BRG HistoryThe 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 GoalsBeaverton 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 AdvertisingWith 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!

“Under certain circumstances, profanity provides a relief denied even to prayer.”
“Of all the animals, man is the only one that is cruel. He is the only one that inflicts pain for the pleasure of doing it.”
“I’ve had a lot of worries in my life, most of which never happened.”
“Go to heaven for the climate and hell for the company.”
“I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.”
“The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated.”
Get a bicycle. You will not regret it, if you live.
“Always do right. This will gratify some people and astonish the rest.”
“Life is short, break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably, and never regret anything that made you smile. Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
Samuel Langhorne Clemens, better known by his pen name Mark Twain, was an American author and humorist. He wrote The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and its sequel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, the latter often called “the Great American Novel.”

La Hacienda Real Mexican Restaurant
Arestaurant reminds you of a
hacienda means “a large estate or plantation with a dwelling house”. As you walk in, you are immedi-ately greeted with bienvenido or “welcome” and that’s exactly how I felt. The restaurant is adorned with bright colors, traditional Jaliscomurals of farm life.

Automotive Q&A: With the Beaverton Car Guy
Q: I left my dome light on over-night and I was surprised &
relieved that my vehicle started. If my battery is fully charged, how many hours could have passed for me vehicle to start?A: Different vehicles have different amounts of interior lighting, so in most cases on a newer vehicle, or a vehicle with a new or recent battery, the interior lights would easily stay on, as well as allow the vehicle to start after a 12 hour period. If it were the headlights, they draw a much greater amount of power so the time is greatly reduced. I think that 6 hours would be the maximum amount of time.
Q: Last February we had a big snow storm, I had to use my tire chains, however my neighbor men-
tioned that his snow tires worked just as well if not better. Is this true?A: It is well known that snow tires are far better in the snow & ice than highway tires, however getting going in slick driving conditions is certainly a plus, stopping is quite another story. The addition of chains when there is snow or ice, provides much better traction, not only for getting the vehicle going, but it will help the vehicle to stop as well. Most accidents during slick driving conditions occur, due to inability to stop your vehicle.

New Natural PlaygroundComing To Cedar Hills KindergartenTKindergarten and Preschool
old parent-child cooperative school in North Beaverton, are swing-ing into full gear to build an entirely new kind of play-g r o u n d that will give chil-dren even more opportunity to direct their play using their imag-inations and creativity rather than allowing play equipment to dictate play time.
Nationally renowned nature playscape designer Leon Smith with Earthplay (www.Earthplay.net), has been working with the students, teachers and parents this year to design a unique nature
imaginations surprise their senses, and allow children of all abilities to interact with nature as they play
Research shows that chil-dren who play regularly in nat-ural environments show more
coordination, balance and agility. Children also develop observation and social skills as they interact with their peers.
“ T h e new natural playground will be a barri-e r - f r e e , i n c l u s i v e playground for our c o m m u -n i t y , ” said Lori

Traffic Q&A: With the Beaverton Police Department
Q: My mother is disabled and does not drive.
There are times that I go to the store for her while she stays home. Because I’m shopping for her, can I use her permit to park in a disabled space?A: (No) Oregon Revised Statute 811.625, “A person commits the offense of unlawful use of a disabled persons parking permit if the person is not a person with a disability and is not transporting the holder of a disabled person parking permit to or from the parking location; and uses a disabled person parking permit.”
Q: I have noticed that more and more cars are equipped with these super bright white head-
lights, sometimes in different colors. It sure makes driving more difficult when the on-coming vehicles use these lights. Are these headlights legal?A: Although there is a section in the Oregon statute regarding headlight specifications (ORS 816.050), Oregon has adopted the Federal Department of Transportation’s definition which does indeed allow for many of these kinds of headlights. Use of high beams or having misaligned lights that would shine into oncoming traffic is enforceable under ORS811.520 and/or ORS816.300.
Q: I heard that jaywalking is only an offence if the nearest cross streets have signals like in a com-
mercial district. But can one technically get a jaywalk-ing ticket for walking across a residential street in a quiet neighborhood?A. It’s possible. Part of ORS 814.040 (Failure to yield to vehicle) says “Pedestrian Fails to yield the right of way to a vehicle upon a roadway when the pedestrian is crossing the roadway at any point other than within a marked crosswalk or an unmarked crosswalk at an intersection”. Beaverton code 6.02.510 Pedestrian must use available crosswalk says “ No pedestrian shall cross a roadway outside of a marked crosswalk if within 150 feet of a marked crosswalk”.

Speeder Spotlight: Moving for SeniorsFor those of us who have been
more years we have managed to accumulate a lot of “stuff”. The very thought of tackling the clutter can be discouraging. The organizational and physical tasks associated with planning and accomplishing a complex project can be overwhelming. That’s when an experienced, non-judgmental professional can be invaluable: with high energy, enthusiasm and expertise, the worry and the work are taken off your shoulders.
Karen Brandenburger, owner of Smooth Transitions of Portland LLC, and a member of the Smooth Transitions national network, pro-vides individuals and families the emotional and physical assistance needed to make a change in living arrangements. Services include pre-move planning, deciding what to take to the new home, moving
-ing, unpacking and setting up the new home, and taking care of all aspects related to closing out the former home.
Over the years, Karen has developed useful guidelines for folks thinking about or needing to make a change. Try a “virtual move”: take a look at your stuff and ask yourself the following questions:
Do I actually use this? Does this work properly and do I know how to use it?If I get rid of this, how hard will
need it?
own versus how many do I really need?
5. Is this a memento I want to keep?
6. Am I keeping this because I’ll
feel guilty if I give it away?7. And, most importantly, do I
love it? Karen is a graduate of George
Fox University with over twen-

55YEARS OF AGE

Last October, Of cer Anthony Jenkins of the Beaverton
Police Department received word that a woman was in “the woods” intending to kill herself. Her whereabouts were unknown, so Jenkins called Brady Schwartz of THPRD’s Park Patrol and asked if he might have an idea where she could be.Schwartz had a hunch, and it was a good one. He led Jenkins to a spot deep in the forest off the Fanno Creek Trail, and there they found the woman, wet and barely breathing but alive.Schwartz helped Jenkins carry the woman about 150 yards out
of the woods. He also called emergency personnel and helped them determine the exact location so they could get there ef ciently to render aid.In a letter of recognition to the district, Jenkins wrote, “Schwartz had a calm and collected demeanor throughout the call and followed direction without hesitation. Schwartz was integral in the successful retrieval...from the woods. Without Schwartz’s knowledge of locations within the park (she) would not have been found.”For his efforts, Beaverton Police honored him on April 3 with a citizen commendation award. Schwartz also was selected as a quarterly winner of THPRD’s “PRIDE” award, which is presented to employees for extraordinary service.Schwartz has had a special
connection to BPD since high school when, in the darkest hour of his life, his father committed suicide. Of cer Mike Rowe helped the young man get through it.“He reached into his pocket and pulled out his business card,” Schwartz recalled. “He wrote on it, handed it to me and said, ‘This is my personal cellphone. Anytime you need anything, even if you wake up in the middle of the night and need someone to talk to, call me.’ ” Schwartz never forgot the gesture and showed his gratitude in a personal way last fall after Rowe’s wife, Kendall, died of colon cancer. He helped raise money in Kendall Rowe’s name for OHSU’s Knight Cancer Institute.“Doing the fundraiser in my wife’s name, it was very attering,” Rowe said. “Most of us get into law enforcement because we want to
help people.”He added, “I’m glad it stuck with him, and that he’s trying to do things to help other people. He’s paying it forward.”

The Care & Feeding of Your HomeHow to Earthquake Proof Your House
Growing up in Portland, I remember hearing about the
“big one” that scientists were cer-

years ago is that they have virtually no building codes. Construction technique in that situation is left

general, won’t withstand an earth-quake as well as newer ones.
And, just so there’s no mis-understanding, seismic building codes are not designed to build earthquake proof structures, rather they help us build earthquake resistant structures. The intent is to build something that won’t collapse on the occupants and will allow them to escape safely.
For the most part, old fashioned building techniques simply relied on gravity to hold a house on its foundation, so the addition of anchor bolts through the sill plate into the concrete makes good sense. But, that only keeps the house from sliding off the foundation.
Once the house is anchored in place, shear wall hold-down anchors should be attached at each corner. This will keep the house from being tipped over like an old
All post and beam construction under the house should be tied together to keep the posts from coming off their piers and to pre-vent the beams from sliding off the
posts. Gravity is great so long as all forces are straight down. But when the earth begins to pitch and roll and twist and heave, all bets are off for any parts of the house that aren’t tied together.
Now, let’s go back into the house and see what we should do in there to make things safer. If your water heater isn’t strapped to a nearby wall, it should be. In a major earthquake, this container

Are they all attached to the wall, so they won’t tip over and crush someone?
Outside your home, do you have an earthquake wrench strapped to your gas meter, so you can shut the gas off at the source in the event the gas line gets broken? They’re

Musings of a Beaverton TeenRight is Wrong: How our school system does not help everyone
ave you ever felt like your teachers’ lessons don’t make
sense to you? Are you more of a hands-on, visual learner? Some of us teens are right-brained ori-ented, but the school system is designed almost exclusively for the left-brain.
Which are You?So what am I talking about?
Simply put, the right brain is in charge of the “overall picture” in your mind, as well as creativity, music, art, and emotion. The left brain is in charge of reasoning, numbers and words, analysis, and linear/straight-forward thinking.

that. It seems like to me that the way we’re taught to think is that the left-brain is the only worth-while brain. In school, the lessons are taught in a very left-brain heavy style, with lectures and very little
-cally art-oriented classes. I’ve seen so many of my peers become frus-trated and hateful towards school because they’ve never found a way to fully understand or connect to the work. That doesn’t seem good at all. There’s been so many times when one of my classmates asked for my help during school and I

variety in the styles of schoolwork to make sure that all doors are open for every brain-type. Perhaps more creative, hands-on activity in the classes that usually don’t have that sort of thing, like in math or science. There needs to be an equal amount of logical, black-and-white lessons and creative, colorful classes, and that is not the case now. I feel like there would be a better appreciation of schoolwork and learning if we have variety and newness in every lessons.
Overall, teens shouldn’t be dis-advantaged if they have a different style of learning. The ability to solve equations and other left-brained activity is very important, but so is the creation of artwork and originality in ideas and styles of the right-brain. If you have either brain, you should be cele-brated for being an individual and given equal opportunity.

Busy Beavers: Outstanding Students at Beaverton HighIntroducing Kaya Patton and her visit with Vice President, Joe Biden
Spring Break is an exciting time for any high school student.
Some students get to travel, some spend their time hibernating to make up for lost sleep, but few can say they had dinner with one of the most powerful men in America:
student, senior Kaya Patten, could make such a claim.
lives. Some of the most important women in the United States were in attendance, including Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sontemayor and, of course, Dr. Jill Biden. Patten’s mother helped work for Susan Bonamici’s campaign and was invited to accompany her to the dinner, an invitation she and her daughter excitedly accepted.
The dinner was not the tradi-tional sit-down meal that most were anticipating. They served appetiz-ers such as crab puffs and quarter sized ice cream sandwiches, which were to die for, according to Patten. Though it was not what Patten had envisioned, she was still not disap-pointed at all, “It was amazing. The
it was relaxed, but there was a buzz of intellect which was really fun.”
At the event, Patten listened to the vice president discuss how women are sculpting the United States. Then Dr. Jill Biden’s presented what she would like to see happen for women in the future. For Patten, the experience was almost unbelievable, “Every time we turned a corner there was someone really important standing there… it was crazy.”
Patten even had the opportunity
to talk to the vice president him-self, and was surprised at how

For Patten, it was an experience she wouldn’t trade for the world. “I’ve gone to work with my mom and I’ve lobbied and I’ve talked with powerful people but never that many that quickly, and I learned a lot about presenting yourself and introducing yourself and talking yourself up.” As an aspiring politi-cian herself, this will certainly be a day to remember.

BEAVERTON CIVIC THEATRE
Synopsis: Bernard Pomerance’s The Elephant Man poses many questions that remain relevant today. The most obvious revolve around the eponymous Joseph Merrick. We are asked to consider the true measure of a man. Merrick’s condition sets him apart from the rest of the world but the pursuit of normalcy is a capricious quest when no one can really decide what normalcy is. He was put up in comfortable lodgings and supposedly made friends with a great many important people. He became something of a celebrity in his own right. Yet were these people really his friends or had they simply come to gawk as others had done during the sideshow? The intrinsic brutality of society is a recurring image in the piece.
The character of Frederick Treves presents other questions. The play begins and ends with Treves and it is his crisis of conscience that the audience must experience. Are the rules set out “for our own good” really so good after all? As Mer-rick’s condition deteriorates, we see Treves’s certainties about goodness, faith, and propriety do the same. The audience must feel the same heartache as Treves as he comes to realize that all he has held to be true and righteous is in reality false and hollow. The Elephant Man is a play about questions and ques-tioning and it leaves it up to the audience to seek the answers for themselves.
