By using an ethnographic methodological strategy, sixteen selected Alaska Native women from different ethnic groups of different ages were interviewed, observed and “followed” on social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or Pinterest. It was found that some of these women are very dedicated users of cell phones and the social media, basically using them to communicate with their communities of origin, to keep in touch with friends and family across a nearly limitless territory, to access cultural referents on their Facebook groups, discuss issues, get rapid information, form their identity, create Blogs, access pictures as well as store and recall traditions.

Zinke made the remarks at the Interior Department as he unveiled a report by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), which detailed the extent to which the United States is dependent upon foreign competitors for its supply of certain minerals.” Seattle Times (Associated Press): Interior Dept. says US relies on China for critical minerals “The Interior Department says in a new report that the United States is reliant on China and other nations for the overwhelming majority of critical minerals used by the military and for manufacturing everything from smartphones to wind turbines and cars. The report released Tuesday by the U.S. Geological Survey says the U.S. relies on foreign sources for a majority of all but two of the 23 minerals identified as critical. The minerals are produced in China, Russia, South Africa, Brazil and other countries. Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke called the report troubling and said the reliance of imported minerals, especially by the military, poses a ‘very real national security risk.’” The Business Times (CO): Colorado gets $92 million in federal disbursements “Colorado received a total of more than $92 million in federal energy and mineral production disbursements, according to figures from the Interior Department for the 2017 fiscal year.

Freiburger, B.A. Fairbanks, Alaska August 2013 v Abstract This thesis is a combination of tape transcriptions and research to document the life history of Athabascan leader Effie Folger Kokrine. Effie Kokrine was well known in the Interior of Alaska, but her impact reached much farther, and in many directions, as she loved to travel and share her stories with people in many different states and in several other countries. Sharing stories was only one of her many talents. She was an Alaska Native culture educator, a champion dog musher, an expert seamstress, skin sewer and beader, hunter, fisher, cook and bottle washer. Effie stayed active and busy right until her sudden death from heart failure. She believed that every person should contribute to the well-being of the community, and she did her part by volunteering with the Junior Dog Musher’s Association, the American Legion Post #11 Women’s Auxiliary, the Badger Lion’s Club, and speaking to almost every group that invited her, which was many.

Gerber laintiffs’ law firm Panish, Shea & Boyle (PS&B) works relentlessly to obtain justice for their injured clients. And they have succeeded. Indeed, there have been four personal injury jury verdicts in the State of California that have exceeded $50 million.The firm’s lawyers have Pobtained three of those four. Other successes include the largest single-plaintiff personal injury verdict in California history at the time ($58 million), as well as the largest products liability personal injury verdict in U.S. history at the time ($4.9 billion). The firm’s attorneys have obtained over 15 verdicts or settlements in excess of $10 million, and over 150 in excess of $1 million. The firm’s track record increases the value of all of the firm’s cases in the eyes of insurance companies, corporations, and government entities. “I often hear stories of other lawyers getting their cases settled by threatening to bring Panish, Shea & Boyle ‘into the case’,” says The Hon. Peter Polos (Ret.), who joined the firm this year after retiring from the California bench. “Other retired Judges often inform me that our settlements get top-dollar due to the ‘Panish Premium’,” added Adam Shea, to which Polos agreed. While a Judge, Polos had watched many trial lawyers in the community, and when he was ready to step down from the bench, he “wanted to go with the best trial lawyers out there”, he said.
