While Abroad
While Abroad
This section is a resource for families that will enable them to find information on the support systems available for their loved ones who are studying abroad on all CAPA programs. This includes safety information, as well as information on the types of activities they'll be able to engage in over the course of their chosen program. This section will also offer assistance to families and provide suggestions as to how they can best support their loved one should any issues arise during the student's time abroad. |
Updated August 2013
CAPA's student conduct code ensures that you remain safe and healthy and that you have the best possible experience while abroad.
As a participant of a program with CAPA The Global Education Network (herein referred to as CAPA), you agree to abide by the following rules and code of conduct.
It is extremely important to show the utmost respect, decorum and maturity when living and studying with a community of people. This Student Code of Conduct covers all CAPA participants living in all CAPA residences (including apartments, homestays or university-run dormitories) and attending the CAPA programs. You must also respect all CAPA and residence staff and adhere to their directions when approached regarding housing and/or behavioral infractions. You acknowledge that social networking should also be used with great care as inappropriate posts can reflect poorly upon yourself, your university and CAPA, and negatively affect your fellow students. You accept and acknowledge that social networking posts indicating that the code of conduct has been broken may be used as evidence within the disciplinary process.
Lastly, you accept and acknowledge that you could be dismissed from your residence and from the program if you do not follow these rules and codes of conduct. You also accept and acknowledge that in the event of dismissal, no refunds of program fees will be issued, as agreed upon in your study abroad application.
A. General Behavioral Rules:
- All forms of dishonesty which harm others or undermine the academic purpose of the program or a program activity are prohibited, whether they occur by act or omission. Such forms include, but are not limited to: cheating, plagiarism, self-plagiarism, knowingly furnishing false information to staff, faculty and other designated leaders, and forgery, alteration or use of any institution's or CAPA's documents or instruments of identification with intent to defraud.
- Disruptive behavior is prohibited, both in and outside the classroom. This includes, but is not limited to: unwanted sexual contact, sexual exposure, verbal abuse, physical assault and/or battery, harassment, threats to or intimidation of any person, student or staff member involved on any CAPA program.
- Use of social networking sites to bully, harass or intimidate any person, student or staff member involved on any CAPA program is prohibited.
- Possession or use of illegal drugs is strictly prohibited and will result in immediate dismissal from the program.
- Any act of theft or damage to any premises or property of any individual or institution, regardless if they are affiliated with the program or CAPA, is prohibited.
- You and your roommates must maintain your accommodations to an agreed standard of cleanliness. You are required to make a good faith effort to address any concerns by your roommates about the neatness or cleanliness of common and shared areas.
- You must follow all the rules set out in this contract and other rules distributed prior to departure and upon arrival pertaining to your residence and all other CAPA-designated residences and buildings, including homestays. It is YOUR responsibility to make yourself knowledgeable of all residential, academic, internship/service learning and behavioral rules and regulations.
- You must co-operate and remain respectful of the staff, faculty and other designated leaders/supervisors throughout the program.
- You must be responsible and respectful when dealing with neighbors and local citizens, for you are representing your institution, CAPA and your country while you are studying abroad.
- Students are required to provide CAPA with any information required by the local government in regards to visas and residence permits; this includes providing CAPA with your original passport for photocopying within a specified timeframe.
- CAPA does not provide alcoholic beverages at any CAPA-sponsored event. However, alcohol may be available for purchase directly from the venue at selected organized events. CAPA has the right to control the distribution of alcohol, eg. limit the number of beverages sold per person and to stop the selling of alcohol at least one hour prior to the end of an event. Additionally, CAPA has the right to deny entrance to and/or remove any student visibly intoxicated at any CAPA-sponsored event.
- Students are required to fulfil to the best of their ability all requirements in their academic and/or internship programs, including but not limited to, attendance, maintenance of adequate academic standing, and completion of coursework/internship work.
- All home campus codes and rules of behavior still apply while you are studying abroad and you may be subject to any additional disciplinary action your home institution chooses to take in addition to that taken by CAPA.
- CAPA is first and foremost committed to student safety and security, therefore we require all students to have a cellular phone while enrolled in our programs. It is the responsibility of each student to acquire a cellular phone either in the host country within the first week of arrival or in the U.S. prior to departure. If acquired in the U.S., you must ensure that you are able to send and receive text messages and voice calls from local (in country) phones. Detailed information about how to purchase or rent a local phone has been provided in your pre-departure material for the specific country in which you are studying. When not in class, you are required to keep your phone fully charged, operating with adequate credit, and switched on so that CAPA staff can reach you in the case of an emergency. Students are required to acquire a cellular phone, to report the number to in-country CAPA staff within the first week of the program, and to remain contactable by phone throughout the program.
B. Residential Rules – Apartments, Dormitories, Hotels:
- A high regard of the rights of all residents is essential for creating a healthy community spirit. Respect should be shown to all CAPA students and staff, as well as to others residing within the building and the neighborhood.
- Quiet Hours are to be enforced from 11:00pm to 7:00am seven days per week. Care is required when returning home to the residence as noise travels within hallways. Also, your neighbors will not tolerate loud drunken behavior, and they are not shy about calling the police or the local government authority to complain about loud noises. Thus, it is necessary to be courteous at all times.
- There is a strict NO OVERNIGHT GUEST policy in all CAPA residences. You must ensure that all non-CAPA guests are out of the residences during quiet hours. Also be aware that there is a NO GUEST POLICY in the residences during quiet hours, and this policy applies to CAPA students as well as non-CAPA guests. You must be respectful of your roommates and/or flatmates at all times.
- You are responsible for all people (i.e. fellow residents or guests), actions and activities that occur in your apartment/room. Therefore, it is your responsibility to help remind fellow residents and guests of these residential rules and to always adhere to CAPA's Code of Conduct.
- Possessing or using ANY illegal drug is STRICTLY prohibited, and all staff and faculty are required to call the police and report any suspicion of such illegal activity. Do not underestimate the seriousness of such an offence. In addition to being bound by local laws and methods of prosecution, any violator of CAPA's NO DRUG policy will be dismissed from the residence and from the program at his/her own expense.
- Throwing items such as food and trash out of windows is very dangerous and is not allowed.
- Gaining access to the roof for reasons other than exiting for a fire is not authorized, and offenders will be held responsible for all damage and/or injury incurred from such action. If necessary, final grades will be held until payment is made.
- For apartments and dormitories, you will be required to fill out the inventory checklist upon arrival and return it as instructed on the arrivals checklist. At the end of the program, the housing provider will assess all apartments/rooms for damages and missing items during check out and/or after departure, and you will be held accountable for all damages and any missing items in your apartment/room. Where it is not possible to determine who is responsible for the damage or missing item, the cost will be shared equally by all residents within the apartment/room. If necessary, final grades will be held until payment is made for these damages. Note that if CAPA/Landlord/Building Management have not been made aware of any issues in your flat prior to your check out, such issues cannot be considered when assessing your liability for damages.
- Residents must maintain accommodations to an agreed standard of cleanliness. Residents will make a good faith effort to address any concerns by the other party about the neatness or cleanliness of common and shared areas.
- You are accountable for all residential keys issued to you at the start of the program. If for any reason you lose your keys, you must inform CAPA immediately. Replacement keys may be purchased at a fee as determined by the housing provider. Should keys not be returned at the end of the program, you will be charged for replacing them.
- All home campus codes and rules of behavior still apply while you are studying abroad.
C. Residential Rules – Homestays:
- Respect must be shown to all CAPA students and staff as well as to all those residing within the homestay and its neighborhood during the program.
- Quiet Hours are to be enforced from 11:00pm to 7:00am seven days per week. Care is required when returning home to avoid disturbing your hosts. Also, your neighbors will not tolerate loud drunken behavior, and they are not shy about calling the police or the local government authority to complain about loud noises. Thus, you must be courteous and considerate at all times.
- Guests during the day are also not allowed unless you have prior permission from your hosts. Do not arrange meetings with your friends or classmates at your host's home. If you are dating, do not invite your boyfriend/girlfriend to go to your room. Do not invite guests to stay for meals.
- There is a strict NO OVERNIGHT GUEST policy in all CAPA homestays. Even if you have permission from your hosts to have guests in the house during the day, they must not ever spend the night. Do not ask your hosts for permission for guests to spend the night – in no cases is this acceptable.
- Although there is no specific curfew, you must notify your hosts when you will be home late. They feel responsible for your welfare and will worry if they do not know what time you plan to return.
- If you are going to be away overnight or for the weekend, you must inform your hosts in advance.
- You must maintain accommodations to an agreed standard of cleanliness. You must address any concerns raised by your hosts about the neatness or cleanliness of common and shared areas.
- You are responsible for all guests, actions and activities that occur in your room. Therefore, it is your responsibility to help remind guests of these rules and to always adhere to CAPA's Code of Conduct.
- Possessing or using ANY illegal drug is STRICTLY prohibited, and all staff, faculty and hosts are required to call the police and report any suspicion of such illegal activity. Do not underestimate the seriousness of such an offence. In addition to being bound by local laws and methods of prosecution, any violators of CAPA's NO DRUG policy will be dismissed from the homestay and from the program at his/her own expense.
- You are expected to keep your bedroom tidy and presentable.
- You must abide by the individual "house rules" set by your homestay – these rules apply to such things as the use of the television, phone, bathroom, washing machine, kitchen, as well as locking up at night.
- You will be held accountable for all damages you or your guests cause and any missing items from your room/homestay. If necessary, final grades will be held until payment is made for these damages.
- You are accountable for all keys issued to you at the start of the program. If for any reason you lose your keys, you must inform the CAPA CENTER immediately as the safety of your host family is also affected by this loss. Replacement keys may be purchased at a fee. Should keys not be returned at the end of the program, you will be charged for replacing them.
- Your host has been provided with a copy of CAPA's Code of Conduct and has been instructed to notify CAPA of any blatant breach of its contents. You should neither ask nor expect your hosts to ignore your disregard of any standards contained in this document.
- All home campus codes and rules of behavior still apply while you are studying abroad.
D. Fire regulations that must be followed in all residences and homestays:
- Smoking is prohibited in all CAPA housing.
- Candles are prohibited in all CAPA housing.
- Excessive use of extension cords is prohibited in all CAPA housing.
- Before using any appliances you have brought from the US, ensure that you have a voltage converter as well as a plug adapter. Failure to do so could result in damage to your appliance as well as electrical shock.
- Multi-plug adaptors which allow you to plug multiple appliances into one plug socket are prohibited in all CAPA housing.
- Barbecues are prohibited in all CAPA housing.
- Tampering with fire alarms and sensors is against the law and strictly enforced. If anybody is caught doing so, both you and CAPA will be subject to criminal prosecution.
- Any additional fire regulations and instructions displayed in your housing must be followed.
E. Academic Rules:
- Class attendance is mandatory. Three unexcused absences result in an F for the course. Medical excuses and verification of family emergencies should be sent to CAPA's Director of Academic Programs for your program location, as explained during orientation.
- All forms of dishonesty which undermine the academic purpose of the program or a related out-of-classroom program activity are prohibited, whether they occur by act or omission. Such forms include, but are not limited to: cheating, plagiarism, self-plagiarism, knowingly furnishing false information to staff, faculty and other designated leaders, and forgery, alteration or use of any institution's or CAPA's documents or instruments of identification with intent to defraud. (See each course syllabus for more detailed information on plagiarism.)
- Disruptive and disrespectful behavior is prohibited in the classroom and during out-of-classroom activities. This includes, but is not limited to unwanted sexual contact, sexual exposure, verbal abuse, assault and/or battery, harassment, threats to or intimidation of any person, student or staff member involved on any CAPA program.
- Use of laptops, iPhones and other media devices in the classroom is prohibited unless approved by the instructor.
- All home campus codes of conduct and rules of behavior relative to academic affairs remain in effect during a CAPA program. Students are still subject to any disciplinary action that their home institutions may choose to enforce in addition to that taken by CAPA.
F. Internship & Service Learning Rules:
- Interns must observe the working rules and company guidelines, respect the interests of the internship/service learning site and observe codes of confidentiality.
- Interns are required to complete all time sheets, have them signed by an identified site supervisor and return them to the CAPA Internship department by pre-set deadlines.
- Interns must inform their internship/service learning site and CAPA internships department staff immediately when unable to go to work due to illness or any other extenuating circumstances.
- Interns are required to attend (if registered) the mandatory Learning Through Internship (LTI) or Service Learning course and produce all necessary paperwork and portfolio work to meet the program requirements.

- Interns are required to arrange a work schedule with their site supervisor and to inform the site supervisor of any scheduled half term breaks or special events occurring during the program.
- Interns are expected to maximize every opportunity to develop and improve their knowledge of the field in which they are interning.
- Interns in London must adhere at all times to the United Kingdom Boarder Agency (UKBA) rules and regulations throughout the internship/service learning program. This will include, but is not limited to adherence of the UKBA's 50:50 policy, in which students will not exceed the established accumulative Internship/Service Learning placement hours designated for their study abroad program.
G. Disciplinary Action and Procedures:
- If a student is found to be in violation of any of the above, a disciplinary warning will be generated by CAPA staff and issued to the student.
- For a first offence, a first warning will be issued and your home institution will be notified.
- A second offence will result in a second warning, an incident form will be filed at CAPA, and your home institution will be notified.
- For a third offence, there will be a consultation with the Director of Student Affairs or another senior member of CAPA staff, with possible expulsion from CAPA housing and/or the program. Your home institution will also be notified and consulted, to agree on a course of action.
- CAPA reserves the right to by-pass the first and second warning stage(s) of disciplinary action when extreme behavior/actions warrant immediate administrative assessment and follow up. Additionally, CAPA reserves the right to expel any student(s) from any CAPA residence and from the program if they should breach the above rules and code of conduct, and no refunds for program fees will be provided. Additionally, grades will not be released until any damages are paid for in full. Note that your home institution may also take additional disciplinary action.
Any actions or behaviors that could compromise the physical, emotional or social well-being of yourself or others, may result in dismissal from the CAPA program. This code of conduct has been designed to ensure that the rights and safety of all participants are protected and maintained in order to create a healthy community and program spirit.
Contacting Your Student While Abroad
As your student embarks on their study abroad experience, it is important to discuss the ways you'll be communicating with them while they are away. One important point to keep in mind is that, due to differences in time zones and the expense of calling foreign numbers, you may not be able to communicate by phone or email as frequently as you do when your student is at school. Included in this section are helpful and inexpensive tips for staying in touch, as well as instructions on dialing international phone numbers, where to send mail to students and information on the CAPA emergency phone line.
Cell Phones Abroad
If your student would like to have a cell phone for their term abroad, we recommend you look over the information on cell phone rentals that will beprovided to them in their pre-departure materials. Another option is for your student to rent or a buy a cell phone once they arrive in country. It is important to note that, while incoming calls may be free, there are often roaming charges and rates on outgoing calls (particularly if they are international calls) that can add up quickly
Dialing Internationally
Buenos Aires: The country code for Argentina is 54, and the domestic area code for Buenos Aires is 11. To call Argentina from the U.S., dial: 011 + 54 + Area Code + number.
Florence: Dial 011, the Italian country code of 39, and the number. For example: 055 246 64 39 would be dialed: 011 39 055 246 64 39.
London: When calling a UK number from the US, you must first dial 011 for all international calls, then the UK country code of 44, and then drop the first zero of the phone number. For example: 020 7370 7389 would be dialed: 011 44 20 7370 7389.
Sydney: Dial 011, the Australian country code of 61, and the phone number. For example: 2 9492 3263 would be dialed: 011 61 2 9492 3263.
Sending Mail
When sending mail or packages to your student, please send them directly to the CAPA program where they are studying and not to their accommodation. Be sure their name and home institution are clearly marked on the envelope.
Alternate Means of Communication
In addition to cell phone and landline communication, there are many internet-based options available to you. Two popular platforms for phone calls are Google Voice and Skype, which are often far cheaper than international calling cards. You also may encourage your student to keep a blog while they're away, which they can update with photos and details of their experiences. As students will most likely be busy over the course of their semester abroad, blogs can be a great way to stay connected. Facebook and Twitter are also useful tools for receiving updates from your student.
In Case of an Emergency
Please call the CAPA emergency phone at 1-617-999-8126. A CAPA representative will be able to assist you 24 hours a day.
Thank you for having the confidence in CAPA International Education's programs. We look forward to having your student join our program!
In choosing to study abroad, your student will participate in an educational experience that many call "life changing." He or she will learn about another culture in a deeply meaningful way that may quite possibly change the way he or she looks at the world and interacts with people who are "different." Indeed, some research suggests that study abroad students' cross-cultural experiences result in new values, attitudes, and understandings.
This is not to say that transitioning to a new culture will necessarily be easy. There are often three stages to becoming acclimated to study abroad surroundings: an initial stage of excitement upon arriving at the new destination, a stage of confusion and disorientation that occurs as students adjust to their new and very unfamiliar surroundings, and a final stage of immersion in the new culture which finds the student increasingly able to communicate with and navigate through the new environment.
Each student will experience each stage in a unique way. However, as a parent, you may receive messages of frustration or sadness initially from your student. Please know that this is not unusual…being surrounded by very different things can be very stressful indeed! However, your student should begin to better master and feel more comfortable in his or her surroundings, feeling more confident every day.
CAPA has many resources available to counsel students as they adjust to their new surroundings, just as students' home campuses offer counsel to students. CAPA is dedicated to each student having as personally and academically meaningful study abroad experience as possible!
CAPA International Education understands that your student's academic and personal growth is very important to you because this growth is also important to us!
While your student is abroad, encourage him or her to investigate as many aspects of the new city as possible…and to stay away from spending lots of time on social media, skyping, or emailing friends and family. This is your student's time to explore new surroundings, become familiar with what seems to be unfamiliar, and to grow as a person and as a student. Spending time on the Internet takes time away from such exploration and opportunities for personal growth.
CAPA International Education will provide your student with many opportunities to learn and engage in the local culture; these opportunities will be tailored to meet your student's interests and studies. Do everything you can to encourage your student to take advantage of these activities!
Just as your student prepared to leave home and school to study abroad, he or she will need to prepare to return home. What was once unfamiliar has now become familiar. What was once a source of frustration now has become a source of mastery and pride.
Many students will feel disoriented upon their return home as they readjust to their home surroundings. Your student will want to talk about everything he or she learned and sometimes these conversations may include views that are new and different. New attitudes and views may be expressed that are surprising or unexpected. This is all to be expected and a product of your student trying on his or her new knowledge and experiences back home.
Certainly, your students will be more independent and confident. They may appear to be less reliant on first impressions and more accepting of that which is unfamiliar and/or different. These are signs of an acquired maturity that will serve your student well later in life.
Families often have many questions before and while their family member is abroad. We hope you find the following questions helpful. If you do have any questions, please do not hesitate to call us at 1-800-793-0334.

I simply began typing, with a vague idea of a plot idea that I wanted to get out of my head (I've been doin' lots of that lately) and so, I'm tossing this out there, to see how it goes. Obviously, it's unfinished.
Recently, I decided to revamp and recreate some characters from the Celtic/fae world I was creating with a friend. Here's the introduction of one of those newly remade characters.
This is a solo for one of my characters, Maerynn, in order to introduce her to the StoneSinger RP my friend Pam started some time ago. It was born out of frustration about the character and yet, in the end, Maerynn and I came to an understanding.
The title explains it. Sorry it took so long to get up here.
I'll be the first to admit this story isn't finished in the strictest sense of the word, but from m'character's viewpoint, it is, having not wanted others to know the story of what happened when she was in Scotland, rescuing her god-daughter.
The pair in this story are relatively new characters of mine, give or take a few months. I decided, after much consideration and since they were both in the same country, why not have them meet up? It started out as a solo for an RP I'm involved in with a friend but it twisted itself into something a li'l more than that and the two characters developed the story nicely.
The title is rather self-explanatory. Part 2 of 'once to crash, twice to burn'.
It was a rainy day and I felt I just had to write this story. It's a simple sketch and meant to be part of a collection of similar sketches. Somehow, I haven't had that 'rainy day' inspiration since this story.
Isn't it a dream when characters set up camp in your head and they start telling you what they want you to know about 'em? That's what Rhapsody did, as soon as she knew I was awake - barely awake and I couldn't quite comprehend what was being said. This turned out to be more of a sketch, than a story, but it's Rhapsody's introduction 'cause she's decided she wants to be known to the world at large.
I'm not certain I should actually put this story up at all but I did promise and here it is. It's certainly too long to be put up here in its entirity, so it's being placed here in sections. I had an idea for a story, so I wrote it down. I had an idea for a character just before the story and she shaped this story into what it has become.

This video was something of a breakthrough for me. I've been in a bit of a slump these past few months, barely even touching any editing, and I was starting to worry that I was loosing my love for it. But then my friend and I finally finished the .hack//G.U. games, and that was it. I HAD to make a video to it, you see. It's worthy of so much more attention then it's gotten; consider this my contribution to the awareness effort, as it were.
The process for this video was incredibly short; I was flipping through my music library, looking for something that would fit G.U., and after I'd listened through about thirty seconds of this song, I knew I wouldn't need to look any further. Luckily I'd already gotten all the footage ready and organized, so when I put the song down around 8 pm, I didn't have to hunt everything down. That being said, I worked straight through the night (and into the morning) and had completed a satisfactory edit (with only a few rough spots) by 9 am. There was never a point where I found myself wondering what to do next, and even though it's been years since I've been able to finish a video in under twenty hours and be happy with it, I Am Happy With This. (Granted, the speed might be attributed to the complete lack of special effects and fancy technical doo-hickeys except for a lone zoom, and if anyone can pick it out I will give them a free opinion on a video of their choosing, not that I wouldn't op something if asked anyway, but I think I did a pretty good job making the zoom look natural and geez this is a long parenthesis...)
And thank you to frogmelon for catching the tiny glitchy problems in beta (you have sharp eyes, my friend).
Anyway! I hope you enjoy watching this video as much as I enjoyed making it, and let me know what you thought of it.

Getting a Passport
The U.S. Postal Service and the U.S. Department of State work together issuing passports to U.S. citizens. They provide multiple services to expedite this process and make it easier for you to understand.
The USPS has an interactive map that allows you to find post office locations nearby. However, make sure the location contains passport distribution services. You can find these by clicking the "Location Types" dropdown menu and selecting the "Passport" option.
You can fill out the passport application online, print it out and then bring it (along with the additional required documents) to a relevant post office. This should save you and the post office time. You may, of course, still receive and fill out the application at the post office too.
Once the post office has your application and documents, you will need to:
- pay a fee (for a regular adult passport book, it will typically cost $110 for the application and $25 for an execution fee);
- provide a picture (most post offices can take a picture of you on the spot); and
- let them do the rest.
Once your passport is ready, the post office will mail you your official United States of America passport.
The USPS recommends that you apply for your passport several months before you need it. Processing times can vary, so it's better to do it earlier rather than later. Typically, it takes about four weeks to process an application. However, if you need to get your passport in a hurry, they do provide expedited services — such as using Priority Mail.
Even though the process sounds a bit intimidating, it remains completely doable — as long as you've done your research!

Paul Thomas Anderson
More Information Below:
The only companion book to the much-anticipated follow-up to Paul Thomas Anderson's critically hailed Boogie Nights that "leaves you no doubt you are in the presence of a natural-born filmmaker."--David Ansen, Newsweek. The much-heralded writer-director deliberately withheld information about his new film during production because "I feel lately as if I know everything about a movie before I see it, and I really want the audience to discover this purely." Featuring an ensemble cast (see below), in, in an unbilled role, Tom Cruise (who called Anderson to express interest in working with him), the film is now described as "a story about family relationships and bonds that have been broken and need to be mended in one day...set in the San Fernando Valley on a day full of rain with no clouds." Magnolia: The Illustrated Screenplay includes the complete shooting script, introduction and script notes by Anderson, a photo section with about 40 photos in color, and interview with the writer/director, and complete cast and crew credits.

- How to Read a Study Record
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from a person's dendritic cells mixed with tumor peptides and proteins may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Infusing the vaccine directly into the lymphatic system may cause a stronger immune response and kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of two dendritic cell vaccines in treating patients with stage III or stage IV melanoma.
Condition | Intervention | Phase |
Melanoma (Skin) |
Biological: polarized dendritic cells Biological: non-polarized dendritic cells |
Phase 1 |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Allocation: Randomized Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment Masking: Open Label Primary Purpose: Treatment |
Official Title: | Phase I Evaluation of Alpha-Type-1 DC-Based and cDC-Based Intralymphatic Vaccines in Patients With Metastatic Melanoma |
- Safety of intralymphatic autologous type-1-polarized dendritic cell vaccine and autologous mature dendritic cell vaccine [ Time Frame: 7 years ]
- Assess immune responses to each dendritic cell vaccine outcome [ Time Frame: 7 ]
i. Peripheral blood CD8+ and CD4+ T cell responses against HLA-presented melanoma epitopes, and (in patients with available tumor tissue) against autologous tumor cells, and using IFNγ-, and IL-5- ELISPOT assays. CD8+ T cell responses (IFNγ ELISPOT) will be used as a secondary readout: the sum of the specific ELISPOT counts obtained (at week 8) with each of the individual HLA-A2-restricted peptides (less the respective counts obtained before the treatment), will be considered as a primary indication of the vaccine effectiveness.
ii. Delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) response to the mix of the melanoma-related peptides, injected intradermally in vivo, and DTH to autologous tumor lysates, in all cases when autologous tumor tissue is available.
iii. Delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) responses to KLH and PADRE injected intradermally in vivo.

Study Start Date: | October 2006 |
Study Completion Date: | January 2015 |
Primary Completion Date: | May 2012 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
Arms | Assigned Interventions |
Experimental: peptide-pulsed type-1-polarized dendritic cells
intralymphatic vaccination with peptide-pulsed type-1-polarized dendritic cells (aDC1)
Biological: polarized dendritic cells |
Experimental: peptide-pulsed mature non-polarized dendritic cells (cDCs)
intralymphatic vaccination with peptide-pulsed mature non-polarized dendritic cells (cDCs)
Biological: non-polarized dendritic cells |
Detailed Description:
- Compare the safety of intralymphatic autologous type-1-polarized dendritic cell vaccine vs autologous mature dendritic cell vaccine loaded with antigenic peptides and proteins in patients with stage III or IV melanoma.
- Determine peripheral blood CD8+ and CD4+ T-cell responses to HLA-presented melanoma epitopes and autologous tumor cells using interferon gamma and interleukin-5 ELISPOT assay.
- Compare the delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) responses to these regimens and DTH to autologous tumor lysates in these patients.
- Compare the DTH response to keyhole limpet hemocyanin and pan-DR epitope (PADRE) in these patients.
- Correlate treatment-associated changes in immune response with clinical outcome.
OUTLINE: This is a randomized, open-label, dose-escalation study. Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 formulations of dendritic cell (DC) vaccines.
- Arm I: Patients receive intralymphatic autologous type-1-polarized (by interleukin-1-beta, tumor necrosis factor [TNF] alfa, interferon alfa, poly-I:C, and interferon gamma) DC vaccine that has been loaded with tumor-related peptide antigens (gp100:209-217[210M] peptide, tyrosinase peptide, MART-1:27-35 peptide, MAGE-3/6, and EphA2) and proteins (keyhole limpet hemocyanin [KLH; first course] or pan-DR epitope [PADRE] [second course]) every 6 hours on days 1-4 of weeks 1 and 6.
- Arm II: Patients receive intralymphatic autologous mature (by interleukin-1-beta, TNF alfa, interleukin-6, and prostaglandin E_2) DC vaccine that has been loaded with tumor-related peptide antigens and proteins as in arm I every 6 hours on days 1-4 of weeks 1 and 6.
Patients achieving complete response receive 2 more courses of treatment (3 months apart). Patients achieving partial response receive up to 10 more courses of treatment (1 month apart) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
In each arm, cohorts of 4-7 patients receive escalating doses of DC vaccine until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose at which no more than 1 of 7 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.
Blood samples are obtained at baseline and periodically during and after treatment. Samples are examined by immunoenzyme techniques for immunologic measurements.
After completion of study therapy, patients are followed periodically for 10½ years and then annually thereafter.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 40 patients will be accrued for this study.

Q: What do Winston Churchill, Albert Einstein, and Sir John Gurdon have in common?
A: They all did terribly in school as children yet went on to accomplish great things.
Does this mean that all children who do terribly at school will go on to have outstanding careers of great import to society? Of course not. However we should think twice before proclaiming unsuccessful the little boy or girl in our class who can't sit still, won't follow the directions at the top of the page, has awful handwriting, and spends his or her days apparently ignoring what is being taught. Instead such children should make us work harder at trying to understand what makes them tick. All children have something they are good at. We just need to find what it is and help the gift grow.

Far be it for us to complain about what your home looks like — frankly, we've never been invited inside. But we're fairly certain it could use a little "freshening." And while we think Candice Olson of HGTV's Divine Design, which airs daily, is certainly one of the most stylish — and fertile — interior designers on TV, this week we're much more interested in how she styles a room.
With the holidays right around the corner, this is the time of year when most people look to redecorate their homes. You're going to have company over and you don't want people to think you've got bad taste, right? But if you don't have the wherewithal to hire some long-legged, fancy blonde from Canada, you can watch Candice perform miracles, then head over to SeenON.com and re-create one of the rooms she's highlighted on her show.
SeenON.com is a great source for finding the clothes being worn by your favorite stars, but now the Web site is featuring all of the decorative pieces Olson has chosen for her televised re-creations, where to buy them and how much they cost — something we never seem to learn from Candice.
So, if you wanted a modern room with classic features based on Olson's remodeling of a basement suite, you'll need to start with the biggies — namely a sofa and chair. Olson chose Norwalk Furniture's Horizon sofa and its Otis chair in white. Both reflect minimalist lines while the chair is detailed with track arms and a sculpted back. For a real multipurpose fixture, Olson went with an abaca ottoman from Crate & Barrel. It has an hourglass figure woven from naturally multitonal abaca, and it can also be used as a nightstand, end table seat or stool.
Another great piece is a rosewood hall chest from Elte Santos. It's both elegant and minimalistic and works perfectly against the white primary pieces.
Of course, as you probably know, the key to beautiful design is in the details. And keeping with Olson's taste, she chose a pair of white Dorset vases from Simon Pearce as well as the label's Weathersfield berry bowl. Accent lighting is also key, and Olson recommended the crystal, white and nickel Marlene table lamp from Crate & Barrel. Another beautiful selection was a Desert Sunset 5.5-inch rose bowl by Waterford.
For the walls, artwork includes Les Fenetres De La Rue Bruyere by Wendy Farrow as well as Plate Series by Jane Teglas. Both are available from Canvas Gallery.
Whether you can get all of these items delivered in time for the new year is anyone's guess, but we suggest you give it a shot because Candice is busy.

Plane crashes at Nanaimo Lakes
A pilot has survived with minor injuries after his aircraft crashed in Nanaimo Lakes Second Lake Tuesday morning.
Emergency crews were called at about 9:30 a.m. when the small Christavia two-seater float plane hit the water.
Const. Gary O'Brien, Nanaimo RCMP spokesman, said the pilot, 70, from Nanaimo, was out for a morning flight with his dog when the plane went down.
He had no information as to what led to the crash, as information was still trickling in from emergency crews at the scene. There is no cell service in the area and radio communications are hindered by the mountainous terrain around the crash location about 30 kilometres southwest of Nanaimo.
"A squadron Cormorant (helicopter) from Comox attended to the area," O'Brien said. "The plane was towed to shore by a local logging company."
B.C. Ambulance paramedics and RCMP also rushed to the scene.
"He was relatively uninjured," O'Brien said. " He was treated at the scene and elected not to go to the hospital."
O'Brien had no information about the condition of the pilot's dog or the condition of the aircraft.
The Transportation Safety Board was contacted and will interview the pilot at a later date.

With 48 games in 99 days, there's not a lot of time to digest what happened in any single contest. So as we churn through this compressed Capitals season, I'll be rounding up my thoughts and analysis of each game here.
>> A few teams around the NHL wrap up every home game by gathering at center ice to raise their sticks in a salute to their fans, and the Capitals did the same following their 3-2 win over the Sabres on Sunday.
It's a rare occurrence at Verizon Center, but according to John Erskine, the players wanted to express their gratitude to the fans.
"I think it was just a team thing," said Erskine, who said Alex Ovechkin and a few other players came up with the idea. "I think the fans kind of hung in there and were loyal to us during the tough time there, and it was just kind of our way of saying 'thank you' to them.
"I think everybody was on board. We just wanted to thank the fans."
Given all that's happened with a delayed start to the season and the Capitals' lackluster performances the first two home games, it was a nice gesture.
>> While it's safe to assume that both goaltenders will see a share of the remaining 43 games, Michal Neuvirth stepped up to give the Capitals stellar performances in each of the past two games and make his bid on the No. 1 starting spot for the time being.
He stopped 54 of the 59 combined shots he's faced against New Jersey and Buffalo and bailed out his teammates more than a few times. Given that Washington is still working out the kinks of its new system, the importance of strong outings in goal cannot be overstated.
Neuvirth has been up to the task, serving as a safety net by keeping the Capitals in games and allowing them time to get on track or shake off a bad shift. Entering a shortened season where many might have written him off as a backup to Braden Holtby, Neuvirth is showing he's not about to cede the top spot on the depth chart just because he didn't play in the 2012 postseason.
>> Five games into the season, Joel Ward has half the goals he had all of last season (six).
Hampered by a sports hernia and one of the many who fell out of favor with former coach Dale Hunter, Ward was inconsistent at best in his first season in Washington, saw his minutes per game dip to single digits and went 42 games without a goal at one point. It wasn't until his series-winning goal against the Boston Bruins in the first round, that Ward showed why he received a four-year, $12 million contract as a free agent in 2011.
This year Ward is taking advantage of his fresh start under Coach Adam Oates, crashing the net at even strength, on the power play and giving Washington another big body in front willing to hack away at rebounds and bouncing pucks.
He likely won't produce at this rate all season, but the early success is helping to rebuild his confidence.
"I do try to play for the respect of my teammates first, and once your linemates have a good trust in you, I think things kind of flow a little bit easier," Ward said. "I've played with [Jason Chimera] before, and last year too a little bit, and we had a little bit of a connection at the start there. It's just being out there, being confident and you know, people got your back. I think once that happens … you can kind of relieve a little bit of pressure off yourself and just go out there and work hard and have fun."
>> Has Oates found line combinations that might stick? After the Capitals killed a penalty to John Erskine early in the second, Oates reunited Alex Ovechkin with Nicklas Backstrom and Troy Brouwer for a more conventional top line and balanced forward group.
Putting Ovechkin back with Backstrom and Brouwer seemed to spark all three players as they used strong puck possession to create sustained offensive pressure.
"I think again I think it's more mentally and the guys get in shape. When you in shape, you have more power and more physicality," Ovechkin said. "I think our line — Brouwsy and me — can hit and you can see when we have the puck control in our hands it's very tough to get it back. So it was good."
Meantime, Ward, Chimera and Mike Ribeiro played their second game together and are showing signs of growing chemistry. Chimera and Ward are more than happy to drive the net and work to find open space while Ribeiro controls the tempo. They all played a part in Washington's first goal of the game against the Sabres,
"Ribs is so dynamic that he – his patience is unbelievable. He holds onto the puck and not just his plays, but he works hard, too. He's not the biggest guy, obviously, but he wins battles out there, and I think that's key for Chimmer and I," Ward said. "We've just got to go find and get the pucks and give it to him and let him do his little thing and we can try and get open. So far, it's been working pretty good.
After the switch in the second period, the third line featured Jay Beagle centering Wojtek Wolski and Joey Crabb. Beagle and Crabb in particular seem well-suited to each other; they're both tireless workers and seem to have an endless supply of energy to win loose pucks and 50-50 battles all over the ice.
"Before the lockout just playing shinny and stuff we found that we had good chemistry," Beagle said Saturday. "Obviously that doesn't really account for much when you're kind of playing shinny but for some reason me and him just click. We've been saying that right from the get-go. It's fun to play with him; we kind of have similar styles."
The fourth line might be the biggest unknown at this point. Matt Hendricks has been a consistent contributor at even strength and on the penalty kill (he's averaging 2:26 of shorthanded ice time per contest) throughout the first five games. But will Mathieu Perreault do enough to warrant the increase in ice time that he wants? And how quickly will Marcus Johansson work through his early-season slump? Can Eric Fehr, who has two shots on goal in two games, provide the offensive depth he was brought in for?

CBN.com EATING HIMSELF SICK
When Asa was in medical school, he temporarily left in 1995 to become a member of The Power Team, a strength-based group of athletes. As the smallest member of the team, Asa felt like he needed to put on weight. So he ate everything in sight. After Asa hit the 300-pound mark, he realized he got sleepy after meals, was sweating at night and had trouble breathing. Test results showed that Asa had Type-2 Diabetes. He ate so much, he made himself sick.
"My body couldn't handle the rising and falling of the blood sugar. I was eating the wrong kinds of foods, and too many of them," says Asa. "I had to make a decision." He knew that the same intensity he used to put on the weight he would need to use to take it off.
After six months of radical change, Asa got down to 235 pounds. "I took responsibility for my own health, because no one else could do it for me," he says.
At his next physical, Asa's doctor was astounded. Asa's blood sugar was under control, his pancreas was working again and he was no longer a diabetic. "The great news is that what worked for me can also help anyone," says Asa. "The choices you make today will affect the health you will have tomorrow. Remember, your body is constantly regenerating from the foods you eat, the exercise you choose to do. Your health is your greatest wealth," he says.
Now, Dr. Asa is also the physician assisting Mike Weaver, lead singer for Big Daddy Weave, in his weight loss progress. Mike has a goal of losing 90 pounds in 2009. Currently he has lost 45 (see Mike's story).
"Mike will hit his goal this year," says Dr. Asa. "We are working on his thyroid gland and hormones in order to get past this plateau."
Dr. Asa suggests that if we find ourselves in a weight-loss plateau, there are things we can do to trick the body to get past it naturally. Exercise six days a week for 30 to 45 minutes each day. "At 46 minutes, the body gets stressed and cortisol levels in the body rise which burns muscle and stores fat," he says.
Dr. Asa founded The Center for Natural Medicine which is located in Nashville, TN. It is a state-of-the-art wellness clinic designed to help people attain and maintain extraordinary health.

You enjoyed my embarrassment when I executed a search warrant for marijuana plants only to discover they were really tomato plants. There's more. This incident involves another narcotic investigating venture in 1980. Two patrol officers were dispatched to check out a suspicious pickup truck. As the officers arrived, the occupant fled on foot into the night. The truck had about 250 packaged marijuana kilos in the back. (That's over 500 pounds for you math whizzes). I responded from home and we impounded the truck, placing a "police hold" on it. I logged the dreaded Devil Weed into evidence. The truck was registered to a Pedro Rojas in San Ysidro. When I went to that residence the next day it was vacant. Periodically I would try to find Rojas, but without success. He was "in the wind." There wasn't enough evidence to get an arrest warrant for him, so I let the matter simmer. He never reported the vehicle stolen. So it sat in the tow yard, piling up storage charges. A few months went by during which time I continued my relentless pursuit of other lawbreakers. One afternoon an office clerk notified me that a person was at the front counter to obtain a release for an impounded vehicle upon which I had placed a hold. I introduced myself to the man. In his possession he had what I would loosely term a handwritten "bill of sale" for the truck used to transport the marijuana. Apparently Pedro Rojas had sold him the truck and the "new owner" was at the police station to get a signed release so he could pick up his pre-owned truck. I asked him how I might be able to get in touch with Mr. Rojas. Not surprisingly, he told me he did not know how to contact Rojas. I asked what he would do if Rojas owed him money. How would he find Rojas? He said he didn't speak English too well and didn't know what I was saying. Of course. I went to the copy machine. (Follow this closely). I put my hand on the glass, palm up, folding all of my fingers inward in the shape of a fist, except for the extended middle finger, sometimes called the "driving finger." I pressed the "copy" button. I gave the copy to the man. "You're not getting the truck. Please give this paper to Pedro Rojas and tell him it's from Detective Basinski and I need to talk with him." In my estimation, those instructions seemed pretty clear: 1) Deliver a piece of paper to someone, and 2) Tell him to contact me. Did he do that? NOOOOO! Instead, he gave the paper to the president of the San Ysidro Chamber of Commerce who promptly phoned Chief of Police Bill Winters to complain about your favorite detective - me. The chief assigned the complaint to my sergeant who came to me with the same smile he always had when investigating a complaint against me. Sgt. Bob Bourgeois said, "Tom, it looks like you've done it again. What's this all about?" I patiently explained that, what to some, might seem like a politically incorrect, possibly racist (isn't everything racist?) act, was actually an innovative, ingenuous, creative method of police investigative technique. I couldn't very well deny it was my hand because right there in the photocopy was my college graduation ring. No other Chula Vista cops attended St. Mary's University in San Antonio, Texas. "What?" Sergeant Bourgeois asked. "You see, I was trying to get Pedro Rojas so upset at me for giving him the finger by proxy that he would personally complain. When he arrived here I would ask about the 500 pounds of marijuana in his truck and how it got there. I would take his picture to see if the uniformed patrol officers could recognize him in a photo lineup. Pretty damned good police work, if you ask me." No one did ask me. The complaint was "sustained." I told Sgt. Bob to put the complaint with the others and I would try to do better next time. "Sure," he said, not very convincingly. Basinski was a Chula Vista police officer for 17 years and a district attorney investigator for 17 years.

Flashback Picture! Half-Naked Kim Kardashian and Kanye West in 2008 Stars Wars Costumes
Proof that they're old friends -- and share the same sense of humor!
In the spirit of Halloween, Kim Kardashian tweeted an old photo of herself and boyfriend Kanye West dressed up in costumes. "Throwback Thursday me and Yeezy 2008," she tweeted Thursday, Oct. 25.
PHOTOS: Why Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are the perfect match
In the vintage photo, Kardashian, 32, is dressed up as a sexy Princess Leia and West, 35, is wearing a Stormtrooper costume from Star Wars. The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star flaunts her toned tummy in a revealing gold bra, and styles the iconic hair buns.
So, what's with the getup?
Back in 2008, Kardashian helped out her pal West by appearing as a guest in a sketch for the Comedy Central TV pilot, Alligator Boots, which he co-created. The skit also included a crude puppet, Beary White, who made forward sexual comments towards Kardashian, which West had to stop.
PHOTOS: Kim and Kanye pack on the PDA
Sadly, the puppet show never made it past the pilot, The Daily Mail reports. But they'll always share that memory in common! The stars (introduced via Kardashian's former pal Brandy Norwood) took their friendship to the next level in March 2012.
PHOTOS: Kim's TMI Twitter pics
"When this whole life is done, and it's just the two of us sitting somewhere when we're 80, you want to have things to talk about that you have in common," Kardashian told New York Magazine in August of her connection with the "Watch the Throne" rapper. "I think that's something maybe I didn't value as highly as a quality I cared about in someone."

Alzheimer's Disease |
Can I Have Early Onset Alzhemier`s10/25/2010 |
I'm 38 years old and am having trouble remembering. I also have speech problems and my words don't come out right. I have been having joint pain, tiredness, and headaches.
There are many causes of memory issues. At your age, Alzheimer's is very unlikely. However, these symptoms may be a part of a serious condition and I would recommend for you to visit a doctor right away.

Columbia Marching Band Banned From Game For Being Slightly Irreverent
Columbia's marching band was banned (and subsequently un-banned) from performing at Saturday's football game against Brown for pointing out the simple fact that Columbia hasn't won a game all season. After every game, the band plays the school fight song "Roar, Lions, Roar." But after the team gave up 62 points to Cornell last Saturday, the band altered the lyrics, according to Bwog:
Last Saturday at Cornell, football coaches overheard the band performing an alternate version of the fight song that mocked the Columbia team. "We always lose, lose, lose; by a lot and sometimes by a little," the lyrics read. (The team is 0-9, and gave up 62 points in the Cornell game). Coaches alerted the Athletics department, which soon introduced the sanctions. The ban means that the band is prohibited from bringing their uniforms and instruments to the game, and they won't be allowed to perform pre-game or halftime shows. Many are upset since the Brown game is traditionally when CUMB and other Columbia spirit groups celebrate the senior members of the football team and band.
Trouble in paradise! The marching band had to put its tail between its legs and release an apology for having a sense of humor:
The Columbia University Marching Band would like to apologize to the members of our community, in particular to our fellow classmates and coaches, who were offended by the incident that occurred on November 12 at the Columbia vs. Cornell football game. We accept the consequences and look forward to continue to be a part of our school spirit for future athletic events. We are disappointed that we will be unable to perform at Saturday's football game - the last game for seniors both in the band and on the football team. All season, we have been ardent supporters of the football team, rain or shine. The band will be at Saturday's game just as we are every week cheering for our Columbia Lions, win or lose. We look forward to supporting our athletic teams for many years in the future.
In the end, the Columbia sports department decided to allow the marching band to play, though not before teaching them a valuable lesson about poking fun at jocks.

Watch Luke Goss burn pavement and do his best "driving" pantomime. All we need now is Joan Allen threatening to defecate on the sidewalk! Advertisement As you can see the "prequel" pulls a lot from the Paul W.S. Anderson movie, which means lots of lady lump slo-mo shots, explosions, weaponized cars and, hopefully, a line that can top Joan Allen's infamous quip, "Fuck with me, and we'll see who shits on the sidewalk!" Basically, we're in.Here's the official synopsis: Advertisement Death Race 2 takes place in the very near future, as the United States economy begins to decline and violent crime starts to spiral out of control. To contain the growing criminal population, a vast network of for-profit, private prisons springs up, creating a lawless subculture ruled by gangs, cold-blooded killers and sociopaths. The worst of these prisons is Terminal Island, where inmates fight each other in a highly rated televised death match, where there are no rules, and the winner is the one who survives the gladiator-style, no-holds-barred competition. Convicted cop-killer Carl Lucas (Luke Goss) arrives on the Island to serve his life sentence just as ruthlessly ambitious television personality September Jones evolves the death match into the ultimate reality show – Death Race. A brutal prison yard demolition derby that pits prisoners against each other in steel reinforced, heavily armed vehicles, Death Race offers the winner the ultimate prize: freedom - if he can survive to enjoy it.Death Race 2 will be released on Blu-ray and DVD on January 19th, 2011.

Did God Create Xenosaga?
March 2003
Yes, I believe God made Xenogears....who else?! I can't get enough of it. I just want to play and play and not goto school and play. Of course my school is College and they can care less but still!!! What do you people of API believe?
March 2003
i did?
Damned if i remember doing that....
March 2003
Gene, i think your post alludes to the unseen connections between Xenogears and Xenosaga.....either that or you meant to type Xenosaga but had Xenogears on your mind. In either case i would have to say yes, most definitely. I'm also going to say hopefully they didn't break that mold yet though as they still have a couple more games in the series(5 to be exact) that they need to make even more kick@ss than this Episode was.
Oh, and for those curious, Xenosaga follows a variation of the Perfect Works book and flows it's full story over 6 episodes. Each story arc is rumored to cross over 2 episodes each with Episode 2 supposedly following the story of Shion's brother(but we'll see). So, now when someone asks what the greatest RPG is....you'll say? Actually with all the RPGs out right now it's hard to say which is better so we'll just say a combo of all the ones that have come out recently(Xenosaga, Dark Cloud 2, Breath of Fire) and a couple that have been out(Final Fantasy X, Wild Arms 3). Needless to say though, the PS2 is definitely for RPG lovers(especially with a slew of new ones scheduled for this fall(including Star Ocean, FFX-2, and i can't think of anymore off the top of my head right now).
Well, i hope that you all enjoy posting and have fun gaming.
March 2003
I played that game at my friends and I believe god made it! B) That game is really addictive, I think I'm going to rent it soon!

I bought it wedensday night I am loving every minute that I play it. I have only played through 6 hours of it and it is already one of my top fav games.
March 2003
*gets ready to duck* I think God made Dot.Hack, but as an afterthought he might have tossed out Xenosaga to a very cool person. I have played some of Xenosaga and I am beginning to wonder how much I get to actually play and how much I actually watch... Dot.Hack is the opposite... Sorry, but God made the Dot, but not the Saga

I didnt vote, because I dont think I can finally awnser the question before I beat the saga, or at least the first one in the series.
As far as God goes in XenoGEARS, no there is no god there is only The Will For Power!
But im to addicted to .hack//infection write now to play anything else, but ive gotten a little into xenosaga.
March 2003
Yes, Xenosaga has alot of cutscenes, which it needs to be able to clearly tell it's story. 75% of the first 6 hours are cutscenes and altogether there are about 20 hours worth with the longest being clocked at 45 minutes. Xenosaga is supposed to be an epic series and for that to happen, alot of story had to be told rather than played through. Still with about 35 hours of gameplay and 20 hours of cutscenes you have a 65 hour game and that's before you get engrossed in the mini-games, sidequests, and the leveling up for the fun of it. An awesome game of epic proportions is exactly what the PS2 needed and a 4 part episodic game by the name of .hack isn't that game. The .hack titles are excellent titles but if you add up the gameplay for the 4 titles then you get roughly 80 hours of gameplay but just remember that Xenosaga still has 5 more titles to come in it's series(with all being just as long if not longer).
Don't get me wrong, i am still a big .hack fan but i know what game i enjoy playing even moreso than that....Well, i hope that you all enjoy posting andh ave fun gaming.

The seating chart for the Impact Wrestling World Tour live event on September 17th, 2015 at the Kansas Expocentre in Topeka, KS reveals a ramp leading up to a six-sided ring instead of the traditional four-sided ring. This could be an early indication that the six-sided ring could be making a return to the company. You can check out the chart in the photo posted below.
