This adds the following:

1. Removes expired jobs from jobs.yml an related-jobs.yml

2. Creates an "event box" and "opportunity box" html type to make events and opportunities more visually appealing.

3. Automates the updating of the community and travel funds deadline to always show the next upcoming deadline (end of quarter)

4. Puts the community call in a playable youtube iframe
