+ u -. I COMMISSION Valentino Jack, Tribal Chairman Big Valley Rancheria of Pomo 1ndians P.O. Box 955 Lakeport, California 95453 Dear Chairman Jack: This letter responds to your request to review and approve the tribal gaming ordinance adopted by the Big Valley Rancheria of Pomo Indians (the Tribe) on March 12, 1994. This letter constitutes such approval under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA) . Under the IGRA and the regulations of the National Indian Gaming omm mission (NIGC), the Chairman is directed to review ordinances with respect to the requirements of the IGRA and the implementing regulations. Thus, the scope of the Chairman's review and approval is limited to the requirements of the IGRA and the NIGC regulations. Provisions other than those required under the IGRA or the NIGC regulations that may be included in a tribal ordinance are not subject to review and approval. Also, such approval does not constitute approval of specific games. It is important to note that the gaming ordinance is approved for gaming only on Indian lands as defined in the IGRA. With the Chairman's approval of the Tribe's gaming ordinance, the Tribe is now required to conduct background investigations on its key employees and primary management officials. The NIGC expects to receive a completed application for each key employee and primary management official pursuant to 25 C.F.R. S 556.5(a) and an investigative report on each background investigation before issuing a license to a key employee or primary management official pursuant to 25 C.F.R. S 556.5(b). -

The Otoe-Missouria Flag Song
Kansas Working Papers in Linguistics, Vol. 30 (2008), p. 98 The Otoe-Missouria Flag Song Jill D. Greer Social Science Department, Missouri Southern State University Introduction As the title suggests, the focus of this paper is upon a single important song within the Otoe- Missouria tribe. This is a preliminary sketch, or a truly working paper as the KU publication series denotes. In subject and approach, it has been inspired by the venerable tradition of collecting, preserving, and analyzing Native American texts begun with 19th century BAE ethnographers such as James Owen Dorsey, encouraged by Franz Boas and his Americanist students, and celebrated by more recent scholars of verbal art as Hymes, Tedlock, Sherzer, and Basso. The particular esthetic principles used in the text will link it clearly to other tribal songs, and to the performance context as well. I will also raise issues of cultural change and continuity in the context of language shift, and finally, I argue that this Flag Song compellingly demonstrates the value of maintaining a heritage language within endangered and obsolescent language communities.1 By a heritage language, I mean a language which may no longer exist as an “everyday spoken medium of communication” but which may persist in special settings, such as the realm of sacred language in songs and prayer.2 The Western tradition has the familiar example of Latin preserved by use in the Church and as the common written language of scholars, but unlike Latin, the majority of Native languages were not represented in written form by their respective speech communities.3 The numerous circumstances leading to language shift within the Otoe- Missouria community have been similar to that documented elsewhere for the First Nations peoples in the U.S., and it is beyond the scope of this paper to review that tragic process in detail. -
October 2009 Issue
Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma Chaticks si Chaticks PRSRT STD P.O. Box 470 U.S. POSTAGE Pawnee, OK 74058 PAID PERMIT NO. 43 RETURN SERVICE REQUESTED PAWNEE, OK 74058 Page 2 Chaticks si Chaticks -October 2009- Message from the President Dear Pawnee Tribal Members: Take a look at the building going up at the Pawnee Nation Travel Plaza! Many have told me that as they drive by and see the structure developing, they feel proud. At long last the Pawnee Nation is stepping into the competitive arena of the casino and gaming business. Like it or not, the casino business for many American Indian tribes across the country has provided an economic advantage. We have lost three (3) years, plus $300,000,000 in the debacle of a few years. We had to work hard to prove our mettle to now skeptical lending agencies that we are an internally and structurally sound tribal organization of note. We are Pawnee and can make this business and its resulting products work to our advantage. We recognize the efforts of every member of the Tribal Development Cooperation (TDC) on this project. Each person on TDC had a hand in making this project a reality. This effort is a result of dogged TDC teamwork. My only regret at this point is that Les Hand, late Pawnee Business Council Treasurer, is not here to see the fruit of his work while on TDC. He is not here, but he sees it. The structure being built is 10,000 square feet and will accommodate 200 gaming machines and a 70 seating capacity steak house.
