Taylor Williams ( Suffield Academy) played against Rakim Sanders (St. Andrew's), who many consider the number one shooting guard prospect in the country. Williams accumulated 18 points in 24 minutes and blocked Sanders a state record six times, earning the nickname "Dikembe." Sanders will be on his way to Boston College next year, while Williams, a junior, considers making the leap straight to the NBA, after a year at either Duke or Connecticut (due to the new NBA rule). Expect him to go early in the draft in 2009 or 2010.

'Mute English'

This request for creation has been reviewed. The result is below.


'Mute English' describes the common occurrence, notably in the People's Republic of China, where students can read and understand English but cannot speak it well. The phrase is a translation of the Chinese phrase, "哑巴英语" ("ya ba ying yu" in pinyin). This occurs due to the lack of native speakers to emulate or practice with, particularly in a country as large as China. The phenomenon is sometimes referred to as 'Dumb English'. Efforts to mitigate Mute English in China have resulted in numerous commercial products, international exchanges, and the propensity with which Chinese students wish to practice their English with foreigners.

Obviously, any language can have its form of 'Mute' speakers, e.g. 'Mute Polish'. However, the phenomenon of 'Mute English' in China is a massive, acknowledged problem, one which the school systems and students attempt to address.

A related concept is the less-common 'Deaf English'.

Tarleton Perry Crawford

This request for creation has been reviewed. The result is below.


Tarleton Perry Crawford (1821-1902) was a controversial Southern Baptist missionary to Shandong, China.

Posted initially to Shanghai in 1852, the Crawfords moved to Dengzhou in Shandong, perhaps to gain more independence from mission oversight. His complex and domineering character caused much dissent and sometimes embarrassment, earning the rebuke of the American consul. He insisted on preaching as the sole duty of the missionary, and had been dismayed by the fiasco involving Charles Gutzlaff’s Chinese evangelists. He thereafter insisted Chinese should never be paid out of mission funds. His friend Dr. George Burton’s burnout due to excessive medical work in Shanghai reinforced his central conviction. Crawford itinerated widely around local villages (131 in 1875 alone). His singlemindedness even meant he closed down his wife’s school in 1879, perhaps out of jealousy at her success with Lottie Moon at Shating.

His attacks on the mission board, whom he thought should have no say on mission matters, meant he was finally struck off in 1892. Crawford formed the Gospel Mission, and eight (of fourteen) SBC missionaries joined him. By the turn of the century the mission had grown to nineteen missionaries, all wearing Chinese clothing, living in Chinese houses, and ‘solely preaching the gospel’. It took nearly a generation for SBC missionaries to overcome his ‘unattractive social philosophy and his refusal to give sensible leadership to the Christian Chinese.’ (Hyatt, 1976:59)

Martha Crawford remained loyal to her husband, though disagreed with several of his views. She formed a boys’ school in 1867 in her home. Several of the students became the backbone of pastors at the successful Huangxian and Pingdu stations. She also wrote The Three Maidens as a book for children, which was subsequently widely used throughout China. At the Second Missionary Conference (1877) she spoke on ‘Women’s Work for Women’, stressing house-to-house visitation, instructing local women and the preparation of suitable literature for them. Crawford's main work The Patriarchal Dynasties, announced his convication that the world was 14,376 years and the Garden of Eden was a theocratic confederacy, with a population of 1,174,405,120.

ARIANA NOZEMAN

This request for creation has been reviewed. The result is below.


A(d)riana Nozeman (or Noseman or Nooseman), born Ariana van den Bergh (born 1626/28-died 7 December 1661), was the first actress in The Netherlands. She made her debut on stage in 1655 at the Amsterdam Schouwburg (Amsterdam Theater) in a play which accidentally bore her name ‘Onvergelijkelijke Ariana’ (‘Uncomparable Ariana’).

Early life

The daughter of actor and playwright Adriaan van den Bergh, Ariana was born in Middelburg probably between 1626 and 1628. Her father had a travelling theatre company and translated and adapted several English dramas for the Dutch stage. Among them Thomas Kyds “the Spanish Tragedy”-renamed Don Jeronimo (1621) in Dutch. Ariana could possibly not write.

She may have learnt the craft at a very early age. It was quite common for women and children in travelling theatre companies to appear on stage as these groups often consisted of actors’ families. Later on, she possibly joined the troupe of Jan Baptist van Fornenbergh. This company took the tradition of Dutch theatre to distant corners of Europe touring the north of Germany and Scandinavia, performing at fairs as well as royal courts such as the one of Swedish Queen Christina (1653). While in Hamburg, the actress married her collegue, the actor Gillis Nozeman in the Reformed Church of nearby Altona, a free haven for dissenters and marginalized. Ariana and Gillis became known as the first actors’couple in Dutch theatre history.

Opulent costumes

On June 30 1655, the name of Ariana Nozeman was recorded for the first time in the Amsterdam theatre archives. The actress was paid 76,50 Dutch florins for 17 performances. The amount was higher than most of her male contemporaries. She was even paid more than her husband, because she brought her own opulent costumes to the scene. Unlike Italy and France where women had already made their appearances on the public stage, women’s parts in the Dutch Republic were still generally being played by men in the first half of the 17th century. The resignation of six actors at the Amsterdam Schouwburg (Theatre) may have led to Ariana Nozeman’s debut.

Ariana Nozeman mostly played serious roles. She was the first actress who ever performed Badeloch in the historical play Gijsbrecht van Aemstel by Joost van den Vondel, Holland’s most famous poet of the 17th century. She was rarely seen in farces or comical acts. She also sang and is known as the first ballet dancer in The Netherlands. She was often seen on stage together with her husband Gillis Nozeman either as a couple or as antagonists. Their daughter Maria Nozeman (born 1652) followed in her mother’s footsteps; she entered the stage at the age of six years. The Nozemans supplemented their theatre incomes by running an inn called The Camel on one of the Amsterdam canals.


Calvinist opposition

By putting herself on public show, Ariana Nozeman would surely not have had the approval of the stern Dutch Reformed Church. Simon Schama in The Embarassment of Riches says: “In 1655 the first actress appeared in the Amsterdam theater, strengthening the clergy’s view that it was the sink of the vilest iniquity. But Adriana Nozeman went on to make an illustrious career there nonetheless”. Holland – in spite of its Calvinist character- was a secular society and Amsterdam, the capital of the mighty Dutch Republic, known for its free and tolerant climate. Banned philosophers such as Locke and Descartes got their works published here. Pornography was printed here as well.

The stage curtain dropped for Ariana Nozeman when she was not even 35 years old. She died on 7 December 1661. Three months earlier she had lost her only 7-year old son Mathijs. Maybe she died of heartbreak or maybe she fell victim to the pest. She was buried in the Oude Kerk (Old Church), now in the heart of Amsterdam’s famous red light district. Her death meant a great loss for the Amsterdam Schouwburg. They contracted immediately four new actresses to replace her.

Three hundred years after her stage debut, in 1955, the first woman on the Dutch stage was commemorated. The city council of Amsterdam honoured her memory with a street named Ariana Nozemanstraat in the western part of the city.

If your request was declined and you want to make changes and try again, copy and paste your article into a new submission and make your changes there.

David Fidess (birthdate unknown) is an actor and amateur boxer currently residing in and around the Pearl River Delta of southern China. In the past he has also worked as a doorman, an English teacher and as hired muscle.

"The Fidness" was born in Vancouver, British Columbia little is known about his early life, except that his childhood was difficult and troubled, forcing him into a life of crime by his late teens. There are rumous that his grandfather was the founder of the Vancouver chapter of the Freemasons, yet it is unknown whether there is any truth in these claims. While there are few definite facts relating to this period of his life, unconfirmed reports tell of him having a reputation on the streets of Vancouver for extreme violence and humiliating those that crossed his path by beating them and then proceeding to defecate or excrete onto their faces.

In 1995, wanting to escape his tough life in Vancouver, Fiddes left Canada for Hong Kong in order to pursue his acting and boxing careers. He soon found work, starring alongside Jean-Claude van Damme and Rob Schneider in the film Knock Off1. In order to support himself whilst trying to further his acting career, Fidess found work as a bouncer at various establishments around Hong Kong, where his no-nonsense attitude made him many new enemies. Fiddes was particularly unpopular with the South Asian population of Hong Kong, who viewed him as a threat. This problem was exacberated when he fell into difficulties with the triads in unclear circumstances (it is suspected that it was related to some kind of illegal boxing, although nothing has ever been proved).

Fidess's problems in Hong Kong culminated in a boxing match in Hong Kong against the a Hong Kong policeman, Joe Tsui Ho-yin(徐浩然), in which Fiddes was knocked out1. Fiddes claims that the "gloves were rigged", despite the fact that the two pairs came out equally in a weighing. Angered by, what he saw as preferential treatment for the policeman, Fidess left for Mainland China.

To this date, Fidess has been struggling to continue acting and boxing. He has had numerous offers to return to Hong Kong and start boxing competitively again, but is in locked in a battle of wills with the Hong Kong Boxing Association, as they refuse to admit that they were mistaken and the now semi-legendary gloves were rigged. He currently resides in Zhuhai , having lived in Chaozhou and Shekou in Shenzhen, amongst other places and he teaches English and self-defence for a living.

Fidess is a keen linguist and in his spare time has mastered multiple East Asian languages through self-study. He attributes his sucess in this field to his self-designed technique of language learning, which he hopes to publish in the coming future. He also enjoys a deep spirituality and has made pilgrimages to many sites around China and maintains a healthy interest in the People's Police in China and their operations.

Edwards Personality Inventory

This request for creation has been reviewed. The result is below.


The Edwards personality Inventory revised edition

The Edwards Personality Inventory, revised edition, (EPI:R) was designed primarily for use in research and counselling. The inventory consists of 440 items and provides scores on 18 personality scales. Each scale is identified by a single name and a three-letter abbreviation.

Because scale names can easily mean different things to different people, abstract trait names such as "ego-strength," "rigidity," and "extraversion" have been avoided in assigning names to the scales in the EPI. Instead, an attempt has been made to assign names to the scales that imply nothing more than a summary of the content of the items in the scales.

There are no items in the EPI inquiring into an exam­inee's religious or political beliefs or family relationships. There are no items referring to delusions, hallucinations, health, or bodily function. Furthermore, almost all items that have extreme socially undesirable scale values have been eliminated, because of evidence (Walsh, Layton, & Klieger, 1966) that college students regard being asked to respond True or False to such items as an invasion of privacy. In general, the individual responding to the items in the EPI will not find the task offensive.

Scales

THE 18 EPI SCALES WITH A SAMPLE ITEM FROM EACH SCALE

Those who know me well would say that I:
(Approval): Am anxious to please others.
(Anxiety): Become anxious if I believe my performance is to be compared with others.
(Sensitive): Am sensitive and easily hurt by others.
(Sympathy): Will tell my troubles to anyone who is willing to listen.
(Avoidance): Try to avoid trouble of any kind.
(Influenced): Permit others to push me around.
(Cooperative): Enjoy working on a project with a group.
(Competitive): Try my best to win in any game I play.
(Articulate): Can say what I want to say without fumbling around for the right word.
(Responsibility): Am not afraid of responsibility.
(Friendly): Have never had any difficulty in making friends.
(Negative self image): Have relatively little confidence in myself.
(Blunt): Say things that irritate others.
(Helpful): Do many things to help others.
(Considerate): Am tolerant of those who disagree with me.
(Dependent): Am very dependent on others for solutions to my problems.
(Shy): Am easily embarrassed in social situations.
(Virtuous): Have never been unkind to another person.

Copyrights

Copyrights of the EPI:R are held by the Allen L. Edwards Living Trust. In Europe they are represented by a startup publisher called Test Dimensions.

Patton, a dog shot by Tennesee police

On New Year's Day 2003 a North Carolinian family, heading home from their 3-day vacation to Nashville, TN, was pulled over after witnesses saw money fly from their car. James Smoak, the driver, had filled his car's gas tank at a Davidson County, TN gas station and left his wallet on the roof of his station wagon. When witnesses who saw the money contacted police, the police, instructed to make a felony stop of the vehicle, pulled the station wagon over on I-40 in Putnam County, TN at exit 287. Tennessee Highway Patrol, assisted by Cookevill Police, pulled the car over and handcuffed the family. Pamela Smoak, James' wife, and Brandon Hayden, Pamela's 17-year-old son, were also in the car. The family also had in tow with them two canines. After being handcuffed, the family pleaded with police to shut their car doors to keep their dogs from getting out. Moments later, Patton, a pitt-bull, jumped from the car and came towards police. The family pleaded again with police to let them secure their dog. As the dog came towards police with his tail wagging, Cookeville police officer Eric Hall shot the canine in the head with his 12-gauge shotgun. Hall later wrote in the report of the incident that he feared the animal would bite him. Officer Hall had been involved in another incident in 1998 where he shot a canine accused of aggression.

Cookeville police reviewed the police video and also had it reviewed, independently, by Maryland Police Chief Mary Ann Viverette. Cookeville Police originally decided that Hall's actions were justified since the officer feared the actions of the canine however, Viverette's review of the video and incident caused her to write about her concern that, after seeing there were no other individuals in the family's station wagon but seeing the dogs, the officers did not close the car doors. Cookeville Police Chief Bob Terry put Officer Hall on administrative duty for the duration of compiling report but afterwards stated the Officer Hall would be placed back in the field. Officer Hall was never the subject of any disciplinary action for this incident.

This incident led to the response of the ASPCA, who called for police officers be trained to read an animals' body language so that future, innocent pets would not die in similar events. The incident was also widly criticized by the public. Officer Hall and his family were the subject of many death threats and later Officer Hall sued the city on grounds of violation of privacy since they released his personnel file to the public.

Later analysis of the police footage shows discrepencies from what actually happened that New Year's Day and what officers recall in the report.

Taylor Williams ( Suffield Academy) played against Rakim Sanders (St. Andrew's), who many consider the number one shooting guard prospect in the country. Williams accumulated 18 points in 24 minutes and blocked Sanders a state record six times, earning the nickname "Dikembe." Sanders will be on his way to Boston College next year, while Williams, a junior, considers making the leap straight to the NBA, after a year at either Duke or Connecticut (due to the new NBA rule). Expect him to go early in the draft in 2009 or 2010.

'Mute English'

This request for creation has been reviewed. The result is below.


'Mute English' describes the common occurrence, notably in the People's Republic of China, where students can read and understand English but cannot speak it well. The phrase is a translation of the Chinese phrase, "哑巴英语" ("ya ba ying yu" in pinyin). This occurs due to the lack of native speakers to emulate or practice with, particularly in a country as large as China. The phenomenon is sometimes referred to as 'Dumb English'. Efforts to mitigate Mute English in China have resulted in numerous commercial products, international exchanges, and the propensity with which Chinese students wish to practice their English with foreigners.

Obviously, any language can have its form of 'Mute' speakers, e.g. 'Mute Polish'. However, the phenomenon of 'Mute English' in China is a massive, acknowledged problem, one which the school systems and students attempt to address.

A related concept is the less-common 'Deaf English'.

Tarleton Perry Crawford

This request for creation has been reviewed. The result is below.


Tarleton Perry Crawford (1821-1902) was a controversial Southern Baptist missionary to Shandong, China.

Posted initially to Shanghai in 1852, the Crawfords moved to Dengzhou in Shandong, perhaps to gain more independence from mission oversight. His complex and domineering character caused much dissent and sometimes embarrassment, earning the rebuke of the American consul. He insisted on preaching as the sole duty of the missionary, and had been dismayed by the fiasco involving Charles Gutzlaff’s Chinese evangelists. He thereafter insisted Chinese should never be paid out of mission funds. His friend Dr. George Burton’s burnout due to excessive medical work in Shanghai reinforced his central conviction. Crawford itinerated widely around local villages (131 in 1875 alone). His singlemindedness even meant he closed down his wife’s school in 1879, perhaps out of jealousy at her success with Lottie Moon at Shating.

His attacks on the mission board, whom he thought should have no say on mission matters, meant he was finally struck off in 1892. Crawford formed the Gospel Mission, and eight (of fourteen) SBC missionaries joined him. By the turn of the century the mission had grown to nineteen missionaries, all wearing Chinese clothing, living in Chinese houses, and ‘solely preaching the gospel’. It took nearly a generation for SBC missionaries to overcome his ‘unattractive social philosophy and his refusal to give sensible leadership to the Christian Chinese.’ (Hyatt, 1976:59)

Martha Crawford remained loyal to her husband, though disagreed with several of his views. She formed a boys’ school in 1867 in her home. Several of the students became the backbone of pastors at the successful Huangxian and Pingdu stations. She also wrote The Three Maidens as a book for children, which was subsequently widely used throughout China. At the Second Missionary Conference (1877) she spoke on ‘Women’s Work for Women’, stressing house-to-house visitation, instructing local women and the preparation of suitable literature for them. Crawford's main work The Patriarchal Dynasties, announced his convication that the world was 14,376 years and the Garden of Eden was a theocratic confederacy, with a population of 1,174,405,120.

ARIANA NOZEMAN

This request for creation has been reviewed. The result is below.


A(d)riana Nozeman (or Noseman or Nooseman), born Ariana van den Bergh (born 1626/28-died 7 December 1661), was the first actress in The Netherlands. She made her debut on stage in 1655 at the Amsterdam Schouwburg (Amsterdam Theater) in a play which accidentally bore her name ‘Onvergelijkelijke Ariana’ (‘Uncomparable Ariana’).

Early life

The daughter of actor and playwright Adriaan van den Bergh, Ariana was born in Middelburg probably between 1626 and 1628. Her father had a travelling theatre company and translated and adapted several English dramas for the Dutch stage. Among them Thomas Kyds “the Spanish Tragedy”-renamed Don Jeronimo (1621) in Dutch. Ariana could possibly not write.

She may have learnt the craft at a very early age. It was quite common for women and children in travelling theatre companies to appear on stage as these groups often consisted of actors’ families. Later on, she possibly joined the troupe of Jan Baptist van Fornenbergh. This company took the tradition of Dutch theatre to distant corners of Europe touring the north of Germany and Scandinavia, performing at fairs as well as royal courts such as the one of Swedish Queen Christina (1653). While in Hamburg, the actress married her collegue, the actor Gillis Nozeman in the Reformed Church of nearby Altona, a free haven for dissenters and marginalized. Ariana and Gillis became known as the first actors’couple in Dutch theatre history.

Opulent costumes

On June 30 1655, the name of Ariana Nozeman was recorded for the first time in the Amsterdam theatre archives. The actress was paid 76,50 Dutch florins for 17 performances. The amount was higher than most of her male contemporaries. She was even paid more than her husband, because she brought her own opulent costumes to the scene. Unlike Italy and France where women had already made their appearances on the public stage, women’s parts in the Dutch Republic were still generally being played by men in the first half of the 17th century. The resignation of six actors at the Amsterdam Schouwburg (Theatre) may have led to Ariana Nozeman’s debut.

Ariana Nozeman mostly played serious roles. She was the first actress who ever performed Badeloch in the historical play Gijsbrecht van Aemstel by Joost van den Vondel, Holland’s most famous poet of the 17th century. She was rarely seen in farces or comical acts. She also sang and is known as the first ballet dancer in The Netherlands. She was often seen on stage together with her husband Gillis Nozeman either as a couple or as antagonists. Their daughter Maria Nozeman (born 1652) followed in her mother’s footsteps; she entered the stage at the age of six years. The Nozemans supplemented their theatre incomes by running an inn called The Camel on one of the Amsterdam canals.


Calvinist opposition

By putting herself on public show, Ariana Nozeman would surely not have had the approval of the stern Dutch Reformed Church. Simon Schama in The Embarassment of Riches says: “In 1655 the first actress appeared in the Amsterdam theater, strengthening the clergy’s view that it was the sink of the vilest iniquity. But Adriana Nozeman went on to make an illustrious career there nonetheless”. Holland – in spite of its Calvinist character- was a secular society and Amsterdam, the capital of the mighty Dutch Republic, known for its free and tolerant climate. Banned philosophers such as Locke and Descartes got their works published here. Pornography was printed here as well.

The stage curtain dropped for Ariana Nozeman when she was not even 35 years old. She died on 7 December 1661. Three months earlier she had lost her only 7-year old son Mathijs. Maybe she died of heartbreak or maybe she fell victim to the pest. She was buried in the Oude Kerk (Old Church), now in the heart of Amsterdam’s famous red light district. Her death meant a great loss for the Amsterdam Schouwburg. They contracted immediately four new actresses to replace her.

Three hundred years after her stage debut, in 1955, the first woman on the Dutch stage was commemorated. The city council of Amsterdam honoured her memory with a street named Ariana Nozemanstraat in the western part of the city.

If your request was declined and you want to make changes and try again, copy and paste your article into a new submission and make your changes there.

David Fidess (birthdate unknown) is an actor and amateur boxer currently residing in and around the Pearl River Delta of southern China. In the past he has also worked as a doorman, an English teacher and as hired muscle.

"The Fidness" was born in Vancouver, British Columbia little is known about his early life, except that his childhood was difficult and troubled, forcing him into a life of crime by his late teens. There are rumous that his grandfather was the founder of the Vancouver chapter of the Freemasons, yet it is unknown whether there is any truth in these claims. While there are few definite facts relating to this period of his life, unconfirmed reports tell of him having a reputation on the streets of Vancouver for extreme violence and humiliating those that crossed his path by beating them and then proceeding to defecate or excrete onto their faces.

In 1995, wanting to escape his tough life in Vancouver, Fiddes left Canada for Hong Kong in order to pursue his acting and boxing careers. He soon found work, starring alongside Jean-Claude van Damme and Rob Schneider in the film Knock Off1. In order to support himself whilst trying to further his acting career, Fidess found work as a bouncer at various establishments around Hong Kong, where his no-nonsense attitude made him many new enemies. Fiddes was particularly unpopular with the South Asian population of Hong Kong, who viewed him as a threat. This problem was exacberated when he fell into difficulties with the triads in unclear circumstances (it is suspected that it was related to some kind of illegal boxing, although nothing has ever been proved).

Fidess's problems in Hong Kong culminated in a boxing match in Hong Kong against the a Hong Kong policeman, Joe Tsui Ho-yin(徐浩然), in which Fiddes was knocked out1. Fiddes claims that the "gloves were rigged", despite the fact that the two pairs came out equally in a weighing. Angered by, what he saw as preferential treatment for the policeman, Fidess left for Mainland China.

To this date, Fidess has been struggling to continue acting and boxing. He has had numerous offers to return to Hong Kong and start boxing competitively again, but is in locked in a battle of wills with the Hong Kong Boxing Association, as they refuse to admit that they were mistaken and the now semi-legendary gloves were rigged. He currently resides in Zhuhai , having lived in Chaozhou and Shekou in Shenzhen, amongst other places and he teaches English and self-defence for a living.

Fidess is a keen linguist and in his spare time has mastered multiple East Asian languages through self-study. He attributes his sucess in this field to his self-designed technique of language learning, which he hopes to publish in the coming future. He also enjoys a deep spirituality and has made pilgrimages to many sites around China and maintains a healthy interest in the People's Police in China and their operations.

The Edwards personality Inventory revised edition

The Edwards Personality Inventory, revised edition, (EPI:R) was designed primarily for use in research and counselling. The inventory consists of 440 items and provides scores on 18 personality scales. Each scale is identified by a single name and a three-letter abbreviation.

Because scale names can easily mean different things to different people, abstract trait names such as "ego-strength," "rigidity," and "extraversion" have been avoided in assigning names to the scales in the EPI. Instead, an attempt has been made to assign names to the scales that imply nothing more than a summary of the content of the items in the scales.

There are no items in the EPI inquiring into an exam­inee's religious or political beliefs or family relationships. There are no items referring to delusions, hallucinations, health, or bodily function. Furthermore, almost all items that have extreme socially undesirable scale values have been eliminated, because of evidence (Walsh, Layton, & Klieger, 1966) that college students regard being asked to respond True or False to such items as an invasion of privacy. In general, the individual responding to the items in the EPI will not find the task offensive.

Patton, a dog shot by Tennesee police

On New Year's Day 2003 a North Carolinian family, heading home from their 3-day vacation to Nashville, TN, was pulled over after witnesses saw money fly from their car. James Smoak, the driver, had filled his car's gas tank at a Davidson County, TN gas station and left his wallet on the roof of his station wagon. When witnesses who saw the money contacted police, the police, instructed to make a felony stop of the vehicle, pulled the station wagon over on I-40 in Putnam County, TN at exit 287. Tennessee Highway Patrol, assisted by Cookevill Police, pulled the car over and handcuffed the family. Pamela Smoak, James' wife, and Brandon Hayden, Pamela's 17-year-old son, were also in the car. The family also had in tow with them two canines. After being handcuffed, the family pleaded with police to shut their car doors to keep their dogs from getting out. Moments later, Patton, a pitt-bull, jumped from the car and came towards police. The family pleaded again with police to let them secure their dog. As the dog came towards police with his tail wagging, Cookeville police officer Eric Hall shot the canine in the head with his 12-gauge shotgun. Hall later wrote in the report of the incident that he feared the animal would bite him. Officer Hall had been involved in another incident in 1998 where he shot a canine accused of aggression.

Cookeville police reviewed the police video and also had it reviewed, independently, by Maryland Police Chief Mary Ann Viverette. Cookeville Police originally decided that Hall's actions were justified since the officer feared the actions of the canine however, Viverette's review of the video and incident caused her to write about her concern that, after seeing there were no other individuals in the family's station wagon but seeing the dogs, the officers did not close the car doors. Cookeville Police Chief Bob Terry put Officer Hall on administrative duty for the duration of compiling report but afterwards stated the Officer Hall would be placed back in the field. Officer Hall was never the subject of any disciplinary action for this incident.

This incident led to the response of the ASPCA, who called for police officers be trained to read an animals' body language so that future, innocent pets would not die in similar events. The incident was also widly criticized by the public. Officer Hall and his family were the subject of many death threats and later Officer Hall sued the city on grounds of violation of privacy since they released his personnel file to the public.

Later analysis of the police footage shows discrepencies from what actually happened that New Year's Day and what officers recall in the report.
