ovember is a special time for the citizens of the city known as MAC. The recent lottery has given us a list of people who are anxious to join. The successful lottery allows slots to be filled by new individuals as David DeBlasio others depart the club.

Secretary MAC members need to remember that our population is not increasing with the introduction of new members. We are simply replacing those who leave the club for any number of reasons. The continued popularity of the lottery is a testament to the quality of MAC programs. Given the usual attrition, we can expect the newest batch of member to enter the club in the first few months of the new year.

Visit new neighborhoods Your MAC trustees continue in their efforts to introduce members to new neighborhoods within the community. MAC Bingo Night on Monday, Nov. 3, is a free event for those who have earned Bingo cards.

The opportunities available on the bingo card are meant to encourage members to visit areas of the club they may not otherwise consider. Did you try something new this year?

Popularity and changes The reason the club continues to be so popular is its ability to respond to the changing expectations of its members. I am not a legacy member. I am pre-lottery, but have seen the club’s response to member input and requests result in the creation of programs no one considered just a few years ago.

Some programs have disappeared, but they have been replaced by activities responsive to members’ desires. Not long ago, we had no Climbing Gym, ski program or Pilates Studio. Neither did we have a dance program or table tennis events. The response to your desires is what has kept the club strong. Each of the above activities began in response to members’ interest.

There remain, of course, consistently popular athletic programs like swimming, gymnastics, squash, handball, racquetball and tennis, but the club will continue to address members’ preferences and respond. The dance and Pilates programs are relatively new, but each was implemented in response to member interest. If you have an activity

that you feel we are missing, show us the interest, and there is a good likelihood we can find a place for you.

Junior programs It was not very long ago that there was no such thing as Family Fridays. In fact, I have been told by more than one member that their hesitant spouse agreed to enter the lottery because of the events for juniors.

President Darcy Henderson has appointed a new committee to improve the options for our high school members. We have a deficiency in programs for juniors, and we know it, but the board is determined to address this weakness.

Food and Beverage I can remember when members were apprehensive about holding business meetings at the club. Not anymore. Our food and beverage program continues to grow. This Thanksgiving, the club will serve hundreds of meals, including an incredible number of Thanksgiving takeout meals – see page 13 for more details.

Your community for your needs The MAC is your city for life. The board and management will continue to listen to you and attempt to respond to every comment or request you make. Take advantage of the resources of your city known as MAC. Try something new in one of the intramural activities. Use your library and its lectures, presentations and programs.

Your board and attention to detail I’ve had the pleasure of serving on numerous committees during my years at the club, but I was not prepared to deal with the details delivered to the trustees before each monthly meeting and almost daily in between. Every inquiry, be it an email, letter or sounding board comment, is responded to by the appropriate department or individual. We discuss every concern and are proud of the follow-up by staff or a particular trustee.

While it’s sometimes hard to walk through the lobby without getting interrupted by a member who has a question or comment, it’s gratifying to see that members care so much about their city known as MAC.

Happy Holidays President Darcy Henderson (aka the Mayor of the City known as MAC) and the MAC Board of Trustees wish to extend to each of you a happy Thanksgiving. We also hope to see you at the Holiday Open House, just after Thanksgiving, on Thursday, Dec. 4. WM November 2014

have been friends with Rick, who lives in Los Angeles, for more than 25 years. In that time, he’s been a graphic artist, entrepreneur, a servant of God, a barbecue chef extraordinaire and father of five. Needless to say, Norm Rich he always has a great General Manager story to share when we get together. But his latest tale was so inspiring, I need to share it with you.

Rick’s son Luke recently cycled from San Diego to Portland, a 1,300-mile trip with 58,000 feet of climbing, to begin living his dream. What do I mean by saying, “He began living his dream”? After shutting down his 17-year-old business and packing up his family, Luke is riding his bike across America with his wife and two boys following in an RV. His ride across America is a benefit for a charity he created – Stop SAM – which works to end severe acute malnutrition. The organization’s website is stopsam.org.

Why did Luke decide to do this ride? It started a few years ago when he was lacking the passion he once had for his business as a brand specialist and graphic designer.

He was putting on a dangerous amount of weight, tipping the scales at 340 pounds. His doctor told him to lose weight or suffer the consequences. Luke got serious and took up cycling to get fit. He needed another cause to keep him focused, motivated and give him a new vocation. He raised money to begin his dream. Before he left San Diego on his ride, Luke had dropped to 180 pounds, raised enough money to fully fund his journey, and reached across America to publicize his cause. Luke has titled his ride Cycle Cause.

You can visit CycleCause.com to follow his progress.

Luke stopped and visited with us a few months ago, just before peddling out of Portland toward Mount Hood. After 82 miles miles later and a beer with a buddy who drove down from Seattle for this leg of the ride, Luke arrived safely with time to email us that his journey was on track. A huge shout out is due to his wife, Dalia, and sons Andrew and Ayden for changing their course in life to keep their family together and experience something most people will

not or cannot risk. I can think of no better family time together. Once Luke cycles into New York City and his family joins him in celebration of this meaningful ride, they will take their time driving back to the West Coast, stopping along the way to share their stories and raise more money to stop severe acute malnutrition. Luke is cycling 5,000 miles and attempting to save 5,000 lives through his fundraising efforts.

Once his trip is concluded, Luke hopes to join a nonprofit to use first-hand learning experiences and skills to help others. I have invited Luke back to Portland to speak with our membership once the trip is concluded so you can learn firsthand what drove him to change course midstream and begin channeling his energies toward other infectious causes.

I know our MAC cycling community realizes what an ambitious ride Luke is making. I only wish I knew more about his ride before he peddled into Portland, as I would have liked to invite our MAC community to meet him. Many in our cycling community and individual cyclists commit themselves to aggressive and dedicated training to better themselves; others within the community cycle just for fun or the beauty of it all.

New York State of Mind Fast forward to early October: Luke crossed the George Washington Bridge and pedaled into New York City. His journey took 59 days – but he’s not finished yet.

Luke’s trip clocked in at about 4,200 miles, so during the family’s return trip to Southern California, he’s racking up more miles to surpass his goal of 5,000. The family plans to take about eight weeks on the return trip, with many stops to raise awareness for Stop SAM. As we begin the countdown to Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah and the new year, and well-deserved time with family and friends, I want to take the opportunity to wish you a joyous holiday season.

In my opinion, this is the time of year we all look forward to for the festivities, tastes and smells of the season that have become so meaningful and memorable. To my personal and professional families, I wish you all the joy and happiness that the season can bring to you and your loved ones. WM November 2014

Doing what I love, thanks to OHSU.

I injured my back when I was 27. Off and on, I endured extraordinary pain. Then I discovered the OHSU Spine Center. The difference was in their team approach: They made me feel welcome, listened, provided options and empowered me with the tools to take control of the pain myself. OHSU gave me the chance to take back my life, without surgery or medication. And now, look what I’m able to do: What I love. That’s what life’s all about.

U

gh, November.

Got to get moving on holiday planning. How many people are we expecting? Are the travel arrangements finalized? Turkey, ham or prime rib?

If this month is typical of every Darrell November at MAC, Duvauchelle many of you are about Fitness Manager to start spending more and more time stocking up at Whole Foods, pinning on Pinterest, party planning, and, for the extremely organized (who both amaze and annoy me), holiday shopping. These are all normal activities, but also are the main reasons we won’t see many of you from roughly Nov. 15 until Jan. 4.

While it’s easy to make your health a lower priority this time of year, here are a few tips to keep from being a total stranger to the E&C Room this holiday season.

• Find a partner: Know someone else who also gets consumed by their to-do list? Keep each other accountable for at least showing up. Once you’re here, working out is easier.

• Put it on your calendar: Rather than leaving your workout schedule to chance, be proactive and set a dedicated time to come here.

• Consider Early Bird hours: Change your schedule to work out earlier before anyone in your family gets out of bed.

• Hire a fitness angel. MAC personal trainers are here to preserve and even improve your fitness level during the holidays. Yes, really, I said improve.

Reduce the stress, guilt or bloating associated with this season by keeping your body active and engaged. You’ll need the extra strength and endurance when you’re wrestling in the bargain sweater bin with the hoards of rabid shoppers on Black Friday.

Cold and Flu Season While working out regularly enhances your immune function, there are further precautions you can take while you’re here to minimize the risk of catching a cold or flu. Wiping down the machines and benches with sanitary wipes (nine gym-wipe canisters are located around the E&C Room) or disinfectant spray, both before and after use, dilutes or kills germs. A weight room instructor can assist you if necessary. Use clean towels instead of your hand to wipe sweat from your face. And finally, if you feel a cold or flu coming on, don’t come here to try “sweating it out” to get better. Take a couple of rest days at home; your fellow members will appreciate you for it. WM

FACES IN THE CLUB The Cascade Collegiate Conference offices announced that Concordia University senior men’s basketball player Anthony Holton has been selected as the CCC finalist for the NAIA’s Dr. LeRoy Walker Champions of Character Award, one of the most prestigious awards in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics.

Holton, an intermediate member at MAC, averaged 9 points and 3.4 rebounds for the Cavaliers last season, and finished in the top five on the team in points, steals, blocks, assists, rebounds and free throws. Holton also has educated students on financial issues as an intern with Thrivent Financial, is Concordia men’s basketball representative for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and travelled to the Republic of Moldova last summer to volunteer at basketball clinics for the urban youth of the capital city, Chisinau, and complete humanitarian work. Throughout the year, Holton also participated in Night Strike, volunteering to work with the homeless population of downtown Portland.

To submit information for Faces in the Club, contact Communications Manager Tony Roberts at 503-517-7220 or troberts@themac.com.

Senior member Lainie Block Wilker was honored to participate in the Clinton Global Initiative on behalf of Treehouse Island, an educational technology company that teaches job-ready skills for in-demand tech jobs.

Valdez regularly gives presentations to the community and local schools. She was born in Michoacan, Mexico, spent several years in California migrant camps, and lived in the rough Pilsen neighborhood in Chicago before attending Brown University.

Intermediate member Stephen Holt signed an NBA contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers last month. The 6-4 guard lettered in four consecutive seasons at St. Mary’s, where he finished his college career just one steal shy of the school record. He finished college ranked fourth in made free throws, fifth in games played, 10th in free throw percentage, 10th in assists and 10th in scoring at St. Mary’s, and was captain of the team his senior year.

Before signing with the Cavs, Holt average 8.6 points, 2.6 rebounds, 2 assists and 1.2 steal for the Atlanta Hawks summer league team.

Holt went to high school at Jesuit, where he led the Crusaders to two consecutive state titles.

Sara Genta, BSN RN CFCN, is the new nurse running MAC’s foot clinic. Genta runs foot clinics throughout the Portland area, and is a certified foot care nurse.

She enjoys community health nursing, focusing on challenges to both the elderly and diabetic populations. In addition to working at her clinic sites and doing house calls, Genta does foot care on Wednesdays at the St. James Foot Clinic in downtown Portland.

Genta received her bachelor of science in nursing from Concordia University in Portland, and her bachelor of arts from Bryn Mawr College.

MAC’s foot clinic is held on the first and third Monday and Tuesday of each month.

In Memoriam Russell Lee Belknap Feb. 9, 1934-Aug. 25, 2014 Senior family preferred member Russell Lee Belknap died peacefully Monday, Aug. 25, at his ranch in Twickenham, with his family by his side, a warm breeze blowing up from the John Day River and view of his favored rim rocks dusted in crimson before him. He was 80.

Lee was one of two identical twins born Feb. 9, 1934, to Leland Ves Belknap, M.D. and Naomi “Ann” Antoinette (Treece) McNish Belknap. The family resided in Portland Heights. After completing his elementary education at Ainsworth Elementary School and secondary education at Lincoln High School, Lee attended Stanford University and University of Oregon undergrad, obtaining his M.D. from Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) in 1960.

Lee married Dutch beauty, Cornelia “Corry” Maria Waltmann in June 1957.

Together they had four children, Maria, Bonnie, Charles and Tom. Their married life was an adventure lasting 45 years, ended

by Corry’s untimely passing May 20, 2003.

Lee began his medical practice in Coos Bay in 1961. Drafted into the U.S. Navy and detached to the U.S. Marine Medical Corps in 1967, Lee served as a lieutenant commander in San Diego through 1969. While in San Diego, in addition to his naval duties, he traveled monthly with his family to the mountains of Baja California to provide TB treatment medications and medical care to affected Paipai people.

Following his honorable discharge from the Navy in 1969, Lee returned to Portland, where he practiced medicine the remainder of his professional life. An early pioneer and champion of women’s reproductive rights, Lee was a man of conviction who never shied away from a divisive issue he felt strongly about.

In 1973, he returned to OHSU to complete a residency in obstetrics and gynecology. He was a founding partner of the Downtown Women’s Center and was also heavily involved with Outside In Free Clinic.

In all his adventures, Lee was a pioneer.

He knew no strangers and in his life, he knew no bounds. A rogue and a raconteur, he loved to share the magic of wild places and wild things with anyone willing to listen and follow. His sense of adventure and daring was intoxicating and encouraged many to reach for more, to stride beyond and to summit seemingly unscalable mountains. A passionate outdoorsman and environmentalist, he dedicated his life to protecting wild places.

A strong, fearless individual with a convivial nature, Lee and his brother, Jim, leveraged their power and access to coalesce opposing interests to help win landmark wilderness designation for Oregon’s Wenaha-Tucannon watershed. He worked behind the scenes to get Wild and Scenic River designations for Eastern Oregon’s John Day and Lostine rivers, orchestrated cleanups in the Eagle Cap Wilderness and was a champion of the proposed Sutton Mountain Wilderness. A stalwart defender of these remarkable landscapes, Lee’s dedication to preserving them for future generations will be cherished forever.

Lee married Kathryn “Kathi” Briegleb, with whom he spent the balance of his life, on Dec. 2, 2011.

Lee is survived by his wife, Kathi; children, Maria, Bonnie, Charles (Monica) and Tom (Gretchen); grandchildren, Forrest, Truman, Corry and Colter; and brother, Charles Sabin Belknap, M.D. Lee was predeceased by his parents; first wife, Corry, in 2003; brother, Hamilton Ritan Belknap, in 2008; and identical twin brother, James Kerr Belknap, in 2009.

He was a lifelong member of Multnomah Athletic Club.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests contributions be made in Lee’s name to the Wallowa Land Trust and Oregon Natural Desert Association.

Robert Wynne Caswell July 21, 1938-Aug. 22, 2014 Nonresident member Robert Wynne Caswell passed away peacefully with his children and granddaughter by his side on July 21. He was 76.

Bob was born in Portland to Edwin W. and Catherine M. Caswell.

He leaves behind his wife, Marilyn Vila Macneill Bell; and children, Victoria Caswell, Robert Caswell and Christin Caswell Harding.

He and Marilyn shared seven children, 28 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren.

His greatest joy was spending time with loved ones at the Macey Cottage in Long Beach, Wash. He was a man of God, who will be greatly missed by all who were fortunate enough to call him friend. Remembrances for Bob Caswell may be sent to Providence Portland Medical Foundation, 4805 N.E. Glisan St., Portland, OR 97213.

Neil Farnham April 3, 1917-Sept. 17, 2014 Lifelong Oregonian and 56-year member Neil Farnham died Sept. 17. A celebration of life is planned at Multnomah Athletic Club on Saturday, Nov. 15, 2014 at 4 p.m. Please see the December Winged M for a complete obituary.

ADMINISTRATIVE In Memoriam Continued from page 19

Linda Mae (Tash) Farr Jan. 8, 1943-Aug. 13, 2014 Senior family preferred member Linda Mae (Tash) Farr died peacefully at home surrounded by her family in Aug. 13. Her bed was placed next to the living room window with sunlight streaming through the tall trees outside. Linda was an 18-year survivor of breast cancer. She was 71.

Linda was born at St. Vincent’s Hospital to June and Eldon Tash. Her early childhood was spent in Spokane, Coulee Dam and McNary Dam, Wash., as her father was a steel worker for dams throughout the Northwest. She spent her summers with her grandmother on her farm in Spokane, where she learned to garden, make pickles and jams, and ride horses.

Her brother Gary came along in 1947 and the family moved to Southeast Portland, where her father worked for Mercer Steel.

Linda and her brother lived the idealized ‘50s life revolving around their family, school and friends. She attended Kellogg Elementary and Franklin High School. Linda graduated from the University of Oregon in 1964 with a degree in Sociology.

After returning to Portland she worked for the State of Oregon Children’s Services

Division as a caseworker for abused children.

Linda married Richard Beachell in 1972 and divorced after six years of marriage. Several days after her 40th birthday she re-met Dale Farr, a friend from the university 20 years before! Linda took Dale on a “test trip” to Europe to see if they could survive traveling together. Dale passed the test and they were married at All Saints Episcopal Church in Pasadena, Calif., in 1986 by family friend, Rev. David Perry. They lived in a Victorian in Northwest Portland in the late ’80s and then moved to a Farr designed house on Fairmount Boulevard in 1992.

Linda retired after 22 years as a supervisor for CSD and became a real estate broker with Cronin and Caplan Realty Group. Linda’s varied interests included traveling, gardening, cooking and reading. She was an avid Egytophile. In 2011, she realized her lifelong dream of owning a horse. “Superfly” was a mistreated Arabian Welsh Cob. Linda and her trainer friend Marie Kerola transformed him into a winning competitor.

Linda was an inspiration to all her friends and other cancer victims as she faced her disease with a positive attitude, never complaining and with a sense of humor in a bad situation.

As a member of SOAR Paddling Club and WOW Metatastic Cancer Group, she showed how to live one’s life with courage.

Imagine

She is survived by her husband, Dale; brother, Gary Tash and his wife Cathy; stepdaughter, Courtenay Farr Miles; stepson, Dawson Farr; five granddaughters; many other family members; and her good friend, Libby Dawson Farr.

As per Linda’s wishes, her ashes will be scattered by her family in the spring in Kauai, Hawaii. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial donations to the ASPCA or the William Temple House.

Charles W. Kellogg Mar. 15, 1934-Sept. 7, 2014 Nonresident family member Charles W. “Chuck” Kellogg died Sept. 7, 2014, in Vancouver. He was 80. Chuck will be remembered by those who knew him as charismatic, excited about life, and irreverently funny.

He was born March 15, 1934, in Portland, to Doris (Kilcup) and Charles W. Kellogg Sr. He attended Bonny Slope Elementary School and Washington High School (‘52) in Portland.

Chuck developed a strong interest in boating as a child, inspired by his father. At 16, he obtained his first pilot’s license. Chuck went on to earn a commercial pilot’s license with ratings in multi-engine, helicopter and single-engine land and sea. He was also a licensed airplane and helicopter flight instructor. Recently, he was taking classes to renew

ADMINISTRATIVE his pilot’s license. He also held a U.S. Coast Guard Merchant Marine Master 100-ton Captain’s license and was recently pursuing his Master 200-ton Captain’s license.

At age 18, Chuck established his first corporation, manufacturing fiberglass Corvette parts in a garage. He attended Oregon State University and was drafted Sept. 23, 1958, into the U.S. Army at Ft. Belvoir, Va. Chuck was sent to the Army Engineering School and became an instructor of refrigeration systems for the Atlas missile.

Upon honorable discharge from the Army, he attended Portland State University and worked at Northwest Copper Works, a company founded by his father. Chuck later owned and operated that business, as well as founding two others, Corrosion Controllers and Orbit Industries in Washougal, Wash. He enjoyed skiing, riding motorcycles, boating, fishing and hunting, among other pursuits. Chuck had many lifelong passions, including woodcarving, working on classic cars and vintage boats, and nurturing his prolific vegetable and flower gardens. He personally built and restored many wooden boats, including his two special loves, The Kaleta, an 84 year-old wooden cruiser, and The Recalcitrant, his fishing boat.

Chuck was dedicated to honoring the veterans of World War II. He found it inspiring to listen to the fascinating stories veterans would share with him. Chuck loved history,

especially maritime history, and was the founder of several organizations, including the Columbia Willamette Chapter of the Antique and Classic Boat Society and the Maritime Heritage Coalition. He was also an active board member of the Save the PT Boat, Amphibious Forces Memorial Museum and the Oregon Maritime Museum. He worked tirelessly to support the restoration efforts of the USS LCI (L)-713 and PT-658, both World War II vessels, along with the Portland Sternwheeler.

Like his father before him, Chuck was known for his quick wit. He was bright, direct and independent, but also fiercely devoted to his family and friends. Chuck would often regale friends and family with his clever and often humorous storytelling ability, and wouldn’t hesitate to add the occasional embellishment if it would enhance the tale. His laugh was infectious. Chuck was active his entire life and enjoyed spending time with his family and friends. His deep love and affection for his wife, children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren was obvious to anyone who knew him.

Chuck is survived by his wife, Trish Kellogg of Ridgefield, Wash.; children, Chuck (Debbie) Kellogg III of Battle Ground, Wash., Suzy (Mike) Ferrario of Seattle, Chris (Suzanne) Kellogg of Vancouver, Tauni (Chris) Koch of Madison, Wis., and Carly Kellogg of Portland;

sister, Virginia (Jerry) Rosette of Portland; sister-in-law, Patty Kellogg of Vancouver; 13 grandchildren; two great-grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his father, Charles W. Kellogg Sr.; stepmother, Marjorie; mother, Doris; sister, Patricia; stepbrother, Rick; and first wife, Darla.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests that donations be made to Save the PT Boat or the Amphibious Forces Memorial Museum.

Vincent A. Reger Oct. 27, 1956-Aug. 28, 2014 Senior member Vincent A. Reger died Aug. 28. He was 57.

Born in Portland to Donald E. and Patricia L. Reger, he attended Wilson High School and Lewis & Clark College. He was admitted to OHSU Medical School after only three years of college and went on to complete his residency at Virginia Mason Hospital in Seattle.

Vincent began his career in medicine at the Portland Clinic, and in 1990, went on to open his own private practice in general surgery at Providence St. Vincent Medical Center, his lifelong dream. During his 24 years at the hospital, Vincent served in many professional capacities, including chief of staff.

In lieu of flowers, the family has asked for donations to be made to the Cancer Research Institute or PSVMC. WM

Get a Handle on Teen Acne Getting teen acne under control can be very frustrating. At Faces Unlimited, we have had success working with teens in getting their acne under control. Acne is caused by several factors: there is definitely a genetic predispostion (over active oil glands), very active hormones, and skin that doesn’t shed as rapidly as it should.

Regular facials that remove blackheads and clogged pores can help get breakouts under control. During a facial, the skin is exfoliated, steamed and pores are cleaned. The facial is completed with a mask that helps to soothe the skin and restore balance.

In food processor add all ingredients and blend until mixture resembles ground sausage.

–Butcher Brandon Rice

Italian Sausage Lasagna serves: 8-12 My mother made lasagna every Christmas Eve, her version was made with ground beef and a quick tomato sauce – it is one of my most vivid food memories, and was what my brother and I looked forward to every year at the holidays. This is my version, with Italian sausage, homemade marinara sauce and lots of cheese! Serve it with Caesar salad and garlic bread.

1 pound dried lasagna noodles 1 pound Italian sausage, mild or spicy (see recipe above) 5-6 cups marinara sauce (see recipe at theMAC.com) 16 ounces ricotta cheese

40 | The Wınged M |

4½ cups shredded mozzarella 2 cups shredded parmesan cheese 3 tablespoons chopped parsley 1. Bring large pot of salted water to boil, add noodles and cook until slightly underdone.

Rinse under cold water to stop noodles from cooking. Set aside, cover with wet paper towel to keep noodles from drying out.

2. Brown the sausage in a sauté pan, remove from pan and discard extra oil, drying on plate lined with paper towels. Cool Completely.

3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a greased 9x13 casserole dish, layer ingredients in the following order: 4 ounces marinara sauce One even layer of noodles ½ cup mozzarella

november 2014

¼ cup grated parmesan cheese One even layer of noodles Repeat this process twice more, but add sausage and ricotta after the marinara sauce.

For the final layer, spread 8-10 ounces of marinara sauce, along with 3/4 cup of mozzarella and 1/2 cup parmesan cheese.

4. Cover lasagna with foil, place in pre-heated oven and bake for 45-60 minutes until cheese is melted and lasagna is warmed through.

Remove foil, sprinkle top with chopped parsley and place back in oven to slightly brown cheese on top, 5-10 minutes. Cut into 10-12 equal squares and serve with additional marinara and grated parmesan cheese. Mangia!

–Sous Chef Deanna Bascom

Braised Brussels with Sausage and Caramelized Onions serves: 8-12 4 pounds Brussels sprouts cut in half 4 large yellow onions 2 pounds sweet Italian sausage (see recipe at theMAC.com or purchase) 1 quart of stock (veal, chicken or beef) 1 teaspoon chili flakes Olive oil Salt and pepper 1. In large sauté pan on medium-high heat, add a small amount of oil and brown sausage. Remove sausage from pan and set aside. Remove excess oil and add onions on medium-high heat. Stir often, season with salt and pepper and cook onions until onions well caramelized.

Remove onions and set aside.

2. Deglaze the pan with stock and set the reduced stock aside. Heat a clean sauté pan on medium-high heat. Add enough olive oil to sauté and add Brussels sprouts season with salt and pepper. Cook until golden brown on at least two sides.

3. In an oven safe sauté pan or baking dish, layer the Brussel sprouts, then add cooked sausage, and then the onions. Add enough stock to cover the Brussels about halfway and bake in a 350 degree oven for 15-35 minutes, until they reach desired tenderness.

Quinoa Timbale with Red Pepper Coulis

enough to be pliable, but not paper thin.

serves: 8 11/3 cup quinoa ½ cup carrot, diced small ½ cup rutabaga, diced small ½ cup turnip, diced small ½ cup parsnip, diced small ½ cup white onion, diced small ½ cup mushrooms, chopped 8 zucchini 1 tablespoon garlic, minced 2 tablespoons sherry vinegar 1 tablespoon olive oil 1½ cups water ¼ cup fresh herbs, chopped salt and pepper to taste

5. To make coulis: saute red pepper, jalapeño, onion and garlic in olive oil over medium heat until softened.

Add vegetable stock and balsamic vinegar. Simmer until there is no liquid visible in the pan, about 12 minutes.

Red Pepper Coulis 1½ pounds red peppers, coarsely chopped ½ jalapeño pepper, minced ¼ cup white onion, chopped 1 teaspoon garlic, minced 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 cup vegetable stock 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar 1. Toss carrot, rutabaga, turnip, parsnip, onion and mushroom with olive oil, salt and pepper. Place on sheet pan and roast at 350 degrees until cooked through. Set aside to cool.

2. Bring water to a boil and pour in the quinoa. Simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Pour off remaining liquid. Let cool.

3. In a mixing bowl combine the vegetables and the quinoa. Add garlic and vinegar, adjust seasoning to taste.

4. Slice eight zucchini lengthwise with a mandolin slicer, cut slices thin

5. Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray or coat with olive oil, and lay out the slices of zucchini. Place in oven at 325 degrees and cook for approximately 5 minutes.

6. Puree vegetable/stock mixture in a blender and then strain it through a course sieve. If the sauce is too thick, thin with boiling stock. If too thin, place over medium heat and reduce to desired consistency.

Putting it all together: 1. Spray a one cup ramekin with cooking spray. Shingle in the zucchini slices. Start from the middle of the ramekin. You should have about 1/3 of the zucchini slice over hanging the cup.

2. Pack in the quinoa filling until the zucchini-lined cup is nearly full.

Fold over the overhanging zucchini slices to fully enclose the quinoa filling. Turn the ramekin upside down onto a sheet pan and gently remove ramekin. You should now have a freestanding timbale on the sheet pan. Bake at 325 degrees for about 15 minutes (or until heated through).

3. Lightly coat the center of the plate with the coulis, place timbale in center. Garnish as you like (in the photo garnish is roasted golden beet slices, roasted mushroom slices and fried basil).

Family Events/Juniors

Tween Scavenger Hunt has a British Twist This year’s scavenger hunt is the Dr. Who Space Continuum Time Challenge

M

AC Tweens – get ready for an event created just for you!

The theme for this adventure is Doctor Who, the popular science fiction television program.

Be ready for the TARDIS time machine to transport you to any point in time and any place in the MAC “universe”.

Members ages 9 to 12 are challenged to take part in an interactive scavenger hunt featuring obstacles, challenges, puzzles, trivia and more. Join fellow members in your age group from 6-8 p.m.

Saturday, Nov. 15.

Members are divided into groups, and are transported around the club to document their findings with a digital camera

provided by the club. Scavenger hunt activities include mental and physical challenges and a whole lot of fun mixed in. For example, groups land on the terrace to look through a telescope and find a planet in Providence Park, or take a photo of the entire team walking on the track in alphabetical order. This is just one example of the many adventures that take place on this journey.

At the end of the exploration, groups find themselves enjoying dessert and looking at the digital pictures of each group’s journey through MAC. There is limited space, so this event is for members only. The cost is $15 per person and includes dinner. Dinner is served at 6 p.m. and then the excitement begins with the scavenger hunt.

Leanding Helping Hands at Harvest of Hope MAC’s 20s/30s group knows how to have fun, but they also know how to help. The committee worked toward its self-assigned goal of supporting local nonprofits when Candlelighters For Children With Cancer hosted their annual benefit, Harvest of Hope, at MAC in October. The event raises money to help families affected by childhood cancer.

When it was announced the 2014 Harvest of Hope would take place at MAC, committee member Michael Butler saw a great opportunity for the two groups he’s passionate about to work together. MAC members in their 20s/30s volunteered for shifts at the event. All net proceeds from the event benefit programs, services and activities offered by Candlelighters For Children With Cancer, a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization dedicated to providing support, education, advocacy and hope to all children and their families facing the difficulties of childhood cancer in Oregon and southwest Washington.

All MAC members in their 20s/30s are encouraged to support the variety of local nonprofits in our community. Grab a friend, socialize while you work and meet new people.

If you would like more information on future 20s/30s Committee volunteer partnerships, including the upcoming business clothing drive, go to theMAC.com and join the 20s/30s opt-in group to receive email updates.

Balladeers

Lineup Set for Brothers Sing On! Concert The Balladeers’ year is in full swing, with the singers confirming two major performances (so far) for 2015.

“Besides enjoying the act of making music, we view encouraging youths who like to sing to make singing a lifetime avocation,” said second-year Balladeers Director Scott Tuomi as he and Balladeer Chair Jay Maxwell announced the Brothers Sing On concert at the University of Portland on Sunday, Feb. 8 and the Roger Doyle Memorial Concert Sunday, April 12.

The Brothers Sing On performance, organized by Balladeers Spencer Snow and Karl Wetzel, is fully subscribed this year.

Joining the Balladeers next February are the University of Portland Singers, Tsunami, a young men’s all-star ensemble also directed by Tuomi, and groups from Liberty High School in Hillsboro and Parkrose High School.

“I think word has gotten around that this is a wonderful experience – not to mention a very entertaining show,” Snow said.

The Morning Book Club discusses Candice Millard’s River of Doubt at 10 a.m.

Thursday, Nov. 13. After Theodore Roosevelt lost his bid for a third term to Woodrow Wilson, he jumped at the opportunity to journey to Brazil as part of a scientific journey of discovery sponsored by the American Museum of Natural History.

Poor planning led to an ambitious but arduous exploration of nearly 1,000 miles of uncharted Amazonian jungle wilderness.

This strenuous exploit, during which Roosevelt lost 55 pounds, broke down his robust health, and is thought to have hastened his death five years later at the age of 60.

December is a reader’s choice session, so share your favorites and look toward 2015.

The Morning Book Club meets at 10 a.m. on the second Thursday of each month.

The Evening Literary Group discusses The Mother’s Recompense, by Edith Wharton, in November. Published in 1925, the story opens on the French Riviera among a community of outcasts. Kate Clephane is reluctant to return to New York society after being exiled many years before when she abandoned her husband and infant daughter. Then a brief but significant telegram arrives: “Dearest Mother, I want you to come home at once. I want you to come home and live with me. Your daughter Anne.”

Anne is intent on marrying Chris Fenno a dilettante and social opportunist with whom Kate was once deeply in love. Please join the group at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 25.

A 2009 study on GMOs conducted by the National Academy of Sciences found that they offer substantial net environmental and economic benefits compared to conventional crops. However, the study committee found that the benefits may not be universal across the landscape, some may decline over time, and risks may increase as the technology spreads to new crops.

Skiers should be able to fit two fingers between their heel and the shell of the boot when the liner is removed.

SKI

Proper Fit is Key for Comfortable Boots There are many myths and misunderstandings regarding the proper way to fit or size ski boots. First of all, heading into your local ski shop on Dec. 20, just prior to the family holiday vacation, and trying on some boots wearing thick wool socks is exactly what not to do. When you try on ski boots in the shop, there are multiple factors at play that do not represent how the boots will fit and perform on the hill in cold weather. Here is a simple guide to help you get a pair of boots that fit properly and will perform well on the hill: 1. Bring or wear a pair of ultra-thin wool or synthetic ski socks. The liner of the ski boot is generally made of foam or a corkin-oil composition. When either of these materials is new, they are the thickest and most rigid they will ever be. It is important to understand that the boot liner will “pack out,” meaning the material essentially will break down, creating more space in the boot over its life. When you wear a thick pair of socks, it takes up more space in the liner, generally leading to discomfort, complaints and the sales person grabbing the next size up to appease you. The next size up, I can assure you, does not fit properly.

2. Remove the liner from the boots and place your bare or thinly covered feet inside the shells. A professional boot fitter should know to do this, but just in case you get someone who doesn’t know what you’re talking about, you can take that as a cue to leave and find another fitter. Move your toes to the front of the shell so that they

Athletics are touching the front of the toe box. You should be able to fit two to two-and-a-half fingers in between your heel and the back edge of the shell. It is important that it is no more than two-and-a-half fingers and no less than one-and-a-half. Tip: For children who are growing, make sure you are toward the maximum end to allow for growth.

3. Buckle the boots properly and flex. It is important that the boots not only fit properly but are able to perform properly. If the boots are not buckled down correctly, or you only use the power straps to carry those bad boys to the lodge, then you might not be skiing as well as you could be. To buckle the boots properly, be sure that the tightest buckle is the second one down from the top of the boot, near your ankle bones. This buckle secures your foot into the heel pocket and keeps you stabilized. The lower two buckles over your foot only need to be buckled tight enough to keep them latched. The top most buckle should be the second tightest, but not so much as to cut off circulation. The power straps should be secured around the tongue of

Now that you’re strapped in correctly, stand in an athletic position and flex the boots. If you cannot flex the boots at all in the 72-degree ski shop, you are never going to be able to move them out on the ski hill. In general, the stiffer the flex, the more performance oriented the boot and the more power it takes to flex them. You should be relatively upright when standing in the boots, but able to flex them forward about 1 to 2 inches. At the same time, you should not be able to fully flex forward with knees bent without even trying; those boots are too soft.

MAC Offers Clinics and Classes for Adults, Too MAC Swim School strives to prepare members for all types of water activities.

Whether an adult is training for a triathlon, swimming for fitness, taking a trip on the water, or learning to stay afloat, there are classes, clinics and private training sessions to help all ages.

Adult Stroke Technique Clinics Swim clinics are for members ages 18 and older looking to improve or update their freestyle technique. These clinics run for one hour on select Sundays throughout the year.

The goal for the clinic is to work on three basic swimming needs: breathing, body position, and movement technique. Instructors are there to diagnose stroke inefficiencies and then give swimmers the tools necessary to correct them. Swimmers run through several drills and exercises that break down their stroke so they can focus on what needs the most work. Instructors also offer help with secondary swimming goals such as flip turns, additional strokes and workout plans. Check the aquatics section of the website for upcoming clinics and contact Adult Swim Instructor

Much like the swim clinics, members run through several drills and exercises that break down the stroke to identify areas that need work. Participants are encouraged to take the classes as often and as long as they would like until they are fully satisfied with their progress. Check the Class

Private Swim Training These are one-on-one training sessions with one of MAC’s SwimAmerica-certified instructors who help with any swimming need; whether it is conquering fears of swimming, refining strokes, or preparing for a triathlon. We have a wide range of instructors who specialize in all different levels of swim training. Private training sessions can be set up through the aquatics office and can take place at your convenience. Please call the swim school office at 503-517-7505 for more information.

only more comfortable with swimming, but learning flip turns!” – Sally Wentross “The biggest thing holding me back from triathlons was the swimming portion. Prior to my swim lessons with Kyle I would joke that the goal was to survive the swim. It was a real fear that I would have to call for help and be disqualified from the race. After a couple of lessons from Kyle and the tips all the lifeguards gave me while practicing, I can honestly say I look forward to the swim. I no longer swim to survive, but swim to compete.”

Exercise: When to Lay Low or Get Up and Go It’s well into the fall season, and you’ve probably established a postsummer routine, rarely missing a workout. Then cold and flu season hits, and you’re down for the count.

What should you do about your workouts? Power through and continue on as normal? Skip the gym altogether?

It can be a tough decision.

A general guideline is to use the “neck rule.” If your symptoms are above the neck, such as runny nose, cough, congestion, sore throat or other symptoms of a common cold, it is usually OK to continue on with your routine. Sometimes, exercise can even help you feel better by unclogging your nasal passages, increasing your circulation, and giving you more energy in general. You should, however, consider reducing the intensity and length of your workout. Listen to your body and know what it can handle. If you normally run, you can still run, but it may be wise to cut back on your mileage.

If your symptoms are below the neck; such as chest congestion, upset stomach, chills, fatigued muscles or a fever, take the day off and rest.

Resume your normal workout routine when your symptoms subside and your temperature returns to normal.

Regular exercise can help you stave off illness by boosting your immune system. Washing your hands regularly also can help prevent illness and spreading any germs you might have. The weight room is outfitted with several sanitizer wipes for you to use before and after coming in contact with the workout equipment. WM

Building Muscular Fitness L

ast month we discussed cardiorespiratory fitness and its role in helping you become a fit individual. This month we focus on muscular fitness.

Unfortunately, muscle mass naturally diminishes with age. After the age of 25, we lose a half-pound of muscle every year.

But don’t fret; no matter what age you are, regular strength training can reverse this decline. Research shows that untrained men and women gain 2 to 4 pounds of muscle, and 40 to 60 percent more strength after just two months of regular strength exercise.

Muscular Fitness Muscular fitness is the process of working out with a progressively heavier weight to strengthen your musculoskeletal system.

Benefits include warding off osteoporosis, increasing metabolism, helping to manage weight, improving confidence, decreasing risk of injury, and building strength.

Muscle fitness consists of both muscular strength and muscular endurance. Muscular strength is the ability to perform one repetition with maximum resistance. Muscular endurance is the ability to perform many repetitions with sub-maximum resistance.

To improve muscle strength, the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) recommends adults do two to three

days per week of two to four sets of eight to 12 repetitions, and 10 to 15 repetitions for middle-age and older people. To improve muscle endurance, the ACSM recommends two to three days per week of two to four sets of 15 to 20 repetitions.

Strength Training Tips: Mix it up. Train each major muscle group using a variety of exercises and equipment.

Allow 48 hours of recovery between resistance training sessions, and change your exercises and movement patterns so you are strong and mobile in all planes of motion.

Work larger muscle groups first, then you can isolate smaller muscles in the chain.

For example, perform a chest press, then a tricep extension.

Use progressive resistance to stimulate strength gain. You must work muscles harder than they are used to being worked.

Don’t power through your exercises.

The slower you go, the harder your muscles have to work, and the lower your risk of injury. We recommend one to two seconds for each lifting and lowering movement.

Many times in past years, Wood, her family and Sensei Bill Plapinger traveled across the country to compete and represent MAC. Wood says she likes karate because it challenges her physically and mentally, and also helps to build confidence. When she is not in karate class, Parker enjoys skateboarding, video games, outdoor activities, and creative hobbies like drawing, painting, programming and movie making. At age 16, Parker is younger than most black-belt candidates, but her maturity and leadership have made her a very worthy student.

Maya Schell has a long history with MAC Karate, beginning in 1995 at age 8.

She trained and competed actively until she moved away in 2001. Schell later returned to Portland, but was busy with high school, basketball and softball. She returned to the karate program in 2012 and picked up where she left off. Schell has earned gold medals in each of the six events she participated in this year.These include one state, one national, and one international event. She loves the competition and her results show that she is very good at it. Besides the excellent physical conditioning, Schell values the friendships and family feeling between MAC’s students, coaches and teachers.

“What we all share, in the training but also the beliefs and loyalty to karate, are unique and creates a very special connection,” she said. Outside of karate, Schell coaches high school basketball, works in a medical office, and attends Lewis & Clark College, where she is earning a degree in K-12 counseling. She recently married, with several members of the MAC karate family in attendance.

Talkin’ ’bout practice?

There’s still time to practice. New weekend clinics focus on beginners. On Saturday mornings, the women take over the courts – both singles and doubles players. All levels

City league player Charlene Fisher was recently honored with a life-time achievement award. Approximately 33 years ago, the Greater Portland City League program was in its infancy, and MAC had only four teams – A, B, C and D levels. Fisher was a cocaptain on the D team. She did a fantastic job making sure everyone felt needed and used in the league play. Fisher loved tennis and friendship even more. She played on through the decades from D to K, enjoying being part of a tennis team and always trying her best to win her matches. Fisher exemplifies tennis as “the sport of a lifetime.”

This year, after consulting with Head Pro Wayne Pickard and friends, Fisher has decided to hang up her city league racquet and just keep going with a good foursome. If you see her on the courts, please raise your Continued on page 74

Walking and Hiking

Make Daily Walks Part of Holiday Season Holiday schedules fill up quickly with seasonal events, many with food and drink prepared especially for the season. These events are filled with energy and spirit, but are usually sedentary affairs. Try to balance holidays feasts with daily walks, then add a holiday walk or two to enjoy the decorations and lights that only appear this time of year.

The Walking and Hiking Committee hosts two holiday-themed walking events – one in the dark hours before sunrise and the other in the dark hours after sunset.

Lights and Lobbies Set the alarm, and take an early morning walk on Wednesday, Dec. 17, for the annual Lights and Lobbies Walk through downtown Portland to view the decorations and light displays of local hotels and businesses. Leave Continued on page 76

Yoga

Yoga Can Heal Everything Whether you’re aware of his presence or it has unknowingly seeped into your subconscious, it’s safe to assume you have been touched by B.K.S. Iyengar. Widely known for bringing yoga to the Western world, Iyengar, who died in August at age 95, has come to

represent the face of yoga to tens of millions of followers in the U.S. alone. In a word, Iyengar designed yoga to be accessible to all. What does this mean? If you can’t touch the floor with your hands, place blocks near your feet.

If you can’t touch your feet from your seat, loop a strap around them. Born a very sickly child, Iyengar adapted and healed, and not only survived, but thrived.

The title of this article may sound a bit bold and brazen, but those of you who have experienced the serenity, calm and physical rehabilitation offered by yoga know what I’m talking about. The restorative and healing powers of yoga are scientifically proven to lower blood pressure, increase sexual desire, and change your brain chemistry.

Drawing from one of the largest recent studies marking biological measurements, National Geographic presents the most reassuring news yet to be released. Yoga is scientifically proven to reduce inflammation, the body’s way of reacting to injury or irritation. This is important because inflammation is associated with all chronic disease including, but not limited to: heart disease, diabetes, arthritis and cancer. Exercise is critical. Meditation is transformational. Nothing matches, however, the combined power of meditation in motion, or yoga.

Yoga has vast healing powers.

I am a devout Catholic, and I am right at home aligning with traditional yogic philosophy inherent to the human condition.

The following is a core list of foundational principles and their respective Sanskrit terms: • Ahimsa: nonviolence • Sthira: inner place of joy • Vairaigya: nonattachment/nonjudgment; acknowledgment of the monkey mind • Nada: development of a sound body and mind through deep listening • Karuna: a practice of compassion • Sarati: to give more than you receive • Bhava: love as a process or feeling or state of being

Athletics While it is impossible to describe all the healing powers of yoga in this brief article, mine is a most humble attempt to confirm what you may already know and practice or to gently nudge you to give yoga a try. We can then rest well knowing we have paid homage to a man most deserving, to a man who has given us, and will no doubt continue to give us, well-being until the end of our time.

Namasté, Iyengar. Namasté
