For Ellie Boon, high school soccer presents contrasting opportunities.
Ellie Boon
Season highlights
Scored 14 goals and had four assists despite missing several games with injuries.
Class 2A Greater St. Helens League's offensive player of the year.
Scored the winning goal from 35 yards out when the Panthers beat league champion Hockinson.
Was honored by the Portland Timbers as the Oregon Youth Soccer ODP girls player of the year.
More about Ellie
Including club, high school, ODP and national team events, she has played in about 75 matches in 2011, down from 89 in 2010.
Plays club soccer with Vancouver United Timbers.
Favorite books: "Like all girls, I'm a big fan of the Twilight series. I'm not as big as I was before. I'm starting to tone it down a bit, which I'm proud of. My second favorite is The Hunger Games."
Next year and beyond
After one more year of high school, Boon plans to play college soccer for the University of Portland. She also hopes to someday land a spot on the U.S. Women's National Team.
In many ways, playing for Washougal High School is a nice break from the intensity of the club season with her Vancouver United Timbers team, and the demands of Olympic Development Program tournaments and national team camps.
In other ways, the high school soccer season is a test of Boon's patience. Washougal is not one of the stronger teams in the area — the Panthers lost in the Class 2A district playoffs this season — and opponents shadow Boon with two or three defenders, making it difficult for her to get anywhere near the goal.
Despite those challenges, the junior scored 14 goals and assisted on four others.
Those contributions on the field, and embracing high school soccer when her talent and passion is taking her to much higher places, made Boon The Columbian's selection for Girls Soccer Player of the Year.
Considered one of the top players her age in the country, Boon has already committed to play college soccer for the University of Portland starting in the fall of 2013. Her dreams of playing for the national team are very real.
So then why play high school soccer?
"It's fun to be able to relax and enjoy playing soccer, instead of looking forward to coaches (scouting) you. It's just a time to relax and have some fun," Boon said. "Even though I do find myself frustrated, it's a lot of fun. I love the girls on our team. I love the family that I have through the soccer at the high school."
Her highlight this season was a goal from 35 yards away at Hockinson that gave Washougal a win over the league-champion Hawks. Boon said she was especially happy for friend Maddie Down, a senior who made the pass to set up that game winner.
Boon said the way she is defended in high school forced her to improve her ability to shoot from distance. She also uses the high school season to expand her skills and to work on aspects of the game that club and national coaches tell her need improvement.
"I think this high school season I became a lot more ambitious on the ball," she said. "I was able to do more moves and juggle on the field when I wanted and do things that I wouldn't really try with the national team."
One thing those national-level coaches tell Boon to work on would surprise many observers: confidence.
"(Confidence) is still one of my issues today," Boon said.
But she knows a great way to give her confidence a lift.
"There is nothing like putting the ball in the back of the net that say,' 'Ellie, you can do this.' "
Rest of All-Region team
Aurora Bodenhamer, jr., Hockinson: Midfielder helped Hawks to a 2A league title.
Hannah Johnson, sr., Skyview: Goalkeeper posted 11 shutouts to help Storm win 4A GSHL.
Caity Kuntz, sr., Hockinson: Class 2A GSHL co-Defensive Player of the Year.
Olivia Lovell, sr., Camas: Midfielder was a leader for 3A league champion Papermakers.
Carlee Maluenda, jr., Union: Midfielder earned first-team all GSHL and helped Titans to playoffs.
Nicole Mattson, jr., Evergreen: Forward was first-team all league in 4A GSHL.
Becca Sikora, sr., Skyview: 4A GSHL offensive player of year led Storm to another league title.
Sheaffer Skadsen, sr., Skyview: Forward was 4A GSHL first-teamer for third time.
Alexis Vizcaino, sr., Prairie: All-leaguer helped Falcons finish as 3A GSHL runners-up.
Jordyn Voyles, fr., Ridgefled: 2A GSHL offensive MVP helped Spuds reach state quarterfinals.
Alexa Whitney, jr., Hudson's Bay: Class 3A GSHL offensiver player of the year.

From the Journal of Dr. Wallace Fitzhughes
7 April, 1870
Dearest Honoria,
Time has not assuaged my hunger for your lips, nor dulled their crimson blush in my mind's eye. Would that I could join your sweet repose, but the beating heart within my chest denies me. The very blood that gives it life is my sworn enemy! Until the gods assign my appointed hour, each day I shall pen missives to you, imagining your journey were of a temporal duration; thus can I share with you the inconsequential madness of my daily life, whilst fantasizing your safe and swift return.
Mark me, Love. Monotonous though the day had been, this evening passed like none before.
A most extraordinary colleague sought my services – a man of some means, arriving by private coach. Through the window, by lamp light, I discerned a pall that only grief can paint. His name was Winston Twitchell, an apothecary by trade; his desire, to converse with the dead, inside my psychomantium.
"A preternatural portal," he called it.
"An unrealized dream," replied I.
Mourning the loss of his daughter, Elsbeth, to consumption, he craved one last glimpse of her visage and, perchance, one last embrace. I agreed to show him my creation, the psychomantium, on the condition that he accept a cruel but absolute truth.
"The chamber is devoid of all but the faintest candlelight. Its walls, ceilings, and floors are draped in black. A mirror hangs mid-wall with a single offset chair. All is as it should be. Many hours have I passed therein, seeking my beloved wife Honoria – to no avail. It pains me to say, despite my most persistent efforts, it does not function."
Twitchell paused. "Dr Fitzhughes, grief has robbed me of many things, the least of which is pride. There is no peace for me, no sleep, no care for the future. There is only an ache that swallows me whole. Have mercy, Sir. Is it so much I ask? If I fail in the attempt, what cost to you?"
What indeed. I opened the chamber door, escorted him through the blackened void, and tucked him into the oversized chair like a mother bird nesting its young. His eyes wide, in terror or anticipation, I knew not which.
Profoundly moved, I grasped his hand. "Find her," I whispered, then sealed him inside the black abyss and took my place in the darkened antechamber, watching through a hidden observation hole.
Imagine my dismay when I saw him remove a small metal flask secreted within his jacket! I thought perhaps his nerves were frayed and he required a strong libation, but when he removed the cap steam bubbled o'er the top and down the sides of the flask. He took a goodly swallow of the unknown potion before replacing the cap, shaking the remains vigorously before lowering the flask to the floor. Questions consumed me. What advantage would this tonic bring? How was it made? Be still my racing mind, would it work?
He relaxed, staring into the mirror, eyes heavy but unyielding to the shapes and shadows crafted by the candlelight. His breaths grew shallow and less frequent until his chest refused to rise, yet steam wafted from this mouth as happens in winter's chill. Ice crystals etched the mirror's surface; indeed, the outer wall grew frigid – then a blissful glow transformed his face.
"Elsbeth!" Twitchell cried.
He rose from the chair, arms outstretched, embracing the unseen. "I shall never let you go, Child." A lone tear, slipping down his cheek turned to ice. His joints popped and cracked like water contracting as it freezes. Before my unsuspecting eyes, his entire body froze en masse. Too astonished to look away, I saw his solidified body topple to the floor and sever at the articulations as if cleft!
I retched. Oh, Merciful God, what had we done? Worse still – what lay ahead?
Despite the gruesome scene, I collected myself and devised a ruse for the returning coachman. I rebuffed him with a fabrication – Twitchell elected to walk home on this warm spring night.
Following deliberate calculation, I disposed of Twitchell's remains, lest they be discovered and accusations fly.
Sweet Honoria, I fear the grip of madness, for the line between reality and fantasy is no more. The night is deep and I am spent. My eyes are weighted with all they have seen, my heart sickened by the unspeakable thing I have done. Pray, my love, that rest and the rising sun restore perspective.
Your Devoted Spouse,
8 April, 1870
My Darling,
I awoke to a visit from the town constable, prompt in his investigation of Twitchell's disappearance. I held true to my deception and offered nothing further. He tarried unnecessarily, observing me with keen eye.
Despite my misdirection, suspicion will soon fall on me like a swift sword. I can offer no explanation for the manner of his death, nor would my accounting of the evening's spectral events find favor.
May Twitchell's remains mire deeply in their fertile graves, lest my life forfeit.
How I envy Twitchell's destiny – that I could hold you without end! Fear not, my sweet, I shall find you. It is only a matter of when.
9 April, 1870
My Beloved,
Comes an angry knock upon my door. The constable returns, sidearm drawn, accompanied by his men. Might some hungry hound have unearthed a grisly treat? Mayhap Twitchell's limbs scratched and clawed their way up through my garden soil to decry their contemptuous interment.
It matters not. I know my path of choice.
I'll not await the hangman's noose. The last of Twitchell's tonic passes my gullet even as I write. I return now to the chamber, that bleak and glacial tomb, to feel the frigid rush of death sweeping through my veins – to see you, my love, through the mirror's icy haze, and to share your embrace forever more.
Eternally Yours,

East Side Misadventures
An essay collection of boyhood memories from Depression- and WWII-era Madison
(page 2 of 3)
No. 2
Orton Park
Richie's brother Billie came home from World War II with an injury received while serving in the navy. Billie was not specific about his wound but word in the neighborhood was that he was a flickering porch light. I didn't think that was true because he seemed normal to me and he told us stories. Not about the war but spooky stories about ghosts and vampires.
Early one evening he sat on the front steps of our house on Williamson Street and told us about the "Ghost Park." As he told the story I thought the "Ghost Park" was far away or in another country or at least in another state or city, but Billie said it was only a few blocks from here.
He said that during the Civil War many Southern rebel soldiers were kept at Orton Park and that many had died and were buried there in unmarked graves. Their spirits longed to return to their homeland in the sunny South. Each month, Billie explained, the ghosts of the soldiers rose up from their graves to look around to see if the wagons had come to take them home. They did this so they could see the wagons by the light of the full moon. Some crawled all the way out and walked around while others only came up as far as their waists. Not seeing the wagons they moaned, cried and slipped back to their graves. Billie said you could hear their moans and cries if you walked by Orton Park at midnight during a full moon.
That was all Richie and I had to hear. We didn't believe in ghosts but we didn't NOT believe in ghosts! We had to see for ourselves. I have to admit that without Richie I would never have had the nerve to follow up on our plan.
"When's the next full moon?" Richie asked.
"I don't know," I said. "Let's ask Mr. Gerhardt."
Mr. Gerhardt was the pharmacist on the corner and when I had scientific questions I went to him. I once tried to count my teeth but kept losing track. My older sisters counted them but they each came up with a different number. I went to Mr. Gerhardt and he said "twenty-six" without even counting them!
We walked to the corner and entered the drugstore. I sighed when my hot bare feet met the cool terrazzo floor. We soon found Mr. Gerhardt working on a prescription in the back.
"Mr. Gerhardt," I said, "can you tell me when the next full moon is?"
"Tomorrow night," he answered without looking up.
"Thank you," I replied and turned to leave. He said, "Thank you what?" and I said, "Thank you, sir."
I arranged for my sister to wake me when she came home from her job as an usherette at the Majestic Theatre. She got home at eleven and gave me a nudge. I popped out of bed, telling her Richie and I were going to look at the full moon. Richie had slept in the backseat of his father's car, which was up on blocks due to the wartime tire shortage. I knocked on the window and we were soon off to Orton Park.
We covered the five or six blocks quickly and were at the east end of the park before 11:30, according to Richie's Ingraham pocket watch.
South off Spaight Street on Few Street took us to Rutledge. Orton Park was a rectangle framed by Few Street on the east, Rutledge on the south, Ingersoll on the west and Spaight on the north. There was a streetlight on each corner and with the moonlight Orton Park was fairly well lit. This changed when we reached the middle of the park where the land sloped down to the north. The large trees shaded the moonlight and their trunks cast shadows from the streetlights.
"What was that?!" Richie said. The hair on the back of my neck stood out and I held my breath, listening.
"What was what?" I finally said.
"It sounded like leaves rustling," Richie said.
"Maybe a squirrel or something," I told him.
"Squirrels don't come out at night," he said.
We walked further up Rutledge with our eyes on the park. Richie stopped in his tracks. "I saw something near the bandstand. I think it was one of them," he said. I didn't look ... I didn't dare. I turned away from the park and faced Richie. He was standing sort of awkwardly with a sick look on his face.
"Let's run!" he said.
I was the second-fastest runner in the neighborhood and Richie was the fastest. We bolted! We jumped down the slope from the sidewalk to Rutledge Street and ran. That night Richie and I were side-by-side, neck-and-neck and stride-for-stride. There was no fastest and second-fastest.
We pulled up at the Baldwin Street streetlight, caught our breath, and looked at each other. A far cry from the two brave boys who started out that night.
The bells from St. Bernard Church pealed the hour softly in the distance.
Richie said, "Don't tell anyone I wet my pants." I said that I wouldn't and for that matter I wasn't going to tell anyone about anything that happened.
I never go by Orton Park at night. Even if I'm driving a car I go on Jenifer or Williamson. I'll never know what Richie saw that night—maybe it was a hobo smoking a pipe or maybe it was one of those rebel soldiers looking for a wagon to take him home.

Welcome to the firm Herb!
I am very proud and excited to join the ff Venture Capital team as Senior Counsel. I have spent the last eight years practicing corporate law with a focus on advising entrepreneurial clients and early-stage investors on a full range of general corporate, transactional and securities law matters.
All ffVC wants for the Holidays is...
We are officially in ice skating and candy cane mode, and here at the ffVC office, our team has been talking about what they want for the holidays, what they are thankful for, and all of the winter activities they are looking forward to participating in:
Celebrate the Holidays with the ffVC Countdown Calendar
New York City is blanketed with snow, and boy, is it cold outside. And since most of us just want to be inside, ffVC and our portfolio companies want to spread some additional warmth and holiday cheer!
How to Raise Entrepreneurial Kids
I spoke at Womensphere a few weeks ago, a conference centered around empowering women and girls. I discussed my family's approach to raising entrepreneurial kids, and some parallels to ffVC's approach to supporting our portfolio entrepreneurs.
What would you do?
This week, one of our employees shared a story with us to which we thought everyone could relate. Here is his tale:
Autumn: As the leaves are falling...
As a Southerner, the Fall and Winter seasons in New York City are a little difficult for me to get through each year. Now that November is officially here, and we'll be seeing much less of the sun, I want to share some of the things that get me through those chilly afternoons and evenings.
How to Judge a Startup Idea
I periodically serve as a judge at pitch events for companies raising funding. I assess each company against ffVC's standard criteria for investing.
Just the Basics: Social Media
I have been spearheading the ff Venture Capital social media channels for a couple of years, and have learned many Do's and Don'ts that I want to share...
Take Your Sites and Apps Global
Everyone wants more users, yeah? So why do we limit ourselves to English speakers? Presumably because expanding to non-English markets is difficult, time-consuming,and therefore expensive. While that is very true when you consider a full-scale solution involving language, culture, writing conventions and regulatory compliance, we can start small in true Lean fashion.
Pioneering a New Frontier for Venture Capital
It is a new era, and venture capital is at a crossroads. The old way of doing business is being challenged, and no more so than on the investing and fundraising sides. Over the next five years, the entire industry will be transformed, and everyone in the ecosystem will be affected. Some will lead, some will follow and some will fall by the wayside.
Recap: ffVC's 5th Anniversary Party
Last night, ff Venture Capital celebrated our 5th Anniversary.
Apple picking and pumpkins galore: What ffVC is excited for this Fall
The weather has started to get cooler, the leaves are beginning to change colors, and Pumpkin Spice Lattes are back at Starbucks. It can only mean one thing....autumn is upon us.
Here at ffVC, our team is excited for the Fall season for a number of reasons:
Miami: A hot spot for venture capitalists
A few weeks ago, I had my first-ever opportunity to visit the Miami startup ecosystem. I was visiting as part of Terrapinn Private Equity World, a leading private equity conference for the Latin American technology community. You might assume the event took place in Sao Paolo or Mexico City, but no, it was in Miami, and will be again in 2014.
The Lower-Risk Startup: How Venture Capitalists Increase the Odds of Startup Success.
One of my responsibilities at ff Venture Capital is helping to accelerate value creation in our portfolio companies. I published the first research study on this topic in the Journal of Private Equity, peHub, Betabeat, and Techcrunch...
Recruiting Hacks: Best Practices in Building an A-Player Team
I finally got around to posting the video from a Founder Institute class I taught earlier this year on Best Practices in Recruiting High Performers . Although I focused on recruiting technical talent, my points are applicable to recruiting in general. Feedback always welcome! I've also attached below the extended slide deck.
How to Hire a New Employee and Make Sure You Don't End Up Firing Them
You just hired a new employee for $100K; congratulations!
Recruiting is expensive. You probably spent 30-50% of her compensation recruiting her (her recruiting cost ratio), and if she leaves early you'll lose another 30-50% of her compensation recruiting her replacement. So how do you increase the odds that she says with you?
Last week, I wrote about how you can start a new job and not get fired. My concern here is the other ...
How To Add Powerful (and Legal) Images To Your Presentations
What do you remember better? Pictures or words?
The evidence is clear: people have better recall for images than text. Including attractive images that dramatize your speaking points will significantly increase your efficacy as a speaker.
Engaged Twitter Users can boost TV Ratings
And while we're clearly able to see the rise of Social TV with the infiltration of social into the broadcast experience through hashtags, socially curated experiences and onscreen visualizations, there has never been a real statistical correlation between Ratings and Tweets...
My ffVC Internship Experience: College, Entrepreneurship, and the Value of Ideas
I love the charisma that I witness in entrepreneurs involved in building a company from nothing, and the sense of urgency fostered by the knowledge that each person's activity makes a difference in the future of that company. Entrepreneurship has come to represent ideas coming into fruition through smart strategy and clever branding. After working at ffVC, I have been invited into the world of people who don't settle. And for this, I ...
How to Think Like a Hacker, Even if You Can't Code
What do Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, and Larry Page all have in common?
Yes, they've founded multi-billion dollar businesses with virtually no formal business training, with combined revenues of over $80 billion. But they are also former software engineers and hackers, an experience that undoubtedly taught them skills in critical thinking and problem solving.
Congratulations, Infochimps!
We would like to congratulate our portfolio company Infochimps for being acquired by the Computer Science Corporation (CSC).
Infochimps is an Austin-based company that indexes and connects big data publicly available on the web, and makes it searchable through a variety of formats. Using an innovative cloud service, Infochimps accommodates Big Data environments to rapidly deliver analytics and intelligence. In a blog post written by CEO Jim Kaskade, he states that "The Infochimps' Big Data ...
My ffVC Internship Experience: Seamus
While interning at ff Venture Capital this summer, I had the opportunity to see the inner workings of a seed stage venture capital firm. And I think the overall experience can be summed up in one word: busy. Officially I was a legal intern, so I was responsible for reviewing the multitude of documents that accompany every round of funding.
Eat your own dog food
Why founders need to eat their own dog food and be on the front lines of nearly everything.
Big corporations are failing. They are failing slowly, but it's easy to see how smaller, 'scrappy' startups are eating their lunch. It's easier to be small. It's easy to see the mistakes of the Big C, and easy enough to create and sell the product that is closer to the customer.
Welcome to ffVC, AJ!
We are thrilled to welcome Adam Plotkin as ffVC Entrepreneur-in-Residence. Adam (also known as AJ), a life-long technology early adopter and enthusiast, has spent the past three years working with startup companies as an advisor, consultant, and investor.

ffVC on CNBC, in Businessweek and in USA Today
It was a big day for the venture capital and startup worlds on Wednesday, when the SEC officially voted to lift the ban on general solicitation. While much of the attention regarding this change in policy was devoted to the impact on hedge funds, ffVC partner John Frankel raised awareness of the game-changing consequences for venture capital funds and startups.

The Search for the Best RSS Reader
Google terminated Google Reader on July 1st, leaving many former users looking for a worthy replacement.

Luckily, many alternatives have stepped up in the aftermath of Google's announcement.

Thoughts On The Future of iPhone Camera
On the heels of WWDC, my thoughts keep coming back to the heated debate with my friends about the future of photography.
Let me step back for a second. Marissa Mayer declared a few weeks ago that there's no such thing as professional photography anymore. The internet rage followed, she apologized, saying that what she meant is that we all take photos now. And it's true. Nothing has revolutionized photography to make it ...

Is Mobile the Trojan Horse of Social-Email Integration?

Preparing a Pitch to POTUS
Every entrepreneur experiences highs and lows as we work to launch and grow our companies. Last week was one of the highest highs.
President Obama kick-started a series of quick "job and opportunity" tours showcasing what works in places like Austin, Texas.

Splice data scientist DNA into your existing team
I recently spoke with renowned data scientist DJ Patil, who pointed out that a "data scientist" is "one part hacker, one part analyst, and a whole lot of curiosity." To turn a business analyst into a data scientist, the trick is to connect with their natural curiosity to motivate them to hone hacking skills:
Tip 1:Ask if they want to learn how to hack. If not, then pair them with a hacker.

Startups and Domain Names: Three Factors to Consider
A good domain name can catch attention, biasing people to prefer your company over competitors, and making it easy to reach the website if and when they decide to use it. A bad domain name can sink you. Like a storefront and location in the offline world, your domain name is the very first vehicle by which potential investors/customers/employees evaluate your company before they even engage.
4 Unconventional Recruiting Tools That Every Startup Can Use
There's a war for young talent raging among America's startups right now. All the best companies have booths at college job fairs, and help-wanted postings are sprouting like daisies on career websites. What this means is easy: if a startup wants to attract "A-list" candidates, it's going to need the best recruiting tools around. The problem, of course, is that every other small business in America is using them too.
Playdek Is Serious About Play
Founding a new video game publisher is a daunting task.

Don't Look Now, Your Costs are Showing: Cost of Goods Sold in SaaS Companies
Accounting. Accruals. GAAP. These words are probably not the first things that pop up in the mind of a startup founder as he or she assembles a team, develops a product, acquires customers and runs a business. As CPAs, though, we believe that these and other related issues a should be treated as critically as any other business decision.

The beauty of deep linking is that it eliminates extra clicks, brings content closer to consumers, and enables people to more easily take the actions they intend on taking.

How a Hypothetical Founder just saved $3 million in Federal Taxes
I have written before about the tax benefit to investors from investing in a Qualified Small Business. The fact sometimes gets lost, but a company founder is also eligible for the tax benefit of excluding a portion of his QSB gain when he sells his interest. (State and local tax rates vary.) Because the law places limits on the tax benefit, careful planning by a founder is required.

Convertibles: great cars, bad vehicles
Convertible notes (converts, convertibles) are a popular, but poor vehicle for the first investment round for a company. Many disagree.

A year after Manchester police shooting, a life-saving tourniquet is standard issue in cruisers
Manchester police officer Dan Doherty walks through a gauntlet of officers Jan. 14 after a judge sentenced Myles Webster to 60 years in jail for attempted murder. Doherty is back at work. (DAVID LANE/UNION LEADER)
But without the tourniquet a fellow officer applied to Doherty's leg at the scene of the shooting, Doherty may well have bled to death. As a result, all Manchester police officers have been trained to apply a tourniquet and render other emergency aid. The response didn't stop there.
"We took it one step further," said Sgt. Mark Sanclemente, department training officer.
Thanks to a grant, the department now has a first aid/trauma kit in every cruiser.
The man who tried to kill Doherty, 26, now sits in the New Hampshire State Prison, serving a sentence of 60 years to life on his convictions for attempted murder, reckless conduct and robbery. Webster, 23, who was only six months out of a federal prison at the time of the shooting, has appealed his convictions to the New Hampshire Supreme Court.
At Webster's trial in December, a doctor testified in Hillsborough County Superior Court North that the tourniquet put on Doherty's left leg was a key element in his survival.
Police Chief David Mara was so impressed that he ordered every Manchester police officer to be trained to properly place a tourniquet and perform other medical assistance.
First on the scene
Sanclemente said officers Brandon Murphy and Tom Gonzales were the first backup officers to arrive at the shooting scene last March 21. The two had issued the alert about a man who appeared to have a weapon tucked in his pants in the area of RiteAid at McGregor Square.
"They were the first with Dan," said Sanclemente.
Murphy, who along with Gonzales is a member of SWAT, had undergone medical training two months before. He immediately assessed the situation and put a tourniquet on Doherty's left leg.
After many surgeries, intensive therapy and with a titanium rod in his left leg, Doherty was able to return to work the first week of February, surprising many fellow officers when he appeared without notice at roll call.
Doctors credited Doherty's survival to his youth, physical condition, the EMTs who sped him from the shooting scene at Wayne and Rimmon streets to nearby Catholic Medical Center, the doctors who operated - and the tourniquet.
There are two medics assigned to SWAT, which is not a full-time job, but now everyone is trained on first aid, including tourniquet application, Sanclemente said.
"To apply to yourself or a teammate," he said.
A dangerous job
Mara said the shooting didn't prompt changes in training because Doherty did everything right, including calling for backup when he spotted Webster, who fled when initially confronted and turned and fired as Doherty closed in on him.
Manchester uses one-person cruisers. If two officers are needed for an incident at a specific address, it's easy to coordinate the arrival, said Mara.
But often it is a search without a definite address.
"If we do find them," he said, the officer calls for backup. "You have to think quick," he said.
"Dan's actions and the actions of other police officers that night show the importance of training." Mara added: "We will continue to train."
Sanclemente said: "We try to prepare for anything."
That's why the department participated in an "active shooter exercise" at Parkside Middle School Feb. 18, when children were on holiday for Washington's Birthday. Police worked with the fire department and paramedics in the mass shooting exercise.
The Manchester Police Department has scheduled an entry level police officer examination May 18 at Memorial High School, with an application deadline of May 8.
Asked if the Doherty shooting is likely to have an effect on applications, Sanclemente, stressing that he was speaking only for himself, said he does not believe it will.
"It's just a dangerous job that we do," he said. "People know what it entails."

Question by Assiya: How to win a male leos heart?
I'm a Gemini female btw.
And don't tell me the horoscopes fake I don't wanna hear it. Only people who truley know.
Best answer:
Answer by Jcorvette 72
Astrology consists of a number of belief systems which hold that there is a relationship between astronomical phenomena and events in the human world. In the West, astrology most often consists of a system of horoscopes that claim to explain aspects of a person's personality and predict future events in their life based on the positions of the sun, moon, and other planetary objects at the time of their birth. Many cultures have attached importance to astronomical events, and the Indians, Chinese, and Mayans developed elaborate systems for predicting terrestrial events from celestial observations.

Tony Hawk Rides the Rails
It was time to rethink the Tony Hawk series. The last two games, according to GameRankings, were no longer scoring in the high 80s. In fact, American Wasteland (which I liked because of its intense story) and Proving Ground (which seemed like the same old, same old) scored 75 percent and 73 percent, respectively.
Activision not only went back to the drawing board for Tony Hawk: Ride, Hawk and Activision also decided to add a cool-looking wireless peripheral to make the experience richer and more real. Hawk demonstrated the add-on and sat down for a one-on-one chat with Crispy Gamer at E3 2009.
Crispy Gamer: What's your first memory of skateboarding?
Tony Hawk: My first memory of skating, well, was not really skating on a skateboard. It was in my driveway. My brother had an old board, and I asked if I could try it. I just went down the driveway. I was yelling at him, "How do I steer this thing?!"
Crispy Gamer: Did you fall off?
Hawk: No. I went straight, all the way to the end of the driveway. Then, I physically picked it up, turned it around, and went back the other way.
Crispy Gamer: There was no fear.
Hawk: I immediately liked it.
Crispy Gamer: What would you say your biggest accomplishment in the sport has been?
Hawk: I think, in the big picture, it's making a career out of it. It just really wasn't an option or a dream, when I was a kid, that anyone could do this for a living. Specifically, I think a lot of people associate me with landing the first 900 (revolving in the air two and a half times) in the X Games in 1999. That was a huge bonus for me, for sure. I had tried it on and off for 10 years. That put a really high note to the end of my competitive career. Ever since then, I've just been skating all the time at exhibitions and making videogames.
Crispy Gamer: Was it difficult to bring this sport to the masses? Were there obstacles along the way?
Hawk: It wasn't really my goal. But I always realized that there was more to the sport than people were seeing. People were more focused on hairdos and outfits and not the whole act of skating. I think that through not quitting, and skating through really adverse times, and still eking out a living while doing it, taught me a lot about what I wanted to do with my life and how much I really enjoyed skateboarding. I got a few opportunities along the way and really put my heart and soul into them, like videogames. I feel we really represented skating well. The fact that the videogame was good helped to really explode the industry as a whole.
Crispy Gamer: When you say "adverse," you mean what?
Hawk: Financially and just dealing with a lot of naysayers. People didn't think skating was cool. People didn't think you should be doing it past the age of 18. I just pressed on because I felt like doing it so much. I just couldn't quit. Even if I had to find another job, I was still going to skate.
Crispy Gamer: They really said you were too old?
Hawk: Too old. And that skating was out of date and that there's no future in it.
Crispy Gamer: Looking at it now, it appears it's never going to go out of date.
Hawk: But back then it did. It went out of fashion a few times. But I feel like now there's so much interest and so much excitement. Parents themselves are encouraging their kids to go into skating. It's been a whole shift of perception.
Crispy Gamer: What about your kids?
Hawk: My oldest son is an avid skater. He skates all the time. He's 16. My 10-year-old skates leisurely. My eight-year-old -- sometimes, but not too often. He loves LEGO. [Shrugs] What can I say?
Crispy Gamer: You're a hero to a lot of kids and adults. Who's your hero?
Hawk: I'd have to say Lance Armstrong. He went through a lot with the cancer. And he came out swinging better than ever.
Crispy Gamer: When you first wanted to do a game, how did you go about it?
Hawk: When I first came up with an idea for a skateboard game, I kind of pitched it around to a few different people, including Midway and Nintendo and a couple of others. There was just no interest. You know, people, if nothing else, just wanted to tell me how it was a bad idea.
Activision heard that I was going around with a game idea, and they called me, saying they were actually working on a game themselves. They said they would love to have my expertise, and have me help direct it and lend my name to it. I saw a sample of what they were doing. It looked so good that I thought, "That's it. This is what I want to do." They really understood it.
Crispy Gamer: You care a lot about the game music, too. In particular, you're a big punk fan and had Rancid play at your wedding in Fiji.
Hawk: They're my wife's favorite band. I was surprised they agreed, but it was great that they did. Yeah, music is a big part of the game. The bar gets raised with every game. I'm very involved in choosing what goes in.
Crispy Gamer: As far as the games go, is there one most memorable Tony Hawk game moment you can point to?
Hawk: I think in terms more of levels and features that we added to them. One of my favorite all-time levels was Downhill Jam in Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2. A lot of [Tony Hawk Ride], especially the L.A. River level, is emulating that because I always thought that was such a great layout. The whole thing about the Downhill Jam level is that it's point A to point B. Not all of our games had levels like that; in fact, very few had. It presented a lot of challenges, a lot of big jumps and a lot of good combo options. We actually ended up naming a game Downhill Jam later on. It worked so well, we couldn't let it go.
Crispy Gamer: Were there any Tony Hawk games that didn't work as well for you?
Hawk: I don't know. I feel like we were on a path with our games and the approach to it and the control schemes -- we couldn't just change it completely for a sequel. It just wouldn't work, because people had gotten used to the control schemes and expected a certain game. I don't think it was that we needed to make it better. I think people just wanted a new control scheme in a different format. The whole button/combo thing -- you can only go so far with it. At some point, it becomes more Mortal Kombat than skating.
Crispy Gamer: Because you start mashing.
Hawk: Mashing buttons, yeah. And that's when I realized that to give a true, virtual skating experience, we gotta go to a skateboard controller.
Crispy Gamer: Did it bother you that Microsoft displayed another skateboarding game in addition to yours at its E3 press conference?
Hawk: Yeah, I saw that. I wondered, what's going on? It's cool, though. Because I feel you have to have a controller under your feet like we do to have the complete experience.
Crispy Gamer: How long has that controller been in development?
Hawk: Two years. There are various versions of the skateboard lying around, kind of like a graveyard of them.
[Hawk begins a demonstration of the peripheral, which is about 10 feet in front of a huge, big-screen television. Elegantly, he moves left and right, forward and back, making moves that, even with a peripheral, would be hard for me. But he makes it all seem effortless. On-screen, he's riding rails, doing ollies, all sorts of wild things.]
Crispy Gamer: You need a big living room for that.
Hawk: The thing is, it's a lot safer than real skateboarding. So it's a great way for kids to give skating a try to see if they like it -- without the threat of being injured.

Article Title
This paper examines the nature and role of timed action in the English medieval theatre. Analysis of the phenomenon is conducted through the explicit stage direction and conditioned by the needs of the performer. Notions of 'instantaneousness', 'simultaneity', readiness', and requirements 'to wait' as contained in explicit stage directions are investigated. The relationship between timed action and staging conventions is discussed through requirements for 'stillness', 'silence', 'waiting' and 'walking about the place'. Additionally, the relationship between 'acting' and 'not acting' as witnessed by an audience is also discussed.
Author Biography
Philip Butterworth is Reader in Medieval Theatre and Dean of Research in the newly created Faculty of Music, Visual and Performing Arts at the University of Leeds. He has published articles on stage directions, staging conventions, and pyrotechnics. His book Theatre of Fire was published in 1998 for The Society for Theatre Research, London. He is currently working on two books: Theatre of Magic and Staging English Medieval Theatre.

The Landings Resident
Paid extra for a garage, but there is a strip of parking directly behind the garage area where cars are always Read More parked, therefore, I cannot reverse out without hitting a parked car.
Live in a ground level apartment, and can hear every word my neighbors say upstairs, every toilet flush, the garbage disposal, and every footstep going from room to room.

The Landings Resident
Older apartments. Management is really picky when there is time to return a deposit. Items that is by any thir Read Mored party would be considered to be normal amartization charged as damage againts one's security deposit and those charges are rather considerable. For example: square of vinyl that was installed by the entrance turned yellow. No damage was done to it whatsoever, it just turned yellowish (natural discoloration associated with aging). We were charged over $250 against our security deposit.

GLEE Mocks Christianity at Christmas
Most families enjoy watching Christmas programs and movies this time of year. Unfortunately not all Christmas features are wholesome entertainment. Glee's previously "Never Aired Christmas" episode should have stayed just that and remained unaired, considering it was complete with a bisexual Santa, transgender Virgin Mary and its fair share of drunkenness.
Other religions do not tolerate this behavior and as Christians we will not either. Why any producer or network feels mocking a sacred and religious holiday where Christians celebrate the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ is acceptable is beyond me. GLEE should not and will not get a free pass to make a joke of Christmas.
This is not the first time the show has aired blasphemous content in their program. Glee producer Ryan Murphy is used to pushing the moral boundaries on his show, but last week's episode went too far. The mockery of the Christmas story was blasphemous and an abomination.
The show featured the transgender student, Unique, portraying the Virgin Mary in their high school's nativity scene and acts out giving birth to the baby Jesus. The doll representing Jesus wore a sequin diaper and was thrown from singer to singer while they sang "Love Child, Never Meant to be." Baby Jesus is tossed around like a rag doll and shown no respect.
In another scene, a bisexual "Sexy Santa," gets two female characters and the show's gay male character drunk before robbing them blind - all this after making out with and tying the male character up in bed. These same females in a previous scene are elves at the local mall and tell kids to ask for mobile devices they could download porn on while wearing skimpy elf costumes.
Glee is not a late-night program and is rated TV-14 DLSV. While it currently airs Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET/ 8 p.m. CT on FOX, in February it will be moving to Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET/ 7 p.m. CT - well before many children's bedtimes.
Please send an email to this show's sponsors and let them know that we will not stand for Christianity to be mocked. Urge advertisers to place the program GLEE on their "do not advertise" list immediately. Last week's national sponsors were: Kay Jewelers, Nokia, Kleenex Brand (Kimberly-Clark Corporation), Victoria's Secret, Old Navy, Maybelline (L'Oreal), Hershey's and Macy's.

Architect Moritz Lau-Engehausen never intended to operate a hotel. But after designing and building CERÊS, on one of Germany's most beautiful seaside resorts, he stuck around to breathe life into his unique vision.
From the seaside rooms at CERÊS, the views over the Baltic Sea reach far into the distance, to a horizon drawing a fuzzy line between endless sky and eternal sea. The sight lines and proportions of the hotel—a 50-room property located on Germany's most visited and most storied island of Rügen—are just as liberating. CERÊS's ...
"I want to liberate people from the superfluous. I want people to have time for themselves and their thoughts."
... proprietor is, after all, not from the tourism industry at all, but an architect. An architect who didn't necessarily plan on becoming a hotelier. Moritz Lau-Engehausen created a property that dramatically breaks with the white wedding-cake visual tradition of Binz, the centuries-old seaside resort town on Rügen. It also breaks with Rügen's mostly traditional hospitality. At CERÊS—named for a mysterious dwarf planet in our solar system—it's about really arriving, in the deepest sense of the word, in a perhaps slightly unfamiliar yet soothing place. The pristine forests, untouched 550km coastline and towering white chalk cliffs find the perfect counterpoint within the walls of CERÊS. "I want to liberate people from the superfluous. I want people to have time for themselves and their thoughts," says Lau-Engehausen, explaining his sophisticated design elements. During the seven-year planning and construction process, Lau-Engehausen—who claims he's a disciple of Karl Friedrich Schinkel, Germany's celebrated classicist architect—realized that in order to fully develop the hotel's spirit, he would need to not only be the builder of the vision, but its executor as well. "I've always done things from the guest's viewpoint," he says. "There has to be a core authenticity, which means that someone stands behind what the hotel is." The five years since the hotel opened have been a period of refining the original architectural and spatial vision with a physical and, you could say, spiritual reality. The next five might just see CERÊS expanding into its own unique small brand—a mountain project is in its very earliest conceptual phases.
