Welcome to Monday, Sept. 25, National Comic Book Day. Happy birthday to NBA great Scottie Pippen (1965), who also has six championship rings. Today in 1957, Little Rock's Central High School was integrated when nine African-American students were escorted by National Guard troops into the school. Expect morning fog and then mostly sunny skies with a high in the upper 60s. Support your local comic book shop today:
• Shop at Mississippi Avenue stores and support the fire-damaged Columbia River Gorge, as businesses donate a portion of their sales today to the Friends of the Columbia Gorge, all day. mississippiave.com/
• Grab some goodies at the Portland Farmers Market, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Pioneer Courthouse Square. This is the final Monday market until next summer. www.portlandfarmersmarket.org
• Learn to make change happen at the Citizen Activism 101 workshop, 6:30 to 8 p.m., Cedar Mill Community Library, 12505 N.W. Cornell Road. www.facebook.com/Civics-for-Adults-1490728887922036/
