T

he Beaverton Police Department’s Volunteer Program was created to form a working partnership between citizens and the police to enhance communications and assist the Beaverton Police Department in the delivery of quality services.

Our citizen volunteers are a cross-section of the community who have graduated from our Citizens Academy and work on a variety of projects including: Ī Car seat clinics Ī Clerical duties Ī Computer and mapping projects Ī Department tours Ī Distributing emergency food baskets to the needy Ī Home Security Program Ī HomeSafe Program Ī 7UDIŅF 6DIHW\ 7HDP SURMHFWV

The program is not designed to have the volunteer replace professional staff, but is aimed at providing a supplementary and complementary role. Volunteers, when given appropriate training, can supplement present services and become a valuable addition to the Beaverton Police Department.

In 2012 we had an active roster of 72 volunteers who donated more than 6,806 hours – the equivalent of three full-time employees.

The Beaverton Police Department places a high value on the contributions made by our wonderful volunteer staff. If you would like more information about the program, or how to become a volunteer yourself, please contact 503-526-2562.

BRG History

The Beaverton Resource Guide (BRG) is a free monthly community paper written, edited and published in Beaverton, by Beaverton residents and for the businesses and people of Beaverton, Oregon, USA. Cedar House Media published the first edition in April of 2011 featuring local businesses, community news, and the Farmers Market. That first issue was 16 pages. Today, the paper is 32 pages and sponsored by a diverse cross section of public and private community organizations.

BRG Goals

Beaverton has so many positive attributes and many go unnoticed. The BRG is our way of giving back to the community by highlighting what makes our city a great place to live, work and shop. With a focus on small, local businesses, we’d like to encourage our neighbors to first visit nearby stores and give them a chance before moving on to businesses outside our community.

BRG Advertising

With our unique layout, colorful design and exclusive community content, our readers are beyond loyal. Not only do they want to know "What's Happening in Beaverton This Month" but they also agree with our philosophy of: "Shop Local - Give Local - Stay Local."

As a business in the Beaverton area, your ad will be seen by those who are most willing to go out of their way to keep their dollars close to home. These shoppers, your potential new customers, also happen to be our best readers! In addition, we don’t print massive quantities and mail them out to uninterested parties. Our papers are located in convenient and high traffic locations ready to be picked up by those who love Beaverton. With low rates, targeted distribution and a willingness to provide more value than what you pay for, you'll find that we're just as interested in stretching your advertising dollar as you are!

THPRD: connecting people, parks and nature Board OKs new logo that’s clean, simple; rollout to be phased E\ %RE :D\W 7+35'

The Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District Board of Directors have unanimously approved a new logo -- the Âżrst major overhaul of the district symbol since the founding of THPRD in 1955. “We wanted a new logo that is fresh and modern and future-oriented,â€? said THPRD General Manager Doug

Menke. “The one we chose signiÂżes diversity, both in terms of our population makeup and the services we offer. We like how simple and clean and readable it is with bold colors. Plus it has an active look.â€?

The words “Tualatin Hills� are purposely larger than the rest of the Park District name because that’s how many patrons refer to the agency. Another reason was to distinguish THPRD from public agencies with “Tualatin Valley� in their names.

Approval of the logo culminated a creative process that started several months ago when Frank Creative of Portland was chosen as project

consultant. The district reviewed dozens of design options by the contractor and listened to many opinions before narrowing the choices to one.

Because of all the ways a logo is used, and the need to control costs, the district will use a phased approach to rollout. Some applications will be implemented quickly while others will take more time. Full implementation will take years. “We’re excited about this,� Menke said. “It sends a message that we embrace change – even when it comes to our longtime logo. We

aren’t resting on our past. We’re taking on new service and ¿nancial initiatives while also working to better serve our dramatically changed community, and the new logo is part of that spirit of action.�

About THPRD Formed in 1955, THPRD is the largest special park district in Oregon, spanning about 50 square miles and serving 230,000 residents in the greater Beaverton area. The district provides yearround recreational opportunities for people of all ages and abilities.

Offerings include thousands of widely diverse classes, 90 park sites with active recreational amenities, 60 miles of trails, eight swim centers, six recreation centers, and 1,400 acres of natural areas. For more information, visit www.thprd.org or call 503/6456433.

After theft on MAX, deaf man gets new iPad - for free

By FOX 12 Staff

A

week after his iPad was stolen on the MAX, a 62-year-old Beaverton man was surprised with a new one, thanks to generous donations from the community.

The Portland Nerdfighters and Portland Singing Christmas Tree surprised Gary Meierotto with a brand new iPad at the Mac Store in Beaverton.

Meierotto uses his iPad as his primary means of communcation. “This is like a miracle, I’m telling you,� said Meierotto. “Like a miracle.�

The groups spent a week collecting donations from the community to purchase the new device. “We just wanted to make sure he had the very best iPad,� said Willy Dolan with the Portland Singing

Gary Meierotto accepts his new iPad at the Mac Store in Beaverton.

Christmas Tree. “It’s already loaded with everything he needs to communicate with friends and family.

We also got him a nice case so he can hold onto it so nobody can take it from him.�

Meierotto was on an eastbound

MAX train in southeast Portland when two men began being aggressive toward him.

When the train came to a stop at the 102nd Avenue transit station, one of the suspects grabbed the iPad right out of Meierotto’s hands

and ran off the train.

Police have not recovered his stolen iPad, but now that he has a new one he can once again communicate with family and friends out of town. “For the Portland Singing Christmas Tree, he’s a gentleman who comes to our shows every year and he’s our biggest supporter in terms of enthusiasm and love,� said Dolan. “He’s an amazing man.�

Meierotto’s new iPad is loaded with security features including tracking software and password protection.

Look for stories like these every night on “The 10 O’clock News� on FOX 12.

Why do we wait until the last minute? Why is procrastination a dominant force? Why did you know you had a project due in college on X Day‌and you waited until the night before to get it done?

6RPHWKLQJ KDSSHQV LQ WKH ŅQDO few minutes of a game. It’s time WR ņ\čWKHUH LV PRUH XUJHQF\ that’s for sure. Players, coaches, sales people, service experts, sales

managers, owners‌we bring out that extra effort that we have held in reserve.

It’s the 4th Quarter! How has the game gone for you this year?

OK? Amazing? Terrible?

Well, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not too late to improve on all of thatâ&#x20AC;Śand WIN! <RX GHĹ&#x2026;QH :,1ÄŤDQG WKH HIIRUW you and your team will put forth for the rest of the game!

Lace Up Your Shoesâ&#x20AC;ŚGet Your Game Face Onâ&#x20AC;ŚAnd Take The Court. The Sidelines Are No Fun!! Â&#x201E;

KJ "It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled."

KJ "Fleas can be taught nearly anything that a Congressman can."

KJ "God created war so that Americans would learn geography."

KJ "Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first."

KJ "A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes."

KJ "An honest man in politics shines more there than he would elsewhere."

KJ "I am quite sure now that often, very often, in matters concerning religion and politics a man's reasoning powers are not above the monkey's."

KJ "All Congresses and Parliaments have a kindly feeling for idiots, and a compassion for them, on account of personal experience and heredity."

KJ "Patriot: the person who can holler the loudest without knowing what he is hollering about."

KJ "Loyalty to country ALWAYS. Loyalty to government, when it deserves it."

3D printing begins with a 3D

drawing made in a computer. The printing program then cuts that 3D drawing into very small, very thin horizontal sections, and each section is printed and stacked, one on top of the other. Most architectural 3D printers use paper, but some printers also accept metal, plastics or even ceramic. When the printing is complete, the model is a freestanding work of art.

3D printing is also relatively inexpensive. While it might take a craftsman days in order to build a model to scale, a printer might be able to spit out a completed project in a matter of hours! Â&#x201E;

that made it an ideal location to headquarter our company, but I especially appreciated that it had a solid balance of modern inďŹ&#x201A;uence, community, and accessibility. It's exceptionally close to public transit and near a main highway which provides easy access for staff and clients while simultaneously offering a community-oriented atmosphere.

Q: How was the transition into The Round?

SKB (the local real estate private equity ďŹ rm who owns The Round) was wonderful to work with. They saw our vision and supported us through the whole transition process.

Q: Timothy, why did you move your headquarters to The Round?

My goal was to ďŹ nd a larger and affordable creative space that also offered other necessary qualities to suit the company's needs. The Round proved to be an accommodating location for both staff and clients in terms of convenience and community.

Tim also noted that he is one of the few established ďŹ rms operating on both a local and national scale within the Portland-Metro area that specializes in architectural 3D printing.

Congratulations Tim and the whole team at BOGZA! We love having you in The Round community.

I

have a confession. I loathe bell peppers! Admitting this often makes me feel like a failure as a vegetarian but I am afraid that it is the truth. Red, yellow, green – it doesn’t matter. If you want to kill a pizza for me, top it with bell peppers. When I tell this to people they are often appalled that I won’t make an exception for roasted peppers, which they seem to think do not taste like bell peppers. Ugh! The mere thought of it makes my stomach churn. There is only one recipe in which I can tolerate bell peppers and that is in this salad from my friend Liz, a cooking instructor in San Diego. The tasty sweet and sour dressing does something to the peppers to make them acceptable to my taste buds.

The linguini is tender but not soft. The mix of seafood is cooked to perfection, delicate and robust.

adds savory delight to the pie.

The cheeses are not overdone.

With this style of pizza, too much cheese can ruin how the crust cooks. Well done, molte grazie!

My sincerest kudos to Dana, Warren and Victor, the head chef, for inviting me to their establishment. Nothing makes great food taste better that great friendly service. Trust me on this one, folks, B.J. Willyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s is doing a fantastic job; their addition to Progress Ridge is to our advantage.

rt On Broadway announces a new exhibit titled “Nature Inspired” featuring work by Elaine Tan and Gretha Lindwood. Tan’s artfully handcrafted jewelry and Lindwood’s evocative paintings in oils or pastels celebrate the diversity of the individual artists’ engagement with nature. The public is invited to a reception to honor the artists and their work Sat., Nov. 9, from 6pm to 9pm. Complimentary wine and refreshments will be served. The show continues through Nov. 30.

Tan explains, “Born and raised in Hong Kong, I bring with me a multi-cultural sensitivity to my art.

One of my passions is the process of weaving together a symphony of colors, textures and design. To me, nature itself is art in its purest form. That is why I love to combine the use of natural semi-precious stones, organic materials, metals, stones and other materials to create a design that displays a delicate mix of balance vs. asymmetry, simplicity vs. complexity, much like the balancing of “yin and yang”.

Lindwood’s love of nature is evident in her landscape paintings.

Working with oil paints on canvas or pastels on sand paper, Lindwood paints primarily en plein air, a French term meaning in the open air. She points out, “My Swedish parents made sure my sister and I received plenty of fresh air and playtime outside, and we went on many family hikes and campouts.

I guess I was destined to work outside.” She adds, “I often hear comments about how a viewer can imagine themselves in the scene I’ve painted.” By Gretha Lindwood

Located at 12570 SW Broadway Street, Beaverton, Oregon, Art On Broadway is within walking distance of the Max stop at Beaverton Round and just a few doors west of the Beaverton History Center. Open Tuesday through Saturday 11am to 5 pm.

ost high schoolers start off their working careers by Ĺ&#x2026;QGLQJ SDUW WLPH ZRUN Ĺ&#x2020;LSSLQJ burgers or busing tables. Rare is the teenager - or adult, for that matter - who can make money off their artwork, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exactly what Beaverton High School junior Patrick Takata has accomplished.

Takata has been doing art for three years now, dabbling in painting, abstract drawing, and VJUDIĹ&#x2026;WR D NLQG RI GUDZLQJ ZKHUH the artist scratches an outline GUDZLQJ LQWR XQĹ&#x2026;UHG FHUDPLFV RU plaster.

Depending on the size, it usually takes Takata one to two days to Ĺ&#x2026;QLVK D SLHFH +H VROG KLV Ĺ&#x2026;UVW SDLQWLQJ LQ June of this year. Since then, he has sold four more paintings to various buyers. Recently, he set a new record for himself, selling a painting for a personal high of $135. It was the largest piece heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sold yet at 16 inches by 20 inches, done in acrylic paints. Inspired by his love for music, he painted a stylized Daft Punk helmet after one of his favorite bands.

Originally, he had made a smaller version of the painting and posted a photo of it on instagram, where he showcases much of his work. One of his followers saw the picture and responded, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love this! Could you make a larger version?â&#x20AC;? to which Takata gave an enthusiastic â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yes!â&#x20AC;?

Not only does Takata sell his artwork, he also sells T-shirts with his good friend, Andrei Eugenio, another junior at Beaverton High. Takata and Eugenio have been in the T-shirt business together for two years now.

They use a silk screen on polyester cotton shirts to do their prints. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We can create any design as long as it FDQ EH VLPSOLĹ&#x2026;HG ÄŚ said Takata. So far, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve sold over 500 shirts at $15 dollars each.

steps you can take to ensure your purchase will be a wise one.

1. Look around you on the highways and parking lots.

If you see a certain vehicle in abundance on the roads, it usually means the car has a good track record and that's why it stays on the road longer.

2. Do your own research. Hundreds of publications list the reliability of efore you hand over your hardvehicles. "Consumer HDUQHG FDVK \RX Ĺ&#x2026;UVW PXVW Reports" tests the SUHSDUH 7KH LQĹ&#x2026;QLWH YDULDEOHV WKDW reliability of thousands accompany a used car purchase of products every year, FDQ PDNH WKLV HYHQ PRUH GLIĹ&#x2026;FXOW and automobiles are On the preliminary list of "needto-knows" are a used car's make, one of their specialties.

have a good bit of a factory warranty remaining. A good consideration for this vehicle may be purchasing an extended warranty or mechanical breakdown insurance policy.

4. Why do you need it? How many miles do you think youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be putting on the car? If it's reliability you need, your decision is easy. If you need a reliable vehicle that also has dual airbags, seven cup holders and a four-speed automatic, these details will further narrow down your search and make the choice even easier. So take into account your needs when you research models so you know what is standard fare on the vehicle in question.

5. Unlike new cars, used cars can't be ordered to your preference.

In some ways, you have to "luck out" to get the ideal vehicle. But keeping your eyes and ears open helps. Start your used-car search, before your vehicle need is critical so you can keep your options open DQG SRVVLEO\ VWXPEOH XSRQ D VZHHW GHDO

6. Lastly, like the commercial says, always ask to see the CARFAX on any pre-owned vehicle you may be considering. This could prevent you from purchasing someone else's headache. Â&#x201E;

2 Programs Thanking our Military

By BPD Staff Service Members

t shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come as a surprise to anyone that we celebrate Thanksgiving during the same month that we honor our military veterans past and present for their VHUYLFH GHGLFDWLRQ DQG VDFULĹ&#x2026;FHV Memorial Day is a time of UHĹ&#x2020;HFWLRQ GXULQJ ZKLFK ZH SD\ homage to those men and women who serve around the world to protect our freedoms.

Thanksgiving, here and in Canada, is a day of giving thanks for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year. Most people use this time as a general expression of appreciation for all of our perceived blesssings.

Each day provides an excellent RSSRUWXQLW\ WR QRW RQO\ UHĹ&#x2020;HFW on blessings and military service but also to remember the families of those serving our country, especially abroad.

The City of Beaverton and the police department recognize the military contribution in multiple ways: The Military Mentor Academy The Military Mentor Academy is offered to current or former military service members interested in a career in law enforcement. The police department offers a comprehensive three week program outlining the job responsibilities and processes involved with becoming a police RIĹ&#x2026;FHU 7RSLFV WR EH FRYHUHG include hiring requirements, SDWURO LQYHVWLJDWLRQV DQG WUDIĹ&#x2026;F enforcement. Resume preparation and networking opportunities are also discussed. Interested parties should access the cities web site for

further information and to sign up.

The Armed Forces Banner Program The Armed Forces Banner Program was initiated by the City RI %HDYHUWRQ DQG IRUPHU 2IĹ&#x2026;FHU James Cummo. The program is intended to recognize and honor Beavertons active-duty military personnel. The program began with seed money from the city and depends upon community donations and sponsorships which support the purchase and placement of banners in Beaverton along north and southbound Murray Blvd. from Southwest Allen to Scholls Ferry Rd. The banners will include the servicepersons name and military branch. Honorees must be active duty military personnel of the U.S. Armed Forces and be a current Beaverton resident. Applications are located on the cities web site.

Within in our own ranks over 25% of the sworn personnel were or are in the military and we are proud that they traded in their Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine or Coast Guard garb to become RIĹ&#x2026;FHUV KHUH Â&#x201E;

The tree and gifts will go to kids staying at the Doernbecher Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital at OHSU. Â&#x201E;

I

know that I am not alone in my adoration of animated movies. Ever since I was little, movies made by Disney, Dreamworks, and Pixar have always fascinated and entertained me with their beautiful art and magical plots. In fact, I have many fond memories of watching movie after movie in marathon sessions with my older brother which was sometimes even more entertaining than seeingg them in theaters. But out ut of all of the talented creators off the scores of animated movies Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve â&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been privileged to see, Hayao Miyazaki will always be my favorite. As a writer, director and nd producer, Miyazaki not only entertained ntertained me as no other can but ut he also gave my imagination wings to soar to new heights and new ew places.

This past September however, with Miyazaki announcing his retirement, etirement, I would like to celebrate his is work and to urge any of my ellow teens to do the same: watch fellow RPH RI KLV Ĺ&#x2026;OPV \RX KDYHQÄŁW VHHQ VRPH RI KLV Ĺ&#x2026;OPV \RX KDYHQÄŁW VHHQ et or rewatch the ones you have. yet Talk about them, share them or if ouâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re like me, say a prayer thanking youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re he man who brought me along on so the many wonderful journeys to places soo unique and gorgeously drawn hat somewhere in my imagination, that I know they exist.

7KH FUHDWHG E\ E\ +D\DR 7KH Ĺ&#x2026;OPV Ĺ&#x2026;OPV FUHDWHG +D\DR Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli are lways extremely clever and always niquely creative. For example, uniquely pirited Away is about a young Spirited irl forced to work for spirits in girl a bathhouse after her parents are XUQHG LQWR SLJV 7KDW Ĺ&#x2026;OP ZRQ DQ WXUQHG LQWR SLJV 7KDW Ĺ&#x2026;OP ZRQ DQ Academy Award, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s obvious why: it has a gorgeous combination illustrations off detailed illustrations, a masterpiece soundtrack, and exciting writing. My favorite 0L\D]DNL Ĺ&#x2026;OP KRZHYHU LV +RZOÄŁV Moving Castle, which follows the adventures of a teenaged girl who is turned into an old women and then befriends a strange wizard. The combination of fantasy, steam-punk styled setting, and historical details make it so much fun to watch!

One aspect I really appreciate DERXW 0L\D]DNLÄŁV Ĺ&#x2026;OPV LV WKH IDFW that he uses female protagonists... and they arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t all princesses!

In a lot of Hollywood movies, HVSHFLDOO\ 'LVQH\ Ĺ&#x2026;OPV LW VHHPV that every heroine has to be royal, which is a bit overused in my opinion. Miyazaki created girls

with strong qualities and bright minds, and they did not have to be nobility. I think that PDNHV KLV Ĺ&#x2026;OPV PRUH appealing to an older audience, since us teens donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need the usual â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;fairy taleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; mold to be excited about a movie. Miyazaki sometimes also focuses on stories involving important social issues like helping the environment. Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, for example, is clear in its message p p of all ages g that the Earth to people must be cared for and protected.

Tales of a Beaverton Super-Mom: Now that's Embarrassing!

I

t appears that my current purpose in life is to embarrass my 6th grader. Initially I could pinpoint my transgressions to some of my more outrageous behaviors, such as humming along to the music playing in the grocery store, waving at someone I THOUGHT I knew but actually DIDNâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;T, or having the audacity to ASK a question when I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand. Now, though, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m getting a bit confused about what causes the humiliation: some days itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve dressed too hipster and some days because Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m too dowdy; often itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s from making a joke WKDW 12 21( XQGHUVWDQGV H[FHSW PH ZKR ODXJKV K\VWHULFDOO\ RU making a joke that is â&#x20AC;&#x153;TOO funnyâ&#x20AC;?

GLG QRW HYHQ NQRZ VXFK D FDWHJRU\ H[LVWHG 7KHQ WKHUH KDYH DFWXDOO\ been times where Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m shunned because I turned to the right instead

of the left when someone calls my name. And the only reason I can tolerate all this nonsense is because I GET it. I get how life looks when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re 11 and somewhere between JHWWLQJ \RXU Ĺ&#x2026;UVW DSDUWPHQW DQG still enjoying being tucked in at night--and your mom is that crazy lady who, while she remains your DEVROXWH EHVW FRQĹ&#x2026;GDQWH LV DOVR \RXU biggest social fear. But that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean there are some days I wish my daughter would get that just yesterday I was rockinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; it in my acidwashed jeans and Bomber jacketâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; and that I, too, would have died had my mom attempted to sing along to Def Leppard in public.

Fortunately, I still donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t embarrass my 9 yr-old, who actually requests to hear about my uber-interesting life.

Recently she was quizzing me on my marital history, and I was enjoying the little trot down memory laneâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; remembering the good, the bad, the things that happen when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re together 20 years. I thought the FRQYHUVDWLRQ ZRXOG LQVSLUH KHU WR Ĺ&#x2026;QG someone as wonderful as her father someday, but when I asked why she was contemplating this topic so much, she replied, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sure Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m

ever going to get married. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m WAY too happy now.â&#x20AC;? Alrighty then. Some stellar modeling has obviously gone on here. Then she adds, â&#x20AC;&#x153;By the way, how do you STAND wearing that BRA???â&#x20AC;? Well, honey, the truth is itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of like marriage. Sometimes it gets uncomfortable but you simply learn to deal with it.

Often itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the 4 yr-old who keeps me grounded and reminds me that life will never get better than this: playing incessant imaginary games IRU LQĹ&#x2026;QLW\ WKDW KDYH QR EHJLQQLQJ or end or purpose to speak ofâ&#x20AC;Śother than the entertainment I get from listening to her perspective on life as she talks through her dollies. We had the piano tuner here last week and Kiana was on her best behavior, so I was surprised when he remarked, ÄĽ%R\ \RXÄŁYH JRW D Ĺ&#x2026;UHFUDFNHU ZLWK that one!! If your other two are like that, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how you survive!â&#x20AC;?

I gave him my confused smileâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; something Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m becoming quite skilled atâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and pondered what in the world he expected of a 4 yr-old.
