Hello Beaverton,

Start your engines! It’s time to take a vir-tual drive in this issue down Canyon Road to TV Hwy . Look to your right and then to your left and what do you see: new car lots, used cars lots, service centers, body shops, transmissions, brakes, lube & tunes, gas stations, part shops and just about everything else you could need for your automobile. Drive down this stretch of road in your car during the day and regard-less of traffic, you’d be hard pressed to make out the names of the dealerships let alone the signage for the other auto businesses there. So needless to say, it’s for this very reason we created the Row monthly feature. Each issue we’ll add more detail to the map and more businesses to the directory... anything to help you find what you need for your car without having to turn on the engine!

Another new addition in this issue is a loc-ally submitted recipe that we’ll feature in our dining section each month. Our expert food photographer, Sammy Gould, has graciously agreed to try them out and take beautiful photos of the results all for the benefit of our readers.

A “missing link” in the popular Fanno Creek Regional Trail has

been completed and is now open to bicyclists, joggers and walkers.The Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District nished the half-mile segment the rst week of January. It extends from the intersection of Scholls Ferry Road and Allen Blvd to the end of 105th Court (near the intersection of Denney Road and Highway 217).Funded by system development charges, the $1.6 million project means users are able to travel 4½ miles of largely continuous, paved trail between THPRD’s Garden Home Recreation Center and Tigard’s Englewood Park near Scholls Ferry Road.

“The Fanno Creek Trail is already very popular, and we expect it to be even more popular now that this new segment is nished,’’ said Hal Bergsma, THPRD’s

director of Planning. “Until now, when trail users came to the missing link, they had to gure out on their own how to reconnect with the trail. Now, their path is mostly uninterrupted.’’

THPRD project manager Brad Hauschild said electronic sensors show that 70,000-80,000 people currently use the trail’s north segment each year, while 120,000 users pass through the trail’s south end tunnel at Scholls Ferry Road. He expects those numbers to

increase now that the new segment is open.The 10-foot-wide-trail addition features 11 boardwalks over wetland areas, offering users potential sightings of birds and other wildlife, including deer. In addition, thousands of native plants and shrubs will be planted along the restored stream corridor.One small section of the new trail, near the City of Beaverton operations facility and Scholls Ferry Road, is temporarily unpaved. However, the compacted gravel segment is open to the public and usable. It was left unpaved until Washington County

can complete plans for a future bridge replacement/road widening project. THPRD, the City of Beaverton and Washington County will work together to coordinate completion of the trail section with the bridge replacement/road widening, scheduled for this summer.

Two women go for a stroll on the new half-mile segment of the Fanno Creek Trail. The Park District of cially opened the new link the rst week in January.

A Beaverton singer who’s been wowing friends and family for years took her talent to the

“American Idol” stage and performed for millions.

Haley Johnsen, 23, was among the singing competition’s top 24 contestants this season, but was booted when the group was whittled down to 13 singers.

Despite her elimination, the “Idol” judges had nothing but good things to say about Johnsen.

“It’s tough. Haley is very talented. This top 24 that we had, they were all there because we love them. Because, y’know, we chose them and I think that’s what the American people forget. We love all of them. It’s just that you’ve got to be con-sistent in order to win this,” said judge Randy Jackson.

“Oh, God, I loved Haley. Haley, I still love you. She’s good. Don’t ever stop singing, Haley,” said judge Steven Tyler.

Johnsen said she had no regrets and did her best.

“I know there’s this inner drive within me that’s like, ‘C’mon, go. Fly away. You can do it,’” Johnsen told “Idol” pro-ducers earlier in the competition.

when she was very young, her mother told FOX 12. But it was years until John-

sen stepped onto a stage and dazzled classmates during a homecoming assem-bly.

After graduating from Beaverton High School, Johnsen headed to Oregon State University and performed with an a cappella group. Supporters said Johnsen’s musical ambitions were well known in Corvallis and she would often

sing at local venues.During her stint on the show, Johnsen’s

friends and family showed their sup-port by attending viewing parties, one of which erupted into cheers when they saw Johnsen make the cut into the top 24 singers.

Earlier in the competition, many of Johnsen’s fans talked about how deserv-ing she is of her success.

“Haley is such a sweet person,” said Greta Frey, who worked with Johnsen at a cafe. “It’s just exciting for me knowing that someone who deserves it so much got such an amazing opportunity.”

As for the future, Johnsen’s mother has a pretty good guess what her daughter will be up to.

“I completely think she’s going to get a record deal at some point. I know that this is what she wants to do full-time,” said Diane Johnsen. Follow the rest of the “American Idol” season Wednesdays and Thursdays at 8 p.m. on FOX 12 Oregon.

Home-grown singer makes splash on ‘Idol’

By FOX 12 Staff

Haley Johnsen performs “Sweet Dreams” on the “American Idol” stage. The Beaverton High School

graduate made it into the show’s top 24 contestants.

Despite elimination, judges gush about Haley Johnsen’s talent

Photography is my favorite hobby and I am constantly trying to learn and improve my skills. Someday I would love to be a professional Wildlife Photographer but until then, I’ll practice on other interest-ing subjects like my family, friends, pets and food

I’m always happy to try out new recipes, especially easy slow

cooker recipes. So when Wayne Garcia, Anchor at KPTV, shared his recipe for a slow cooker chili and said that it was “the best chili in the world”, I was determined to test it out.

Wayne often shares some of his family’s fabulous recipes on his Facebook fan page and I’ve tried them out before. The results, well lets just say that my family is never disappointed and I never have leftovers at the end of the meal.

The ingredients for this recipe are easily found at most grocery stores. Personally, I’ve been shop-ping quite often at New Seasons Market in Progress Ridge. I love supporting local businesses. The access to fresh, home-grown pro-duce is important when cooking and until the Beaverton Farmers Market opens next month, this is my store of choice. Another good reason I shop here is because the friendly butcher cut the piece of Chuck I needed into smalls bits perfect for this recipe.

Ingredients

1 pound Chuck cut into small bits (your butcher can cut for you)

2 cans pinto beans

1 can red beans

1 can kidney beans

¼ onion chopped

Chili Powder (at least 2 Tbsp.)

Salt to taste

Cooking Instructions

Fry the meat in a little oil, then add about 3 T flour and brown and pour into Slow Cooker. Add rest of ingredients and cook on high for 5 hours (drain two of the three cans of beans, leave one full). The meat gets very tender toward end of cooking. (Serves 10)

Garnish with small bowls of:

2 Jalapeños minced

Cilantro chopped

1/2 cup onion chopped

Set out bowls with garnish. Serve with tortillas or freshly baked corn bread.

ART Dining Spotlight: Hapa Grill

Hapa Grill truly follows the meaning of Hapa. The food served here is an extremely unique blend of Hawaiian,

Korean and Southeast Asian cuisines. Hapa Grill was opened by a Korean family who were armed with nothing more than a decades old kimchee recipe and a passion to cook for those

of cooking. Many recipes used here are family favorites that were handed down through generations. Others are great new dishes discovered on a family outings then reinvented in or-der to share with our fellow food enthusiasts in Beaverton. From Kalua Pork and Poke to Kimchee and Bulgogi, Hapa

Grill soon and take your own culinary adventure. You never know where the inspiration will lead you.

membership newsletter as part of the Beaverton Resource Guide, and provide advertising value to our members who choose to take advantage of it. The website pres-ence can do many things, but our community members still use prin-ted media to learn about events, specials, and businesses they may need to go visit. So, website only is not enough for everyone. Our focus for 2012 is to provide on-going value to our members and adding more members to our group so we may expand our circle of friends who are committed to doing business locally.

Our economy is getting better:

and houses are being bought and sold. These are the indicators that the recession is over for us. We have several elections this year and we need to be informed citizens to make good decisions about our future. The Aloha-Reedville study con-tinues and the results will estab-lish what Aloha will look like in 2020 and beyond.

Are you going to be a part of this or just wait and see what hap-pens? I invite you to join us! Learn about your neighbors and enjoy an informative program once a month at the Peppermill Restaurant. We look forward to seeing you at our next meeting on April 12th where we’ll hear from Pat Reser of Re-ser’s Fine Foods.

A Woman’s Work is Never DoneWash on Monday. Iron on Tues-day. Mend on Wednesday. Churn on Thursday. Clean on Fri-day. Bake on Saturday. Rest on Sunday.

FRIDAYAnother chore for pioneer wo-

men and young girls in the family was cleaning their homes. Al-though Friday was the designated day, housekeeping was a full-time job. Most tasks were done throughout the week. Houses and cabins were constructed of milled lumber, sod, or logs. Some had

dirt. Black soot and smoke from wood and coal burning stoves dirtied carpets, walls, and cur-tains. Running water and indoor plumbing were luxuries. Without them, housework was particu-larly challenging.

Floors had to be swept and scrubbed. That often meant sev-eral treks to the well or nearby stream to carry water back to the house. Some rinse water from washing clothes was set aside to

Indoor plumb-ing remained a luxury until the

-sive homes in urban areas began to feature bathrooms with a tub, sink, and toilet. Rural residents generally continued to use cham-ber pots that pioneer women 503-645-5353 | WashingtonCountyMuseum.org

emptied into the outhouse. Sinks without drains entailed dumping dish water and kitchen slops out-side.

Before electricity became widely available, kerosene lamps were commonly used. Kerosene, once called coal oil, was a popu-lar fuel, but it was smelly and left dark deposits on furniture and curtains. The lamps’ clear glass chimneys and globes had to be washed or wiped every day. In addition, ragged and charred wicks required trimming and lamps needed re-

hours of burning.Living in sod

houses of the prairie lands presented its own cleaning challenges. The con-stant wind carried dirt and dust that worked their way into nooks and crannies. Whitewash or fab-ric on interior walls helped keep out grime, but rodents and snakes found their way in and dirt fell from the ceilings.

Meier & Frank’s ad in the Febru-ary 19, 1903 issue of the Morn-ing Oregonian offered the Bissell sweeper at a sale price of $1.85, regularly $2.50. Then, a new and improved labor-saving device ap-

peared on the market.In 1869 a

Chicago inventor named Ives

McGaffey patent-ed a hand- powered

“sweeping machine” called the “Whirlwind.” The

device, however, was heavy and expensive and not particu-

larly practical. Thirty years later, a gasoline-powered vacuum cleaner became available and, in

was invented. Manufacturers promised “Spring Housecleaning

Once an area was settled,

a young girl to hire to help with household chores. Many women did domestic service for $1.00 – $3.00 per week in the early 20th century. Beaverton’s 1900 Federal census enumerates about ten women ages 17 – 32 employed in housekeeping or housework. It’s unclear, though, whether they were employed outside the home or did the chores for family.

After Friday, Beaverton pioneer women faced only one more daily task - bake on Saturday - which we will cover in next month’s installment of “A Woman’s Work is Never Done”.

Getting your three year old’s eyes examined is important.

In fact, it’s the most important eye examination they’ll ever have. The leading cause of vision impairment in children is called amblyopia (am-blee-OH-pee-uh). It is simple for optometrists and ophthalmologists to treat, but only if we catch it early.

In order for the eye-brain connection to form properly, the eyes need clear images during young childhood. Amblyopia results when one eye doesn’t receive a clear image and never learns to resolve detail. Parents don’t detect a

but only out of one eye. The treatment of amblyopia

involves patching the “good” eye for an hour or two per day until the eye-brain connection is formed.

Downtown Spotlight:

Karen Hernandez, Ph.D., LLC

When life gets you down, you feel overwhelmed, or

if you’re struggling in your rela-tionships at home or at work, it can be helpful to see a therapist who can lend a listening ear and provide you with tools to lead a more rewarding and satisfying life.

I am a licensed psychologist in Oregon who has been in prac-

tice since 2004. I work with adolescents and adults. My therapeutic approach is to provide support and practical feedback to help clients effectively address personal life challenges. I use a variety of evidenced based techniques to help my clients. A growing area of interest for me is the use of Animal Assisted Therapy to help clients and I’ll often bring my therapy dog to pre-determined sessions.

I was born to a bicultural family and grew up in Mex-ico. I am bilingual and value diversity in all its forms. I am a member of the Oregon Psychological Association

Identity theft has been around for as long as your personal in-

formation could be used to obtain products or services. As credit-ors allowed you to accumulate debt, or pay by check instead of cash, the more unscrupulous in society chose to take advantage. We are now faced with a system that, although not broken, does require constant attention and due diligence.

Identity theft is a serious crime. It occurs when your per-sonal information is stolen and used without your knowledge to commit fraud or other crimes. Identity theft can cost you copi-ous amounts of time and money. It can destroy your credit and ruin your good name. In this day

Public surveys list ‘lack of time’ as the primary reason

people cite for not taking steps to prepare. However, past weather events have shown that it doesn’t take an earthquake to disrupt life as we know it. When an earth-quake does occur, the demand on emergency services will be monumental. Families and busi-nesses may be on their own for days while emergency respon-ders focus on the most critical incidents and life safety threats.

TVF&R wants to help with your preparedness steps, including:

1. cooking, and heating/light-ing your home safely if you lose power.

2. Knowing when and how to shut off utilities.

3. you will reunite your family if separated.

For this reason, Candlelighters For Children With Cancer was es-tablished in 1977 with the mission to provide support, education, ad-vocacy and hope to all children and their families in Oregon and South-west Washington who face the challenges of a childhood cancer diagnosis. Candlelighters services include multi-faceted, frontline support to families throughout the different stages of pediatric cancer. They offer a wide array of free and effective support services because their board of directors and active volunteers represent the many faces of childhood cancer - providing knowledge, experience and support to families in need. Their services and entire network are available free of charge.

SUPPORTING THOSE IN NEEDCandlelighters provides assist-

ance to families of cancer patients as they battle the emotional stresses

of their experiences. Their mem-bers have been through it all and know how to help. They have a presence in each of Portland’s children’s hospitals that involves monthly catered meals for in-pa-tients and clinic patients and their families, a food pantry and Fri-day snack cart as well as Bedside Buddies and fully stocked toy boxes. Activities such as Sum-mer family camp, social activities and tickets to area sporting/enter-tainment events provide families the outlets needed to share the frustrations and fear caused by childhood cancer with families in similar situations. Families may also request assistance from the

enjoy a production with their children is amazing. It creates the full circle...students study in school, then with their families they attend an event that lends a new perspective on their learning, thereby allowing the parents to strengthen what is learned in school.”

“My inspiration is an enjoy-ment and love of food and wine, with all the ideas, memories and pleasures you feel while enjoy-ing a meal with friends,” ex-plains Ulrich. “I explore how to express that in paint, either with a picture that is object based or a painting that is more about ex-pressing the colors and essence of the moment.”

We moved from Southern California to Oregon in

1994. We were burned out from a grueling life in the restaurant busi-ness where my husband was a chef and I was a manager. We needed a change of scenery. Shortly before we moved, an article appeared in Sunset magazine singing the praises of a fantastic farmers mar-ket in Beaverton, Oregon. I had no

Labor Day Weekend, 1995, also Ginger’s birthday, hence all of the flowers. The children in the photo are now 28, 25 and 22. What you don’t see is the little red wagon behind us that we would fill every week with delicious, fresh local foods. My children grew up in the market and have always been fortunate enough to know who grew the carrots they were eating.

idea where Beaverton was at the time, but I tore out the article and

it once we arrived. Imagine how delighted I was to discover that the market in the article was only about 10 minutes from our new house.

We were lucky enough to have fallen in love with cook-ing at the time when America’s

two most influential chefs were Alice Waters and Wolfgang Puck, both of whom preached the importance of cooking with fresh quality ingredients. Our first trip to the Beaverton Farm-ers Market was a shopping ex-perience like none we had ever had. Being hard core foodies from Los Angeles we were ser-ious about what we ate and this market showed us how to be ser-ious about where it came from.

After becoming faithful shop-pers every Saturday, the position for market manager, or market master, as it was called then, was announced in the newspa-per. I had to apply!! As it turns out, my background in event planning, ornamental horticul-ture and cooking was enough to convince the Board to hire me. Seventeen years later, there is still no place that I would rather be on a Saturday morning. It is my great privilege to do a job that I am deeply honored to do and that is to connect the finest local producers with an amazing community of consumers.

The City’s Beaverton Cares program is making free tax help available to area residents, and encouraging eligible low- and middle-income families to take advantage of the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC).

“Helping low-income families get the most out of their tax returns ensures that they’ll have more funds to get their basic needs met,” said Mayor Denny Doyle. “The EITC helps vulnerable fam-ilies and stimulates our regional economy.”

We do not work for dealers! Why does this matter? Because dealers

to do a fast and cheap job on one car then do a thorough and complete job on your car? It’s impossible. Long ago we decided to work for customers who needed a service and were willing to pay a fair amount for it.

Have you ever bought a car from a dealer and you had to hassle with them over the price? Imagine doing that on every single detail job. No

As many of us know, driving down Canyon Road west towards Hillsboro is like running an auto-

motive gauntlet. Left and right for at least 5 miles, auto related businesses pepper the landscape: from dealer-ships to window tinting and tire shops, this stretch of road that was once fondly referred to as “Canyon Strip, Auto Row” by old-timers has everything a car owner needs and more. Can you believe it? All this auto awesomeness thanks to a simple man with a vis-ion almost 100 years ago.

Aside from his business endeavors, Otto served as mayor from 1917-1926 and 1928 to 1931. He also

Now our living room, which my husband always dreamed would remain the one nice place in the house for adults to hang out, is covered in hay and bark chips. There are loads of old towels to add to my laundry pile, and the girls have snatched most of our produce as “snacks” for the pig-gies. But what is most concerning is my 3 yr-old’s “love” for her pet,

day where she is not lugging this poor animal around, cooing to

But last night my patience wore thin as I had hours of work deadlines looming over me but had to spend an extra hour getting my 3 yr-old to sleep because of the following claims:1. Her Guinea pig couldn’t fall

asleep.2. Her Guinea pig would like to

learn to read and cannot go to sleep until Kiana teaches her.

3. Her Guinea pig would like to be mailed somewhere—

4. My tea bag was too loud and it woke her.

5. She thought I called her name, so she came downstairs... AGAIN.

6. She remembered tomor-row was library day, but she couldn’t remember how to get to the library. Also, she was fairly sure the librarian wanted her to bring her Guinea pig.
