Angel of the Waters Prayer Campaign
Date: 08/01/2011
Issue No. 277
We were led to hold a prayer campaign from July 15-20. Because the revelation alert came just a few days before it was to start, I was unable to include it in our last FFI. But all of you who read my daily weblogs on my web site were able to follow along as the revelation unfolded.
The whole project surfaced when the news reported that the Dalai Lama (the head of Tantric Buddhism) was to come to Washington D.C. to hold a religious ceremony invoking 722 Buddhist gods upon our nation's capital.
They have been doing this type of ceremony for centuries, and they have done it here in America as well about 300 times over the past decades. In short, they use spiritualism to open up a "portal" between the earthly and spiritual realms, through which their "gods" (biblical demons) can gain entrance. These demonic forces then possess their monks who seek spiritual power in their ascent toward being an "ascended master."
They also have a political agenda, believing that the Dalai Lama is the legitimate King-Priest that is called to rule all nations. That is why he comes with messages of "world peace" and "love." But the Buddhist vision of world peace and love is very different from what the Bible sets forth. Moreover, our King-Priest is Jesus Christ, the High Priest after the Order of Melchizedek.
The Kalachakra Tantra
The Dalai Lama's priests come under the cover of "culture" and "art," which tends to make their religious rituals more acceptable to politicians who would otherwise be horrified to mix religion and politics. The monks spent ten days constructing a Sand Mandala, where they color sand to paint symbols and the gods that they wished to conjure up in Washington. Then they destroy it and pour the sand into a nearby body of water.
They started on July 6, the Dalai Lama's 76th birthday. As you recall, 76 is the biblical number of cleansing. Apparently, they thought this was the most opportune time to take over Washington spiritually, but in fact, it was time for Washington to be cleansed of Buddhist gods. Their reason for doing this ceremony is given on one of their web sites:
Washington serves as an auspicious womb for the service, for "His Holiness is conferring the Kalachakra empowerment in a location where local decisions affect multitudes around the world." Many believe that the karmic energy produced by the Kalachakra will work to affect policymakers and leaders to bring about peace in the world.
The monks worked until July 16 when the monks gathered to chant and open up the portal for their gods to descend upon them. We ourselves were led into spiritual warfare on the night of July 15 in order to block their portal from opening, set the angels of God to guard the closed portals, and, in short, "just say NO."
So we observed the monks working overtime on July 17, attempting to overcome their failure. Whether or not Christians believe or understand spiritual things, these Buddhist monks do, and when they fail, they know it. The only reason they can obtain power is because Christians do nothing and allow them to win by default.
The word Kalachakra means "Wheel of Time" and also "Wheel of Death." While they claim that these are being done to promote world peace, they are actually being done to establish a Buddhocracy with the Dalai Lama as the King of the World. Their idea of world peace is to convert the world to Buddhism (their brand), much like the goal of Communism is to bring about world peace by enslaving all men to its ideology.
A description of the Kalachakra ceremony can be found online at www.buddhanet.net/kalini.htm . It says,
"The thekpu is the special house where the mandala is built. There is a brocade throne where the Vajra Master, in this case His Holiness the Dalai Lama, sits to give the initiation, and the altar to the Kalachakra deity contains elaborate offerings and ritual objects."
In other words, the Dalai Lama was to be enthroned in this ceremony—empowered by "the Kalachakra deity."
On the first day of the ceremony, a representative of the students requests that the Vajra Master give the initiation, and he consents, showing his great compassion for his students. Next the Vajra Master asks the local spirits for permission to use their home. Usually the spirits at first do not want to cooperate so to appease them, the assisting monks perform the Dance of the Earth, making symbolic gestures with their hands and feet. The prayers, music and dance subdue all interfering spirits.
After the dance, the Dalai Lama receives permission to proceed with the ceremony from Tenma, the earth spirit, on behalf of all the local spirits. The mandala will house many of the thousands of deities found in Tibetan Buddhism during the ceremony. . . .
On the third day, water mixed with a special spice, saffron, is scattered on the lines of the mandala; with it, the Vajra Master rubs out certain lines on the mandala blueprint, opening the entrance ways for the 722 deities who will reside in the mandala during the ceremony. In order to enter our world, they need a clean and pure place to stay. Grains of wheat are also placed on the mandala at this time, representing cushions where the gods and goddesses are invited to sit. . . .
In the last part of the ceremony, the Dalai Lama says prayers, thanking the 722 deities for their participation and requesting them to leave the mandala and return to their sacred homes.
As I said, they have done this in 300 locations in America alone. Each time, they have opened up a portal to allow their gods free access—or perhaps we should say that the portals allow the Buddhist monks free access to these demonic spirits.
Just as they were ready to take over Washington D.C., we were given the authority to close all of the portals at one time. It was interesting, then, to observe how the monks failed on July 16 to open the portal.
The Gates of Hell
There was a biblical portal near Caesarea Philippi in Jesus' day. Jesus called it "the gates of hell" in Matt. 16:18. It was the location of one of the golden calves built by Jeroboam in 1 Kings 12:29 at the city of Dan. The prophets attributed Israel's captivity to those golden calves (1 Kings 14:16). In fact, in 2001 we were led into a series of spiritual battles to overthrow those golden calves.
The Kalachakra at the World Trade Center
The Dalai Lama came to New York in 1991 to do a Kalachakra ceremony, ten years before the Twin Towers were demolished. The Washington Post ran an article about this, saying,
"In 1991 in New York City a so-called Kalachakra Sand Mandala was constructed, then destroyed by the Dalai Lama, and the sand was poured into the water near the World Trade Center. Two years later in 1993 another Wheel of Time (Kalachakra) Sand Mandala was built by Tibetan Monks in the lobby of Tower One…If they did have any magical effect at all, it was to produce exactly the opposite [of peace]."
It is of interest to us that these ceremonies appear to obtain results according to the Hezekiah Factor. They constructed the Kalachakra in 1991, then destroyed it by gathering up the sand and pouring it in the river near the World Trade Center—and ten years later the Twin Towers were demolished.
Next, they constructed a Sand Mandala in the lobby of Tower One in 1993. Their intent was to take spiritual control over world trade, commerce, and the banking system of Mystery Babylon. Ten years later (2003) we overthrew Iraq, which is the old territory of Babylon. 2003 was also 70 years after the banks foreclosed on America (1933), beginning our actual 70-year captivity to Babylon.
No doubt they were unaware that on May 28, 1991 God had established our own ministry, whereby we were called to conduct our own spiritual warfare. It was actually activated two years later in November 1993, when we were called into action. That was the start of the Jubilee Prayer Campaign that lasted for 13 years until 2006.
I believe that there is an opposing connection between our ministry and that of the Dalai Lama. We are their natural enemy, which God has raised up to countermand the Buddhization of America. While they work to promote the Dalai Lama, we work to promote Jesus Christ as the true King-Priest of the world.
So now in 2011 the Dalai Lama has returned, this time to do a Kalachakra in Washington D.C., hoping to use spiritual power to take over the political apparatus of Mystery Babylon. And once again, we were led to thwart his plans, though both Pelosi and Boehner welcomed him.
The Warfare July 15-20
The warfare was actually completed at 3:00 p.m. on July 18. We were successful, of course. But yet the prayer campaign had to continue for another two days, because the losers, we knew by revelation, were going to appeal their case before the Divine Court.
This appeals process is done primarily because the losers never think they ought to lose their case. As far as they are concerned, they think that their obedience to their gods means that they should always win their case. When they lose, it is always attributed to opposition sending negative thoughts from the dark side. But if they knew who God really is, they would understand.
The Law of God gives all men the right to appeal their case. All men have equal rights before this Court, but the winner is determined purely by who is on the right side of the divine Law. When Christians are truly led by the Spirit, they will always win their case. However, when an appeal is made, most Christians are unaware that they must answer this appeal. Because most Christians have never studied the Law of God and do not know its place in spiritual warfare, they usually end up losing the appeal by default. In other words, they fail to answer the appeals, so their victory is neutralized.
We were told ahead of time that the Dalai Lama or one of his representatives would appeal their case, and that we would have to answer it the night of July 20. As it turned out, their appeal was registered at 9:00 p.m., July 20, and we were then led to answer it an hour later. This completed our victory.
Feast of Tabernacles in July
The old revelation that "July is like September" is based upon the fact that September is the 7th month on the Hebrew calendar, whereas July is our 7th month.
In fact, September means "seventh month," even as October means "eighth month," November means "ninth month, and December means "tenth month." These were named before the Romans established January as the first month of their calendar.
On the Hebrew calendar, the seventh month is when Trumpets, Atonement, and Tabernacles occur. We usually see signs of those feast days in July as well. This year we took note that straight-line winds blew down a million trees here on July 1, which corresponds to the day of the blowing of trumpets (Lev. 23:24).
This day prophesies of the resurrection of the dead, as I explained in my book, The Laws of the Second Coming. In Ezekiel 37 we read the prophecy of the resurrection by means of a "wind," which is ruach, or spirit (breath). Verse 9 says,
9 Then He said to me, "Prophesy to the breath [ruach], prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath [ruach], "Come from the four winds [ruachiym], O breath [ruach], and breathe on these slain, that they may come to life.
And so, the blowing of the wind (breath) of God brings about the resurrection of the dead. This is symbolized by the blowing of the trumpet or trumpets. A single trumpet raises the rulers (overcomers) in the first resurrection; two trumpets raises the congregation (church) to life in the general resurrection. (See Numbers 10:3, 4).
The point is that the sign given to us this year was a great wind storm on July 1, 2011. It was a virtual repeat of a similar wind storm that occurred here 14 years earlier on July 1, 1997.
In fact, this entire year we have been seeing feast-day signs on our modern calendar. January was a Passover month for us, and February showed prophetic signs of the Second Passover. So the wind storm on July 1st was just part of a series of types and shadows of the biblical feast days.
I was asked to speak at a nearby church on July 10, and the Lord instructed me to teach on the Jubilee. The tenth day of the seventh month is the Day of Atonement and also the Jubilee (Lev. 23:27-32; 25:9-16).
Finally, July 15-22 was like the feast of Tabernacles (Lev. 23:34-36). Tabernacles in July encompassed our prayer campaign from July 15-20, and we received the word of the Lord to watch July 22 in particular.
The Angels Leading this Prayer Campaign
We knew from the start that all of the angels of the overcomers were to be involved in this prayer campaign. On the morning of July 20 we learned that "the angel of the waters" (Rev. 16:4, 5) had been given a leading role.
We then understood that this angel was in the forefront because the Dalai Lama intended to destroy his Sand Mandala and cast it into the waters. This opened up a whole new insight into the spiritual roots of this ceremony as well as our own prayer campaign. Gen. 1:9, 10 reads,
9 Then God said, "Let the waters below the heavens be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appear; and it was so. 10 And God called the dry land earth, and the gathering of the waters He called seas; and God saw that it was good.
This is not only applicable to the creative process, but is also an expression of biblical Law. There are "laws of the land" and the "law of the high sea," or maritime law. Maritime law rules international trade and is the legal basis of today's United Nations.
There is no question that in order to conduct world trade, there must be some kind of merchant laws to ensure payment for goods exported and imported. Trade disputes are settled by tribunal and not by constitutional law, which demands "due process."
The problem comes when this law of the high sea becomes the law of the land, for this is a violation of the separation of earth and sea that God established in Genesis.
If you go to a courthouse today, you will probably notice a flag waving in the wind in front of the building. It is an American flag that represents the law of the land. Yet if you go inside the building to the courtroom itself, you will probably notice a gold-fringed flag, which, in essence, denies "due process." It is a military flag used in court martials, where the defendants are denied constitutional rights in favor of a military tribunal.
A gold fringed flag used widely by courts, schools, service organizations and private individuals is NOT a symbol of our constitutional republic, or national Union of States. It signifies a military jurisdictional presence.
One official difference between the two flags is that when the fringe is placed around the Flag it denotes a military battle flag, not a national Flag. Now the lawful status of a Citizen becomes important. For in a military jurisdiction, where the court-martial tribunal displays the fringed battle flag, it may impose criminal sanctions for issues involving contracts, without due process of law. In a Judicial Department court under the national Flag, as described in the Constitution for the United States of America, as well as in State Constitutions, due process must be observed and followed, with all the protection of Constitutional Law.
Hence, the Dalai Lama's idea of "world peace" is based upon maritime law, or international law, and by casting the sand into the water, he symbolically puts the land under international law.
Secondly, Rev. 16:4, 5 shows that this angel was present at the time of the first plague on Egypt when Moses turned the water into blood (Ex. 7:20). The long-term prophetic significance of this was to show that the blood of Jesus Christ would cover the earth. This was a "plague" upon all the false gods of Egypt, the Nile gods in particular. But ultimately, it was a very positive prophecy.
The Dalai Lama, however, counterfeits this and brings foreign gods into authority over the land.
We also received a report from The Netherlands, who had received revelation about a bridge on which the word "angel" had been written. He then saw a rainbow. He connected this to the "Rainbow Angel" in Rev. 10:1 holding the "little book."
The same day we heard from a friend in Canada, who had been led to take a holiday at Niagara Falls and the "Rainbow Bridge" that connects the two countries. This happened during our prayer campaign, confirming that the Rainbow Angel was indeed working with the Angel of the Waters in all of this. The Lord then filled in the final detail by revealing the Earth Angel as the third leading angel of this prayer campaign.
Picture two lands connected by a Rainbow Bridge over the water. The "Little Book" is the Bible itself, which became "little" only after the development of the printing press in the 1450's allowed it to be greatly reduced in both size and in price. See my FFI issue #177.
In other words, it is the Word of God that connects nations and holds jurisdiction over the waters—"peoples, and multitudes and nations and tongues" (Rev. 17:15). Unity and "bridges to world peace" must be established only in accordance with the laws of God.
The Alternate Target
As we have so often observed over the years, when the enemy is denied its primary target, due to our efforts in spiritual warfare, they seek a secondary target at a more vulnerable location. In this case, our success was Norway's loss, because on July 22 (i.e., the 8th day of Tabernacles), a man set off a fertilizer bomb in Oslo, where a number of important peace treaties have been signed. That killed seven people. Then the same man dressed up in a police uniform and massacred at least 87 children on an island camp. These were children of the Labor party's government officials.
The man was described as a "right-wing extremist." Not many can see the connection between this man and the Dalai Lama's Tantric Buddhism. Yet the symbol of the swastika originated in Buddhism. Hitler's inner circle were occultists of the Thule Society, which was greatly influenced by Madame Blavatsky. She was initiated in Tibet in the mid-1800's and was primarily responsible for bringing Buddhist philosophy to the West through her "Theosophist Society." She was an inspiration to the Nazi inner circle of the SS. Thus, the gods of Buddhism found an outlet for revenge in Norway after being denied a portal in Washington D.C.

So I'm helping a friend of mine find a good cup for her. Because of medical conditions, she needs to have one that's longer (for good capacity due to a very heavy flow) but that's not very wide, because otherwise it will cause her extreme pain to take out. She also needs a softer and squishier one. Does anyone have any brand and size suggestions? Any help would be good!
She has endometrosis which means a lot of scarring at the vaginal opening, so that's why it needs to be squishy and not wide.

About Us
With over 100 years' experience Goulds has developed into the Dorchester's foremost and most modern Department Store Group.
Please click here for recruitment opportunities in our stores and garden centre
Established in 1902 and with over a hundred and fifteen years' retail experience, Goulds has developed into Dorset's premier department store group.
Founded in Dorchester, Dorset, it is still an independent family run business, we're proud of our enviable reputation of providing first class shopping facilities and a service to match for our customers.
All the latest trends in home furnishings, gifts, women's fashion and gardening have been brought together to bring you the best in quality and value.
Opened by Harry and Florence Gould, the great grandparents of two of the present directors, Anthony and Chris Gould, the first draper's shop was located on the corner of High East Street and Icen Way in Dorchester's town centre. With other premises opened in Portland and more in Dorchester, it was decided that efforts would be concentrated on the Dorchester stores: Goulds Household Store and Goulds Fashion Store. In 1997 Humphries Garden Centre at Weymouth was purchased and is now known as Goulds Garden Centre, the place to shop in south Dorset for plants, pots, garden furniture and horticultural products.
The business has enjoyed steady growth since the doors first opened back in 1902, with the founder's sons, Ronald, Arthur and Ted joining the company after completing their retail training. Ronald and Arthur eventually took over the directing of the company and it was their enthusiasm and vision that laid the foundations for today's successful stores and garden centre. When Ronald died, Arthur carried on running the company along with the help of their accountant, John Keeping, and over the next few years, the next generation of Goulds became interested and involved in the family business. Richard and Roger, the sons of Ronald, and Stephen, the son of Arthur, joined the company with John Keeping becoming Chairman of the Board after the death of Arthur. He was actively involved in advising and negotiating the company's expansive programme during a period of 23 years.
In 1979 Philip Gould, Ronald's third son, joined the company. Christopher Gould was appointed chairman in 1994 and John Keeping continued with Goulds as the company secretary.
In 2000 Richard retired from the family business and Roger's son Anthony joined as Garden Centre Director.
Goulds celebrated their Centenary year in 2002. The longevity of this achievement for an independent family business has only been made possible through the years of dedication, loyalty and hard work from everyone who has been part of the business and the great family tradition.
2002 also saw the retirement of Christopher Gould and the appointment of Michael Mitchell, previous Chairman of Beales.
Roger's second son, Chris, joined the family company in 2005, becoming the department manager of the Bedding and Bathroom department.
Chris Gould and Rebecca Murphy both became Directors of Goulds in May 2008 and in 2011 we were re-awarded the Investors In People Award. We were also very pleased to have been shortlisted for the Drapers Fashion Award 2011 for Department Store of the Year.
In March 2015, we were delighted to have won First Place for Best Window Display and runner up for Best Social Media at the first Dorchester Independent Retailers Awards.
In November 2015 Goulds were pleased to announce the acquisition of Fields of Sidmouth and Trinity House in Axminster.
By shopping at Goulds you're supporting a long established, local family business that employs over 260 local people and makes a significant contribution to the local economy. In turn we support a number of other local businesses, suppliers, service providers, charities, organisations and schools that operate in your local community.
We'd like to take this opportunity to thank you sincerely for choosing to shop with us. Your business is never, ever taken for granted, but is greatly valued and very much appreciated. In return for your custom we'll strive to offer you the very best service and great value and our aim is to ensure that every customer is left completely satisfied following every interaction with our staff and during every visit to our store. We look forward to welcoming you to our department stores in the very near future.

Xavier Rudd (and Friends) to play Mammoth Festival
Xavier Rudd isn't going it alone anymore.
The 36-year-old Australian spent a decade or so performing as a mostly one-man band. He'd appear on stage like a musical mad scientist, seated behind a bulky self-styled setup that included as many as 20 instruments – three didgeridoos, a slide guitar on his lap and more string instruments at his side, a stompbox at his feet, with drums, dobros, banjos, harmonicas and more within reach.
This summer, he's touring with a drummer and a bassist — and he's pared down his setup a bit after finding new ways to create the unique sounds that drive his songs. Local fans will get a look at the new arrangement Saturday at the Snowmass Mammoth Festival.
"It's getting better and bigger sonically, but smarter in terms of not having to carry so much shit," he said from a tour stop in Kauai, Hawaii.
Before his summer tour, Rudd was also working on new material, playing with "a big roots reggae band," with whom he plans to make an album.
He said he recorded demos of new songs earlier this year, and plans to record later this year with the new band in Australia. He's aiming for a 2015 release – his first since 2012's "Spirit Bird." Don't expect him to preview any of the new stuff in Snowmass, however.
"It's written with this big band and I kinda need them," he explained.
Rudd began writing and singing as a kid, and then added instruments to his repertoire to match the growing dimensions of his songs. The growing number of instruments "unfolded organically," he said.
"As I was writing, sometimes it would call for certain emotions that I could create only with certain man-made instruments — and then I wanted to use those instruments live. So I built ways of playing them together. Then that became that kind of crazy massive set that I toured with for years."
Rudd used his multi-tasking talents to craft reggae-tinged roots music on his early albums — 2004's "Solace" and 2007's "White Moth" — then began experimenting with darker tones and blues rhythms. On "Spirit Bird," he fused those diverse styles into cohesive, multi-layered songs that could only have come from him.
He writes mostly about environmental issues and spiritual matters and blends traditional Aboriginal sounds with American folk, blues and rock – often within a single song. Asked about that mix, he points back to his childhood and his father's record collection.
"He was always playing Hendrix and Marianne Faithull and Neil Young and Leonard Cohen," he recalled. "It was all things like that, mixed with my indigenous roots … It's a blend of all sorts of stuff coming in and floating around. I'm a cocktail of different kinds of blood, and my music probably just reflects that."
Rudd has won a devoted local following on the strength of multiple shows at Belly Up and one at the JAS Labor Day Festival in 2008.
Along with this weekend's show at Mammoth Fest, Rudd's summer tour includes stops in Vail, Crested Butte, Boulder and Denver — he's playing more shows in Colorado than anywhere else in the United States.
"I do enjoy Colorado, my brother," he said. "There's a good vibe there. People are groovy, people are conscious, people are fit, people are healthy, people care about themselves and the earth. There's a big spirit in those rocks. There are a lot of things that draw me back to Colorado. I feel pretty connected there, and I feel there's a lot of work to be done there."
Work to Be Done
Rudd has a unique talent for packing an earnest environmental message into a festival-friendly song. In the anthemic "Bow Down," for instance, he begins by lamenting the 2010 Gulf oil spill, the whaling industry, and deforestation, then builds a boot-stomping blues on top of a straightforward green pitch. Some of the lyrics could have been lifted from a public service announcement for children, yet in Rudd's hands it somehow sounds cool.
"Bow down to your god, but don't forget about the earth," he sings in the chorus. "Place your hand on a tree, who's helping you breathe. / Give thanks to the sun, when you open your lungs. / Throw your butts in the bin, help the old turtles swim."
Countless musicians have used pop songs as a soap box to blast politicians and oil companies, and as a call to action for stewardship of the planet. But few musicians have gotten on the front lines as Rudd does regularly.
Rudd's involvement with the successful "Bentley Blockade" on the east coast of Australia, where protesters camped out for weeks blocking delivery of oil and gas drilling equipment, is a source of pride for him. Last month, the protesters' efforts led the Australian government to suspend the company Metgasco's drilling license, citing need for more community input.
The lesson for those with similar drilling views in Western Colorado, Rudd said, is that civil disobedience works — even against oil companies.
"It seems so overwhelming that people don't even want to begin," he said. "But what I've found is that's part of the companies' initial tactic: to spread that fear into people, based on the size of the company and the money involved, saying, 'You can't touch us, we're way too big.'"
He urges Coloradans to take action against drilling and points to Bentley as proof that there is strength in numbers.
"I think people need to understand that although it seems daunting and huge, the weight of the people is massive," he said. "I think we're a bigger threat to the government than people realize."

Thanksgiving is what? It's next week? Wait, are you serious?
If you, like me, are terrible at planning (or knowing what week of the month it currently is), turn to Lauren Marmaduke's excellent guide to dining out on Thanksgiving Day or ordering a full Turkey Day meal from one of Houston's best restaurants. B4-U-Eat also has a comprehensive list of all the restaurants in town that will be open on Thanksgiving. Either way, you'll have far fewer dishes to wash, which means more time to veg out in front of Antenna TV's Three's Company marathon. Yes, you're the Janet; don't ask.
Writing for About Houston, our own Shea Serrano has a list of things to do on Thanksgiving that don't involve Jack and Chrissy: volunteer work. The Waste Management Superfeast will feed approximately 15,000 to 20,000 hungry Houstonians this year, while the Thanksgiving Big Feast at the George R. Brown Convention Center will feed 30,000. Both events still need volunteers to help prep and serve food. If you're mobile, you can also lend a hand to Meals On Wheels as they bring Thanksgiving dinner to elderly residents across the city.
The day after Thanksgiving, forget about Black Friday (the real deals are on Cyber Monday these days anyway). Head to an all-day happy hour from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. at both RA Sushi locations, where more than 35 sushi, appetizer and tapas selections along with a wide variety of beer, wine and signature cocktails will be on deep discount, between $2 and $7. Freebird's will also be offering an all-day happy hour at all locations from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. with $2 mimosas, margaritas and beer in addition to its full menu -- and even brunch at its Shepherd location.

Perry's Steakhouse has a Black Friday deal of its own from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., where hungry diners can chow down on its signature pork chop -- along with whipped potatoes and homemade applesauce -- for only $11.95 at all Perry's locations. Have you seen the size of that thing? Seriously: Black Friday shopping is bush league stuff; Black Friday dining deals is where it's at.
But during this time of great bounty -- a meal with family or friends is always something for which we should be thankful, after all -- remember that nearly one million people in our greater southeast region of Texas will go hungry this year, a plight that's even more pressing during the holidays. You can help by volunteering with the Houston Food Bank, or donating money or food to their operations. Volunteers are especially needed at the Portwall Warehouse and Keegan Kitchen. The Food Bank feeds nearly 137,000 people each week, a truly worthy mission in a time at which 25 percent of Houstonians report struggling to purchase food on a regular basis.

Improving your smile can increase your confidence and dental health. Anyone who is unhappy with their smile can have it fixed.

Dedicated to Improve Your Smile & Dental Health
Dr. Paul Miller, Dr. Michael Caputo, and their staff provide the highest quality of cosmetic dental care. In addition to helping our patients improve the aesthetics of their smile, we provide a full range of general dentistry services. This includes routine cleanings, oral cancer screenings, sealants, gum disease screenings, x-rays, fillings and more. We serve patients of all ages with caring, comprehensive services.
Our cosmetic dentistry services include:
Teeth whitening is an easy way to make teeth whiter and therefore more attractive. Our office uses several methods including professional strength whitestrips, passive tray whitening, and Zoom! teeth whitening systems.
Zoom! is a revolutionary tooth whitening procedure. It's safe, effective, and fast. In just over an hour, your teeth will be dramatically whiter. The convenience of Zoom! in comparison to days of using strips or wearing trays makes it the perfect choice for the busy individual. The Zoom! Whitening procedure is simple. It begins with a short preparation to isolate your lips and gums. The clinician then applies the proprietary Zoom! whitening gel that is activated by a specially designed light. Teeth typically become at least six to ten shades whiter, sometimes more. A fluoride treatment completes the procedure. You'll be amazed with the results. In most cases, teeth get even whiter the first few days after the procedure. Trays with gel are recommended afterward for maximum whitening and maintenance.
The tray method involves having impressions taken from which laboratory fabricated custom vinyl trays are made. A carbamide peroxide gel is placed in these trays and the trays with gel are worn for about 3 hours, or overnight. The entire process takes 3-4 weeks of daily use. Three different strengths of gel may be used, however the higher the strength the greater the likelihood of reactions or tooth sensitivity. The tray method is recommended for badly stained teeth, such as tetracycline staining, and it may take several months of use to see significant color improvement. For maintenance of whitened, teeth the trays should be used every several months.
Veneers are a dental procedure in which a covering is placed over the outside (visible area) of the tooth. Veneers are usually only done to the part of the teeth that are visible when talking or smiling. The procedure can be direct or indirect. The direct technique usually involves placing composite resin on the outside of the tooth using bonding. This method is usually referred to as bonding.
The indirect technique usually involves two appointments because the veneers will be fabricated at a dental laboratory. At the first appointment the teeth are prepared, impressions are taken, and the teeth are given a temporary covering. In two to three weeks the veneers are back from the laboratory, the temporaries are removed and the veneers are bonded to the teeth. The laboratory fabricated veneers are usually made using porcelain or pressed ceramic, and are very esthetic.
The advantage of veneers versus crowns is that much less tooth material is removed, and the procedure is generally less uncomfortable. Veneers are recommended for teeth that have large fillings or little tooth structure.
Crowns are full coverage restorations that are used to cover a tooth that is likely to break, or is too broken down to be restored with a filling. They are most commonly done after root canal treatment, or when a large filling wears out. The larger the hole made by a cavity that has to be treated, the more likely a crown will be needed. Even after a filling is put in a large cavity, a tooth is more likely to break. Keep in mind that the jaw muscles are the strongest in the human body. Teeth are subjected to tremendous pressures. Crowns ride over the weakened tooth, providing strength and protecting the tooth against breakage. A broken or cracked tooth is a far more serious matter and much more difficult to treat. Crowns prevent this, as well as making for a nice smile.
It takes two appointments to restore a tooth with a crown. In the first any decay is removed from the tooth and it is shaped to accept the crown. Then an impression is made of the tooth for use in fabricating a crown. Between the two visits the crown is made, usually of high-strength porcelain over gold alloy, all ceramic material, or gold. During this time a temporary crown is worn. In the second visit this temporary is removed, and the permanent crown is adjusted as needed and then cemented in place.
This is an option for filling the space created by a missing tooth. It is formed to look like the missing tooth, and it takes its place in the mouth. The sides of a bridge use the two surrounding teeth for support, hence the name. A bridge replaces the missing tooth, both functionally and cosmetically. Bridge work is as much an art as it is an exact science. The materials used may be gold alloys, porcelain bonded to metal alloy, or all ceramic material. The choice of material depends on requirements for strength, wear, and/or esthetics.
It is important that a missing tooth be replaced as soon as possible for several reasons. If not treated the teeth surrounding the gap begin to shift inward, creating a whole chain reaction of bad things. Teeth use their neighbors for support, and, with one missing, they start to "fall." As this worsens the bite changes in response to the pressure. This can eventually result in problems with the entire jaw, e.g. TMJ. The surrounding teeth deteriorate and it is just a matter of time before they, too, are lost. Gum disease becomes a serious problem, with the difficulty of treatment increasing as the neglect continues.
There are different types of dentures, but they share their common function. They replace teeth that have become loose or been lost due to bone loss. When bone loss around the roots of teeth is great enough to loosen them or let them fall out, it's time for dentures. Relax. No one enjoys losing their natural teeth, but you can still eat and talk regularly.
The entire mouth is examined and then Dr. Miller or Dr. Caputo will decide which teeth will have to be removed, and which will remain. The loose teeth are then extracted. Dentures are fitted to go over or around whatever teeth remain in the mouth, depending on the type. There is an adjustment period after dentures are placed in the mouth, and it can take some getting used to. But once accustomed to the dentures, all the normal functionality and appearance return and one just carries on as usual. Often implants can be used to further stabilize the dentures.
A dental implant is an option to replace a missing tooth. In this procedure, a small titanium shaft is surgically implanted into the bone and allowed to set. The bone grows around it forming a tight connection, which additionally slows or stops the bone loss that occurs when the root of a natural tooth is missing. Once the implant is firmly set in the mouth, the dentist then works to attach the replacement tooth onto the top of the shaft. This permanent solution has the advantages over bridge work that it does not stress the surrounding teeth for support, and, should the tooth wear out, another can simply be replaced on the shaft.
Implants can also be used as support as part of an implant bridge. This is an alternative to partial dentures, and has several advantages. First, there is no adjustment period to acclimatize the patient who, once the work is done, only feels teeth, not metal supports intruding into the mouth. Second, this slows the bone loss occasioned by missing teeth. Third, there is no discomfort or difficulty in eating. And, best of all, they don't have to be taken out all the time.
We also offer mini dental implants. These implants are about half the diameter of traditional implants are used mainly to stabilize lower dentures. These implants can be placed in one appointment and be immediately used. The cost is 50-70% of standard dental implants. Call for a free consultation.
For more information about our cosmetic dentistry services in New Port Richey, FL or to schedule an appointment, please contact us today at 727-846-7510. We look forward to hearing from you.

Hundreds of people who work in the so-called "gig economy" have gathered to protest outside Britain's Royal Courts of Justice as Uber appealed earlier legal rulings that have broad implications for its business model.
The demonstrators argue San Francisco-based Uber should honor decisions that ruled that the two drivers in the case were "workers" under British law and therefore eligible for minimum wage and paid holidays.
Uber has argued that the men were independent contractors.
Lawyers are closely watching the case not just because of Uber's massive footprint globally but because of the implications for the so-called gig economy, where people work job-to-job with little security and few employment rights.
Anna McCaffrey, an employment lawyer at Taylor Wessing, says the case will likely result in a landmark decision.

Cohabitation Agreements
At Fraser Dawbarns LLP, our team of family lawyers have considerable experience in advising clients on cohabitation agreements and jointly owned property.
Cohabitation Agreements and Jointly Owned Property
It is a commonly held belief that parties that live together for any significant length of time gain 'rights' against their partner and/or their partner's property and assets. People often refer to 'common law' husbands or wives when referring to couples living together.
The actual position is that, in law, there are no automatic rights which are gained by either party when a couple simply live together. Their position in terms of financial provision for the other is entirely different to that of a married couple, regardless of the length of time a couple may live together.
Where there are children from a relationship, there are usually ongoing maintenance obligations when the parents separate, regardless of whether the parents were married or not. In some cases, there may be sufficient assets to provide for some other financial provision for the children. However, it is more commonly the case that the main issue to be resolved where couples have merely lived together, is whether there is a jointly owned property and how that should be divided, or whether one of the parties has contributed sufficiently to property owned by the other to establish what is known as a beneficial interest, meaning that they may have some claim to the property even if they are not named as an owner.
It can come as a shock to clients who have separated from their partner, that they either have no rights against property or assets owned by the other, or where a property is owned in their sole name, that their partner may have accrued some rights in respect of that property. Such claims can often be difficult to determine, which can lead to Court applications and legal fees, which is not ideal for either party.
Arguments over property and other assets can be avoided if the intentions of the couple so far as property, assets and general financial arrangements are concerned, are set out clearly in a written agreement.
It may not be the most romantic thing to talk about with your partner when you are looking at setting up home together, but cohabitation agreements can save a good deal of argument(s) and legal fees if the relationship were to break down in the future in showing what had been intended by the parties if there is a dispute.
Things to consider when moving in together:
- If you are buying a house in whose name should you buy?
- If you buy in your joint names you will need to consider whether you record your respective financial contributions particularly if these are unequal because otherwise you will be deemed to share the equity in the property in equal shares.
- You will need to decide whether you want to hold the property in equal shares and in such a way that upon the death of one of you it automatically passes to the survivor (known as joint tenants) or whether you wish to hold as tenants in common such that your share in the property (whether it be 50% or more or less) can be left by you in a Will to a third party.
- If you open a joint bank account remember that you will both be jointly and severally liable for any overdraft – which means you could be paying back money squandered by your partner on shopping sprees with the girls or nights out with the lads! And you will both have an equal entitlement to any credit balance irrespective of who has paid money into the account.
- Finally, do not forget to make a Will. If you are not married, and die without a Will your Estate will automatically pass to any children that you may have and if you have no children, to your parents and/or siblings and wider family. Your partner will have no interest in your Estate. Only if your partner was financially dependent upon you at the time of your death could they make a claim against your Estate.
It is not only couples who are looking at setting up home together who can enter into cohabitation agreements or living together agreements. Even if a couple have been living together for any length of time, a living together or cohabitation agreement can be drawn up if both parties are happy to enter into it.
In summary, cohabitation or living together agreements, like pre-nuptial or post-nuptial agreements, are not officially recognised in English Law, but are documents which, if drawn up correctly, a Court would take serious note of in the event that there was a dispute between the parties at a later date and, on that basis, are something which all couples living together or intending to live together, should consider.

Hi. This is a bit odd but I'm getting frustrated. When I was fourteen I developed a sore on my labia minora. It never itched, it just hurt when I moved. I had a high fever and was sick for about four days. My mother took me to her doctor that told me it was shingles. When I was sixteen, I developed the same sore but had my doctor treat it. She had told me it could possibly be shingles or herpees. But I just found out today that the culture she took was actually inconclusive. I am now almost eighteen, and that little sore has come back. I called my doctor, but of course she's out of town and I have yet again a different doctor treating it. I go in today and he says he's not really familiar with gynocology... but he thinks I have herpees, not shingles. But I should check it out with a gynocologist to make sure because he's unsure. Great!
So heres the fun part, I have never had sex. I have never had anyone touch, lick, kiss, suck, nibble or probe my vaginal area. Not once. I have never done any of those things to anyone elses genitalia either. Here I am one of the very few virgins I know, and they want to tell me I have genital herpees. Now I've heard that there are rare cases of people contracting genital herpees who have never had sexual interaction. But if there are other things this little sore could be I'd love to know, because I don't want to be the virgin that had an immaculate contraction.

The 2017 state legislative season featured many of the same clinical, economic and legal issues that were prominent in 2016. Proposed changes to the federal health care reform prompted the states to explore state-level solutions to many of the questions facing the future of the health care delivery in the country. Heath system reform, physician payment reform, mergers between health insurers and out-of-network billing legislation were hotly debated in many state capitols.
The staff tracked more than 500 radiology-relevant bills addressed by the state legislatures in 2017. As shown on the legislative calendar, many states had wrapped up this year's legislative activity, and some are meeting in special session to discuss budget-related business. See a state-by-state report powered by StateScape.
Breast Health
Since 2005, a total of 32 states with mandatory disclosure or breast density notification: AL, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DE, HI, IA, IN, KY, LA, MA, MD, MI, MN, MO, NC, ND, NE, NJ, NY, NV, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, TN, TX, VA and VT. In Utah, notification is suggested, and in Maine, radiologists have agreed to provide information without a legislative mandate.
In 2017, governors of Colorado, Iowa, Kentucky and Nebraska signed breast density related notification bills into law. Mississippi's governor signed a bill into law to authorize the department of health to adopt regulations to specify the information to be provided in the written report furnished to patients receiving mammogram services. Additional bills were filed in Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Maine, New Mexico, Washington and West Virginia.
Insurance Coverage for DBT
Support for mandatory private insurance coverage of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) has increased along with the growing weight of evidence demonstrating its ability to detect breast cancer in patients with dense breast tissues. During the 2017 legislative session Arkansas and Maryland were successful in securing coverage for digital breast tomosynthesis. On May 30, Texas House bill 1036 was sent to the governor's office, and the governor has 21 days to sign the bill into law or it will become law without his signature. With the addition of Texas, states with digital breast tomosynthesis coverage will then include AR, CT, IL, MD, NJ, PA and TX. Several states have bills pending on tomosynthesis coverage: MA, NH, NY and OH. Additionally, New Jersey is looking to expand coverage for DBT when screening for breast cancer in women 40 years of age and over and for diagnostic purposes in women of any age.
The California Radiological Society has been actively engaged in educating the community and legislators about benefits of DBT through bifurcated legislative and regulatory campaigns. A National Public Radio (NPR) affiliate in Sacramento produced a segment that focused on both the benefits of DBT in screening and the class action suit filed by a Sacramento woman against Anthem for failure to cover tomosynthesis. CRS Executive Director Robert Achermann was interviewed along with Karen Lindfors, MD, chief of breast imaging at UC Davis. In March of 2017, Anthem Blue Cross of California removed their policy related to denial of DBT as experimental or investigational.
Scope of Practice
Non-physician medical personnel in several states continue to pursue an expansion for scope of practice that would allow them to operate (or supervise use of) X-ray equipment. In particular, registered nurses and nurse practitioners sought to expand the scope of their authorized medical privileges for use and supervision of fluoroscopy in pain management settings. In 2016, a Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) issued a proposal to allow advanced practice nurses at its health care facilities to practice without physician's clinical oversight, regardless of individual state law. More specifically, the proposal sought to allow CNPs and CRNAs to "order, perform, supervise, and interpret … imaging studies." In its comments, the College reiterated concerns for the quality of care administered to the nation's military veterans and urged the VA not to adopt the proposed rule. In its final rule, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) opted not to grant advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) authority to perform, supervise and interpret medical imaging exams. Instead, the VA specified that the APRNs can "order laboratory and imaging studies and integrate the results into clinical decision making."
Certificate of Need
Several states considered legislation that proposed modifications to their existing Certificate of Need regulation of medical business practices in 2017. Existing statutes on Certificate of Need (CON) regulations were put in place to control the growth of hospital infrastructure and medical device acquisition, to lessen proliferation of specialty care centers and to limit inappropriate medical imaging utilization. Opponents of CON seek to make significant changes or to dismantle the CON programs altogether. During the 2017 legislative session, the CON issue was in the spotlight in AK, CT, GA, NC and VA. Additionally, bills on patient referrals and utilization management were considered in six states (Arizona, Connecticut, Maryland, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania).
Network Adequacy and Out-of-Network Payment
In 2017, numerous versions of bills related to out-of-network provider billing, network adequacy, transparency, notification and disclosure or accuracy of provider directories were under consideration in 32 states (AK, AZ, CA, CO, CT, FL, GA, HI, IL, LA, ME, MA, MN, MS, MT, NV, NH, NJ, NM, NC, ND, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, TN, TX, UT, VA, WA and WV.)
The insurance companies are closely tracking the profitability of their product offering and are constantly reevaluating their matrices of in-network providers and hospitals. Physicians and hospitals, seeking to be participating as in-network parties with an insurer, are examining the fairness of contract offerings available to them. Health insurers set and adjust the number of providers in their managed care networks, but they often limit the number of providers within their networks to control costs or maintain affordable premiums. As a result, carriers will create narrow provider networks that may offer beneficiaries authorized access to few specialty providers. Although "narrow" networks are an accepted way of operating a preferred provider organization (PPO) on a set budget, "inadequate"networks result in a cascading effect of problems for both patients and providers.
State-level policymakers have to balance the multifaceted interests of stakeholders and while patients are becoming more educated about their choice of providers within the advertised network, gaps in insurance coverage remain a problem. State legislatures are addressing this issue by seeking to enact laws that ensure that provider networks established in their respective states are "adequate" to provide reasonable access to primary care and specialty physicians for their members.
As health insurers continue to scale down their provider networks, the coalition of hospital based specialty physicians and the AMA are actively campaigning for health plan accountability and are urging state action to strengthen network adequacy rules to establish adequate access to specialty provider care. To secure a balanced solution, the states must be committed to working with all stakeholders in finding solutions that protect the patients from insurance gaps, hold insurers accountable for advertised coverage, and retain appropriate incentives for in-network participation contracts.
RT Licensure and RRA
A registered radiologist assistant (RRA) is an advanced-level radiologic technologist who works under the direct supervision of a radiologist to enhance patient care. Selected chapters of the American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) are working with state radiological societies and the American College of Radiology (ACR) on the radiologist assistant (RA) issue.
Thirty-one states license or recognize the RA through legislation or regulation: AZ, AR, CO, CT, FL, GA, IL, IA, KY, MD, MA, MN, MS, MT, NH, NJ, NM, NY, ND, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, TN, UT, VT, VA, WA, WV and WY. A resolution has been filed in New Jersey in 2017 to urge the State Board of Medical Examiners (BME) to adopt rules and regulations, within one year after the resolution's effective date to allow radiologist assistants to practice in New Jersey.
Bills for radiologic technologist licensure have been filed in AK, ID, KY, MO, OK and TX. The ACR expects more radiologic technologist licensure and RRA bills to be introduced in upcoming 2018 legislative session.
Medical Liability Legislation
Nearly 30 states have statutes placing a limit damages in medical liability actions; however, in several states, the state Constitution explicitly prohibit caps on damages. Opponents challenge existing statutes on caps in almost every legislative session. The AMA and state chapter affiliates are the best resources for information related to medical liability legislation in your state.
Interstate Medical Licensure Compact
Developed by the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB), the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact (IMLC) offers an expedited review of applications filed by physicians who are seeking to obtain licenses in multiple states while preserving individual state licensure requirements. Eighteen states now have laws to join an interstate compact and additional six have introduced legislation to speed up the licensure process. A state-by-state rundown of the status of the FSMB Interstate Medical Licensure Compact is covered in this interactive map.
State Legislative Bill Tracking
The ACR continues its collaboration with StateScape to offer comprehensive automated reports on legislative bills to state chapter leaders. The new vendor offers an "opt-in" feature enabling ACR state affiliates to receive weekly email reports during legislative session that keep them informed about the status of legislation in every state. Please let ACR staff know if you would like to opt in to receive optional legislative notifications for your state.
To assist preparations for next year legislative sessions, ACR staff can help facilitate "guest caller" interaction during quarterly State Government Relations Committee discussions on various legislative issues affecting radiologists across the country. During the calls, ACR chapter members who have questions or are experiencing difficulties with state legislation can communicate with their colleagues to take away important feedback for their chapters' strategy.
If you need further information on working with state legislators and how to get more involved in state legislative affairs with the ACR, please contact Eugenia Brandt, director of state affairs, via email or by phone at 703-715-4398.

These Christmas days before IT are always CRAZY! I mean, it seems that everyone freaks out like it's the end of the world and now they start to make plans to meet and celebrate life and you find yourself in the middle of a "no rest week". So there is the explanation for my delay. Oh I love making and publishing these pics… but with a full time job, friends and more it makes it hard in these cases! Although I try! I don't mean to make something serious out of it. It depends to much on luck and circumstances for me to pursue it as a "life money maker hobby".
Anyway. Here is some experimentation. Not only I followed Marcel into his favorite-life-long-love band concert! It was something! First managing to be on the closest and then trying to enjoy while being disabled 😂 And I wanted to make pics! Of course not with my big one but with the one I love and I don't fear of breaking! Also it makes every image unpredictable. I can mess it up while taking and also developing! In that case it might have been both 😛 I tried to use another set of chemicals not knowing. So that was what I could get from it 😏 I am not unsatisfied. Every time I do analog I am never disappointed! I love the surprise! With digital you have sometimes an image in mind that you can check and repeat until you get it. With this you have an idea while taking it, but not being immediate you tend to forget your purpose. So you are always surprised and most of the time happy! The concert was something! Tumultuous, full of life and I could see Marcel very happy and a lot of other people!! ❤
Die Toten Hosen, es war sehr geil!
Danke! Love, T.

U2 How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb Promo Tour
HTDAAB Promo Tour
: Empire Fulton Ferry State Park - New York, New York, USA
U2 returns to soulful form on 'Atomic Bomb'(published on 2004-11-22)
Source: The Boston Globe
By Steve Morse, Globe Staff | November 23, 2004
Frankly, it's been a while since U2 made a great album. The band rolled out a series of iconic records in the '80s, including ''The Joshua Tree," which was the final word on spiritual, conscience-driven music at the time. But in the '90s, the group tried to outpace its own fame with a baffling array of self-absorbed discs, pursuing a postmodern, dance-club hipster path that was trendy but smacked of dilettante interlopers sacrificing their soul to stay ahead of an impossibly commercial curve.
Those days seem to be over. The new U2 album, ''How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb," out today, is the band's most personal record since ''The Joshua Tree." It's not only a joy to see the group rekindle its shimmering '80s guitar-pop sound (with original producer Steve Lillywhite back for many tracks), it's encouraging to know that the music comes so strongly from the gut once again, without the latest techno-experimental production techniques.
The album comes off like the mature next step from ''The Joshua Tree," minus all those nervy, self-indulgent detours of such '90s discs as ''Zooropa" and ''Pop." Signs of U2's revival were evident on its last studio album, ''All That You Can't Leave Behind" (2000), which included the hit single ''Beautiful Day." But ''Atomic Bomb" is an even better disc. Guitarist the Edge plays a more dominant role -- he appears more comfortable reviving his bright guitar swirls -- and there's a renewed soulfulness from singer Bono, whose best songs involve his reactions to the death of his father, Bob Hewson, in 2001.
The most profound track on this ennobling album is ''Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own," which the band performed at the funeral. The tune, in which Bono hits a glorious falsetto, is sweetly reminiscent of U2's ballad ''One" and represents his catharsis: ''You're the reason I sing, you're the reason why the opera is in me."
And he adds these son-to-father words: ''Listen to me now, I need to let you know, you don't have to go it alone."
''One Step Closer" also addresses that relationship. Enhanced by guitar and pedal-steel atmospherics, Bono sings about what lies in store at the end with the kind of openheartedness that we once took for granted from him. The idea for the lyrics came from Noel Gallagher of Oasis, who is given a special thanks on the sleeve.
On ''All Because of You," which could be about a parent or lover or some kind of higher power, Larry Mullen Jr. sets an invigorating drum pattern, and Bono does the rest: ''I'm alive, I'm being born," he belts as only he can, edging close to pretension but never going over the line.
There's also a superb love song in ''A Man and a Woman," an R&B-flavored track with the Edge playing some pretty Spanish-style acoustic guitar and Bono vulnerably addressing a lover. It sounds like the Triple A radio hit on the record -- and again testifies to the acceptance of adulthood that makes this such a compelling album.
U2 has stopped trying to target the youth market with a Dorian Gray-type willfulness -- except, of course, in the leadoff track, ''Vertigo," which was licensed for an iPod commercial in a blatant attempt to stay au courant. Still, it's a great song, regardless of the mild stench of selling out.
Predictably Bono, who, some feared, wouldn't apply himself to this album because he's so busy with global concerns such as third-world debt and AIDS in Africa, does indulge in some sloganeering on ''Love and Peace or Else." The song builds tension through the Edge's industrial-sounding guitar, while Bono urges, ''lay down your guns."
But Bono also displays a sense of humor on the punningly titled but stately ''Original of the Species," which seems to borrow a chapter from John Lennon with its irreverent verse: ''Some things you shouldn't get too good at -- like smiling, crying, and celebrity/Some people got way too much confidence, baby."
Deep down, Bono is still a spiritual pilgrim, and other numbers attest to that. ''City of Blinding Lights" has a similar feel to the band's classic ''I Will Follow." And the concluding ''Yahweh" (a Hebrew name for God) has the prayerful words: ''Take this soul and make it sing." It's the perfect line for this nakedly honest, uplifting album.
