New Providence Presbyterian Church

On May 26th, John Tomaszewski will explore the profound biological and philosophical bridge between the objective world and our subjective experience. He will examine how the brain doesn't merely "record" reality like a camera but rather constructs it through a complex process of predictive coding and sensory integration. By deconstructing the neural pathways that translate raw physical data into the vivid landscape of our thoughts and perceptions, we can better understand the mental frameworks that define our professional and personal lives. John was a long-time employee at Dun &amp; Bradstreet in computers and engineering and served as director of Marketing Information Systems. Since joining Old Guard, he has become deeply interested in AI and using AI chat-bots to explore the mysteries of the world.
The Summit Area Old Guard is a social, educational, and recreational fellowship of active men of retirement age, founded in 1930. We hear presentations most Tuesday mornings in an auditorium in New Providence, and we have many other activities including discussion groups, sports and outdoor groups, and celebrations. Our dues are minimal, and members volunteer for all aspects of the operation. Our motto is "Come for the programs. Stay for the friends." Guests are always welcome to attend and to learn about our organization.
Coming up in June: See our Tuesday programs posted on our website <a href="https://summitoldguard.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://summitoldguard.org</a> .

Guiding Smart Moves With Real Numbers and Strategy

Laura Deutsch - Realtor at Keller Williams

Buying or selling a home is a big decision, and it shouldn’t feel rushed, confusing, or transactional. I believe it should feel informed, intentional, and fully supported from start to finish. I’m a New Jersey–based real estate agent who specializes in helping buyers and sellers navigate today’s market with clarity and confidence. Many of my clients are families and professionals who know what they want next, but need help understanding how to get there strategically. Whether that means moving up, moving closer to town, or deciding if staying put actually makes more sense, my role is to guide you through real options using real data. What sets my approach apart is a focus on education and strategy. I don’t believe in pressure or one-size-fits-all advice. I take the time to understand your goals, walk you through the numbers, and help you evaluate decisions based on facts rather than assumptions. That includes collaborating closely with trusted local partners, from lenders to inspectors, so nothing feels like a guess. I’m deeply connected to the communities I serve and pride myself on knowing not just the market, but the nuances of each town, neighborhood, and lifestyle. My clients value honesty, responsiveness, and a process that feels thoughtful and organized. If you’re looking for a real estate experience that’s grounded, transparent, and tailored to how you actually live, I’d love to connect.
