For each position in your formation you will need to select a player role and duty. There are several different roles to choose from, each with up to three available duties.
Each possible role and duty combination in a particular position gives a different set of player instructions to whichever player is selected in that position. These instructions are also affected by your team instructions, as well as any specific player instructions that you set to further refine the player's behaviour later.
The three main duties are defend, support and attack. These essentially indicate how defensive or attacking the player's instructions are. For some roles an automatic duty can be set, which will effectively assign one of these three duties according to how defensive or attacking the currently set mentality is. Two further duties, stopper and cover, are also available for roles in the central defender positions but these will be discussed later.
Read Inverting the Pyramid to further improve your tactical knowledge and understanding.
Provided below for each available player role (and its available duties) are:
- The role's description - this is the description given for the role in the game. This should give you a basic idea of how a player is instructed to play when using a particular role and duty.
- Active player instructions - these are the specific player instructions marked as already active for each role and duty combination as given in the game. This should give you a further understanding of how a player is instructed to play when using a particular role and duty.
- Key attributes - these are the attributes considered to be the most important for each role and duty combination as given in the game. This should help you decide whether a player's attributes make him suitable for a particular role and duty.
- Preferred moves - these include complementary preferred moves and potentially useful preferred moves. This should help you decide whether a player's preferred moves make him suitable for a particular role and duty. The complementary preferred moves are those that give a player a greater tendency to perform actions instructed by the role and duty. The useful preferred moves are those that you may wish to consider in particular for a player assigned that role to learn, not including any which give tendencies that can be essentially replicated by specific player instructions.
How to Choose Roles and Duties
Roles and duties should be chosen by considering the following:
- Which roles and duties combine well together to achieve a balanced tactic - this will be discussed in detailed positional analyses for goalkeepers, central defenders, central midfielders, wide players and strikers. Generally speaking though, to create a well balanced tactic more defensive and more attacking roles and duties should be evenly mixed accross all areas of the pitch.
- Which roles and duties suit your tactical style - this will also be discussed in each of the positional analyses.
- Which roles and duties suit the abilities and preferred moves of your individual players - the role descriptions, key attributes, active player instructions and useful preferred moves given below can help you to assess this. Further information can be found in the positional analyses, the Specific Player Instructions guide and the Preferred Moves guide.
Selecting Auto Assign Roles and Auto Assign Duties from the Tactic drop-down menu will automatically assign a set of generic roles with balanced duties. However, as discussed earlier, the more structured your team shape is, the more important it is to specifically define each player's responsibilities by choosing more specialist roles.
The positional analyses will assume for simplicity that a flexible team shape is being used. You will also have to consider the effects of your chosen team instructions and specific player instructions on each player. For example, a Limited Defender will normally make more direct passes but these will be shortened if you are using the Play Out Of Defence team instruction.

The First Kentucky Brigade was part of the Confederate Army. It became known as the "Orphan Brigade" after Union troops captured Fort Donelson (1862), leaving the brigade cut off from its home state for the duration of the war. Dispite this, the Orphan Brigade distinguished itself on and off the battlefield by maintaining high morale, discipline, and effective military tactics even though they lost two brigadier generals in battle: Roger Weightman Hanson and Benjamin Hardin Helm. Regiments from the brigade fought with distinction in the Battles of Shiloh, Cornith, Vicksburg, Stone's River, Chickamauga, and Missionary Ridge. Only about five hundred of the original four thousand ment survived to the war's end. The brigade was one of the last Confederate groups east of the Mississippi to surrender.

Solid chalkboard
Annie from Philadelphia, PA – Verified Buyer
Great quality chalkboard. Very heavy and durable. Will last a long time. The only drawback is that it doesn't come with screws for hanging, so you would either need to hire someone to put this up or visit a hardware store to find screws to use.
Awesome Chalkboard

I'll vote for fiber doing everything better. Do alot of initial work prints in RC, then it is off to fiber for the finished product. To me there is just nothing quite as nice as a fiber print - but as was stated earlier, it is what I am used to. By the way, I hang mine from one end and let them drip-dry. Takes about a day and yes they do curl, but a quick pass in the old heat press and they have lost most of the curl. After a couple of days they are as flat a the RC.
I've noticed that RC seems thicker, but I think it is due to the plastic coating giving it a thicker feel.

Any ideas on how to increase supply in my afternoon session? I seem to get close to 9oz in the morning (10:30 - 11 am) but a mere 3-4 oz in the afternoon session (3 - 3:30 pm). I tried waiting longer, but that does not seem to increase the amount.
I'll probably drop the afternoon session entirely in a couple of months, but YDD is 9 months old, would like to avoid supplementing if I can for another few months.

Ben's Chili Bowl opens new restaurant on H Street in D.C.Sam Ford, ABC 7 News
WASHINGTON (WJLA) - Ben's Chili Bowl has opened a new restaurant on H Street in D.C. The restaurant had a soft opening Monday evening in preparation for a big opening at 11 a.m. Wednesday, July 8, for a ribbon cutting ceremony. Employees put the finishing touches on the new restaurant decorating the walls with photos of significant visitors from President Barack Obama and others. Workers prepared food for Monday's event which featured hot dogs and its famous chili which has been a staple of the business since it first opened on U Street in 1958. In addition to the new H Street location, Ben's Chili Bowl has locations in Arlington and Reagan National Airport.
Georgetown gas stations disappearing due to soaring land valuesSam Ford, ABC 7 News
WASHINGTON (WJLA) - The number of service stations in the Georgetown area are dwindling due to soaring land values. Three out of four stations have been sold to developers who plan to use the land for restaurants, apartments and condos. People really need a place to gas up their cars and to have repairs made, said D.C. Councilmember Mary Cheh, who chairs the councils Transportation Committee. Cheh supported a bill the council passed last week that said a gas station owner can only sell a gas station to someone that will maintain it as a gas station. It will save the remaining gas stations," said Cheh. Developer Anthony Lanier told ABC7 News that he paid $4 million for the Valero station at Pennsylvania and M, NW and $8 million for the Exxon station near the Key Bridge. Lanier said he will build a restaurant and apartments at the Pennsylvania site. Lanier hasn't determined what he will do with the Key Bridge site which is near the famous steps from the movie, The Exorcist. Also slated for the chopping block, is the Exxon station at Wisconsin and Q, NW. A Shell station across the street is the only station in Georgetown that will not close. The high priced land values in Georgetown have increased the price of row homes which are selling for at least $1 million. Some believe the land is too valuable to be used for gas stations.

Touting progress, Obama says Islamic State is losing groundThe Associated Press, ABC 7 News, Scott Thuman
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama portrayed the U.S.-led coalition Monday as gaining ground against the Islamic State amid an expanded U.S. effort and ample signs of progress, but conceded more difficulties ahead in fighting what he described as a nimble and opportunistic enemy. "We're starting to see some progress," the president said during a rare visit to the Pentagon, ticking off a list of towns in Iraq and Syria he said had been wrested from IS control in recent weeks. Flanked by top military commanders, Obama also warned of the Islamic State's efforts to recruit and inspire vulnerable people in the United States, and called on the American-Muslim community to "step up in terms of pushing back as hard as they can." He said that while the U.S. is now better prepared to thwart large-scale terrorist attacks like 9/11, the threat from individual "lone wolves" or small terrorist cells has increased. "We're going to have to pick up our game to prevent these attacks," Obama said. The Pentagon visit followed a wave of weekend airstrikes by the U.S.-led coalition in eastern Syria - one of the most sustained aerial operations carried out in Syria to date, the U.S.-led coalition said. Obama pointed to those and other airstrikes as proof of an intensified U.S. effort to undermine the militant group's base of operations and cut off their sources of funding. Obama's afternoon visit to the Pentagon offered a public display of presidential support for the military one day before Defense Secretary Ash Carter and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Martin Dempsey were expected to be grilled on Capitol Hill. Senate Armed Services Chairman John McCain, R-Ariz., has sharply criticized Obama for not doing more militarily to defeat IS, and said Monday that the U.S. is losing the battle as the extremist group continues to gain territory in Iraq and Syria. "President Obama's comments today reveal the disturbing degree of self-delusion that characterizes the administration's campaign against ISIL," McCain said. Although the president said there were "no current plans" to send more U.S. troops to Iraq, he did not rule out that possibility in the future. Obama has vowed to keep American service members out of direct combat, but has sent more than 3,000 U.S. troops to advise and assist the beleaguered Iraqi military - including the deployment of 450 additional service members announced last month. Efforts to train local forces in Iraq and Syria, however, have been slow to take shape. Last month, Obama acknowledged that the U.S. lacks a "complete strategy" for training Iraqi troops to carry out ground missions. And in Syria, fewer than 100 rebels are being trained by the U.S., far fewer than the goal of producing 5,400 fighters a year. AP White House Correspondent Julie Pace contributed to this report.

Parades, fireworks, concerts: America celebrates 239th birthdayThe Associated Press, Rebecca Cooper, Roz Plater, Richard Reeve
WASHINGTON (WJLA) - Parades, fireworks, naturalization ceremonies, eating contests and music ushered in the Fourth of July as the United States marked 239 years as an independent nation on Saturday. Here were some highlights of Independence Day celebrations: __ MUSIC, CULTURAL CELEBRATIONS ON NATIONAL MALL Heavy rainstorms drenched the region around the White House Saturday, forcing a cancellation of an annual July Fourth picnic for military members and their families on the South Lawn. Still, many festivities in Washington proceeded as scheduled, including a fife and drum corps, parade and concerts on the National Mall. As morning rains cleared, the capital's Fourth of July parade kicked off. The parade featured marching bands, floats and balloons with plenty of red, white and blue. The U.S. Air Force Band performs Saturday evening on the Washington Monument grounds. The big event is the "Capitol Fourth" concert on the west lawn of the Capitol, featuring Barry Manilow and the National Symphony Orchestra. President Barack Obama was scheduled to make brief remarks prior to fireworks. ___ PIT SPITTING A 15-year-old girl won the women's division of the 42nd annual cherry spitting contest in Eau Claire, Michigan, by sending a pit farther than anyone else: 49 1/4 feet. "I just took a deep breath and pushed hard," said Megan Ankrapp of Buchanan. "I was shocked." Kevin Bartz won the championship with a spit of 48 feet and 8 inches. Ankrapp was not allowed to participate in the overall championship round because her earlier spits were too short to qualify. Bartz said he was excited to finally beat Brian Krause, the 2014 champ, but then realized a teenager had sent a pit farther than he did. "I look up and say, 'Wait a minute. One of the girls beat me,'" said Bartz, 48. "It's not quite as exciting." ___ NEW CITIZENS SWORN IN Naturalization ceremonies big and small were held across the U.S. The director of the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services' Baltimore district administered the oath of allegiance to 40 people from 27 countries during a ceremony at The Engineers Club in Baltimore.

Officials say over 4,000 new citizens were welcomed in more than 50 naturalization ceremonies across the country from July 1 through July 4. ___ PRESIDENTIAL HOPEFULS CAMPAIGN IN PARADES Parades across Iowa and New Hampshire were clear reminders of the race for the White House: Red balloons promoting "Jeb! 2016," a tractor draped in a Rick Perry banner and dutiful volunteers holding signs and chanting. Former Govs. Jeb Bush of Florida, Rick Perry of Texas and Lincoln Chafee of Rhode Island as well as South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham worked the crowd in Amherst, while Hillary Rodham Clinton marched in a parade in New Hampshire's North Country. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio spent the holiday in New Hampshire's Lakes Region, as Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley met voters in Iowa. ___ AN OREGON FOURTH The Portland suburb of Hillsboro held a Fourth of July parade Saturday afternoon that featured about 135 entries, ranging from marching bands to fire trucks and plenty of candy for the kids.

Gail Halvorsen, 94, also known as the "Candy Bomber," dropped 1,000 chocolate bars attached to tiny parachutes at Scera Park on Friday. He flew over the area three times before releasing the cargo into the hands of the children below. Deb Jackson, co-chair of the event, estimated more than 50,000 people stood in 100-degree Fahrenheit temperatures to watch the 4 p.m. drop. Halvorsen flew in a fixed-wing bomber from World War II with two escort planes attending, the Daily Herald of Provo reported. ___ DECLARATION SIGNING Visitors to the National Archives building in Washington were invited to sign replicas of the Declaration of Independence.

Harris' Heroes spotlights Michelle Mach, Longview School in GermantownLeon Harris, ABC 7 News
GERMANTOWN, Md. (WJLA) - A Montgomery County school is not just making a difference in the lives of children with severe special needs. The school administrator is saving lives. April Crohare said it was the scariest moment of her life, when her young son Charlie stopped breathing. She was just leaving the special needs school and checked on her son in the backseat, and he was grey, Crohare said. Charlie, like all the other children at Longview School in Germantown, has severe special needs, and on this day he needed emergency medical care. I took him out of his care seat. I gave him two rescue breaths, and we continued supporting him until the rescue squad arrived, said Michelle Mach, a school administrator for Longview School. Crohare credits Mach and Charlies private nurse with saving her sons life. Mach said its just part of the job. Thats the only way we can make Longview work, said Mach. We have to take care of the health and safety of the kids. We are a second family. At Longview, they celebrate not just birthdays, but each childs accomplishments, no matter how small which Mach said might take one year, two years, three years. Its all about focusing on students potential and providing them the environment to flourish. I want [parents] to see the things their child can be, that their child can be a child, and we can give them every opportunity to do what any other child is doing.

WBAL-TV reports that a woman sent the station photos she snapped Tuesday when van doors were left open near the central district station.

Most teams have played around 81 games by now, so the baseball season is half over. It's a good time to assess which players on your team are likely to decline—and thus give you a chance to trade them to a desperate owner that doesn't know any better. Likewise, you can scour league rosters for those players who have underachieved and smile all the way to October when they have superb second halves.

Sandy and the Age of Superstorms
Has Hurricane Sandy inaugurated a new age of climate fueled superstorms? Environmentalist Peter Sinclair interviews hurricane expert Dr. Kerry Emanuel of MIT, and Dr. Jason Box of the Byrd Polar Center.
Has Hurricane Sandy inaugurated a new age of climate fueled superstorms? Environmentalist Peter Sinclair interviews hurricane expert Dr. Kerry Emanuel of MIT, and Dr. Jason Box of the Byrd Polar Center.
Notice that in this ridiculous video clip from Fox News (posted at YouTube by his office), arch climate change denier James Inhofe never actually says specifically why the Benghazi attack will "go down as the biggest coverup in history."
The leaders of the Republican Party are determined to continue hideously embarrassing themselves with this bone-headed bogus issue, and there's no talking them down from the ledge. I'm starting to think someone slipped LSD into the food at the Congressional cafeteria.
NPR has details: U.N. Votes to Give Palestinians 'Non-Member Observer State' Status.
Exactly 65 years after the General Assembly, convened at Lake Success, New York, voted to divide Palestine between a Jewish state and an Arab one, the same body voted 138 to 9 in favor of recognizing the State of Palestine.
The United States and Israel voted against the measure, while France and Spain voted in favor. Great Britain and Germany, both major powers and important U.S. allies, abstained from the vote.
As Mark reported earlier, this vote gives Palestinians the same status as the Vatican, but perhaps more importantly, it gives Palestinians access to other U.N. bodies like the International Criminal Court, where Palestinians could launch complaints against Israel.
The United States has repeatedly said that this was not the right way toward a resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
"This resolution is not going to take [Palestinian's] closer to statehood," Victoria Nuland, a spokeswoman for the State Department, said in a briefing yesterday. "It does nothing to get them closer to statehood, and it may actually make the environment more difficult."
The resolution reaffirms the "the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination, including the right to their independent State of Palestine," and also declares the Palestine Liberation Organization the "representative of the Palestinian people."
How to spin the wingnuts up into frenzied, frothing paroxysms of total rage, and have a well-qualified Secretary of State at the same time: Al Gore for Secretary of State!
I first heard this suggestion from my friend David Greenberg, the historian who writes for Slate, and I thought, nahhh. But it grew on me pretty fast. Tell me why not. He'd be great. He's known around the world. He's respected around the world, about 90 percent of which surely wishes he'd been the president instead of the guy he beat. I'm not saying he'd change the world; no one can do that. But he'd get a hearing everywhere. He knows a huge number of world leaders, and he knows the issues cold. He could dive right into the pool's deepest end, in the Middle East, on Iran, you name it.
What about his climate-change crusade, you wonder? Far from having to drop his signature issue, Gore could use his new position to push it with even greater vigor in a global context. Gore, and probably Gore alone, would be capable of elevating the climate change issue to the position it deserves on the national and global stage.
What we don't know that much about is the Gore-Obama relationship. In 2007 and 2008, Gore clearly tilted toward Obama (Gore's mere refusal to endorse Hillary Clinton over Obama indicated as much). Gore didn't endorse Obama until right after he'd secured the nomination, but the two were said to have talked regularly. That's good enough.
Finally: Man, would I love to see the Republicans try to swat down a Gore nomination. How? They'd poke around in his finances, remind America that he's now divorced. But unless there were some kind of smoking gun on the former point, no one would care. They could not really block Gore; too much stature, too obviously qualified. Can you imagine? John McCain would grind his teeth, assuming those still are his teeth, down to dust. That would be awesome to watch.
I'm agnostic about whether PBO should nominate Rice for Secretary of State after Hillary Clinton leaves Foggy Bottom next year, but this lead paragraph from a story in today's Washington Post has to be about the most brain-dead thing from a non-RWNJ source I've read in months:
The choice of a successor to Hillary Rodham Clinton as secretary of state has turned into an unexpectedly nasty political fight that could cost the White House valuable goodwill with Republicans.
Seriously, Washington Post? There's GOP "good will" for the White House? Have you been paying attention to anything in the past four years?
Sigh. This is why we can never have nice things.

Speech-Language Pathology Assistants in the United States are largely women. The group as a whole has a nationwide average of $20.03 per hour for pay. Compensation ranges between $13.60 per hour and $32.31. Residence is the biggest factor affecting pay for this group, followed by years of experience. Not all workers are lucky enough to have benefits; in fact, two in five are without coverage. Medical insurance is claimed by more than half and dental insurance is reported by just over two-fifths. Work is enjoyable for Speech-Language Pathology Assistants, who typically claim high levels of job satisfaction. The numbers in this rundown were provided by PayScale's salary survey participants.

Add this chart to your site:
Copy and paste this HTML:
Speech-language pathology assistants (SLPAs) undergo academic and on-the-job training. These assistants have been available to people since the 1970s. The assistants have to be able to work with individuals from all ages and backgrounds. They help to administer hearing, speech, and language evaluations and tests, and help to examine the patients. SPLAs assist in developing and implementing treatment plans for stuttering, delayed language, or voice problems. They also observe and document the progress and treatment of the patient and monitor the operation of equipment and record the use of this equipment. They can also transport patients to and from treatment areas, lift and transfer them according to positioning requirements, and secure them into or onto therapy equipment. They also have to comply with regulations and requirements set forth for SLPAs. Though these assistants have a wide range of responsibilities, they also have to be aware of certain tasks that they are not allowed to perform or develop, and they must modify any treatment plan given to the patient. They are not allowed to perform standardized diagnostic tests or interpret the test results. They are also not allowed to screen or diagnose the patients or participate in parent conferences or case conferences. SLPAs cannot discharge or make referrals for patients. Most importantly, they cannot represent themselves as a speech-language pathologist. SLPAs need to have at least an associate's degree from a technical training program. This career can be a very challenging and stimulating job. However, the gratification one feels from helping others far outweighs any challenges they may face.
Speech-Language Pathology Assistants report a narrow range of specific skills. Most notably, skills in Autism, Spanish Language, Speech Pathology, and Bilingual are correlated to pay that is above average. Those with knowledge of Spanish Language tend to be skilled in Speech Pathology as well.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
The average inexperienced worker's salary is approximately $40K, and people with five to 10 years of experience bring in more at around $43K on average. Speech-Language Pathology Assistants with one to two decades of relevant experience report an average salary of approximately $41K. Big financial gains seem to result from working for more than two decades; veterans in this group report earning $49K on average.

Seeking Intelligent Life
Music is my first love. I tested twelfth grade, ninth month at the age of six. That means I was as smart as a high school graduate. The test was over behavioral problems and followed hearing and metabolic tests. My hearing is hyper-acute (hyperacuity) and my metabolic rate just barely qualified as normal. 1984 just didn't have much to offer the likes of me. I was so hooked on phonics. I could use a Commodore 64 before I spoke, and I probably couldn't figure it out today. I started speaking a little late, and my first words were "I want some supper." I want some supper. I'm an ex-lotsofthings and currently working in a very, very high-tech field and it's hard to explain. I'm a rave casualty sort of. Currently, my dog is under my keyboard like a lap desk and he seems to appreciate having a function besides cuddling. We were square at cuddling, boy. Submitted from mobile
Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Playing cards , Political interests , Video games
Billiards / Pool, Other types of exercise, Swimming, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines, Yoga
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I have Dogs
I like the river, Rorabeck's Produce, my living room, and the thought of the little jazz bar that closed in downtown Stuart.
I love comedies and music, so Austin City Limits, SNL, Nick Swardson's Pretend Time, Workaholics, Always Sunny, 30 Rock, Archer, and Breaking Bad.
I hang out with my dog, play video games, listen to music, watch television and movies.
I avoid reading print. This is a now-primitive and since you can fit a forest of printed text on a device the size of your fingernail, stop pulping and bleaching the forest and you'll get to see the text backlit by LEDs. It'll blow your mind.

William Wallace sat around the small fire waiting for the game they had just killed to cook, and contemplated the events that had brought him thus far. It had been a long journey fraught with hardships no one should be made to endure. There had been the death of his family at the hands of King Edward I (Longshanks), living with his Uncle Argyle, who not only taught him how to fight, but about the world as well.
After returning from Europe, William wanted to forget his past and become a farmer. He married his childhood sweetheart, only to see her brutally murdered by the local English magistrate.
It was that action that has thrust him out of the peaceful life he longed for into becoming the de-facto leader of his countrymen today.
His men were in pretty good spirits after the latest encounter with the English... Longshanks was in France, leaving his son Prince Edward in charge of the war effort. He was at best inexperienced, and his military advisor, Phillip was not helping to turn the tide in England's favor.
There was an explosion of noise throughout the camp, as a runner came dashing up to where William was sitting.
"I have news from England!" the runner, MacGregor choked out as he stood panting before the assembled men. "Prince Edward has changed tactics, and it is rumored that he has infiltrated our ranks in an attempt to kill us before we can assemble for the next battle!"
"Then we will have to be extra vigilant" Wallace replied. "There is nothing we can do for now. Rest now and we will discuss options in the morning."
Wallace looked around at his fellow countrymen. Sitting next to his father, Campbell the Elder, was Hamish Campbell. He like his father was a huge mass of a man, who had been Wallace's best friend since childhood. His brute strength and companionship had helped in the past, and he was sure he would be needed to get past the current troubles.
Stephen the Irishman has already proven himself in the past by foiling an attempt on Wallace's life, so he knew he could be trusted. William reasoned he could send him to his friend Robert the Bruce for assistance. Robert was a Scottish noble that had land rights in both England and Scotland, and as such could act as a spy, being trusted by the English.
William also had one more person he could lean on, Prince Edward's wife, if only in title, Princess Isabelle, who might be able to get advance warning to Wallace and thwart any attempts on him or his men's lives.
It was already dark, and as such no plans could be put into motion until the morning.

Night 1 will end Wed at 10PM EST to give players a chance to confirm.

4chan used to be nice some long time ago. have you ever heard the story of the old man that asked for people to come to his birthday party because he had no friends left? 4chan heard about that and made him the most awesome birthday party ever. its a really beautiful story.
