Treasury Notes. Treasury notes are intermediate term debt securities sold by the Treasury. Initial terms for notes are 2, 3, 5, 7 and 10 years. A Treasury note pays a fixed rate of interest -- the coupon rate -- which is paid to an investor semi-annually.
Mount Hood (45.4N, 121.7W) is the tallest mountain in Oregon (11,237 feet, 3,426 m) and popular with skiers, hikers, and climbers. It is 45 miles (75 km) east-southeast of Portland, Oregon. Mount Hood is a stratovolcano made of lava flows, domes, and volcaniclastic deposits. Most of the volcano is andesite composition. The main cone of Mount Hood formed about 500,000 years ago. In the last 15,000 years the volcano has had four eruptive periods.
Mount Hood's last major eruption occurred in the 1790's not long before Lewis and Clark's expedition to the Pacific Northwest. In the mid-1800's, local residents reported minor explosive activity, but since that time the volcano has been quiet.Someday, however, Mount Hood will erupt again.ount Hood's last major eruption occurred in the 1790's not long before Lewis and Clark's expedition to the Pacific Northwest.
