The Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes have long been a source of inspiration and innovation for area Tribes.

That's one of the many factors that ended with America being the world's worst polluter.

I'm not sure what the correct answers to that question are, but I'd like to defer to Al Gore instead.
After walking around sweaty today because I was dressed too appropriately for the winter season - with a scarf, turtleneck, and heavy jacket - I have to agree that there is a lot of credence to global warming.

The Native actor’s role on 'Law and Order: SVU' is coming to an end, but he plans to stay busy with an Internet TV show, a book and a new baby.
