Since its debut on November 6, 2010, Disunion, The New York Times' acclaimed journal about the Civil War, has published hundreds of original articles and won multiple awards, including "Best History Website" from the New Media Institute and the History News Network. Following the chronology of the secession crisis and the Civil War, the contributors to Disunion, who include modern scholars, journalists, historians, and Civil War buffs, offer ongoing daily commentary and assessment of the Civil War as it unfolded.
Now, for the first time, this fascinating and historically significant commentary has been gathered together and organized in one volume. In The New York Times: Disunion, historian Ted Widmer has selected more than 100 articles that cover events beginning with Lincoln's presidential victory through the Emancipation Proclamation. Topics include everything from Walt Whitman's wartime diary to the bloody guerrilla campaigns in Missouri and Kansas. Esteemed contributors include William Freehling, Adam Goodheart, and Edward Ayers, among others.
The book also compiles new essays that have not been published on the Disunion site, by contributors and well-known historians such as David Blight, Gary Gallagher, and Drew Gilpin Faust. Topics include the perspective of African-American slaves and freed men on the war, the secession crisis in the Upper South, the war in the West (that is, past the Appalachians), the war in Texas, the international context, and Civil War-era cartography.

Enthralling collection of essays about the US Civil War. Lots of little known facts, and fresh look at all aspects of the controversy.
Definitely don't pass this one up!
Would you listen to The New York Times: Disunion again? Why?
To review and retain more of the details about the events leading up to the Civil War.
The book is a collection of historical essays. I don't know that I could pick a favorite character.
As this is a collection of short stories and essays, I don't have a favorite scene.
The New York Times has brought dozens of the critical details about the Civil War through different authors and in so doing has brought a clearer understanding about the events, ideas and the various causes to the war. Some are better told than others, but what strikes me is that each reader will probably like different parts depending on personal preferences about what kinds of trivia interest him or her the most.
Excellent written account of many historic issues not covered in many Civil War books I have read to date. Dates and time lines are given which helped keep me in proper perspective.
These were issues taken from actual writings, newspaper articles, diaries, letters and some historians.
Of particular interest were excerpts from participants' memoirs and actual Civil War Reunions that were held after the War and some of the comments made by those who participated. I thought Pickett's comments at a Gettysburg Reunion was a classic.
I would recommend this book for everyone looking for Civil War facts you won't just find everywhere.
A collection of over 100 short essays on very specific topics. ...excellent! a must !

Check out all the new health features iOS 16 will bring
Apple just announced the latest version of iOS – iOS 16. Among other improvements, it brings new features to its Fitness and Health apps to make it even easier for you to track your health and general wellness. So let's go over them!
New Features in the Fitness App
iOS 16 makes the Fitness app available to all iPhone users; even those who have none Apple Watch can use the app. Using your iPhone's motion sensors, the application tracks your steps, distance, stairs climbed, and workouts from third-party apps to show you how close you are to achieving your Move goal. You can also share your Move ring with friends "for extra motivation".
New features in the Health app
With iOS 16, the Health app gets a new feature called Medicines. It allows you to track your medications, vitamins, or supplements right from your iPhone. The addition to the Health app allows you to create lists of your pills and manage them. Plus, you can create schedules for when to take your prescriptions and reminders not to forget them. If you live in the United States, you can even use your iPhone's camera to add a drug by pointing to the label. If there is a critical drug interaction, US users will also receive a warning when they add it to their list.
For the new Health app feature, Apple has partnered with Elsevier, a leading medical publisher, and if you live in the US, you'll receive "clinically accurate and evidence-based information" about your medications in addition to the warning. As Cupertino showed, US users will be able to rate critical, serious and moderate drug interactions, as well as interaction factors such as alcohol.
The new Medications feature is also supported by the Health Sharing option, which means you can share your medication information with your loved ones as well. As Tim Cook said at the end of the WWDC livestream, we can expect iOS 16 and all the cool features that come with it to be released to Apple users this fall.

When I was young I used to love Sundays because they were relaxing, and as soon as church was over I could chill out, sleep all day, do whatever I wanted. But, since having kids, Sundays have taken on a completely different meaning. They've gone from being the most relaxing day of the week to quite possibly the most exhausting day of the week.
We usually get up around 7:30am. I get breakfast started while Marc hops in the shower. I get the kids and myself fed and start cleaning up when Marc stops through to grab his plate (or bowl) and eat quick before he has to leave for his 8:30 pre-church meetings. After he's gone, I get the kids' church bags together - a couple of story books, a couple of toys, a notepad & pen, and a quiet book. Then, I get the diaper bag ready - diapers, wipes, water and snacks. Since church right now is right in the middle of when we'd have lunch, I pack up a ton. Today, for example, I had pretzels & cheez-its, grapes, clementines, fruit snacks, animal crackers, applesauce, yogurt raisins, and granola bars. Just in the last month I've had a couple of people approach me after the first meeting, commenting on how much money I must spend on snacks!
Anyway, so once all the bags are ready, I start getting the kids dressed for church. This process is sometimes much harder than other times, but if everyone cooperates then it should only takes maybe 10 minutes. But that is a very big IF. I usually try to plan for it taking roughly a half hour. I really am much more optimistic than that last sentence makes me sound!
Once all the kids are dressed and ready, it's usually about time to feed Lucy. That used to be the time when she'd go down for her morning nap, but she has now transitioned to just one nap a day, but she still insists on getting her morning feeding in. Then, if I'm lucky, it's finally my turn to get ready, while keeping the peace between siblings and making sure they don't get into any major messes with their church clothes. Sometime around 10:30 Marc returns to pick us up and lend an extra hand. We're usually able to make it just in time to get to our seats and get settled in before the meeting starts at 11.
Then, the real fun begins! And, by this point I'm already exhausted! An hour of keeping three kids still, quiet, and happy. Marc is finally sitting with us - the first time ever (since we've had kids) and so it has gotten a little easier. But, it's still a lot of work. Somehow I'm usually able to get something out of those meetings and feel renewed by them. And, really, with how energetic and boisterous my kids are on a normal day at home, they do really well at church with all the rules we expect them to follow. They know to be quiet, the know not to run out into the aisles, they know how to partake of the sacrament, they know it's a special place where they are expected to act differently. And, for the most part, they do really well.
The exhausting part is there is no mental break to just zone out. There's constantly someone who needs something and you have to be right on top of it before their impatience takes them to the screaming-bloody-murder phase. I guess there is a little break after the first hour, when we take the kids to their different classes. Except that Lucy is two months shy of being able to start Nursery and she's about six months too mature to just sit quietly on my lap during the adult classes. So, she and I do a lot of wandering right now. And I sometimes wonder why we're even there.
And, then there are other times when I watch Ben get up in Primary to give a talk and he does such a good job, or I watch Lucy fold her arms as soon as she hears the word "prayer", or I listen to Hugh pray all on his own in Nursery. Those are the moments when I realize it's all worth the exhaustion of getting them there, keeping them there, and then coming home and all of us crashing. I don't get an entire day to sleep away, but I have plenty of other moments to sleep. And, the precious moments we spend at church are far and away some of the best we have as a family. Plus, I'm pretty sure the majority of people at church appreciate all of the happy sounds from the children... and I'd really hate for them to miss out on that if we weren't there! It must be quite the show - our little traveling circus!

Taking Your Idea from Concept to Reality...Globally!
Venture Quest Global, LLC is a Veteran-Owned company that provides strategic business planning, education and support for SMB's on a global basis using its proprietary
3-2-1- Launch (C) process.
"About two-thirds of businesses with employees survive at least 2 years and about half survive at least 5 years. As one would expect, after the first few relatively volatile years, survival rates flatten out."
(Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics, Business Employment Dynamics.)
Problem Worth Solving
VQG's Solutions
Start-ups, especially Immpreneurs, and small/mid-sized businesses need business plans, sound coaching, business services, education and management advice to establish and sustain their existence past the critical 2-4 year "Failure" mark – especially when going global. International projects often require detailed Feasibility Studies to identify funding and resource requirements.
Venture Quest Global delivers comprehensive, proprietary…
Plans (Business, Visa, Operations, Feasibility, Marketing and Sales)

Coaching/Consulting (Planning, Strategy, Marketing, HR, Financial, Management)
…services to guide entrepreneurs into sustainable, successful ventures- domestically and internationally.

Small Businesses are important to the growth of jobs in the United States. More than 600,000 businesses are started each year and over one-half will fail due to lack of experience on the owner's part within 2-4 years. In fact, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Business Employment Dynamics, "About two-thirds of businesses with employees survive at least 2 years and about half survive at least 5 years. As one would expect, after the first few relatively volatile years, survival rates flatten out."
The challenge to launching and building successful ventures is to have a solid plan-and then work that plan. However, most entrepreneurs don't have the skills to even write much less research and develop the financials for a solid plan. They need skilled coaches to ensure that they are following the plan. They also need to know when they need to alter the plan.
The VQG Solution
Our solution is to provide education, planning, global guidance and one-on-one coaching and consulting for Entrepreneurs and Small/Medium Business (SMB) owners-whether they are starting a new child care facility or expanding into global markets.
The VQG program is based on our proprietary 3-2-1- Launch Process©. We start by conducting a thorough Situation Analysis to determine the right model and the Big Idea. Then we conduct detailed Research to determine the feasibility of the Idea. Only then will we develop a comprehensive Business Plan. It's important to note that no two plans are alike. A plan for the launch of a childcare facility is much different than that of an immigrant seeking their L-1 Visa to establish a business in the U.S. We know and understand those differences. We also prepare thorough Export/Import Feasibility Plans…
Do I need to have a business plan to work with VQG?
No way! We like to sit down with clients when they are in the "Thinking" stage. We will be very honest in our assessment of your plans. While we've learned to never tell anyone that their idea won't work, we can help you come to an understanding of what it will take to be successful.
How much does a business plan cost?
Prices vary from as little as $1,000 to $5,000+ depending on the focus and detail necessary. Your VQG Business Partner will present the options to you at the Initial consultation and you can make the call!
What if I've never worked internationally? How do you help me "Go Global"?
The simple answer is…carefully and strategically. There is a process for everything we do in business. The decision to "Go Global" is made with much thought and research. We will walk you through each step of the process explaining the pros and cons of each and helping you to make the ultimate decision…which may be to NOT "Go Global"!
Where have some of the people you have helped establish U.S. businesses come from-and what kinds of businesses?
Our staff have worked with people from the Caribbean island of Dominica (working on a plan to launch a line of food products in the U.S.) to a baker from Venezuela. Our clients have also launched a new line of tea from China and we researched the establishment of a new coffee line from Brazil.
What export programs have you worked on?
We are currently working with a company to provide renewable energy products and services to government entities in African countries as well as assisting a Houston-based logistics company with the expansion of its services into Dubai.
What is involved with a trade show/exhibit program?
We really like these! We have over 35 years of managing the design, construction, shipping, set-up, and management of trade show exhibits worldwide. The exhibits have ranged from a simple banner stand or table top display to double-decker displays and even displays with helicopters flying from the roof! Our staff were among the first U.S. group to exhibit in Beijing, PRC. But even more important than the structure itself, is the training of the staff so that the exhibit project is successful in terms of sales, not just aesthetics! We leave nothing to chance!

I have seen how he has played a key role in assisting entrepreneurs from the idea stage to a successful businesses even if that takes 10 years."
N. Pavon
"We called Don because our business was stagnate, and we needed guidance and direction on marketing, organizational structure, culture, etc. Don gave us a framework and prioritized what we needed to get done. Our revenues increased 60% and we finally became profitable after 15 years of trying. Don helped us find our niche and what separated us from other tennis clubs. He also helped us find financing options for much needed capital maintenance and improvements. Most importantly, Don gave us a vision and pathway for success."
S. Giammalva
"I have had the pleasure to work with Don Ball as my business consultant for the past nine years.

Maidstone Green have hit out at the hypocrisy of the local Lib Dems in agreeing to fund the continued paving in the town centre just a few years after they roundly criticised the Tories for doing the same. They have also highlighted the severe needs that the £3.1m could start to address such as the 10 fold increase in homelessness locally since 2010 or the air pollution that is killing 130 people each year in the borough.
Stuart Jeffery, Coordinator of Maidstone Green Party: "The Lib Dems have made a very poor decision to continue spending scarce resources on paving more of the town centre. This poor decision is on top of the hypocrisy which saw the Lib Dems harshly criticise the Tories for doing exactly the same when they ran the council just a few years ago. Worse still, at the time the Lib Dems were criticising the Tory plans they stated that this was a lost opportunity to tackle key issues in the Borough including air pollution. Maidstone's Lib Dem run council is now making the same poor choice that their predecessors made.
"The Lib Dems cite a potential for 1% more sales in the town centre as a reason for paving Week St and Gabriels Hill. Meanwhile 130 people are dying each year in Maidstone because of air pollution caused by traffic which will increase under Lib Dem economic, housing and transport plans.
"If they wanted an immediate benefit to the town they could have spent the money on building some truly affordable homes close to the town centre. Homelessness has risen ten fold in the past five years yet new house building is focused on large, unaffordable properties unsuitable for people in real need."
There were 60 homelessness 'decisions' in 2010/11 http://www.maidstone.gov.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0005/9518/Homelessness-Strategy-2014-2019-Sept-2014.pdf
From Q1 to Q3 2015/16 there were 455 homelessness 'decisions' https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/live-tables-on-homelessness#detailed-local-authority-level-responses suggesting a full year forecast of 607, a ten fold increase in five years.

WHO WAS MIKE DURSO AND WHERE DID HE GO?
Posted on August 15, 2017 | 20 comments
I would guess that hot jazz, especially the Chicagoan variety, would have upset Hercule Poirot's delicate stomach, but we could use his help on this matter. This posting owes its existence to my new jazz-friend (although I've read his work for a long time), Larry Kart of Chicago. I'll let Larry start us off:
You may be way ahead of me here (at least I hope you are), but listening to the radio Saturday, I heard this 1927 track "The New Twister" by The Wolverines (Bix's old band under the leadership of pianist Dick Voynow, with Jimmy McPartland taking Bix's place). The music has IMO a proto-Chicagoans feel (the first McKenzie-Condon sides were shortly to be made). Drummer Vic Moore has a nice a "Chicago shuffle" feel going, 17-year-old reedman Maurice Bercov, says Dick Sudhalter in "Lost Chords," had "heard Johnny Dodds and the rest on the South Side but worshipped Frank Teschmacher, emulating his tone, attack, off-center figures … he wound up recording two months before his idol [did] ."
But who the heck was trombonist Mike Durso, who takes the IMO impressively fluid solo here?
Thanks to "Atticus Jazz" for the lovely transfer of this rare 78, as always:
The personnel of this band is listed as Dick Voynow, piano; director; Jimmy McPartland, cornet; Mike Durso, trombone; Maurie Bercov, clarinet, alto saxophone; unknown guitar; Basil Dupre, sb / Vic Moore, d. Chicago, October 12, 1927.
Back to Larry:
By contrast, here is THE NEW TWISTER played by Miff Mole and the Molers (with Red Nichols, et al.) from the same year. Mole's trombone work here is not without its charms, but in terms of swing and continuity, it's day and night, no?
To complicate matters (or to add more evidence) here is the reverse side of that disc, SHIM-ME-SHA-WABBLE:
Larry continues:
The guitarist on the Wolverines track is Dick McPartland, Jimmy's brother. Bercov's contemporary, pianist Tut Soper, described him as an "extremely galling, sarcastic and difficult man."
Looking for more on Durso, I came across this "moderne" 1928 piece by trumpeter Donald Lindley, "Sliding Around," on which Durso may be a sideman. (There's no trombone solo though.) Jazz it's not, though it's certainly aware of jazz — those oblique references to "Royal Garden Blues." That's Lindley , b. 1899, in the cap [the YouTube portrait]:
The beautiful video is by our friend Enrico Borsetti, another one of my benefactors, and the Lindley side eerily prefigures the Alec Wilder Octet.
Finally, here is LIMEHOUSE BLUES by "The Wolverine Orchestra" which might have Durso audible in solo and ensemble:
After Larry had asked me about Durso, and I had to confess that I'd barely registered his name or these recordings, and I had no information to offer (he'd stumped the band), I went back to the discography and was pleased to find that Durso had a history, 1923-28 and then 1939: recording for Gennett under the band name "Bailey's Lucky Seven" which had in its collective personnel Jules Levy, Jr., Jimmy Lytell, Red Nichols, Frank Signorelli, Hymie Farberman; then Sam Lanin, with Vic Berton, Merle Johnson, Joe Tarto, John Cali, Tony Colucci, Ray Lodwig; sessions with the Arkansas / Arkansaw Travelers, a Nichols group where the trombonist may be Mole or Durso. That takes him from 1923-25; he then records with Ray Miller, with Volly DeFaut. All of this takes him to 1926, and all of it is (if correctly annotated) recorded in New York. The Wolverines sides above are in 1927, in Chicago, as a re 1928 sides with the larger Wolverines unit, Donald Lindley, and Paul Ash (a "theatre orchestra," Larry says).
Then, a gap of a decade, and Durso, in 1939, is part of the Vincent Lopez Orchestra, recording for Bluebird. Then silence.
I realize that discographies are not infallible research documents, and that Durso might have made dozens of sides that a jazz discography would not notate, so I am sure this listing is incomplete and thus not entirely accurate. But, to paraphrase Lesley Gore, I think, it's my blog and I'll surmise if I want to. I am going to guess that Durso, probably born around 1900 or slightly earlier, was one of those musicians who could read a tune off a stock arrangement, blend with another trombone in a section, improvise a harmony part, knew his chords, and could — as you hear above — play a very forward-looking solo given the chance. Remember that THE NEW TWISTER came out in 1927. Who were the trombonists of note? Ory, Brunis, Tommy Dorsey, Jimmy Harrison, Charlie Green, Benny Morton, Mole, perhaps Charlie Butterfield. Teagarden may or may not have impressed everyone yet. (I am sure I have left out a few names.) Durso had technique but wasn't in love with it, and his playing is lightly swinging and mobile; his solos make logical sense, with no cliches.
So between 1923 and 1928 or so he is what we might call "a studio man," who obviously is known for his improvising ability, otherwise he would not have been in the studio with McPartland. (Scott Black! Did Dugald ever mention Mike Durso?) More speculation follows. I can safely assume that pre-Crash, Durso might have made a living as an improvising musician, but at some point the safer employment of sweeter big bands might have called to him. Did he have a family to support? Did he perhaps appreciate a regular paycheck playing in theatres and dancehalls as opposed to playing in speakeasies? I can't say, having even less that speculation to go on. Did he die after 1939, or do some war work and decide that getting home after 5 PM with a lunch pail was easier than being a hot man?
The trail goes cold here. Perhaps some readers can assist us here. I know that you know, to quote Jimmie Noone. And if no one can, at least we have the collective pleasure of having heard Mike Durso on THE NEW TWISTER. Thanks in the present tense to Larry Kart; thanks in advance to those of you who will flood the comments section with information.

André Sicre, död 1733 i Paris, var en fransk ingenjörsofficer, som även var adjutant till Fredrik av Hessen och ofta utpekad som Karl XII:s mördare.

Biografi
Sicre blev skeppsbruten på ön Chios 1712 och trädde därefter i Karl XII:s tjänst i Bender. Han följde med svenskarna till Stralsund och deltog därefter i försvaret av staden. Han tillfångatogs, men lyckades fly till Sverige 1716. Sicre anställdes av Fredrik av Hessen vid Södra skånska kavalleriregementet och blev därefter både överadjutant och generaladjutant till Fredrik av Hessen. Under Karl XII:s andra norska fälttåg 1718, medföljde Sicre trupperna till Fredriksten. Sent på kvällen den 30 november befann sig Sicre i löpgravarna kring kungen. Han försvann dock innan kungen sköts, men återkom strax därefter. Han lade sin peruk och hatt över kungens ansikte och tog själv på sig Karl XII:s genomskjutna hatt. Han red därefter till Fredrik av Hessens högkvarter i Torpum för att framföra meddelandet om kungens död. Därefter red han till Stockholm och informerade Ulrika Eleonora om händelserna i Fredriksten. Efter det misslyckade fälttåget blev Sicre utnämnd till överstelöjtnant vid Livdragonerna av Fredrik av Hessen, men rykten om Sicres inblandning i Karl XII:s död började florera i Stockholm; bland annat trädde en löjtnant vid namn Schultz fram och påstod sig ha hört att Sicre skulle få 3000 eller 5000 dukater för att mörda Karl XII. På grund av ryktena, skickade Fredrik av Hessen Sicre utomlands, men han återkom till den svenska huvudstaden 1722. Han var då insjuknad i tyfus och var även i mental obalans. Under sommaren 1723 var Sicre drabbad av en febersjukdom och i förvirringen öppnade han ett stort fönster i sin våning och ropade ut till förbipasserande att han var den som mördade Karl XII. Fredrik av Hessen, som vid det tillfället blivit Fredrik I av Sverige, försökte tysta ned händelsen och sätta stopp för ryktesspridningen. När Sicre återhämtat sig från febern, tog han tillbaka erkännandet, men det rådde inte bot på ryktena. 1728 började Sicres mentala hälsa bli bättre, varför han reste tillbaka till Frankrike. Sicres ekonomi var mycket dålig; hans sjuklön var låg, men han skrev ständigt brev till det svenska kungaparet, vilka skickade mindre summor pengar till honom. André Sicre avled fattig i Paris 1733.

Enligt Bengt Liljegren talar mycket för att Sicre mördade Karl XII, men att bevis för detta förmodligen aldrig kommer kunna framläggas.

Q: Why function does not know the array size? If I write
int main()
{
    int a[100] = {1,2,3,4,};
    cout<<sizeof(a)/sizeof(a[0])<<endl; //a is a pointer to the first elem of array,
                                        //isn't it
    return 0;
}

I get 400!
If I write
void func(int *a);
int main()
{
    int a[100] = {1,2,3,4,};
    func(a);
    return 0;
}

void func(int *a)
{
     cout<<sizeof(a)/sizeof(a[0])<<endl; //a is a pointer to the first elem of array
}

Then I get 1!
So why function does not know the array size?

A: Arrays decay to pointers when passed to functions, so all you will get is the size of the pointer.

A: sizeof returns the size of the type.  In the second example, func( int *a ), a is a pointer and sizeof will report it as such.  Even if you did func( int a[100] ), a would be a pointer.  If you want the size of the array in func, you must pass it as an extra argument.

A: This isn't working because sizeof is calculated at compile-time. The function has no information about the size of its parameter (it only knows that it points to a memory address).
Consider using an STL vector instead, or passing in array sizes as parameters to functions.
This was answered by Marcel Guzman in Calculating size of an array!

A: When passing your array as a parameter to a function taking a pointer, the array decays as a pointer.
void bar(int *a)
{
    std::cout << sizeof(a) << std::endl; // outputs "4" (on a 32 bit compiler)
}

void foo()
{
    int a[100] ;
    std::cout << sizeof(a) << std::endl; // outputs "400" (on a 32 bit compiler)
    bar(a);
}

So perhaps the solution is to provide a correct function taking a reference to an array as a parameter :
template <size_t T_Size>
void bar(int (&a)[T_Size])
{
    std::cout << T_Size << std::endl;    // outputs "100" (on ALL compilers)
    std::cout << sizeof(a) << std::endl; // outputs "400" (on a 32 bit compiler)
}

void foo()
{
    int a[100] ;
    std::cout << sizeof(a) << std::endl; // outputs "400" (on a 32 bit compiler)
    bar(a);
}

Of course, the function must be templated.

A: No. You are wrong.
If I run your second part of code, it gives 1 on my computer. It's not 400.
#include <iostream>

void func(int *a);

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    int a[100] = {1,2,3,4,};
    func(a);
    return 0;
}

void func(int *a)
{
     cout<<sizeof(a)/sizeof(a[0])<<endl;
}

Produces
1

A: You get 400 the first time because you are passing only sizeof(a), not sizeof(a)/sizeof(a[0]), to cout.  You need to wrap that calculation with parenthesis to get the correct value outputted, ie:
cout << (sizeof(a)/sizeof(a[0])) << endl;

For the second time, you should be getting 2, 4, or 8 (depending on architecture), definately not 400, since you are essentially outputting this:
cout << sizeof(int*) << endl;

Where the size of a generic pointer is always a fixed value.

A: A pointer is a pointer. That means, it simply points to memory, and that's all about it. Creating a pointer to an array (which usually means a pointer to the first element of the array, but not necessarily) is still only a pointer to some memory location. As a memory address is simply a memory address there is also no way for the pointer to know that the memory it is pointing to originally was an array, or how long that array was.
It's simply how pointers work. They point to memory, and that's all.

A: The function does not know the array size in your example because you took explicit steps to convert your array to pointer type, thus completely stripping the function parameter of its original array nature. Once again, you yourself took deliberate steps to make sure that the function does not know the size of the array. Under these circumstances, it is rather strange to see you ask the question about why the function doesn't know the array size.
If you what the function to receive its argument as an array, you have to pass it as an array, not as a mere pointer, and declare the corresponding function parameter accordingly. Arrays in C++ cannot be passed "by value", which means that you'll have to pass it "by reference", as one possibility
void func(int (&a)[100])
{
  cout << sizeof a / sizeof a[0] << endl;
}

MANCHESTER, England — An ugly win for Manchester United. An even uglier loss for West Ham.
United scored twice through Marcus Rashford in the opening 24 minutes then produced a gritty, ultra-defensive display to grind out a 2-1 win over fierce rival Liverpool and strengthen second place in the Premier League.
"It was perfect, in relation to what the game gave us," said United manager Jose Mourinho, who won the tactical battle over rival manager Juergen Klopp.
There was as much action in the stands as on the field at West Ham, where home fans invaded the field on two separate occasions to confront players and gathered below the directors' box to force the club's owners to be escorted out in the second half of the 3-0 loss to Burnley.
Young fans were pictured taking refuge in Burnley's dug-out amid the disorder.
"It's well known fans haven't been happy for a long time," said West Ham captain Mark Noble, who grabbed one of the pitch invaders and threw him to the ground in one exchange.
West Ham stayed just above the relegation zone with its latest heavy defeat — a week after losing 4-1 at fellow relegation rival Swansea — but its Premier League plight is nothing compared to West Bromwich Albion's.
A 4-1 home loss to Leicester left West Brom in last place on 20 points, seven from safety with eight games left.
Liverpool's players failed to recover from a first half where they were bullied by United and failed to deal with the hosts' direct and aggressive approach.
The source of both goals was long clearances by United goalkeeper David De Gea to Romelu Lukaku, whose power and athleticism was too much for marker Dejan Lovren.
Lukaku's flick-on was seized by Rashford, who drove in the first goal in the 14th minute. Then Lovren fell to the ground in an aerial challenge with Lukaku, whose pass into the area was intercepted only for Rashford to sidefoot home the loose ball.
United packed its defense, with wingers Juan Mata and Rashford playing as auxiliary full backs and central midfielders Nemanja Matic and Scott McTominay patrolling in front of the defense. Liverpool's top scorer Mohamed Salah had a quiet day, and was thrown to the ground by Chris Smalling at one point.
United moved five points clear of third-place Liverpool and stayed nine points ahead of Chelsea.
Criticized for walking around at times in last weekend's loss at Man City, Chelsea's players were enjoying a stroll against Crystal Palace — until the final 10 minutes.
Chelsea was 2-0 up after 32 minutes after a strike by in-form winger Willian and an own-goal by Martin Kelly.
Palace fought back late on and, after Alexander Sorloth had a goal disallowed, Patrick van Aanholt scored in the 90th to ensure a nervy finish.
One of the more bizarre scenes during a chaotic second half at the Olympic Stadium was the sight of a man running toward the center circle while holding aloft a corner flag.
More worrying was Noble, clearly enraged, grappling with another pitch invader with no stewards anywhere in range.
It was a return of the crowd disorder that marked the team's first few weeks in the stadium, where it moved in the summer of 2016 on a rented basis after leaving its Upton Park home of 112 years.
West Ham has called an emergency meeting and said it was "committed to taking decisive and appropriate action" after launching a "full and thorough investigation" into the disorder.
The problems started after Ashley Barnes gave Burnley the lead in the 66th minute. Chris Wood added two further goals as West Ham collapsed to be only three points above the relegation zone with eight games left.
West Brom manager Alan Pardew will hold talks with the club's owners after a seventh straight loss in all competitions left the team destined for the second tier.
"They might think a change is a better thing for the club, I don't know," said Pardew.
West Brom took the lead through Salomon Rondon. Jamie Vardy equalized before Leicester scored second-half goals through Riyad Mahrez, Kelechi Iheanacho and Vicente Iborra.
It is West Brom's worst run of results in 15 years.
Everton and Newcastle eased their relegation concerns with convincing wins.
Wayne Rooney's missed penalty had little effect as Everton was already 2-0 ahead against 10-man Brighton and on its way to a third straight home win to climb to ninth place.
Newcastle won 3-0 at home to Southampton, with on-loan Brazilian Kenedy scoring twice, to move five points clear of the bottom three.
Swansea played with just 10 men from the 11th minute to draw 0-0 at Huddersfield. Both teams are four points above the relegation zone.


It's International Women's Day, which is the perfect opportunity for me to highlight 3 women I truly admire: our first three full-time hires.
Merissa Mahon came to us as an intern out of FIT, and once we saw her hard-working, get-it-done-at-all-costs attitude we knew we had to bring her on as our Marketing Manager.
Allison Thomas, our Product Development and Ops Coordinator, approached us at Afropunk looking for an internship. We recognized her drive immediately, and she spent the next six weeks tackling every challenge that came her way.
Nadia Burgess, our Operations Lead, came from the world of luxury fashion and brought her no-nonsense, work-through-the-night style with her.
All three of these women are smart, capable, and the core of our Mented team. Read below for what makes them tick! I'm excited to celebrate them and all go-getter women today.

REVS SILENCE BARN
(September 14, 2022 – Lancaster, Pa.): Austin Mora combined on a clean sheet for his first Atlantic League victory as the York Revolution squashed the Lancaster Barnstormers, 9-0 on Wednesday night at Clipper Magazine Stadium. York's offense knocked 12 hits while the pitching allowed just three in Lancaster's hangover game after clinching a postseason berth the night before.
The Revs got an early scare in the first when a fastball from Lancaster starter Bret Clarke hit Telvin Nash in the hand. Nash stayed in the game initially but exited in the second.
The second inning saw the bulk of the Revs offense for the night, as a big five spot against Clarke put them ahead early. After Melky Mesa led off the inning with a single and advanced on a wild pitch, he came around to score the first run of the game on the league-leading 37th double of the year from Elmer Reyes. Jhon Nunez knocked in two more on a two-out single, bringing his season total to 28 driven in. JC Encarnacion took over for Nash and blasted a pinch-hit two-run triple to left to make it 5-0 York.
The pinch hit was the 10th of Encarnacion's York career, breaking a club record previously held by Andrew Dundon. Of the five pinch hits for Encarnacion this season, four have gone for extra bases with six driven in.
Mora (1-1) followed a tough debut on the mound with a phenomenal outing, tossing 5.1 scoreless innings, allowing just two hits. The rookie right-hander had to work around four walks but was able to strike out five in the outing.
Kyle Zurak replaced Mora and retired the first two he faced on a popup and strikeout looking to end the sixth.
After Encarnacion led off the top of the seventh with a double, he scored two batters later on an RBI groundout from Mesa. Encarnacion had taken off from third on contact and scored as the throw from third base pulled catcher Anthony Peroni up the line. The RBI brought Mesa's career total to a Revs record 315.
Franklin Van Gurp pitched the seventh for York and after allowing a leadoff double, retired the next three he faced to keep the Barnstormers scoreless.
Reyes led off the eighth for York with yet another double, the 38th of his season. The two-bagger tied him for second in Revs history in single season doubles, matching Andres Perez' mark from 2013. He is now two shy of Isaias Tejeda's record of 40 set in 2019 with four games remaining.
The offense didn't slow down in the ninth as Nellie Rodriguez launched his 25th home run of the season, a two-run shot that cleared the batter's eye in dead center field. Rodriguez joins Chris Nowak as the only two in Revs history with multiple 25-homer seasons while his total is now tied for fourth in a season in team history and ranks fifth in the league this season. Rodriguez also becomes the seventh in Revs history to hit 50 home runs in his York career. Reyes drove in a run later in the inning on a groundout, bringing the York lead to 9-0.
Roniel Raudes capped off two scoreless innings in relief in the ninth, giving York their fourth shutout win of the year in the dominating 9-0 victory.
York will look to end the 2022 War of the Roses on a high note as Deyvis Julian takes the mound on Thursday, fresh off victory in a strong York debut. The rubber match of the series gets underway at 6:30 p.m. Revs fans can catch the action live on SportsRadio 98.9 FM & 1350 WOYK, 989woyk.com, The New WOYK app, and the WOYK YouTube channel beginning at 6:10 p.m. with Darrell Henry and Jake Ness on the call.
