Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) is usually administered in a series of intramuscular (IM) injections to induce multiple ovulations for embryo production in cattle and other species. The objective of this study was to determine the superovulatory response of dairy cows to subcutaneous (SC) administration of FSH using a reduced number of injection...
Article
In this article, we provide an example of what we consider to be a productive archaeological collaboration between a State Agency and a Native American tribe that we believe has both theoretical and methodological implications. Our work implements and extends Hodder's reflexive method (1999) through the use of inclusivity, reciprocity and mutual re...

Article
Studies along Highway 395 in Mono County have identified several prehistoric sites, five of which were recently excavated. In this paper, it is assumed that the environment had an effect on site formation processes, particularly with respect to subsistence strategies. It is proposed that examination of obsidian hydration, sourcing, and paleoclimati...

... In vivo-produced blastocysts were generated using methods reported previously (Farin et al., 2009). Briefly, Holstein cows received an intravaginal progesteronereleasing device (CIDR-B, 1.38 mg progesterone; Pfizer Animal Health, USA) on Day 0, and 100ug GnRH i.m. (Cystorelin; Merial Ltd., USA) on Day 2. Cows were given a total of 400 mg FSH (Folltropin-V; Bioniche Animal Health, USA) by i.m. or subcutaneous (s.c.) injections on Days 4-7. ...
... Perhaps one of the clearest examples of a transformative collaborative archaeology comes from Dowdall and Parrish (2003), who describe the collaborative work done by the California Department of Transportation the Kashaya Pomo tribe in excavating a site known as C h it ibida•qalli (CA-SON-1661), located in Kashaya Pomo territory. The excavation methods on this project transformed standard, noncollaborative archaeological practices, adding not only consultation with paid tribal scholars but also incorporating prayer ceremonies into the excavation procedure, taking dreams seriously as a source of information about methodological decisions, and having all excavation team members observe traditional k h ela rules surrounding the activities in which menstruating women may participate. ...
