Put the following code into the functions.php file of your theme, and just remove the items in the array that you want to keep.

function remove_menus () {


		global $menu;

		// REMOVE ALL

		$restricted = array(__('Dashboard'), __('Posts'), __('Media'), __('Links'), __('Pages'), __('Appearance'), __('Tools'), __('Users'), __('Settings'), __('Comments'), __('Plugins'), __('Profile')); 
		end ($menu);

		while (prev($menu)){

			$value = explode(' ',$menu[key($menu)][0]);

			if(in_array($value[0] != NULL?$value[0]:"" , $restricted)){unset($menu[key($menu)]);}

		}

} add_action('admin_menu', 'remove_menus');

Upgrading a Volume’s Capacity on Amazon EC2

I was capping out an EC2 instance today and needed to upgrade the volumes capacity. This is pretty easy but you are not able to do it on-the-fly.

Right click on the Volume
Click “Create Snapshot
Wait for the snapshot to complete in the snapshots tab
Right click on the snapshot
Click “Create Volume from snapshot”
Make sure to select the same availability zone as your current volume.
Click Yes, Create
Go to your Volumes
Right click and Detach the current Volume
Attach the new volume
You’re done!
