(AP) - This undated screen grab provided by Mike Trang shows a warning message on the screen of Trang's iPhone that he received from AT&T advising he was in danger of having his data speeds throttled. AT&T considers Trang to be among the top 5 percent of the heaviest cellular data users in his area. Under a new policy, AT&T has started cutting their data speeds as part of an attempt to manage data usage on its network. (AP Photo/courtesy of Mike Trang)

(AP) - ADDS INFORMATION THAT ONE OF THE PEOPLE SHOWN IS NOT GOING ON TRIAL --This combo of eight photos provided by the U.S. Marshals Service on Monday March 29, 2010 shows from top left, David Brian Stone Sr., 44, of Clayton, Mich,; David Brian Stone Jr. of Adrian, Mich,; Jacob Ward, 33, of Huron, Ohio; Tina Mae Stone and bottom row from left, Michael David Meeks, 40, of Manchester, Mich,; Kristopher T. Sickles, 27, of Sandusky, Ohio; Joshua John Clough, 28, of Blissfield, Mich.; and Thomas William Piatek, 46, of Whiting, Ind., suspects tied to Hutaree, a Christian militia. Jury selection is getting under way in Detroit federal court Tuesday, Feb. 7, 2012, nearly two years after the dramatic arrest of people who authorities say belonged to a southern Michigan militia with a goal of rebelling against the government. The trial is expected to last weeks. It involves seven of the nine people charged with belonging to a group called Hutaree. The government says they conspired to try to kill a police officer and plotted further strikes. No one was ever attacked, and the defendants say they're being prosecuted for saying stupid things. Joshua Clough, bottom row second from right, is the only defendant to make a deal with prosecutors and could be called as a witness to testify against the Hutaree. (AP Photo/U.S. Marshall)

Campbell, center, stand with cousin and fellow property owner Bill Zackuse next to their family-owned, 56-acre parcel of land on the Tulalip Tribes Reservation, near Marysville, Wash. The parcel in the 22,000-acre Western Washington reservation had been left behind by the Campbell's grandmother, a tribal member who went by the white name of Katrina Jim and had been an allottee in a land agreement signed by the federal government in 1904. But the Campbells and other landowners in the group are now in a dispute over the land with their own tribe and the federal government, saying the tribal council and the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs purposefully devalued the land and then offered a quick, below market cash value to the 50-plus shareholders and got enough sellers to gain a majority ownership.

(AP) - In this Feb. 10, 2012 photo, Walt Campbell, left, and his brother John T. Campbell walk on their family-owned, 56-acre parcel of land on the Tulalip Tribes Reservation, near Marysville, Wash. The parcel in the 22,000-acre Western Washington reservation had been left behind by the Campbell's grandmother, a tribal member who went by the white name of Katrina Jim and had been an allottee in a land agreement signed by the federal government in 1904, when the reservation had about 450 people. But the Campbells and other landowners in the group are now in a dispute over the land with their own tribe and the federal government, saying the tribal council and the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs purposefully devalued the land and then offered a quick, below market cash value to the 50-plus shareholders and got enough sellers to gain a majority ownership.

(AP) - In this Feb. 10, 2012 photo, John T. Campbell, left, and his brother Walt Campbell hold old family photos that include their grandmother as they stand across from their family-owned, 56-acre parcel of land on the Tulalip Tribes Reservation, near Marysville, Wash. The parcel in the 22,000-acre Western Washington reservation had been left behind by the Campbell's grandmother, a tribal member who went by the white name of Katrina Jim and had been an allottee in a land agreement signed by the federal government in 1904, when the reservation had about 450 people.

(AP) - FILE - In this Jan. 13, 2010 file photo, two young wild horses play while grazing in Reno, Nev .Wild horse protection advocates are again accusing the U.S. Bureau of Land Management of stacking a public advisory board with friends of the sheep and cattle ranching industry at the expense of free-roaming mustangs, warning that the makeup of the panel is increasingly sympathetic to the idea of slaughtering excess animals in overpopulated herds. But the BLM denies the charges and is fighting back in uncharacteristically strong terms, saying the activists have crossed a line by resorting to dishonest scare tactics and evoking 'apocalypse-now, sky-is-falling rhetoric' to help push their 'anti-management agenda by any means possible.'
