This s a fixture I hurried to make to use my new lock miter bit. I needed it for rouitng the parts for my dart box.
It is made from poplar that is veneered with mahogany. It is a table leaf I got from LJ Doug Scott ( Thank you Doug!!)
It has a T slot screwed on so the left clamp can be adjusted easily for different widths\
The 5th shot is a piece of that table leaf used to shim the fence out the same amount as the fixture for cutting the horizontal piece. The last shot is the joint it makes. This was one of the first shots before it was zeroed in to exactly match.

Excellent! I've got one of those bits and I've never gotten around to trying it out and wasn't exactly sure how it was supposed to work. After seeing your new super jig it now seems very clear. Thanks for sharing.

Dan. I have bigger lock miter it and I had it for years and it never worked good for me until I built my new miter table with the high fence. That made the difference in holding that vertical piece solid enough to get a good cut with no movement away from the fence….................Jim

Daddy's Present: An Erotic Story
All stories on this web site are purely FICTIONAL. The people depicted within these stories only exist in someone's IMAGINATION. Any resemblence between anyone depicted in these stories and any real person, living or dead, is an incredible COINCIDENCE too bizarre to be believed. If you think that you or someone you know is depicted in one of these stories it's only because you're a twisted perverted little fucker who sees conspiracies and plots where none exist. You probably suspect that your own MOTHER had sex with ALIENS and COWS and stuff. Well, she didn't. It's all in your head. Now take your tranquilizers and RELAX.
Daddy's Present
An Erotic Story
For my 12th birthday, Momma had Daddy give me a present I
had been wanting since I was 3 years old. My very own baby.
After my birthday party was over, and everyone had left, Daddy
came to my room, where I was undressing, and spoke to me
"Uh, Princess?"
I always melt inside, when Daddy calls me his "princess."
"Yes Daddy?" I continued to undress, trying to appear
nonchalant, as I did so. After all, Daddy had seen me naked,
many times before
Only this time, I hoped he noticed how I had
been growing.
"Your mother says you are old enough." Daddy seemed to have
a hard time getting the words out. He coughed, then continued,
"So, if you really want to. . ."
I had been bugging Momma for the last six months, so I knew
immediately, what Daddy was talking about. I could barely keep
from screaming with delight. "You mean it Daddy?" I asked.
"You'll do it to me?"
Daddy nodded. "Uhuh. Whatever you want. Your mother says
I'm to teach you as much about sex, as you want to learn. Oral
sex, straight sex, anal sex, incest, bestiality, bondage,
anything. Even how to make a baby, if you want one
If you
wish, I'll show you how, so you can do it with your boyfriend,
and we'll let the two of you practice as much as you want. Or,
if you prefer, I'll show you personally, or we can skip that
part, and just show you how to have fun, without getting
pregnant. It's all up to you. Your mother says you've been
having periods for over six months now. You are probably fertile
right this minute, and you're old enough now, to make your own
This was a long speech for Daddy. He waited to hear my
I hadn't paid much attention to the whole spiel. I was only
sure of one part, where Daddy said, "I'll show you personally."
"You mean it Daddy?" I asked again, wanting to be sure I
heard correctly.
Daddy looked a little hurt. "Of course I mean it," he said.
"Have I ever lied to you?"
That's one thing about Daddy. He NEVER lied. Sometimes he
told the truth in a strange manner, or left off parts, but he
never lied. If Daddy said he would do something, he would do it,
or die trying.
"You mean you'd actually fuck me, and make a baby in me, if
I asked you to?" I still couldn't believe it.
Daddy still looked a little hurt, but nodded anyway.
I couldn't stand the wait, or try to be tactful. "Do it
Daddy," I said. "Show me how to make a baby. The right way. I
want to feel my own handsome daddy's baby growing in my tummy."
By this time, I had finished undressing, and I stood there
waiting. For a second, Daddy just stood there staring at me,
until I prompted him, "Please Daddy?" Daddy did it.
"Quick," said Daddy. "Lie back on the bed. This first
time, is going to be kind of quick. If I don't get inside you
pretty soon, I'll. . . " Daddy didn't finish, he just ripped off
his clothes, and climbed on top of me
"Spread your legs," he croaked.
As I did so, I felt Daddy slide up between them, and then
there was a hard knobby something pressing against my little
cunny. I knew it was Daddy's penis, from sex-education class.
My own father was about to put his big penis right up inside my
little vagina, and get me pregnant with his sperm. I couldn't
At first, Daddy's cock wouldn't go in, but after rubbing it
up and down a little, some slippery stuff came out the end, and
it started to go in. My pussy stretched a little, then stretched
some more
It felt like Daddy was pushing a baseball bat up my
crack. I bit my lip, and pushed back. I wasn't about to stop
Suddenly there was an almost audible "pop," and the head of
Daddy's penis slipped about an inch into my vagina. I stifled an
"Ow!" and then said, "It's OK, Daddy. Go ahead and do it."
Daddy did. He pulled out about half an inch, then pushed it back
in. This time, it slid in almost two inches. I looked down
between my legs at where Daddy's cock penetrated my body. It
looked so obscene, yet so sexy too, to see my bare little cunny
connected to Daddy's body by a big long piece of meat, that
looked like a sausage, or maybe a hose, about to squirt me full
of baby-making sperm.
The excitement was too much, I felt a ripple run down my
body, and concentrate in my stuffed little crack. I could tell
that Daddy felt me squeezing him, as he bit his lip to keep from
cumming in me, before he got all the way inside
Gritting his
teeth, Daddy pulled out a little once again, then pushed it back
in further this time, until it hurt.
"Ow!" I said. "That hurt."
"Daddy's got to break your hymen." The voice at my elbow,
almost made me jump out of my skin. I looked over to see Momma
and my two younger sisters watching intently, as Daddy fucked me
Vaguely, I remembered something about a bit of skin inside your
vagina, that a man had to put his penis through, before you were
considered a woman. I knew this was going to hurt, but I sure
wasn't about to chicken out in front of the whole family.
"Do it, Daddy," I said, gritting my teeth. "Fuck me
got a small bit of satisfaction, out of saying "fuck," in front
of the whole family, knowing that nobody would object, seeing
that that's what Daddy and I were doing. Fucking, that is.
Once again, Daddy "did it." If it wasn't for knowing the
whole family was watching, I would have let out a howl of pain.
As it was, I almost bit my lip in two, as I struggled to keep
from yelling. Daddy's 8-inch cock had slipped almost all the way
up in my tummy. My bare little crack was obscenely stretched
around the base, almost touching the fur surrounding Daddy's
genitals. I felt as stuffed as a turkey, and twinges of pain
still shot from inside my vagina, as the last remnants of my
virginity were stretched by my own father's penis.
Still, there were compensations. The feeling of Daddy's
cock pulsing inside me, knowing my own handsome father was about
to squirt the stuff that made babies up right inside my vagina,
and get me pregnant, while the whole family encouraged him to get
me pregnant, was a thrill I'll never forget.
Just knowing that Daddy loved me enough to squirt his sperm
in me, so that I could carry his baby in my womb, was a thrill
also. I know that some people don't think that a man is supposed
to have sex with his own daughter under any circumstances. I
think they're as crazy as those nuts who think it's their "duty"
to fuck their kids. A girl should fuck the person SHE wants to
fuck, when she gets old enough to make an intelligent decision.
If a girl wants her first time to be with her boyfriend, then
that's who she should fuck. Some girls want to fuck their own
brothers, and some girls are in love with their fathers. Some
girls don't want to fuck at all, preferring to "save it" until
they get married. I think, that if a girl loves her father, and
he loves her, and he's the one she wants to learn with, why
should she be forced to limit herself to some lesser man? Of
course, if he's happily married, the girl had better get
permission from her mother first, like I did.
I realize, that most women would be upset at the thought of
their husband fucking their little girl, but as I said, MY mother
loves me enough to trust that I know what I wanted, and loves
Daddy enough to know that she wasn't going to lose him to her own
daughter. She even loves me enough to let me carry Daddy's baby.
It's too bad, that most other girl's parents don't love them this
much. The world would be a much happier place, if they did.
I've seen families break up, because someone's mother got
jealous over the looks her husband gave her daughter. Knowing
Momma loves him enough to let him give me the baby I wanted made
Daddy love her even more than before, if possible, and I love her
for it too. Someday, I'm going to find a way to show her how
much. The warm loved feeling I got, as my whole family
encouraged my father to give me the baby I wanted, was
indescribably delicious.
"Fuck her Daddy" squealed my little sister.
"Go on Dear. Fuck her. Get our little girl pregnant."
"Yeah Daddy," I said. "Get me pregnant."
Daddy just groaned.
I pulled back a little, and this time I pushed. The last
half-inch of Daddy's penis slid inside me
My bare little
pussylips were splayed around the base of Daddy's cock, and his
penis had vanished all the way up in my belly. I could feel the
head of Daddy's penis bumping against my cervix, as it dribbled
pre-cum into the neck of my uterus. It was too exciting. My
little cunny began clamping and squeezing on Daddy's cock, as an
unexpected orgasm overtook me
The only previous climaxes I had
were on my own fingers, and once or twice with my sister.
Feeling Daddy's penis throbbing inside me while I spasmed around
him was unbelievably good. On and on it went, as I never seemed
to stop.
Feeling me climax, was too much for Daddy. He had been
trying to hold out, and have both of us enjoy a nice long
leisurely fuck for the first time, but he couldn't hold out any
Suddenly, Daddy's cock seemed to grow an inch longer, and
a lot fatter, as he jammed it up inside me HARD. There was a
sickening stretching sensation, as the tip of Daddy's penis
stretched the entrance to my uterus, and Daddy started spewing
his thick sticky cum right up into my womb!
"Oh. Ohh. OHHh! Daddy loves you! Oh! Daddy's cumming in
his little girl. Oh! Daddy's getting his little girl pregnant.
Oh. Unh Uunhnn. Oh Princess, I love you so much." With each
"Oh," I felt a huge bulge ripple through Daddy's penis, up inside
my tummy, and a spurt of thick sticky wet stuff would be injected
into my unprotected young womb. My little cunny was squeezing
and sucking on daddy's penis, nursing on it like a baby, milking
each precious drop of my father's baby-making sperm up in my
belly where it belonged. I knew Daddy was making a baby in me
right then. I almost melted with love for my father. Not many
girls got to show their father that they loved him enough to
carry his baby. And not many fathers would give their daughters
a baby to carry, even if asked. I was so thankful that MY Daddy
loved me enough to let me carry his baby in my tummy, and Mommy
loved me enough to let Daddy plant it there
It was the best
birthday present I ever had.
Fucking Daddy was somewhat like the confusion you can get
into when you kiss someone you love
You feed on each other. It
starts out, that you kiss someone to thank them. They like your
kiss so much, that they want to kiss you, to thank you! Then you
like THEIR kiss so much, that you want to thank them. Etc etc.,
until you run out of breath kissing each other. Only this time,
it was that Daddy loved me enough to make a baby in my belly. I
loved Daddy so much, that I wanted him to. Daddy was so
grateful, he thanked me, by giving me what I wanted: a baby. I
was so grateful that Daddy would even want to make a baby in me,
that I let him squirt his sperm in my womb, and knock me up. . .
Well, you can see where this leads.
Afterwards, we both lay there gasping, enjoying the pleasure
of being mated. I could almost feel Daddy's precious sperm
wriggling its way up inside my womb, in search of my waiting egg.
Finally, Daddy had to pull out. It felt as though I was being
turned inside-out, as Daddy withdrew what seemed like a log from
my tummy. A dribble of white still leaked off the tip, and white
smears ran down the sides. It looked beautiful to me
The elder of my two sisters reached out, and scooped up the
glob of white on the end of Daddy's penis. "So that's the stuff
that makes babies," she said matter-of-factly. "Would it make a
baby in me, if it got inside me too?" With this, she took the
whole family by surprise, as she reached down between her legs,
and pulling her panties to one side, she shoved her sperm-covered
finger all the way up inside her 10-year-old crack.
Boy, did she get in trouble! Momma and Daddy gave her a
tongue-lashing she never forgot. Interestingly, they didn't try
to clean Daddy's sperm out of her, they just told her that she'd
have to wait until she was at least 12, and having periods,
before she tried to have a baby like me
My sister tried to say
that she already had a period, but Momma insisted that she wait
until she was older, like I had.
Afterwards, I asked Daddy if I was pregnant. He told me,
"Probably not, but we'll keep working at it, until you are
" And
we did. I also asked Daddy to teach me about those other things,
like bestiality (You wouldn't believe what that one was! We went
out to the farm and. . .Naw! You wouldn't believe me, if I told
you.) incest (It turned out that Daddy and I had already done
that one) bondage and discipline (For a week, I was Daddy's
slave, and whore, and he beat me when I misbehaved, then the next
week, he was MY slave, and I made him do some REALLY nasty
things. We had to stop doing this, after about 6 months, as we
didn't want to chance it when I got bigger, with the baby and
all.) golden showers (that was just fun) and a whole lot more
(You wouldn't believe what "scatology" is, if I told you.) Momma
always made sure we never went too far, even when SHE taught me
the part about homosexuality and lesbianism. She says these
things are all OK, as long as you don't get hung up on one way
only. Then it becomes a fetish. I guess, I've got somewhat of a
fetish for the incest though. Of course, I haven't completely
given up on finding someone like Daddy. If I ever do, I know
I'll have to fight my sisters for him. It would be worth it
In the meantime, Daddy fucked me every day. Usually at
night, so I could go to sleep with my father's sperm soaking in
my tummy. That first night, Daddy came into our room (all three
of us girls share 1 big bed) and climbed in bed with us naked.
He got between my legs, and started fucking me, with my 2 little
sisters staring goggle-eyed, as if we did this all the time
didn't mind. I was so happy to feel Daddy's big cock sliding up
in my tummy, I wouldn't have cared if the whole neighborhood
watched. Then, when Daddy came in me, squirting great big sticky
gobs of his warm seed in my womb, I felt so happy, I would have
done it on television! Of course, we all knew we had to keep it
a secret, but I sometimes wished I could have told everybody that
Daddy was making a baby in me
It always felt so GOOD, each time
Daddy squirted another gob of his precious sperm in my waiting
womb. I couldn't wait, until Daddy's baby started growing in
Daddy finished fucking me, and went back to Momma,
leaving me feeling wonderfully relaxed, with a creamy little
crack, and a belly full of baby-juice
In the morning, I woke up feeling stuffed. Daddy was
between my legs, just about to cum, when I realized he was there
I was just barely able to clamp down on Daddy's cock with my
cunny, before he started squirting his sperm all over the inside
of my vagina. Daddy grinned at me, and said he was trying to
knock me up, while I slept. Two days later, he succeeded. At
least, he fucked me without waking me up. It's kind of sexy, to
know that your own father is sneaking squirts of baby-juice in
your belly, while you're sleeping.
It wasn't until about a month later, that Daddy really
knocked me up. He kept on fucking me, right up until I had to go
into the hospital though. That was fun! For the next 9 months,
I enjoyed feeling Daddy's baby growing in my tummy. When I got
real big, it was (if you'll pardon the expression) a pain in the
back. Afterwards it was a pain in the snatch. The pain I had,
having a baby was so bad, you wouldn't believe it, unless you
were a woman, and had already had one of your own. If you are,
then you already know. Two weeks later, Daddy and I were working
on making a little sister for our son.
One thing that made me feel better about the pain, was
watching my little sister. Yeah, she caught, that one time, on
her own finger! I didn't catch, until a month later. So I
watched my little sister progress a month ahead of me
Well, it
was her own fault! Once they learned she was pregnant, Momma had
Daddy fuck her "for real" so she could at least have the
pleasure, of being fucked, before she had her baby. I thought it
would be cute to let her remain a virgin, until she had her baby.
That way, she would be a "Virgin Mother" just like Mary, in the
Momma and Daddy laughed, but said it wouldn't really be
fair. I pointed out, that it was really her own fault, but when
they asked me how I would feel if it was me, I had to give in.
After all, I do love my little sister, even if she IS a pain
Right now, it's almost a year later, and I can feel our
daughter squirming inside my belly, while our son sucks on my
nipples before I put him down for a nap. My sister is feeding
her daughter, and contemplating her swelling tummy as well. Last
week, Momma said our little sister could try also. She's only 7
years old, but watching her two older sisters getting fucked
every day, and having babies, must have stimulated her body, as
she's had periods twice already. You should have seen it, when
Daddy first put his big penis up inside her tiny little slit. At
first, it looked like Daddy was going to split her wide-open, but
somehow she managed to take almost all of Daddy's cock up inside
her before Daddy lost control and squirted his sperm inside her.
GOD was that sexy, watching our father impregnate our 7-year-old
little sister. Daddy just kept squirting and squirting his thick
sticky cum in the little girl, trying to get her pregnant.
Daddy's been fucking her, almost every day since then.
Yesterday, he managed to get his penis all the way up inside her,
so that he was squirting his baby-juice right into our little 7-
year-old sister's womb. The whole family is hoping that Daddy
got her pregnant. If not though, he'll keep on trying, until she
is. Boy that's a sexy thought. Only 7 years old, and pregnant
by your own daddy! She's going to look so cute, when her tummy
gets big. Me, I can't wait until my daughter gets big enough for
my son to fuck, and she isn't even born yet!
I hope the next 2 babies Daddy makes in me are girls, so our
son will have a lot of little sisters to fuck. My sister says
she wants all girls, so that Daddy can fuck them too. Our little
sister found out in the "Guiness Book of World Records" that the
youngest that anyone had a baby was 5 years old. She says she's
going to have Daddy fuck her daughters when they are 4, to see if
they can beat that record, or at least match it. She says that
she wishes she had started earlier herself. (She's only 7, and
she wanted to start earlier?!) Personally, I think that's a bit
much, but after all, they'll be HER kids.
As you can tell, we all plan on having BIG families.
You'll notice, that I didn't mention anybody's name, not
even mine
Momma wouldn't let me write this, and put it out on
the net, until she had removed ALL references that might identify
who we are
For the same reason, there's no copyright. A friend
is going to post this for us, by passing it to a friend of hers,
who has already published several stories before
He's going to
edit it, and clean up the spelling and grammar, so that there
will be no trace of my original style
My friend assures me,
that he can do this. She says he'll leave the story-line intact,
although, with no copyright, she can't guarantee that nobody will
change it afterwards. This story WAS true, when I wrote it, but
who knows what it'll be like by the time you see it.

Deakin University, Visual Communication Design program believes that design is what links creativity and innovation. Deakin aims to instil in students a belief that design can be an agent for change by encouraging them to shape their ideas into practical and attractive propositions for users, customers and society as a whole. Students are taught how to make ideas tangible and their abstract thoughts and inspirations realised in a professional and/or sociological context. Deakin's broad based definition of design respects the disciplinary overlaps of a changing profession, which now requires and more a holistic approach to problem solving via design thinking methodologies.
Deakin's Bachelor of Creative Arts (Visual Communication Design) enables you to develop practical and theoretical skills in visual communication design. This course offers a dynamic combination of contemporary design theory with specialised studio practices and practical outcomes in a variety of design disciplines. It draws upon the expertise of its staff who are active practitioners in their fields, as well as visiting, special guest and casual academic staff. The Visual Communication Design program offers the opportunity to attend an international study tour and complete an internship as part of your course.
Deakin offers many courses which can be studied by distance education overseas.
However, international students living in Australia must, in each compulsory trimester (that is, Trimesters 1 and 2), enrol in at least one unit that is offered as a Campus located unit and can, in addition enrol in units offered via Cloud (online). International students are not permitted to do more than 25% of their total course via Cloud (online) learning. Best practice is to enrol in mostly Campus located units in each compulsory trimester.
In a non-compulsory trimester (Trimester 3), international students may study Cloud (online) units only.
With a Bachelor of Creative Arts (Visual Communication Design) degree, students will gain a range of skills that can be applied to a career in the exciting and creative fields of advertising, commercial design, web design and packaging. The program will give students opportunities to work with real clients and industry briefs so that they have a 'working portfolio' at the finish of the degree. The program will offer students the opportunity to collaborate with students across arts disciplines to inform interesting dialogues and new art forms. This gives Deakin students a competitive edge in the industry, which will allow students to forge successful post-University career opportunities.
For students commencing from 2015:
To qualify for the award of Bachelor of Creative Arts (Visual Communication Design) a student must complete 24 credit points including:

Transition to University study
The faculty offers two units AIX160 Introduction to University Study and ALW117 Professional Writing for Work which are specifically designed to ease the transition into university study. New students are encouraged to enrol in one or both of these units in their first year.
Because a number of disciplinary studies are cumulative in knowledge, technical competencies and/or study and research skills there are prerequisites which direct students to take some units before others.

We've all done it. We said, "This year is going to be different." And headed to the gym. Only to gradually stop going as the year continues.
Gyms, including Lakeview Fitness Center in Morgantown, do what they can to make sure people sign up and keep coming back.
"We've got a lot of specials going on with paid-in-fulls," said Matthew Stine, the Assistant Fitness Director and Head Personal Trainer at Lakeview. "We've got all kinds of group classes that we offer through out the week. And we have boot camps that start up periodically this time of year. We've got four or five trainers that are pretty much readily available."
Maybe you want to work out in the New Year but heading to the gym isn't exactly your speed. Power Yoga Morgantown has something a little bit different to offer you. Co-owner Amanda Love said Power Yoga combines strength training with traditional yoga poses in a warm atmosphere.
"We practice with the asana, the movement, which is the yoga," said Love. "We bring in inquiry questions to each class and we bring in some meditation. We try to break everything down so everything is simple. Our classes are all levels."
Power Yoga Morgantown offered a free New Years Day class to help people start the new year right. There were almost 40 people that showed up for the class.
Love said that they are also offering some specials.
"We have a lot of new people signed up so we're really excited for that. And then from there we have a two week for $25 special," Love said. "Where for $25 they can practice as much as they want in those two weeks. Some people will even practice two or three times a day."
If you're still looking for that traditional gym atmosphere Lakeview has a number of workout regimens to choose from.
"We've got everything from indoor basketball courts and tennis courts, we've got racquetball, we've got the indoor lap pool, which not too many people have. the sauna and the steam room which is nice for after you work out," said Stine. "We've got a rock wall if people are interested in that. We've got a few people on staff that are trained to send people up there. So it's a nice change that you can mix up your workouts."
Most personal trainers agree that making heading to the gym a priority will turn it into habit.

On Thursday Twitter announced something called Twitter Cards. What are Twitter Cards? They're essentially rich snippets for Tweets and I predict they're going to be essential for making your content more portable.
Twitter Cards
There are actually three different types of cards: summary, photo and player. The summary is the default card while the photo and player cards are specifically for images and videos. Here's the example Twitter provides for a summary card.
Yes Twitter, you definitely have my attention.
Transforming Twitter?
Twitter Cards could transform Twitter from the text based default it has languished in for years to one that will compete with the more appealing and popular visual feeds like Instagram, Path, Foursquare, Tumblr, Google+ and Facebook, the latter two most notably on mobile.
If the summary card is open by default your Twitter stream would look vastly different. It might also change the behavior of those using Twitter and cause people to trim the number of those they follow.
Twitter desperately needs to capture more time and attention to fully realize their advertising business. Transforming the feed through Twitter Cards could be a big step in the right direction.
Twitter Card Properties
All of the cards support some basic properties.
You can optionally (and ideally) also include attribution in your Twitter Card.
The summary card is probably the easiest one of the three with very few required properties.
Note that you can only have one card per post. If you have the time, I recommend you read through the Twitter Card documentation.
Twitter and Open Graph Tags
You might be thinking to yourself, good god, I have to figure out another set of markup? Well, not exactly. Twitter will actually fall back on Open Graph tags should you already have those in place.
But the Open Graph tags aren't comprehensive. So if you've got Open Graph tags in place then you'll just need to add a few more to get the most out of Twitter Cards. In particular, you won't get the attribution which is very attractive in my opinion.
As an aside, there's no mention of whether Twitter will parse schema.org markup or fall back even further to standard markup like the title tag or meta description.
How To Implement Twitter Cards
I have the Open Graph tags on Blind Five Year Old but decided to implement all of the Twitter tags because I want to be certain I have full control over what is being delivered. I think portability is increasingly important so I'm not going to take any chances.
Now, a lot of what I'm going to show you is based on prior hacks and on the plugins I happen to use. So you may not be able to replicate what I do exactly, but it should give you an idea of how you can do it yourself.
Check Your Head
The first thing to understand is where to put these tags. They go in the
<head> of your posts. The
<head> is essentially an area (invisible to the user) located before the actual content of a page. It's where you give instructions to browsers and search engines about the page. This can be all sorts of things from the title to styling of a page. It's also where you declare the values for all these tags.
Think of it this way, you need special glasses to watch that 3D movie, the
<head> is where you'd be given those glasses.
View Page Source
You can see what's in the
<head> by doing a simple right mouse click on any page and selecting 'View Page Source'.
That will open up a new tab with a whole mess of code for you to review and inspect.
<head> is a bit messy with all the stuff I've done and use, but it still works and at some point I'll come back around to clean it up. Next, we'll make sure these new Twitter tags show up here.
Edit Your Header
In WordPress, go to your Dashboard and select Appearance > Editor.
Next, select the header file which will likely be header.php.
This is where you're going to be placing your code.
Now before you go any further, copy all of the code in your header.php and paste it into a text editor. So if you happen to screw things up you can just copy back your old header.php file and start again. (Seriously, do this! I've broken my site so many times and it's that backup copy I have in a text file that often saves the day.)
Drop In The Code
Now it's time to actually put the code in place. You're going to put it directly before the closing
</head> tag.
I've posted a version of the Twitter Card code on Pastebin so you can easily copy and tweak it for your own site. (Do not just copy and paste it into your own file!)
The first line is a comment and does not actually show up on the page nor give any instructions. It just makes it easier for me to see where this code resides once it's live.
The second line starts with a statement that I only want this on posts. This is accomplished with the if(is_single()) function.
Next I declare the card type (summary) and then the creator (my Twitter handle). I've hard coded the creator since I'm the only author on Blind Five Year Old. If you run a single author blog then it's easy to do this. If you run a multi-author blog or site you'll have to build in some logic and get the Twitter handle for the author of that post.
To get the URL I simply echo the get_permalink() function. The echo is essentially saying to not only find the permalink but to put what it finds there into the code.
To get the title I echo the get_the_title() function. Yeah, that's a pretty self explanatory function isn't it?
For the description I echo the get_post_meta() function which is a collection of meta data about posts. I'm asking for a specific piece of that meta. In this case it's the _aioseop_description which is the meta description I've entered via the All In One SEO Pack.
I sort of cheated by doing a Google search that brought me to a WordPress Support thread that contained the right syntax for this field. If you didn't know this you'd have to go and find the name of this field in your database via something like phpMyAdmin.
You might also be able to use the_excerpt() or to echo get_the_excerpt() here but I like the specificity since I know I've entered something for the meta description myself.
For the image, I've essentially replicated what I do to get the Open Graph image but changed the property to name (swapping og for twitter) and content to value. Again, you really don't need to do this since Twitter says they'll fall back on the Open Graph image. But I feel better having it explicitly spelled out.
Read through my Snippet Optimization post to learn more about how to use a simple custom field (og_img) to generate a featured image for each post. Seriously, it's not that hard to do.
After you put your code in you hit update file and then go to a post and view source. Hopefully you see the Twitter Card markup populating correctly. (Check this post for an example.) If not, go back and try again paying close attention to the syntax of your code.
At present Twitter does not have a testing tool like Facebook or Google, but it's something we may see in the future.
(Please comment if you can improve on, see errors in or can provide additional details such as tips for other platforms or field names for other plugins. A special thanks to Ron Kuris who helped to debug my PHP code.)
A Velvet Rope?
It is unclear who exactly will be able to participate in Twitter Cards initially.
To participate in the program, you should (a) read the documentation below, (b) determine whether you wish to support Twitter cards, and then (c) apply to participate. As we roll out this new feature to users and publishers, we are looking for sites with great content and those that drive active discussion and activity on Twitter.
It sounds like Twitter is going to review each site and create a whitelist for those they wish to support. But I have to think that this will become an open standard in short order. So get a jump on things and implement Twitter Cards now.
Twitter Cards are rich snippets for Tweets. Implementing Twitter Cards could transform Twitter into a more appealing visual feed and makes optimizing your Twitter Card an essential part of social portability.

Ramsey & Shipley on Perry & Gingrich
Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey, who heads Rick Perry's presidential campaign in Tennessee, and Rep. Toney Shipley, co-chair of Newt Gingrich's campaign, both spoke to the Kingsport Times-News about the Iowa caucus results.
Gingrich finished fourth and Perry landed in fifth place behind caucus winner and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney; second-place finisher and former U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum; and U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, who placed third.
... "I still think he's the best person for the job," Ramsey said of Perry. "I know him well. He's done a great job as governor of Texas. Obviously, the (GOP presidential) debates killed him in my opinion. I don't know if he survives through (the Jan. 21 GOP primary in) South Carolina or not. If he can't make South Carolina, it is over. ... That's going to be a personal decision for him to hold out through Iowa and New Hampshire, and South Carolina or not. ... Obviously (finishing fifth) is a blow."
...State Rep. Tony Shipley, R-Kingsport, is co-chairing Gingrich's Tennessee campaign with state Sen. Stacey Campfield, R-Knoxville.
"I think Newt Gingrich is undoubtedly the smartest man in the room," Shipley said. "It was a rough night for everybody, but when you're on the receiving end of $5.5 million in negative ads, man, they work. Let's see if they can spend that kind of money in New Hampshire and spend it in South Carolina. Newt's in. He's not coming out. ... I would venture he's in at least through (the Jan. 31 GOP primary in) Florida. The (campaign) infrastructure is there. There may have been some shaky moments on the ground in Iowa in terms of organization. That's not so here. It's not so in Georgia or Alabama, or Florida or South Carolina. ... I still think he's the smartest man in the room."
Newt's so smart he isn't even on the ballot in Virginia.

I picked this up over the weekend at Target – it's a $5.00 set that they had marked down to $4.25:
The collection includes four colors: Nude, Coral Dream, Lilac, and Teal Blue. I couldn't decide which colors to try first (they're all REALLY cute in person), but I went with Coral Dream on my toes and Nude for my fingers. The Nude is actually very close to my skin color, which is what I wanted. Check your local Target for this set – you're paying a little over $1 a bottle!

On April 28, 2012, we disconnected the Baseball Prospectus email server from the Internet because it was behaving erratically. On May 6, 2012, we discovered that there had been an unauthorized intrusion into that server, which we believe lasted less than 24 hours. At the time, it did not appear that any subscriber information had been compromised. We immediately put in place strict measures to prevent any further compromise to member information via our other servers.
Earlier this week, a Premium Account member alerted us to the unauthorized publication of Baseball Prospectus username/password information on a hacking website. Thus far, our investigation shows that only a small number of Baseball Prospectus accounts have been compromised, and even with a username/password combination, accessing a member's account would not provide access to any address or payment information. We have no evidence that there has been unauthorized access to a member's account as a result of this breach.
We apologize for this and can assure you that we will continue to monitor this situation until full resolution is accomplished. Our senior staff is working closely with appropriate law enforcement agencies and Internet security experts, and we have been assured that our computer systems have been re-secured.
As a security precaution, we will immediately require that you reset your password for access to the Baseball Prospectus site. We will do this by sending a password reset email to every subscriber's email address, with instructions on the steps to take. This will ensure that your Baseball Prospectus account is under your exclusive control. If you have any issues or problems, please email us at email@example.com (if possible, including your username, real name, and email address as it appears in our records) and we will assist you.
We ask that you reset your account with a new password rather than your previous password to ensure as much security for your account as possible.
If you're one of those people who uses the same password for multiple sites, please consider changing your password for any account you have that used the same password as your BP Premium account. I know it's a horrible pain, as I did it myself, and I apologize again for the intrusion on your time and effort. To reiterate, while it appears that only a small fraction of our accounts were published to the hacker site, and many of those had incorrect passwords, it's possible that your BP username and password are available to bad people out there.
Once again, your protection has always been important to me and all BP staff, and I want you to feel secure in your online experience at Baseball Prospectus. Please feel free to email us at firstname.lastname@example.com with any questions, comments, or thoughts.
Thank you for your business, and your time.
Dave Baseball Prospectus

Somewhere on the internet, I read the secret to creating ultra-creamy hummus is blending the liquids with tahini before adding the beans.
I wish I could remember whose blog it was that enlightened me, so I could give her due credit. Because this tip changed. my. life.
Yes. Changed my life. Other people are transformed by their first love or giving birth to children, while my world is rocked by new and innovative kitchen tips.
This isn't the most attractive looking dish, with its ghastly gray-ish hues. But I know your taste buds will love the luxurious and creamy texture, while your insides will adore the protein, fibre and minerals.
Do you have any unusual kitchen tips to tell me about?
- 2 cups cooked green lentils (this is about ½ cup dried)
- ½ cup water, or more as needed
- ¼ cup tahini
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 small cloves of garlic, minced or crushed
- ½ tsp Himalayan salt, or to taste
- In a food processor or blender, combine the tahini, water and lemon juice. Blend until the mixture is smooth.
- Add the cooked lentils, garlic and salt, then process again until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed.

Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
"We want to reinvent the way women think about their clothes," designer Rogan Gregory, who co-founded the ready-to-wear label Loomstate with his partner Scott Hahn, tells Style.com of their new multipurpose 321 collection. "[Loomstate] 321 gives women the freedom and creativity to transform their look, based on their mood and functional need, with one piece."
The multifunctionality of the new collection (some pieces can be reversed and rotated to make as many as eight different color combinations) is an obvious extension of the brand's sustainable design-meets-style motto. And, although clothes with so many different wear options usually offer the function without fashion, Gregory and Hahn have managed to maintain the chic quotient. The 321 offerings ($165 to $295) include seven styles (dresses, a cardigan, and a tank top), all made of tencel—a quick-drying, wrinkle-resistant knit fabric with yarns originating from natural tree pulp. For spring, the pair included neutrals, like khaki and black, along with pops of bright pink or yellow, inspired by the likes of color theorist Josef Albers and Mark Rothko.

There's never been a better time
to apply to Otterbein University.
Apply online today!
Good Morning, I am excited to be here in front of you today to celebrate the milestone we have reached. I was recently in Italy and was inspired by a quote I heard while I was on my trip. "What would you do today if you could not fail?" As I was thinking about this quote, I realized that usually what hold us back is the fear of failing, of doing things wrong. This is an appropriate quote for us as we are starting a new chapter on our lives; most of us are probably scared or nervous about "real life" starting, I know I was and I still am.
In my case for instance, I recently started working at the Ohio House of Representatives and although I made my first step as an adult, I still have a lot of things to do like find an apartment, learn how to make a budget and stick to it and even learn how to repay my student loans! I honestly haven't done any of those things yet because I am so scared I am going to mess something up, miss a payment or pick the wrong place to live. Going back to the quote I mentioned. We need to remember that even though we are fearful of whatever life holds for us, we can't let fear hold us back.
This part of our lives is very similar to four to five years ago at the end of our senior year of high school. We were unsure of what college we were going to go to, who we were going to have as a roommate and for some, if we had even picked the right major.
But look at us today; we are all here because we pushed through that fear. And for the parents, I bet most were fearful of letting their kids go off to college, questioning if you had raised them right, if they were going to be doing the right things while they were gone. Well parents, I bet you are extremely proud of us for doing things right, even if we procrastinated and started writing our research papers at 11 p.m. the night before. And to the professors: We got our papers in on time, right?
I want us to look at how much change the Class of 2012 made for Otterbein in the past 4 years. If we had been fearful, we wouldn't have all these new programs at Otterbein. We assisted with the conversion of Otterbein College to Otterbein University; we requested that there were more study abroad programs, so now we have multiple classes offered during J-term for travel; we pushed for a Women's Studies program, which only a very few campuses have as a major; we've created new organizations and have been role models for the incoming classes.
The Class of 2012 is a competitive class. Look around the room. You are surrounded by leaders, people with goals and aspirations. We are a testament of how we can go above and beyond and we have to thank Otterbein for giving us the resources to do that. This institution has given us the competence and ambition to seek competitive positions in the job market and obtain them. Many of our class members are obtaining very competitive jobs in nursing, accounting and theater, just to name a few. Some of us have decided to move onto higher education and been accepted into prestigious universities schools like Georgetown University and American University with fellowships and scholarships. We need to give ourselves a round of applause for everything we have achieved.
Do you remember the slogan that said "Otterbein: Take it With You"? All of us are going to take a part of Otterbein with us, BUT we are leaving a part of us behind on this campus to inspire future generations to be leaders like us. So I just want to ask everyone in the room, "What would you do today if you could not fail?" Whatever it is, seek your passions and go do it.
Thank you.

Housebuilder Hillreed Homes will soon start work on a major new homes development in East Sussex's market town of Hailsham.
The new residential development will be built in Burfield Valley off Battle Road, about seven miles from the seaside resort of Eastbourne.
Burfield Valley, which is a very exciting and highly regarded new development, will provide a varied range of two-, three- and four-bedroom homes.
Phase one will be launched shortly together with a fully furnished Show Home. In the first phase there will be a choice of new homes most with south or west facing rear gardens.
Aside from the construction of new homes, the scheme will also include an array of exciting features, including a stream and a pond.
"We have taken a great deal of time to ensure that we are providing the types of homes that people want to live in," said Jo Richards, marketing and sales manager at Hillreed Homes. "Despite a recession, there is still a high demand for property, particularly new build and to gain planning permission in a growing town environment is enabling us to build within walking distance of the busy town centre."

I Fear For The Freshman
It seems to me we have a crisis of epic proportions on our hands. Something so horrible, I'm not even sure I can type it without bursting into tears. There may come a time where people will speak of this day in sadness; for now, subdued whispers must occupy this moment of unparalleled urgency.
As many of you are aware of, I am speaking about Muchas Gracias. Not the restaurant itself, per se. But the lack of freshman affiliation with the famous Oregon burrito.
Now there was a time when a kind-hearted upperclassman would befriend an incoming student and teach him the ways of Linfield. The really important things to know about, like Cat Cabs and football games and to not mix liquor and wine together (I WISH I'd learned that freshman year). And, of course, Muchas Gracias. A small, podunk, dirty restaurant run by some of the friendliest people you'll meet at 3 am. Open forever and serving Hispanic food that doesn't resemble mush (Taco Bell/Dillin both can't claim that), it's been a staple of every Linfield student who's hungry past midnight.
It is with sadness that I note that freshman don't seem to be aware of this gloriousness yet. Most of the freshman I've spoken to are aware of Muchas, but haven't been given an opportunity to indulge themselves yet. Considering it's one of the most important rite of passage at Linfield, this needs to rectified.
Immediately. Colloquium advisors, take your freshman out this coming week. Peer advisors, workstudy students, all others who actually read this blog (so nobody?), come together and seek out students who haven't truly experienced the unique state of being a giant burrito offers. Let them taste the joyous flavor of a thousand calorie pile of steak, fries, and more steak, wrapped in a flour tortilla bigger than your hand.
Soon, we will all be swimming in finals and there will be little time to enjoy one of the greatest gifts Linfield has to offer. There is still time. Break through the ignorant protests of all who refuse and guide them to something bigger than themselves. And remember that while it may be a big burrito, they still don't accept credit cards for less than $5. Luckily it isn't just about a burrito, it's about bringing change into their lives.
Make a difference in a freshman's college experience. Hey, it beats actually getting to know them, right?Matt Olson, columnist Matt Olson can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

I know a lot of people think Zimmer wouldn't make a good head coach but I think we should give him a try. Another option
Hue Jackson. I know he was Oakland's head coach but he didn't really have a chance to stay out there too long.
He know how to get players fired up. I believe he went 8-8 his first and only season out there.
I remember him coaching our receivers for a couple years and they turned out good.
Then there's Zimmer. I think he's one of the best DC in the game but that doesn't mean anything
Dick Leabau is a great DC but he never really was a good head coach here. So basically what I'm saying is I think we
need to give somebody a shot. It's been long enough. Marvin Lewis is a decent DC at best. Sure had his years in
Baltimore but those days are long gone. Let me know how u all fill.

"Loving The Addict" is author Raven Storm's cathartic attempt to move forward while helping other women
CHICAGO, Nov. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ – After having been beaten and abused for several years, Raven Storm finally sought help, and as part of her recovery process was advised by a therapist to "write it all down" as a cathartic exercise. Her random notes have become a 460-page book titled "Loving The Addict," which was released recently by iUniverse.

(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121119/PH15252-b)
"I wrote 'Loving The Addict' primarily to let other women who are in an abusive relationship know that they are not alone," Storm explained. "There are sources out there to turn to, to make it through the abuse, and that there can be a light at the end of the tunnel.
"The book contains every aspect of my ordeal, including love, lust, sex, violence, betrayal, drug lords, drug and alcohol addiction, police chases, thievery, physical and emotional abuse, hostage situation, and ultimately my survival."
Storm, 35, was formerly a licensed cosmetologist in Chicago, IL. Since its release in October, her book has become a best seller with a five-star rating on various book sales charts. The interest in her book has prompted Storm to establish a website (www.loving-the-addict.com) to provide crucial resources and positive messages offering help and guidance to others in abusive relationships.
Storm is highly involved with online efforts to stop abuse, serving as the admin for Put a Stop to Domestic Violence. She is also on the National Coalition for Domestic Violence and the Illinois Coalition for Domestic Violence in addition to being active on 82 other domestic violence coalition websites and Facebook pages.
The author is currently preparing for a book-signing tour that will begin in January. "Loving The Addict" is available through Amazon and at bookstores throughout the world.
iUniverse Inc., publishing and author marketing services provider, is a leading book marketing, editorial services, and supported self-publishing company based in Indiana.

ATLANTA — In the Orlando Magic's postgame locker room Sunday night, Stan Van Gundy turned to his assistant coaches and asked a question. Should they take their players directly from Orlando International Airport to Amway Center upon arrival in Florida and shoot baskets until their teamwide shooting woes disappear?
Van Gundy was only half-joking.
Atlanta Hawks 88-85 Sunday night at Philips Arena.
Only eight teams in NBA history have accomplished what the Magic will try to do now: win a best-of-seven series after trailing three games to one. Dwight Howard boiled down the talk ahead to a simple message to his teammates.
"I just told 'em if they don't believe that we can still win, stay in Atlanta," Howard recalled.
"We've just got to keep believing, and guys have got to make shots, simple as that."
But making shots is anything but simple these days for the Magic.
They missed 21 of their 23 attempts from 3-point range Sunday. That abysmal performance lowered their 3-point percentage so far in these playoffs to just under 22 percent.
"I think mental toughness right now for us as much as physical toughness is huge," Van Gundy said. "It's gotten contagious now. Nobody makes a shot. I think it's taken the wind out of our sails a little bit. I think our guys are competing and battling."
Appropriately enough, Game 4 ended on a missed 3-pointer.
The Magic inbounded the ball to Gilbert Arenas with 10.5 seconds left, and Arenas swung the ball to Hedo Turkoglu. The Hawks' Al Horford knocked the ball away, and although Turkoglu recovered it, he had no choice but to take a desperation shot.
It clanged off the back left side of the rim, sending the announced crowd of 19,490 and the Hawks into a frenzy.
"We came into this series with the mindset that we were going to play confident regardless of the situation," said Atlanta guard Joe Johnson, who scored the Hawks' final 10 points. "We're just trying to ride the wave right now."
Game 5 is scheduled for 7:30 Tuesday night at Amway Center.
"We have to put everything into Tuesday night," Magic guard J.J. Redick said. "If we do that, then we can come back here and try to get a road win on them. That's really got to be our focus: take care of Tuesday night. Maximum effort."
In Game 4 Sunday, the Magic once again fell into an early deficit.
Howard picked up his second personal foul with 5:41 remaining in the first quarter, and the play immediately changed the tone of the game. He sat out the remainder of the quarter, and what had been only a three-point Hawks lead turned into an eight-point Hawks advantage.
Orlando didn't lead once all night, and Atlanta raced out to a 16-point advantage in the second quarter and a 13-point edge in the third quarter.
Gilbert Arenas and Howard helped bring the Magic back.
Horrible shooting night hinders Orlando Magic as they fall to Hawks in Game 4

The injury ravaged Minnesota Vikings picked up their fourth win of the season with a 48-30 plucking of the Philadelphia Eagles. For the first time this season, the Vikings found balance on offense with a solid passing attack led by Matt Cassel, and a three touchdown rushing game by third string back Matt Asiata.
"Alright, how about those Vikings," head coach Leslie Frazier said. "Terrific job by our players, great win against a good opponent. We had so many guys step up in the absence of some of our starters it just makes you proud of every one of our players. We completed a game and didn't make it close at the end."
Cassel finished the game with 382 yards and a pair of touchdowns through the air, giving the Vikings only the third game since 2010 that their quarterback has thrown for over 300 yards. Cassel found his favorite target Greg Jennings in the first quarter, connecting on a 57 yard touchdown to open up a 7-0 lead. Jennings put up a career high with 163 yards receiving on 11 catches in the win.
"That's why we brought Greg in here to have days like this," Cassel said. "He's a special player and does a great job of getting open and we just continue to work hard and it showed today. It makes my job easy, when he gets open and I put the ball in his hands and he makes plays."
The defense was able to intercept Eagles cornerback Nick Foles and also held the NFL's leading rusher LeSean McCoy to just 38 yards on the ground in the win, but watched as DeSean Jackson put up 195 yards and a score on 10 catches in the passing game.
The story of the game however was Asiata who carried 30 times for 51 yards but his 3 touchdowns tied a Vikings record and kept the Eagles at a comfortable distance. He scored his second touchdown after Philadelphia had cut the lead to five points late in the third quarter. His third put the exclamation mark on a day that no one saw coming.
"I miss him and I wish he was here, but I felt him today," Asiata said. "It means a lot to me. I just come in here and grind and don't say nothing and just take whatever the coaches and people ask me to do and I'm going to go do it."
With two games remaining, the Vikings (4-9-1) hit the road next week at Cincinnati before returning home for the final game at Mall of America Field on Sunday December 29th against Detroit.

Experts put Patriots, Jets ahead of Dolphins in AFC East
By Brian Biggane
Tim Graham, the former Palm Beach Post Dolphin beat writer who now covers the AFC East for ESPN.com, has written an interesting piece sizing up the division that states two teams have the inside track for next season, and neither is the Dolphins.
After interviews with insiders such as CBS analyst Steve Tasker, ESPN analyst Herm Edwards, Miami sportscaster (and ex-Dolphin) Kim Bokamper and Boston sportscaster (and former Patriot) Steve DeOssie, Graham concludes that while New England might be the favorite going in, the Patriots' window for success is getting smaller after what the New York Jets accomplished this past year, and particularly this postseason.
As for Miami, the story, which can be found here, says "the Dolphins are on the rise but still trail the Jets and the Patriots."
Most of the story has to do with the fortunes of the Patriots and Jets and the growing perception that New York is well-positioned to move into contender status as long as quarterback Mark Sanchez can take a step forward in his development next season.
Bokamper is somewhat skeptical. "The thing that keeps me from saying (the Jets have overtaken the Patriots) is what to make of Mark Sanchez. You've seen the good and the bad with him. It's hard to give the free pass on him being the next guy."
Dolfans certainly can't be happy that, more than two full years into the Bill Parcells regime, their team is still looking down only on a Buffalo team that has been the epitome of disorganization of late while looking up at New England and New York.
