Changes to RSS Feed, Home Page post list, and template

Added a favicon example, changed the RSS Feed to only included the most recent 30 posts, changed the home page to show full content of X number of posts and summary titles of Y number of posts, followed by the link to the archive. Template now includes RSS link in header, and RSS button at top of post list. Main logo is now a link back to home page.
