Huey`s Hut Rod
The "Weird-Oh's" kits were designed by Bill Campbell, and were originally released by Hawk in the sixties.
These comical kits featured bug eyed, big toothed monsters, crazed race car drivers, wacky beach bums, and far out rock and rollers.
This one is made by LINDBERG from the original HAWK vintage molds.
All parts sprayed with Spray can, flat black, then hand painted in enamels and acrylics, and I dry brushed a lot...
This was a fun little kit, mostly boxstock, although the nice thing about these kits is the creative freedom, the only thing that's changed is the shifter, the hat, hair & added fuel line.
Hope, you like it.

Mistery gift
This wild story begins one lovely morning as any other morning on our farm. We were fairly known dogbreeders in the area. Right next to the house was a barn where all the dogs were kept. The shining sun bathes my naked body as I wake from my slumber, I skip to the shower, try myself and head downstairs to get some breakfast.

Ski Utah 'not concerned' about marijuana legalization in Colorado
Tom Smart, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — The legalization of marijuana by voters in Colorado created a brief buzz Wednesday among the people who promote The Greatest Snow on Earth.
"We kind of keep an eye on everything Colorado does," said Ski Utah communications director Susie English when asked about the passage of Amendment 64.
"The topic came up quickly" Wednesday morning during a monthly marketing meeting attended by representatives from all of Utah's ski resorts, English said.
"(Amendment 64) definitely was, you know, on our forethought because Colorado is one of the biggest ski destinations and one of our biggest competitors," she said.
Ski Utah has battled long-standing public perception that Utah's liquor laws prohibit out-of-state visitors from having a good time. Recent changes to those laws have been heralded by the industry group, English said.
"Our industry is always trying to make people realize that it is easy to get a drink here and have a good vacation," she said.
Now, Colorado has become one of the first states to allow marijuana for recreational use. While ballot measures there and in Washington earned support Tuesday from broad swaths of the electorate, they are likely to face resistance from federal drug warriors. As of Wednesday, authorities did not say whether they would challenge the new laws.
Pot advocates say a fight is exactly what they want.
"I think we are at a tipping point on marijuana policy," said Brian Vicente, co-author of Colorado's marijuana measure. "We are going to see whether marijuana prohibition survives or whether we should try a new and more sensible approach."
Soon after the measures passed, cheering people poured out of bars in Denver, the tangy scent of pot filling the air, and others in Seattle lit up in celebration.
Authorities in Colorado, however, urged caution.
"Federal law still says marijuana is an illegal drug, so don't break out the Cheetos or Goldfish too quickly," said Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper, who opposed the measure.
As the initial celebration dies down and the process to implement the laws progresses over the next year, other states and countries will be watching to see if the measures can both help reduce money going to drug cartels and raise it for governments.
Both measures call for the drug to be heavily taxed, with the profits headed to state coffers. Colorado would devote the potential tax revenue first to school construction, while Washington's sends pot taxes to an array of health programs.
Estimates vary widely on how much they would raise. Colorado officials anticipate somewhere between $5 million and $22 million a year. Washington analysts estimated legal pot could produce nearly $2 billion over five years.
Both measures remove criminal penalties for adults over 21 possessing small amounts of the drug — the boldest rejection of pot prohibition laws passed across the country in the 1930s.
Pot has come a long way since. In the 1960s, it was a counterculture fixture. In 1971, President Richard Nixon declared the war on drugs. Twenty-five years later, California approved medical marijuana. Now, 17 states and Washington, D.C., allow it.
On Tuesday night, broad sections of the electorate in Colorado and Washington backed the measures, some because they thought the drug war had failed and others because they viewed potential revenue as a boon for their states in lean times. A similar measure in Oregon failed.
"I was not surprised in the least that Amendment 64 was passed," said Taylor Stratton, a BYU student.

In November 2008 ECNL published a brochure in Azerbaijani on "Citizen Participation in Legislative Processes". The brochure was originally prepared and published in Croatian under the auspices the Government of Croatia Office for Collaboration with CSOs with the financial support provided by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). This material was translated into Azerbaijani with the financial assistance of the European Union under the project "Strengthening the Legal Framework for Citizen Action through Freedom of Association," implemented by the European Center for Not-for-Profit Law.
The brochure provides an overview of European best practices in the field of public participation in policy-making. It discusses models of citizen participation in the European countries, as well as the framework thereof at the European Union (EU) level. The brochure seeks to provide general information on the topic to key stakeholders (government officials, policy makers, CSOs, and academics) involved in shaping and implementation of instruments governing citizen participation. It does not provide a detailed account of frameworks and practices in various countries, but rather outlines major features and challenges.
The brochure was published on the eve of the Conference titled "Citizen Participation in Public Policies: Why Does It Matter?" The Conference took place in Baku, Azerbaijan, on November 24, 2008. Copies of the brochure were distributed among the Conference participants and will also be shared with local stakeholders, such as CSOs, local authorities, governmental offices and donor organizations.
For the text of the brochure in English and Azerbaijani, please, see the below documents.
ECNL's work in Azerbaijan is supported under the project "Strengthening the Legal Framewok for Citizen Action", financed by the European Initiative for Democracy and Human Rights (EIDHR).
ECNL Director highlights importance of civil society & steps to enhance freedoms at OSCE ODIHR HDIMECNL Executive Director, Mrs. Katerina Hadzi-Miceva Evans was invited to deliver an introductory speech at the 2014 Human Dimension Implementation Meeting (HDIM), Europe\'s largest annual human rights and democracy conference which is organized every year by the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR).
As an introducer of the 3rd working session on freedom of peaceful assembly and association on 23rd September 2014 she was talking about the importance of civil society, trend of increasing restrictions on civil society on national level all over the word and outlined examples how the enjoyment of the freedoms of association and assembly can be enhanced.

Gone are the days of working 9 til 5. With so many new businesses starting up every day and many choosing to work from home, the hours we spend working has evolved. Some are night owls. Some are morning sparrows. Read more
These days I work at night, on weekends or whenever a creative lightening bolt strikes. I know I work better in the morning – this is when my brain is juicy with ideas. Choosing to work my own hours means means I can also take time during the day to do the things I love; chit chat with my dogs (it's a very one sided conversation), purchase wine online and rehearse for the next season of The Voice.
You have to work when the creativity strikes.
It's 8.56am and I'm working. Normally I'd be putting my 2nd load of washing on before heading to Harris Farm for some fresh fruit & veg. But the house is quiet and my creative juices are a flowing as I finalise a project for a new client. So the decision was made to switch on my computer and get to work… and I'm OK with that.
I'm not going to feel guilty about working when I shouldn't be.
I'm not going to feel guilty about not working when I should be.
The permission has been granted to just go with the flow. Or should I re-phrase and say the creative flow. This is why I'm mentioning the word 'work' as I type this on a Saturday morning.
It's OK to be flexible. It's OK to be fierce. It's OK to take naps. It's OK to go with the flow.

Named after its spot in the shadow of the Santa Anita Racetrack, One Hundred to One evens the odds with a no-frills selection of beers and spirits. Float toward camaraderie-laden coves borne on the sudsy currents of Budweiser, Amber Bock, or Shock Top draught pitchers (starting at $7.50). Or listen for the sound of ocean waves and subliminal messages from Sting by putting your mouth and ear to international bottles ($4.25), including Stella Artois, Hoegaarden, and Dos Equis. Parched partiers can also place their fermented fate in the hands of one of One Hundred to One's merrymaking mixologists, sating thirsts with cocktails constructed of blithe spirits including Belvedere ($6.75), Crown Royal ($5.75), and Bombay Sapphire ($5.75).
In 2004, four friends who happened to be bowling aficionados lamented the absence of a nearby bowling center. Rather than complain, petition, or stage a protest that involved a cosmic-bowl laser show on the mayor's front yard at 3 a.m., they simply opened their own. Thus Action Lanes was born out of need, but its 32 lanes transcend necessity and border on luxury. To wit, players keep track of each roll on animated scoreboards while jamming to the beat of tunes playing on the sound system. This modern bowling center features all the amenities?a pro shop for gear, a snack bar for eats, and a sports bar to celebrate a win or lament a loss with a drink and a toast. Action Lanes also houses an arcade and separate rooms that can accommodate parties and events.
Bowlers lounge at the end of 22 glossy lanes that stretch across the floor at All Star Lanes. Each lane tracks their games with the automatic scorers, meaning players can leave their abaci at home. Post-frame, bowlers can head to the lounge for drinks and snacks while watching games displayed on nine televisions. Those seeking sit-down sustenance relax in the on-site restaurant, which serves hearty American, Chinese, and Mexican dishes. All Star Lanes was also recently featured in Pharrell Williams' music video for "Happy", a 24-hour music video in which he dances through the bowling alley at 11 p.m.
Sardo's pacifies yelping stomachs with a menu of delectably pubbish fare while fostering intradiner friendliness with a suite of entertaining distractions. Guests can feel free to feast eyes on sports-related imagery projected on one of seven large-screen LCD TVs, or donate their pipes to the restaurant's award-winning karaoke. The appetizer platter, like the feel-good final scenes of cafeteria coming-of-age films, lets its popular chicken tenders go to prom with nerdy yet attractive mozzarella sticks and onion rings ($8). Meanwhile, the lunch menu features a hearty sandwich list ($5.25–$8) and providential pasta possibilities, such as the penne pomodoro, featuring penne rigate tossed with fresh garlic, basil, and extra-virgin olive oil ($6.25). Nocturnal nibblers can nosh nighttime-only entrees, such as fried chicken ($9) and sirloin steak ($14), as well as libations from the ornate, amply stocked bar.
Fubar describes itself as "not your father's gay bar," so don't say you haven't been warned. The spot hosts such colorful events as the Sigma Alpha Spank, in which contestants drink their way through a gantlet of beer pong, flip cup, and like-minded college games.
How long does it take for a dive to become an institution? Seventy-five years seems like a good bet. Once a magnet for studio execs from nearby MGM, the eclectic Backstage Bar remains a destination thanks to nightly drink specials, live music, and sports. There's even a fireplace and vintage phone booth.

SUKKOT FESTIVAL II - Very rare and authentic JOVAN OBICAN Lithographwith COA.
Sukkot (Hebrew: סוכות or סֻכּוֹת sukkōt or sukkos, Feast of Booths, Feast of Tabernacles) is a biblical holiday celebrated on the 15th day of the month of Tishrei (variously from late September to late October). It is one of the three biblically mandated festivals Shalosh regalim on which Hebrews were commanded to make a pilgrimage to the Temple in Jerusalem. It follows the solemn holiday of Yom Kippur, or the Day of Atonement.
The holiday lasts seven days (eight in the diaspora). The first day (and second in the diaspora) is a sabbath-like yom tov when work is forofferden, followed by the intermediate Chol Hamoed and Shemini Atzeret. The Hebrew word sukkōt is the plural of sukkah, "booth or tabernacle", which is a walled structure covered with skhakh (plant material such as leafy tree overgrowth or palm leaves).
The sukkah is intended as a reminiscence of the type of fragile dwellings in which the Israelites dwelt during their 40 years of travel in the desert after the Exodus from slavery in Egypt. Throughout the holiday, meals are eaten inside the sukkah and some people sleep there as well. On each day of the holiday, members of the household recite a blessing over the lulav and etrog (Four species).
According to the prophet Zechariah, in the messianic era Sukkot will become a universal festival and all nations will make pilgrimages annually to Jerusalem to celebrate the feast there.
Look at magnificent detail and color. Obican's art style is very unique. It is a conglomerate of tradition, history, hero tails, epics, old customs, and a derivation of folklore. His art is a recognizable self-standing style and both cheerful and whimsical.

Rahm Emanuel Speaks Out for Marriage Equality in Illinois
November 14, 2012 by HRC staff
This post comes from HRC Editorial & Digital Media Intern Leanne Naramore:
In an op-ed to the Chicago Sun-Times, Emanuel declared his determination to quickly pass marriage equality in his state.
"Last week's election continued America's great history of expanding opportunity and equality. Today, we must take the next step on that journey by affording the opportunity to marry to all Americans — and we can continue that march by quickly enacting marriage equality here in Illinois."
Legislators introduced a marriage equality bill in February.
Mayor Emanuel is encouraging Illinois citizens to be vocal and engaged with this push for marriage equality. Following our historic wins in Maine, Maryland, Washington and Minnesota last week, Emanuel said, "The time is right, the time is now" to take action.
This is the moment to take control of the momentum that is so overwhelmingly in our favor. In Illinois and in several other states, the fight for equality is on the horizon.

The Parent Room
Welcome to The Parent Room.
This space is provided to support your quest for information, to borrow a toy, book, DVD, to use the computer or to speak with other parents.
. As the parent is the first and most important teacher in a child's life, the necessity of parental involvement in their child's educational and therapeutic program is essential to meeting goals and achieving success as defined by the family. The following services were created or expanded to move Silver Creek forward in our efforts to help each child achieve their full potential:
- A more focused Parent Advocacy and Support program. We continue to be grateful to Etobicoke Brighter Futures Coalition for their financial support of this project.
- Weekly volunteer support in the parent room provided by a community member with expertise in social work and provincial policy
- Parent in the Classroom project: a dedicated day for parents to participate in the classroom
- Home/School Connection visits where teachers and therapists are able to visit in the home or alternate school program/childcare to promote cohesive goal setting and to problem solve around situations that are impeding progress. These situations may be behavioral, health, medical/surgical issues, communication, ADL, school transition, or adaptive equipment in nature.
Parent Workshops:
- CPR/First Aid
- Keeping It Together: make and take organizational binder
- Sign Language 5 week course
- School Transition evening, including the TDSB, TCDSB, and Special Education Advisory Committee
- Pathways to Printing workshop
- Parents of former SC students: 'What I have Learned" panel
Playgroups on Friday mornings with specific focus:
- Cooking Theme
- Communication with support from our SLP
- Jolly Phonics
For all of these programs we request/receive parent feedback, as well as elicit ideas for topics of interest/need. Following are a few of the responses received:
"the personal experiences were very inspiring and valuable in so many ways; all speakers shared excellent and relevant experiences; it was a great night with lots of good planning" (parent evening April 14, 2010)
"Very friendly instructor, very knowledgeable, sessions informative and educational; the course was great, but would be even better if it is offered early in the school year" (Sign Language January 2010)
"Very informative; all the explanations were done well; all tools were presented and explained; certainly I learned of ways which promote continuity of learning as well as the potential in other play activities which contribute to development of printing skills; exceeded my expectations. Examples of activities for use were plentiful and practical. " (Pathways to Printing, Feb. 2010)
" I got to see my children in a different environment/ as a working mom whose kids take the bus I don't normally get to see what happens in a typical day for them; I highly recommend keeping this program on as its great way for parents to get involved and also picked up lots of ideas about what they can do with their child at home" (Parent in the Classroom initiative)
Feedback from our families to these events/initiatives shows that we are meeting expectations 98% of the time; exceeding 25% of the time and that parents 98% of the time see themselves applying some of the learnings from the workshop/course. Our next endeavor is to reach more parents/participants in these activities, particularly our families who have language barriers or difficulties with access to transportation.
My daughter first attended Silver Creek when she was 2 years old and it was the first time I left her in the care of someone outside our family.
The teachers and staff at Silver Creek were so empathetic and understanding and made the process less stressful for both my daughter and myself.
The school's curriculum and programs are wonderful but it is the love that goes along with it from the teachers that make this a truly special

sounds like the power cable coming from the battery is corroded, You can get a new one anywhere, but wolfsburg west or cip1 will have proper one, or you can try getting under it and pulling thecable off checking it out to see if there is excessive corrosion on it and also on the battery side (more than likely the culprit) Good Luck, I have a '66 and had the same issue!

Satellite images of suspect sites in Syria 370 (R).
(photo credit:Reuters / Handout)
The government's decision Sunday to deploy Iron Dome in Haifa for the first time
may or may not be tied to concerns over a chemical weapon attack emanating from
Syria. But the dispatching of National Security Council head Yaakov Amidror to
Moscow definitely was.Amidror met with Russian officials in an attempt
to enlist the Kremlin in international efforts to keep the lid on Syria's
extensive stockpiles of chemical weapons, built up over
decades.According to The New York Times, already in November, our
military commanders discussed with the Pentagon troubling intelligence showing
up on satellite imagery. Syrian troops appeared to be mixing chemicals at two
storage sites – most likely the colorless, odorless deadly nerve agent sarin –
and filling dozens of 500- pounds bombs that could be dropped from
airplanes.Now, as the situation continues to deteriorate in Syria, and
rebels gain ground outside President Bashar Assad's strongholds near Damascus
and Aleppo – including, reportedly, near two chemical weapons installations –
fears have grown that either Assad will use the WMDs out of desperation, or that
jihadists or extremist organizations such as Hezbollah will get their hands on
them. Conceivably, chemical weapons could be loaded in missile heads and
launched at Israel.Critics of the Obama administration have claimed that
the White House is not doing enough to stop the fighting in Syria that has
claimed the lives of over 60,000 and caused hundreds of thousands of Syrians to
flee to Jordan, Turkey and elsewhere.Some have pointed to US President
Barack Obama's appointment of John Kerry as secretary of state, Chuck Hagel as
secretary of defense and John Brennan as CIA director as proof that the US
administration is unlikely to intervene aggressively in Syria.Judging
from their past records, these three men do seem to be overly optimistic
regarding the impact of "engagement" and "dialogue."For instance, in
2008 Hagel and Kerry co-authored an article in The Wall Street Journal arguing
it was time to end the White House's policy of isolating Syria. After Obama's
election, Kerry was appointed key interlocutor with Assad and visited Damascus
at least a half-dozen times between 2009 and 2011. And in 2010, Brennan, then
assistant to the president for homeland security and counter-terrorism, called
for the build-up of "moderate elements" within Hezbollah.However, even
if Obama had surrounded himself with hawks more predisposed to using military
force, there are no easy answers in Syria.The Pentagon has estimated
that to intervene in the fighting and neutralize the chemical weapons threat,
the US and its allies would have to deploy upward of 75,000
troops.Providing funding and support to more moderate elements among the
rebels is a tricky business as well. Even if the West could be assured that such
aid would not fall into the hands of more extremist elements, propping up just a
few groups whose relative sizes are difficult to estimate might accomplish
nothing more than escalation of the bloodshed. Perhaps it would even push Assad
to resort to chemical warfare.In an interview with The New Republic
published Sunday, Obama articulated his ambivalence about intervention in
Syria."In a situation like Syria, I have to ask, can we make a
difference in that situation?" Obama said. "Would a military intervention have
an impact? "How would it affect our ability to support troops who are still in
Afghanistan? What would be the aftermath of our involvement on the ground? Could
it trigger even worse violence or the use of chemical weapons? What offers the
best prospect of a stable post-Assad regime?" These are the sorts of questions
leaders should ask themselves – and there are no easy answers. Syria's proximity
to Israel makes these questions all the more pressing.Thankfully, there
is a broad consensus – which includes Russia, one of Assad's few backers – that
resorting to chemical weapons is a red line that must not be crossed, and that
the Syrian regime must be stopped before it does. Less clear are the means that
need to be taken to achieve that end in the most expedient way possible.

Caroline Kennedy in Seattle sings praise of libraries
Caroline Kennedy, daughter of Jackie and JFK, told a meeting of librarians in Seattle on Sunday that libraries are more important than ever when economic times are hard.
Seattle Times staff reporter
Libraries hold the power to transform lives and break down barriers — so it's no wonder they often come under attack, Caroline Kennedy told a packed house Sunday at the Midwinter Meeting of the American Library Association (ALA).
"They are, in a sense, tabernacles of personal freedom ... and freedom to dissent," said Kennedy, a longtime library booster, the author of several books and the daughter of two famous readers: President Kennedy and his wife, Jacqueline.
Intellectual freedom can be threatening to those in power, which is why the Germans destroyed libraries in World War II and why the post-9/11 Patriot Act sought access to individuals' library records, Kennedy said.
The threats facing the nation's libraries today are in some ways more insidious, she said, from doubts about relevance in the digital era to the constant erosion of budgets. The average investment in libraries across the country is $8 per resident, not enough to buy one book, she pointed out.
"In difficult economic times, people need libraries more than ever," she said.
The meeting of the world's largest and oldest library association drew more than 10,000 people to Seattle, one American city where use of, and support for, libraries is on the rise.
Voters approved a $123 million levy in 2012 that is allowing the Seattle Public Library to rebuild collections and expand hours after several years of cuts. According to the ALA's 2012 "State of America's Libraries" report, Seattle led the nation with a 50 percent increase in library circulation over the past six years.
But nationwide, libraries are grappling with fast-changing digital technology at the same time many face dwindling budgets, said ALA President Maureen Sullivan. Library users are clamoring for more e-books, but some publishers refuse to sell them to libraries. Those that do often restrict the number of times e-books can be loaned, or charge libraries five to 10 times the average cost, Sullivan said.
Modern libraries don't bear much resemblance to the hushed halls of the past, Kennedy said. They serve as community hubs, where new immigrants learn their way around, where people develop new job skills, and where anyone can gain access to the Internet — even if it's just to play games.
Kennedy credited her love for books to her parents, who encouraged her and her brother, the late John F. Kennedy Jr., to read widely. "I am descended from a long line of bookworms and amateur librarians," she said.
Every Mother's Day, the youngsters each selected a poem and copied it out for their mother, who kept the offerings in a scrapbook. Caroline Kennedy still has that book, and she continued the tradition with her own children.
Not all the entries are lofty. Kennedy recited a four-line selection from her brother about a boy named Willie who nailed his sister to the door.
But short, funny poems are one way to hook reluctant readers, she pointed out.
Kennedy's newest book is an anthology called "Poems to Learn by Heart," which will be released in March. Among her upcoming projects is serving as honorary chair of National Library Week in April.

Young Money's Drake has finally come clean on the Internet frenzy he sparked back in June when the Miami Heat won the NBA Finals in Game 7 and how he was denied access into their locker room for the celebration.
Even though he caught the wrath of the Internet poking fun, Drizzy admitted he found the entire incident amusing.
"As I joke, I tried to go in with the media through the media entrance," he said, "as they were all swarming in. That was a great night, one of the greatest nights of my life. But that was probably the highlight, getting denied by that old guy and it making news everywhere. That's a classic moment. I'm allowed to go in the Heat locker room for the most part, I just tried to do it in a funny way. It didn't work out for me, I'll never do it again." (Highly Questionable)
The rap star noted the security guard's age and lack of knowledge caused him to suffer a caught-on-video rejection.
"It's good to know that that [security] guy is doing his job," Drake continued. "Some things are sacred, for example, like the Heat locker room on the night of the NBA Finals. Not anybody should be able to walk in there, and he clearly knows zero Drake songs. I don't blame him, he was like 89 years old. I understand, hats off to that gentleman who was doing due diligence as security." (Highly Questionable)
In the 16-second clip, Drizzy is seen trying to go into the Heat's locker room for the champagne party.
Rapper Drake is a close friend of both LeBron James and Dwyane Wade. He tried to get to the locker room Thursday to celebrate the Heat's back-to-back championships with they dynamic duo but was rejected. You hope that poor security guard doesn't wind up getting fired. He doesn't know who the guy is, and he doesn't have a badge. I can tell you security was extra tight for Game 7 Thursday night so it's no surprise that even in the maelstrom following the Heat's victory that someone without a pass was denied. I guess he started from the bottom and still couldn't get to the level where he can get past security. Or, if you prefer, ahem…. Last name denied, first name access… (CBS Sports)
Despite the arena incident, Drizzy eventually teamed up with King James at a nearby club.
After the Miami Heat won their second-straight NBA title last night, they retreated to Club Story for the traditional celebration party. At last year's party, LeBron James wore a shirt with a picture of himself as a vampire on it, and sang on stage alongside Redfoo from LMFAO. This year, perhaps because he was so spent from a grueling seven-game NBA Finals series, he was a bit more passive. He appeared on stage at Story with Dwyane Wade and R&B artist Drake. At one point, they ordered pizza to the stage, and LeBron ate pizza and danced a little bit while Drake took the mic next to him. (Business Insider)

Alaska Native Corporations, a special class of small businesses given preferential treatment in federal contracting, have received more than their share of federal contracting dollars, according to Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) — so much more that she plans to hold a hearing next month.
Federal agencies awarded such companies $5.2 billion in contracts in 2008, compared to $508.4 million in 2000, according to a preliminary analysis of publicly available data released by McCaskill's office. On average, ANC contracting has increased 33.6 percent each year, which is more growth than in any other category of federal contract awards, the analysis states.
Of the contract dollars ANCs won in 2008, 74 percent were awarded through the Small Business Administration's 8(a) program, the senator's analysis shows.
The Defense Department is by far the largest user of ANC contracts. It spent $16.9 billion on such companies from 2000 to 2008, which accounts for more than 70 percent of ANC spending overall, according to the analysis.
Companies owned by Alaska natives have an edge in federal contracting under SBA rules. Most notably, they are eligible to be awarded contracts of any size without competition, while SBA's other set-aside programs put limits on contract size. Also, ANCs can enter into sole-source contracts of any value. And they can subcontract work to companies that don't qualify for SBA's 8(a) program and enter into joint ventures and partnerships with non-native companies for sole-source contracts.
McCaskill, chairwoman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee's Contracting Oversight Subcommittee, said the information shows that ANCs have also received a disproportionate share of small-business loans.
However, Sarah Lukin, executive director of the Native American Contractors Association, said small-business set-aside policies don't overly favor ANCs. In the case of most 8(a) companies, a set-aside program benefits one owner or family, she said. In the case of ANCs, whole tribes often have a stake in a business. "Alaska Native Corporations serve hundreds and oftentimes thousands of disadvantaged individuals in perpetuity."
Lukin offer a different perspective on McCaskill's numbers. In 2008, awards to ANCs constituted 19 percent of 8(a) prime-contract awards, benefiting 130,000 disadvantaged people. In contrast, all other 8(a) companies combined received 81 percent of prime-contract awards and served about 10,000 disadvantaged individuals.
The senator's subcommittee is investigating ANCs and will hold a hearing July 16 to discuss the issues.
McCaskill based her analysis on information Eagle Eye Publishers, a government contracting research company, compiled from the Federal Procurement Data System.
The subcommittee is also studying information provided by ANCs. In May, McCaskill sent letters to executives at 20 companies, asking for their total revenue and operating expenses, salaries, and how much money they had received from federal contracts and subcontracts in each of the past eight years.
In the federal information technology market, six ANCs ranked on Washington Technology's 2009 Top 100 list of IT contractors, with one being in the top 50. NANA Regional Corp., at No. 47, nearly doubled its contracting dollars, from $214.8 million in 2007 to $427.6 million in 2008. Also on the list:

At National Conference for Media Reform, Activists Hope to Stop Murdoch, Koch-Backed Consolidation
We broadcast from the National Conference for Media Reform in Denver, where some 2,000 people are expected to gather to look at how media, technology and democracy intersect. One of the major topics this year is media consolidation. As newspapers struggle to survive, billionaire brothers David and Charles Koch have expressed interest in buying Tribune Company, which includes the Los Angeles Times and the Chicago Tribune. Media mogul Rupert Murdoch is also weighing a bid for the Los Angeles Times in a market where he already owns two television stations. We're joined by Craig Aaron, president and CEO of Free Press, the main organizer of the National Conference for Media Reform. [includes rush transcript]
Digital Disconnect: Robert McChesney on "How Capitalism Is Turning the Internet Against Democracy"
Longtime media-reform advocate Robert McChesney looks at how the future of American politics could be largely determined by who controls the Internet in his newest book. "'Digital Disconnect' talks about the difference between the mythology of the Internet, the hope of the Internet, that it would empower people and make democracy triumphant, versus the reality, which is that large corporate monopolies and the government, working together, are taking away the promise of the Internet to suit their interests," says McChesney, the co-founder of Free Press and the National Conference for Media Reform. His book begins with a simple claim: "The ways capitalism works and does not work determine the role the Internet might play in society." [includes rush transcript]
Colorado Independent: Suspect in Killing of Prisons Chief Tormented by Years of Solitary Confinement
A new potential motive has emerged in last month's killing of Colorado prisons chief Tom Clements: According to The Colorado Independent, the slain suspect Evan Spencer Ebel may have committed murder less out of loyalty to white supremacists, as has been suspected, but rather out of mental anguish produced by years spent in solitary confinement deprived of regular human contact. We're joined by Colorado Independent Editor Susan Greene. A longtime reporter for The Denver Post, Greene discusses the investigation, as well why she has left the corporate media to preserve and revitalize the Independent as a vital source of political and investigative journalism in Colorado.

"Shadows of Liberty": New Film Explores How Corporate Control of Media Erodes Press Freedoms
The new documentary "Shadows of Liberty" had its U.S. premiere last night at the National Conference for Media Reform in Denver. Using individual cases of journalists whose attempts to tell their stories have been muzzled by corporations and the government, the film shows how a corporate-controlled media can silence the truth about issues ranging from war to labor practices. In one instance, CBS refused to re-air an investigation by the prize-winning journalist Roberta Baskin on Nike's use of sweatshop labor in Vietnam. [includes rush transcript]
