Postcard from Portland

In Portland:

• One of the country's most progressive mayors explained why he shut down Occupy Portland. "It turned into a brawl over Porta Pottis and crime," Sam Adams told the Los Angeles Times.
• Un-Occupy Portland signals their distaste for Occupy Portland with signs like 'I'm bored and easily influenced' and 'Un-Occupy Portland: The 98.999% for Portland Police, Taxpayers and the City's Budget.'
• Are server farms Oregon's biggest growth industry?
• A mother searches for her missing 30-year-old son, who disappeared in the most unsettling of ways.
• Two radio stations vie to be the city's premier all-Christmas-music, all-the-time station.
