Seahorse is the name given to 45 species of small marine fish in the genus Hippocampus. "Hippocampus" comes from the Ancient Greek hippokampos, itself from hippos meaning "horse" and kampos meaning "sea monster". Having a head and neck suggestive of a horse, seahorses feature segmented bony armour, an upright posture and a curled prehensile tail. Seahorses are found in shallow tropical and temperate salt water throughout the world, from about 45°S to 45°N, they live in sheltered areas such as seagrass beds, coral reefs, mangroves. Four species are found in Pacific waters from North America to South America. In the Atlantic, Hippocampus erectus ranges from Nova Scotia to Uruguay. H. zosterae, known as the dwarf seahorse, is found in the Bahamas. Colonies have been found in European waters such as the Thames Estuary. Three species live in the Mediterranean Sea: H. guttulatus, H. hippocampus, H. fuscus. These species form territories. Seahorses range in size from 1.5 to 35.5 cm. They are named for their equine appearance, with bent necks and long snouted heads and a distinctive trunk and tail.

Although they are bony fish, they do not have scales, but rather thin skin stretched over a series of bony plates, which are arranged in rings throughout their bodies. Each species has a distinct number of rings; the armor of bony plates protects them against predators, because of this outer skeleton, they no longer have ribs. Seahorses swim upright, propelling themselves using the dorsal fin, another characteristic not shared by their close pipefish relatives, which swim horizontally. Razorfish are the only other fish; the pectoral fins, located on either side of the head behind their eyes, are used for steering. They lack the caudal fin typical of fishes, their prehensile tail is composed of square-like rings that can be unlocked only in the most extreme conditions. They are adept at camouflage, can grow and reabsorb spiny appendages depending on their habitat. Unusually among fish, a seahorse has a well-defined neck, it sports a crown-like spine or horn on its head, termed a "coronet", distinct for each species.

Seahorses swim poorly fluttering a dorsal fin and using pectoral fins to steer. The slowest-moving fish in the world is H. zosterae, with a top speed of about 5 ft per hour. Since they are poor swimmers, they are most to be found resting with their prehensile tail wound around a stationary object, they have long snouts, which they use to suck up food, their eyes can move independently of each other like those of a chameleon. Anatomical evidence, supported by molecular and genetic evidence, demonstrates that seahorses are modified pipefish; the fossil record of seahorses, however, is sparse. The best known and best studied fossils are specimens of Hippocampus guttulatus, from the Marecchia River formation of Rimini Province, dating back to the Lower Pliocene, about 3 million years ago; the earliest known seahorse fossils are of two pipefish-like species, H. sarmaticus and H. slovenicus, from the coprolitic horizon of Tunjice Hills, a middle Miocene lagerstätte in Slovenia dating back about 13 million years.

Molecular dating finds. This has led to speculation that seahorses evolved in response to large areas of shallow water, newly created as the result of tectonic events; the shallow water would have allowed the expansion of seagrass habitats that selected for the camouflage offered by the seahorses' upright posture. These tectonic changes occurred in the western Pacific Ocean, pointing to an origin there, with molecular data suggesting two separate invasions of the Atlantic Ocean. In 2016, a study published in Nature found the seahorse genome to be the most evolving fish genome studied so far; the male seahorse is equipped with a pouch on the front-facing, side of the tail. When mating, the female seahorse deposits up to 1,500 eggs in the male's pouch; the male carries the eggs for 9 to 45 days until the seahorses emerge developed, but small. The young are released into the water, the male mates again within hours or days during the breeding season. Before breeding, seahorses may court for several days.

Scientists believe the courtship behavior synchronizes the animals' movements and reproductive states, so that the male can receive the eggs when the female is ready to deposit them. During this time, they may change color, swim side by side holding tails or grip the same strand of sea grass with their tails, wheel around in unison in what is known as a "predawn dance", they engage in a "true courtship dance" lasting about 8 hours, during which the male pumps water through the egg pouch on his trunk which expands and opens to display its emptiness. When the female's eggs reach maturity and her mate let go of any anchors and drift upward snout-to-snout, out of the sea grass spiraling as they rise, they interact for about 6 minutes, reminiscent of courtship. The female swims away until the next morning, the male returns to sucking up food through his snout; the female inserts her ovipositor into the male's brood pouch and deposits dozens to thousands of eggs. As the female releases her eggs, her body slims.

Both animals sink back into the sea grass and she swims away. Seahorses exhibit four pha

Freedomland is a mystery novel by Richard Price. A woman staggers into a local hospital, too dazed to speak; as the doctors and police try to puzzle out her injuries, her story comes out. She was thrown to the ground and her car was stolen. And, in the back, was her four-year-old son; the town of Dempsey is in turmoil as the search for the child goes on and pressure builds up on all sides.

Based in Washington, D. C. Leadership for Healthy Communities is a $10-million national program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation designed to engage and support local and state government leaders nationwide in their efforts to advance public policies that support healthier communities and prevent childhood obesity; the program places an emphasis on policies with the greatest potential for increasing sustainable opportunities for physical activity and healthy eating among children at highest risk for obesity, including African-American, American Indian and Alaska Native, Asian-American and Pacific Islander children living in lower-income communities. The foundation's primary goal is the reversal of the childhood obesity epidemic by 2015; the program awards grants to influential policy-maker organizations that provide technical assistance to state and local policy-makers who are poised to prevent childhood obesity through public policy levers. Current grantees of the national program include the American Association of School Administrators, International City/County Management Association, Local Government Commission, Council of State Governments, National Association of Counties, National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials Educational Fund, National Association of State Boards of Education, National Conference of State Legislatures, National League of Cities, National School Boards Association and the U.

S. Conference of Mayors. Leadership for Healthy Communities has worked with the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation and the National Congress of American Indians to address childhood obesity in the African-American and American Indian and Alaska Native communities. Leadership for Healthy Communities believes that policy action can help expand opportunities for physical activity and access to healthy foods in schools and communities; the guiding principle of this program is that initiatives led by policy-makers and community leaders at all levels play an important role in supporting healthy children. By highlighting policies and programs that can impact the health of children in schools and communities, Leadership for Healthy Communities and grantees of the program encourage policy-makers to collaborate to reverse the childhood obesity epidemic and create healthier environments. Since 2007, the Leadership for Healthy Communities national program has been led by Dr. Maya Rockeymoore Cummings.

She is the CEO of Global Policy Solutions. Known as Leadership for Active Living and Active Living Leadership, the Leadership for Healthy Communities national program started in 2002 and was managed at San Diego State University. Initial support during 2002-2003 focused on five states: California, Kentucky and Washington. At that time, the program was a partnership effort among the International City/County Management Association, the National Association of Counties, the Local Government Commission, the National Conference of State Legislatures, the National Governors Association Center for Best Practices, the United States Conference of Mayors. Over the past four decades, obesity rates have increased among all age groups. Today, nearly one third of children and adolescents in the United States are either overweight or obese. According to a national poll, parents now rank childhood obesity as the number one potential threat to their children's health—topping drugs and tobacco use. Other studies have found that obese children and adolescents are much more to become obese adults.

In fact, an obese 4-year-old has a 20 percent chance of becoming an obese adult, an obese older teenager has up to an 80 percent chance of becoming an obese adult. In addition, obese children and adolescents are targets of social discrimination and at greater risk for a host of other serious illnesses, including heart disease and type 2 diabetes; as more children become obese, type 2 diabetes—a disease, once called "adult-onset diabetes" and can lead to blindness, loss of feeling and circulation in the extremities and death—is found in younger and younger age groups. The financial consequences are significant—obesity costs the United States $117 billion each year in direct medical expenses and indirect costs, such as lost productivity; the medical costs of obesity outweighs the cost of eating healthy, maintaining physical activity, educating the population for this increasing problem occurring in today's' society. Research has found that many children do not have regular opportunities to be physically active or access to healthy foods.

Moreover, the environmental barriers to healthy behaviors are larger in lower-income areas. Lower-income communities are less to have places where people can be physically active, such as parks, green spaces, bicycle paths and lanes, and although easy access to supermarkets that offer fresh fruits and vegetables is associated with lower body mass index, many neighborhoods in racial and ethnic minority, lower-income and rural areas tend to have more fast-food restaurants and convenience stores and fewer grocery stores than predominantly white, higher-income areas. Although obesity affects people of all demographics, the prevalence rates are more alarming for racial and ethnic minorities, lower-income families and people in the Southeast region of the United States. Other important factors that researchers say have contributed to the childhood obesity epidemic are fewer hours of physical activity and an increase of junk foods in schools. Fewer than 4 percent of elementary schools provide the weekly recommended 150 minutes o

This article shows U. S. Census totals for Lincoln County, broken down by municipality, from 1900 to 2000. There are two types of incorporated municipalities in Maine and cities; the tables in the New England Historical U. S. Census Totals series differentiate between cities. Most areas of New England are divided into incorporated municipalities, with no unincorporated territory. In the three northern New England states, some unincorporated territory does exist in areas that are sparsely populated. Maine contains more unincorporated territory than the other states, with the bulk of it in interior and northern counties; some southern and coastal counties, including Lincoln County contain smaller amounts of unincorporated territory, however. Some unincorporated territory in Maine is organized into a third type of town-level municipality unique to Maine, called a plantation, while some is unorganized. Lincoln County contains one plantation, as well as a small amount of territory, unorganized. Separate sections with census totals for unincorporated areas follows the main tables below.

For any census, adding up the totals for each town-level municipality, including any plantations or unorganized entities, should yield the county total. Except for Monhegan and Hibberts Gore, all of Lincoln County is incorporated.
