TEMPE, Ariz., Aug. 8, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Valerie Spicer, Executive Director of the Arizona Indian Gaming Association (AIGA), announced today that Tribal Gaming has contributed more than $1 billion in shared Tribal gaming revenues to Arizona over the past 11 years. The historic achievement was recorded in the first quarter of FY 2015, according to the Arizona Department of Gaming. Tribal gaming revenue directly supports Arizona public and charter schools, trauma and emergency services, economic development through tourism, wildlife conservation, and cities and towns throughout the state.
"In 2002, when the Tribal leaders envisioned how to share gaming revenues, they wanted to provide not only for their own people, but for everyone who calls our state home," said Spicer. "Our culture teaches us to give back and help others. Through their wisdom the Leadership developed the Arizona Benefits Fund."
Records published by the Arizona Department of Gaming show that Tribal contributions have continued, uninterrupted, even during the worst of the Great Recession. The first recorded year of funding is FY 2004. Since that year, Tribal gaming has contributed nearly $430 million directly to Arizona's school districts to support students and teachers, and approximately $215 million to more than 64 hospitals in Arizona to provide emergency and trauma services. Tourism and wildlife conservation have each received about $61.5 million, and cities and towns have received nearly $105 million. According to Peter Rhee, M.D., Chief, Division of Trauma, Critical Care, Burn and Emergency Services, UA Department of Surgery, the trauma center in Tucson would not be where it is today without the money made available by Tribal Gaming dollars for trauma and ER services.
"Shared gaming funds have provided a consistent and much needed source of revenue for Arizona," said Sherry Cordova, Chairwoman of the Cocopah Tribe, who was a member of the Prop 202 AIGA Leadership. "It is remarkable to realize that Tribes have been able to give back more than $1 billion to our state. The Arizona Benefits Fund and Tribal Gaming have been more impactful than any of us could have imagined."
In addition to its impact through sharing revenues, Tribal gaming is a proven economic engine for the State. A statewide economic impact study of Indian gaming, commissioned by AIGA in 2012, verified that more than 15,000 people were directly employed in Indian gaming in Arizona and, when indirect jobs were added, that number exceeded 22,000. Jonathan B. Taylor, author of the study, concluded that if tracked by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Tribal gaming in Arizona would rank above Mining and Logging, making it the third largest industry sector in the State.
Tribal gaming is working for Tribes by creating positive and lasting impacts that benefit current members and future generations. Gaming is a major source of employment for non-Tribal and Tribal people alike, especially in rural areas of the state where economic opportunities are limited. Because of gaming dollars, Tribal governments are addressing chronic reservation deficits in education, health, housing, public safety and infrastructure. Tribal gaming also benefits Tribes who don't engage in gaming through the negotiation of transfer agreements which provide much-needed revenue to fund those governments.
"While the purpose of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act is to promote economic development and opportunities to increase self-sufficiency for the Tribes, the State also benefits from Tribal contributions that fund important programs," said Dan Bergin, director of the Arizona Department of Gaming. "Passing the $1 billion threshold in contributions to Arizona is quite an achievement, and we congratulate the Tribes on reaching this milestone."
Concluded Spicer, "Reaching the $1 billion mark is clearly significant; sharing revenues sets our industry apart. Arizonans who need trauma care or have children in school, own businesses that rely on tourism, or revel in the natural beauty of our state, all benefit directly from Tribal gaming. It's why we say, 'It's the Tribal in Tribal Gaming that makes the difference.'"
The Arizona Indian Gaming Association has a membership of 18 tribes representing more than 90% of the Indian people living on reservations in Arizona. Current membership includes: Ak-Chin Indian Community, Cocopah Indian Tribe, Colorado River Indian Tribes, Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation, Fort Mojave Tribe, Fort Yuma Quechan Tribe, Gila River Indian Community, Havasupai Tribe, Hualapai Tribe, Kaibab-Paiute Tribe, Navajo Nation, Pascua Yaqui Tribe, Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community, San Carlos Apache Tribe, Tohono O'odham Nation, White Mountain Apache Tribe, Yavapai-Apache Nation and Pueblo of Zuni.

Jane Carver, a hell-raising, redheaded biker chick from Coral Gables, Florida, had found a new life and love on Waar, a savage planet of fearsome creatures and swashbuckling warriors. Until the planet's high priests sent her back to Earth against her will.
But nobody keeps Jane from her man, even if he happens to be a purple-skinned alien nobleman.
Against all odds, she returns to Waar, only to find herself accused of kidnapping the Emperor's beautiful daughter. Allying herself with a band of notorious sky-pirates, Jane sets out to clear her name and rescue the princess, but that means uncovering the secret origins of the Gods of Waarand picking a fight with the Wargod himself.
Good thing Jane is always up for a scrap . . .
Swords of Waar is the wildly entertaining sequel to Jane Carver of Waar, and continues the raucous adventures of science fiction's newest and most bad ass space heroine.

This is a great follow up to "Jane Carver Of Waar." Lots of action and smart ass commentary from Jane. But what I really like is the growth and changing dynamics of Jane and Lhan's relationship. There are some incredibly tender moments between the two. And even when he is being a stubborn putz and an ass, Lhan is pretty damn lovable. Makes me wish that I had my own little purple dude to love on!! I cannot wait for the next installment in what is turning into a quirky and favorite series for me.
I am so glad that the first tale, Jane Carver of Waar was a free Friday selection otherwise I never would have given this sseries a try. Are two books enough to be a series? Anyway, the plots were fast and the characters enjoyable. Not a"chick book" but definity a story that will appeal to both genders. I certainly hope there is a triagy.
Awesome sequel, as fast and fun as the first book. Hoping that there will be one more installment. Jane develops as a character along with her relationship. The rest of the cast receive some more character depth while being fun entertaining.
B & N doesn't allow me to use the three letter word that ends in _ _ x, but this book just has way too much of it. I thought the first book was a very, very good read, but this one just didn't quite cut it. Would I read another one of Nathan Long's, sure!
This book has nearly everything : Pirates , airships , blood sports , even evil priests. More action beginning early on and lasting to the very end . You won't get bored with this book , I'm sure of it . Jfr ?
Good read I couldn't put it down.
Good, but not quite as good as book one

Rumble in the jungle: Dramatic photos show testosterone-fuelled elephant flipping over black rhino as she protects her calf
- Large male elephant attacked female rhino which was protecting its calf
- It charged at the rhino and flipped it onto its back, leaving its legs in the air
- Continued to roll the defenceless animal around and crush it with its weight
- Rhino managed to get back up, but sadly died from its injuries days later
- Stunning images captured by amateur photographer Louis Kok and his wife
They are two giants of the animal kingdom, but that did not stop this male elephant and black rhino from clashing dramatically in a fearsome fight at a park in Africa.
Amateur photographer Louis Kok and his wife Marthie captured these extraordinary photographs of the large elephant attacking the female rhino - flipping it into its back and leaving it with its legs in the air.
The couple from Pretoria, South Africa, were photographing a rhino cow and her calf when the testosterone-fuelled, one-tusked elephant approached.
Scroll down for video
Tossed and turned: The large male elephant charges at the female rhino and flips it onto its side
Relentless: The testosterone-fuelled beast lays into the mother rhino, who was protecting her calf
African assault: The one-tusked elephant attacks the rhino with its truck as it lies injured in the dust
Protective mother: The rhino was attacked while trying to protect her calf from the rampaging elephant
The pair were stunned to watch the peaceful scene transform into a brutal battle as the bull elephant charged at the protective rhino mother.
Mr Kok said: 'Male elephants on musth, fuelled by exorbitant levels of testosterone, are extremely dangerous, and will attack anything which stands in their path.'
Musth is a condition during which bull elephants experience a huge rise in reproductive hormones - testosterone levels can reach up to 60 times higher than normal - and this makes them extremely aggressive.
Stunned: Amateur photographer Louis Kok and his wife Marthie did not expect the fight to break out
Immobilised: The helpless rhino is left prostrate, lying on its back after the elephant's brutal attack
Cowering: The rhino calf watches on, hiding in the shrubs as the elephant attacks its mother
Baby blues: The calf emerges in search of its mother as the elephant peers on it the background
'The elephant immediately toppled the rhino which landed helplessly on its back with its legs in the air,' Mr Kok continued.
'The elephant kept rolling the defenceless rhino around in the dust, while crushing it repeatedly under its enormous weight - in a traumatising display of speed, agility and brutal power.'
After the fight the rhino's calf rushed to its injured mother's side.
'The calf remained in the vicinity for some time, circling her mother and attempting repeatedly to help her up,' Mr Kok said.
I love you mum! The baby rhino rushes to its mother's side once the scene is safe and the elephant has gone
Caring child: The calf tends to its mother, which lies on the ground, groaning in pain from her injuries
Heartbreaking: The mother managed to get up after around two hours, but died days later from her injuries
Scientific name: Loxodonta africana
Height: 11 feet
Length: 19-24 feet
Weight: 6 tons
Status: Vulnerable
Habitats: Grasslands and forests
Scientific name: Diceros bicornis
Height: 5.2 feet
Length: 10 feet
Weight: 1,760-3,080lb
Status: Critically endangered
Habitats: Grasslands and deserts
The pair reported the incident to the management of the park, who said that the rhino did miraculously manage to get up around two hours after the attack.
The following day she was spotted about 300 metres from the scene of the fight, but unfortunately died a few days later from her injuries.
The couple were requested not to identify the park to prevent the influx of poachers into the area.

Trumpeter Kirk Knuffke in a NY trio with clarinetist Doug Wieselman and drummer Kenny Wollesen, all part of Butch Morris' Nublu Orchestra and frequent Zorn collaborators.
Knuffke, Kirk Trio
Amnesia Brown
Label: Clean Feed
Released in: Portugal
"Few musicians have been as enthusiastically and unanimously applauded with a debut recording as trumpeter Kirk Knuffke with his CD "Big Wig" (Clean Feed). Now he returns with a second opus, in partnership with two musicians with whom he has been associated for some years, Doug Wieselman (clarinet, guitar) and Kenny Wollesen (drums). Like Knuffke, both are members of the Nublu Orchestra conducted by Butch Morris and Wollesen is a frequent John Zorn collaborator and leader of several bands that include Knuffke. Again, we can expect Knuffke will be a sensation: this is wonderful music and often times surprising. There is much more to hear in this collection of tracks than the free bop style often identified with the present day New York scene. The album itself does not suffer from any kind of amnesia - here, the musical past is well remembered and presented in a new and outstanding way. The title of the album refers only to a family episode. "Amnesia Brown" is the nickname given by Knuffke's mother to his great grandfather, who disappeared and was found some years later in another city with another surname, Brown, a new family and claimed no memory of the past."-Clean Feed

Lee DeWyze's Debut Single 'Sweet Serendipity' Arrives
A fresh song called "Sweet Serendipity" has officially been made available for free stream. It's the first single from Lee DeWyze's upcoming major-label debut album "Live It Up" and was posted on his official website shortly after getting its first airplay on Ryan Seacrest's radio show on October 13.
"I'm doing just fine/ I'm always landing on my feet/ In the nic of time/ And by the skin of my teeth/ I ain't gonna stress/ Cause the worst ain't happened yet/ Somethings watching over me like Sweet Serendipity," the 2010 winner of "American Idol" sings in optimistic tone.
"Sweet Serendipity" actually was not the first choice for a lead single. DeWyze previously planned to release title track of his forthcoming album, but changed it few hours before the release. "There is change of plans with the single...we're holding off on Live It Up and going to go with one no one has heard...Sweet Serendipity," he wrote on Twitter on early Wednesday morning.
In an interview with Seacrest, DeWyze explained why he changed his mind, saying he felt that "Sweet Serendipity" is the one that stood out the most and the fun vibes in it can make people dance to or sing along with. According to some people who have heard "Live It Up" and "Sweet Serendipity", both songs actually have similar vibes with the "Jason Mraz vein."

Future vision for Cardiff unveiled

A new vision for developing Cardiff is being unveiled to business leaders today.
Cardiff Council's cabinet member for business has defended the city's multi million plans for the future of the capital. Russell Goodway said that the plans unveilled today would put Cardiff in a position that when the economy recovers would mean that the city can "take advantage of that growth."
The councillor said that "smart cities invest in infrastructure, invest in the training and skills of their populations so when businesses start to decide where they are going to locate they will go to those locations where there is an infrastructure that will support the development."

According to an August 16 report from Reuters, crude oil freight rates on major routes were mixed on Monday with the Middle East Gulf market hitting its highest in a month due to better cargo activity and tighter vessel availability as owners held back ships. The world's benchmark Very Large Crude Carrier (VLCC) export route from the Middle East Gulf to Japan DFRT-ME-JAP was at $21,809 a day, up from $6,185 a day last week and at the highest since mid July.

Loders Croklaan Sourcing More Sustainable Palm Oil
IOI Loders Croklaan surpassed its 2013 goal and imported and marketed 348.000 tons of sustainable palm oil in Europe. That is 34 percent of the total volume sold by the company in 2013.
The company said its 2013 goal was to increase the volume of certified sustainable palm oil to 30 percent of European sales.
The company says it expects to continue to increase its supplies of Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) certified palm oil in 2014. New European labelling legislation effective in 2015 and a growing demand for traceable supply chains are other key factors, according to the company.
IOI Loders Croklaan sustainable palm oil is primarily produced by its parent company, IOI Group in Malaysia, one of the founding members of the (RSPO). Global efforts to source sustainable palm oil are on the rise.

Report Abuse
I found the Paris2Go app to be very helpful, specifically the map - it's downloaded to your phone, so no data required, and the GPS will find you on it.
Report Abuse
I Paris metro map is very helpful. You can view a map of the entire system as well as plan a trip from point A to B with suggestions for which lines and transfers to use. Also provides system service alerts which we found to be helpful when there s a transit strike.
Report Abuse
This is the metro app I used from Presslite for 99 cents:
The http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/metro-paris-subway/id297404959?mt=8
Report Abuse
I like the suggestions for the Paris2Go app and the Metro maps. Does anyone have any other suggestions? I found the below on another forum but its about two years old. Anyone use any of these and have an opinion?
-- "Collins Pro French-English Translation Dictionary"
-- "Shazam" Music App
-- "Around Me" Tells you what services like banks, restaurants, etc. that are around you.
Report Abuse
Fodors has a free one for Paris:
Report Abuse
I use Shazam, but I don't really think it has anything to do with Paris! It listens to whatever recorded music is being played (car stereo, store PA, whatever) and tells you what song it is. You have to be connected to data to use it, via wifi or 3G.
Report Abuse
Patricia Wells has an app for her "Food Lovers Guide to Paris". it has restaurant, cafe, patisserie, and all sorts of food recommendations as well as a food glossary, to help with menu recommendations.
TimeOut has a free Paris app.
Do those metro apps also include bus routes? I'd really like an app with both, train and bus on it.

Hi China Cat - Yes
The presselite "Paris Metro" link I included above has all three included: 1) Metro 2) RER and 3) Bus

FYI - I looked again at my app - and while the bus line routes and numbers are there -it looks like there is another "in app" 99 cent purchase to get full bus line info intergrated into the app.

I've had luck with "Escargo" which helps translate menu items from French to English. The metro map in Fodor's guide is really all you need IF you know how to read a subway map. Busses are a different problem though, so I'll check out the apps that include busses. Thanks

Just got back from Paris. I very highly recommend leaving your IPhone in your hotel safe. There currently is a highly mobilzed force of teen gypsies distributed all over tourist areas and subway exits scanning pockets for IPhones and pulling lots of other scams. It is a huge problem. Paris police have turned their backs on the problem. Read the other threads on the subject for recent personal experiences. Maybe take a cheap IPOD Touch instead.

Javafan, i live in Paris and never was robbed. You just have to pay attention : don't use your phone in crowded metro stations or areas. Put it deep in your pocket and put you hands over it when you are entering subway or in queues.
For the best apps in Paris, i would recommend Paris 2GO, Metro Paris Subway but also Hidden Paris, a nice one to discover interesting places.
Check this list of iPhone apps for Paris, i think it will be useful for you :

Paris-ci is not only a metro map and trip planner but will also tell you which car to ride in and which exit to use for a specific destination...

Commissioner tells ILGA that gays are denied "core human rights"

Well said, Thomas Hammarberg!
There are member nations of the EU which agree in principle to ensuring core human rights are granted to their LGBTI citizens but which have not in practice granted those human rights to their LGBTI citizens. Sadly, Greece is one such member nation. In Greece fleeting gay pecs on the cheek are removed from television programmes, and stations which allow such scenes to be broadcast are fined. The atmosphere is such that LGBTIs in Greece are forced to live in what amounts to an underworld. Equal Marriage is not even on the Greek government's agenda. And yet billions have been loaned to Greece by the EU to try and save this member nation from financial collapse. Why does the EU not DEMAND that Greece actually DEMONSTRATES its agreement to core human rights principles?
