In This Corner…This week Chris Isaak, 59, released his 13th studio album, First Comes the Night, with its rockabilly fi rst single, “Please Don’t Call.” Here are fi ve fun things the “Wicked Game” singer-songwriter shared exclusively with Parade before beginning his stint as a judge on Australia’s version of The X Factor.

1. I spent a year in Japan on a boxing scholarship. I’m a better singer than boxer—just look at my nose.

2. I’m a huge Fred Astaire fan and I took dance lessons when I was a kid.

3. I’ve never written a check.

4. I have a metal plate in my head—I can’t get through a metal detector at an airport without getting searched.

5. I love to draw goofy, sexy, weird and sweet cartoons.

Q: How many times have Brad Pitt and wife Angelina Jolie Pitt worked together?

—Ramon G., Tulsa, Okla.A: By the Sea, which opened in theaters on Friday, marks the third time that Pitt, 51, and Jolie Pitt, 40, have collaborated, but only the second time they’ve acted together. They played husband and wife in Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2005), and Pitt produced A Mighty Heart (2007), which starred his wife. They play husband and wife again in the 1970s-era romantic drama By the Sea, which Jolie Pitt wrote and directed. The movie was shot on the Mediterranean island of Malta shortly after the couple’s 2014 wedding in France.

Q: Does Kristi Yamaguchi ever skate any-more? I would love to see her perform again.

—Gwen S., Tuscaloosa, Ala.

A: The 1992 U.S. Olympic skating champion, 44, hits the ice for the annual fundraiser she holds for her Always Dream Foundation, which focuses on early childhood literacy and reading programs, but it has been years since she skated for a televised event. Her involvement continues, however, as the host of several skating shows, like tonight’s Mussel-man’s Apple Sauce Family Skating Tribute on ABC, which pairs skating stars—like her fellow Olympic champ Scott Hamilton—with their kids.

WALTER SCOTT ASKS ...

KATE BOSWORTH

Describe your character in The Art of More. “She has a tough exterior because she is a woman in a man’s world. Her father owns the company where she’s an executive, so she’s constantly trying to prove her worth. It’s a real boys’ club. She’s a chameleon. She knows how to manipulate really well.”

The show is streaming online, not on “traditional” TV. How much of a techie

are you? “I’m not very technically savvy. My husband [director Michael Polish] is, but to watch Crackle is actually a very easy thing to do, even for some-one like me.”Where did your interest in fashion

design come from? “My father was in retail. He did work for Talbots, Macy’s and Blooming-dale’s, so it’s in the blood. The last collection that I designed was a shoe line with Matisse, which launched in spring.”What are you looking forward to in 2016? “I’m working on a pretty extensive remodel on my home, so I would just like to be living in it happily with my hus-band and my dogs.”

November is quite the month for the movie actress who appeared in Blue Crush, Superman Returns,Straw Dogs and Still Alice—and who is also a fashion designer. Bosworth, 32, plays the daughter of Robert De Niro’s gangster character in Heist, now in theaters. And beginning Nov. 19, she will star as Roxanna Whitman, a tough account executive in the high-stakes art world, in The Art of More, a new streaming series for the online network Crackle.com.

Twenty years ago, my mother was diagnosed with lung cancer. She had very few places to turn, and lost a diffi cult struggle.

Today, we are on the brink of real breakthroughs in lung cancer research and there are signifi cantly improved treatment options.

And yet, more than 30% of all lung cancer patients still don’t

know about the therapies, specialists, and clinical trials

available to them.

Lung cancer is a formidable foe, but we are fi nding new

ways to fi ght it. Please visit SU2C.org/LungCancer for

questions to ask your health care professional and to learn about options that

may be right for you.

MY MOM DIDN’T HAVE MANY OPTIONS. TODAY’S LUNG CANCER PATIENTS DO.

We Americans love our dogs—andnearly half of our households have one. � ey protect our homes (or think they do), round up

fl ocks (or think they do), play fetch, beg for attention (usually with great charm) and, if we let them, hog the sofa. Our relationship with dogs goes way back. When Columbus landed in the Americas, domesticated dogs were already keeping Native Americans company on hunts and protecting their teepees. Today, many of us treat our dogs like children; we cook their meals, dress them up and Instagram them. � e American Pet Products Association says we’ll spend $60 billion

on pets in 2015—and Fido will get a good percentage.

What do we get in return? Studies show that hanging out with dogs can boost immunity, lower blood pressure, improve our social lives

and alleviate depression. Unconditional love has health benefi ts, and our

dogs take care of us without even trying. But taking care of our dogs

does take eff ort, including making sure they get plenty of exercise and companionship, taking them to the vet for checkups and vaccinations, and administering heartworm, fl ea

and tick prevention. With nearly 4 million dogs entering shelters each year, spaying or neutering your pup is also an act of love.

HONOR ROLLDog scares away abductor A man stopped his truck, got out and grabbed the arm of a 15-year-old girl walking her dog in Marietta, Ga., last January. The dog, a rat terrier–pointer mix, bit the man’s ankle, allowing her to fl ee.

Dog saves boy from bees Last summer, a pit bull dragged 8-year-old Jesse-Cole Shaver of Oregon City, Ore., to safety after he was stung 24 times by a swarm of bees.

Dog alerts woman to cancer A normally shy border collie pawed repeatedly at the chest of his 46-year-old owner, Josie Conlan. Concerned, she went to the doctor, who found an aggressive cancerous tumor. The English mother of four credits the dog with saving her life by alerting her to the cancer, which had not yet spread.

A DOG’S LIFE

THE BOGEY EFFECTBogey was Addie Field’s best friend for much of her Louisiana childhood.

The Great Dane spent his days harassing chickens, chasing trucks and fathering puppies. When Field did the math, she was appalled that

Bogey, who had never been neutered, had fathered more

than 160 puppies. After Bogey died last March, the college student started setting aside money each month to pay for two dogs in her community to be fi xed in his memory. Through her Facebook page (facebook.com/thebogeyeffect), she raises money for spay/neuters and awareness about pet overpopulation. “I miss Bogey so much and am happy that people are getting involved to make a difference,” Field says. Visit aspca.org/pet-care/spayneuter to fi nd local spay/neuter clinics.

| CHEAT SHEET | HOW TO FIND A GREAT SHELTER DOG1. Check his kennel. If his kennel is cleanand he does his businessright away when taken outside, chances are he’s house-trained.

2. Say “sit.” A dog that sits when you ask has been taught a thing or two.

3. Give him the once-over. Ask a shelter worker to touch the dog’s paws, tail and haunches and see if he reacts gently or violently.

4. Pass up the puppy. Older dogs sleep through the night and are less likely to have accidents inside and be destructive while you’re away.

5. Adopt a dog in foster care. It’s the easiest way to assess a dog’s personality and energy level away from the kennel environment. And foster parents can give you an honest heads-up about the dog’s strengths and challenges.

Why do some compact fluo-rescent lamps (CFLs) come with a warning not to use them in enclosed fixtures when it’s OK to use equivalent incandescent bulbs, which burn much hotter? Also, why do CFLs have a coiled shape?

—J.G., Studio City, Calif.

The life of CFLs may be reduced when operated at higher-than-usual tempera-tures, so the problem is not overheating the fixture: It’s overheating the CFL itself. Most CFLs are constructed in long, thin tubes to gener-ate the most light using the least power, but as they must fit into fixtures designed for incandescent bulbs, manufac-turers wind the tubes into a spiral or fold them back onto themselves several times.

COULD YOU HAVE DIABETES?

There are nearly 90 million people with prediabetes in the U.S., and most of them don’t know they have it. Here’s how to know if you’re

at risk—and what you can do about it. By Melanie Haiken

HealthyStay

Here’s the problem with diabetes: Most people don’t start thinking about it until they’re diagnosed. And that’s too late, says Judith Fradkin, M.D., diabetes, endocrinology and metabolic diseases

director of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), a division of the National Institutes of Health. “�is is a disease that develops over decades,” she says. Most people, Fradkin explains, have prediabetes for a long time before the disease becomes full-blown, and even then it progresses gradually. �at leaves a big window in which to stop, slow or even reverse the disease.

Diabetes occurs when the pancreas doesn’t produce enough insulin to remove sugar from the bloodstream (or, in the case of Type 1 diabetes, any insulin at all). Excess blood sugar damages blood vessels and affects circulation, putting you at risk for a host of ailments, from heart attack and stroke to blindness, impotence and nerve damage.

“Poorly controlled diabetes is a recipe for disaster, because when you’ve got high levels of glucose circulating in your body, it really beats you up,” says American Diabetes Association spokesperson David Marrero, director of the Diabetes Translational Research Center at the Indiana University School of Medicine. “But well-controlled diabetes? It’s the leading cause of nothing,” says Marrero, who happens to have Type 1 diabetes himself. “�ere’s a lot of research to show that if you get good, close control of your glucose you can avoid many of the negative com-plications of diabetes.”

So, how do you find out your risk and do something about it? Here’s what you need to know.

UNDERSTAND YOUR RISKSAny “yes” answer increases your odds of developing diabetes. • Are you over 40?• Are you overweight?• Are you sedentary?• Do you have a family member

with diabetes?• Do you have high blood pressure?• Did you develop gestational diabe-

tes during a pregnancy?

DO A LIFESTYLE CHECK Moderate changes can reduce your risk of diabetes between 58 and 71 percent, Marrero says. Your Weight “We’re not talking about getting back to your prom-dress size. We now know that when people lose just 7 percent of their body weight, or on average 12 to 15 pounds, their diabetes risk drops by approximately 60 to 70 percent,” Marrero says. Your Blood Pressure and Cholesterol Having too-high numbers raises your risk for Type 2 diabetes. Your Sleep Recent research uncovered a sur-prisingly strong connec-tion between sleep loss and diabetes risk. �e reason: Messing with your natural sleep-wake

cycle disrupts the body’s circadian clock, which regulates metabolism, hormone levels and other impor-tant biological processes. �is may contribute to obesity and Type 2 diabetes. Get at least seven to nine hours of sleep a night, and adopt the habit of going to sleep and waking up at approximately the same time each day. (Yes, even on weekends!) If you have sleep apnea, get help so you can get the sleep you need.

KNOW HOW DIABETES IS DIAGNOSED�ere are three common tests for diabetes. Have you had one of these in the past year? If not, talk to your doctor.Fasting Plasma Glucose Test �e FPG is the most common blood test for diabetes.Prediabetes = 100–125 mg/dlDiabetes = 126 mg/dl or higher

Oral Glucose Tolerance Test �e OGTT tests to see how your body processes sugar.Prediabetes = 140–199 mg/dl Diabetes = 200 mg/dl or higher

A1C Test �is blood test measures your aver-age blood sugar over the past three months.Prediabetes = 5.7–6.4 percent Diabetes = 6.5 percent or higher

DIABETES BREAKTHROUGHS “We’re living in the golden age of diabetes management with amazing technologies that monitor your progress, prolong your life and minimize your risk for complications,” says David Marrero of the American Diabetes Association. Two recent breakthroughs point the way to more effective treatment for those with Type 1 diabetes.

THE SMART PATCH Scientists are test-ing a silicone skin patch made up of over 100 minuscule needles that sense blood glucose levels and re-lease insulin in response.

THE ARTIFICIAL PANCREAS Numerous companies are pioneering so-called hybrid systems that combine an in-sulin pump and continuous glucose monitoring with software.

T.L ike millions of others across the globe, Antonio Banderas was riveted to the coverage of the Chilean mine disaster of 2010, when 33 miners were entombed more than 2,000 feet below South America’s Atacama Desert following the

collapse of the San José gold and copper mine. Rescue seemed impossible and the miners’ slow death a near-certainty. “When I saw the real event on television it produced something in me,” he says. “Everybody was attached to the television wishing for these guys to survive. It was like a song going on all around the world, a song of life.”

Little did the Spanish actor know that a few years later he’d be deep in the Nemocón salt mines in Colombia recounting the gripping real-life tale for a movie called The 33. Directed by Mexican-born Patricia Riggen, the film (which opened this week in the U.S.) sent Banderas, nine other main actors and 23 full-time extras deep underground to sets resembling the actual San José tunnels. It wasn’t easy for the cast and crew during their month-long subterranean shoot.

“People are working [in the mines] their whole lives. And some people die there, so I don’t want it to seem like I am complaining,” Banderas says when we meet at his home on the outskirts of London, England, for his con-versation with Parade. “But filming was hard at

times. You breathe a lot of methane gas, so you have this metallic feeling in your throat. And practically the entire crew got sick. But the biggest problem was the cold.”

MINING A MIRACLEBanderas, 55, who shot to fame in 1998’s The Mask of

Zorro, stars as Mario Sepúlveda, the miners’ de facto leader during their claustrophobic ordeal. Along

with lack of food and concerns over whether they would ever be rescued, Sepúlveda and his co-workers also had to cope with tremendous heat during their 69-day ordeal.

“It was ironic that we were so cold, and we had to be practically naked the entire time, fak-ing that we were incredibly hot,” Banderas says. “They put this grease on us to fake the sweat, and

that made it even colder. After a month in that situation, you just wanted to get out. We got into the mines each day just before sunrise and would come out after sunset. We never saw daylight.”

Of course, nothing that the filmmakers and actors suffered compared to the horrors faced by

the real miners. Even when the real-life rescue team figured out a way to attempt to reach them, they knew their chances of drilling down to the miners’ exact location were incredibly slim.

“I spoke to the technicians who were involved

in the rescue,” Banderas says. “They said it was as difficult to find these guys as it would be to find a grain of rice in a swimming pool full of sand. That they got out was a miracle.”

DARKNESS AND LIGHTFor the millions watching, the rescue was emo-tional. “When we saw these guys coming out of the ground, it was euphoric,” Banderas said. “That is so important, and it is why I wanted to make this movie.”

The movie showcases an international cast, with Lou Diamond Phillips and Cuban- American Oscar Nuñez among the miners and Brazilian Rodrigo Santoro and Irishman Gabriel Byrne among the rescuers. French actress Juliette Binoche plays one of the miners’ sisters, Maria Segovia, who emerged as an im-portant figure for the families fighting for their trapped loved ones.

“We had to tell a story that unfolded in 70 days and which was very complex,” Banderas says. “And it was not only down in the mine. The movie is pivoting all the time between up on the surface with the rescuers and the fami-lies, and down below.

“You have to tell about a number of dif-ferent people. I think we have a good movie where we have the darkness that is down below, and that is totally masculine. And then up on the surface you have the light, which is totally feminine. It’s an interesting thing and it works.”

times. You breathe a lot of methane gas, so you have this metallic feeling in your throat. And practically the entire crew got sick. But the biggest problem was the cold.”

MINING A MIRACLEBanderas, 55, who shot to fame in 1998’s The Mask of

Zorro, stars as Mario Sepúlveda, the miners’ de facto leader during their claustrophobic ordeal. Along

with lack of food and concerns over whether they would ever be rescued, Sepúlveda and his co-workers also had to cope with tremendous heat during their 69-day ordeal.

“It was ironic that we were so cold, and we had to be practically naked the entire time, fak-ing that we were incredibly hot,” Banderas says. “They put this grease on us to fake the sweat, and

that made it even colder. After a month in that situation, you just wanted to get out. We got into the mines each day just before sunrise and would come out after sunset. We never saw daylight.”

Of course, nothing that the filmmakers and actors suffered compared to the horrors faced by

the real miners. Even when the real-life rescue team figured out a way to attempt to reach them, they knew their chances of drilling down to the miners’ exact location were incredibly slim.

“I spoke to the technicians who were involved

in the rescue,” Banderas says. “They said it was as difficult to find these guys as it would be to find a grain of rice in a swimming pool full of sand. That they got out was a miracle.”

DARKNESS AND LIGHTFor the millions watching, the rescue was emo-tional. “When we saw these guys coming out of the ground, it was euphoric,” Banderas said. “That is so important, and it is why I wanted to make this movie.”

The movie showcases an international cast, with Lou Diamond Phillips and Cuban- American Oscar Nuñez among the miners and Brazilian Rodrigo Santoro and Irishman Gabriel Byrne among the rescuers. French actress Juliette Binoche plays one of the miners’ sisters, Maria Segovia, who emerged as an im-portant figure for the families fighting for their trapped loved ones.

“We had to tell a story that unfolded in 70 days and which was very complex,” Banderas says. “And it was not only down in the mine. The movie is pivoting all the time between up on the surface with the rescuers and the fami-lies, and down below.

“You have to tell about a number of dif-ferent people. I think we have a good movie where we have the darkness that is down below, and that is totally masculine. And then up on the surface you have the light, which is totally feminine. It’s an interesting thing and it works.”

The movie is already a box office hit in Chile and in Mexico, where it has enjoyed an early release.

69 DAYS IN 2010The rescue of the 33 miners trapped in a Chilean mine in 2010 became a worldwide television event—and an emotional rallying cry for international aid and assistance.

AUG. 5 A cave-in at the cash-strapped San José gold and copper mine trapped 33 men 2,300 feet below the surface. Geological instability in the area, and the mining company’s long record of safety violations, had resulted in numerous fines and accidents, and even deaths. The miners’ chances of survival were thought to be slim.

AUG. 22 Exploratory boreholes were drilled, and 17 days after the accident a note in bright red letters was pulled up by a probe. It read (in Spanish), We are well in the shelter, the 33 of us.

The exuberant families of the trapped miners, the

sets inside the mine. A huge ball of fire erupt-ed and chased everyone around the mine, just like in the movie.”

Fortunately, no one was hurt. “But we had to put the movie on hiatus and start all over again,” she explains. “It was scary just to be there. It was like making a movie about dino-saurs where there really were dinosaurs. We were aware of the dangers of the mine every single day.”

For the rescue scenes aboveground, Riggen and her team filmed just 10 minutes from the actual San José mine in the Atacama Desert. “I went to see the mine,” she says, “and I cannot describe the fear that one feels standing in the entrance to that horrid place. You can sense the negative energy.”

Many of the extras employed for the rescue scenes hail from the nearby village of Copiapó, and were involved in the real rescue process, pressuring the government and cheering on their friends, brothers and husbands who were trapped beneath the earth. A number of the real miners also worked on set, visiting the filmmak-ers in Columbia and helping marshal the extras for the scenes in the desert.

RELIVING THE TRAGEDYIn truth, life after their rescue has not been easy for the 33. Their celebrity has not translated into financial reward, and many have had trouble returning to their former work. The filmmakers, therefore, have ensured that the miners get a portion of the film’s takings at the international box office.

For miner Mario Sepúlveda, the film is a blessing but also a heart-rending reminder of the horrors that he and his co-workers faced.

“Seeing this film today, it makes me relive the intense and tragic moments that I lived with my colleagues,” he tells Parade. “It brings me some tragic memories from the accident. But in every aspect, it shows what we lived through. I am still worried, though, because accidents continue in that area and there is so much to do.”

Banderas spent time with Sepúlveda and admires the miner’s honesty and integrity. “He carries a bipolarity that is very strong,” the actor says. “He is a man who is making you

laugh and will then drop like a stoneand be very sad. �e most important thing about him was that he learned to survive at a very early age. He had many brothers, and he has a toughness that is exactly what you need in a situation like the mine collapse.”

�e film recounts how the miners’ fore-man, Luis “Don Lucho” Urzúa, played by Diamond Phillips, struggled with respon-sibility in the wake of the collapse. “Prob-ably because he had more information and he knew they were doomed,” offers Banderas. �e mining company had not installed fully functioning communica-tion systems, or completed the construc-tion of escape ladders. �e miners’ food reserve was shockingly small; before making contact with rescuers on day 17, they survived each day on a spoonful of canned tuna and a shot of milk, some of which was spoiled.

“But Mario was an action man,” Ban-deras adds. “He was not going to just sit there. He put a military discipline into place, to stretch as much as possible the days that they had in there. Without his participation, probably the oldest of the miners would have died.”

According to director Riggen, Ban-deras, like Mario, also emerged as a leader among men. His celebrity may have blos-somed courtesy of his films with director

Robert Rodriguez, from the Spy Kids movies to Desperado and Once Upon a Time in Mexico, as well as his voiceover outings as Puss in Boots in the Shrek films, but he treated all of his co-stars and the extras on �e 33 with good humor and grace.

Fellow actor Nuñez talks of Banderas in glowing terms. “When we were shoot-ing �e 33, he had a lot of great stories with which he regaled us,” he says. “He would have these deep philosophical, historical and political conversations in Spanish with some of the other actors.” Nuñez laughs. “I only caught every seventh word.”

A RENAISSANCE MAN�at Banderas would engage in philo-sophical discussions comes as no surprise. A man of many talents, he composes music and writes poetry. He is currently studying in London at the prestigious Central Saint Martins to learn the art of menswear for a new fashion-related busi-ness venture.

“�ere are many aspects to me that people don’t know about,” he says. “I have to keep moving or I get tired. I am a very active person.”

His broad range of interests, he says, is a legacy of those with whom he has worked. As an actor, he has shown tre-mendous range and a ready, self-deprecat-ing wit. �is is testimony, perhaps, to his early immersion in Spanish theater and then as a film actor under the tutelage of director Pedro Almodóvar.

“He opened my eyes not only to cin-ema,” Banderas says of Almodóvar, with whom he has shot seven films (including Matador, Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down! and �e Skin I Live In), “but also to how we can understand the lives of people who are different from us. He showed me how to accept that.”

After working in Spain, Banderas broke through in America in 1992 with the movie �e Mambo Kings, then branched out with such diverse fare as

Philadelphia, Desperado, Evita and �e Mask of Zorro, which propelled him into the mainstream.

He has also stepped behind the camera twice, including directing his former wife Melanie Griffith in Crazy in Alabama (1999). He separated from Griffith in

2014, though they remain good friends and have a daughter together, Stella. As a couple, he and Griffith remain close to the Versace family, and Banderas hopes to play the late Italian fashion designer Gianni Versace in a movie soon.

Of his films that are yet to be com-pleted he is most passionate about 33 Días, in which he and director Carlos Saura unfold the story behind painter Pablo Picasso’s famous Spanish Civil War masterpiece, Guernica. During his preparation, Banderas painted a full-size replica of the piece.

“We will see Picasso showing us the horrors of war,” he says.

It seems that the number 33 is current-ly of great significance in Banderas’ life.

“Yes,” he says with a smile. “I love learning from all the films I’m involved with. I am what I am thanks to my pro-fession. I have learned things in situ that are not written in books. And that has to do with interesting people I have worked with—people like the miners, men like Mario Sepúlveda.”

Banderas—with Lou Diamond Phillips, who plays miner Luis Urzúa—impressed his 33 co-stars with his good humor on the set.

Banderas married actress Melanie Griffith in 1996, and they raised a daughter, Stella (shown here in 2012).

people of Chile and the country’s government rallied behind a massive outpouring of global support involving three international drilling teams, NASA and more than a dozen multinational corporations.

for the TV cameras: Mission accomplished Chile. More than 1 billion people were watching, and most of them had tears in their eyes.

DATE NIGHTThey met every Friday to look for love online—

and instead found the best friendship ever. By Heather L. Sellers

16 | NOVEMBER 15, 2015

Friday evening, I show up at my friend Magda’s house with toothbrush, pajamas and laptop.

“Get this,” she says at the door. “I got an email from a man today. He says, ‘I’m searching for that

rare and elusive Brianiac lady.’ Bri-aniac!”Magda is single and searching for love at age 67. I’m

single and searching for love at 50. She’s beautiful, a pianist, a cyclist and runs a cat rescue network; I’m a writer, a swimmer, in love with dogs. Together, we’re on four different online dating sites.

“Another one likes my ‘model stair.’ Model stair!” She grimaces. A former magazine editor, spelling problems hurt Magda physically.

Over dinner, we help each other send notes to men online. It’s like high school, at the table with lemonade; friends doing homework together. When she despairs, I remind her of her great date with the hilarious underwater ar-cheologist. The handsome 80-year-old art collector who took her to see the turtles. My pleasantly in-

teresting dinner with the shy Filipino chemist. But once, at an ice cream parlor in Grand Rapids,

her date walked in, saw Magda and paused. “I don’t date women with white hair,” he said curtly. I was groped in a restaurant by my last online date. To keep searching requires everything we’ve got. Everything.

So there I am every Friday evening, at Magda’s house. We set the timer. Forty-five minutes for our online love chores. I’m always dumbstruck as I page through the ads. So many humans looking for love. This crazy virtual cafeteria of human longing.

“Why do so many of them hold up a fish?” Magda asks. “Why would you have a snake wrapped around your torso?” I smile and tell her to keep moving. It’s like shopping. Don’t get stuck on what you don’t even like. And the truth is, I admire every single one of us for trying, for continuing to care about connection at

all, even as we are aging, losing our hair and our teeth, our looks, our memory, our vision. I love us, at midlife—and beyond—sunset clichés, bad photos and all. We have hope. We have desire. And Magda and I have each other.

After dinner, we go for a walk, admiring plants, gossiping about neighbors. We can talk about fir species for hours. Magda and I have that rare special “click.” We get each other. When we return to her house, she makes popcorn. We watch Law & Order while two marmalade cats snuggle against my thigh. Magda falls asleep on the sofa.

I open my computer and read a message from Bruce, the gynecologist-comedian. He wants to get drinks Friday night.

I pad down the hall to the guest room. As I lay there in Magda’s beautiful room under her handmade quilts, I don’t feel lonely at all. I feel home. I’ve never had a friend like Magda. Someone with whom I have so much in common, who knows how to tend the connection with-out smothering or neglecting it.

In the morning, I write yes to next Friday night with the new guy.

When I meet the right man, and fall in love, I know how much I will miss these Friday nights with Magda, this home, this oasis of the finest friendship.

22 | NOVEMBER 15, 2015

For an institution that’s 90 years old (on Nov. 28), the Grand Ole Opry is as hip as the “it” town where it’s located. While fans of country music have been gathering around the radio to listen to their Grand Ole Opry favorites for nearly a century, the broad-

cast and venue now attract all sorts of folks, including cast members of ABC’s hit series Nashville, who often perform there. � ose who make a pilgrimage to Nashville to watch the show live at the Grand Ole Opry House or the historic Ryman Auditorium—or listen to it on 650 AM WSM or online (download the Opry app at mobileroadie.com)—seem to appreciate its link to the past and future. It is perhaps the only show that features three generations of performers—legends, superstars and hot newcomers—all on one stage.

Grand Ole Opry performers “write another page of country music history with every per-formance,” says Pete Fisher, Opry vice presi-dent and general manager. � e audience never knows who will shake up the advertised lineup by popping in for a perfor-mance, from country greats like Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood to unexpected artists such as Barry Gibb, Steven Tyler, NBC news anchor and bassist Lester Holt or Mumford & Sons.

Performing at the Opry “feels like playing in your living room with the closest of your family and friends,” says Carrie Underwood, an Opry member. “It’s all about being a part of a legacy. It is home.” —Beverly Keel

GRAND OLE OPRYCountry music’s most celebrated show turns 90.

Visit Parade.com/opry for quotes from Opry members including Brad Paisley, Loretta Lynn

and Garth Brooks, plus fun trivia.

Opry Fast Facts � The Opry has broadcast live for 4,600+ (and count-ing) consecutive Saturday nights. � Opry members are chosen by Opry management based on criteria such as past success, future potential and audi-ence relationship. � The Opry is so cool that Taylor Swift has worn its T-shirt on her tour.� In 1954, Elvis Presley made his fi rst appear-ance—and his last, after his sugges-tive dance moves caused an Opry offi cial to suggest he not quit his day job.� Approximately 6,024 songs are performed during Opry shows each year.

Our national love a� air with Brussels sprouts doesn’t seem to be ending—and this Thanksgiving is

no exception. This version from chef Anthony Lamas, owner of Seviche in Louisville, Ky., comes from his new cookbook, Southern Heat: New Southern Cooking Latin Style (The Taunton Press). Born in Los Angeles to a Puerto Rican father and Mexican mother, Lamas is known for blending his Latin culinary roots with the � avors of his adopted home. His Brussels sprouts feature some of his Dixie favorites: sorghum, which is the South’s answer to maple syrup, and pecans. —Alison Ashton

Glazed Brussels Sprouts With Toasted Pecans

Make-ahead tip: Blanch the Brussels sprouts (step 1) a day or two ahead and refrigerate.

BRUSSELSSPROUTS

1. Boil 2 quarts of water in a large saucepan; add 2 tsp salt and 2 Tbsp butter. Add Brussels sprouts; cook 3 minutes. Drain and put in an ice-water bath. Drain and pat dry.

2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sprouts cut-side-down in a single layer. Cook, without stirring, 3–5 minutes or until bottoms are caramelized. Turn, add remaining 1½ Tbsp butter; cook 2–3 minutes or until caramelized. Stir in nuts and salt to taste. Remove from heat; drizzle with sorghum. Serve immediately. Serves 4.
