Fixes the remaining dead links from the familyfed.ie link audit.

www.unification.net is a suspended domain (returns 200 but redirects to a cPanel suspended page) and two external posts now 404. Rewrote each dead link to its verified Internet Archive capture (all 200), keeping the anchor text and #fragments intact.

Changes (25 link rewrites + 1 image removal across 9 files):

  • 13 unification.net URLs — on the About and Videos pages and 6 archived speeches -> web.archive.org captures.
    • dp96/dp96-1-2.html ("The Human Fall") has no archived capture, so its About/Videos link falls back to the archived Divine Principle index (dp96/).
  • familyfed.org news story + dplife.info post -> their web.archive.org captures.
  • techicy.com "Happy New Year" image (404, no archive) -> removed the hotlinked <img>; the caption text is kept.

Note: archive links are a safe, working fallback. The Divine Principle links on the public About/Videos pages could later be pointed at a live mirror (tparents.org / unification.org) instead of the archive if preferred — happy to do that as a follow-up once the client picks a canonical source.

After this merges, the link audit is fully cleared.

Fixes the remaining dead links from the familyfed.ie link audit. `www.unification.net` is a **suspended domain** (returns 200 but redirects to a cPanel suspended page) and two external posts now **404**. Rewrote each dead link to its verified Internet Archive capture (all 200), keeping the anchor text and `#fragments` intact. **Changes (25 link rewrites + 1 image removal across 9 files):** - **13 `unification.net` URLs** — on the **About** and **Videos** pages and 6 archived speeches -> `web.archive.org` captures. - `dp96/dp96-1-2.html` ("The Human Fall") has **no archived capture**, so its About/Videos link falls back to the archived Divine Principle index (`dp96/`). - **familyfed.org** news story + **dplife.info** post -> their `web.archive.org` captures. - **techicy.com** "Happy New Year" image (404, no archive) -> **removed** the hotlinked `<img>`; the caption text is kept. **Note:** archive links are a safe, working fallback. The Divine Principle links on the public About/Videos pages could later be pointed at a *live* mirror (tparents.org / unification.org) instead of the archive if preferred — happy to do that as a follow-up once the client picks a canonical source. After this merges, the link audit is fully cleared.

www.unification.net is a suspended domain and two external posts 404. Rewrote
the remaining dead links to verified Internet Archive captures (200), preserving
anchor text and #fragments:

- 13 unification.net URLs across About, Videos and 6 speeches -> web.archive.org
  captures. dp96/dp96-1-2.html has no archived capture, so its About/Videos link
  falls back to the archived Divine Principle index (dp96/).
- familyfed.org news story and dplife.info post -> their web.archive.org captures.
- Removed the hotlinked techicy.com 'Happy New Year' image (404, no archive);
  the caption text is kept.

Archive links are a safe fallback; the Divine Principle links on About/Videos
could later be pointed at a live mirror (tparents.org / unification.org).
