Ditching the use of the loopback

Pushing files so they are available when the new article gets posted.

If the Pi's loopback is set in the hosts file, clients using it as a
DNS server will try to connect to their own loopback, which does not
have a Web server.  So the real IP of the Pi is used.  It is
recommended to use a static IP since this will be acting as a server.

Made one small change from some hard coded values to a variable.
