'Make a Muscle, Make a Difference' Campaign on Display in Rockefeller Center Plaza Featuring Triple H

The Muscular Dystrophy Association's "Make a Muscle, Make a Difference" campaign will be featured in a 115-square-foot display window in September in Rockefeller Plaza to promote awareness in the fight against neuromuscular diseases.

"Our thanks to EHE International for recognizing the importance of MDA's mission by displaying our message to the many New York City visitors and residents," MDA Manhattan Director of Business Development Kaylan Scagliola said. "Having a presence in such a prominent area is especially meaningful in spreading the Association's message of help and hope."

The window at 10 Rockefeller Plaza, donated by EHE International, will exhibit the Association's public service advertisements that showcase life-size standing displays of MDA Muscle Team members, including Natalie Morales of NBC's "Today" show, "Glee" star Max Adler, former NFL Super Bowl-winning quarterback Kurt Warner, WWE Superstar Triple H and several MDA Goodwill Ambassadors.

"EHE International is excited to have MDA in the window this September," said Deborah McKeever, president of EHE International. "Together we can educate and increase public awareness of neuromuscular diseases and inform the public of its signs and symptoms."

The 46th annual MDA Telethon was televised live on WWOR-TV My9 from Metropolis Studio in New York, on Sunday, Sept. 4.

Movie Review: "Inside Out"

World Wrestling Entertainment’s brief flirtation with family friendly films has ended. But the residue of this effort sticks to “Inside Out,” a half-hearted return to the violent men of the ring doing violent things on the screen model that predated the PG years.

And they refuse to abandon their efforts to turn one of their stars into the next Rock or Hulk Hogan, a crossover phenomenon about to carry movies and TV shows, and not just other wrestlers and folding chairs.

Paul “Triple H” Levesque has the look, the demeanor and the skills to be a useful heavy in other people’s action films. He’s so muscle-bound, his arms can’t quite drop to his side. His face is more scary than handsome. Yet “Inside Out” is yet another attempt to make him a leading man.

WWE Plans Major Promotion Around Survivor Series

Expect the biggest push for Survivor Series in several years, as WWE is planning on making the event a showcase for major corporate sponsorship they are attempting to tie into next year's WrestleMania event.

WrestleZone is reporting that The Rock's appearance at Madison Square Garden (which has already been announced locally in the New York market) is just one of the many major components WWE Chairman Vince McMahon has personally scheduled for the event.

"Vince is up in arms about the lack of major corporate tie-ins as compared to events with less of a global reputation such as The Stanley Cup," our key insider told us, "and Survivor Series is where Vince is sure he's going to kick off a whole new era of corporate sponsorship in WWE."
