Church Hymns And Beer
It might not seem that singing church hymns and drinking a cold one should go hand in hand. And normally….they don't. But many congregations are doing what they have to do to entice new members, even if it includes non-traditional ideas such as singing hymns and drinking beer. Believe it or not, this concept is becoming more popular.
Supported by the First United Methodist Church in Fargo, North Dakota, a small church called The Gathering, invites parishioners to join in and sing their praises with beers in hand. Congregants of The Gathering meet in local bars once a month, drink beer, sing traditional church songs, socialize and praise God.
Taking the idea from a church in Denver, Colorado, Methodist Reverend and Pastor of The Gathering, Cody Schuler, feels that meeting over a couple beers is more like what a church should be doing. And that is getting to know someone and the community.
Every time I come away having gotten to know somebody better than I did before, whether it's a new person or somebody I've known for a long time. So it really is a matter of it's what church is really about and that's community.
Schuler has been a pastor for 12 years and has served in faith at several churches. But by leading those that attend The Gathering, Schuler wants to attract those that may have lost their faith and been turned off by church. Schuler says that he has found many people that have been hurt by church and simply want to do church differently and heal their faith.
Many people who attend the beer and hymns events sponsored by The Gathering, feel comfortable and enjoy singing songs of praise in a relaxed atmosphere. The hymns are traditional, but the setting is not, allowing the congregants to feel that their faith doesn't have to be confined to being inside a church. Because of this, Schuler believes in "doing church differently".

AML begins in immature myeloblasts and progresses very quickly. It may also be the end state of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML).
Cancer occurs when cells in the body become abnormal. They divide without control or order. Leukemia is cancer of the white blood cells and their parent cells. Leukemia cells do not function normally. They cannot do what normal blood cells do. In this case, they can not fight infections. This means that the person is more likely to become infected with viruses or bacteria. The cancerous cells also overgrow the bone marrow. This forces other normal components, like platelets out. Platelets are needed to help the blood clot. As a result, people with leukemia may bleed more easily.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
The cause of AML is unknown. However,
after age 60 doubles the risk of this condition.
Risk factors that increase your chance of developing AML include:
These symptoms may also be caused by other, less serious health conditions. See a doctor if you have any of the following:
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done, paying particular attention to swelling of the liver and spleen. The doctor will also look for swelling in lymph nodes in the armpits, groin, or neck. You will likely be referred to an oncologist. This is a doctor who focuses on treating cancer.
After AML is identified, it can be classified as one of eight subtypes. These subtypes are based on the type of cell from which leukemia developed. Classification is important. It can help make a prognosis and design a treatment plan.
Treatment options include:
is the use of drugs to kill cancer cells. It may be given in many forms. This includes pill, injection, and via a catheter. The drugs enter the bloodstream and travel through the body. While this will focus on cancer cells, some healthy cells are also killed.
Some AML may spread to the brain and spinal cord. In this case,
intrathecal chemotherapy may be used. Chemotherapy drugs are placed directly into the spinal column.
Radiation therapy
involves the use of radiation to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. For AML, external radiation therapy is used.
The radiation is directed at the tumor from outside the body. This type of treatment is used for AML that has spread, or may spread, to the brain and spinal cord. It can also be used to treat bone pain that comes from bone affected by the leukemia.
Chemotherapy is followed by a transplantation of stem cells (immature blood cells). These will replace blood-forming cells destroyed by cancer treatment. Stem cells are removed from the blood or bone marrow of the patient or a donor. They are then infused into the patient.
This therapy uses antibodies made in a lab. The antibodies help to identify substances on cancer cells or on normal cells that may help cancer grow. The antibodies attach to these substances. This kills the cancer cells, blocking their growth, or preventing them from spreading.
Biologic therapy uses medications or substances made by the body. The substance is used to increase or restore the body's natural defenses against cancer. This type of therapy is also called biological response modifier therapy. It is still being tested in clinical trials.
Anemia may lead to fatigue. If severe, it can complicate respiratory or cardiac disease. Thrombocytopenia may lead to bleeding and bruising. Decreased numbers of white blood cells can leave a patient more vulnerable to infection.
Your doctor may prescribe a number of different treatments to decrease these side effects. Drugs are available to increase production of normal blood cells. In addition, when your counts are particularly low, blood transfusions or changes in daily activities may be needed. These steps will reduce the chance of fatigue, bleeding, or infection.
Many people who develop AML have no risk factors. There is no way to prevent the condition in most people. However, 20% of cases are related to smoking tobacco. Not smoking is the best known way to prevent AML.

See and share Beautiful Nature Photos and amazing photos of interesting places
These Halloween Ballad poems are examples of Ballad poems about Halloween. These are the best examples of Halloween Ballad poems written by international PoetrySoup poets
I hollow the pumpkin, so small and white,
Then add the blooms I'd picked so carefully,
The palest of pink roses, buds still tight,
Forget-me-nots, baby's breath and sweetpea,
And just one, lonely, ivory lily.
This gourd is a vase for Halloween day,
One that I'll bring to the cemetery,
A gift for all children who've passed away.
No costumes they'll wear on their favorite night,
They'll not giggle and run, collecting candy,
But rosebuds might open in the starlight,
And from heaven's view, a tribute they'll see.
There in the vastness of nature's beauty,
Grieving elms lose their leaves while squirrels play,
And I'm sorrowed by what I now carry,
A gift for all children who've passed away.
The Crossings* glows with soft afternoon light,
I hear cardinals sing from distant trees,
There on the path, a gazebo invites,
It nestles by the wetlands, tranquilly,
Yet down my cheeks, buried tears flow freely,
I feel my loss like it was yesterday,
Darling, unborn, here's a token from me,
A gift for all children who've passed away.
Forever I'll miss my sweet absentee,
So I gently touch the little bouquet,
And pray as I place the gourd by bent knee,
A gift for all children who've passed away.
*The Crossings is a memorial for children in Kitchener, Ontario which features a boardwalk and gazebo in a peaceful, natural setting. There is an annual butterfly release for bereaved families. For a photo of the lovely gazebo:
For Carol Brown's "What No Orange Pumpkin" Contest
Before building the fire
We dug out a lawn square
To keep the ash we knew would be there
And stacked the sods near the pyre.
The lawn fits back well –
No ghost of last year's flame.
Each Halloween it's the same –
There is no grave hole to tell.
Papers, cardboard, gasoline, - oh !
The hissing from a heap
Of slippery wet leaves
Like a snake's last scream.
Swarms of sparks stream
In hot gas gusts to the eaves,
Burning out as they leap,
Falling as warm grey dust.
Soot flakes like scattered crows
Fly skyward, black and ragged
From damp dead wood's jagged
Heat - soaked spars' and oars'
Life-after-life in a final burst.
Each deadened ember
Sends a second soul
To the lifeless hole
With a final life to remember.
Silver moonbeams shine from the full moon
On a Halloween night.
Trick or treaters weave back and forth collecting candy
And other assorted goodies on this
Beautiful Halloween night.
Scary stories are told around a fireplace.
A witch flies on a broom across the moon cackling
On this beautiful Halloween night.
A midnight breeze blows through the trees
On this beautiful Halloween night.
A vampire lurks in the shadows looking for prey
On this beautiful Halloween night.
Feys and faeries dance across the silver moonbeams
on this beautiful Halloween night

The Minnesota Timberwolves will not pick up a team option on president of basketball operations David Kahn and are expected to replace him with former coach Flip Saunders, The Associated Press reports. Yahoo! Sports' Adrian Wojnarowski also reported that the team has already fired Kahn. The team later confirmed that Kahn is out.
NBA.com's Steve Aschburner reported six days ago that Minnesota was likely to move in this direction. Kahn leaves the team after four seasons and an 89-223 record.
Under Kahn's leadership, the Timberwolves fired coach Kurt Rambis and hired current coach Rick Adelman, But Kahn's reign has mostly come under heavy scrutiny. He drafted point guard Jonny Flynn -- who is now out of the NBA -- a pick behind Rubio at No. 6, chose Wesley Johnson No. 4 overall and had signees such as Michael Beasley and Darko Milicic sputter out. As a team, the Timberwolves have missed the playoffs five straight seasons.
On the positive end Kahn was responsible for the drafting of point guard Ricky Rubio and the signing of Nikola Pekovic, who was originally drafted under previous front office executive Kevin McHale. Kahn also had decent signings such as Andrei Kirilenko and the still-to-be-judged No. 2 overall draft selection of Derrick Williams.
The T-Wolves and owner Glen Taylor have been in talks with Saunders the last few weeks, according to Aschburner. Including options, his contract is expected to go through the 2017-18 season and could be worth upwards of $9 million in total

I've progressed a lot since I last visited these pages, but now I've run into a problem I'm unable to fix. When I post a value and start a (somewhat complex) query from the pages I wrote, I get a "Web: Connection time-out!" error.
A look at PAMP shows that the httpd was 'terminated'. But when I look at the error-log, all I see are these messages:
[notice] Digest: generating secret for digest authentication ...
[notice] Digest: done
[notice] MaxSpareThreads of 1 exceeds or is equal to ThreadLimit of 1, reset to 0.
[notice] MinSpareThreads of 1 exceeds MaxSpareThreads of 0, reset to 0.
I've tried all combinations that seemed to make sense and some that didn't:
- Increasing the threadlimit doesn't work, since Py and PHP don't support it yet, according to the error log.
- Setting the MaxSpareThreads to 1 and the MinSpareThreads to 0, or 1 and 1 respectively or 0 and 0 respectively doesn't work, the error messages change accordingly, but it comes down to the server resetting them both back to 0, since MaxSpareThreads is greater than or equal to ThreadLimit and Min SpareThreads is greater than or equal to MaxSpareThreads.
Requesting other pages, that run simpler queries on the same database, yields no problems. What about my situation could be causing the termination? Does it have to do with the threads at all and is there some settings I'm overlooking? Or does it have something to do with trying to process a POSTed form somehow?
(edit) I've tried to set my local install of Apache to the settings used by the PAMP one, but it chokes on the MaxSpareThreads and MinSpareThreads for other reasons, which I presume have to do with the ton of mods it is loading.
The application works flawlessly on my PC installation of Apache, MySQL and PHP and on the online version, so I'm at a loss...
(edit) For reference: the same page on an online location: http://www.grismar.net/seekwell
Any help appreciated, greetings,

I believe I had an infected bottle. I will keep this review/score here until I am able to snag another helping of this brew upon which I will re-rate if it turns out it really was infected. I'm hoping so - because this beer sounds great in theory, but the bottle I had was pretty vile.
Pours dark as hell with a deep tan, ruby red hued head with wonderful staying power. Easy to conjure back by swirling the glass a little bit, too. The initial aroma doesn't really remind me of cherries - I'm picking up more of a woody-nutty smell, some bitter coffee, and strange caramel notes. I say "strange" because I'm still not sure if it's caramel I'm tasting - some kind of malty flavor I can't exactly describe.
The taste is even more strange than the smell. The biggest thing I'm getting up front is a weird smoked meat flavor. Yes, smoked meat. The first second of the sip hints at a smoked porter, with the meaty flavor and the burnt wood chips in the back. Then, right in front of your palate, the beer turns into an almost sickeningly sweet concoction of blackberry, black cherry juice, and prunes. For just a SPLIT second, I pick up a slight hint that reminds me of A1 steak sauce. The wood chip taste is heavy in the end as well, with some earthy notes. The final notes are kind of musty, and a weird combination of sweet and bitter than isn't very desirable. Medium body, silky smooth, and a nice amount of carbonation.
I always commend Short's for their prowess and willingness to try different things. Unfortunately this porter missed the mark just a bit. I didn't really get much black cherry at all, and the combination of sweetness and smokiness was kind of upsetting. It was tough to choke down the whole bottle, I probably won't be having this one again.

Reviewed from notes made on 10/27/10.
A: The color is dark black and impenetrable to my eye with a dark mocha head that I swear has a tinge of dark red, ala a black cherry. This head is impressive in size at one and a half fingers and retains well. The lacing is gorgeous and reminds me of the cloudscape on this windy Northern Michigan day.
S: Roasted dark malts are the biggest aroma and mingle with with dark cherry smell kindly. Behind those scents are a slightly bitter dark chocolate smell, a definite coffee presence, and also some bitter hop aromas.
T: The tartness of the cherry puree and the bitterness of the hops play on the sides of my palate at first, then the roasted malt, slight chocolate, and coffee do their dance on my tongue. The sweet, tart cherry and the roasted porter backbone blend fairly well, but I think I would like the flavor balance to tilt more in favor of the straight porter taste.
M: If I had any complaint, it would be that the cherry presence makes the feel a little too bright and stinging for a porter. The beer is decently coating on my palate, though, and resides on the lighter side of medium-bodied.
D: This is a very interesting take on a porter, and well worth a try. I will certainly have more of this brew over time. The tartness of the cherry adversely affects the sessionability of the beer a little bit, though. This is one of those beers that I swear I have enjoyed better on draft than I have out of the bottle. Maybe I'll review the draft pull the next time that I am at Shorts.

A_Pors almost black with dark red hue. Thick dark reddish brown head with great retention. Lacing coats the glass.
S_Rich dark chocolate malt and black cherry. Not picking up much booze.
T_Perfect blend of dark chocolate and black cherry. The cherry is bittersweet and not over done. Hints of vanilla and espresso.
M_Full bodied though a little thinner than one might expect. Slick on the palate.
D_For the ABV this is very drinkable. Very well done.

Notes from 1/31/11
A - Pours black with three fingers of deep brown head. Head has great retention.
S - Aroma is chocolate, slightly tart cherries and earthy roasted malts. Smells delicious.
T - Wow! Great blend of chocolate and coffee with cherry flavor filling in the periphery instead of playing a dominant role. Cherry element is slightly tart and not sweet. The tartness is more noticeable on the finish, but is still pretty subtle and desirable.
M - Perfect medium mouthfeel coats the palate nicely.
O - Definitely my favorite Short's offering and one of the better beers I've ever had.
Note: the review is for a pretty fresh bottle. I ending up buying a case of this altogether, and when I got to the last few bottles in March, infection was definitely setting in. Hopefully that will get resolved by the next release, as this is a fantastic beer.

Got this as an extra in a trade shared with my wife.
This beer is black with fluffy tan head. The head is thick and creamy and laces well.
The nose is sweet definitely a porter almost like a porter that got a little infected not in a bad way. Has a almost vanilla nose in the end.
The taste is a thick creamy porter to start sweet . The cherry tart flavor comes in and lingers. The flavor is isn't artificial . The carbonation is big but never harsh well rounded a good beer to try but I couldn't have it every day no could I finish it.
My wife liked it better then I

Thanks to Exiled for sharing this bottle.
The beer pours a dark brown color with a tan head. The aroma is roasted malts and chocolate-covered cherries. The flavor is more of the same with cherries, roasted malt, chocolate and a little bit of smoke. The beer tastes and smells exactly like you would expect a beer named Black Cherry Porter to taste. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.
A very good beer and proof that Short's can really make some good beers when they don't have infection problems.

A - Pours a very dark, almost black purple. Kind of a plum color. Thin brown fizzy head that dissipates quickly leaving a small ringlet and little to moderate lacing.
S - Smells more like an oatmeal stout or something, nutty malts, and sour-sweet hints of cherry.
T - I usually expect wacky, overbearing flavors from Short's because it's kind of their thing. But this is a surprisingly balanced porter, with only some hints of cherry on the tip of the toungue and in the finish. Nice and sweet without throwing the balance off.
M - Dry, kind of buttery finish, and moderate carbonation.
O - It could have had a bit more going on with the cherry flavor and I wouldn't have minded, but it was still a pretty good offering from Short's, and it didn't disappoint.

Bottle poured into a FFF tulip
A - Dark brown with a slight ruby tint. Two finger mocha colored head that leaves nice lacing down the glass
S - Reminds me of cherry chip ice cream as I get chocolate, vanilla, and sweet cherry. Big sweet nose, especially for a porter
T - Up front there is sweet vanilla with a hint of tart cherry. In the middle, I get roasted malts and dark chocolate. The finish is smokey, roasted malt and dark, bitter chocolate. A little sweeter than a normal porter and the cherry adds a nice fruitiness to the normal smokey porter style
MF - Light body with low carbonation. A little watery. The finish is slightly astringent and smokey as the roasted malt lingers on the tongue.
O - A nice twist on a porter as the cherry flavors make this is a bit sweeter and tarter than normal. It helps that this is a solid porter even without the cherry so adding it in adds another layer of complexity instead of being a gimmick. The nose is definitely a highlight of the beer as that is where the cherry and vanilla really make themselves known.

Many thanks to kzoobrew for the chance to taste this one. Poured from bottle into DFH snifter. Pours a deep dark, syrupy looking color. Dark tan head, tight bubbles, decent lacing on the glass. leaves a solid tan top after receding. Looks amazing- an appearance of a serious porter here. Smell- definitely getting the dark cherries, and a whiff of cocoa- noting that the cherry smells "real" vs some sort of cherry syrup. Taste- nice silky smooth chocolate and cherry flavors on the end. A little bit of roasted bitterness up front as well. Wow. This is one hell of an amazing beer. For 7%, I get no booze at all, this is just a really balanced beer. I'm super impressed with the use of the cherry flavors here. I'm contrasting this against the stone cherry chocolate stout...this is a superior beer- perfect use of the flavors.

12oz bottle purchased from the brewery a couple months ago. served in a small tulip glass.
A - pours with about a third inch of creamy, khaki colored foam. settles to a thin film and ring, leaving a thin layer of consistent lacing around the glass. the beer is dark, even for a porter...letting in just a tad bit of dark ruby around the sides of the glass.
S - slightly roasted malts, toasted nuts, just a touch of licorice and milk chocolate...black cherries are present but take some effort to pull out.
T - begins as it should as a solid porter, roasted but not charred malts alongside of chocolate, and toasted nuts. sweetness creeps in during the second half, as a delicate layer of fresh cherry juice comes alive and adds a subtle bit of tartness to the end.
M - medium bodied with solid yet controlled, tight fizzy carbonation. creamy where it should be, and coats the mouth through the swallow. fruity tartness somewhat wipes things clean at the end.
D - what we have here is a solid American porter, taken to the next level by the addition of a well amount of cherries to compliment and not overwhelm. one of my favorite Short's beers.

A: crimson, brown and deep purple hues flow from the bottle into my tumbler. The body is deep and heavy looking, nearly convinced I was pouring a stout. The head is weighty and caramel coffee in color. Speckled lacing is most appealing and running rampant. This is looking promising
S: shortly after opening the bottle the smell of tart cherries was in the air, wowzers. Continued smelling brought about heavily roasted malts, some cocoa, and even more cherries. This is a nice assembly of smells for a porter. It maintains a large and deep malt base with a mild mannered sweetness in the mix
T: this is amazing. Delicious and ginormous roasted malts (close to being charred) lock in the bottom end. Then, going back and forth, is a harmonious interplay of tart and sweet cherries. This amalgamation of flavors, in of itself, is near perfect. Continued sips unlock mingling soft cocoa, heavy cream, and some coffee notes. I find that the tail end of each sip is laden with a few crushed dark roasted coffee beans. This is without a doubt one of the best porters to date. I am not huge into sour or tart porters and stouts. But when done right, they can be to die for and this one is
M: silky and velvet-like on the tongue. Considering the 9.0% ABV it is nearly impossible to detect, even as thing warm up. Speaking of warming, the flavors are out of this world
D: as of right now, this is one of my personal favorites from Short's. No doubts. Dark beer drinkers need to get a hold of this one

Pours a thick pitch black with a small off white tannish head that settles to a thin cap. Rather dark for a porter. Smell is more stout like then porter- lots of roasted malts, bitter chocolate, olive brine, some cherries. Taste is similar and a bit off. Starts with roasted malts, very bitter slightly burnt malt flavor, smokey chocolate, slightly metallic, some dark cherries in the finish. Mouthfeel is medium bodied and medium light carbonation. Not a bad beer, but falls out of line with American Porters. More like a cherry American Stout then anything else.

This works! Pours very dark brown near black, with a dusting of a white head. The fresh cherry aroma emmenates from the glass and is enticing. Above average mouthfeel contains a marriage of roasted malt, rich malt including chocolate malt, and black cherry flavour that is right there. Great drinkability.

Poured from a 12oz. bottle into a Sam Adams perfect pint.
A: Pours a nearly flat .5 finger coarse, dark mocha head with a reddish tint and little retention. Beer is an opaque black. More like an imperial porter than its little brother. Lacing is pretty. Stringy and with a nice spotty pattern underneath. Decent cling too.
S: Nose is liquorice, coffee, dark chocolate, and roasted malt bitterness. No cherry aroma is really detectable but regardless, spot on considering the style. Nothing outrageous but solid.
T: Opens liquorice, dark chocolate, and roasted malt bitterness. Cherry sweet and tartness lingers quietly in the background but its detectable towards the middle. Coffee beans and more liquorice at the finish adds more of a touch of tartness. Ends accented coffee. Cherry juice mixed with bitter chocolate and cocoa powder in the finish.
M: Medium bodied and lightly carbonated. Oily in the mouth with a slight abrasiveness at the edges from the bubbles. Finish is accented and messy and aftertaste lingers.
D: A solid beer from Shorts but a general failure in terms of what I believe they're trying to do. Cherry is barely present and is completely overpowered by the dominant porter flavors. A solid beer but nothing out of the ordinary.

12 oz bottle - dated 10/04/12
A-Pours a huge black color with almost a reddish hue to it. Foamy mahogany 2 finger head that leaves a reddish brown ring.
S-As with many of Short's beers this one does not fail to deliver on uniqueness. Smells of black licorice, roasty dark chocolate with a very up front cherry peel aroma with a subtle smoke aroma in the background.
T-A little smokey and nutty on the front with a burnt cherry flavor that slowly comes in.
M-This one has an odd finish. It almost feels like I am running my tongue across wood. The cherry incorporates itself well into the aroma and taste but gives an awkward body to the beer.
O-This was definitely interesting. I do not really care for cherry in stouts and porters but this one is alright. For what it is, it is pretty tasty but not really my thing. If you are a cherry stout/porter fan this will impress but to me it is just a bit gimmicky. I would have probably liked the cherry to be very noticeable but I kind of feel if there was any more added there may have been a medicinal character to the flavor.

TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now) – A mother and three children are out of their homes after a late night cooking fire on the Eastside.
It happened around 10:30 Thursday night in the 8600 block of East Old Spanish Trail, near Camino Seco and Broadway.The Tucson Fire Department says the mother was warming up some oil for cooking. She stepped away and the oil ignited. Her friend, who was also in the apartment, alerted her to the fire. That's when they all went outside. Once the children were out of the home, the mother went back in and used a fire extinguisher to put out the flames.
Upon arrival, fire crews noticed black smoke. Firefighters put out the remaining flames and had the fire under control in 13 minutes.
There were no injuries.
The family is going to stay with a friend.

Hi: 21° Lo:9°
By Ian Dipple Tuesday 18 February 2014 Updated: 21/02 09:50
CAMPAIGNERS claim they have been 'stabbed in the back' after losing the fight to prevent homes being built in Webheath.
Planning inspector Clive Kirkbride has allowed Taylor Wimpey and Barratt West Midlands' appeal against the refusal of plans to build 200 homes on land off Church Road, following a hearing at the Town Hall in January.
Redditch Borough Council's planning committee originally turned down the plans on the grounds of traffic, infrastructure and highways contributions. But just a month before the appeal was due to be heard, the council announced it would not offer any evidence after seeking legal advice indicating they would lose the appeal and land taxpayers with a bill of around £100,000 - the actual cost of preparing the appeal up until the point the council withdrew is £8,000.
It left members of Webheath Action Group to fight the appeal alone, supported by Redditch MP Karen Lumley and some councillors.
But Mr Kirkbride was unimpressed by their arguments. He said the principal of development had been established on the site since 1991 and the idea of its sustainability tested on three separate occasions. He added the council's draft Local Plan 4 earmarked the site for 500 to 600 homes.
Concerns about traffic were also dismissed as Mr Kirkbride said he had been offered no substantive evidence to back up the claims. He said there had only been one accident in which a person had been injured since 2008 at the Blackstitch Lane and Middlepiece Drive junction despite it being labelled an 'accident blackspot' - although WAG argued damage only accidents were not recorded.
He added developers were also paying more than £340,000 for road improvements in and near to Webheath, while the fact most services in the area were within 2km of the site and there was provision of a new bus service would help reduce reliance on cars.
Mr Kirkbride acknowledged the development would change the character of the area but it would not be harmful. Regarding claims the democratic process would be damaged if a decision by elected councillors was overturned, he said: "I acknowledge the Government may have raised expectations through its localism agenda that more decisions should and would be taken locally. However, the appeals process, including provision for local public inquiries, exists so evidence can be rigorously tested and, where found wanting, decisions based on it can be overturned."
David Rose, chairman of WAG, said the original reasons for refusing the application by the planning committee had been weak and the Government's new planning guidelines had made it too easy for developers to build on the countryside.
"Our politicians do not support their residents, or their own democratic decisions. Webheath residents have been stabbed in the back," he said.
Coun Robin Lunn, who represents Redditch North, said the Government's National Planning Policy Framework had heavily influenced the appeal decision, ignoring the wishes of the MP, county and district councillors and residents.
"This will further change the nature of Webheath, and is particularly sad when there are better sites nearby for these houses to go."
Coun Greg Chance, responsible for planning on the borough council, added: "While the outcome of the appeal was unfortunately to be expected, we all understand the strength of local feeling on the matter.
"A lot has been said about the decision to withdraw elements of the appeal defence. However when barristers and specialists conclude that a defence cannot be won because there is no evidence, the duty of the council to all its residents and the public purse is clear – and in this difficult situation our actions in that regard appear to have been vindicated."

AC360 Takes On Arkansas School Board Member Who Wants 'Fags' To 'Commit Suicide' And To 'Give Each Other AIDS And Die'
Anderson Cooper is really terrible when it comes to covering politics a lot of the time, but when it comes to issues like this and standing up for the rights of the LGBT community, I've got to give the man a lot of credit. It is completely unacceptable for a member of a school board anywhere to be acting this way and I'm glad Cooper decided to give it some national attention on CNN.
Here's more from Think Progress -- Arkansas School Board Member Wants 'Fags' To 'Commit Suicide' And To 'Give Each Other AIDS And Die' :
Last week, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) asked people to "Go Purple" to call attention to the suicides of six teenagers who were victims of homophobic bullying. In response, a myriad of high-profile figures "jumped at the opportunity" to voice their support as part of YouTube's "It Gets Better" campaign, including 40 Broadway actors, Google, Inc., Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and President Barack Obama. Yesterday, Obama's Secretary of Education Arne Duncan sent new official guidelines on school-bullying to 15,000 school districts and 5,000 colleges and universities as a message that "bullying is not acceptable" and could violate federal civil rights laws.
Despite a chorus of support, GLAAD's anti-bullying message is falling on deaf ears in Arkansas. Specifically, the ears of Arkansas District School board member Clint McCance. In response to GLAAD's appeal to wear purple, McCance, an elected member of the Midland school board, unleashed a tirade of anti-gay bigotry on his facebook page. In a series of posts, McCance actually encourages "fags" and "queers" to kill themselves and says that, if his kids were gay, he'd "run them off".
Cooper did a great job of pointing out that there are real faces and real children who have committed suicide because of this type of attitude and bullying. It's completely unacceptable that this man is still allowed to keep his job in the Arkansas school system after these revelations. This sort of hatred and bigotry should not be condoned and has real life and death consequences for children who are struggling with their own identities as Cooper pointed out.
Transcript from CNN below the fold.
COOPER: We begin, though, tonight, as we always do, "Keeping Them Honest," with an Arkansas public official whose response to the school bullying problem and the rash of suicides by gay kids is that he likes it when gay people die. He said that on his Facebook page. He likes it when gay people die.
Now, if these were just the comments of an everyday person, this wouldn't be news. No doubt plenty of people probably say stuff like that. But these comments were being made by a public official, and not just any official, a school official, elected to the school board in the Midland School District in Eastern Arkansas. In fact, he's the school district vice president.
As with any bully, we think it's important for you to see his face. This is the only picture we could get from his Facebook page. This is the face of the man who says he likes it when gay people die. We think you should know his name as well. It's Clint McCance, Clint McCance. This picture that we showed you is from Facebook. The man with power over kids in Arkansas public schools was apparently ticked off about a nationwide call by activists last Wednesday to wear the color purple in support of gay kids.
Here's some of what he wrote on his Facebook page. And I remind you the words are his, not ours, and the language is offensive.
"Seriously," he wrote, "they want me to wear purple because five queers committed suicide. The only way I'm wearing it is -- for them is if they all commit suicide. I can't believe the people of this world have gotten this stupid."
He goes on -- and what you see is his spelling not ours -- "We're honoring the fact that they sinned and killed themselves -- thereselves because of their sin. Really, people."
Mr. McCance apparently doesn't know or does not care to use the names of the five dead kids he's attacking and mocking. He simply calls them queers, fags.
But these kids do have names, and they have families, and they have friends who are still mourning their loss and will mourn for the rest of their lives. These kids have names. And you should know their names, and so should he.
Tyler Clementi, 19 years old, he jumped off a bridge after his college roommate allegedly streamed live images of him with another male onto the Internet.
Asher Brown, 13 years old, who put a gun to his head and pulled the trigger after what his parents said was years of bullying.
Seth Walsh, a 13-year-old California boy who hung himself after taunts and bullying.
Billy Lucas, a 15-year-old Indiana boy who also hung himself.
And 19-year-old Zach Harrington, who killed himself, it should be noted, after attending a city council meeting in his Oklahoma town where anti -- anti-gay comments were being made.
Now, these are not queers or fags, as Mr. McCance calls them. They are people. They are human beings. They're our fellow citizens.
And when Mr. McCance posted his rant on his Facebook page, half a dozen or so people actually pressed the like button. He also received some positive comments. But others did challenge him. And he responded to their challenges on the comments section with more words.
He said -- quote -- "It pisses me off, though, that we make special purple fag day for them. I like that fags can't procreate. I also enjoy the fact that they often give each other AIDS and die."
Then he wrote this: "I would disown my kids they were gay. They will not be welcome at my home or in my vicinity. I will absolutely run them off. Of course, my kids will know better. My kids will have solid Christian beliefs. See, it infects everyone."
Clint McCance has had more than a day now to apologize for these comments. He's had more than a day to cool down, to reflect and make some sort of public statement. He has said nothing. We have called him. He's not taking our calls.
Now, that often happens with bullies. When you challenge them, when you stand up to them, when you face their anger with rational thought and calm questions, they retreat. They run away. They show their own fear. Sometimes, they even hide behind their parents.
And that's what Clint McCance is doing tonight. His father, Ron, did speak to us on the phone. He told us -- quote -- "I don't know why he said it. All this caught everyone by surprise. He said it was his page, he pulled it, and he got caught up in the moment. This was out of character," Clint McCance's father claims. "I didn't read the blogs or nothing, but I don't know the context of who he was talking to or what led up to that heated moment."
Mr. McCance concluded, saying: "I do defend his right to say what he wants to, but we have all been blind sided. I'm so shocked."
Well, school officials in Arkansas said they are shocked as well. They put out numerous statements saying they don't support what the school official says or believes. They say it doesn't represent the attitudes or beliefs of school officials in this country or the state.
Well, let's hope that's true, for the sake of the kids, gay or not, in that community and in that state.
Joining us now, the man who blew the whistle on all this, Anthony Turner, a graduate of Midland High School who has written a letter to the school board complaining about Clint McCance, also Rosalind Wiseman, a bullying expert, author of "Queen Bees and Wannabes."
Anthony, first of all, did you know him when you went to this school?
ANTHONY TURNER, GRADUATE OF MIDLAND HIGH SCHOOL: Yes. Clint was a couple of years older than I am, a couple of years ahead of me in school. But I knew him. It's a small community, a small town.
So, everyone there pretty much knows everyone -- weren't not close or anything, and I haven't seen or talked to him in years. But I am acquainted with Mr. McCance.
COOPER: And what would -- what did you think when you saw this Facebook posting?
TURNER: Oh, I will tell you, oh, this is something that really struck home with me.
I have never really thought of myself as any kind of activist or anything, but, as I started seeing these Facebook posts from kids -- about kids who have committed suicide because they were bullied and taunted and ridiculed because they were gay, I mean, it -- it really struck home with me, because I have been there, and I have lived through that, actually in the same school district that these Facebook postings from Mr. McCance are coming from.
So, I know what it's like. And it's rough. And so I started posting on my Facebook, encouraging people to take part in the spirit day, to wear purple, to remember the lives of these -- these kids who tragically lost their lives...
COOPER: Yes.
TURNER: ... and to -- to stand up to bullying, stop bullying in schools.
And so, you know, it was really near and dear to my heart. And, then, to see his response to that, to see him say, you know, that the only way he would ever participate in such a day is if all queers -- I hate to say the word -- killed themselves, you know, it really struck home with me that -- that something needed to be done.
COOPER: And, I mean, Rosalind, to -- to -- people say this stuff probably online all the time. They hide behind the anonymity of it, but he put his name on it. And he's a school official.
I mean, you're an educator. You work with schools around the country to try to stop bullying. How do you work with a school when the people -- when the guy, at least one guy on the school board, the vice president, is saying this kind of stuff?
ROSALIND WISEMAN, AUTHOR, "QUEEN BEES AND WANNABES: HELPING YOUR DAUGHTER SURVIVE CLIQUES, GOSSIP, BOYFRIENDS, AND THE NEW REALITIES OF GIRL WORLD": Well, I think he reminds me of a kid in seventh grade who says the most obnoxious things, and everybody hates him, and he's just trying to get a reaction.
And -- but he's not in seventh grade. He's a school official. So, what -- you know, people are always -- there's going to always be someone like this.
I think what's really important here is that the people around him, the adults, the school officials, speak out and say, we cannot have this here. Treat him with dignity, but get him off of being responsible in any way for kids.
But the other thing I want to do is, I want to really have a callout to the people who have been talking about the, you know, bullying agendas and all of this. If we're going to have a problem with openly gay teachers, for example, I think we have to have a really big problem with mean, mean school officials, and that people like Focus on the Family or other organizations who are really focused on getting gay people out of the schools, that we have got to say, but you know what, it's not tolerable to have mean people in the schools. It's not tolerable to have mean teachers, because that's, frankly, worse.
What would you rather have? Would you rather have a mean, irresponsible person who is advocating for the suicide of kids, or do you want people who are just trying to be and live in dignity?
COOPER: Anthony, the school officials right now in Arkansas are saying: Look, we can't fire this guy. He's an elected official on to a school board, and there's really not much we can do.
Do you buy that?
TURNER: I will tell you, I'm a real -- really thankful for the It Gets Better campaign, where everybody, you know, from rock stars to the president of the United States has -- has posted online videos telling kids that it gets better, that it's not just high school, that things are better after.
But, you know, I think we really have a responsibility to make sure that it gets better now. Why should students have to wait until they graduate for things to be better?
You know, we need to do something. And if it's the case that -- that the laws are the way they are, the policies are the way they are, and nothing can be done in this particular instance, then that should serve as a wakeup call to -- to all of us that we need to really think about our public policy, and really think about, you know, a situation where hate like this, where -- where this horrible kind of conduct from a -- a board official could be tolerated, and nothing can be done about it.
COOPER: Rosalind, we have talked a lot about bullying over the last, well, years, frankly, on this program, but, you know, we talk about bullies being students. You don't think about bullies as being on the school board for years.
I mean, this isn't some guy who's just -- you know, it's been -- it's been a while he's on the school board. Do you believe that there's nothing that can be done to, you know, make him step down, or...
WISEMAN: I think there's a lot to be done. I think there's a lot to be done.
And, then, this is also about the civic contract that somebody has with -- with the community. And, as a school official, it's even higher. His sacred responsibility is toward the safety of the kids and for the education of the kids.
And so what he's doing is fundamentally anti-child and anti-education. So, the colleagues around him have to be able to say, this cannot stand. And if we don't do that, and if they don't do that, then we lose credibility with our own children. And we have got to be able to stand out and speak out.
COOPER: Anthony, you know, I guess some people would say, well, look, this is a -- a small town. This is just some -- you know, some guy on a school board. What does it really matter? You would say what?
TURNER: I would say that I'm from a small town. And, you know, it's rough for gay kids and kids who are different in general, no matter where they are. But, in larger communities, in larger areas, you know, there are -- there are gay groups for students. There are PFLAG. There are -- there -- there's an alternate perspective telling them, you know, that -- that it's OK to be who you are.
In these small communities, there's -- there's nothing. You know, there -- this is the kind of thing that they often hear. And so we have a responsibility to -- to tell kids everywhere, in rural -- in rural communities across the country, throughout the world, that there are people out here, out there that care about them, and that this kind of thing is not going to be tolerated anymore, that people are going to stand up for -- for their rights.
It's not just about Pleasant Plains, Arkansas, which I love dearly, but it's -- it's about small communities and large communities, communities in general across the country. Kids need to know that people care.
COOPER: And I don't want to paint small communities with a broad brush. My dad's from a small down in -- in Mississippi, and the people there are fantastic.
TURNER: Yes.
COOPER: This man does not represent -- clearly, all the other school officials are, you know, making very public statements in Arkansas, saying -- Arkansas, saying, this man does not represent our thoughts.
But this man is on the school board, Rosalind. Where do you think -- I mean, do you think he will step down? Do you think he will make comments? Do bullies, when you confront them, when you call them out, what do you -- you know, he's running behind -- he's hiding behind his dad right now at this point.
WISEMAN: Well, this is what I think. I think that he has got to be a man and step down, because he did something that was not honorable, and that he really was anti-child, and he betrayed the children that he was responsible for.
But the other thing I really want to say is that we have got to get people who are talking about this, you know, anti-bullying education, and say, we don't want certain people in our schools, or we just want to talk about gay issues in ways of, you know, not really -- you know, sort of skirting around the issue, that we have got to get these people to say, we don't tolerate those people as well. We don't tolerate hatred, because what it -- otherwise, what happens is, there's this public feeling of that we can't hold accountable people who need to be held accountable.
So, I'm asking the people in his community to say, with dignity, you cannot be a part of helping and being a part of our child -- of our children's communities. You just can't do it.
COOPER: Well, we continue our invitation to Mr. McCance to come on this program. We would like to hear his perspective.
Rosalind Wiseman, Anthony Turner, appreciate both of you being on with us. Thank you.

text: African crested rat coats hidden hairs in plant poison Science 03 August 11 by Mark Brown Tweet Oxford University / Margaret Kinnaird Oxford University zoologists have discovered that the East African crested rat brews up a batch of lethal toxin from poison-arrow trees, and slathers the heart-stopping goo on spiky, hidden hairs.The 50-centimetre-long rodent might look like a tasty treat as it scrambles about the wooded valleys of Kenya and the Horn of Africa, but once disturbed it can part the long fur on its flanks to reveal a vivid black and white pattern of poisonous barbs.Those hairs have evolved to rapidly absorb the poisonous mixture, and the rat itself appears to be completely immune to the deadly effects of the poison. The toxic strands lie close to the rat's head, neck and thorax, which are protected with bone, a reinforced backbone and ultra-tough skin.Jonathan Kingdon of Oxford University's Department of Zoology, and an author of the study, said, "We observed the rat gnawing poison-arrow-tree bark directly from the plant, chewing it and then deliberately slathering the resulting mixture onto its specialised flank hairs."The resulting pattern of black and white hairs is, "almost as if it is 'daring' a predator to take a bite of these poisoned hairs," said Kingdon.The poison-arrow trees (Acokanthera) contain the cardiotoxic poison ouabain, which can stimulate weak hearts at low doses and kill an elephant when coated on arrow heads. The Oxford researchers hope that probing the chemistry and genetics of the Crested Rat's immunity to ouabain could lead to new medicines for humans.

Last weekend saw Ohio State land Tommy Schutt and Se'Von Pittman after their recruiting visits. This weekend probably won't feature quite the fireworks, but there is still important work to be done by the Buckeyes.
The top visitor expected this weekend is Noah Spence. We previously discussed Spence here, and the nation's top uncommitted defensive end remains infatuated with Ohio State after previously being thought to be a Penn State lean. In fact, some believe he is already a silent verbal commitment to Ohio State. I don't know about that, but I do know that if Meyer reels in Spence, the Buckeyes' haul of defensive linemen will be one of the best in the country.
The Buckeyes are also expecting a visit from safety Bam Bradley. Bradley is a three-star safety from Trotwood, Ohio, claiming offers from Ohio State, Penn State, Stanford and Vanderbilt.

Role of jobs in tackling homelessness to be aired at event in Winchester
11:00am Sunday 26th January 2014 in News
WINCHESTER Churches Nightshelter is hosting an event to help rebuild the lives of homeless people.
The event, which marks Poverty and Homelessness Action Week, will see guest speakers talk on the theme of 'Trust Matters: Working to Rebuild Shattered Lives'.
Speakers include Vic Laws, Restaurant Ambassador for The Clink Restaurant at HMP High Down, who trained prisoners in the hospitality industry through the charity, which helps offenders find paid employment upon their release.
He will share his experiences, and will also discuss the role of employment in rebuilding trust and confidence for the homeless.
Paul Montgomery, Nightshelter chairman, said: "We felt that this theme was an important one to explore; how important is it to be trusted to make us feel valued? How important is it to have a job, an identity in employment?
"These are vital questions for anyone dealing with issues relating to homelessness."
Winchester Cathedral and the University of Winchester will also contribute to the talks – both have worked with the Nightshelter to provide work placement schemes for the homeless.
The event at the Winchester Discovery Centre starts at 7.30pm on January 29, and is free of charge.
For more information visit wcns.org.uk, and to book a place in advance call 01962 862050 or email email@example.com.

Carolina Catch-All
"I'm ready to catch whatever's willing to bite!" says Capt. Richard Budalich, a freelance skipper who runs private and charter boats in North Carolina, Florida and the Caribbean. He especially likes fishing out of Morehead City, North Carolina, for the grab-bag possibilities. "Morehead has an excellent run of tuna in April and May," he says. "After that, we change from focusing exclusively on yellowfin to trying to catch everything from dolphin to blue marlin."
As bridge teasers, Budalich often deploys a dredge and another personal favorite. "I'm particularly fond of my Ilander teaser: a chain of four standard blue Ilander lures followed by an Express Jet with a mullet or mackerel stuffed inside it," he says.
Dink ballyhoo on 20- or 30-pound gear occupy the flat-line positions, about 10 feet behind each teaser. These baits may tempt anything from dolphin to sailfish to white marlin. "They work like pitch baits, but they're already in the water," Budalich says. "I like to keep both flat-line baits the same distance back because fish often come up on one bait, take a whack at it and shoot right across the spread to grab the other."
Short-rigger baits slip in about 20 feet beyond the flat-liners. Here, Budalich might run a dink bally on 20- or 30-pound tackle or a Pro Soft Scupper or other chugger head on 80-pound. "I always put my larger lures on heavy tackle in the short-rigger spot because that's where I seem to get the most blue marlin bites," he says.
Another all-time favorite North Carolina bait, the SeaWitch/ballyhoo combo, gets into the pattern's long-rigger spots. Budalich sets these about 120 feet back of the transom using 50-pound outfits because these baits, he says, "could get hit by anything from 80-pound yellowfin to 100-pound wahoo to blue marlin ranging from 100 pounds and up."
A "shortgun" bait (naked dink ballyhoo on 30-pound tackle) trails 150 to 180 feet behind the transom, followed by a deeper shotgun bait at least 200 feet back. This caboose usually consists of an Ilander/ballyhoo combo on 50-pound gear.
Tonga Tactics
"Within 10 minutes of our harbor, we reach underwater cliffs that go from 300 to 3,000 feet and extend for 5 miles," says Capt. Steve Campbell of Ika Lahi Lodge in Tonga. "On any given day we can encounter blue, black and striped marlin, sailfish, spearfish, wahoo, mahimahi, yellowfin and dogtooth tuna."
Campbell takes advantage of this South Pacific smorgasbord with a trolling spread that features a mix of heavy and light tackle and large and small lures. He also keeps pitch baits at the ready, rigged on several different line-class outfits.
Thinking big blues, Campbell sets out a Mold Craft Big Johnson/cone-head lure combo as a bridge teaser on the right side's second wave. A medium-sized plunger on 80-pound gear rides close behind on the third wave, with the line clipped to the transom.
He then puts out a giant killer on 130-pound tackle on the left side's first wave. "I'm a fan of Black Bart lures and use their larger models, such as Marlin Candy, Hawaiian Breakfast and Super Plunger," he says. He clips the line to the transom and keeps the lure close to reduce reaction time after a hookup. "We have to get on top of big fish quickly; otherwise, they can cut the line on the steep drop-off," says Campbell.
An 80-pound outfit pulls a medium plunger-style lure on the right rigger, set on the fifth wave. Or when targeting yellowfin or mahimahi, Campbell puts out a smaller jet head on 50-pound tackle. "Of course, when we do that, Murphy's Law sends a big blue to eat that lure," he says with a grin.
The left-rigger lure, also on the fifth wave, usually consists of a small plunger on 50-pound gear. Ten waves back, a jet head on 50-pound picks up any fish that may not want to rush into the heart of the spread. A center rigger keeps this line up and out of the way.
"In flat seas I keep my spread tight to the transom. When it gets rough, I space out the lures because I do a lot of sharp turns when working the drop-off," says Campbell.

Castle Music Festival Cancelled
Set to return for it's sophomore year, the boutique festival has been forced to cancel this year's event.
A lineup which boasted Northeast Party House, Oliver Tank, Flume and more, the festival's Facebook page stated earlier today:
"Dear Castle fans,
It is with much regret that we must announce the cancellation of this years Castle Music Festival.
We have spent many, many hours working to bring this event to fruition, but unfortunately issues with the Council regarding impact on surrounding properties and neighbours have brought this dream to an unexpected halt. They have advised us that they will not be able to offer support anymore, and without it, we cannot proceed.
We have looked into so many other options, but none of these could bring you the festival that you deserve, so we have made the difficult decision to cancel it.
For those that have already secured tickets, your money is being refunded as we speak - Let us know if you do not receive your refund within 7 days.
To make up for this situation, we're looking at holding a one night event on Friday the 29th of June - the same Friday as the festival was supposed to be on. It will be much cheaper, the capacity will be greater and we're hoping to keep most of the same acts from the original line-up. An event will be put up soon detailing everything, including where you can get tickets.
We know this is nowhere near what you all wanted, but we're trying to make the best out of a bad situation. We are sorry to all the artists, their fans, our friends and anyone who has been let down by this terrible situation. Try to understand that no one will be more devastated by this than we are.
Please direct all hate mail to firstname.lastname@example.com"
Stay tuned to Beat for more developments.

Rosslyn Park commit the deadly sin of going down to 14 men (From Croydon Guardian)

Park pay the penalty to lose ground at the top of National League One
3:27pm Wednesday 19th December 2012 in Sport By Tim Ashton, Sports Editor
Rosslyn Park head coach Jan Bonney says they paid a heavy price at Blaydon for losing a man to the sin bin.
With the top of the table National League One clash still pointless, Park prop Lorne Ward was shown a yellow card, and Blaydon took full advantage running in three converted tries for a 21-0 lead.
But with their full quota back on the pitch, Park restricted Blaydon to one more score, while they fought back through two Charlie Broughton tries, efforts from Hugo Ellis and Nev Edwards, and a Mike Hamilton conversion – but in the end, Park had to settle for two bonus points from a 28-22 defeat.
Bonney said: "They scored three tries while we had a man in the sin bin and only one when we didn't, that tells you everything.
"All credit to the players for keeping going. At 28-5, we continued to push on and got those bonus points, which could still prove important."
Park host leaders Ealing Trailfinders this weekend in the final game before the Christmas break.
"We're seven points behind Ealing and we're confident we can put in a performance and get something from the game and get back near the top again – confident, that is, if we can keep 15 players on the field."
Bonney says he has a full squad at his disposal for the vital Ealing clash.
Park return after the new year with a trip to Cinderford on January 5.

Updated July 24 at 12:20 PM CST: Arma, Kansas residents can now safely use the water from their faucets.
City officials tell us the water results came back clean from the Kansas Department of Health this morning.
The city wide boil advisory has now been lifted.
Updated July 23 at 4:40 PM CST: A boil advisory is in effect for the city of Arma, Kansas while officials await test results of water samples taken today.
The advisory came after a water main break over the weekend, with the scorching temperatures we're experiencing to blame.
Muriel Stroud of Arma might have normally shied away from producing unnecessary heat on an already hot day. But this afternoon she fired up her stove to boil a pot of water after the city issued a boil advisory.
"I'd rather do that then wonder what's in it and not take care of it," Stroud tells us. "Shouldn't bother anybody really and nowadays everybody's in the house anyhow in the air conditioning."
Brad Johnson also doesn't mind doing a little extra work to make sure his water is safe, saying it's "no big deal".
"Boil orders is a necessary evil," Johnson says. "When you have a breakage you've got to fix it. You just expect that."
The boil order came as a result of a ruptures water main below the pavement. City officials say the extreme heat caused the surface to shift, which then pulled the underground pipes apart.
"When we have a dry, hot summer like we're seeing right now, it's not uncommon," says Arma City Administrator Troy Graham. "We're using PVC pipes now, which we've upgraded a lot of our system over the years and that's the safest way to be with something like that, but you just can't foresee it."
Kansas Department of Health officials did take some test samples of the water but until the results come back the advisory will remain in place.
"Better safe than sorry," Graham says.
Graham expects the test results to come back by Tuesday morning, possibly even late Monday evening. If everything is clear the boil advisory will be lifted.
The city had also asked residents to refrain from using any unnecessary water after the breakage occurred, but that advisory is no longer in place.
Updated July 23 at 1:40 PM CST: Officials tell us they are downgrading the city of Arma from a boil order to a boil advisory.
We're told no contaminants have been found at this time, but residents are still being advised to boil water until further notice.
Posted July 23, 2012 at 11:57 AM CST: The city of Arma, Kansas is under a boil order after a water main break Sunday afternoon.
City officials say the rupture was caused by extreme heat.
About half of the city was without water for a couple of hours.
Water has been restored but a boil order will remain in effect until further notice.
Residents are asked to refrain from any outdoor watering and unnecessary use of water.

Walgreens Celebrates Its 111-Years of Innovation
Walgreens, the iconic pharmacy chain and its Texas-based ad agency the Austin offer people to celebrate together with the company its 111-year-history of innovation. In June, the company announced a merger with another giant, Alliance Boots, the companies are looking for a full merger within three years. Meanwhile, Walgreens addresses its own history.
The first move within the new campaign is a 30-second commercial that begins as a b&w documentary shots of the first store founded by Charles Walgreen in 1901, and continues gaining color and several innovations the company created, such as childproof caps and drive-through pharmacies.
A voiceover (by actor John Corbett) tells viewers about the most significant milestones in the company's history. The mood of the commercial is friendly and 'easy-going' featuring a soundtrack groove from Creedence Clearwater Revival's 'Down on the Corner.'
From the shots of the company's flagship store on State Street in Chicago to the demonstration of the newest prescription refill app for smartphones, Walgreens has been moving forward for more than one century to surprise consumers with affordable convenience—that is the message of the video which uses the tagline 'At the corner of happy and healthy.'
"What we're trying to do is speak to the innovations that have been a part of the brand since Charles Walgreen started a company back in 1901," Nancy Ryan, senior vice president and group account director at the agency, told in an interview to Marketing Daily. "What we found is that Walgreens didn't get the credit for these innovations. When we took this work into testing, consumers were very interested in how Walgreens did these things."
Walgreens plans to become a more health-oriented platform that will include the rollout of more fresh foods and other items in the near future, Ryan added.
