Clinical trials are research studies in which people help doctors find ways to improve health and cancer care. Each study tries to answer scientific questions and to find better ways to prevent, diagnose or treat cancer. Learn more about the different types and phases of clinical trials.
Today it is possible to enroll in a clinical trial as the first step in your treatment after a cancer diagnosis. There are literally hundreds of trials available across the country. In fact, many of our most effective treatments used today for breast, colon, rectal and childhood cancers are the result of recent successes in clinical trials. As a participant a patient has the opportunity to help further the cause for other cancer patients, and possibly be helped by the treatments they receive. Participation in a clinical trial is voluntary.
Below is a listing current treatment clinical trials for cancer offered through the Genesis Cancer Care Institute and Iowa Cancer Specialists. See clinical trials offered by Hematology-Oncology Associates of the Quad-Cities, PC.
Each trial below is linked to a complete description provided by the National Cancer Institute. If you need assistance with this process, contact us.
You may search for other clinical trials through the following links: National Cancer Institute Clinical Trial Search; Emerging Med; Trial Check; or Center Watch.

Verizon Says Scores Of Companies Want Its Spectrum
Aug 20, 2012, 10:31 AM by Eric M. Zeman @phonescooper
Verizon Wireless said that a total of 64 companies -- including AT&T and U.S. Cellular -- have expressed interest in purchasing its Lower A and B Block 700MHz spectrum assets, according to filings with the Federal Communications Commission. Verizon floated the idea of selling some of its spectrum assets earlier this year should the FCC greenlight Verizon's proposed acquisition of 122 AWS spectrum licenses from a consortium of cable companies. The Department of Justice has given permission for Verizon to proceed with the AWS purchase, and the FCC chairman has recommended to his fellow commissioners that the deal be approved. Verizon must divest an unspecified amount of spectrum to make the FCC happy, some of which will go to T-Mobile USA. Verizon wants the AWS licenses to help bolster its LTE 4G network. It hasn't set a date yet to sell its A and B Block 700MHz holdings, but plans to do so soon.

A follow up to the first one allowing a bit more freedom.
Read the instructions inside.
It would probably be best to have the latest flash player installed.
A small update:
Changing the ropes length can now also be done using the up and down arrows.
Detached limbs shouldn't take damage any more.
And there is twice as much health.
Added a shotgun and AK47.
Also you can now upload a picture to use in place of the default face.
Fixed the shotgun problem.

Tarras welcome back after nine long years
Last updated at 13:41, Thursday, 15 March 2012
BORDER band Tarras bring their traditional folk sound to Kendal tomorrow night.
The six-piece band hail from the North of England and Scottish borders, and play an upbeat blend of traditional and self-penned songs.
One of the most exciting bands to emerge on the folk scene for some time, their instruments include the accordion, violin and cittern.
Fused with drums, bass, piano and guitar the unsual combination creates a traditional yet at the same time cutting edge and contemporary sound. After a well-earned nine-year break, the band return with their distinctive style and a few new faces.
With record deals on both sides of the Atlantic, the band have received acclaim in high places.
Tarras gained folk album of the month in Mojo magazine, four stars in Q magazine and shortlisted at the Radio 2 folk awards.
They will be playing material from their two acclaimed albums, as well as songs from brand new record Warn The Waters.
The show starts at 7.30pm and tickets are available from the venue's box office.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
Type purists may be appalled by the lack of adherence to traditional forms, but the font should be seen as only "in the spirit of" blackletter, and attempting something that hasn't been seen or done before—something that feels traditional, yet at the same time fresh and perhaps unexpected.
I'm working on a wordmark for a consulting firm that mostly does business with the government. Currently it's just ff Olsen with some minor alterations (rounded Corners, shortened ascender and took in the serifs a bit).
Let me know what you think. Is it too plain? awkward looking etc... I think I'm losing the forest for the trees on this one and need some feedback.
Hey Guys !
I'm looking for a good font to create and all font logo.
Attached is the style I'm looking for.
Tips and ideas are welcome !
Thanks !
I've been looking for this font for sometime now can anyone please help me out.
Can anyone help, please?
I am no type expert, but a friend of mine asked me to make changes to a logo for him. Original designer cut up files so I can't determine which fonts these are. There are two different fonts in this logo:
I'm currently working on the logotype for author Ethan Risso, and I would really appreciate other sets of eyes to see how it is looking so far. Thanks in advance!
This logo was designed for us by an advertising agency designer who has since left the agency. The CD has no record of the work, and I have had no luck trying to identify the font. One special feature of the font is the letter "k". Does anyone know the name of this font?
Tom Kerr
Just wondering if anyone knows the font used (or a similar one) in this "2013" text font (see attachment). This is from the 2013 Billboard Music Awards Logo. Thanks.
This is logo for Forgotten Hope Secret Weapon mod for Battlefield 1942.
There is a logo I'm working on and now I've been struggling to find a typeface that would nicely complement it. I thought that I could perform some crowdsourcing here on Typophile. I can't show the logo now but the attached image sums it up pretty well. It's geometric, modern, rounded, drawn on a grid but at the same time looks like made with a flat calligraphic brush.
I must say that so far only Museo looks like a good match but I'm slightly put off by the fact its free and ubiquitous. If nothing better is found I might fall back to it, however.
Thanks in advance!
Key words to consider: contemporary, community, traditional values.
If anyone could identify or recommend a font similar to the letters PAGO in their logo, the juice that is, I would be really grateful.
Thanks in advance
Please help identify the Europop logo font pictured :)
Hi, guys.
Can anyone identify a font from the logo?
need your help guys, what's the font for GAP, la senza, next, bebe and braun buffel? thanks a lot!
Hi there!
I am fairly new to vectorizing type and I would like some very constructive and critical feedback. I am very new to Glyphs and that is what I used to build this out (see the below to get all intimate with my nodes). Please let me know what you think! Where I can improve it, and other thoughts.
Font of "HOUSTON 2013" on NBA All Star Game ?
Hello, I search the font of this logo, the official logo of the NBA All Star Game 2013 in Houston last February, particulary the font of HOUSTON 2013. If you don't know, can somebody tell me a font resembling ? (the shape of the circles, the octogon of the "0"...)
Thank you very much (Sorry for my bad english, I'm French)
Hi Guys,
I don't actually use this forum like I should be because I'm not a typographer by any means but it's a brilliant resource for getting advice on type related design (lets admit it, 90% of it is type) and you guys are pros when it comes to whitespace and composition. I try to throw my opinion in when its suitable and helpful.
Today I thought I'd post a completed job for it to be torn apart and learn me something.
Red Courgette is a client of mine headed by an over-qualified chef. She's done the rounds of restaurants and world travel and has decided to dig into the catering pie to deliver her delicious goods with credits in the right places.
I'm trying to put together a nice presentation template for my new department at work. Unfortunately, I'm a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to my talks, and so I'm not happy to putting a pixelated PNG in my talk as the department logo.
Unfortunately, the person who put this image together is no longer working here, I'm told, so noone knows what font was used. I'm trying to recreate this logo in high quality.
I'd like to request an ID on this font, and ideally, a free font that is as close to this one as possible, such that I may recreate it.
I think I've IDed the font as Scylla, although confirmation would be fantastic. It's not free, so I can't try it. I've attached the logo, and look forward to your opinions and suggstions.
Trying to figure out the serif typeface used in the CautionWear logo. All responses are appreciated!
Hi all,
This is a serpentine-like font we used to letter a truck for one of our customers. We don't have the true-type file.
I'd appreciate it if you could take a look and a guess at what the font is.
Any comments on this logo for an architectural practice:

The lawsuit was filed in U.S. District Court in Phoenix by seven same-sex couples and two people whose same-sex partners had died. It is the latest of a series of legal actions across the nation challenging such state bans.
"Every day that same-sex couples in Arizona are denied marriage, the government sends a message that their families are not worthy of equal dignity and respect," Jennifer Pizer, one of the attorneys who filed the legal action, said in a statement.
The lawsuit comes as gay rights advocates gain momentum in their fight to legalize same-sex marriage. Federal judges have recently struck down gay marriage bans in states including Utah and Texas. Such rulings have been put on hold pending appeals.
The trend follows a U.S. Supreme Court ruling in June that legally married same-sex couples nationwide are eligible for federal benefits. The decision struck down a key part of the 1996 federal Defense of Marriage Act.
Arizona is among more than 30 states that still ban gay or lesbian couples from marrying. The lawsuit says an Arizona constitutional amendment and state statutes that ban same-sex marriage violate federal equal protection and due process clauses.
Last month, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer vetoed a bill that would have allowed business owners to claim their religious beliefs as legal justification for refusing to serve same-sex couples or any other prospective customers, widely believed to have been drafted in response to the national momentum toward legalizing same-sex marriage.
Brewer, who said Wednesday that she would not seek another term, was under intense pressure from business and political leaders to veto the bill. The lead plaintiffs in the Arizona case are a septugenarian couple, Nelda Majors, 75, and Karen Bailey, 74, who live in the Phoenix suburb of Scottsdale. The two women, who have been together 55 years, raised two children together.
On March 4, the couple tried to get a marriage license in Maricopa County, where they live, but were turned down.
Another of the seven couples also tried and failed to obtain a license, and the rest were legally married in other states and seek to have their marriages recognized.
Two of the plaintiffs had been legally married in other states, but were not identified on the death certificates after their spouses died, the lawsuit said.
Failure to be named on the death certificate amounted to a "shocking denial of their relationships at the time of most intense loss and grief, and remains a source of pain and deep sadness," the lawsuit said.
The lawsuit names as defendants Arizona Attorney General Tom Horne; Will Humble, director of the state health services department, and Michael Jeanes, Maricopa County Superior Court clerk.
Stephanie Grisham, a spokeswoman for Horne, said the attorney general's office would defend the state against the lawsuit.
Earlier this month, the governor of Kentucky said he would hire an outside lawyer to appeal a federal court ruling striking down that state's ban on same-sex marriage, after Attorney General Jack Conway declined to do so.

unicode possibilities
It would be nice if cl-user would display unicode input for CJK text. With PCL and On Lisp getting new printings in Japan, it might be beneficial to attract more brain-share from that side of the world. Would this be considered out of cl-user.net's scope?

re: unicode possibilities
I have to think about it.
The use of English as the standard language is prefered so that the information is useable by most lispers.
I don't mind some other language content though.

South Taranaki Star
Stratford's Prospero Pl is set for a new look in the next couple of years.
The Stratford District Council is undertaking a review of library services as part of a wider look at improving the use of that area for residents, said Mike Avery, director of community and environmental services.
It has been a long time since the council last reviewed such services and times have changed, Mr Avery said.
"The area is wonderful but it doesn't get as higher traffic count as it could," he said.
"We would like to see the relationship between Prospero Place and the Clock Tower heightened."
Mr Avery said despite the Percy Thomson museum, the library services, the information centre and a cafe all being located in the area, it was still common for people to walk down Broadway and miss Prospero Place.
"There's always opportunities for improvement," he said.
Added to that is the fact that community requirements of the library have changed; it is no longer the quiet primary place to access books.
People now visit the library for internet access, as a meeting place for reading groups, and a hot spot for tourists needing information.
"Some people are wanting to make a fair bit of noise in the space and others need a bit of quiet," he said.
To help with the consultation, the council has enlisted the help of a surveying company.
A representative spent time in the library interviewing users last week.
Mr Avery stresses that this is only an initial consultation phase, there is no budget in the Long Term Plan for work to be carried out in the area anytime soon.
"If the community is overwhelmingly happy with the service provided there, then that will put some sort of limit on further development," he said.
Stratford district librarian Jonet Moore said use of the library has definitely changed over the past few years.
While many still borrow books for recreational reading, Ms Moore said that libraries across New Zealand have noticed a large drop in non-fiction requirements.
"If someone wants to find out some information then the internet is the first port of call."
She said they also have a lot of people using the wireless internet connection with their own computers, tablets or cellphones or using library computers.
There are questionnaires in the Stratford District and Centennial Library on Prospero Place until tomorrow when they will be sent away for collating.

Why Good Men Wear Bad Jeans
Why is it that men repeatedly make the same fashion faux pas, and even when they get called out, manage to get away with it? Just because everyone hated Obama's mom jeans doesn't mean they disappeared from the repertoire of men's style. (Unfortunately.) New York Times fashion writer Guy Trebay attempts to unravel…

Has American Apparel Gone Preppy?
Is that ... could these really be ... American Apparel models? But they're not wearing plaid, thick glasses, or neon. These boys actually look kind of preppy. And dare we even say it? Hot. Among American Apparel's latest men's collection are some decidedly non-hipster looks that we haven't quite seen from the retailer before.

This Rodarte Sweater Will Make Him A Pauper

Sequins For Men?
The staff of Dazed Digital got a sneak peek at some of the goods from Louis Vuitton's men's collection. The spring 2010 line apparently includes these very shiny dress shoes covered in silver sequins. As far as sequins in men's fashion go, they've thankfully stayed put in the closets of Chippendale's dancers. Is thi…

Lauren O'Leary. |
Nov. 11, 2013
WASHINGTON - This past summer, two Georgetown softball players traveled abroad to further their educational experiences during their four years at Georgetown. Junior pitcher Lauren O'Leary (La Canada, Calif./La Canada) studied at the ESADE Business School in Spain and sophomore catcher Molly Morrison (Northfield, Ill./New Trier) traveled to Zanzibar in Tanzania, which is located in Eastern Africa.
For student-athletes, it can be difficult to study aboard due to practice and regular-season schedules. "It was nice that it was in summer because I had a month when I came back to relax and get readjusted before I started back at school again," said O'Leary.
O'Leary spent six weeks, including the month of July, in Spain. The marketing and management double-major was enrolled in the ESADE Business School, located in Barcelona, Spain, where she was able to take two classes within her majors. When she wasn't studying international marketing and entrepreneurship from one of the top business schools on the globe, she was able to soak in the Spanish culture.
There was a language barrier for O'Leary, who hadn't taken Spanish since high school, but she went abroad with 25 other students from Georgetown, who she confessed were better at Spanish than she was. All of the students were able to take a Spanish class in order to learn and improve their language skills as well.
There were some cultural adjustments for the junior pitcher. Siesta was one of these adjustments. Translated to afternoon nap, the small residential town outside of Barcelona where O'Leary stayed would close down for the three hours every day for siesta from 2-5 p.m. "We would go out and try to get food and everything would be closed. And that was when we quickly realized that nobody ate dinner until 10 p.m.," said O'Leary.
"We also had the chance to travel to Nice, France and another weekend, I went to London to visit my cousin who was studying abroad as well," said O'Leary, the southern-California native.
Nice is in the southeast part of France located on the Mediterranean Sea.
Molly Morrison traveled to Zanzibar where she served as a volunteer teacher. She found a flyer at a coffee shop on campus in the spring and continued to see flyers posted around her dormitories. After an informational meeting, Morrison realized that this was not only something she wanted to do, but felt called to do.
In her first time leaving the United States, the sophomore catcher traveled with an organization called One Heart Source. According to their website, One Heart Source "is a non-profit organization designed to empower young people through education, and to provide high quality education and care for vulnerable children in Tanzania and South Africa."
"They started out as an organization that would build orphanages for children whose parents died from HIV/AIDS," said Morrison. "But they realized that they cannot effectively teach HIV/AIDS prevention when there is a lack of education programs."
Morrison, who had not previously thought of becoming an educator, recently declared her major as biology of global health. "Teaching was one of my greatest and most rewarding experiences," she said.
Morrison taught a sixth-grade English class and a fourth-grade math class in addition to the mentoring she did with four third-graders. In the evening, Morrison and her group worked with adults in the community to improve their English skills. She lived with a host family whose native-tongue was Swahili which posed a language barrier for the Illinois resident.
"Although I was there as the educator, the people taught me so much more about myself than I could ever imagine," Morrison said. "Every time something clicked for one of my students, whether it was how to subtract using borrowing or where to label elbow on the body, their faces lit up with excitement and pride, and I knew this was exactly where I needed to be."
"Moving forward, a day doesn't go by that I don't think about my family back in Zanzibar or my students running around on the soccer field. I am constantly reminded of not only how lucky I am to have such an amazing and supportive family here and to be a student-athlete at Georgetown, but most importantly for the opportunities I've had and where those have taken me," Morrison said.
O'Leary pitched 16 complete games last season with two shutouts in her 35 starts. Morrison started 16 games at catcher and appeared in 22 games for the Hoyas in her freshman season.
The Georgetown softball team has spent the fall practicing, playing fall games and helping out in the community with service projects. The Hoyas open their season with five games at the Florida Gulf Coast Tournament from Feb. 7 to Feb. 9, 2014 in Fort Myers, Fla.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- The U.S. economic recovery continues to lose steam, the Federal Reserve said Tuesday, but the central bank unveiled only tougher language but no new policies to try to spur growth.
While the Fed said it expects improvement ahead, it cautioned "the pace of economic recovery is likely to be modest in the near-term."
The Fed left its federal funds rate at close to 0%. That overnight lending rate, which is used as a benchmark to set the rates paid on a wide variety of business and consumer loans, has been at that level since December 2008.
The Fed's statement again promised that this rate would stay at an "exceptionally low levels" for an "extended period."
The Fed also announced it will continue to make new purchases of Treasurys with the proceeds of its earlier investments. That policy was announced at its previous meeting last month.
While the Fed did not announce any additional steps Tuesday, it was more aggressive in what it promised to do in the future if conditions weaken further. In its statement, the Fed indicated it is prepared to "provide additional accommodation" in order to "return inflation" to slightly higher levels.
Since central banks typically are more concerned with fighting, rather than feeding, inflation, the language was very unusual. It may be a sign that policymakers are more worried about the risks posed by lower prices rather than higher prices.
"That's pretty aggressive talk," said Bruce McCain, chief investment strategist at Key Private Bank in Cleveland. "They didn't draw the sword, but they sure rattled it quite a bit."
The Consumer Price Index, the government's key measure of inflation, is up only 1.1% over the last 12 months, while the core CPI, which strips out volatile food and energy prices, is up only 0.9%.
The Fed is widely believed to want to see core CPI up at least 1% to 2% in order to keep prices steady. The fear is that if prices fall, it can cause businesses to cut back production, That can lead to further job losses.
McCain said the Fed's statement lays the groundwork for the central bank to make additional purchases of assets such at Treasurys at subsequent meetings.
"This takes a major step in that direction," he said. "It's as much as they can do without announcing an actual date and details of such action."
But other experts said it may not matter what the Fed does at this point.
Sung Won Sohn, economics professor at Cal State University Channel Islands said that while the Fed has been making promises that it stands ready to act, "unfortunately, what the Fed can do to boost the economy is very limited."
Once again, Kansas City Fed President Thomas Hoenig objected to the statement and Fed policy. He argued the economy continues to recover at a moderate pace and that keeping rates so low for an extended period could lead to a new bubble in markets that will cause greater problems down the line.
Stil, the Fed said there are numerous signs of weakness in the economy, including employers reluctant to add staff, a depressed housing market, a slowdown in the growth of business investment and only modest improvement in consumer spending.
U.S. stock indexes initially moved higher on the announcement but gave up much of their gains by the end of the day. Treasury yields fell on the news.
