Charge!
Paul disclosed that he just happened to have significant numbers of never-before-seen French troops in the huge underground bunker which evidently stores his vast stocks of wargaming goodness. Naturally, an opportunity was immediately invented to get them onto the table, against Ross's British. As we'd never really played a game using VLE with significant numbers of cavalry, we took the opportunity to give it ago.
A simple table for simple folks - infantry country in the centre, cavalry on the flanks
The table was set with very little terrain; the river was entirely decorative except in the central area where it was a major obstacle to cavalry or guns (but not to infantry). Both players' objectives were simply to capture each other's village which retaining control of their own!
Both players got to select troops with a flexible list system we use, and interestingly came up with a very similar split of forces - the French had one more regiment of cavalry, the British one more infantry battalion. Both brought along three batteries of artillery; all were light guns although the British were all RHA and so more mobile than the French foot batteries.
So, we kicked off; Paul massed his horsemen (including two beautifully-painted Guard regiments) on the left, while Ross positioned a couple of regiments of light dragoons on the other side to support his infantry. The French won the Initiative and advanced with alactrity.
The French deploy and push forward at great speed
British Infantry brigades mass on their left, with the Heavy Brigade in the distance on their right
The French go defensive on the right, holding back some poor-quality Wurtemburg battalions...
... while pushing their first wave of cavalry across the river on the left, supported by two batteries of guns
British dragoons seize a chance to gut an enemy light cavalry regiment, but pursue in disorder before halting winded and so are, in turn, routed by supporting French.
As the Guard pours across the bridge in the centre...
... the Scots Greys meet their match on the right, and are broken by their Nemesis - French lancers!
The French artillery grab a piece of the action, manning their guns with deadly accuracy
The British right in chaos - a mess of broken and heavily-damaged regiments, as the French reserves arrive
The cavalry action on the British right developed very quickly, and not to their advantage. The French attack in the centre never even had a chance to gain momentum before we decided it was "Game over, man" for the British. The speed with which the cavalry swung this battle astonished us all - the game was over in two hours (these Division-sized, multi-player games normally meander along all day!)
Well, there was only one thing to do - have another game! Both sides resurrected their dead and redeployed; we were ready to roll again before lunch!
After pies, Ross decided to position the British entirely on the centre-left, and pushed strongly forward on this side. Initially, this looked as if it would catch the French napping, as most of Paul's cavalry was again strung out on his left flank.
The British huddle!
Screened by the 60th Rifles...
... the British push forward, hoping to overwhelm the French right
The French start to swing their cavalry across...
... but will they be in time? The Wurtenburgers still look shaky...
Ross pushed forward, but somehow didn't seem to get a momentum going - it seemed to take ages for his men to reach the enemy lines. Meanwhile, the more dynamic French cavalry (led, of course, by the Imperial Chasseurs á Cheval de la Garde) were pouncing mercilessly on the troops holding the British right (in the centre of the field).
British guns pour canister into the Chasseurs, but they just keep on coming
The gunners take shelter in a square, and the Chasseurs charge on to casually sweep away some British light dragoons who had the temerity to stand in their way
British columns finally assaulted the poor Wurtemburgers, who surprised nobody by dying in droves and routing. Suddenly, a hole had opened, and Obaix looked to be within reach.
The Wurtemburgers evaporate, but some Proper Frenchmen arrive to save the day
However it was not to be. A French battalion promptly attacked from the woods, pouring volley fire into the British column's exposed flank before plunging in with La Bayonnet.
At the same time, the supporting British cavalry charged the French gun line on the hill - only to be surprised and cut to ribbons by a French reserve cavalry brigade which had been sitting patiently, concealed on the reverse slope.
Cuirassiers - the Hammer of God...
With that the British were becoming encircled and were out of options -another stonking French success. A longer and more interesting game, but again over remarkably quickly, just taking a leisurely afternoon.
Both games showed the importance, speed and striking power of cavalry, but also their fragility. VLE treats cavalry as one-shot weapons - casualties in cavalry-cavalry melees tend to be one-sided and heavy on the losers - and this game brought that out fully.
In both games, the British horsemen were destroyed by a combination of occasionally ridiculous luck in Paul's dice-throwing, but also well-judged skill in using his troops to draw the British into poor situations and an uncanny ability to have heavy cavalry or lancers in just the right place to run down and destroy disordered enemy.
The Guard cavalry must be singled out for Mentions in Dispatches - in the first game, the Grenadiers á Cheval just shrugged off a potentially fatal morale roll with a double-6, while in the second game the Guard Chasseurs were simply unstoppable. Both regiments had clearly been armed with Lucky Dice, and wielded them mercilessly!
Paul has also written an account of the day - do go and see his excellent blog.

Did you notice any white coating on your tongue? The white coating found on the tongue are actually formed by countless of unusual microbes known as biofilm. There are usually many accumulated bacteria found on the tongue which will cause bad breath.
Proper oral care and tongue brushing can help to minimize the problem. You can either use a tongue cleaner or toothbrush to eliminate the white coating on the tongue. This can help to lessen the bad breath. We have to do these steps repeatedly daily because the biofilm cannot be eliminated forever and will reestablish itself again after a while.
The white coating on the tongue can also be caused by dry mouth. If you are not drinking enough water, it is quite likely that the food particles left on your mouth will stick onto the tongue. Water will help to flush away the food particles and will minimize the chance of food particles sticking onto the tongue. Avoid drinking milk based products such as coffee, milk tea or even soy milk which can also be the contributing factors to the white coating. Besides brushing your teeth 2 – 3 times a day, you should also floss and clean your tongue. You should also visit the dentist every 6 months.

Works on reconstructing the Liburnska Coast in Zadar start today
The port infrastructure works on the peninsula in the centre of Zadar, worth €9 million, are expanding to the Liburnska Coast. Phase I, lasting until the end of December, will see the reconstruction of 130 m of shore centred around the town bridge.
The Zadar waterfront reconstruction project, begun in July with the works on the Coast King Petar Krešimir IV, is entering a new stage. To mark the occasion, Port Authority Zadar called a press conference for Friday, 1 October, where they presented the progress of their biggest project.
"The paving was removed from an area of around 1.000 sq. m, 580 cubic metres of material was excavated, underwater and above ground. Likewise, approximately 140 of the 530 concrete foundation walls have been constructed in the length of 120 metres. We started on the construction of the surface wall, 12 metres have already been built and we have started preparation for the delivery of paving stones. The works are progressing according to plan. I believe that by next season we will have completed 70 per cent of the works on the lower waterfront so we don't disturb the next tourist season any more than this season", the Director of Port Authority Zadar Robert Škifić pointed out.
Starting on Monday, the works are extending to engulf the Liburnska Coast, initially a 130-meter section from the town bridge in a north-western direction. In time this stage will come to include the reconstruction of 600 metres of shore, pedestrian surfaces and five former ferry ramps.
The problems facing the eastern portion of Liburnska Coast are inadequate rainwater drainage and the slope of the promenade facing the carriageway. This leads to the formation of cracks, and following periods of rain, large puddle form on the concrete section of the promenade. The reconstruction will fix the damaged surfaces, and adapt the infrastructure to the vessels docking on the northern part of the peninsula.
Pier always open for island residents
Considering the role of Liburnska Coast as a ferry landing and an important thoroughfare in the city centre, the Port Authority Zadar were faced with a challenge. The requirements of the contractor had to be reconciled with the interest of the citizens in keeping the landing and adjacent parking spaces open throughout the period of construction. This was dealt with by dividing the Liburnska Coast into three phases, so only a third is closed to traffic at any time. Phase I, started today, will last until the end of December, and it includes the aforementioned section starting at the town bridge.
The total value of the project "Reconstruction and construction of port infrastructure City of Zadar – Peninsula" is close to €9 million. It has received support from the EU in the amount of €7.5 million from the Cohesion Fund, while approximately €1.3 million have been reserved in the State budget. Along with the reconstruction of Liburnska Coast, the money will go towards the reconstruction of 900 metres of Coast King Petar Krešimir IV and an upgrade of the existing pier on the Coast.

The quarter of me that's of Scottish descent has a little jump for joy when we manage to get a recipe in that originates north of the border. Tattie scones are a versatile dish that can be served either savoury or with butter and jam or marmalade.
Wipe all the closed cup and half the portobello mushrooms clean. Slice them 1cm thick. Peel and finely chop or crush the garlic. Trim the leek, cut in half lengthways, then thinly shred each half and wash well.
Wash the spring greens. Cut out the tough central ribs with a 'v' shape. Lay the leaves on top of each other, roll into a cylinder and finely shred. Wash the broccoli. Trim into even-sized pieces, splitting any larger stalks. Use it all, stalk, head and leaves.
Scrub the potatoes, peel and chop into 2-3cm pieces. Put them in a saucepan. Cover with water and add a couple of pinches of salt. Bring to the boil and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. While the potatoes boil, heat 2 tablespoons of oil in another saucepan.
Add the mushrooms and garlic. Fry, stirring often, for about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and keep to one side (reheat later to serve). Mix the tahini with the yoghurt. Squeeze in the juice from quarter of the lemon. Add a pinch of salt and whisk in enough cold water to make a dressing roughly the consistency of pouring cream (about 1-2 tablespoons).
Put a pan of water on to boil. Drain the potatoes once cooked and leave them in a colander for 5 minutes for the moisture to evaporate. Mash with the butter.
Add three quarters of the pot of flour, season with salt and pepper and mix together into a soft ball of dough. Use some of the remaining flour to dust your work surface and rolling pin. Roll the dough out into a rough circle (trim if needs be), about ½cm thick.
Dust the circle with some of the remaining flour and lightly prick all over with a fork, then carefully turn, dust and prick the other side.
Add all the greens (leek, broccoli, spring greens) to the pan of boiling water and cook until tender, about 3-4 minutes. Drain into a colander, then leave for a moment while you fry the scones. Heat a layer of oil in a large, nonstick frying pan.
Fry the scone on a medium heat (not too high or it will catch and burn) until golden on both sides (about 4 minutes a side). See cook's note on turning the dough. Slide the scone onto a plate, leave for 2 minutes to firm up a little, then cut into 6-8 triangles. Gently reheat the mushrooms and greens. Serve the tattie scone with the mushrooms and greens on the side, drizzled with the tahini dressing.
Use a damp piece of kitchen paper or a cloth to wipe your mushrooms clean, they turn slimy if you rinse them under the tap. Swirl your leeks well in a bowl of cold water, then lift them out and give them a little extra rinse to remove any mud or grit. To turn your potato dough easily, gently slide it onto a dinner plate, lay another plate on top, hold together and flip it over, then slide it back into the pan.

JV Ejercito to Duterte: Sack 'callous' PhilHealth OIC
May 3, 2018 5:04 PM PHT
'It is the height of callousness for the interim Philhealth president to be spending that much money,' says Senate health committee chair Joseph Victor Ejercito, in response to an audit report flagging Celestina Ma Jude De la Serna's steep travel expenses
MANILA, Philippines – The chairman of the Senate health committee on Thursday, May 3, urged President Rodrigo Duterte to sack the interim president of the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) following a government audit report questioning her excessive travels.
"I urge President Duterte to appoint a permanent PhilHealth president: someone who would be more sensitive to the fact that millions of Filipinos rely on PhilHealth for healthcare," Ejercito said in a text message.
Ejercito was reacting to a Rappler report showing how PhilHealth interim president Celestina Ma. Jude De la Serna spent at least P627,293.04 of government funds for her accommodations, flights to and from Tagbilaran, and terminal fees since appointed OIC of the agency on April 10, 2017.
It was found that De la Serna, despite being assigned to the PhilHealth central office, does not stay or rent a house in Manila. She instead stays in hotels near the office along Shaw Boulevard in Pasig City.
State auditors at PhilHealth have also asked De la Serna to explain her receipt of allowances and per diem, which would amount to almost a million pesos, including the travel expenses.
The expense comes amid a massive net income loss of PhilHealth amounting to P8.92 billion, according to its 2017 unaudited financial statement posted online. Based on PhilHealth's own numbers, this is 3,446.5% higher than the restated 2016 net loss of P251.5 million.
"It is the height of callousness for the interim Philhealth president to be spending that much money (P627K in just one year!) traveling from her province to her place of work in Manila. She also allegedly received 'irregular allowances' of about P1M," Ejercito said.
"I call upon Secretary Francisco Duque, as Philhealth Chairman, to ensure that we don't waste people's money which should pay for their healthcare of millions of poor Filipinos," he added.
Presidential spokesman Harry Roque said on Thursday he would forward the information to the Office of the President.
De la Serna is also the concurrent PhilHealth board representative for overseas Filipino workers since President Rodrigo Duterte appointed her on July 1, 2016.
She is the daughter of former Bohol governor and Tagbilaran City mayor Victor de la Serna, Duterte's professor at the San Beda Law School, also now a member of the Consultative Committee on amending the 1987 Constitution. – Rappler.com

«Modern Love» es una canción escrita y grabada en 1982 por David Bowie, la primera canción de su álbum Let's Dance. Fue publicada como tercer sencillo del álbum en 1983.

Bowie manifestó que la canción fue inspirada por Little Richard, y la canción mantiene el tema principal del álbum, de una lucha entre Dios y el hombre. Algunos comentaristas notaron las semejanzas entre "Modern Love" y el simultáneo hit de Elton John llamado "I'm Still Standing", a pesar de que ambas partes dijeron que las canciones fueron grabadas prácticamente al mismo tiempo sin conocimiento una de la otra.

Al momento en el que "Modern Love" fue publicada y editada como un sencillo, la gira de Bowie Serious Moonlight Tour estaba en marcha. La canción se había vuelto muy solicitada en la gira, y el video de Jim Yukich para la canción utilizó imágenes de Bowie y su banda cantando la canción en un concierto en Filadelfia el 20 de julio de 1983. Una versión en vivo, grabada en Montreal el 13 de julio, fue lanzada como lado B de la canción.

El sencillo alcanzó el puesto 2 en el Reino Unido, y el puesto 14 en el Billboard Hot 100 de Estados Unidos. Además de ser un elemento principal de la gira, apareció en el concierto de Bowie para el Live Aid en 1985, y en las giras posteriores Glass Spider y Sound+Vision de 1987 y 1990, respectivamente. Una versión de la canción con Tina Turner fue también presentada en un anuncio de Pepsi en 1987.

IKEA's meatballs have always been one of the main reasons customers flock to IKEA, next to its multi-functional FRAKTA bags and chic Scandinavian décor.
The Swedish lifestyle brand, however, is experimenting with something different this time. The company is swapping meat in its foods for plants and bugs. One dish named 'Neatballs', is a new iteration of its iconic meatballs that comprises mealworms and vegetables.
According to IKEA's innovation lab SPACE10, the bug-filled meatballs are part of its "fast food of the future." In a blog post on Medium, IKEA reimagines a menu that is sustainable yet delicious.
It has developed five new "future foods" including the 'Dogless Hot Dog', 'Bug Burger', 'Neatball', 'LOKAL Salad' and 'Microgreen Ice Cream'.
The 'Neatball' comes in two types: a mealworm version and root vegetables. It is served together with mashed potatoes, gravy and lingonberry sauce.
The 'Dogless Hotdog' comprises dried and glazed baby carrots, beet and berry ketchup, mustard plus turmeric cream, roasted onions and herb salad.
The 'LOKAL Salad' is made up of vegetables grown in an indoor hydroponic farming system without soil. IKEA has developed three different combinations of microgreens, sprouts and herbs: red veined sorrel, broccoli and tarragon; pink stem radish, pea sprouts and thyme; borage, red frill mustard and lemon balm. Each combination will be topped with a homemade dressing.
For dessert, the 'Microgreen Ice Cream' is made up of herbs planted in IKEA's underground garden. You can choose between fennel, coriander, basil, and mint, or select a combination of the greens.
The base of the ice cream is made using 60 grams of sugar, with additional sweetness coming from the microgreens.
While these creations are not available at IKEA yet, the Swedish brand gives you a taste of what could be offered in years to come.

Biden Sticks To Plan To Keep Chris Wray As FBI Director
Admin Scrubs Websites Of Stockpile Language That Contradicted Kushner

WASHINGTON, DC - APRIL 02: Senior White House Advisor Jared Kushner speaks with Navy Rear Adm.

EDITORS' NOTE: TPM is making our COVID-19 coverage free to all readers during this national health crisis. If you'd like to support TPM's reporters, editors and staff, the best way to do so is to become a member.
Shortly after White House senior adviser Jared Kushner said at a Thursday press briefing that the Strategic National Stockpile is not meant for states' use, language was scrubbed from and altered on government websites to reflect Kushner's claim.
"The state still has a stockpile and the notion of the federal stockpile was it's supposed to be our stockpile," Kushner said at a briefing about the coronavirus pandemic. "It's not supposed to be states' stockpiles that they then use."
"So I would just encourage you, when you have governors saying that the federal government hasn't given them what they need, I would just urge you to ask them, 'well have you looked within your state to make sure that you haven't been able to find the resources?'" he continued.
As captured by journalist Laura Bassett and noted by the Washington Post, the original description of the stockpile on the Public Health Emergency subsection of the Health and Human Services site characterized it as "the nation's largest supply of life-saving pharmaceuticals and medical supplies for use in a public health emergency severe enough to cause local supplies to run out."
It added: "When state, local, tribal, and territorial responders request federal assistance to support their response efforts, the stockpile ensures that the right medicines and supplies get to those who need them most during an emergency."
The new language, published as of Friday morning, describes it as a "short-term stopgap" and emphasized state's stores of supplies.
"Many states have products stockpiled, as well," it now reads. "The supplies, medicines, and devices for life-saving care contained in the stockpile can be used as a short-term stopgap buffer when the immediate supply of adequate amounts of these materials may not be immediately available."
These attempts to bolster Kushner's claim are stranger given that the President's son-in-law appears to be trying to make a case that the stockpile is not specifically there to fulfill states' needs — the very purpose for which it was created.
In a 2001 "Description of the US National Pharmaceutical Stockpile Program," as the stockpile was previously known, the Centers for Disease Control acknowledge that "Few U.S. state or local governments have the resources to create sufficient pharmaceutical stockpiles on their own," adding that the stockpile was created to address the need.
President Donald Trump also critiqued states' requests for help in combating the pandemic Thursday, calling them "insatiable."
Massive amounts of medical supplies, even hospitals and medical centers, are being delivered directly to states and hospitals by the Federal Government. Some have insatiable appetites & are never satisfied (politics?). Remember, we are a backup for them. The complainers should…

i just got my first-ever facial today! (keep the dirty jokes to yourself, please.) it was the most incredible, relaxing, indulgent, pampered experience i've ever had - basically an hour-long face massage (with a tiny bit of painful pore-squeezing for a few minutes in the middle - but the next half hour of glorious face massage made me forget all about that).
my face was literally glowing at the end. i let them convince me to buy some overpriced cleanser and toner by "skinceuticals." they actually did very little pressuring, but i think i just wanted to continue the feeling of indulgent beautifying pampering. and nothing says indulgent beautifying like $25 face wash.
speaking of indulgence, i've mostly been vegging out this week, trying to recover from my cold, and enjoying my last bit of freedom. yesterday me and a friend watched 10 one-hour episodes of Six Feet Under on dvd. ten hours!! we were basically in a coma by the end. it was awesome.
Are you a hypochondriac? You seem to be sick or recovering from sickness most of the time.
um, i've had ONE cold - the SAME cold - for the past week. but now i'm pretty much better. thanks for your concern!
I have been sick too. I just have a sore throat with a bunch of mucus. Otherwise I am fine, but it is kind of annoying.
which season of six feet under? I like that show. With series like that I prefer to wait for the DVD's and then watch an entire season in one or two marathon viewing sessions.
That is awsome. HBO makes the best shows on TV by far IMO.
we watched the last two episodes of season four and then the first eight episodes of season five. only four episodes left!
Illona, why do you call yourself a pest?
it's "ilona". one L. i took the name from the classic beverly cleary book "ramona the pest". i've been meaning to write a post addressing that. i'll get around to it one of these days.
omg did you go to dermalounge?!?!?! i also bought some skinceuticals products. i heart them. miss you!!!
yes - thanks for the recommendation. i remember you telling me that you let them convince you to buy some products, and i think that was part of why i let myself go for it, too. :) my skin thanks you!
hope you're having fun - i miss you too.


I've compiled a list of some great choices for any potluck you're heading to. I've categorized them so they are a little easier to navigate! Happy potluckin'!
Charcuterie Boards | Y'all know I couldn't talk about a big gathering without mentioning my favorite appetizer of all time. A good ole charcuterie (pronounced SHAR-COO-TER-EE) board can be personalized to match whatever group you're entertaining, PLUS it's super simple to throw together.
Dips make for great potluck food because they're easy to transport and can usually be made in advance.
Avocado + Goat Cheese Dip | This recipe is super fast to make, can be made ahead of time, and is perfect with pita chips or veggies. Pairs great with all kinds of themed potlucks, too (Mexican, Italian, American, etc.).
Seven Layer Dip | Another potluck favorite of mine! You can make it ahead of time, store it covered in the fridge, and grab it on your way out the door. We love ours with tortilla chips or carrot chips when we're feeling healthy.
Spinach + Artichoke Dip | Another make-ahead-wonder that I'm in love with! If you're wanting to WOW the other potluckers, make this bad boy for 'em. I promise you they will not be disappointed!
Whipped Feta + Marinated Cucumbers | The make-ahead-wonders continue. This is such a refreshing, light appetizer that's easy to whip (get it) together and please your fellow pot-luckers.
Streusel Coffee Cake | You can make this little pan of yummy the day/night before your potluck or make it bright and early that morning. The crumbly topping and almond extract send this coffee cake over the edge of delicious!
Cheesy Tuna Noodle Casserole | I mean the name says it all. I good ole casserole with some cheese and noodles is always a good idea in my book. You could assemble the casserole ahead of time, store in the fridge, then bake before heading to your potluck!
Chicken Spaghetti | This is probably the most common potluck dish I've seen at all the little gatherings I've been to. It's savory, simple, and super satisfying! There are instructions on the linked page for how to freeze/refrigerate it beforehand, too.
Red Beans and Rice | Our family favorite! It's perfect to make ahead (even freeze), then make some rice to go alongside, heat it up, and you're good to go to your potluck. You can control the spice level for those folks who aren't big on heat, too.
Slow Cooker Pulled Pork | This is a perfect main dish for a potluck because it's a crock pot wonder! Love me a good crock pot dish for potlucks. They're easy to make, keep warm, and you're not rushing to assemble something before heading out the door. I've made up to 5 of these (in different slow cookers) at one time. Super easy and always good for a crowd!
Slow Cooker Sunday Sauce | Another crock pot masterpiece! This is the ultimate Italian Sunday comfort food. Just make a little pasta to go alongside it before heading out the door, and you're good to go. This recipe makes A TON, too, so it's great for big gatherings.
Taco Casserole | potluck magic can happen with this easy little Mexican casserole. Serve it with some cilantro and green onion and you're in for a special little dish.
Chicken and Sausage Gumbo | This recipe makes a huge batch of good ole gumbo for a crowd. You can make it ahead, throw it in a slow cooker, and keep it warm until it's time to eat! Make a little rice, garnish with green onion or parsley, and you're a potluck Star.
Chili | We call this Halloween Chili in our house, but we make it all fall and winter long. It freezes like a stinkin' gem, too, so feel free to make a ton and then reheat for your potluck! I make ours in our multicooker that allows you to brown the meat IN THE SLOW COOKER so you don't have to dirty another dish. I've also started it on the stove, transferred to the slow cooker, and let it cook on low as long as I need it to.
Avocado and Tomato Salad | This fresh, simple salad is great for a summer potluck or bbq!
Baked Beans | Another great side for a burger or BBQ potluck! These are a serious crow pleaser that can be made on the stove or in a slow cooker.
Five Bean Bake | I can't tell you how many times I've made this side, and it's a hit every time! It's full of great southern flavors (including bacon… hello delicious)!
Corrales Casserole | This is a Pitcher Family recipe that's got New Mexico written all over it. Mild green chiles give this cheesy rice dish a nice little zip! We pair it with steak, ham, grilled goodies, and tons of other mains.
Loaded Baked Potato Casserole | If that name doesn't immediately make your mouth water, then I've got nothing for you. I could eat baked potatoes for every meal for the rest of the year and be a happy lady. You can assemble, refrigerate (it needs to refrigerate for at least an hour anyway to settle), then bake right before heading out the door.
Mashed Potatoes | Speaking of taters… this is the ultimate recipe. I mean the King of the Potato Kings. We've made it the past few Thanksgivings, and it's become my go-to way of making mashed potatoes. You can them ahead, refrigerate, then warm with some milk or half-and-half to get the right texture.
Taco Bell Beans | Apparently I like beans for a potluck (sorry, not sorry). These are a great addition to a Tex-Mex Themed potluck. You can't go wrong with some good ole Taco Bell flavors, 'm I right?
Cornbread | I love loading this cornbread up with some cheese and bringing it along to whatever potluck we're going to. It's great with chili, BBQ, and you can even add some jalapeños and bring it to a Tex-Mex get together.
Simple Pasta Salad | This is a serious go-to for me whenever we're brining something somewhere or hosting a big group at home. I've made it for lots of bridal and baby showers, too! It's best made a day ahead so the flavors can kind of meld together. Just grab it outta the fridge and head to your potluck!
Irish Whiskey Cake | It's boozy, sweet, and so simple. You can serve it immediately or cover it up and serve it within 3 days. Yum!
Oreo Fluff Dip (recipe below) | This one is easy to whip up and is always a huge hit for those with a sweet tooth! You can serve it with Oreos, vanilla wafers, or fruit if you're feeling fancy.
Raspberry Ricotta Cake | This one could actually serve as breakfast, too. It's a dessert that's just the perfect amount of sweet with a rich, delicate texture. It's a big favorite in our family! Serve it right away at room temperature or keep it in the fridge until you're ready to slice 'er up!
Whewie! I hope this gives y'all some great ideas for your next potluck or biggo gathering. I'd love to know your favorite dish(es) for the potluck life, too!

Q: Passing the lat, lng information to the google map script I've have an index.html file that includes a gogglemap.js file to display a map of users location. Currently I am attempting to add the proper code to the index.html to pass the lat, lng info to the js file.
Here is filler content for the index file to show what I am attempting to do:

<display user city>
  <---- this needs to display users city and has filler text to show what I am trying to accomplish.

 <----- seems like it is getting the lat/lng somehow before the index page loads and inserting this script into the index file?

Here is the js file code:

var styles = [{yourcustomstyle}]

  var mapOptions = {

    center: myLatlng,
    styles: styles,

    zoomControl: false,
    mapTypeControl: false,
    scaleControl: false,
    streetViewControl: false,
    overviewMapControl: false
  };

  var map = new google.maps.Map( document.getElementById('map'), mapOptions );

  for (var a = 0; a < 6; a++) {

    c = Math.random();
    c = c * (0 == 1E6 * c % 2 ? 1 : -1);

Aby-a-Day – 21 Februari: A box from Meg…and a little backstory (Thursday Things)
Friendship is a funny thing. You meet people every day. Some are strangers, and strangers they remain. Others become friends.
When I was a cat-crazy kid, I couldn't imagine being actual friends with a cat breeder, let alone a cat show judge. Yet here I am, 38 years after this magazine was published, with threinds who are both breeders and judges. In April 1981 I was two months shy of my sweet 16th, and I loved cats. Cats and the Beatles. No wonder that in August 1981, when I found a seal-point and white kitten, I named him Sgt. Pepper…
Usually, when you look at an old magazine, you don't read the classifieds at the back. But this old issue with an Aby on the cover…I wanted to see something.
And, lo and behold. Meg is listed as an Abyssinian breeder in Massachusetts. I never knew I'd end up in Massachusetts, let alone be friends with a breeder who had ads in a magazine when I was 15 going on 16…
But it's true. I am actually friends with a woman who has been breeding Abyssinians almost (but not quite) as long as I've been alive. And to think that she and I are very good friends! But it happened so naturally…Meg knew Sherry, and Jacoby was related to Lew and Taz…and…we clicked. That's how it is when you make a friend.
So a couple of weeks ago, Meg sent me my belated Christmas present. To be fair, though, I didn't send mine out until January.
She sent me a lot of cool things for me: Socks, a candle holder, and some CFA things…but she also sent things for the cats. One of which was this catnip shrimp. Alfred was the first to investigate the shrimp, but…
…Jake quickly took over. Jake loves firmly stuffed catnip toys.
So yeah, this shrimp was almost tailor-made for Jake. Sorry, Freddy.
Another toy she sent was a wonderful stick toy that we can use at cat shows. Izaak was all over it
Whilst Zakkie loves his mousies, he also really likes stick toys.
Not as much as Lorelai does, apparently. Because oh, look, here she is, moving faster than a camera can capture.
Rory and Zak enjoyed that stick toy so much, I think it's going to be a permanent fixture at our future cat shows!

Aby-a-Day – 13 May 2016: Ancestral Abyssinians (Friday Flashback)
Published on 13 May 2016 13 May 2016 by Talonvaki1 Comment
This week, The CFA History Project published an article about Sedgemere Peaty, one of the very first Abyssinians.
There is also an article with a fanstastic wealth of photographs about a silver Abyssinian born in 1909 named Quizero Taitou (Or Ouizero…there's some confusion over whether his name started with an O or a Q; Q makes more sense, though).
What is interesting about Quizero, though is that his father, Aluminium, also sired Ras Dashan, who sired Ras Djibute, whose granddaughter, Woodrooffe Aura was the mother of the famous (Djer-Mer's) Woodroofe Ras Seyum, from whom Jacoby, along with many modern Abyssinans, are descended.
Ras Seyum was famously featured in the November 1938 issue of National Geographic. How fun to see Jake's ancestors' photos!
(Oh and also, while looking for these historical photos, I stumbled upon this article about cat domestication and was flattered to find one of my photos used – and credited! – as an example of a show cat! It was just published on 27 April, so there's another nice surprise.
And just for fun, here is a series of photos of Jake doing something he rarely does: Pole dancing! While many cats love to scratch the sisal post on the judge's table, Jake usually prefers to post majestically. However, in his first ring at Seacoast with Gary Veach, he decided to have a little stretch. Although he does seem a bit bewildered, doesn't he?

Aby-a-Day – June 26: Selene's Firefly (Friday Flashback)
I was lucky enough to get this portrait of one of Jacoby's ancestors, Selene's Firefly, from Tessie's breeder, Kim.
She is moving, and wished to find homes for three older Abyssinian portraits. They're all wonderful – and two were of Firefly – but the oval one in particular spoke to me.
I just think it's so wonderful to own something that belongs to my Aby's past.
At Christmas last year, I was also lucky enough to get some old CATS magazines from 1958 and 1959…and look at this listing of top show cats that was published in the August 1959 issue! Firefly was the 7th Best Cat in the East that show season!

Aby-a-Day – June 4: "Lackadaisy Homage" (Cartoon Thursday)
As I mentioned a couple of cartoons ago, I am absolutely head over heels in love with Lackadaisy, a webcomic by Tracy J. Butler. Imagine the 1920's – bootleggers, gangsters, flappers…but with cats.
I love Tracy's intricate and detailed style and I could never hope to compare, but I did find this pastel illustration from a 1927 J.L. Taylor men's fashion catalog which I could mimic.
And so, here you have Jacoby and Angel as they might appear in a contemporary illustration in the Lackadaisy universe.

Aby-a-Day – April 28: "Well, dog my cats!" (Cartoon Tuesday)
You'll find in many, many books and websites about cats in general or specific to Abyssinians, that this breed is often described as being "dog-like."
I mean, there's even a YouTube video about it!
And while it is true that Abyssinians are one of the oldest breeds (going all the way back to 1860), and Abys have probably lived alongside humans for more of the breed's history than other "natural" breeds (Abys are the first breed that was based on human's desire to make a cat look a certain way rather than being based on a genetic trait like tailessness or thermo-restrictive partial albinism)…somehow, I don't think they'd find being called "dog-like" exactly complimentary.

Aby-a-Day – December 4: Meeting a Legend
Published on 4 December 2014 7 December 2014 by Talonvaki2 Comments
One of the reasons I really wanted to go to the World Show and enter the Red Show was because Wain Harding was one of the judges. (The other was because it was near Philly and I could see my sister.)
You'll have to indulge me here with a little fangirling. Wain Harding was the name in Aby breeders when I was a cat-crazy little kid first going to cat shows. I grew up in Davis, CA and Wain was based in Berkeley, CA – only 64 miles away on I-80! – so I saw his Abys a lot when we went to shows in Sacramento and San Francisco. They were probably the Abys I saw most, now that I think about it.
I'm sure I must have seen Wain at a cat show at Cal Expo or the SF County Fair Building/Hall of Flowers when I was a kid. I may have also seen him as an apprentice judge!
Wain Harding is Bastis Abyssinians. Bastis is one of those cattery names that shows up in viturally every Aby's pedigree at some point.
Jacoby has a solid Bastis backgound, starting with the legendary GC Bastis Zackariah, DM. Zackariah has 83 offspring known to ERoS, and there are probably a lot of his kittens that weren't recorded there. This one cat is probably the keystone of modern Abys. I wonder if anyone can find an Aby alive today without Zackariah's name in his or her pedigree?
Long story short, it was a pretty big deal to meet Wain Harding, no matter what Meg says 🙂
It was pretty exciting when, as Wain took Jake from the judging cage to the table, I heard him exclaim, "Wow…what great colour!" To have that be the first thing he said when he examined Jake was pretty amazing.
Needless to say, when I heard Jake's number called for Wain Harding's Shorthair Specialty Ring at the World Show on Saturday, I was thrilled.
I was so busy being excited and taking pictures, I don't remember what Wain said as he presented Jake with his rosette.
When I first got Gun-Hee and wanted to start showing, I scoured the internet for information on showing Abys and discovered this article about the perfect show Abyssinian. Several Aby-centric judges were interviewed for this Q and A, including Wain Harding. This article made an impression on me, especially Wain's comments.
Jake was Wain's 14th Best Shorthair Cat in Premiership. This was out of 40 shorthair premiers entered in the Red Show.
I know a lot of people might think, "Only 14th place?" but this was a very stiff competition. All of the Premiers were in top form at this show, and in all honesty, I got really lucky that the other Abyssinian Premiers weren't able to attend and Jake ended up being the only Aby in Premiership in the Red Show. All in all, Jake ended up in 40th place overall and he earned 39 points.*
The one thing I really wanted to do was get a photo of Wain with Jake and I. We had planned on getting one, but even though we were benched right across from his ring all weekend, I never managed to get that photo. Well…perhaps there will be a next time.
*On a side note, take a look at some of the cats' names in Premiership! There's a Manx named Jack Benny and a Maine Coon called Maine-ard G Krebbs. Two of my favourite characters! I love names like that.

#5 with a bullet
The latest CFA CatTalk magazine included an article about the CFA's Top Ten Breeds for 2012. There was some rearrangement in the rankings from 2011, interestingly. The 2011 Top Ten were:
1. Persian
2. Exotic (basically a Persian with short hair)
3. Maine Coon
4. Ragdoll
5. Sphynx
6. Siamese
7. Abyssinian
8. American Shorthair
9. Cornish
10. Birman
But THIS year, the Top Ten shifted considerably beneath the first four:
2. Exotic
5. Abyssinian (!!!)
8. British Shorthair
10. Devon Rex
After the first four breeds, there have been some major changes to this year's list! It's also interesting that the Top Ten traded Rexes and added the British Shorthair; apart from the Persian, Maine Coon and Ragdoll, the most popular breeds are predominantly shorthaired.
But the point here is, of course, the Abys gained two points! They'd dropped from #6 to #7, but now we're in the Top 5 breeds!
Naturally, all these statistics come with a caveat: these are based on registration within CFA, not the actual number of cats born or owned. But still…We're #5!
Hey, Jake's excited!

Q: Linq: How to assign local variables within linq from array I have a method that returns a simple int[2]. Both elements of the array need to each be assigned to an int r and int c local variables. I want to achieve this all within a single Linq query. Any way to do this?
This is pseudo code of what I want to achieve, but obviously it doesn't work. I don't know Linq very well and I'm trying to get better at it. Method(r,c) is the method that returns an int[2]. I want to pull each element out and assign int[0] = r and int[1] = c.
void Foo(int r, int c)
{
    Method(r,c).Select(([0],[1]) => { r = [0]; c = [1]; });
}

int[] Method(int r, int c)
{
    ///stuff///
}

A: logic:

*

*Method return int array with r and c

*create static class to make a Select method

*Select method input the int array and call Func<int[],T> and retrun T (T is Generic)

Online Test Demo Link
public class Program
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        var result = Method(1, 2).Select( (r,c) => new { r,c });
        Console.WriteLine(result);
    }
    static int[] Method(int r,int c) => new[] {r,c};
}

public static class LinqExtension
{
    public static T Select<T>(this int[] ints, Func<int,int, T> func) => func(ints[0],ints[1]);
}

or you can use Method with params int[]

public class Program
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        var value = Method(1, 2).Select((int[] arr) => new{r = arr[0],c = arr[1]});
        Console.WriteLine(value); //result : { r = 1, c = 2 }
    }

    public static int[] Method(params int[] ints)
    {
        return ints;
    }
}

public static class LinqExtension
{
    public static T Select<T>(this int[] ints,Func<int[],T> func){
        return func(ints);
    }
}

new question :

How would I use in out keywords in this context? Assuming I'm using parameters passed by value from Foo().

you can use out keyword :
public class Program
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        Method(1, 2).Select( out int r ,out int c);
        Console.WriteLine(r);
        Console.WriteLine(c);
    }
    static int[] Method(int r,int c) => new[] {r,c};
}

public static class LinqExtension
{
    public static void Select(this int[] ints, out int r, out int c)
    {
        r = ints[0];
        c = ints[1];
    }
}

KOS I quit, that's why! Yoric is listed as kill-on-sight to all Foundation operatives.
Not so Bright Yoric is directly related to both Jack Bright of the Foundation and the three Claires of the Little Sisters. He refuses to acknowledge this.
Not a snake, I swear. Yoric refuses to intentionally kill another human being or equivalent sapient or allow them to be killed, and grieves deeply when necessity makes him do so.
All Yoric has is stashed in a messenger bag. A couple changes of clothes, a few replacement fingers in case his hand breaks, a Foundation issue laptop with the tracking and monitoring 'wares removed containing files on various SCPs, and his black covered notebook.
Yoric worked for the Foundation once… Before that, he was a con man, and a damn good one. Eventually, he was head of the espionage division for MTF-O-23, a Foundation mobile task force. He fought constantly with superiors, uncovered and destroyed Counter Foundation plots, played the mole a few times, and had a hand replaced with a wooden marionette's. Then he died. Then, through the interference of an SCP, he came back. Well, kinda.
Yoric as he is just might not belong to our timeline at all, and the Foundation knows it. When they labeled him an SCP, Yoric decided it was time to get the hell out while he still could. Yoric is now an active member of the Serpent's hand, and Foundation operatives are under orders to kill him on sight.

Dave Reddin: England need to boost fitness to win World Cup
Articles / Conditioning/ England
Reddin says "you can't fail to be impressed" by Gareth Southgate
Written by Simon Austin — July 19, 2019
ENGLAND players will need to get even fitter in order to win the next World Cup, according to Head of Team Strategy and Performance Dave Reddin.
The 50-year-old, who is leaving the Football Association at the end of the year, said great strides had been made on performance ahead of last summer's World Cup in Russia, where England reached the semis.
He picked out individual profiling and "lower doses of work over a prolonged period" as significant areas of improvement by Head of Performance Bryce Cavanagh and his team before the competition.
However, Reddin admitted that "there's more work that needs to be done" in order to meet the target, set by Greg Dyke in 2013, of winning the World Cup in 2022.
"Over the course of the preceding 12 months (before the 2018 World Cup), Bryce and the team had done a lot of work around physical profiling," Reddin told the Training Ground Guru podcast.
"This was about helping players understand the areas over which they had some control and how, with some small doses of work over a more prolonged period, they could boost their capability.
"Were they in better shape than they had been 12 months previously? Yes they were. Were they at the level we think they need to be to win a World Cup? I don't think so, there's still more work there to do.
Reddin, who worked as a fitness coach with England Rugby when they won the 2003 World Cup and with Team GB at London 2012, also emphasised how impressed he had been with manager Gareth Southgate in the podcast.
"I don't think anyone who meets Gareth can fail to be impressed by him," Reddin, who has been at the FA since February 2014, said.
"Every leader has a fairly distinct way of doing things and some super strengths they bring. Gareth's is undoubtedly his ability to connect to people and develop a relationship and bring a real care and personal interest to people in his team, which is reciprocated with some incredible loyalty and dedication to working with him.
"I've been really fortunate in my career to work with some incredible leaders and he's another one."
The performance guru charted in detail what had happened at the FA during his five-and-a-half years in post. You can read his comments below:
ARRIVING AT THE FA IN 2014
Dave Reddin: We had a chairman, in Greg Dyke, who had set the goals of winning the World Cups in 2022 and 2023, which I thought was fantastic. It was eight years away and in eight years, with a plan and the right people in place, you can change the world. I've seen that elsewhere.
But coming in, it was a big governing body that had lost its way in terms of its role in elite performance. It was stuck a little bit in the mindset of 'we don't see the players very much, so there's very little we can do'.
If we take support services, I think we had 14 full-time employees across every support discipline and 10 of those were analysts who had moved over from Loughborough University. We had Ian Beasley heading up medicine, Gary Lewin as men's physio, Tracy Lewis as women's physio, John Iga doing some stuff around sport science.
We had no psychology support, no nutrition, and most of the other services were provided by consultants who would pitch up for a camp and then disappear again, we had no connection to them.
With our coaching set-up, many of the full-time national coaches wore two hats. Someone like John Peacock, who was very successful, was running the Pro Licence and the Under-17s.
One of my headlines would have been we weren't structurally set up for success in terms of investment, structure and the people who would enable you to deliver that target.
UPGRADING THE ENGLAND EXPERIENCE
We have the most financially successful league in the world and every year there are fewer England-qualified players making starts. So you have to ask what are the things in our control that can make a transformational difference to performance?
You're together 24/7 with England but only for short periods of time, for tournaments that are maybe for six, seven weeks away at a time. You don't have the opportunity to connect with players every day and influence their development.
That gave us the licence to say we need to be different to close this gap. We built the system and the people against that background.
We definitely wanted to upgrade the England experience substantially. The first thing for me was the emotional connection between players and staff and England. That's pivotal.
If you engage them deeply in the mission and vision and find out how it connects them as an individual and what they are trying to achieve, that's a huge thing.
The work we have done over the last four and five years over our identity is the evidence of that. Historically, players didn't really feel that. It was assumed they would connect themselves to an England identity, but that identity was whatever they made it.
READ MORE: Dave Reddin - Football facing 'generational challenge'
This links back to the DNA that (Technical Director) Dan (Ashworth) created, the who we are. We've also tried to do it around our practices. Take physical performance.
When I arrived, we had no philosophy of physical development, no standpoint of what we were all about. Players would come in and we would do whatever they already had been doing.
That's certainly a strategy but it's a passive strategy. You're essentially saying, 'we've got what we're given'.
If physical development development is an important part of your overall model then you have to be more than passive.
The first thing we've done is get some great people in the building, like Bryce Cavanagh, who brings huge expertise, knowledge and experience and some great people skills too.
And also to define what is our approach, what are the demands of the game at international level. That might mean we sit down with a club and they disagree with our philosophy but I'm comfortable with that.
If we have players who dream of winning World Cups with England, they have to learn how to operate between those two sometimes competing views.
Physical preparation for the World Cup is always compromised in those last periods, because it's the busiest period of the club season and the best players are likely to be involved in the latter stages of competitions.
Over the course of the preceding 12 months, Bryce and the team had done a lot of work around physical profiling, which was about helping players understand the areas over which they had some control and how, with some small doses of work over a more prolonged period, they could boost their capability.
It's different for every player. With the profiling, we try and identify what each individual needs to do to work on their strengths and what might be holding them back. What is the work they can do more chronically - lower doses over a more prolonged period - that can build that capability?
There was also the media strategy, which is part of performance we feel. Providing a window into how these people are is an incredibly powerful way of enabling people to connect with them.
It's difficult for the public to connect with people they can't identify with.
RELATIONSHIP WITH THE CLUBS
I would hope there is a general respect for what we are doing (from the clubs) if not always entirely in agreement with what we are doing, but I'm comfortable with that.
If you can imagine a divorced couple fighting over what the children are going to do on the weekend they don't have them, that could describe the relationship at times.
At its best, the couple mutually agrees what's good and respect each other enough to trust that the children's best interests are at heart. At its worst, mum might say, 'look, I don't want them to go rock climbing with you.' Dad says, 'I hear you, but it's my weekend and they're going bloody rock climbing.'
Sometimes rock climbing is the right thing to do. I'm sure dad doesn't want them to hurt themselves and of course we don't with the players, but respect is what we are looking for, more than agreement.
I don't think anyone who meets Gareth can fail to be impressed by him. Every leader has a fairly distinct way of doing things and some super strengths they bring. Gareth's is undoubtedly his ability to connect to people and develop a relationship and bring a real care and personal interest to people in his team, which is reciprocated with some incredible loyalty and dedication to working with him.
I've been really fortunate in my career to work with some incredible leaders and Gareth is another one.
He is certainly very open-minded and has a brilliant learning mindset himself. He's someone who travels and goes to see lots of different people for ideas all the time and encourages his team to think outside the box and challenge him and what we're doing to try and improve.
That's the sort of leader most people would want to work with. He's not someone who thinks he has all the answers, but is also not afraid to lead in a more traditional way when he thinks he needs to.

After updating to 1.6.19.0 (Windows, running Windows 8.1 64bit), "stage lines" and "stage hunk" have again disappeared.
Is there any way to downgrade (without losing settings)? I tried an older installer but it did not proceed after recognizing the newer installed version.
@Dan Glasser You probably have to uninstall the current version before installing an older one.
@DS Morse Support requests are private. If support creates a bug report in JIRA as a result of your ticket (or directs you to an existing bug report), please post a link back here as an answer. You may want to add a link to this question to your support request so they can answer publicly if they want to.
Thanks @Seth. I posted the tickets I found as an answer. I'm back up and running now.
Check for Updates in Help tab. Now is fixed in v1.6.20.0.
I was hoping this would also fix the fact that you can no longer resize the panes for file list and diff view.
This was on the "File Status" tab. I re-sized the repository pane and that fixed whatever was preventing me from adjusting the slider between the file list and the diff panel.
