Tips to make a yard less attractive to ticks
Backyards are ideal places to spend warm afternoons soaking up some sun. Lazy days in the yard are a big part of what makes warm weather seasons like spring and summer so appealing. But those afternoons can quickly go off the rails when an unwelcome visitor makes its presence known. Ticks can be found worldwide, but the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention notes that only a select few types of ticks transmit bacteria, viruses, parasites, or pathogens that cause diseases in people. Even if...

BMW X6 is the SUV for people who don't really want an SUV
The BMW X6 is part of the latest design trend in SUV bodies. It's a "coupe profile" or really, a fastback. The roof peaks over the driver and front passenger's head and then drops in a smooth curve to the taillights. Like most SUV designs, the X6 has a rear hatch that includes the rear window, four doors, and it's a mid-size vehicle with room for five passengers. The thing about coupe-profile SUVs is that they provide far less cargo capacity than the traditional two-box...

State fire marshal wants Oregonians to do more to protect their homes from wildfires
Climate change is expected to increase both the frequency and intensity of wildfires, according to the U.S. Forest Service. So now, in addition to more dry eastern Oregon wildfires, Oregonians are likely to experience more wildfires in the wetter western part of the state. “Wildfire is not an ‘if,’ but a ‘when,’ living in Oregon,” said Alison Green, a spokeswoman for the Oregon State Fire Marshal. That office wants Oregonians to create more defensible space around their homes. That is: More area between the house and potential wildfire, where vegetation has been modified to reduce the threat and help firefighters defend the house. And the fire marshal has set up a number of new programs to help. Oregon Public Broadcasting is a news partner of the Pamplin Media Group. Find the original story here.

Despite divisive national rhetoric, Oregon legislators of all stripes are realizing the only reliable way out of our housing crisis is through building needed housing. But Oregonians must recognize the critical resources that make this possible. We can’t add...
DMV Administrator: Air travel ID deadline is only a year away, but you may have less time than that

But starting May 7, 2025, your standard Oregon driver license or ID card will no longer get you on a domestic flight.
