Lovelock-Cave-Back-Country-Byway
Back Country Byways . An Invitation to Discover There is an axiom among seasoned travelers advising that the best way to get to know a new place is to get off the highway and visit the back roads, the side trails and the hidden, out-of-the-way corners where the true qualities wait to be discovered. The same axiom holds true for America’s public lands, the vast reaches of our nation that are all too often seen only from the windows of speeding cars or the tiny portholes of airliners. The Bureau of Land Management, America’s largest land managing agency, is providing an exciting opportunity for more Americans to get to know their lands by getting off the main roads for leisurely trips on a series of roads and trails being dedicated as Back Country Byways. The Back Country Byways Program, an outgrowth of the national Scenic Byways Program, is designed to encourage greater use of these existing back roads through greater public awareness. The system is BUREAUREAU OOFF LANDLAND MANMANAGEMENTGEMENT expected to expand to 100 roads when completed. In Nevada, each byway has a character and beauty of its own, taking travelers through scenery that is uniquely Nevadan, into historic areas that helped shape our state and near areas that have been largely untouched by man. They can see the multiple uses of their lands and come to a greater awareness of the need for the conservation and wise use of these resources. And all this can be accomplished at little cost to the taxpayer. Because the roads are already in place, only interpretive signs and limited facilities are needed to better serve the public. -
PICH Awardee Impact Statements
PICH Awardee Impact Statements Background The Partnership to Improve Community Health (PICH) initiative funded 29 communities from FY2014 through FY2017 to reduce chronic disease risk factors. Awardees implemented evidence-based policy, system, and environmental interventions to improve nutrition and physical activity, reduce tobacco use and exposure, and strengthen community-clinical linkages. PICH awardee impact statements describe the short-term impacts of the PICH initiative. These impact statements were created using data from awardee Community Action Plans, awardee Progress Reports, and census data. All data were reviewed for clarity and potential duplicate reporting. Impact statements were created during two timeframes: 2016 and 2017. Each awardee has at least two impact statements; if there were additional data, additional impact statements were developed. Fort Defiance Indian Hospital Board, Inc. (Arizona) Nutrition As of September 2017, Fort Defiance Indian Hospital Board, Inc. increased access to healthy food and beverages for an estimated 59,838 Native American residents in Arizona. PICH staff supported the development of 23 farmers’ markets. To increase interest among vendors and address the misperception that farmers’ markets are for vendors who sell surplus vegetables at a low cost, PICH staff set up trainings and recruited farmers, growers, and partners to participate. Community Health Workers (CHWs) were used to find partners, organize markets, set schedules, and get community input and support. PICH staff conducted surveys at farmers’ markets and each market included a cultural component coupled with a public health component consisting of healthy living messages, eating/eating healthy, and taking care of oneself. They also invited local health related resources to participate and they assisted with outreach, public information, educations, and demonstrations. -
An Amerind Etymological Dictionary
An Amerind Etymological Dictionary c 2007 by Merritt Ruhlen ! Printed in the United States of America Library of Congress Cataloging-in-Publication Data Greenberg, Joseph H. Ruhlen, Merritt An Amerind Etymological Dictionary Bibliography: p. Includes indexes. 1. Amerind Languages—Etymology—Classification. I. Title. P000.G0 2007 000!.012 00-00000 ISBN 0-0000-0000-0 (alk. paper) This book is dedicated to the Amerind people, the first Americans Preface The present volume is a revison, extension, and refinement of the ev- idence for the Amerind linguistic family that was initially offered in Greenberg (1987). This revision entails (1) the correction of a num- ber of forms, and the elimination of others, on the basis of criticism by specialists in various Amerind languages; (2) the consolidation of certain Amerind subgroup etymologies (given in Greenberg 1987) into Amerind etymologies; (3) the addition of many reconstructions from different levels of Amerind, based on a comprehensive database of all known reconstructions for Amerind subfamilies; and, finally, (4) the addition of a number of new Amerind etymologies presented here for the first time. I believe the present work represents an advance over the original, but it is at the same time simply one step forward on a project that will never be finished. M. R. September 2007 Contents Introduction 1 Dictionary 11 Maps 272 Classification of Amerind Languages 274 References 283 Semantic Index 296 Introduction This volume presents the lexical and grammatical evidence that defines the Amerind linguistic family. The evidence is presented in terms of 913 etymolo- gies, arranged alphabetically according to the English gloss. -
American Indian Law Journal
American Indian Law Journal Volume III, Issue II • Spring 2015 “The Spirit of Justice” by Artist Terrance Guardipee Supported by the Center for Indian Law & Policy SPIRIT OF JUSTICE Terrence Guardipee and Catherine Black Horse donated this original work of art to the Center for Indian Law and Policy in November 2012 in appreciation for the work the Center engages in on behalf of Indian and Native peoples throughout the United States, including educating and training a new generation of lawyers to carry on the struggle for justice. The piece was created by Mr. Guardipee, who is from the Blackfeet Tribe in Montana and is known all over the country and internationally for his amazing ledger map collage paintings and other works of art. He was among the very first artists to revive the ledger art tradition and in the process has made it into his own map collage concept. These works of art incorporate traditional Blackfeet images into Mr. Guardipee’s contemporary form of ledger art. He attended the Institute of American Indian Arts in Sante Fe, New Mexico. His work has won top awards at the Santa Fe Market, the Heard Museum Indian Market, and the Autrey Museum Intertribal Market Place. He also has been featured a featured artists at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, D.C., along with the Museum of Natural History in Hanover, Germany, and the Hood Museum at Dartmouth College.

INTRODUCTION This article examines the path, or trajectory,1 of Indian country in California. More precisely, it explores the origin and historical development over the last three centuries of a legal principle and practice under which a particular, protected status has been extended to land areas belonging to and occupied by indigenous peoples in what is now California. The examination shows that ever since the Spanish first established a continuing presence in California in 1769, the governing colonial regime has accorded Indian lands such status. -
Chamacoco Lexicographical Supplement I
Luca Ciucci # Chamacoco lexicographical supplement I 1 Introduction Chamacoco is a language spoken by about 1600 people, whose traditional territory stretched over the Paraguayan Chaco along the river Paraguay in the department of Alto Paraguay. Along with Ayoreo, it is the only living language of the Zamucoan family. To these languages one should add Ancient Zamuco, an extinct language spoken in the XVIII century by some Zamucoan tribes present in the Jesuit missions of Chiquitos (Bolivia). Chamacoco has two dialects: Ebitoso and Tomaraho. Here I will only refer to the Ebitoso dialect, spoken by the vast majority of the Chamacoco people.1 A research project aiming at the description of the Zamucoan family started in 2007 at Scuola Normale di Pisa under the direction of Pier Marco Bertinetto, one of its goals being a scientifically oriented Chamacoco grammar on which I am currently working (on this project, see Ciucci 2011). The purpose of the present contribution is to systematize some lexical materials collected during my fieldwork. I will only report so far non documented words or words whose complete paradigm is not provided in Ulrich & Ulrich (2000) and Ciucci (2013), with respect to which the present work should be regarded as complementary. This is intended to be the first of a series of contributions for the preparation of a scientific Chamacoco dictionary which will also include the complete paradigms reported in the quoted works. # I would like to express my gratitude to Emanuele Saiu for his useful suggestions. I am the only responsible for all mistakes or inaccuracies which the present work may contain. -
Indian Nations Law Update
Indian Nations Law Update September 2009 ■ Vol 4, Issue 9 Federal Appellate Court Rejects State Challenge to Tribe’s Off-Reservation Clean Air Act Authority In State of Michigan v. Environmental Protection Agency and Forest County Potawatomi Community, 2009 WL 2870619 (7th Cir.), the Forest County Potawatomi Community (“Tribe”) had obtained a fi nal ruling from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) designating the Tribe’s reservation in Forest County, Wisconsin, as “Class I” for purposes of the Clean Air Act, triggering stricter air quality controls on air pollution in and around the reservation, extending into the State of Michigan. The Tribe negotiated a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Wisconsin governing the exercise of the Brian L. Pierson Tribe’s Class I authority relative to off-reservation emissions. Michigan, by contrast, sued the EPA and (414) 287-9456 the Tribe, challenging the EPA’s Class I redesignation. The district court upheld EPA’s decision and the [email protected] Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals affi rmed, holding that (1) Michigan had no standing to challenge the Tribe’s Class I status based on the alleged procedural defect that a Tribal Implementation Plan had not been adopted, (2) EPA’s imposition of standard Class I emission restrictions on Michigan, stricter than those negotiated by Wisconsin under the MOU, was not retaliation from Michigan’s choice to pursue litigation, (3) the parens patriae doctrine pursuant to which states may sue to protect its citizens does not apply to suits against the United States challenging federal laws, and (4) Michigan’s purported uncertainty regarding its compliance obligations was unfounded. -

Special Report Paraguay Report 15: Soy & Cattle in Paraguay Originally Published: July 2020
Special Report Paraguay Report 15: Soy & Cattle in Paraguay Originally Published: July 2020. Updated: September 2020 1 Executive Summary This Rapid Response Special Report – updated in September 2020 (1) – highlights 5,57 8 ha of recent, potentially illegal deforestation in the Paraguayan Chaco in eleven selected cases. Eleven cases were ultimately selected (Table 1), showing 11,462 ha of deforestation between June 2019 and May 2020. Of these, 5,578 ha may have been illegal, i.e. deforestation occurred a) without a license/environmental authorization, b) in breach with the required environmental impact mitigation measures, or c) in a natural forest conservation area or protected area. Deforestation in the Chaco is largely driven by expanding cattle and soy operations, compounded by absent deforestation commitments from key operating stakeholders and loose law enforcement.
