    By Rich Shulman

    A man who would only be identified as 'Redeye' singing a rendition of Sublime's 'Two Joints' during karaoke night at the Cannabis Cafe in Portland, Ore., in a picture taken on May 5 and released today. The cafe has farmer's markets of donated weed-laden goodies, a weekly comedy show and even an employees' night. On Thursdays, it's karaoke. An ill-lit stage catches an occasional cloud of puffy white smoke blown from a pipe or a bong or a vaporizer.

    Free weed, free tunes: Ore. pot bar hosts karaoke

    AP reports: It's karaoke night at Portland's Cannabis Cafe, a combination of the bar from Cheers and a street-side pot palace in Amsterdam. It is perfectly legal in this smoky room for medical marijuana patients to burn, eat, rub, filter and roll marijuana.

    There are cancer patients, AIDS patients and sufferers of smashed vertebrae and pinched nerves. There are also those who find refuge under Oregon's "severe pain" allowance — tell a marijuana-friendly doctor you've got pain, and you've pretty much got weed. Continue reading.

    Hooray for Spring! The season makes a welcome appearance at an Oregon tulip festival

    By Carissa Ray

    While many parts of the country are still dealing with cold temperatures or reeling from storms this season, it's nice to see some springtime sunshine.

    This is my cousin's child, and my first time seeing her. What a treat! I sure hope they come to visit, even if all the tulips are in Oregon...Kaela, you are a ray of sunshine!

    This May 3, 2009 file photo provided by Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife shows wolf coordinator Russ Morgan with a wolf as it recovers from anesthesia used during a radio-collaring effort in Northeastern Oregon. The Oregon Cattlemen's Association is pressing a package of bills in the Oregon Legislature to allow ranchers to shoot wolves attacking livestock, and pay ranchers for sheep and cattle lost to wolves.

    Seeing a wolf this close to a person helps to show how big wolves can be. There's some more information about the bills concerning wolves in the Oregon legislature on this page.

    I don't particularly like wolves but if I'm going to pay for the livestock the wolves kill then the ranchers should pay for the wolves they kill; at replacement cost for both. Wolves get to stay; that was the vote.

    A captive western screech owl looks out of an enclosure at the Wildlife Safari wildlife park in Winston, Ore., on Dec. 15.

    Screech owl eyes the camera in Oregon

    By Carissa Ray

    We've certainly seen similar images of owls before, and even joke at the (perhaps overused) default headline of animal images framed this way of "The eyes have it."

    That said, I really like the depth of field choice made by one of our regular and favorite contributing animal photographers Robin Loznak. And in this case, it certainly is all about the eyes - and if you look closely you can catch a glimpse of Robin too.

    For more animal photos check out this week's edition of Animal Tracks.

    A person walks in Pioneer Courthouse Square, the site of an attempted bombing Nov. 27, in Portland, Ore. A Somali-born teenager, Mohamed Osman Mohamud was arrested and charged with attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction when the previous night he allegedly attempted to set off a car bomb during Christmas tree lighting ceremony in the park. It was reported that civilians were not at risk because the bomb was supplied to him by undercover federal agents and the explosives were inert.

    Vanessa Crone and Paul Poirier from Canada compete during the Ice Dance-Free Dance of the 2010 Skate America in Portland, Ore., on Nov. 14.

    Don't worry. I've got you...I think.

    By Katie Cannon, Senior Multimedia Editor

    Photographer Gabriel Bouys caught this moment that struck me as quite humorous (as long as nobody got hurt, that is). I guess Crone and Poirier were more confident about this move than what it looks like they are, as the pair won silver. Read more about the Skate America ice dance results here.

    Good to hear back from you, Lola3, thanks for your valued expert opinion. Let's hope all went well for this skating duo, and that they move on with this Silver to the next round with an air of confidence, as competition will be tight as we progress to The Finals. I've often thought Roller Derby wou …
