Skip to comments.For Conservatives who seriously want to kick some RINO butt...
Posted on 05/10/2009 1:08:11 AM PDT by Ron C.
Warning this is a long and windy post not recommended for the semi-conservative or casual reader.
Lately Ive ran across many a post and comment on FR that made me decide to again post about politics - for the sake of many of the newer Freepers and for this nations sake. This post by Jim Robinson is corollary to what follows. Read it Jim defines what I call a complete conservative.
Now, the first item of business - the definition of the 'Republican Party,' a.k.a., the GOP. A few members of Congress, a couple of state governors and a few past candidates for high office generally prompt the greatest amount of disparagement of the GOP on this website. Their voting screw-ups and lackluster comments are often used to denigrate 'the GOP' in general and often followed by statements such as, "Screw the GOP, Ill never vote Republican again." That insults many, and proves that writers know little to nothing about party maintenance, or have any clue as their own responsibility for it. Yet, it is literally the voting public at large that determines what a political party becomes its strengths and its weaknesses are a direct result of the level of public oversight and involvement in all aspects of party function and activity at the local level. Ignore that, and you get ever-poorer performance at the top on par with the poorer performance of the citizenry in general at the bottom (local level.)
First - what the GOP is not. It is not defined by, nor do sitting members of Congress solely constitute the GOP yet that is the most common perception. Nor is the RNC, with a mere 165 members 'the GOP.' (All of them count in the national total, yet they are a distinct minority, very much outnumbered and at the eventual certain mercy of the total. Oh, sure they are a powerful minority but ultimately irrelevant in the face of the majority.)
"The party," - all political parties are made up solely of elected and appointed members within each State of the Union, along with a few chartered party club members which are by charter are allowed to join the party, pay dues, and allowed to vote in state and local party business. In California, the most populous state, there are only about 3,000 dues-paying party members qualified to vote in party business meetings and in State Party Conventions. The huge majority of GOP members in every state are elected district party representatives in local district 'central committees' aka, 'wards' in eastern states. Of course, any elected state GOP officeholder is a member, as are any alternates or those they are allowed to appoint as members of the state party. In smaller States, the number is much less. An average per state would be perhaps 1,000 party members in the more numerous smaller states.
There is no published figure of what the 'total GOP party members nationally' is, nor is there such a figure for the 'Democratic' Party. The entirety of the GOP is not more than 62,000 members nationally.
So, lump all the RINOs you can think of that currently serve in state and national government together, and add up the figure. Lets say you know a lot of RINOs in Congress, and in State legislatures and you can come up with as many as 100 of them. That would be .19% of total GOP membership hardly representative of the huge majority at the local level, most of them quite conservative.
The second item of business here is wrapped up in what it means to be 'conservative.' Youll not find a better definition of it than what Jim Robinson had to say in that link above. But I would go quite a bit further than Jim did particularly in using that word 'aggressively.'
If you are under attack and faltering, and the GOP is and if you really want to aggressively alter the makeup of the GOP you become part of it. I did, and I have made a big difference (admittedly in the somewhat past) by being a key force in routing RINOs from State party leadership positions in droves. If you are really conservative, you join the war where it counts. Either true conservatives help keep the party conservative or you fail the final test of conservatism itself. That failure became ever greater after Ronald Reagan was elected to the point that today less than .01 percent of GOP affiliated voters ever darken the doors of GOP meetings in their own neighborhood and many that do are not conservative. That low number is a measure of the knowledge of the pubic in general, and of Conservatism wisdom in particular. Yet that door is THE most critical place where conservatives can help ensure the level of conservatism within the party. It seemed that once Reagan was in office, conservatives felt that their presence in the system was no longer needed. Also distressing has been the steep decline in the number of the 'faithful' which should understand being 'watchmen on the wall' far better than those without wisdom. Sadly, today the level of Church involvement has declined to its lowest point in US history yet, in stark comparison, during the Founding Era ministers were literally among those at the forefront of political activity.
Third - one thing needs to be understood clearly. Conservatives are extremely unlikely to ever prosper outside of the Republican Party. They must either fight to keep it pure (that is, socialism / socialist free) at the local level or haul up the white flag of surrender. Third parties have done nothing to prosper conservatism, throughout this nations history. In fact, the few that have claimed conservatism (and largely arent) have repeatedly succeeded in doing nothing more than electing Democrats in the districts where third party candidates drew 1 to 2% of the vote the margin by which the Democrat won. When any do gain office, they generally prove far less than conservative.
In fact the largest 'third party' vote ever recorded in US history was that of the 'Progressive Party' under Theodore Roosevelt, which drew 27.4% of the vote. But, note well - in the early 1900s Democrats were the conservatives, while Republicans were the first to drift off into progressive socialist politics. Unfortunately for us today, early 1900s 'progressive' Republicans radically altered our political process, by co-opting political power to the top of the political ladder from the local level where it had resided for over 130 years. That single action helped send the party into the wilderness for near 50 years, and while it was there Democrats turned socialist and the Republican Party slowly became conservative.
Ultimately the degree of conservative success rests with conservatives themselves. And, if youre like me youre a working stiff with a job somewhere or youre working your buns off keeping a home together, caring for your family. You dont have a lot of time or a lot of money to sink into political activities, so if youre going to do anything you need to know how to be most effective with what little time you have. And believe me, you can be very effective, if you know what to do and that is, walk into the real political arena nearest to you at the local level, and figuratively, put on your political brass knuckles.
It is probably less than twenty minutes away from the front door of most Freepers. And, quite likely, you can gain a voting seat (without election) simply by showing up once or twice a month. (That is, if the local district committee is a few people shy of their allotted number of seats filled.) But, even if all the seats are filled, they all need alternates to sit in for them when they cannot attend for some reason. So take a friend or family member with you. It is worth noting here that quite often only one or two people will actually go to the trouble of getting the few signatures that it takes to get on the ballot for the Central Committee in a California district. When that happens, they are elected by default. The position and their names dont even appear on the ballot! Then, THEY get to appoint the remaining people to bring the district committee to its allotted number. That is a stark difference from public oversight or 'conservative' attention to what makes up the party they choose to affiliate with. It is such apathy and indifference that has produced the squishy nature of the GOP in the largest and most populous states, and has led to ever greater pollution in even the most conservative states.
For over two decades, I voted many times per month at the local district level, and at the county level. And, as a dues paying elected or appointed member of the state GOP, I voted often at all state conventions. I worked hard to purge liberals from any power in the state party, and I became highly effective at it. Ask RINO Pete Wilson how effective I have been. Ask Arianna Huffington, and her millionaire switch-hitting ex-husband Michael (with a very obvious case of aids) who both came lurking around the CA GOP, claiming that they were staunch Republicans. (Luckily, I knew about Ariannas deranged past long before she came in the door thanks to early use of the then brand new Internet.) Neither one got far, and both eventually left the GOP after being exposed for what they both were.
Bottom line, if Freepers really hope to see a GOP that harks back to conservative principles, and want to aggressively pursue such a goal - the only process that is effective begins at the most numerous level of the elected party a few minutes away from your home. If we cannot be guardians at these most important gates to the political arena forget about it at the state and national level. It is within this arena that conservatives can effectively block RINOs from moving higher up the political ladder by identifying them through personal contact, listening to their conversation, finding out what they believe and would like to see come to pass in future legislation. It is in this arena that you can identify the best and help promote them toward higher office and easily stop the worst of the worst.
The Reagan Revolution was initially energized by thousands of conservatives that had begun with Barry Goldwater a few years prior. In those days, back-yard political gatherings attracted literally thousands of local teens and college youth and their parents all of whom provided an energy level beyond any seen prior or since.
Conservatives could easily make that all happen once again if enough of them decide they really want to become aggressive at making a political difference. Absent such an effort conservatives will have only themselves, and their personal lack of effort to blame. Samuel Landon, one of our Founding Fathers, said it best. "On the people, therefore, of these United-States it depends whether wise men, or fools, good or bad men, shall govern them; whether they shall have righteous laws, a faithful administration of government, and permanent good order, peace, and liberty; or, on the contrary, feel insupportable burdens, and see all their affairs run to confusion and ruin."
Samuel Langdon is also quite famous for the following quote, from the same sermon. (spelling here is as in the original.)
"From year to year be careful in the choice of your representatives, and all the higher powers of government. Fix your eyes upon men of good understanding, and known honesty; men of knowledge, improved by experience; men who fear God, and hate covetousness; who love truth and righteousness, and sincerely wish the public welfare. Beware of such as are cunning rather than wise; who prefer their own interest to every thing; whose judgment is partial, or fickle; and whom you would not willingly trust with your own private interests. When meetings are called for the choice of your rulers, do not carelessly neglect them, or give your votes with indifference, just as any party may persuade, or a sordid treat tempt you; but act with serious deliberation and judgment, as in a most important matter, and let the faithful of the land serve you. Let not men openly irreligious and immoral become your legislators; for how can you expect good laws to be made by men who have no fear of God before their eyes, and who boldly trample on the authority of his commands? And will not the example of their impiety and immorality defeat the efficacy of the best laws which can be made in favour of religion and virtue? If the legislative body are corrupt, you will soon have bad men for counsellors, corrupt judges, unqualified justices, and officers in every department who will dishonor their stations; the consequence of which will be murmurs and complaints from every quarter."
Sorry my rant is so long - but, unfortunately in some ways it is not nearly long enough. For those that have never really entered the political arena, there is a world of things you should know, and will have to learn on your own, and from others that have gone before you. I can not say it more bluntly than this - if you do not go, learn, and fight - then who will?
May God bless you...
Thanks for the post Ron C. I look forward to reading it.
~grin~ - yeah, I know... you have to have the time... 8^)
Use your ping list - and point some of the 'regulars' here - that need to know what they perhaps don't know, or know a bit, but perhaps believe they have no power to change anything.
Marked for a later read, it looks like it could be very good... already took my sleeping pill........ fading ........ feeling light headed..... kinda funny.... kinda drunk.... slipping... drifting... fuzzy head.... I'm gone...... zzzzzzzzzz ZZZZZZZZZZ
Later Bttt
The US Constitution is in many ways shorter, and far more to the point.
Please do not invoke Jims good name upon that which would take longer to read. I skimed it to be sure, absolute snozze fest.
Ron C. fire us up, or tell us something that we don't already know. and be concise and short about it.
I'd say there were equal numbers in both parties. But the Dems were actively trying to purge Conservatives as long ago as the 1890s, under Socialists like IL Gov. John Altgeld (probably the most radical Governor in that state's history - and so far to the left that the ostensible "Progressive" Theodore Roosevelt lambasted him from the right, effectively calling him a Parisian Communist) and their attempt to take over the party with William Jennings Bryan. They wanted to make sure Grover Cleveland types never would become President again under the Dem banner. None ever did.
Well reasoned. The GOP is the best available vehicle for conservative political activism. Whining and carping from the sidelines gains nothing.
It only takes a spark to get a fire going!
Amen Brother. Someone needs to get Glenn "the Clown" Beck to understand that.
Hes trying his hardest to use Fox News to start up a new Libertarian push.
At first I was enjoying watching him but his constant harping on how republicans are bad and just as bad as the left has done my head in now.
Then he had that nut on some time ago from 20/20 who thnks that we should eat bears and their numbers will go up.
Then he has another nut from Vegas on somettimes who is just as bad
I believe these problems have their roots within the very concept of Conservatism. Among the definitions of a "conservative" are being cautious, avoiding excess, and resisting change.
All of these are positive qualities if not taken to a ridiculous extreme, however the Left has effectively demonized those of us who are disinclined to change how things work if there is no good reason for doing so. The axiom "If it works, don't fix it" is an appropriate saying for true Conservatives.
Admiral Yamamoto quite correctly predicted after the attack on Pearl Harbor that, "...all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve". Conservatives seem to be very slow to take action, but once they do, they tend to follow through until the objective is achieved.
Warnings were apparent before the attack on Pearl Harbor, just as we were aware that the World Trade Center was a prime target for terrorists.
The key question we must ask ourselves relative to these historical attacks is "why didn't we do something about it beforehand?" Again, remember what key trait defines Conservatism - we tend not to change unless there is good cause, and this cautious nature lends itself easily to a rejection of perceived alarmism.
We had numerous warnings before the election, yet Conservatives were ill-prepared to counter Obama supporters. Those of us who did take a vocal and active stand against his radical socialism were labeled as unenlightened Extremists.
History repeats itself, and eventually Conservatives will stand together in defiance of these attacks on our Liberties, but I fear it may take far too much time for a "sleeping giant" reaction. Ron C. is absolutely correct in that we MUST take action now at the local level to effect change that is necessary. We see it, and we know our liberties are systematically being removed. As repugnant as it may seem to us, we all must adopt tactics from the Left in order to save our nation.
Grassroots efforts such as involvement in local politics is how the liberals began this current assault. We must do the same and not look towards any one individual to save our freedoms.
There it is in a nutshell. We are not interested in an actual strategy and actual directions on how to work towards a goal. No, we do not want to go to meetings. We do not want to do actual work. We want to be fired up.
Then we can sit here at our keyboards and smolder. Perhaps, on really good days, we may begin to smoke a little and sometimes even begin to glow.
But work? That's crazy talk.
Let's all have a huge pity-party. Whine & moan about how the Republican party has betrayed us all you want, but remember one thing:
Don't like where the country is headed? Then get off yer duff!!!
Just as sure as there is no god, conservatives will never unite under one banner again.
And you would think all the wind found on Free Republic would produce a Santa Barbara wildfire across the nation. Who is putting it out?
Glenn "the Clown" Beck doesn't really have a clue about politics, he is a bit of a latter day Huey Long. His real value is that he gets under the bonnett of both sides, especially the Olberdorf, Madcow, Bill O' & Hannity bloviators.
If you look at party indentification of voters, self declared 'Republicans' have been dropping like stone for several years.
I fear the "GOP" brand is damaged in the eyes of voters and citizens do not want to self-indentify with it.
Moderates: Moderate Republicans are now more socially/fiscally liberal. Identify and voted for Obama. "Lets give him a chance." "Reaganism is dead". "Lets open the borders".
Conservatives: Conservative Republicans are socially/fiscally conservative and can not tolerate what the GOP leadership has done to the Republican party of the past several years and do not identify as Republicans anymore but 'independents'.
1) Conservatives must kick liberal/moderate Republican leadership OUT of the party. The race to out Democrat - Democrats simply does not work and never will. Being moderate means never taking a stand on any issue lest you offend someone. That is not leadership.
2) Set in writing a core set of party principles similar to wildly effective and long forgotten by our leadership "Contract with America".
3) Don't tolerate RINO's in the party leadership because you see where that gets you 'Spector, Snowe, Jeffords, etc).
It has always amazed me that the "Conservative" talking pundits of the airwaves have never mentioned this. If 0.01%of the energy wasted by listening to talk radio went into committee work with their opinions, it would make a far greater difference to the country than listening to pundits preaching to the choir.
After reading some of the posts on this thread, the logic of some is that the GOP cannot be made into a conservative vehicle because some are against us.
But we should believe that by creating a third party, nobody will be against us.....ignoring the fact that the remnants of the OP and Dems would crush that third party jointly.
Just because a person understands and loves conservatism does not always mean they have a brain that is useful for politics.
Some people are just meant to vote while others are meant to lead.
Sure it may not win, but it will send a clear message to the Beltway GOP elitists that neither will they without the Conservative base. That message will be: Join or Die!
If the majority of voters aren't fed up with Obama and DNC-flavored socialism by 2010 and 2012, the republic as we knew it may be at an end anyway.
saving for later
Yeah and you think you can just apologize and it will all be okay? you can say what you like and as long as you want with no regard for our feeeelings? Like an apology is some kind of license to abuuuse us? What kind of monster ARE you???
Months after "Obama" reveals his FIRST name (1) he reveals the date he will detonate the bomb. (2)
(1) "Obama" reveals his FIRST name, October 2008
(2) Using the anti-bible format. But the question is: will his masters still have enough time to do it?
Our political system and our government are illegitimate. The GOP is controlled by the same elite political class that controls the Democrat party. . "Working within the system" is counterproductive. It diverts resources; it enables the ruling elites to co-opt the forces for change. Freedom will only come from non-violent revolution. Be prepared for the violence and hatred that the political elites will use to protect their hegemony.
Obama's election proves that most Americans value the illusion of comfort over the opportunity to achieve freedom. Don't drown yourself trying to rescue those who have chosen the illusion. They will grab you and try to make your drown along with them.
The question: How do we manage a non-violent revolution that restores freedom to those who are willing to sacrifice for it? The answer is not in the realm of politics.
Mainstream media, pop culture, and consumerism have replaced religion as the opiate of the masses. Freedom and comfort cannot co-exist. Comfort is an illusion, the snake oil that politicians sell, the price of which is your freedom.
You say you want freedom? Turn off your television. Stop buying things.
What Ron C. is saying is: Become the establishment!
The real danger to conservatism and the country comes from the leftist Democrats, and not from RINOs or moderate Democrats. Focus on the real enemy!
The biggest problem, in a general sense (and on a macro level) is that conservatives tend to be : "keep the government out of our lives". Working in the party is seen, subconsciously, as being part of a political scene that is, for the most part, distasteful.
Again, generally, liberals/democrats are far less worried about embarrassing themselves or being aggressive at the local level or even in the culture.
We have let them take over the Media, the schools and now the government....EVEN THOUGH they are no more than half the population (and really more like 30%) The 40% who are clueless or in the middle could be talked into electing Vince McMahon President (though even he would better than Obama).
I would also say a very overlooked aspect of defining the culture or the political perception is commenting on message boards, talking locally, or on radio or continuously making comments in non political places that redefine the perception.
Eventually the Dems portrayal of Bush, the war, neo-cons etc etc took hold. It took 5-6 years, but it worked.
The drip drip drip of referring to Obama as a socialist, a Neo-Com or Neo Socialist or the like, and coming up with a few catchy representations and repeating them over and over everywhere on the internet, even in comment sections of forums has an effect over time.
Not in a spam way, but in a response.
But until the base gets motivated enough to turn into activists, we are on a slow drift. Bottom line.
How many of us are? I'll bet a very small minority on FR attend meetings or run for/are a delegate in their state GOP. I'd love to be proved wrong, but I don't think I am or the GOP wouldn't be run by weak-kneed towers of jello.
Why is this in Breaking News?
AMEN, don-o!
Which is why we need to WORK! Hence this thread. You aren't seeing the forest for the trees. Welcome to FR.
I always enjoy your posts. You are an asset to FR.
Enemy? We're all Americans. Democrats (especially these days) are taking us down the the very wrong path but they still think they're doing the right thing. Misguided and wrong but they're still Americans.
2006 and 2008 were disasters for Republicans and Conservatives mostly because too many stayed home or voted third party. That gave us what we have today so how did it help?
Motivated conservatives can sway the mushy "independents" and "moderates." That is what Reagan did. Last election the mushy middle bought the hopey-changey drivel. Couple that with all-or-nothing conservatives staying home or voting third party and here we are. That's the FACT.
Why does your signup say 2008? And even if you were, does that give your opinion more weight.
Get over yourself.
If one wants conservative government established, then one obviously needs many conservatives becoming the establishment.
I always thought my posts were kind of lame. I have touble writing down my thoughts. Much easier to speak what I'm thinking.
What I meant by that is how the republicans became the "establishment" once they attained the majority in both houses. You know how conservatives go to DC and come home "moderates"?
Of course that's what you meant, now why don't you address what the poster meant. More cosnervatives becoming part of "the establishment!" I would think means that more real conservatives should become part of the establishment and not just the phoney politicians who claim to be conservative.

Baltimore County two years ago joined Baltimore City and Montgomery, Prince George's, Charles and Somerset counties as Maryland jurisdictions where minorities outnumber white students in public schools, although the development was little noticed at the time.
In those districts and others, the trend is sparking intensive efforts to shape children from all backgrounds into eager, high-achieving students. And that's just what is going on in Howard, school officials say.
"Howard County is a magnet for kids from all over the world. We have students from 77 different countries," most speaking different languages, said Sydney L. Cousin, Howard's school superintendent and the first African-American to hold the job. "We have to think differently. This is not 1989."

UPDATE: Arkansas has confirmed that Davis is expected to miss the season with a left ankle injury Arkansas fans were horrified when they heard the reports of Knile Davis' lower leg injury on Thursday. Offensive coordinator Garric McGee and the rest of the Razorbacks refused to speak with the media about the severity of the injury, citing team policy for Bobby Petrino to be the only one to speak on the topic of player injuries. CBSSports.com's Jimmy Carter reports that the Davis' injury is "major" and he will miss "significant" time.

The Regatta Mystery (1939)
by Agatha Christie
No current Talk conversations about this book.
The Regatta Mystery - Parker Pyne: Mr Parker Pyne catches a diamond thief during regatta festivities at Dartmouth Harbour.
The Mystery of the Baghdad Chest - Poirot: M. Poirot figures out how a dead body found its way into the titular chest in the midst of a dance party
How Does Your Garden Grow? - Poirot: M. Poirot finds the clue to the murder of an older woman who has written him for help just prior to her death
Problem at Pollensa Bay - Mr. Pyne: During his vacation, Parker Pyne solves a mother's dislike for her son's fiancee before an act of violence can occur
Yellow Iris - Poirot: Poirot follows an anonymous phone call to a restaurant table laden with the favourite flower of a woman who died mysteriously four years before. This story was expanded and made into the full-length mystery Sparkling Cyanide, featuring Colonel Race instead of Poirot
Miss Marple Tells a Story - Marple: Miss Marple recalls solving (without leaving her own chair) a seemingly impossible murder
The Dream - Poirot: An eccentric millionaire tells Poirot of a troubling dream in which he kills himself – and is found dead a week later
In a Glass Darkly - I have not read
Problem at Sea - Poirot: a rich woman is found dead in her cabin on a luxury ship off the shore of Alexandria. The story concludes with Poirot saying: "I do not approve of murder."
Some individual stories are good, but this collection irritates me because it is a reshuffling of stories which have appeared in other collections.
While I prefer Agatha Christie's longer works, it's sometimes nice just have a sampling. My favorite of the short stories are the ones with Parker Pyne who in one story reluctantly admits that his first name is Christopher. Pyne is the opposite of fastidious and sometimes pompous M. Poirot or the ever congenial Miss Marple. No, he's in his line of work for the money and makes no apologies for it.
Contains a mixture of Poirot, Parker Pyne, and Miss Marple stories, with the rather different in tone supernatural addition of "In a Glass Darkly." The audiobook is read by Hugh Fraser, who plays Captain Hastings in the BBC Poirot series, which adds a nice touch of authenticity.
A fine collection of Christie's short work. I enjoyed this, in particular, seeing old favorites once again go a-sleuthing.

First Time Bottoming - DrakeRock
Model: Dan DecklinDan Decklin responded to my casting call for two reasons, he wanted some cash, and he wanted to bottom but wasn't sure how to go about finding someone to fuck him! I helped him on both accounts.
Not only was it the first time he had cock in his ass, it's the first time he had another guy's cum in his mouth, and you get to watch me fill his mouth.
This video walks you through everything including his first enema, first entry, me pounding his ass a little too hard a little too fast.
I wanted him to cum while I was fucking him, but ultimately telling him that I wanted him to cum in my mouth while fingering his ass is what made him cum.
If you like watching cute straight college guys getting fucked for the first time, this one is for you.

Last updated June 7, 2014. Created on January 20, 2012.
Edited by acabouet, tecjam. Log in to edit this page.
This guide refers to the meta tag verification method available for Google Webmaster Tools and these instructions are specific for Drupal 7.
You can also add any other meta tag you require using this guide.
edit: Since writing this guide a module has popped up that does all this for you. You can find the Site verify module here. However, if you require a more complex approach - see the first comment for an example - or just want to learn a bit more about how it works or simply prefer the DIY approach then please do read on:
What you require:
- Google Webmasters Tools Account - sign up here: https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/
- Custom theme (or a copy of a supplied theme) in either /sites/default/themes/ or /sites/all/themes/
- Google Webmaster Tools Verification Code (meta tag)
1) Make sure you have your Google Webmaster Tools Verification Code meta tag. It looks something like this:
<meta name="google-site-verification" content="abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789" />
2) Browse to your themes directory. If you plan to modify your theme, it is best practice to either create a new custom theme, or copy an existing theme (or create a sub-theme) in your sites/default/themes/ folder. If you don't know what I mean, you ought to read up on custom themes for Drupal 7 before continuing with this guide.
3) In your themes directory, open the template.php file in an editor. If you don' t not have such a file, create a blank page and call it template.php.
4) To add the meta tag we will need to use template_preprocess_html.
Initially I thought it would be possible by using the hook_html_head_alter but this will only allow already defined $head_elements to be modified or unset, so we need to first create the element and then add it using drupal_add_html_head.
Check your template.php file to see if you already have a YOUR_THEME_NAME_preprocess_html function defined. If yes, you will need to paste the code inside the function into it.
Make sure your template.php file beginns with a
<?php tag if you have created a new blank file.
5) Paste the function into the template.php file. Copy the code below and paste it into your template.php file:
* Preprocesses the wrapping HTML.
* @param array &$variables
* Template variables.
function YOUR_THEME_NAME_preprocess_html(&$vars) {
// Setup Google Webmasters Verification Meta Tag
$google_webmasters_verification = array(
'#type' => 'html_tag',
'#tag' => 'meta',
'#attributes' => array(
'name' => 'google-site-verification',
'content' => 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789',
// Add Google Webmasters Verification Meta Tag to head
drupal_add_html_head($google_webmasters_verification, 'google_webmasters_verification');
6) CHANGE THE FUNCTION NAME 'YOUR_THEME_NAME' TO YOUR THEME NAME eg: garland_preprocess_html
Check this line of the code and replace the code with the one google supplied you with when you added your site to the Google Webmasters Tools.
'content' => 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789',
8) Save your file and clear all cache.
9) Reload your site and check your source code to check if your meta tag has been added to the header.
10) Done!
I hope this has helped someone with the same problem as me.
Looking for support? Visit the Drupal.org forums, or join #drupal-support in IRC.
Only show this tag on a specific node?
Can I only show this tag on a specific node? For instance, what if I wanted this meta tag to only show on the home (front) page? What if I wanted it to show on node 25?

Easy way to site verification without any custom codes
Please follow the following steps to add site verification code into your Drupal site for different search engine Google, Bing, Pinterest and Yandex:
1. Install and enable "Metatag: Verification" module
2. Goto metatag setting admin/config/search/metatags
3. Click on "Override" for "Global: Front page"
4. Click on "edit" link of "Global: Front page"
5. Expand "SITE VERIFICATION"
6. Enter your site verification codes into different fields as per your requirement for Google, Bing, Pinterest and Yandex
[Note : Before doing these steps into your Drupal site, you need to collect all site verfication codes from these search engine sites like Google, Bing, Pinterest and Yandex]

Μ opioid receptors show short-term desensitization via a protein kinase mechanism, probably protein kinase C, which has been hypothesized to be involved in acute tolerance (Mestek et al., 1992. [Modified with permission from Pert and Snyder, 1972.] controversial because tolerance develops at doses that do not produce desensitization, but in fact activate second and third messenger transduction mechanisms (see below).

Cartel Code Attributes and Cartel Performance: An Industry-Level Analysis of the National Industrial Recovery Act
This paper uses the cartel-enabling National Industrial Recovery Act (NIRA) of 1933 to gain insight into cartel performance. I employ a monthly panel of 66 industries that passed an NIRA code of fair competition to examine how specific attributes of these cartel codes affected the ability to achieve collusive outcomes. I find that output growth was significantly lower during cartel months, consistent with cartel theory, and that industries with more complex codes were more successful than those with simpler ones. Furthermore, industries with code restrictions on new productive capacity, production quotas, and requirements to file data with a central board were the most successful at reducing output, which suggests that these types of provisions were the most effective in helping firms attain collusive outcomes. Finally, I find that the effectiveness of data-filing provisions was limited to the early months of the NIRA, prior to a wave of cartel breakdown occurring in spring 1934.

Assist to design an Arduino Sketch to analyse/graph an analog input.
Assist to design an Arduino Sketch for an Arduino Uno with LCD shield to analyse/graph an analog input testing the compression of a rotary engine.(A repeating signal with 3 unique eg 1-2-3, 1-2-3...)
The rotary engine has 3 separate compression chambers (rotor1, rotor2 and rotor3) and need to be identified. (A repeating signal with 3 unique eg 1-2-3, 1-2-3...)
Analog input will be logged at as high a resolution as possible over a 5 seconds time period (possibly to SD card) after which the highest values for the 3 peaks will be mapped from raw analog value to actual sensor values displayed on screen and the peaks per minute calculated.
Please see the attached picture to demonstrate an example of the analog input.

Source: World in Crisis – Oh Easy-liver
World in major crisis! What has gone wrong? A lack of peace, with an intense increase in the presence of war is plaguing various corners of this space we call the human home. Mother earth is bawling from the deepest recesses of her belly complements the wickedness of humanity itself. Interestingly, everyone who perpetuates, and or promotes the violence believes he or she is acting justly, rightly and is pleasing the self and his or her god.
The confusion is inexplicable to the average easy-liver. The Easy-liver is someone who just wants to be allowed to live his or her life without fear and threat of being cut down innocently by some extremist. This type of individual pursues tranquility in the simple things of life, consciously avoids complications, and would like to travel the world, simply to behold the splendor of its creator.
The easy-liver wants to dine tasting various cuisine, is curious about the languages spoken in distant lands and is itching to try their own tongue at conversing with the natives of those lands. The easy-liver is curious, and is hungry for the sublime. After all when life was less advanced, and industrialization was null, the sublime was the real deal. Has sublimity been completely eradicated from this crazy world?
Supposedly, the easy-liver is unrealistic, seemingly even prehistoric. To desire such old-fashioned lifestyle seems crazy in this chaotic world in any case. Many travelers may say it is no longer fun taking an airplane from one country to another. The security measures are demanding, the mere fear of sitting in an aircraft with an undiscovered lunatic is lurking, and then the hassle of getting through some immigration officers despite owning clean slates are inescapable.
Speaking of violence and wars – one may be tempted to look at distant shores. Lately, our close neighbors are daily under fire. The stories of shootings are horrific; the anger being perpetuated by some fractions of that US Society is scary, because cliche has it that when the US sneezes, we in our region catch the cold. Hopefully, we can vaccinate our region utilizing created and existing tools, including a strong regional bond. Nonetheless, we must remain aware, and pray for the lands which surround us.
As if we are bringing to reality the known fact that "history repeats itself", there is a feeling of anxiety among easy-livers; because systems of the past which caused mass murders in the world are now front and center page issues. Racism, religious differences and disrespect for human freedoms are upfront. Who would have thought that in a world so technologically advanced that is it now seen as a global village, people would be seeking to build walls of destruction? As if the world has totally regressed, and that regression is showing its ugly face through the anger and violence being displayed by various sects and factions. Arguably, maybe the world never advanced from its state of confusion, but was just band aiding some deep wounds for centuries as if hypocritically.
Today, the world itself is yearning for the ability to grasp a sigh of relief from all that drama. Sadly, man seems unwilling to allow that woman to breathe freely. For the easy-liver, the resolution should be to keep living as best as possible within the existing chaotic world, for to stop living is to die emotionally and physically. To all easy-livers, keep living as best as you can. Besides, easy-livers must defy these deadly odds.
Tropical Storm Erika has certainly struck our nation beyond anything one would have fathomed prior to its arrival over Dominica. The shocking evidence of its mischief is vivid. Things will be so for a long time via the various memorabilia which will emerge, and those which have already emerged. Without decreasing the impact of the monstrosity of this weather system which has battered my homeland, I feel obligated to highlight some lessons that I am learning since Thursday 27th August, 2015.
These lessons I hope to remember as days go by. Meanwhile, efforts to continue the contribution being made toward Dominica's reconstruction will persist as best as possible. What have you learned from Erica? What are you learning? Feel free to share with me.
"Fear not, for God is with you, Fear Not!" — Isaiah 41:10
The fear of pressing on amidst life's many questionable challenges always tends to show its ugly face, when we would prefer otherwise. For some people, God is an abstract being, so a statement like the above may not stand nor hold any substance to them. For those of us who believe in a higher power, whom we call God, we hold on to this reality, that fear is never bigger than HIM.
Whatever you call HIM, if you believe in a higher, and supreme being, when fear knocks at your door like a thief, remember you are not alone. It is easy however, to feel like you are alone, like all is lost, like nothing works, or that all is falling apart. Let me remind you to steer the course because it is worth pressing on against fear and its relations.
Believe me, I have thought about quitting on so many things and individuals, and some in my lifetime I have actually quitted for good. There are times when it is necessary to quit entirely, and otherwise, there are times to quit for a moment. In my second book – "Moving Out of the Crowd", I encourage movement when it is necessary. The truth is often, we find ourselves in places, and spaces where our well-beings are more at risk, than the adverse. So, move we often have to.
Still, we must learn to hang on tightly when it is necessary. That may mean that we must look fear in the face and say: Not Today, I am NOT Quitting on myself, I Will Press on, I will Endure, I Will Succeed. Press on Today and trust in God, whom ever your God is, for He is with you! A great way to start is by repeating these expressions as often as necessary. So here goes: "Today, I am NOT Quitting on myself, I Will Press on, I will Endure, I Will Succeed – I am NOT a quitter."
Have you ever felt the need to challenge yourself? Of course you have felt that way before. Well, for me, I more than feel to do so, I intend to give a challenge a shot. Today, I prepare to embark on a new journey, one that will allow me to explore new life's possibilities. A great level of curiosity is what I intend to take with me to that new "classroom" of life.
To attempt anything new requires that we utilize a level of curiosity. As if contradictory to this, the famous adage that "curiosity killed the cat" comes rushing through my mind with a plan to sabotage my new enthusiasm. Thinking aloud I shout to the top of my voice, – "Oh thief of fear and doubt, get the heck out of here." This thief forgets that I am aware of the other adage that "Cats have nine lives"? It is with this knowledge of "nine-lives" that I am going to press on toward my new challenge.
Employment of the nine-life effect will hold my curiosity just where it requires to be. Snooping, questioning, reading, researching, listening, writing, and exploring will be some tools at use during the next 13 weeks of my life. A sense of hope rushes through my psyche as I prepare to mentally dig deeply towards the commencement of this new intellectual challenge.
If you have a curiosity, if you are thinking about attempting a new challenge, give it a shot. Life happens, but not like guesswork. Rather, life happens by the seconds, constantly, unstoppably and requires that we engage it, more that exist in it.
At this stage, I choose to withhold information as pertains to my curiosity, except to call it a challenge, a new dimension. I hope you can wish me well as I embark on this one in which I intend to fully engage myself.
Meanwhile, give your desire to challenge yourself, an opportunity to do so. I will share a quote from a friend who was struck by it once it was shared with her by a wise elder: "If you want to get into the arena, you must get into the corridor." I am heading toward a new corridor starting tomorrow, hoping to get into a new and exciting arena. Hopefully when success strikes, I will be more than happy to share it all with you. :)
God bless.
The old 2014 is closing, giving us two more days to consider what we will plan for 2015. The reality is that the world continues business as usual. Certainly, once 12:00am occurs on Thursday, the wicked regimes of the world will still be planning mayhem, conspiring their next torturous acts, the Western world will continue its celebrations, Christians in some parts of the world will still be suffering great persecutions, the girls of Nigeria will still be hurting from the loss of their education, innocence, pride, and familial safety, and world leaders will probably all be seeking new ideas for their nation states. Man this world is so chaotic, it is with great apprehension many humans are looking toward 2015.
So what is in all this Happy New Year Wishes? Is it really going to be starting off as a happy new year? Will it be one that brings great joy, prosperity, peace and all the good and wonderful things we speak off during the euphoria of the break of a new day and year? Forgive me if I sound pessimistic, but the truth is it feels selfish living as if all is well in this world of great sadness. Even today, some 160 plus people plunged into the abyss of the unknown, have left loved ones and relatives looking for their answers as to their way about; then we cannot forget the over 200 lost at flight, who left family and friends with a void unable to be filled by human words to date. Oh world of Crisis! What then is in all the NEW YEAR wishes?
We remember the bereaved who stopped to remember their loved ones who were swept away, stolen and or buried by the great tsunami of 2004. I wonder whether they will have a happy new year. To chronicle all the bitterness that 2014 has pasted on our lips would be impossible internationally.
Not too far though within our region we too have had our own blows. Chikungunya has dealt our little Dominica and our region some beatings. Some of us are left with pains from its debilitating effects, some of us have suffered arthritis, and the likes, from a blasted little mosquito bite. Meanwhile our agricultural sector continues to suffer under the black sigatoka disease as if like a plague from the enemy of our food basket. Tohneh, these ills were made to look small by the threat of Ebola which has set all of our region in motion to preserve and protect our populace. The scare of this monster is insurmountable.
Then, there were the election fever flies biting too, with some people still suffering from LOP (loss of power) syndrome. I tell you, it began with PEM (pre-election madness) and unfolded into LOP for some, while others are rejoicing at their gains. Hopefully 2015 will not reveal to us another electoral madness which I will define as TMPS – Too much power syndrome. One cannot forget the great divide created by the election fever flies, 2015 will need to breed some reconciliation strings quickly to save our nation state. Undoubtedly our neighbouring islands who have experienced elections in 2014, to include Antigua certainly will require that reconciliatory pill as soon as possible as well.
Inclusively, some of us suffered the loss of loved ones to the sting of death, some brutal, some realistically expected. All the same, with the void death creates, hurts were inevitably experienced.
In other cases, people quit jobs, to gain new ones. Some of us gave up 'opportunities' to seek peace of mind, unafraid of the outcomes. Some of us saw persecutions, rejections, disrespect and ill-treatments from various spheres. In my case close friends and loved ones have suffered from the dreaded monster called cancer in different forms. One thread carried through though for each of these people whom I love, – they remained positive. So, 2014 is leaving, and some of us are happy, but is it because we anticipate better in 2015? Maybe that is really why, – Anticipation!
Anticipation is great, but I want to attest to having FAITH! Faith surpasses anticipation, for indeed, it takes a great level of Faith in Christ, Faith in God, faith in the Scriptures to keep treading through this journey called life. To close ones eyes and ears to the negatives of this life is almost impossible. It is faith then that keeps us fighting, and keeps us hopeful. It is faith that allows us to be able to smile, love, laugh, enjoy friends, family and loved ones, and to keep working for the betterment of the corner where we have been placed in this world.
So as if to topple all the darkness highlighted above, I hereby submit, that we can definitely risk wishing each other a Happy New Year, a better year in 2015, since our Faith will keep us fighting the woes. Our positivity will keep us fighting, like my three friends who in different parts of the world fought and in some cases are still fighting deadly cancers. Their faith keep them going. A page then we can take from these fighters, these warriors – Keep faith alive, keep hopeful, and press on. With this simple encouragement, I urge you and me, to have a Happy, Blessed and Prosperous new year.
For Faith is: "The substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen!" – Hebrews 11:1
Blessings to you in 2015. In a special way I dedicate this post to Jim Henson, Alicia Christopher V. and SMS! Three people I appreciate and love!
People will write you off in life. That is just how it is. You cannot do much to change their choice if and when that happens. Notwithstanding that fact, one must do everything within his or her power to continue living a life fulfilled. Besides, to do otherwise is to hand-deliver ones life's power to someone else who does not care a single thing about him/her.
When I think about the crisis that occurs all around us, the mere hurts dished out to us, are really peanuts. Heck, so many real souls are being lost daily, so many hearts are being literally shattered, so many limbs are being broken by wicked acts of other real people. The small rejections, write-offs, and their cousins are definitely unimportant.
The Ebola victims, the citizens of Gaza, the innocent women and children dying from the wicked acts of men, the hopeless, brainwashed men offering themselves for the selfish benefits of others; when I think about these more concerning matters, my issues of loss, hurt and pains are irrelevant.
To this end, I will take another rejection, I will allow my heart to be broken again, I will humble myself to say "I'm sorry, Please forgive me," I will be the bigger person in my smallness of honest acknowledgement of my failures. It is worth it I think. Yes, it is worth it, because truly, these are incomparable to the horror, terror and misery of so many hurting souls all over the world.
The losses, the deprivation of our own properties , the disrespect from selfish people, the cold shoulders, the verbal back-stabbings are weightless in comparison to the fears, dejections, injustices and bitter pills dealt to so many around the world. The dreaded photo of thousands fleeing a place they have called home for so long, to go to — "no-real-where," – that is what matters. These are the things we ought to lament over. That is what we should condemn forcefully. "Woe to the down-pressers…" –Bob Marley would say!
Meanwhile, let me do what I can from where I am: "Say a prayer for the world…" –For the sake of His (Jesus) sorrowful passion, Father have mercy on US, and on the Whole World!

The triquetra has been found on runestones in Northern Europe and on early Germanic coins. It presumably had pagan religious meaning and it bears a resemblance to the Valknut, a symbol associated with Odin. The triquetra is often found in Insular art, most notably metal work and in illuminated manuscripts like the Book of Kells. It is also found in similar artwork on Celtic crosses and slabs from the early Christian period.

Your customers expect you to set the bar on customer focus, according to a new survey by the American Management Association and the Human Resource Institute. Customers want CEOs, owners, directors and other high-ranking managers on the front lines to answer questions—and put out small fires—when your employees interact with and serve customers. Your support is key, and it's the single-most important action companies can and should take to maintain a solid customer focus. What you can do: Have your senior management set the example with customer- focused behaviors, quickly resolve complaints with consumers, create a customer- oriented culture, ask customers directly about their needs, keep your promises and stay aware of what the competition is offering.
