Newspaper Page Text2A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 11, 2017 ‘What shopping options should be added to downtown Astoria?’ “There’s no room to put anything big. A nice craft store, with supplies to make stuff. I was walking downtown one day, and couldn’t ﬁ nd a craft store.” THE DAILY ASTORIAN // QUESTION OF THE WEEK Laurie Nicholas, Westport “Fresh fruit and veg- etables that are al- ways affordable, not just when they’re on sale. Like Columbia Fruit and Produce. You could stock up for the whole week, or just get a few things.” “I’d love to see a big- ger quilt shop that brings in more vari- ety and interesting newer lines of stuff. I’d love to see a place where people can eat and drink and play games — a great way to spend a rainy winter. ” Mandi Anderson, Astoria Carol Folk, Astoria Knight Cancer Institute lands a big scientiﬁ c name By KRISTIAN FODEN- VENCIL Oregon Public Broadcasting The Knight Cancer Insti- tute has snagged a big scien- tiﬁ c ﬁ sh. Dr. Gordon Mills runs the Institute for Personalized Ther- apy at the Anderson Cancer Center in Houston — the larg- est cancer center in the world. Mills, who holds more than 20 patents, is now headed to Oregon to ﬁ gure out what com- bination of drugs is most effec- tive on what kinds of tumors. Oregon Health and Science University Dr. Gordon Mills is joining the Knight Cancer Institute. Instead of taking just one biopsy of a tumor when a can- cer is ﬁ rst discovered, he plans to take biopsies every four to six weeks as a patient is treated. “In the past we simply treated patients until they have a great outcome, which is what we’re hoping for, or in far too many cases the tumor pro- gresses,” he said. “The goal is to understand what is happen- ing in real time to that patient and that tumor and adapt our therapy to those changes.” Undergoing a biopsy can be painful for the patient. But the institute is trying to develop new tests that are less painful, cheaper and more reliable. For example, tests that ﬁ nd cancer tumors Clatsop County joins Green Power Partnership The Daily Astorian Clatsop County received a rare distinction last week from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. It became the ﬁ rst county in Oregon and second in the nation to join the EPA’s Green Power Partnership. Member- ship was dependent upon the county’s commitment to pur- chasing at least 10 percent of its annual electricity supply for its operations from renew- able sources such as solar, wind and water. The county Board of Com- missioners voted to make the commitment in March. The commitment is part the coun- ty’s partnership with Paciﬁ c DNA in the blood, urine or saliva. “We are at an inﬂ ection point where we are changing the whole outcome for cancer patients,” Mills said. “The idea of being able to focus in on this key criti- cal question of what makes each person’s cancer differ- ent, and having the team that is dedicated to putting that in place was what drew me to the Knight Cancer Institute and OHSU.” The director of the OHSU Knight Cancer Institute, Brian THURSDAY Power’s Blue Sky Program. As part of that partner- ship, the county set a goal of 3 percent solar partici- pation rate among residents and businesses. In exchange for participation, the county will receive a one-kilowatt solar installation, likely to be placed at one of its buildings by early next year.
