How To Use WordPress Custom Post Type Query to Sort by Date | DesignHammer Website Design and Development in North Carolina

by mozkart (via)
One thing we were trying to achieve was an Events listing solution that was fundamentally simple. Date, times, location and a description. Many of the events plugins out there seem to store their data in a database table specifically created for the plugin, something that won't play nice with MultiSite. The ideal solution would be a list of events that stores its data in each network site's unique database table structure. Therefore, we chose to set this up as a custom post type with a date picker attached to a custom meta box. We would store the date in a custom field. Simple enough. One thing that had us racking our brains for a while was how to sort the dates in a useful way.

by karlcow

When Mohammed Bouazizi, fed up with humiliation, repression and poverty, set himself on fire in Tunisia last January, essentially taking state abuse to its logical end, he ignited the revolutionary imagination of the Middle East and north Africa. Aliaa Mahdy, fed up with hypocrisy and sexual repression, undressed. She is the Molotov cocktail thrown at the Mubaraks in our heads – the dictators of our mind – which insists that revolutions cannot succeed without a tidal wave of cultural changes that upend misogyny and sexual hypocrisy.

Due to the range of flux that serves as the exhibition's platform, serendipitous convergences emerge. Can Young's techno-nature fauna coexist with Woebken and Okada's human-scaled devices that would allow us to sense the world in the specific ways animals do? Does the scenario that Surface Tension inhabits overlap with that of The Active Layer & Next North?

JF: To what can you attribute the growth with Opera? You’ve indicated that some of this is from emerging markets. Can you elaborate?

by Barret Hooper Saturday Post - January 2002 Examples of Vladimir Vasiliev's instructional videos. (2 photos shown) Glenn Lowson, National Post Glenn Lowson, National Post Courtesy of Vladimir Vasiliev Vasiliev (third from right) with his Spetsnaz unit in Russia, 1978;... ... Russian military insignia hanging in the foyer of Vasiliev's school. Vasiliev's students from North America at the annual training trip in Russia. From the video "Improvised Weapons" (5 photos shown) Glenn Lowson, National Post Vladimir Vasiliev instructs a group of students in Russian Martial Art at his school in Thornhill, Ont. (3 photos shown) The word I'm fixating on is exsanguinate. Exsanguinate. Between exquisite and exsert in the dictionary, meaning to drain of blood. It usually results in death. You'd expect to find it in an autopsy report or a vampire novel, though I heard it on The X-Files.
