Schools reportedly will continue to cut staff and
days around the state despite the large education
package passed by the state legislature.
A recent study at Oregon Research Institute (ORI)
shows that rates of electronic cigarette (e-cigarette)
use among Oregon 8th and 9th graders is higher
than national average.
Wildfi res continue to burn in the state with the fi re

the weekend. Air quality continues to hover near
unhealthy levels.
North Korea has walked back threats to attack U.S.
Guam this week saying that it will follow through
with its plan only if, "Yankees persist in their dan-
gerous, reckless actions."
Racial tensions continue to mount after a white
supremacy rally took place last weekend and
ended with the death of 32 year old Heather Heyes
