...well-known British psychic." His colleague Stearn Robinson is somewhat more ambiguously qualified as an interpreter of omens: she was a New York advertising woman and radio scriptwriter, listed on the book jacket as the inventor of the "integrated commercial." Their advice is to ignore dreams with a digestive origin and recurrent dreams too: these are certain to have a physiological or psychological basis and are thus without interest as portents...
...transcripts that the White House provided offer fresh details about the origin of the plan to bug the Democratic national headquarters, as well as precisely what the undercover team was after. At their March 21, 1973 meeting, Dean told Nixon that the operation originated with an order from Haldeman to "set up a perfectly legitimate campaign intelligence operation" within the Nixon re-election committee.

The intervals between songs were filled with too much shuffling of feet, too many nervous jokes, and too little explanation of the origin and meaning of each song, with its Welsh or Irish or Breton lyrics. The program was musically weak only when the group moved from the folk-rock format to an attempt at hard rock. The attempt was shrill and unpleasant...
