International   (Mike Riley) The recent election in Iraq, which was heavily disputed due to allegations of fraud, has come under intense scrutiny.

National   (Richard Donin) The FAA recently imposed a moratorium on all new wind projects in the Mid-Columbia region of Oregon.   The reason?   The wind turbines interfere with a military radar site in Fossil.   Wind farms developed by large corporations and private land owners in Wasco, Sherman, Gilliam, Morrow, and Klickitat counties have time-sensitive binding power purchase agreements and a wide variety of contracts in place that could cost the Mid-Columbia region to lose $2-3 billion dollars in new investments, jobs, property taxes, land leases, and other economic activities if the ban is not lifted.  Did the FAA blindside these projects by shutting them down in such a critical stage, and do the landowners have any recourse? What’s the real story here?

Local   (Matt Wingard) The Portland Police Bureau has been under siege for recent actions resulting in numerous deaths.   Portland City Commissioner Dan Saltzman requested further review, and the FBI is now beginning an investigation into at least one specific incident, the fatal police shooting of Aaron Campbell, an unarmed man who was shot in the back earlier this year.   If the investigation finds violations of federal criminal civil rights statutes, what can and should be done to get the police bureau back on track?
