Commuters traveling on the River Path on Tuesday, May 15, will be treated with a FREE breakfast of bagels & coffee, FREE bike bells, FREE bike safety checks provided by Arriving by Bike, and bike resources from the City of Eugene.

Commuters can get all this next to EWEB plaza near the DeFazio Bike Bridge.

Breakfast at the Bridges is designed for path users and commuters to grab a quick bite to eat and a cup of coffee, meet City staff, learn more about transportation in Eugene, and get a bicycle safety check all at the same time. This summer’s first Breakfast at the Bridges coincides with the Business Commute Challenge – a fun and friendly week-long competition where local employers and work-place teams join forces to turn the daily commute into a transportation adventure to think outside the car!

The biggest and brightest full moon of the year arrives Saturday night as our celestial neighbor passes closer to Earth than usual.

But don't expect any "must-have-been-a-full-moon" spike in crime or crazy behavior. That's just folklore.

Saturday's event is a "supermoon," the closest and therefore the biggest and brightest full moon of the year. At 11:34 p.m., the moon will be about 221,802 miles from Earth. That's about 15,300 miles closer than average.

That proximity will make the moon appear about 14 percent bigger than it would if the moon were at its farthest distance, said Geoff Chester of the U.S. Naval Observatory. The difference in appearance is so small that "you'd be very hard-pressed to detect that with the unaided eye," he said.

The moon's distance from Earth varies because it follows an elliptical orbit rather than a circular one.

Like any full moon, the supermoon will look bigger when it's on or near the horizon rather than higher in the sky, thanks to an optical illusion, Chester noted. The full moon appears on the horizon at sunset. On the East coast, for example, that will be a bit before 8 p.m. Saturday.

SPRINGFIELD/EUGENE, Ore. -- Two local community action programs are rallying response to a recent KKK propaganda distribution. Community Alliance of Lane County (CALC) and Back to Back: Allies for Human Dignity (B2B) have organized a counter-leafleting for Wednesday the 18th.

Sunday a neighborhood received fliers accredited to the Ku Klux Klan. Executive Director of CALC Kori Rodley says the group wants to spread a message that "hate activity and language will not be tolerated".

The groups say they will distribute information encouraging individuals to get involved in "combating hate activity". The groups are holding a press conference at Hamlin Middle School parking lot at 4:30 Wednesday afternoon before distributing information.
