It is - through director Paul Sarah Karl, Administration Associate Greengrass's distinctive lens - simultaneously a pulse-pounding thriller, and a complex portrait of the myriad effects of globalization. The film focuses on the relationship between the Alabama's commanding officer, Captain Richard Phillips (two time Academy Award®- winner Tom Hanks), and the Somali pirate captain, Muse (Barkhad Abdi), who takes him hostage. Phillips and Muse are set on an unstoppable collision course when Muse and his crew target Phillips' unarmed ship; in the ensuing standoff, 145 miles off the Somali coast, both men will find themselves at the mercy of forces beyond their control.

Quakerism Committee Program Emmet Gowin, renowned photographer Tuesday, July 27 at 7:00 p.m. Rebroadcast on Channel 970 Emmet Gowin, Princeton University Professor Emeritus of Photography, will give a quick overview of his work over the last six decades. Gowin’s visual wonderment contemplates humanity’s relationship to the natural world The( One Hundred Circle Farm and Mariposa Noturnas), his favorite muse—his wife Edith Morris and extended Virginia family, aerial vistas of nuclear test sites, and scientific surveys of tropical ecosystems and their dependent biodiversity. He has created exquisite compositions of the volcanic devastation of Washington’s Mount St. Helens, the chemical contamination of the Hanford Nuclear Reservation, pivot irrigation agriculture in Kansas, the chemo-petrol industries of the Czech Republic, and most recently, the Spanish province of Granada. Gowin discusses his “transition from the intimate nature of those first photographs with the most recent series of photographs of agriculture on an industrial scale and its amazing beauty and form, which also relates to the rapid, irreplaceable loss of water in the Ogalala aquifer.” This program was recorded on Mother’s Day, 2021, so it is also a tribute to his wife Edith—“my inspiration and subject for many of the best of my photographs for many years." Emmet Gowan is a long-time member of Newtown Friends (Quaker) Meeting. Norval, Quakerism Committee

Green & Red Dot Alert! Most every resident has been on the lookout for name tags with green dots that identify recent arrivals at Pennswood. We are currently having a big influx of new people moving into Pennswood apartments and it is as important as ever that they be made to feel at home as soon as possible. Many of you have also noticed and asked about the other Pennswood Newcomer name tags, the ones with the red dots. Those are meant to identify Newcomers Committee members. Please, everyone, short- and long-term residents both, feel free to offer us suggestions for activities or practical information that will help new residents become more involved with Pennswood. Do continue to engage our new residents sporting green dots, and thank you for your concern and helpfulness in our efforts to welcome and integrate them into the Pennswood community. Jackie, The Newcomers Committee

“A Room with a View”—and You? The next show in the Resident Art Gallery, mounted by the committee for the gallery, goes up on Sunday, August 22. You may think that it’s only early July--lots of time to think of and execute an art work for the show, but the time goes fast, particularly now that Pennswood is full of activities again. The theme of the show is “Room with a View" and the song that phrase comes from goes on to say that the next wanted item is you. The song is an inexorable earworm. Clear it from your head by bringing your art to the Resident Art Gallery on Thursday, August 19. Once again, let me remind you to prepare your artwork properly so it is not turned back at the door. Please frame all pictures of whatever medium and make sure they have secure wire on the back from which to hang. Artwork in clay should be able to stand securely on our pedestals. We look for Fine Art in the Resident Art Gallery and look forward to seeing yours. Yoma, Resident Art Gallery

Meet Stella, New Resident Stella has come to Pennswood…all the way from Langhorne! Stella was born and raised in the Bronx. She went to Hunter College in New York for two degrees (education and physical education) and started teaching in 1954, teaching fourth and fifth grades for her thirty-year career. She enjoyed bringing students out of the classroom, with trips on the subway to imaginative learning sites such as the Museum of Natural History, art museums, Chinatown, and Flushing Meadow Park. As well as teaching, Stella worked in an after-school program at a local Jewish Community Center gym, teaching dodgeball and volleyball, taking this coaching skill to several private schools in New York City as well. She met her future husband at the gym! Her husband David had a Community College degree in commercial art when he joined the Army during the Korean War. He completed college on the G.I. bill, becoming an educator himself. He was interested in the lives of the students and went on to become first a guidance counsellor and then a school social worker. Stella and Dave raised their three boys, first in Queens, then in Valley Stream, Nassau County, New York. All three sons are college graduates who now live in Albany, New York, Yardley, and Putnam Couny, New York, respectively. Between them, they have given Stella six grandchildren, When her husband began to develop Parkinson’s disease, they moved to Flowers Mill in Langhorne; they also purchased a condo in Delray Beach, Florida, to try Florida life in the winter. After her husband passed away, Stella moved to Pennswood, where she already knew several residents. Stella and David traveled in Europe and the USA, particularly enjoying Hawaii, the Mediterranean area, and trips to Israel. Stella has always been involved in her synagogue and she continues to study on Saturday mornings in Yardley. She would be interested in creating or joining a group at Pennswood to celebrate a monthly Seder and the High Holy Days. Choral music and mahjong are her particular interests. Although new, Stella already feels at home and comfortable here, re-connecting with several good friends. Stop her and say “WELCOME.”

BOOK DISCUSSION GROUP Our next book discussion on Tuesday, September 14 at 10:30 a.m. is Margot, an intriguing work of fiction by Jillian Cantor. If you’re one of the millions who have been touched by The Dairy of Anne Frank, you may recall that the author had an elder sister named Margot who kept a diary of her own. Like Anne, Margot died in the Bergen-Belson concentration camp in March, 1945. But what if she hadn’t? What if instead she escaped to the USA and tried to forge a new life with a different name and identity? Ms. Cantor may be able to join us for the discussion!

On Tuesday, November 9 at 10:30 a.m., we will be discussing Caste by Pulitzer Prize winning author of The Warmth of other Suns by Isabel Wilkerson. The author gives us a portrait of an unseen phenomenon in America as she explores stories about real people and how our history has been shaped by a hidden caste system—a rigid hierarchy of human ranking. Linking the caste systems of America, India, and Nazi Germany, Wilkerson explores 8 pillars that underlie caste systems across civilizations. She documents how the Nazis studied the racial systems in America to plan their ostracizing of the Jews. She writes about the surprising health costs of caste in depression, anxiety, and life expectancy and its effect on our culture and politics. Finally, she points to ways we can move beyond the destructive separation of human divisions towards hope in our common humanity. There have been many books written about systematic racism, but none have discussed the hidden caste system and its toll on us all. There are many interesting interviews with the author, all accessible by googling Caste and Isabel Wilkerson. Come and join us. We meet every other month on the second Tuesday at 10:30 a.m. in the Residents Conference Room. Sandy, Book Discussion Group

It’s an interesting connection at another time in the relationship between Russia and the US. In the “space race,” Russia got there first. And, comparing Moscow’s Metro and the New York Subway, Russia is also way ahead in the “mass transit race.” During a recent trip that included Moscow, I found the Metro system to be a delight—safe, clean, extensive, fast, quiet, well lit, well kept, plus each station is uniquely designed and decorated. And, I found the other riders to be friendly and helpful to a lost tourist like myself. 27 Jill A Swimming Pool!—In the Desert? Atacama Desert, Peru 2019

While on a Viking ocean cruise, I took a bus side trip into the driest, hottest place on earth, Peru’s Atacama Desert. Our destination was a closed salt peter mine, which once was extraordinary enough to be listed as a UNESCO world heritage site. When it was functioning, the owners built a swimming pool for both management and workers. The company town was self-sufficient, including schools, bakeries, hospital, and this pool. The water for the pool and the town came through a large, lengthy pipeline through which flowed meltwater from the high Andes Mountains. By the time of our visit, the mine was closed, the town vacant, and the pool empty. Peru’s mining industry had refocused on copper, all of which was being sold to China.

28 Stan French Retrofit—Royal to Private near Paris, France 1958 While I was doing military service at Fontainebleau, France during the late 1950s, I read in my Michelin Guide that the Château Vaux le Vicomte had become privately owned and had opened to the public. The incentive for the owners to open rooms to the public was a tax advantage received for opening two rooms. I do not remember much about the rooms I was able to tour, but I will never forget the significance of the design team selected for that project. They included Louis Le Vau, architect, Andre Le Notre, landscape architect, and Charles Le Brun, interior decorator. This team went on to design Versailles for the king. Their design principles included visual axes in the gardens and became known as the “Louis XIV Style.” My visit turned out to be more than I had expected. Seeing the precursor to Versailles revealed a most interesting story of how architects develop their careers and sometimes get lucky with repeat clients. 29 Stan Contrasts: Nature v. Man-Made Grand Teton Mountain Range, Wyoming 2017 We arrived after dark in Jackson Hole in Wyoming for a Road Scholar trip to the National Parks. Little did we know until the next morning that we were right next to the Grand Teton Mountain Range. We would continue to follow the range on our way north to Canada. The rugged outcropping adjacent to the flat prairie was an amazing contrast of what nature had done and what man could build. The photo depicts a Mormon row (continued on next page)

The mountains look almost celestial in the sunlight, in contrast to the dark buildings in the foreground, built with hard work using all locally produced materials. It’s a memory I will never forget and am glad to have recorded on film.

30 Stan Not Whistling in Canada Whistler, British Columbia, Canada 2018

When I arrived in Vancouver, BC in December 2018, I was not “whistling a happy tune.” The temperature was well below freezing, and I had come to go cross -country skiing at Whistler Mountain. This had been the site for the XXI Winter Olympics in 2010. It was interesting to see how the facilities had been retro-fitted for use for the games. There were different places to ski and a well-laid-out Olympic Village with great accommodations, restaurants, and shopping. If you were not inclined to ski, you could take a gondola ride to the top of the twin peaks. From there you could take another gondola to the other peak. At that point you could take an open-air chair lift back to where you had started or return the way you had arrived. To my surprise it was not a straight-run cable but a slack cable that dropped you down to the valley between the peaks before rising on the other side. It was bitter cold, and needless to say we returned the way we had arrived. Taking this photo was a challenge but it gave me an out-of-world feeling I shall not forget.
