Euro-vulnerable banksThe crisis did not originate in Europe, but it is proving most severe and intractable there. In terms of the real economy, Europe is registering the worst declines in output, highest unemployment, and highest rates of company bankruptcies. In the financial sector, the convulsions in the market for European government debt are without precedent among developed countries, and the fragility of the banking system is worrisome. Neutralizing the financial problems is crucial to the economic recovery. The stability of the eurozone is also at stake. The very viability of the common currency is now in question. Banks in Europe are under pressure not just because of their exposure to bad loans to construction firms, real-estate developers and households. All banks in Europe continue to suffer, in spite of the help that both governments and the European Central Bank have made available to them since the beginning of the crisis. Italian and Spanish banks are among the worst hit, although the government has not yet had to rescue any of the biggest ones. The situation in these countries is especially delicate because banks are the biggest intermediaries in the financial system. Unlike in the U.S. or the U.K., banks are the most important source of funds for companies, given the relative underdevelopment of the markets for corporate equity and debt. It is not surprising that Italian and Spanish banks have taken advantage of the European Central Bank's funding lines to a much greater extent than other eurozone banks. This effort to shore up their balance sheets has amounted to not much more than a "placebo effect" because of the devastating combination of financial problems and slow growth in the economy. It is important to keep in mind that a significant share of the funds obtained by European banks from Frankfurt has been used to purchase government bonds. Nobody expects moving forward the European Central Bank to offer such attractive funds to the banks in terms of the magnitude and the nature of the collateral. As a result, both the market for public debt and the market for bank equities are in for a slide. Therefore, the trend is for a national compartmentalization of the market for government debt in Europe as more of it is held by banks of the same country, just the opposite of what many economists and analysts think would be necessary to save the euro. This represents a most paradoxical situation in that the way in which the European Central Bank has intervened is having the effect of undermining the long-term viability of the common currency. The perverse relationship between banks' balance sheets and the market for public debt in Europe creates a conundrum for the credit rating agencies. They are concerned not only about the vicious cycle resulting from the increasingly domestic character of bond-holding within the currency union, but also about the lack of economic growth and the return to recession of several economies. After nearly four years of crisis, it seems reasonable to predict that debt obligations won't be met without economic growth. The IMF has noted that further deleveraging might lead to a deepening of the recession. Banks' core capital ratios will continue to deteriorate due to higher rates of non-performing loans, and we still have not figured out how to jump start wholesale financing for banks. If bank recapitalization is necessary to generate confidence and to help credit flow to the real economy, someone must provide the funds. Right now, with banks priced at 40 percent of their book value on average, the only source of fresh funds is the government, which takes us back to the problems in the market for public debt. The way out of the crisis seems to be either a concerted action by the surplus governments or help from outside the eurozone. Mauro F.

Lassen Community College soccer comes out of the gate hot
The Lassen Community College men's soccer team poses together at the beach during its trip to Salinas, Calif. to play Hartnell College in its first match of the season. Lassen won the game, 2-1, against Harnell, a team that was ranked 20th in the nation in pre-season rankings. Photos submitted |
Aug. 29 — The men's and women's soccer teams of Lassen Community College traveled to play their first matches of the season Tuesday, Aug. 27 and proved they are a force to be reckoned with. The Cougars beat their opponent, Hartnell College, and the Lady Cougars tied with San Joaquin Delta.
The Cougars traveled to Salinas, Calif. to take on the Hartnell College Panthers, a team that made it to last year's playoffs and ranked number 20 in the nation in pre-season rankings. Lassen beat the Cougars, 2-1, in a game head coach Ben Wade described as "back and forth."
It was an eight-hour trip to get there, so the team didn't hesitate when they had the opportunity to stretch and work out their muscles on the beach before the game. Apparently the beach workout was a good idea, as the Cougars, who were not ranked in pre-season, fought hard and claimed a victory over the Panthers.
"To go on the road and beat the 20th team in the nation for the first game of the season is a great thing to do," Wade said, "I felt like we played a little shaky in the first half … in the second half our defense was much more organized."
England natives Loong Ly and Krish Patel teamed up to allow Ly to score a goal, giving Lassen a 1-0 lead going into halftime. Dani Gonzalez, of Red Bluff, scored the second goal, with another assist from Patel, who Wade described as the "leader in the mid-field." According to Wade, Josh Jirbandey "anchored the defense" for the Cougars. Another notable performance came from Oliver Rosa, the goalkeeper from France, who saved eight shots during the game.
Approximately 140 miles away, the Lady Cougars were also playing fiercely against the San Joaquin Delta Lady Mustangs, a team that beat Lassen, 8-1, last year.
According to Wade, the first 20 minutes of the game were tough for the Lady Cougars, who received an onslaught of aggressive offense from the Lady Mustangs. Luckily for Lassen, Barbara Lazarini was tending the goal. "She just had an outstanding game … she saved like 15 shots," Wade said.
Then, the Lady Cougars made a comeback and began playing with an intensity to match their opponent.
"The team had to really just believe in themselves," Wade said, "the girls stepped up to the plate."
According to Wade, Julie "Brazil" Matos made a kick from about 35 yards out to score Lassen's goal, tying the game.
On Wednesday, Aug. 28 the men's team traveled to Monterey to take on Monterey Peninsula College. The Cougars came back from being down, 1-0, to win the match, 3-1. Jirbandey, Cozza Cosgrave and Soeren Gelbrecht each scored a goal for Lassen.
The Lady Cougar's next match is tomorrow, Wednesday, Sept. 4 at Marin College. The men's team plays Friday, Sept. 6 at Mt. San Antonio College.

after all that brick;
There's even a very pleasing Hawaii connection in the person of the athletic
Shane "The Flyin` Hawaiian" Victorino.
He always seems to be in the thick of it!
"Your Daily Hawaii Vacation"
Go Phillies!! Love the pictures and the video! :)
Baseball has always been a magical sport to me. It's so infused with lore and humanity and community that it's difficult to walk into a ballyard and not feel a greater presence.
Your touching perspective reminds me of my own childhood experiences with my dad, walking through the rough neighborhood where he grew up before we headed down to the game (the Montreal Expos, alas.)
The memories that outlive the man are among the most powerful we have, and are more influential in how we become the people we are than we casually appreciate.
Sometimes, I swear I've crossed your path previously. In a good way, of course. Thank you for this wonderful reflection, especially on this day.
My Yankees lost, but Philly is a very similar city with as loud a pulse. I have very fond memories of the old Yankee Stadium recently torn down, same kind, different city. Go Phillies and Aloha !Sending good luck honks to you from the Big Apple! ;)
Aw, that's great! What great memories, too!! It's so great to have that website and video to bring them back. I grew up with the Cincinnati Reds and Crosley Field.
Go Phillies!!
And Aloha to you, Cloudia!
Glad you have some happy memories of your childhood. Way to go, Cloudia!
wishing you a lovely time with your ghosts ;-}
Thank you HulaBuns.
Carmi, What can I say? Wonderful comment.
Honk! Cabbie :)
Used to watch the Reds with Pete Rose play at the Vet, Aunty!
Aloha, GiGi
Mahalo, Tammie :)
I am rooting for your team since my team (er, that is, my player) is out. Philly is such an awesome city, so full of so much that is wonderful about America, I hope they get to lift that trophy high.
namaste /\ from mumbai
Go, team, go! We're watching. US teams, nothing to do with us. BUt it is good ball. And a fun game.
On a cold night, with snow last night, nice to see green.
Go Phillies!
Love you guys :)
I have been a NY Mets fan since 1969, and so have never rooted for the Phillies. But I would have to feel very good about their chances of getting to and winning the World Series once again if I were a fan.
I love the memories of attending sporting events and playing sports, and especially with family. I relate, as you do, to the awe of the spectacular green field opening up in the heart of a large city and in the middle of a building. That awe struck image was even more memorable when I saw it in my daughter's eyes as she stepped out of the tunnel and viewed the field of Shea Stadium in 1996.
Great post.
Hey Cloudia,
There is something so grand about the old ballparks. I'm watching the playoffs as I write this. Have to confess, being a left coaster, I'm rooting for the Giants. Thanks for visiting and leaving comments. Really appreciate that.
Thanks for stopping by, Cloudia! I grew up in Phila.!!! Great memories.
Lisa xoxo
G' Day From Australia, Ok i know i'm from another country and don't really understand how baseball is played but i hope your team the Phillies wins on the day good luck.
Oh gosh! Thanks for these amazing moments of sharing
That's alot of old Hometown Team Spirit!
I've always loved baseball myself- n the Philles have done very well this year.
Great collection of pics you found for this post-
I went to Fenway with my Dad first when I was 7. His boss n pal used to lend him some of his season tix. Something i too will always remember-
Win or lose- hope you have a great week-end (I work week-ends...)
Have a great time, Cloudia. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you even though I don't follow baseball.
Very good video and photo! Baseball has always been a interesting sport to me - I wish you all the best for this Sunday morning.
Although I don't know anything about baseball. I hope that your team winns. Thanks for sharing your memories!
Hartelijke groeten uit Nederland!
♥ Olá, amiga!
Passei para uma visitinha...♥♥
Memórias... recordar é viver!...♥
♥ Boa semana!
♥♥ Itabira
Great pictures and the video too.
Great pics! Thanks for sharing...
Great pictures and video!
What a lovely post, Cloudia, and what an interesting sport this sounds! And the sense of love in your descriptions is wonderful.
I'm so glad to be back, dear friend!
sorry they could not pull it out for you...a great game though...i have wonderful memories of baseball...aloha from VA....
Baseball, like they say, as American as apple pie.
What a digital scrapbook of visible memories.
I have a daily photo blog; however, now I can see the value of also having a more personal blog.
Thank you for your visit...
To quote Ernie Harwell the Detroit Baseball announcing legend "He let that one go by like a house standing on the side of the road."
That last pitch was a ball, low and outside. I guess the home plate umpire wanted to go home. Crossed the plate below his knees.
Amazing photos and videos, darling!
Spent the day watching football yesterday and probably today. Not much of a baseball fan.
Good luck to your special team, but, erm, Cloudia, erm,
I don't understand who or what they are, erm. sorry.
As for memories, of whatever nature, they are who and what we are.
Hope things went well, Cloudia!
Some wonderful memories!
You folks are wonderful

[do action="gallery" title="15 New Hairstyles"/] [do action="gallery-slide"]
Conquer Frizz (-5 Years)
Invest in humidity-resistant hair care (we like It's a 10 Miracle Leave-In Potion Plus Keratin), and look for words like "smoothing" and "sleek" when shopping for shampoo and conditioner. You might be tempted to skip conditioner because you think it will weigh your hair down, but in-shower moisturizing is key for preventing frizz. (Yarok Feed Your Volume Conditioner is designed for this very purpose — lightweight frizz control.)
After your shower, gently blot hair dry with a microfiber hair towel. Rubbing with a regular towel is a one-way ticket to Frizzville.
QUIZ: How Old Does Your Hair Look?Stop the Split End Cycle (-8 Years)
On the evolutionary scale of things, young hair is healthy enough to withstand daily wear-and-tear. As hair ages, its thinner, stiffer texture can't handle the same bending and stress. Broken, sticking-up pieces and fuzzy, frayed ends make your hair look older
The only way to get rid of split ends is to cut them off, so schedule regular trims every six weeks. That alone will make your hair look infinitely healthier.
Minimize heat styling as best you can, and work deep conditioning hair masks into the rotation. Brush and comb delicately. Wet strands are more prone to breakage, so use a wide-tooth comb and gently work out the tangles out from the ends up.
Tight ponytails in the same place every day can stretch the hair until strands snap. Let your hair down now and again, and never rip the bands out. Gently unwind, ok?
Switch Up Your Color (-10 Years)
One of the hallmark signs of aging is gray hair, but at least it's decently easy to cover, right?
If you want to cover grays, there are a few things to keep in mind. (And if you don't, there are ways to go gray, gracefully.) If you dye your hair a uniform, dark color, be prepared for the upkeep. Hair grows a half an inch a month, so your roots will look like a beacon in the night against dark color.
For more manageable maintenance, talk to your colorist about a lighter shade, or simply add some strategic highlights throughout your hair to help blend the gray.
Also, make friends with wash-out root touch-ups. Check your local beauty supply store or search online for brands such as Touchback and Gray Away. Root touch-ups come in marker form, spray-on and powder, so it will take some experimenting to find the formula that works best for you.
Tackle Thinning Strands (-15 Years)
As much as 30 percent of women will experience some sort of hair thinning, usually first noticed with age as a skinnier ponytail or when you see more visible scalp peeking out. Thick hair screams "youth," which makes thinning a tough pill to swallow.
Playing around with your haircut can mask the issue, so talk to your stylist about adding volume and bounce. Adding thickening products (such as Pantene AgeDefy Advanced Thickening Treatment) to your beauty arsenal can help, too.
Then look to finding out the root of the problem (ooh, bad joke). A healthy-hair diet can work wonders on strengthening disappearing strands, as can certain supplements, such as biotin.

Mandy Moore
Mandy Moore
She was never as successful in the teen beat scene (nor as scandalous) as peers Britney and Christina, but Mandy Moore quietly made her own way from the child-star breeding ground of Orlando, Fla. (where her regular sporting-event gigs earned her the nickname "National Anthem Girl"), to a career in music and acting. Signed to Sony in 1999, Moore released her debut that year to mediocre reviews. I Wanna Be with You, a repackaged version of the same album, came out the following year and fared slightly better. The lukewarm critical reception didn't stop Moore from becoming an "it" girl in other ways, landing a Neutrogena spokesmodel job and appearing in films such as A Walk to Remember (her first lead) and Saved. In 2003, the former teen princess reinvented herself as an adult-alternative artist with Coverage,
a collection of rather elegant covers of artists such as Joni Mitchell and Carole King that garnered some critical approval but sold so poorly that Moore's label dropped her. She came back with 2007's Wild Hope (released by the Firm), the first album on which Moore wrote or co-wrote every song, working with artists such as Rachael Yamagata and Lori McKenna.

Capistrano Meteorite
- ‹ Previous program
- 75 of 2173
- Next program ›
The swallows are coming back to Capistrano. A week-long celebration kicks off today at Mission San Juan Capistrano, where the little birds have migrated for decades.
It won't get much attention, but another visitor from above descended on the California town 35 years ago tonight: a meteorite -- a rock from beyond Earth. It crashed into the roof of a carport and split into two pieces. The owners found the biggest piece the next morning on the floor of the carport. They found a much smaller piece about a month later while cleaning the gutter.
The pieces didn't add up to much -- about two ounces in all. But the meteorite represents a treasure to scientists, because it helps them understand more about the early solar system.
The San Juan Capistrano meteorite is classified as a chondrite. That means it contains small bits of rock that long ago melted then resolidified. Astronomers believe that chondrites formed at the same time as Earth and the other planets of our solar system. As a result, they may reflect the composition of the original cloud of gas and dust from which the planets formed -- four and a half billion years ago.
This meteorite is especially valuable because it was picked up within hours of landing, so scientists know it wasn't changed by exposure to Earth's atmosphere. It should preserve a good sampling of the materials present at the birth of the planets.

John Buchanan: The 'Ned Flanders' of Cricket
John Buchanan, the former Australia men's national cricket team coach, was born on 5 April 1953 at Ipswich, Queensland. Buchanan, who is also known in cricketing circles as 'Ned Flanders', due to his similarity in appearance to The Simpsons character, played only seven first-class matches in his career; but as Queensland coach he helped the state win their first Sheffield Shield title in 1994-95. Buchanan was appointed as Australia coach in October 1999, and was at the helm for 15 of Australia's record-breaking 16 consecutive Test wins and when they won the World Cups in 2003 and 2007. Buchanan was also the coach when Australia won the Champions Trophy in 2006 and inflicted a 5-0 whitewash on England in the 2006-07 Ashes Series, the first since 1920-21 in the Ashes Series. Though widely regarded as an innovative and groundbreaking coach, Buchanan's unorthodox methods raised a few eyebrows and Shane Warne was dismissive about his role in the team; but former captain Ricky Ponting credits him as being one of the important reasons Australia completed their World Cup hat trick of wins. After quitting as Australia's coach, Buchanan was at the helm of Kolkata Knight Riders for two turbulent years. In May 2011, Buchanan was appointed to the role of Director of Cricket for New Zealand Cricket.

USGS Surface Water Information
USGS to Discontinue Streamgages Due to Sequestration: The U.S.Geological Survey (USGS) will discontinue operation of up to 375 streamgages nationwide due to budget cuts as a result of sequestration. Additional streamgages may be affected if partners reduce their funding to support USGS streamgages. The USGS is working to identify which streamgages will be impacted and will post this information as it becomes available. Streamgages are used nationwide to predict and address drought and flood conditions by monitoring water availability. The USGS and over 850 Federal, State, and local agencies cooperatively fund the USGS streamgaging network, which consists of over 8,000 streamgages. When budget fluctuations occur, the network is impacted.

Width: 15 3/8 inches
Depth: 14 7.8 inches
13-ply baltic birch plywood, shipped unassembled and unfinished - assembly instructions and hardware included.
About "Skywater":
In the summer of 1941, writer Dagmar Doneghy Beach and her husband, University of Minnesota English professor Joseph Warren Beach, returned to Minnesota after a summer sabbatical at Harvard. The Beaches commissioned Minneapolis architects Elizabeth Scheu and Winston Close to design, build and furnish a weekend retreat at a cost of $1200 on the St. Croix River.
Although near the Twin Cities, the site was rustic and isolated. Local contractors built the two-room cabin into a steep hillside, 150 feet above the river, from native stone, glass and wood and topped it with a flat sod roof. Dagmar named it "Skywater."
With a $50 budget for furnishings, the architects designed and constructed most of the furniture themselves. Using inexpensive fir plywood they built a stool, dining/game table and chairs with clothesline backs. The furniture's simple geometric forms and use of common materials embody the tenets of modernist design, which sought to break away completely from the historic styles of the past.
Today, these furniture pieces, a gift of Elizabeth and Winston Close, are in the collections of the Minnesota Historical Society. They are valued additions to the Society's growing collection of architect-designed furniture and also document the range of styles found in Minnesotans' recreational homes.
Idealism and innovation are the guiding principles of Close Associates, the architecural firm founded by Elizabeth Scheu and Winton Close. Close, from Appleton, Wis., graduated from the University of Minnesota in 1927. Scheu, who grew up in Vienna in a house designed by Adolf Loos, received her undergraduate degree in architecture from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1934. Members of the first gheneration of modernists, the Closes met in graduate school at MIT where they received Master of Architecture degrees in 1935. They designed over 150 custom homes throughout the United States before selling Close Associates to Gar Hargens in 1987.

University welcomes new vice president of alumni and development
Stucky to start Nov. 22
ANGOLA — This month, Trine University will welcome a new vice president who has years of educational experience that spans the globe.
Kent D. Stucky, a Berne, Ind., native will start his new position as vice president for alumni and development Nov. 22. He replaces Bob Remington, who will now serve as vice president emeritus and as major gifts officer who will cover and travel the eastern region of the United States.
Remington served the university as vice president for development during its very successful $90 million Vision for the Future campaign before retiring in August 2007. He returned to serve, again, in that capacity in October 2009 and will continue on the staff as the institution moves forward to kick off its next capital campaign.
"Kent not only has years of experience as a seasoned development officer in the educational realm and as an attorney, he brings a sense of the global community to Trine," said Earl D. Brooks II, president of Trine University. "He will help us achieve our goals as we move forward with the planning of our next capital campaign, which will help fund multiple projects, scholarships and endowments."
Stucky will bring nearly 20 years of higher education experience to Trine. Most recently, he served as the associate vice president for university development at Loyola University in Chicago. While there, he helped to secure a $20 million commitment — at that time, the largest in the school's history. He also directed the university's $500 million capital campaign, which met its goal three years ahead of schedule.
Prior to his time at Loyola, he worked as the vice president for institutional advancement at Goshen College where he exceeded a $22 million music building campaign goal.
"My experience in all areas of institutional advancement and development at a number of institutions has prepared me to serve and lead at Trine," Stucky said. "I'm excited for the opportunity to serve at a progressive university making big strides toward the future."
Stucky is a native of Berne, Ind. He graduated from Goshen College in 1973, and he earned a juris doctorate from Lewis and Clark Law School in Portland, Ore., in 1978. He later pursued a Master of Arts in theological studies from Mennonite Biblical Seminary in Elkhart, Ind., in 1997.
He worked with the Mennonite Central Committee in the 1980s and '90s to initiate and administer community health, medical, economic, educational and agricultural development programs in the West Bank and Gaza. He also helped sponsor a dialogue initiative between Israelis and Palestinians.

Ohio brothers fight birth control mandate
The Daily Briefing
Buckeye Forum Podcast
The Dispatch public affairs team talks politics and tackles state and federal government issues in the Buckeye Forum podcast.
Your Right to Know
A lawsuit challenging part of the federal health-care overhaul on behalf of two Catholic business owners in Ohio argues that a requirement for contraception coverage contradicts their religious beliefs and violates their constitutional rights.
The American Center for Law and Justice, which opposes abortion, sued the federal Health and Human Services, Labor and Treasury departments and their leaders on Thursday in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., on behalf of Francis Gilardi Jr. and Philip Gilardi.
The brothers run produce-processing and transportation businesses in the western Ohio city of Sidney and have about 400 employees between their companies, Freshway Foods and Freshway Logistics.
The brothers have excluded contraceptives, sterilization and other drugs from their company health insurance for the past decade but would be required to provide that coverage starting this spring or face crippling fines and penalties — totaling more than $14 million annually — under the health-care rule, the ACLJ said.
"The government is requiring them to enter into a contract and to pay for things that they find morally objectionable, and they just want to be able to continue what they've been doing," ACLJ senior counsel Edward White said yesterday.
Officials in President Barack Obama's administration have said their goal is to give women access to important care, not limit religious freedom. The Justice Department said yesterday that it had no comment on the case.

kabam koc misted city exploit
We the undersigned are petitioning Kabam, the makers of Kingdoms of Camelot, to fix an exploit with the way they deal with misted (hidden) players. The misting function is designed to permit users to temporarily hide their cities from attack while they are away for holidays or other reasons and cannot reasonably respond to attacks made against their cities. A two-part exploit used by some users of the game enables them to find the location of misted cities in under 2 to 10 minutes with minimal difficulty.
- The first request is a hack of the javascript code that allows the user to bookmark a misted location (and yes, you do have to cheat to do it because you're not supposed to be able to bookmark). The server response is: requestType=BOOKMARK_LOCATION&tileId=310393&bookmarkName=City(719%2C+342)
- The second request to tileBookmark.php exposes the owner of the misted city. requestType=GET_BOOKMARK_INFO which in this case has returned: {"bookmarkId":"240888","name":"City(719, 342)","tileId":"310393","xCoord":"719","yCoord":"342","tileLevel":"9","tileCItyId":"102471","tileUserId":"4468439","cityId":"102471","cityUserId":"4468439","cityStatus":"1","cityName":"City6","userName":"TigerRus"}}}

Bexhill bow-wow has life-saving knowhow
12:00pm Tuesday 11th September 2012 in News
A heroic dog saved his owner's life when a fire broke out in her house.
Janice Lambert's hearing dog Marti heard the smoke alarm and alerted her by using his paw.
The pair have now been named as finalists for the Heroic Partnership of the Year category of the Specsavers Hearing Dog Awards 2012.
Janice, 59, of Bexhill, was sitting in her lounge last March when a fire broke out in her kitchen.
Marti knew something was wrong and touched Janice with his paw, before leading her to the kitchen.
She said: "He was visibly shaking but led me to the kitchen doorway. I immediately saw the hob, walls and cupboards all alight with flames leaping up to the ceiling above it."
Marti led her to safety away from flames that were several feet high.
Janice was able to alert a passerby, who called 999.
After putting out the blaze fire fighters told Janice she had narrowly avoided life-threatening injuries and praised Marti's quick actions.
Janice said: "The fire brigade later told me I had less than five minutes to get out.
"Marti had saved my life. It was very frightening but Marti is my hero."
A panel of celebrity judges will honour a selection of some of the 750 hearing dog partnerships.
Last year's awards saw famous names such as Esther Rantzen, David Bellamy and Chemmy Alcott attend the event.
Michele Jennings, chief executive at Hearing Dogs for Deaf People, said: "The awards will not only be a chance to celebrate the charity's life-changing work, but also an opportunity to highlight some of the truly incredible personal stories our recipients have to tell. All hearing dog partnerships help to alleviate some of the loneliness, stress and anxiety that hearing loss can often bring."
The awards ceremony will be held at the Honourable Artillery Company in Central London on Thursday 18 October.

Also .."After putting outthe blaze firefighters told Janice she had narrowly avoided life-threatening injuries and praised Marti's quick actions"
But Marti is a male dog and is the subject in the sentence thus it is his owner, but her dog.

Physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R), also known as physiatry /fɨˈzaɪ.ətri/ or rehabilitation medicine, is a branch of medicine that aims to enhance and restore functional ability and quality of life to those with physical impairments or disabilities. A physician having completed training in this field is referred to as a physiatrist or rehabilitation medicine specialist. Physiatrists specialize in restoring optimal function to people with injuries to the muscles, bones, tissues, and nervous system (such as stroke patients).[1]
Scope of the field
Common conditions that are treated by the rehabilitation therapists include amputation, spinal cord injury, sports injury, stroke, musculoskeletal pain syndromes such as low back pain, fibromyalgia, and traumatic brain injury. Cardiopulmonary rehabilitation involves optimizing function in those afflicted with heart or lung disease. Chronic pain management is achieved through a multidisciplinary approach involving psychologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, exercise therapists, anesthesiologist, and interventional procedures when indicated. In addition to the previous methodology, stroke is often treated with the help of a speech therapist and recreational therapist when possible.[2]
The term 'physiatry' was coined by Dr. Frank H. Krusen in 1938. The term was accepted by the American Medical Association in 1946. The field grew notably during World War II to accommodate the large number of injured soldiers.[3]
The major concern that PM&R deals with as a medical field is the ability of a person to function optimally within the limitations placed upon them by a disabling impairment or disease process for which there is no known cure. The emphasis is not on the full restoration to the premorbid level of function, but rather the optimization of the quality of life for those not able to achieve full restoration. A team approach to chronic conditions is emphasized to coordinate care of patients. Comprehensive Rehabilitation is provided by specialists in this field, who act as a facilitator, team leader, and medical expert for rehabilitation.

Sometimes, adversity has a funny way of turning into opportunity.
That's the lesson that the dedicated group of environmentalists who comprise the Kennebec Estuary Land Trust have learned over the past two decades. Never mind that the Androscoggin River, which flows into Merrymeeting Bay north of Bath, was once so polluted that it could melt paint off riverfront houses. Who cares that even during economic recessions, demand for new houses — and the pavement, sewer lines, and other distinctly non-natural infrastructure that come with them — remains high in midcoast Maine. Forget the seventy-eight acres of concrete and steel that constitute Bath Iron Works, located almost dead-center within the land trust's twenty-four-mile reach. Despite such challenges, this tiny land trust has managed to preserve some 1,738 acres from Bowdoinham in the north to Georgetown in the south. Its seven nature preserves and miles of publicly accessible trails have become a cherished asset for residents of Bath and the surrounding communities. "The heavy industry that is so visible in Bath makes it all the more surprising that there is a land trust here," remarks Alicia Heyburn, the land trust's outreach and communication director. "[Our preserves] are small spaces that have become a big community resource." From its humble beginnings in 1989 (it was literally formed around an Arrowsic kitchen table), the land trust has grown to include seven hundred acres of land it owns outright and another 1,038 acres to which it holds easements. This year the trust is on the verge of completing a five-mile multi-use trail within the Bath city limits, further solidifying its role as a champion of some of Maine's most fragile, and important, natural spaces.
Ask most Mainers to tell you what the Kennebec estuary is, let alone where it is, and you'll likely get a blank stare. This despite the fact that this particular estuary — technically that area where freshwater mixes with salt — is Maine's largest conservation focus area of statewide significance, draining a third of the state through Merrymeeting Bay and the Kennebec and Androscoggin rivers. Twenty percent of Maine's tidal marshes are found here. It is the largest tidal estuary north of the Hudson River and is home to five state and federally endangered or threatened species, including short-nosed sturgeon, Atlantic salmon, and roseate terns.
The presence of such critical habitat is worth protecting anywhere, but the work of the Kennebec Estuary Land Trust is especially important in the Bath area, says Warren Whitney, land trust manager with Maine Coast Heritage Trust. "It's an incredibly important region because it is close to some of the very developed areas along the coast, places like Brunswick and Bath, and at the same time the whole Kennebec estuary is critical in terms of its flora and fauna," Whitney says. "In places where people aren't as exposed to natural areas, it's very important that you have places where they can go."
For the land trust, protecting these spaces has not happened overnight. It obtained its first easement, consisting of eighty acres and two miles of shoreline, in 1991. Other easements, on the Back River near Arrowsic and the lower Sasanoa River in Georgetown, followed in 1995. In 1999, the land trust acquired its first property, a 105-acre parcel in Georgetown, simultaneously raising $245,000 in private money to complement a $175,000 Land for Maine's Future grant and thus purchase 96 acres of property on Thorne Head, north of Bath. This property, and the sixty-five-acre Sewall Woods preserve nearby and connected by trail, have become the land trust's signature property. All of the trust's properties are open to the public dawn to dusk and feature signage and parking, but no restrooms or other facilities.
Under the leadership of Executive Director Carrie Kinne and assisted by Heyburn and a part-time operations director, the land trust has shown no sign of slowing down the pace it has built up over the past few years. This fall it hopes to officially open the new Whiskeag Trail, a two-year-long project that links up five miles of trails between the Bath Area Family YMCA on Centre Street and the Thorne Head Preserve. This trail, which has been pieced together by using public lands and negotiating with a handful of private landowners, will be the longest in the Bath area. Portions of it have already proven popular with mountain bikers, bird watchers, dog walkers, and hikers. But the trust isn't done yet; Heyburn says crews are already looking at Bath's south side to see what trail possibilities exist there.
For residents of Bath and the surrounding communities, the work of the Kennebec Estuary Land Trust has had immediate, obvious benefits. "I probably spend an hour or so, three days a week, in the Sewall Woods and Thorne Head preserves," says Bath resident John Swenson. He routinely sees woodpeckers, deer, and eagles during his walks in the woods, and has even come to enjoy the preserves in winter. "There is a rather nice overlook looking up toward Merrymeeting Bay, and in the winter the navigational buoys on the Kennebec get trapped under the ice and there's this incredible groaning sound as the ice moves. It's such a nice thing to be in a relatively urban area, and yet, with a short walk, be able to get to a natural area."
For Swenson, the work of the Kennebec Estuary Land Trust has enhanced the life that he sought out in midcoast Maine. "When my wife and I moved up here, we were debating whether or not we wanted to live on one of the peninsulas — which of course are beautiful — or in town," he says. "We feel like we've got the best of both worlds here."
