You Don’t Fail at Diets. Diets Fail You!

In my 13 years as a health and fitness professional and coaching hundreds of people, I can honestly say that the clients I work with oneon-one who focus on changing their lifestyle over losing weight as quickly as possible are 99% more likely to succeed. When it comes to “getting healthy,” your mentality plays a HUGE role in your success. It is a matter of diet mentality vs. lifestyle mentality.

Diet mentality often has an end date or an end weight, and once you reach that end date/

weight, then you can go back to “normal,” which usually means you stop doing the things that got you results and go back to doing what you did before. People are often SUPER DUPER strict with what they eat and how much they eat and end up doing endless exercise for three to four hours a day!

This is why yo-yo dieting plagues our society, so instead, think of a lifestyle mentality! A lifestyle mentality is knowing there is no end date or end weight, instead this is an adoption of a whole new life.

This is your new “normal.”

Try eating quality foods 85% of the time while still having room for less quality foods (ie. alcohol, Oreos, cereal, etc.) and working out/intentionally moving your body at least 45 minutes every single day.

Changing your perspective on your health journey will save you time, money and change your life for the better.

Seen and Heard

Unlocking language comprehension in autism

We acknowledge that humans are individuals. However, do we understand the methods by which a human brain forms concepts, learns through the physical environment, and develops language which then allows for further learning? “Language is the exchange of ideas and pictures with one another,” Pauline Lee, founder of Program for Intellectual Empowerment (P.I.E.) points out. P.I.E. is based on how language and the brain function together, forming the ability to comprehend and communicate concepts. This process does not occur in the same way or in the same timeframe for every person. “P.I.E. is dedicated to educate and empower those with learning disabilities in a setting that allows them to flourish in society,” they state.

Children who have been diagnosed as “learning disabled” or exhibit “bad behavior” may be struggling to connect the words of what is said with the intended picture concept. For example, a child in this scenario, when told to put on his shoes and socks, may very well put shoes on first and attempt to put the socks over the shoes. This child is neither stupid nor “bad.” The picture concept interpreted through the child’s understanding

of language simply does not match up with the instructor’s picture. P.I.E. recognizes the complexity of how the brain learns and is committed to further developing connections in the brain between language and concepts. “We utilize Dr. Ellyn Arwood’s Neuroeducational model to stimulate the mind and equip those in the program with tools to adapt, problem-solve, and communicate effectively,” says Pauline.

Voted “Best Private Program in Beaverton,” P.I.E. is a nonprofit organization serving individuals with autism spectrum disorder and other developmental disabilities. “We don’t believe that there’s anything that needs ‘fixing’ in these kids,” Pauline says. “We believe that they’re already created and made beautifully and it is our job to raise them up to be better versions of themselves.” P.I.E. works hard to help participants discover and connect with

who they are and to find out what they really care about, because, as Pauline tells them, “If you find the things you care about, you can make a career out of it, because ‘care’ is in the word ‘career.”

Those with sensory issues are guided

in helping the brain develop to inhibit and integrate unwanted stimuli, allowing the individual to ignore loud noises and such, and not rely on modifiers such as headphones. Behaviors are addressed through focusing on the language picture concept. If suboptimal behavior is exhibited in response to an instruction,

BUSINESS FEATURE PROGRAM FOR INTELLECTUAL EMPOWERMENT 14 TO ADVERTISE WITH US, CALL 503.825.2111

for example, staff members will never blame the individual for a lack of understanding, but will ask themselves, “Did I do a good enough job explaining to them? Helping them to see the whole picture?”

For many program participants, P.I.E. is a last hope. About half of those who enroll at the center have been displaced or asked to leave other programs. Some arrive as nonverbal, though they begin to talk while attending P.I.E. “Anyone who comes through our doors sees drastic differences,” Pauline shares. At P.I.E., participants are also encouraged to create and explore through painting. Pauline saw first-hand how painting changed the life of her 13-year-old autistic cousin. From that experience grew Artful Autism, an art studio located above P.I.E. which hosts

events and is open to the public. The studio serves as a place to bridge walls between peers, build relationships and connections, socialize and make friendships. It likewise provides an opportunity for the art staff, most of whom have a disability, chronic illness or neurodivergence, to gain skills and learn, and to work on their own craft. As Pauline believes, “Life isn’t about finding yourself – it’s about creating yourself.”

Pauline Lee is a teacher who holds a Masters in Neuroscience. She founded the Program for Intellectual Empowerment in 2018 – the same year she enrolled in University of Portland’s neuroscience program, which she completed in 2021. The inspiration for P.I.E. came to her at age 19 with the belief that she would open a program one day and change the world. Today, Pauline’s dream is to open additional P.I.E. locations across the nation, and she hopes as well “to shift the paradigm of education to a better model neurologically,” she expresses.

P.I.E. is located at 6700 SW 105th Ave. Suite 100, Beaverton. Call (503)5724718 or email pie.empowered@gmail. com. Visit their website autismminds. org. Artful Autism is located above P.I.E. in suite 307. Visit artfulautism.com for more information.

FIRST FRIDAY ART WALK

An Urban Canvas

Spotlighting local artists, small businesses

The Pacific Northwest is home to some of the world’s most talented and distinctive artists. Through various creative mediums, they capture the region’s beauty and celebrate our ever-evolving culture. Join the community for the First Friday Art Walk, which pairs unique businesses in Downtown Beaverton with local artists and makers for an evening the whole family will love.

The charming neighborhood is a vibrant mix of diverse dining options, specialty boutiques, bookstores, taprooms and other independent businesses. The Art Walk has been a monthly event since last summer. “We wanted to tap into the amazing levels of artistic talent that exist in the Portland Metro area and all through the Pacific Northwest and combine that initiative with supporting our downtown,” says Kyle Todd, executive director of the Downtown Beaverton Association. “Visitors can enjoy a glass of wine or a nice dinner out and enjoy the artists we’re displaying in each business location.”

The Art Walk is from 6 pm to 9 pm on the first Friday of each month. Participating businesses stay open to host a local creator who is available to visit with the community and showcase their work for purchase. They represent numerous modes of artistic production that include traditional visual arts as well as creative craftsmanship. “We’ve had photographers, painters, sculptors, jewelry-makers, artisan chocolatiers, and more,” Kyle shares. “As long as there’s creative expression, that’s what we’re after.”

Visitors can buy artwork to enjoy in their own homes or gift a piece of the Pacific Northwest to friends and family. Each month, a collectible event poster designed and signed by a local graphic artist raises funds for the Downtown Beaverton Association. All proceeds are split with the artist.

The Downtown Beaverton Association seeks to inspire the greater community to discover the eclectic collection of storefronts that line their friendly city streets. “We want folks to have the opportunity to walk around and enjoy the art as well as get to know these incredible small businesses,” Kyle says.

Special consideration goes into every location as they work to pair artists and businesses together that complement one another. “For example, a jewelry maker may showcase their art at a vintage clothing store. Syndicate Wine has a fantastic gallery wall, so they are well-suited for artists with larger pieces,” says Kyle. Businesses that don’t already offer food are encouraged to provide snacks and refreshments to make the experience even better. “Gray Raven Gallery, for instance, will typically have wine and charcuterie for their guests.”

So gather friends and head to Downtown Beaverton to explore local artists amongst the delightful dining and shopping scene. Attending the event is free for all ages, and participation is cost-free for artists and small businesses. “It’s important that we support small, locally owned businesses as much as possible,” Kyle emphasizes. “A greater percentage of the funds stay in the community, making all the difference for so many people.”

The First Friday Art Walk is held the first Friday of every month from 6 to 9 p.m. in Downtown Beaverton. Visit www.downtownbeaverton.org for more information including an interactive map.

Clearing the Air

Northwest Breeze remains Oregon’s top-rated air duct cleaner

Americans spend 90% of their time indoors, and studies show that air inside is two to five times more polluted than the air outside. Our homes can accumulate up to 40 pounds of debris in the HVAC system every year, and that’s for households with no pets. The Science Advisory Board has stated that indoor air pollution is one of the top five environmental risks to public health.

What does all of this mean to homeowners? It’s an absolute imperative to follow the EPA’s guidelines and schedule your air ducts to be cleaned at least once every three to five years. And when it comes to the cleaning and maintenance of your HVAC system, there’s no one better in the Willamette Valley and Portland areas than Google’s top-rated air duct cleaners,

Northwest Breeze.

Northwest Breeze absolutely guarantees the work they do, employing the usage of a Negative Air Vacuum, a complex system that uses a compressed-air blower to clear the ducts while a vacuum traps the hazardous particles and releases them outside your home. Their method is the only one on the market, in fact, that cleans the entire HVAC system effectively and without damaging the ducts. Whether cleaning your cold air returns, supply vents, furnace burners, outdoor A/C units and coils or dryer vents, they use all of the most effective, efficient tools and methods in the industry.

Northwest Breeze is a locally-owned and -operated business with strong ties to the community. Support your family’s health while supporting local business. Contact Northwest Breeze today for a free quote. Call 503-851-0212 or check them out online at nwbreezeor.com for more information.

CREATING JOY FOR CHILDREN FIGHTING CRITICAL ILLNESS

My name is Indie. I am 6 years old.

My wish was to be a princess. I love putting on princess outfits, going in the backyard and belting out my favorite songs. In fact, my neighbors knew when I got sick with cancer because they didn’t hear me singing in the backyard anymore.

After treatment, my wish brought me to Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at the Walt Disney World® Resort. It was a total surprise. It brought me to this very good place where I wanted to be for two years. It felt like I was in the world where princesses live. I loved it very much!

My wish also created a special core memory for my family as we were watching the fireworks over the castle. I wanted to show my mom and dad how happy I felt, so I took a glow stick and made the shape of a cancer ribbon to wave high. It showed me that fighting cancer gives me power.

Today, I’m asking you to support me in donating so we can share that renewed strength with future wish kids.

Let’s show other kids in our community what can happen when a group of caring people rally around them to make dreams come true. Donate today in support of local, life-changing wishes, like mine.

Hoaxes & Hilaria

April Fools’ Day through the ages

Gregorian Calendar

April Fools’ Day is often credited to the calendar reform of 1582 in France, during the transition from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar. Before this change, the new year began with the spring equinox around April 1, consistent with traditions in other cultures such as the Hindu calendar.

However, with the adoption of the Gregorian calendar and the shifting of New Year’s Day to January 1, the observance of the new year got complicated. Some people were unaware or just refused to change and continued to celebrate the new year in late March through April 1, and these people were subjected to jests and pranks and mockingly called “April fools.”

A popular prank played back then involved placing paper fish on the backs of unsuspecting victims and referring to them as “poisson d’avril” (April fish), a term which supposedly symbolized both the innocence of a young, easily caught fish and that person’s gullibility. From there, a tradition of good-humored tricks, pranks and mischief began.

Hilaria in Rome

April Fools’ Day’s origins have also been credited to festivals like Hilaria in ancient Rome, celebrated by followers of the cult of Cybele. Hilaria, “joyful” in Latin, involved disguises and mockery, possibly inspired by Egyptian mythology. Another theory suggests a tie to the vernal equinox, with nature’s unpredictable weather fooling people.

The tradition spread in Britain during the 18th century, with Scotland adding a two day celebration. The first day, “hunting

the gowk,” sent people on fake errands (gowk meaning cuckoo bird, a symbol for a fool). This was followed by Tailie Day, featuring pranks on people’s butts such as pinning fake tails or “kick me” signs on them.

Modern Day

Nowadays April Fools’ Day has become a playground for elaborate hoaxes. Newspapers, TV stations and websites will often create outrageous fictional claims to fool their audiences. In 1957, the BBC reported a record spaghetti crop in Switzerland, complete with footage of noodles being harvested from trees. In 1985, Sports Illustrated published a fake article about a pitcher named Sidd Finch throwing over 168 mph.

In 1992, NPR had a Richard Nixon impersonator announce a presidential run. In 1996, Taco Bell announced the purchase of Philadelphia’s Liberty Bell, renaming it the Taco Liberty Bell. And lastly, in 1998, Burger King advertised a “Left-Handed Whopper.” Google, on the other hand, has now become known for its annual pranks, from a “telepathic search” to turning Google Maps into Pac Man.

Cows, Racing, and Western Wonderland

The history of Alpenrose Dairy

Pony rides? Baseball? Go kart racing? A person unfamiliar with the history of Alpenrose Dairy might frown in confusion at the mention of such activities in relationship to a dairy, but for those of us fortunate enough to have grown up in the Portland area during the last half of the 20th century, the name Alpenrose conjures up so much more than just dairy products.

It all began in 1896 when Florian Cadonau, a Swiss immigrant, moved to Oregon with his wife Agnes. The couple purchased a dairy at 35th and Vermont (known then as Hoffman Road) and started delivering milk to customers via horse-drawn buggy. At the time, many Swiss immigrants were moving to Portland due to the state’s fertile land and temperate climate. So similar were Oregon and Switzerland in this respect that in 1912, Paul Ritter, the Swiss Ambassador to the United States, while touring the state called Oregon “a second, but a larger Switzerland.”

In 1916, Henry Cadonau, Florian’s son, along with his wife Rosina (daughter of the Swiss consul to Portland) took over the family business. Henry and Rosina established their own farm nearby at 45th and Vermont which they named Alpenrose Dairy. The next few decades saw Alpenrose expand its operations, thriving while other competing dairies fell prey to mergers and consolidations. However, in 1943 a fire destroyed a barn and other equipment, and the decision was made to relocate Alpenrose to its present location on Shattuck Road. For years the Alpenrose delivery truck was a common sight in Portland neighborhoods, delivering milk in glass bottles straight to the milk box at one’s front door. At its height, Alpenrose had 50 delivery trucks and 35,000 customers.

It was during the 1950s when Henry’s grandsons were playing baseball too near Rosina’s rose garden (and trampling some of her plants) that she tasked her husband with building a baseball field for the boys. It wasn’t long before the local Little League was playing there also, and dugouts, lights, and a scoreboard were subsequently added. In the following years two more fields were constructed, and Alpenrose became known for its excellent baseball facilities. For a number of years Alpenrose Field even hosted the Little League Softball World Series which was broadcast on ESPN.

As it turned out, the baseball fields were just the beginning of Alpenrose’s involvement in the community. A hundred Shetland ponies were purchased by the family shortly thereafter, and pony rides were offered to children visiting the dairy. The Cadonaus also brought the ponies to local events — making it possible for numerous children to experience their first horseback ride. Alpenrose trotted out their ponies to represent the dairy in many city parades as well.

LOCAL HISTORY ALPENROSE DAIRY 24 TO ADVERTISE WITH US, CALL 503.825.2111

Soon baseball and ponies were not the only attractions drawing people to Alpenrose. Uncle Ray, the father of Rod Birkland — a cousin of the Cadonau boys — being mechanically-minded, came up with the idea of a quarter-midget racing track. It wasn’t long before the idea became a reality, and child-sized race cars were zooming around a track a quartermile in length, set in a natural bowl shaped area with seating for up to 500 spectators. In addition to the midget racing track, a velodrome facility was added in 1967 for bicycle racing. Carl Cadonau Sr. was sold the idea by the owner of Kissler’s Cyclery, a longtime bicycle shop in Southwest Portland. At the time the Pan American games needed a location for cycling trials. The Alpenrose Velodrome was one of the first constructed in the U.S. for that purpose, and with the steepest bank of any outdoor velodrome in the world, it drew enthusiasts from around the globe.

With the popularity of the aforementioned facilities, the Cadonaus created a final addition to their burgeoning recreational wonderland — Dairyville. A dairy-themed village with Old West-style storefronts, the charming attraction featured a doll museum, a harness-maker’s shop, an ice cream parlor, a music shop, and a 600-seat opera house with a Skinner pipe organ (now located in Portland’s Keller Auditorium). For decades, Dairyland was the nexus of a plethora of community events, ranging from “Sunday Fundays” featuring kite flying and frog races to visits from Rusty Nails, a popular clown with a local television show for children. From trapeze acts to chariot racing, Alpenrose grew from just a local attraction to a major amusement venue for the entire region.

The winter holiday season saw Alpenrose transform into a magical place. Christmas in Dairyville featured Storybook Lane, an elaborate display with live animal displays and 300 Christmas trees set in a miniature town. Each year 400 volunteers gathered to set up and host this traditional event that drew thousands of families from around the area.

Rosina Cadonau became known simply as “Grandma” to generations of fourthgraders who field-tripped to Alpenrose to learn the operations of a dairy. “Swiss Miss” taught the children how to milk a cow and then escorted them across the street for ice cream and cookies baked by “Grandma.”

Today, Alpenrose Dairy remains in operation, but Dairyville is closed. The race tracks and sports fields, too, face an uncertain future. A dispute between family members that ended in litigation resulted in Alpenrose being sold to the Kent, Washington-based Smith Brothers Farms. Smith Brothers continue to operate the dairy under the Alpenrose name. In July of 2021, items from the former Storybook Lane and Dairyville were sold at auction, bringing to a close one of Portland’s most cherished cultural treasures.

For those of us who grew up in Portland with the good fortune to partake in the sporting events, pony rides, fireworks, and holiday fun that was Alpenrose, we will forever miss this magical place. But we should all thank the Cadonau family for their generosity, decades of hard work, and a community spirit that transformed a regular dairy into a place that will reside in our memories forever!
