BY IGOR STUDENKOV For Sun-Times Media I @istudenkov

Nues officials past and present poured glasses of water into the new stormwater basin at the Our Lady of Random Church on Dec. 5, marking the completion of a project that promises to make the surrounding areas significantly less flood-prone. The new stormwater basins at Our Lady of Ransom and Mary- hill Cemetery are part of the first stage of the village-wide flood mitigation project. The basins are intended to collect stormwater before it overwhelms sewers and then gradually release it. Flooding has been an ongoing issue in many parts of Nues for decades, but it wasn't until 2008 that the village set out to address it in a significant way. With the first phase completed, Niles is gearing up for the next phase. The Cleveland Relief Sewer project will address flooding is- sues in the area further east. It is expected to go out for bid in the spring of 2015. When it rains, the water drains into the sewers. But when there's more water than the sewers can handle, the water doesn't drain, which leads to flooding. Village of Nues officials past and present prepare to pour water in the recently completed Our Lady of Ransom storm water basin. lOOR SThDNKOV/FOR PIONEERPRESS The stormwater basins are designed to give the excess water acre-feet of stormwater, or enough ees Joe LoVerde, Chris Hanusiak watched the basin being built and things," said Przybylo.

CHICAGOSPIASH.COM I DECEMBER 7-13, 2014 11 HANNAH HAS M. STERED THE ART OF DISAPPEARING. As an actress, she vanishes into her characters; as an activist, she's committed herseifto the Earth's well-being by living off the grid; as a celebrity - despite a decades-spanning career lidI ofhigh-profile roles in films like "Splash," "Blade Runner" and "Kifi Bill" - she eschews the limelight, rarely allowing the public a glimpse of her. That ability to evaporate into thin air comes from a deep well ofself-awareness - and from a desire to find real connections with the world around her. "I read a quote somewhere that art, for many, is a result ofthe tension between the deep desire to communicate and the urge to hide," says Hannah, 54. "I think that's true of me. I'm interested in the work - less so in the circus around Her latest project is just as enigmatic as she is. For the past several months, Hannah has been traveling around the world (including her hometown ofChicago) to shoot the much- anticipated "Sense8," a Netflix series created by the Wachowski siblings ("The Matrix" trilogy, "Cloud Atlas") and set to premiere in 2015. Little information is available about the show; according to Deadline, the sci-fi drama - co-starring Naveen Andrews ("Lost"), Ami Ameen ("The Maze Runner") and Tuppence Middleton ("Jupiter Ascending"), among others - "follows eight characters around the world who, in the aftermath of a tragic death, find themselves linked to each other mentally and emotionally." Hannah won't offer much more by way of plot details and provides only an opaque description of her character, Angel. "She has to [make] sacrifices for what she wants to protect," Hannah says. "That is something I believe in deeply, so it was natural to connect with that aspect of her character." The series allows the actress to plunge deep into an elaborate fantasyland, a skill the Chi- aryl Hannah dives into her cryptic new cago-raised Hannah picked up as a young girl attending Francis W. Parker and Latin School Netf lix series, her Chicago childhood of Chicago. Hannah describes her younger self as "shy and out of it," a quiet and awkward ado- and her courageous activism lescent. But inside her head, thanks to an active BY RACHEL HANDLER imagination, she was free.

Topics run the gamut from culinary es- sentials like baking, food preservation and scratch-made pasta, to ethnic specialties, chocolate, comfort food and gluten-free menus. While building a cookbook library is a matter of personal taste, here are some noteworthy titles that merit a second look and gift consideration for the foodie in your life. The Baking Bible Houghton Mifflin Harcourt) How to deal with a pie crust that shrinks during baking or a cake that cracks are a few of the problem-solving techniques addressed by Rose Levy Beranbaum in her most recent cookbook.

By it MELISSA feels like the ELSMO Sometimeshectic holiday OUT OF MEL'S KETCHEN season provides few opportunities for merry elves to take a breath, let alone enjoy a quiet moment sipping cider by the fire. Hokey made-for-TV movies make it seem like string- ing lights, wrapping gifts and hanging wreaths magically happen overnight, but savvy decorators know all about the real work involved in setting the stage for a divine holiday. Sweeping rogue pine needles, hammering count- less nails and careftilly stowing all of the ugliest orna- ments on the back ofthe tree is a time-consuming task. And just when the 8-foot ladder is tucked safely back in the garage, the real entertaining begins. Tradition compels holiday cooks to churn out dozens of bakery-quality cookies, pounds of perfect potluck appetizers and a Norman Rockwell-worthy Christmas roast. Washing dishes and soothing occasional burns comes with the territory when you are busy creating a sense ofwonder and awe in others. While December can be a daunting and busy month, the effort to bring out the spirit of the season is well worth it. Being an elf is magical work and taking a brief mo- ment to appreciate the holiday feeling you've created should be an essential gift you give yourself every yeat As a rule I take one evening for myself during this festive time of year I simmer a batch of spicy mulled wine and whip up a rustic tart brimming with sweet pears and sa- vory cheese.

u III BOYS SWIMMING AND DIVING SEASON PREVIEW NOTEBOOK Hawks look for swimmers whocanadd depth

Royzen making his dives more difficult, learning new ones

BY MATT HARNESS [email protected], @harnesspreps

Coach Don Kura's challenge at Maine South this season will be to find swimmers who can score points behind seniors Jonathan Ramoska and Philip Wachowski. At least right now, the Hawks aren't as deep as they were last season when they took third at the Niles North Sectional and fourth in the always-competitive Central Suburban South. The big loss was the graduation of sprinter Makai Deneve-Arnam. Ramoska and Wachowski both swam on the 200- and 400-yard freestyle relays at state last season. In addition to the freestyle events, both also swim the backstroke, although freestyle races will be the main focus for each, according to Kura. "They are our two most accom- plished guys," Kura said. "There's a ABOVE: Maine South's Jonathan Ramoska swims the anchor leg of the decent drop-off after that.

III MAINE EAST AAU experîencepaysoff for Alba Garner

Junior guard stronger, more confident after playing for Midwest Elite

BY ROBVALENTUl Special to the Tribune, @chicagolandprep

EVANSTON - Maine East junior guard Janelle Alba Garner gave AAU basketball a shot when she was in fifth grade but didn't enjoy the experience. She felt out of place and simply didn't have much fun. But when five seniors graduated from Maine East - leaving a team that went 20-7 last season and won the Central Suburban North championship - Alba Garner decided to give AAU ball another shot. Hoping to improve her Janelle Alba skills for this year, Alba Garner Garner tried out for Mid- west Elite and made a U-15 team coached by B.andy Weibel. "Playing with them was a completely different experience," Alba Garner said. "There's been nothing like it. I would have to guard [Fremd's] Haley Gorecki in practice and she's going to Duke. It's made me so much better and adjusting to that level has helped me bring it back to Maine East."

BY NICK BULLOCK Special to the Tribune, @Pioneer_Press

Anchored by Tom Ehrlich, a fifth-year senior from Nues North, the Valparaiso football team's offensive line allowed the fewest sacks in the NCAA Foot- ball Championship Subdivision this season. Opposing defenses took down Valparaiso quarter- backs behind the line of scrim- mage only five times all season. Only five other teams allowed fewer than 10. Ehrlich and his teammates committed the sixth-fewest penalties per game (4.67) and tied for the most fourth-down conversions (21) in all the FCS. Valparaiso struggled to a 4-8 record this season, but it fin- ished 3-3 at home and improved on the 2013 team's 1-10 record.
