This is part of the constantly growing “organism” of US missile defense. These satellite dishes are used in drone attacks and other “intelligence” wars.

Also looks like a map from “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3″.

This is amazing.

At eleven o’clock the locomotive’s whistle announced that they were approaching Plum Creek station. Mr. Fogg rose, and, followed by Fix, went out upon the platform. Passepartout accompanied him, carrying a pair of revolvers. Aouda remained in the car, as pale as death.

The door of the next car opened, and Colonel Proctor appeared on the platform, attended by a Yankee of his own stamp as his second. But just as the combatants were about to step from the train, the conductor hurried up, and shouted, “You can’t get off, gentlemen!”

“Why not?” asked the colonel.

“We are twenty minutes late, and we shall not stop.”

“But I am going to fight a duel with this gentleman.”

“I am sorry,” said the conductor; “but we shall be off at once. There’s the bell ringing now.”

In addition the tutorial it helps to know that classes added within the WordPress menu builder can be defined this way:
li.main-cats a {
color: #FDBC4D;
font: 15px/18px "Arial Black", Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, sans-serif;
}

li.menu-item-object-post a {
padding-left: 15px;
background: url(images/bullet.gif) no-repeat left top;
padding-top: 3px;
}

As you can see all I need to do was add a class in the menu builder and setup that class to have some different font styling than the rest to look really good. In this case the class set in the WordPress menu generator was “main-cats” and “sub-main-cats”. But in order to set the styles you must use “li.menu-cats”…

Full Story on the largest theft in national history from the LA TIMES.

On a recent wordpress job I needed a way to count posts and show a number for the post. For example Article 1, Article 2, etc. In my case I need that count to start at 100. So Article 100, Article 101 and so on. I searched for days without ever finding anything, then on a random stumble I found this:

How to display incrementing number next to each published post on WP RECIPES. Apparently, this was also posted on the WP Forum.

This goes in the theme functions:

function updateNumbers() {
/* numbering the published posts: preparation: create an array with the ID in sequence of publication date, /
/ save the number in custom field 'incr_number' of post with ID /
/ to show in post (within the loop) use ID,'incr_number',true); ?>
/ alchymyth 2010 */
global $wpdb;
$querystr = "SELECT $wpdb->posts.* FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE $wpdb->posts.post_status = 'publish' AND $wpdb->posts.post_type = 'post' ";
$pageposts = $wpdb->get_results($querystr, OBJECT);
$counts = 0 ;
if ($pageposts):
foreach ($pageposts as $post):
setup_postdata($post);
$counts++;
add_post_meta($post->ID, 'incr_number', $counts, true);
update_post_meta($post->ID, 'incr_number', $counts);
endforeach;
endif;
}

This goes in the loop where you want the post numbering to appear:
ID,'incr_number',true); ?>
