If you’re a WordPress user, you know that the software comes with two themes, called “classic” and “default.” They’re both horribly ugly.
So one day I was talking to WordPress creator Matt Mullenweg and he suggested I should make a replacement for the classic theme that isn’t quite so ugly.
Here it is.
If you want to see a live blog running the theme, visit Make Stupidity History.
And if you want a clean, simple, floating width, two column theme that’s easy to customize, Classic II is your theme. Classic II has now been updated to work with WordPress Widgets, an upcoming feature of WordPress which allows you to manage your sidebar by dragging and dropping icons around.
You install it just like any other theme: Upload the classic-ii folder from the download into your wp-content/themes folder on your web host. Then go to Presentation and activate the theme.
You can also upload a header image to the theme directory and it will replace the header text, like as shown in the screenshot above. Just call it header.png and upload it to the wp-content/themes/classic-ii folder.
Karl Marx would love the popular moves among politicians in various state governments and the federal government to ban so-called "junk" food in schools, and to "put healthy food in" convenience stores and on the tables of those they define as poor. It's a very elitist and arrogant mindset that promotes this ideology, and it needs to be addressed.
Ultimately, the war supporters in Congress prevailed in the vote on the resolution. Still, the vote was significant because it places every member of Congress on the record as supporting or not supporting the unconstitutional, costly, violent occupation of a country that never attacked us. This vote should serve as an important reminder to the American people of where their representatives really stand when it comes to policing the world, empire building, and war.
