The Journal of Travel Research (JTR) is the premier, peer-reviewed research journal focusing on the business of travel and tourism development, management, marketing, economics and behavior. JTR provides researchers, educators, and professionals with up-to-date, high quality research on behavioral trends and management theory for one of the most influential and dynamic industries. Founded in 1961, JTR is the oldest of the world's top-ranked scholarly journals focused exclusively on travel and tourism, reflecting the worldwide importance of tourism, both economically and socially.
Published by SAGE, an international leader in social science and business publishing, JTR publishes the most current and influential scholarship on travel and tourism.
The Journal of Travel Research publishes state-of-the-art research on the most important trends and issues in travel and tourism. JTR offers an international and multidisciplinary perspective on the best development and management practices by publishing research which enhances knowledge of important travel and tourism phenomena. JTR thereby contributes to the development of theory which enables improvements in tourism development policy and strategy; managerial practice; economic, social and environmental outcomes; and education and training programs.
All manuscripts submitted to the Journal of Travel Research are double-blind, peer-reviewed by leading tourism scholars. The JTR editorial review board includes top tourism scholars identified on the basis of their current research and scholarly contributions.
This journal is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
The mission of the Journal of Travel Research is to be the premier, peer-reviewed research journal focused on the business of travel and tourism development, management, marketing, economics and behavior. Given the multifaceted, multidisciplinary and multi-stakeholder character of the tourism economy, this focus implies a concern for both the public and private sector spheres of interest as well as economic, socio-cultural, political, environmental, legal, technological, and demographic issues. Specific goals are to be international in scope with geographic diversity, to be multidisciplinary with diversity in research topics and methodologies, and to be germane to the needs of the travel and tourism industry and its stakeholders.
All manuscripts published in the Journal of Travel Research are double-blind, peer-reviewed by accomplished scholars in the topical area. The standard for publication in the Journal of Travel Research is that a paper must make a substantive contribution, either theoretically or methodologically, to the travel and tourism research literature. Additionally, a paper should specify its contribution to pragmatic tourism management concerns and practice.
Published manuscripts must be on research of the highest standards, on topics of major significance and widespread interest, and relevant to the progress of this important global sector.

Manuscript Submission:
The Journal of Travel Research publishes articles examining travel and tourism behavior, management, development and business. Its purpose is to serve as a medium through which those with research interests can exchange ideas and keep abreast of the latest theoretical, methodological and best practices research.
Three types of manuscripts can be submitted to the Journal of Travel Research.
Empirical Research Articles:
The Journal of Travel Research encourages data-based articles which describe, explain, or predict a tourism phenomenon. Articles using quantitative, qualitative or mixed-methods data are encouraged. These articles should be "problem based", focusing on a practical tourism development, management or marketing problem. The standard for acceptance is that a paper must make a substantive theoretical and/or methodological contribution to the tourism research literature.
Foundations of Tourism Research Conceptual Articles:
The Journal of Travel Research encourages the development of high-quality articles which are broadly conceptual with the goal of building theory and/or reviewing and evaluating the body of research in a substantive and important area. The goals of these papers should be improved conceptual clarity, holistic review of the current research, theory building and expansion, and innovation with forward looking outcomes which propose new opportunities and ideas. These articles may be wholly conceptual or conceptual/empirical with meta-analytic data. Authors of such articles must be invited, or commissioned by the Foundation Series Editor. Lead authors will be internationally leading experts in the field.
Letters to the Editor:
The Journal of Travel Research encourages conversation! The purpose of these letters will be to provoke conversation, review our research endeavors, and commentary on our research problems, assumptions, methodologies and evaluation. Also included are comments about our publication process and expectations. Finally, constructive commentary concerning research publications is encouraged.
All Empirical Research Articles and Foundations of Tourism Research Conceptual Articles submitted to the Journal of Travel Research are first assessed by the Editors to determine their suitability for potential publication in JTR. Subsequently, selected manuscripts are then double-blind, peer reviewed by accomplished scholars in the topical area. Acceptance of Letters to the Editor will be the prerogative of the Editor. In all cases, the standard for publication in the Journal of Travel Research is that a paper must make a substantive theoretical and/or methodological contribution to the tourism research literature.
JTR receives several hundred submissions per year. The page budget for the journal permits us to publish only a small portion of these (around 80 articles per year currently) and so the competition for a publication slot can be quite high. JTR is therefore unable to publish many of the manuscripts it receives. So to provide authors with some guidance on the factors which have the greatest impact on manuscript acceptance/rejection, the following points may be helpful as a general guide. However, each manuscript is ultimately judged on its merits.
- The research must fit with the aims and scope of JTR. JTR publishes substantive travel and tourism research manuscripts. JTR is therefore not primarily a hospitality/hotel management, leisure and recreation management, or event management research journal. But JTR does publish some research which blends into these fields of research providing the focus of the research has a strong travel and tourism aim.
- JTR has a preference for publishing papers which are on the 'leading edge of the wave' or are breaking new and important ground that will become the foundation for interest in tourism research into the future. JTR seeks to lead travel and tourism research and to help shape the tourism research agenda rather than serving merely as a follower. Many studies are undertaken on topics for which there is already a major body of literature. JTR welcomes further research on these well-established research issues providing they lead to important, new results. This might occur if the research advances findings further into new important situations or helps to fill important gaps. It might also occur if the findings challenge orthodox assumptions and paradigms, or revolutionize knowledge on the issue. But if research on already heavily-researched issues simply adds yet one further similar study to the mix, JTR is unlikely to be interested in publishing the manuscript.
- JTR does not have a bias towards or away from any particular methodologies. What matters is whether the research is designed and executed well and the research topic is of significant interest. It is important to explain and justify why the selected methodology is the most appropriate from among the various approaches available, given the research aims and objectives.
- Many studies are undertaken with a focus on addressing a particular local situation or context. Unless the results from such studies have broader relevance, or unless the 'context' itself is of widespread interest, such research is unlikely to be publishable in JTR. The findings may indeed be of great interest and relevance to the local tourism sector. But if no one else finds the research outcomes to be worthwhile, JTR is probably not the right target journal.
- Minor English grammar and expression problems can be potentially addressed by the author through the manuscript review process but major problems will result in rejection. Only manuscripts with a high standard of English in the final manuscript version are publishable. It is always the author's responsibility to ensure a high English standard.
- Finally, every manuscript is competing for a limited number of publications slots per year. So sometimes very good research can miss out on a place in JTR simply because there are other more deserving manuscripts.
In summary, to be publishable in the Journal of Travel Research, manuscripts must simultaneously:
- Be on important, contemporary travel and tourism research issues,
- Have a very significant impact on theory and methodology,
- Be of widespread interest and relevance to the journal's audience,
- Report research which fits the aim and scope of the journal, and
- Be expressed and presented in English to a very high standard.
Before submitting your manuscript, please ensure you carefully read and adhere to all the guidelines and instructions to authors provided herein. The Journal of Travel Research (JTR) is hosted on SAGETRACK: a web-based online submission and peer review system powered by ScholarOne™ Manuscripts.

Manuscript Preparation
To be considered for publication in the Journal of Travel Research, manuscripts must meet the following standards:
- Everything is double spaced.
- Everything is left justified, with a ragged right-hand margin (no full justification)
- Format is one inch margins on all sides. Minimum print size is 12 point, except in tables and figures where 10 pt may be used.
- Manuscripts are submitted as two files: The cover page and the manuscript body.
- The cover page should include the manuscript title, ALL authors' name, position, affiliation, address, telephone numbers, fax numbers, e-mail addresses, and any acknowledgements.
- The manuscript file should contain the title, abstract, 4 to 5 keywords, text, appendices, notes, references, each table, and each figure.
- Authors' names are to appear only on the cover page. There should be nothing in the manuscript file that identifies the authors either by name or institution.
- Tables and figures are not to be embedded in the manuscript – each table and figure should be provided as a separate page at the end of the manuscript. Tags should be inserted in the manuscript indicating approximately where tables and figures should be located.
- Within the manuscript file, Title, Abstract and keywords should be on one page. After that, each section is to begin with a new page.
- Abstract is to be 150 words or less
- Manuscripts must be 10,000 words or less. Due to page limitations and the desire to accommodate as many authors as possible, this should be considered a hard limit.
- American English spellings are used in all sections except references. SAGE Publications requires English translations of all reference citations.
- Endnotes are to be grouped on a separate page. There are to be no footnotes
- All in-text citations should be included in the reference list, and all references should have in-text citations
- The reference list is to follow the Journal's style, The Chicago Manual of Style (16th ed). While preparing the reference list, please do not truncate first names and change them to initials if the original source has the first names spelled out, in keeping with Chicago manual of Style. Further, the in-text citations can be set without a comma preceding the year, e.g., "Smith 1990" instead of "Smith, 1990" and the "pp." or "p." can be omitted when citing page numbers in the text, "Smith 1990, 23-24" instead of "Smith, 1990, pp. 23-24"

Author Guidelines for Revision
To enable you to revise your manuscript so as to give it the best chances of reaching a successful outcome, please carefully read these guidelines and follow them meticulously. It is essential that you understand that the invitation to revise and resubmit a paper is not a commitment on the part of the Journal of Travel Research to eventually accept and publish the paper. Even if the author addresses the concerns raised in the initial review, the further review of the revised manuscript must determine whether the paper then meets the standards required for publication in JTR.
As you revise your paper for resubmission to the Journal of Travel Research, please make sure it meets the following guidelines. If the paper is ultimately accepted, you will receive the list of formatting requirements again with a "it must meet…" statement. It is critical that you take care to ensure you meet these requirements as it can save a great deal of your time and our time at the typesetting stage.
Please submit your revised paper via the Journal of Travel Research Manuscript Central process. It is important that the paper be submitted as a revision of your first submission. Specifically, this means it would be submitted under the same manuscript number and be treated both by Manuscript Central and by the Editorial Office as a revised paper. This will result in a much faster review process.
Include with your submission a supplementary file indicating how the paper has been revised relative to the substantive comments made by the reviewers of the original version as well as any additional comments or requirements indicated by the Editor as contained in the decision email. It is important that this file be submitted together with the revised manuscript so that it can be forwarded it to the reviewers. This paper must explain how the authors have addressed the concerns raised in the initial review. Subsequent reviews focus specifically on this response. When you finish with your resubmission, you can review a pdf file of the complete submission – make sure the supplementary file is included. Also, since it is potentially going back to the reviewers, please be sure not to include your name or identity in the supplementary file.
To create this supplementary file you should:
Cut and paste all comments by each reviewer, as well any requirements indicated by the Editor in the decision email.
For each substantive comment, provide a detailed explanation and justification of your response.
Your response to each comment should clearly indicate whether or not a change has occurred in the manuscript and, if so, what that change is and precisely where it can be found.
If you are in disagreement with the reviewer comments or suggestions, or prefer an alternative approach to address an issue they have raised, this is quite acceptable. However, in such cases, you need to discuss and explain your views and justify your preferred approach either not to change the manuscript, or to change it in a different manner. Again, any change should be clearly explained and its location in the manuscript specified.
Attending to these points adequately will significantly benefit the further review of revised manuscripts.
In addition to responding to the reviewer comments, it is important to make sure the paper is current in its review of the literature. Often the manuscript process, from inception to completion, can take many months. It is important that, during each revision process, you update the review of literature, including, as appropriate, how this paper fits within the related papers published in the tourism literature and JTR over the past few years. Please also make sure to check for relevant manuscripts in the JTR Online First (http://jtr.sagepub.com/content/early/recent) listing as that is the most current papers that will be published in advance of your paper.

As soon as I stepped into the sixth form common room, I knew that it was going to be difficult to fight my way into the obviously closely-knit friendship groups. The groups of kids were huddled together, forming tight circles around iPhones.
Sighing, I dumped my bag on the closest table to the door and yanked out a chair, sitting myself down.
A few passers-by threw an interested glance in my direction, but other than that, there were no attempts to catch my attention.
I wanted to cry. Which was stupid. But the urge was overwhelming and it took every ounce of my being to fight back the tears which threatened to emerge.
Just as I was about to give into the temptation of dashing into the girl's toilets to silently sob, a girl scooted the chair out opposite me and shot me a huge, sunshiny grin. She had a pair of huge bright blue eyes, framed by thick long lashes which were coated with generous amounts of mascara. Her sandy-blonde hair framed her round face in a cute bob, and the light from the window shone behind her head, casting a pale-gold halo around her.
"Hi!" She said, placing her little hands on the table. Her nails were painted a pale shade of violet, and it made her light-golden tan seem darker.
"Hey," I smiled back, determined to make a good first impression.
"I'm Jenny. Jenny Kaufman," she introduced herself. "I noticed you were sitting here all by yourself. It's tough being new," she said sympathetically and I couldn't help but instantly like her.
"Yeah, I'm Edie. Deacon. Edie Deacon." I agreed. "I swear, I might have cried if everyone had carried on ignoring me!" I blurted out, my cheeks flushing.
"Well, it's a good job I came over!" She trilled, grinning. "Where have you moved from?"
"Way down south," I said evasively. "My Dad had to move his business, so we've moved into the huge house on Stocknorth Hill, you know it?"
Jenny's face went white-pale for a moment, and her eyes glazed over. I froze, regretting sharing the information, "hey, are you okay?"
"Oh, me? Yeah. I'm fine, fine!" She stammered, twisting her slim fingers together. "I used to live in that house," she explained, biting her lip.
"Oh, right," I said, my eyebrows rose and I smiled encouragingly at her, interested in why they decided to move.
Some sniggers behind me had me turning around, and I found myself face-to-face with a gaggle of girls. They were all looking at Jenny with the same expression of contempt. The tallest girl, who was obviously their 'ringleader' of sorts, jerked her chin and a snide smile stretched her cheeks. "They moved 'cause her brother went and got himself killed. Because of her, you know? You're really better off avoiding her."
I felt my jaw drop in horror and my stomach twisted in protest as I made the decision to speak up for the tiny, fretful-looking girl who sat opposite me. "Just hang on a minute!"
"That's a really awful thing to say. Look, I don't know you, but I don't think I want to if you're such a horrible person."
"Excuse me?" The girl's eyes narrowed and my chest tightened in panic.
"Edie, you don't – " Jenny began.
I stood up, scrambling for my bag, desperate not to make a scene on my first day. I left the table and looked at Jenny on my way, "let's go, okay?"
She nodded gratefully and clutched her own bag to her chest as she practically glued herself to my side. "Thank you," she said softly, looking up at me with her huge fawn eyes and I smiled, shrugging.
"I don't like bullies." I said. "Wait, that wasn't weird of me, was it? I mean, we've only just met and – "
"No! It's okay. No one ever stands up for me like that."
"Really? That's stupid." I huffed, hitching my bag higher up onto my shoulder.
"No, it's not," Jenny sighed. "Alice Hoffman is not someone people generally stand up to."
"Urgh," I shook my head in disgust. "It's just, I'm sorry I brought up the house. I didn't know that they'd be so horrible about… about your brother, look, I'm so sorry."
"No, it's okay." She rewarded my apologies with a sad smile. "It's been a few years so I've learned to deal with it all."
"Right." I said lamely.
We walked down the corridor towards the classroom in which we both had first period. On our way, a boy caught up with us, looking distinctly windswept. He had tousled dark red hair and was tall. Like, really tall. He looked over Jenny and at me with his almost hypnotic green-hazel eyes.
"Hello, Jenny. And hello New Girl." He said, his smooth voice setting a harsh contrast to his dangerously sharp facial features.
"Hi, Scott." Jenny beamed, raising her hand into a wave. "This is Edie, she just shouted at Alice Hoffman for me."
"Wow!" Scott exclaimed, "way to go Eddie."
"Uh, Edie." I interjected, "you know, like, short for Edith?"
"Oh, sorry, my bad." He said, shrugging. "On your way to first?"
"Yup." Jenny turned to me, "Scott's in our lesson, too."
"Oh, OK." I smiled at Scott, and he smiled back at me, although it was tooth-heavy and I didn't know if that made me feel uncomfortable or romanced.
"I think we're all going to be great friends!" Said Jenny with enthusiastic optimism and I couldn't do anything else but agree.

| kezzla chapter 1 . 8/6/2007
Awh poor Winry ;_; I'm guessing the implication are Pinako, Den, and Al are dead?
| Evil Little Dog chapter 1 . 7/31/2007
I think it kind of works this way...but Ed and Winry are both too stubborn to let it just hang. Now that the problem is out in the open, Ed would be considering it from all angles...and trying to figure out if Winry's right and what he can do to fix it. And Winry's the same way - if they wanted to stay together, their stubbornness would almost make them work on it.
But it's a good story and I like what you did with it.
| Hiddeninthedark93 chapter 1 . 7/30/2007
I LOVED IT! You should add more to it though but it did keep me at the edge of my seat. What happened to Al? I LOVE AL! It was good anyway. my favorite!
| IrishMagic chapter 1 . 7/30/2007
I love the idea behind this- showing the relationship between Ed and Winry when they're both hurt/grieving and struggling to move on (or hanging on too tightly to the past). It's very well-written and you seemed to portray Ed and Winry's characters and their feelings perfectly! However, you're right, the ending does seems too open; it would be great if you did a sequel to wrap things up. If you decide to do a sequel, maybe you could also mention how and when Pinako and Den died in there as well. I imagine it was probably due to natural causes such as old age or something, but I was a bit curious about that.

I remember when they had them at Wirt Park. You could sit 10 feet away from where they set them off. Some came off sideways and flew right over your head. They set the firehouse roof on fire. That was fun lol.

hanover is full of ball baby know one know how to have fun in this town anymore you can even sit on your front porch with your friends and talk without someone calling the police on you
#25 Jun 30, 2008
What the heck are you trying to say?
#26 Jul 1, 2008
Who knows. I sat on my porch last night and enjoyed a beer while my kids played in the yard. No one called the cops, but maybe it's because I live in a neighborhood where people don't do things that require police attention all the time.

He's spamming other Topix forums with his racist white power website trying to get people to come to his page. Unless you're into that sort of thing, I suggest you all click the "Report Abuse" link and get him out of your forum so he doesn't stink it up with his Nazi garbage. Don't give him the site traffic he wants.

I'm new in Hanover. Where the heck is Moul Field? You would think a newspaper would say something about where the damned place is. I cannot find "Moul Field" on any map...online or offline.
You people need to think about this sort of thing.
#31 Jul 4, 2008
What they need is one of those force field domes like the Gungans used in Star Wars I. Just set up the force field over your home and well hey...you're impenetrable and safe to sit on the lawn and watch the fireworks. They would also come in handy for outdoor barbecues on rainy days, just put up the force field and hey...enjoy the burgers. Force fields would do the job. Heck. Nuclear war? No brainer! You got a force field! Neighborhood dogs doo-doo on your lawn? Just put up the force field, honey!
All we need is for George Lucas or somebody to sit down and actually invent one of these things. I'm all for it.

#42 Jul 4, 2008
Well Mr Joe,
I can tell you that the spot they were fired off from was in Penn Twp. I was sitting next to the fire trucks in the Bookspan parking lot and asked them. They said they were in Penn Twp. They said the boro/twp line runs near where they were being fired from in the twp.
But I guess since I asked the firemen from that department everyone will say it still isn't true!

"The highest of the highs," trainer Doug O'Neill said Sunday morning of the emotions that winning Kentucky Derby 138 with I'll Have Another brought.
The Flower Alley colt, owned by J. Paul Reddam's Reddam Racing LLC, looked the picture of health as he exited Stall 17 in Barn 3 to get his legs washed off at 6:20 a.m. (EST) Sunday morning.
"He looks great this morning and a key thing is he ate up last night after the race," said O'Neill, who finally got around to having dinner with his team after midnight.
O'Neill, who was returning to his home base in Southern California later Sunday, plans to return to Louisville, Kentucky, midweek with an early departure planned for Pimlico and the Preakness, the second jewel in horse racing's Triple Crown.
"I will be back in two or three days," said O'Neill, who later in the morning informed Churchill Downs Stall Superintendant Steve Hargrave that I'll Have Another would ship to Pimlico Monday afternoon. "I'd like to get him over there and get settled in."
Sitting at the apex of the highest of the highs, O'Neill is now in position with I'll Have Another to bring the sport its first Triple Crown winner since Affirmed in 1978.
"I get goose bumps just thinking about it," O'Neill said. "I think he is the kind of horse who can maintain his form and keep it going."
Under first-time Kentucky Derby rider Mario Gutierrez, I'll Have Another became the first horse in Derby history to win from post position 19.
"I don't think we were more than four wide at any time in the race," O'Neill said. "I heard some of the horses on the inside had some problems, but we got a smooth trip."
Also making the trip to Pimlico with I'll Have Another is Lava Man, the 11-year-old earner of more than $5.2 million who ponied the Derby winner during his Churchill Downs stay.
"He has taken three horses to the post," O'Neill said of Lava Man. "They won the (Grade 1) Santa Anita Derby, the Kentucky Derby and a horse I ran here Friday, Unex Dali, who ran second on Friday but thinks he won. Lava Man makes a pretty good caddie."
Before returning to Kentucky, O'Neill has some pressing business to attend to in California.
"When we started talking about the Derby, I told the kids (son Daniel and daughter Kaylin Dixie) that we would get a hot tub if he won the Derby," O'Neill said. "We are going to have to do some shopping now."
Out west in California, everyone connected to Team O'Neill were still ecstatic the morning after I'll Have Another's brilliant victory, including assistant trainer Leandro Mora.
"It was too bad I couldn't go," Mora said. "I was supposed to go (Saturday), but I couldn't because we had horses running here (at Hollywood Park) and we have to take care of business. But that's alright, because it's still the same great feeling. Doug called me after the Derby to give me some congrats. So now we're just enjoying it.
"I spoke to the boys this morning and he looks fine. I guess they were worried about him getting too hot after the race. It took a long time with the ceremonies and things like that, but they gave him a bath right there on the track and everything was cool."
I'll Have Another, whose base of operations has been at Hollywood, is now the toast of California.
"This is such a great little horse. He hasn't done anything wrong for us," Mora added. "I'm so happy for Mario (Gutierrez), he's such a cool kid. Before the wire, he was riding like it was just another race. I think I was more nervous than he was. We're looking forward to the next one."
Ivan Puhich, longtime agent and currently representing Gutierrez, was surprisingly low-key about the monumental victory.
"I just watched the race home alone. I've been around too long to get excited," Puhich said. "I never yelled. I quit yelling when I was around 15 years old."

The PDSA has revealed some of the animals in the running for its coveted Pet Survivor 2015 title, with a year's worth of pet insurance on offer for the winner.
Early entrants
- A kitten who had a close brush with death following extensive chemical burns covering over half its body.
- A miniature schnauzer Suki who survived a horrific dog attack that left her with a fractured jaw and ripped open her side, causing prolapsed intestines.
- An Essex cat that lost an eye after being blasted in the face with a marble-sized metal ball bearing – subsequently needed eight operations to repair its shattered jaw.
The PDSA Pet Survivor Awards are open to any pet treated by a vet in the UK for a life-threatening illness or injury between August 1, 2014 and August 1, 2015.
PDSA vet Vicki Larkham-Jones said: "Every week, dedicated vet teams help get our beloved pets back on all four paws after serious injury and illness.
"The PDSA Pet Survivor Awards celebrate those extraordinary cases that capture a pet's fighting spirit, an owner's dedication and the expertise and skills of the vet professionals, saving lives and nursing them back to health.
"The stories we hear never fail to amaze us, and we're looking forward to receiving many more."
Nominate now
Pet owners wishing to nominate their pet can enter online – entries need to be received by midnight on October 4, 2015.
A panel of judges will then shortlist a small group of pets to take part in a public vote, with the winner announced at the end of the year. The winner will be declared PDSA Pet Survivor 2015 and will win a year's PDSA pet insurance.

Chronicles of an Agoraphobic
Derived from Greek words literally meaning "fear of the marketplace." Used to describe an irrational and often disabling fear of being out in public.
Enter Olive Alston, a sixteen year old girl who hasn't bothered to leave her house in eight years. All that time with nowhere to go has left her watching the rest of the world like a personal television set. Armed with a pair of binoculars and a notebook, she records everything she can see, and no one's the wiser - until one
My brother likes to tell me that we were born twins because I was too scared to come out into the world alone. After all, our mother hadn't planned for children -- she hadn't even known there were twins until a second baby popped out after the first. It's his theory that, sensing my fear, he came into existence to be my protector. However, his theory has a few flaws. First of all, I wasn't born first -- he was. So if we're going to get technical here, I came into existence because he was afraid. Second, he's afraid of way more than I am. Girls, for instance, make him stammer and blush whenever he tries to talk to them. Spiders make him squirm. Dark enclosed places make him sweat. Clowns -- oh, don't even get me started on clowns. A lot of things give him the heebie-jeebies, whereas only one thing really gets to me. Mm, does that one thing ever get to me.
It's not really a big deal. Well, ok, it is – but not in the way some people might think. It's just that…sometimes, I wish outside didn't exist. Scratch that -- a lot of times, I wish outside didn't exist. I wish there was only one place in the entire world, and that one place is my house. There wouldn't be anywhere to go, any open spaces to roam in, any inescapable situations to...well, what I'm trying to say is, life would be a whole lot better if home were the only place the heart could be, and sometimes I pretend that's so. However, that will never happen, so I'm pretty much stuck. Not that I mind, of course. On the contrary, I'm plenty happy being stuck. Mm, but that's getting ahead of the story…
So anyway, back to my brother. His name is Oliver, and Oliver the Great dubbed himself my protector from the outside when we were five. I can't really remember the details -- I was a bit out of it at the time -- but my mother likes to bring it up as often as possible (I'm fully convinced she's lying when she says she doesn't play favorites). Her eyes used to get all misty when she told the story.
"It was around the time you got sick, Olive." (Yeah, that's right – my name's Olive, and my twin's is Oliver. So my parents weren't all creative. Yuk it up, people, yuk it up.) "You screamed and kicked and cried whenever we tried to get you out of the house. It scared everyone so badly, seeing you so frightened, but not Oliver. Nope, not Oliver. Whenever we had to go to the Doctor's, he would take your hand and tell you everything was ok and that he'd protect you like the knights on that one movie he always watched. You never did calm down completely, but it helped so much – he was such a brave little angel…"
Well, isn't that just the sweetest story of all time? You can't see me right now, but I'm rolling my eyes. I mean, don't get me wrong, I love my brother – but if I hear that story one more time, I'm gonna…ah, nevermind. He means well. I guess that's what counts. But it's not like he has much to protect me from – I haven't gone outside for a long, long time. Then, I suppose he could be protecting me from the outside. That probably makes more sense. Any time my mother pressures me to venture into the great outdoors, and we get into a fight, he always takes my side (even though he's clearly a mama's boy any other time). If it weren't for him, the old lady probably woulda pushed me out the door and tied me to a lawn chair in the backyard forever ago. Oliver is the calmest person in the world, but when she starts talking about 'trips', he freaks out on so many levels. I don't blame him – our mother can be a trifle annoying.
Unfortunately, I can't blame her. It has to suck having a daughter who's refused to leave the house in nearly eight years. All those frilly dresses wasted, all those special outings missed, all the neighbors talking amongst themselves…and they do talk. Housewives always do, and the majority of women in this disgusting little suburban haven we've got going on here are, in fact, housewives.
I watch them every day, from the windows in my bedroom which, thanks to a designing flaw, is mostly windows. For my eleventh birthday, Oliver gave me a pair of really cool binoculars. He figured, since I spend all day upstairs, I could take up bird watching. He even got me a book to match. But every time I tried watching birds, I got distracted by the neighbors – who are much more interesting than any silly birds. The Jamesons, for instance. They live down the street, five houses down on the left. I can barely see them on their driveway by eyesight alone, but with my binoculars, it's like they're right next door. (And don't I wish they really were? Having a vacant house right next to us is the most boring thing ever, and ever since Mrs. Moris passed away, it's been empty. Poor Mrs. Moris…)
Mr. and Mrs. Jameson have three kids – two girls and one boy. The little boy is only five, and the subject of much torment. Every day he walks up and down the sidewalk with his little red wagon having great conversations with a stuffed dog, while his sisters do anything they could possibly do to make his life hell. They would come out in their Cinderella and Snow White costumes, ready to push over his wagon or steal his stuffed animal while emitting high pitched giggles that even I can hear when my windows are open. Nasty little creatures, the Jameson girls. Not at all like their mother. Mrs. Jameson would come running at any hint of a tear, a frown, all ready to make the world bright again. I used to wish she were my mother. Sometimes I still do. Aside from Oliver, she has to be the nicest person in the world. Mr. Jameson is almost the same. He plays with the kids after work, and they all look so happy. I'm not quite sure how the girls got to be such brats, unless…well, nobody and nothing is perfect. Mr. and Mrs. Jameson's marriage is no exception. From the window farthest from my bed, I can see into their living room. They shout and carry on (or seem to – I can't actually hear them from where I sit) as if suddenly possessed by angry demons, pulling such hateful expressions that you never would've guessed they could manage by seeing them during the day.
But everyone in the neighborhood is like that – twisted, confused, hateful, dishonest, sad. They look happy on the outside. But they're not. They've got secrets, and every secret is written down in my notebook. House by house, family by family, person by person. Everything I can see through my binoculars is recorded. I've never met any of them – not even once. But I know all their names, and I know what they're hiding. It's like a live version of Clue, really. Who killed Mr. Mustard in the Foyer with the Candlestick?
I bet I could tell you.

A sign in a store called the British Home Shoppe reads as follows:
"Sorry, we are not a daycare center. Please control your children"
It seems that a mother found this sign to be offensive. So she responded by throwing merchandise at the owner until he shot her with a taser. Both the mother and the store owner were arrested.
Yeah, I am sure these kids are going to turn out OK.

John Casablancas modeling and Acting Career Center This is a SCAM Charlotte North Carolina
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I received a call from a lady named Konnie on Feb. 25th, 2014. She stated that she was with John Casablancas Career Center, and wanted me to know if I was interested so, I agreed to the audition. On Feb. 26th When I got there I signed in and was put in a dressing room full of women.
The audition started a few minutes late and began with a photoshoot consisting of one headshot and two bodyshots. Then I sat at a desk with the co-director as she asked me a few questions about how bad I wanted to act/model, and what my grades were in school (not that that's any of their concern.) Then I and my fellow audtioners were taken to a room with a catwalk and made to wait for at least thirty minutes while they were taking photos of the people behind us.
Finally, we got started with the second part of the audition where the "officials" of the audition bombarded us with meaningless information about their awards, how they've been at their current location for twenty-five years, promises of jobs, how long they have been in this "business" (if you can call it that) etc. After they were done "talking themselves up" they had a few talents get onto the catwalk and pretend to do a laughtrack, as well as, get the rest of the talents involved with this... unprofessional and overly friendly act of selling themselves.
After we "had a good laugh," The co-director demonstrated how to walk on a catwalk, (stay on your left side) and then had us walk out until they qued music for us to walk back in pose for the "judges" and continue to clap for the rest of our peers after we had finished. After we were done modeling the co-director said she and the two other women that "judged" us will be back after they compare notes. when they returned they broke us up into three groups, one group for each official. After I was told I made the callback I left to do more research on the company only to find out that almost EVERY SINGLE REVIEW was anywhere between bad to horrible.
I decided not to go for the callback on Feb 27th and did not call to cancel. At six o'clock that evening I was contacted by my official and was promptly scalded for not showing up, she also gave a guilt trip stating that she had to get a babysitter. When I told her the reason I did not call, nor come in she asked me why and persistantly asked me why continuing to raise the tone of her voice. I told her not to call again and hung up. She called me three to five times within the next MINUTE after that. She continued to persist that I come in and discuss my reviews, as if it was imperative to my future that I come in and see what they thought.
When I finally agreed to come in that night (mind you I had one prior engagement at seven o'clock and just got out of a birthday dinner with my mother) When I arrived and she finally came out of her office she acted as if nothing had happened and was buddy buddy with me like we friends. we discussed everything and after tons of flattery, and sweet talk I finally left and that was the end of it.
Out of everything, the best part about this circus was being a "model" for ten seconds of my life.

text: The defense. Some good games (FSU, Miami, KU), some decent games (OU, CSU, Baylor, TT, Bama) some clunkers (KSU, NU, Mizzou, ISU, ASU). -They were wildly inconsistent all year. The losses of Wheatley and Dizon are huge, and those are gigantic shoes to fill. The Buffs need to have a DE breakout and become a pass rushing force. Imagine how much better this D would have been with an Abe Wright coming off the edge this year. Hopefully Lucas can finally put it all together (not holding my breath) or perhaps one of the young bucks (Obi, Herrod, Perri, Hudgins) can step it up. -An offensive Identity. Not a smash mouth team, not a spread O, not a run and shoot, not a WCO. We saw lots of spread looks in the bowl game, but the results were suspect. Losing Charles is a bigger deal than most are willing to admit, and until PT Gates and Darrell Scott are actually on campus, we have a gaping hole at RB. Maybe it was all the youth on O that contributed to what I perceive as a lack of identity and hopefully that's cured in Spring Ball. A couple of the RS frosh are going to have to step up to replace Polumbus and Harrison.

FARGO—Applications for all public jobs in North Dakota could be closed—apparently for the first time in history—until the hiring authority names finalists under a bill that has passed the North Dakota Senate. If approved by the House and signed into law, it would be the first time in North Dakota that a law closes a category of public records that has been open "forever," in the view of Steve Andrist, executive director of the North Dakota Newspaper Association, which opposes the bill.
FARGO—Sara Brendel's first child was delivered in the customary setting, a hospital delivery room. The experience was wonderful, she says. But when it was time to have her second child, she opted for a midwife. The decision to have a midwife deliver her second child came after she realized it was an option—that, in fact, in many countries a hospital delivery is reserved for high-risk pregnancies. Both experiences were good ones, but Brendel, a music teacher in Fargo, regrets that she didn't have another option.
FARGO — North Dakota State University President Dean Bresciani warned an alumni group that the budget outlook for 2017-19 remains gloomy and said administrators are girding for a budget cut in the range of 20 percent. But Bresciani said there still is confusion in the Capitol about which of two gubernatorial budget proposals — or even which budget year — will serve as the baseline to shape the 2017-19 spending plan.
FARGO — Landowners living near a planned industrial hog farm near Buffalo in rural Cass County argue that significant changes made to the permit should have reopened the case for more public comment. The arguments Monday, Feb. 6, in Cass County District Court on behalf of the Concerned Citizens of Buffalo, were in opposition to Pipestone Holdings' Rolling Green Family Farms, a 9,000-swine factory farm, which would be built about 40 miles west of Fargo.
ROLLA, N.D.—More than two weeks after the fact, authorities still have not named two suspected criminals shot and killed in separate cases days apart last month in Rolette County, including the man who killed a sheriff's deputy. An intruder was killed during a break-in of a home in rural Rolette County on Jan. 22. The fatal home invasion came just four days after Colt Allery, a Rolette County deputy sheriff, was fatally shot after a vehicle chase followed by a shootout on Jan. 18.
FARGO — A group of clean energy advocates is proposing a network of fast-charging stations on major highways crisscrossing North Dakota to encourage the adoption of electric vehicles. Citizens Local Action Energy Network, or CLEAN, based in Fargo, has applied for a grant under Volkswagen's $11 billion settlement that allocates $7.5 million for North Dakota projects that reduce automobile tailpipe emissions.
FARGO — Shooting and killing a petty thief would be legal under a sweeping proposal to relax North Dakota's laws on the use of deadly force, under a bill that Cass County's top prosecutor thinks could lead to "Wild West"-style justice. Sen. David Clemens, R-West Fargo, is the prime sponsor of the bill to expand the legal use of deadly force in North Dakota to protect property as well as to prevent theft or criminal mischief.
WEST FARGO, N.D. — Patricia Muldoon spent years taking care of her disabled husband. As his condition deteriorated with age, she quit her job to be a round-the-clock caregiver so he could stay at home. She devoted the last 15 years of her husband's life — he died in July at age 77 — to caring for the man who asked her four times to be his wife before she gave a heartfelt yes. "All my life, I loved him to the moon and back," she said. "He was a lovely man."
FARGO—Nursing home residents could be forced to pay hundreds of dollars more per month under a legislative proposal to charges a new fee to cover state budget cuts. North Dakota nursing homes back the proposed fee on the care they provide as a "last resort" in the event funding is not restored from budget cuts that administrators say would otherwise force facilities to cut staff.
FARGO—Paul Laney's phone rang on a Saturday while he was relaxing as he watched televised coverage of the summer Olympics. Little did the Cass County sheriff know that his professional life was about to be upended. The call was from a fellow sheriff asking for help in dealing with the protests against the Dakota Access Pipeline in Morton County, just north of the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation.

Location: Jean Mayer Human Nutrition Research Center On Aging2012 Annual Report
1a. Objectives (from AD-416):
LAB: Epidemiology 1. Using an epidemiologic approach, investigate the role of whole grains, selected nutrients, other bioactive food components, and healthy dietary patterns in preventing age-related development of metabolic risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, cancer and musculoskeletal disorders, and age-related eye disease. 1A. Determine if higher whole-grain intake is associated with less visceral adiposity and a lower waist circumference. 1B. Determine if diet differs between "metabolically healthy but obese" (MHO) individuals and "metabolically abnormal obese" (MAO) individuals. 1C. Determine if higher intakes of various classes of flavonoids are associated with a healthier profile of intermediate markers of CVD risk. 1D. Determine if a plant-based diet will improve the diet quality and consequently affect disease risk through its effects on underlying inflammation, lipid metabolism, insulin sensitivity and endothelial function. 1E. Determine if higher whole grain intake is associated with a lower risk congestive heart failure (CHF) 2. Determine the validity of biomarkers for whole grain intake, their use in assessing relationships between whole grain intake and disease risk, and the relationship between these biomarkers and insulin resistance phenotypes. 3. Using an epidemiologic approach, examine determinants of adherence to the recommended dietary patterns in the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) and the relation between adherence to these patterns and prevention of age-related weight gain, abdominal obesity, and related metabolic disorders such as inflammation, endothelial dysfunction and insulin resistance. 4. Using an epidemiologic approach, investigate safe upper limits for the dietary intake of folic acid. 5. Using an epidemiologic approach, determine relationships between dietary intake and nutrient status and the prevention of age-related cognitive decline in humans. 6. Using an epidemiologic approach, investigate the role of nutritional factors in limiting the coromorbidities such as CVD and premature mortality in individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD). LAB: Dietary Assessment 1. Use an epidemiologic approach to determine if micronutrient intake and dietary patterns are associated with bone status and fracture risk in older adults. 2. Use an epidemiologic approach to determine if micronutrient intake and dietary patterns are associated with depression and cognitive function in older adults. 3. Use an epidemiologic approach to identify behavioral factors that are associated with obesity in diverse population groups. 4. Use an epidemiologic approach to determine how genetic polymorphisms modify dietary effects on risk of diabetes in older adults. 5. Use an epidemiologic approach to determine associations between stress, diabetes and physical disability in older Puerto Rican adults, and the role of dietary patterns in moderating these associations.
1b. Approach (from AD-416):
LAB: Epidemiology Many age-related conditions, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, dementia, cancer, musculoskeletal disorders and age-related eye disease, appear to have strong nutritional components. Improved nutrition through public health recommendations and interventions could have a tremendous impact on the economic and societal costs associated with these disabilities, but development of recommendations and interventions requires a greater understanding of the presumptive role that nutrition plays in delaying the onset of disease and disability. Epidemiologic methods applied to community-based investigations of aging populations provide a valuable tool to help meet this need. We will use these methods to address project objectives. LAB: Dietary Assessment We will achieve project objectives by continuing to work with existing cohorts of aging adults in the US population, including our own Boston Puerto Rican Health Study and Nutrition and Memory in the Elderly Study, and through active collaboration with the Framingham Studies, the Baltimore Longitudinal Study on Aging and the VA Normative Aging Study. In each of these, we either collect and analyze or interpret dietary intake and/or biochemical measures and relate them to health outcomes. In addition, we will collaborate across the ARS Human Nutrition Research Centers to conduct a new multi-center assessment of barriers and facilitators of adherence to dietary guidelines to prevent obesity. Together this body of work will contribute to a better understanding of the importance of specific foods, nutrients and dietary patterns in health maintenance with aging and in prevention of obesity and related chronic conditions.
3. Progress Report:
This progress report includes the work of one subordinate project at the HNRCA funded through a Specific Cooperative Agreement with TUFTS UNIVERSITY. For further information and progress reports, see 1950-51530-009-01S (Epidemology, nutrition and problems of aging)
4. Accomplishments
1. LAB: Nutritional epidemiology: Lycopene and tomato product intake reduce incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The limited number of prior studies examining the relationship between CVD and lycopene intake, a carotenoid derived mainly from tomatoes, failed to show any benefits of lycopene intake in spite of experimental evidence suggesting the opposite. We used repeated measurements of diet for up to ten years to characterize usual long-term intake of lycopene and tomato products in order to fill the gap in availability of longitudinal data. We observed that incidence of CVD was 15-25% lower among those with the highest lycopene intakes compared to those with the lowest intakes; similar results were seen based on the intake of tomato products. Including more tomato products as part of a healthy diet pattern may provide added benefit against the development of CVD, which remains a major public health concern for Americans.
2. LAB: Nutritional epidemiology: Better vitamin D status slows the age-related increase in fasting blood glucose (sugar) levels. There is a growing belief that poor vitamin D status is associated with a higher risk of type 2 diabetes, but there is little evidence to suggest that vitamin D effects pre-diabetic metabolic conditions related to the development of diabetes, such as impaired fasting glucose. To help address this gap in our knowledge, we examined the relation between vitamin D status using previously validated vitamin D score and increases in fasting plasma glucose concentrations among adults without type 2 diabetes. We observed that blood glucose levels among individuals with lower vitamin D scores, indicative of poor vitamin D status, were 50% greater than levels for those individuals who had high vitamin D scores after 7 years of follow-up. These findings suggest that a better vitamin D status might be one means to slow the age-related increase in fasting glucose levels resulting in lower risk of impaired fasting glucose, consequently helping to prevent the later development of type 2 diabetes.

Chief: Burn barrel sparked Prineville barn house fire
Both structures destroyed; no injuries
PRINEVILLE, Ore. - A burn barrel sparked a fire that destroyed a house and barn in northwest Prineville Saturday afternoon, officials said Sunday.
Crook County Fire and Rescue responded around 1 p.m. to the reported fire in the 400 block of NW McDonald Road, said Fire Chief Matt Smith.
Smith said the fire started from a burn barrel and spread to the nearby barn. By the time crews arrived, the barn was engulfed and the fire had spread to the adjacent manufactured home.
Sixteen firefighters, three water tenders, two engines and an ambulance were called out to the fire, Smith said.
The Red Cross said the fire displaced two adults and a cat. The organization provided food, clothes, lodging, comfort kits and information about health and mental health services.
Fire crews remained on scene until 9 p.m. Saturday, and the fire was still burning in the foundation's interior Sunday morning and putting out a lot of smoke, Smith said. Unsafe conditions were keeping firefighters from fully dousing the blaze, he added.

New Delhi, Feb.26 : Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders demanded a tax holiday for industries in Punjab during a rally held here today.
BJP President Rajnath Singh said industry was stymied in the state and needed support. He said that several units had migrated to the neighbouring states of Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir and Uttaranchal, since those states enjoyed tax breaks.
"The demand for a tax holiday made by entrepreneurs of Punjab is justified as they are facing a lot of problems. I want to reiterate that the tax holiday should be granted to the industries (of Punjab),"said Singh.
Punjab Chief Minister and SAD chief Prakash Singh Badal criticised the Central Government for not paying enough attention to the underprivileged sections of society and for not taking steps to prevent farmers' from committing suicide because of heavy debts.
He contended that Punjab was being discriminated against despite the fact that it was a major contributor to the country's food bank.
"The expenditure graph is rising faster than the growth in income. Farmers are not getting enough returns. As a result, instances of farmers committing suicide are on the rise," said Badal.
The rally was organised to voice the concern of farmers and entreprenuers of Punjab over the plight of debt-ridden farmers, farm labourers, industries and the Sikh communities. It was also organised to project the Akali Dal on the national political canvass.
