OWNER & NEIGHBOR 480033.030614 A2 NEWS The Portland Tribune Thursday, March 6, 2014 Cancer: OHSU may recruit ‘dream teams’ ■ From page 1

Funding from the National In- stitutes of Health’s National Cancer Institute is widely re- garded as a barometer for as- sessing the success of a re- search institution. OHSU was not even among the 60 cancer institutions that received $15 million or more from the NCI in 2012, the last year for which complete data is available. Consider OHSU’s competi- tion in the world of cancer re- search. M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston received $118 million in NCI research funding in 2012. Next up was the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Re- search Center in Seattle, which earned $86 million in cancer grant funding. In 2012, the Knight Institute received about $12 million in direct NCI grants, although OHSU officials say their grant numbers for 2013 were signifi cantly higher. Another barometer for rank- ing cancer institutes is their designation from the NCI. There are 68 NCI-designated cancer centers, including the Knight Institute. That designa- tion refl ects “scientifi c leader- ship, resources and capabilities in laboratory, clinical or popula- tion science, or some combina- tion of these three compo- nents,” according to Ryan TRIBUNE PHOTO: JAIME VALDEZ Hohman, director of policy and OHSU research assistant Michelle Degnin begins the process of taking a leukemia patient’s blood to identify its specifi c cancer pathway. public affairs for the Washing- ton, D.C.-based Friends of Can- cer Research.

SEPTEMBER 2012 • ONLINE AT SWCOMMCONNECTION.COM • NO. 233 • FREE Glass half full Local author publishes e-memoir about life, death and love By DREW DAKESSIAN Th e Connection Chastity Glass is beautiful. Her blonde hair falls in waves, just barely grazing her tanned shoulders. She wears glasses, sometimes, and her un- lined face is rarely without a small, comforting smile. She looks like she could be a surfer, or possibly a librarian. What sets her apart from the scores of other blonde, tan and happy 30-somethings from California is a poem tat- tooed on her right forearm: “i am scared of being scared… and so, I am not even if i am.” She was 27 years old, living in Hollywood and recently dumped when she met Anthony Glass, a handsome video editor who worked at her offi ce. Th ey were instantly attract- ed to each other, exchanging poetic and increasingly fl irta- tious emails and quickly falling in love. Just a few months after they started dating, their love story, a story of what she calls “that young 20s love when you start making plans,” was unexpectedly and indelibly altered.

PHOTOS COURTESY OF BLUE MAN GROUP The three humanoids of Blue Man Group like to create all kinds of noise with drums as part of their popular show, which plays , March 7 to 9. ■ For Russell Rinker, performing with wacky Blue Man Group is serious fun Into the WILD BLUE

ehind the blue facepaint, skull cap, nonde- script clothing, sealed lips and inexplicable movement is a real person acting as one of the Begoless humanoids with the vastly popular Blue Man Group. Russell Rinker likes the feeling. Nobody knows who he is. “It’s kind of a superhero STORY BY identity,” he says. JASON Yet, he dislikes the feeling. Nobody knows who he is. VONDERSMITH “Actors want to be known as themselves and get work as themselves,” he says. “It’s tough to be in the anonymous character business.” The 37-year-old Rinker, a Shakespearean actor, opera singer and classically trained pianist who grew up in rural Virginia, has performed with Blue Man Group for about 10 years, both in its residence home of Las Vegas and throughout the world on tour. He left the troupe Humanoids roll out their toilet paper and do other things, leaving audience members “not knowing what to RINKER See BLUE / Page 2 think,” Russell Rinker says.
