Slightly calmer gmail

*****
This style is based off of Nicer New Gmail but it's really more of a slash and burn approach.
NO COLORS except tiny bit of red and yellow and some blue I can't get rid of.
I know just enough CSS to be dangerous and not enough to really make things work correctly. Some things it
chokes on:
- tabs! I don't use them so who cares what they look like
- hangout/chat tab - I disabled this as soon as they added it, maybe it's blue, I don't know

Dear Senator Leahy,
Please strongly oppose S.1010 in your role on the Rules and Administration Committee.
This legislation would remove the hiring authority of the Register of Copyrights from the Librarian of Congress
and make it an appointment of the president, which would then require Senate confirmation. This is not needed.
This would politicize this office which is the opposite of what we need right not. ALA, the Association of
College and Research Libraries, and the Association of Research Libraries call the bill “mystifying” given that,
if passed, Congress would voluntarily give up its power to appoint its own copyright advisor and assign it to
the president. The bill also grants the president power to fire the appointee at any time which is, in the

wordpress to SSL for librarian.net
My domain librarian.net needs to switch to HTTPS. I am having trouble getting it to work properly. I know just enough to tinker, but not enough to fix this.
1. My cert is good according to ibiblio for both the www and the non-www URLs
2. I should be able to just change the URL on this page to HTTPS and be good
http://librarian.net/wp-admin/options-general.php
3. BUT, these options are greyed out in WordPress b/c I hardcoded the HTTP URL into my wp-config.php file. If I remove these lines (they are optional) I get an error stating "The page isn’t redirecting properly. An error occurred during a connection to www.librarian.net. This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies."
4. If I hardcode these URLs in wp-config.php to be an HTTPS URL, I receive the same error.
5. In both cases, if I am forcing HTTPS within the interface, my site loads without stylesheets and other things (because they are being served with HTTP URLs and can no longer be found) and I can't load the admin
