SUPPORT THE MORROW PACIFIC COAL EXPORT PROJECT
The proposed Morrow Pacific coal export project will create thousands of much needed construction related jobs and ongoing operations related jobs . It will pay more than $4 million in taxes annually to Columbia & Morrow Counties and contribute about $800,000 a year to K-12 schools in each county.
This project has been designed to meet or exceed all state and federal regulations to protect air and water quality and fish and wildlife habitats. The unloading and storage facilities will be completely enclosed and specially built covered barges will move the coal downriver to the Port of St. Helens. From there, an enclosed transloader will transfer coal to the covered holds of oceangoing vessels.
This project is vital to our communities. Learn more and show your support for this project !

PRESCRIPTION SAVINGS AT COSTCO |
|
|
|
|
Consumer Reports went shopping at 200 pharmacies across the country for a month's supply of five prescription drugs that just went generic: Actos for diabetes, Lexapro for depression, Singulair for asthma, Plavix for blood thinning, and Lipitor for high cholesterol.
What they found was a $749 difference -- that's 447% -- between the $916 price tag at CVS (CVS +0.09%) and the $167 that Costco charged for the same five drugs. For generic Lipitor alone CVS charged $150 to Costco's $17. The generic Lexapro found at CVS for $126 could be had at Costco for $7.
Why such a big difference? Because CVS, Rite Aid (RAD -0.87%) and Walgreen (WAG +0.71%) draw most of their profits from the pharmacy, while Costco, Sam's Club and other discount stores consider their pharmacies throw-ins that help bulk up foot traffic.
