In 1845 Overton sold his remaining half of the claim to Francis W. Pettygrove of Portland, Maine. Both Pettygrove and Lovejoy wished to rename "The Clearing" after their respective hometowns (Lovejoy's being Boston, and Pettygrove's, Portland). This controversy was settled with a coin toss that Pettygrove won in a series of two out of three tosses, thereby providing Portland with its namesake. The coin used for this decision, now known as the Portland Penny, is on display in the headquarters of the Oregon Historical Society. At the time of its incorporation on February 8, 1851, Portland had over 800 inhabitants, a steam sawmill, a log cabin hotel, and a newspaper, the Weekly Oregonian. A major fire swept through downtown in August 1873, destroying twenty blocks on the west side of the Willamette along Yamhill and Morrison Streets, and causing $1.3 million in damage. By 1879, the population had grown to 17,500 and by 1890 it had grown to 46,385. In 1888, the city built the first steel bridge built on the West Coast.

Choosing the Right Drug Testing Panel

A "panel" refers to a set of drugs screened in a test. Common panels include the 5-panel, 10-panel, and 12-panel tests, but custom screenings are available too.

What Constitutes a Drug Test?

A drug test involves the analysis of a biological specimen such as urine, hair, blood, sweat, or saliva to check for specific drugs or their metabolites. Major uses include identifying steroids in sports, illegal drug use in workplaces, and alcohol in law enforcement via BAC tests using breathalyzers. Different testing methods vary in accuracy, sensitivity, and detection periods.

Does Passive Smoke Inhalation Result in False Positives for Marijuana?

Inhaling smoke from being near marijuana users does not typically cause a false positive, as lab cut-off levels for detection are set above passive inhalation levels.

Other urine screen anomalies may suggest false negatives or deliberate tampering, such as:

  • Low creatinine levels indicating dilution by excessive fluid intake or water added to the sample.
  • Creatinine combined with specific gravity checks reveals dilution; test labs may color toilet water blue to prevent sample dilution.
  • Enzymes added to samples can affect pH, another test factor.

Drug Detection Timelines

The detection window of a drug test is influenced by several factors, including:

  • Drug quantity consumed
  • Frequency of drug use
  • Drug type
  • Individual's metabolism and health
  • Fluid intake after consumption
  • Level of physical activity post-consumption
  • Genetic differences in drug metabolism

Local Area Info: Portland, Oregon

Portland is the largest and most populous city in the U.S. state of Oregon and the seat of Multnomah County. It is a major port in the Willamette Valley region of the Pacific Northwest, at the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia rivers. As of 2017, Portland had an estimated population of 647,805, making it the 26th-largest city in the United States, and the second-most populous in the Pacific Northwest (after Seattle). Approximately 2.4 million people live in the Portland metropolitan statistical area (MSA), making it the 25th most populous MSA in the United States. Its Combined Statistical Area (CSA) ranks 18th-largest with a population of around 3.2 million. Approximately 60% of Oregon's population resides within the Portland metropolitan area.[a]

Named after Portland, Maine, the Oregon settlement began to be populated in the 1830s near the end of the Oregon Trail. Its water access provided convenient transportation of goods, and the timber industry was a major force in the city's early economy. At the turn of the 20th century, the city had a reputation as one of the most dangerous port cities in the world, a hub for organized crime and racketeering. After the city's economy experienced an industrial boom during World War II, its hard-edged reputation began to dissipate. Beginning in the 1960s, Portland became noted for its growing progressive political values, earning it a reputation as a bastion of counterculture.

The city operates with a commission-based government guided by a mayor and four commissioners as well as Metro, the only directly elected metropolitan planning organization in the United States. The city government is notable for its land-use planning and investment in public transportation. Portland is frequently recognized as one of the world's most environmentally conscious cities because of its high walkability, large community of bicyclists, farm-to-table dining, expansive network of public transportation options, and over 10,000 acres (4,000 hectares) of public parks. Its climate is marked by warm, dry summers and cool, rainy winters. This climate is ideal for growing roses, and Portland has been called the "City of Roses" for over a century.
