So you're bored at work. The obvious move here is to start browsing job sites, looking for more exciting opportunities at other companies.
But if you work at some leading tech companies, you might approach this situation differently. Specifically, you might think about gunning for a new job on a new team — within the same organization.
In HR speak, this process is known as "internal mobility." It's something that Facebook supports — and something that often surprises new hires, Kate Berardo, Facebook's head of leadership development, told Business Insider.
Berardo mentioned the "honest conversations" between managers and employees about career progression. "If I really am showing care for your development," Berardo said, "even though it might possibly be painful for our team, the right answer might be that you go work on a cross-functional team where you get to play more to your strengths." It might wind up being a better situation for the individual employee and for the company.
Google, meanwhile, has a multi-pronged approach to internal mobility. The company has a "bungee" program, in which, when an employee takes parental leave, another employee temporarily steps in to cover their responsibilities. The employee on leave gets some peace of mind; the employee who covers for them gets to try out a new role.
Google has also boasted a "20% time" policy (it's unclear if the policy is still in place), which allows employees to spend a certain amount of time working on a project completely unrelated to their job. Gmail and Google News famously began as 20% time projects.
Hootsuite recently developed its own version of Google's bungee program. As CEO Ryan Holmes shared on LinkedIn, "stretch" employees spend one day per week on a different team for 90 days.
The idea that employees leave because they're bored isn't new, nor is the fact that some companies allow employees to transfer teams. But several career experts told Business Insider that they've seen increased talk about internal mobility since millennials entered the workforce in droves.
Millennials are "attracted to companies that have a true career path for them," said Jaime Klein, CEO of Inspire Human Resources. "They want to feel that the great work that they're doing is recognized, that they're not going to stay in a role too long without having expanded responsibilities or perhaps a title change." That is to say, millennials may indeed see themselves as job-hoppers, just not company-hoppers.
Internal mobility may be more common in tech than in other industries, not solely because employees skew younger, but also because tech companies tend to be "progressive" and "leading-edge," said Alexandra Dickinson, career expert and membership strategy lead at personal finance company SoFi. What's more, said Jenny Blake, a career coach, former Googler, and the author of "Pivot," tech companies may be more accustomed to an environment of change than some older, more established institutions.
It's also important to have a solid case for why you deserve to make this move, especially since most managers don't want to see a high-performing employee leave their team.
Eventually, a spot opened up and Blake made her case: She'd been training to be a coach, she had a popular blog, and she'd been working on a 20% time project at Google, which has since morphed into the global "Career Guru" program. The spot was hers.

Why Did Steve Leave "Blue's Clues"? Male Pattern Baldness Broke Hearts!
By: Amrutha Srivatsa - Published: May 7, 2018 at 8:53 am
Steve Burns Talking At An Event by The Moth Credits: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwmtkFPYXsg&t=70s
If you were wondering where your favorite Blue's Clues guy Steve Burns was, and why he left the pre-school learning program, then wonder no more. The reason behind Steve quitting the TV show may not be what you think! But will we get to see the host on TV again?
Blue's Clues on Nickelodeon was a preschooler's go-to show and was also one of the longest-running children's shows on TV. And at the helm of it was none other than Steve Burns, who called it quits after six years of putting hard work into it!
The then-kids are all grown up now and are looking for answers as to why there was a sudden change in the host of their favorite show. So, why did Steve from Blue's Clues quit?
Keep reading to find out!
When Fans Were in Split Ends!
Steve Burns is all grown up now. But we still remember him from when he was on TV from 1996 to 2002!
Today, the 44-year-old is a musician, singer, songwriter, and actor. And he has Blue's Clues to thank. So, why did he quit so suddenly in 2002 when the show was doing so well?
Rumors about his death started floating around. And children from across the country were convinced that their beloved idol had either met with an accident and died or overdosed on heroin!
He had to make an appearance on The Rosie O'Donnell Show to prove that he was very much alive! So, why did Steve leave Blue's Clues?
Well, the reason was that he was going bald! Not only that, but he wanted to sing, too.
The "Don't Blame the Weather" singer said that he actually never wanted to do children's TV shows forever and that his real dream was to become a musician.
But despite the abundant fame that came with the show, Burns always felt that his dreams of becoming a singer were bigger.
In addition to that, there was another problem Burns couldn't ignore.
He said that he quit mostly because he was losing all his hair, and fast! He just couldn't digest the fact that he was going to go bald while doing a children's show.
Burns shaved his head just before quitting. But that wasn't enough for him.
"I was going bald and I kind of looked around and I'm like – the people who decided that I should wear these pants are not going to choose a wig with any dignity for me. It's just not going to happen," Burns said in an interview.
The "Mane" Reason He Quit
While most people thought that Burns would be back after a sabbatical, the 2002 episode was his very last!
A receding hairline broke thousands of children's hearts. But it did help to further his career in other ways.
Burns started acting and was seen in some blockbuster movies like Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and Christmas on Mars. He also made appearances on TV shows like Law & Order, Yes, Dear, and Yo Gabba Gabba!
"Everyone wants there to be a dramatic answer and there's not. I wish I had a cool answer for this, but I just-I did it for like seven years and it just seemed like time to go. It just seemed like the right time," Burns explained.
Dramatic or not, his fans missed him thoroughly. And he'll always have that special place in their hearts.
The singer said that he had somewhat reached his show-hosting peak. So, after doing it in front of a blue screen for so many years, he wanted a change in his career and his life.
Is Steve Burns "Teasing" His Fans?
If you head over to the Burns' Instagram page, then you'll see that the former host has put his fans on cloud nine! He announced that there was going to be a reboot of Blue's Clues!
….hold my beer.

The channel has not yet declared who would host the show, but Burns is ready to fight John Cena for his old job! This is because the WWE star auditioned for the role!

With this much excitement in the air, watch out Monday Night Football! You have some serious competition!
We are awaiting further developments about the show. But now we can all delve into the sweet fact that Blue's Clues is going to be back on TV after 16 years!

The ECMI prepares publications at different stages in our work and with varied aims. Below is a list of our current publications database, and in the left menu there is access to descriptions of our publications.
Reform is a word that is used frequently with respect to the democratic transformation of Ukraine following the change of regime after the manifestations and demonstrations in the Maidan square around the change of the year 2013/14. Unfortunately, very few analysts consider ethno-cultural governance and national minority protection important aspects of the reform efforts. Establishing permanent and functioning inter-ethnic structures receives little attention, except in the small circle of human rights defenders. Although a breakout of inter-ethnic tensions is on everybody's mind, establishing lasting legal and political institutions for stable and peaceful inter-ethnic relations remains absent from most of the international debate on the future of Ukraine. Indeed, it has been argued that reforms with high relevance for the country's future, such as territorial and administrative reforms have been largely 'ethnically neutral.' This Issue Brief discusses four pathways towards sustainable ethno-cultural governance and stable inter-ethnic relations in Ukraine and proposes institutionalized and open dialogue as well as awareness campaigns as a cross-cutting tool to avert tension.


Ooooo you know the day's when raising children seems like an incredibly difficult journey, sometimes I wonder if I am going to live through another day ! LOL ! I need inspiration often, one way I inspire myself is by looking at images of mother's and babies on pinterest, or reading Waldorf education books always very soothing :) But I wanted something that would give me meditative repose, something that I could interact with, something that I could give to my daughter, my son's for their families later on. I have always dream't of having the fortitude to write a book with all the little wisdom's we learn on the path of motherhood, but despite my desire to write such a book I feel I can illustrate those feelings more poignantly in a coloring book, including some inspiring- empowering poetry and gentle guidance on being a parent. I myself will use this coloring book, there are so many possibilities :) one can change the composition in so many ways with color, each time taking the piece to a new place. I am very excited about this work, and hope you will be too. A gift that can help empower and inspire us as mother's or for those mother's in our lives, or for those grandmother's who would like to relive those moments of raising children. Such a sacred and powerful place in our lives this holy time of "Mothering".
You can pre purchase the Mothering Coloring Book here: And have it for Mother's day.
In this work I include lot's of floral shapes and patterns dancing in and out of the focal study of a mother and child. I have been blessed with a variety of mother and babe photo submission's from friends, and so have used many of these as reference for the book. It will be a small book of 25 pages, my first ever published book on paper.
In the past I worked as an activist trying to raise awareness in the west about the value of motherhood. That it is a worthy occupation, worthy of pay and recognition, respect. I was alone with my first child, and having come from a poor family, was forced to subsist on government welfare. It meant standing in a line with people who were not working, drug addicted and living cyclical poverty. For me with a baby in my arms, the only reason I was there was because I was working! Caring for a tiny little being. I honestly do not understand why working at a 9-5 job and putting your baby in child-care was better than caring for your own baby. I noticed all the issues arising from mother's separated from their vocation by more important occupations in low paying jobs, the impact on the children, on families, on society as a whole. I was full of the will to wake up my community. So I started "Mothering In Action" a charity and community based initiative to raise awareness about mother-work. I was interviewed by our local paper's and met with many circles of other mother's to discuss the issue. I advocated for in depth education on raising children in High School, with interaction and cooperation with infants, babes and children, their mother's and father's. I painted art and held an auction to raise funds and awareness for the initiative. I dream't of having a center where mother's could gather to share knowledge and spell each other off, a kind of community initiative valuing motherhood. However although my efforts were exhaustive, the community consciousness and the actual mechanism of the societies order, was mired in a very specific protocol which had no room for such new thinking. Eventually I burnt myself out and was unable to continue the initiative.
Now I have more desire than ever to raise awareness about the value of motherhood, and I will do so with celebration ! I hope this wee coloring book can help shed light on this sacred path of raising human beings, this vocation demanding so many skills, so worthy of respect, gratitude and support.

In addition to anti-money laundering (AML) and Bank Security Act (BSA) compliance, Brunner also noted that the company's wallets meet standards set by the Payment Card Industry (PCI) that cover the handling of consumer data.
The news of the company's expansion also follows Trucoin's July announcement that it had ended its previous partnership with both National Check and Currency (NCC) and Presto Financial – the companies that previously acted as Trucoin's licensed money services partner in the US.
"We felt that we needed to do this now, so that we could ensure a substantially larger group of consumers have access to a fast and easy way to purchase bitcoin," Brunner said on 24th July.
While Brunner thanked his company's previous partner, he suggested that the move was meant to ensure the company could serve a larger section of the US consumer market.


Instagram is the contemporary hub to advertise your business! This photo-sharing application is not only crucial for travel companies, retailers and restaurants, but it's one of the most effective brand-building tool available. It is extremely important for all kinds of businesses.
On Instagram, prospect customers would find and judge the visual identity of your business. By generating an engagement rate of 4.21 percent per follower, Instagram is considered the "King of social engagement". This means that Instagram delivers 120 times more engagement per follower than Twitter, 58 times more than Facebook.
Therefore, after setting up your account, you have to build an Instagram strategy. Starting with some good research is important. View other brands, your competitors as well, to get some inspiration and enhance your competitive intelligence.
Second, organize a social media marketing plan. This would be your business guide for your social media activities. Most importantly, before you begin, set your Instagram goals: They may involve increasing awareness, product sales, traffic to your website or branded hashtag awareness. The goals must be attainable and measurable.
Instagram is all about displaying visuals, so you have to come up with a coherent brand identity that your prospect customers would easily recognize. Since cohesion is necessary, it would be better to choose one precise filter and use it for the majority, if not for all of you pictures. This unicity would make your brand recognizable, and potential clients would stop scrolling once seeing your image.
Obviously, you should smartly consider the content of your photos. By evidence, if you own a shop for accessories, you'll be posting photos of earrings, necklaces, etc… But you may very well use also lifestyle content from time to time, to better promote yourself. To get inspired, check what your followers are sharing, their interests. As a simple example, if your company sells sport outfits, you may post pictures of people running with their dogs. Remember that, the unique features of your brand are still very important on Instagram. To extend its popularity, a brand for accessories can't imitate a coffee shop.
On Instagram, non-visual elements contribute in building your Instagram brand. It includes common language and style for caption. The branded hashtag is the most used tool. You need to find hashtags that are best related to your brand, to encourage followers to share your posts and become more exposed to new prospect customers. Keep in mind that your picture content, captions and hashtags, altogether reflect the identity of your business.
For a stronger promotion, try to collaborate with celebrities who use Instagram, you can ask them to share their thoughts about your brand. In consequence, your brand would be exposed to their wide Instagram community.
For a fruitful work, you have to organize your steps. Plan ahead how many posts will be displayed per week, at what time. If you post once per week, your brand may not stick in the mind of your target audience. On the other hand, you don't need to post every single day! Three posts per week are required to keep your prospect customers in touch with your brand, without being too insistent.
Instagram is the modern arena to launch and promote your brand, and keep it on the head of concurrence.

Home / India News / 11,000 litres of milk, curd poured in foundation pit for Rajasthan temple
People pouring milk, curd, ghee for the foundation ceremony of a temple in Rajasthan's Jhalawar.
11,000 litres of milk, curd poured in foundation pit for Rajasthan temple
Out of the 11000 litres, there was 1500 litre of curd and 1 quintal of desi ghee while rest was milk and its total cost was nearly Rs 1.50 lakh.
By Aabshar H Quazi | Hindustan Times, Kota
Huddled around a dug up pit, scores of men were seen holding up big cans and pouring milk, curd and desi ghee (clarified butter), totalling 11,000 litres, for the foundation ceremony of Devnarayan temple to be constructed in Ratlai region of Jhalawar district on Saturday.
"We collected 11,000 litres of milk, desi ghee and curd from the Gujjar community members and even others for the foundation ceremony of the Devnarayan temple as a mark of reverence for deity Lord Devnarayan," said spokesperson of the temple construction committee Ramlal Gujjar.
Out of the 11000 litres, there was 1500 litre of curd and 1 quintal of desi ghee while rest was milk and its total cost was nearly Rs 1.50 lakh, he said.
We had appealed to the Gujjar community members a day before the ceremony and the people gave generously, he said.
When asked if it is a mandatory tradition of the Gujjar community to pour milk for such ceremonies, Ramlal said that it is not compulsory but it has been done a few times in the past as well. He maintained it was nothing in comparison to what lord gives us.
"It is not at all a waste as in Gujjar community we pour some milk on deity Devnarayan as it protects our cattle," said Ramlal on being quizzed if the exercise did not seem like a gargantuan waste of resources.
We owe everything to the lord so we donated milk products to him for the foundation ceremony, he said.
The temple, being built at a cost of Rs 1 crore, will be ready in two years.

Land Logistics Working Group UNCR Data Already Delivering Results
Articles ● July 2019
The nature of our industry requires us to move plant and equipment, by land, air and sea, over considerable distances. We acknowledge that there is potential to cause harm to people, assets, community and environment whilst conducting our logistics activities in urban and rural/remote locations. Non-conformance reporting helps us better understand when, where and how these risks manifest and facilitates improvement in our day-to-day operations.
The WA/NT Land Logistics Uniform Non-conformance Reporting (UNCR) project has been established to develop a common process for Oil & Gas supply chain related HSE non-conformances to be submitted by member companies on a periodic basis. Building a common industry NCR database to facilitate analysis so that trends can be identified, investigated and targeted by industry, reducing occurrences and severity potential.
After 2 quarters of data submissions from members the project team have completed their initial review of the data received. With all members submitting returns, individual reported non-conformances totalled 336 with a reduction in reporting in the 2nd quarter believed to be linked to a reduced construction activity.
Initial findings indicated that the largest area of non-conformance relates to incorrectly stowed, secured or restrained cargo. Most of these recorded NCRs were identified in Perth. View presentation here for more details.
The work group wants to highlight that these events are potential breaches of Main Roads WA CoR legislation. All businesses that use road transport as part of their business take a shared responsibility of managing the risk. This means anyone who has control in the transport chain can be held legally accountable by the relevant regulatory authorities.
Learn more about the UNCR project here.

Peter Schiff: The REAL Reason Gold Hasn't Gone Up and Why It Ultimately Will
January 12, 2022 by SchiffGold 0 2
Inflation in the US is at historically high levels.
So, why hasn't gold taken off?
We hear this question over and over again. In this video, Peter Schiff answers this question and explains why the markets will eventually wake up to their misperception.
That's the key word – misperception.
Taper tantrums and fear of Fed rate hikes have distorted perception in the markets. People are selling gold when they should be buying gold on the dips.
And at the root of this misperception is the market's focus on nominal interest rates instead of real interest rates.
The Federal Reserve now plans to raise interest rates three, possibly four, times in the next year. The conventional wisdom is that these rate hikes are bearish for the price of gold. This is why every time we got hotter than expected inflation news last year, the price of gold fell. Everybody assumed the central bank would speed up the pace of these rate hikes.
Gold has been rangebound around $1,800 for months. Peter pointed out that the fact gold hasn't really gone down despite this universally held belief that monetary tightening is negative for gold is a positive sign.
But it's key to understand that not only are these projected rate hikes not negative for gold – they are actually going to be a positive.
The Missing Puzzle Piece – Real Interest Rates
Why do investors assume rate hikes are bad for gold?
Generally speaking, rising interest rates increase the opportunity cost of holding gold.
Gold does not generate a yield. If interest rates rise and you're holding gold, you're forgoing the interest income you could earn on dollars if you put them in a bank account or invest them in bonds. That's why rising interest rates tend to create headwinds for gold. And it's why we've seen gold sell off on high inflation news. The markets expect the Fed to fight inflation with rate hikes, thus raising the opportunity cost of holding gold.
Rates have been at zero for a long time. That means there has been no opportunity cost to own gold. The Fed's artificially low interest rates have been supportive of gold. The fear (and misperception) is if the Fed removes those supports by raising rates, gold will crash.
Peter says that's not going to happen.
The key is understanding the difference between nominal interest rates and real interest rates.
When you're talking about an opportunity cost, the interest rate has to be real. And by real, I mean above the rate of inflation."
Even based on the government's flawed CPI, inflation rose by about 7% in 2021.
Even if the Fed follows through with all of the rate hikes that it's projecting, it's talking about slowly raising interest rates in one-quarter point increments until, at the end of this year, they're at 1%. And they'll continue the process in 2023 until at the end of 2023, we're at 2%. And supposedly, the 2% rate of interest represents a huge headwind for gold because it's an opportunity cost, and a lot of people that are in gold are not going to want to be in gold when they can get a 2% yield on their cash."
Peter said the whole idea is absurd.
If you accept a 7% inflation, even though the actual rate of inflation is probably 15% if the government measured it accurately, that means the dollar is losing 7% of its purchasing power every year. In exchange for that, you're going to be able to earn 2% in interest to offset the 7% you're losing to inflation. You are still -5%.
Negative 5% is not an opportunity cost. Nobody wants the opportunity to lose 5%. So, if you're giving up a 5% loss, you've given up nothing."
In order for there to be an opportunity cost, you have to have an interest rate above the rate of inflation. If the Fed raised rates to 10%, that might be a problem for gold. With an inflation rate of 7%, you would be giving up 3% in real interest that you could otherwise earn.
But if they're just talking about raising rates to 2%, that's nothing! I'm going to stay in gold to avoid a 5% loss. The opportunity cost is not owning gold. It's owning US dollars and losing 5%. What the Fed is doing is too little too late to derail the gold bull market."
In fact, Peter said he thinks the Fed will initiate the next leg up for gold when the markets wake up to this reality.
The Inflation Fight the Fed Can't Win
Right now, everybody is fixated on the Fed's fight against inflation. They assume that the central bank is going to win. So, why own gold?
At some point, the markets will realize that these incremental, tiny rate hikes are not nearly enough to stop inflation. The Fed is way behind the curve, and inflation is rising much faster than the Fed is talking about hiking. In fact, the Fed isn't really talking about tight monetary policy at all. The Fed is talking about slightly less loose monetary policy. Less loose isn't tight.
What the Fed is talking about doing is reducing the amount of gasoline that is pouring on the inflation fire. That still means the fire is going to get bigger. Even if it gets bigger more slowly, it's still going to get bigger."
But Peter said he thinks it may get bigger even faster.
When the markets realize these rate hikes aren't doing any good, and that inflation is getting worse, that's another reason to buy gold."
And while the rate hikes won't be big enough to tame inflation, they may well be big enough to prick the bubble economy.
When you develop an addiction to a certain amount of monetary heroin, even if you get monetary heroin, but you get a smaller dose, it's not enough for your habit. And I think that's going to happen in the markets."
Ultimately, it will bleed into the economy and drive it into recession. That means we'll not only have inflation but stagflation.
In the face of that, the Fed is ultimately going to do an about-face. It's going to start cutting interest rates again and restarting the QE program even though the inflation problem has gotten worse."
When that happens, gold is going to go ballistic.
But between now and then, take advantage of the misperception in the market that these rate hikes, if they actually come, are bearish for gold. That's keeping a temporary lid on the price of gold. Eventually, reality is going to blow that lid off. But in the meantime, buy yourself some gold. In fact, maybe even better, buy some silver as well."
This sale is not going to go on forever.
When you get a gift horse, don't look it in the mouth. Just take advantage of it."

Book review: 'Jerusalem' by Simon Sebag Montefiore
By Wendy Smith
Special to Tribune Newspapers
Simon Sebag Montefiore's epic survey of Jerusalem's sanguinary history does not inspire confidence in the civilizing qualities of religion. The pile of corpses accumulated over millenniums from the persecutions both perpetrated and endured by all three of the faiths — Christianity, Islam and Judaism — that have contended for Jerusalem would surely be high enough to reach the celestial home of any one of them. Not that politicians come off any better than believers here. Anyone frustrated by the intractable stalemate in the contemporary Middle East peace process may take grim comfort from the knowledge that Jerusalem has been a flash point for global warfare since the time of the Egyptian pharaohs: "the desire and prize of empires," as Montefiore puts it, "yet of no strategic value."
Montefiore embraces Jerusalem's paradoxes in his chronological account, which seeks to avoid hindsight and disclaims a political agenda. He succeeds admirably in remaining evenhanded, a particularly notable achievement since his great-great-uncle Moses Montefiore, an English financier, was foremost among the wealthy European Jews seeking to ameliorate the dreadful conditions under which their coreligionists lived in Ottoman-ruled 19th century Jerusalem. Like his great-great-uncle, who befriended Jerusalem's powerful Muslim Families while building facilities for the city's Jews, Montefiore appreciates the messy, on-the-ground reality of life in Jerusalem throughout the centuries.
Montefiore's depiction of all three faiths is restricted to the actions of their founders and adherents as revealed by the plethora of primary and scholarly sources he ably employs. "My task is to pursue the facts, not to adjudicate between the mysteries of different religions," he writes. The author of prize-winning biographies of Stalin and Potemkin, he uses the same focus on individual lives to tell Jerusalem's story, though in this case the cast of characters is much larger and stretches across more than 3,000 years.
The main narrative begins around 1000 BC with the capture of Jerusalem by David, king of the Israelites. Jewish Jerusalem survived, tossed among various empires, until 70 AD, when the Romans crushed a rebellion, demolished the Second Temple and obliterated the city, leaving only the holding walls of the Temple Mount, a few towers, and a pile of wreckage scavenged and reused by Jerusalem's conquerors ever since.
Montefiore's detailed account of the city's subsequent architecture — a pagan temple erected on the rock where Jesus was crucified, replaced by Christian churches after Constantine's fourth century conversion; the seventh century Muslim shrine and mosque built on the Temple Mount — cogently makes the point that "most of Jerusalem's shrines … have been borrowed or stolen, belonging formerly to another religion." Jerusalem's political and social history is equally complex. Its Arab conquerors tolerated Christian and Jewish worship within limits of fluctuating severity; pilgrims from all three faiths were flocking to the city by the 11th century. Crusaders executed the most barbaric slaughter since the Romans when they took Jerusalem in 1099, yet the ruling class of Christian Jerusalem adopted many Eastern customs. Saladin recaptured the city for Islam in 1187, but warfare among Christian armies, various Muslim powers and the barbarian Tartars reduced Jerusalem by the early 15th century to a grimy backwater whose 6,000 residents alternately fleeced and lynched the pilgrims.
Montefiore whisks through this grubby period to arrive at the consolidation of the Ottoman Empire, which established a status quo that endured in Jerusalem from 1517 until the late 19th century. Ottoman sultan Suleiman restricted worship by Jews, streaming into Jerusalem after their expulsion from Spain, to a narrow street alongside what became known as the Wailing Wall. For strategic reasons, he recognized Western Catholics as custodians of the city's Christian shrines, infuriating the local Greek Orthodox. Rivalry between the two sects remained so bitter over the ensuing three centuries that in 1846 a battle on Good Friday between adherents left 40 people dead around the altar of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. The glaring contrast between religious ideals and human actions could hardly be more pointed.
They may have hated each other, but it was the anti-Semitism of both wings of Christianity that permanently altered Jerusalem's demographics. Pogroms had already sent thousands of Russian Jews fleeing to the city by the time European persecutions provoked Theodor Herzl to publish his influential Zionist tract, "The Jewish State," in 1896. World politics led the British government to support this idea in the Balfour Declaration, cynically designed to enlist Jewish support for America's entry into World War I. Prince Faisal, aiming to rule a Kingdom of Syria extracted from the dying Ottoman Empire, was willing to accept a Jewish majority in Palestine within this kingdom. Jewish immigration exploded: By 1936, there were 100,000 Jews in Jerusalem; Christians and Arabs totaled 60,000.
The city's Muslim religious leader paid a friendly visit to Hitler and encouraged anti-Semitic riots. The radical Jewish Irgun responded by tossing grenades into Arab cafés. Montefiore impartially describes atrocities on both sides in the years leading to the establishment in 1948 of "a much larger and stronger Israel than would otherwise have emerged" if Arab leaders had not repeatedly rejected the two-state partition repeatedly accepted by Zionist leader David Ben-Gurion. The author is equally matter-of-fact about the rise of Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser, whose secular socialism was not so different from Ben-Gurion's, ironically, except that his pan-Arabism mandated the elimination of Israel. The main narrative concludes with the Six-Day War in 1967, when Jerusalem, divided between Jordan and Israel in 1949, came under exclusive Israeli rule.
"The conquest transformed, elevated and complicated Jerusalem in a flash of revelation that was simultaneously messianic and apocalyptic, strategic and nationalistic," Montefiore writes in his brief epilogue, which sketches an increasing fundamentalism on all sides that does not bode well for lasting peace in the region or the city. Yet throughout Jerusalem's history, acts of appalling barbarism prompted by religious intolerance have alternated with deals struck by pragmatic leaders who recognized they could never keep the Holy City solely for themselves. It's fitting that Montefiore closes his densely textured book, suspicious of all sweeping assertions, with a quiet morning walk to watch Jews, Christians and Muslims praying at their respective sacred sites on "the divine esplanade where Heaven and Earth meet." Whatever Jerusalem's political future may be, it stands as a monument to humanity's enduring religious faith, in its best and worst aspects.

Златен гол е метод, използван в периода 1993 – 2004 година за определяне на победител във футболен мач. Според него, ако отборите завършат на равно в редовното време, този отбор който първи отбележи гол в продълженията е победител в мача. Този победен гол се нарича Златен гол. Ако никой от двата отбора не отбележи гол в две продължения, победителят се определя след дузпи.

Терминът "златен гол" (ЗГ) и измененията в правилата са въведени от ФИФА през 1993 г. Решение дали да се прилага правилото обаче се вземат за всяко отделно първенство.

Първият записан златен гол е на 13 март 1993 г. от Австралия срещу Уругвай в четвъртфинален мач от Световното първенство за младежи. Първият финал на голям турнир, който е решен от такъв гол, е за трофея на Футболната лига от 1995 г., където Бирмингам Сити побеждава Карлайл Юнайтед с 1:0 с гол на Пол Тейт.

В Европейския шампионат правилото е прието през 1996 г., а в Световния – през 1998 г.

Първият златен гол на Европейско първенство (ЕП) е отбелязан на финала на Евро 96 – Германия – Чехия от германеца Оливер Бирхоф. Същата година в североамериканското първенство "Мейджър Лийг Сокър" Еди Поуп отбелязва златен гол в първото продължение след 3 минути и 25 секунди игра, с който Ди Си Юнайтед побеждава Лос Анджелис Галакси с 3:2.

Първият златен гол в историята на Световното първенство (СП) вкарва защитникът Лоран Блан през 1998 г. и Франция да побеждава Парагвай на осминафиналите.

През 2000 г. Франция побеждава Италия в продълженията на финала на Европейското първенство със златен гол на Давид Трезеге. Така Франция става вторият едновременен притежател на Световната купа на ФИФА и Европейската купа на УЕФА след Западна Германия през 1974 г.

Следващата година със златен гол се решава и победата в престижен клубен турнир. На финала за Купата на УЕФА Ливърпул преодолява Депортиво Алавес с 5:4 след златен автогол на Делфи Гели и спечелва трофея.

Последният златен гол на световно първенство по футбол е отбелязан от Илхан Мансъз на мача Турция – Сенегал през 2002 г.

През 2003 г. за последен път се печели голям международен турнир чрез златен гол. Отбелязва го Тиери Анри на финала за Купата на конфедерациите и Франция побеждава Камерун с 1:0.

Златни голове на световно първенство

Златни голове за Купата на конфедерациите

Правилото за златния гол е прието, за да се стимулира атакуващият стил на игра и това да увеличи атрактивността на мача. Нерядко обаче то води до обратния ефект – отборите предприемат защитна стратегия, за да намалят риска от поражение. Има и особени случаи. В квалификационен мач срещу Гренада за Купата на Карибите на 27.1.1994 г., домакинът Барбадос умишлено вкарва късен автогол в успешен опит да се класира за финалите, като с това изравнява резултата и съгласно регламента налага продължения за златен гол, тъй като необичайно правило за турнира гласи, че златните голове се броят двойно при изчисляването на головата разлика. Барбадос получава гол в 83-та минута и води с 2:1 три минути преди края на редовното време, но се нуждае от победа с два гола разлика, за да се класира. След като барбадоският защитник Тери Сили отбелязва автогол, за да доведе резултата до 2:2, Гренада се опитва да отбележи и в двете врати, докато Барбадос ги защитава и двете през последните три минути на редоното време и четирите минути на добавеното време.  Барбадос спечелва играта в продълженията и преминава в следващия кръг.

Section 2: CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE DESIGN OF THE 'IDEAL' ANKLE ORTHOSIS
(Abstract version)
Section 3: Current research projects
Section 4: Future research (contact us for further information on our current and future research opportunities and directions)
There are thousands of ankle braces and many tape methods used both as safety devices and as medical equipment, on children and in the 'Workplace' that is Professional Sport in 2020. Traditionally the degree of protective ability is assessed by how much restriction of the STJ inversion or ankle roll they create, with greatest restriction deemed most protective, and by prospective studies in sports, comparing injury rates between methods. Whilst I contend that I could show wearing 'shoe boxes' on your feet instead of braces or tape ALSO reduces ankle sprains, for familiarity and comparison, we will be undertaking versions of the 'Shoe Box Study', but consider more of the consequences of the interventions.
Most Ankle surgeons do not expect much (and neither should you!) tissue repair/regrowth after lateral ligament injury, at best hoping that immobilization and Physiotherapy will lead to scar tissue. While some of the study directions may be unfamiliar and challenging, it is Ankle Surgeons and Doctors (who can prescribe and need evidence of 'medical intent' that makes sense), Athletes and often their Parents, for whom most studies are designed, as well as to develop initial proofs of new concepts for future funding. Therefore, the purposes of the of the studies are to demonstrate KiSS is superior to existing methods in;
Safety - We will use mechanical testing like for airbags, seatbelts or helmets, to measure the resistance of the KiSS system throughout normal inversion ROM and time, and Clinical prospective trials in sports v current methods. KiSS will be shown through physics and engineering to have sufficient energy storage capacity to 100% prevent a common ankle sprain whilst prospective studies in field and court sports will make direct comparison to existing common practice of tape and brace.
Repair of ligaments – We will examine the degree of ligament repair and joint integrity of an acute injury before and after KiSS intervention, where we propose to represent the world's first non-surgical repair/regrowth of the lateral ligaments using the Isolated 3D method developed. No current system has ever been shown to repair ligaments, so follow up scans of ligaments following intervention has rarely been attempted nor has anyone attempted to isolate an image of them. Since KiSS contends to improve the integrity of the injured ligaments post intervention, so also requires a protocol to visually represent same. The initial Pilots are to develop methods and demonstrate the KiSS brace will improve immediate clinical outcomes in an acute injury phase and improve ligament integrity at 3 months post injury.
Early Mobilization – We will investigate what is known anecdotally, that when KiSS is applied to recent or 'acute' lateral ankle sprains, users clinically assess better regarding balance, mobility, pain, weight distribution, gait, comfort and perceived levels of support. The first step is to take one recent acute ankle sprain through KiSS rehab protocols, starting with early mobilization in the acute stage, compared to existing methods, whilst also taking before and after medical 'Images' of the ligament and joint integrity, utilizing the 3D isolation Technique.
Repair - As repair of the lateral ligaments is the 'Holy Grail' of ankle rehabilitation, it is our goal to produce supporting evidence for KiSS early intervention in acute sprains. These studies can and will be expanded to include comparisons across groups of alternative methods for comparison of medical benefit. Each new KiSS product will be subjected to mechanical testing for safety and shown to mobilize and improve outcomes for damaged or repaired ankle ligaments.
Regeneration/Orthobiologics- The clinical trials protocol will include the utilization of Orthobiologics, currently ineffective in ankles, but not in other joints where load can be induced internally and controlled. Orthobiologics (Stem Cells) act to enhance the growth of tissue and only KiSS can provide the joint support (Kinematic intra-articular Support) and 'optimal loading' necessary to regrow ligaments, so we have developed protocols to decide if KiSS truly is the world's first Stem Cell or Orthobiologic Ankle system, with implications for prevention and repair of Ankle OA.

To fix and prevent, not 'manage' Osteoarthritis OA in the lower limb, should be the collective 'Holy Grail' with or without Orthobiologics OB. Lateral Ankle Sprain LAS, Chronic Ankle Instability CAI and Ankle Osteoarthritis AOA create asymmetry which alters the biomechanics of the entire lower limb, so by better addressing AOA, we can probably do more than just impact the multi-billion dollar annual costs of AOA.
It would seem we have advanced, if not futuristic Surgical techniques and Orthobiologic technology, so what is missing? The short answer is Medical Intent MI. Devices and methods used in rehabilitation need MI intent to enable and stimulate repair. The world is changing and Morals Ethics and the human costs, are being counted. CTE concussion is just the tip of the iceberg for cumulative trauma injuries, in cost and prevalence, and class actions seek to defend and enforce people's rights to safety, either in the workplace, as in professional sport, or in medical outcomes.
The significant yet hidden role of the subtalar joint as a 'Safety Valve' was first noted by Albert Ferguson in 1972, yet today the contradictions in rehabilitation and injury prevention devices that restrict the STJ, remain commonplace. It is also necessary to consider what has changed inside the synovial capsule before and after lateral ligament injury, such as pressure, joint alignment and space, so we can better understand and design for restoration of homeostasis.
This paper will examine factors, causes and interventions that may be inadvertently restricting or preventing Orthobiologics effectiveness in the human ankle from a Translational Medicine perspective and an engineering bias.

Anatomy and functional anatomy
Ankle and subtalar joint motion and stability
Lateral ankle sprain mechanics
Functional instability
Taping and Bracing as ankle injury prophylaxes
Implications and contraindications
According to Wright (32) the ankle and subtalar joints function similar to a universal joint. When motion parallel to one plane is limited, for example the ankle axis during rotation of the lower leg, motion must occur at the other joint, in this case rotation about the subtalar axis. Reciprocally, where STJ ROM is restricted or exceeded in supination, the analogy of the universal joint means that this motion must then be resolved at the ankle joint, through the restricted motion of internal rotation of the talus within the ankle mortise; a motion limited by the lateral ligaments. With loss of subtalar motion (for any reason), the ankle has no relief from superimposed rotational forces as the leg rotates (43).
During a lateral ankle sprain the anterior talofibular ligament ruptures first as the limit of STJ ROM is reached, allowing the fibula to slide posteriorly, releasing the leg to externally rotate. As Rotation progresses, the calcaneofibular ligament is stressed and is the next to rupture. As this happens the loading appears to shift to the medial dorsal talus. This observation is consistent with the findings of Bruns and Rosenback (40) who demonstrated pressure increases on the medial talar border at a similar stage of ligament dissection. Along with other researchers (41,42,43) they have related the incidence of posteromedial osteochondral lesions to a history of lateral ankle sprains. Glick et al (24) however have demonstrated radiographically the inability of rigid tape to hold the talus within the ankle mortis for any time longer than 20 minutes and was in fact probably effective for less. Larsen (55) after similar findings had good reason to doubt the validity of ankle taping as a prophylaxis for chronically unstable ankles.
The obliquity of the ankle and the subtalar axes
(a) Anterior view (b) Lateral view (c) Top view
The shape of the articular surfaces is particularly important to the evaluation of components of joint motion. Ligaments guide and check excessive joint motion with fibre direction determining what motions are guided and limited (33). The ligaments which stabilise the ankle consist of the strong medial ligament, and the 3 bands of the lateral ligament. Together with the lateral malleolus they provide lateral stability to the ankle joint and stabilise the talus within the ankle mortise (34) (figure 1b and 2 b).
During contact the talus and lower leg function as one unit, the calcaneus and foot as another. During this phase the foot is fixed to the surface so that any rotation of the leg must be resolved through rotation at the STJ (32).
Lateral ankle sprain mechanics.
Rotary stability in a horizontal plane is provided by tension in the collateral ligaments and by compression of the articular surfaces. It is suggested rotary instability may be an additional factor in patients whose symptoms persist after injury to the lateral ligaments (35). The ankle and subtalar axes are shown in figure 3.
The AJ rather than the STJ is likely to be damaged during inversion stress since the thick and strong inter osseous talocalcaneal ligament (internal) and the joint capsule which maintain the joint's integrity are both close to the axis and to the applied force (figure 5a). When an inverting force is applied to the calcaneus a rotary torque is created about the STJ axis (figure 5b) along the moment arm X. When the limit of STJ motion is reached, the calcaneus and talus would then become a rigid lever Y (figure 5c). The torque is then transmitted to the ankle joint along this longer moment arm Y. If the loading force is rapid and is not resisted, the high impulse moment tending to separate the joint laterally may be greater than that which was applied about the subtalar axis.
Functional Instability
Functional instability (FI) of the ankle refers to repeated sprains or giving way of the ankle (freeman et al 1965) cited by (8, 19, 20, 23) and was a residual disability presenting in 20-40% of inversion sprains (19, 21). Smith and Reischl (46) report residual symptoms in 50% of young basketball players following lateral ligament injury. It has been proposed that injury my lead to a partial deafferentation of peripheral reflex mechanisms (23). Konradsen and Raven (23) measured the peripheral and central reaction times in unstable and stable subjects using a tilting trapdoor (figure 4a).
Figure 4 (a)Ankle inverting platform (45)
page 73 (b) Postural adjustment to
sudden ankle inversion (23) page 389.
They were able to show that peripheral reaction time was increased significantly (p <0.01) in FI subjects (84 ms vs. 69 ms) and that central reaction time was uncharged (20 ms). Central reaction time was the time from the first peroneal response to the first hamstring or quadriceps response which indicated supraspinal postural adjustments and a pressure relief through a shift in the center of pressure (figure 4b) (23). Springings and Pelton (45) demonstrated that the time for the foot to invert through 30 degrees stepping down from a height of 30 cm onto a collapsible platform was in the vicinity of 150 ms. It is postulated therefor that functional mechanisms will be insufficient to prevent lateral ligament injury during most sporting activities.
From this discussion it can be seen that during even mild inversion stress, motion could well progress past the midpoint of motion before any spinal level reflex can be anticipated (Peroneus Longus 65 ms, Peroneus Brevis ms), and still a further 20 ms is required before postural adjustments which further absorb shock and relieve pressure, can take place (23) (see figures 4a, 4b). Since it is anticipated that most sporting landings would be more rapid than the step down studied, inversion stress could easily disable reflex as a preventive mechanism (52).
The principle of ankle taping with its support structure established by anchors, stirrups and heel locks of rigid tape is widely used and recommended. The reports of the behaviour of this structure under exercise conditions were reviewed by the Author to identify the causes of loosening during exercise (62). The findings of this review are summarised.
The lateral stirrup and anchor sites were most affected, with tearing of the stirrups and/or displacement of the stirrup and anchor down the leg. Loosening occurred below each malleolus with the tape later functioning as a canvas boot.
Tensile stress concentrations within the stirrups, high impulse loading and shear stress at the skin – anchor and anchor – stirrup junctions were believed to be responsible for the loss of support strength as the foot attempted to accommodate a normal range of motion.
Perspiration contributed to loosening, affecting adhesion and inducing creep.
Statements of researchers such as Delarcerda (18) that "… the purpose of ankle taping is to reduce joint range of movement…." (p 78) have reinforced the traditional belief that to protect the ankle from injury it is necessary to restrict the ankle from inverting by limiting the ankle range of motion (ROM) in this direction.
Garrick and Requa (2) have proposed a theoretical aim of ankle taping "…to support externally a ligamentous structure without limiting normal range of motion or function. This support of ligaments need be present only when the physiologic or normal ranges of motion have been exceeded." (p 202). They also contend, "….the achievement of this goal, however, is virtually impossible." (p202).
Further, "… one must establish that restriction of normal motion is an adequate indicator of the protective influence of the method of support and has no other deleterious effects." (p202).
Gross, Lapp and Davis (17) evaluated the comparative effectiveness of Swede-o-Universal Ankle support (SO) (currently being used at the Australian Institute of Sport), Aircast Sport-Stirrup (AS) and ankle tape in restricting eversion-inversion ROM before and after exercise ( 10 minute figure eight running and 20 unilateral toe raises). The found that all support systems significantly reduced eversion and inversion both before and after exercise.
Robinson, Frederick and Cooper (27) used progressive stabilisation with rigid inserts insides high top basketball shoes and performance times on an obstacle course to examine the effects of systematic changes in ankle support on range of motion and performance. Their results showed that systematic changes in ankle and subtalar ROM did measurably and significantly affect performance. Several points raised in their discussion were of interest.
Firstly, "Directional changes require a large horizontal component of force. Positioning the leg while manoeuvring is accomplished by the normal ROM at the ankle and subtalar joints. If ankle motion is restricted, then the ability to position the leg to apply a large horizontal force component is reduced, decreasing manoeuvrability." P627).
Secondly, in agreement with Garrick and Requa (2), that support need only be present at the extremes of range, Robinson et al (27) state, "Obtaining this goal with current technology and traditions is improbable, therefore, prophylactic ankle support becomes a question of balance, with protection and performance at opposite ends of scale." (p 627). Lastly, they suggest, "Further work is needed to examine the concept of an optimum ROM and restriction for adequate performance and protection." (p 628). The comments of Garrick and Requa in 1973 that support at the limit of range of motion is "virtually impossible" (p202) can be understood in the context of materials and methods then available.
To suggest a compromise between natural function, performance and injury prevention, serves only to emphasise the degree of stagnation present within current ankle support design, research and use.
The restriction of natural range and function, difficulty of application and comfort considerations are some of the major reasons why sportspersons frequently compete without external prophylaxes. Since ankle prophylaxes reduce inversion ROM it can be anticipated that ROM reduction will reduce the capacity for the motion and range dependent responses to inversion stress.
The limit of motion is reached more quickly when inversion ROM is rigidly restricted and possible more frequently. Protective actions of peroneal reflex and postural adjustments are proportionately less likely to have evolved effect. The contraindications of this are that normal and abnormal inversion stresses, instead of being dissipated by muscle and postural adjustments which spread the stress over time are transferred to the leg with an impulse dependent upon the rigidly of the support material.
The effects of these repeated low loadings and occasional high impulse loadings upon the development of over-use syndromes and the ligamentous integrity of the lower limb respectively, has not been investigated. With the development of quantitative assessment techniques, it should be possible to demonstrate the effects of limitation of natural range imposed by current techniques. It will not only require that it be shown that range restrictions are detrimental to performance, function and ligamentous integrity (if this is in fact so), but that an alternative must also be available. These concerns are consistent with Ferguson (1), and relate to the importance of the "ankle safety valve".
Improvements indicated at the skin- anchor junction are directed at enhancing shear holding, stress and perspiration dissipation, whilst more effective attachment of the stirrup to the anchor is implied.
By making the stirrups from an elastic material capable of storing and transmitting injurious forces over time to the anchor sites, the impulse related to stirrup and anchor displacement in taping is reduced. Injurious forces imposed on the calcaneus will be substantially dissipated during rotation about the subtalar joint with dissipation of this force to the lower limb through extrinsic (attachment to the skin) and intrinsic (muscle forces, postural adjustments) pathways.
It would be desired to make the smallest size available to young children so that they can be protected from an early injury which could present with future complications (functional instability, osteochondral lesions, etc.).
To ensure ease of application and diversity of use the substantially re-useable brace is implied. This is a consideration for use in rehabilitation since access to treatment modalities in desired.
An ankle orthosis should be able to provide minimal restriction of motion at the neutral position, with support increasing to maximum at the elastic limit of joint motion.
Adjustment is desired for selecting the required amount of inversion, plantar flexed inversion and for correction of talar alignment at heel strike. The features are essential if the orthosis is to be used to non-rigidly correct rearfoot varus and valgus conditions.
During rehabilitation active range of function must be controlled so that appositional healing of ligaments is encouraged. This is achieved by superiorly directed non-rigid support of the talus within the ankle mortis for extended periods.
The maintenance of ankle joint articular surface contact must be achieved however without causing compensatory motion of the talus in the ankle mortis as a result of restriction of subtalar range of motion.
Section 3: Current Pilots & research
KiSS Ankle System - University of Sydney Faculty of Health Sciences collaboration
This document describes the collaboration between the Musculoskeletal Health Research laboratory at the University of Sydney and KiSS ankle brace.
University of Sydney Musculoskeletal Health Research Lab: The MSKH group at the Faculty of Health Sciences has a vision to cure pain and disability associated with musculoskeletal conditions. Our mission is to conduct excellent well-funded collaborative multidisciplinary research which is highly translational to prevent, treat and reduce the burden of pain and disability associated with musculoskeletal conditions. We are interested in assessing the mechanistic and clinical effects of the KiSS brace. Trial aims will be decided by collaborative agreement, but the study design, method, analysis, and results will be conducted independently from KiSS.
KiSS Ankle Systems are designed to provide two substantive benefits over existing braces and taping methods. Those benefits are superior 'safety' when used for prevention and 'medical intent' to provide 'optimal loading' of ligament and cartilage for 'innate' or Biologically and/or surgically assisted repair/regeneration. To date no method or device can reduce sprains without considerable compromise of function or natural responses to injury. Further no device has ever been shown to maintain the talocrural joint over time, hence neither mobilize acute sprains nor repair lateral ankle ligaments.
We propose a crossover study of about 30 participants with CAI. After baseline measurements, half of the participants will start using the brace while the other half will continue without the brace. At 3 weeks the groups will swap interventions. Clinical and biomechanical tests will be done at baseline, pre and post brace application), 3 weeks and 6 weeks. 16 participants (8 in each group) will also undergo a biomechanical evaluation.
Equipment: 30 braces of different sizes, 16 camera/6 force plate biomechanical lab, SEBT platform, isokinetic dynamometer, Zeno, tape measure, goniometers, stop watch, Smartspeed equipment
Biomechanical experiments will be performed on 16 healthy young adults. Data will be recorded in the Biomechanics laboratory at the University of Sydney after ethics approval from the University's Human Research Ethics committee. Each participant will provide written informed consent prior to participating in the study. All participations are to be able to walk unassisted and free from any pathology that could influence their ability to walk normally.
Each participant will perform 3/4 sports tasks while wearing and not wearing KiSS; these sports tasks are side-cutting, vertical jump, drop-landing and drop-jumping. All participants must be familiar with performing these tasks and will be given appropriate familiarisation time. Kinematics and force-plate data will be recorded simultaneously for each trial. The three-dimensional positions of the retro-reflective markers will be attached to each subject and recorded using a video motion capture system (Motional Analysis Corporation) with 16 cameras sampling at 100Hz. Ground reaction forces are to be measured using 5 piezoelectric charged force plates (Kistler Corporation) with a sampling rate of 100Hz.
Scaled-generic linked segment models will be developed by scaling a 10-segment, 23 degree-of-freedom generic model of the body. Scaled-generic models will be created by scaling segment lengths and segment inertial properties for individual subject anthropometry. For each instant of the task duration, a set of optimal joint angles will be calculated by minimizing the sum of the squares of the differences between the positions of markers defined virtually in the computer model and the reflective markers adhered to the subject. The net joint moments will then be computed by applying the calculated values of joint angles and measured ground reaction forces to the model using inverse dynamics. Results will then be averaged across all subjects for each condition (with and without KiSS). One-way repeated measures ANOVA will be used to detect statistical significance for each dependent variable between the KiSS- and no- intervention groups.

After the win over Arizona, coach Lorenzo Romar was asked to look forward a bit to that next tournament:
"We felt from the beginning of the year if we came out and played Husky basketball and played the way we were capable of, we'd have a chance to be successful in most any game," he said. "So we'll go see. We'll see what happens. It's a good time for us to be playing together and playing right. I know that much. Where we go, what comes of the field of 68, you just wait for the call, prepare yourself and you go."
Here's the invitation from the school:
The Huskies just won the Pac-10 Basketball Tournament! Please join Coach Romar and the team tomorrow, Sunday, March 13 in the Don James Center at Husky Stadium to watch the NCAA Selection Show. The Don James Center is located inside Husky Stadium on the second level of the north side. Parking is free on Sundays in the E-1 parking lot.
This is a FREE event for all Husky fans. Coffee, lemonade, and light snacks will be provided. Doors open at 2:30 p.m. and the show starts at 3:00 p.m.
No RSVP necessary, bring your friends, show up and support your Dawgs!
Romar also was asked what other Pac-10 teams he thinks are deserving of a call today:
"Based on being able to play those teams, I'd say they're all capable," he said. "Theway SC defends, and with their front line and the quickness of their guards, you just don't face that alot. I think if they get invited to this tournament, they definitely could advance.UCLA's starting five is very, very, very talented. They've got a big front line. They've gotsome scorers in there. They come out ready to play, and they obviously could make some noise.Arizona, I think they could play with anyone. They defend. Derrick Williams is so hardto deal with. They can shoot it, so they have a chance. I hope we get four in, because it will befun to watch this conference."

Our most popular acoustic foam, wedge foam outperforms and outlasts the competition at affordable pricing. Because our foam is machine cut, you can expect it to be nearly identical, side to side. Wedge foam provides outstanding sound absorption qualities, a professional appearance and minimal installation effort.
This two inch wedge foam is effective against flutter echoes and standing waves in rooms such as vocal booths, control rooms and studios. The triangle wedge is also a great full frequency bandwidth absorber for any size of room when it's paired with corner blocks, bass traps or male/female broadband absorbers. They can also help absorb sound frequencies omitting from the other side of doors or by building panels that can moved around instead of mounted on walls.
We offer many variant packages and sizes of this particular style of triangle wedge foam.
We also offer this product in 14 colors.
Rosey Beige
*Overall NRC Rating = 0.65
All acoustical products meet ASTM E84 Class A and California 117 flame retardancy specifications. In simpler terms, this means that brief exposure to fire might cause the foam to flame, it would self-extinguish.
We do not encourage anyone to try fire retardancy tests due in any way, shape or form. Always make sure to check building codes to meet your area's regulation codes before installing any acoustic foam purchase from us.
