A Believers' Web
by Brittany Shoot | July 2011
Digital Jesus: The Making of a New Christian Fundamentalist Community on the Internet, by Robert Glenn Howard. New York University Press.
Writing a succinct but comprehensive ethnographic account of early online Christian communities is a daunting task, but Robert Glenn Howard manages to pull it off with his hefty overview. He focuses on Internet evangelism and how some traditionalists have found it an unsatisfying substitute for brick-and-mortar churches, even as it has inspired multitudes of other individual believers and sparked communities that are like-minded but geographically disconnected.
Take Action on This Issue
In Digital Jesus, Howard introduces readers to a lively cast of characters, including retired physicist Lambert Dolphin and online evangelist and writer Marilyn Agee. Though both lived in California and built two of the first Christian web communities, they were unaffiliated, yet connected as early as 1999 by thousands of believers who treated them as part of the same spiritual web. To explain their notability, Howard compares these virtual crusaders to early Christian evangelists such as D.L. Moody, nonordained leaders who feel called to minister. He explores how Agee, who believed God had given her access to divine knowledge, interpreted the events of Sept. 11, 2001, for her community, which at that time numbered in the thousands.
Generally speaking, much of Howard's analysis focuses on how the Internet has enabled groups of disparate believers to prosper. He traces the rise of specific online Christian resources with an emphasis on the tools used by individual groups. For example, early Usenet newsgroups, virtual forums that act as public bulletin boards, were diverse spaces in which fundamentalist language was not welcomed. Instead, he found that only as the Internet became an increasingly common way to find like-minded believers was there enough interest to make viable forum-based communities on sites such as BibleForums.org, MyChurch.org, and even RaptureForums.com. Though some web-based communities have since abandoned forums and migrated to networked blogs, some of the most robust faith-based virtual communities have held tight to technologies that offer discursive deliberation space. Anyone who has spent more than 10 minutes reading a thread on Facebook or trying to follow replies on Twitter knows that sometimes only an online salon will do.
According to Howard, it's worth noting that homogeneous online spaces are not always a good thing. Christian communication enclaves can protect members from offensive comments by banning outsiders, but avoiding other worldviews altogether can lead to insular spaces rife with prejudice against other faiths, difficult viewpoints, and healthy debate. Similarly, he traces the growing rift between the need to express individual authority and engage others in debate and the proliferation of the participatory web.
Most poignant, Howard points to the Internet's power to disseminate and keep alive predictions about the Rapture. He doesn't pass judgment on the trend, but he does spend considerable time poring over virtual Christian apocalypticism, detailing how it has influenced a modern revival of end-times prophecies and storytelling. Even beyond Howard's scope, this ideological renaissance is apparent in the popularity of Tim LaHaye's Left Behind series, films like The Road and The Book of Eli, and even in more marginal popular culture and academic studies, such as Slovenian philosopher Slavoj ?i?ek's most recent tome, Living in the End Times.
Howard concludes that believers have an increased responsibility for the nature of their religiosity when they're able to construct their spiritual worldview from the multitude of perspectives online. In a time when faith can be and is so easily customized, personal ideology is increasingly constructed beyond the confines of traditional religious institutions and with a more voluntary, independent approach to spiritual seeking.
Ethnography can be a cumbersome genre, and though at times Digital Jesus is a dense, academic read, it offers insight into the ways some Christians have moved away from formal institutionalized religion toward a virtual ekklesia, or online worship and fellowship space. Some have found space to prepare for the Rapture, and others have simply found community beyond the four walls of their local church.

Today there are 3 way traffic lights at the roundabout by the Boot and Slipper, there are also roadworks on Bois Lane, Chesham Bois and the road is closed except for access.
What genius decided to have roadworks on both roads?
All traffic from Amersham to Chesham and vice versa now has to go via the A416 and I even have another set of roadwork traffic lights in Waterside to get through just to get to Amersham. It took me 30 minutes at lunch time to get from where I live, into Chesham and then up the hill to Amersham....
I've told my husband to get off the train at Chalfont and Latimer this evening and I'll pick him up from there as at least I know that will only take 15 mins, at most, each way.
Whilst I accept that the water/gas pipes need replacing do they really have to be done at the same time?
Roadworks On A416 Outside Boot And Slipper And Lots Of Other Places...

So much for the council coordinating roadworks. I thought that was the whole idea of them being let know by the utility company doing the work.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 09:12 AM
The Amersham end of White Lion Road was apparently closed, without any prior warning from what I can discern, for a period yesterday afternoon.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 09:54 AM
Seems there are only two way lights today, about time the gas board cleared off. They must have been about Amersham for two years now.
Posted 11 May 2012 - 05:02 PM
I've avoided the road outside the Boot and Slipper for the last month due to the traffic lights, however on Tuesday morning after dropping our other car at Priests for a service, I forgot and got stuck at 6.15am and Alf almost missed his train, it was literally just pulling in as we got to the station...
Does anyone have any idea how much longer they will be there for? Also, any idea if they are planning on resurfacing that bit of road once the gas/water (whoever it is) have finished?

HAZARD—Accountability scores for Kentucky schools released Friday by the state department of education show improvement in many of the schools in the county — including those ranked among the lowest in the state last year.
The accountability scores are part of Kentucky's School Report Card started in 2010. Schools and districts earn points on a scale from 0 to 100 based on how well they perform on five different components of the accountability system: achievement, gap, growth, college/career readiness, and graduation rate.
"The statewide data clearly show we are making progress, though slower than we would like," Education Commissioner Terry Holliday said, adding that students' scores have improved across the board since 2012.
"In just three years we've gone from only a third of our students being ready for college and career to more than half," Holliday said. "That's around 8,000 students who now have a much better shot at getting a good job, paying taxes, and becoming self-sufficient Kentuckians."
The state district average score increased from the 2011-2012 school year by 2.1 points, going from 55.2 to 57.3.
For the second year in a row, the Perry County School District failed to meet the statewide average this year, falling short at 53.1. This, though, is a marked improvement from the 2011-2012 school year when the district's score was 46.2, putting them in the eighth percentile in the state; the district now sits in the 37th percentile, but is still classified as "needs improvement."
The Hazard Independent School District improved slightly from last year, going from a score of 58.4 to 59.5 and jumping from the 71st to the 81st percentile. The district is classified as "proficient/progressing."
Those schools and districts falling below the 70th percentile are classified as "needs improvement," according to the Kentucky Department of Education. Those between the 70th and 89th percentile classify as "proficient," and those at or above the 90th are considered "distinguished."
In 2011, Perry County Central was listed as a persistently low-achieving school. For this reason an educational recovery plan and support team were put in place at the school to help make improvements. In the 2011-2012 school year, Perry Central scored 41.3 overall, putting it in the fifth percentile. This year the school scored 55.3 and leaped to the 55th percentile. The school also improved in college/career readiness, going from a score of 25.7 last year to 55.4 this year.
"We are proud of the dedication of our teachers, principals, and staff for their work to improve the quality of education for every child," Superintendent Jonathan Jett said. "This achievement reaches wider than just the school community; it extends throughout the entire county, including all stakeholders, parents, businesses, and media."
Buckhorn High School improved from 46.4 last year to 50.8, leaving it in the 19th percentile. The average score for middle and elementary schools in the district was 51.8, with the vast majority of those schools being classified as "needs improvement."
"In many of our schools, only minor adjustments are necessary, while in others we will implement more aggressive changes," Jett said.
In more than half of the schools in the Perry County district, improvement was not seen in all scores. Leatherwood Elementary showed a decline in both elementary and middle school scores, going from 57.1 last year for the elementary grades to 52.4 and dropping to the 31st percentile. The score for the middle school grades at Leatherwood fell almost 10 points — from 61.5 to 50.7 — dropping them from the 81st percentile to the 37th.
Elementary and middle school scores also fell for Buckhorn School, and elementary scores fell in R. W. Combs Elementary, Robinson Elementary, and A.B. Combs Elementary.
"We will learn from the schools that are succeeding in specific areas and note the characteristics of highly effective teaching and learning practices and share those best practices across schools so that all students can succeed," Jett said.
Chavies Elementary, which was scored as one of the lowest schools in the state last year, ranking in the bottom one percentile, vastly improved its scores. The school scored in the ninth percentile and improved its overall score from 20.8 to 44.5 for the elementary grades, and from the fourth to the 18th percentile in the middle grades, improving its score from 37.4 to 53.8.
Hazard High School improved its score, as well, increasing from 59.4 to 60.4 and moving into the 78th percentile. Roy G. Eversole Elementary School improved from 58.7 to 61.4, jumping from the 55th percentile to the 65th; Hazard Middle School improved slightly from 58.4 to 58.8, moving up to the 70th percentile from the 68th.

Company earns 'F' grade from BBB
When you deal with 20,000 customers selling magazines, Dan Wilson, owner of Exclusive Media Services in Oxford, says having complaints is unavoidable.
However, the Better Business Bureau claims having 128 complaints filed against a company the size of EMS is unacceptable. The BBB showed its views by giving the magazine sales company an "F" rating. (October 18, 2010, Page 1)

Leave of Absence Policy Takes Effect Fall Semester 2012Posted Jul. 12, 2012
Effective in Fall 2012, a graduate student Leave of Absence policy will be in place. This policy will apply to ALL graduate students at Kent State, regardless of their start date. Below are some important points about this policy:
- Degree-seeking graduate students are expected to be enrolled at least one term per year.
- Degree-seeking students not enrolled at Kent State for a year MUST reapply to the degree program if they want to continue their study. The reapplication may include but is not limited to a new admission application, application fee, and transcripts.
- Students must apply for their leave of absence BEFORE they take time off, and it must be approved in advance, or it will just be considered that they have voluntarily withdrawn.
- A leave of absence is granted to degree-seeking graduate students in active status who must be away from their studies for one or more semesters due to personal, family, financial or other compelling reasons. To be eligible for a leave of absence, students must have completed at least one full term of enrollment (on a part-time or full-time basis) and be in good academic standing.
- International students should contact the Office of Global Education before the initiation of a leave of absence and before returning to campus to ensure compliance with SEVIS regulations and visa restrictions.
The entire policy is available at http://www.kent.edu/catalog/2012/info/policies/loag/.
Please note:The time limit for degree completion must be followed in that coursework may be no older than seven years at the time of graduation.The complete time-limit policy for the MLIS degree may be found on the SLIS website, http://www.kent.edu/slis/students/frequently-asked-questions.cfm.
Suggested Actions:
- Because the policy is not in effect until August 27, 2012, if you are an inactive student and plan to complete your degree program, you need to complete and submit a Graduate Re-enrollment form by Friday, August 20, 2012, and enroll at least one course for Fall 2012 to become an active student. Otherwise, after August 27, you will need to reapply to the program (a new program application, application fee and possibly transcripts and other documents) if you wish to continue the program study. You may request for a Graduate Re-enrollment form from Elizabeth Ellison (email@example.com). Elizabeth will provide the form and submission details.
- If you are currently an active student and plan to take time off in the future, you need to apply for the leave of absence BEFORE the semester you plan to leave, and the application must be approved for your future return without a new application into the program.
- Prior to applying for a leave of absence, students should consider its potential implications for such matters as funding (including assistantships and veterans benefits), loan repayment, immigration status, health insurance, university housing and time-to-degree completion. For further information about the effect on these areas, we recommend that you contact Student Financial Aid at email@example.com or 330-672-2972.
If you have questions about this policy, please send them to Elizabeth Ellison (firstname.lastname@example.com); Cheryl Tennant (email@example.com); or Yin Zhang (email@example.com).

Comment: My wife loves the jacket
The Detour 8303 is made out of top grain premium buffalo leather, and is black with antique brass looking hardware.It's available in sizes small thru three X and fits accurately per the size chart, so, if you plan on wearing this jacket in very cold weather and will need to layer, you may want to order one size larger. Jessica, here is 5'8" 145 and is wearing a medium jacket over a t-shirt. The main closure features a reinforced metal YKK zipper and has a mandarin style collar for a low profile look. The front of the jacket has zippered vents for breathability, and hand warmer pockets for easy access storage. High viz piping spans the chest and extends onto the shoulders of the sleeves for extra visibility at night. The sleeves also feature zippered vents at the biceps and snap and zipper cuffs for easy on and off. The waist features zippered gussets for added flexibility and comfort when you're on your motorcycle. On the back of the 8303, there are two zippered kidney vents to extract hot air, expansion seems on the shoulders to make it easy to reach the handlebars, and more charcoal colored reflective piping for added visibility at night. The interior of the 8303 has a removable full sleeve quilted thermal liner that is flanked on either side by a pocket. On warmer days, you can remove the liner by unzipping it from the shell and unsnapping it from the cuffs of the sleeves. With the lining removed, you can see the fixed mesh lining that enhances comfort by promoting airflow.

Product Description
The twelve-song set leads off with "Tall Cotton," a track whose title was inspired by a guitar maker friend in Canada, says Bibb. "As I was walking out the door of her studio, she said, `Man, you're walking in tall cotton,'" he recalls. "I said, `What?' She said, `My mother used to tell me that. It means you're doing fine. You're on top of your game.' So the expression eventually turned into a song." The track features Congolese guitarist Kahanga "Master Vumbi" Dekula, who plays in a distinctly African style. "For me," says Bibb, "to talk about tall cotton, which is a very southern American expression, and to connect it to African culture is musically, historically and personally very resonant."
Further in, "Story Book Hero" is a tongue-in-cheek tune reminiscent of the romantic ballads of the 1930s, when male singers would brag to the ladies about their masculine charms. "Smooth talkin' playboys may try an' get your number," Bibb sings, "but I wanna show you how good a man can be, I long to deliver your every heart's desire, Darlin' you're my destiny." The song closes with the singer rattling off names like Robin Hood, John Henry and other folk heroes who emerged from the collective consciousness of past generations to embolden the downtrodden. "It's intended as a spirit-over-circumstances kind of song," says Bibb, "but in a lighthearted way."
"Heading Home" is a song that Bibb considers very autobiographical. "My roots are really in American folk music in all of its glorious forms - from Southern blues and gospel to mountain music, bluegrass and country - and later on, the folk singers of the `50s and `60s who gathered all of that together and made their own statements," says the New York native, who has lived in various parts of Europe and the UK since the early 1970s. "The song is about being disillusioned in the late `60s," he says. "It's about finding a way to gather up those wonderful threads that made us so optimistic at that time, and try to bring it back home."
Bibb ratchets up the energy to a near rapturous pitch in a live rendition of "In My Father's House," a driving, spiritually charged profession of brotherhood that's reminiscent of the soul classic "People Get Ready." On a more intimate scale is the earthy "Buckets of Rain," a song originally penned by Bob Dylan and delivered here in a cheery midtempo arrangement featuring guitarist Martin Simpson's intricate fingerpicking.
The closer, "Still Livin' On," is Bibb's nod to past masters and musical influences - Mississippi John Hurt, Elizabeth Cotten, Pops Staples and other heroes of blues and gospel whose spirit and influence still lives in their music.
On the good days as well as the bad, Bibb continues to channel these resonant voices from long ago and make them an integral part of his own music and world view. The lesson in Diamond Days is that the road of life is filled with peaks and valleys, and Bibb's sage advice is to accept it all with courage and grace.

Heavy rains snarl traffic, cancel Sounder service

Annie Mulligan / For The Herald
The infamous sliding house on Burl Place in the Valley View neighborhood has fallen almost completely out of view from the street. Recent rains may cause the house to lose more ground.
More than 1.7 inches fell on Paine Field airport in Everett between midnight and the late afternoon. That followed nearly an inch of rain in parts of Everett on Sunday.
Gusty winds Monday brought another set of challenges in north Snohomish County. Roughly 250 customers, including the Navy commissary, lost power in north Marysville for about two hours and there were other scattered outages elsewhere, according to the Snohomish County PUD.
The forecast doesn't get much better Tuesday.
More rain is expected through Wednesday with a break in the weather forecast for Thanksgiving Day, according to the National Weather Service in Seattle.
Rain-soaked roads were closed in Bothell and Mountlake Terrace on Monday and the downpour turned a stretch of Airport Road in Everett into a large wading pool.
Mudslides on the bluffs bordering Puget Sound also canceled Sounder North train service from Seattle to Everett on Monday evening. Train traffic will resume after 1 p.m. Wednesday if the tracks remain clear, transit officials said.
In Mountlake Terrace, Hall Creek spilled its banks Monday afternoon, forcing the closure of two thoroughfares for several hours.
Police barricaded 216th Street SW and 220th Street SW near Highway 99 because of the high water.
"It just overwhelmed the capacity of the stream," Mountlake Terrace police Cmdr. Doug Hansen said. "It just became a torrent. Our traffic is a mess."
Urban flooding also brought grief to other Mountlake Terrace neighborhoods, including a cul de sac at 53rd Place West where water rose to the grille of a Ford Mustang parked in front of one home. Public works crews brought in sandbags and pumps to try to divert water.
"You get a ton of rain in a short amount of time and you find out where your weak spots are," said Chad Phelan, a management analyst with the city's public works department.
The flooding kept firefighters in south Snohomish County busy.
"We had several calls from homes with flooded basements in Mountlake Terrace and Edmonds," Snohomish County Fire District 1 spokeswoman Leslie Hynes said.
The heavy rain caused sewer outfalls in Everett to overflow into the Snohomish River and Port Gardner Bay on Monday. Just how much waste escaped was unknown, officials said. Everett notified local agencies including state departments of health and ecology as well as the Snohomish Health District and Port of Everett.
The National Weather Service issued a flood advisory for several rivers, including the Stillaguamish. An advisory means nothing is imminent but people should monitor river levels.
On Monday, the biggest concern was city streets and creeks rather than the rivers.
"We're always watching the river and local creeks and streams," Arlington city spokeswoman Kristin Banfield said. "Our crews have been out every day for the past two months sweeping the streets to get as many of the leaves up as we can."
Crews also were checking storm drains and detention ponds to make sure they are clear to handle the rainy season.
The storm brought good news for Stevens Pass with more than 24 inches of snow in a 24-hour period. The ski resort announced that it will open for the season on Tuesday. The ski area will be open from noon to 4 p.m. on Tuesday and from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Wednesday to Sunday.

How does the job growth forecast look for those receiving solar training?
Click here for our more information on our Solar Training courses
As electricity rates increase, the demand for renewable energy and green building programs like LEED, will increase at a corresponding rate. This also means that the specialty credentials, such as the NABCEP Certification, will become vital to new installation projects, even more than general credentials, such as the Green Associate or BPI. The job outlook is exceptional for those who partake in solar training courses, and become a credentialed professional in the field of renewable energy. While the speculation continues about whether a crisis will develop from the increase in distributed energy generation; there is no doubt that renewables will be part of the future. As such, those able to design and install solar systems will have the lion's share of the good paying jobs in the coming decades. Many solar installers are also energy auditors with their BPI Certification - this allows them to provide complementary services that can reduce a home's energy bill to almost zero!
What is BPI Certification?
Click here for more information on our BPI Certification Training courses
Before a home or business can go green by installing renewable energy sources such as solar, it is vital that the building be built or retrofitted to be as efficient as possible. The fundamentals taught in the BPI Certification courses goes far beyond conventional analyses - by executing an approach known as 'house-as-a-system,' anyone can perform comprehensive energy audits and implement proven strategies of demand reduction. These audits are focused on the residential sector, much like the LEED for Homes program that many are already familiar with. These courses also are a great complement to solar training, because once the home is efficient, the case for having a solar installation increases dramatically.
Who should become a LEED Green Associate?
Click here to learn about our LEED certification exam prep courses
It has been well documented that buildings contribute extensively to global energy and resource demand. Fortunately, the demand for energy and resource efficient, durable and healthy buildings is on the rise. Unlike conventional building design and construction curriculum, the LEED Green Associate courses take design considerations into the sustainability realm. Utilizing an approach called 'Integrated Building Design', similar to the 'House as a System Approach' of BPI, the LEED rating system generally focuses more towards the commercial side of sustainability. This means that the courses and training are extremely valuable to contractors, construction managers, solar installers, architects, and other professionals seeking to reduce wasted resources and work on green buildings seeking LEED Certification. Even non-construction occupations, such as lawyers, can benefit from LEED Green Associate courses by expanding their credentials and potential client base.

ELON — Rise when called on.
It's a mantra that echoes throughout the Elon University men's basketball team and Josh Bonney became the embodiment Thursday night in especially timely fashion.
With injuries and fouls thinning its backcourt, Elon turned to Bonney, the seldom-used, fifth-year senior, whose feel-good performance underscored the Phoenix's 73-59 thumping of Furman in the Southern Conference.
Bonney, supplying attacking energy and hustle off the bench, delivered 15 points — more than doubling his season output (he entered with a total of six points) — and produced a remix of years past, when the aspiring hip-hop artist once was Elon's point guard of the future.
So despite knee injuries that kept starting point guard Austin Hamilton and reserve guard Kevin Blake out of uniform, and foul trouble that rendered top-scoring guard Jack Isenbarger ineffective, the Phoenix (10-7 overall, 3-2 league) didn't miss a beat with Bonney running the show.
"I was able to really get into my flow," he said. "I had ample time to do what I think I'm good at, and I think it showed. And I was just proud to be able to help us get a win."
He was far from alone in that regard.
After the conclusion of his highest-scoring game in nearly three years — since February 2010, his sophomore season — a stream of well-wishers approached Bonney on the Alumni Gym court with congratulations.
The appreciation was as palpable in those greetings from fans as it was during certain moments of the victory, such as Elon coach Matt Matheny's big fist pump when Bonney drew a charge late in the first half and the "M-V-P! M-V-P!" chants from the student section after Bonney's press-breaking tear through the Paladins in the second half that he capped by floating in a bucket.
"I'm extremely happy for him. He played a heck of a game," Elon forward Lucas Troutman said.
"Absolutely, it was fun to pull for him," Matheny said. "Think about what he's been through. … He hasn't been rewarded with a lot of playing time; he started his first couple years; he played more last year than he's played this year. And he's been tremendous.
"He has accepted his role not only as a player, but his role in team chemistry. And now, it's time to play. He stepped up big."
Prior to Thursday night, Bonney had taken 12 shots from the field this season and missed 11 of them.
But by the 7:30 mark of the first half against Furman, Isenbarger, he of the 14.4 points per game average, was parked on the bench with two fouls while Bonney, pushing the tempo and injecting a spark, was 3-for-3 from the field.
"The message was step up when called upon and play aggressive," Bonney said. "Everybody was doing what they were coached to do. And that's what made it available for me to play well."
Troutman's efficient 18 points on 8-for-11 shooting from the field led Elon. Ryley Beaumont chipped in 10 points and nine rebounds as the Phoenix, playing its third game in six days, rolled in an almost routine manner.
Elon never trailed, built a 15-point lead by halftime and moved ahead by 25 less than five minutes into the second half while dropping Furman (4-12, 1-4) to 0-8 in road games this season.
A stretch that spanned the last 6½ minutes of the first half and opening 4½ minutes of the second half clinched it for the Phoenix, which ballooned its lead from 29-21 into irretrievable territory at 54-29.
"That was the difference in the game," Furman coach Jeff Jackson said. "I thought Elon played better than we did. It wasn't complicated. They played with a little bit more edge, a little bit more urgency."
Bobby Austin scored all of his 19 points in the second half and Colin Reddick had 18 points for Furman. They combined to hit 13 of Furman's 20 field goals. None of the other Paladins contributed more than five points.
Austin's and Reddick's scoring were separated by chunks of time. With Austin hampered by early foul problems — he had picked up three fouls less than 4½ minutes into the game — Reddick was responsible for 14 of Furman's first 23 points.
"For the better part of 40 minutes, I thought we played pretty well," Matheny said. "I liked our energy. I like our togetherness. And I felt like we kept an aggression for 40 minutes."
-- TIP-INS …:Bonney, the last of former coach Ernie Nestor's recruits remaining at Elon, started 26 games during his first two college seasons from 2008-10. This season he was averaging just 4.2 minutes per game entering Thursday night. "I'm a basketball player and every player wants to play," he said, "so those ambitions are, I think, very natural. But I understand how the rotation of the team works and whose role is what. And I've accepted that. And I was just happy I got my chance." … Elon's Ryan Winters, a sophomore, provided a career-best nine points. … Elon freshman Tanner Samson logged his second starting assignment of the season in Hamilton's absence. Samson hit two 3-pointers in the game's opening 2½ minutes and finished with nine points. … Hamilton and Blake, a pair of sophomores, were injured Monday night at Western Carolina. Matheny said Hamilton hurt his knee and twisted to the court after planting. "I'm very concerned about it," Matheny said, referring to Hamilton. "He's still being evaluated, but he's limping noticeably." … Bonney's music, popular on the college social scene, is worth a listen. Google him and check it out.

Let's be honest. How many of us really make it through an entire 12 month-period and actually reach the goals we set for ourselves for the new year?
You know the routine. Come the last week in December, we grab a pen and a piece of paper, ink down our resolutions for the upcoming new year and walk away confidently with our shoulders thrown back and chins lifted, determined that we will meet those goals if it's the last thing we do.
West PointŌĆÖs Secret Santa is calling it quits.
It is a most regretful decision for Darlene Cox, who has walked countless miles of West Point streets for the past eight years, collecting Christmas gifts for the needy children of this community.
Already documented is the fact that CoxŌĆÖs December 21, 2012 Secret Santa giveaway at Marshall Park turned to chaos, as gifts designated for three specific needy families were grabbed up by the unruly crowd.
The city of West Point issued a Boil-Water Alert Friday for customers who receive their drinking water from their water supply located in Clay County.
This affects approximately 40 customers on East Broad Street.
Water system officials notified the Mississippi State Department of Health of a pressure loss due to construction.
Hard work certainly does pay off as evidenced Thursday night by the Criminal Investigation Division of the West Point Police Department, which arrested one individual from Mississippi in connection to the recent bomb threats in the city.
After an intensive investigation by the WPPD, in cooperation with federal law enforcement agencies and several wireless service providers, police were able to nab a suspect, whose identity and place of incarceration is not being disclosed at this time.
Clay County District 4 Supervisor Shelton Deanes had one simple suggestion Thursday for the Clay County Board of Supervisors ŌĆō to plan financially right now for county improvements instead of waiting on money to come in before undertaking a project.
The pounding rain that poured all day Friday over Clay County made for hazardous traveling conditions and may have contributed to a two-vehicle accident on Highway 45 Alternate South that resulted in injuries.
The accident happened around 12:00 p.m. in front of the Mossy Oak Outlet and involved a 2004 red Kia Rio occupied by four people and a 2003 tan Honda Acura occupied by two people. According to the West Point Police Department, the Rio was traveling south on 45 and the Acura was making a left turn out of the Mossy Oak Outlet when the two vehicles collided.
Absentee ballots for the Senate District 16 Special Election arrived Thursday to the Clay County Circuit ClerkŌĆÖs Office, and absentee voting will open Wednesday and be open for the next two weeks.
Senate District16 absentee ballots, which will bear the names of Clay County candidates Kenny Fowler and Angela Turner-Lairy, have been reviewed, signed by the Clay County Election Commission and approved by the Mississippi Secretary of StateŌĆÖs Office.
Approximately 906 customers in Clay County are now under a boil water notice, according to the Mississippi State Department of Health.
The notice issued on Thursday morning warns customers under the Siloam Water Association No. 3-Beasley Well to boil their water before drinking.
A check valve malfunction produced a system-wide pressure loss.
Weather reports indicate that a low-pressure system will cause thunderstorms, some possibly severe, on Tuesday.
The National Weather Service is warning that the system will begin to move in the early-morning hours, with showers starting to fall at 8 a.m. on Tuesday.
By mid-afternoon, some of the storms may become severe throughout the state, although weather reports indicate that most of the severe weather will occure below Interstate 20.
However, Clay County residents need to be prepared for severe weather that may include tornados, hail or damaging winds.
When Kenny Fowler approached his wife Lavern of 45 years about the possibility of running for public office, he did not really know what to expect.
Fowler says his wife, a retired West Point school teacher, was immediately supportive, and after exploring the option for some time, Fowler has officially entered the race for the senate seat for District 16.
District 16 covers Clay County, as well as parts of Lowndes, Oktibbeha and Noxubee Counties.

Friday truly was Senior Night at Havelock High School, as Ram upperclassmen turned in big play after big play in a 57-0 Coastal 3A Conference victory over Swansboro.
Senior running backs Derrell Scott and Taylor Woods tallied scores, and senior twins Jordan and Julian Cuthbertson each recovered a fumble. Junior Matthew Boykin scored three touchdowns.
Havelock coach Jim Bob Bryant said he got choked up when he brought up his seniors to the front of the locker room before the game.
"Every one of them that dressed out tonight started and played key roles in the game," Bryant said. "It's a great group of seniors, and we're really going to miss them not only as players, but also as people and leaders of our football team."
And it was senior Julian Cuthbertson who got the top-ranked Rams (8-0, 3-0) going early, recovering a fumble when Swansboro (5-3, 1-2) tried a hook-and-ladder trick play on its first offensive play.
"I saw him catch the ball, and he tried to pitch it, so I just hit him before he could pitch it and the ball landed on the ground," Julian Cuthbertson said. "I noticed it and just jumped on it."
The fumble recovery helped set up Travis Sabdo's 31-yard touchdown pass to Kyran Bowman for Havelock's opening score just 1:37 into the game.
Boykin returned a Swansboro punt 51 yards for a touchdown, and Joey Godette then tackled Swansboro's Deandre Thompkins in the end zone for a safety, giving Havelock a 15-0 lead. After the free kick, Sabdo threw 10 yards to Boykin for a 22-0 Havelock lead after the first quarter. Sabdo was 11 of 19 for 162 yards and three TDs.
"I thought we played really well, offense, defense and special teams," Bryant said. "We scored in all three phases again. Defense got a safety, we had a punt return for a touchdown and scored on offense. Anytime you get a special teams touchdown and defensive points, that's usually pretty good."
Jordan Cuthbertson recovered his fumble in the second quarter, setting up Derrell Scott's 14-yard touchdown run.
"The receiver ran an out route and caught it," he said. "I tried to come in and make the hit. I wrapped the guy up, and I thought the play was over, and I turned around and saw the ball laying there spinning, and I just jumped on it before it went out of bounds."
Woods added a 3-yard TD run as Havelock led 36-0 at halftime.
"That's a back-to-back state championship team for a reason," Swansboro coach Tim Laspada said. "They're a great coaching staff over there, probably one of the better ones in the state, and Coach Bryant has them going good, and I wish them the best."
In the third quarter, Sabdo threw 19 yards to Boykin for a score, and Taron Wallace and Montrece Gatling added rushing touchdowns, providing the final margin in Havelock's 22nd consecutive victory.
Scott led the Rams with 194 yards rushing on 18 carries, part of Havelock's 374 rushing yards. Boykin caught six passes for 63 yards.
Havelock's defense surrendered just 26 total yards and three first downs in posting its fourth shutout of the season.
Bryant gave credit to his players and assistant coaches.
"My assistant coaching staff does a great job," Bryant said. "I've got the best assistant coaching staff in the state. Offensive assistants, defensive assistants — those guys come to work every week, put in long hours with little pay, but I've got a great staff and they do a great job getting our players ready to play each week."
For Havelock's seniors, it was their 50th victory on an emotional night.
"I'm just happy for our seniors," Bryant said. "I've got a good group of seniors, good leaders, and all of them are great kids. I made sure I told them in the locker room that I've never had a call from a teacher about any of those guys cutting up in class. I've never had to worry about their grades. I've never had to worry about them getting in trouble in school. They're just a real good core group of seniors, and we're going to miss them."
Havelock is scheduled to play White Oak at 7 p.m. Friday in Jacksonville.
Swansboro 0 0 0 0 —0
Havelock 22 14 21 0 —57

I find it amazing that two scents so similar can also be so different. I have the two as well, and find they suit different needs/moods.
I will always be partial to the original though
I have both and am torn between the two... I think I give the edge to the original but have had quite a few compliments when wearing Modern Reserve. What do you guys think?
I find it amazing that two scents so similar can also be so different. I have the two as well, and find they suit different needs/moods.
I will always be partial to the original though
ointments and perfume delight the heart....
They are both solid but I find the original to be the more distinctive of the two, and love to sniff it from time to time even if I find it a little challenging to wear on a casual basis.
I'd go for the original anytime.
Modern Reserve is far better and more refined imo. It has a more sophisticated drydown and it's sillage it's slightly toned down but the longevity is still there. An improvement in my eyes
-Modern Reserve imo.
I never liked any of the POLO's till I discovered modern reserve! so yeah, modern reserve all the way.
The original Polo wins hands down in my book. Polo Modern Reserve is a pale shadow of the original and a major disappointment.

Modern Reserve is the best frag RL has released since the original. Reserve can easily be worn in warmer temps whereas the original is a fall/winter scent. Also, I'm kind of surprised that Reserve hasn't fared better in the marketplace given the popularity of the original.
"I exist for myself, and for those to whom my unquenchable thirst for freedom gives everything, but also for everyone, since insofar as I am able to love - I love everyone. Of noble hearts, I am the noblest - and the most generous of those that yearn to give love in return. - I am a human being, I love death and I love life."

My classics: Dior Homme EdT, YSL Rive Gauche PH, Helmut Lang Cuiron, L'Occitane Neroli (vintage), Davidoff Zino, L'Occitane Eau des Baux
I prefer Modern Reserve because the tobacco note in the original always smelled weird on me. A body chemistry issue I guess.
both are great, difficult to match the original one but with modern reserve they did a fantastic job. I love them both. Modern reserve more versatile though
Hmm..choosing which will stand first among equals. Gotta go with the original Polo in that light.

I have both and prefer Modern reserve.
looking at this thread (and every other thread on basenotes for that matter) makes you think how subjective this hobby is! Amazing!

Polo Green reeks. Modern Reserve is much better.
Hands down Modern Reserve. The original Polo is outdated to me with the initial blast being just too much and bringing back memories of every middle school kid who wore too much of it. Modern Reserve can be worn anytime and is still distinctive and refined.
"As you walk down the fairway of life you must smell the roses, for you only get to play one round."
--Ben Hogan
My problem with the original has nothing to do with the scent itself, and everything to do with scent memory. It powerfully hearkens back to a time that in my life that was wonderful, but does not need to be relived!
Last edited by mrclmind; 12th February 2010 at 02:45 PM.
I own both, but Modern Reserve is far more faceted and endearing than the original. However, Polo Green remains a portal to simpler and happier days
Both are great, but the original is special to Me
I love the original Polo. The Modern Reserve is good, but smells to me almost exactly like the discontinued Polo Crest. MR is more refined, less potent, and has a lot less patchouli in it than the original. One of the reasons I love the first Polo is because the patchouli smells so prominent to me, especially as the scent evolves with time. MR is good, but doesn't satisfy me like the original.
I've got both of them, but original is little bit outdated. Modern Reserve is a winner. Veeeery sexy and modern scent. My best scent I ever had...
Polo Original me too.
Original is the best by a large margain to me
Not a fan of either.
Now that some time has passed, and I have owned each multiple times, I can honestly say I no longer care for either of them. Tastes change over time. If pressed, I would pick Modern Reserve. But really I don't care for either.
The original Polo was the first serious scent I ever owned. While I enjoyed it at the time, and have a lot of fond memories of it, it just doesn't appeal to me today. MR to me seems like a nice compromise between the original and something a bit more contemporary. However, much like the original, this type of scent doesn't work for me anymore.
Polo Green has no appeal to me either.....Modern Reserve is the better between these 2 for me.....If I could have my way I would have Polo Crest relaunched and that would be Great!!!
It's been years since I tried the original, but I remember loving it back in the day. Have MR and like it a lot, will have to try Original again but I guess that's probably been messed with since............
I 'discovered' MR last year and was immediately bowled over by it. I loved it. However, I've since cooled somewhat. I still like it, not sure it's still love though!
The original Polo is great!
Modern Reserve is great. A 20 something year old can wear it without worry of smelling like an "old man".
"I am a robot and I like cheese"
Top 5:
1. Axe Kilo
2. Lectric Shave
3. Vicks Vapor Rub
4. Febreze Pour Homme
5. Preferred Stock
Sprayed these both on while Christmas shopping at the mall. I'd say the original wins hands down. I agree with an earlier post that Modern reserve seems faceless.
1) Creed Aventus
2) TM Pure Malt
3) Le Labo Santal 33
4) Burberry London
5) Creed Millesime Imperial
6) Le Labo Poivre 23
7) TM Pure Havane
8) Creed Green Irish Tweed
9) Hermes Terre D' Hermes
10) Gucci Pour Homme
Enjoy them both. The original more but mainly in my spare time, MR makes for a better work scent, pleasant and calming, exactly what the doctor ordered to help with a little nap at work.
I enjoy them both, but I prefer the original.
The original, NOT a subsequent reformulation, is an absolute classic. I have found NOTHING as distinct. No one wonders what you're wearing when you're rocking original Polo.
You're basically comparing Queen with Freddie Mercury to Queen with Paul Rodgers.
Modern Reserve is like reformulated Polo Green sprayed on Grandpa's tweed sport coat, and sealed into a bag with mothballs for 5 years.
My top ten, in no particular order:
Eau Des Baux
Hanae Mori HiM
Halston Man Amber
Mugler Pure Havane
24 Gold
L'eau Bleue D'issey Pour Homme
Kenzo Jungle Homme
Terre D'Hermes
...there is no better Polo than the original Polo...
I like it a lot. It lasts up to twelve hours on me and it's one of the few that I get compliments on.
The vintage Polo Green by far.Tried the modern reserve and it is the perfect example of how these regulations have changed perfume for the worse.
My current obsessions for now
Oud Wood , Noir de Noir , DHI , Mugler Cologne , Bond No.9 Bleeker St. ,
Ramone Monegal Agar Musk & Umbra , Chanel Coromondel ,
I really want to try this Modern Reserve! I guess it's been discontinued?

Happy holidays, everyone. When my kids were little, they coined "MerryHappyChristmaChannaKwanzika."
They said, "All these holidays celebrate bringing light into the darkness." Not bad for a couple of little kids. So let's take it a step further and shine some bright light on your business. We are fast approaching the end of 2012 and business owners all over the U.S. are in the midst of doing their 2013 budgets. If you have not started yours yet, I think I know what you'll be doing this weekend.
To understand where we are going, we need to understand:
- Where we have been
-Where we need to go
Specifically, where do you need to go in the following areas?
Revenue. What does your sales number look like right now, projected to the end of 2012?
Profit. How much money do you need to keep for yourself?
Team. How big is your team going to get so that you can work less?
Time. How many hours per week are you willing to do (and what will you do with your free time)?
As an example, I'll use revenue but the same process applies to all four categories. These are the questions to ask yourself:
What will the revenue end up being for 2012?
What do I need the total revenue to be for 2013?
Once you have your revenue for 2013 finalized, where do you need to be quarter by quarter to ensure you are on track?
If you were a $500,000 business in 2012 and you need to be a $1,000,000 business in 2013, chances are the revenue in the first quarter will not magically go from $125,000 (your 2012 quarterly run rate) to $250,000 in the very next quarter just because New Years Eve occurred. Instead, it will be lower than $250,000 and the revenue in the fourth quarter will be higher than $250,000 as your business grows through the year. You need to plan for this type of revenue growth and ensure you have the cash flow reserves in place to fuel the growth. Remember, cash is like oxygen for a business.
There is a difference between "want" and "need." Folks are not typically committed to a "want." Success is there for you in 2013. You need to develop your plan and then keep score to ensure you are on track to reach new heights!
Action tip of the day: Cash flow
Cash is the oxygen for your small business. It needs it to survive. Three tips on managing your cash to implement in 2013: Prepare a cash-flow forecast — actually plan the oxygen for your business. Secure a line of credit when you don't need it. When you need credit, it is hard to come by. When you don't, it's easy. Review terms with suppliers and customers. No need to be a bank for your customers and pay early to your suppliers. Understand your cash gap and continue to reduce it.
A cash crunch is why many businesses fail. Make sure you are not one of them in 2013. Take action on this today and then go run a lap. Business is fun!
