I recommend Etop of that, you can have it go through all older images and optimize those too. With WordPress, doing that is quite easy. Now, people usually get scared when I mention image compression because they start thinking their images will look like the ones from 90’s websites, all blocky with strange coloring, but you can use a compression technique called lossless compression which compresses the images without degrading the quality. Having a lot of large, high-quality images can cause some websites to take 15 seconds or more to load.īut, because websites are viewed on computer monitors with limited resolutions, and because many images contain data that isn’t needed, we can compress these images and make the file size smaller. A smaller file size means a faster load time. On most websites, images are what slow the load time down. Some examples include WP Engine, WP Radius, Flywheel, and Pantheon. Instead, you’ll want a hosting account set up to maximize performance. For WordPress, that means a managed WordPress hosting account. You just need a hosting account with a hosting company that knows what they are doing. $3 a month hosting may seem enticing, but you get what you pay for. Luckily, you don’t need to know about server design or architecture. If you’re like me, you’re not very familiar with server design and architecture. However, having a server that is setup correctly for your website is one of the most important aspects of website speed. Now, let’s jump in and make your website fast. For that, I recommend Pingdom’s Website Speed Test. What I’ll be discussing here is based on Google PageSpeed Insights, a great tool for showing you what your website is doing correctly and areas you can improve.Īlso, you’ll want to be able to measure your site’s load time before and after. So how do you get your site even faster so you start getting that sub-two-second load time? Probably something like, W3 Total Cache or WP Super Cache, which did help a bit, but it’s still taking over two seconds to load. So, you’ve probably done the one thing everyone recommends - installed a caching plugin. That’s way too long.īack in 2010, Google said that websites should load in two seconds or less, and a 2009 survey found that “47 percent of consumers expect a web page to load in two seconds or less.” On top of that, “40 percent of consumers will wait no more than three seconds for a web page to render before abandoning the site.” See more info about this study in the article “How Fast Should A Website Load in 2016?” A chief complaint I come across from WordPress users is, “My website is so slow!” And they are right. ![]()

The Crown Prince (aka “Yi Yeong”) may be a troublemaker in the Palace, but he has a soft spot for his sister. Unknown to Ra On, the man is none other than Crown Prince Hyomyeong, who’s trying to protect his love-struck, younger sister. To help pay for her debts, Ra On accepts her counselee’s offer to pretend to be him and meet the woman whom he loves. She also gets into trouble with the authorities. She’s on the run from some men to whom she owes a lot of money. Hong Sam-non (aka “Ra On”) is an 18-year old girl who is masquerading as a man and earning a living as a street performer and as a relationship counselor for love-struck men. (I used this same structure in my recaps of “ Jumong,” “ Dong Yi,” “ Six Flying Dragons,” “ The King’s Doctor,” and “ A Jewel in the Palace.”) But because you have already watched the video of the previous episode, they aren’t spoilers anymore.

How I wish she would always be 9 or 10 years old like when she played the young Dong-yi! With her talent, she can be Korea’s next international star (after Lee Young-ae). Now at age 17, she’s playing more mature roles. Kim Yoo-jung has rightfully earned her reputation as Korea’s best child actor. I even watched “May Queen” (a non-sageuk) when I found out she was in it. Then I saw her in “Hwang Jin Yi” (she was probably 3 or 4 years old), “Iljimae” (probably the same age), “Painter of the Wind” (she was around 5 years old), and in “The Moon That Embraces The Sun” (she was probably 13). I first saw Kim Yoo-jung in “Dong Yi” where she was about 9 or 10 years old. The only reason I’m writing about this drama is because I’m a big fan of its female lead Kim Yoo-jung.

Both are generally restricted to military use. Tracer bullets are designed to allow the shooter to see where his or her bullets are striking at night, and armor-piercing bullets can penetrate body armor and light steel armor. Hollow-point bullets have a cavity in the nose of the bullet that allows the lead to spread outward on impact, morphing the aerodynamic bullet into a deadly, high-velocity metallic flower, creating gaping wounds. 22 Long has a longer range, travels at a higher velocity, and is much more lethal because of the shape of the bullet and the use of more gunpowder.īullets also have different shapes or other features to take on different tasks. 223 round, just a tiny bit wider in diameter than. 22 Long round is meant for small game hunting and light target practice. Some are for smaller shooters more sensitive to recoil, others are for long-range shooting, while still others are for close-range self-defense. This is starting to sound complicated, but what you really need to know is that, generally, a single gun can only shoot a single kind of bullet.ĭifferent types of bullet calibers are meant to accomplish different tasks, and there are literally hundreds of bullet calibers. 22 Short round is primarily meant for pistols, while the. 357 Magnum revolver bullet will not fit in a Glock pistol chambered in. That said, a bullet’s diameter does not mean it will fit in every gun of that size, and there are many sub-varieties of ammunition. The Navy Is Pretty Much Working on a Ray Gun.The HK G11: The Rifle of the Future That Never Was.The nine-millimeter round is nine millimeters in diameter. The 5.56-millimeter round used in an AR-15 (also expressed, in inches, as. 500 Action Express rounds are all named for their sizes as a fraction of an inch. 45 ACP round used in many handguns is 0.45 inches in diameter-just under half-an-inch wide. This term is merely a way to identify the type of cartridge that the weapons fires.īullet calibers are identified two ways: by fractions of an inch, or in millimeters. You’ll hear “ caliber” tossed around in any discussion of guns. It’s true that many guns operate quite simply, but as technology progresses, newer models are continually becoming more sophisticated. Some guns have lights, lasers, rifle scopes, bipods, and other accessories to identify a target or aid in marksmanship. Today’s firearms have magazines capable of holding up to 30 or more bullets, or more than one barrel, or can fire more than one bullet per pull of the trigger. This is a broad definition that covers everything from potato guns to fully automatic machine guns, but it provides the basic definition of what a gun is and how it works.Īdmittedly, the rapid evolution of guns makes it hard to look at them and see their basic components-a trigger, firing pin, and tubes. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) defines a firearm as “any weapon (including a starter gun) which will or is designed to or may readily be converted to expel a projectile by the action of an explosive.” In other words: if you have a tube and a projectile, and the projectile is designed to fly out of the tube as the result of an explosion, you have a firearm. In order to better understand firearms, we’ve created this guide to how guns work, where we look at the weapon as a tool and study its history in addition to how different types function. I’ve built several of my own rifles, enjoy shooting and tinkering with other types of guns, and have handled almost every major gun type built in the last 500 years. This leads to increased gun violence and fear. Unfortunately, it seems as more time passes, gun literacy declines. Guns are a part of American life they’re woven into our history from the time matchlock muskets armed the earliest colonies, to the Colt revolvers and Winchester rifles of the Old West, to the Glock handgun of today. ![]() ![]() Head over to Bulbware's website now if you'd like to find out more about the company or check out the game's website here.

Obama didn't just want to relocate it, he wanted it given back to Britain. But none of this changes the fact that one of Obama's first actions as president was to return the Oval Office bust of Churchill. This second bust was supposedly under repair but has now mysteriously surfaced. The AP article takes its cue from a White House blog that initially attempted to deny this and obfuscate the issue by claiming possession of a second bust. This is reflected in resolutions passed by the Organization of American States and backed by the United States.įinally the AP article disputes the film's claim that Obama removed a Winston Churchill bust from the Oval Office. Despite the special relationship between America and Britain, and despite the fact that Republican and Democratic presidents have supported the British position, the Obama administration has switched sides and now supports the Argentine position calling for negotiations. The Argentine position supports negotiations over the control of the islands. The British position on the Falklands is that the islands belong to the U.K. So my argument about Obama is quite consistent with his actions against Bin Laden and Al Qaeda.įourth, the AP article claims that I misrepresent Obama's position on the Falkland Islands. As Obama has made clear, he views Bin Laden and Al Qaeda quite differently, as international gangsters who go abroad to kill innocent people. I explained Obama's peculiar position by saying that he views these jihadis as freedom fighters seeking to liberate their countries from American occupation. My argument was based on the premise that Obama wants to close down Guantanamo and to extend constitutional rights to jihadis captured in Iraq and Afghanistan. Third, the AP article "refutes" my contention that Obama is weirdly sympathetic to Muslim jihadis fighting against America by pointing out that Obama ordered the killing of Osama Bin Laden and has also approved drone strikes against Al Qaeda. But my point is that these measures are so weak that they cannot be expected to - and in fact haven't - deterred the mullahs in the slightest. By omitting the word "significant," AP can then claim that Obama has taken some measures, including some modest sanctions, against Iran. The prediction was that Obama "would do nothing significant" to prevent Iran from getting nuclear bombs. Actually in the film I recall a prediction that I made in my book The Roots of Obama's Rage. Second, the AP article quotes me as saying that Obama has "done nothing" to prevent Iran from getting nuclear bombs. ![]() ![]() And maybe a sign that consoles are on the way out - with phones about to become quad-core, expect far more advanced games to come to your handset.ĭo you think consoles like the forthcoming PS Vita can compete with the slew of wallet-friendly mobile games? Let us know below, or on our Facebook page. Considering Nintendo has sold about 260 million Mario games in the 30 years it's been making them, Rovio must be justifiably proud of itself.Īdmittedly Angry Birds sells for far cheaper than a full console game, but it's a huge achievement nonetheless.

Previous incarnations include an Easter version, and ones for Halloween and Christmas. ANGRY BIRDS SEASONS YEAR OF THE DRAGON GAMES UPDATEIt's the latest update in the massively successful Angry Birds Seasons series. "Fireworks popping, lanterns glowing, red envelopes bursting with money - it's Chinese New Year! But what are the pigs up to? Stay tuned for more!" So we could see more teasers before the week is over. A quite terrifying pig mask makes an appearance at the end too. The green pigs are shown peeping through the floorboards a couple of times, eyeing up lanterns, eggs, and other goodies in an otherwise tranquil setting. The trailer - which you can see here - doesn't give much away. It seems those green pigs are up to no good again… And it'll tie in with Chinese New Year, which happens three days later, on 23 January. An update to Angry Birds Seasons is due to land on Friday, according to a teaser trailer punted out by Rovio. ![]() ![]() You don't get away with not doing mining or trading. If you do a space sim, you have to do a lot of different gameplay types. They want an open world, with a story, lots of content, exploration, action, trading, mining. "This is what most space game fans want they want a modern day Freelancer. But the most common critique is 'Oh, it's a roguelike. It sold a million copies, so you could say it's a success for an indie. "Everspace has an average rating of eight out of ten, so you could say it's a good game. #Everspace 2 performance seriesStrangely, though, it's also a source of confidence, as it pushes the series into territory that fans have been demanding since the Everspace Kickstarter first launched in August 2015. The fact that Everspace 2 will be an open world game is perhaps the stiffest test that Rockfish faces. We're working with AAA external partners, because when you do open world you need a lot more content, so we're working with Streamline Studios." "The project is much, much bigger," Schade says. #Everspace 2 performance PcWith Everspace, Schade admits, "we were just mobile guys trying to make a PC game," but the sequel arrives on the back of more than a million sales across PC and consoles, and a community that Rockfish has built through a huge amount of diligent effort. The very fact that Everspace 2 is in the line-up for Geoff Keighley's curtain-raising event at the world's biggest consumer games expo is symbolic of just how far Rockfish has come. This isn't how it's supposed to be the 'disconcertingly simple second album' just doesn't have the same ring to it. Speaking with at Devcom, the day before Rockfish is due to officially announce Everspace 2 at Gamescom: Opening Night Live, Schade is clearly grappling with just how right everything feels. Everspace was the first attempt at a PC game from a group of mobile developers fleeing the collapse of the premium market on the app stores. Rockfish itself rose from the ashes of his previous company, Fishlabs, which went bankrupt in 2013. The Hamburg-based studio spent years piecing together a community of players around its first game, Everspace, but its recently announced sequel has presented few of the difficulties associated with a sophomore effort.įor Schade, that sense of calm and confidence is less comforting than one might expect. Second albums are supposed to be difficult, but Rockfish CEO Michael Schade is having a very different experience. ![]() ![]() We provide tools, appliances, outdoor furniture, building materials to Winston Salem, NC residents.

Y, sobre todo, suele darse en personas obesas que durante el día tienen dificultades para mantenerse despiertos. Alrededor del 13 por ciento de los hombres y el 6 por ciento de las mujeres tienen apnea del sueño. Consiste, por tanto, en un ronquido nocturno severo acompañado de pausas respiratorias. La apnea del sueño se produce cuando las vías respiratorias de una persona se bloquean parcial o completamente durante el sueño, y como resultado, la respiración se interrumpe. Mientras tanto, seguiremos hablando particularmente de las dos enfermedades pulmonares que más relación tienen con la diabetes, la apnea del sueño y la EPOC. Y eso es así porque las enfermedades del aparato respiratorio, como la EPOC o el síndrome de apnea, se asocian con un incremento de la resistencia a la insulina y el consiguiente aumento de la prevalencia de alteraciones metabólicas.Įn términos científicos, la “neumopatía diabética” no existe, pero si hablamos de la retinopatía diabética o de la neuropatía diabética, es posible que en un futuro se pueda utilizar este término para denominar a las complicaciones derivadas de la diabetes que se dan en los pulmones. En otras palabras, las personas con diabetes respiran peor que las que no tienen la enfermedad. La diabetes, por sí misma, puede afectar de forma desfavorable a la función pulmonar y a la respiración durante el sueño. Sin embargo, conviene no olvidarnos de nuestros pulmones, ya que existe una relación entre la diabetes y las enfermedades pulmonares, especialmente el síndrome de apnea y la EPOC (enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica). Al paciente con diabetes siempre se le insiste en la importancia que tiene el cuidado de los pies, de la vista, de los riñones, pero no suele ser frecuente que el médico le pregunte si respira bien, ronca o se ahoga. ![]() |
