Introduce yourself, introduce them to other members and encourage them to take full advan- tage of all that Portland Yacht Club has to offer! - 2 - VOLUNTEERS by Steve Gordon Come on now we’re marching to the sea Got a revolution PORTLIGHT Got to revolution publisһed montһly by tһe Who will take it from you � We will and who are we We are volunteers of America Jefferson Airplane - Volunteers PORTLAND YACHT CLUB Normally, you’d be reading from me about some party, cruise or event at PYC with the usual 2341 NE Marine Drive blend of sarcasm, humor and fiction; but this time, it’s serious. I say serious because as Portland, Oregon 97211 every year passes, it becomes more and more evident that there is a lowering of respect and 503-285-1922 • 503-283-4960 (f) admiration for the very people that take their time to volunteer to either help run the club [email protected] or serve on various committees. Thus, you can consider this column my first editorial since www.portlandyc.com starting to write for the Portlight years ago. EDITOR – Susan Dorn Let’s consider the amount of time that is required to keep this club running on a daily basis, OFFICERS AND TRUSTeeS which is considerable. Sure, we have management and associated staff that assist in sending Commodore Christopher Dorn (sail) you a bill, serving you at the bar and in keeping things running smoothly - but they are paid Vice Commodore Larry Justice (power) employees. Everyone else, from the Commodore to the member seen cleaning the bathrooms Secretary/Treasurer Gil MacGregor (sail) at the Outstation, is not paid; they are Volunteers. Just from an operations perspective, it Rear Commodore Larry Cirotski (power) would cost 10X (my estimate) what it currently costs to run this club if we didn’t have our Trustee Dale Richards (power) community of Volunteers. That means your monthly moorage bill and membership fees Trustee Mary Stainsby (sail) could be as much as $1,000 or more. Are you willing to pay that? Trustee Terri Entler (sail) Trustee David Stuckey (power) With Volunteers we have a club that can function, truly, as a member owned club. You can Trustee Al Parr (power) enjoy the Outstation, for example, because Volunteers keep it running and upgrade it with free labor and time. Events at the clubhouse such as dinners or New Year’s parties exist 100% FOR SALE BY OWNER because of Volunteers who plan the event, secure the entertainment, decorate and basically do everything behind the scenes that you don’t see. All Volunteers deserve a huge pat on the back and a sincere thank you. What they don’t deserve is disrespect and frivolous complaints. I could fill a whole column based on the things we all hear about regarding what goes on at PYC and the political discussions pertaining to whatever the issue of the week happens to be. This is disconcerting because at the end of the day, nobody you see helping out or leading a committee or volunteering to be on the board is getting paid one dime for their time. Consider this the next time you see a member on the docks painting a railing or another member serving you food at a cruise. It’s all volunteer labor; and for that, we should all be 40’ BILL GARDEN DESIGNED thankful.

There was an awesome crowd that enjoyed LIVE Fire/LED Hoop Dancers, Americas Cup Video Footage, a LIVE performance by Patrick Lamb AND great food! PATRICK LAMB PATRICK FIRE DANCER NICOLE DANCER FIRE MUSICIAN & ENTERTAINER ENTERTAINER & MUSICIAN Next up, if you were there, you will remember Portland Yacht Club’s 2014 Spring Regatta on April 26th and 27th! The notable weather will not be forgotten! We faced thunder, lightning, rain, hail, and massive squalls. Through it all we were able to get 5 races off. Please see results at SailPDX.org. Lastly, we want to report the results of the 2014 Oregon Offshore International Yacht Race (shown below). Congratulations to the following PYC boats: “California Girl”, “Riva”, “Anam Cara” and “Velocity”. Everyone enjoyed a wild ride up the Oregon/Washington coast for a wildly suc- cessful race!

Thanks to Dale Richards and his team of organizers. - 5 - - 6 - OPENING DAY | COLUMBIA RIVER YACHTING ASSOCIATION (CRYA) By Ken Kudrna Opening Day is behind us and as reported elsewhere, PYC took five awards in the parade! As to CRYA’s role in Opening Day, I see much better just how much work and planning goes into getting ready for this event now that I am an officer.

Studies on carbon and DNA preservation in allophanic soils and paleosols on Holocene tephras in New Zealand A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Earth Sciences at The University of Waikato by YU-TUAN HUANG 2016 Abstract The recovery of ancient DNA (aDNA) and palaeoenvironmental DNA (PalEnDNA) from soils and sediments has enabled detailed paleontological and ecological records to be obtained. Because of the superior ability of allophanic soils and Andisols to adsorb considerable soil organic matter (SOM), and to slow the rate of carbon turnover in such soils, I hypothesised that environmental DNA can be preserved in allophanic soils and Andisols together with SOM, and that such DNA may be able to help reveal past environments. I characterised the preserved SOM in stratigraphic successions of buried paleosols on Holocene tephras of known age in northern New Zealand and attempted to extract and analyse the DNA to search for possible PalEnDNA.

PREFACE To Abraham Lincoln, the Civil War was essentially a people's contest over the maintenance of a government dedi- cated to the elevation of man and the right of every citizen to an unfettered start in the race of life. President Lincoln believed that most Americans understood this, for he liked to boast that while large numbers of Army and Navy officers had resigned their commissions to take up arms against the government, not one common soldier or sailor was known to have deserted his post to fight for the Confederacy.
