Q: Group of order $pq$ with $p
If $p<q$ are primes and $G$ is a group of order $pq$, then $G$ has exactly $q-1$ elements of order $q$.
My attempt was:
Use Sylow theorem to show that $G$ has only one subgroup of order $q$, so it's cyclic and then generated by let's call $x$. Now the order of $\langle x\rangle$ is $q$, so it has $q$ elements but the unit is in it and $order(e)=1$ so it has a total of $q-1$ elements, thus G has only $q-1$ elements.
Did i go wrong by assuming $G$ has only that many of elements of order $q$ by looking only at the fact that $p$ and $q$ are primes?

A: Summarizing the comments: your idea is fine but you should explain why every nonidentity element of $\langle x \rangle$ has order $q$, and you should also explain why $G$ has no other elements of $q$ besides the ones in $\langle x \rangle$.
Here is an argument which addresses these questions.
First, as you noted, we can use the Sylow theorems to deduce that $G$ has a unique subgroup of order $q$. This is because the number of $q$-Sylow subgroups, call it $n_q$, must divide $p$ and must equal to $1$ modulo $q$. This forces $n_q = 1$.
Let's call the unique $q$-Sylow subgroup $Q$. If $x \in Q$ then the order of $x$ must divide $q$ (Lagrange's theorem). Since $q$ is prime, this means that $x$ has order $1$ or $q$. Therefore every nonidentity element of $Q$ has order $q$. This means that $Q$ contains $q-1$ elements of order $q$.
Can $G$ contain any other elements of order $q$? If $x \in G$ has order $q$, then $\langle x \rangle$ is a subgroup of order $q$. But $Q$ is the unique subgroup of order $q$, so $\langle x \rangle = Q$, and in particular, $x \in Q$, so $x$ is one of the $q-1$ elements we already counted.
We conclude that $G$ has exactly $q-1$ elements of order $q$.

Q: How to "PUT" json data back to chef server I am able to get response from server using "GET" in chrome rest client:
"https:xxxx/nodes/"
But I cannot "PUT" the same thing back to the same url.
It says server error.

A: The Chef Server API is heavily documented at the link I provided. It is mostly RESTful, but there are certain exceptions. The Chef Server is very particular about the various headers and syntaxes you need in the request, especially for things that mutate state.

A: First of all your server must expect such activity or in other words implement Json receiving. You need to know what resource name is for it. Probably you will need to perform POST request. For post request you need to know what resource you are accessing (my_form.aspx for example). Keeping this in mind you also need to have Content-Type: application/json. The json data actually goes as a post request body.

State claims it has a strong case against indicted terror suspects
All three of the men arrested by Norwegian police in the summer of 2010 on charges of planning a terrorist act have been indicted for exactly that. Mikael Davud, David Jakobsen and Shawan Sadek Saeed Bujak face 12 years in prison, and prosecutor Geir Evanger thinks the state has a strong case.
"Small pieces are steadily coming together that strengthen the case against the three," Evanger told Norwegian Broadcasting (NRK) Tuesday afternoon. The indictments were handed down on Monday.
Evanger said the Norwegian police have cooperated closely with foreign police and security forces. "We have now built up a broad body of evidence and the investigation is still going on," Evanger said. "The suspects' own statements and confessions play a central role. In addition we've conducted surveillance, tapped telephone conversations, followed e-mail correspondence and examined computer equipment."
Evanger told NRK that investigations have been carried out in the US and England as well. "With all the pieces put together it's beyond a reasonable doubt that they have acted as the indictment describes," he claimed.
'Surprised'
Davud and Bujak already have been held in custody for more than a year while Jakobsen was released last October but remained charged. His defense attorney said Jakobsen, originally from Uzbekistan, was surprised that he also was indicted, but told Norwegian Broadcasting (NRK) that he looked forward to "illuminate the realities" in the case.
Jakobsen and Davud were arrested in Oslo while Bujak was arrested while on an alleged family holiday in Germany. Bujak, originally from Iraq, reportedly has confessed to planning a terrorist attack, identifying the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten as the target. The newspaper infuriated many Muslims when it published caricatures of the prophet Muhammed in 2005.
Davud had said, under separate questioning, that the trio planned to bomb China's embassy in Oslo. He was angry with the Chinese for oppression suffered by his Uighur family in northwest China, but police later rejected his confession to the alleged embassy plans, because Davud couldn't tell them where the embassy was located in Oslo.
Bomb-building charges and Danish targets
Now Norway's police intelligence unit PST believes the three planned to build a powerful bomb and that the group had links to al-Qaeda. An international probe also has looked into links between the three men and terror suspects in the UK and US.
The Norwegian indictment claims the three suspects' target was both Jyllands-Posten and Danish political cartoonist Kurt Westergaard. In addition to their alleged efforts to build a bomb, the men are accused of having tried to acquire firearms as well.
Davud's defense attorney, Karl Konow Rieber-Mohn said he was surprised the authorities were concentrating on the Danish targets. "PST has always talked about terror in Norway," Rieber-Mohn told NRK. "Now they're moving completely away from that, putting everything into the Danish track."
The trial is due to start October 31.

APW3++ 10 PCIE port connector.
APW3++ Special for L3+ 18 PCIE port connector.
The differences between this two model is the number of PCIE connector, the rest all the same.
The recommend input voltage is 220 V, using anything beyond 380 V will damage the PSU.
134 - 185 A max.
Refer to the picture below, there are three points marked "-","ON" and "+".
Gently remove the resistor (if there is) on the signal point "-" and "ON". After removing, lead the wire to each point (in total you would need two wires), connect the wire to your remote device and the PSU can be switched on or off remotely.
No electricity is allowed to run through the wire which connects "-" and "ON" signal; or else it will damage the PSU.
When the two signal cables are connected, the power is on. When disconnected, the power will be switched off.
The two signal wires must connect to the different ends of the device. Do not connect to the same ends; otherwise the signal will stay connected all the time.


Closeness and loneliness and connection are, well…complicated.
Maybe you're tough to be close to. That happens.
It especially happens when we've had experiences in our lives that have programmed us with beliefs about what it means to be close to other people.
Many of us, for whatever reason, grow up with programming about closeness to other people that discourages us from being close to them, or even attempting to be close to them.
Some of us have come to believe that allowing ourselves to be close to other people only opens ourselves up for the pain of mockery and eventual betrayal.
Some of us have developed the belief that truly "strong" people need to live a lonely, isolated existence, like "leaders" and "geniuses" are sometimes reputed to.
Still others have simply had so many painful, traumatic experiences in their lives that they feel the have to live lonely, isolated lives simply to function.
Whatever the reason, a large subset of people find themselves in adulthood having developed a variety of psychological and behavioral defenses against human closeness that they then have very mixed feelings about.
On the one hand, these defenses can keep us feeling "safe," at least relatively. Keeping other people at arm's length lets us in some ways feel like we're more in charge of our lives, our environments, our schedule, and our energy. It helps us feel more in control in some ways.
On the other hand, however, most people also experience an innate, hard-wired drive to connect with others. The continued frustration of this drive can leave people feeling lonely and lost, and lead some people to assume that they're somehow defective or damaged because they struggle to make and keep close connections.
To be very clear: it's normal to both crave and kind of fear making connections with other people. We don't need to beat ourselves up for either impulse.
There isn't, actually, any "right" or objectively "healthy" level of human connectedness.
The level of connection to other human beings that is right for you, may not be right for someone else. Your mileage regarding how much close connection you need or want in your life will absolutely vary when compared to others.
Coming to peace and finding balance with our need for and fear of connectedness starts, as with most important concepts in personal development, with radical self-acceptance and self-compassion.
We need to radically accept that we have exactly the craving for connectedness, and exactly the level of anxiety about connectedness, as we have. We need to steadfastly refuse to pathologize what we experience as natural impulses.
It may be the case that you need and crave a greater degree of connectedness.
It may be the case that you need and crave a greater degree of autonomy or space.
Framing our obstacles to getting our needs met as problems to be solved— and problems that CAN be solved— opens us up to entirely new dimensions of possibility.
Anxiety about talking to new people (or even NOT-new people!) is a problem to be solved. No more, no less.
Anxiety about allowing others to get too close or too enmeshed with us is a problem to be solved. No more, no less.
We know how to go about solving the problem of anxiety.
We know how to go about solving the problems presented by complicated boundaries.
And— because it wouldn't be a Dr. Glenn Doyle blog without sounding like a broken record in this respect— most problem-solving in these domains comes back to developing and practicing basic skills: self-acceptance, self-talk, reality testing, and time and resource management. Self-care.
Be real with yourself about your own relationship with the very idea of connection.
Be real with yourself about the obstacles that exist, both inside and outside yourself, to experiencing the level of connectedness you'd prefer.
Be honest and compassionate with yourself— at all times.
You deserve honesty and compassion at all times…especially from yourself.
You know it's gonna be all right.
A messy day doesn't equal a messy life.

TITLE: Sabyasachi X Selfridges
Sabyasachi X Selfridges will revolutionize the way in which premium Indian womenswear can be purchased by the British Indian Consumer.
The collaboration meets the customers desire to find a new level of luxury within the Indian Fashion Industry in Britain.
The dissertation focused on researching the feasibility of launching a premium Indian womenswear brand within the well-established British Luxury market. From research collated it was evident that there was a large Indian population in Britain, therefore, at an early stage of this study it was identifiable that there would be a proposed venture that could be capitalised on by the British Indian consumer. The extended family households, increase in Indian working-women and the overall net wealth was a clear indicator to the availability of disposable income within the Indian community.
Through a mixed-method approach, it was apparent that the British Indian woman was keen to showcase her status and wealth through her clothing when attending functions. Primary research found that there was a shift in Indian women moving towards purchasing a branded Indian garments.
A business plan for Sabyasachi to launch concessions in Selfridges was developed. The collaboration links the most extraordinary department store in the world with one of the most sort after designers in India at the moment. The strength of both businesses combined presents promising financial success. The collaboration hold an exclusive 'Create Your Look' range which opens the fashion style to a wider market as it allows customers to purchase individual elements of a outfit. Additionally, a marketing and sales tool of the interactive customisation table, brings a digital element to the concept – a tool which has not yet been utilised in the British Indian fashion market.

A man is in custody after a woman was stabbed to death during a violent attack in Sydney's west this morning.
Police were called to a home on Harrow Rd, Berala, just before 10am following reports of a stabbing.
When officers arrived they found a 57-year-old woman suffering multiple stab wounds.

She was treated by paramedics but was unable to be saved and died at the scene.
The attack is believed to be domestic-related.
A 62-year-old man, believed to be her husband has been arrested and is expected to be charged later today.
It is understood the couple didn't live at the home but they were looking after young children at the time of the attack, Seven reported.

There are concerns the children, who are thought to be the couple's grandkids, may have witnessed the incident.
"If (the children) did witness it, that's just a horrible thing to have happened," Acting Inspector Chris Laird told reporters.
"The tragic consequences today show how serious domestic violence is in our community and how police are very committed to ensure that the perpetrators are brought to justice."
Police have established a crime scene and a report will be prepared for the Coroner.

We've talked about this before, but it's worth repeating: now that you can take notes in any title in Accordance (forthcoming for Accordance Mobile), Accordance is a great tool for group Bible study.
I believe this will be even more beneficial once the notes-everywhere feature is available for Accordance Mobile, since a tablet in a group setting might be more accommodating than a laptop; but Windows tablets would certainly work fine right now.
Not intended to be. That feature is a priority for Accordance Mobile and will eventually be here, but I have no date.
I created the screenshot for social media promotion today, and as I reflected on it, I was just struck by how awesome the whole thing is. So I shared it here.
That is a pretty sweet Workspace.
I've been wondering if this could be applied to language workbooks to answer exercises. I think it could. I prefer long hand myself but the question of workbooks in Acc. has come up before.
I agree, but I don't mean that in a bragging sense. I was just looking at the screen and the more I thought about it, the more awesome I thought it was. I've been using Accordance for 17 years and even work for the company now, but I still get excited about this stuff.
Absolutely! Check out my post, "Answering Grammar Exercises in Accordance" that I wrote earlier this summer.


As automation transforms our economy, we can take steps to ease the pain for those most affected.
History and economic theory suggest that anxiety about technological unemployment can be misplaced.
Technological change is likely to fuel productivity gains and income growth, boosting demand for labour.
About 15% of the global workforce, or 400 million workers, could be displaced between now and 2030 and need to change occupations.
By Laura Tyson and Susan Lund.
Intelligent machines are transforming the way we produce, work, learn and live throughout the world. Almost every aspect of our economies will be radically altered.
Major logistics companies and individual drivers are using new technologies to optimise their route planning. Companies like BMW and Tesla have already released self-driving features in their automobiles, which are produced with the help of sophisticated robots. The Associated Press is using artificial intelligence to help write news stories. 3D printers are being used to produce replacement parts – for both machines and humans. AT&T, in collaboration with Udacity, is offering online "nanodegrees" in data analytics. Drones are delivering health supplies to remote locations in poor countries.
These marvellous new technologies promise higher productivity, greater efficiency, and more safety, flexibility, and convenience. But they are also stoking fears about their effects on jobs, skills, and wages. Feeding these fears is a recent study by the University of Oxford's Carl Frey and Michael Osborne, and another by the McKinsey Global Institute (MGI), which find that large shares of employment in both developing and developed countries could technically be automated. History and economic theory, however, suggest that anxieties about technological unemployment, a term coined by John Maynard Keynes nearly a century ago, are misplaced.
In the future, as in the past, technological change is likely to fuel productivity gains and income growth, boosting demand for labour. Add to that lower prices and rising quality, and demand for goods and services will also increase. Many of the jobs created cannot even be imagined today, just as few people a century ago could have anticipated that automobiles would give rise to drive-through restaurants and roadside motels.
The good news is that as a result of projected increases in demand for goods and services – driven primarily by rising incomes, the growing health-care needs of ageing populations, and investment in infrastructure, energy efficiency, and renewables – enough new jobs are likely to be created to offset job losses. But the new jobs will differ mightily from the jobs displaced by automation, imposing painful transition costs on workers, businesses, and communities.
Depending on the pace of automation, 75–375 million workers, or 3–14% of the global workforce, will need to change occupational categories by 2030. In the United States and other developed economies where automation is likely to occur more rapidly, 9–32% of the workforce may need to change occupational categories and the skills associated with them.
In these countries, jobs in major occupational categories like production and office support, and jobs requiring a high school education or less, are likely to decline, while jobs in occupational categories like health and care provision, education, construction and management and jobs requiring a college or advanced degree, will increase.
According to one recent survey, the majority of Americans are concerned that automation will increase income inequality. Their concern appears warranted. As many middle-wage occupations succumb to automation, income polarisation in the US and other developed countries is likely to continue. If workers displaced by automation are unable to find new jobs quickly, frictional unemployment will rise, putting downward pressure on wages.
Advises that all business processes need to be transformed to accommodate artificial intelligence. Describes how companies can use human+machine hybrid solutions to get ahead in innovation and productivity. Includes a leader's guide to running an AI-fuelled business.
So, what can be done to speed and ease the occupational transitions that automation will compel? For starters, fiscal and monetary policies to sustain full-employment levels of aggregate demand are critical. Policies to promote investment in infrastructure, housing, alternative energy and care for the young and the ageing can boost economic competitiveness and inclusive growth, while creating millions of jobs in occupations likely to be augmented, rather than displaced, by automation.
A second response must be a dramatic expansion and redesign of workforce training programs. Over the past two decades, government outlays for skills training and labour-market adjustment have fallen in most OECD countries. That has been compounded in the US by a sizeable decline in business spending on training as well.
Instead, nanodegrees and stackable credentials are likely to gain in importance. German-style apprenticeships combining classroom work and practical work, and enabling participants to earn a salary while learning, could be important solutions even for middle-aged displaced workers. Collaboration between companies and educational institutions, as AT&T (on whose board one of the authors serves), Starbucks and other firms are showing, can provide workers with the new or enhanced skills that are increasingly needed.
Tax and other incentives to encourage more business investment in workforce training, especially by small and medium-size companies, may be necessary. Governments will also need to offer universal and portable social benefits like health care, child care and retirement security, as well as transition support, to workers who are forced to change jobs, occupations and employers frequently. Sweden's job-security councils, run by the private sector and funded by a payroll tax on companies, provide displaced workers with a comprehensive suite of income support, training, coaching, and assessment with caseworkers.
What will the future of work look like? Here are five ways to plan ahead.

Demystifying the ECU Tune | Fabspeed Motorsport
Fabspeed Motorsport USA enjoys a long-standing history and reputation of designing and manufacturing the world's best exotic car performance products. This includes our Engine Control Unit (ECU) performance modification products under the brand XperTune™ by Fabspeed.
This short paper explains the various ECU enhancements that Fabspeed provides to our customers, and some of the technical details that both our customers and Certified Performance Partners are often curious about.
So what is an ECU?
(for the experts, please forgive the oversimplification) Engine Control Units or Modules, even Engine Computers as they're sometimes referred to, can be thought of as the conductor of a large orchestra, where the orchestra, in this case, is your vehicle.
In a musical orchestra, the conductor is constantly listening to, interpreting and guiding the various instruments to play their part of the score - at her command - on tempo, on the beat, and at the correct volume. The conductor also makes unnoticeable behind-the-scenes real-time adjustments to compensate for variations in say, background noise, and commands immediate changes to cover for errors such as a broken string on an instrument or a lost pick.
Without the oversight of the conductor, the musical performance would not be optimal.
Without the ECU, the performance of the vehicle would not be optimal.
The ECU is the conductor of the car's engine system, and often many other subsystems of the vehicle such as transmission, driving mode and security. The ECU "listens" to many engine and environmental sensors. Like the many instruments found in the orchestra, and based on what the ECU hears or senses, it will command changes to various actuators on the engine itself.
For instance, the ECU senses oxygen content in the exhaust by various sensors, and it knows that a certain percentage of oxygen is ideal for best emissions and best performance. Should the ECU see a variation in what it expects to see as a percentage of oxygen, it will use those data to command an adjustment, of say the fuel rate entering the engine.
Early ECUs (1990's) made it possible to increase MPG and reduce emissions, but they had a rather limited range of other functions. Later version ECUs collected data from even more sensors and could compute optimal fuel/air ratios, electronically control turbo boost, adjust ignition timing in millisecond intervals, and in some cases, command transmission shift actions.
Today's ECUs are complex to the point that most everything about the drivability of the car, including its performance characteristics and safety features, is part of the dataset.
Since the ECU was developed, performance companies like Fabspeed engineered ways to alter the ECU's internal computer programming to make vehicles perform better. Vehicle manufacturers generally do not appreciate when others modify their ECUs, but it's a common practice that yields excellent, low investment results.
What is an ECU Tune?
For decades vehicle manufacturers relied solely on hardware design, like bore and stroke, variable cams, and turbochargers when they wanted to make more performance out of a core engine block. It was expensive for R&D and it was slow to produce new products. Today, with all of the technology like new metallurgy for smaller stronger parts, unique variable compression ratio systems, high temperature continuously adjustable vane turbochargers and the myriad other awesome advances, the software in the ECU is now the index and key to model performance and option upgrades.
Here's an example: Instead of changing out the entire engine to make more power as an upgrade, vehicle manufacturers are simply changing the programming in the ECU from one model to the next. They often de-tune the engine via the ECU to have it make less power than it otherwise would and vice versa to make more power … while charging the customer large amounts for something as simple as flipping a switch. Not only is this cost-effective for them, but it is super easy.
At Fabspeed, we can do almost exactly the same thing - modify the ECU programming - by installing on the ECU a new "tune" of recalibrated software.
Our XperTune™ brand of ECU programming enhancements covers both older model vehicles and the latest in exotic cars. Fabspeed XperTunes, coupled with our free-flowing exhaust and intake systems, can unleash tremendous power gains, especially in turbocharged engines.
Before I explain the various tuning methods, a word of caution is in order. Adding more power to a car's engine does have some risk. Depending on the condition of the engine, if old or poorly maintained, adding an aggressive tune could cause failure.
Even if the engine is solid, a performance tune places additional stressors on the transmission and drive system, which also may fail. On vehicles with a manufacturer's warranty in place, altering the stock ECU tune may void portions of the manufacturer's warranty.
Are all ECU tunes the same?
Short and sweet - No. At Fabspeed we produce tunes that have proven to be consistently reliable and exhilarating. While some tuning firms will go for broke and try to squeeze every last bit of horsepower out of the engine, we feel that's short-sighted and dangerous.
It is not all about maximum numbers, it's about where you improve the numbers in the car's drivability profile.
Fabspeed produces tunes that increase both horsepower and torque and at the same time make the car quicker, more even-keeled, and smoother to drive or race. We'd rather see a healthy peak of torque that grows steadily across the drivability profile rather than a sudden and essentially unusable spike of horsepower just to get "the number." Those bucking, jerky tunes that may produce a slightly higher peak HP always sacrifice reliability and drivability and it's advisable to stay far away from those brands.
It pays to research how the ECU will affect your car, and what you need to do, if anything, to use the tune reliability and safely. For instance, many ECU tunes will require that you run 93 "Pump" octane (98 RON) rated fuel or you may cause damage to the engine due to a phenomenon called detonation.
Briefly, the octane rating of fuel is a specification of how much that fuel can be tightly compressed before it ignites on its own. Fuel igniting in the cylinder on its own is a bad thing when it comes to engines. Higher compression engines and most turbo/supercharged engines will require higher octane fuel or they will audibly ping and knock; an event called detonation. In older less sound-proofed cars, if you hear these sounds as you accelerate hard, it means that the fuel is igniting unevenly in the cylinder(s) after the spark plug fires. This uneven ignition of the flame front causes pockets of gas to violently explode which creates great pressures that literally rattle the piston in the cylinder bore to the point you can audibly hear it. Using a higher octane fuel is a cure for simple organic detonation.
Is detonation different from pre-ignition? Oh ya - we'll save that for another BLOG.
If you add an ECU tune to make more power from these engines, you may need to always buy higher octane fuel to avoid unintentional detonation damage. Modern cars have sensors that detect detonation and will de-tune the performance of the vehicle in real-time to protect itself from damage. You won't even notice it's happening, just like you didn't notice the conductor of the orchestra covering for the cello string that she just saw fail.
XperTune™ by Fabspeed - the modern way to increase performance.
Fabspeed's professional and racing ECU tunes - XperTune™ - comes in a number of formats depending on the vehicle and the intent of the tune. What I mean by intent is what the tune is expected to deliver.
Are you looking for a noticeable increase in the performance of your daily driver and do not want to add any hardware, such as exhaust or intake modification? We have an XperTune for that.
You want a full high-performance system installed to make your street legal supercar as badass as it can be? Yes, we have an XperTune for that.
Just leased a new sports car? Want to kick it up a notch, but go back to stock with zero hassles when you turn it back in? Indeed, we have an XperTune for that.
And last but not least ...Do you want a track car with a Fabspeed racing exhaust system and free-flowing cold-air intake with Methanol injection? Oh ya, do we have an XperTune for that too!
Each of those above intents may have different tune formats. A tuning format is simply how you apply the new software tune file to your specific vehicle's ECU. There are three ways:
Fabspeed's XperTune ECU Bench Flash
Fabspeed's XperTune Do-it-yourself Hand-held Programmer
Fabspeed's XperTune Performance Plug
Some cars may have all three options available, while others may only have one.
Each of the formats above have unique characteristics, varying degrees of installation time, and different performance boundaries. The good news is that our factory experts can walk you through the best option for your own unique needs.
For the curious, here's a quick summary of each:
ECU Bench Flash tunes require that you send to us your car's ECU computer. When we receive the ECU we will add the software upgrades at our tuning facility using the latest technology and best practices. It may take as long as 24 hours plus shipping time to get the ECU back you and during that time your car is undrivable. This is the only option for some vehicles and may be the preferred option for highly modified vehicles because our tuning team can manipulate almost every parameter in the software. To return to a stock OEM tune, you must send the ECU back to us for reloading.
Do-it-yourself Hand-held Programmer is a user friendly device that you easily connect to your car's OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) port. Once connected, the programmer will read data from your unique serialized ECU and store it on the programmer. You simply send us that data file via email, and we will send you an XperTune file back within 24-48 hours. Once you get the XperTune email, simply attach the programmer to the OBD port and upload your new performance tune - easy as pie! You keep the programmer forever, and if you ever wish to revert back to the stock OEM tune, you simply attach the programmer and load that software.
Performance Plug is not available for every car, and depending on the intent, even if it was available it may not be the best choice. The Performance Plug simply plugs into the connector that plugs into your ECU - that's it, you're tuned! The Performance Plug analyzes and then alters the signals from the sensors that enter the ECU. By altering (or tricking) the ECU, more power can be made by fooling the system into believing it wasn't doing its job in the first place. Cool idea that works pretty well, but there are limitations; we cannot directly influence many options in the ECU because we do not modify the actual ECU software. This choice is ideal for those who lease a sports car and do not want to add any other modifications, or your intent is to have a modest performance increase. To go back to stock, simply remove the Performance Plug and you're done.
How do I learn more?
Easy, just call us! Fabspeed Motorsport USA has been and remains fully committed to increasing the performance and pleasure you get from your supercar.

Q: Testing custom exception middleware The exception middleware is working, but I would like to write some unit tests for it.
This is what I have:
public async Task InvokeAsync(HttpContext httpContext)
{
    try
    {
        await _next(httpContext);
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        await HandleExceptionAsync(httpContext, ex);
    }
}

private static async Task HandleExceptionAsync(HttpContext httpContext, Exception exception)
{
    httpContext.Response.ContentType = "application/json";

    httpContext.Response.StatusCode = exception switch
    {
        KeyNotFoundException => StatusCodes.Status404NotFound,
        ItemNotFoundException => StatusCodes.Status404NotFound,
        MyItemNotFoundException => StatusCodes.Status404NotFound,
        ItemDetailNotFoundException => StatusCodes.Status404NotFound,
        ItemIsExpiredException => StatusCodes.Status422UnprocessableEntity,
        _ => StatusCodes.Status500InternalServerError
    };

    await httpContext.Response.WriteAsync(JsonSerializer.Serialize(exception.Message));
}

This is what I'm trying to do in my tests :
// Arrange
var middleware = new ExceptionMiddleware((innerHttpContext) =>
{
    throw new KeyNotFoundException("Test", "Test");
});

var context = new DefaultHttpContext();
context.Response.Body = new MemoryStream();

// Act
await middleware.InvokeAsync(context);

context.Response.Body.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
var reader = new StreamReader(context.Response.Body);
var streamText = reader.ReadToEnd();
//var objResponse = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<CustomErrorResponse>(streamText);

var sut = new MyController(_unitOfWorkStub.Object, _myServiceStub.Object);

var result = await sut.MyMethodAsync(It.IsAny<string>(), It.IsAny<MyRequest>()) as ObjectResult;

It seems to work but do I need to tests this separately or can I test this in my 'Controller' test?
I want to test that my controller returns the correct status code and message.

Where's me culture? It's in Cork! | Something Odd!
Where's me culture? It's in Cork!
Cork City is the European Capital of Culture 2005 and despite a small budget available to the organisers they're putting on a bit of a show this year!
We believe that responsibility for celebrating Cork as a cultural city is neither the sole preserve nor the sole responsibility of the Cork 2005 office. Cultural expression is the responsibility of all.
We believe that imagination and energy and a willingness to help each other is more important than a large budget.
We believe in the cultural importance of having fun.
A walk has been organised for this weekend, and more details are available on their site. I won't be there, but enjoy it, the Line is a lovely walk and should be fun!
If you have photographs of Cork, you might be interested in Cork Space.com. It's a project that, "seeks to provide a space in which the urban environment of Cork can be explored, questioned and discussed through the use of images, audio recordings and moving images." Expect to find my images up there as soon as I get around to uploading them!
Cork political culture during the War of Independence has been under attack recently as being based on sectarianism.
This needs to be countered and we are organising the meeting below to help do this. Please publicise in any way possible.


Those campaigning for abortion purposely use emotive language, blurring the key ethical distinctions to push the case for legalised abortion.
Words like "abortion" and phrases like "termination of pregnancy" are routinely used in quite different ways in different contexts.
Regarding the phrase, "termination of pregnancy", it is important to remember that all pregnancies are terminated. Most of them terminate with the birth of a normal healthy baby. Some unborn babies dies as an unavoidable and unintended result of some life-saving treatment of the mother.
Furthermore, some babies dies, in spite of the best efforts of all involved, as a result of being born too early; such births may occur spontaneously or may be induced in cases where it represents the only, albeit very low, chance of survival.
Clearly then, there is a real ethical distinction between necessary medical interventions in pregnancy where the baby may be exposed to some risks and induced abortion where the life of the baby is directly and intentionally targeted.


2. Make 2012 a banner year for procurement. Our 2012 Prediction: Procurement will finally become a business driver in 2012 not just a cost cutter. Thankfully for procurement, cutting costs is a little bit more attainable than cutting the waistline. Here are our top resolutions for procurement in 2012 .
3. Resolution #1: Start embracing non-compliance A lack of compliance means more to procurement thanincreased costs it highlights areas for improvement. Is your technology user-friendly? Are other departments buying off contract because your process is too complex? Are the suppliers meeting everyones needs? Stop expecting your marketing, production and ITcolleagues to simply get it. Non-compliance is an opportunity for improvement, notjust a hindrance.
4. Resolution #2: Put the supplier at the heart ofyour process and technology If your suppliers fail, you fail too no matter how much youve perfected your process or technology. Your resolution for 2012: Treat and protect your suppliers as your competitive advantage. Take a full-circle approach to supplier relationships: understand the health of your supply base properly assess risks move towards collaborative supplier partnerships.
5. Resolution #3: Start using market-informedsourcing or boost your adoption. Your tried and true sourcing approach may be leaving cost savings unturned. To develop better partnerships with suppliers, move away from simply pushing our strictly defined tender requirements. Market-Informed Sourcing embraces a more collaborative approach to procurement and is proven to boost category savings up to 30 per cent, but adoption is still extremely low.

The Capitol building in Sacramento, Calif. on April 29, 2019. (Daniel Holl/The Epoch Times)
California Lawmakers Want to Mandate Teachers to Affirm LGBTQ Identities
By Cynthia Cai
June 16, 2019 Updated: June 16, 2019
SACRAMENTO—California Assemblymember Todd Gloria (D-San Diego) recently introduced a new bill that would require teachers to support and affirm the LGBTQ identities of their students.
Introduced in February, Assembly Bill 493 seeks to mandate that all teachers of pupils in grades 7 to 12 to go through annual training to learn how to better serve their LGBTQ students.
According to the bill's author Assemblymember Gloria California needs AB 493 to address the high rates of harassment reported by LGBTQ identifying students.
However, this bill has received concern from members of the community. Greg Burt, director of Capitol Engagement at California Family Council, explained in an interview that "we are acknowledging that bullying and harassment for kids who identify as transgender is a real issue, we are just disagreeing with the solution."
In a press release, California Family Council President Jonathan Keller said, "Every person is created in the image of God and should be treated with dignity and respect. This includes those who identify as LGBTQ as well as those with sincerely held religious beliefs."
"AB 493 would unconstitutionally force every teacher and student to reject biological reality about sexuality and gender, and instead mandate the views of LGBTQ political activists as the only acceptable opinion. Sadly, Mr. Gloria is attempting to fight bullying by becoming a bully himself," Keller continued.
While the bill aims to increase inclusivity for students who may identify as LGBTQ, the bill removes the rights and freedom of the teachers.
In a situation where a student requests to be addressed as a girl when the student is boy, but the teacher holds a binary view of gender, the question is then which belief should the teacher uphold.
Burt expressed that "If you are then forcing a teacher to deny their own personal beliefs and adhere to the students' personal beliefs. We think that's going to be an issue of violation of free speech."
If passed, this bill will mandate regular training and tests for school teachers. Schools will also be required to provide online training at least once every two years, according to the bill text.
While AB 493 does not detail the topics to be covered in the mandated training, existing LGBTQ training programs in California schools are inviting outside groups such as Queerly Elementary to provide training and resources to teachers.
Regardless of the push from AB 493, some California schools are already implementing LGBTQ training and curriculums for their teachers.
Rocklin Academy recently approved of a LGBTQ base history and social studies curriculum for kindergarten through 5th grade students. Students will be taught about the gender identities and preferences of historical figures.
According to the San Diego School District website, the district runs a LGBTQIA Education and Advocacy program aimed at providing training, recourses, and guidelines to teachers on how to address LGBTQ issues in the classroom.
Some teachers of the San Diego School District raised concern over the treatment of teachers during these training.
According to a press release, "many times, we [teachers] were asked harsh questions and asked to raise our hands," a first-grade teacher explained. Questions included, "Were you raised to only believe there are two genders? Did your parents ever discuss choices to you of gender?"
Teachers who admitted they grew up with a binary or biblical view of gender were told how wrong and backward those views were. "I was truly offended knowing my parents raised me in a solid Christian home," the first-grade teacher wrote.
LGBTQ related policies remains a contentious issue among the California legislation and local communities.
While there has been an upsurge in the push for inclusiveness in the state, the community often disagrees with the "how" part of implementing policies on inclusivity without attaching political agendas.
AB 493 already passed the State Assembly after a third reading and has moved to the State Senate. As of June 10, the Senate Committee has postponed the hearing once and Assemblymember Gloria has now requested to cancel the scheduled senate hearing.
AB 493 continues to remain in the State Senate Education Committee awaiting a hearing to determine whether it can pass into law.

The Salvadoran Truth Commission's Investigation of the Murders of the Four American Churchwomen
We already have discussed the mission work in El Salvador of the four American churchwomen, their December 1980 brutal murders, the subsequent non-judicial and judicial investigations and successful Salvadoran criminal prosecutions for these crimes.[1]
The Truth Commission for El Salvador also investigated these crimes and its March 1993 report found:
the December 2, 1980, arrests and murders of the churchwomen had been planned prior to the arrival of two of them that evening from Nicaragua;
the National Guard deputy sergeant in charge that night of the killing was carrying out the orders of a superior officer;
the Director-General of the National Guard at the time, Carlos Eugenio Vides Casanova, and other high security forces officers knew that members of the National Guard had committed the murders pursuant to orders of a superior officer and were in charge of covering up those facts;
Vides Casanova and another officer impeded the gathering of evidence and thereby adversely affected the judicial investigation of the crimes;
the two Salvadoran military investigations of this crime (Monterrosa and Zepeda) were not serious and instead sought to conceal the involvement of higher officials;
the Minister of Defense at the time, General Jose Guillermo Garcia, made no serious effort to conduct a thorough investigation of responsibility for the murders; and
the State of El Salvador failed in its responsibility to conduct a thorough and fair investigation of the crime and to find and punish the culprits.[2]

Giulio Cesare 1968 Live Performance Review
American Record Guide March/April 2000, p.120-121 by John Baker
evised as a vehicle for Treigle, and crystallizing the star status of Sills, the highly acclaimed production of Giulio Cesare that was given in 1966 by the New York City Opera-directed by Tito Capobianco and conducted by Julius Rudel in his abbreviated and touched-up performing edition-was recorded the following year by RCA. Despite the purist arguments that could be made against it, that recording has endured for its artistic merits (6182 on CD).
In September 1968, Sills and Treigle made their debuts in Buenos Aires at Teatro Colon, in their admired roles but in a different production and different performing edition, by no less a baroque specialist of the day than Karl Richter. Richter himself was to go on yet one year later, in 1969, to record the full, long score of this Handel opera for DC, with Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau and Tatiana Troyanos as the stars. (Having thus sung Cleopatra, mezzo Troyanos went on in a later staged production to sing the castrato role of Cesare in its original register. But that's another story.)
Joining Treigle and Sills with Richter in Handel might at a glance seem rather like Abbott and Costello Meet the Wolfman in the Haunted House, in stylistic terms. To be sure, Richter is a formidable but rather stolid and distant presence in these excerpts, with the orchestra miked murkily in relation to the voices. Still, what is here is enough to prompt regret that the entire performance was not given us, rather than just a bunch of barely connected highlights. Except for the Overture and five segments of recitative, the excerpts here are concentrated entirely on the two stars. (Only in the scraps of recitative do we hear other members of the cast: Maureen Forrester as Cornelia, Peter Schreier as Sesto, and Franz Crass as 1′010meo.)
In the full score, Caesar and Cleopatra each have eight arias, plus a couple of important accompagnato recitatives. Here we have four of Caesar's arias, plus his famous 'Alma del gran Pompeo'; five of Cleopatra's arias plus two accompagnato pieces; their big duet, and the final ensemble. Among these is the big seduction scene ('V'adoro, pupille') in Act II. Representing the score is less important than documenting the fine vocal estate of the two stars, as they are caught up in the excitement of stage performance. Adjustment to the less than ideal sonics is easily made, and one can really remember what a powerful singer Treigle was and how sad that his career was cut short still at its peak. Sills is genuinely beguiling, and while she uses essentially the same embellishments as in the studio recording, they convey new freshness and daring here.

I'm pretty sure the previous reviewer had a faulty unit, or possibly a rare V1 model. I've run this PSU in a Sugo SG05 rig with GTX Titan and a i5 2500 with no problems. Great, reliable unit. Mine, however, is a V2 unit that featured a new fan and a couple of capacitors on the 24-pin to smooth delivery out a little. No whine, no screeching.
However the fan is still noisy when the unit is under major load, which is very noticeable in small cases - taking a star off for that.
Bought this with a Silverstone FT03-mini case with the idea of using it as my main gaming PC.
Unfortunately this PSU puts out a lot of noise . Bad noise , rattling winey piercing noise thats impossible to ignore.

Under conditions where the phase (methamphetamine administration, restricted feeding) or distribution (circadian splitting) of locomotor activity is altered, per expression in the cortex parallels the overt rhythm of wakefulness, whereas the circadian oscillation of per gene expression in the SCN remains unaffected [ 49 51 52 ] . Thus, in contrast to its role in the SCN, PER protein in the cortex is not a component of a self-sustaining circadian oscillator [ 53 ] . Instead, per expression in the cortex seems to the follow sleep-wake history, consistent with the hypothesis that it is related to homeostatic regulation of sleep.
However, the intracellularly-recorded hyperthermic γ oscillation disappeared and was replaced by a smooth depolarization (Fig.
Series resistance, Rs, was compensated up to the point of amplifier oscillation with the Axopatch circuit.
1C,D), with a mean oscillation frequency of 45.

Red sea (Arabian Gulf), which is a magnet for divers of all countries, has a diverse flora and fauna.
There are about four hundred species of fish and about eight hundred other representatives of the animals. The absolute majority lives in the southern coastal shallows. A third of them live in the Red sea. Until 1869, the opening of the Suez canal, endemic species were much more, but since then the flora and fauna of the Mediterranean and red seas were mixed.
In the aquarium in most cases, contains several species of fish. So when selecting them you need to pay special attention to match the requirements of the conditions of keeping and feeding. According to data available at the present time there are about 300 species of aquarium fish, but more than half of them are rare. When krasnovidova the content of the fish is very difficult to create optimal conditions for each species. I mean the lighting, temperature, vegetation, and oxygen feed mode, the thickness of the layer of water, its cruelty and acidity. However, many fish species are characterized by their ability to adapt to environment conditions.

Q: Extracting information from an HTML parsed document I'm new to HTML and XML processing, and have a question about extracting certain parts of a parsed HTML document. The following document doc, was produced with htmlTreeParse in package XML, and can be reproduced with the following code.
What happens to the four-digit number at the end of each line when href="..." is accessed?  I need to extract those numbers, but they seem to disappear.
library(XML)
doc <- htmlTreeParse("http://www.retrosheet.org/gamelogs/index",
                     useInternalNodes = TRUE)
doc["//a/@href"][100:101]
# [[1]]
#                                            href
# "http://www.retrosheet.org/gamelogs/gl1924.zip"
# attr(,"class")
# [1] "XMLAttributeValue"
#
# [[2]]
#                                            href
# "http://www.retrosheet.org/gamelogs/gl1925.zip"
# attr(,"class")
# [1] "XMLAttributeValue"

So basically, from the following I want to extract the final four digits.  The result should be the vector
[1] 1871 1872 ... ... 2012 2013

Here's a peek at the html document
...

    1871
    1872
    ...                                                     ....
    ...                                                     ....
    2012
    2013

    World Series

    All-Star

A: If you want the value instead of the href attribute, try one of the following:
doc["//a/text()"][100:101]
sapply(doc["//a"][100:101], xmlValue)
sapply(doc["//a"][100:101], xmlValue, trim = TRUE)

You can now jailbreak your iOS 9.3.3. device via a tool from the Pangu Team. Jailbreaking plays like a game of chess between hackers and Apple. Hackers continually attempt to outdo Apple by trying to jailbreak the latest version of iOS, a process that lets people customize their iOS devices and run unsupported apps. In the next iOS version, Apple then tries to shore up the vulnerability that allowed the jailbreak to work. Users do take a risk when they jailbreak their devices as the practice is not sanctioned by Apple and can create security risks.
CNET también está disponible en español, Don't show this again, Though Motorola's new phones share some functions, each will have a distinct feature set, The C450 allows its users to see who is calling, while C250 has downloadable content from MTV and lets consumers mix music and create their own ring tones, The C550 comes with a built-in VGA camera, and the C343, a model already available in North bun of raw sienna iphone case America, offers enhanced messaging service and changeable covers, The V150 mobile phone is a new version of the V50, which was introduced in 1999, Availability of some of its functions will depend on carrier support..
With the debut of "mMode," the carrier is offering games, messaging services and other features on a customer's mobile phone--all for an additional monthly fee. To use the service, customers will have to buy one of four phones, which range in price from $79 to $200. mMode, the U.S. version of the wildly popular i-mode offered by Japanese carrier DoCoMo, is among the first attempts by U.S. carriers to sell more than just faster wireless Internet access over their new telephone networks. The success or failure of mMode could shape what other carriers offer to their customers. Sprint PCS, for example, plans to launch a higher-speed phone network in early summer.
You can store a good chunk of your music library on theW705's 4GB memory stick, or upgrade to up to 8GB if you need bun of raw sienna iphone case more, It also has120MB of onboard memory, The biggest drawback of the W705 is the lack of a standard3.5mm headphone jack, The included adaptor is fine for hands-free use with theincluded (very short) headphones, but it's a metre long -- so when we used ourown headphones, we could have skipped like a boxer/small girl (delete as appropriate) with the cable, It also takes up thephone's USB port, which was inconvenient, since we had to unplug the headphonesevery time we wanted to transfer music, But it's got stereo Bluetooth, so itcould stream to a set of wireless headphones..
Not surprisingly, China will be a major driver in the growth of smartphone adoption. The country is already leading the world in total smartphone users with nearly 520 million. In 2018, eMarketer anticipates China having 704.1 million smartphone users. The US, which is currently in second place with 165.3 million smartphone users, will drop to third place behind India. India, which had just 76 million smartphone users in 2013, will see that figure soar to 279.2 million in 2018, according to eMarketer's predictions.

General Linguistics programme at the University of Oulu offers students 60 ECTS credits of instruction (Basic Studies 25 ECTS credits and Intermediate Studies 35 ECTS credits).
General Linguistics cannot, however, be studied as a major subject in the University. Studies in the programme aim to familiarize the students with the general principles of the scientific study of natural language. General Linguistics uses concrete language materials from different languages as data and utilizes various theoretical and methodological approaches.
General Linguistics is a particularly suitable subsidiary (minor) subject for students of the Finnish Language, Saami or other foreign languages or students in the Logopedics programme. For native speakers, General Linguistics provides a novel perspective on Finnish, Swedish and Saami in connection to other languages of the world.
Students of foreign languages, too, can benefit from studies in General Linguistics, as the programme provides the skills to analyse the structure of the languages they are studying.
Subsidiary studies in General Linguistics helps prepare the students for various careers. General Linguistics is a useful subsidiary subject not only for researchers but also for students planning to become teachers as it provides a wide perspective on the nature of language and grammar.
Study guidance is provided by Lecturer Santeri Palviainen, tel +358 29 448 3482, santeri.palviainen(at)oulu.fi.
