BLM, WOPR Office RECEIVED 333 SW 1st Ave. Portland, OR 97208 DEe 1 7 Z007 I moved here from the San Francisco Bay Area three years ago. I chose this area because of its natural beauty, primarily the forested areas and natural rivers, creeks and lakes. Many folks pick this area for recreation and retirement for this very reason, bringing their tourist spending and retirement incomes right along with them. Retirement incomes are much-coveted by most state and local governments, and the WOPR Alternative 2 is now - jeopardizing this source of income fOr Oiegon~s county-and staTeCoffers. - I live in Cottage Grove, 20 miles south of Eugene. I imagined getting up many mornings and hiking among the big trees and clean streams. Imagine my dismay when it turned out that I must drive about 40 minutes out to the Brice Creek area in order to have a place to hike on public land. That was about the same distance I had to drive in the Bay Area to be able to hike in the trees - but here, there is ''public land" all around me. I just can't access it. Part ofBLM's charter is to make public land available to it's public, for hiking, camping, and other recreational activities, and BLM has mistakenly underplayed its responsibility to the public in this regard. This is OUR land and we should be able to enjoy it. And when I do, I don't want to hike in some second or third-growth plantation forest; I want to experience the trees, the whole ecosystem as it naturally is, not as it has been "structured" by forest managers. Leave the remaining old growth alone. Open more areas to public access. And if you must manage, manage more of the area so that it will someday grow into mature forest and old growth, so that our grandchildren can experience nature as she truly, organically, is. Mora Dewey POBox 1113 Cottage Grove, OR 97424 541-767-3826 cc: Gov. Ted Kulongoski, Sens Ron Wyden & Gordon Smith, and Reps. Greg Walden, David Wu, Earl Blumenhauer, Peter DeFazio and Darlene Hooley..

The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY of ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University Ofhong Kong
The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY OF ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University ofHong Kong Asia today is one ofthe most dynamic regions ofthe world. The previously predominant image of 'timeless peasants' has given way to the image of fast-paced business people, mass consumerism and high-rise urban conglomerations. Yet much discourse remains entrenched in the polarities of 'East vs. West', 'Tradition vs. Change'. This series hopes to provide a forum for anthropological studies which break with such polarities. It will publish titles dealing with cosmopolitanism, cultural identity, representa tions, arts and performance. The complexities of urban Asia, its elites, its political rituals, and its families will also be explored.

Visit our We have a new name and fresh look that projects energy and optimism about revamped health in Oregon. On 10-10-10, we dropped Community Health Partnership from our name and officially became the Oregon Public Health Institute. Please visit our website at revamped website at www.orphi.org to explore new online features and resources. www.orphi.org OPHI built a reputation for action on public health issues far ahead of the mainstream. We will continue in that vein as we enter our second decade. Our philosophy shares much with hockey great Wayne Gretzky. He would say, “Skate to where the puck is going to be.” Not where the puck is now, or where it has already been. Like Gretzky, our orientation is towards the future and reflects an awareness of conditions around us. We plan and anticipate while continually moving forward towards our ultimate goal. Our “puck” is public health. In fact, we designed a hockey puck into our new logo to symbolize the OPHI vision that inspires our work. Public health efforts we invest in today lay the groundwork for the OPHI vision of tomorrow.tomorrow’s At OPHI, we see a day in the not-too-distant future when allhealth Oregonians today have greater opportunities to enjoy optimal health and a better quality of life in the places we live, learn, work, and play.

Pcj;Uu~ S~~ ADDRESS:~OO D~ Vcdl~ Rep
Bureau of Land Management, Western Oregon Plan Revisions Office 333 SW 1st. Avenue, Portland, OR 97208 RECEIVED JAN 092008 I am very concerned with the direction the Bush Administration is headed with the management of nearly 2.6 million acres of federal forests under the Western Oregon Plan Revisions.The changes the Bureau of Land Management is contemplating will unravel the protections of the landmark Northwest Forest Plan, and will lead to water pollution, degraded habitat, and increased conflict and controversy. The Bush Administration would place half of the public land that the BLM manages - and most of our best old-growth BLM forests - in "Timber Management Areas" to be clearcut every 80 years. The Bush Administration's preferred alternative proposes to clearcut 110,000 acres of Oregon's old-growth (120+ years) and build 1,000 mile of new logging roads every decade while creating over 100,000 miles of new Off Highway Vehicle Emphasis Areas - all at the expense of roadless areas, threatened species, water quality and non-motorized recreation. Shockingly, the proposal ignores the role that these forests play in regulating the climate. Most Americans want federal land managers to embrace thinning second growth forests, safeguard communities from wildfire and protect what remains of our nation's ancient forests. Indeed, many Oregon forest managers are already moving beyond the conflicts of the past. By focusing on previously logged public forestlands - many of which are now overgrown and in need of thinning - they are providing wood to local mills while actually improving conditions for fish and wildlife and keeping saws out of precious old-growth forests.

160692 Memorandum
160692 MEMORANDUM To: Portland City Council From: David Wu Subject: Portland-Suzhou Sister City Relationship Date: April 8, 1988 After three years of effort by numerous citizens of Portland, we are now prepared to the Portland-Suzhou Sister City Relationship for official City Council approval. This potential sister city relationship will benefit Portland in several ways. First, Suzhou is a city· which has been revered in Chinese culture for over 2,OOO.years. In any future dealings between citizens of Portland and the Chinese, a reference to Suzhou is one which will be impressive to our Chinese counterparts. In effect, citizens of Portland can piggyback upon the notoriety of Suzhou. Second, Suzhou is now the fourth leading economic region in China. Beyond its raw economic productivity, Suzhou is well placed to trade with foreign countries because of substantial hard foreign currency earnings derived from tourism, silk, and food exports. In satisfaction of the criteria established by this city council for sister city relationships, Suzhou, as part of the People's Republic of China, has established diplomatic relations with the United States. Suzhou has no other sister 4 • • 4 160692 city in the United States. Portland does not have another sister city in China. Portland and Suzhou are roughly of the same size, and each city is one which values culture and a high quality of life. Finally, our Sister City Association is establishing cultural, educational, economic and social exchanges with Suzhou. We have now involved several hundred citizens of Portland and have raised approximately $1,700 to support Portland-Suzhou sister city activities.

11/09/2000 State Delegations in the 107Th Congress
UNITED STATES * * * NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 5 Ild'drT November 9, 2000 MEMORANDUM TO: Chairman Meserve Commissioner Dicus Commissioner Diaz Commissioner McGaffigan Commissioner Merrifield FROM: Dennis K. Rathbun, Director Office of Congressional Affaiirs SUBJECT: STATE DELEGATIONS IN THE 107TH CONGRESS Attached for your information is the list of State delegations for the 107r Congress. In the State of Washington, incumbent Senator Slade Gorton (R) is in a race that is still considered too close to call. In the House, there are two races that are considered too close to call. It appears that E. Clay Shaw (R) is ahead in Florida's 2 2nd district, and Rush D. Holt (D) is ahead in New Jersey's 12t' district, but they have not yet been declared the winners. Regarding NRC's oversight committees, in the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, the Chairmanships are likely to remain unchanged. However, if ranking minority member Senator Max Baucus (MT) moves to take over the ranking slot in the Finance Committee, Senator Harry Reid (NV) may become ranking member of the Environment Committee. In the House Committee on Commerce, Chairman Thomas Bliley (VA) is retiring. Representatives W.J. "Billy" Tauzin (LA) and Michael G. Oxley (OH) are rivals for the chairmanship. Rep. John D. Dingell (Mich) will remain as the Committee's ranking member. It is likely that Joe Barton (TX) will remain chairman of the Energy and Power Subcommittee; however, the Committee's ranking members are less certain at this time. Regarding the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations, the full committee chairmanships and ranking members are expected to stay the same.
