MSfit Opens For People Living with multiple sclerosis
Opening statement on landing page:
A young man’s vision and the collaboration between WSSU’s Department of Physical Therapy and the Gateway YWCA have come together to form MSfit, a free fitness and wellness program offered to people living with MS.

It was the brainchild of WSSU alumni and former WSSU employee Brian Murrill, whose mother Patsy Murrill is living with multiple sclerosis. She was diagnosed in 1995. She is a teacher at North Hills Elementary School.
"It's been a challenging yet rewarding experience seeing this program come together. I originally came up with this concept in January of 2013 to honor my mother. My original goal was to create a program that would directly address the physical and emotional needs of people living with MS,” said Brian. He said since then his organization has developed key partnerships with the Gateway YWCA, National MS Society, and the WSSU Department of Physical Therapy.
Here is his view of the future for the program. “Today we have three main objectives: the first one is to provide the MS community with a free fitness and wellness program that is designed to improve the quality of life of our participants and their families. The second one is to take the results from our program and share them with physicians to better understand the role fitness and wellness plays in managing MS. The last one is to create an opportunity for graduate level PT students to get hands on experience working with our participants. MS is the most common disabling neurological disease of young adults in the U.S. It is our hope to grow this program and improve the overall quality of life of as many participants as we can. When you support MSfit, you are empowering people to move beyond their MS by giving them the knowledge, skills, tools and confidence to adopt healthy lifestyle behaviors, actively co-manage their disease and live their best lives through health and wellness," Brian said.
The MSFit clinic is a free clinic where screenings occur for multiple sclerosis patients, along with development of an exercise program, and education on the exercise protocol for the clients at the YWCA.
MSfit officially opened its doors to participants January 26th at the Gateway YWCA, in Winston-Salem, NC, from 1-5 p.m. Since MSfit announced the launch of the program in October, it has received an overwhelming response from potential participants.
Prior to beginning the program, participants are required to complete an initial fitness screening that will gauge their level of ability. The screenings were conducted by the Winston-Salem State University Department of Physical Therapy (PT).
Dr. Sara Migliarese, a physical therapy professor at WSSU, said, “The WSSU Department of Physical Therapy is excited about the partnership with MSfit. Our third-year students performed the fitness screenings and developed exercise programs for the clients with MS based on their abilities.”
“Under the supervision of DPT faculty, the students will educate each client on safe and effective exercise using the YWCA facilities, classes, and equipment. This service-learning opportunity will benefit the students, as well as the clients, and the WSSU PT Club is already involved in early fundraising activities to help support the MSfit Foundation and cover the cost of the YWCA memberships for the MS clients. WSSU is committed to the success and sustainability of this community service,” Migliarese continued.
As a part of their coursework, the WSSU Department of PT will return to the Gateway YWCA once a month to reevaluate participants and document their successes.

The Soviet space program comprised the rocketry and space exploration programs conducted by the former Soviet Union (USSR) from the 1930s until its dissolution in 1991. Over its sixty-year history, this primarily classified military program was responsible for a number of pioneering accomplishments in space flight.
Taught by Hofstra business and education students, the program was launched in several Long Island school districts in the fall of 2011, and has served more than 1,700 fourth-and fifth-graders so far. The curriculum, designed by Hofstra and Capital One, teaches basic money management concepts and skills.

Penn Theatre Arts Program
Spring 2016 Mainstage Production
April 7–10, 2016
@ Penn Museum
'The Eumenides' is the third play in Aeschylus’ great masterpiece, the tragic trilogy 'The Oresteia,' written more than 2,500 years ago. In response to the pleadings of his sister Electra and at the command of the god Apollo, Orestes has murdered his mother, Clytemnestra, who was wife and murderer of his father Agamemnon. As a consequence, Orestes finds himself tormented by the terrible Furies, hideous ancient goddesses of the underworld divinely charged with punishing blood murders. Guests follow the actors through Penn Museum’s third floor galleries.
Directed by Marcia Ferguson and featuring original music by composer Patrick Lamborn, this production is performed in collaboration with the University of Pennsylvania Theatre Arts Program’s Artistic Resident for 2016, Sebastienne Mundheim/White Box Theatre, who created the production design, with additional support from the Provost’s Interdisciplinary Arts fund.

*ROBERTO LOYOLA VERA DIO EL BANDERAZO DE ARRANQUE DEL PROGRAMA “DÍA LIBRE
¡NOS VEMOS EN LA CALLE!”*
• *En el arranque de este programa se tuvo una afluencia de poco más de
siete mil personas de todas las edades*
• *El próximo 4 de noviembre este programa se llevará también a la
Delegación Santa Rosa Jáuregui*
Al dar arranque al Programa “Día Libre, ¡Nos Vemos en la Calle!”, el
Presidente Municipal de Querétaro, Roberto Loyola Vera, destacó la
importancia de que los habitantes de este Municipio “tengan los domingos un
verdadero día libre, que sea la calle un punto de encuentro, donde tejamos
comunidad, lo cual sin duda garantiza el grandioso futuro que merece
Querétaro”.
Explicó que con este programa, que inicia desde Luis Pasteur hasta Ejército
Republicano y que alcanza los 3.2 kilómetros de longitud, se busca tener
un ejercicio gubernamental complementario, transversal, que permita que
éste sea realmente un ejercicio de integración y de generación de tejido
social y de comunidad, para que todos los integrantes de una familia
encuentren alguna actividad que satisfaga su inquietud.
Acompañado de funcionarios municipales, de su esposa Lucy Huber y de sus
hijos Carlota, Antonio y María Andrea, el Alcalde Capitalino dijo que con
este programa el domingo se convierte “en un espacio donde nosotros hagamos
lo que nos plazca, que tengamos realmente un día libre y que sea un punto
de encuentro para los que tenemos la fortuna de vivir en este maravillo
Municipio”.
En este sentido, precisó que “Día Libre, ¡Nos Vemos en la Calle!” también
se llevará a las siete Delegaciones, anunciando que el próximo 4 de
noviembre se implementará este ejercicio en Santa Rosa Jáuregui; ya que
–resaltó- las Delegaciones tienen derecho a tener las mismas prestaciones y
las mismas políticas públicas o programas que se aplican en el Centro
Histórico.
“Tradicionalmente todo se impulsa para que suceda en el Centro Histórico y
esto no es equitativo ni obedece a un acto de justicia social”, manifestó
Roberto Loyola Vera, durante el arranque de este programa en el que se tuvo
una afluencia de poco más de siete mil personas desde las 8:00 hasta las
13:00 horas que dura el programa.
El Presidente Municipal recorrió el circuito que comprende Día Libre, en
donde saludó a los adultos mayores del grupo Máquina 501, de la Delegación
Felipe Carrillo Puerto, quienes le compartieron que practican la activación
física. Posteriormente, en el mismo trayecto, visitó el módulo del
Instituto Municipal de la Juventud, que contaba con una gran manta que se
utilizó como foro de expresión y graffiti para la gente que iba pasando.
En este espacio el Alcalde Roberto Loyola Vera y su esposa Lucy Huber, así
como el Delegado del Centro Histórico José Niembro, y los Secretarios de
Servicios Públicos y de Seguridad Pública, Gustavo Zepeda y Juan Marcos
Granados, respectivamente, plasmaron algunos mensajes.
En el módulo del Instituto de Cultura, observó los bailables de Huapango y
Chiapanecos que ofreció el Ballet Folklórico del Municipio de Querétaro.
Asimismo, visitó el módulo de la Coordinación de Accesibilidad y Desarrollo
para Personas con Discapacidad, en donde observó actividades de ajedrez en
braille y una muestra fotográfica de hazañas deportivas de gente con
discapacidad.
Las personas con discapacidad también realizaron un baile y basquetbol en
sillas de ruedas, con el objetivo de hacer conciencia sobre el trabajo y
necesidades de este sector de la población. Es de destacar que el
Presidente Municipal utilizó una silla de ruedas para jugar basquetbol.
En su momento, el Director del Instituto Municipal del Deporte y la
Recreación, Luis Carlos Hurtado Salinas, detalló que en este programa se
incluirán temas de accesibilidad, cultura y juventud; por lo que se cuenta
con la participación del Instituto de Cultura, de Accesibilidad, la
Secretaría de Seguridad Pública y la Secretaria de Servicios Públicos
Municipales.
Explicó que hoy se inicia con este programa, pero todos los domingos la
población en general podrá venir a disfrutar de este espacio con toda la
familia, ya que su objetivo es promover la convivencia, la comunicación, la
cohesión y la acción social.
En “Día Libre, ¡Nos Vemos en la Calle!”, se ofrecen actividades tales como
ajedrez para débiles visuales, basquetbol en silla de ruedas, actividad de
Cross Fit, mini cancha de futbol, baile folklórico, entre otras.

I love the Program Guy, mostly becase of his kick-ass high socks. I think he's the only kid on staff who makes this kind of effort.
