I came across this problem recently and I didn’t actually manage to find a solution online for a change so I thought I had better post about it. All of a sudden the word count in my WordPress site was showing zero on every post. Continue reading Word Count Not Working in WordPress
So a few days ago Donald Trump was making a speech at a campaign rally in Buffalo, New York when he made a terrible gaffe when speaking about the 9/11 disaster and instead referred to 7-Eleven (a chain store of convenience shops).
Instead of calling the event the 9/11 disaster – he called it ‘7-Eleven’ – in fact he said: “I watched our police and our firemen down at 7-Eleven – down at the World Trade Center”.
He didn’t even seem to realize this mistake at the time he made it but no doubt it was pointed out to him very soon afterwards.
However, even so he has yet to apologize for the gaffe, two days later, even after a social media outburst that means there is no way he doesn’t realize the mistake he made.
Trump does seem to be prone to not thinking before he speaks but possibly this is his worst gaffe…yet. We will wait and see what else he has to offer the media.
Check out the video from CNN for the speech that he made here:
There are a couple of reasons why you might be wondering where you can get Inulin as shown below.
If you were watching the BBC TV program ‘How to Stay Young’ recently you may have seen a segment whereby Angela Rippon, who is 71 but in very good shape for her age, underwent an MRI scan to check her insides.
Although she had come out well in other tests, there was an obvious excess of visceral fat showing in the scan pictures both around her heart and in her abdomen, the levels she had were much higher than they should have been for her age group.
The results of having too much visceral fat can be very detrimental to your health – for example you have an increased risk of health problems such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease as well as strokes and dementia, and if you can it is worth trying to reduce the amount of visceral fat in your body.
As a result of this she was recommended by doctors to take inulin for 6 months to try and reduce the levels of visceral fat in her body. You can take inulin in powdered form and just add it to your food. So if you saw the program maybe you are wondering where can you get inulin?
Well you can get it at local specialist health food shops and you can also get it online. There is quite a wide selection of Inulin available from Amazon mostly in powdered form and in different quantities. Check out some of the links below for different options:
Inulin is a natural product that is found in plants. You can get the same effect as taking inulin by eating certain foods, however, if you wanted to have the same effect by eating things like chick peas and lentils, you would have to eat a very large quantity of them so perhaps the inulin supplement is the way to go.
It seems likely that a lot of us are carrying extra visceral fat that could be damaging our health but unfortunately we are unlikely to be able to have an MRI just to check the levels. But if you have a protruding abdomen and you are carrying extra weight around your belly then it is quite possible that you have too much visceral fat.
If this is the case then it is worth thinking about taking an inulin supplement to try and decrease those levels. You can add the powder to your food so that you don’t even notice that you are taking it.
Angela Rippon is now taking the supplement and it will be interesting to see if they do a follow up to see what kind of effect it has had on her visceral fat levels.
The other reason you might be wanting to get hold of Inulin is if you are thinking of following the Nemecheck protocol. This is a protocol of supplements that are supposed to help with non-verbal autistic children and getting them to speak. Inulin is part of that protocol.
It is no secret that top sports people, including golfers, can earn a lot of money. Not only do they earn money from taking part in (and hopefully winning) tournaments, but they also earn a lot of money from sponsorship deals, in fact these days they often earn more money from that than their actual sports earnings!
But regardless of sponsorship deals it can be interesting to look at money that golfers can earn from tournaments. In order to check on the top level of earnings that a golfer might be able to achieve, we have looked back on the earnings of Tiger Woods from when he turned professional.
Obviously looking at someone who was so successful will give a good idea of the maximum earnings a golfer can strive for not including sponsorships. But also in Woods’ case, you can see the effect of the bad years that he has had due to his personal situation and injuries.
Most tournaments that you take part in as a golfer offer prize money to all levels of participants – the bigger the tournament the higher the prize money of course.
Dropping just one extra shot in a tournament can lose you a large chuck of money so it is no wonder golfers need to be concentrating at all times and don’t like to have any distractions when playing.
So here are the annual tournament earnings of Tiger Woods from when he turned professional in 1996:
2015 – $448,598
2014 – $108,275
2013 – $8,553,439
2012 – $ 6,133,159
2011 – $ 660,238.00
2010 – $ 2,090,477.00
2009 – $ 9,434,813.00
2008 – $ 5,875,000.00
2007 – $ 12,217,052.00
2006 – $ 11,291,563.00
2005 – $ 10,870,522.00
2004 – $ 6,925,471.00
2003 – $ 7,373,413.00
2002 – $ 8,789,225.00
2001 – $ 6,846,108.00
2000 – $ 10,318,321.00
1999 – $ 6,816,584.00
1998 – $ 2,241,116.00
1997 – $ 2,376,831.00
1996 – $ 906,170.00
Looking at the annual earnings for other golfers it seems that the top golfer of the year earns around $8-12m depending on how many events they play and how dominant they are in those events.
For example in 2015 Jordan Speith was dominant with earnings of over $12 million, up with Tiger’s top earnings.
However, in 2014 Rory McIlroy was the top earning golfer but he actually ‘only’ earned over $8 million.
If you have an SLR camera, whether it be digital or not, you have the option to choose different settings with which to take your photos. This gives you much more control over how your pictures turn out.
However, a lot of people buy a good camera and then just use it on the automatic setting so that the camera itself decides what speed and what aperture the lens will fire at. It may also choose the ISO setting for that shot. It is very easy just to keep using the camera on the automatic setting and you can get perfectly good shots by doing this, but if you want to be a bit more inventive with your photography then you need to take that step to learn how to use the manual settings.
So, if you want more control over how your pictures turn out, and you want your pictures to look more professional, then try experimenting with the different settings. The best idea is to actually read the instruction booklet that came with your camera but some of those are hundreds of pages long and realistically how many people do that?
So, there are some different settings on your camera – you may have the picture icons which will customise the kind of settings that you might use – for example if you choose the sport option you will get a faster shutter speed at the expense of depth of field and it may also automatically turn on the multi-frame option.
Otherwise you may have the following setttings:
Av – Aperture priority – where you choose the width of the aperture (this controls the depth of field)
Tv – Shutter priority – where you set the shutter speed and the camera chooses the aperture
M – Completely manual – you choose both settings which means that you need to make sure that you have the right combination that will let enough light in for the picture to be correctly exposed.
I will explain the first two options below.
