Verse-O-Matic Plugin
Awhile back I created a plugin to display a random verse on the sidebar of this site. I usually do things like this mainly for the tinkering.
Anyway, I’ve packaged this up for download if anyone needs a random verse display on their site. It is fairly straighforward and simple.
Download the .zip file and extract it.
Copy the files (except install.txt) to your wp-content/plugins/ directory.
Figure out where you want the verse to display.
Call it with the function verse_o_matic()
Go to the plugins area of your WP admin
Activate Verse-O-Matic in the menu
That’s it.
You can edit the list of verses from within Wordpress by clicking …
Man & Chimps Living Together?
Recently discovered fossils of chimps are causing some problems for scientists. This is the first fossil evidence that humans and chimps coexisted in the same place in the past. Why is this a problem for evolution? Read on…
It had previously been thought that chimps never lived in the arid Rift Valley—they prefer more lush environments like the Congo and jungles of western Africa. For years scientists believed that early human ancestors left the jungles and moved east to the less wooded grasslands and that this move caused the evolutionary split between the human and chimp lines.
But now, with the discovery …
Absolutely Priceless!
I read this on Neal Boortz’s site and I laughed out loud! It is so priceless that, rather than explain or re-comment, I’m just going to give you Neal’s own words:
Everybody with a television set knows that Al Sharpton was down at Crawford on Sunday praying with Cindy Sheehan and hamming it up for the cameras. The Welfare King was sucking in the media limelight as much as he possibly could. But then we had a little bit of an incident that would lead one to believe Al was in a little bit of a hurry to get out …
How Many Nuclear Weapons Can You Make from 500 Tons of Yellow Cake?
A recent comment on the blog opined that Bush is a muderous liar and therefore we should leave Iraq now, that there were no weapons of mass destruction, and that history would prove him right. Unfortunately, history is being made every day, and it is proving him wrong. Too bad he isn’t paying attention to what is going on in the world around him.
The major rally cry of the anti-war crowd is “Bush Lied, People Died!” Somehow, they have narrowed down the sole reason for war in Iraq was WMDs. And, they contend, there were none. Therefore, Bush lied to …
Death Before Dishonor
T. R. Fehrenbach recently wrote an opinion piece for the San Antonio Express-News. Some of the ideas I felt were thought provoking, especially in light of our recent discussions:
[This] made me wonder about my own mother, when I took the shilling and voluntarily went to a new war. She didn’t like it, nor did my grandparents. Which I understood. But it was my decision; I was of age, and men untie the apron strings. We do it when we marry and when we go to war.
Had I been killed, I would have expected my mother to grieve. She grieved …
