CRON Jobs Give WordPress Users Peace of Mind
If you've never had a website go missing, then you're very lucky. Your host can have a network error or hardware failure that loses your site's files. A malicious hacker can penetrate your FTP server and replace your site with files of his choice. You might get curious about a new plugin, install it, and break your site to pieces in the process. No words really describe the panic you feel when you realize your website is gone!
If your host allows you to use CRON jobs, you can protect yourself from all those things by running a daily backup of your database and web site files. If you lose your site for any reason, you can put it right back in a few minutes.
A CRON job is script that your web server executes at a specified time. CRON comes from the word chronograph, and it is a time-based job scheduler for LINUX based operating systems. Most WordPress sites are running on such an operating system. If you have access to a CRON scheduler through your hosting control panel or have command-line access to your hosting server, you should be able to write a shell script to back up your database and site files.
The first thing you will need is a shell script. The script will connect to your database, export the whole thing to a file, and zip the file up so you can store it safely somewhere. Then, it will zip up all your website files.
If you have a host panel where you can create and edit a file, you can do this there. Otherwise, open any non WYSIWYG text editor and create a file called daily_backups.sh. The .sh file extension indicates this is a shell script file.
export TERM
NOWDATE=`date +%a` # Sets the date variable format for zipped file: Sun
clear # clears terminal window
echo "Hi, $USER!"
mysqldump --opt -Q -h your-website-host-name --user=your-db-user-name --password=your-db-password your-database-name | gzip -v9 - > /www/public_html/backups/MySQL-$NOWDATE-yourwebsite.sql.gz
The first line is an indicator to the server for which shell processing language to use. Your server might require
#!/bin/bash or something else there. Use
echo $SHELL from the command prompt to determine your shell type if you have command line access.
TERM instruction tells the server what terminal type it is communicating with; in this case, a text terminal.
Next we create a variable named
NOWDATE and use a little script magic to set it to be equal to the abbreviation for the current day of the week e.g. Sun, Mon, Tue, etc.
mysqldump command will "dump" the entire database including create procedures and insert procedures for all the current data.
your-website-host-name with your website host name for your database. You can find this in your wp-config file if you don't know it.
your-db-name with actual values. Again, these values are likely exactly what they are in your wp-config file.
/www/public_html/ with whatever your hosting account's root path is.
yourwebsite with some meaningful name.
Now, save the file. You need to set the permissions on the file so that it is executable. If your cpanel has a cron scheduler, just add this file to the list of files it runs. If you need to edit your crontab from command line, see this tutorial.
To back up your site files, as well as your database, add a few more lines to your script.
echo "Zipping wordpress directory structure..."
tar -czf $HOME/backups/$NOWDATE.mywebsite.tar.gz $HOME/public_html/*
Hopefully, you do have a directory outside your public web root so that your backup files are stored in a location that is not accessible via the internet.
The tar command will pack the files up into a tarball for you (like a zip archive).

How To: Hack WordPress Theme Template Pages
The key to being able to display exactly what you want in WordPress is understanding WordPress theme template pages. These are the theme files that display pages, not the ones that perform functions like comments, sidebar, etc. Most of us don't use the WordPress default theme that comes with installation, and end up downloading a free theme from the Internet. This is a great way to customize your blog, but not all theme authors code their theme the same way. The capabilities of that theme largely depend on how much time the web designer took to code it, in addition to their knowledge of WordPress itself.
I'm going to explain everything you need to know to be able to customize all your theme pages any way you want, and this will give you enough information to begin coding your own theme as well. Even if you're an 'expert' theme coder, you should learn something new from this article.
How WordPress Works
The most important thing you could learn about WordPress is the Template Hierarchy, or – "the order in which WordPress calls pages". The ONLY file that is required in the PHP files of any WordPress theme is the "index.php". That's it! That one file could handle every single function WordPress performs (if you wanted it to). Or, you could have a WordPress theme that had a PHP theme for for every single WP function (or anything in between).
The Order of Things
Every time a WordPress page is called the WP 'engine', if you will, determines (through process of elimination) what kind of page it is. It's kind of like a "where am I?" function. WordPress says "what page am I…" and in turn tries to call pages in a specific order. If WP doesn't find the PHP file it needs it just defaults to the "index.php" file and uses it instead. There are 9 basic kinds of pages WordPress looks for first:
Am I the Home Page?
If WP thinks it's on the home page it will look for "home.php" first, and "index.php" second.
Am I Post Page?
(Single) post pages look for "single.php" first, and then default to "index.php".
Am I a 'Paged' Page?
(Static) or 'paged' pages in WordPress look for a "pagetemplate.php" first (if assigned when published), "page.php" second, and default to "index.php" last.
Am I a Category Page?
When WordPress determines it's on a category page first it looks like a category specific ID page, such as "category-7.php". If it doesn't find that it next looks for a "category.php" (which would be used on every category page). If that's not there is searches for "archive.php", and last it defaults to "index.php".
Am I a Tag Page?
If WordPress is on a tag page it tries to load "tag-slug.php" first, with 'slug' being the name of your tag. If your tag is 'wordpress hacks' the tag slug page would be "tag-wordpress-hacks.php". It that's not available, WP next looks for "tag.php" which would load for all tag pages, then "archive.php", and if that's not there last it defaults to "index.php".
Am I an Author Page?
If your blog has multiple authors, first it looks for "author.php" to display the details. If that's not there, it tries to load "archive.php", and last it defaults to "index.php".
Am I an Archive Page?
Archive pages are loaded when WordPress loads a date based page for previous posts. First it tries to load "date.php", then "archive.php", and last it defaults to "index.php".
Am I a Search or 404 Page?
If WP determines it's on a search (results) or 404 (not found) page the it tries to load either search.php or 404.php. If not, the default is once again "index.php".
Am I an Attachment?
Out of all the WordPress theme template pages, the attachment page is probably the one used least, and I have to admit – I've not seen a single one of these in any of the hundreds of themes I've downloaded. WordPress uses these special pages usually for uploaded content, which would explain why it first looks for "image.php", "audio.php", "video.php", or "application.php". Then it tries to find "attachment.php" or "single.php", and if none of those are available it also defaults to "index.php".
Inner Workings of WP Theme Templates
As I said before, you could use a single index.php file to handle the 9 types of pages. You would simply code in some conditional tags, like I showed you in the last tutorial I wrote here on WP Hacks. A single index.php would then just contain code to say if is_home, do this, if is_single do that, etc. That's a lot of code for just one page, and a bit unorganized – and it doesn't leave a lot of room for customization.
Coincidentally, like WordPress searches for 9 basic pages – each theme template page also contains 9 basic WordPress elements:
- a header call
- opening of 'the loop'
- a call to get the permalink and (some) meta
- a call telling WordPress what to get
- a call to get either the content or an excerpt
- (maybe) more meta
- closing of 'the loop'
- a sidebar call
- a footer call
Those are only the WordPress elements, of course the PHP code to make them work is usually scattered throughout the appropriate HTML code make your theme's layout and graphic design work properly. I'm going to explain these elements a bit more so you can understand how you can customize (or create) nearly any theme template page.
Header, Sidebar, and Footer calls
I'm going to handle all 3 of these elements at once, since they are all basically the same. When you see this code in a template:
<?php get_header(); ?>
WordPress is simply opening the "header.php" file. The same is true for get_sidebar (sidebar.php) and get_footer (footer.php). You could have multiple headers, footers, or sidebars, see the earlier link above for conditional tags.
Opening of "the loop"
The infamous "WordPress Loop" is when a call goes out to the database to do something until WordPress says "stop", i.e. 'get me the most recent full text posts in their entirety'. The structure of 'the loop' changes depending on what kind of page your displaying, and each of the 9 basic types of pages WordPress tries to load has a 'loop'.
The opening of the loop generally looks like this:
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
You may see it broken down with have_posts on one line to define conditional tags with the while and the_post on another, but it's still the opening of the loop, and it's pretty much the same in all pages. One way to use the multi-line loop opending is to place a parameter between "if have_posts" and the rest by using query_posts in between to show only a single post, posts from a time period, the last post only, posts from certain categories, or even change the ordering of posts being iterated in the loop.
A Call to Get the Permalink and (some) meta
The very last section of the loop opening (the_post) actually makes individual data available through each iteration of the loop. This data referred to usually as "post meta" because it's descriptors and identifiers for the individual content being looped through. Typically things like the permalink (URL), title, date, etc. I say 'some' meta, because most themes show some things before the individual post content, and then some after – such as categories and tags.
Here's a short list of things you can call in post meta: the_permalink, the_ID, the_title, the_time, the_author, the_author_email, the_author_posts_link, the_category, single_cat_title, the_tags, single_tag_titls, edit_post_link, comments_popup_link, comments_rss_link
Example code you might see for post meta would be something like this:
<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?>

A Call Telling WP What to Get
Next WordPress will decide how much of the actual individual post content to get for you. How much is gathered from the database depends on whether your look uses "the_content" (to get it all) or "the_excerpt" (to get part of it).
(Maybe) more meta
As I previously mentioned, the common things to see after a post are assigned categories or tags, and sometimes you see an "edit" link here as well. Some themes even put date published meta after the post content.
Closing of 'the loop'
The code looks like this:
<?php else : ?>
<?php endif; ?>
Typically it's on more than one line in case you want to build an option in, such as a message "Sorry, we didn't find anything". After the sidebar, before the sidebar and footer calls, is where you typically find the "next" and "previous" navigation links.
Bastardized Loops?
Well, just because most loops look like the examples I just gave you, doesn't mean you can't bastardize them in just about any way you can imagine. I recommend you read the WP Codex page The Loop in Action for examples of archive, category, and single post formats – as well as static home page.
The Codex official page for the loop has several examples of how to place multiple loops in one page.
Perishable Press has a great tutorial for multiple loops, multiple columns – if you want to try and split your content up. They also have some great loop templates, in addition to a great tutorial of horizontally sequenced posts in two columns.
Armed with just a tiny bit of knowledge, you can hack just about any WordPress theme template page to do just about whatever you want! Now that you understand (in great detail) how WordPress calls it's pages and how the loop works, you can conquer any task! Have fun customizing your blog's theme!
How To: Use WordPress Conditional Tags to Hack Your Theme
By using simple conditional tags – it's pretty easy to add some very basic hacks to your WordPress theme to have more control over what's displayed when.
Here are some things you could do with a conditional tags:
- Display something only on certain pages
- Display something only on certain categories
- Display something in header and footer only at certain times
- Display something only on sub-children of particular pages
- Display something only in the WP dashboard
- Display something in the sidebar only when certain conditions are met
- Do something only when there's a "sticky" post
- Do something only when a "page template" is used
- Do something only for "author pages"
- Display something only on search or 404 pages
Let's say you want something to display only on the homepage, or just category pages, or maybe just your 404 (not found) page – it's quite easy to do. You don't have to be a hardcore programmer (I'm not for sure) to implement these very simple theme hacks.
Where to Use Conditional Tags
It all depends on your your theme is structured. I've seen WordPress themes that a single "index.php" file handle just about everything, and other ones that use only the home.php, index.php, single.php, archive.php, and category.php files. You could handle everything with a bunch of code in one file if you want using conditional tags, have individual files for each thing, or any combination in between.
Most themes I've encountered usually have an index.php and a single.php only. If you want to know what pages WordPress looks for first in a theme before defaulting to the "index.php", read the official WordPress Template Hierarchy page.
Conditional tags are great because you can use them both in and out of the loop. You can use them directly in theme pages, but you could also use them in your header, footer, comments, and sidebar files. Actually the sky is the limit, and you have only your own imagination to limit you!
Conditional Tag Examples
The worst thing I see on most posts about conditional tags is that they don't have a lot of examples for you to draw from – so I'll try to give you a few ideas to get you started…
If This is XYZ page
One of the most common ways to use a conditional tag is to add a filter of sorts to tell WordPress "if I'm on 'XYZ' WP page – then do this. The most common reason would be maybe to show certain things (ads, text, messages, graphics, scripts, flash) in certain places.
For example, let's say you want to display a message to visitors on your home page only…
<?php if (is_home()) { ?>
Welcome, you will only see this message on my homepage!
<?php } ?>
replace "is_home" with "is_front_page", "is_single", "is_sticky", "is_page", "is_page_template", "is_category", "is_tag", "is_author", "is_date", "is_archive", or "is_attachment" to make your message show up on nearly any WordPress page. Remember, once the condition is met, you can "do" anything – from including a file to showing special graphics, running a script, anything! You could use this condition for example to show an ad on just your homepage, or just single pages.
If this is XYZ page show this, else show that
The nice thing about conditional tags is the fact that you can have as many conditions as you want…like this:
<?php if (is_home()) { ?>

Show this!

<?php } elseif (is_single()) { ?>

Show this instead!

<?php } elseif (is_category()) { ?>

Show something different!

<?php else { ?>

Show this if no conditions are met

<?php } ?>
OR – you could even structure it in such a way that you lump some conditions together like this:
<?php if (is home() || is_single() || is_category() || is_page()
|| is_archive() { ?>

Show this on all those pages!

<?php } ?>
The double-pipe or || in the code signifies "OR", so WordPress knows, if this is home, or a single page, or a category page, or a "page" page, or an archive page – then so something.
Show Everywhere, Except…
Sometimes you want to show something everywhere possible except just one or two places…
<?php if (is_home()) {
else { ?>

Show this everywhere!

<?php } ?>
With this code we just say if it's "home" do nothing, else show do this. You could add multiple conditions (exclusions) to this using the || OR operator as in previous examples.
Getting even more specific
One thing I hadn't mentioned was that you could pass additional parameters to the conditional tags for even finer grained control. For example, instead of targeting are single post pages with "is_single", you could actually target just one using any of these formats:
is_single('25') // uses posts ID
is_single('Title of my post') //uses the exact title of the post
is_single('title-of-my-post') //uses the permalink of the post
is_single(array(25,'this title','this permalink')) //uses when any of the 3 are true
You can use similar parameters for paged pages, template pages, categories, tags, etc. The official WordPress Conditional Tag page in the Codex lists them all.
Force WordPress Functions for Certain Conditions
Have you ever not wanted to add people to your blogroll because their link will display on EVERY SINGLE page of your WP powered site? That's an easy hack with conditional tags, because you could hack your sidebar to display your blogroll ONLY on your homepage like this:
<? php if (is_home()) {
You could modify this to display just about anything in the sidebar for whatever conditions you want. Let's take this a bit further though – let's say that maybe I want a special header or footer when certain conditions are met? You can do that too…
<? php if (is_home() || is_single() || is_page()) {
elseif (is_category() || is_tag()) {
include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/header2.php');
elseif (is_404() || is_search())
include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/header3.php');
} ?>
Using that example code you could have as many different headers, footers, or sidebars as you wanted and you could include them for whatever conditions you specified. Just replace get_header with get_footer or get_sidebar, and edit the rest include the files you want.
Using Conditional Tags to Change Styles
So far my conditional tag examples have been to show you how code conditions to do this or include that. Another very simple (and powerful) was to use conditional tags is to just use them for coding style. You could have any element (paragraph, div, heading) change colors or font size or anything related to style when certain conditions are met.
Let's take a very simple example, maybe your pages have content contained within one div like this:

<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
In most themes, that main "div" is styled the same way on EVERY single page of the theme. Maybe you want it styled one way for your homepage, but another for paged pages, single posts, archives, etc. What you do in this case is to write different classes in your stylesheet for each and call them something like "single", "archive", and "paged" – and then you code it like this:
<div id="content" <?php if (is_home()) { ?> class="home"
<?php } elseif (is_page()) { ?> class="paged"
<?php } elseif (is_single()) ?> class="single"
<?php } elsif (is_archive()) { ?> class="archive" <?php } ?> >
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
You use any variation of this to control any element of your theme at will under nearly any condition. This would also be a great way to control your Post title and meta and have it display different things on different parts of your WordPress powered site.
I think mostly that the power of conditional tags is widely underutilized. Many of us just take for granted the way a theme works and looks, and forget that with just a few strokes of code and some imagination – we can change just about anything under the sun in our WordPress theme! I'd like to see some comments on what kinds of things you've used conditional tags for in your WordPress site (code samples welcomed!).
30+ WordPress Video Tutorials
Are you a visual learner (a person who learn better through viewing rather than reading)? One of the challenges when writing WordPress hacks is trying to take something you know how to do and explain it in a way that others will understand. A well explained hack will allow just about anyone to successfully implement the hack on their own WordPress blogs.
For visual learners, this can sometimes be difficult. For these people, a better solution is typically to watch one of the many WordPress video tutorials you can find scattered throughout the internet. We've posted a few here before, but I wanted to draw your attention to a recent post over at Six Revisions where they've covered 30+ WordPress video tutorials. You'll find a bunch of the better WordPress video tutorials from around the internet, all in one convenient location!
How to: Using Thumbnails in your Sidebar "Recent Post" Listing
On the WP Recipes forum, a guy just asked me how I managed to insert thumbnails on the recent post widget located on the sidebar of my blog Cats Who Code. That's a lot simpler than it seems.
If you'd like to see a live demo of this tutorial, just click here.
1) – Make sure you're using a custom field in your posts, with the thumbnail url.
There's a lot of tutorials available online to add a custom field to your pots. This one is good in my opinion, so you should read it if you don't know how to define a custom field.
2) – Download the required plugins
In order to customize your recent posts widget, you have to download the Recent Posts plugin by Sebastian Schmieg.
You'll also need to download and install the Post-Plugin Library, which contains all the php functions needed by the Recent Posts plugin.
3) – Upload and activate the plugins
Once you downloaded the plugin and the library, unzip the files and upload it to your wp-content/plugins directory. Then, login to your WordPress dashboard, Go to "Plugins" and activate both the library and the Recent Posts plugin.
4) – Configure the plugin
After having the plugin and the library uploaded and activated, you have to configure the options so you'll be able to display the post thumbnail on your sidebar.
To do so, login to your WordPress dashboard and navigate to "Settings", "Recent Posts".
On "General", you can tell the plugin how many posts to be displayed, if it should display posts and pages or only posts, and a lot more.
Once you configured the "General" options to fits your needs, go to the "Output" options. In order to display your custom field thumbnail on your sidebar, you have to enter a bit of html as well as the special parameter to embed the custom field.
Here's the code that I entered:

{link}

The special parameter {custom:Image} tells the plugin to embed the Image custom field. Don't forget to replace Image with the name of your custom field!
5) – Add the widget to your sidebar
Simply go to "Design", "Widgets" and add the Recent Posts + widget to your sidebar. Visit your blog, your thumbs are showing in the sidebar along with your recent posts!
How to: Upgrade your WordPress Blog in a Minute via SSH
Having to upgrade your WordPress install every time a new version is released is necessary, but also very boring. If you have a SSH access to your server, here's a very quick way to upgrade your WordPress install.
This is probably the most important step of this whole tutorial: always backup your WP Database and files. This tutorial have been tested, however I won't be held responsible for any kind of data loss.
Once done, you can connect to your server by using SSH. On Mac and Linux platform you can use the Terminal, on Windows I recommend using Putty.
Get the latest WordPress version available:
wget http://wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz
Uncompress it:
tar xfz latest.tar.gz
Delete the wp-admin and wp-includes directories:
rm -rf ./wp-includes/ rm -rf ./wp-admin/
Go to the wordpress directory:
cd wordpress/
Now, it's time to copy the downloaded files to your existing WP install, by overwriting old files:
cp -rpf -f * ../
Once done, come back to the WordPress directory and remove the downloaded files:
cd .. rm -rf ./wordpress/ rm -f latest.tar.gz
Visit your blog and upgrade the database (if needed). That's all, your blog is now up to date and the whole process didn't took more than a minute or two!

How To: Building a Google Custom Search Engine (GCSE) into Your WordPress Blog
Over the holiday weekend I decided to spend some time cleaning up a few of my websites and while doing this, I ended up installing Google's Custom Search Engine on a couple of my WordPress blogs (as of this post I haven't done this on WP Hacks yet, but will probably end up doing so here as well).
For people wondering how to easily install Google's Custom Search Engine (GCSE) on their WordPress blog, here are two resources I recommend:
- Build Your Google Custom Search Engine – The first step is to actually create your Google Custom Search Engine. The post by Maki over at Dosh Dosh does a GREAT job of explaining how to do this. Towards the end Maki explains how to actually integrate it into your WordPress blog, but rather than go through all those steps, you'll want to instead check out the second step.
- Integrate your Google Custom Search Engine into WordPress – Once you've built your custom search engine, head over to this post and figure out a quick and easy way to integrate it into your WordPress blog. This method ONLY requires you to alter the searchform.php and search.php files (which most themes come with), so it is really easy.
Why Use Google's Custom Search Engine?
With the current setup of the WordPress search engine, posts are displayed with the most recent post first based upon the search term. Using Google's Custom Search Engine, it will use Google's search algorithm to display your posts with the most relevant post on top and you can actually integrate it into your WordPress blog, so it looks natural. Using this also allows you to display Google AdSense ads, which can earn you money on some blogs.
The main downside with this method is that Google has to actually index the post before it will appear in your blog's search results, but that won't be a problem for most blogs. It will just add a small delay before posts appear in your search results.
Building a Multi-Author Blog with WordPress
Because WPHacks.com is a multi-author blog, it seems like at least once every week I get an email from our readers asking for more information about how to set up a multi-author blog. How do you set one up? How do you find people to write for you?
Over the past year I've written about a variety of tools, hacks, and plugins which anyone can use to build their WordPress installation into a WordPress blog, but they are scattered around a little bit. If you're looking for a consolidated post which provides a lot of this information in one place, I'm going to recommend a recent post over at Hongkiat which provides 35 tips and tricks to manage your multi-author blog.
A few notable plugins which I have not covered here yet:
- Co-Authors Plugin – Gives you the ability to assign multiple authors to a post.
- List Author Widget – Displays a list of authors in your WordPress Sidebar Widgets linking to the authors.php page.
- Draft Notification – Emails the admin whenever a new draft is saved or post is pending approval.
- Author Advertising – Allows revenue sharing among blog administrators. Works with a number of advertising programs, including AdSense, Yahoo Publisher Network, etc.

Tips for Speeding Up Your WordPress Installation
Find your WordPress blog is loading slow? Do you ever get a "MySQL server has gone away" message? Maybe your WordPress Admin Panel is running slow? Even if none of those apply to you, the higher the traffic your WordPress blog receives, the more important it is to have an optimal setup.
In case you'd like to maximize your blog's performance, Vladimir Porlovac has published a pretty good WordPress Optimization Guide which contains a number of great tutorials and tips for WordPress users.
Here are the 10 topics which are covered in the post:
- Check the Connection
- Check your (Vista) System
- Check the Plugins
- Check your Theme
- Optimize Database Tables
- Turn off Post Revisions
- Implement Caching (WordPress Cache, MySQL Optimization, PHP Opcode Cache)
- "MySQL server has gone away" workaround
- Fixing posting not possible problem
- Other reasons for slow posting
A few of these steps can be accomplished via WordPress plugins, but overall it is a well written and useful post.
Fixing the Unresponsive Script Problem in WordPress 2.5+
Yesterday in my post about moving your blog to a new domain, I mentioned that there is a problem that presents itself when posts are imported into WordPress 2.5 or later. A quick search determined that I wasn't the only one having this problem, so I decided to document how to fix this problem here (or at least how I was able to fix it).
Here are the steps I took to fix the problem with the unresponsive script in the Write panel (requires CPanel/PHPMyAdmin access):
- Please make a backup of your database in case you run into any problems. These are the steps that worked for me to fix the problem, but I can't guarantee they will work for everyone.
- Login in to your CPanel. This is usually found at http://yourdomain.com/cpanel/ and usually uses your FTP password.
- Access your PHPMyAdmin (in CPanel this is usually found at the bottom of the MySQL Databases page).
- Click on the MySQL database you created for your new WordPress installation in the menu on the left.
- Click on wp_postmeta in the list of tables on the left.
- Click the Browse icon.
- Click on the post_id tab once to sort the list from 0 to higher.
- Now you'll need to delete anything with a post_id of 0. Depending on how many posts were imported, there may be a lot of zeroes. I had about 600 of them to delete.
The best way to do this is to locate the boxes with "row(s) starting from record #" between them. In the front box put 100 (or whatever number of your choice) and always put 1 in the right box. Click Show. You can use the select all button and verify all of them are zero. Uncheck any that aren't zero and click Delete. Repeat until all zeroes are gone.
Now open your Write panel in your new blog's dashboard and everything should be good!

Reese Witherspoon, Arnold Oceng, Ger Duany, Corey Stoll, Kuoth Wiel, Sarah Paker, Writer Margaret Nagle, and Producers Talk THE GOOD LIE
by Sheila Roberts Posted 82 days ago
The Good Lie is an inspiring film about love, survival and triumph over adversity and a powerful reminder of what's really important in life. Philippe Falardeau directs the moving story of "The Lost Boys" who were uprooted by the brutal Sudanese Civil War that lasted from 1983 to 2005. Young orphans of war, both boys and girls, trekked thousands of miles on foot through hostile, treacherous terrain to escape the violence and find safety. Fifteen years later, a humanitarian effort would bring 3600 of them from Kenya's Kakuma refugee camp to America. The entertaining drama stars Reese Witherspoon, Arnold Oceng, Ger Duany, Emmanuel Jal, Corey Stoll, Kuoth Wiel, and Sarah Baker.
At a recent press conference in Nashville, Witherspoon, Oceng, Duany, Wiel, Stoll, Baker, screenwriter Margaret Nagle, producers Molly Smith, Thad Luckinbill and Trent Luckinbill, and UNICEF's Kent Page talked about the importance of telling the story with integrity, Nagle's exhaustive research, the lengthy development process, the struggle for financing, finding the right cast for the film's central roles, how the part of Carrie was written with Witherspoon in mind, why they chose not to play up the white girl coming to the rescue angle, how the African actors found making the film a difficult but rewarding experience, and their hope that it will raise awareness and create change. The film opens limited October 3rd and goes wide October 24th. Check out the interview after the jump:

In the Controversy Over Max Stark, the New York Post Gets It Right
New York's Satmar Jewish community is up in arms because the New York Post, America's greatest tabloid newspaper, ran a cover story with a head shot of the murdered man and the accompanying dialogue, "Who didn't want him dead?" Chaos ensued. Some members of the Hasidic Jewish community and public officials blasted the New York Post. Media headlines spilled over with words like "huge backlash," "anger," and "outrage."
But why should a person who was reviled in life be revered in death? And what about the man's victims? If nothing else, Menachem "Max" Stark, 39, was a slumlord who pissed off one too many people.
A friend of mine from middle school and high school, Michael Buchholz, had the unfortunate experience of being one of Max Stark's victims and a former tenant at 239 Banker Street.
Buchholz recently wrote in a Facebook post about his experience dealing with Stark, from a tenant's perspective:
"The shaft of the freight elevator [in the building] was dangerously close to collapsing … rats and other creatures roamed vacant, trash filled apartments freely. We came to learn none of the plumbing and general infrastructure had been updated since it was built almost 100 years ago. I personally had no windows, but boarded up holes in the walls of my 1,200 square foot apartment … I had no kitchen for a time, no heat, and occasionally no running water or electricity. I would frequently come home to find my door ajar, strangers inside cutting drywall just beside my bed, smoking cigarettes out one of the boarded up holes."
One day, "The Department of Buildings showed up at 239 Banker Street to vacate the property. This 'luxury' rental property had sewage leaking uncontrollably on the first floor, which was also the floor Mr. Stark decided to hide months worth of his tenants trash in — in unfinished apartments — rather than pay to have it picked up regularly."
"The inspector gave every tenant 4 hours to clear out everything they owned, then the doors would be barred. I was lucky enough to have family nearby, so in a dizzying and furious spell, I threw everything I owned into boxes and threw the boxes into a U-Haul to bring home. We left behind us 20 or more people who had no easy solution to their predicament."
"239 Banker Street magically rented out every apartment again, so clearly Mr. Stark had paid the fines associated with the building and moved on," writes Buchholz. The New York Timesand others reported on the same property, which many have switched owners at some point after Burchholz's experience.
Abominable. Horrible. Disgusting. And at this point, you may agree with the Post's headline.
"Justice was never served in this case, but there's a sense of anger and sadness suddenly evaporated from my mind. A torment has been put to rest in me. I hate to say both of the following statements: rest in peace Max Stark. Brooklyn is a better place to live without you," writes Buchholz.
I don't doubt that Stark was a decent man in the ultra-Orthodox Satmar Jewish community, as has been suggested in numerous media reports. Yes, he held some fundraisers in his home. Sure, he raised money to fund the reproductive propensity of the Satmar community. Therefore, it should come as no surprise that the Satmars are collectively furious and want this man's legacy protected. But why should they discount how the man made his money, which was from being one of New York's worst slumlords?
As Anna F's Yelp review of Max's real estate company demonstrates (with a lonely single star), "This company is the building management for an old apartment of mine. They are awful disrespectful slumlords. They took months to repair a leak, would not fix flood damage to the walls, closed off our roof access (which was an amenity I paid for), wouldn't fix the broken washing machines (also an amenity I paid for), and are assholes on the phone when you call with any issues (especially Max, whose actual name is Menachem Stark), especially if you are a woman. I had to call 311 to report their violations to the city many times, and still that did not help getting things repaired. Oh, and the rent in the building went up $1000 in two years."
Therefore, that "'Any number of people wanted to kill this guy," as one law enforcement source told the New York Post, is far from shocking. Heck, I would expect it.
It is purely laughable when Councilman David Greenfield said, "[W]e are disgusted, outraged and appalled that the New York Post would celebrate on their front page the murder of an innocent New Yorker."
The man was hardly innocent. He was not innocent to people that he did business with.
"Thousands of people have suffered because of the criminal practices of this man and his partners," Buchholz finishes. "With a tight grip on real estate throughout Brooklyn, you'd have a difficult time finding a building not owned by these men. In a time of rapid residential growth and a surge in the popularity of many Brooklyn neighborhoods, we as a community cannot afford to let these people swindle and endanger us, to shoddily build our homes and use the fortunes they've amassed to pay measly fines, bribe those who threaten to sue, sell the property they owe millions of dollars of loans on to another LLC they own, and seek out the next batch of unsuspecting tenants to ruin."
Even death isn't a reason to gloss over the truth.

12" Natural Finish Carbon Steel Wok 1 1
Good size and grip but requires work to "cure" from tarnish I followed instructions to de-lacquer the WOK's coat. I heated and smoked sunflower seed oil and followed that by scrubbing and scrubbing. The WOK turned brown and had to be heated and scrubbed with light oil several times to coat the Carbon Steel. SEVERAL TIMES. I cannot say that it was worth the price or effort to Cure or Season this WOK. Too much work to toss veggies, morsels of meat, etc. A teflon coated WOK would be better and friendlier. January 5, 2013

Cowboy Charcoal LLC
When choosing a grill, keep in mind that gas grills are greener than charcoal grills, which emit nearly three times the carbon. If nothing but that charbroiled flavor will do, at least skip the briquettes and go for lump charcoal (or natural charcoal). Standard briquettes are made from compressed wood by-products and contain additives, such as borax and sodium nitrate, that contribute to smog-forming pollution. Lump charcoal made from hardwood contains no additives and burns cleaner. You can also use lump charcoal ash to alkalize garden soil (a no-no for briquette ash). Keith Snow, author of The Harvest Eating Cookbook, recommends Cowboy All-Natural Lump Charcoal ($6.1 for an 8.8-pound bag), available at Amazon.com.

"Our inspection found that NHS Grampian is complying with most standards to prevent and control healthcare associated infection. Wards and clinical areas were clean, and good isolation facilities are available to ensure the risk of infection is reduced. We also identified areas for improvement including peripheral vascular catheter (PVC) documentation must record all the required information about insertion and maintenance of catheters. This will provide assurance that PVCs are being appropriately managed and reduce the risk of infection to patients."

Delaware Geological Survey Radiocarbon Database
Radiocarbon dates from 231 geologic samples from the offshore, coastal, and upland regions of Delaware have been compiled along with their corresponding locations and other supporting data. These data now form the Delaware Geological Survey Radiocarbon Database. The dates range from a few hundred years to approximately 40,000 yrs (40 ka) BP (before present). All dates younger than about 18,000 yrs have been calibrated using the method of Stuiver and Reimer (1993). A plot of the dates versus the elevations of the samples shows four distinct groupings: those associated with the rise of sea level during the Holocene, those from the uplands, those in modem stream valleys, and those older than the detectable range of present radiocarbon techniques. A fifth group of samples in the 20-38 ka range and from below present sea level are ambiguous and were previously used as evidence for a mid-Wisconsinan high sea stand (Milliman and Emery, 1968).

B9 Stratigraphy of the Sedimentary Rocks of Delaware
The stratigraphy of the Coastal Plain of Delaware is discussed with emphasis placed upon an appraisal of the stratigraphic nomenclature. A revised stratigraphic column for Delaware is proposed. Rock stratigraphic units, based mainly on data from certain key wells, are described and the published names which have been or which might conceivably be applied to those units are reviewed. In each case a name is chosen and the reasons for the choice are stated. The relationships between the column established for Delaware and the recognized columns for adjacent states are considered. The rock units of the Coastal Plain of New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland form an interrelated mass. However, profound facies changes do occur, particularly in the dip direction, but also along the strike. Thus, attempts to extend units established in the outcrop belt almost indefinitely into the subsurface have been unsatisfactory.
IS6 Delaware's State Boundaries
One hundred seventy-nine monuments help to mark Delaware's boundaries with Maryland, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. Although there are only four major boundaries, there are seven boundary lines that make up the confines of the State. They are the east-west boundary, or Transpeninsular Line; the north-south boundary, or the Tangent Line, Arc, and North lines;; the Delaware-Pennsylvania boundary, including the Top of the Wedge Line and the 12-mile Circle; and the Delaware-New Jersey boundary including the 1934 Mean Low Water Line and the Delaware Bay Line. Only the Transpeninsular, Tangent, Arc, North, 12-mile Circle, and 1934 Mean Low Water lines are monumented. The Delaware Bay Line is defined by the navigational
channel. The boundaries described here evolved through long, complex histories (see references). They are based largely on adjudication in England of conflicting claims by the Penns and the Calverts for the Pennsylvania and Maryland colonies.

The Journal Sentinel's team of Packers beat writers provide the latest news, notes and analysis
MCarthy says Cobb and Nelson pushed themselves in practice
Green Bay - Here is a summary of coach Mike McCarthy's post-practice comments Thursday preceded by the injury report:
- CB Tramon Williams (illness) - DNP
- WR Jordy Nelson (knee) - Full
- S Charles Woodson (collarbone)
- WR Randall Cobb (ankle) - full
- RB James Starks (knee) - limited
- DE Jerel Worthy (knee) - out
- WR Jarrett Boykin (ankle) - DNP
- Don't have a feel for Tramon Williams. Came in sick, was given medication and sent home.
- Cobb and Nelson both pushed it hard in practice and looked good.
- Concern of Nelson's injury is what it could turn into. Depend on examination.
- Don't know if Ponder is X factor. I just think so much more involved. QB position is critical no matter what. I think X factor is line play on both sides.
- Feel good about where we are as football team. Tough coming off a turf game. Pushed it hard outsdies on Wednesday. Had about 30 minutes outside today.
- Friday will be like a normal Saturday during a Sunday game week.
- Playoff games are different. Helps that Rodgers has played seven. Has played in cold, on road. Deifinitely helps you. Obviously, first time for Ponder, but football is still football.
- EDS done a good job with management and speed of getting line set. That's been a seamless transiiton. Saturday has been a great big brother to him. Physically, EDS is playing well.
- Great to have team healthy. Healthy at the right time. Tough to do the 46.
- No limitations on Charles.
- He's been pushing conditioning last five or six weeks. Has been practicing. It's just a transition into game mode. We'll keep an eye on him.
- Vikings live in cold. That's an advantage for them. They'll get off the plane and it will be the same. It's different for teams from southern climates.
- There are games when he would not defer if winning the coin toss. Talk about it today in game management meeting. That decision is made then. Depends on opponent.
And that's it.

Tramon Williams has come down with flu like symptoms. I wonder if he was coming down with it on Sunday and it slowed his game and put him in a fog.Hide replies
Could be his allergic reaction to having to tackle or plain tackle phobia.
Or perhaps Petersonenza.
TW must have been forced to view his pathetic tackling technique from Sunday's game over and over until it made him as sick as we all are frm having to watch it as it happened--or rather didn't happen.
"No limitations on Charles"... leading to severe limitations on Ponder.
Packers need to win turnover battle. That will decide the game. It's that simple. They can't let ducks Ponder throws up there land in hands of Vikings receivers and Rodgers can't let himself get blindsided.
Peterson has some history of fumbling. Hopefully the cold air and slicker football will mean some opportunities.
I like the fact that the team has been working on conditioning the past 5 or so weeks. I've always felt that many playoff games come down to the best conditioned team moreso than anything else. These games are both physical and emotional roller coasters that can leave you gassed in the 4th quarter. Here's to being in top shape!
(I say that as someone 30 pounds overweight who gets winded going up a flight of stairs)Hide replies
I'm pretty sure they were speaking on Woodson, not the entire team. Woodson wasn't playing so he was trying to push it from a conditioning aspect.
I've pushed my conditioning the last two weeks.Even threw in some 22 oz bottles so I could "feel the burn"
Any rumors on Chargers new coach P Man?
Williams has played so much better than last year but this makes you wonder: http://www.packersnews.com/article/20121231/PKR07/312310284/Christl-Baranczyk-analysis-Peterson-s-big-day-courtesy-Williams-timid-play?nclick_check=1
Don't really blame him for not wanting to tackle Peterson head on but he needs to at least turn him inside. Maybe MM should show team footage of Packers bottling up Sanders in play-off game. I think that was '94?
But there's a cautionary tale for Vikings fans with the one back that everybody respects, and it happens to include the Green Bay Packers. In 1994, Barry Sanders kicked off a four-year stretch of ridiculous performances by running for 1,883 yards on 331 attempts, leading the league in both yards per carry (5.7) and rushing yards per game (117.7). Although he had a 47-yard game against the Packers during his first game against Green Bay that year, his second appearance against them saw him run for 188 yards on 20 carries. You would have expected Sanders to be at his mercurial best when the Lions traveled to Green Bay for the wild-card game … and Sanders ran for -1 yards on 13 carries.7 It was the worst performance of Sanders's legendary career, and it came after a four-game stretch in which he ran the ball 72 times for 477 yards. He wasn't quite as hot as Peterson's been over the final quarter of the season, but nobody expected Sanders to have a bad game, let alone one with negative yardage.
7.This game was also, apparently, one of the roughest beats in playoff gambling history. The Packers were favored by 4.5 points but failed to cover when punter Craig Hentrich stepped out of the end zone to take a meaningless safety as time expired, turning a six-point lead into a four-point one.

Milk and Honey
Time Out says
Posted: Fri May 7 2010
The only clue is an "alterations" sign in the window (the space was formerly a tailor's shop). Even if you do find the graffitied door, you can't simply walk in—you must text or email to reserve. Still intrigued? You should be. This stealth speakeasy will transport you to the 1940s: Sinatra croons on the sound system, couples chat in semicircular booths, and candles offer the only light. Owner Sasha Petraske can readily mix more than 400 drinks; yours arrives on a gleaming silver tray with a slender block of hand-cut ice. If you're lucky enough to find the phone number, mind your manners when you arrive; house rules include "Gentlemen will not introduce themselves to ladies" and "Don't invite anyone you wouldn't leave in your apartment alone."

Did he try to convince you to stay?
What, if anything, would have had to have happened to make you want to stay?
I don't know. I don't know exactly even how to answer that. It just sort of was a decision I made. It wrapped up nicely for me with the 100th short and "Lazy Sunday 2." I'm excited to maintain a relationship with the show. And we'll see what happens.
You said this might not be the end of digital shorts for you. Care to elaborate?
Well, we'll see. It's obviously totally open-ended right now. I'm not going to be in the cast, but my hope is that there's times for me to come back if Lorne would have me. That's going to depend on what's going on with the show at any given moment, and week to week. I also hope that we make another Lonely Island record. If we make videos for that, I would love to have them still air at "SNL". I always consider that my first home. I don't want to put any pressure on Lorne. Whatever he wants to do. We're going to keep making short-form videos that are both musical and comedic in some way, shape or form.
And if they want to air them great, if not that's OK too.
Yeah. There's always YouTube. And possibly both.
You grew up loving Adam Sandler films. What about his movies do you like, and have you continued throughout his career? You mentioned this movie hearkening back to his early movies. Have you liked the new stuff as much as the old stuff?
I have. Certainly my sensibility, if you know any of my work, is a little closer to his earlier stuff. A little more wacky, surreal, dirty, etc. But I've enjoyed his other movies a lot. One of the crazier movies he's made recently is "[You Don't Mess with the] Zohan," which I love. That movie made me laugh a lot.
That made me laugh a lot too.
He high-fives a pelican within five minutes. It's like, "Oh, yeah, this is my kind of movie." [Laughs] But this movie definitely is the craziest thing he's done in a while. It's exciting because he wears many hats. He can make family movies, he can make dirty movies, he can make "Punch-Drunk Love," which is in my opinion one of the best film films made over the last 10 or 15 years. It's an incredible movie and he's incredible in it. He has that range and he chooses to try a bunch of different things. I appreciate what he does in all of them in a different way. But from a comedy perspective this is my favorite version. [Laughs]
Do you think people take stuff like this too seriously? I'm sure people are already grumbling about the teacher-student relationship in "That's My Boy," and this wouldn't be the first Adam Sandler movie you could look at where overweight characters generate some laughs or there are some potentially sexist views, depending on who's watching. Should people forget it and laugh?
I think if that's the kind of thing that bugs you, this probably isn't your taste. Everyone has their own personal sensibility. The Happy Madison movies are a very specific tone. This one certainly is the closest in a while that is mine, I would say, which is why I was so excited to do it. Like it was definitely the version of Sandler that I connect with the most. I enjoy all of his stuff in different ways. To be upset about a movie like this would be to be upset about a movie like "Wedding Crashers" or "The Hangover" or something. It's a hard-R, shocking, crazy party movie, that's just what it is. If you're in the mood for that, crack a brewski and go to the theater. And I feel like the majority of people that see it do really enjoy it and laugh their asses off. My family came to the premiere. They're not uptight, but my mom's in her 60s and she laughed her ass off.
Your dad didn't say, "I should have been in this"?
[Laughs] Comes full circle. He got ripped off. He should have played Donny Burger.
Where he ate last night in Chicago: "I went to Lula Café last night. It was delicious. [We ordered] all kinds of schnizz. I had the duck, it was delicious. We had some kale. Had a couple cocktails. I'm not going to front. I'm not going to front on you. My dream is to go to Schwa. I've been waiting to go to Schwa and it's been hard. Because I'm barely here for a lot of time ever but that's my main goal in life at this point."
The chances Justin Timberlake will ever be an "SNL" cast member, even for a year: "Zero. [Laughs] He doesn't need to. He can just show up and destroy it and have everyone talk about him for 10 years ... There's a lot of people that are super talented that have other careers already. [Laughs] I think Timberlake's probably making pretty good money doing other stuff."
Guilty pleasure movie: "Gosh. If you say it's guilty pleasure it's implying it's not good. I mean I always like to talk about 'Spaceballs.' And 'UHF.' Those are two movies that I feel like are under-appreciated for how funny they are. What was the one with James Van Der Beeek with football? ["Varsity Blues."] I like that one. Me and Akiva used to watch that one. It's just entertaining. High school movies are entertaining. You can't help it."
A question he's always wanted to ask Conan: "[Laughs] I don't know. Conan's done so many incredible things, man. I'd love to just talk to him for hours about working at "The Simpsons" or early "SNL" when he was there. He's been a part of so many legendary moments in comedy at different places, including his own show, so there's pretty much no shortage of things I could ask Conan. [Laughs]"

Special fund created for traumatized Newtown workers
HARTFORD — Connecticut lawmakers created a special charitable fund on Wednesday to help cover the mental health costs of first responders, educators and other workers traumatized by the Newtown school massacre.
Both chambers of the General Assembly voted unanimously in favor of the bill, crafted by legislative leaders after meeting with Newtown police officers and other first responders who spoke of co-workers suffering from psychological trauma. Some of those workers felt they had to return to their jobs because traditional workers compensation does not cover most people for exclusively mental health issues.

Boy, 8, rescued from washing machine
An 8-year-old California boy is hospitalized after being found unresponsive in a washing machine filled with water at his home.
Sheriff's deputies were called to the home in Castaic at around 7:30 p.m. Wednesday after the boy's father found his son unconscious inside the top-loading machine, Los Angeles TV station KTLA reported.
At the time of the incident, the boy's mother was at the store, while his father was outside doing yard work.
The boy was alone in the house for about 20 minutes, sheriff's officials told KTLA.
When his father found him in the machine, he pulled the boy out and called 911.
Deputies found the boy lying in front of the washing machine, unresponsive and not breathing, sheriff's officials said.
The child was resuscitated and transported to a local hospital, where he was listed in critical but stable condition.

60-min boil time is the standard, but I am not sure why. I am thinking about a 45 min boil for an IPA. I am also going to do a 45 min mash, which I have done in the past successfully. With these shorter times, I think I can get down to close to 3 hours for an AG batch. Baring any mishaps!!
I know the mash works. With an IPA, is there any reason to do a 60 min boil?
I am not trying to accentuate malt flavor, it is mostly 2row anyway. I have calculated that I would have to add about 50% more hops at 45 min to get the same IBUs as adding at 60 min. I can get it to the volume I need in that time.
What are your thoughts? Is there any reason to do a 60 min boil? This would not be best for a Pils, or stout, but for an IPA?
I would not recommend the 45 minute boil as you will not get full hop utilization. The purpose of the 60 minute boil time is so your bittering hop can do it's job and pass on the needed IBUs to your beer. Since you are doing an IPA, I would definitely do the 60 minute boil. If you're interested in saving time you should check out the Aussie style brew in a bag. Basically one vessel brewing. Good Luck!

The main reasons for the standard 60-100 minute boil times are
1.) tradition
2.) hop utilization/elimination of flavor/aroma contribution by bittering hops
3.) getting rid of DMS
DMS might be a concern with a 45-minute boil, but generic 2-row malt isn't nearly as rich in DMS precursors as Pilsner malt is. I say give it a shot and report back.
My last brew (see high FG post) was boiled for 15 minutes without hops and bittering hops went in for 45 minutes, I find I get sufficient bittering with 1 oz of cascade hops as the bittering hop. (per 5.5 gallons)
I agree Arcane, DMS might be an issue.
I will be boiling off over 10%, and can cool it within 15 minutes, and it will have about 60 IBU, so I am not sure how perceptable it would be.
It'd be fine, I think. I boil for 60 minutes or longer, just because I need to reduce my volume sometimes. If you have a vigorous boil and don't have DMS issues, I think 45 minutes for a boil is sufficient.
I brewed a higher gravity IPA last week. I realized that my eff. was lower than usual, so there must be more sugar in the grains. So I sparged again with 2 gallons of water and got wort with a pre-boil SG of 1.026. I only boiled for 30 minutes to get an OG of 1.034. Hopped with .25 oz. 5.4% Cascades at 30 min and .25 oz. of Cascade at flame out. Got me 16 IBUs. Just an experiment to see what a low gravity mild pale ale would taste like.
As long as there is no worry about DMS and you accounted for less boil off, I don't see too much problem with a shorter boil. Only one way to find out - just do it! Make sure you post your results for the rest of us.
A HUGE reason for the boil is to denature and coagulate grain proteins for final beer clarification, shelf life, and stability along with other reasons mentioned. A sufficient boil is very important. I highly recommend boiling for AT LEAST 60 minutes but you do what you want.

2012 Toyota Camry: Leading, like always – Boston Overdrive –
The Camry has been totally redesigned for this model year and comes to market with a huge bulls-eye on its back.
Competition in the segment never has been so fierce. Traditionally, the Honda Accord is the Camry's number one rival. However, Toyota's seventh-generation Camry already is on the market and getting a running start with the redesigned Accord not due out until the middle of this year.
