...Defenders For the defence Rodgers brought in three defenders- Dejan Lovren, Alberto Moreno and Javier Manquillo. Dejan Lovren seemed to excite a lot of Liverpool fans when he signed in the summer. A transfer fee of £20 million after a great season in the successful Southampton side which managed an 8th placed finish. Lovren has made a slow but steady start. He has showed some signs of promise, being tall, strong and winning balls. However there is still signs of that shaky defence from last season with Lovren now in the centre of the chaos as we have already conceded 15 goals in 11 games. This season. Rodgers brought in two Spaniards. Javier Manquillo, a right back, and Alberto Moreno, a left back. Javier Manquillo, who is on loan from Atletico Madrid for the season, looks promising but he is only 20 and still has a lot to learn when it comes to both defending and going forward. Moreno, another young full back at 22, looks good going forward, with a lot of pace and power shown especially with his goal in the 4-0 beating of Spurs at White Hart Lane, however at 22 he can still improve defensively, but with the reds splashing out £12 million from Sevilla on the Spaniard, he really needs to step up, along with the rest of the back four. Midfielders Rodgers brought in three midfielders. These were Emre Can, a central midfielder, Adam Lallana, who can play on the right of midfield or in the number 10 role, and Lazar Markovic who is a winger. The next signing we will come to is...

...A compound word is made when two words are joined to form a new word. Definition In English, words, particularly adjectives and nouns, are combined into compound structures in a variety of ways. And once they are formed, they sometimes metamorphose over time. A common pattern is that two words — fire fly, say — will be joined by a hyphen for a time — fire-fly — and then be joined into one word — firefly. In this respect, a language like German, in which words are happily and immediately linked one to the other, might seem to have an advantage. There is only one sure way to know how to spell compounds in English: use an authoritative dictionary. There are three forms of compound words: the closed form, in which the words are melded together, such as firefly, secondhand, softball, childlike, crosstown, redhead, keyboard, makeup, notebook; the hyphenated form, such as daughter-in-law, master-at-arms, over-the-counter, six-pack, six-year-old, mass-produced; and the open form, such as post office, real estate, middle class, full moon, half sister, attorney general. How a word modified by an adjective — "a little school," "the yellow butter" — is different from a compound word — " a high school," "thepeanut butter" — is a nice and philosophical question. It clearly has something to do with the degree to which the preceding word changes the essential character of the noun, the degree to which the modifier and the noun are inseparable. If you were diagramming a sentence with a...

Standard fire team formations are the wedge (figure 071-326-0501-1), modified wedge (figure 071-326-0501-2), diamond (figure 071-326-0501-3), and file (figure 071-326-0501-4). a. Fire team wedge (figure 071-326-0501-1). This is the basic fire team formation which— (1) Is easy to control. (2) Is flexible. (3) Allows immediate fires in all directions. (4) Offers all round local security. Figure 071-326-0501-1. Fire team wedge STP 21-1-SMCT 18 June 2009 071-326-0501 3-165 Performance Steps b. Fire team modified wedge (figure 071-326-0501-2). When rough terrain, poor visibility, or other factors reduce control of the wedge formation, the sides are closed up to (almost) a single file. When moving in less rugged terrain and control becomes easier, resume your original positions. The modified wedge is also used for extended periods when traveling on roads or trails. The modified wedge— (1) Is easier to control in reduced visibility or rough terrain than are other formations. (2) Offers less flank security than a wedge but more than a file. (3) Masks fires initially to the front and rear for the majority of the team. Figure 071-326-0501-2. Fire team modified wedge c. Fire team diamond (figure 071-326-0501-3). This formation is a variation of the wedge. It...

...The Meaning of Identity: A Brief History The term identity as the dictionary defines it today is almost as new as the sciences devoted to studying it. The definition of the word identity has undergone several transformations since it was first used by European philosophers emerging from the Dark Ages. It wouldn’t be until 1950 that the word would undergo its final stage, the one seen used in psychology textbooks across the world. Erik Erikson’s eight stages of the life cycle gave us its modern meaning. The way the term identity has been used by philosophers in the past has given it definite significance and seriousness. Despite this, its use in relation to the individuality of a person was very casual and lacked depth. Only recently has the term identity come to represent an analytical psychological concept (Gleason, 1983). Before modern social sciences evolved, the term identity was associated with philosophical thought and the ever-present questions about the mind-body connection and the nature of self. The root of the word identity is Latin in origin. The word is “idem” and it means “the same.” The word identity has been found in philosophical texts going back to 1690 with John Locke’s “Essay Concerning Human Understanding” (Gleason, 1983). The term seemed to be used only to describe “self” as the philosophers viewed it. The definition of identity that we have today did not come about until much later and when it did it gave much insight into issues that...

...RUNNING HEADER: ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS Environmental Analysis Strategies for Competitive Advantage MMPBL/590 April 30, 2012 Professor Adeline Boomgaard Wilson began as a private distribution company in 1921. In April 1998, Wilson was purchased by Smith International, Inc. and has since executed major acquisitions on its own accord, purchasing Continental Emsco in 1999, Texas Mill Supply in 2000, and Van Leeuwen (USA) in 2001, as well as a number of smaller acquisitions along the way. These acquisitions have strengthened Wilson’s ability to offer products and solutions to the customer, including PVF, Mill, Tool, Safety, and Janitorial products, Integrated Supply, Inventory Management, Warehouse Management, Supplier Management (Wilson, 2012). Wilson Supply is currently working on the strategic plan for the upcoming year for the Bakken region which is located in the Northern Rockies Region of the United States. The hub of the Bakken is located in Stanley, North Dakota. In creating a strategic plan the company had decided to perform an environmental analysis. An environmental analysis is the evaluation of the possible or probable effects of external forces and conditions on an organization's survival and growth strategies (Business Dictionary, 2012). Wilson Supply understands that there are many factors that can impact the analysis. In order to limit the amount of information that the analysis will bring the company is focusing on the following elements along with sub-elements...

...Types of Word Formation Processes Compounding Compounding forms a word out of two or more root morphemes. The words are called compounds or compound words. In Linguistics, compounds can be either native or borrowed. Native English roots are typically free morphemes, so that means native compounds are made out of independent words that can occur by themselves. Examples: mailman (composed of free root mail and free root man) mail carrier dog house fireplace fireplug (a regional word for 'fire hydrant') fire hydrant dry run pick-up truck talking-to In Greek and Latin, in contrast to English, roots do not typically stand alone. So compounds are composed of bound roots. Compounds formed in English from borrowed Latin and Greek morphemes preserve this characteristic. Examples include photograph, iatrogenic, and many thousands of other classical words. Note that compounds are written in various ways in English: with a space between the elements; with a hyphen between the elements; or simply with the two roots run together with no separation. The way the word is written does not affect its status as a compound. Over time, the convention for writing compounds can change, usually in the direction from separate words (e.g. clock work), to hyphenated words (clock-work), to one word with no break (clockwork). If you read older literature you might see some compound words that are now written as one word appearing with unfamiliar spaces or hyphens between the components Another...

...HUMAN GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT MATTHEW ROBISON 10-28-2010 NOTES FOR INFORMATION ON CHAPTER TWELVE C. Adolescence - - Psychosocial Development (Chapter 12) What are some components of the adolescent’ search for identity? Erickson believes that cognitive development enables them to construct a theory of the self because as adolescents they have a “kind of maturational malice” that is vital to a process that builds on achievements of early stages. What are examples of immature thoughts? Here are several. Trust, autonomy, initiative and industry lay the groundwork for coping with challenges of adulthood; however an identity crisis is seldom fully resolved in all of these factors in the short time of adolescence, as issues concerning identity come up again and again throughout adult life. What is the psychosocial conflict of identity vs Identity confusion and the resulting virtue of fidelity? It is explained as becoming a unique individual adult with coherent sense of self and valued role in society. Identity crisis is based on Eriksson’s life experience. His struggle and confusion caused him to find any identity the leading him to the immigrant status as his identity where he saw and experienced many things that he struggled with and worse yet decided to change and have news thoughts and actions that he had to consciously considered successful in his identity to himself. An adolescent who resolves the identity crisis satisfactorily develop the virtue of fidelity...

...A Respectable Woman by Kate Chopin “A Respectable Woman” is a short story written by Kate Chopin about Mrs. Baroda who lives with her loving husband in a rich plantation in the early 20th century. The main problem arises in the story when Mrs. Baroda’s husband, Gaston, invites his friend Governail to spend a couple of weeks with them at the plantation. As for Mrs. Baroda, she doesn’t really like this idea because she had planned to spend this time taking and rest and to get in to conversations with her husband. Mrs. Baroda has never met this friend before but she pictures him as a tall, slim, skeptical man and she also didn’t really like that image of him, but when she meets the slim but not tall or cynical Governail, she later figures that she actually likes him but what she can’t figure out is that why she likes him. After much thinking, she still ends up to be puzzled about it. At the same time Mrs. Baroda is eager for this friend to leave as she asks her husband about when Governail is leaving. Finally one night Governail breaks his silence as he starts a conversation with Mrs. Baroda, who isn’t really paying attention to his words but his voice. She realizes that she desires him especially when she desires to touch his face and lips; however she controls those sentiments because she considers herself a respectable woman. The next morning she leaves the plantation to visit her mom and avoid Governail and her feelings for him. After some time, Gaston wishes to invite Governail...

...Calculus formation happens in a sequence of three steps including pellicle formation, biofilm formation, and mineralization. The first step in calculus formation is the development of a pellicle. A pellicle is an organic substance made of mucoproteins that quickly forms within minutes of being detached from the tooth surface. The next step is biofilm maturation where the biofilm forms in layers. Microorganisms grow and colonize on the growing pellicle. There are many morphologic forms of bacteria in the biofilm, but in the first few days Gram-positive cocci and rods dominate. The length of time that the biofilm is composed primarily of cocci differs depending on if the patient is a slow biofilm former or a fast biofilm former. Slow biofilm formers make biofilm with predominantly cocci in it longer than fast biofilm...

...For centuries, mankind has wondered how the moon came to exist. The Greeks, the Romans, and the Egyptians all conjured their own myths and theories as to how the it came to be. Few people continue to believe these today, though, as new, scientifically backed theories have formed. Scientists believe that the moon’s formation either followed the co-accretion model, the capture model, the fission model, or the big impact model. The co-accretion model suggests that the Earth and its moon formed simultaneously from the same debris. This theory does not support the Earth and the moon’s difference in iron contents, so most scientists do not believe this occurred. The capture model proposes that the moon formed somewhere else in the Solar System and was later pulled by gravity into orbit. This theory also possesses problems as the physics of capturing an object as large as the moon is...

... How was the Earth formed? The Earth was formed in one distinct way. It built up and changed over time to give us the Earth we live on today. Planetary differentiation, layers of the Earth, convection currents and seismic waves make up the Earth we know today. Planetary differentiation helped formed the Earth. Electromagnetic forces brought dust to stick together, as gravity brought the bigger chunks of dust together. This ball of dust eventually became so big that it collided with meteors and comets, giving us our early Earth. Later, molten metals that are less dense rose and hardened, while denser metals sank. This is how the layers of our Earth were formed. The hot molten metals that sank formed the inner and outer core. The molten metals that rose and hardened became the mantle and the crust. How is the inner core solid if the molten metals remained melted to form the outer core? High pressure from the other layers caused the inner core to solidify. The crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core all make up the layers of the Earth. The crust is relatively 5 to 100 kilometers deep. The crust is made up of silicon, aluminum, calcium, sodium, and potassium. The two types of crust are the oceanic and the continental crust. The oceanic crust is made up of minerals like basalt. The continental crust is made up of minerals like granite. The mantle is about 2750 to 2900 km deep, and it is made up of iron, magnesium and calcium. The mantle is one of the two layers that have convection...

...Identity is a way that people truly show their individual uniqueness in this world full of people who with the different point of views in life, values, religion, lifestyle, culture, sexual orientation, and skin color. Also, personal identity could be portrayed as by how a person dresses or presents him or herself outwardly. Identity is defining the question, who am I? When one look around on this world once can see that there are a lot of factors that affects our unique identity formation. Primary Challenge to forming one’s identity today could be different depending on that person’s culture, friends, workplace, family, religion, TV or radio based media, and social media can very much so determine the shape of one true identity. Identity formation starts when children are very little and the formation increases, as their age increases. When children are at the age of two to three they start forming gender identity keeping in mind many identify formation that goes on in between, adolescent years are the most critical time because this is the time where their true identity is curved out.

...Edward LeBar November 25th, 2009 HIST 017 Prof: Dan Hambly History of Warfare: Essay Assignment The two key individual advancements of weaponry in warfare that I believe were most relevant to the change in warfare tactics were the Spears used by the Ancient Greek and Macedonian Phalanx (300 B.C.E) and the Long Bow used by the British (1300-1500 AD). Each of these weapons made a huge impact in warfare upon being developed and changed the course of history of their armies who wielded these weapons of excellence. Each weapon was wielded by soldiers slaying millions of people during many glorious historical battles still taught to students around the globe today about their importance to warfare. “One of the earliest, and certainly the deadliest of these first purpose-made weapons, was the spear” (Weir, 2005). The spear was developed in early known warfare, and had an impact when the Ancient Greeks wielded the spear in their battles. The Spear was a simple weapon to make as it consisted of a wooden poll 6 to 8 feet in length with a sharp piercing arrowhead attached to the end capable of puncturing any enemy armor. The Ancient Greek’s developed the spear to be able to attack an enemy from a longer range than the sword and used the spear with tactics and coordination with a Hoplon shield protecting the Hoplite soldier which was later called a Phalanx. The spear proved to be very useful to the Greek Phalanx providing the Greek’s with many victories with this particular weapon...

...Part 1 Essay Describe the similarities and differences in the way identity is conceptualised by the psychosocial theory of identity and social identity theory. I will start this essay by explaining both theories, Psychosocial theory and Social Identity Theory mentioning what is understood by identity and answering my essay question describing their similarities and differences. Identity is a major area of study for Psychology. Over the decades many psychologists in the field tried to explain what identity was, and are still to explain how it is formed. Identity is what defines us as human beings, what we do on our day-to-day life, and our interactions within society. Psychosocial Theory Erickson viewed identity as a psychosocial process. A psychological assessment of ‘me’ and a social assessment of ‘me’. For Erikson, society where children and adolescents grow up would have an impact to their identity, therefore his theory was from point of view that identity was a psychosocial process. Erickson argued that we created our identity from a balanced, constant and reliable sense of who we are and what we are to our society, our group community (as cited in Phoenix, 2007, p.53). He developed the sense core identity where an individual would base all his identity building up from our past towards the future. Erikson believed an individual would take their identity for granted if life was good but to the minimal problem this identity...
