test blog
With little bit of modifications to your Blogger Beta template you can easily implement expandable post summaries in your blog main page. Expandable posts gives very professional and elegant look to your blog. You can hide most of the detailed content from main page and display them when the page of the post is opened.
If you observer my blog, voting widgets are displayed on my post links and not in my main page. Also, most of the images in my posts are shown only in the actual post links only. Moving bandwidth intensive content to posts' pages loads your main page very fast.
Let us see the steps to be followed for modifying the template to implement this
Log in to your blogger account select Layout of the blog which you want to modify
Navigate through Template --> Edit HTML
Take backup of your template by clicking Download Full Template. This backup will help you if you want to revert to old template
Search for ]]> in your template HTML and paste the following piece of code in between ]]> and
After pasting the code, your template should look like as shown in the following image

Most of our states are making budget cuts — of those programs most needed by our worst off citizens — education, Medicaid, low cost housing, jobs for the lesser educated. When we hear of job losses, let us not forget who is losing most of them — not the more media focused middle and upper classes. Our younger college grads will eventually get there, but not older people who are losing their savings as well as employment and employment opportunities who are in dire circumstances.The U.S. has become a nation drastically divided between poverty and wealth. The unemployment figures in NYC for African American men are our most drastic — and race discrimination looks to have become a hiring factor as well.
I have watched the changes in recent decades in my neighborhood — Morningside Heights with Columbia and other academic institutions. We used to have single occupancy residential buildings — they have all been converted to co-ops or high priced rental buildings. Our restaurants are now all expensive. We have lost the low cost businesses — to increased lease prices (many by Columbia).
We used to have people sleeping in the rail line running at lower Riverside Park. I have not seen them of late. We do have a guy who regularly begs at the corner of Broadway and 116th St. But we no longer see poor people on our streets. Harlem to the north of us is being gentrified and one of the few remaining lower income housing areas just to the south of us is also being converted to high cost stuff.
Where all this will end, I do not know. We seem to be owned and operated by our billionaires — among which is our newly reelected mayor who is all for high cost development, budget cuts, and diminished enforcement of civil rights.
