While trying to set up scripefire and joomla I found this out.

-
I was successfull at linking blogger.com and wordpress.com and wordpress.org, but had problems with joomla.
I found this page below. which had some simple and helpful instructions, I also need the page that they linked to before that showed what to do on the joomla side, as I was overlooking that. So listed in order here are the two that I found most helpful.

# Open the Scribefire firefox addon in firefox. It should be a golden icon in your status bar at the bottom.
# On the right hand side tabs, select blogs
# At the bottom, choose the add button.
# Follow the wizard, add the location of your Joomla installation, next
# Select "Custom Blog", next
# Select "MetaWeblog API", fill within the API URL, "http://yourDomainName/xmlrpc/index.php", next
# Add your Joomla Username and Password
Posting to Joomla with ScribeFire | How do I?


1. In your Joomla site admin go to GlobalConfiguration | System. In the System Settings box set 'Enable Web Services' to 'Yes'.
2. Download and install Justo's MetaWeb Joomla plugin
3. Download and install the RSD Joomla plugin
4. Go to the PlugIn manager and enable both plugins, at the same time check that the Blogger PlugIn is disabled - Justo says this is being fixed in Joomla but better safe than sorry.
5. Install the ScribeFire extension in FireFox and re-start FireFox to enable it.
6. Click the little yellow ScribeFire icon at the bottom left of the window and click past the advertising until you get to a page that will allow you to add a new blog.
7. Enter the url of your site home page - http://greyhead.net here.
8. Enter a valid username and password and hopefully autoconfiguration will plug you in.
9. If autoconfig doesn't work then you can set the Type of blog to MetaWeblog; and the XML-RPC url to http://example.com/xmlrpc/index.php

That's it, happy posting

Hello, I have arrived in honduras just fine, it is beautiful down here. nice and warm. it is about 80-85 degrees I would say. Today was our flight, we had a connection in Houston. arrived in Roatan 1:15PM. it took until nearly 2:30 to get our bags and get to the Inn of last resort. I took a swim, since this is our only off day. Sunday we will vist some people. and Monday off to the CSI site. We are on the North west side of the island, there is only one road that leads to the west from the Airport (first it goes north), very near the end of the road on the west side you will find two small bays near each other (Gibson's Bight), that should be where the INN is located.

Again they picked up rocks

Once again Jesus is confronted with being stoned. (John 10:31-32) This time He does not hide from them, but faces them and asks them questions as to why they want to stone Him. These questions cause them to doubt their reasons. The one that rings for me is: Just because I (Jesus) said, 'I am the Son of God'? If I don't do the things my Father does, well and good; don't believe me. But if I am doing them, put aside for a moment what you hear me say about myself and just take the evidence of the actions that are right before your eyes. Take time today to read of the things that Jesus did and see for yourself, are they one and the same as God. Today I pray that move closer to your maker.

The one who has never sinned throw the first stone!

Most Christians have heard this story before. This is the one that gets me all the time. I have a judgmental person, I am always saying (mostly in my head) why do they do this or that? Don't they realize what that is saying about them? I will try and put people in boxes, usually below me. Or at least that is what I believe at the time. I know some people that are much better at this (NOT being judgmental) then I am. I am trying to avoid those conversations at work, the rumors, the gossip, the competition that I play in my head. I always find it interesting that the story states that the older people left first...and as I get older I find that it is easier to be less judgmental. I calculate that I may only need to live to be about 200 to completely remove this from my system. I have also noticed today that people can see me, I mean I am generally invisible in many situations, but today I walked a route that I have many times prior, and in those times people rarely acknowledge me. To...
