century following Reconstruction, both major national parties are competitive in modern Virginia.
