Really cool to read through and find so much awesomeness added to WordPress 3.6 while I was gone. I should take three weeks off more often.

This is a paragraph. It is left aligned. Because of this, it is a bit more liberal in it’s views. It’s favorite color is green. Left align tends to be more eco-friendly, but it provides no concrete evidence that it really is. Even though it likes share the wealth evenly, it leaves the equal distribution up to justified alignment.
This is a paragraph. It is center aligned. Center is, but nature, a fence sitter. A flip flopper. It has a difficult time making up its mind. It wants to pick a side. Really, it does. It has the best intentions, but it tends to complicate matters more than help. The best you can do is try to win it over and hope for the best. I hear center align does take bribes.
This is a paragraph. It is right aligned. It is a bit more conservative in it’s views. It’s prefers to not be told what to do or how to do it. Right align totally owns a slew of guns and loves to head to the range for some practice. Which is cool and all. I mean, it’s a pretty good shot from at least four or five football fields away. Dead on. So boss.
This is a paragraph. It is justify aligned. It gets really mad when people associate it with Justin Timberlake. Typically, justified is pretty straight laced. It likes everything to be in it’s place and not all cattywampus like the rest of the aligns. I am not saying that makes it better than the rest of the aligns, but it does tend to put off more of an elitist attitude.
Single line blockquote:
Stay hungry. Stay foolish.
Multi line blockquote with a cite reference:
People think focus means saying yes to the thing you’ve got to focus on. But that’s not what it means at all. It means saying no to the hundred other good ideas that there are. You have to pick carefully. I’m actually as proud of the things we haven’t done as the things I have done. Innovation is saying no to 1,000 things.

Welcome to image alignment! The best way to demonstrate the ebb and flow of the various image positioning options is to nestle them snuggly among an ocean of words. Grab a paddle and let’s get started.
The image above happens to be centered.
The rest of this paragraph is filler for the sake of seeing the text wrap around the 150×150 image, which is left aligned.
As you can see the should be some space above, below, and to the right of the image. The text should not be creeping on the image. Creeping is just not right. Images need breathing room too. Let them speak like you words. Let them do their jobs without any hassle from the text. In about one more sentence here, we’ll see that the text moves from the right of the image down below the image in seamless transition. Again, letting the do it’s thang. Mission accomplished!
And now for a massively large image. It also has no alignment.
The image above, though 1200px wide, should not overflow the content area. It should remain contained with no visible disruption to the flow of content.
And now we’re going to shift things to the right align. Again, there should be plenty of room above, below, and to the left of the image. Just look at him there… Hey guy! Way to rock that right side. I don’t care what the left aligned image says, you look great. Don’t let anyone else tell you differently.
In just a bit here, you should see the text start to wrap below the right aligned image and settle in nicely. There should still be plenty of room and everything should be sitting pretty. Yeah… Just like that. It never felt so good to be right.
And just when you thought we were done, we’re going to do them all over again with captions!
The image above happens to be centered. The caption also has a link in it, just to see if it does anything funky.
The rest of this paragraph is filler for the sake of seeing the text wrap around the 150×150 image, which is left aligned.

And that’s a wrap, yo! You survived the tumultuous waters of alignment. Image alignment achievement unlocked!

The Swami had the good fortune of coming into contact at Bangalore with the Late Revered Swami Yatiswarananda, the then Vice-President of the Ramakrishna Order in 1951 and was initiated by him in 1955. Swami Yatiswarananda directed him to join the Ramakrishna Mission at Delhi. Thus he got his early training (1956-60) under the Late Revered Swami Ranganathananda, the 13th President of the Ramakrishna Order. He was ordained into Sannyas in 1966 by the Late Revered Swami Vireswarananda the 10th president of the Ramakrishna Order. He has worked among the tribals in Meghalaya, in Arunachal Pradesh and in Madhya Pradesh (Bastar Dist.) for about 20 years and has tried to bring the tribals into the main stream of National life through value based yet modern education. He has also worked in the Mission’s Bombay, Calcutta, Raipur and Narainpur centres. He had been the General and Executive Member of the Central Board of Secondary Education and of the National Council for Educational Research and Training, New Delhi, the two national bodies of Government of India. He is a Trustee of the Ramakrishna Math & Mission since 1990 and from 1991 he was in-charge of the Saradapitha, Belur Math, which is a vast complex of several Educational Colleges and Technical Institutions. He took charge as President (Adhyaksha) of Sri Ramakrishna Math, Chennai, in April 1995.
The Swami has contributed his humble efforts for the establishment of a permanent Exhibition of Swami Vivekananda’s life and message and Indian culture at the very house (Ice House) at Chennai where Swami Vivekananda stayed in 1897. He has also dedicated his efforts in the establishment of a magnificent temple, the 2nd biggest of its kind anywhere, of Sri Ramakrishna, at Chennai, which has become a landmark in that Metropolis.
The Swami is known for his sociable, humorous, soft but firm nature. He is a linguist with proficiency in English, Sanskrit, Hindi, Kannada, Tamil and Bengali. He speaks and writes on Ramakrishna-Vivekananda Philosophy and Indian culture. He is also a singer, mostly of Bhajans both in Hindustani and Carnatic styles.
The Swami has travelled widely, outside India also, to preach Vedanta; visiting U.S.A., Europe, Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Mauritius, Zimbabwe, Zambia and South Africa.

Swami Vivekananda represents the best in all. He speaks for universal truth or the unification of all truth
*********************************************
On October5th 1893 Free Press (USA)
Our Visitor from India
Is he a Buddhist? Is he a Mohammedan? What is his mission? Such are the questions that are heard on all sides about Mr. Vivekananda who speaks here Saturday evening. Following is something from a Chicago source that bears on this question:
Vivekananda is a representative from India to the World’s Parliament of Religions. He, more than any other of the eminent scholars, has attracted universal attention, first, by his unique attire in Mandarin color; second, by his magnetic presence; and last, but not least, by his brilliant oratory and wonderful exposition of Hindu philosophy.
Vivekananda is not a Brahmin, is not a Buddhist, is not a Parsee, is not a Mohammedan. He may be said to represent the best in all of these. He speaks for universal truth or the unification of all truth. At all times his appearance at the Memorial Art Palace has been attended by the greatest enthusiasm. Indeed, his stay in Chicago has been a continual ovation. He is a scholar among scholars, yet simple in his life and earnest in conquering all limitations of the flesh, all propensities born of the sense world.
The “Chicago source” hit the nail right on the head when it said, among other things, that Swamiji represented the best in all these religions. This only goes to show how deep an impression Swamiji carved into his Chicago audience.
