I've been trying to make my blog work for a few days now but with no success. The bug wasn't there when I started out so I guess I'm the one who screwed up.
The start page and the archives ("arkiv") show up as they should. However, when I click on any post or "comments" I still se the start page. The same goes for the about ("om mig") page.
My attempts to solve the problem:
I created a new template and assigned it to "about" ("om mig"). I destroyed the template so much I could but it still refuses to show what I wrote in the box where I create the pages. It's now restored to "default template".
I thought this meant that the fault where in the default template but I've restored all files without success.
Any suggestions on what might be causing the problem and what I should do?

text: Close NHL Albatross Players 0 0 More 0 0 0 View Gallery Next Previous Next David E. Klutho/SI Ilya Kovalchuk The free agent sniper's 15-year, $100 million deal with the Devils was frowned upon by the NHL, which voided the original 17-year, $102 million edition and hit New Jersey with a $3 million fine and the loss of two draft picks. It is a prime example of the kind of long-term, salary-cap-dodging, front-loaded, back-diving contracts (Kovalchuk was to be paid only $550,000 in each of its last five years) that the league has been fighting to prohibit in its next CBA. Clearly, locking up a player for a long time at a steep price can turn him into an albatross (click here) -- virtually untradeable and a constant headache in the cap era. Other notable examples follow. 1|11 Ilya Bryzgalov Seeking to solve their age-old problem of instability in net, the Flyers signed Bryzgalov, 30, to a nine-year, $51 million contract in June 2011 after trading star forwards Mike Richards and Jeff Carter to clear cap space. The eight-year veteran was coming off an impressive four-season stint with Phoenix, where he was a 2009-10 Vezina Trophy finalist. Initially a popular and zany figure, thanks to HBO's 24/7 series ( CLICK HERE to view a segment), Bryzgalov didn't seem to take well to the pressure in Philly. He played erratically, publicly criticized himself, and was upset to find Sergei Bobrovskystarting in the 2012 Winter Classic. After a shaky performance in the 2012 playoffs, Bryzgalov was ordered by GM Paul Holmgren to get his act together. "His job is to stop pucks and help us win games," Holmgren said. "It's not Comedy Central." CLICK HERE to read Michael Farber's "Bryzgalov is No Laughing Matter" 2|11 Darren Carroll/SI Jaromir Jagr After acquiring the five-time scoring champion from the cash-strapped Penguins in July 2001, the Capitals gave Jagr a seven year extension that made him the NHL's highest paid played ($11 million per season). He spent less than three seasons with them, causing unrest as his production declined and attendance fell. The Caps made the playoffs once (a first-round exit). Desperate to unload their albatross, they agreed, after six months of haggling with the only taker -- the deep-pocketed Rangers -- to accept Anson Carter in return and pay $4 million to $4.5 million of Jagr's salary through the 2007-08 season. 3|11 Lou Capozzola/SI Alexei Yashin Imported from Ottawa via trade in June 2001 to be the Islanders' marquee star, the Russian center was given a widely ridiculed 10-year, $87.5 million contract and proceeded to live up to his infuriating reputation. (While with Ottawa, he'd demanded a trade after not getting a new, fat contract and was suspended by the Senators for a year.) By June 2007, the Isles could take no more of his inconsistent production and, in an attempt to free up funds to sign the recently acquired Ryan Smyth, bought out the four remaining years of Yashin's deal for $17.63 -- to be paid out over the next eight years. With no takers in the NHL, Yashin left for Russia's KHL. 4|11 Lou Capozzola/SI Rick DiPietro The Islanders' most recent albatross received a stunning 15-year, $67.5 million deal in September 2006, but has been bedeviled by a seemingly endless string of knee, hip and groin injuries as well as a sports hernia that have limited him to a total of 47 games since 2008. At age 30, his 2011-12 season over prematurely, and with nine years still to run on his contract, the netminder now known as "Rickety DiPietro" vowed to come back and press on. CLICK HERE to view The Painful Saga of Rick DiPietro gallery. 5|11 Brian Babineau/NHLI/Getty Images Vincent Lecavalier The marquee star of Tampa Bay's 2004 Stanley Cup championship team was given an 11-year, $85 million extension in July 2008. When his production began to decline, he became a burden to a losing franchise in financial turmoil. Rumors swirled during the winter of 2010 that he would be dealt, but his no trade clause and $10 million cap hit through 2016 made moving him very problematic. New owner Jeff Vinik, who took over in March 2010, has since restored stability and Lecavalier remains captain of an improved team, but he is overshadowed by young superstar Steven Stamkos and his contract is an albatross. 6|11 Jim McIsaac/Getty Images Scott Gomez A reasonably productive center for two Stanley Cup-winners with the Devils, Gomez' status as one of the bigger names of the FA class of 2007 helped him land a 7-year, $51.5 million deal with the New York Rangers. After failing to click with Jaromir Jagr during his first season on Broadway, he was traded to Montreal, where he went a year between goals, finally scoring one on Feb. 7, 2012. When the season ended, buyout talk was swirling as he was set to make $5.5 million for 2012-13 with another $4.5 million due in 2013-14. 7|11 Lou Capozzola/SI Sean Avery Even relatively short deals can be deadly. Signing the notorious agitator to a four-year, $15.5 million contract in 2008 ultimately cost Stars co-GM Brett Hull his job. Avery was an unmitigated disaster in Dallas, playing in only 23 games and causing problems in the dressing room. He was suspended six games and forced to go into a two-month counseling program after making unseemly public comments about his former girlfriends. After announcing that they would not take him back, the Stars waived Avery in March 2009 and he was claimed by his former employer, the Rangers, but with half his salary to be paid by the Stars. CLICK HERE to view The Adventures of Sean Avery gallery. 8|11 David E. Klutho/SI Cristobal Huet and <br> Brian Campbell A shopping spree that brought in Marian Hossa (12 years, $62.8 million), Brian Campbell (eight years, $56.8 million) and Cristobal Huet (four years, $22.4) ultimately left the Blackhawks with scant breathing room under the cap and cost them 10 valuable support players after winning the Stanley Cup in 2010. Huet became an albatross after he failed to hold the starting job in net. The Blackhawks ended up having to assign him and his cap hit to HC Fribourg-Gotteron in Switzerland before the 2010-11 season. Campbell's campaign was delayed a month by a knee injury, but at age 31 and with a $7 million cap hit, he, too, became problematic. Fortunately, ex-Blackhawks GM Dale Tallon, now with Florida, was willing to trade Rotislav Olesz for him in June 2011. 9|11 David E. Klutho/SI Dany Heatley A dispute with new coach Cory Clouston over ice time and his role led Heatley to demand a trade -- only one season after signing a six-year, $45 million contract with the Senators. "We signed [Heatley] to a long-term deal and we expect him to honor it," said GM Bryan Murray, who found himself wrestling with a player who had a no movement clause and no desire to play in Ottawa. When Heatley nixed a trade to Edmonton in July 2009, the Senators were left on the hook for a $4 million bonus. The soap opera dragged on until mid-September, when the disgruntled sniper was finally traded to San Jose for Jonathan Cheechoo, Milan Michalek and a 2010 second-round pick. 10|11 Lou Capozzola/SI Wade Redden Signed by New York for six-years at $39 million, the 11-year veteran defenseman -- an All-Star with Ottawa -- became a target of boo birds on Broadway, especially when he produced career lows in goals (2), assists (12) and points (14) in 2009-10. At 33, with declining skills and four years and $23 million left on his contract, Redden was waived before the 2010-11 season and assigned to AHL Hartford where his $6.5 million cap hit and career were buried. 11|11 Next up College Football Bell dominated in his first season as Michigan State's feature back, averaging 137.3 rushing yards per game, third best in the FBS. Bell wowed well beyond the box score, hurdling his way into the early Heisman conversation and stiff-arming his way to the most rushing yards in the Big Ten. 35 Bowl Season's 35 Most Exciting Players December 14, 2012 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 More Recommended Galleries NHL Loui Eriksson, LW — 2016 stats: 82 GP, 30 G, 33 A, 63 PTS, +13 28 Top NHL Free Agents of 2016 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 More NHL Conor Sheary, an undrafted 5' 8", 175-pound winger out of New Hampshire put his elite hockey sense, quick feet and world-class shot to good use in Game 2 of the 2016 Stanley Cup Final when he became just the fifth rookie in history to score an overtime winner.

EXPLOSION ABOARD T.W.A. FLIGHT 800: VICTIMS;Lives of Beauty and Business, Sports and Scholarship, Youth and Age
By N. R. KLEINFIELD
Published: July 19, 1996
A peripatetic couple, married for more than 56 years, who chose the city of romance to mark an 80th birthday. A prominent decorator prowling for antiques. A high school teacher who steered Joe Mantegna into acting. An 11-year-old exchange student from France who could not get his fill of pistachio ice cream. And 16 teen-agers from a French club in Montoursville, Pa., bent on what they hoped would be a memorable and merry adventure to the city of their dreams.
Disaster, as is its wont, chose its victims mercilessly and indiscriminately when T.W.A. Flight 800 from Kennedy International Airport to Paris dropped out of the sky Wednesday night and sank into the sepulchral waters off the coast of Long Island. There is nothing but heartache when a plane crashes and the death toll equals with perfect precision the passenger list. That was the stark horror of T.W.A. Flight 800. None of the 230 aboard survived.
The crash played no favorites. It claimed a contingent of passengers bumped from a flight to Rome earlier in the evening, including two pairs of newlyweds who had been honeymooning in the United States, a laid-off factory worker visiting relatives in Brooklyn and Ana Maria Shorter, the wife of Wayne Shorter, the jazz saxophonist and composer. She was traveling with her niece to meet Mr. Shorter in Italy, where he was on tour. Mr. Shorter immediately canceled the tour and flew back to the United States.
It claimed Michel Breistroff, 25, a member of the French national hockey team who was expected to compete in the 1998 Winter Olympics. It claimed Dan and Stephanie Gaetke of Kansas City, Mo., and two cousins, on a joint pleasure trip to France.
It took the young and the aged, the business traveler and the vacationer -- people who just happened to be buckled into seats in the same doomed 747 jetliner.
Some of their stories were pieced together from interviews with relatives and friends, and from news agencies.
Needlepoint in the Air
Edwin B. Brooks Sr., 82, and Ruth D. Brooks, 79, had been married for more than 56 years. They appreciated having lived long enough to see a great-grandchild born five years ago. They had selected Paris as the fitting venue to celebrate Mrs. Brooks's 80th birthday, on Aug. 11.
They were the most seasoned of world travelers who, with their working days behind them, spent a minimum of four months a year gambolling around the globe: Bangkok, Hong Kong, China, Bahrain. They had visited every continent but Antarctica, and in almost every imaginable way. Once, they went to Australia aboard a commercial steamer with just five other passengers.
"It was better than having a house in Florida," said Edwin H. Brooks Jr., the Brooks's son. "They were both in great health. They were like two kids."
Before Mr. Brooks retired about 25 years ago as president of the Columbian Carbon Company, the couple lived in Manhattan and Old Greenwich, Conn. Then they moved to a home on Martha's Vineyard.
As was their custom, their children said, they had a piece of needlepoint with them on the plane, a bench cover for the wife of Mr. Brooks Jr.
Mrs. Brooks was a longtime devotee of needlepoint, and her husband had taken up the avocation so that they could pursue projects together during their far-flung journeys. Every time a grandchild graduated from high school or college, he or she knew exactly what to expect as a gift from the grandparents: a work of needlepoint, some parts of it doubtlessly stitched aboard an airplane.
A Homesick French Boy
On the other end of the spectrum, Ludovic Chanson was only 11. The boy, from the small town of Garancieres on the outskirts of Paris near Versailles, had just finished his second summer as an exchange student living with the Capozza family in Mendham, N.J.
He was in America for three weeks, during which time he busily acquired a bundle of Chicago Bulls and New York Knicks memorabilia. "He sat on his bag -- it was like out of a comedy -- to get it closed," said Frank Capozza, who along with his wife, Nancy, and their two sons, Luke, 13, and Alex, 9, had been the boy's hosts.
Ludovic spent much of his stay playing basketball and swimming, not to mention indulging a fondness for pistachio ice cream with sprinkles. On his last day, before being driven to the airport, he was treated to lunch at Planet Hollywood. He wore a Chicago Bulls shirt and Dennis Rodman sneakers.
The night before, he had called his mother in France. "He hung up the phone and cried," Mr. Capozza said, "because he missed his mother so much."
Executives in Mid-Merger
For them, Paris held the allure of money to do business. They were insurance company executives. C. Kirk Rhein Jr. was the chief executive of Danielson Holding Company, an insurance company in Manhattan, and he was on Flight 800 with William R. Story, who heads Danielson's main subsidiary, and Charles H. Gray, president of the Midland Financial Group, a Memphis company that was being acquired by Danielson. The merger was to be completed in September, and they were on their way to France to arrange financing.

LET'S TALK about governing and leadership.
And no smart-aleck remarks like, "Well, if you mean in Philly or Harrisburg, there isn't much to talk about."
Don't be a cynic. That's my job.
Why, just last week, Philly folks managed to get Harrisburg to allow increasing the local cigarette tax $2 per pack to raise money for city schools.
OK, it's not settled. Some legislative hoops remain. Gov. Corbett, who seems to have writer's cramp, needs to sign it. And it doesn't come close to closing the district's deficit.
But, hey, it's a victory, right? Another disaster averted. And what better way to fund schools than with a cigarette tax?

Jane Harman Plans To Resign On Tuesday, Won't Endorse A Successor
Rep. Jane Harman will not endorse a successor, saying today that her new role as head of a foreign policy think tank compels her to be non-partisan.
At her first press conference since announcing her retirement, the South Bay congresswoman said she intends to make her resignation official next Tuesday. That would allow the special election to be consolidated with Gov. Jerry Brown's proposed statewide vote in June to extend tax increases.
L.A. Councilwoman Janice Hahn is the only major candidate who has declared so far.
She has already secured the endorsements of Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and several labor groups.

Secretary of State Debra Bowen is still weighing whether to jump in.
At the press conference, Harman said she had been approached after the November election about taking the helm of the Woodrow Wilson International Center, a centrist think tank previously run by Rep. Lee Hamilton. She acknowledged that "the timing isn't great," but said "It wasn't my timing; it was their timing."
Harman said she was looking forward to a new challenge after spending eight terms in Congress. In the hour-long meeting, she talked about a range of foreign policy topics, including the protests in Egypt and the challenges of Afghanistan, all the while dropping the names of major figures -- such as John Kerry and Hillary Clinton -- who had called her since her retirement was announced.
At her new job, she said she would be try to focus on developing a "legal and policy framework in the post-9/11 world," both in the domestic sphere and internationally.
For example, she said, "The Geneva Conventions may need to be updated."
That's the kind of statement that would have driven her liberal critics wild, but Harman doesn't have to worry about that any more. The think tank job, she said, would create "a safe political space where an in-depth discussion can take place."
"It's a big candy store," she said.

Bob Skinner is an architectural photographer by trade who photographs multimillion-dollar properties around New York. He doesn't often photograph people for his commercial work, but by his own admission, he is something of a "people person."
"I've learned that I can stand in the middle of a field with a camera and people will approach me. I'm very approachable. People say, 'You are a magnet,' and they just come up and start speaking with me."
Which is how his personal series "Searching For America" evolved from photographing abandoned hotels in the Catskills region to photographing the people who live there.
Sullivan County, N.Y., and the surrounding counties in the Catskills Mountains, used to be a mecca for tourism — the area was filled with grand resorts that saw their heyday in the 1940s-'60s. The area was colloquially known as the Borscht Belt because of the large number of Jewish vacationers who frequented the area. (The hotel in Dirty Dancing was modeled after a real-life Catskills resort called Grossingers.)
But with the rise of cheap air travel, vacationers headed elsewhere, and the resorts began to crumble. Now, many stand deserted and derelict — playgrounds for graffiti artists, copper wire scavengers and photographers like Skinner who are fascinated by forgotten spaces.
Skinner first fell in love with derelict buildings while studying photography in Maine. He came across "two furnished time capsules" — homes where the families just seemed to have walked out, leaving the houses untouched. That fascination, along with an interest in fine art and history, drew Skinner to Sullivan County, where he began wandering through the old hotels.
But ultimately, he said it's the people he met along the way who inspired him most.
"I realized that the people I was asking about where to find the resorts were the most interesting part of the landscape."
He says working in the Catskills region has been a wonderful contrast to photographing the homes of the "1 percent of the 1 percent."
"Getting out to something completely different is just a breath of fresh air. You find that people are all the same, no matter where they are."
You can see more of Skinner's work from "Searching For America" on his website.

I find all the reports amusing that say Hernandez has always had a problem choosing the wrong kind of friends. IOW, his problems are all caused by being an innocent little child who doesn't know how to pick good friends.
How about bad people hang out with Hernandez because they are all the same people?

I've installed the SB @reply comment plugin but when I look on my blog, there seems to be a doubling up of the "reply" button. When I deactivate the plugin there is none, so it isn't coming from another plugin (I am fairly new to WP). Here is a link to a page with an example of what I mean. http://www.kaetrinsmusings.com/2013/08/housekeeping.html#comments
I tried logging out of WP to see what it looked like if I was a guest and it seems to be appearing the same way, with the first "reply" slightly below the second.
Is there another setting which is causing this which I can tweak?
thx for your help.

Quick GuideWhooping Cough (pertussis) Symptoms, Causes, Vaccine, and Treatment
What is the treatment for whooping cough?
Antibiotics directed against Bordetella pertussis can be effective in reducing the severity of whooping cough when administered early in the course of the disease. Antibiotic therapy can also help reduce the risk of transmission of the bacterium to other household members as well as to others who may come into contact with an infected person. Unfortunately, most people with whooping cough are diagnosed later with the condition in the second (paroxysmal) stage of the disease.
Treatment with antibiotics is recommended for anyone who has had the disease for less than three to four weeks. Azithromycin (Zithromax), clarithromycin (Biaxin), erythromycin (E-Mycin, Eryc, Ery-Tab, PCE, Pediazole, Ilosone), and sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim, Septra) are antibiotics that have been shown to be effective in treating whooping cough. It is unclear whether antibiotics have any benefit for people who have been ill with whooping cough for longer than three to four weeks, although antibiotic therapy still is often considered for this group often. There is no proven effective treatment for the paroxysms of coughing that accompany whooping cough.
Antibiotics also are routinely administered to people who have had close contact with an infected person, regardless of their vaccination status.
Do not give an infected child cough syrup or cough medicines unless instructed to do so by a doctor. They have not been shown to be of benefit, and they may cause sedation that leads to worsened outcomes.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Sep 01st, 2006
Running Time: 61
Director: J Anton
Company: Anton Productions
Cast: Anastasia Pierce, Darby, Smokie Flame, Nina Neon, Steve Steele, Charlie Laine
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Specialty
From director J. Anton's Anton Productions, Chloroformed 2 is a fantasy-filled exercise in kidnapping, bondage and molestation. Starring five girls across four scenes, each chapter starts with the seeming visitation of the infamous WWII-type "Ether Bunny."
Beautiful Anastasia Pierce is first in abduction, napping when her tattooed assailant presses a drug-laden rag to her face (for dramatic effect, the chloroform takes longer than usual to kick in). Afterwards, Anastasia gets poked and prodded on her satin sheets, waking only for more fumes and tight-binding rope.
Nina Neon begs for her job in scene two, so boss Steve Steele gets her to help fulfill his sexual fantasies. He strips her and fondles her privates before Anastasia and Darby fight it out in the living room. Charlie Laine gets Smokie Flame to huff the stuff and spread her muff, going limp in a most life-like manner.
The feature, though short, has 15 minutes of outtakes and ample bonuses for excited fans.
Retailing: Knock ?em out with Chloroformed 2.

Dave Ramsey: How to ask for a raise
Dear Dave: What's your advice on asking for a raise at work when you have more responsibility than a co-worker but the same title on paper? After being with my company four years, I feel like I should make more money and I have the right to complain about this. -- Vanessa
Dear Vanessa: Sorry, no. You don't have a right to complain. You agreed on your pay, and you are doing your job the way your character and integrity tell you to do the job. If someone else is a slacker in the same position, that doesn't mean a whole lot in terms of your personal compensation.
I have several people at my company who hold similar positions and make similar money. Some of them have been here for years, while others are relatively new. I don't pay people for how long they've been in the building, and I don't want anyone on my team who doesn't give 100 percent. Now, that may be a different issue than pay, but at the same time I don't want someone who gives 50 percent and I pay them 50 percent. I want everyone at 100 percent, but that kind of thing isn't your problem. It's the company's problem, because she works for them and not you.
If you honestly feel like you deserve a raise because of your effort and performance, that's fine. Sit down with your leader and make a logical and reasonable argument for why you deserve more money. But don't bring up your co-worker and what he or she makes in the discussion. That's just not relevant. What is relevant is your worth and the value you bring to the organization.
But a comparative analysis with someone else on staff just isn't a good idea. I'd stay away from that, Vanessa.
Dear Dave: My wife and I live in New York, and we've had whole life insurance for several years. There's a 7 percent penalty if we cash out the policies now. If we wait a few years, we won't have to pay into the premiums anymore. Should we cash out the policies anyway? -- Brian
Dear Brian: The reason you won't have to pay into the premiums anymore is because you built up enough savings, and they are not paying you enough on the savings to amount to anything. The amount they should have been paying you versus the way they were ripping you off will buy the life insurance.
It's not like you can pay for it because you still have probability of death. As long as there's a probability of death there's a cost to life insurance. The only question is whether you're paying out of your savings account or your checking account. In this case, you're paying out of savings.
The 7 percent figure is just your surrender charge, so I'd get out of that policy soon. Here's the problem, Brian. If you die today, do you know what they'll pay? Face value. They won't pay face value plus the savings you paid for. In other words, you'll lose your savings.
I'd get term life insurance in place by the end of the week. Compare prices on term, because you'll be surprised at the difference some companies charge for term insurance. Make sure you get good 15- to 20-year level terms policies valued at 10 to 12 times your annual incomes.

Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light Getting Two New Duos
Written Thursday, December 02, 2010 By Richard WalkerView author's profile
Are you sick of the sight of Lara and Totec in Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light? No? Well, Crystal Dynamics is still looking to bring two new duos to the XBLA title as DLC in the near future, putting the feelers out to the Twitter community to find out which pair fans would like to see first.
"Which downloadable character pack for LCGOL should come first, Kane & Lynch or Raziel & Kain? YOU DECIDE & tweet @CrystalDynamics", the developer tweets.
Hands up if you ever envisaged Kane & Lynch running around inside a trap-laden tomb. No, us neither. Still, it'll be nice to see Raziel and Kain again from the Legacy of Kain series for the first time since 2003, won't it?
Why don't you jump onto Twitter now and cast your vote for which of the two pairs you'd like to see come to Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light first.
