Remembering Harold’s special visit ■ by jake jarvi We were saddened to learn of the passing of North Shore resident and Hollywood icon Harold Ramis on Monday. Four years ago, the witty writer/director sat down to speak with our sister publication, Sheridan Road. As big fans of the films he’d directed — Groundhog Day, Caddyshack, Multiplicity, National Lampoon’s Vacation, Analyze This — and the films he wrote and starred in (Ghostbusters, Animal House, Meatballs, Stripes, and others), the crew was nervous as we waited to meet the man who’d made us laugh for so many years. He even seemed a little nervous himself when he walked in for the interview/photo shoot, but as he settled into a chair and into his natural rhythms, he set us all at ease. For more than an hour he spoke on topics from breaking into the movie business, the funny sides of traveling and having an MRI, and the state of comedy, and he offered an inside look at the process behind crafting a classic like Ghostbusters. He was approachable, quick-witted, and warm. It felt less like an interview and more like an informal chat with a hilarious pal. He was open about his successes, his perceived shortcomings, and his life on the North Shore. Having grown up in Chicago and first climbing the ranks of comedy through Second City, it seems natural that he’d return after leaving Los Angeles. He revealed that he and his wife chose to reside in Glencoe because of both the community and the perfect house they found. He made his office in Highland Park because when he first toured it, his film Multiplicity was listed on the marquee of the Highland Park Movie Theater across the street. So as the film industry says goodbye to a talented filmmaker who had a knack for combining his passion for philosophy with precision comedy, we at The North Shore Weekend say goodbye to a neighbor — and a great guy who really made us laugh. Visit SheridanRd.com to hear an extended version of our conversation with Harold Ramis. ■

Clean up movies for youngsters — and a nod to a comedy original
O
ne night during a recent family vacation in Florida, our children turned the channel to the Cartoon Network. Expecting to encounter some mindless fare such as SpongeBob SquarePants, instead a movie was playing called Firehouse Dog. All five of use watched it and — amazingly, given the age range from 6 to 50 — all really enjoyed it. In fact, the kids watched it again when the 2007 film came on the following night. Why were we engaged? For the kids, it offered a good vs. evil tale featuring heroes and danger — and a happy ending, thanks to the dog’s efforts. For me, it was entertaining — and the cleanest family movie I’d seen in many years. Too often, I’ve taken our children to a so-called kids’ movie — often animated — and been appalled by the characters’ bad language, crude bodily noises and other detritus that makes a parent squirm (of course, the 15 minutes of movie previews we sit through are even worse). I’m not saying the plots are weaker now compared to decades past or that everything should be sugarcoated — plenty of longago Disney movies were as dark as could be, and watching The Wizard of Oz has shaken generations of youngsters — but the bathroom humor and sexual references were never needed. Obviously, the mannerless movies pay — halfway through
2013, it was reported, Hollywood had put out all of one movie rated G. With the Academy Awards on tap this weekend, it seemed a good time to explore why more movies appropriate for the entire family aren’t in the theaters. Bill McLean talks with North Shore families about this topic in these pages. $ $ $ $ $ $ Speaking of movies, many are lamenting the death of North Shore resident Harold Ramis. Thru March 15th Though “Ghostbusters” and other well-known fare were mentioned prominently in his obituaries (and Lord knows they weren’t exactly appropriate for youngsters but great for adults), I’ll always recall chicago hinsdale lake forest winnetka his excellence as a writer for and actor in SCTV. 773 404 2020 630 655 0497 847 295 8370 847 441 0969 What’s that, you ask?

Finding appropriate movies for youngsters is tougher than ever
■ by bill mclean Carli Betman remembers a time when her favorite kid movies featured princesses, little animals, pristine dialogue and feel-good plots. Most were G-rated flicks. The Northbrook resident and Glenbrook North High School junior enjoyed “Despicable Me 2,” a PG-rated film that is up for a nomination in the animation category at the Academy Awards on March 2. “The characters in it were outgoing and friendly,” Betman says. “But characters also shot laser beams in scenes. “I could see parents getting a little nervous about letting their kids see a movie like that.” Penny Robbins, the director of Kinderhaven Preschool Academy in Lake Forest, wonders, “Is there any movie in theaters without a weapon in it or an inyour-face theme?” Such films are nearing Dodo-bird status, thanks mostly to an ogre. When “Shrek” hit the theaters in 2001, parents accompanied their kids and laughed with them during some scenes. In others — the innuendo-laced ones — they stifled laughs and squirmed a bit while their offspring stared at the screen stone-faced. “Shrek” was a monster hit all over the world. “[The movie] completely changed the animation field,” writes Scott Mendelson in a piece, “Disney’s ‘Frozen’ Proves Failure of PG Rating,” on forbes.com. "It's hard to find innocent G-rated movies to watch," says Sarah “[‘Shrek’] earned its PG for foul lan- Steiner, shown with husband Chris and their three boys Ollie, guage and low-key sexual innuendos, Caleb and Ethan. none of which stopped it from earning photography by joel lerner $484 million at the global box office.” With Oscars being handed out on Sunday, some North Shore parents and youngsters point out that few movies these days, animated or otherwise, are family-friendly, given their propensity for coarse language, drug references and other fare. Some studios prefer a PG rating for their animated films, fearing a goody-goody G rating wouldn’t appeal to teens accustomed to movies with an edge. Mendelson noted a G rating in the 1980s and 1990s was the “de-facto rating” for an animated picture. “Moviemakers try to make money, and we try to educate our kids,” says Lake Forest resident Brenda Marwede, a family counselor and mother of three teenagers. “Some of the movies that are getting made … they’re like junk food, all over the place and hard to resist for many. “Movies, it seems, make more money when they have a lot of shock value,” she adds. “Moviemakers then think they have to continue to boost the shock value the next time they make one. Viewers are more and more desensitized.” Samantha Stoddart’s favorite Disney movie of all-time is “Miracle,” the story of the gold-medal-winning USA men’s hockey team at the 1980 Winter Olympics. “The best movies are ones that make you feel something — I felt great and I felt inspired while watching that,” says Stoddart, a junior and standout gymnast at New Trier High School. “I watch Disney movies all the time, and I could quote so many lines from so many of them. You’re never too old for a good Disney movie in my mind. “Moviemakers,” she adds, “should be careful because you often live what you see and what you learn. I hope they get back to making more good wholesome movies.” Jon Salomon thinks the movie industry is a healthy escape for all kids, especially when it’s compared to some of the edgy, family-unfriendly stuff running on TV — even the network fare — these days. The Glenbrook South High School junior is a big fan of the penguins in the movie “Madagascar.” “What’s in 99 percent of the movies [rated PG and PG-13] is usually good,” he says. “At times there might be one or two lines with foul language. My parents were aware of that and their message to me was, ‘You can watch the movie but don’t say those [foul] words.’ They’re good parents.” TV shows like “Brady Bunch,” “Leave It to Beaver” and “Lassie” were made into movies. And reruns of the shows — practically every episode of all three presented a moral — will likely continue to air on TV as long as baby boomers breathe. “Kids don’t consider those exciting shows,” Kinderhaven’s Robbins says. “In the past, kids weren’t exposed to having images constantly coming at them like kids experience today. So much of what kids, especially tweens [ages 8-13], are watching today deals with backtalk or kids making fun of adults. “Kids are seeing too many examples of disrespect.” But Lake Forest resident Sarah Steiner, a mother of three young boys, sees hope between the movierelease dates. It’s a local school initiative rated R for … respect. “It recognizes character-building, not just achievement,” she says. “Achievement is a very good thing, but I’ve noticed people are becoming more aware of how essential character is.” ■

New arts academy in Deerfield features long pedigree
Samara Harand
photography by joel lerner ■ by gregg shapiro Samara Harand has theater in her blood. “My mother actually went into labor while watching ‘South Pacific’ on television, so I am truly a musical theater baby from birth,” Harand says. A director and choreographer of a multitude of musicals and revues at Harand Camp of the Theatre Arts in Wisconsin, Harand also has theater credentials at Boston University’s On Broadway, as well as Victorian Village Resort. The new Company Show director for Starland Kids in Deerfield, Harand’s recent credits include “Legally Blonde,” “West Side Story,” “Bye Bye Birdie,” “The Wizard of Oz,” as well as tributes to Bob Fosse and Jerome Robbins. Harand, who holds a master of fine arts in arts management from Brooklyn College, has worked both on Broadway and
off at venues such as Roundabout Theatre Company, The Producing Office, in addition to the Tony Awards. She is the founder and executive director of the new non-profit organization Harand Academy of the Arts (harandacademy.com) in Deerfield, Gregg Shapiro: Samara, I first met you when you were doing theater publicity. Can you please say something about what that experience was like for you? Samara Harand: Working as a theater publicist was a wonderful introduction to the Chicago theater community, and I am so thankful to Beth Silverman (of The Silverman Group) for hiring me right out of college. During that time I had the opportunity to work with amazing artists, writers, producers, and administrators. I learned so much about the business of theater and what it takes to succeed in this industry. People who have never worked in PR wrongly assume that anyone can do it. I really can’t think of a better training ground for arts managers. GS: How are you related to Sulie and Pearl Harand of the Harand Studios of the Theatre Arts? SH: While Harand Camp is one big extended family of Haranders I am part of the actual Harand family. Sulie Harand, who founded the original studios with her sister Pearl (and their husbands Byron and Sam) is my grandmother. GS: If you weren’t so steeped in the theater world, what other careers would you have considered for yourself? SH: I actually denied my roots for a long time and tried to go into anything but theater. While I loved performing throughout school, my original plan was to become a lawyer. I even took the LSATs; but when I choked on my best section, I took it as a sign that I needed to stop living in denial
and focus on what I love – which is the arts. GS: In 2013, you founded the Harand Academy of the Arts. Tell us about it. SH: Harand Academy is very much founded in the spirit of the original Harand Studios that were based in downtown Chicago in the 1950s. Our primary goal is to offer quality training in a positive, noncompetitive environment. Kids face enough challenges growing up, and theater should be a safe place to explore your creativity, build self-confidence and find your voice. We had wanted to bring back the studio for years, and the requests for year-round shows and workshops had been consistently building in the last year especially. That the stars aligned for us to be able to launch in the same year as the 60th anniversary of Harand Camp is very special. It really brings everything full circle to where it started. GS: How did you go about designing the curriculum? SH: We definitely took the input of Harand students (both past and present) and also thought about the types of classes and shows we would have wanted to take at that age. We want to give our students the tools to succeed not only as performers but also as people and we want them to be challenged and have fun. That’s definitely the most important part! GS: Did you have one or two theater educators who had a substantial impact on you? SH: This should go without saying, but Sulie and Pearl Harand most definitely had the largest impact on my life as an artist and theater educator. I think their philosophy of “No Man is an Island” is something that will always stay with me in every aspect of my life. Plus, for two women to do what they did - at a time when women were not supposed to be the breadwinners - is absolutely inspiring. Also, during my time at graduate school in
New York I had the opportunity to work with so many arts professionals on Broadway and in the non-profit arena, but Harold Wolpert (the managing director of Roundabout Theatre Company) stands out in my mind. He always forced me to think strategically and showed me what it takes to be the leader of an arts institution. While I always knew I would come back to Chicago (the greatest theater community in the world!) I wouldn’t trade my time in New York for anything. GS: What can you tell me about Starland in Deerfield? SH: I love Starland, and the creative outlet and training they provide for North Shore children and families is wonderful. I was originally hired by Starland owner Adam More to direct the fall company musical “The Wizard of Oz,” and our professional relationship just grew from there. The second I walked into the beautiful arts facility this past August I was struck by the terrific, positive energy of the staff and students. The philosophy and the overall vibe felt very similar to Harand. So later, when I discovered that there was space (and time) available to potentially offer classes and shows for older students…it just seemed like kismet. GS: Harand Camp, the Studios’ overnight summer theater camp in Wisconsin, is entering its 60th anniversary season. Are there plans to mark the occasion in a special way? SH: We are holding a big 60th Anniversary Gala at the Millennium Knickerbocker Hotel in downtown Chicago on Saturday evening, March 8. Haranders from all eras are expected to attend. It’s going to be a very special night with amazing food, entertainment, and memories. All proceeds from the event will benefit our other non-profit – the Harand Camp Scholarship Fund – which helps send children to camp who otherwise wouldn’t be able to afford the experience. ■

Small steps on North Shore inspire big results in Haiti ■ by jenna schubert As a mother, nurse practitioner, and educator, Glenview resident Susan Walsh has a discernable gift for teaching and nurturing. In 2007, that gift led her to start Little by Little, which provides medical aid and health education to women and children in Haiti. “I think everybody wants to do something to make a difference in this world, but many people don’t know how to hone in on their attribute or gift,” Walsh says. “I love to be a conduit for that – to help people harness their gifts and put them into action. That’s the biggest reason why I started this whole mission.” The organization’s name comes from the Haitian proverb, “Little by little, the bird built its nest.” The name also refers to the small steps the non-profit’s volunteers take toward the overall goal of improving health in Haiti, by partnering with the Haitian people. Medical challenges are the organization’s biggest focus. Because farming in Haiti is dismal, many of the nation’s inhabitants suffer from malnourishment, which is especially harmful to children and pregnant women. “When a woman or child is suffering from malnutrition, they are more susceptible to other diseases, and it becomes a domino effect,” Walsh says. Illnesses triggered or worsened by malnutrition include worms, anemia, infant phenomena, and other infectious diseases. Because immunizations are not well organized in Haiti, natives can also suffer and die from conditions like tetanus. To help remedy these medical issues, Walsh and her
volunteers provide primary medical care and basic health education — to show the inhabitants how they can continue a healthy lifestyle. “I think it’s really important when you’re doing humanitarian aid that you aren’t just going in and doing things for the people, but that you’re helping the people build their capacity to do things for themselves,” Walsh says. Little by Little organizes four trips per year to Haiti. Though the present focus is on one clinic in Gramothe, Haiti, Walsh hopes the mission will eventually spread to other areas of the country — especially as the nation continues to recover from the 2010 earthquake. Walsh’s book, “Walking in Broken Shoes,” chronicles the effects of the earthquake that she and her volunteers experienced when they visited the country shortly after the disaster. Though Haiti has made progress in rebuilding the nation since, Walsh acknowledges that there is still much to be done. On Feb. 28, Walsh was honored at a luncheon hosted by Concern Worldwide in Chicago, where she received the organization’s 2014 Women of Concern Humanitarian Award for her work with Little by Little. Walsh — who says she felt honored to be nominated for such an award — is excited to share her passion for helping the Haitian people with everyone. “I would love to inspire others to look at their own gifts,” Walsh says. “Everybody has a gift, and if they put it into action, then little by little those actions can turn into something big.” For more information on Little by Little, visit littlebylittlehaiti.org. ■

Novelist’s books focus on positive — and resonate with teens
Simone Elkeles
photography by paul barnett ■ by jenna schubert For many authors, a love of reading is something that is revealed during childhood. But for Simone Elkeles, New York Times best-selling author of the “Perfect Chemistry” series and other teenage romance novels, an interest in reading did not develop until much later in life. Born in Chicago, Elkeles spent her early years in Glenview and then Deerfield. As a student at Deerfield High School, she never enjoyed reading — mainly because
the assigned books did not spark her interests. For her, in high school (‘I’m a loser,’ ‘No one understands me,’ and school was less about the homework and more about the ‘I get made fun of’),” Elkeles says. “Even though everyone has issues, I love writing teen books that focus on the fun relationships she built with her friends. “My favorite class was my lunch period,” she says. “But to parts of being in high school.” She also claims that her goal is simply to entertain and be honest, my sociology and psychology classes at Deerfield really intrigued me; I liked to study how people think and to be authentic with her writing, rather than to instruct or how they interact in social situations. And I think that to judge teenagers for their decisions. Her novel “Perfect my high school helped me create a love of understanding Chemistry,” for instance, follows the life of a teenage boy who finds the courage to leave a gang. people.” Elkeles continued to pursue her interests in college, grad“The fan mail I get from teens makes my life.

NEWS DIGEST REVIEW
PREVIEW
Deerfield
Glenview
Keeley Kossof, creator of a line of odorneutralizing hair fragrances, has made the cover of a national beauty industry trade magazine. Kossof’s Deerfield-based Mane Intentions was chosen as the top new product line of 2013 by Beauty Store Business magazine. Mane Intentions’ scientific formula works to neutralize odor while infusing a fresh scent into the hair. “The first of its kind amidst a growing category of hair fragrances, Mane Intentions stands alone,” said Marc Birenbaum executive editor of Beauty Store Business. “Instead of masking hair odors, it actually absorbs and eliminates them.” A photo of Kossof graces the cover of the Beauty Store Business’ February issue. The four-page editorial piece highlights the evolution of Kossof’s early career as a hair stylist and make-up artist into entrepreneur following complications from diabetes and pregnancy, which left her visually impaired. As her cover story relates, the idea behind Mane Intentions came to her after a smoky night out and her blowout didn’t mix. “I initially tried spraying perfume on my hair, but that didn’t work,” explained Kossof. “Perfume doesn’t have the neutralizing agents necessary, so my idea for Mane Intentions was born.”
A day of health and wellness is being offered Saturday at Glenview New Church. The church’s Women’s Outreach Group will give residents the opportunity to connect mind, body and spirit with offerings from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Program topics range from Chinese medicine and aging to journaling sessions. “We’re very excited to be offering this allday program to our community,” said Lisa Synnestvedt, a member of the event’s planning committee. A variety of vendors also will be on hand, including Faces, a skin care salon; and The Block Center for Integrative Cancer Treatment. Tickets for the all-day workshop, including lunch, are $30 in advance and $35 at the door. The event will have a non-denominational focus on spirituality and is open to women of all faiths. Demonstrations and experiential exercises will include acupuncture, Nia dance, guided meditation, creative journaling and weight training. The church is located at 74 Park Drive.
Northbrook The North Suburban YMCA will offer a Family Fun Day Open House on Sunday. A number of free activities will be offered from 2-4 p.m., including yoga, TRX

suspension training and dodge ball. Ribboncutting ceremonies will be held for the Y’s new Youth and Family Wellness Center and a new climbing wall in the X-Zone interactive play area. The Youth and Family Wellness Center provides space for fitness programs geared toward young people and families, including weekly Family Fitness Nights, yoga classes and programs for individuals with special needs. The ribbon-cutting ceremony at 2 p.m. will honor the UPS Foundation and the Buehler Family Foundation, which provided funding for the center’s equipment and construction. The other new addition, a transverse climbing wall in the X-Zone area, stretches 28 feet in length with 75 climbing holds of various sizes and shapes. The ribboncutting for the climbing wall is scheduled for 3 p.m., giving special recognition to the Northbrook Civic Foundation which provided funding for the wall. The North Suburban Y is located at 2705 Techny Road. All children must be accompanied by an adult at the Open House. For information about programs at the Y, visit www.nsymca.org.

actors in grades 6-10 taking on the roles of Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, Jack from Jack and the Beanstalk and others in a musical comedy. Performances will be at 12:30 and 4 p.m. March 8-9 and 15-16 at the Northbrook Theatre, 3323 Walters Ave. The Theater Company is part of the Northbrook Park District. “It’s a great show that combines the fairy tales and characters that everyone loves and puts a twist on them,” said Erin McDonald, assistant manager of performing arts with the Park District. “A big part of the rehearsal process is finding out what works and what doesn’t. “We tell the kids that they are in charge of their characters. How often do they get that opportunity? I think it’s important to have a good amount of silliness in rehearsals; we want kids to step outside their comfort zones in a safe, fun and supportive environment. When I see the kids each week, I can tell they have worked on their roles outside of rehearsal, because they have improved.” Four casts were chosen with 70 students from Northbrook, Wilmette, Glenview, Buffalo Grove, Highland Park, Deerfield and surrounding areas. The running time is about 70 minutes, and the suggested age range is 6 and up. Tickets ($10-12) are available at the Box Office in the Leisure Center, online at nbparks. org, and by phone at (847) 291-2367. ■

to reconfigure the house for his rehabilitation, and no one understood her challenges in doing so. Now a Tillman scholarship recipient, she is aiming to earn an architectural design degree to help those military spouses in a similar predicament. Another is Corporal Dave Warden. In Afghanistan, he survived a series of explosions but suffered a broken neck, destroyed disks in his back and three concussions. W it h the Tillman Foundation scholarship, the 23-year-old is looking to earn a master’s degree in accounting before pursuing a career in federal law enforcement. When Tillman was killed at age 27, donations started pouring in from around the world to his widow. Grieving and with little knowledge about non-profits, she didn’t know what to do with the money. After founding the Pat Tillman Foundation, the eventual focus wasn’t finalized until four years later, when military scholarships (which cover tuition, fees, housing, transportation and childcare) became the key driver. The foundation (www.pattillmanfoundation.org) receives more than 5,000 scholarship applicants a year. Upon meeting more and more military members and spouses, Tillman heard many stories about loss and struggle. She realized they, just like her, didn’t have a place to turn when Marie Tillman the worst happened. So she wrote “The Letter: My Journey
A decade ago, the story of Pat Tillman’s life and death flooded the nation’s airwaves. The Arizona Cardinals’ star safety chose to forgo his lucrative NFL career to serve in Iraq and in Afghanistan. In 2004 the U.S. Army Ranger — perhaps the best-known soldier in the war on terror — was killed by the enemy as he charged up a hill, it was believed, and posthumously awarded the Silver Star. Soon, it was revealed he was actually gunned down by that greatest of oxymorons, friendly fire. Amid all of this, his widow — and high school sweetheart — faced no choice but to endure. In fact, she had uncovered a letter from him the day she found out he had died, charging her to make sure to live if he were gone. Today, Marie Tillman is the president of the Pat Tillman Foundation, which gives about 60 scholarships a year to military veterans, active service members and spouses to

And the Northfield resident was honored with the 2014 Chicago Women of Concern Leadership Award on Friday (Feb. 28) at the Hyatt Regency Chicago. “We’ve been grateful that Pat’s story continues to resonate with people,” says Tillman, whose biggest foundation fund-raiser — a 4.2-mile run in Tempe, Ariz. — is so popular that it is capped at 30,000 competitors. More than $4 million in scholarships have been distributed since 2008. At an annual gathering in Chicago, Tillman meets the recipients. “Every scholar has an amazing story,” says the 30-something California native. “I have a special place in my heart for the spouses. So many of the women have gone through difficult experiences with their husbands overseas.” She pointed to one in particular, whose husband returned to the United States badly injured from war.

War widow winning the battle to aid soldiers and spouses Through Love, Loss & Life” — published by Grand Central Press in 2012 — to help those in need. “In my grief (over Pat’s death), I shut out even my close family and friends,” she writes in the preface. “Reading other people’s accounts of loss made me feel less alone, more connected. “So though the person I was in 2004 would never believe she’d write a book, that’s exactly who I’m writing for. I’m writing so that someone may open this up in the privacy of his or her room, start to read, and feel a little more connected.” With her new husband Joe Shenton, Marie now enjoys three children of his plus two of their own, including a twomonth-old daughter. They especially like a Sunday breakfast at Café Buongiorno on Chestnut Street in Winnetka (“it’s a great family place”), where they find that rare table for seven. “Many years I wondered how I would put all the parts of my life together. To lose someone, it’s a difficult journey,” she says. “I’ve been fortunate to have the work that I do and to find a husband who celebrates all of that. I can move forward and honor the past.” What would Pat say about her work? “It’s something I think about,” she says. “I would hope he would be proud of the organization. He went out of his way to help other people.” ■

love & marriage
■ by joanna brown It’s Oscar season, which means that couples across the North Shore are flocking to movie theaters to see the nine films that have been nominated for Best Picture. Films that we had neither time for nor interest in over the previous 10 months suddenly become priority one for Date Night. (For the record, you did not see me among the crowds last weekend. I maintained a borderline unhealthy obsession with the Olympic skiing events.) The endeavor is expensive, time-consuming and exhausting. On the other hand, you get 18 hours of great entertainment and the brain stimulation that I missed during my last movie experience: a matinee of The Nut Job, the animated adventures of urban squirrels. The experts say that I also missed out on eight more opportunities to improve my marriage (I did see one of the Best Picture nominees back in December, before the nominations were announced). A study from the University of Rochester found that watching movies that examine the complexities of marriage and discussing the issues as a couple can be just as effective as traditional marriage counseling at curbing divorce rates. For the study, 174 couples were divided into three groups to experience various marriage counseling methods. Couples in the movie group received a list of film titles and instructions to watch one film weekly. They were to then talk
about the marital issues presented in the film and relate them back to their own relationship. The movie method cut the divorce rate of newlywed couples from 24 percent to 11 percent at the three-year mark. This was the same success rate as supervised therapy sessions conducted by trained counselors. The list of 21 movies used in the study is interesting, to say the least: • Dying Young, in which a caregiver falls in love with her terminal patient; they navigate a new relationship that they know can not last. • Indecent Proposal, the 1993 story of a married woman who agrees to have sex with another man for $1 million (to put the discussion in context, that would be $1.6 million in 2014 dollars). • Fools Rush In, in which an unplanned pregnancy forces a marriage between two people of different cultures. • Days of Wine and Roses, a 1962 film about an alcoholic who marries a young woman who he turns into an alcoholic so that they can share his experience. • Adam’s Rib, a 1949 film about lawyers who are spouses arguing opposing sides of a lawsuit involving a woman who shot her husband. Discussion questions asked participants to compare the problems faced in the movie to challenges they faced in their relationship; if the couple in the film had a strong friendship to support each in tough times; and whether the

Can watching movies together be as effective as marriage counseling?
movie couple did anything affectionate and considerate to each other. Further, study participants considered if the movie partners had expectations of their relationship, and how each partner’s expectations differed. That’s all well and good, but isn’t there marital value in just seeing a movie together – an average date night? Does it require homework to make it a worthwhile experience? I remember seeing the 2010 film Date Night, in which Steve Carell and Tina Fey decide their boring marriage needs a night of romance. Instead, a classic case of mistaken identity gives them a much wilder night than they expected. I don’t know that my husband and I had a deep discussion on the ride home from the theater (I don’t think the movie won much more than a Teen Choice Award), but we got out of the house, we laughed together, and we saw on the big screen that boring isn’t so bad. Tell me about your favorite – and seemingly boring – date nights. Send an email to Joanna@northshoreweekend.com ■
Let’s Talk Real Estate by Jean Wright, President/Broker Owner Crs, GrI
DOn’t Let these three FaCts sLIP thrOuGh the CraCks! Buying a new home often involves facing a torrent of new information, from convoluted rates and percentages, to forewarnings, suggestions, tips, advisements, and downright imploration. Unfortunately, few home buyers ever feel truly prepared to make the big decision, and so it becomes incredibly important to find a broker or agent you can truly trust while conducting as much research as possible on your own. All too often, despite this safety net of expert advice and self-directed study, some things still go unnoticed. Here is a brief list of three facts that routinely go unmentioned, undiscovered, and undisclosed. Knowledge is Power Fact #1: Don’t count yourself out until you gather all the information. While the traditional notion behind previous foreclosure would contend that you are financially sunk and therefore ineligible from qualifying for a loan to become a home-owner, in actuality this circumstance is less dire than typically assumed. While it is true that foreclosure remains on your credit rating for up to seven years, large scale governmentbacked lenders such as Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae have begun imposing just three year penalties for foreclosure. Though you may be required to pay a higher down payment or pay slightly higher interest rates, you aren’t disqualified from the dream of home ownership as easily as you may assume. Fact #2: Be sure to check into the housing codes and regulations pertaining to properties you are interested in. Prospective buyers would do well to work diligently to ensure that recent renovations, additions, and improvements were conducted in conjunction with guidelines set by now-starving city planning departments. If you purchase a home with violations, you may be saddled with the responsibility of bringing them to code. Fact #3: Hire your own people. It is important not to expose yourself to liability by accepting the seller’s offer to use their agent, appraiser, or inspector. These professionals owe an allegiance to the person paying for their service, so it’s best to hire your own team of licensed home specialists.

matter of taste
Longtime chef sticks to simplicity and quality ■ by katie rose mceneely
Cesar Gutierrez is the executive chef at Pinstripes in Northbrook. How did you start cooking? My mom was a chef and when I was six years old, she opened a restaurant. I started cooking in my mom’s restaurant but didn’t think of it as a career — as things progressed, I ended up working as a dishwasher and worked my way up as prep cook as I tried to figure out what I wanted to do. I ended up loving the kitchen and worked my way up to an executive chef at Lettuce Entertain You. I really took on my career and became a corporate trainer and eventually ran a restaurant in Chicagoland. Years cooking? A little bit over 20 years. Best recipe tweak? I’ve learned it’s more about simplicity and quality of ingredients. So, if a recipe has too many ingredients, the first thing I think about is what’s really essential.
“I get behind the line and make something — she’s very loyal, to this day. It makes me happy that she keeps coming back.” | Cesar Gutierrez

Recipe: Housemade Linguini
photography by joel lerner skin tightening wrinkle reduction sun damage reversal Carbonara skin texture rejuvenation
In a sauté pan add 2 tablespoons bacon fat, 1 tablespoon minced garlic and 2 pinches each of salt and pepper. Sauté until golden brown, do not burn. Deglaze pan with ½ cup white wine and reduce liquid by half. Add 5 cups heavy cream, ½ cup parmesan cheese and ¼ cup peas to the sauté pan and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, drop 3 pounds linguine into a pot of boiling water and cook until al dente. Drain well. Add drained pasta into the sauce and toss to incorporate and coat the noodles. Remove sauce and noodles from heat and add 4 egg yolks. Toss to incorporate into the sauce. Using tongs, swirl the pasta onto the plate to give the noodles height. Sprinkle ¼ cup chopped bacon around the noodles. In a small bowl, toss 1 ounce snow peas, 1 ounce sundried tomato, 1 ounce shaved Parmesan cheese, 1 tablespoon red wine vinaigrette and 2 pinches Kosher salt together. Place vegetable mixture on top of pasta; serves six.
Time for a renovation? No, not the house.

Signature dish? I have many; one of my favorite dishes that I came up with is our Ahi Tuna Gnocchi. All of our chefs come up with different dishes, but I oversee the locations, so I’ll get one or two in there. Favorite cuisine to make? What I’m most comfortable with is Italian. My favorite is more or less comfort food. I don’t know if “comfort food” has a style. What do you like to eat at home? Comfort, but also healthy — I think healthy foods like a piece of fish over a steak. Worthwhile gadget? A ruler. It allows me to keep consistency with cuts. Favorite cookbook? The most recent cookbook I read was “Heat” about Mario Batali. It’s really fun. Favorite fruit or vegetable? Avocado. My favorite vegetable is, I think, Brussels sprouts. Funniest or most memorable kitchen incident? There’s so many memorable moments. It didn’t happen at Pinstripes — but a customer came in to the restaurant and she asked the server, “Is your chef creative?” It was a Saturday night, super busy. I went to the table and the lady was there with her boyfriend. She was also a vegetarian, and I was like, “Okay, you’re in a steak house, you’re a vegetarian, and you’re wondering if I’m creative.” So I made her something. That was four or five years ago — to this day, that customer calls me and finds out where I’m working and comes to the restaurant that I’m at. I get behind the line and make something — she’s very loyal, to this day. It makes me happy that she keeps coming back. Pinstripes is located at 1150 Willow Road in Northbrook.

REAL ESTATE | 23 Mr. Marley's House for sale: A piece of Hollywood history ■ by donald liebenson
A house in Winnetka made famous by the movie “Home Alone” now includes a putting green.
photography courtesy of coldwell banker
Fans of John Hughes’ 1990 family classic “Home Alone” who missed out on purchasing “the McCallister home” when it sold in 2012 have another opportunity to own a piece of movie history. The neighboring property, on which sits the so-called Old Man Marley house — whose owner initially gave McCauley Culkin’s young Kevin such a fright — is on the market for $3.1 million. Too bad homes can’t be nominated for Academy Awards for acting, because the three-story, almost 6,900-square-foot house at 681 Lincoln Ave. in Winnetka is nothing like the brooding and sinister abode it was portrayed as onscreen. Owners Dick and Penny Green, who have lived in the house since June 2003, were at cross-purposes when each saw it for the first time. For Dick, it was love at first sight when he saw the spacious backyard that includes a swimming pool and a putting green that he later installed. For Penny, the situation has been like one of those romantic comedies where skepticism blossoms into true love. “I didn’t want anything to do with the house,” she laughs. “I knew it was going to be a big project.” Indeed, she figures there is not a single room that hasn’t been touched in some way. But the home’s location, the welcoming and friendly neighbors, and raising a family on the quintessential small-town tree-lined street, won her heart. “The fact that John Hughes chose this street for ‘Home Alone’ reflects that it’s a great (area),” Dick observes. “Home Alone” was a surprise hit upon its release. For a time it was the biggest-grossing comedy of all time. It is now a holiday perennial on television. “I took a cab from the airport once,” Dick recalls. “The driver had just moved here a month ago from
Kazakhastan. He pulled up to the house, (looked next door) and said, ‘Is that the ‘Home Alone’ house?’ It was 10:30 at night. He started taking pictures and texting friends back home.” More impressive than the home’s cinematic legacy, though, is its architectural pedigree. Benjamin Marshall designed it, gables and all. His credits are stellar, too. Among his best-known buildings include the Drake and Edgewater Beach hotels in Chicago But there is a certain cachet to living in a home used in a popular film and the interest in this particular chapter of this century-old home’s story has generated the most media interest, said realtor Linda Martin of Coldwell Banker. The home will be featured on an upcoming episode of “Open House,” broadcast nationwide on NBC. Martin, who also lives in the neighborhood, and whose home can also be glimpsed in the film, recalled fondly, “(The filming) brought the community together. Everybody would gather at night and we would drink hot cocoa (and watch). It looked like the movie would be amusing and we knew John Hughes was good, but no one ever dreamed it would be this successful.” ■

26 | sports Emmerich grabs gold at state wrestling ■ by kevin reiterman
sports@northshoreweekend.com Teammates have been calling him a mythical movie figure all season: “Avatar.” Now, they can call him a historical figure. Colton Emmerich became the first Deerfield High School wrestler to win a state title in 50 years. The impressively built Emmerich claimed the 182-pound championship on Feb. 22 in Champaign. He defeated Dundee-Crown’s Christian Brunner 5-3 in the title bout to cap a 47-1 record. Emmerich is Deerfield’s modern-day Ted Parker, who claimed the 120-pound championship during the 1963-64 season. A year earlier, Parker took first at 112. “Colton figured it all out this season,” said Deerfield head coach Marc Pechter, who also celebrated a birthday on Feb. 22. “As the season went along, we saw what he was capable of. We thought he might run into a bump along the way. But that never really happened.” Emmerich’s lone setback came on Jan. 11 when he dropped an 11-9 decision to a Crystal
Lake South wrestler. Emmerich always was in the conversation as a possible state champ. Heading into the postseason, he was ranked behind Marist’s Alex Benoit (40-3). But the two never met in Champaign. Benoit was upset by Brunner (43-5) in the semifinal round in an overtime tiebreaker. “All the hours in the gym and all of the hard work paid off,” said Emmerich, who is being recruited by Big Ten schools. “Winning state is the best feeling in the world.” Perhaps, the Warriors won’t wait another 50 years to have their next state champ. Sophomore Andrew Mehrholz earned the third-place medal at 120 pounds. His lone setback, a 5-4 decision, came against the eventual state champ — Thornwood’s Kris Williams — in the quarterfinals. Mehrholz wound up in the 50-win club. He won five matches at state, including a 13-5 major decision over Oak Park-River Forest’s Richard Townsell in the third-place match, to finish 51-5 overall. “He arguably wrestled in the best weight class in the state,” said Pechter. ■

sports@northshoreweekend.com When Deerfield High School sophomore Ryan Smith returns to the state swimming meet at Evanston this weekend, he’ll know what to expect. And that’s good since he’ll have a little more to do there this year. Smith not only qualified for state again in the 100-yard backstroke by placing fifth in 53.59 seconds at the Glenbrook North Sectional on Feb. 22, but he also advanced by placing fifth in the 100 butterfly in a school record 52.33. The state-qualifying times in those events were 54.04 and 52.78. Deerfield senior Ryan Church (465.05 points) and junior Sean Scarry (463.75) also earned return trips to state in diving by placing first and second. “Last year I was really nervous coming in (to sectionals),” Smith said. “And this year, coming in being a state qualifier last year, really boosted my confidence and made me
think that, ‘Yeah, I can do it.’ I was just really excited for today to try to make it to state in both events.” What Smith did was drop huge time again at sectionals. He cut 3.63 seconds off his season-best time in the backstroke while winning the fourth of five heats and 2.75 seconds in the butterfly. Last year, he trimmed nearly five seconds to qualify in the backstroke. “He likes big meets. He gets up for it,” Deerfield coach John Sullivan said. “It’s just the way Ryan works, so hard, that he’s swimming a lot of meets very tired and when we get rest and let those muscles recover (for sectionals), he goes a great job.” Smith broke the school butterfly record of 52.87, which was set in 1995. “I’m happy to have my family’s name up on the (record) board for the next few years,” Smith said. “I know my dad and my grandpa are going to be happy, too.” Smith figures to benefit from last year’s eye-opening state experience after placing 44th in the backstroke in 55.18.
“I do think having gone to state last year will help me this year,” Smith said. “Last year, I had everyone telling me it’s the best meet and it’s insane. They said I should take it all in. “But, when I got there, it was more than I expected — all the people, so many fast swims. It was breathtaking, and I just got caught up in the moment and I didn’t really care how fast I swam. I don’t even remember what I went. I think of it as a learning experience. And so now this year I’m actually going to try to move up in the places, just keep building on my career.” Starry and Church — who placed fourth and 28th at state, respectively, last year — both figure to battle for top 12 spots at state. “The divers did outstanding (at sectionals),” Sullivan said. “Last year, if Ryan doesn’t touch the board on one dive, he’d have been top 12. He put up some dives today that were 8s and 9s, which is unbelievable. I haven’t seen 9s in I don’t know how long. Sean’s a battler. He’ll do a great job. I’m excited for both those guys.” ■

With Kevin Reiterman & Bill McLean
Flipside
Gymnastics Glenbrook North: Carli Betman’s plan was to survive one vault and then head to a Turnabout Dance. Gymnasts are allowed to execute two vaults at meets. But Betman, a junior, figured executing another vault would risk additional damage to her injured ankles at the state meet at Palatine High School on Feb. 22. The Spartan altered her plan slightly. She vaulted twice. “I told myself [after one vault], ‘Why not do another? It’s the state meet,’ ” Betman said after placing ninth in the event with a 9.45. Fortunately for her — and her Turnabout date — vault was the first event at the finals session. Betman made it to the dance, albeit a little late. Betman finished 13th on vault (9.525) at state last year. Only one other gymnast from the Central Suburban League, New Trier junior Sam Stoddart, advanced to the event finals at state last weekend. Stoddart took seventh on bars (9.375).
Glenbrook South: Titans freshman Hannah Hartley tied for 12th place on vault (9.475) and placed 13th on beam (9.2) at the state meet on Feb 21. She finished 20th in the all-around (36.25).
At the Shoot-Around
Boys Basketball Deerfield: The Warriors locked up first place in the CSL North on Feb. 21, when they defeated Maine East 48-36 on their home court. Deerfield, which was scheduled to play Maine South in the CSL Championship on Feb. 26, improved to 9-1 in the league play and 17-7 overall. Senior Jack Gurvey led the team with 11 points. Eric Porter, Michael Alfieri and Stefanos Fasianos finished with eight points apiece. Deerfield, seeded No. 8, is set to begin Class 4A regional action on March 4 at McHenry. The Warriors will face on No. 9 seed Warren at 8 p.m. No. 1 Stevenson will play either Grant or McHenry in the first game. Meanwhile, Glenbrook South and Glenbrook North will compete in the Maine South Sectional. GBN, seeded No. 13, opens against Roosevelt on March 3 (6 p.m.) at the New Trier Regional. No. 5 GBS will play either Lane or Amundsen on March 4 at 8 p.m. Girls Basketball Loyola Academy: Mary Kate Herion should have looked drained and exceedingly relieved after a Class 4A playoff game. The Loyola Academy senior guard/forward was neither, despite having played the bulk of a 55-43 doubleovertime defeat of Glenbrook South for the Niles West Regional championship on Feb. 20. “I kind of like close games,” the 5-foot-9 Herion admitted. The game was tied after the second, third and fourth quarters and after the first four-minute OT session, before the Ramblers (21-9) used a 8-0 run in the second OT to eliminate a resolute squad of Titans (13-15). Herion and classmate Maggie Nick, a 5-9 guard, put on quite a spectacle offensively, accounting for all of LA’s scoring for nearly three quarters. Nick (24 points, 6 boards, 5 steals) poured in 18 of the Ramblers’ first 29 points, and Herion (23 points, 7-for-15 from three-point land) netted the other 11. A bucket by sophomore forward Liz Satter (8 rebounds) at 1:23 of the third frame broke up the Nick-Herion Show. Herion set a resounding tone in the second OT with back-to-back treys in the first 1:23. Nick tallied six points in the final 2:11. The Ramblers (21-10) saw their season come to close on Feb. 24 in the semifinal round of the Maine East Sectional, when they dropped a 42-35 decision to Evanston. Herion drilled four three-pointers and finished with 14 points. Nick had eight points and nine rebounds.

Fun in the ol’ 500 free GBS’s Iida, Benson enjoy the ‘chase’ at sectional meet ■ by bill mclean
sports@northshoreweekend.com Ask most 500-yard freestyle swimmers about what’s fun about the grueling race and you’re likely to get one of two responses: “Not much.” A quizzical look. But Glenbrook South High School teammates Sam Iida and Kevin Benson — seeded 1-2 in the event — sought to have a blast throughout the distance race at the Glenbrook North Sectional on Feb. 22. “Our thinking was, ‘Just have fun and chase each other,’ ” Iida, a freshman, said after touching first in 4:38.8, ahead of New Trier sophomore Max Robertson (4:39.59) and Benson (third-place and state-qualifying 4:39.78). Iida’s time ranks fifth among state qualifiers in the event; Benson, a senior, clocked the eighth-fastest time in the state last weekend. “Awesome … Sam was awesome,” said Titans assistant coach Dave Lieberman, who filled in for head coach Keith MacDonald (eye surgery). “He was smooth and he got stronger as the race progressed. “I knew he’d do well in it after his 200 IM [runner-up and state-qualifying time of 1:54.7], when he told me he was feeling good.” Iida likes the first 100 yards of the 500 free, a stretch in which he lets his energy dictate matters. After about 300 yards of the race, Iida’s body from the neck down begins to rebel — and, in a way, speaks a fierce language.

“At that point it’s pretty painful and I remind myself, ‘I trained hard for this. Why not keep going hard, why not give it my all?’ ” said Iida, whose father, Steve, is the head coach of the Glenview Titan Aquatic Club. Iida also qualified for state as a member of the runner-up 200 medley relay (1:36.68;

with junior Jon Salomon, sophomore Sam Salganik and senior Jake Nelson). Salomon surfaced as a three-time winner, topping the 50 free (21.04) and 100 free (46.48) fields and swimming the second leg of the victorious 200 free relay (1:26.7; with Salganik, Nelson and senior Seamus
Heneghan). Only two other state qualifiers swam faster than Salomon did in the 100 free at sectionals last weekend. He ranks fourth among state qualifiers in the 50 free. South’s Titans collected 12 state berths in all and finished second (226) behind New Trier (252) at the highly competitive 13-team sectional. Nelson also advanced to state in the 100 backstroke (2nd, 52.68) and Benson extended his season in the 200 free (3rd, 1:43.28) and 400 free relay (runner-up 3:10.66; with Nelson, Salganik and Heneghan; the time was swift enough for a sixth seed). Salganik took third in the 100 butterfly in a state-qualifying 52.31, and Titans junior Aaron Ach became a three-time state qualifier in diving when he placed fourth (446.35 points). “What do I like about Aaron?” Titans diving coach Laura Duffy said. “What’s not to like? He’s very, very powerful and he’s really committed. Easy to coach, too.” Notable: MacDonald underwent surgery for a detached retina on Feb. 20 and will likely have to stay home during the state meet. “He’s doing fine,” Lieberman said. “But recovery from that kind of surgery is two weeks minimum.” … Heneghan medaled in the 50 free (6th place, 22.21) but did not qualify for state. … Titans sophomore Tommy Hagerty missed qualifying for state in the 200 free by an agonizing fourtenths of a second, clocking a seventh-place 1:45.52. He had entered the sectional with a seed time of 1:46.01. ■
Forward thinking
Playing in the paint a good fit for Glenbrook South’s Oldshue ■ by bill mclean
sports@northshoreweekend.com An Oldshue has gotten quite good at a relatively new position in basketball. Glenbrook South High School junior forward Ashley Oldshue — formerly a guard — looked very comfortable in and around the paint in the Class 4A Niles West Regional championship game against Loyola Academy on Feb. 20. Now a 6-foot-2 Titan, Oldshue performed backcourt duties before shifting to frontcourt responsibilities last winter. “She has developed several nice post moves,” Glenbrook South coach Steve Weissenstein said. None stood out more than the one Oldshue performed late in the fourth quarter of the Titans’ 55-43 double-overtime loss to the Ramblers (21-9). With her team trailing 39-37, the right-hander received an entry pass, took a quick step across the midsection of the lane and banked home a left-handed, fade-away baby hook. The unguardable clutch shot — with 24 ticks left in regulation — forced overtime. “My teammates did a great job getting me the ball,” said Oldshue, a club player for Midwest Elite in the offseason. “Last year was a transition year for me [position-wise]. I do want to get better as an inside player, but shooting is just as important. I’ll also work hard on my shooting in the offseason.” Oldshue finished with team highs of 18

photography by joel lerner points and nine rebounds as sixth-seeded GBS (13-15) looked nothing like a sub-.500 team and nearly ended third-seeded Loyola’s season. “Their post players did a great job,”
Ramblers coach Jeremy Schoenecker said, alluding to Oldshue and 6-0 senior forward Cassandra Palmer (8 points, 4 rebounds). “A lot of their players operate so well in small spaces.”
Loyola relied on seniors Maggie Nick (24 points, 6 rebounds, 5 steals) and Mary Kate Herion (23 points, 7 treys) for most of the night. A Rambler other than those two didn’t score until the 1:23 mark of the third quarter. LA opened a 22-13 advantage on a Nick three-pointer at 3:02 of the second quarter. But the Titans ended the frame on an 8-0 run, with freshman guard Carie Weinman (8 points, game-high 6 steals) contributing a steal-and-basket and a three-pointer. “We knew we couldn’t take them lightly,” Herion said. “They beat [top-seeded] New Trier [late in the regular season]. They gave a great effort.” The teams were tied 31-31 after three periods, and each club managed only eight points in the final quarter. An Oldshue basket gave GBS a 41-39 lead at 2:49 of the first OT. LA tallied the only other points of the session at 1:52 and then poured in eight unanswered points at the start of the second OT. “A tough loss to take. The girls deserved better,” said Weissenstein, whose squad defeated Niles West 49-22 in a regional semifinal on Feb. 18. “They battled really hard tonight and all year. “After the start (0-5) we had this season, nobody thought we’d reach the point where we’d be good enough to play in a doubleovertime regional final.” Titans sophomore Caitlin Morrison, a 6-1 guard, came down with eight rebounds. ■

Glenbrook North’s Qiao comes up with a red-letter day at sectional ■ by jeff davis

Victor shout: Victor Qiao of the Spartans reacts after qualifying to state in the 200 freestyle.
photography by joel lerner
Timing is everything in swimming. And that was especially true for Glenbrook North senior Victor Qiao. Qiao enjoyed the best day of his career at the Glenbrook North Sectional on Feb. 22 while showing the potential coach Josh Runkle has been preaching to him about. Qiao and senior teammate Jack Brierton both advanced to this weekend’s state meet at Evanston in four events by beating the qualifying time. Qiao dropped nearly four seconds off his season-best time to place second in the 200-yard freestyle in 1:42.89 seconds and trimmed 1.4 seconds to finish second in the 100 free (46.53) just behind champion Jon Solomon of Glenbrook South (46.48). Teaming with Brierton, sophomore Mark Schneider and senior Patrick Gosciminski, Qiao anchored both the 200 free relay that placed second in 1:26.79 to break the 2007 school record of 1:27.16 and the 400 free relay that took third in 3:11.77 with a nearly eight-second drop. “I honestly could not ask for a better day, especially for sectionals,” Qiao said. “This year I just said I’m going to have fun. I wish I had this mentality for the last three years. “My confidence is up after today, something that Coach Runkle has been waiting for. I realize I could do some damage at the state meet. These are things that Coach Runkle has been trying to tell me the entire season and I didn’t buy into it until now. It’s not too late. In fact, it’s good timing. Time to get going.” Qiao showed big improvement over last year, when he finished 37th in the 100 free (48.36) and 39th in the 200 free (1:46.79) at state while also swimming on the 27th-place 200 free relay (1:28.61). “This guy is kind of starting to figure out he’s a better swimmer than he thinks he is. It kind of took him to his senior year to get him there, but at least he got there,” Runkle said. “He’s never dropped (time) at this (sectional) meet.” Qiao’s progress was helped by becoming a better teammate and leader. “Before I was a bit more narrow-minded in my thinking. It was about me, because I thought it was an individual sport,” Qiao said. “It is about you when you’re racing, but to get to that point you need your teammates. When they’re supporting you, you can see it and you can feel it and it just helps you. That’s the environment I’ve been in this year, and that’s why this year was a lot better.” Brierton, a first-time state qualifier, also advanced with a third in the 50 free (21.82) and fifth in the 100 free (47.90) after improving on his season-bests of 22.34 and 49.40. “Everything just came together in one meet,” Brierton said. “It’s just amazing that I could do that.” ■

For David and Brenda, Hawaii visit offers a look at paradise
We went to celebrate a friend’s 50th birthday in Hawaii this year. He wanted to celebrate it Hawaii 5-0 style We went sightseeing on Kona first. We saw a zebra, Texas longhorn and a water buffalo in an animal rescue area. We went to a black sand beach, which was awesome — it’s made out of the lava from a volcano. Then we went to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. We walked up a volcano a bit — it had last erupted in August.
“They had a fireplace set up on the beach so you could make s’mores. We looked up at the sky — the stars were amazing.”
Brenda and David Kuo of Northbrook are looking forward to the Auxiliary of NorthShore University HealthSystem at Evanston and Glenbrook Hospitals’ kickoff event on March 13 for its June gala — of which Brenda is a co-chair.

We flew from Kona to Honolulu. We stayed at the Sheraton Waikiki, right on the beach. The oceanfront room we had was absolutely mesmerizing. It was like waking up and looking out at paradise every single day. They also had an infinity pool there. We got the club level, where they serve you breakfast and you get appetizers at night — you can make a meal of that. We traveled to a beach to snorkel in water up to our chest. You could see thousands of fish. For our friend Rick Ueno’s birthday, we said we’d do a catamaran ride — he said he didn’t want that. His wife surprised him at the Moana Surfrider, a Westin resort and spa. There were 20 guests, and they served dinner on the beach. We had poached shellfish, roasted cauliflower, clams, black truffles and more. They had a fireplace set up on the beach so you could make s’mores. We looked up at the sky — the stars were amazing. You couldn’t see that in Chicago. Brenda and David Kuo, as told to David Sweet ■
