| A special report by the Village editors, entitled The Unseen will be available tomorrow!

| Yesterday, the Village editors decided that a major change was necessary if the Village was to survive. Poor scheduling by the guidance office at UMHS has overloaded most seniors with AP and college-level courses this semester. Therefore, publishing the December issue of the Village will be impossible. We have decided to post online, at regular intervals, those sections which have been completed. Check back later tonight or tomorrow for the first section. | |

| Regular visitors will have noticed several changes to the Village site. To begin, we modified the color scheme of the site to be festive for the holidays. Second, many of the older pages that were causing performance issues have been removed. | |
|
November 15, 2000 (Wednesday) - 8:28PM |
| As you are probably aware, the November issue of the Village was forced into cancellation by the editors being forced to read a novel commonly referred to as Moby Dick. Needless to say, comprehending this work took almost all available time for three weeks, and the Village is just now recovering from it. Look for the Holiday Bonus issue to be arriving at your home in two weeks. | |

| We would like to notify our readers that the September issue of the Village has been canceled due to a lack of time for our editors. Simply put, every minute of spare time has been devoured by 6-7 hours of homework a night. Thank you for your understanding, and we hope to be hearing from you when the October issue is published! | |

| Yes, you read the above right. After days of brainstorming and searching for a way to reduce subscription costs and increase our readership, we came across a website that solves all those problems and more. In exchange for signing up, this site will give us $5, and give you an additional $5, thus covering the subscription costs! We are still in the process of integrating this service into our website, so we can't tell you how just yet. Check back later in the week to sign up for a full year of paper issues FREE of charge! | |

After 7 hours of exhausting work, the editors at the Village have completely revamped the entire Village website. Take a look around - because every single page was changed in some way, everything's new. Here's some of the highlights, however: As you can see, we spent the entire day finishing the site. Hopefully, now it is the resource that everyone in the Village community has come to expect and will help you keep in touch with your interests! |

help us, please email us below. In related news, the June issue of the
Village now consists of 56 pages, and will be distributed this

| During the next week, the editors of the Village will be taking a brief vacation from updating the Village and its webpages. Almost all of the sections are now online except for the ones you will find with no links on the left side. These sections use CGI scripts to achieve their functions, and we have not been able to get them to work. If you know CGI programming, please email us if you can help. If you would like to sign up for our mailing list, subscribe, or submit comments, you can do so by E-Mailing us. We hope to return at the start of next month's Village publication, on Tuesday, April 25. Thank you for your understanding. | |

| The second update to our webpages is now online. Though there are still many broken links and incomplete CGI scripts, about 70% of the site is now operational. | |

|
April 10, 2000 (Monday) - 3:18PM |
| We have been forced to delay the official opening of our site a few days due to unforseen problems in getting our CGI scripts working. We hope to have the pages completed before the end of the week. |
