 * Use `get_categories()` to build an array of Category objects, then `foreach` 
   Category, build a `WP_Query` that outputs the 5 most recent posts.
 *     ```
       $categories = get_categories();
       foreach ( $categories as $category ) {
         $args = array(
           'cat' => $category->term_id,
           'posts_per_page' => 5
         );
         $query = new WP_Query( $query );
         if ( $query->have_posts() ) {
           while ( $query->have_posts() ) {
             $query->the_post();
             /* do stuff here */
           }
         }
       }
       ```

 * So, now i have this loop code: [Loop code](http://pastebin.com/AHMJQyb3)
 * But it loops the same post. I need to exclude those 5 posts, because first two
   posts and other three posts are different styling. How to do that?
