The big news in Portland the other day was that there was a swarm of bees on the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall.

A quick glance at today's headlines includes "Man tries to blow up Salem sign with typo on it", "Photos: Police rescue baby red-tailed hawk", "Head of Hanford toxic tank farm abruptly quits", and the top headline of the day, "Illegal Monsanto gene-altered wheat found growing in E. Oregon"
