   How do I list recent posts but make an exception for the very latest post?

   Does anyone know of a widget/plug-in that does this. Or a code snippet that would call such a list?

   <?php
   $args=array(
     'offset'=> 1,
     'post_type' => 'post',
     'post_status' => 'publish',
     'posts_per_page' => 5,
     'caller_get_posts'=> 1
   );
   $my_query = null;
   $my_query = new WP_Query($args);
   if( $my_query->have_posts() ) {
     echo '5 latest posts offset by one';
     while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); ?>
       <p><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></p>
       <?php
     endwhile;
   }
   wp_reset_query();  // Restore global post data stomped by the_post().
   ?>

   Thanks Michael - "offset" was the term I needed to search for. I found this, too:
