This is a rush transcript from "Hannity," December 14, 2011. This copy may not be in its final form and may be updated.
SEAN HANNITY, HOST: Ann Coulter made headlines for the comments that she made on this show last night about who she believes is the most conservative candidate in the Republican field. Listen to this.
ANN COULTER, COLUMNIST: I think the two most conservative candidates -- and look, people you're talking about the brokered convention. You know, knock it off, Republicans. These are our candidates. We have seen them.
HANNITY: I agree with that.
COULTER: The two most conservative candidates who are still standing now are Michele Bachmann and Mitt Romney.
Of the available candidates, Romney is by far the most conservative, tied with Michele Bachmann. And he is -- he has a proven ability to win in a state like Massachusetts.
HANNITY: All right, but the question remains, who do the voters think is the most conservative candidate? Joining me now to weigh in on all of this, author of the New York Times number one bestseller, "Culture of Corruption," Michelle Malkin is here. How are you?
MICHELE MALKIN, "CULTURE OF CORRUPTION": Good. How are you, Sean?
HANNITY: You know, I'm just flooding through my e-mails here. I got to tell you, there is resentment building. The resentment is building against establishment people telling conservatives who they ought to be voting for. The (INAUDIBLE) editorial is not going over well in people that I know. I want to get your reaction.
MALKIN: Well, to answer your question about Ann Coulter's description of Mitt Romney as conservative, there are a lot of words to describe Mitt Romney. But honestly, conservative has never been at the top of the list.
I think that the frustration from the grass roots and the Tea Party activists has been in watching people parade around in Halloween costumes all year long, pretending to be something they aren't, never have been, in order to win office.
The entire reason we have a Tea Party revolution over the last couple of years was not simply as a reaction to the big government impulses and corruption of the Obama administration. But also about the ideological corruption of Beltway Republicans.
As for National Review, I have an immense amount of respect for the staff there, for people who have been in the fight for conservatism and conservative policies, for a long, long time. They deserve respect.
I also think it's a little ridiculous to start calling people establishment who have been outside the establishment for a long time. Even if you are in Washington, you may not necessarily be of Washington.
We can all disagree about these candidates. I am not on anyone's team and I think that puts us, you and I, Sean, in a unique position. The only team --
HANNITY: I'm telling you what I'm reading and people are telling me is that, you know what? We know the strengths and weaknesses of the candidates. I've asked Romney about Romneycare. I've asked Romney about changing positions. I've asked Gingrich about Paul Ryan. I've asked him about the Nancy Pelosi issue. I've asked about his personal life. We've asked if he could be disciplined. I've asked all these questions to these guys.
And I think these questions at some point have been asked to death. It seems to me that there is so much scrutiny on so many conservatives that go on for so long, the Democrats get a pass. Then the fear begins to build. "You know what? They're too flawed. This one's too flawed." And the most flawed person in this race this year is going to be Barack Obama, who has the worst record of any president in modern history.
And it gets a little frustrating to me to see this in-fighting and this nitpicking on all of these guys.
MALKIN: Well, I understand your frustration, but I certainly don't think it's nitpicking to look at each and every one of these candidates --
HANNITY: I'm not saying that. Michelle, you are misunderstanding me.
MALKIN: No, I'm not.
HANNITY: There comes a point.
MALKIN: I think you're frustrated, Sean. I understand that.
HANNITY: They all have strengths and weaknesses, that's what I'm saying.
MALKIN: Right. And I am saying I think it's important to dig up Mitt Romney's statements when he describes himself as a progressive several years ago.
It's just as important to talk about Newt Gingrich's actions that bespeak of a very troublesome progressivism and in some cases very uncontrolled sense of narcissism.
Look, the Tea Party -- who is the Tea Party and who is the establishment? The fact is that although National Review and a lot of Washington Republicans and conservatives don't like Newt Gingrich, a lot of Tea Party conservatives don't either. They have not forgiven him for the NY-23 misjudgment and the smearing that he did of grassroots conservatives who opposed his attempt to try --
HANNITY: Let me see if I can put this in another way.
MALKIN: A big labor RHINO in New York.
HANNITY: All right, you know what? I will concede. There is not the perfect candidate, but this is our slate of candidates. At the end of the day, Michelle, I've looked at all of their strengths, all of their weaknesses and I think all of these candidates are infinitely better than the disaster we have in Washington today.
And it seems that there is a culture, to use your term, culture of corruption, there's a culture among Republicans and conservatives where they are not happy until they eat their own, and spit them out, destroy each other and say they won't vote for the other one.
I think at some point they have to realize there is one winner in this. It's not going to be the establishment deciding. It's going to be the people in this country that are Republican that vote in the primary that decide, and frankly, I don't think anybody's one endorsement is going to matter that much.
MALKIN: I certainly agree with that. I think it's all common sense that you are talking about. On the other hand, this is the primary process. This is nothing new here. There is nothing unprecedented about the Republican candidates going after each other.
HANNITY: I agree. It's healthy.
MALKIN: In this clawing fight for the general election battle. It is healthy.
HANNITY: It's healthy to a point, but then it gets to the point where it's unhealthy and counterproductive. And I think that the words of Republicans are going to come back in the general campaign used by Obama.
MALKIN: Well, I think that the unhealthiest thing would be to whitewash these flaws.
MALKIN: I'm not talking about whitewashing anything.
MALKIN: And circle the wagons. I think it would also be unhealthy to pretend that these candidates are something that they are not, and I'm talking about each and every one of them.
HANNITY: All right. Let them pummel each other and forget who the real person that needs to be defeated here. I think there comes a point where it's a fine line distinction and I think we'll make a big mistake -- but I got to run. Good to see you.
MALKIN: You bet.
HANNITY: Appreciate it.

A battery Charger in Subnautica is a device used to charge dead batteries. The battery charger can charge up to 4 batteries at a time. The Battery charger charges the battery by taking energy from Seabase or Cyclops. There is so many places where you can search for it. But mostly it is found in Wrecks.
The battery charger charges with a speed of 9 units in a minute so it takes approx 11 minutes and 5 seconds to fully charge a battery.
How to Find Battery Charger in Subnautica
To get the battery Charger you must have 2 battery charger fragments as soon as you got 2 fragments you can easily make a battery charger with that. The best place to search for fragments is Wrecks and they are a lot in numbers and can be found in the deep ocean near your spawn locations. coordinated of Battery charger fragments are listed below.
Battery Charger Fragments
Battery Charger fragments will be found hopefully in almost wrecks. Search for Wrecks around.
You must have a Torch and remember to check for every corner as Battery Fragments are hidden in most conditions.
Remember to have a High Capacity O2 Tank because All the wrecks location is below 100m and you need adequate time to find out the Fragments hiding inside the wreck.
Location of Battery Charger Fragments in Subnautica
Battery Charger Fragments can be found in Wrecks, Degasi Seabases, Grassy Plateaus, and Jellyshroom cave. You must have 2 battery charger fragments to make a battery charger. You must go to checkout Battery charger fragments in the Wrecks, as they are near and most wrecks are not too deep. You must have a High Capacity O2 tank and I would say to search for Smaller wrecks as they are much safe to find the Fragments and get out from them as soon as before you got O2 lost.
#1. Battery Charger Fragments from Degasi Seabase. Degasi Seabase is the oldest survivor-made sea base which has now been split into 3 sea bases and is one of the places where you can search for fragments of the battery chargers.
Degasi Seabase can be found in the center and the top of the Floating Mountain, Deep Grand Reef, Jellyshroo Cave. Where you can find a battery charger.
Degasi Seabase are found in the coordinates
- -800,80,-1055
- -760,15,-1115
- -705,80,-1165
named Base 1, Base 1a, Base 1b respectively.
#2. I would rather strongly recommend going with finding in Wrecks. You must know the game is full of wrecks in Every biome and Large Wrecks are even a lot dangerous as they are too big that in your oxygen time it will be difficult for you to scan and get fragments to get out of the Wrecks.
From the Giant coral tubes as much I have found is that there are two Wrecks a smaller one is approx 600metres in the South and the easiest one to get the Frags another one is in the west direction approx 600metres but it is a big one.
Before to any Wrecks especially take Care to get the High Capacity Tank and one Torch to find the Fragments.
Coordinates of Wrecks Where Battery charger Fragments are found
Location of battery charger fragments in
- -388,-108,612
- -28,-107,-615
- -403,-132,650
- -432,-90,-268
These are the current location Coordinates where you can search for Fragments as soon as you got two of them you are ready to make a battery charger.
This was all about how to find a battery charger all related guides about that.

Fermi-LAT: An Amazing Pulsar Finding Machine
Paul Ray
U.S. Naval Research Laboratory
After three years of operation, the Fermi-LAT has crossed a major
milestone, detecting its 100th gamma-ray pulsar. The pulsars are divided
into 3 approximately equal categories: young radio pulsars, millisecond
pulsars, and young pulsars detected from blind searches of the gamma-ray
data. I will describe the techniques that enabled these discoveries and
discuss some of the implications of this wide variety of pulsars. Finally,
I will speculate on the prospects for even more exciting results, such
as the first radio-quiet millisecond pulsar.

There's no denying that the COVID–19 pandemic has affected customer's behavior. With the present pandemic crisis, Email marketing has undergone rapid transformation alike to our personal and professional work-life balance.
COVID-19 has severely impacted various countries and their populations. The marketing world also hasn't been spared: while some COVID-proof businesses have thrived, while others have to close down, or drastically reduce budgets, and go into a survival mode as a result of the restrictions imposed.
With lockdowns and imposed restrictions slowly easing globally, the hotel and hospitality industry is trying to pick up gradually. People are keen to get out after being stuck indoors for months because of COVID concerns – as long as they have safe stays and adequate protective measures in place." However, marketers have to be prepared with strong marketing strategies to give travelers' peace of mind and enable them to trust your hotel's services during this difficult period.
Consider these trends to ensure your 2021 Email Marketing strategy is COVID-19 ready:
1. Have a Legal and Verified Mailing List
Collecting emails for your email list should be the first step in your email marketing plan. After all, if you don't have a list, you won't be able to submit your marketing materials to anyone.
No matter how tempting it might be, don't buy ready-made lists. Instead, you can make use of the data from your previous visitors' information. Installing an opt-in form on your website will also help you collect new email addresses.
2. Talk about ways how Customers can save money
Offering discounts and updates about an upcoming event is great, but how about showing various ways on how your customers can save money if they book an accommodation with you. This results in better customer expectations and ensures your mails haven't gone unnoticed. By providing hotel deals that are appealing enough to pass by. For example, your subject line says, "Get 4 nights stay at the price of 3!". Or, "Book online and get a free meal."
3. Send Personalized Emails
Studies reveal, the travel industry has a cart abandonment rate of 81%, which is higher than the retail industry. The study also discovered that if you re-engage with the customer within 60 minutes, you have a fair chance of reclaiming their booking.
Also the best deals may be overlooked if the recipients do not feel the offered deals relevant to their needs. Do not let your customers feel that you're not just tossing deals at them at random. Rather personalize all the emails you send to show them that you care about them.
There are many Email marketing platforms that let you add names to individual emails without having to go through each one individually, completely automated. All that you have to do is provide the platform with the information you want to have included in the email. You can hyper-personalize your emails even more by segmenting your list into more specific categories like demographics, favorite room types, geographic location, and so on.
4. Automated Emails with Smart Triggers
Personalized emails have to be strategically written and constructed. However, it isn't a bad idea to plan pre-formatted emails and automate their sending on your platform All you have to do now is define the transactional or operational features that could trigger off.
For example, as soon as your guest checks in, you can send an email with a booklet containing all of your hotel's available amenities and upcoming events. You may also remind them to leave a review, or even better, build user-generated content by sharing their stay on social media with an email that is sent when they check out.
5. Tracking your Email Marketing ROI
Finally, keep track of the email marketing campaigns and see what works and what doesn't. Although your email opening rates are significant, it's your email conversion rates that matter the most. You must know how many people have clicked on your call-to-action buttons and, as a result, booking a hotel room.
With detailed analytics, you can monitor all aspects of your email marketing activities, such as:
- Weekly how many new subscribers did you add to your mailing list?
- What devices do your subscribers use to open your newsletters?
- How many people opened or clicked on your last newsletter?
- Which all subject lines resulted in the most clicks?
- Which of your deals resulted in the most conversions?
With Google Analytics, you can also see more revenue-focused metrics, such as the total number of conversions produced, average revenue per email sent, or the return on any given email campaign.
And if you want to improve your campaigns even more (and get more people to book rooms with you), check analytics on these factors:
- A/B testing: test your subject lines, email copy to see which of them get better click-through and open rates
- Monitor growth with comprehensive reports and graphs
- Optimize the delivery of your newsletters based on the time zone or actions of your subscribers.
Enticing your existing and new customers is a difficult task, but with the right email marketing strategy, you can definitely crack it.

You know that cool feature in your browser that lets you search for a piece of text really fast. If not try it right now: press Control+F or Command+F on a mac and a box will pop up somewhere, prompting you to type a piece of text you're searching for. You can type full words, single characters, numbers and your browser will show you all instances of your query, if any. This is accomplished through regular expressions or regex for short.
Regular expressions are text strings used to find text in a file. In Java and many more programming languages, you can go a step further and use regex to validate, replace, insert, or split strings matching your pattern. A simple concept, but the appearance of regex syntax can be very daunting to newcomers.
Fear not: you just have to take it bit by bit. First let's look at some examples of regex symbols and example matches. Note that the below tables make up a very small subset of all the available regex symbols and possible combinations.
|Sample Match
|one or more
|See below
|See below
|zero or more
|See below
|See below
|any character except the new line (n) character
|top, tip, tap
|escape the following symbol
|zero or more characters not including the new line character (n)
|calligraphy, cartography
|Sample Match
|a single digit
|I am d years old
|I am 3 years old
|one or more digits
|I moved to NY in d+
|I moved to NY in 1994
|a single word character
|zero or more word characters
|My name is w*
|My name is Johnny
Now let's create a very simple Java program to make use of our new learned skill. This program will read a contract from an external text (.txt) file and replace any instance of "[name]" with your name and print out the signed contract. The text file looks like this:
I, [name], agree to be a disciple of Java and practice Java everyday.
And here's our source code. I have included a mini lesson on loading external files, written as comments.
[code]import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class ContractRegex {
private String contractData;
public ContractRegex() {
this.contractData = loadContract();
// This method will load the contract.txt
// from our resources module
// and will return it as a string for
// us to work with in Java
private String loadContract(){
// Every Java object has a getClass() method that
// returns the runtime class of the object (Class type).
// We then use the Class object to get its ClassLoader.
ClassLoader classLoader = this.getClass().getClassLoader();
// We can use a ClassLoader object to load a number of things
// but in our case we want to load a file from our resources folder.
// This is a designated folder for any outside files we use in our application.
// These can be images, videos, executables, e.t.c.
// getResource will return a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) of our text file.
// [LINK=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_Resource_Locator]URLs[/LINK] are
// unique location names of files on a system.
// You use URLs all the time. For example, http://www.google.com
// The URL object can return a File object of our resource with getFile().
File file = new File(classLoader.getResource("contract.txt").getFile());
// StringBuilders are used to create mutable versions of strings.
// That means we can append new strings to 'result'.
// We use this because normal [LINK=http://stackoverflow.com/a/8798424/1212854]String objects are immutable[/LINK]
// 'result' will hold our final scanned data.
// Please note that StringBuilders are not Strings
StringBuilder result = new StringBuilder("");
// This is a try-catch block that tries to accomplish a task
// and catches an error if the operation in the try section failed.
// Here, we try to create a new Scanner object.
// A Scanner is used to parse text.
// We pass a File into the scanner to read the text from the File.
// A Scanner is part of the Input-Output (I/O) model.
// I/O has to do with information put into the computer from
// peripherals such as the keyboard and information printed out
// for example, text printed out to screen.
// A lot of issues can arise from I/O streams, so we
// catch all I/O errors using exceptions in our try-catch block.
// Exceptions are errors in Java. There are many built in exceptions.
// You can also create your own and "throw" it whenever. That's what
// 'Scanner scanner = new Scanner(file)' does. It throws an Exception
// and here we catch it and print the error message associated with
// the Exception with printStackTrace().
try(Scanner scanner = new Scanner(file)){
// A while loop performs the operation in the block
// until the condition (scanner.hasNextLine()) is false.
// A Scanner reads in text line by line.
// scanner.hasNextLine() returns a boolean (true/false)
// depending on if the File has text at the end of the scanned line
// While we have a line to scan, we create a temporary
// String object to hold our scanned line.
// We retrieve the scanned line with scanner.nextLine().
// Because we used a StringBuilder and not a String to hold
// our final scanned data, we can easily add new strings to the
// end of 'result' by calling append(stringToAppend).
// 'n' represents a new line. A new line is created when you
// press Enter in a text editor.
String line = scanner.nextLine();
// Think of close() as turning the running water tap off.
// We would be wasting water and risking an overflow if we did
// not turn it off. Also, we know no one will use it in the future.
// You wouldn't leave your tap running in anticipation of another
// user, would you?
}catch(IOException e){
// A StringBuilder object is not a string, but
// we can get a String object from it.
return result.toString();
public String getContractData() {
return contractData;
public static void main(String[] args) {
String signedContract = new ContractRegex().getContractData().replaceAll("\[name\]", "Zippy Jenkins");
The regular expression used is very simple. We want to replace not just "name" but the braces that surround it. Braces in regex already have a special meaning so we need to escape it.
Braces, on their own, are used to specify one or more character inside them to be matched. For example [AEIOU] will match A, E, I, O, or U.
We escape the braces using '' in Java. Using only ']' as opposed to '\]' will result in an error because '' and '[' have a significant meaning in regex.
The replacement string, "Zippy Jenkins" will take the place of [name] in our contract and the output will look like this:
[code]I, Zippy Jenkins, agree to be a disciple of Java and practice Java everyday.[/code]
That's it! Using replaceAll(String regex, String replacement), you can quickly replace all instances of the matching strings of the contract data with your replacement string. The replaceAll() method is one out of many ways to utilize regex in Java. You can create much more complex patterns, insert text, validate, and split strings using the Java regex tools.

Do you ever feel like you spend too much time on your phone?
Well guess what? Ironic as it is, there's an app for that. The iPhone app Moment (in beta for Android) will break your phone addiction.
Simply download the app, give it permission to track your usage, and tell it the max amount of time you want to spend on your phone (say, 40 minutes per day). Then… forget about it: Moment runs in the background and pops up occasionally to tell you how close you're getting to your cap and alerts you if you've gone over.
At the end of the week you can check out your daily roundups to see how you did overall.
While Moment will cost you $5 in the App Store, we're giving away six free copies to Netted subscribers who email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Ironic? Yes. Freeing? Definitely.
Do you ever feel like you spend too much time on your phone?

The Wooga Squad Officially Confirms BTS V's Adorable Role In Their Friend Group
Fans have been eagerly awaiting the first episode of Disney+'s new series, In the SOOP: Friendcation, featuring the iconic Wooga Squad.
The Wooga Squad comprises BTS's V, Park Seo Joon, Park Hyung Sik, Choi Woo Shik, and Peakboy. Fans have loved watching the group's dynamics unfold over the years, with V first meeting Park Seo Joon and Park Hyung Sik on the set of the K-Drama Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth.
Through all of their adorable, supportive interactions, it's been easy for fans to see how affectionately the Wooga Squad treats their maknae, V.

Even in just the first trailer for the show, fans could already tell how much the rest of the Wooga Squad loves V. With V likely being the reason the series was filmed.
The trailer also shows V opening up, proving his trust and care for his friends as he explains, "My walls are down when I'm with you guys."
In the first episode of the long-awaited series, fans were especially endeared when the Wooga Squad described V's role in their friend group, pointing out that not only is V significantly younger, but that he can be rather mischievous.
Taehyungie is the youngest son with an age gap who doesn't listen.
And as if to prove the accuracy of the description, the members spent the episode proving just how adorable they find their mischievous maknae.

Despite some potential problems with widespread use of Gmail's "Confidential Mode," the new ephemeral messaging function can be easily managed from an information governance perspective.
At first glance, the launch of Gmail's new ephemeral messaging feature known as "Confidential Mode," which is included in a batch of user interface updates to the service, may cause a fair amount of apprehension among e-discovery and information governance managers.
All emails sent using the confidential mode, for instance, are erased after a designated time set by the user. Until they are erased, they are stored directly on Google's servers instead of on a proprietary company-owned server. And even if a Gmail user sends an email under confidential mode to a recipient who is using a different email client, the recipient can only access that email via a website link that still connects to Google's servers.
Such a restricted, time-sensitive way of communication can run counter to a company's data retention efforts, or put them in legal risk during pretrial discovery. But apprehension around the tool may be naive. After all, such technology is nothing new, and much of the risk it poses can be vastly limited by how it is used in the first place.
Andy Wilson, CEO of e-discovery company Logikcull, explained that the any risk with Gmail's new updates is "totally dependent on how these businesses enable and police these types of features and functionality."
Confidential model, for example, can be managed at a high level for those using the corporate Gmail applications. "It's an IT administrative feature" for enterprises, Wilson noted. "The users themselves cannot turn it on" without first being allowed to by a manager with administrative Gmail privileges.
It is also likely that many companies will have a relatively easy time managing such ephemeral messaging functions given that many have used them in the past. "It's not just Gmail. This technology is not new. There are plugins that have existed for years that allow you to do all the same stuff," Wilson said..
Indeed, Michael Powell, solutions analyst at ZL Technologies, noted that such tools have been commonly used for years by large corporations, government officials and financial institutions like banks to manage sensitive or confidential information and trade secrets.

In the fall, I wanted to get a group of friends together for an 'Alice in Wonderland' themed photo shoot. Scheduling and budgeting issues pushed my idea into the new year and then to the end of March.
My friend Scotia was booked to do makeup but had her own scheduling conflict at the last minute. She suggested Ashley as a possible replacement and after some back-and-forth, we locked in the deal!
What a good choice! I was so happy to have Ashley be part of my day!
Professionally, Ashley has been doing makeup for about six years. After high school, she actually attended Lakehead University and completed the nursing program. Ashley's a nurse!
But makeup and makeup artistry was Ashley's true passion. She has spent years experimenting, watching makeup tutorial videos, and amassing a huge collection of tools and products. What Ashley can do with a palette and brush is truly amazing.
Ashley transforming Jay into the mad hatter:
Ashley transforming Shelley into the Cheshire Cat:
After my transformation into Alice:
For the past three years Ashley has been based out of the Curl Up & Dye hair salon.
There she can give you the look you need, whether it's for a costume, a fancy party, headshots, or a wedding.
In some cases, Ashley can also come meet you and your group at a different location, like a few weeks ago when she met me and my group at The Chanterelle on Park Ave.
In her spare time, Ashley enjoys spending time with her partner, tickling her three cats, traveling, fashion, and coming up with amazing new looks containing bright colours and lots of sparkle!
It was so fun to spend a few hours with Ashley and watch her work; she was so accommodating to our needs and took such joy in sharing her creativity with us.
Ashley's gifts and talents are quite obvious and it's going to be fun to follow her career. I imagine she's going to have a pretty busy future! I also imagine I'll be hiring her again soon!

text: Jan 11, 20094 min readJan 2009 - Cheryl StraffonSun, Moon and Standing StonesThere are not many people who know more about the earth mysteries of ancient Cornwall than Cheryl Straffon - and two years ago there was a goodly turnout to hear her give a presentation on this, her specialist subject. However, at the start of our eighth season, over forty TDs, friends and members of the public ventured out bravely, on a day that had started inauspiciously with snow and ice, to hear her latest offering. They were not to be disappointed.This illustrated talk took us far beyond her adopted homeland - to Ireland, the Hebrides, Brittany - and even into outer space . . . but I digress.The essence of this seminar was to describe her experience of the interaction of the movement of the Sun and the Moon on the megalithic monuments of the Celtic world. It has long been recognised that the pre-Roman communities of the Atlantic Arc had developed advanced astronomical awareness. Although Stonehenge might represent the zenith of this activity, there are countless equally remarkable structures that display precise alignments of the significant stations of both the Sun and the Moon - from the massive bunkers of the Boyne Valley in Ireland to the curiously-constructed stone circles of north east Scotland, from the gracefully gothic standing stones of Brittany to carefully crafted sacred spaces of West Cornwall.There are the well-known and, in this day of webcams and live internet links, heavily publicised astro-archaeological events at places such as New Grange or Maes Howe - where you can watch the midsummer sunrise or the midwinter moonset in real time in the comfort of your cosy apartment in Sydney or Seattle. Cheryl's approach is very different; she gets out to live the experience for herself - in the dark, in the cold, in the real world. It is at this point that her work interfaces directly with the parallel world of the dowser. Many of these ancient places have been brought into being to display, at least in part and perhaps only to an initiated few, the wonder of the neighbouring heavenly bodies at their most extreme. People like ourselves have dowsed at solar and lunar eclipses and felt the sensory changes that they wring. However, it doesn't have to be the celestial fireworks of a total eclipse that give rise to spiritual sensations. The moon, captured briefly at its rare standstill in the crisp Gallic sky, or the sun bursting through the horizon on a brittle midsummer's morning, can also have a profound effect in the realms of subtle energy. Cheryl challenged us to try it out for ourselves. Dowsers have a distinct advantage over the visual astronomer. While the early morning sunrise or the mid-winter moonset are, as often as not, literally lost in the mist - for the dowser this is not a catastrophe. Experience has shown very clearly that the energetic effects of planetary alignments are undimmed by the absence of a visual stimulus - that the impact of a solar eclipse can be studied as clearly in a dismal, rain-sodden field in Orkney as in the marvellous majesty of the scorching Sahara. Similarly, the impact of an astronomical event on the special energy of the sacred site should be just as detectable, just as measurable, in the dense fog or the driving rain, as in the bright sunshine - even if it is not quite so pleasant for the dowser. It has long been acknowledged that dowsing results are affected by the time of the day, the phase of the moon and the passing of the seasons. Yet, there are few studies that detail these effects.What Cheryl's personal experience suggests is that the energy of highly charged sites could react more strongly on particular dates and times, but it's up to us as dowsers to investigate.From the places that Cheryl has visited, it is clear that ancient cultures registered, and captured in stone, the passing of time. Doubtless this was to assist with the planting of seeds or the harvesting of crops. It must also have helped a pre-scientific society to make some sense of the cycles of the natural world and the dramatic events that sometimes overwhelmed their worldview. It may also have been that the beautifully fashioned enclosures and timeless temples played another role - preparing the more sensitive members of the clan for the appointed time that the earth energies changed and when a brief internal dialogue with the spirit of the earth brought enlightenment. There is some scientific evidence for this change of subtle sensation. At the Easter Aquorthies stone circle in Aberdeenshire, measurements of radiation present around the major standstill moonset indicate a clear spike of energy activity. There are other studies of this type, but many are partial or anecdotal. Does the energy at sacred sites peak at sunrise or sunset, moonrise or moonset, on certain days? Some evidence implies that the actual burst of sensory activity can be a few hours, or even a few days, prior to the actual event. Cheryl noted that calendars have changed over the years and that, in some cases, account needs to be taken of when sites were constructed with reference to contemporary time-counting systems. It also has to be acknowledged that the movement of the sun and the moon though space, relative to the earth, over the millennia will have affected the accuracy of these petrified diaries. Cheryl even noted that one site, when corrected for the night sky of its era, accurately marked the midsummer rising of the Pleiades, the Seven Sisters star cluster that has fascinated mankind since the dawn of time.In a land of legends, Cheryl Straffon has become something of a legend in her own right. Her periodic publication Meyn Mamvro, the journal of the Cornwall Earth Mysteries Group, has a cult following - and it now also includes the activities and the unfolding discoveries of the dowsing groups of Cornwall.Many thanks, as ever, to all those who helped to get the hall organised and to all those who helped with the refreshments. From the string of questions asked, the animated conversations over tea and the number of books sold, I am sure we will be only too pleased to welcome Cheryl back before too long.

text: Notes: From the wonderful photos on the cover to the AM radio style presentation of the music within, this is a classic. The songs and advertisements blend into a seamless mixture of tongue in cheek satire and typical Who intensity. The latter is shown in the wild drumming of Mr. Moon on "I Can See for Miles". While there aren't many of the Who standards on this one, all fans of the lads should give this disc a good listening. And you'll even hear a plug for Rotosound Strings (...hold your group together with...).

TRSO: Information Gathering
To understand what is needed and build the vision of your organization, you will need to gather some information on existing systems, users, and future needs. You cannot know too much about the needs you are trying to fulfill. So take some time in this and be sure someone qualified and capable of overseeing the effort is in charge. This work should be led by an experienced systems analyst.
Good organizations are built with a solid understanding of what the needs are and should be flexible enough to accommodate anticipated growth. I suggest that you break these into present, near term, and future. Present would include all existing needs, those soon to exist from systems purchased but not yet delivered, and needs from funds currently budgeted but not yet spent on purchasing new technology requiring support (current fiscal year). Near term are those requirements expected the next fiscal year. Future needs are those beyond the next fiscal year (FY) that are anticipated based on current demands and demand growth as well as new initiatives to add systems and extend capabilities to existing systems (i.e. extend or expand scope of existing systems). I also recommend that the future needs be planned for at least 4 years beyond the current fiscal year.
If an inventory does not exist, perform one. You will find this information invaluable not only for developing your organization, but also for such things as budget development, planning new projects, determining impact of new systems, determining impact of staffing changes on support, etc. You will gather information that will be useful in determining a system's needs, its interfaces, who uses it, what it is used for and when it is needed. If never previously accomplished, this may take some time initially, but is relatively simple to maintain thereafter. A good time to update the inventory information is prior to the start of budget planning. Some important information to gather is provided in the table below.
Solicit from all managers information on what they will be buying in the current FY. Also, determine what their plans for support are (i.e. are they purchasing vendor support). Be sure to get in the loop on all purchases of new systems and software so you will have advance warning of what is coming regardless of what you are told by managers. The best of plans change and you do not want to be caught unaware. This is best implemented as an approval on all contracts and purchases of technology related systems, components and services.
Future needs point to how the organization must grow and, thus, where it needs flexibility and special attention. Anticipating support growth will allow for preparing the appropriate plans and organization to support this need. Solicit from all managers what their specific purchasing plans are and where they believe growth in technology assets or services will be. If your district does a detailed breakdown of goals to the manager level from Board/Superintendent Goals, then be sure you analyze each division manager's goals along with your own to determine where new systems, automation, services, and support augmentation would be useful then discuss your findings with appropriate managers. Be sure district and manager priorities are understood and assigned to any projects or initiatives resulting from your analysis of goals. When reviewing needs, including division manager goals, it is best to get inputs from a variety of information system (IS) professionals for their perspectives. So draft an approach to meeting the needs and goals and be sure to let everyone in the IS department review pertinent aspects of the proposals.

There are two ways to look at the video below, and they are both right. It shows the remains of a soldier and his K-9 coming home for the last time from Afghanistan. The circumstances of their deaths are unknown.
One Way
If you can get through the video with dry eyes, you may not be human, or may not at least deserve the title. Someone replaced your heart with dry meat. Despite the sappy music, the expression of utter emotion packed into a mundane activity – unloading "cargo" from an airplane – is raw and undeniable and good. Each set of remains is brought from overseas into Dover, Delaware, where the U.S. military operates its largest mortuary and receiving facility. Each container is flag-draped and accompanied by military members, so the soldier is never alone on the long trip off the battlefield.
At Dover, s/he is cleaned up if possible for an open casket viewing by the family, and the body dressed in uniform with all decorations displayed. At that point, commercial air transport brings the deceased back to his or her home, in this case, Atlanta. Each serviceperson is escorted on the last flight by uniformed military personnel. The process is designed to show respect, and it does. It is only fitting and appropriate that it does so.
Delta Airlines' staff at Atlanta have taken things further, organizing their own an honor guard, to add that much more to a final step.
Another Way
No. no, the other way has nothing to do with not having this ceremony, or not honoring those who lost their lives.
This "other way" of looking at all this is to stop turning healthy young men and women into "remains" for causes of unclear purposes. After coming into office promising to end America's wars in Iraq and Afghanistan as begun with the darkest of hearts by his predecessor George W. Bush, President Barack Obama will leave eight years later having accomplished neither task. After overseeing an "end" to what some now call Iraq War 2.0 in 2011, Obama reinserted American forces back into that country in 2014 for Iraq War 3.0. There is no end in sight.
Now, in Afghanistan, conditions are such that top U.S. military commanders, who only a few months ago were planning to pull the last American troops out of Afghanistan by year's end, are now discussing a commitment that could keep thousands of troops in the country for decades, an "enduring presence."
Bring them home, Mr. President. Alive.

Did you know that Google and Facebook have the power to throw elections?
Robert Epstein, a Harvard Ph.D. in psychology, has long studied Big Tech and its ability to swing massive numbers of votes.
In conjunction with the apolitical, nonpartisan American Institute of Behavioral Research and Technology, Epstein has watched carefully Big Tech's involvement with U.S. elections since 2016.
Advertisement - story continues below
You may recall what happened in the election for 2016. That was the year Donald Trump upset Hillary Clinton. Trump didn't have tens of millions of Twitter followers then. He didn't get any help from Big Tech that year. But Hillary did. At least 6 million votes – a combination of illegal ballots and manipulated data. But it still wasn't enough for Hillary.
Then came the next election – in 2018. Epstein estimated that Google and Facebook were in a position to turn about 12 million votes due to their overwhelming pro-Democrat bias demonstrated in their virtual monopoly dominance of search and social media platforms. That was the year Nancy Pelosi became speaker of the House.
TRENDING: Don't let the 'old man' in!
But 2016 and 2018 were probably rigged elections, according to Epstein's projections.
In his team's study, they found Google can shift opinions of undecided voters by up to 43.4% by way of the search results it offers them.
Advertisement - story continues below
The researchers conclude that by using this method of manipulation, search engines can shift a "50/50 split among people who are undecided on an issue to a 90/10 split without people's awareness and without leaving a paper trail for authorities to follow."
If that's not bad enough, Google is making a fortune doing this kind of work. The Epstein team's research also notes discrepancies with Google's current search suggestions, particularly with regard to its commercial interests. For example, entering "G" into the search bar in Google will instantly provide users with suggestions to click on search terms about other Google products – Gmail, Google Maps, Google Drive and others. They also found a recurring pattern of major brands being favored in Google search suggestions if they were financially linked to Google. The top search suggestions for "a" is Amazon – Google's top client on Google Adwords, the company's digital advertising service. The top search suggestion for "t" is Target – Google's third-biggest advertising client.
According to the research summary, "The same pattern occurs for other major advertisers on Google, among them Best Buy, Home Depot, Lowe's and Zillow."
Given that Google has amassed more than 90% of all search traffic, you can imagine the billions of dollars it gets as a result, which also translates into massive political donations – almost entirely to Democrats.
Look – elections have consequences. Even dirty, scammy, crooked elections have consequences! And most Americans understand that's what we had in 2020. Joe Biden stole it – or someone smart enough to steal it for him did. There are estimates as to how many phony votes it took to turn it from Trump. It must have been a very large number; Trump was wildly popular.

But you're seeing how hard this is to prove.
If you suspect foul play in an election, you're portrayed either as a sore loser, unpatriotic or an insurrectionist.
But If Republicans lose the next vote, we lose what may well be our last chance to protect the integrity of all our elections in the future. In fact, we'd likely lose everything – including our most basic rights to free speech, freedom of the press and freedom of religion, institutions both Google and Facebook already threaten.
I know there are many potential existential threats facing America right now – China, radical Islam, rampant immorality and lawlessness, even electro-magnetic pulse attacks. But, for my money, the gravest and most imminent threat we face is the Media-Technology Complex. It's nothing to laugh about.
Advertisement - story continues below
Once America loses free elections, free speech, freedom of the press and freedom of religion, all is lost – our very foundations of liberty. Believe me, we're close. And they could all be lost if we don't establish election integrity – RIGHT NOW!
I don't know about you, but I'm not giving up. And I don't believe God will forsake us if we beseech Him to intervene miraculously and powerfully on our behalf.
Pray with me earnestly – like you have never prayed before. We are facing powerful opposition unparalleled in my lifetime.
And, please, continue your generous financial support to WND in these perilous times of major assault.

Committee Moves to Block Ohio Power Grab
"The road to eventual passage of Right to Work in Ohio won't be easy," said Mr. Hood. "But the payoff will be huge.
Big Labor Reminds Majority Leader Reid He Must Deliver on S.560
Neither the "Card-Check" Forced Unionism Bill's extreme unpopularity with the public nor the obvious reluctance of several members of his own caucus on Capitol Hill to vote for this legislation can excuse Majority Leader Harry Reid from his obligation to ram it through the U.S. Senate.
That's the message Big Labor is sending to Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) as the second session of the 111th U.S. Congress gets underway this month.
Last year, Mr. Reid tried early in the session to move the "card-check" bill, but, after Americans opposed to the measure inundated Senate offices with phone calls and mail, he backed off.
Mr. Reid then vowed the Senate would take up the "card-check" bill, S.560, as soon as it had fulfilled President Obama's request of adopting legislation reworking America's $2.5 trillion-a-year health-care system.
And on Christmas Eve, the Senate rubber-stamped H.R. 3590, Mr. Reid's version of ObamaCare, in a straight party-line vote.
Furthermore, Mr. Reid's U.S. House counterpart, Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), has made it clear she expects the Senate to act on S.560 before the House votes on H.R.1409, the lower chamber's version of the "card-check" scheme.
Therefore, top union bosses contend, this winter Mr. Reid has no choice but to schedule a vote on S.560 or a very similar bill. And he also needs to find a way, as he did with the highly unpopular H.R.3590, to get a gussied-up S.560 adopted through legislative arm-twisting and horse-trading.
"Anything short of that," warned Washington Post columnist and union-boss confidante Harold Meyerson in a column late last month, and Big Labor's "anger will take a toll on the Democrats' electoral prospects" in 2010.
'Plan B' Would Advance S.560's Pro-Forced Unionism Ends Through Alternative Means
The undisguised aim of S.560 is to help Big Labor force millions of additional workers, union members and nonmembers alike, to accept a union as their "exclusive" (monopoly) bargaining agent in their dealings with their employer.
A major provision in this legislation, cynically mislabeled by proponents as the "Employee Free Choice Act," would accomplish this goal by effectively ending secret-ballot elections in union organizing campaigns.
However, this "card-check" provision is so flagrantly anti-worker and unpopular with the public that S.560 lead sponsor Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) has apparently concluded that the bill in its current form may be too difficult to get through the Senate.
That's why Mr. Harkin and other Big Labor senators have worked behind the scenes to concoct a less obviously sinister "Plan B" that would accomplish the same forced-unionism objectives of S.560 through somewhat different means.
This Is No Time For Right to Work Supporters To Let Their Guard Down
Top union bosses are reluctantly supportive of "Plan B" because they understand it will promote forced unionism, to virtually the same extent as S.560, by rewriting workplace election rules to tilt them even more steeply in union organizers' favor.
"When Big Labor bosses who collectively pour well over a billion dollars, mostly forced-dues money, into federal election campaigns every two years demand something, Harry Reid will do everything he can to give it to them," warned National Right to Work Committee Vice President Matthew Leen.
"This winter will be very dangerous for freedom-loving citizens.
"Andy Stern, chief of the Service Employees International Union and probably the most powerful union boss in America today, is openly cooperating with Harry Reid and Tom Harkin in their efforts to concoct a 'Plan B' that can get through the Senate.
"Only ever-intensifying heat from pro-Right to Work senators can convince the same Senate fence sitters who ultimately helped Mr. Reid ram through ObamaCare, senators like Blanche Lincoln [D-Ark.] and Byron Dorgan [D-N.D.], not to follow the same routine with S.560 or 'Plan B.'
"I urge Right to Work members and supporters in all 50 states, especially constituents of 'swing' votes like Ms. Lincoln and Mr. Dorgan, to keep contacting their senators through the Capitol Hill switchboard, 202-224-3121.
"Let them know you want and expect them to oppose S.560 and any similar pro-forced unionism legislation on all votes."
"The road to eventual passage of Right to Work in Ohio won't be easy," said Mr. Hood. "But the payoff will be huge.
By comparison, union political action committees (PACs) collectively reported to the FEC a relatively paltry $54.7 million in expenditures during the 2021-22 election cycle.
Patella employees' ordeal shows how union officials trap workers in unions they oppose, yet Biden NLRB is moving to make union decertification even harder

He may not have a top hat and a band of Oompa-Loompas, but Chef Kriss Harvey will take you to a land of pure imagination. Holding the title of one of America's Top 10 Pastry Chefs, Harvey leads a sweet life to say the least. Harvey leads a team of chefs dedicated to making intricate and delicate chocolates from andSons Chocolatiers, located in Los Angeles, Calif.
andSons was created by two brothers who describe themselves as being "born into fine chocolate." Phil and Marc Covitz were inspired by their mother, Aviva, who ran highly successful Teuscher Chocolates & Cafe in Beverly Hills for more than 30 years. In 2019, andSons officially opened their doors.
Harvey prides himself on consistency and innovation in both his chocolates and the equipment that helps him create them. What makes his job easier? His Cambro food storage products. While you might be able to guess most of the products, there's likely one that will surprise you.
Sheet pan racks are a staple in every kitchen, but Harvey utilizes the Ultimate Sheet Pan Rack to increase the food safety in his space. While metal racks eventually rust, corrode or flake, the Ultimate Sheet Pan Rack remains rust-free for a lifetime. Designed from the same durable material as Camshelving Elements Series®, the Ultimate Sheet Pan Rack is lightweight, maneuverable and easy to clean.
The most precious items in Harvey's kitchen are the ingredients. In order to keep them fresh and free from contamination, Harvey only trusts Cambro. He particularly likes using the CamSquares and Camwear Food Boxes because of their shape. When using square, you are immediately provided with 33 percent better space usage than if you were using round containers.
No, Harvey and his team aren't working on a new dessert pizza, they use our Pizza Dough Boxes for storage. Harvey likes them because they hold a good volume but are still easy to carry. He uses Pizza Dough Boxes to store their dragées, shelf stable caramel bonbons and molds.
"I just love those dough boxes, they're just so sturdy. The lids fit perfectly; they never warp. They're just amazing," said Harvey. Although the coronavirus pandemic has been tough on many businesses, andSons was one of the lucky ones. Many people were stuck at home and wanted to treat themselves to a bit of luxury that they couldn't visit in-person. As a result, andSons' online orders skyrocketed as Americans across the country shipped themselves a something to make their days a little sweeter.

In celebration of Earth Day, we hosted 'Climate Decade: Halving Global Emissions by 2030', a webinar where members of RE100 and EV100 discusssed how businesses are stepping up on climate action.
Amy Davidsen, Executive Director, North America at The Climate Group was joined by Elysa Hammond, SVP of Environmental Stewardship Clif Bar & Company; Kevin Rabinovitch, Global VP Sustainability, Mars; and Karol Gobczynski, Head of Climate & Energy, Ingka Group (IKEA) who provided insights from their experience in implementing climate-friendly systems in each of their companies.
With just under 200 virtual attendees, including representatives from The Estee Lauder Company, H&M Group, McKinsey & Company, Mahindra Group, Nike, and Global Citizen, we are strengthened in the knowledge that we can still move forward on climate action during this uncertain and difficult time.
Here is what we've learned:
As made clear by the panelists, while the COVID-19 pandemic has a significant impact on people, communities, and businesses around the world, companies remain committed to climate action as part of a long-term business strategy.
Karol Gobczynski said: "When it comes to climate, we know that we cannot slow down and we need to think long term. Especially during this recovery package time, it is important to put in climate action to create a more fair and inclusive society and think long term when we are making decisions about the recovery."
Kevin Rabinovitch shared: "We are all doing all kinds of things that we thought were unimaginable. I think this idea of recalibrating what is possible, although we have unfortunately been forced into it by a tragedy, the opportunity is to take it as a bit of a wakeup call that we don't necessarily have to make slow, creeping, incremental progress on things that we care about and we know climate is something that we all could and should care about."
One of the biggest takeaways from the discussion was the reminder that collaboration and cooperation is not just helpful in addressing the climate crisis, but critical as climate consequences pose as a global threat.
Elysa Hammond said: "When I first heard about [The Climate Group's programs], I thought we're a small company relative to big companies, what value would we bring to RE100 or EV100? But when I talked to The Climate Group team and also thought about our mission being to build the movement, I've been so happy that we have joined. It has provided an international platform and community to be part of. We're learning from companies like IKEA and some of the amazing members. I feel like this is a very tangible way to be a part of the movement."
Karol Gobczynski shared how IKEA approaches collaboration, "For us, working together with others is a crucial part of moving this agenda further to create much more inclusive and helpful regulations that are enabling more people to be part of this transition."
Companies must shift mindsets in order to truly meet the demands of climate science.
Kevin Rabinovitch was consistently helpful in articulating this: "The 'RE' part [of RE100] is great but the '100' is the more powerful part. When you're challenged to deliver 100%, that kicks you out of an incremental mindset. It makes you say, 'I need a different strategy.' The fact that our targets are calling on 100% renewable energy, that meant we had to go offsite and if not for that 100% target, we never would have thought about doing 200MW wind farms in Texas and things like that. There is real power in that 100."
As for next steps in the climate action agenda:
Karol Gobczynski expressed: "Where we see a unique opportunity is about this onsite renewable energy generation. Where we can turn many buildings, homes, offices into renewable energy power stations which can mobilize significant investment into the renewable energy sector if there are regulations which are enabling and powering individuals to become renewable energy consumers. Business at the end is 'find the need, fuel the need."
Kevin Rabinovitch said: "Areas we're looking at next, we've done many if not all of the countries where we have a large footprint. We're looking into working with consortiums with some of our suppliers where we work together with them and collectively have enough volume to get the best economics on a deal."
What we learned from this dynamic discussion was summed up by Elysa Hammond: "[Climate action] is staying on everyone's to-do list, some things might slow down but we're committed for the long term and connecting the dots between clean air, climate action, and people's health really sparks a new way of thinking. And I think what people realize is we need to think in a transformative way, incremental is not going to do the job."
