In 1949, Mr. Kihachiro Onitsuka began his athletic footwear company (Onitsuka Co., Ltd.) by manufacturing basketball shoes out of his living room in Kobe, Japan. He chose the name ASICS for his company in 1977, based on a famous Latin phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano," which, when translated, expresses the ancient ideal of "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body." Taking the acronym of this phrase, ASICS was founded on the belief that the best way to create a healthy and happy lifestyle is to promote total health and fitness. Today, ASICS offers a full line of performance-driven athletic shoes and technical active sports apparel and accessories dedicated to bringing harmony to the body and soul.
This entry-level model features a full-length Gum Rubber Outsole for excellent traction on the court. Rearfoot GEL® Cushioning System provides enhanced cushioning - while the combination synthetic leather and mesh upper provides breathability and comfort. A great value for the multi-court player.
Good shoes, I used them for vball, and they blend well with whatever I wear. As said above, they're a little wider, so I find myself cinching them pretty hard, but not a big deal.Published 1 day ago by Al

September 9, 2007
A local college student who was missing for a week was found Saturday.
Julian McCormick was apparently trapped in his upside-down Honda Civic at the bottom of a ravine. The 18-year-old somehow survived without food or water and managed to climb up to Powder Mill Road in Beltsville today.
He was found dehydrated and banged up, but officials say he'll be OK.
A missing person's report was filed last weekend for the Bowie State University student. Friends and family said they had not heard from him since he left campus on September 1st to pick up his girlfriend.
Leigh Ann Hess of Bowie was riding in a car at about 5 p.m. when she spotted McCormick lying by the road, bleeding from his head. McCormick was able to tell her his name and that he had been in an accident, but he didn't know how long he'd been there.
James McCormick is Julian's father. He says the family's prayers were answered.

Jul 16, 2012Ideal game for experienced and detail-oriented gamers. Requires effort to create and manage, but great support from the best modder community in the world, combined with great customer service and development support makes it all worth the effort. The game does not need a graphics engine because it is not a toy. This may turn off younger gamers, but so be it. Great for replays and fictional.
Jul 16, 2012I have played OOTP baseball since version 3. It gives me by far the most "bang for the buck" than any other computer/video game I've ever owned. If you are a baseball fan, do yourself a favor and at least give the demo a try.
Jul 16, 2012This game has endless replay value. The number of different ways it can be played is only limited by your imagination. The slick interface is more intuitive than ever. Fictional, historical, hybrid, "what if" -- the possibilities are endless! Best money you'll ever spend on a computer game!
Jul 16, 2012This is the best baseball simulation out on the market today , its up to date . it has something for everyone. i played baseball mogul for years till i found this game and baseball mogul just sucks in comparison to OOTP. . in ootp u have a lot more freedom to create ur type of game . baseball mogul is so limited everywhere . ootp is making strides every version and now even has is to where u can broadcast ur sim on ur website. u can use any of the thousands of mods out there for ootp or make ur own . if ur a big baseball guy u have to get ootp as their is no substitute for this game .i think everyone wants a graphics engine in ootp and there will be one but do u want them to get it right or half ass it and just throw something out there? i mean if u are gonna do it u do it right so i know ootp is doing the right thing and waiting to have the funds to hire a great guy to do the graphics engine . the price is great if u want the best game and besides that they always have like a 10 dollars off sale all the time so i mean if u buy it then most of the time ull get it for even a greater price . but really this game is the best baseball simulation money can buy hands down the best… Expand
Jul 16, 2012My favorite thing about this game is (1) the customization available, and (2) the support of the community. It's your game, and you can play it the way that you want to, and if you're looking for something in particular, you can find it on the user forums. It's not going to impress the video game crowd, but after growing up with Strat-o-Matic, APBA, Earl Weaver Baseball, and SherCo, it's a dream come true.… Expand
Jul 16, 2012You have to be awfully short-sighted to not only negatively review a game the quality of OOTP, but to give it a 0 rating (signifying that it has zero redeemable value). Gross overreaction like that provides no value whatsoever to those looking for usable insight into the game. It comes across as nothing but immature axe grinding.
OOTP does not provide a graphics engine, nor does it need it. Would it be a nice addition? Yes, but the lack of does not in any way diminish the quality of every other aspect it provides.… Expand
Jul 16, 2012OOTP 13 is a fantastic game. It's a great successor to the previous year's title and includes numerous additional features (association leagues is my favorite).
Jul 16, 2012This is the game I have been waiting for all my life! I can bring all my childhood favorites back and never let them go. This game is a gift from above.
Jul 16, 2012OOTP doesn't do everything I'd like it to do, but it does do most of what I would like it to do (e.g. the ability to create your own fictional worlds, industry-leading customizeability, challenging online leagues). And, except for maybe the Civilization franchise, I probably play and get more out of OOTP than any other video game. It's not there yet, but every year OOTP gets me a little bit closer to gaming Nirvana. Thanks, OOTP! :)… Expand
Jul 16, 2012The best baseball simulation on the market. Out of the Park Baseball gives you the flexibility to play the game how you want, from replaying history, replaying history, setting up your ideal fictional universe, or even creating a tournament of all-time great teams. A great community with useful mods, and a development team that cares is a big plus. My favorite new feature in version 13 is the random debut feature, which allows players to import into your universe randomly and adds to the already tremendous replay value.… Expand
Jul 16, 2012To experience simulated baseball that seems real there is no other game on the market. Not only is OOTPB the best in its genre, but it continues to improve in form function and performance every year. OOTPB can be intimidating to the new player but the resources and community available at http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/board/ will set anyone on the right track. If you have a question just ask.
What type of baseball do you like? Current day, check. Historical, check Fictional, check. Fantasy, check. International, check. Relegation league, check. Multiply the above with hundreds of online leagues and you have virtually no limits on the baseball universe you can create.
OOTP is a sports management sim. Graphics may be part of the game going forward. They are certainly not required to enjoy the game in its current skin. Be prepared for total immersion.… Expand
Jul 16, 2012If you want graphics, buy a PS3 or XBOX game. If you want to be immersed in a baseball world -- real or fiction -- in a way you can't find anywhere else, go with OOTP. The endless information in the game, the realistic GM experience and the countless possibilities for both fictional and real-life worlds make this the only text-sim baseball game you should play.
Jul 16, 2012If you are a true baseball fan then this is the game for you. OOTP gives you the ability to manage just about every aspect of your team. There are so many great features in this game that it is almost impossible to stop playing. There is no other game that I own that I play as much as OOTP!
Jul 16, 2012OOTP 13 is the best baseball simulator available. Period. It's complicated, it has a learning curve, it has none of the 3-D graphics that today's ADD children demand (see the two bad, and very sad and ignorant reviews), and if you want to know what it's like to be a GM, past or present, historical or fictional, this is the simulation you want. This is an intellectual pastime; you have to think, plan ahead, have a strategy and make good decisions in order to win consistently. The speed with which you can twitch a controller will not help you.… Expand
Jul 16, 2012OOTP 13 is easily the best baseball game I have ever played. The variety, flexibility and breadth of options in creating a league is fantastic. It provides me with endless hours of enjoyment. Also, the developer support is excellent, something the big game companies should strive for. The user community is very active and supportive and provides excellent mods, etc. The $39.95 is the best bargain I have ever paid for a game - the hourly cost to me is pennies.… Expand
Jul 16, 2012OOTP 13 is my first version of the Out of the Park games. I am a baseball fan and hoped to use the software to teach myself more about strategies and gain a deeper understanding of how the world of professional baseball works. In the time that I've owned OOTP 13, my knowledge of active rosters, 40 man rosters, waiving players, minor league call ups, and a whole host of other things that avid baseball fans are familiar with has increased tremendously. I can spend hours geeking out pouring over stats and looking for my next star player. The game doesn't feature much in the way of graphics but it's a niche genre and that doesn't detract from the game in any way.… Expand
OOTP 13 is the best management/simulation sports game ever created! There is nothing like it. The ability to create any baseball universe you want with nearly whatever rules you want is unparalled. It also has the most accurate baseball simulation numbers and you can even simulate any era of baseball (or make a new one with your league averages!) truly amazing piece of software that allows you to be a manager, GM, commisiner,and let's you dabble with your creative side ( make your own stories, teams, league setup) cannot recommend it enough... Go buy it now!… Collapse
Jul 16, 2012Anyone who even mentions the word graphics as a part of their review shouldn't be playing (or reviewing) the game. It is a text-based management sim. This is like going over to review Call of Duty and criticizing the game for being "unrealistic" because you don't die after being shot once, or criticizing Assassin's Creed because you can't jump out of buildings into haystacks in real life. As a text-based baseball simulation, this game is the gold standard. Simple as that.… Expand
Jul 16, 2012I've been playing OOTP since the beginning. If you're into graphics, look elsewhere. If you are into a believable sim that portraits the game of baseball look no further. 10 out of 10
Jul 16, 2012When I purchased OOTP 2007 years ago I realized that baseball can be fun. Five versions later the feeling is always the same, best investissement I've ever done in a computer game. No game give me that much enjoyment, not a single day I don't start it to manage my highly missed Expos.
Jul 16, 2012Anyone bashing the game for a lack of graphics is obviously either 12 or a button masher-type gamer. Enjoy your The Show video games with their snazzy graphics, horrendously terrible simulation stats and minimal year to year updates. I'll take my OOTP. If you want a challenge as a manager or general manager and are detail-oriented, this game is absolutely the one for you.
Jul 17, 2012I have been playing OOTP baseball since version 6, approximately 8 years now. I have played many baseball games through the years but none come close to the pure fun and thorough enjoyment as OOTP baseball. OOTP does not do everything but with each new release it comes closer to being the best baseball game ever. Can you simulate what its like managing the likes of Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Ted Williams, Nolan Ryan, Ozzie Smith etc. with other traditional baseball games? No, but with OOTP you can. Combine that with the greatest modders, customer support and the greatest development team and what do you get? Simply the most ideal baseball game that your money can buy. Anyone who bashes this splendid game must be in love with video games that have the worst simulation stats, yearly updates as well as the worst customer and development support. You can have that. I'll very gladly take OOTP any day, any year. But if you want a far more greater challenge, then OOTP baseball is the only way to go. Hands down.… Expand
Jul 16, 2012This game has grown leaps and bounds since the original ootp was releases many years ago. Verizon 13 has a brand new interface, which makes everything only a click or two away. IMO, the game doesn't need fancy graphics because the simulation engine is excellent and mods like real logos, uniforms, and ballparks bring the game to life - using facegen, as players change teams, so do their uniforms. I've already played this version more than v12 and that's saying alot as I've spend days on end playing just one more game. If you're a stat head or just someone who loves the game of baseball, you owe it to yourself to see the endless possibilities that can be created with ootp.. play the game the way YOU want to play.… Expand
Jul 16, 2012The perfect sim to recreate history according to my rules. I can take as long as I want to mark my idea on the history of Base Ball from 1871 to the present
Jun 23, 2012Same old tired graphics as the years before. Can't believe it's 2012 and we're still reading endless lines of text. At least now when I need my sports simulation fix I can fire up Football Manager and at least visualize the outcome of the game.
Jul 17, 2012I've played many board and computer baseball games over the years and, in my opinion, this is the very best. Replay historical seasons or draft players from different eras, create and immerse yourself in fictional baseball worlds, the possibilities for customisation are terrific and there is a great community of OOTP players and modders with a lively and helpful forum.wonderful value for money.
Jun 23, 2012Have to agree with Helm123 after so many years of the same old crap you'd think he'd up the graphics of the game to at least something like MicroLeague Baseball animations. I'm sick of READING text myself. I want to see more than just a stupid softball roll out into the field and it's not even accurate of what the text says happen. My money is going to Baseball Mogul 2013 because at least it has some animations and you get a little of the feeling of being there. APBA baseball was fun in its day because it has BROADCASTING and that would be an improvement to this game as well. Take it from me it's just not worth $39.95 every year just to get an upgrade to the HTML performance and a new lineup card. He's just milking the donkey now and you also and you're just not getting $39.95 worth if you have a lesser year version to at least 2007.… Expand
Jul 18, 2012This is a text based sim that focuses on the management aspects of running a team and the stats of baseball, not a game for those looking to play with today's level of HD graphics like MLB: The Show. The amazing thing about OOTP is the unlimited customizability. You can play any season of MLB's past. You can create a fictional league with 80 teams. You can play with historical player randomly debutting through the history of the league. When I say your options are unlimited, I mean it.… Expand
Jul 18, 2012I've played OOTP for 8 years and no other sports simulation even comes close to the depth and detail that OOTP13 offers for Baseball fans. Whatever you like to play whether it be Historical, Fictional or real MLB rosters OOTP13 fits the bill! Do yourself a favor and BUY OOTP13 right now! The best bang for your buck!!!!
Jul 18, 2012I gave the game a 9/10, but this game is not for everyone because it is a management SIMULATOR. If you lack imagination, can't read, or have a short attention span this game probably isn't for you. If you truly want to experience and be immersed in the heartbreak and the exhilaration that comes from America's Pastime, OOTP is for you. And that's not even mentioning the great mods, online leagues, and active community that take the enjoyment to the next level. My favorite baseball game.… Expand
Jul 19, 2012Great game. Responsive developers. Rich selection of mods from an outstanding and active user community. Nearly unlimited customization possibilities. Not liking this game because it doesn't have PS3 graphics is akin to not liking the movie "Gladiator" because there were no light sabres.
Jul 18, 201210/10. Not much more to say. Like baseball? or even just like the idea of taking control of your own sports team? Or even creating your own league and watching it grow and expand into the future. This has has alot to offer.
For people being negative about 'no graphics engine'. Please take a second to view the game website and realise that this is a TEXT-BASED sports sim.
Jul 18, 2012I'm a gamer and a huge sports management gamer. Of all the games I have played through out the years OOTP is the one I play everyday. You can play historical, current MLB, fictional, fast sim or play out every game. The mods made by the forum are awesome as well as the fact the developer is active on the board.
Jul 21, 2012For a baseball game having the same hold as Football manager then this game is for you. So many options to tailor the game to your likes and a very helpful forum and producer for help and advice. So simple to get into but with long term playability. Many hours can be lost trying to win the next game or sign that star player you need for your franchise to get to the top.
Jul 27, 2012This simulation is very-well developed. It accurately reflects baseball of any era from the 1800's to complete and accurate rosters as of 2012. If you want a game where you are the CEO i.e. GM then this is the game for you. No, the graphics and sound are not like a first-person shooter or something but they are very good for what they are needed for. This isn't some glitz shooter for a dumbace. You are smart? You will like. This is a game about building a contender through the draft, free-agency, and trades. Controlling ticket prices etc. It is a very deep simulation and has excellent online leagues against human opponents. Easily the best game in the genre.… Expand
Jul 27, 2012My favorite baseball game ever! I really enjoy the thinking and all the baseball "stuff." I would play all day if I could. I also really like the online leagues.
Sep 4, 2012OOTP 13 is the first baseball sim I've been able to seriously get into. I have yet to see any set of stats or results generated from it that has looked unrealistic to me. Between the historical players and teams, league customization, and career modes, you've got a lot of different options on how to play the game.
One thing that really surprised me was the dynamic nature of the leagues. In the three seasons that I've been working my way up the minor league system as a manager, not only did the planned move of the Astros to the AL West happen, but the Pirates wound up moving to Charlotte, and Major League expansion teams were added in Jacksonville and Indianapolis. It makes an ongoing seasonal campaign more interesting when there's other stuff going on that's completely unrelated to anything you're doing.
I look forward to being able to manage the Rays at the Major League level at some point... though they might be in Des Moines by then. :)… Expand
Jul 27, 2012The best baseball simulation/management game out there. Very addicting game that allows you to take control of your favorite team or create your own league.
Jul 28, 2012Knocking the game for the graphics is wrong. It 's not meant to be a graphics or arcade game. It's meant to have all the nuances and subleties of baseball. And it succeeds there. Where it can be knocked is for the lack of technical support and problems that go unanswered. Suggestions, encouraged by the developer, seem to go unnoticed. Older versions are better than the newer ones. The game can give hours upon hours upon hours of enjoyment but then ends with an unexpected crash or glitch which makes you start over making it seem like going back to 0000 in an arcade game. The details, statistical realism and format make it a great game when it runs right, but the problems really detract and are frustrating. I give it an 8 barely.… Expand
Jul 29, 2012I really got hooked on this sports management situation - and I am not a baseball fan by far. The information is presented in a very accessible way (compared to the loads of data you face) and the ability to completely build your own fantasy league, import modded logos and uniforms brings an addiction level that is rarely reached these days. For me it's on par with Civ: Just one more ball game.
No, it doesn't have NBA 2K12 or MLB: The Show like graphics, but it doesn't need to. It's not what this game is about. And who has ever blamed Minecraft for being graphically deficient?
Try this game for a little while and it will really grow on you!… Expand
Aug 1, 2012This is a great game for people who are interested in a extremely in depth management sports simulation. This is NOT for anyone who just wants to play through a game of baseball like a console sports game. If you love in depth management of stats, lineups, financials, minor league's, drafts, and much more; this is the game for you!
Mar 11, 2013I would give this game a 10 but still think there is room for improvement and don't want them to get lazy like EA Sports. First off, this is reviewed as a simulation game, not as a live action sports game. If you are looking for an EA sports type game, stop reading now. Sure it would be great if a company like OOTP Developments could work with EA or Activision and put together the ultimate sports sim, the numbers/simulation depth of OOTP with the live action of the big developers, but I don't see that happening anytime soon. OOTP is a great game on its own though, especially if you want to recreate history and the mod community is pretty large, they don't have all the rights but you can easily download MLB uniforms and logos from the mod community, along with player images (facegen) that really made the game graphically appealing. This is the ultimate GM game for a baseball fan, take over the Cubs in the 80s and actually build a world series team. take over the Brooklyn Dodgers and stop them from moving to Los Angeles. Take over Boston in the 20s and stop the trade of the greatest player ever to the hated Yankees. Create custom baseball cards (also mods for that) and vote for yourself who should win end of season awards and who should be in the Hall of Fame. Did someone get a career ending injury and you want to change it, a few quick clicks and he is back in the game. did someone retire too soon or is playing too long, its easy to force retirements and make players come out of retirement. You can basically do anything you want in this game, very addicting.… Expand

Aug 15, 2012Overall, Out of the Park '13 made a few improvements over its predecessor, but the meat of the game is pretty much the same game, which is actually a good thing. If you already have Out of the Park '12, $39.99 might be too much for a few visual and AI improvements. If you don't have a prior OOTP game, OOTP13, much like last year's game, is an excellent baseball management simulator.
Aug 12, 2012OotP's baseball smarts may be undisputed, but it struggles to capture the passion and sporting flair of the infield. [Sept 2012, p.106]
Jul 16, 2012OOTP 13 does exactly what it sets out to do-it provides the hardcore fan with the most detailed front office sim experience possible. Once I got into the ebb and flow of managing my team, it was sheer baseball nerd nirvana, and there's a lot of value in that.

Lake View
House | 5 bedrooms | sleeps 10
|Key Info
This House/Villa has only just become available for rent as it was built for our family to visit and stay there as my parents live within 5 minutes from the property. But due to work commitment we are unable to get over as much as we would like so we have decided to rent the house and let others share the magic moments of Florida and watch the evening sunset accross the lake. We have 3 children so the location and layout was based around them so we were never too far away from the main attractions. The local food and shopping areas are second to none with a large cinema complex only 5 minutes away and access to the main Highway only a couple of minutes from the house.
This very spacious New 5 bedroom house benefits from its own private pool, with a shallow end perfect for the children. Leading from the living room is a spacious pool area complete with B-B-Q and a stunning lake view. Furnished with a table and chairs both inside and out so you can watch the evening sunset.

Hypnotized by Ayn Rand and Reaganomics, Republicans Have Completely Lost Touch with Economic Reality
Photo Credit: Flickr
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
On September 9th, when Congress returns from its summer vacation, negotiations will begin on a new Federal budget and a U.S. debt limit increase. As a quid pro quo Republicans will demand restrictions on Obamacare. Once again, this raises the specter of the GOP pushing the government into default. Why don't Republicans understand that's a terrible idea that would crater the economy?
Once upon a time, the GOP stood for responsible economic policy. I grew up in a middle-class family in Southern California, where my father and grandfather ran a small business. They were Republicans, as were most of the people we knew. In those days, the GOP attracted the middle class because it was the Party of common sense: it understood business and the economy.
Over the ensuing years the Republican Party abandoned the middle class and become the party of the wealthy -- the one percent. In the '80s, Republicans fell under the spell of Reaganomics. Conservative economists infused American political discourse with three malignant notions: helping the rich get richer would inevitably help everyone else; markets were inherently self correcting; and, "government is not the solution to our problems; government is the problem." Reagan's ideology produced deregulation, tax cuts for the rich and powerful, and monopoly capitalism. It resulted in unprecedented income inequality. The American ethos changed from "we're in this together" ("I am my brother's keeper") to "you are on your own."
These changes might not factor in the latest crisis if Senators and Representatives understood that the American economy requires a healthy middle class. But these days the average member of Congress is more likely to have had a prior occupation as a lawyer than as a business person. Furthermore 78 percent of Congress people have no academic background in business or economics.
As a consequence, the Republican leadership doesn't understand the American economy; they're living in a dream world where shutting down the government doesn't impact middle-class Americans. Consider the backgrounds of the GOP leaders: In the Senate, Mitch McConnell, the Republican majority leader, is a lawyer, as is his second in command, John Cornyn. The Republican policy committee chair is Wyoming Senator John Barrasso, an orthopedic surgeon. The minority chair of the Senate Finance Committee is Orrin Hatch, a lawyer.
In the House of Representative Speaker John Boehner does have a business background. However, his second in command, House majority leader Eric Cantor, is a lawyer who has worked in his family's real estate development business.
Paul Ryan, the chairman of the House Budget Committee, directs most Republican economic policy. Ryan doesn't have much of a business background -- he's spent his adult life in politics -- but he does have an undergraduate degree in economics. What appeals to contemporary Republicans is Ryan's devotion to reactionary novelist Ayn Rand. A New Yorker profile observed that Congressman Ryan often mentions Rand: "The reason I got involved in public service, by and large, if I had to credit one thinker, one person, it would be Ayn Rand." In 2009, Ryan said, "what's unique about what's happening today in government, in the world, in America, is that it's as if we're living in an Ayn Rand novel right now. I think Ayn Rand did the best job of anybody to build a moral case of capitalism, and that morality of capitalism is under assault."
Paul Ryan has reshaped the contemporary Republican ideology by layering Rand's philosophy on top of Reaganomics. Ayn Rand believed in Objectivism: "The concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute." Ayn Rand saw a limited role for government, only the military, police, and judiciary. As a consequence, Paul Ryan and Rand's many other Republican disciples want to severely cut government spending and eliminate the social safety net. (The Paul Ryan budget attacks the core components of the safety net: Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Food Stamps, and affordable health care.) That's why the GOP leadership is not worried by the prospect of a government shutdown or default. They believe it will produce less government.

ImmunoCellular Therapeutics Announces Recommendation of Data Monitoring Committee to Continue ICT-107 Phase II Trial Following Interim Analysis
ImmunoCellular Therapeutics Announces Recommendation of Data Monitoring Committee to Continue ICT-107 Phase II Trial Following Interim Analysis
Study Completion Anticipated by Year-End 2013
ImmunoCellular Therapeutics, Ltd. ("ImmunoCellular") (NYSE MKT: IMUC) announced that the Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) has completed a pre-specified interim analysis of the ICT-107 phase II clinical trial in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma and recommended that the company continue the trial to completion.
The trial design for the ICT-107 study provides for the interim analysis to be conducted by the independent DMC after 32 events (patient deaths) are reached. ImmunoCellular remains blinded to the actual results and details of the interim analysis and any patient data pertaining to the ongoing trial. No additional interim analyses are planned. The Company anticipates that the phase II trial should be completed by the end of 2013.
"We are pleased with the outcome of the DMC's interim analysis and look forward to completing the ongoing phase II trial of ICT-107," said Andrew Gengos, ImmunoCellular Chief Executive Officer. "We have been pleased with the rate of enrollment and appreciate the diligence of the DMC, our trial site collaborators, and our dedicated clinical team in achieving this important milestone in our Company's progress. The results of this trial will serve as the basis for determining the next clinical and regulatory steps in the development of what we believe is a promising new approach to treating this highly lethal cancer."
The ICT-107 phase II trial is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of ICT-107, a 6-antigen dendritic cell vaccine targeting glioblastoma tumor and cancer stem cell antigens, as a potential treatment for patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. The phase II trial has been fully enrolled, and a total of 124 patients have been randomized at 25 clinical trial sites in the US. The trial utilizes a one-third, two thirds design: one third of the patients are treated with placebo, which is their own dendritic cells not exposed to antigen, and the treatment arm includes two thirds or about 80 patients who receive the ICT-107 vaccine. The regimen is four induction doses after radiation and chemotherapy, and then maintenance doses until the patient relapses. The primary endpoint of the trial is overall survival (OS). Secondary endpoints include progression-free survival (PFS), OS and PFS at various time intervals, immune response (T cells) and safety.
About ImmunoCellular Therapeutics, Ltd.
ImmunoCellular Therapeutics, Ltd. is a Los Angeles-based clinical-stage company that is developing immune-based therapies for the treatment of brain and other cancers. ImmunoCellular is conducting a phase II trial of its lead product candidate, ICT-107, a dendritic cell-based vaccine targeting multiple tumor-associated antigens for glioblastoma. ImmunoCellular's pipeline also includes ICT-121, a dendritic cell vaccine targeting CD133, and ICT-140, a dendritic cell vaccine targeting ovarian cancer antigens and cancer stem cells. To learn more about ImmunoCellular, please visit www.imuc.com.
Forward-Looking Statements for ImmunoCellular Therapeutics
This press release contains certain forward-looking statements that are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the risk that ICT-107 can be further successfully developed or commercialized or that the interim results are indicative of potentially favorable outcome from the study. Additional risks and uncertainties are described in IMUC's most recently filed quarterly report on Form 10-Q and annual report on Form 10-K. Except as permitted by law, IMUC undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Is This the Plot of the 'Fantastic Four' Reboot?
A purported plot summary for director Josh Trank's franchise reboot details Doom's motives, and the origins of the Fantastic Four's powers Updated!
A purported plot summary for director Josh Trank's franchise reboot details Doom's motives, and the origins of the Fantastic Four's powers Updated!
The indie drama is shaping up to be the next project from the Amazing Spider-Man director.
"I already know that people hate me for the fact that I'm playing Reed Richards and that we're ruining their franchise," the actor concedes.
The future Mr. Fantastic compares his foursome to the cast of the 2005 feature film, saying this reboot is "different in every way."
Fantastic Four actress Kate Mara has finished filming her role in director Josh Trank's franchise reboot.
Although director Josh Trank's franchise reboot isn't listed on Fox's convention schedule, a report insists the cast will show up in Hall H.
Writer Simon Kinberg expects the film's tone of the Fox reboot to fall "somewhere on the spectrum between Spider-Man and Chronicle."
Miles Teller explains that Josh Trank's Fantastic Four will be very grounded and showcase "very human people."
The young actors, already attached to Fox's Fantastic Four reboot, are also set to reteam with their That Awkward Moment director.
As screen tests begin for director Josh Trank's film, a contender emerges for the role of Ben Grimm: Cemetery Junction star Christian Cooke.
With the rewrite complete, Josh Trank's franchise reboot is expected to test such actors as Kit Harington, Richard Madden and Saoirse Ronan, but Michael B. Jordan already may be set for Human Torch role.
The Spectacular Now actor reveals he's in the running for the role of Reed Richards in Fox's Fantastic Four reboot.

Jeff Flagg hit a final-match drive of 365 yards to beat runner-up Jeff Crittenden by just 13 inches. The event was held on the range of the resort and a special Golf Stadium was created for fans. A large crowd in the stands and in standing-room-only overflow areas watched as the Las Vegas 8 took it deep into the night sky in windy conditions. Flagg won a championship belt and $250,000 as he became the Longest Golfer on Earth for 2014. -- By Brian Hurlburt.

This will be our family's first cruise adventure. I went on a cruise as a teenager some 20 years ago. Having said this, i don't have huge, over the top expecatations, just looking forward to a new experience. We are a family of five, with 11, 9, 7 year old kids. Last overseas adventure was to Costa Rica.
I am interested in anybody's past experiences. I realize it is one of NCL's older vessels. We will have two connecting rooms with windows. The deal was too good to pass up. Fodorites have such valuable opinions... thanks for sharing.
--does the Sun have the bowling alley?
--has anybody had experience with the kids' corner.
--are there a lot of activities on board or mainly swimming, eating, basketball court?
--excursions--worth it? one that is a MUST DO?
--how is the food? Is the free style really as comfortable as they market it.?
Anything else?--add it in

I have done NCL in the past enjoy their freestyle concept.
Have done western Carib on the Legend

Here is the links for NCL Sun.
However, I didn't cruise on the SUN but went on the SKY. I liked it very well. There are ton of activities on board that you and the kids can enjoy. Eat anytime, anywhere is always great options when you have a little ones. But soft drinks cost $6 a day per person as far as I remember.

I recently returned from a New Orleans to the western Carribean on NCL and had a great time. My daughter's first experience with the kids' corner was when she was 12, and she loved it.
Keep in mind that there are only 2 "freestyle" dining rooms that don't charge extra. Although I cruised on the Spirit, I've cruised on other NCL ships, and there are more specialty restaurants that charge an extra $20 or so per person. My family (parents who are 66 and 70, my teenage daughter, and my middle-aged self) found the food in the dining rooms good.
Shore excursions will depend on what your family likes to do together and what is offered at each port. Booking through the ship will be more expensive and excursions more crowded, but you will have an easier time getting your money back if the excursion in cancelled than you might if you book yourself.
The two connecting rooms are very convenient. Put yourself and your spouse in one room with the two twin beds pushed together, and the three kids in the adjoining room, 2 in the twin beds pushed against the wall, one on the bunk.
For some reason, NCL often gets poor reviews, but I've cruised with them 3 times and would cruise with them again.

as I hit the submit button, I saw kj's comment about the sodas....unless your kids each drink a LOT of soda, bypass the soda cards. There is always water, iced tea, and I believe lemonade available at no cost in the buffet area.

Change is scary, especially when it involves your children. There's a first time for just about everything, but as many seasoned parents will note, they wish that some of these "first times" could be postponed until a later date!
As children's bodies change and mature, hormones kick in, and social pressures abound, our kids tend to have one thing in common — wanting to stretch the previously safe, agreed-upon boundaries and add all kinds of activities to their repertoire of desires and needs. Your fifth-grader probably loves to shop with you at the mall, but your 16-year-old would most likely prefer to go with her friends. Family movies were cool when your son was younger, but now as a ninth-grader he's pleading to be dropped off, of course without your scoping out the situation, and to link up with his buddies at the show.
What's a parent to do? Well, start with trying to be smart by picking your battles, listen to your child to understand where he or she is coming from, be ready to grow the rules with the kid and know what your limits are and stick to them. Also, discuss with your child how trustworthiness and usage of common sense are extremely important attributes when considering the independence-seeking that he or she is engaged in. I've found with my own two kids, as well as with many of the families that I work with in my clinical practice, that compromise and consistency are key parental behaviors. Now, let's take a look at some of the most common, and perhaps anxiety-producing, firsts for our kids:
Going to the mall or movies without you
Okay, your son or daughter has asked to go to either the mall or movies, and of course it's without you tagging along. Often children as young as 12 or 13 ask for this privilege as they see many of their peers dropped off and picked up by their folks without Mom or Dad participating. The primary focus should be upon safety. Face it, your kid really doesn't need you sitting next to him at the movies — you probably do though, as you might miss the bonding experience, actually want to see the show, or are afraid of either someone hurting your child or the kid leaving the movie to go off with his friends. Often parents feel better about the movie or mall trip with the group when these occur during the afternoon or early evening, and only allow night outings when the child is in high school.
When considering these outings, make sure that your kid is running with the pack when allowed at the movies or mall without you. There is safety in numbers but your child needs to promise (and stick to his word) to stay with the group and to not take off on his own to visit another store or to leave the movie theater. Trust is essential, and if your kid has a history of impulsive or irresponsible behavior, you might want to say no to such requests until he has proven himself to be dependable. If it makes you feel better, have him or her carry a cell phone, with the rule that they must answer it when you call. And, be sure that he's aware of when and where he'll be picked up and stress that he needs to be on time so that you're not worried. If another parent is doing the driving, double check that your child will be brought home at the expected time.

How Your School Can Get Involved In Food Revolution Day!Tue 15 May 2012
Story by The Food Revolution Day Team
Food Revolution Day is all raising awareness for the need to bring back food education, and schools are one of the main places that food education ought to be taught. The younger we start educating children on food and nutrition, the better. Not only does this set kids up with the life skills needed to look after themselves and their families later on through providing fresh, wholesome, nutritious meals, but it�s also much easier to prevent obesity at a young age than reverse it later.
No matter what constraints your school faces and whether you are happy with the food system or not, Food Revolution Day provides an opportunity to start the conversation in your school and get students, teachers and parents talking about real food!
Here are some ideas for what you can do to celebrate Food Revolution Day in your school!
� Show your support for food education!
Signing our pledge to bring back food education is a really easy way to take a stand for real food and better food education for all. With just a few clicks you can help the Food Revolution and show a global figure of all those who support bringing back food education! So share this link with all your students, teachers, school administrators and parents. How many people can you get to join you in standing up for real food?
� Host an educational assembly or talk
Take a few minutes in assembly or in the classroom to talk about the Food Revolution and the choices we make when it comes to food. Demonstrate how much sugar is in flavored milk, show some Food Revolution videos, talk about food labels and the importance of homemade from scratch meals and get your students thinking! You could even ask some experts in to share their knowledge.
� Pledge to make a difference for one day
Whether it�s encouraging students to choose the white milk over the chocolate milk, or to choose the salad bar over the fries, why not encourage healthier choices on Food Revolution Day. Even better take these items off the menu for the day! Making changes is all about taking small steps, so use Food Revolution Day to make the first step in your school.
� Have A Rainbow Day!
Why not make one day a rainbow day and encourage students to try a variety of colors of fruits and vegetables from the salad bar, explaining that different fruits and vegetables provide different nutritional goodness. Chef Ann Cooper is running lots of Rainbow Days in Boulder CO in the lead up to Food Revolution Day.
� Open the conversation
Food Revolution Day provides an opportunity to start talking about real food and local food issues so why not use it as a chance to connect with other parents, the PTA, health and wellness committee and school officials to open the conversation on school food. The proposed standards for competitive foods will be released within the next few weeks, so take a look at what snacks and beverages are currently available outside of the lunch program (at vending machines, schools stores, and a la carte cafeteria lines) and what you think ought to change.
We�ve created a Food Revolution Day toolkit for starting a Food Revolution in your school which can be downloaded for free from here.
If your hosting an event at school there�s still time to add it to the map and join the global movement (you can add your school event as a private event by selecting the dinner party option)!

Hey BikeShopGirl,
Is that Spearfish2 your regular ride? How do you like it? I'm thinking about getting one but trying to decide between that and a Rocky Mountain Element 930.
If you have a minute I'd really like to hear what you think about the Spearfish specifically and Salsa bikes in general. It's really hard to get a decent (unbiased) opinion out there when shop folks are trying to sell you what they have on their floor.

Election 2014: City Council Still Doesn't Look Like the City
Once again, Toronto's representatives don't reflect the population that elected them.
Partly Cloudy0°/-2°
Partly Cloudy-1°/-1°
Chance of Snow3°/4°
Once again, Toronto's representatives don't reflect the population that elected them.
Even if an LRT-friendly mayor is elected, Scarborough councillors aim to scrap the 13-kilometre route.
Six candidates write about inequality, investing in youth, and honouring the memories of those killed in Etobicoke and Regent Park on Monday.
It's not just the route and planning that creates problems for SmartTrack—paying for it is a big issue as well.
John Tory and Doug Ford are committed to a subway; Olivia Chow wants to stick with the original LRT. We've got some interactive charts, to help you figure out how much each one costs.
Snapshots of candidates running for city council in 2014.
Trade group's new discussion paper urges a more reasonable, de-politicized approach to transit planning.
Newly released documents show that the mayor was trying to help Ford family business client Apollo Health and Beauty Care acquire new property.
TTC CEO Andy Byford and city manager Joe Pennachetti are going over council's head and taking their proposal directly to the province and the feds.
Here's what city council will be debating at this month's meeting—the last of the current term.
The mayor voted against raising fees on companies participating in a City wastewater treatment program—including Deco.
The councillor believes the anticipated $20–30 ticket price is unaffordable and unfair.
Blair will drop legal action now that Ford has offered written apology for comments linking the chief to alleged information leak.
Councillor retracts his statements about alleged information leaks from the police after Blair files defamation notice against him.
The Beaches-East York representative is prepared to take her fight for physical barriers to city council.
For the Toronto Police Service to adapt to changing needs, Mukherjee says it will need to adopt a change in leadership.
The mayor's family company has so many clients, it seems, that declaring conflicts of interest would just be impracticable.
Internal document reveals that RR Donnelley has indeed subcontracted out work to Deco Labels.
