I ran across an issue today where I needed to specify which image sizes were generated within WordPress. I didn’t need the stock sizes (thumbnail, medium, large) but I did need a few custom sizes. Adding custom sizes is the easy part but removing others threw me for a loop. The quick and dirty solution…
Early snow at Laurel Summit and Phillipsburg
With all the global warming and climate change debate going on, I find this paragraph from the NWS State College office this morning somewhat of interest.

All Enemies, Foreign and Domestic
There was a comment posted on a Politico article regarding Ron Paul suggesting impeachment of President Obama following the assassination of Anwar al-Awlaki. I’d like to address a few things.
