Fusion Centers, Have you heard of them? No-o-o not a new type of food cart or a place to blend teas. But Oregon does have 2 of them. They are Secret Surveillance Centers started by the Department of Homeland Security, "Fusing" intelligence gathered by local state and federal law enforcement and then helping to coordinate response. Paired with local Joint Terrorism Task Forces, they try to keep their locations & their influence hidden but their impact is huge. KBOO host and investigative reporter, Linda Olson-Osterlund, reports on the newest fusion center in Oregon. Its location and its actions.

Did the "Black" vote matter? Do OUR issues matter?

It's a collection of colorfully illustrated essays that examines various aspects of the career of 19th-century naturalist David Douglas, demonstrating the connections between his work in the Pacific Northwest of the 19th century and the place we know today. Along the way he explores the turbulent mouth of the Columbia with a bar pilot, tastes traditional food plants from Coast and Plateau cultures, and watches set fires open up crowded oak woodlands.
