 * I do not want to display the article of the catid 3 in Home, so i use the code
   as below in the index.php of my theme:
    <?php if (have_posts()) : query_posts(
   $query_string .’&cat=-3′); ?>
 * BUT, now, i add a new page named “my blog”, and choose the template of “blog”,
   in the blog template, i copy the code all of the index.php, and when i visit 
   the “my blog”, the article of the catid 3 will display, CAN NOT Hide.
 * Please help me! Thanks!
