  • Everyone's Game
    EVERYONE’S GAME PROGRESS PLAN A WAY FORWARD Soccer in the United States is at an infection point. In the two-plus decades since the World Cup came to the U.S., MLS launched, and our Women’s team won the frst Women’s World Cup, we have made tremendous strides as a soccer nation. But now—to ignite the next phase of growth—we need new vision and new leadership. The U.S. Soccer Federation has risen with the tide of interest of the game in the U.S., generating record profts and an impressive sur- plus. Yet while riding that fnancial wave, it has also lost touch with the grassroots soul of the sport, failed to invest in success at all levels of the soccer pyramid, and, most importantly, overlooked the critical role of its membership in helping build an enduring soccer culture. Over the past several months, I have traveled the widespread perception that the standing of individuals nation and have spoken with hundreds of U.S. Soccer and associations in our soccer family has less to do with members, coaches, athletes, administrators, referees, merit and more to do with the favor of those at the top. and fans. From these conversations, it is clear that the We need not just a new leader but a culture change in Federation is failing to adequately serve its members. leadership, a new approach that is inclusive, transparent, Our nation is full of association and club leaders, and empowering. coaches, players, and parents who love this game— many of them have devoted their lives to helping grow That is what I intend to bring to the Presidency.

  • IDA Heritage Book
    Forward This book is dedicated to all who have been members of the door dealer associations and the contributions that each has made to the advancement of OUR industry. September 2015 Heritage of the International Door Association 1 Acknowledgments The compilation of this book would not have been possible without the efforts of many people. As Chairman of the Heritage Committee, I would like to personally acknowledge Michael Overbay, and Joyce Clingman for pouring through 30,000+ documents and the Heritage Committee mem- bers for their efforts in getting this to print. And finally, a special thank you to the Past Presidents who shared their reflections, thoughts and leadership in bringing us to where we are today. Theodore J. Billman 2002 Heritage Committee Chairman Heritage of the International Door Association 2 Preface The International Door Association was created with the merger in 1996 of the Far Western Garage Door Association and the Door & Operator Dealers Association. It’s colorful history reaches back to March, 1967, and is reflective of the numerous changes realized by the door systems industry. The most common IDA denominator is people, both those who have led the association, and those who have supported it in many other ways. It is because of many courageous volunteer visionaries that the predecessor associations (FWGDA and DODA) were organized. It was that same vision that ultimately brought the two groups together, creating a meaningful and valuable international organization. The purpose of this document is to capture the history of IDA for current and future reflection. By knowing our history, by examining our foundation, we will continue to build a strong and viable door dealer association far into the future.

  • Kahlil Gibran a Tear and a Smile (1950)
    “perplexity is the beginning of knowledge…” Kahlil Gibran A Tear and A Smile (1950) STYLIN’! SAMBA JOY VERSUS STRUCTURAL PRECISION THE SOCCER CASE STUDIES OF BRAZIL AND GERMANY Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Susan P. Milby, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Melvin Adelman, Adviser Professor William J. Morgan Professor Sarah Fields _______________________________ Adviser College of Education Graduate Program Copyright by Susan P. Milby 2006 ABSTRACT Soccer playing style has not been addressed in detail in the academic literature, as playing style has often been dismissed as the aesthetic element of the game. Brief mention of playing style is considered when discussing national identity and gender. Through a literature research methodology and detailed study of game situations, this dissertation addresses a definitive definition of playing style and details the cultural elements that influence it. A case study analysis of German and Brazilian soccer exemplifies how cultural elements shape, influence, and intersect with playing style. Eight signature elements of playing style are determined: tactics, technique, body image, concept of soccer, values, tradition, ecological and a miscellaneous category. Each of these elements is then extrapolated for Germany and Brazil, setting up a comparative binary. Literature analysis further reinforces this contrasting comparison. Both history of the country and the sport history of the country are necessary determinants when considering style, as style must be historically situated when being discussed in order to avoid stereotypification. Historic time lines of significant German and Brazilian style changes are determined and interpretated.
