Under her inspiring and energetic leadership, Cellospeak has since become a 501(c)(3) not-forprofit corporation with a devoted membership. Cello speak’s Annual Cello Workshops now extend over two weeks and are attended by over 100 students and served by over 16 professional teachers each summer, bringing adult cello students and faculty together from the four corners of the nation to immerse themselves in an extraordinary musical experience. They express their love of the cello by playing, studying and performing in coached ensembles and in Cellospeak’s signature choir. The workshops offer participants the chance not only to improve technical skills, gain exposure to diverse teaching styles, and perform in nightly recitals, but also to create lifelong friendships with others who share their passion. Following the concert, Ms. Amarandos’, now 90, will retire as Artistic Director, but will continue to share her love of the cello and to nurture her legacy as Executive Chairman of the Cellospeak Board.

F EMALE , F ORTY - ONE & F ORGING A N EW C AREER IN B UILDING M AINTENANCE Orleans Technical College helps Wynnefield Heights resident transform a life-long interest into a life-fulfilling career. few years before her fortieth birthday, Wynnefield Heights resident, Gaynita Reynolds thought she was “settled for life” in her customer service job. For most of her working years, Gaynita enjoyed steady desk jobs that paid adequately to support her needs and lifestyle. She liked the work well enough and had no desire to make a change. Or, so she thought. Two major life events proved to be life-changing for Gaynita. The first was an illness requiring her to take ample time off and led to her losing her date entry job. When Gaynita was physically able to return to work, the slow-to-recover economy made full-time job opportunities scarce. Gaynita tried her best to make ends meet. “I picked up a few odd jobs to get by,” said Gaynita. “But not having steady work, on top of recovering from illness takes a toll on the emotions as well. I fell into a depression and started to realize that not having work wasn’t the only issue; I felt I needed something more in my life.” While Gaynita was considering her need for “more,” she experienced her second major life event as a thirty-something woman. In 2011, her mother passed away, and Gaynita entered the journey of grief and adjustment that comes with losing a parent. “What do they say? Whenever God closes a door, He opens a window,” said Gaynita. “It was tragic losing my mother, and left an emptiness. But work needed to be done after her passing, and, that work lead me down a path to fulfillment.” Among the work were the repair and renovation of her mother's home. Always a bit of a tomboy, Gaynita enjoyed tinkering with home repair and mechanics. But, she never entertained the idea of making a career of it – especially as a woman at age forty. “Gaynita is a unique woman, but the attitude she had isn't unique,” said Debbie Bello, Director of Admissions, Orleans Technical College. “We constantly meet women in our Building Maintenance program who almost didn’t enroll. Some are fresh out of high school and think it isn’t a woman's line of work. Others are career changers, like Gaynita, and hesitate to change jobs – questioning if they can make a viable career out of it. It’s a stereotype we’re working hard to eliminate.” As Gaynita worked on her mother’s home repair, she experienced an energy and zest for life she hadn’t felt since her illness… and, she says, perhaps even earlier than that.
A
Gaynita Reynolds, of Wynnefield Heights, looks forward to a building maintenance career offering her something different every day, as well as the opportunity to meet new people. “I realized I was comfortable in customer service, but that I was settling in terms of happiness,” said Gaynita. “The more I worked on the house, the more I followed my heart. I started seriously looking into getting training and making a life out of building maintenance.” Gaynita decided on Orleans Technical College’s Building Maintenance program – one of the most important factors being the hands-on experience Orleans Tech provided, versus the others that were mainly online. She began the course in February and looks forward to graduating in early August. “Many female students in our Building Maintenance program have doubts at first. But, once classes start they embrace the program and realize they made a fabulous choice,”
said Bill Madel, Orleans Tech Instructor. “We’re so glad Gaynita chose Orleans Tech – she’s the star of her class and has a very bright future. It’s an honor for us to have the opportunity to help nurture her ambition and build her skills and talents.” “I can’t say enough about Orleans Tech’s program,” said Gaynita. “I’ve gained experience, knowledge and skills that will add tremendous value to my life personally and professionally. I even conquered my fear of electricity!” Before graduation, Gaynita was interviewing for jobs, something Orleans Tech works to set-up with companies they have years of relationships with, and she expects at least one job offer soon. She hopes to eventually settle into employment with an apartment complex or small business. “Gaynita’s story is also important for young women and men newly graduated from high school and at a crossroads in terms of career pursuits,” said Bello. “Power comes from being open to ideas that you may not have considered before.” While Gaynita liked her old customer service job, she LOVES the prospects of the new career. In particular she looks forward to a building maintenance career offering her something different every day, as well as the opportunity to meet new people. “Older women can learn from me that it’s never too late to find your niche and pursue what makes you truly happy,” said Gaynita. “And ALL women should know you don’t have to be afraid to step out of the box and try something different – never assume because you are female that something isn’t available to you!” Orleans Technical College’s fall/winter Building Maintenance session begins August 3, with enrollment available until 7/31/15. The six-month program teaches diversified skills needed to maintain and renovate commercial and residential properties. Students are taught basic skills in electricity, carpentry, plumbing, heating and air conditioning maintenance. Training also includes painting, papering, and tiling. Information is available at OrleansTech.edu/our-programs. Thanks for reading City Suburban News every week!

Carrie Collins, JD Joins PCOM as Chief Advancement Officer hiladelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine (PCOM) has announced Carrie Collins, JD will join the College as Chief Advancement Officer. She begins her role August 10, 2015. Most recently, Ms. Collins served as the vice president for institutional advancement at University of the Sciences in Philadelphia. During her tenure at USciences, Ms. Collins had direct oversight of the office of Development and Alumni Relations. She drove the department’s advancement strategies by engaging in cultivation and significantly increasing solicitation across university constituents. She secured several major and planned gift commitments, and led the first major fundraising event on USciences’ campus, which well exceeded its financial goal. In March 2014, Ms. Collins was recognized as one of Philadelphia Business Journal’s “40 Under 40” for her fundraising success. Prior to her appointment at USciences, she served as executive director of gift planning and stewardship at Duquesne University, where she raised millions of dollars in gift commitments, built an effective and successful giftplanning operation and created an award-winning stewardship program for that institution. “Carrie’s proven track record of cultivating and maintaining relationships with alumni, and securing major gifts for institutions of higher education, makes her an ideal fit for the position of Chief Advancement Officer,” said Jay S. Feldstein, DO ’81, president and CEO of PCOM. Before joining higher education, Ms. Collins worked as an attorney in corporate practice, where she focused on start-up companies, venture capital financing, private placement debt and equity financing and issues related to formation, ownership structure and intellectual property. She received her bachelor’s degree from the University of Pittsburgh, a master’s degree from Duquesne University, and a juris doctor from the University of Pittsburgh School of Law. Ms. Collins and her husband Matthew live in Bala Cynwyd, PA with their two children, Vivian and Mitchell.

Parking will be available throughout the Suburban Square area. Learn more about National Night Out at www.nationalnightout.org.

he Delaware Valley Opera Company will present Puccini’s Tosca as the final production of their 2015 summer festival. Tosca premiered on January 14, 1900 with music by Giacomo Puccini and libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa. Beloved by audiences for his lush and memorable melodies, Puccini lends “verismo” (in Italian, “realism”) style to adapt French playwright Victorien Sardou’s 1887 drama titled La Tosca, which Puccini saw multiple times on tour in Europe. Though the original play was successful when it premiered, it has since fallen into obscurity. Puccini’s work, however, was immediately popular with audiences and re mains so to this day. Musical highlights include To s c a ’ s h e a r t wrenching aria “Vissi d’arte” in Act 2 and Cavaradossi’s “E lucevan le stelle” in Act 3. The story of Tosca follows several fictional characters who become entrenched in the very real political Soprano Laurice Kennel will sing the drama that surtitle in DVOC’s production of “Tosca.” rounded Rome at Photo/John Sturgis Photography the time. In May of 1800, Napoleon returned to Rome (at this point occupied by the Kingdom of Naples) where he had established a republic ruled by seven consuls in 1798. When the curtain rises on Act I, we learn that the man Tosca loves, the painter Mario Cavaradossi, is aiding one such former consul, Cesare Angelotti—who is now a wanted political prisoner being pursued by Chief of Police Baron Scarpia. When Scarpia realizes that the beautiful actress Floria Tosca is in love with Cavaradossi, he attempts to incite her jealousy by implying that her beloved may be involved in an affair with Angelotti’s sister, the Marchesa Attavanti. Believing that Tosca will lead him to both Cavaradossi and Angelotti, Scarpia has Tosca followed and is eventually successful in apprehending Cavaradossi—but not the fugitive Angelotti. How far will Tosca go to save the man she loves?

EDUCATION NEWS Philadelphia Corporation for Aging Offers Warning Signs of Heat Stress, Tips to Stay Cool Long Time Devon Prep Headmaster to Retire When you’re feeling the heat, this information could be a lifesaver haron Congleton, Philadelphia Corporation for Aging (PCA) health promotion nurse super visor, says that senior citizens, young children and people with chronic health conditions are at a greater risk heat-related illness, such as heat exhaustion or heat stress. “It is important for older adults to understand the dangers and potential complications that can occur from being exposed to severe heat. Older adults also need to know what they can do to prevent heat stress from occurring,” she said. Following are hot weather safety tips from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and PCA’s Sharon Congleton: Know when to ask for help. Symptoms of heat stress can include: loss of energy, loss of appetite, upset stomach, lightheadedness, prickly heat, heat cramps, heavy sweating, thirst, feeling faint, giddiness, confusion and/or nausea. If you or someone you know experiences one or more of these symptoms, move to a cool location and rest. Drink more fluids and remove any excess clothing. Call 911, if symptoms include any of the following: lack of sweat; combative behavior; hot, dry, flushed skin; body temperature of 105 degrees or above; throbbing headache; rapid heartbeat or breathing; convulsions; staggering; loss of consciousness; and/or confusion. Check on elderly and homebound neighbors. Make sure they have enough to drink and check the conditions inside the home; fans should not be used inside a home with windows closed; this circulates hot air and creates a convection oven effect. To avoid heat stress and dehydration: Drink lots of water. Even if you’re not thirsty, drink a glass of cold water every 15 to 20 minutes. Avoid caffeine and alcohol which can cause your body to lose water; in hot weather, it is easy to become dehydrated, which is very dangerous to your health. Stay cool. Turn on the air conditioning – don’t try to save on energy bills during a heat wave. If you don’t have air conditioning, go somewhere that is air-conditioned, like a neighbor’s house, senior center, public library or shopping mall. If you can’t get out of the house, stay on a lower floor, where it’s cooler and open the windows. Use a fan only if the outside air is cooler than the inside air, and do not use a fan with the windows closed. Also, keep curtains or blinds closed during daylight hours to block out the sun. Take a cool shower or bath, which can be more effective at cooling you down than using a fan. Dress cool by wearing loose, light-colored clothing, which allows air to circulate and helps the body throw off heat. Also, wear a wide-brimmed hat outside. Avoid the sun. Sunburn affects your body’s ability to cool itself and causes loss of fluids. If you must be outdoors, apply sunblock with SPF 15 or greater. Stay in shaded areas when possible or use an umbrella. Best of all, plan outdoor activities in the early morning or evenings, when the sun is not as strong and temperatures are cooler. Pace yourself. Rest often in cool or shaded areas. Also, limit physical activity during periods of high heat and sun. Eat lightly. Avoid hot foods and heavy meals. Use your stove and oven less to keep room temperatures lower. If you must heat food, use a microwave. Add cool foods to your diet, like watermelon, cantaloupe, Jell-O or other fruits. For information on PCA’s services and programs, call the PCA Helpline at 215-765-9040 or visit www.pcaCares.org.

fter more than 20 years at the helm of Devon Preparatory School, Rev. James J. Shea, Sch.P., will be stepping down as headmaster of the allboys college preparatory school on July 31, 2015, announced Rev. Fernando Negro, Sch.P. provincial of the Piarist Fathers USA/Puerto Rico Province. Rev. Shea, 67, has been headmaster of Devon Prep since 1994. He leaves behind a legacy that has seen in creased enrollment as well as improvements in campus facilities and curriculum. “Father Shea is the longest tenured Headmaster in the school’s history, and Devon Prep has flourished under his leadership,” said Rev. Negro in a letter to Devon Prep parents, alumni and trustees. “The entire Devon Prep community and the Order of the Piarist Fathers are indebted to Fr. Shea for his unceasing and tireless dedication and service to Devon, its students and their families.” A 1966 graduate of Devon Prep, Rev. Shea has spent much of his life Rev. James J. Shea, Sch.P. will retire as headmaster at the school, first as a student then of Devon Prep on July 31. as a teacher, assistant headmaster and headmaster. Under his leadership Devon Prep established a Board of Trustees, constructed its first new building in 40 years, established a full-time college guidance program, expanded the music and art programs, maintained the school’s secure financial position and enhanced the Pro-Life and Christian Action Programs. In addition, while serving as headmaster, Rev. Shea taught physics and calculus in the upper school. “I feel truly blessed to have had such a long and rewarding career as the chief administrator of this wonderful school,” Rev. Shea said. “As I look back on the 21 years I have been privileged to serve here as headmaster, I do so with the realization that the reason the school has enjoyed success for all those years lies not in my own abilities, but in the kind support of all the Devon Prep family. By working together,” Rev. Shea continued, “we have touched the lives of so many young men by providing them with a first rate education, a nurturing Catholic environment where young boys make the critical transition from boyhood to manhood, and a superb foundation for college and for life beyond. It has been an awesome experience.” Father Shea will be named Headmaster Emeritus and remain a member of the Devon Prep faculty. Rev. Negro also announced that Rev. Francisco Aisa, Sch.P. has been appointed the new Headmaster of Devon Prep effective August 1, 2015. Devon Prep is a private, Catholic, college preparatory school for young men in grades six to 12, conducted by the Piarist Fathers. Devon Prep students hail from Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Bucks counties as well as parts of Philadelphia. The school’s Main Line campus sits on 20 acres on North Valley Forge Road in Devon, PA. For information about Devon Prep, visit www.devonprep.com.

Beyond Kindergarten Mixer, the Museum’s Books to Know, Books to Grow program, Summer Reading Initiative, Please Write Project and Passport to Kindergarten round out the Museum’s efforts to help families transition into kindergarten and provide resources to assist them through the process of starting school.

Winterthur Scientist Heads International Team Discovering Why Matisse’s Brilliant Yellow Fading Scientists Announce Findings in “Applied Physics A” and Issue Call for New Protocols n international team of scientists, led by Winterthur Museum’s Senior Scientist Jennifer Mass, Ph.D., has announced new findings on why a bright yellow pigment favored a century ago by master artists like Henri Matisse fades to drab beige. The study, published in the June 2015 issue of Applied Physics A, calls for the development of international protocols to identify and help preserve “at risk” paintings. The research team found that the original chemical compound, cadmium sulphide, which is highly water-insoluble and bright yellow, is subject to a light-induced oxidation process that transforms it into a colorless, water soluble cadmium sulphate. The cadmium yellow favored by Impressionist, post-Impressionist, and early modernist masters poses a risk to many masterpieces of our cultural heritage, the study notes. “The results of this study reveal how critical it is to understand not only the chemistry of the discolored paint, but also the chemistry used to prepare the paints that were available to the turn of the 20th-century’s most enduring artists,” said Mass, Senior Scientist at Winterthur’s Scientific Research and Analysis Laboratory and Associate Professor at the Winterthur/University of Delaware Program in Art Conservation. “Our study points the way toward several important areas requiring further investigation, among the most critical of which is developing a protocol for identifying the ‘at risk’ paintings that are in their earliest stages of degradation, even before it is visible to the naked eye, so that such works can be placed in the proper display environments that will prevent their degradation from worsening.” The team employed a combination of sensitive, state-of-the-art methods of investigation based on synchrotron radiation at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility. These included X-ray diffraction, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, X-ray fluorescence analysis, and infrared microscopy. Although the study focused on pigments from Matisse’s “The Joy of Life” at the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, it also presented contributing evidence from earlier investigations with the ESRF on works by masters such as Matisse, James Ensor, and Vincent Van Gogh. “As a chemist, I find it striking that in paintings of different artists and different geographical origins that (presumably) were conserved for circa 100 years in various museum conditions, very similar chemical transformations are taking place,” said Koen Janssens, Chemistry Professor at the University of Antwerp in Belgium. “This will allow us to predict with higher confidence what may be happening to these works of art in the coming decades.” The ESRF noted there has been a growing realization among museum scientists over the past decade that this disfiguring phenomenon is affecting billions of dollars of our global cultural heritage. Mass said the findings aid in understanding how to digitally restore damaged paintings and create a computer-generated image that reveals the artists’ original intent. “When we combine our findings on the works of Henri Matisse with the studies carried out on works by Vincent Van Gogh and James Ensor, the understanding of their degradation gives us a road map to guide us in the preservation of these works,” Mass said. “It also provides us with the information needed to digitally restore the damaged paintings, creating a computer-generated image that reveals the artists’ original intent.” The newly published article is “2D X-ray and FTIR micro-analysis of the degradation of cadmium yellow pigment in paintings of Henri Matisse,” E. Pouyet, M. Cotte, B. Fayard, M. Salomé, F. Meirer, A. Mehta, E.S. Uffelman, A. Hull, F. Vanmeert, J. Kieffer, M. Burghammer, K. Janssens, F. Sette, J.

Under a Crescent Moon at Laurel Hill Cemetery Summer Open House and Veteran’s Night of Illumination aurel Hill Cemetery takes on another aura as the sun sets and nighttime envelopes the grounds. Though the Cemetery is often open for evening tours and special events, the opportunity for a general visit and exploration is rare. Join for a Summer Open House where the cemetery will open the gates after-hours and invite attendees to simply enjoy the North Section of the Cemetery grounds. Have a BYOB picnic, peruse our gift shop, take-in some night photography or simply walk around. Visitors can also view the cemetery’s special illumination display for veterans buried at Laurel Hill. About the Illumination: Laurel Hill Cemetery contains over 1,400 known men and women who gave service to our nation, ranging from the Revolutionary War to Desert Storm. During this Summer Open House, the cemetery will honor those veterans with a candle lit at their gravesides. For many this will be the first time they are honored since the day they were buried. Visitors will have an opportunity to stroll through the grounds as the sun wanes in the sky, and give tribute and thanks to each of those who took up arms to defend the United States. A general tour detailing some of those veterans will be offered. The Open House and Illumination will take place on Saturday, August 1 from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m., with check-in at Laurel Hill Cemetery’s Gatehouse entrance at 3822 Ridge Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19132. Free parking is located in the lot across the street from the Gatehouse. The cost is $12/person. Tickets can be purchased at the door, in advance by phone 215-228-8200 or online at www.thelaurelhillcemetery.org.

Fifteen Devon Prep students and three chaperons recently participated in a week-long Mission Trip to help the needy in Cumberland, Maryland. The participants are, from left – Mr. Mike Noonan of Broomall, Junior Michael Noonan of Broomall, Junior Willson Camp of Spring City, Devon Prep Teacher Mr. Joe Lewis of Exton, Juniors Paul Yoo of King of Prussia, Zachary Eidman of Collegeville, Mitchell Young of Springfield, William Schultheis of Ardmore, Jack Wagner of West Chester, Tyler Keough of Collegeville, Kevin Holmes of Ardmore, and Jacob Klick of Wynnewood, Eighth Grader Dylan Smoot of West Chester, Junior Christopher McAlee of West Chester, Junior Brandon Smoot West Chester, Sophomore James Costello of Rosemont, Senior Andrew Barella of Lansdale and Mr. Sam Young of Springfield. lthough they began their summer vacation several weeks ago 15 Devon Prep students, and three adult chaperons, opted to interrupt their break to help those in need. The young men recently spent a week on a Mission Trip in Cumberland, Maryland organized by Devon Prep Teacher Mr. Joe Lewis through Catholic HEART Workcamp (http://heartworkcamp.com/). Cumberland is one of the country’s poorest areas in per capita income. They spent their evenings at Bishop Walsh School sleeping on classroom floors in sleeping bags and on air mattresses. They spent their days working with teens from around the country on a variety of projects and tasks which included painting (interior and exterior), cleaning, food distribution, helping area churches and outreach centers, landscaping, repair work, and building a wheelchair ramp. The mayor of Cumberland even had the crew of the teenagers landscaping, cleaning, and weeding some public locations. The mayor personally issued certificates for a job well-done to members of the crew that worked for him, including Devon Prep Junior Brandon Smoot of West Chester. At one time Cumberland was the second largest city in Maryland (behind Baltimore) and was proudly given the nickname “Queen City.” Unfortunately, like many areas in the Appalachia that had always counted on such energy producing industries like coal and oil as well as steel, iron ore, glass, and other manufacturing industries, Cumberland and the people there have fallen on difficult times over the last several decades. At the end of the week many of the residents expressed their thanks and gratitude for the work that had been done by the teens. According to Lewis, “Our students really showed what it means to be hardworking, polite and cooperative. They were courteous and showed a willingness to help,” he said. “Many of the residents were moved to tears in offering their appreciation. It gave each of us a profound sense of accomplishment in knowing we had helped so many people in need.” Catholic Heart Workcamp is a non-profit organization established to offer quality service projects and evangelical programs for Catholic young people and their leaders. Their mission is twofold: first, to share the love of Jesus and serve the neglected, brokenhearted and marginalized; second, to empower participants to live as Disciples of Christ through serving others. For information, contact Devon Prep at 610-688-7337 or visit www.devonprep.com.
