About Us How to Help Programs Event Calendar ... ALA National Updated NEWS ARCHIVE Mow Green: PGE Launches Electric Lawnmower Deal $50 rebate helps buy environment-friendly mowers Portland area residents can help the environment, mow their lawns and save money at the same time. Portland General Electric (PGE) is again offering rebates to anyone who recycles a working gasoline mower and replaces it with an electric lawnmower or push mower. According to the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), gasoline-powered lawn mowers pour millions of pounds of pollutants into northern Willamette Valley air every year. Electric lawnmowers have zero local environmental impact. Electric mowers are also much quieter and most of them are mulching models, which eliminate grass clippings disposal. “PGE wants to make it easy for people to reduce air pollution – right in their own back yards,” said Wayne Lei, PGE director of environmental policy. “With financial help from Metro, and the support of DEQ and the American Lung Association of Oregon, PGE was able to bring back this program after a three-year pause.”

BC study guide During our three or four million years on this planet it can hardly be doubted that thousands of cultural experiments have been made among humans.

People will (ordinarily) put up with being miserable for only so long. It's not the quitters who are extraordinary and mysterious, it's we, who have somehow managed to persuade ourselves that we must persist in our misery whatever the cost and not abandon it even in the face of calamity.

Search Messages Universities and Schools Offering Courses on Complementary and Alternative Medicine As far as nursing schools, many have long incorporated some forms of alternative care into their curricula. According to Phyllis Kritek, director of the doctoral program in nursing at the University of Texas Medical Branch Galveston, "Our discipline has always taken a very holistic approach." For the past two decades practices like massage, nutrition and relaxation techniques have been a part of the undergraduate nursing curriculum at many nursing schools. Some schools like the University of California–San Francisco broadened the traditional nursing mission by offering a course in indigenous healing, exploring American Indian and other cultures, and teaches nurses how best to discuss medical problems with patients from such cultures. Here are number of sites which have some information on the colleges and universities offering complementary and alternative medicine learning in US and UK:

93. Oregon Schools Plundered For Drug War For the first time, the oregon Department of Education had been forced to curtailalternative education programs doing more to save Portland's schools than city http://www.pdxnorml.org/schools.html

Oregon Schools Plundered For Drug War Jails and prisons are the complement of schools; so many less as you have of the latter, so many more you must have of the former. Horace Mann The news articles linked to this page were originally posted here through July 1996 in order to document the school-funding crisis in Portland and Oregon. The intent was to illustrate the need to pass the Oregon Cannabis Tax Act of 1997, which would have raised an estimated $500 million annually for public education. Because insufficient signatures were gathered by the July 5, 1996 deadline, however, a new OCTA campaign has been started. The new initiative, which organizers hope to put on the ballot in November 1998, would dedicate proceeds from sales of cannabis to adults in state package stores to the state's general fund rather than just education. Other reform initiatives may also face voters in the November 1998 election. Thus this page is mostly archival. Most of it is duplicated at the new Oregon Services Plundered for Drug War page, which focuses not just on education but also on other state services such as parks and aid to families, traditional priorities that have been defunded in order to build ever more prisons for ever more marijuana smokers. "According to the [Oregon] Legislative Fiscal Office, in the 1991 biennium, $733 million went to higher education and $593 million to public safety, which includes both the Corrections and Judicial Departments. In the current biennium, $627 million goes to higher education and $752 million to public safety." -
