“Your Will Be done on earth as it is in Heaven…”The Lord’s prayer is truly heavenly. It directs us to our Father in Heaven, and it is to heaven that we look for and seek the blessings we need. The prayer seems designed to shape our affections and desires towards heaven. We are being taught to align our wills to heaven’s agenda as we ask for God’s kingdom and will to be done, and God’s name to be glorified above all of our own personal needs and desires. Yet, here in the third request our minds and desires are directed...

George Osborne was left reeling tonight after peers dramatically threw out the government's planned tax credits cuts - overturning the views of elected MPs. The House of Lords voted 289 to 272 delay the changes for three years until measures could be introduced to protect poor families. The tax credit cuts are central to the Government's plan to eliminate the deficit by 2020 - saving £4.4billion from the welfare bill. Downing Street said the UK was in 'unchartered waters' after the vote, which goes against centuries of tradition that the House of Commons decides financial matters.

As the sun sinks behind buildings and meadows; When darkness moves in and the lesser lights rule - Lone figures scurry and slink in the shadows Mangy and starving they search, sniff and drool. During the day they rest and they slumber Seeking a spot in the sun or the shade; Once it is dark and the sun has gone under They run in packs for protection and aid.

Plans to sweep away 1,000 years of history by replacing the House of Lords with an elected senate will be unveiled within weeks. Gordon Brown vowed yesterday to complete reform of the Lords, which has been stalled for several years. The Prime Minister will seek agreement from other parties on a move to a wholly or largely elected second chamber. The move would mean hundreds of peers being axed and elections introduced to the upper house for the first time.

My Dragon Fly and Me If I could be a Dragon Fly and wing my way through the sky I would never be shy just me and my Dragon Fly! By moonlight we ride the wind chase the comets tail for fun by day we would hide from the sun our fragile wings would come undone On darkest nights we would use fireflies as our guide we would dip and we would glide through the heavens open wide and scatter diamonds in the night sky my Dragon Fly and me... And we would wing past our lovers silent in...

Law lords back school over ban on Islamic gown By Joshua Rozenberg, Legal Editor (Filed: 23/03/2006) A schoolgirl who was refused permission to wear a full-length Islamic gown in class was not deprived of the right to manifest her religion, five law lords ruled yesterday. The House of Lords allowed an appeal by Denbigh High School, in Luton, against a unanimous ruling by the Court of Appeal last March in favour of Shabina Begum, 17. Shabina Begum: 'Quite happy that it's all over' Lord Bingham said it would be "irresponsible" for any court to overrule the school's judgment "on a...

Radio call signs identify the parties to a conversation on military radios. Some of the names are related to unit mascots, like BullDog or Iron Horse. Numbers with those names identify the parties talking. For example, "4" would be the supply/logistics section. "2" would be the intel section. "6" is always the commander. As Bill Peterson explains, the following is a tract produced by his uncle, Oliver Peterson, who was a chaplain in Vietnam. This page is dedicated to the men and women who have served in the various branches of our nation's Armed Forces in times of war and...

BELLEVILLE - Nine chiefs of police have endorsed a letter written by Belleville Police Chief Dave Ruebhausen urging that three Illinois state troopers charged with weapons violations not to be prosecuted. If they are guilty, they should be punished administratively, according to Ruebhausen's letter given Tuesday to the News-Democrat. The letter also was endorsed by two state senators, two sheriffs and retired Belleville Police Chief Terry Delaney, a former U.S. marshal. But a statement on Tuesday issued by interim U.S. Attorney Edward McNally cautioned, "These matters are now in public court ... no doubt many of the officials (listed in...

A Monarchy in Danger Freedom Today Magazine The United Kingdom By William John Hagan New Labour has become the greatest threat to the future of the British Monarchy since Oliver Cromwell. The only people to blame for this current state of affairs are those most loyal to the Crown who have somehow failed to confront the issue of public antipathy, illogically hoping that the problem would just disappear. It won’t, as long as today’s incarnation of British Labour controls Parliament. I will say this only once: what works for the United States will not work for the United Kingdom. However,...

Powerful gay men. Vulnerable teen-age boys. Murder. For years, some prominent local men who led secret lives were rumored to be protected. Whispers surrounding another important man's death prompt the question: Is there really a conspiracy? Why we wrote these stories A conspiracy theory born in the late 1970s and early '80s had become a long-forgotten legend until last September, when the slaying of Assistant District Attorney Stephen M. Tauzer gave new life to speculation about "The Lords of Bakersfield." We felt this legend and the crimes that spawned it warranted a closer look. We believed readers would find these...
