The Barbie Movie The Barbie Movie What is it about the Barbie Movie that is creating so much attention? KristenMeyer / Tuesday, October 17, 2023 0 9095 Ok. So we clearly had a lot of fun showing the Barbie Movie in Rayburn Hall on Friday. The pre-party was a hoot! The energy our residents brought to the event was palpable. It's a fun movie, but since I'm blogging on a website for a Senior Community, I thought I might dig deeper and my attention went to the bench scene. Academy award winning, fashion designer, Ann Roth, meets Barbie on a bench where Barbie looks at this elderly woman and says, "you're beautiful," and Ann Roth responds, "I know it." There it is!!! Women talking to each other through generations. Barbie's decision to leave Barbieland and embrace the discomforts of the human experience and to see beauty in aging are some of the themes in the movie. There was magic in the air on friday as we drank pink cocktails, ate pink popcorn, and enjoyed each other as modern women living in challenging times. Read more
Lynne Standish / Friday, October 9, 2020 / Categories: Clark Meadows Blog The story of the Mercury 7 This week, one of our residents presented a very interesting story about Space activity for the last 60 years. His PowerPoint was presented to others who were captivated during the hour long talk. Starting with President Kennedy's challenge to the country in 1961 that "before this decade is out, we will land a man on the Moon and return him safely to the Earth", the lecture went on to review the country's response to this challenge. Starting with the story of the Mercury 7, the original class of 7 astronauts that led to the Mercury Project. This was followed by several more classes of astronauts to include the Gemini Project, followed by the Apollo Project. The 11th Apollo flight culminated in meeting the challenge with Neil Armstrong walking on the moon and the safe return of the crew of 3 astronauts safely back to earth. Today we have the International Space Station that has been in Earth orbit for more than 20 continuous years of operation. The residents are still talking about this lecture.
