Our construction company has made very good progress with the project to date. You can see the progress in the photos which are regularly updated here.
The project is under considerable financial pressure and we are asking for your support as a club member. Our aim in this fundraising initiative is to raise £75,000 from our 420 plus club members. We are tracking progress on a thermometer at the club and on our website.
The reason for the financial pressures are firstly that we failed to secure access to our building from the car park at the rear. It is therefore going to take longer and be more expensive to carry out the project with access only from Banbury Road. Secondly, there have been some unforeseeable costs which relate to the foundations of the south wall and part of the original social area of the building which turned out to have inadequate foundations. There are also some areas where our ambitions have encountered higher than forecast costs, for example to provide for a high standard of audio-visual equipment.
We welcome contributions of any size. There are multiple ways in which members can support the club financially:
There is a significant benefit to the club if members sign up for Foundation Life Membership. A donation of £1,000 or more (ticking the gift aid box adds 25% to the value of the donation) allows a member to become a Foundation Life Member and get free annual membership for life. Such members will be listed on a board at the club to acknowledge their generosity.
We are happy to receive donations direct into the charity's bank account. For direct donations please don't hesitate to contact the chairman (firstname.lastname@example.com) or the treasurer (firstname.lastname@example.com) who will be very happy to help.
You may also contribute via our Just Giving page. The Just Giving organisation help by carrying the burden of much of the administration and also allow anonymous donations to be made. Have a look at the page about Oxford Bridge Club at Just Giving by clicking the logo:
or go straight to the donation page for Oxford Bridge Club to make a donation.
NB: If you simply search the JustGiving website for "Oxford Bridge Club", don't click on the first entry under "Charities", but scroll down to the "Campaigns" section and click on the "Restoration of Oxford Bridge Club" entry to take you to the correct page.
As with all fundraising schemes, we would wish for as many members as possible to make the best contribution that they are able to give, as we are not seeking donations from outside the membership itself. Please don't forget to sign up to gift aid if this is applicable to you, as this increases your contribution significantly!
Thank you for supporting your club in any way you can, and if you cannot support it financially, thank you for being a member. A particular thank you to those that have already made a donation.

Anaheim's Hiller is first Swiss NHL All-Star goalie
ANAHEIM — Jonas Hiller has become the first Swiss goalie to make an NHL All-Star team.
Hiller and Ducks right wing Corey Perry have been selected for the All-Star game in Raleigh, North Carolina, on Jan. 30. Hiller is also the only netminder from the Western Conference chosen this year.
"I don't know who picked that, or if there's a reason behind it, but I'm excited to go from the West," Hiller said after Tuesday's practice at Honda Center.
Hiller has tirelessly kept the Ducks competitive this season, ranking second in the NHL with 21 wins while facing more shots and making more saves and appearances than any goalie. He's third in the league in save percentage, and he heads into Wednesday's home game against St. Louis riding back-to-back shutouts of Columbus and San Jose.
"Our goalie has been probably the strongest part of our hockey club from day one," coach Randy Carlyle said. "He has played huge, huge minutes for us, and he saw a lot of pucks early. I don't know if that got him warmed up for the season, but he's done a great job."
Hiller also is just the second NHL All-Star from Switzerland, following defenseman Mark Streit of the New York Islanders in 2009. Not bad for a goalie who wasn't drafted by an NHL club and spent several years in the top Swiss league before catching North American scouts' attention while playing alongside Joe Thornton and Rick Nash with HC Davos during the NHL lockout.
Hiller's roommate on the road is Perry, who leads the Ducks with 21 goals and 45 points, ranking ninth in the NHL in scoring. Perry, who made his only other All-Star team in 2008, also scored during Canada's win over the U.S. in the gold-medal game at the Vancouver Olympics.
"It's exciting to be a part of it, and it will be a fun week," Perry said. "It's an honor."
Perry also isn't worried about the possibility of playing against his roommate under this year's All-Star game format. The captains will choose teams earlier in the All-Star weekend.
"We do that all the time in practice, and this game isn't a practice, but it's not a real game, either," Perry said.
Captain Ryan Getzlaf, a two-time All-Star, wasn't chosen for the game while recovering from broken bones in his face. Getzlaf had 37 points in 40 games before a deflected puck hit him in the forehead, resulting in injuries likely to keep him out until early February.
Teemu Selanne also wasn't chosen despite scoring 37 points in 36 games this season, but the 40-year-old Finnish Flash is grateful to have the long weekend off.

Veronica Magan G'12August 1, 2013
"Everything I learned during my year at Newhouse I am applying in my current job."
Veronica Magan graduated from the magazine, newspaper and online journalism (MNO) master's program in 2012.
What are you doing now? I am the managing editor of Via Satellite, a business-to-business magazine published by Access Intelligence.
How did you land your current job? Last July, I found the community editor position through JournalismJobs.com. I applied, got selected and started working by the end of that month. In December, the managing editor position became available and my supervisor offered me the post. I hadn't even thought about applying because I was so new to the company. However, both my supervisor and the publisher of the magazine liked my work so far and had faith in me.
What are your responsibilities at your current job? I put all the pieces together to form each new issue of the magazine every month. I follow up with the writers to make sure they meet the deadlines, and take turns with the editor and assistant editor to edit the stories. I work with InCopy to start placing all the stories in the respective layouts and then work closely with the designer to make sure every detail of the layout and art looks good both for the print and digital editions. After it's all placed, and looking ready to go, I sign off on the issue so it can go to the printer. I also make sure our freelance writers get paid in time according to our budget.
Additionally, I work on our e-letters, editing the stories and placing them on our CMS in the correct layout. We have a daily e-letter and monthly e-letters. I am also responsible for updating our website with new original content every day. I write some of it, edit the rest and publish it. I also update our social media profiles.
Finally, once a year, I manage a daily publication during a four-day-long event organized by Access Intelligence. It is the largest event in the satellite industry and we produce print and digital editions.
How do you feel Newhouse prepared you for your current job? Everything I learned during my year at Newhouse I am applying as managing editor, from working with the CMS and HTML, to editing stories, to working on the design of the magazine. It has been so rewarding to get positive feedback from my supervisor after I apply or suggest innovative ideas I learned at Newhouse.
What does your program offer students? It prepared us to improve journalism. With so many changes happening in the way we produce and consume news, journalism needs more people prepared to handle these changes and use them in the right way to push our profession in the right direction. This is something my program absolutely offered its students. It prepared us in all possible aspects to tackle all challenges in the publishing industry.
Explain what the summer boot camp experience was like. It was a wonderful introduction to the program. It leveled those students like me who had no journalism background with those who did. It put us all in—sort of—the same playing field. It was exhausting but extremely helpful.
In your experience, in what ways do the professors at Newhouse mentor students? Professors treated us like fellow journalists and colleagues. This is why their mentoring was so natural. Every question was important. I genuinely felt their interest in helping me become better and accomplish more.
Describe your most valuable and significant experiences during your time at Newhouse. This program opened doors for me. I learned so much, made such wonderful friends and found that my teachers cared about me like family while I was away from home. I really can't single out specific situations during that year because all together it was one of the best experiences of my life.
Is there a professor that you would recommend to incoming students, and why? I would definitely recommend Emilie Davis. She was one of the most important mentors I had in Newhouse and I still consider her as such. Also, Claudia Strong opened my eyes to even more possibilities within my field and her news design class taught me many of the skills I believe have helped me succeed at my job.
What advice would you give to an incoming student? It's just one year so work really hard and absorb as much as you can. This is the time to get out of your comfort zone and discover what you are really good at. I would also recommend the internship (NEW 535).
If you could redo your time at Newhouse, what would you do differently? I would have taken some different classes. Now that I'm working in this position, I wish I had taken newspaper editing to complement magazine editing.
What was your favorite thing to do outside of class? Go to Wegmans. I love supermarkets.
Looking back at your free time at Newhouse, please list your favorite:
Restaurant: Empire Brewery
Summer Event/Activity: Going to lakes in the area
Winter Event/Activity: Taking photos

The newest and largest residence hall at the University of Colorado Boulder will welcome students next week.
Williams Village East, a 178,000-square-foot facility that will house 705 students on its seven floors once the year begins, boasts sustainable features, gaming equipment and a new model of bathrooms that will give students more privacy.
The university had a few goals in mind when designing the building, a process that started more than three years ago. Staff wanted to maximize the use of the site, thus leading to design for the biggest residence hall at CU Boulder, and also make the building more sustainable than nearby Williams Village North, according to Heidi Roge, project manager for housing at the university.
Roge oversaw the design and construction of the building, which finished on time in July and slightly under budget. Alm2s of Fort Collins and KWK Architects of St. Louis, were the lead architects for the building.
While the dormitory was originally slated to house 550 freshmen and cost $60 million, the final proposal to the university system's Board of Regents was $96.7 million for the building to house 705.
The additional space will let CU Boulder convert Athens North residence hall back to graduate student housing, which is something graduate students sought.
The CU Independent previously reported that students who live at Williams Village are less likely to graduate than those who don't, but the university said the latest retention information shows a promising trend.
While it will take time to get more recent four-year graduation data, the retention rate for freshmen returning for a second fall semester has increased by 5 percentage points since 2014, nearly closing the gap with retention rates on the main campus, according to university spokesman Ryan Huff.
"We are proud of the programs we offer at Williams Village and they continue to grow," Huff said, adding that the university has added a dining complex, a satellite office for Health & Wellness Services, the Startup Hub and Academic Success & Achievement Program to increase retention. "We are bringing services to our residents, and that will become increasingly important because our Williams Village population will grow this fall to about 3,600 students."
Four first-year seminars since 2018 also have been located at Williams Village, he said, with the goal ofincreasing "a sense of belonging and feeling welcome."
"We believe these additional services, as well as other factors, have contributed to better retention rates for Williams Village residents," Huff said.
Focus on gaming, new bathroom design
The building is divided into color-coded wings to make it easier for students to find their way. The wings also designate the group of about 35 students who will fall under the same resident advisor. Students can request several different room styles, and the costs fall within the range of other residence halls at the university, from $7,389 to $8,393 per semester..
"We design with cost in mind, to try to keep costs down," Roge said.
Williams Village East also debuts a new design for bathrooms. Community bathrooms are now designed to have private stalls, which each include a shower, toilet and sink. They also are now open for all genders.
While the new model is more expensive, Roge said, students had been requesting more privacy.
The main level space features a community center that will be staffed by students who will greet other students round the clock, creating a sense of community, Roge said. It also includes a student kitchen for those who want to cook, and a living room area.
It also features a gaming area, complete with large televisions that will be hooked up to a Sony PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch, and an area where students will be able to connect computers to monitors and compete against each other in e-gaming tournaments. There also are some "analog" games, such as table tennis.
The goal is to get students out of their rooms and doing things with the community, Roge said.
Katie Theiler, associate director of communications for student affairs, said some research shows that e-gaming can have a positive effect on students' learning abilities.
A 2017 study published in the journal Psychological Bulletin found that playing video games can increase cognition and attention, among other things.
The east courtyard is designed to be more like a park, with poles for hammock hanging and proximity to Bear Creek and a bike path. There are covered vertical bike racks, which can hold 50% more bikes, and Wi-Fi for students who want to study outside.
Sustainable design
One feature Roge highlighted again and again was the numerous windows placed around the residence hall to add more natural light to the space. Many of the windows also have electrochromic glazing, which means the panes are electrified and adjust the shading depending on the time of day and year. This saves energy by either reducing or allowing in more heat depending on the season.
The east courtyard also features a pond that doubles as a sustainable way to get water for the Williams Village Campus. Until 2011, CU Boulder irrigated with potable water. Now, it uses ditch water, which comes from snowmelt, saving 13 million gallons of water per year, according to Roge.
"This could've been very austere, just this ugly place where ditch water sat," said JT Allen, director of facilities for Housing and Dining Services.
But, with the work of the design committee, Allen said, it's a beautiful area accessible to students.
The dormitory rooms also have sustainable features. When students open their windows, it releases a magnet that turns off the heating or cooling systems, which should save about $80,000 annually, Roge said. There also is a vacancy sensor that turns off lights when students leave and turns down the heating or cooling levels, she said.
A black switch also serves to turn off "phantom loads," or electronics that are left plugged in even when not in use and consume electricity. The building will have a competition in October that teaches students about phantom loads and challenges them to reduce use from September levels. In other buildings, Roge said they've seen a 30% reduction in energy usage during the competition, and an additional 20% reduction throughout the year.
Roge's favorite feature is a two-story student lounge, which will connect the fourth and fifth floors and hopefully "build community" between them, she said. The windows have sunshades, which are designed to block heat in the summer and welcome it in the winter.

Sheila Fernando:
A gentle person with tranquil mind
Lilith Miriam Sheila Fernando (Nee Henry) passed away on April 12 on the same land she was born on 97 years ago in Bambalapitiya, Colombo. Sheila is now reunited with her parents, Gerard and Magdalene Henry, brother Merl, and sisters, Collinette (Colline) and Daria. Her loving husband of many years, Gordon, survives her.
At an early age, with the premature death of her father, Sheila was put in a position of helping her mother raise her younger siblings in what was a dire financial circumstance, pol sambol and rice for every meal, every day. This adversity, no doubt, shaped her, and had an influence on her outlook on life. She never spoke of it.
Sheila was a soft-spoken and gentle person having a calming influence on those around her. She had a devout and unwavering faith in Christianity, a rosary often beside her. Her memories of her early life experiences in her visits to the ancestral home of Boralessa – and its famed Passion Play by her uncle, Lawrence Perera – she could relate in detail with great relish. How, in the 1920's, did he simulate lightning so dazzlingly on a stage? Were those real nails through Christ's hands? The gasps of the audience! Sheila held all such vivid memories in her heart but told them to those who would lend an ear. Imagine her emotions when, in 2014, she visited Boralessa after an absence of about 85 years.
She was always impeccably dressed, such a sense of sartorial taste she possessed. Eclectic, anything she acquired – a glass vase, say –had to be scrutinised so that it was "just right".
A talented and creative seamstress, Sheila worked at Harrods in London for a few years while supporting her brother Merl who was studying Accountancy. She had previously been in Oxford, England, supporting her sister Colleen's family, by helping taking care of Colleen's children.
Sheila will be dearly missed by her husband Gordon, and her nieces, nephews and relatives.
Sheila was laid to rest at the Borella cemetery on April 13.

Tinley Liewellyn Peiris:
Beacon light in family
Ten years have passed since my Loku Bappa (my father Terence's younger brother) passed away on June 7, 2009 at the age of 74.
He left this world to be with our lord almighty. He had a happy and contended life, and was a great strength and courage to his family.
He married Sudu Nanda (Ninette) in 1961. They lived an exemplary and happy wedded life for 48 years. They both enjoyed their life with the family. Sudu Nanda looked after him well until his end, and she was a loving and caring wife to Loku Bappa.
He was a loving father not only to his son, Ninesh and daughter Nilendrini, but also to Eromi and Kumar whom he never considered as in-laws. He loved his four grand children.
Loku Bappa had a great faith in God. After my father's death, he visited me and my mother often and used to narrate old stories how God saved his life in many occasions. He played an active role in church activities.
At his young age, he offered his service to the Koralawella Methodist Church and later to the Rawathawatte Methodist church where he served as a circuit steward for some time. He too was a preacher. It was a great day for him when the church celebrated its 150th Anniversary on the same day of his 74th birthday. We never thought this would be his last birthday with the family. Along with Sudu Nanda, he was a member of the church choir too.
He encouraged me to write sermons and was happy to hear me delivering the word of God.
As a youth, he joined the Department of Motor Traffic in 1956 and at the time of his retirement, he was holding the post of Assistant Commissioner (Technical).
He had a love for vintage cars and took an active part in organising many old crock rallies and also took part along with Sudu Nanda in these rallies and won prizes. I remember both of them taking part in a rally dressed as a Hindu Bride and Groom just after their wedding.
May you rest in peace until we meet again on that beautiful shore!

Marhooma Raihana Abusalihu:
Homage to a life well-lived
I do not write this in mourning, but in celebration of a magnificent soul and a wholesome life.
Nobody is perfect; my late grandmother, Marhooma Raihana Abusalihu, is no exception. Rather than striving for perfection, I believe that we must express and define ourselves through our interactions with others. To those of us who have had the privilege to know her, we know that this was the case with her too. She has changed our lives, inexplicably and irreversibly, turning all of us into a better version of ourselves.
Thinking about her often puts a smile across my face. She was an important presence throughout my childhood and teenage years. For some reason, thinking of her without that beautiful, warm and comforting smile isn't possible. We were always welcome to her time, her counsel and her comfort, all things without which life would have been arduous and unenjoyable.
She was a good wife, a good sister, a good mother, a good grandmother and a good friend. I often recall upon my grandmother with a fondness that is impossible to recreate in any other situation. The experiences that she has left us with are wonderful ones.
I remember her from my childhood right up to this point in my life; a figure who has been an active person throughout all the highs and lows. We have shared our joys, our sorrows, our mistakes and our regrets with this mother, her child or not.
Her moral compass was unalterable, her actions driven by emotion, most commonly affection. Despite the sorrows that she has faced, the hardships that she has overcome, a smile was always alive on her face, a smile that has been burned in our memories, engraved in our minds, escaping the vacuum of time.
Despite my broken Tamil, my crude sense of humour, she would laugh her wonderful and unique laugh, showing her perfect set of teeth, appreciating me and my actions.
When I say that she was there for me, I mean it in a literal sense. She was there when I was born in Australia, came all the way from Sri Lanka to that previously foreign land, to be there for me and my mother; such was the person that she was: caring, considerate and helpful. The world is filled with people who nurture their egos throughout their lives from a very early age, plagued by their surroundings. I am proud to say that my grandmother was the very opposite. She held nothing to heart against other people, although she was never afraid to voice her opinion, another quality she embodied. Right until her last breath, she remained as she was from when I can remember, stubborn in her choice of doing good.
When most pass away, they cease to exist, but a few live on in the minds of the people whose lives they have touched. Her presence will be sorely missed by us and searched for. Although she has physically departed from us, my grandmother will continue to live in our minds.
It is said that good things end for better ones to start. Let us hope that her time here was good and her time in the hereafter better.

Tissa Waidyarathna:
Guiding light in meritorious work
Tissa Waidyarathna of Maharagama passed away at the age of 88 recently.
He was a reputed Engineer attached to the Colombo Municipal Council. His father was an Aurvedic physician, Charles Waidyarathna of Kolonnawa and mother was Emali Perera.
An a devout Buddhist, he supported many Buddhist temples. He was the President of Sri Gnanarama Meditation Centre Development Society at Thalawathugoda and a Patron at Sangamitharamaya, Thalawathugoda. He had a good knowledge of "Abhidharma". He was the Vice President of the Abhidharma Sabhawa at Borella.
His well-lived and fulfilled life is an example to all of us and fond memories of him will linger in our hearts forever. His life would be an influence us to carry out more social and religious work.
The flower blossoms and fades
The sun rises and descends
But the memories dignified and gracious
deeds and accomplishments of our friend
Would linger on never to fade away.
May his journey through Sansara be swift and short until he attain the Supreme Bliss of Nirvana!

Abersoch inshore lifeboat exercise with HM coastguard rescue helicopter 936
Abersoch RNLI volunteers and Rescue Helicopter 936 undertook a joint exercise on the 29 May.
Abersoch RNLI volunteers and Rescue Helicopter 936 undertook a joint exercise on the 29 May. This coincided with the Abersoch RNLI fundraisers event at the lifeboat station as hundreds of people were welcomed to the station by volunteer crew members and fundraisers alike. The fundraisers had prepared a feast of cakes and refreshments and the volunteer crew members also provided a BBQ for all to enjoy.
In the afternoon all were treated to the spectacle of the training exercise of Rescue helicopter 936 and the Abersoch Atlantic 85 inshore lifeboat The Peter and Ann Setten. The joint operation took place in the Abersoch bay area for all to see and enjoy. It involved repeated fly-buys with Rescue Helicopter 936 landing a winchman on the bow of Abersoch inshore lifeboat whilst matching each other's speed. This is a vital operation to exercise as it simulates the transfer of casualties from the inshore lifeboat to the helicopter.
Andrew Gunby, Volunteer Helm at Abersoch RNLI (exercise co-ordinator) said:
'The operation was a great success and provided us with valuable training with the helicopter. Two of our volunteer crew members today are prospective helms and this gave them vital hands-on experience of working alongside HM coastguard Rescue helicopter 936. We are very grateful for their co-operation today and look forward to working with them again in the future.'
Phil Brown, Chairman of Abersoch RNLI fundraising committee continued:
'The whole day was a great success as it raised valuable funds for the charity and also provided vital training for our dedicated volunteer crew members. I must also thank the fundraisers who have turned out today once again and shown there dedication to the charity.'
Key facts about the RNLI
The RNLI charity saves lives at sea. Its volunteers provide a 24-hour search and rescue service around the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland coasts. The RNLI operates over 238 lifeboat stations in the UK and Ireland and, in a normal year, more than 240 lifeguard units on beaches around the UK and Channel Islands. The RNLI is independent of Coastguard and government and depends on voluntary donations and legacies to maintain its rescue service. Since the RNLI was founded in 1824, its lifeboat crews and lifeguards have saved over 142,700 lives.

I know of the show Supernatural. I know about the hype surrounding the two main characters, played by Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles. The show has created an army of lusty teenage girls and boys who have dedicated their time and social media presence/influence to glorifying the show's hot protagonists. Some will describe them as the sexiest ghostbusters to ever grace the small screen, however Sam and Dean Winchester (Padalecki and Ackles' on-screen personas) hunt more than just ghosts. The series has seen its fair share of demons, monsters, and other varieties of supernatural entities, which have all seen their doom thanks to the Winchester brothers (sooooo dreamy…). But the show itself leaves room for lots of people to pick up homoerotic devices within the storyline, which makes queer fanfiction flood with young writers penning their own individual fantasies.
I particularly enjoyed Wilkinson's account on the transformation of social media in conjunction with the evolution with fan communities. Knowing the state of fandoms today, and how powerful their collective presence is in the cyber world, it was interesting to see how it had all started. He mentioned the major fan bases were dispersed between LiveJournal, message boards on fandom-specific websites, and on the forums of network television websites.
In those early years, fans tended to stick to one site and it was possible to feel that wherever you were was the centre of Supernatural fandom. Each forum or community had its own cultural mores, in-jokes, and etiquette.
– Wilkinson (47)
Young audiences LOVE this show. We all are highly aware of that. To create a subculture out of devotion and obsession to fantasy is nothing new, especially today. It's easy to conclude that when you have a devoted fanbase of horny adolescents with creativity, vivid imaginations, impressive writing skills and a computer with a show whose main characters are handsome action heroes, the most interesting fanfiction can be born. The following is an excerpt from Luciel89's "Sex Feathers of an Angel", taken from fanfiction.net. WARNING: IT'S VERY GRAPHIC:
The chapter briefly mentions the "very sexy Twitter and Tumblr" (49) which made me think of how much the Dean/Castiel (blended together as "Destial") romantic/sexual tension is pushed on both of those sites. There are fans out there who "ship" (meaning to imagine or envision) the two characters in the steamiest of fantasy love affairs. These fanworks are cranked out at faster rates than episodes of Supernatural within a given season. Of course, although it has not been brought into fruition, doesn't mean it goes unnoticed.
You know, we know what it is, what's going on. We don't talk about it. The actors don't, Jensen and I don't. But we're all perfectly aware of how the relationship is, the writers are completely aware of how it's being written. It may be unspoken but that doesn't mean it's not there or not true.
– Misha Collins, Salute to Supernatural Chicago 2012, Meet and Greet
A short keyword search on Tumblr of "destial supernatural" brought me to this:
A quick keyword search on Twitter of "#supernatural sex" brought me to this:
And I'd like to end with a pretty cool fan song, which is a cover of Plain White T's "Hey There, Delilah", spun differently to suit the love and appreciation of Destiel.

[Overall Results]
[Results by Class]
[Pic Set 1] [Pic Set 2] [Pic Set 3] [Pic Set 4]
"Right before the 1 mile marker, I took the lead." commented Basta. Zipping to the front at roaring pace, Tony Basta used his good form and high steps to fly him to the finish with the overall win and a time of 16:03. "There was some mud out there on one of those roads, I'm not sure, but this was a great course!" added Basta with a smirk.
Fighting for the 2nd
spot with some heavy pavement pounding going on was David
Schupbach, Craig Nething, and Matt Quinet. It was a sprint to the
finish over the train tracks with Nething(17:20) edging out the rest
to claim the 2nd place trophy. Just 1 second behind Nething was
Schupbach(17:21) kicking it in for 3rd, and 2 seconds behind him,
Quinet ran hard for 4th with a time of 17:23.
Keeping up her strong finishes was Julie Mcgee(20:09), who ran away with 2nd for the ladies. Rachel Fox(20:40), took home 3rd respectively.
The walkers contended with the slick course and rain fall just fine as
George Macek & Bill Cunningham rounded the last turn just
before the downhill finish. Cunningham stayed on top of Macek's
heels, but it was Macek in the end who clenched 1st in the Walk in 29
minutes, and 58 seconds.
The rain finally ceased, and a faint rainbow spread itself across the night sky. "A perfect ending for a perfect day." said race organizer, Terry Greene.
Many Thanks... goes out to Terry Greene and Bob Lowe for their amazing efforts. To Robyn, Vic, Jay and the Fitzsimmons family for their dedication, and hard work, and to George Frazier & Ronnie Green for the results.

Parkinson Foundation Provides Services, Support to Improve Quality of LIfe
Mar 30, 2019 10:49AM
By Hilary Daninhirsch
Rock Steady Boxing at Oxford Athletic Club
Parkinson's disease is a progressive, neurodegenerative disorder that affects movement. As April is Parkinson's Awareness Month, we spoke with Casey Kasperik, associate director of social support and outreach at Parkinson Foundation Western Pennsylvania, located in Bellevue, about the outlook for Parkinson's and how the nonprofit helps those with the disease.
North Hills Monthly (NHM): What is the mission of the Parkinson Foundation Western Pennsylvania?
Casey Kasperik (Kasperik): Our mission is to provide services, support and education for those living with Parkinson's disease, and their families.
NHM: What are some statistics about Parkinson's?
Kasperik: Males are affected 1.5 times more than females. The average age of onset is 60; between the ages of 65-69, the incidence of Parkinson's is .1 percent. Whites have a substantially higher prevalence and incidence of Parkinson's disease than blacks or Asians. At age 85 and higher, the incidence is about 1 percent. There are approximately 1 million people living with Parkinson's in the U.S. and 10 million worldwide; western Pennsylvania has one of the highest rates of Parkinson's, affecting about 12,000 people.
NHM: What are the risk factors?
Kasperik: Males are at slightly higher risk, but the main risk factors are age, environmental risk factors (herbicides, pesticides, heavy metals), and genetics. The Ashkenazi Jewish population is at higher risk along with the North African Berber population. Mutations in the LRRK2 gene are the most common genetic cause of typical Parkinson's disease. Approximately 85 percent of cases are an idiopathic (unknown) cause, but it can also be drug-induced, due to head trauma or from vascular reasons.
NHM: What exactly is Parkinson's, and what are the symptoms?
Kasperik: Parkinson's disease is a progressive, neuro-degenerative disorder, second to Alzheimer's disease. It was first described by Dr. James Parkinson in 1817 in An Essay on Shaking Palsy. Dopamine plays a critical role in the way our brain controls our movements and is thought to be a crucial part of the basal ganglia motor loop. Thus, shortage of dopamine—particularly the death of dopamine neurons in the nigrostriatal pathway—is a cause of Parkinson's disease. A person loses the ability to execute smooth, controlled movements. Dopamine is also a reward chemical in the brain and affects mood as well.
There are four cardinal motor symptoms: a resting tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia (slowness of movement), and postural instability. A diagnosis is made through clinical mode; you have to have at least two to three of those symptoms. There are also many non-motor symptoms associated with Parkinson's, such as sleep and mood issues (including psychosis) and cognitive impairment.
NHM: How does that present itself?
Kasperik: The vast majority of people with Parkinson's may experience some form of cognitive impairment over time. Though it is unique to each person, the development of dementia depends on how long you have Parkinson's and the stage of disease. In general, about 70 percent of people with Parkinson's develop dementia as part of their progression.
Parkinson's disease psychosis may cause patients to experience hallucinations and/or delusions. More than half of all patients with Parkinson's disease eventually develop these symptoms over the course of their disease.
NHM: How is it treated?
Kasperik: Dopaminergic drugs, developed in the '60s, are the traditional medications and still the gold standard, though some dopamine replacement medications are being reformulated or are using different delivery systems.
Another is deep brain stimulation: brain surgery in which two electrodes are implanted into a particular part of the brain and attached to a pacemaker-type device. It's usually more beneficial for the tremor-dominant type of Parkinson's.
Physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy can be useful, as Parkinson's is often known as the 'small soft disease'—movements get smaller, voices get softer.
NHM: What role can exercise play?
Kasperik: Exercise is very important. For example, Rock Steady Boxing is a Parkinson's-specific program. It is non-contact boxing that caters to people with different levels of progression. It is one of the various exercises recommended—you're getting cardio benefits and you're moving but you have to think of punch combinations. It is high intensity coupled with strength building and stretching. There is a class at Oxford Athletic Club, which also offers a class in yoga for Parkinson's.
NHM: What kind of services does your organization offer?
Kasperik: We provide community outreach and education. We're the go-to for information and referral to Parkinson's-specific providers. We provide education and resources to those individuals who are diagnosed. We do presentations in the community and much more.
We have more than 23 support groups, including one in Cranberry. We have over 40 Parkinson's-specific exercise programs, and we have professional training to help allied health professionals become certified in Parkinson's-specific programs. We have an affiliation with Allegheny Health Network, part of the Cahouet Center for Comprehensive Parkinson's Care, where we team up with physical and speech therapists and a movement disorder specialist all under one roof.
NHM: What do you have planned for Parkinson's Awareness Month?
Kasperik: Our signature educational event is the annual Living Well Conference, which is on April 27 at the Marriott Pittsburgh Airport. It is not a medical conference; rather one that is geared to our population with a focus on the term "living well" and how to manage the disease. Our keynote presenter, Davis Phinney, is a person living with Parkinson's—he's a former Olympian cyclist.
The day after, on April 28, ballet master Alexander Tressor will present a program at the Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre; his whole program incorporates a holistic way of living with Parkinson's.
NHM: What about events throughout the year?
Kasperik: We have quarterly Lunch and Learns, and we also have a Parkinson's Primer, a daylong educational program for people who are newly diagnosed.
We are an almost entirely donor-driven organization, with 95 percent of our funds coming from individual donations, so we also hold fundraisers; our largest fundraising event is Step Forward, which will be held on Saturday, Sept. 21.
NHM: Tell me about the 2019 Dick's Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon and how that ties in to your organization.
Kasperik: Individuals or relay teams can run the half-marathon or marathon. There is also a 5K. We are an official charity, so you can join our team and raise money for our foundation.
NHM: Has Parkinson's been the subject of any recent studies/research?
Kasperik: A neurosurgeon at UPMC is conducting a gene therapy study, and a doctor at CMU is doing research on optogenetics. There has been more and more recent research on how gut bacteria affects Parkinson's—it's looking like there is more gut involvement than was previously thought.
NHM: What is the most important thing people ought to know about Parkinson's, and about your organization?
Kasperik: You can't stop the progression. A lot of people think it's the "shaking disease," but there are more non-motor symptoms associated with it, like sleep issues, depression and anxiety. It is much more than a movement disorder, but it is not a terminal disease either. The more you know, the better you can manage it.
There's a lot that you can do to affect the quality of your life with Parkinson's disease; we're here to support those with Parkinson's and their loved ones.
