US Approves Chicken Made from Cultivated Cells, the
Nation's First 'Lab-grown' Meat
by Jonel Aleccia & Laura
Ungar; Associated Press --
Cherokee Phoenix -- 23 JUN 2023
For the first time, U.S.
regulators on Wednesday approved the sale of chicken
made from animal cells, allowing two California
companies to offer “lab-grown” meat to the nation's
restaurant tables and eventually, supermarket shelves.
The Agriculture Department gave the green light to
Upside Foods and Good Meat, firms that had been racing
to be the first in the U.S. to sell meat that doesn't
come from slaughtered animals — what's now being
referred to as “cell-cultivated" or “cultured” meat as
it emerges from the laboratory and arrives on dinner
plates....

Enbridge Lecture at Northern Michigan College
by Sierra Clark,
Contributing Writer --
Native News Online -- 29 JUN 2023
PETOSKEY, Mich.—A
public lecture featuring transnational pipeline and
energy company Enbridge last week escalated to the
assault of an Anishinaabe water protector and allies
protesting the controversial Line 5 project.
The event, hosted by North Central Michigan College (NCMC)
in Petoskey on June 22, featured an Enbridge
representative speaking about the Great Lakes Tunnel
Project that would house a section of Line 5 under the
Straits of Mackinac....
Three videos obtained by Native News Online show
protesters being shoved around and grabbed by the shirt
collars as they tried to unfurl an “Enbridge Out! No
Line 5” banner.
In one video, NCMC President David Roland Finley is seen
struggling with a protester as he tries to rip the
banner away from the protester's hands....

Arizona Must Stop the $400B Giveaway of Groundwater to
the World’s Largest Foreign Based Mining Companies
Opinion
by San Carlos Apache Tribe Chairman Terry Rambler -- 29
JUN 2023
Opinion. A stunning loophole in Arizona’s water laws has
left the state powerless to address a groundwater crisis
rapidly unfolding in the Phoenix metropolitan region.
To pass the seminal Groundwater Management Act of 1980,
state politicians exempted the powerful mining industry
from restrictions on how much water mines can pump. That
decision is now colliding with the stark reality that
Arizona is facing an economically devastating deficit in
groundwater supplies.
The 1980 law allows mines to pump unlimited groundwater
without paying the state a dime. Based on current water
prices, Arizona is poised to give away $400 billion
worth of diminishing groundwater to the two largest
foreign-owned mining companies in the world that plan to
construct the Resolution Copper Mine 70 miles east of
Phoenix....

The Supreme Court Leaves Indian Child Welfare Act Intact
by Nina Totenberg, Meghanlata Gupta - NPR
- 15 JUN 2023
Heard on "All
Things Considered"
In a major victory for Native American rights, the U.S. Supreme
Court on Thursday upheld key provisions of the Indian Child Welfare
Act, a law enacted 45 years ago to remedy decades of past government
abuse.
By a 7-2 vote, the court ruled that the law does not impermissibly
impose a federal mandate on traditionally state-regulated areas of
power.....

The Supreme Court
ruled in our favor, agreeing that Native children should remain in

This Time It’s Different? The Rush to Mine Indigenous
Lands
The Aspen Institute: The mining industry has a long
history of failing to respect community interests,
breaking agreements, destroying sacred sites, and
forcing displacements. Indigenous communities have been
‘disproportionately impacted’
by Mark Trahant --
Indian
Country Today -- JUN 2023
WASHINGTON – This won’t be an easy conversation: Can
tribal nations love mining? Or at least accept mining as
a necessary step in the creation of a clean economy? And
can governments and international mining companies
figure out how to respect and work fairly with
Indigenous communities?...

A Word About Brenda
Norrell and Censored News
Al Swilling, SENAA International - 14 FEB 2015
For those wondering why many of the shared
posts on SENAA International's Web site and Facebook page are from
Brenda Norrell's Censored News, it's very simple—and very complex. For
many years, Brenda Norrell was a major journalist for (forgive me,
Brenda) Indian Country Today (ICT) until they censored Brenda's articles
and terminated her without cause. After leaving Indian Country Today,
Brenda created the appropriately
named
Censored News.
While at
ICT, Brenda was a voice for the Dineh (Navajo) people at
Black Mesa, Arizona, where bed partners Peabody Coal and the BIA were trying to
forcibly remove Dineh residents from their ancestral homes in order to
strip mine the land of its coal. That greed took the form of a
contrived, fictional "land dispute" between Dineh' and Hopi....

Censored
News by Journalist & Publisher Brenda Norrell
Censored News - 12 FEB 2015
Censored News was created in 2006 after staff reporter Brenda
Norrell was censored repeatedly, then terminated by Indian Country
Today. Now in its 9th year, with 3.7 million page views around the
world, Censored News is published with no advertising, grants or
sponsors.
Today, Censored News maintains a boycott of Indian Country Today,
whose reporters have relied on plagiarism of others' hard work for
years, instead of being present to cover news stories. Now, with a
collective of writers, Censored News focuses on Indigenous Peoples and
human rights.

TUTORIAL
LSO MANAGEMENT: What They Are
and What to Do About Them
SENAA International - 16 FEB 2010
Introduction
The computing public is becoming increasingly aware
of the existence of Local Shared Objects (LSOs),
also called "Flash cookies" or "Persistent
Identification Elements" (PIEs), the dangers they
pose, and the unethical ways that they are placed on
our machines. LSOs are the busybodies of the
Internet, sticking their
noses in your personal
business at every opportunity without
your knowledge or consent; and like most
busybodies, they're being found out. |
|
With growing public awareness of LSOs comes a growing
demand for effective, real time control of them. Most
LSO management solutions offer management or deletion of
LSOs after potentially malicious ones have had time to
do their damage. Stand-alone LSO management utilities do
not offer real time protection, either. This tutorial
provides real-time management of LSOs.... (click
