GIC, Avendus fund among anchor investors in Happiest Minds IPO
Home / Media / In the News / GIC, Avendus fund among anchor investors in Happiest Minds IPO
Wed, 9 Sep 2020 | VCCircle
Software services company Happiest Minds Technologies Ltd raised Rs 315.9 crore ($43.13 million) from a bunch of anchor investors that include Singapore sovereign wealth fund GIC Pte Ltd ahead of its initial public offering.
Hedge funds and public markets funds managed by Avendus Capital, Sumeet Nagar-led Malabar Investments and IIFL Asset Management Ltd also took part in the anchor allotment, stock-exchange data showed.
Bengaluru-based Happiest Minds, which is backed by private equity investor JP Morgan CMDB II, allotted a little more than 19 million shares at the upper end of the Rs 165-166 per share price band to 25 institutional investors.
GIC bought shares worth Rs 18 crore. The Avendus Absolute Return Fund and Malabar each subscribed to shares worth Rs 7.6 crore.
IIFL's Special Opportunities Fund (Series 5), which typically makes public market or pre-IPO bets, also bought shares worth Rs 7.6 crore.
Anchor investors, also known as cornerstone investors, are institutions that accept a one-month lock-in for a sizeable allocation of shares. Their participation highlights investors' confidence in an IPO and sets a benchmark for the investor community at large.
Kuwait Investment Authority (KIA), the West Asian nation's sovereign wealth fund with nearly $600 billion in assets, bought Happiest Minds shares worth Rs 16 crore.
Other investors included Goldman Sachs India, Fidelity Asian Values Plc and Integrated Core Strategies Asia Pte Ltd.
Indian asset managers that subscribed to Happiest Minds' shares are Axis Mutual Fund, ICICI Prudential, Aditya Birla Sun Life Mutual Fund, Franklin Templeton Mutual Fund, L&T Mutual Fund, SBI Mutual Fund and Sundaram Mutual Fund.
India life insurers that participated in the anchor allotment included HDFC Life Insurance, Aditya Birla Sun Life Insurance, SBI Life Insurance and Max Life Insurance.
Happiest Minds' IPO opens on Monday and closes two days later. The company is targeting a valuation of as much as Rs 2,438 crore through the IPO that comprises a fresh issue of shares worth Rs 110 crore and an offer for sale of shares worth up to Rs 592 crore by the company's founder Ashok Soota as well as JP Morgan CMDB II.
JP Morgan CMDB II will exit its over five-year investment in the company with handsome returns, VCCircle reported in June after the company filed its draft red herring prospectus with the capital markets regulator.
The IPO will result in 28.79% stake dilution on a post-issue basis. Soota's stake will fall to 40.89% after the IPO from 48.83% at present.
Soota has been executive chairman and promoter of Happiest Minds since August 2011. Prior to Happiest Minds, he was founding chairman and managing director of Mindtree (1999-2011). He was also president of Wipro's technology business from 1984 to 1999, his LinkedIn profile shows.
At least 75% of Happiest Minds' IPO is reserved for institutional investors, or qualified institutional buyers (QIBs), owing to its past three-year profitability track record. In a typical IPO, at least 50% of shares are reserved for QIBs 35% is for retail investors and 15% for non-institutional non-retail investors such as corporate bodies and high net-worth individuals.
The company turned profitable in 2018-19 with a net profit of Rs 14.2 crore on revenue of Rs 590.4 crore. It had reported a loss of Rs 22.5 crore for the year ended March 2018 on revenue of Rs 463 crore. Its consolidated net profit for 2019-20 jumped to Rs 71.7 crore on revenue from operations of Rs 698 crore.
Happiest Minds will use about Rs 101 crore of the net fresh proceeds towards long-term working capital and the remaining portion for general corporate purposes. The proceeds from the secondary sale will go to the selling shareholders.
ICICI Securities and Nomura Financial Advisory and Securities (India) Pvt. Ltd are the merchant bankers arranging the share sale.

"Grow House" Movie To Be Released In Theaters On April 20, 2017
by MoneyFocus · March 20, 2017
Whoever said, "money doesn't grow on trees" never met Darius, Pat and their friends. Fans of comedy have a hilarious new film to celebrate – Hollyweed Films presents "Grow House" starring DeRay Davis, Lil' Duval, Martin Starr, Snoop Dogg, Faizon Love, Malcolm McDowell, and Lin Shaye, as well as features a cameo by Charlamagne Tha God.
Written and directed by Mark "DJ Pooh" Jordan, "Grow House" will be released in theaters April 20, 2017.
There's a boom in medical marijuana dispensaries in the state of California and the U.S. These facilities have reached record numbers, cropping up like Starbucks or McDonald's. States across the nation are legalizing medical and recreational marijuana. Our two unlikely heroes, Pat (DeRay Davis – "EMPIRE", "21 Jump Street", "GI Joe") and Darius (Lil Duval – "Scary Movie 5″,"Meet the Blacks"), figure they can help the medical marijuana movement, but mainly help themselves by trying to grow their own cannabis and selling their crop to the dispensaries. Only one problem, knowing how to smoke marijuana doesn't mean you know how to grow it.
After taking a trip to "Dr. Doobie" (Malcolm McDowell – "Entourage", "The Mentalist", "Home Alone") to become legally certified growers, they gain access to a Bel Air mansion to use as a "grow house." Although they convince Snoop Dogg (played as himself) to fund their operation, our heroes soon discover what can grow wrong, will go wrong in this comedy of errors.

Q: Refresh token call fails using spring security an oauth2 with error: UserDetailsService is required I am using Spring Security OAuth2 for authorizations. When trying to refresh the token I get an error: UserDetailsService is required (interestingly I get this error only on unix machines and not on windows). I am using Spring OAuth2 version 2.0.7.
For some reason the AuthenticationManager in the DefaultTokenService is not empty and it tries to authenticate the user to check if he still exists. I think it gets initialized because of some spring security vs. spring oauth2 configuration problems.
I am not using any custom UserDetailsService, hence it should not authenticate the users at this point. However, when I debug it I see that it tries to use one from the WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter and gets to this error. Even if I provide my custom dummy UserDetailsService, it is not using that one, but tries to use the other one, which is null. Am I missing here something? I can not find out why is this happening?
Here is my Oauth2 configuration
@Configuration
@EnableAuthorizationServer
public class OAuth2Config extends AuthorizationServerConfigurerAdapter {

    @Autowired
    private MySpringTokenStore tokenStore;

    @Autowired
    private AuthenticationManager authenticationManager;

    @Autowired
    private MyClientDetailsServiceImpl clientDetailsService;

    @Override
    public void configure(AuthorizationServerEndpointsConfigurer endpoints) throws Exception {
        endpoints.tokenStore(tokenStore);
        endpoints.authenticationManager(authenticationManager)
          .approvalStoreDisabled();
    }

    @Override
    public void configure(ClientDetailsServiceConfigurer clients) throws Exception {
        clients.withClientDetails(clientDetailsService);
    }

    @Override
    public void configure(AuthorizationServerSecurityConfigurer security) throws Exception {
        security.allowFormAuthenticationForClients();
    }

    @Bean
    public TokenStore tokenStore() {
        return new InMemoryTokenStore();
    }
}

Here is my Spring security configuration
@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
public class SecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {

    @Override
    protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
        // @formatter:off
        http
        .authorizeRequests()
            .antMatchers("/myRest/events/**", "/events/**", "/events", "/myRest/events").permitAll()
            .antMatchers("/login.jsp", "/login").permitAll()
        .and()
            .csrf().requireCsrfProtectionMatcher(new AntPathRequestMatcher("/oauth/authorize")).disable()
            .csrf().requireCsrfProtectionMatcher(new AntPathRequestMatcher("/myRest/events")).disable()
        .sessionManagement().sessionFixation().none();
        // @formatter:on
    }

    @Override
    public void configure(WebSecurity web) throws Exception {
        web.ignoring().antMatchers("/index*", "/myRest/events/**", "/events/**", "/myRest/events", "/events", "/swagger/**", "/kibana/**",
            "/elastic/**", "/version/**", "/api-docs/**", "/js/**", "/oauth/uncache_approvals", "/oauth/cache_approvals");
    }
}

A: Authorization server endpoint needs UserDetailsService. In your OAuth2Config class configure user details service like the following:
@Autowired
private UserDetailsService userDetailsService;

@Override
public void configure(AuthorizationServerEndpointsConfigurer endpoints) throws Exception {
    endpoints.tokenStore(tokenStore);
    endpoints.userDetailsService(userDetailsService);
    endpoints.authenticationManager(authenticationManager)
      .approvalStoreDisabled();
}

You can also configure it in WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter:
@Autowired
private AuthorizationServerEndpointsConfiguration endpoints;

@Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {

    if (!endpoints.getEndpointsConfigurer().isUserDetailsServiceOverride()) {
        UserDetailsService userDetailsService = http.getSharedObject(UserDetailsService.class);
        endpoints.getEndpointsConfigurer().userDetailsService(userDetailsService);
    }

    // @formatter:off
    http
    .authorizeRequests()
        .antMatchers("/myRest/events/**", "/events/**", "/events", "/myRest/events").permitAll()
        .antMatchers("/login.jsp", "/login").permitAll()
    .and()
        .csrf().requireCsrfProtectionMatcher(new AntPathRequestMatcher("/oauth/authorize")).disable()
        .csrf().requireCsrfProtectionMatcher(new AntPathRequestMatcher("/myRest/events")).disable()
    .sessionManagement().sessionFixation().none();
    // @formatter:on
}

A: Adding on to @VijayaNandwana's answer and considering @FilipMajernik's comment,
I created a class for OAuthConfig and made the order less than the class which extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter.
@Configuration
@Order(1)
    public class OAuthConfig extends AuthorizationServerConfigurerAdapter {
@Autowired
private UserDetailsService userDetailsService;

@Autowired
private JdbcTemplate jdbcTemplate;

@Bean
public TokenStore tokenStore() {
    return new JdbcTokenStore(jdbcTemplate.getDataSource());
}

@Autowired
private AuthenticationManager authenticationManager;

@Override
public void configure(AuthorizationServerEndpointsConfigurer endpoints) throws Exception {
    endpoints.tokenStore(tokenStore());
    endpoints.userDetailsService(userDetailsService);
    endpoints.authenticationManager(authenticationManager)
                .approvalStoreDisabled();
    }
}

And Class which extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter
@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
@Order(2)
public class SecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
  //Configurations
}

A: If implementing custom DefaultTokenServices, we don't need UserDetailsService.
@Configuration
public class AuthorizationServerConfig extends AuthorizationServerConfigurerAdapter {
    @Override
    public void configure(final AuthorizationServerEndpointsConfigurer endpoints) throws Exception {
        endpoints
            // ...
            .tokenServices(tokenServices(endpoints));
    }

    public AuthorizationServerTokenServices tokenServices(final AuthorizationServerEndpointsConfigurer endpoints) {
        final DefaultTokenServices tokenServices = new DefaultTokenServices();
        tokenServices.setTokenStore(endpoints.getTokenStore());
        tokenServices.setClientDetailsService(endpoints.getClientDetailsService());
        tokenServices.setTokenEnhancer(endpoints.getTokenEnhancer());
        // ...
        tokenServices.setAuthenticationManager(
            new ProviderManager(List.of(new MyCustomAuthProvider())));
        return tokenServices;
    }
}

The commit message says:

Add AuthenticationManager to default token services
So that it can be used to check user account changes in a refresh
  token grant. If a global UserDetailsService is available it will be
  used as a default (e.g. if user has a GlobalAuthenticationConfigurer).
  It works by constructing a PreAuthenticationAuthenticationProvider
  and using that the authenticate the user in DefaultTokenServices.
  To customize that process, users can create their own
  DefaultTokenServices and inject an AuthenticationManager.
Fixes gh-401

A: The authorisation endpoint requires a UserDetailsService.
Add this:
@Override
public void configure(AuthorizationServerEndpointsConfigurer endpoints) throws Exception {
    endpoints.tokenStore(tokenStore());
    endpoints.userDetailsService(userDetailsService);
    endpoints.authenticationManager(authenticationManager)
                .approvalStoreDisabled();
    }
}

Where Our Answers *Really* Come From!
I have a fairly amusing story that concerns you two guys. Last winter while surfing with my remote, I came across the "public access" channel and a local guy named Sri Harold Klemp (also known to devotees as the"ECKMASTER") who is the founder of an Eastern-style religion called Eckankar. Eckankar has a headquarters here and Mr. Klemp gives weekly addresses there that are rebroadcast on TV. I was about to go on browsing when he suddenly started talking about Click and Clack and explained that one of you is in contact with the Holy Spirit.
The story involved a call you took on the air about a guy who had a chronically unsound muffler on his van. He mentioned that he was in a band, and one of you (he couldn't remember which) asked where the band practiced. It turned out that the loud volume was the cause of his many-mufflered troubles, since the band rehearsed in the van itself. He was extremely impressed with the insight of whichever of you figured this out, and he attributed it to a link with the Holy Spirit. I have never heard of divine intervention in auto mechanics, except for once when I saw a guy faith-heal a VW bug. Incidentally, he was quick to point out that the other brother did NOT have these incredible powers, but he said he still enjoyed listening to BOTH of you anyway.

Clay pebbles are a popular hydroponic medium around the world. Manufactured in Italy - they are derived from a renewable and plenitful source (clay); it is considered an ecologically sustainable medium. The clay is formed into pellets and then fired in rotary kilns at 1200°C. This causes the clay to expand inside (like popcorn) and to become porous - high surface area for colonisation by beneficial bacteria. FishPlant Clay Pebbles are light in weight, do not compact and are completely reusable - they can be cleaned and sterilised after use. They are also inert and pH neutral and contain no nutrients. They provide good oxygen levels around the root zone because the pebbles drain freely and do not hold excessive water.


Story: Many believe the prophecy from the Book of Revelation provides a map to a terrifying future - or it presents fragments of history that have come to life in our time. The signs, they claim, are all around us: terrorist attacks, extreme weather - the list goes on.
The passage specifically points to the arrival of the Anti-Christ, who is branded with the numerical sequence "666": the mark of the Beast. The Anti-Christ will receive his power directly from Satan to establish a counterfeit kingdom on earth, signaling the beginning of Armageddon.
Robert Thorn is unaware of such dark prophecies. Thorn, a senior American diplomat, has other things on his mind. His wife, Katherine, has endured a difficult delivery and she's as yet unaware their newborn child has died. Devastated by the loss, Thorn's concern turns to Katherine, who had suffered two previous miscarriages. The news will surely devastate her.
The hospital priest, Father Spiletto, presents Thorn with another child born that night, whose mother died in childbirth. The priest compels Thorn to take the infant boy as his own; Katherine will never know the truth, and their son, which they name Damien, will be raised as their flesh and blood. Katherine embraces the child as her own, blossoming in motherhood; Thorn, it would seem, has made the right choice.
Thorn's career ascends - he becomes the U.S. ambassador to Great Britain - and the family settles into an estate outside London. But certain events, all seeming to revolve around the now five-year-old Damien, are deeply disturbing: Damien's nanny hangs herself at the youngster's birthday party; a strange priest brings dire warnings to Thorn; a children's trip to the zoo results in a panicked frenzy; Damien becomes hysterical during a drive to church; and blurred movements in a series of photographs portend shocking deaths.
The troubling incidents multiply, pointing to something wrong - terribly wrong - with Damien. Enter Mrs. Baylock, Damien's new nanny, who seems to have a preordained devotion to the child. Then tragedy strikes closer to home. But only later does Thorn comprehend the truth: Damien is no ordinary child; he is the long-prophesized Anti-Christ. Now, Thorn must make the ultimate sacrifice to prevent the unspeakable terror that awaits the world.

Decorating your own apartment can be exciting, but it can be nerve-wracking when you are unsure about what colours to use, what decor pieces to buy. Because of all that, most tend to overlook the fact that their walls remain bare. For starters, consider adding a dose of pattern to your interior scheme and to give you a little kickstart, take a look at our four tips in bringing our pattern laminate sheets into your space.
Mixing patterns can be tricky and if you want to play safe, go matchy-matchy.

These fabric laminates will not only create a sense of cohesion, their design will also appear beautifully under accent lighting.
It is important to work with existing pieces instead of against it to avoid visual clutter. We all know that the sofa usually takes up majority of the space in the living room, thus keeping its colour in mind is essential when you are deciding on the other decorative elements of your abode. For example, Grey Ash (PG8338R) laminates balances out the otherwise dominating, dark brown seating. Even if you intend to switch up your decor in the future, these grey laminates are of a versatile shade that will easily work well with any colour.
If you have art pieces that you want to draw attention to, a more toned-down laminate might appeal to you. Here, we let the current decor dictate the colour scheme of the laminates, using Dark Fabric (PG2988DE) laminates on the cabinet doors. The bedroom should cocoon you to sleep after a long day and these gorgeous laminates certainly creates an enveloping atmosphere of relaxation when paired with this bedroom's dark palette.
Florals usually give off a feminine feel but Krem Sarmasik (PQ2009HG) laminates provides a gender-neutral choice for couples to be head-over-heels for. Your living room will certainly be in full bloom in time for your housewarming party.
If a simple yet elegant look is what you have in mind, these laminates will definitely fit your taste. Aside from having its own little sparkle from its shiny surface, these floral laminates will be a stunning backdrop that highlights the wall without overpowering the space. Especially if you love nature, Krem Sarmasik (PQ2009HG) laminates will keep your home blossoming all year round!
At Jennings, our laminates are the perfect addition that allows you to easily update the interior of your home. If you are uncertain about using patterns, why not come down to our laminate gallery to take a closer look? A simple addition of our laminate sheets might just take you a step closer to interior design dream.


They Fell In Action Seventy Miles Apart But Are Now United In Death.
If you visit Ypres Reservoir Cemetery you may notice the graves of Major James Leadbitter Knott and Captain Henry Basil Knott buried side by side in plots referenced VB 15 and VB 16.
The story of how these brothers from the north east of England came to lie where they do today was a most unusual if not unique event in the years after the conclusion of the Great War.
The brothers were the sons of Sir James Knott and Lady Margaret Annie Knott, Sir James having risen from his first job as a shipping clerk on Newcastle's quayside to form one of the world's biggest shipping companies, the Prince Line. The Prince Line gave him vast wealth and in the preceding years he also owned coal mines, studied law and was called to the Bar as well as serving as MP for Sunderland in 1910. He was quite rightly described as one of the merchant giants of the time.
The first son James Leadbitter Knott was born on December 2nd 1882 when the family was living at Frank Place in North Shields. Educated at Eton College James Knott then travelled extensively mainly in the USA as part of his training to see how his father's business interests were run. He was said to have inherited a great commercial ability and also had aspirations to enter politics becoming the prospective Unionist candidate for the Hyde Division in Cheshire just prior to hostilities.
At the onset of war in 1914 James Knott applied for a commission and was accepted into the 9th battalion of the Northumberland Fusiliers with whom he travelled to France later transferring to the 10th battalion of the West Yorkshire Regiment. In March of 1916 the Hyde Division wrote to Major Knott enquiring if he would be prepared to return to England and contest the parliamentary seat which had become vacant. He replied that "Party politics were of little significance at that time and that his duty was in France."
He was awarded the DSO in the Birthday Honours of June 3rd 1916 and it was just after this that perhaps with a sense of foreboding for the upcoming Somme offensive he wrote a moving letter to his parents marked, "Only to be sent in the event of my death."
"This letter is not a message from the grave, I know that I will be with you when you are reading this I hope and desire above all things that you will not unduly grieve. My medals are yours but I would like them destroyed when you both join me. My clothes, furniture and motor car must be immediately disposed of, everything which reminds you of my death must be removed. This is my urgent desire and wish."
On the morning of July 1st 1916 as the Battle of the Somme opened Major Knott was second in command of the 10th West Yorkshires and was with his men in their jumping off positions facing the German lines in the heavily fortified village of Fricourt. At 7-28am three mines were detonated at a position known as the Tambour and at 7-30am Major Knott and the battalion advanced in lines passing quickly over the German front line but as the smoke cleared found themselves caught between the enemy's front and second positions as the German defenders emerged from their dugouts and opened murderous machine gun fire on the West Yorkshires advance parties and their support which was following up. The casualties sustained by the battalion were the highest in the British army for a single day throughout the war totalling over 700, among them Major Knott killed in action leading his men forward.
When that fateful day was over James Leadbitter Knott was buried close to where he fell in Fricourt New Military Cemetery along with his commanding officer Lt Col Dickson and many of his men.
The second son Henry Basil Knott was born on February 5th 1891 when the family were living at the Manor House in the Jesmond area of Newcastle. Henry Knott was tutored at home in his early years followed by attendance like his brother James at Eton College. Shortly after the declaration of war Henry Knott applied for a commission which resulted in him joining the Northumberland Fusiliers as a 2nd Lieutenant in September of 1914 and undergoing training in England where he was promoted to Captain before travelling to France on July 15th 1915.
Described as a most capable and popular officer and clever caricaturist, Captain Knott and the battalion spent the remainder of July and the early days of August being introduced to the vagaries of trench warfare before moving into the line on the southern edge of the notorious Ypres Salient. On September 6th the 9th Northumberlands were in the line at Bois Carre, a small wood close to the village of Vierstraat. It was here close to a position known as the Western Redoubt that Captain Knott received a bullet wound to the head resulting in him being taken by ambulance to Poperinghe where he died of his wounds at No 10 Casualty Clearing Station at Remy Siding at 1-40am on September 7th.
The file on Henry Knott at the National Archives reveals that his father Sir James received a letter in November of 1915 stating that his son was buried in "the new cemetery near Poperinghe" which is however seven miles west of Ypres where he lies today and the map references given in the letter equate to burial in Lijssenthoek Military Cemetery very close to Remy Siding where he died so this would seem to fit in with the burial practice of the time.
It is my belief that at the end of the Great War Henry Basil Knott was lying in Lijssenthoek Military Cemetery while his brother James Leadbitter Knott had Fricourt New Military Cemetery as his resting place seventy miles from his brother.
It is here that supposition comes into the story as to the exact sequence of events that followed but it would appear that in the early 1920s Sir James Knott used his considerable importance and influence to get the bodies of his sons exhumed and moved to where they lie today side by side in Ypres Reservoir Cemetery.
"Devoted In Life In Death Not Divided"
Just down the road from the cemetery stands St Georges Memorial Church built after the war the tower of which was funded by Sir James Knott and inside a plaque to his sons can be seen. The brothers are also remembered in their native north east of England on memorials at Cullercoats, Wylam and Heddon and at the church of St James and St Basil named and built by their father at Fenham as well as the memorial park in Heddon built in their memory and opened in 1925.
Sir James Knott died in 1934 but the trust that he founded and which still bears his name continues to make payments to charities to this day.

And now the brand is also preparing to celebrate this landmark anniversary at the NAIAS – taking place from 10-23 January 2011 – with the world premiere of the MINI Paceman Concept. This spectacular study vehicle establishes a totally new category of car with its potential for providing even more driving fun and an even greater range of usage. The MINI Paceman Concept could become another building block in the ongoing development of the brand and its product portfolio.
The MINI Paceman Concept takes the fundamental strengths of MINI – its uniqueness, go-kart handling, agility, dynamic capability and individual design – and gives them a fresh twist with the help of cutting-edge technology and an innovative body concept. It combines a sporty, masculine appearance, versatility and coupe looks with the dimensions of the four-door MINI Countryman. And it brings together the classical MINI concept, the defining features of the MINI Countryman and the style of a coupe to harmonious effect. The result is a MINI with visual "muscle car" design cues, which displays its dynamic capability from every angle and showcases it impressively both when viewed from the side and in the design of the rear.
The MINI Paceman Concept, whose crossover design makes it the first Sports Activity Coupe (SAC) in the small car segment, blends lifestyle elements with premium quality. It is the ideal car for young, modern, extrovert urbanites who love the hallmark MINI go-kart feeling, enjoy stand-out individuality, place great importance on the personality of a brand and buy into its character and ethos. They are confident types, who live according to their own style and express their distinctive individuality in a MINI, who use the big-city mobility the MINI provides to embark on voyages of discovery through the urban jungle, and who experience driving fun in its most concentrated form thanks to the excellent ride comfort of the MINI both in everyday driving and over long journeys.
The masculine design language of the MINI Paceman Concept spotlights both the stand-alone identity of the concept and its membership of the MINI family. The four-seater study, whose two large doors and a wide-opening tailgate mark it out unmistakably as a MINI, imbues the sporty, cutting-edge Sports Activity Coupe (SAC) category with undeniable appeal. The platform of the MINI Countryman, with its hallmark MINI proportions, increased ground clearance and raised seating position, defines the study's compact dimensions.
Exterior: Sports Activity Coupe – urban and masculine.
The MINI Paceman Concept retains the familiar MINI family front end, but adds its own distinctive flavour. The large headlights with chrome surrounds extend far into the front wings and, together with the strikingly contoured bonnet, emphasise the imposing front end. The MINI Paceman Concept largely replicates the front grille design of the MINI Cooper S Countryman. However, additional intakes in the lower section of the front bumper ensure improved brake ventilation and combine with the study's deep-set foglamps to sharpen its sporting edge. The MINI Paceman Concept's fresh interpretation of the side scuttle at the transition from front wing to door houses both the side direction indicator and an air outlet. The side scuttle has a broad, sturdy-looking design and leads the eye from the A-pillar down towards the front wheel, making it an unmistakable, sporty, wheel-accentuating feature.
Large 19-inch wheels designed exclusively for the study car and dark wheel arch borders with side skirts highlighted in the same color team up with the familiar MINI shoulder line rising up slightly towards the rear to underline the car's sporty and powerful appearance. The MINI Paceman Concept shows off its roof contours particularly effectively. The flat roofline runs horizontally from front to rear, where it flows into a wide, transparent-looking C-pillar. The windows appear to wrap around the car like a band of glass, with the "helmet roof" – in a strikingly contrasting color – suspended on top. The coupe-specific windows taper as they extend to the rear, and combine with the slightly rising waistline to create a prominently dynamic wedge shape when viewed from the side. The classic MINI three-level split of roof, greenhouse and body is again clearly recognizable in this study vehicle.
"In contrast to the more vertical design of the MINI Countryman, we've given the MINI Paceman Concept a horizontal emphasis and accentuated the width of the car rather more," explains Marcus Syring, Head of MINI Exterior Design, to underline the powerful appearance of the study. The new interpretation of the traditional coupe values (the word "coupe" comes from the French "couper" meaning "to cut off") produces a new homogeneous coupe tail which retains the unique MINI charm. Powerful proportions and the muscular design of the vehicle flanks, with their broad rear wings, reinforce its unconventional, athletic impression.
The newly interpreted rear lights are positioned at the outer edges of the rear and underline the dominance of horizontal lines, which run parallel to one another and emphasize the wide track of the rear axle. As with the MINI Cooper S Countryman, the rear apron of the MINI Paceman Concept has a diffuser design. The airflow is channeled between the twin-tailpipe exhaust on the underbody section, further optimizing the car's aerodynamic properties. Even the license plate recess echoes the form of the air intake in the front bumper, forging a stylistic link between the front and rear of the car.
The four-seater car measures 4,110 millimeters in length, 1,789 millimeters in width and 1,541 millimeters in height. In telltale family style, the MINI Paceman Concept has extremely short overhangs, which lend particular emphasis to the car's athletic stature.
Interior: a blend of modern functionality and luxurious character.
The interior of the MINI Paceman Concept deliberately draws from the MINI design language, yet also comes across as refreshingly new. Behind the study's masculine exterior lies an elegant yet sporty core imbued with a premium sense of quality. The instrument panel of the MINI study is defined by its distinctive, concave forms and the sporty but functional impression it creates. Particularly large side air vents underline the character of the interior, which is defined by cutting-edge functionality. The central air vents, Centre Speedo and gearshift lever are given broad surrounds in a contrasting color.
The slim centre console, which maximizes legroom for the driver and front passenger, melts between the seats into the Centre Rail familiar from the MINI Countryman, creating a visual and functional link between the front and rear seats. This unique and innovative U-profile rail system runs through the middle of the passenger compartment back as far as the rear seat backrests. Light shades of leather pervade the interior of the MINI Paceman Concept and lend it an expressive, luxurious allure. The new interpretation of the brand's familiar elliptical door and side trim extends along the length of the cabin, taking in the B-pillar and emphasizing the length of the interior. At the same time, the communicative and communal character of MINI cars is clearly highlighted. Embedded in the elliptical main element are the shaped armrests with large stowage compartments, ergonomically designed door pulls and the speakers for the sound system. Behind the sports seats are two comfortable individual seats, whose backrests merge boldly into side sections to create fully contoured supports. The "lounge" character that this creates underlines the individual, unconventional appearance of the study car and turns every journey into an experience for the rear passengers, as well as those in the front.
Drive system: powerful and efficient.
Both from a space point of view and in its chassis set-up, the
MINI Paceman Concept has been designed to allow the most powerful drive unit currently available for a MINI to be fitted under the bonnet. The MINI John Cooper Works 1.6-litre twin-scroll turbocharged engine gives the MINI Paceman Concept the means to achieve top-class levels of sports performance. The four-cylinder unit develops 155 kW/211 hp and generates maximum torque of 260 Nm (192 lb-ft), which can be increased to as much as 280 Nm (207 lb-ft) in brief bursts thanks to the Overboost function.
Its MINI Countryman roots give the MINI concept study an ideal platform for the optionally available MINI ALL4 permanent all-wheel-drive system. This features an electromagnetic centre differential positioned directly on the final drive which varies the distribution of power seamlessly between the front and rear axles. In normal driving conditions up to 50 per cent of the drive is sent to the rear wheels, in extreme situations as much as 100 per cent. Harnessing the power of the brawny four-cylinder engines, in all-wheel-drive form the
MINI Paceman Concept would offer an extra dose of driving fun through a traction-led, sporty expression of the agile handling for which MINI is famed.
Chassis: the best handling characteristics in the segment.
MINI chassis technology has been further developed for the MINI Paceman Concept to turn the potential of the extremely powerful engines – safely and with impressive poise – into inspiring agility. Precise, sporty handling and excellent ride comfort set the MINI Paceman Concept apart. That is down not least to the go-kart feeling typical of the brand. The front axle features MacPherson spring struts with lower track control arms, while Electric Power Steering with speed-sensitive power assistance plays a major role in giving the SAC the agility customers expect of the brand. The multi-link rear axle was developed on the back of BMW Group chassis expertise and is designed for use in both the front-wheel-drive and the ALL4 all-wheel-drive versions of the car.
MINI Paceman Concept: an idea ahead of the game – once again.
The MINI Paceman Concept embodies the idea of an incomparable driving experience in a way that meets the needs of a modern, lifestyle-oriented target group but also stays true to the character of the brand.
With the MINI Countryman having already opened up a fascinating new avenue in the expansion of the brand family, the designers are now tapping into the potential of its state-of-the-art drive technology and flexible space concept once again to develop additional usage options in a coupe sibling. The MINI Paceman Concept prioritizes a particularly emotional driving experience and demonstrates this ability in a style typical of the brand. Here you can find clear evidence of how totally new vehicle concepts can still be developed today through unconventional creativity.

In December 2016, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) announced that they will be maintaining the current physician-led model of care and reversing the proposal to replace physician anesthesiologists with nurse anesthetists (1). The proposal, originally published in the Federal Registrar in May 2016, had originally sought to expand the scope of certified nurse anesthetists' role and allow them to practice without a physician supervisor.
This new rule was originally proposed to remedy the current shortage of physicians in the Department of Veterans Affairs. There was concern over whether there would be enough physician anesthesiologists to accommodate the growing number of veterans requiring anesthesia services. Many believe that Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists provide a cost-effective and more accessible solution to the shortage of physician anesthesiologists without compromising quality of care. Since 2001, 17 states have opted to allow CRNAs to act as primary providers of anesthesia. While many CRNAs and Nurse Anesthetist medical organizations will point to studies that show that there is no difference in health outcomes of patients undergoing care from a nurse anesthetist or a physician anesthesiologist, whether these studies are reasonably conducted is still heavily debated.
Under a nurse anesthetist-led model of care, nurse anesthetists would be able to administer anesthesia and prescribe medications, which is now limited to physician anesthesiologists. The proposal drew criticism from organizations like the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA), which argued that completely replacing physician anesthesiologists with nurse anesthetists would compromise patient safety. The president of the ASA, Dr. Jeffrey Plagendhooperating room is a unique care setting, and anesthesia delivery is inherently dangerous and requires physician leadership to ensure patients are as safe as possible. The proposal would have allowed nurse anesthetists to replace physician anesthesiologists in the operating room. One of the main arguments against allowing full practice authority for CRNAs was that it would eliminate the current team-based approach to anesthesia care. The team-based policy is seen as an essential part of addressing Veterans' needs in the operating room.
The agency, however, still left room in the rule for nurse anesthetists to possibly be permitted full practice authority in the future if needed (2). The VA agency stated, "Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNA) will not be included in VA's full practice authority under this final rule, but comment is requested on whether there are access issues or other unconsidered circumstances that might warrant their inclusion in a future rulemaking" (2). The Department of Veterans Affairs is not opposed to giving nurses full practice authority, as evidence by its inclusion of certified nurse-midwives, nurse practitioners, and clinical nurse specialists in the new rule that allows for authority in the full extent of their professional competence without physician supervision. This decision has drawn opposition from the American Medical Association (AMA). The AMA's leadership agrees with ASA and believes that shifting to a nurse-led care model will lead to compromise in patient safety. Both groups actively lobbied against this new proposal.

Q: SwaggerSpringMvcPlugin not working on Spring MVC I am using the following components in my REST back-end project:

*

*Spring MVC: 4.1.2.RELEASE (latest)

*Hibernate4 Object Mapper: 2.4.3 (latest)

*Swagger: 0.9.1 (latest)

*Javaee-web-api: 7.0 (servlet 3.1)

I'm using XML based bean configuration and I was able to get the basic setup with Swagger up and running, using the following in Spring XML Configuration file:
 <mvc:annotation-driven/> <!-- Required so swagger-springmvc can access spring's RequestMappingHandlerMapping  -->

 <bean class="com.mangofactory.swagger.configuration.SpringSwaggerConfig" />

I then cloned the Swagger-UI GIT repo from https://github.com/wordnik/swagger-ui and copied of the dist folder to my /webapp/docs folder. After doing so I was able to use the JS based UI on the following URL:
http://localhost:9090/docs/index.html (works so far).

The problem is that none of the try it out buttons worked, which can be used to interact with your REST API using JSON directly. The reason that it did not work is that it did not take the correct base url path to talk to my controllers:
http://localhost:9090/rest/addresses (actual controller location)
http://localhost:9090/addresses (swagger's attempt to talk to the API)

After some research online I found out that I probably better go for the more flexible approach using SwaggerSpringMvcPlugin as documented on https://github.com/martypitt/swagger-springmvc.
This is my swagger configuration class file:
@Configuration
@EnableSwagger
public class MySwaggerConfig {

    private SpringSwaggerConfig springSwaggerConfig;

    @Autowired
    public void setSpringSwaggerConfig(SpringSwaggerConfig springSwaggerConfig) {
        this.springSwaggerConfig = springSwaggerConfig;
    }

    @Bean
    public SwaggerSpringMvcPlugin customImplementation(){
        return new SwaggerSpringMvcPlugin(this.springSwaggerConfig)
                .includePatterns(".*");
    }
}

This is my full spring mvc xml file:

I read somewhere that the No qualifying bean of type org...RequestMappingHandlerMapping trace suggests I might miss mvc:annotation-driven in my XML, but this is not the case.
I have been searching for hours now to find a solution, but failed so far. The fact that in it's basic configuration (using SpringSwaggerConfig) it's working for 90% (besides the try it out button...), makes me not want to give up on swagger just yet. It really seems very cool and is a good way of documenting your API.
So if anyone can help me out on this one, I would be very gratefull. Swagger rocks!
Kind regards,
Bart

A: I was probably stumbling upon the following issue,  "No matching bean was found for auto-wiring" for RequestMappingHandlerMapping: http://forum.spring.io/forum/spring-projects/web/112154-unable-to-autowire-requestmappinghandlermapping-in-controller
In the mean while I have switched to Java based configuration to replace my XML. This solved the autowire issue as well. Hereby my solution for other's reference, which includes changing the apiResourcePrefix and ussing a swagger.properties file for external configuration.
My web.xml file:
<context-param>
    <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
    <param-value>classpath:spring/business.xml</param-value>
</context-param>

<servlet>
    <servlet-name>restServlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
    <init-param>
        <param-name>contextClass</param-name>
        <param-value>org.springframework.web.context.support.AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <init-param>
        <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
        <param-value>be.example.backend.configuration.MvcConfig</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>restServlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/rest/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

My bussiness.xml as root application context:
<context:annotation-config/>
<context:component-scan base-package="be.example.backend"/>
...

My MvcConfig.java as MVC configuration file:
@EnableWebMvc
@ComponentScan(basePackages = {"be.example.backend"})
@Configuration
public class MvcConfig extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {

    @Override
    public void configureMessageConverters(List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> converters) {
        List<MediaType> supportedMediaTypes = new ArrayList<>();
        supportedMediaTypes.add(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON);
        supportedMediaTypes.add(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN);

        MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter converter = new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter();
        converter.setObjectMapper(new HibernateAwareObjectMapper());
        converter.setPrettyPrint(true);
        converter.setSupportedMediaTypes(supportedMediaTypes);
        converters.add(converter);

        super.configureMessageConverters(converters);
    }
}

My SwaggerConfig.java as swagger configuration file:
@EnableWebMvc
@EnableSwagger
@PropertySource("classpath:swagger.properties")
@ComponentScan(basePackages = {"be.example.backend"})
@Configuration
public class SwaggerConfig implements ServletContextAware {

    @Autowired
    private Environment environment;

    private SpringSwaggerConfig springSwaggerConfig;

    private ServletContext servletContext;

    @Autowired
    public void setSpringSwaggerConfig(SpringSwaggerConfig springSwaggerConfig) {
        this.springSwaggerConfig = springSwaggerConfig;
    }

    @Bean
    public SwaggerSpringMvcPlugin customImplementation() {
        RelativeSwaggerPathProvider relativeSwaggerPathProvider = new RelativeSwaggerPathProvider(servletContext);
        relativeSwaggerPathProvider.setApiResourcePrefix(environment.getProperty("swagger.resource_prefix"));
        return new SwaggerSpringMvcPlugin(this.springSwaggerConfig)
                .pathProvider(relativeSwaggerPathProvider);
    }

    @Override
    public void setServletContext(ServletContext servletContext) {
        this.servletContext = servletContext;
    }
}

My swagger.properties external properties file:
swagger.resource_prefix=rest

This solution worked for me and I am now able to enjoy the swagger features through swagger-ui.
Hope others can enjoy it as well!

A: I had exactly same exception
    org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException:
    Error creating bean with name 'mySwaggerConfig': Injection of autowired dependencies failed;
nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire method:
public void be.example.backend.configuration.MySwaggerConfig.setSpringSwaggerConfig
(com.mangofactory.swagger.configuration.SpringSwaggerConfig)

in my test. Root casue was incorrect annotation. My test was annotated with @Integration, rather than with @WebIntegrationTest.
For production code, make sure your @Configuration is annotated with @EnableWebMvc

Q: How to pass arguments to a function in for loop Jinja DJANGo How can I pass an argument to a function in for loop?
I use Django and jinja and I want to somehow pass an argument to my function but I don't know whether it is possible, didn't find any pieces of information online
{% for student in get_students%}

                    User.name
                    {% for colum in get_columns %}
                    {% for grade in colum.get_grade_by_user(student.id) %} <=== like that
                    {{grade.value}}
                    {% endfor %}
                    {% endfor %}

                {% endfor %}

def get_grade_by_user(self, student):
       get_grade = Grade.objects.all().filter(date=self.id, user=student)
       return get_grade

A: You can extend the global namespace by adding a reference to your functions before loading the templates:
from jinja2 import Environment, FileSystemLoader

def my_funct(a, b):
    return a + b

env = Environment(loader=FileSystemLoader('/path/to/templates'))
env.globals['my_funct'] = my_funct


On September, 2010, in culture, economics.
Just returned from a month of restaurants in the US, and that means an expansion of the waistline. I also bought 4 pairs of pants to replace my worn-out slacks for work. I was happy to hold my waist size to that of 3 years ago, but now realize that this too is a sham, perpetrated on all of us by the clothing industry. This from an Esquire article has me running to the bathroom scale (where I've returned to my January weight, erasing all the work of the spring).

Sehwan (, ; also commonly referred to as Sehwan Sharif or Noble Sehwan) is a historic city located in Jamshoro District of Sindh province in Pakistan and on the west bank of the Indus  north-west of Hyderabad. The city is renowned for being home of one of Pakistan's most important Sufi shrines, the Shrine of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar.The city also holds the status of taluka under Jamshoro District. It was previously under Dadu District however, after establishing the Jamshoro District, Sehwan was linked with Jamshoro District.

Owing to the popularity of its Sufi shrine, the terms "Sehwan" and "Qalandar" are often used interchangeably in Pakistan. Sehwan is one of Pakistan's most important spiritual centres, along with other shrines such as the Shrine of Abdullah Shah Ghazi in Karachi, Data Durbar Complex in Lahore, Bari Imam in Noorpur Shehan near Islamabad, and the lustrous tombs of the Suhrawardi Sufis in Multan.

History

Sehwan is probably the most ancient place in Sindh. Some historians say that this town is as ancient as the period of Prophet Shees, son of Adam. Hence it was named as Sheestan, Sewistan and then Sehwan. According to Syed Muhibullah, author of "A brief history of Sind", Sehwan was the name of great grandson of Ham (son of Noah). But there are various other views about the nomenclature of Sehwan as well. William Dalrymple says that the name is derived from Shivistan after Lord Shiva. This place in Sind saw amalgamation of Hinduism and Islam.Notable historian Molai Sheedai writes in his book "Tarikh e Tamadan e Sind" that Sehwan was built by the Sewi Aryas and hence was called Sewistan. Another view is that its name was Sindomana, a name which is well mentioned in Greek literature. Sindhu-mán is Sanskrit word, which means "the possessor (the capital, or Raja) of Sindh, with which Sindhu-vàn is synonymous, the latter may have been softened in common speech to the modern Seh-wan. Sindomana was the capital of King Sambos, who was defeated by Alexander in 326 BC. A large tell called Kafir Qila (castle of the pagans) is located at the centre of the city.

Sehwan was conquered by Muhammad bin Qasim in 711 from son of the King Dahir, and three centuries later by Mahmud of Ghazni in 1026. In all the subsequent dynastic struggles of Sindh, Sehwan continued to feature prominently. It was held successively by the Sumrahs, the Summas, the Arghuns and the Tarkhans. It was the capital of Thatta Kingdom, when an abortive attempt was made by the Mughal emperor Humayun to capture it on his way to Umarkot in 1542, but it finally fell to his son Akbar in 1590s. After the Mughals, it was ruled by Kalhoras and Talpurs. The city is known for its Sufi patron saint Lal Shahbaz Qalandar who lived there in the 13th century.

The Shrine of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors every year. Shrine of Murshid Nadir Ali Shah, a notable spiritual descendant of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar is also located in Sehwan, where large number of people are served free meals round the clock. Another famous place is the inverted city. Manchar Lake, the largest freshwater lake in Pakistan, which is at a short distance from Sehwan Sharif.

Incident

On 16 February 2017, a suicide bomber triggered an explosion at the Shrine of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar, killing at least 83 people and injuring almost 250. The attack occurred during a praying session. The bombing took place at an 800 year old Shrine. Later the ISIS claimed responsibility for this terrorist attack stating that their 'martyr' had detonated a vest at the popular Shia gathering at the shrine.

Superman: Flying to a church near you
Baltimore, Maryland (CNN) – As the new Superman movie takes flight this weekend, filmmakers are hoping the Man of Steel lands not only in theaters, but also in pulpits.
Warner Bros. Studios is aggressively marketing "Man of Steel" to Christian pastors, inviting them to early screenings, creating Father's Day discussion guides and producing special film trailers that focus on the faith-friendly angles of the movie.
The movie studio even asked a theologian to provide sermon notes for pastors who want to preach about Superman on Sunday. Titled "Jesus: The Original Superhero," the notes run nine pages.
"How might the story of Superman awaken our passion for the greatest hero who ever lived and died and rose again?" the sermon notes ask.
(Disclaimer: CNN, like Warner Bros., is owned by Time Warner.)

Internet activist who helped expose Steubenville rape may face jail time
A drunk 16-year-old girl at a party was raped by two high school football players. It was an outrageous case that tarnished the name of the town where it occurred - Steubenville, Ohio.
Especially after images of the attack and social media comments about it went viral.
Many first learned of the rape after a man wearing a Guy Fawkes mask - the international symbol of the hacker group Anonymous - got involved.
He threatened revenge on the football team and the town.
He targeted not only the two teens convicted of rape in March and sentenced to juvenile detention – Trent Mays and Ma'lik Richmond - but also the other players and students.

Soap operas back from the dead, get new life online
Like many characters in the crazy plot lines, soap operas have come back from the dead, resurrected online.
When ABC cancelled "All My Children" at the end of 2011, the show had more than two million viewers.
Now the soap is being made available online through Hulu, iTunes, and The Online Network.
Vincent Irizzary had spent 12 years as Dr. David Hayward on "All My Children" when the show was cancelled by ABC in 2011. Then, in a twist as dramatic as the soap's story lines, the show, and his character, were brought back from the dead.
"I get a phone call saying that we're back on track. And it was like one of those scenes that I've played on soap operas before, where somebody died for three years then you open a door, and there they are standing before you and you're like, 'what the?'" said Irizzary, with a laugh.
There was a time when daytime dramas were an ATM machine for the networks. They were cheap to produce, yet the ratings were huge.

Snowden: The NSA does have your content
U.S. intelligence heads, President Barack Obama, and lawmakers say that domestic spying programs are not actually monitoring the content of Americans' phone calls and e-mails. But former NSA contractor Edward Snowden says they are lying.
Snowden did an online Q and A session with "The Guardian" newspaper Monday. It was a live chat with questions from journalists and the general public on Twitter, where Snowden directly rebutted the criticism against him, and the claims that officials have been making in the wake of his intelligence leaks.
The head of the NSA on Wednesday told Congress that these methods of surveillance - in particular the PRISM program to monitor e-mail communication - have helped prevent dozens of terror events. Specifically, one from 2009.
"[Director of National Intelligence Jame Clapper] said that section 702 collection was critical to the discovery and disruption of a plot to bomb the New York subway system, Zazi case. Is that correct?" Democratic Sen. Patrick Leahy of Vermont asked the director of the NSA on Wednesday.
"That is correct. In fact, not just critical, it was the one that developed the lead on it," replied Gen. Keith Alexander.
Not true, says Snowden. In his online chat, he wrote, "U.S. officials also provide misleading or directly false assertions about the value of these programs, as they did just recently with the Zazi case, which court documents clearly show was not unveiled by PRISM."

Analysis: Obama overseas, poll numbers under water
The president's approval rating has dropped eight percentage points over the past month– leaving him at 45%. It is his lowest rating in more than a year and a half. He can thank scandals from the National Security Agency surveillance leaks, to the continued questions over the Benghazi attack for that dip.
"This administration has gotten pretty good at riding the ebbs and flows of poll numbers," said chief national correspondent for The New York Times Magazine Mark Leibovich. "In the second term it's easier to sort of, not shrug it off, but certainly to ride it out a little bit."


In a choice of colours and with a curvaceous, inviting design, the Dual Wall 1. 5 L Kettle is also generous in features. Love tea ? Adjust the temperature range to suit your infusions: nicely warm for delicate green tea or hot for coarse Assam. The dual wall cavity keeps water hotter for longer and the kettle cooler to the touch. A pop of colour in the kitchen, the 1. 5 L Kettle is always ready for the next conversation. Included in the box: Removable limescale filter.
