Copyright, Native American Press, 2001 Founded in 1988 Volume 13 Issue 50 November 9, 2001 Judge to decide whether to hear assault case against former Mille Lacs police sergeant By JeffArmstrong In what may be a precedent-setting case. Mille Lacs County district judge Steven Ruble will decide by tlie end of tlie year whether diere is adequate e\idence to proceed with criminal assault cliarges against former Mille Lacs Tribal Police sergeant Marc Gabiger. Dismissed from his duties as a tribal officer last summer. Gabiger faces fifth degree assault and disorderly conduct cliarges for repeatedly choking and punching a juvenile assault suspect in his custody on Feb. 11 of this year. The case is being prosecuted by Sheibume County Attorney Walter Kaminsky. to whom it was referred by tlie Mille Lacs County Attorney to avoid any conflict-of-interest. According to official reports of the incident. Gabiger was transporting 17-year-old Roland Smith to tlie Mille Lacs County jail with Gabiger's young son accomipanying him in tlie front seat. Tlie hand cuffed Smith reacted in a veibally aggressive manner, prompting Gabiger to stop tlie vehicle, reach through tlie window and grab Smith by die neck in a chokehold. When Smith kicked a shoe in Gabiger's direction during booking and allegedly attempted to strike tlie officer according to a prosecution memorandum, Gabiger"did not wait for tlie jailers to cross die small room to help him. Instead, he punched RE.S. in tlie face, in an attempt to render RES. unconscious. After this struggle, tlie jailers subdued R.E.S. RE.S. laid on die floor face-down widi jailers laying on top of him and die Defendant holding his amis. But still die Defendant struck RE.S. several more times." According to tlie criminal complaint against Gabiger. die incident left die youth "bloody, bruised [andl w ith swollen nose and lips." At an Aug. 24 evidentiary hearing. Gabiger sought dismissal ofthe cliaiges widiout a hearing on die grounds diat lie was acting reasonably and within die scope of his audiority as an officer hi a subsequent legal brief, Gabiger argued uiat courts should give more latitude for die use of force to police officers cliarged widi criminal violations. "|D|uc lo die potential of criminal sanctions instead of civil liability, greater deference should be allow (sic) to die reasonableness of die Defendant's use of force," die brief states. In his responding brief, Kaminsky argued diat Gabiger's conduct must be assessed by a jury, likening die case to die Rodney King verdict. He maintained dial federal standards for evidence in civil and criminal civil rights complaints against police are identical. "Tlie question of whedier die Defendant used reasonable or excessive force onFcbmary 11. 2001, cannot be resolved at this stage." Kaminsky wrote.

A fonner housing maintenance employee. Gan McFatridge says die charges of theft and receiving stolen property are factually baseless and politically-motivated. McFatridge cliarged diat die Fond du Lac RBC specifically approved proceeding on die state criminal cliarges by a 3-1 vote, a claim whose source he attributes to no less than chairman Robert Peacock. McFatridge maintains diat he began using the trailer regularly to haul hay for his horse during die time he woriced for housing. Tlie Anishinaabe man says he was laid off in the fall of last year. but was waiting until he could fix a light on the trailer before returning it. On Jan. 17. McFatridge said. Fond du Lac and Cloquet police officers took the trailer from his residence while he was at work, leaving a message widi McFatridge's girlfriend for mm to call die Cloquet police department. "I didn't bodier to call. They knew I had the trailer, and they came and got it. I thought diat was die end of it." said McFatridge. More than diree weeks later, on Feb. 9. McFatridge was notified diat he was cliarged widi receiving stolen property. The criminal complaint alleges diat die trader was "stolen sometime diis fall from die housing building." McFatridge maintains diat the trailer could not have been reported stolen at die time, because his son had been stopped by tribal police in November and cited for not hooking up die tail- lights. "If it was stolen in the fall, how come diey didn't have it reported stolen? If it was reported stolen they would have taken it from my THEFT to page 6 IHB board reinstates terminated doctors, lab supervisor, decides to hire outside consultant to make "internal assessment" by Clara NiiSka In a Monday, November 5th meeting opened widi a tobacco ceremony, the Minneapolis Urban Indian Healdi Board (IHB) began what board member Avis Poupart described as a healing process, "to begin anew" and restore hannony. The board meeting was attended by a number of clinic staff, as well as by Indian Healdi Service (IHS) personnel including Bemidji area director Dr. Kaddeen Annette, and by Dr. Helen Stone, who flew in from Chicago. For two hours on Monday evening, die Minneapolis board members listened to the concerns of clinic staff and discussed how to begin addressing the clinic's problems impartially and fairly. Tlie board then voted 9:0 widi one abstention to reinstate tenni- nated medical providers Dr. Lydia Caros, Dr. Lori Benaszak, and lab director Judy Day. Tlie board's decision to reinstate die two doctors and die lab director was met widi applause from clinic staff attending the meeting. Tlie board then went into closed session to discuss the hiring of an interim executive director. Tlie board intends tliat die interim executive director shall IHB Lab Director Judy Day adcressed the IHB Board at a public meeting on the evening of Monday, November 9h. Others attending the IHB board meeting included staff members and Indian Health Service officials. Ms. Day was fired on Friday in conjunction with the clinic unrest following the suspension of Dr. Lyda Caros, then called back to work temporarily on Monday at the request of three Board members: Avis Poupart, Alberta Van Wert, and Stephanie Autumn. As Ms. Autumn explained at the meeting, the clinic lab was not in compliance with regulations without a lab director, and the three board members who asked Ms. Day to return were prepared to pay her wages if their actions had not been subsequently approved by the Board of Directors. When Ms. Day addressed the Board on Monday night she did not know, as she put it, "whether I have a job or not" Later that evening, Judy Day was reinstated, along with Doctors Lyda Caros and Lori Banaszak, by an 9:1 vote of the Board of Directors. conduct an internal review during die thirty-day suspension of IHB executive director Yvonne Bushyhead. who had been suspended by a 5:4 board vote die previous Friday. As one board member put it during die November 5* meeting, die interim director would "gather diat infonnation ... will be interviewing die staff." detennining "what led up to the problems" in the first place. In a later telephone interview, board cliair Kim Mammedaty explained to Press/ ON mat die board is hoping tliat die internal review process will enable the board "to find some answers and arrive at a more complete picture of what is hap pening" at die IHB clinic, so diat the problems diere can be addressed effectively. Press/ON also contacted Yvonne Bushyhead, who stated diat she preferred not to comment at diis time. The Unban Indian Health Board Clinic, at 1315 E. 24th Street in die heart ofthe Phillips neighborhood in soutii Minneapolis, has been beset widi problems for years. Yvonne Bushyhead was hired to repair the damage left by die administration of Noreen Smitii. who left amid longstanding allegations of financial and odier mismanagement. Despite Bushyhead's efforts, problems at the clinic continued to fester, dien were precipitated into crisis when the clinic's medical director. Dr. Lydia Caros. was suspended after writing an open letter to the executive director. Dr. Caros's letter, published in full on page 4 of tins issue, was described by clinic director Carol Bell as an "inappropriate sharing of confidential infonnation with the entire staff." On October 22 Bell infonned Caros. in a courier- delivered letter, diat she would be suspended for one week.

I recently started using itunes match to uprade lots of my old 128Kbit mp3s.
Streaming all other kind of files incl. mkv to my Samsung UE55C87xx has never been a problem since Twonky 6.0.38 except for embedded subtitles.
With the the lack of support for mkv's on samsung tvs running older twonky versions I had to stream mkvs stored on my nas trough PSM on my pc (realtime-transcode if necessary) to my PS3 ending up on my TV causing some serious power consumption for simply watching a movie or listen to music.
My goal is basicly just using twonkyserver running on the NAS and my TV as only client but m4a somehow refuse to stream but according to the specs the TV supports AAC.
Streaming m4a directly to my ps3 did work.
Has anyone experience streaming m4a to a Samsung DLNA-certified device or any suggestions how to get it work?
Help is really appreciated and sorry for my bad english

Jawaharlal Nehru
Article Free PassStruggle for Indian independence
After his father's death in 1931, Jawaharlal moved into the inner councils of the Congress Party and became closer to Gandhi. Although Gandhi did not officially designate Nehru his political heir until 1942, the country as early as the mid-1930s saw in Nehru the natural successor to Gandhi. The Gandhi-Irwin pact of March 1931, signed between Gandhi and the British viceroy, Lord Irwin (later Lord Halifax), signalized a truce between the two principal protagonists in India. It climaxed one of Gandhi's more effective civil disobedience movements, launched the year before, in the course of which Nehru had been arrested.
Hopes that the Gandhi-Irwin pact would be the prelude to a more relaxed period of Indo-British relations were not borne out; Lord Willingdon (who replaced Irwin as viceroy in 1931) jailed Gandhi in January 1932, shortly after Gandhi's return from the second Round Table Conference in London. He was charged with attempting to mount another civil disobedience movement; Nehru was also arrested and sentenced to two years' imprisonment.
The three Round Table Conferences in London, held to advance India's progress to self-government, eventually resulted in the Government of India Act of 1935, giving the Indian provinces a system of popular autonomous government. Ultimately, it provided for a federal system composed of the autonomous provinces and princely states. Although federation never came into being, provincial autonomy was implemented. During the mid-1930s Nehru was much concerned with developments in Europe, which seemed to be drifting toward another world war. He was in Europe early in 1936, visiting his ailing wife, shortly before she died in a sanitarium in Switzerland. Even at this time he emphasized that in the event of war India's place was alongside the democracies, though he insisted that India could only fight in support of Great Britain and France as a free country.
When the elections following the introduction of provincial autonomy brought the Congress Party to power in a majority of the provinces, Nehru was faced with a dilemma. The Muslim League under Mohammed Ali Jinnah (who was to become the creator of Pakistan) had fared badly at the polls. Congress, therefore, unwisely rejected Jinnah's plea for the formation of coalition Congress-Muslim League governments in some of the provinces, a decision on which Nehru had not a little influence. The subsequent clash between the Congress and the Muslim League hardened into a conflict between Hindus and Muslims that was ultimately to lead to the partition of India and the creation of Pakistan.
Imprisonment during World War II
When, at the outbreak of World War II in September 1939, the viceroy, Lord Linlithgow, committed India to war without consulting the autonomous provincial ministries, the Congress Party's high command withdrew its provincial ministries as a protest. Congress's action left the political field virtually open to Jinnah and the Muslim League. Nehru's views on the war differed from those of Gandhi. Initially, Gandhi believed that whatever support was given to the British should be given unconditionally and that it should be of a nonviolent character. Nehru held that nonviolence had no place in defense against aggression and that India should support Great Britain in a war against Nazism, but only as a free nation. If it could not help, it should not hinder.
In October 1940, Gandhi, abandoning his original stand, decided to launch a limited civil disobedience campaign in which leading advocates of Indian independence were selected to participate one by one. Nehru was arrested and sentenced to four years' imprisonment. After spending a little more than a year in jail, he was released, along with other Congress prisoners, three days before the bombing of Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. When the Japanese carried their attack through Burma (now Myanmar) to the borders of India in the spring of 1942, the British government, faced by this new military threat, decided to make some overtures to India. Prime Minister Winston Churchill dispatched Sir Stafford Cripps, a member of the war Cabinet who was politically close to Nehru and also knew Jinnah, with proposals for a settlement of the constitutional problem. Cripps's mission failed, however, for Gandhi would accept nothing less than independence.
The initiative in the Congress Party now passed to Gandhi, who called on the British to leave India; Nehru, though reluctant to embarrass the war effort, had no alternative but to join Gandhi. Following the Quit India resolution passed by the Congress Party in Bombay (now Mumbai) on Aug. 8, 1942, the entire Congress working committee, including Gandhi and Nehru, was arrested and imprisoned. Nehru emerged from this—his ninth and last detention—only on June 15, 1945.
Within two years India was to be partitioned and free. A final attempt by the viceroy, Lord Wavell, to bring the Congress Party and the Muslim League together failed. The Labour government that had meanwhile displaced Churchill's wartime administration dispatched, as one of its first acts, a Cabinet mission to India and later also replaced Lord Wavell with Lord Mountbatten. The question was no longer whether India was to be independent but whether it was to consist of one or more independent states. While Gandhi refused to accept partition, Nehru reluctantly but realistically acquiesced. On Aug. 15, 1947, India and Pakistan emerged as two separate, independent countries. Nehru became independent India's first prime minister.

Must-Have Firefox Extensions
Plugins and extensions—they're what made Photoshop such a bonanza from the late 1980s onward, and they gave it the market push to triumph over competitors who preferred to keep their tools and development completely in-house. It was a great idea—make your own product more valuable by letting other people enhance it for their own benefit—and it worked famously. In the graphics world, everyone's got 'em now. But, in the browsing world...well, it takes an open-source project to apply that kind of functionality across categories.
Firefox did it, and it's one of the innovations that has helped Mozilla claw its way up from the bottom of the stack in the browser wars. Even though Internet Explorer still comes bundled with Windows, and Safari with Mac OS, and Konqueror with KDE, users across platforms opt for Firefox with greater and greater frequency. It's not just the tabbed browsing, or the built-in pop-up blockers, or the standards-compliance or the built-in search box—it's also the add-ons.
The Mozilla Project's plugin-based architecture turns a solid application into a customizer's paradise. The projects available on the Mozilla Add-ons site now stretch into the thousands, which gives the end user the opposite problem of the no-choice straitjacket of certain other browsers. The embarrassment of riches means too much choice, and figuring out how to narrow it down is no mean task.
The extensions come in a variety of flavors—from add-on applications to interface tweaks to toolbars. Here are a few that most users will find very handy. They extend functionality, enhance privacy and give users a leg up on taking their favorite content with them wherever they wish to go.
Web pages are great things. The democratization of media that the Internet brings us means that everyone has a Web site, and it's a great thing. There's only one problem with everyone having a Web site: everyone has a Web site—even people who think it's cute to have their own personal radio station running any time you log on to one of their pages.
I may be a curmudgeon, but as much as I care about the teeming masses of humanity on-line, that affection does not extend to being willing to tolerate someone else's attempt to soundtrack my corner of the universe. It's been the case for several years now that if you wanted to surf around on MySpace or thumb through your Aunt Estelle's family photo albums on her personal site, you had two choices: endure the autoplay music, or turn your speakers off.
Not anymore—not if you surf with Firefox. Sun Chun-Yen's Stop Autoplay extension automagically toggles off all autoplaying media, and it allows you to blacklist Flash media providers if they get on your nerves. With Stop Autoplay installed, instead of embedded media assaulting you before the page finishes rendering, you are presented with a little red box with a Play button inside it. If you are inclined to listen to the embedded media, you have the option at your fingertips. If you're not, it won't bother you. It's a beautiful little plugin. It's simple, elegant and "just works". It also can help save you from vicious attacks by coworkers who don't like the autoplayed music either.
Protecting you from your boss (who actually expects you to be working when you're on the clock) is the noble quest undertaken by another add-on, Panic. Panic sets up a hotkey that, when pressed, will close all open tabs and open a tab containing the URL of a page you're actually supposed to be looking at. Note that it closes the tabs, it doesn't hide them. Once you press your user-definable hotkey, they're gone. Sure, trudging through the browser history to re-find that amazing article on "Linux Home Automation: the Ultimate Internet-Controlled Gun Cabinet" can be a drag, but when it saves you an unpleasant conversation with your boss, it's worth the price.
On a related note, there is an extension that protects you from inconvenient questions from young children, nosy roommates and casual snoopers at neighborhood coffee shops. If you've ever heard the words "Mommy, what does 'stud' mean?" or "Daddy, what's burka porn?" from a five-year-old who has apparently appeared at your elbow from a neighboring dimension, you know what I mean. The Net sucks you in, and sometimes someone walks up behind you and starts reading over your shoulder—or worse, reading the names of the other tabs you're saving for later—and you don't notice them for a few hours...um, minutes.
Enter TabRenamizer, an extension that lets you protect your privacy by renaming the tabs in your open browser windows. It integrates seamlessly with Firefox, sitting as a menu option in the Tools window that lets you set it either to rename all future tabs or to rename all open tabs randomly. You also can rename an individual tab selectively by right-clicking on the tab title and selecting the now-present rename this tab option from the context menu. This gives you a renaming dialog so that you can give the tab any name you want.

Not all Firefox extensions
Not all Firefox extensions are little plugins or interface tweaks. Some of them are full-on, serious applications that just happen to run in a Firefox tab. There are quite a few of these, including a number of very good security auditing tools.
Today's modular x86 servers are compute-centric, designed as a least common denominator to support a wide range of IT workloads. Those generic, virtualized IT workloads have much different resource optimization requirements than hyperscale and cloud applications. They have resulted in a "one size fits all" enterprise IT architecture that is not optimized for a specific set of IT workloads, and especially not emerging hyperscale workloads, such as web applications, big data, and object storage. In this report, you will learn how shifting the focus from traditional compute-centric IT architectures to an innovative disaggregated fabric-based architecture can optimize and scale your data center.

Free Webinar: Linux Backup and Recovery
Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Balenciaga was the most exclusive fashion house in Paris immediately after World War II. The Spanish-born couturier Cristóbal Balenciaga (1895-1972), regarded by his peers as 'the Master', had moved to Paris from Spain in 1937. By 1952 he had 232 employees there and was producing 356 new designs per year. His clients, admitted to his salon only after a personal introduction, included many cosmopolitan women of different nationalities.
Balenciaga was a perfectionist in cutting, sewing and finishing garments, and was renowned for his exacting standards. The dress, shown here as it was displayed for the V&A's 2007 exhibition, The Golden Age of Couture: Paris and London 1947-1957, reveals Balenciaga's preference for stiff, matte fabrics and his liking for the sombre black of the dress of the Spanish clergy - both contemporary and as depicted in the paintings of his fellow countryman, the artist Francisco de Zurbarán (1598–1664).

Inspiration for Children's Art Work?
Philip Glass composed this music for Sesame Street in 1979. It is not sampled from his other works. It has aired on Sesame Street as recently as 1994 and probably later. It consists of the movement of six circles (each with a different color of the rainbow) that are formed by and split up into various geometric patterns.
This piece is probably both inspirational and educational for children. As one YouTube comment mentions; "television producers often assume children are stupid, but not so… what children are is impressionable. If we feed them beautiful things, they will turn around and create beautiful things of their own".
This makes me think about where inspiration is derived from.
Even a Beginner's Mind needs to start from somewhere…
Artist Marvin Bartel defines four sources of inspiration for creating art:
1. Ordinary Experience. Most of children's spontaneous drawing falls into this category.
2. Natural and Constructed Environment. Observational work.
3. Inner feelings and Imagination. Expressive and Imaginative work.
4. Quest for Order. Careful and deliberate designs, patterns, etc. Order is generally found in all art work, whether it is figurative, narrative, or totally abstract in nature. Even chaos when it has been produced intentionally, might be interpreted as a form of order.
The subject matter for art work comes from Observation, Memory, and Imagination.
This I would agree with for older children, but for younger children - they may just be experimenting with 'colour' to experience the feel, the texture and the joy of simply putting it on the paper.
Next time you observe your child's art work, maybe this will help you understand a bit more about where it is coming from and just how valuable that 'scribble' is for their developing communication, imagination and expression.

Both the TOYROOM and MEGO73 make excellent repo boxes and cards, Something you may want to consider if you collect loose figures
Rick, you can do all 3, you just have to be patient and be willing to settle for some of the rarer carded figures in lower grade, at least in the short term, not only due to cost but also limited availability. Don't be discouraged by the outcome of the Vegas auctions. You can have a carded GA, Aquaman, Lizard, or Riddler for much less than those went for, but they probably won't be top grade.
BUYING MOC 8" Tomlands (Star Raiders, Famous Monsters of Legend, Creatures from Other Worlds, Star Command, etc)
I like loose. Its easier to make love to them.
I am proud to be Americana. In today's society, I would be considered folklore -Me
I've been going after all 3 for years now - loose, boxed and carded.
I have everybody loose.
I only need 5 boxed (Goblin, Batman, Conan, Batgirl and Invisible Girl). I haven't been able to find any of these at a good price in a good box.
But I need 13 of them carded, which includes WW, Goblin, Aquaman, Arrow, Riddler, etc. The realistic ones I'm looking for are Thor, Conan, Invisible Girl and Mxy plus all the Titans.
I just want one of each and don't need/want every variation of them all except for Robin of course. And I wouldn't mind having one on the duel card.

WANTED: Boxed, Carded and Kresge Carded WGSH
carded and boxed for me, i dont really like loose stuff, well on top of that my customers dont like it either.
those looking for original carded aquaman frankens i can help, as new force could tell you my good service is always available
but yeah if im to keep a piece it would have to be carded or boxed or its gets sold on
loose is fine especially for price
Like them loose, because of pricing...and because all I want to do is customize their outfits.
Those who look outside dream. Those who look within awake.
Samples of my work are found here: Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness
To do list:
1:6 boots for Mathilda, 1:1 Romulan Commander outfit, Ursus helmet; Cornelius appliance
1:9 scale ape's new suit for Cornelius;
I'm similar to Scott in my collecting- I finished my loose WGSH collection a few years back. Now I'm a few away in boxed and carded.
Dan (dumbldore) was right on in saying it is doable. It just takes time and the willingness to get a lesser card or box. I do not see myself ever getting a carded Iron Man or Wonder Woman, but I'd jump on one with a lifted bubble and beat-up card.
Right now I'm focusing on finding my last three boxes- Batgir, Supergirl and Thor.
WANTED - Solid-Boxed WGSH's, C.8 or better.

Who is this guy and why are my videos appearing on his YouTube feed? Also it seems that I am not the only one whose videos are appearing on his feed.
For information my account is linked correctly to YouTube, but every black ops clip goes to his account. He has thousands of Black Ops clips... am I missing something here?
EDIT: This is the YouTube feed: http://www.youtube.com/user/CODblackopsXBOX/feed
There are accounts that are made by the developers so that people who do not have YouTube account can upload clips and share them on YouTube. Do you have you account linked via Call of Duty Elite?
Arggggh these forums are BROKEN! I have not been able to respond to this question for several days. In answer to your question ELITE_Help, yes I do have a YouTube account. I have successfully posted videos from MW3 to my YouTube account, however every time I post a video from BlackOps it goes on to this account instead.
I even contact Activition support because it was frustrating me so much and they have NO IDEA who this user was. How on earth do I stop MY videos being posted on to that channel and on to my channel?
unlink then link back to your utube account. if it happens again then something nepharious is going on and should be reported.
Im Getting the same thing and i have unlinked and linked it multiple times ..
Help !!
Yeah, I never resolved this problem. My original black ops videos have never appears on my channel. I can see them here on Elite in my Vault but they aren't on my channel.
TBH, my experience with this forums as well is that NO-ONE in any position of support or authority will assist you with any issues either, so my advice, I wouldn't waste your breath.

Ewing sarcoma
Disease Information
Research & Innovation
If your child has a progressive or recurrent tumor, he may be eligible for a number of experimental therapies available at Dana-Farber/Children's Hospital Cancer Center (DF/CHCC).
DF/CHCC was one of the first centers in the United States to use chemotherapy and perform limb-salvage surgery for patients with bone cancers like Ewing sarcoma. We are now conducting numerous research studies to help better understand and treat childhood cancers, and our researchers are directing and participating in national and international clinical trials to develop novel treatments.
Some of our most relevant research breakthroughs include:
Dana-Farber participated in a recently completed study investigating whether interval compression, a way of giving chemotherapy more intensively, improves outcomes for Ewing sarcoma patients.
With the help of hematopoietic growth factors (proteins that stimulate marrow cells to grow and produce blood cells), patients can receive chemotherapy every two weeks instead of three, increasing the amount of therapy administered over a given time period.
The results of this trial show that interval compression does improve outcome; interval compression has now become the standard treatment for Ewing sarcoma. .
We are also conducting a laboratory-based study with the goal of developing a method for detection of Ewing sarcoma cells in the bone marrow. Standard bone marrow tests can identify Ewing sarcoma cells if they are present at a high level – but the method being developed in this study may allow detection of a very low level of Ewing sarcoma cells, too.
Clinical trials
Dana-Farber/Children's Hospital Cancer Center (DF/CHCC) is one of the top pediatric research centers in the world. Our research program includes laboratory scientists and clinical researchers from both Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Children's Hospital Boston. We investigate conditions from every angle—from examining cells under the microscope to tracking response to current drug regimens—so that we can create better treatments for your child.
Clinical trials, or research studies evaluating new treatment approaches, are a major offering at DF/CHCC. Clinical trials are very important for children with hard-to-treat or relapsed conditions. We offer enrollment on several independent, as well as cooperative, treatment studies, many of which are available only at our center.
View our searchable list of clinical trials.
In addition:
The Children's Oncology Group is a consortium of cancer treatment centers across the United States, Canada, and other countries that conduct studies of nearly every kind of pediatric cancer. Our participation in this group gives children with cancer unparalleled access to the newest clinical trials. Learn more.
- Dana-Farber/Children's Hospital Cancer Center has a number of Phase I studies available. If your child has progressive or recurrent Ewing sarcoma, he may be eligible for a number of experimental therapies available through these groups, or through one of our independent clinical investigators. Learn more.
Translational research |
Children's and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute are world leaders in opening new avenues of "translational research," bringing laboratory advances to the bedside and doctor's office as quickly as possible.

A. a. americana |
The pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) is a species of artiodactyl mammal endemic to interior western and central North America. Though not an antelope, it is often known colloquially in North America as the prong buck, pronghorn antelope, or simply antelope,[3] as it closely resembles the true antelopes of the Old World and fills a similar ecological niche due to convergent evolution.[4] It is the only surviving member of the family Antilocapridae.[5] During the Pleistocene period, 12 antilocaprid species existed in North America.[6] About five existed when humans entered North America[citation needed] and all but A. americana are now extinct.[5]
Contents |
Description [edit]
Adult males are 1.3–1.5 m (4 ft 3 in–4 ft 10 in) long from nose to tail, stand 81–104 cm (32–41 in) high at the shoulder, and weigh 40–65 kg (88–140 lb). The females are the same height as males but weigh 34–48 kg (75–110 lb). The feet have just two hooves, with no dewclaws. The body temperature is 38 °C (100 °F).[5][7][8][9]
Each "horn" of the pronghorn is composed of a slender, laterally flattened blade of bone that grows from the frontal bones of the skull, forming a permanent core. As in the Giraffidae, skin covers the bony cores, but in the pronghorn it develops into a keratinous sheath which is shed and regrown on an annual basis. Unlike the horns of the family Bovidae, the horn sheaths of the pronghorn are branched, each sheath possessing a forward-pointing tine (hence the name pronghorn). The horns of males are well developed.
The orbits (eye sockets) are prominent and sit high on the skull; there is never an antorbital pit. The teeth are hypsodont, and the dental formula is:
Dentition |
0.0.3.3 |
184.108.40.206 |
Males have a prominent pair of horns on the top of the head, which are made up of an outer sheath of hairlike substance that grows around a bony core; the outer sheath is shed annually. Males have a horn sheath about 12.5–43 cm (4.9–17 in) (average 25 cm (9.8 in)) long with a prong. Females have smaller horns, ranging from 2.5–15 cm (1–6 in) (average 12 centimetres (4.7 in)) and sometimes barely visible; they are straight and very rarely pronged.[8] Males are further differentiated from females in that males will have a small patch of black hair at the angle of the mandible. Pronghorns have a distinct, musky odor. Males mark territory with a scent gland located on the sides of the head.[5] They also have very large eyes, with a 320 degree field of vision. Unlike deer, pronghorns possess a gallbladder.[10]
It can run exceptionally fast, being built for maximum predator evasion through running, and is generally accepted to be the fastest land mammal in the Western Hemisphere. The top speed is very hard to measure accurately and varies between individuals; it can run 35 mph for 4 mi (56 km/h for 6 km), 42 mph for 1 mi (67 km/h for 1.6 km); and 55 mph for .5 mi (88.5 km/h for .8 km).[11][7] It is often cited as the second-fastest land animal, second only to the cheetah.[12] It can, however, sustain high speeds longer than cheetahs.[6] University of Idaho zoologist John Byers has suggested that the pronghorn evolved its running ability to escape from extinct predators such as the American cheetah, since its speed greatly exceeds that of extant North American predators.[6][13] It has a very large heart and lungs, and hollow hair. Although built for speed, it is a very poor jumper. Their ranges are often affected by sheep ranchers' fences. However, they can be seen going under fences, sometimes at high speed. For this reason the Arizona Antelope Foundation and others are in the process of removing the bottom barbed wire from the fences, and/or installing a barb-less bottom wire.[citation needed]
The pronghorn has been observed to have at least 13 distinct gaits, including one reaching nearly 7.3 m (8 yards) per stride.[6]
Range and ecology [edit]
Pronghorns were brought to scientific notice by the Lewis and Clark Expedition, which found them in what is now South Dakota. The range extends from southern Saskatchewan and Alberta in Canada south through the United States (southwestern Minnesota and central Texas west to coastal southern California[14][15] and northern Baja California Sur, to Sonora and San Luis Potosí in northern Mexico.[5][16]
The subspecies known as the Sonoran pronghorn (Antilocapra americana sonoriensis) occurs in Arizona and Mexico.[8] Other subspecies include the Mexican pronghorn (A. a. mexicana), the Oregon pronghorn (A. a. oregona), and the critically endangered Baja California Pronghorn (A. a. peninsularis).
Pronghorns live primarily in grasslands but also in brushland and deserts. They eat a wide variety of plant foods, often including plants that are unpalatable or toxic to domestic livestock (sheep and cattle) though they also compete with these for food.[7] In one study forbs comprised 62% of the diet, shrubs 23%, and grasses 15%,[7] while in another, cacti comprised 40%, grass 22%, forbs 20%, and shrubs 18%.[8] An ongoing study by the Lava Lake Institute for Science and Conservation and the Wildlife Conservation Society, shows an overland migration route that covers more than 160 miles.[17] The migrating pronghorn start travel from the foothills of the Pioneer Mountains through Craters of the Moon National Monument to the Continental Divide. Dr. Scott Bergen of Wildlife Conservation Society says, "This study shows that pronghorn are the true marathoners of the American West. With these new findings, we can confirm that Idaho supports a major overland mammal migration -- an increasingly rare phenomenon in the U.S. and worldwide."[18]
Cougars, wolves, coyotes and bobcats are the major predators. Golden Eagles have been reported to prey on fawns.
Social behavior and reproduction [edit]
Pronghorns form mixed-sex herds in the winter. In early spring the herds break up with young males forming bachelor groups, females forming their groups and adult males living a solitary life.[19] There are female bands which share the same summer range and bachelor male bands form between spring and fall. Females form dominance hierarchies with few circular relationships.[20] Dominant females will aggressively displace other females from feeding sites.
Adult male pronghorns employ two different mating strategies during the breeding season. A pronghorn male will defend a fixed territory that females may enter or it might defend a harem of females. A pronghorn may change mating strategies depending on environmental or demographic conditions.[19] In areas that have high precipitation, adult male pronghorn tend to be territorial and maintain their territories with scent marking, vocalizing and challenging intruders.[21] In these systems, territorial males have access to better resources than bachelor males.[21] Females also employ different mating strategies. "Sampling" females will visit several males and remain with each for a short time before switching to the next male, at an increasing rate as oestrus approaches. "Inciting" females will behave as samplers until oestrus and then incite conflicts between males. The females watch and then mate with the winners. "Quiet" females will remain with a single male in an isolated area throughout oestrus.[22]
When courting an estrous female, a male pronghorn will approach her while softly vocalizing[19] and waving his head side to side, displaying his cheek patches.[23] A receptive female will remain motionless and sniff his scent gland and then allow the male to mount her.[19] Pronghorns have a gestation period of 235 days, longer than is typical for North American ungulates. They breed in mid-September, and the doe carries her fawn until late May. This is around six weeks longer than the white-tailed deer. Newborn pronghorns weigh 2–4 kg, most commonly 3 kg. In their first 21–26 days, a fawn spends time hiding in vegetation.[21] Fawns interact with their mothers for 20–25 minutes a day and this continues even when the fawn joins a nursery.[21] The females nurse, groom, and lead their young to food and water as well as keep predators away from them.[21] Males are weaned 2–3 weeks earlier than females.[21] Sexual maturity is reached at 15 to 16 months, though males rarely breed until 3 years old. The longevity is typically up to 10 years, rarely 15 years.[7][8][9]
Population and conservation [edit]
By the 1920s, hunting pressure had reduced the pronghorn population to about 13,000.[6] Protection of habitat and hunting restrictions have allowed their numbers to recover to an estimated population of between 500,000 and 1,000,000.[24] There has been some recent decline in a few localized populations,[7] due to blue tongue disease which is spread from sheep; however the overall trend has been positive since conservation measures were put in place.
Pronghorn migration corridors are threatened by habitat fragmentation and the blocking of traditional migration routes. In a migration study conducted by Lava Lake Institute for Science and Conservation and the Wildlife Conservation Society, at one point the migration corridor bottlenecks to an area only 200 yards wide.[25]
Pronghorns are now quite numerous and outnumbered people in Wyoming and parts of northern Colorado until just recently. It is legally hunted in western states for purposes of population control and food; the meat is rich and lean. There are no major range-wide threats, although localized declines are taking place, particularly to the Sonoran pronghorn, mainly as a result of, among others, livestock grazing, the construction of roads, fences and other barriers that prevent access to historical habitat, illegal hunting, insufficient forage and water, and lack of recruitment.[1]
Three subspecies are considered endangered in all (A. a. sonoriensis, A. a. peninsularis), or part of their ranges (A. a. mexicana). Populations of the Sonoran pronghorn in Arizona and Mexico are protected under the US Endangered Species Act (since 1967), and a recovery plan for this subspecies has been prepared by USFWS (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 1998).[1] Mexican animals are listed on CITES Appendix I. Pronghorns have game-animal status in all of the western states of the United States, and permits are required to trap or shoot pronghorns.[1]

A fairly new brand, since 2009, Anabolic Designs bring products that actually work with outstanding effects to the market. Since day one, Anabolic Designs products are truly effective, and rest assured you can also trust Monster Muscle for a huge selection of Anabolic Designs supplements.
Although the Anabolic Designs product line up isn't vast, the supplements that they do have are quality products.

Anabolic Designs Ravenous is a very useful supplement, especially for those that are hard gainers; it helps aid digestion and thus your ability to eat more food, ideal for those trying to gain muscle.
Anabolic Designs supplements can be split into two categories, those that are for helping you pack on lean muscle mass, or to help you get ripped. Combine Ravenous and BullK alongside a high calorie, protein rich diet and you are on your way to packing on the muscle weight. At the other end of the spectrum, there are the fat burning supplements such as Tauro Test and Shredabull. With the full range of Anabolic Designs supplements at Monster Muscle, there really is no choice but to try them.
