 Oregon Judicial Department Appellate Court Opinions
OHSU relies on provisions of the 1995 act which, it explains, were intended to require the transfer to OHSU of all state funds and assets associated with OHSU as a state agency, including funds managed on or behalf of the former state agency.
OHSU's continued participation in PEBB after July 1, 1995, pursuant to section 10, was an express exception to the transfer of functions to OHSU as of July 1, 1995.
We conclude, further, that OHSU is entitled to a proportional share of the demutualization proceeds, and we remand the case to the trial court for a determination of that proportional share.

 Oregon Judicial Department - Publications
OHSU argues that its denial of benefits instead was based on marital status alone, without reference to the sexual orientation of the employees or their domestic partners.
As OHSU contends--and as plaintiffs concede--its practice of denying benefits to domestic partners was based on a definition of eligible family members that applied both to unmarried heterosexual couples and unmarried homosexual couples.
On appeal, OHSU argues that the trial court erred because OHSU's denials did not discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation but instead on the basis of marital status, discrimination that is justified by the entirely rational purpose of promoting the institution of marriage.

In 1945, the school became part of the University of Oregon and the new name was the Dental School of the University of Oregon.
The name was the University of Oregon Health Sciences Center (UOHSC), and the dental school was the UOHSC Dental School.
Besides being a long and awkward name, it was confusing because it implied that the health sciences center was still a part of the University of Oregon, which it was not.

With the USDA, the Oregon Health Sciences University compared flavonoids in fresh, frozen, canned, heated and refrigerated blueberries -- from the same harvested sample to determine the effects of commercial canning on the flavonoid (with antioxidant functions) content of blueberries as compared to fresh blueberries.
The University of Illinois conducted a study in 1997 that found, among other things, that canned fruits and vegetables provide as much dietary fiber as their cooked fresh and frozen counterparts, and are a convenient weapon in helping to combat the risk of heart disease and some types of cancer.
In 2000, the University of Massachusetts executed a study in three separate phases, which found that recipes using canned ingredients are similar in taste and nutritional value to those made with fresh or frozen items.
