Spondylolisthesis treatment for various symptoms with minimally invasive processes
Spondylolisthesis treatment — non-surgical and surgical treatments for a slipped vertebra
Spondylolisthesis treatment methods vary depending on the severity of the condition. Spondylolisthesis, a spinal disorder characterized by the forward slippage of a vertebra over the one beneath it, is graded in terms of severity using a scale to measure the slippage. The scale ranges from grade 1, indicating a slippage of less than 25 percent, to grade 5, denoting a slippage of 100 percent.
In general, spondylolisthesis symptoms include pain and soreness in the back, pain in the buttocks and tightness in the hamstrings. Depending on the level of vertebral slippage, nerves may become compressed, causing pain to radiate across the lower back or down the legs and to the feet.
Spondylolisthesis treatment — conservative options
Conservative (non-surgical) spondylolisthesis treatment plans are designed to target the patient's specific symptoms while factoring in his or her age and general health. There are many different conservative treatments available and some carry a limited risk for side effects. Furthermore, the wrong treatment approach can actually further damage the spinal anatomy, so it is extremely important to work closely with a physician before beginning a new regimen. Treatment of spondylolisthesis is similar to that of other neck and back problems, and includes any combination of the following:
- Stretching and exercise — Your physician may recommend that you perform specific stretches that target tightened hamstrings and complete exercises that strengthen the back to better support the weakened spine.
- Rest — You will be advised to avoid activities that might exacerbate the condition and you may be told to take intermittent periods of rest. Extended bed rest is typically not recommended as spondylolisthesis treatment because activity is essential to maintaining the strength of the muscles supporting the spine.
- Physical therapy — Your physician may suggest that you attend regular physical therapy sessions as a form of spondylolisthesis treatment. During these sessions, your therapist will ask you to perform specific exercises designed to enhance the strength and flexibility of the affected areas of your spine.
- Bracing — In some cases, temporarily immobilizing the back can be helpful in alleviating symptoms. Your physician can determine how long you should brace your back for the optimal spondylolisthesis treatment benefits.
- Oral medications — Over-the-counter and prescription drugs like pain medications or muscle relaxants can help you control your spondylolisthesis symptoms. Before beginning such treatment, however, be sure to consult with your physician about what medication and dosage would be best for you.
- Steroid injections — If oral pain medications haven't effectively reduced your pain, your physician might recommend steroid injections near the source of your neck or back pain.
Alternative treatment options for spondylolisthesis
There are also many alternative approaches available for your spondylolisthesis treatment program. While the benefits of alternative medicine have yet to be agreed upon by the medical community as a whole, you may find that an alternative approach helps control your symptoms. A few of the more common alternative spondylolisthesis treatment options include:
- Chiropractic adjustments — Chiropractors aim to bring the spine back into proper alignment through manual manipulation. Many people find chiropractic treatment helpful in alleviating their neck and back pain, but the beneficial effects are typically temporary because chiropractic care doesn't reduce the grade of vertebral slippage.
- Acupuncture — Acupuncture involves inserting tiny needles at strategic places on the body to stimulate specific nerves and muscles. Many people find that it helps reduce the sensations of pain due to spondylolisthesis, although results from said treatment are typically temporary.
- Acupressure — This technique is based on the same principles as acupuncture, but uses pressure at strategic points instead of needles.
- Yoga — The conscientious breathing and slow movements involved in yoga can help relax you, and the careful stretching can keep the spine flexible while strengthening the muscles surrounding it.
- Supplements — Some patients find taking natural supplements or herbal remedies helps them control their symptoms. Be sure to discuss any herbal remedy you use with your physician because they may cause undesired side effects or otherwise interact with other medications you may be taking.
Surgery for spondylolisthesis
Except in cases of spondylolisthesis that cause severe symptoms, surgery is only recommended after traditional spondylolisthesis treatment options have failed to address the symptoms. Spondylolisthesis surgery usually involves the removal of portions of a vertebra, part or all of an intervertebral disc and/or problematic bone spurs to achieve decompression of the nerves. In some cases, a spinal fusion is performed to stabilize the vertebrae. Traditional surgical approaches to spondylolisthesis treatment are typically performed in a hospital, where the patient remains for a few days to recover after the procedure. The surgeries are completed using long incisions on the back or abdomen, through which surgeons access the spine and perform the surgery itself. In the process, the muscles of the back are often cut, which can mean a painful and lengthy healing period for patients.
Laser Spine Institute's minimally invasive outpatient surgeries provide an alternative to traditional open spine procedures. We perform several minimally invasive surgeries that can alleviate neck and back pain, as well as other symptoms associated with spinal degeneration and injuries. In contrast to traditional open spine surgeries, our procedures are completed on an outpatient basis. Our surgeons perform these surgeries using small incisions to the neck or back and avoiding any unnecessary cutting of muscles and other tissues. Our patients also experience shorter recovery times^ when compared to open spine surgeries, with about 90 percent of our patients returning to work within three months.
Our experienced surgeons complete the following outpatient minimally invasive decompression procedures:
- Discectomy — the removal of a portion of a damaged intervertebral disc to relieve pressure from a neighboring nerve root or the spinal cord
- Laminotomy — the removal of a portion – but not all – of the lamina
- Foraminotomy — the process of widening the space between two vertebrae by removing bone spurs and/or other obstructive tissue
- Facet thermal ablation — the deadening of a nerve within a facet joint in order to alleviate pain associated with degenerative arthritis
For patients who are experiencing more advanced spinal conditions, we may recommend our minimally invasive stabilization surgeries, such as:
- Decompression with Interlaminar Stabilization™ Device
- Anterior cervical discectomy fusion (ACDF)
- Transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF)
- Cervical disc replacement
- Lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF)
- Sacroiliac (SI) joint fusion
- Posterior cervical fusion
If you and your physician have determined that conservative spondylolisthesis treatment options are not working for you, there is still hope. Minimally invasive procedures, like those offered at Laser Spine Institute, use advanced technology to treat symptoms of spondylolisthesis and have a lower chance of side effects than traditional open back surgery. Visit our FAQ page to learn how our state-of-the-art procedures can help you get your life back. If you still have questions, contact us today and we will be happy to give you more information, as well as a review of your MRI.

BayHawks beat Legends for first win of season
There were seven lead changes in the final 3 minutes, and when the Erie BayHawks took the lead for good, they changed the 0 to a 1 in the win column in the eighth game of the NBA D-League season.
Veteran Ricky Davis followed Jeremy Tyler's go-ahead rebound with a tip-in of the ensuing free throw, then later tipped away a Texas pass as the BayHawks came away with their first win of the season with a thrilling 104-101 victory over the Legends on Friday before 2,683 noisy fans at Erie Insurance Arena.
The BayHawks overcame a seven-point deficit and a 35-point effort by former West Virginia star Devin Ebanks, whose final 3-point attempt to tie bounced harmlessly away.

To insert a penis into the anus. This comes from the word "fag" used as a slur for a homosexual man, but used as a verb.
Worker: "Each time I go into the boss' office, I think he's going to bend me over the desk and fag me."
Friend 1: "Did your girl let you do the third input?"
Friend 2: "Yeah dude! I fagged her!"

My husband and I spent one night here for our anniversary. Laura greeted us bright and early (we arrived much before check in just to see the inn and grounds) and gave us some suggestions to fill up our afternoon in Grafton. We were able to check in two hours early. The room was warm and inviting, the view outstanding. I travel quite a bit and have a love for the Smoky Mountains...let's just say the Tara Point Inn cottages will now be my fix when I can't get to Tennessee! I felt like I was hundreds of miles from home, when I live only 30 miles from Grafton. We will be back, and next time for more than one night. It was refreshing and lovely!!! The kitchen was stocked with wine glasses, tons of ice, soda and popcorn. Breakfast was dreamy, delicious blueberry muffins and orange juice with an incredible view of the river on a chilly winter morning. I'm in love! Hope to be back soon.

We (six lifelong girlfriends) escaped to Tara Point to celebrate one of our birthdays. From our first breathtaking glimpse of the beautiful view as we arrived at the top of the hill - we enjoyed every moment of our stay! We were welcomed and given a personal tour of the lodge. Then explored our adjoining cottages - complete with electric fireplaces, full size fridges, spacious pleasantly decorated suites with large comfy beds, cozy window seats, with books to read, en suites with both a shower and jacuzzi! Our serene getaway was the scene where we reminisced about fond memories of our childhoods. Then shared a relaxing evening, restful overnight, and breakfast - complete w/ juice, fruit, coffee & more! We created some wonderful memories & will all look forward to visiting again In the future! Strongly recommend visiting this amazing retreat on the river!

We stayed at Tara Point in November and while the trees had already turned, the view from out cottage was spectacular. The two room suite was huge and the jacuzzi was enormous. It was very clean and the real wood fireplace added to the country feel and the romantic atmosphere. While it was a bit chilly outside, the rocking chairs on the front deck were nice to sit and enjoy the night air and sounds. It really set the bar high for other bed and breakfasts since this was our first visit to a bed and breakfast. We have since tried to find a comparable b&b and have had difficulty finding one with all the great amenities that Tara Point Cottages have. While the breakfast was continental and in our fridge, we didn't rate it as high as we would have if it would've contained some more adventurous food choices. However, since we had breakfast at our disposal at any time, we were able to sleep in and didn't have to worry about missing breakfast. Overall, it was awesome and one of the most romantic nights of our marriage.

We stayed in one of the Cabins. It was very nice, clean, private and cold. On our first night, all properties lost electric at 10:30 pm. The temp outside was around 20 degrees. We tried effortlessly to reach the main house to get information regarding the blackout, but could not reach anyone. The power came back on at approximately 8:00 am the next morning. We did have a wood burning fireplace, however, we were unable to use jacuzzi, take shower or watch TV that first night. The second day and night was much better with power on. The owner, while not admitting any fault, offered another nights stay at 1/2 price. We felt that since we lost a whole evening, another night free was an appropriate compensation. She refused. I feel that because we were left in the dark and cold and not knowing if the owner even knew of the situation, better customer service would have been to offer another night at no cost.

RE? Unless you're scared by pixelated monsters and loud noises, no, they should not scare you.
spectermaster14 posted...RE? Unless you're scared by pixelated monsters and loud noises, no, they should not scare you. Remake.Petty retort wasted.So many reassurance posts from the "RE was never scary" crowd ITT. Atmosphere, tension, pacing, audio, aesthetics. Titles like Dead Space and Amnesia frighten adults easily, the same as good horror flicks. Please remove your head from your anus.
Getting back to the point I want to make, RE was "scary" in the sense that you had to worry about whether or not you could survive. RE is no longer "scary" because people don't want to worry about that and just mow down everything in their path. If you every played any of the old games, you should know that by the midway point you get enough ammo to mow everything down with ease. Even hunters don't pose a threat in the later game. RE has always been about action.
You are not allowed to request a sticky.

NFL Games
Cincinnati Bengals at Pittsburgh Steelers
Cincinnati definitely has more pressure to win this game than Pittsburgh. The Steelers have almost no chance of making the playoffs, while the Bengals are leading the division at the moment. Pittsburgh struggled badly early in the season, but they have been much better in some of their later games. If they protect the ball, and get some big stops they will hang the Bengals. Cincinnati needs to finish strong if they want to win the division, and Baltimore as their last game of the season, only adds to the pressure to win this one.The Steelers playing at home with no pressure to win, could make this a trap game for the Bengals.

Talk:Fantasy prone personality
|This article is the subject of an educational assignment at St. Charles Community College supported by WikiProject Psychology and the Wikipedia Ambassador Program during the 2011 Q3 term. Further details are available on the course page.
|WikiProject Psychology
|(Rated Start-class)
Early comments[edit]
Use the full names of Wilson and Barber. Possibly find a link for them in Wikipedia? 220.127.116.11 (talk) 01:51, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
For the line: Though various other studies have also found this link including, [2], [3], [4], and [5](Lynn and Rhue).
I would change it to something more like: Various other studies support these findings.[2][3][4][5]
Berkriots (talk) 17:11, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
This article needs references[edit]
Please provide evidence that this is considered a personality disorder by mental health professionals and is used as a diagnostic category in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders or the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems. Also, persons with personality disorders are not considered "insane". —Mattisse (Talk) 20:19, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
- But they are considered "mad".
Food For Thought[edit]
This sounds an awful lot like these people are literally "getting high" by act of will using their own brain chemicals. It says they're still aware of what's real, just that they are fantasizing.
Any articles on how they achieved this? It makes sense that it's possible. We alter our brain chemistry with every decision we make so if someone found the right techniques they could experience at least "pseudohallucinations"(most psychedelic and dissociative drug experiences are still discernible from reality and so would fall under the type of experiences an FPP has rather than a schizophrenic). Of course you'd also want to prevent yourself from starting up true hallucinations and losing control.AsItAllTurnsOver&Over (talk) 06:24, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
Unsupported claims[edit]
It strikes me that some of this is not very well written in that the author makes causal attributions that are unsupported. (e.g. 'Children who at a young age were involved in creative fantasy activities like piano, ballet, and drawing are more likely to obtain a fantasy prone personality. This is due to the child being emotionally involved into these activities') Chrismartinbrisbane (talk) 01:50, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
- You are quite right. Let's see if anybody comes with a source, and if not, we can eventually delete this statement. Lova Falk talk 09:40, 19 September 2012 (UTC)
- There are still no references for many statements in the article, but it's unclear if perhaps the material was supported by nearby references. In the above statements, for example, the preceding paragraph cited references, then listed this sentence in a followup bullet-point. I don't have easy access to the references to check. For most of the claims in the article that cited references with free online access, statements could not be verified, or were not verifiably related to FPP; I just removed several of those. I'm skeptical about some other statements, but too lazy to trudge to a research library to check the references. Agyle (talk) 22:48, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
Overactive Imagination in opening paragraph[edit]
In this deletion discussion for the former Overactive Imagination article, the consensus decision was to redirect Overactive Imagination to this article. The redirection guidelines at WP:R#PLA instructs that inbound redirects should be mentioned in the first couple paragraphs of the target article, generally in bold. While I disagree with the decision, it seems based on the argument that the term means the same thing as fantasy prone personality, and I'm not sure what else could be said about the term, so I'm including it as a synonym; two references were suggested in the deletion discussion. Agyle (talk) 23:11, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
"Famous fantasizers" section[edit]
I don't see the merit of having a section dedicated to one study's speculations about the mental conditions of long-dead people. I'm considering deleting the section, but I figure I'd post here first, in case anyone can come up with a good reason for keeping it.--126.96.36.199 (talk) 21:46, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

OSHA News Release – Region 10
U.S. Department of Labor
Region 10 News Release: #04-129
Date: Oct. 7, 2004
Contact: Jeannine Lupton
Phone: (206)553-7620
SEATTLE -- The U.S. Labor Department's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has recognized BP Exploration Alaska, Endicott Field of Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, for continued excellence in worker health and safety. A recent ceremony at the field renewed the company's participation in OSHA's Star Voluntary Protection Program (VPP) for another five years.
"BP has exhibited excellence in effective safety and health program management," said Richard Terrill, OSHA regional administrator. "Their outstanding efforts have included significant management commitment and employee involvement."
BP Exploration Alaska, Endicott Field employs approximately 120 workers who produce crude petroleum, and was initially approved as a "Star" site under OSHA's Voluntary Protection Program in December 2000.
OSHA's VPP recognizes and promotes effective workplace safety and health management. In the program, management, labor and OSHA establish a cooperative relationship at a worksite that has implemented strong safety and health systems.
VPP sites must implement safe working procedures that meet or exceed all OSHA regulatory standards and submit to an OSHA review of their programs. Companies that have been accepted into VPP represent more than 200 industries and approximately 1,130 work sites.
The role of the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration is to assure the safety and health of America's workers by setting and enforcing standards; providing training, outreach, and education; establishing partnerships; and encouraging continual improvement in workplace safety and health. For more information, visit www.osha.gov.
U.S. Labor Department releases are accessible on the Internet at http://www.dol.gov. The information in this news release will be made available in alternate format upon request (large print, Braille, audio tape or disc) from the COAST office.

First of all, don't be fooled by the title because I do not intend to give a list of actual trades that the raps should make to get these players, I am going to let you guys do the work. Instead, I will list the top ten players I think they should go after, with a couple surprises at the end, and I will let you guys propose/discuss the trades they should go about in order to land these players.
Secondly, I am only listing players at the Small Forward position, save one little surprise at the end.
I am considering players we have a chance to acquire/are available and who would be a good complement to our existing young nucleus of Andrea Bargnani, DeMar Derozan and Ed Davis. Here are some more criteria I will consider,
1. Defensive ability: Both post and perimeter,
2. Rebounding ability: Andrea Bargnani is a poor rebounder, I am aware of that, however, rather than continuously know him for that, event though he has been showing improvement, I propose that we find a Small Forward who can rebound and make up for Bargnani weakness in that area of his game.
- Younger Players: For younger players I am looking for potential, hustle, energy and willingness to work on their game.
- Veteran Players: I am looking for experienced veterans, with high energy who can be a leader and mentor for this young team.

Technically, technically, technically the summer doesn't end until the 21st of September. The sun is still shining over parts of this occasionally beautiful land and somewhere, someone is still playing cricket. But I'm calling it. The end of summer. Because the longer the summer goes on, the more I fall out of love with movies. And I really do love movies.
So I'm laying to rest a summer full of disappointing sequels, average re-imaginings, too many films (i.e two) about toys and that 'one with the specky wizard git'. In my humble opinion this has been one of the poorest summers on record, Blockbuster-wise.
True, some little gems passed through in the form of 'Synechdoche, New York' and 'Moon' and Tarantino helped us pasty skinned film geeks out with 'Inglourious Basterds' but there was no BIG summer film. No 'Jurassic Park', No 'Dark Knight', nothing to get all hepped up about.
Well, maybe the winter is the new summer, for here are five blockbusters that might, just might give the multiplexes a much needed kick up the backside.
Its the end of the world as we know it and I feel slightly scared about Roland Emmerich's state of mind. This is not the first time he's tried to recreate the destruction of us lovely humans. First he did it figuratively with 'Independence Day' and 'The Day After Tomorrow' and then he literally tried to kill everyone by making them watch 'Godzilla' and '10,000BC'. Bad man.
Now he's back with an apocaylyptic prophecy movie featuring the whole world going kablooey. It looks about as intelligent as Kerry Katona at the end of a coke binge with nothing but explosions and screaming to keep you company for two hours. So why does a film this dumb possibly make my 'worth a watch' list? It has John 'Boy' Cusack in it. 'And I love him'.
Nothing, nothing, nothing in the world can possibly be as good as 'WALL-E'. Or so I thought. But judging by the critical reception on the other side of the Atlantic and the word of mouth from some fellow projectionists I know whose word I more than trust, 'Up' may well eclipse my favourite 'little robot'. While Pixar have chosen the abhorrent '3-D format' to release this in, the consensus is the 2-D version is far superior. But it can't really be better than 'WALL-E'...
New Moon
The shiny, glittering vampires are back. The first wasn't as terrible as 'I'd thought' it might be and there's no doubting the absolute fucking gorgeousness of the leads (although Pattison's monobrow scares me a little). If all else fails just close your eyes and enjoy the soundtrack of Radiohead, Muse, Bon Iver and Death Cab For Cutie, all releaseing 'new' material to accompany the painfully long shots of teenagers looking at each other. As for the title I do wonder how many 'Twi-hards' went to see the Sam Rockwell, sci-fi thinker, hoping it was the the second instalment of their favourite 'emo' fest. I can only pray it was lots.
Sherlock Holmes
It's got Robert Downey Jr in it! Yay! It's got Jude Law in it! Boo! It's directed by Guy Ritchie! Meh. One of the most intriguing prosepects of the autumn/winter calender it's been a long time since Holmes and Watson graced our screens. Can the erstwhile detective, one of the most often recreated stories of all time, hold up under the scurtiny of today's 'ten second attention span' culture? I do remember that once- "Oooh look wrestling!"
This film is literally gonna change absolutely everything ever. From the way movies are perceived to how people shit on a toilet. Well, that's if you believe Jim Cameron's hyperbole. When the trailer hit last week the reaction was, at best, muted. But the self-professed 'King Of The World' always seems to have the last laugh so write him off at your peril. Still, the internet geeks have a point when they say it looks like 'Ferngully: The Computer Game'.
Lat me know what you think below. Do any of these make you go a bit funny in your pants? Does the idea of Jude as Watson make you wanna shove 'a lemon tree' up his arse? (Ha!, Damn that's funny!) Are there any I've missed out on? We're just talking big-budget blockbusters this time around. A run-down of the quirky-indie films that are as twee as the day is long will be on these here pages soon enough. Those are the ones I really love.

'Yara's voice was where it all began, inspiring my melodies, which in turn inspired Yara's words in French... which in turn inspired Ed Harcourt's words in English.
Yara'n'Yared was born, a musical duo with a shared passion and desire to create timeless songs together.
Recorded at Abbey Road Studios, this album I have produced is the quintessence of my musical universe, combining the very spirit of Yara'n'Yared - a duo united as one in perfect harmony.'
- Gabriel Yared
Gabriel Yared is a world renowned film composer, having written for a number of films including Betty Blue, The Lover, The English Patient, The Lives Of Others, City of Angels, The Talented Mr Ripley and Cold Mountain.
He won an Academy Award, Grammy and BAFTA for his score for The English Patient, and was nominated for The Talented Mr Ripley and Cold Mountain.
With this Yara'n'Yared album, Gabriel Yared returns to what he describes as his greatest passion, composing and producing songs.

This product is the only non-sugar sweetener that I use. Other sugar alcohols including xylitol, maltitol and sucralose either leave a disagreeable aftertaste, cause intestinal problems or both.
Great for treats

Sony Xperia Tablet S Review
Final Thoughts
Sony's Tablet S is a good tablet, but it is far from great. It looks great, it feels great, but as with most companies, they ruin it by not giving me, you and the rest of the consumers out there the pure Android experience.
I've got a feeling I'm going to write nearly the same "Final Thoughts" on virtually all smart devices I review until we get more of the pure Android experience, but this is what I want to bring my readers - the complete and utter truth, from my personal experiences with these devices.
Sony and the rest of the companies out there should be offering a ROM with stock Android on it. I've said this previously, and I think going into this year, these companies are going to need to start thinking long and hard about it. We're going to be looking at Google pushing their Nexus platform with Motorola by their side and it's not going to be much fun for companies like Sony.
Pushing that to the side, should you get the Tablet S? Well, let's ask you a few questions. Do you already have a tablet? If not, then this is a formidable tablet for you. Do you already have a tablet? One of the first-generation Android tablets? This again makes the Tablet S a good recommendation. Do you have a current tablet, something like the iPad or Nexus 7? No, definitely not. The Tablet S doesn't compete.
Then, we get into pricing: at between $399-$599, the Tablet S is on the expensive side. Google's Nexus 10 is the same price at the same 16GB and 32GB variants, which makes the Tablet S impossible to recommend.
I feel like Sony - and everyone else - needs to stand out from the rest. Don't just think of aesthetics, because that's half the tale. They need to do something different, but I don't know what that is apart from offering stock Android ROM's, as discussed above. The tablet world is a very big one, but it seems that there's not many apart from Google and Apple who are taking it really serious right now.
These tablets coming out feel like these companies are thinking "here's a tablet for now, buy this one, while we work on another tablet you'll want in six months' time". Rinse, repeat. Consumerism at its best, folks.

WILMINGTON HISTORICAL SOCIETY TO PRESENT "Dog Days: Stories of Dogs in the Adirondacks"—August 19Friday, August 19— 7 pm The Wilmington Historical Society will present "Dog Days: Stories of Dogs in the Adirondacks" with historian and author Hallie E. Bond. The program will be held at the Wilmington Community Center on Springfield Road in Wilmington. Scottie, Gardie and Lucy were important characters in Adirondack history. Never heard of them? Their stories, and the stories of countless others like them, haven't been told because they were dogs. In "Dog Days," Hallie Bond uses oral tradition, photographs, works of art, diaries, and news articles to put an historic perspective on a widely popular subject. The Adirondack region is the setting. This mountainous, rural region was ranged over by the Iroquois and the Abenaki and their dogs before Europeans moved in. Then, in the nineteenth and the twentieth centuries, settlers, commercial loggers and urban vacationers—and their dogs--- all came. Traditional ways of life were juxtaposed with modern thought and urban ideas. Adirondack dogs have been –and are---hunters, companions, herders, guards, beasts of burden and status symbols. How has our concept of sportsmanship changed over time and why? What is a pet? Do concepts of "sportsmanship" and "pets" depend on whether we're rural or urban? What is the new work of dogs?
Hallie E. Bond has written extensively on regional history and material culture since joining the Adirondack Museum in 1983. Her books include "Boats and Boating in the Adirondacks" (1995) and "A Paradise for Boys and Girls: Children's Camps in the Adirondacks" (2005). Ms. Bond has a B.A. in History (University of Colorado), an M.A. in Medieval Studies (University of York) and an M.A. in American History with a Certificate in Museum Studies (University of Delaware).
Refreshments for this program are provided by the Country Bear Bakery in Wilmington. For further information, contact the Wilmington Historical Society at 518-420-8370 or email email@example.com
WILMINGTON HISTORICAL SOCIETY TO PRESENT "Digging Into Pictures: Dating Photos by Fashion" - Friday, July 8thWILMINGTON – The Wilmington Historical Society will present "Digging Into Pictures: Dating Photos by Fashion" with speaker Margaret Bartley to be held on Friday, July 8th at 7 pm at the Wilmington Community Center. This program is designed to how to date old photos by the style of dress and fashion. It will cover a period of 80 years between the dates of 1840 – 1920 and will show old photos to show how styles changed during that period. Dating old photos is a great help to anyone interested in history, genealogy or simply has old unidentified or undated family photos.
Margaret Bartley is a Trustee with the Essex County Historical Society. She is a historian, author and teacher, and wrote a biography of the famous Russian American cellist Gregor Piatigorsky, titled GRISHA, which won the 2005 Adirondack Literary Award. She is a former Elizabethtown Supervisor and is currently working with Historian Sharp Swan to create a comprehensive history of the Civil War's 118th New York Infantry, known as the "Adirondack Regiment". Bartley spent 26 years teaching History and Government, and has a Master's Degree in Creative Writing from Johns Hopkins University. Her popular slide shows, which cover many aspects of Essex County History, are offered every summer at the Adirondack History Museum in Elizabethtown.
The program is free and open to the public. Refreshments will be provided by the Country Bear Bakery in Wilmington. For further information, contact the Wilmington Historical Society at 518-420-8370.

A New Book-"Wilmington & the Whiteface Region" is here!
Now one of the Images of America series by Arcadia Publishing, Wilmington and the Whiteface Region is authored by the Wilmington Historical Society.
About the book:
While the year-round population of Wilmington has never been more than 1200, it swells to about 3.000 residents on average during the summer months, with 400,000 tourists visiting annually. As a small town in the Adirondack Mountains, Wilmington's history spans 2 centuries, transforming from its agricultural and industrial roots to a popular four-season tourist resort. We are proud to have been able to put the history of our town into context with our book Wilmington and the Whiteface Region, with photographs and information of interest for residents and tourists alike. The 11 contributing authors of Wilmington and the Whiteface Region, each with a unique area of expertise, are Laurie Bepler, Nancy Cressey, Robert J. Cressey, Gilbert Dyke, Linda Joss-Dyke, Merri C. Peck, Karen Marshall Peters, Robert Peters, Julie Robards, Guy Stephenson Jr., and Douglas A. Wolfe. It is an ideal "memory book" for local past and present residents. We know that residents and others with ties to Wilmington will take pride in re-forming their identity through the history of their town. It makes a unique "souvenir" book for tourists whether they visit one or more of our attractions of Whiteface Mountain, Whiteface Mountain Highway, Whiteface Ski Center/summer gondola ride, High Falls Gorge, and Santa's Workshop, or whether they come here to ski, fish, hike or bike or just relax and refresh their personal spirit and appreciation of life. We wish to encourage visitors to not just come once, but to return again and again to enjoy all that our town has to offer it can be purchased from the Wilmington Historical Society, at local gift shops and stores, and in book outlets such as Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble.
