stalwart unicorn, a decrepit dragon, and an exhausted turtle walk into a tavern. As defender of the forest, the unicorn holds the door for the others. As a hoarder of treasure, the dragon VWL൵V WKH EDUWHQGHU RQ WKH WLS $V a father of four with no gift of magic or money, the turtle sips his mead without speaking. A raven crosses the threshold, causing a stir. By now, the trickster reputation of ravens had sunk deep into the forest lore, and none of the other creatures were entirely comfortable around a surfeit of black feathers. “My dear fellow,” called the unicorn. “Come take your ease at my table. All creatures are welcome at my side.” The turtle rolled his eyes. “Are you insane?” hissed the dragon. “He will trick me out of my gold.” “Nonsense,” the unicorn
defended. “You have lain too long in your cave, dragon, shunning the world out of fear for your wealth. What do you know of brotherhood?” The dragon curled its tail. “Well, you have gamboled too long on your immortal mountaintop, judging everything and everyone around you but yourself. What do you know of cost?” The raven regarded each with curiosity. The unicorn tossed his head in disdain. “Ignore him, Brother Raven. I will treat you to the carrion of your choice.” “Be it on your head, I warned you.” The dragon clutched his ÀDJRQ FORVHU 7KH UDYHQ ÀDSSHG KLV ZLQJV and hopped to the turtle’s table.
“What say you, patron? Do I EDVN LQ WKH XQLFRUQ¶V VX൵HUance or steal from the cowardly dragon?” The turtle looked up from his mead with tired eyes. “Either way, don’t drink the ale. The pitcher doubles as the bartender’s chamber pot.” The unicorn and the dragon look into their cups, turning a telling shade of green, and the raven and the turtle are fast friends from that moment on.

Beaverton Downtown Association
Dramatic Enhancements Coming to the Nak Won Building
All levels and all ages welcome! Call Terry at 503-707-4554
T
he Beaverton Downtown Association, has secured the $200,000 Oregon Main Street Revitalization Grant to restore the Nak Won Building in the heart of downtown Beaverton’s restaurant row. Construction will begin this June and end in March 2020. Improvements include a new roof, repaired façade, transparent operable windows, upgraded sidewalks, vibrant building color, better lighting, and enhanced signage. The increase in visibility is expected to bring vibrance to the area and boost the appeal of surrounding businesses. Better lighting and upgraded windows will enhance public perception of safety in the downtown area, while enabling pedestrians to see bustling activity inside the businesses. The prime location of the project at the intersection of 1st and Watson makes it a priority for rehabilitation. The BDA’s aim is to help each business distinguish itself visually, in compelling and inviting ways. In that spirit, the building will display a mural that honors the importance of the tiger in Korean culture. “We are thrilled for this opportunity to branch out and expand upon what our parents built before us. It feels good to continue their legacy with the support of the Oregon Main Street Revitalization Grant,” said Nak Won owner Kon Lee. The Nak Won Building is home to six diverse businesses. They serve the Korean, Middle Eastern and Central American communities in Beaverton, and attract a broad customer base.

LOCAL BUSINESS
M
ay is an anniversary month for me. Back in 2012, a business partnership between me and my former mentor/business partner failed. Miserably. It was a pretty rough time for me personally. I started with that company in 1991. Worked hard! Was a top salesman...a sales manager...and after a while, my boss let me buy a stake in the company! Then in 2005 he retired, and my wife and I began making payments...with dreams of 100% ownership. Then 2007 hit. One of the works crashes and economies in our countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history. We coped though. Did the right things. Trimmed, cut, ran lean...got creative. We did everything we could to survive. But around 2011, after asking our partner to renegotiate the terms of our agreement... we realized he was not going to budge, and things were just not going to work out. May 2012, we turned the keys back over to him. I felt like a failure. Most things in my industry had always come easily to me...and any that did not were conquered by my determination and hard work ethic. What got me through? Well, apart from my INCREDIBLE ZLIH LW ZDV ÂżWQHVV %RRW FDPSV WR be exact. I love boot camp, high LQWHQVLW\ ÂżWQHVV Working out regularly got me through some really, really tough ÂżQDQFLDO DQG HPRWLRQDO WLPHV ,Q fact, if I was not into boot camps (or any form of regular activity) I am pretty sure I would not have come out of my funk that cleanly. Fast forward to 2019. My current company is over 6 years old and thriving. Owning your own business is tough. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fun, but supremely hard work. What keeps me powered up and going strong? Activity. Fitness. Yep, still doing boot camps and loving it. I also love walking my 2 dogs as much as I can...and playing tennis with my wife.

Pet Lost & Found No matter what you do... MOVE! If you are not a gym rat, a cross ÂżWWHU D ERRW FDPSHU RU D UXQQHU simply go for a walk. Every day. Most days of the week. Bike, hike, swim, or buy a dog so you can walk it. Just Move! People who are active, or exercise regularly sleep better and have more energy. They have more positive attitudes, clearer minds and feel more positively about themselves. I guarantee you, that every time you take a walk or a quick/simple work out...you will be rewarded with feeling better the rest of the day. It will also help you crush your challenges and clear your hurdles. When you move, you generate the release of powerful neurotransmitters (like serotonin and dopamine) that are mood enhancers, FRQÂżGHQFH EXLOGHUV DQG DQWL IDtigue powerhouses. When you feel emotionally well, you are able to control your state of mind...and cope better with all the craziness life throws at you. If you are a salesperson, or a manager, or a business owner, or an anything...you need every edge, every angle, every advantage you can get. The very best thing you can do for yourself (physically & mentally) is move. Be active. 5+ days per week. Make time for it! Your mind... your body...your soul will thank you in powerful ways. â&#x20AC;˘ â&#x20AC;˘

Your dog running loose may seem like no big deal but to others it can be an unwelcome or scary experience. Not everyone feels safe around dogs and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important we all respect that we share our park spaces.

his can be a tricky one because you don’t want to ignore an animal in need, but you also don’t want to be accused of catnapping! Start by getting a photo of the cat and then talking to your neighbors to see if he belongs to anyone nearby. You can use an app like Nextdoor, a local lost and found Facebook group, or go the more old-fashioned route of walking around and knocking on doors. If nobody knows him, he may indeed need help. Bring the cat to us and we will scan for a microchip and add him to our database of found animals. You can leave the cat with us at the shelter for a $10 fee to KHOS R൵VHW WKH FRVWV RI FDUH
Q: Can my kids volunteer at the animal shelter this summer? It depends on their ages and availability into the fall! Our volunteers must be 16 years of age or older and we ask for a weekly commitment for at least six months. Younger people or those looking for a shorter-term project to help the shelter can consider holding a fundraiser to help the animals.

Everyone can get involved to help prevent injuries. During National Safety Month, United Homecare Services is working with community members to help reduce the risk of injuries. This June, we encourage you to learn more about important safety issues like preventing poisonings, transportation safety, and slips, trips, and falls. • Poisonings: Nine out of 10 poisonings happen right at home. You can be poisoned by many things, like cleaning products or another person’s medicine. • Transportation safety: Doing other activities while

Everyone can do something to reduce his or her risk of injury. driving – like texting or eating – distracts you and increases your chance of crashing. Almost 1 in 6 crashes where someone is injured involves distracted driving. • Slips, trips, and falls: More than 1 in 4 older adults fall each year. Many falls lead to broken bones or head injuries.
Evaluate your home, area by area, for hazards. Here are a few things to look for: • Walkways are clear, steps are in good condition, and the area is well lit at night. • Hallways are free of clutter, loose rugs are removed or secured, adequate lighting is in place. • Living area is free of loose
electrical cords, furniture is stable and there’s plenty of space to move around. • Frequently used items in the kitchen are visible and easily reached. • Bed is adequate height and easily accessible.

sure you are working with a reputable licensed contractor.

helped me is about a year ago, after consulting with my doctor and allergist, I decided to start getting allergy shots. These shots are an immunotherapy form of treatment. How they work is every week for
a couple of months you get a shot containing a small amount of the things youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re allergic to. After a couple months you start getting the shots once a month for around 2-4 more years, depending on the severity of your
allergies. Over time, as the doses of the shot get bigger, your body will build up an immunity to the allergens, ideally getting rid of them all together. After only about a year of getting the shots, my allergies KDYH VLJQLÂżFDQWO\ LPSURYHG , used to not want to go outside in the summer because of how bad I would feel in only a couple of minutes.

Why hire an auto broker? broker and did not buy. With the Broker we were in and out in about 30 minutes.

Hello again loyal Beaverton readers!
I
have received several emails asking why consumers would want to hire an Auto Broker. Every buyer should have a professional on their side
The concept behind hiring an auto broker is relatively simple: youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not a professional car buyer, so why go it alone against a professional car seller? :LWK WKH FRQIXVLRQ RI Âżnancing, fees, add-ons, taxes DQG WKH KXUULHG MDUJRQ ÂżOOHG nature of the dealership, it only makes sense to leave the bargaining to someone who wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be fazed by the wheeling and dealing.

1. Her Body is Changing (and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s weird for her too)
Hormone shifts and physical changes are the bane of adolescent existence. At some point, your daughter will get her period. If you didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t grow up around pads, tampons, and cramps, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s understandable that you may feel uncomfortable. For the sake of your daughter, try to come to terms with that beforehand.

s Fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day approaches, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only appropriate to acknowledge all the hardworking dads out there. We (moms, your kids, society) appreciate you. While itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no surprise that many dads-to-be feel anxious, there is a particular sense of worry around the idea of raising a teenaged daughter. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m here to tell you... thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no right answer. However, as a former teenaged daughter myself (albeit over a decade ago), Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to offer my humble advice to all the stellar dads out there.

$
This is the age where many women develop an eating disorder. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to tell your daughter sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s beautiful (because she is) but watch that her mental health is sound too. Make sure she knows you value her other attributes as well, like her determination, creativity, or athletic ability. 3. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re Input Matters to Her Future
No matter what your daughterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goals are, she canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get there without a solid education. As her father, you are a voice of reason and encouragement. While you shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect perfection, having high expectations and offering support can help your daughter accomplish her academic ambitions.
5. Show up for the Important Stuff
You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to attend EVERY event your daughter is a part of but if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s meaningful to her, try your best to make it. This could be a particular sporting event, special musical performance, or even prom. 6. Take an Interest in Her Interests
Pick a few things sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most interested in and look for commonality. You might end up introducing her to something special from your own teenage years.
4. She Internalizes How You Treat Other Women
Your daughter takes in how you treat other women. She should expect nothing less than respect from other men, based on your model. You may not be with your daughterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mother anymore. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s totally fine, as long as you still interact civilly.
