1 week ago | bendsource.com | James Neff

Shortly after Travel Oregon’s CEO announced his retirement, the commission that oversees the agency voted to keep him on for a year to help pick his successor and approved a new employment package. But the state agency is now unwilling to share with the public the details of his offer letter. It’s a significant omission because CEO Todd Davidson earns one of the largest salaries among Oregon officials—in 2024, his base salary was $365,574, or $477,264 in total compensation.

When you're smack dab in the middle of a Snowpocalypse, it can be hard to focus on eating healthfully. As everything gets covered in feet upon feet of snow, it's hard not to want the most comforting comfort food you can get your hands on. Personally, mac and cheese, spaghetti covered in provolone and other disturbingly unhealthy choices are my go-to when I'm snowed in. Still, eating that kind of food for an entire season is not sustainable for keeping my hourglass figure.
