 * Thanks for responding. My first problem was I was not displaying admin window.
 * I added .home .type-post.sticky {
    background: #999; }
 * to the very bottom of custom CSS and seeing no change.
    I tried something like
   this also .home .type-post.sticky {container: #354A78; background: #fff; } I 
   will learn more about this and I was sure I have done this before by cloning 
   post and publishing again. I do not always want this particular post sticky. 
   Just for week or so.
