To start out, I wonder if I could simply have you state your full name and the date and place of your birth. -REE.: Yes. It's Alan -reen, 8unior. I have no middle initial. My friends call me Punch. I don't now what my enemies call me, but I'd just as soon not find out. 2 But I got the nic name from my father who was nic named Punch, and he got it from Michigan where he was born in Saginaw, Michigan, and I as ed him how he got the nic name Punch, and he said, A.one of your business.A So there you have it. In the 1220s, an informal organi1ation was active in Portland. They were nown locally as the Hoot Owls , I believe they broadcast on radio once a wee CSaturday night , 11:00 to 12:00 midnightD from the old Oregonian Building at Eth and Alder. I mention this because the names include Charles and Forrest Berg, Fran Sardams, Harry S. -rannatt, Homer Welch, and Alan 9Punch: -reen, Sr. , the -rand Song Master Cmy dadD. ItFs my understanding Dad had to come up with a song every wee . He had the natural talent to do this. I donFt have it, and IFve yet to see it in my children or eight grandchildren. The Hoot Owls are important to me because on or about May 1, 1225, I was made a member , I guess that ma es me the only remaining Hoot Owl sans the talent of my illustrious predecessors. .ow, I was born on May the 1st, 1225, in Portland, Oregon, and my mother was Helen Corbett Ladd, a prominent family in Oregon. Q: Could you tell me something about the traditions, beginning with the Ladds, your mother's side of the family, and what you ,new of them, and what you heard from your mother about the family- -REE.: Well, actually, it's really ind of a sad story. The Ladds did an awful lot for this area, and W.S. Ladd was one of the founders, for e/ample, of the Arlington Club and was a ban er, Ladd G Tilton Ban , which, of course, established the U.S. National Ban here. They went under, under the tutelage of my grandfather, Wesley Ladd, and I thin it's Charles Ladd, and it was a bad trip. -oing from rich to poor is very difficult, and combined with the Depression , this even happened before the Depression. But my mother lost her hearing, and Dad, I thin , lost his nerve. He was a marvelous man; I don't want anybody to misinterpret. I love my father very deeply, but he lost his nerve, and he turned, I thin , to boo1e. He handled it pretty well, but I was young. But I new that he had a problem, and Mother lost her hearing. I mean, I went to Ainsworth School, and she was the cashier in the cafeteria, and I have a feeling that , I was never aware of it, but I thin that that's how I got fed , so she didn't have to pay for the lunch for me. She had some awfully good staunch friends, and Dad did, too. But I was aware that we didn't have any particular money, but I also wasn't that aware because I was a boy, you don't reali1e those things when you're a id. Everybody was bro e anyway in the Depression. And we had some marvelous people living across the street from us on Talbot Road on Portland Heights by the name of Octy and Roberta -raham. I as ed them to be my 3 godmother and godfather, and they accepted to my joy. And they had a dog named 8iggs. We couldn't afford a dog, so I adopted 8iggs, and they had two of the greatest sons I've ever nown, Clar -raham and Douglas -raham, and both of them have passed on. But they were certainly my boyhood friends. And I remember Aunt Bob -raham gave me my first pair of long pants for Christmas, and she's been a dear friend of mine ever since. I love her dearly, and she's 101 years old. And I just last wee , 8im, saw her, and her main concern was getting the Master's -olf Tournament on television. I mean, that's, when you're 101 and you have that sort of interest. Her eyesight is leaving her, but I gave her a ABoo s on Tape: mechanism and she's utili1ing that, and the state of Oregon provides Boo s on Tape free of charge, you just return them. It's a marvelous service that I wasn't aware that they do. But that's, I thin , filled her day 0uite a bit. But I played the usual things, football, baseball. I was a trac man, surprisingly enough. At Lincoln School, I almost had the record for the , I had the record for the 0uarter mile, but then I twisted my an le chasing Sol Menashe because he'd stolen my lunch, and I slipped and twisted my an le, and I couldn't get my speed bac in time to get the record, and that's something , it's a funny thing, all my life I've ind of regretted that because Lincoln, you now, we didn't have any really good football team; we had good baseball teams, but, you now , and bas etball teams, we had good bas etball teams. Q: I wonder if we could sort of go bac, to your family for a bit. .ou say your dad lost his nerve. About what time -- -REE.: Oh, I thin when the Ladd estate went down the tube, and that sort of thing. I thin he was a bro er, and I thin he would have been tremendously successful if he'd stayed with it. He had that ind of personality. But it just didn't wor out, and I can remember Dad , well, I suppose it's all right to say , pic ing up the telephone and tal ing about some business thing, and I pic ed up the telephone and the line was dead on the other side. I mean, that sort of thing. You now, it was sad. But Dad, I tell you one thing he did. During World War II, he too a job in the shipyard, and you now, the people I was going with were pretty fancy, and Dad was, I thin , a time eeper down there, and he'd ta e the streetcar home. And I'd be on the streetcar with him sometimes, and you now, I'd go over and sit with him, and he'd say, AYou don't have to sit with me,A you now, so I'd be embarrassed. And I said, ADad, I'm proud to sit with you.A And then Mother, she had a tough time with it for a while, an awful tough time. But Lord, the more she came on , and maybe I'm jumping ahead, and if I am, I'm sorry, but I thin one of the biggest pleasures of whatever success I've had is the fact that I was able to ta e care of my mother at the end. She didn't have anything to worry about, and it wasn't tough for me to help her. Well, we'll stay with this, but I do want to put in right now that the most important 4 decision I've reached, ever reached in my life is the girl I married, 8oan Irwin. She was right with me all the time, and through the boo1e and the whole thing, and if I'd ta en another drin , I wouldn't be married to her , and justifiably so, I might add. -o ahead. Q: 0ell, you're having a really full picture of your life, going bac,. But that ma,es a lot of sense. -REE.: Yes. But I do want to get in early on that I would not be a success without 8oan. 8oan had some money, too. Her father was a very successful lumberman. We didn't use it particularly; I was able to ma e money. But I used her guarantee a couple times.

Benchmark Programs in Six Other States B. Oregon Progress Board Publications Notes References Foreword The development and publication of statistical indicators of the health status and well-being of populations has been increasing in the United States and internationally. These indicators still have less influence on health policy than the publication of data about leading economic indicators has on business decisions. However, indicators of health status are attracting attention among officials at all levels of government as well as among private-sector executives making decisions about such issues as where to locate or relocate operations. The state of Oregon in 1989 began to devise indicators of well-being, calling them benchmarks, as part of a long- term project to improve the economy of the state initiated by then-governor Neil Goldschmidt. The Oregon Progress Board (OPB), a public body whose members are leaders of the community, business, and government, manages the benchmarking process.

  • A Brief History of Civc Space in Portland Oregon Since World War II Including Origins of Café Soceity
    A Brief History of Civc Space in Portland Oregon Since World War II Including Origins of Café Soceity In post World War II Portland, Portlanders were in love with their automobiles, while civic leaders and engineers planned freeways and expressways and vacant land in the central city was paved over for parking lots. Robert Moses came to Portland in 1943 and laid out a blueprint for the future of Portland, one hatch marked with freeways and thoroughfares slicing and dicing the city into areas separated by high speed cement rivers. Freeways completed during this period, such as Interstate 5, tore through minority and poor neighborhoods, such as Albina, with little collective resistance. It was a good time to be a road engineer, a poor time if you were African American. Portland was proud of its largest mall, Lloyd Center; for a short period of time the largest mall in the country. It was a sign of progress. Teenagers spent their time driving between drive-in restaurants and drive-in movies, or cruising downtown streets to be seen. Adults spent their time at home in front of that marvelous new invention, the television, or often in private clubs. Nearly a quarter of all civic associations were temples, lodges or clubs. During this period, civic leaders in Portland took pride in early urban renewal projects such as the South Auditorium project that required the demolition of 382 buildings and the relocation of 1,573 residents and 232 businesses. The project effectively terminated one of Portland's Jewish and Eastern European enclaves, and dispersed a sizable gypsy population to the outer reaches of southeast Portland.

Eventually she made her way to Oregon where she enrolled as a student at Reed College and received her Bachelor of Arts and later, her Masters of Arts in Teaching. She also received a second Masters of Arts degree in Literature from the University of Arizona, Flagstaff. After graduating, Ms. Miller adventured to England, Europe and Africa, eventually teaching in England and Rhodesia. (Zimbabwe). Upon her return to Oregon, after working as a teacher at Wilson High School (Portland), she applied her talents and education to political pursuits, heading the Portland Federation of Teachers #111 and lobbying for education in 1977. Ms. Miller’s credentials in the political arena grew as she assumed the role of the first woman Parliamentarian for the Oregon AFL/CIO Conventions; campaigned actively for Neil Goldschmidt (mayoral campaign); served on the City of Portland Economic Advisory Committee; and won a seat on the Metropolitan Service District (MSD) Council in 1979 (representing District 8).

  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.
