Tennis World Tour 2 Review
by Damian Antony Seeto
on September 27th, 2020
TagsBig Ant Studios, Tennis World Tour 2
The PS3 and Xbox 360 era was a great time to be a fan of tennis video games. We got multiple Top Spin and Virtua Tennis games and they were very fun. Top Spin catered to real tennis fans, while the Virtua Tennis series favored those that loved an arcade-style feel.
Sadly, the PS4 and Xbox One generation saw a drought of console released tennis video games. From 2013 until 2017, there were no tennis games released of any kind. For some sad, strange reason, 2K Sports and Sega decided to not release any Top Spin or Virtua Tennis games respectively.
It wasn't until 2018 did we see the first new Tennis games finally get released. The first one to come out of the gate was AO International Tennis from Australian developer, Big Ant Studios. AO International Tennis was kind of a mess at launch, but the game improved with later update patches.
2018 also saw the release of the Tennis World Tour from the new developer Breakpoint. Well, Tennis World Tour came out and was one of the worst tennis games I ever played/reviewed. The game never featured Doubles matches, and the physics were slow and sluggish. I'm kind of embarrassed to admit I paid full price for that game!
Due to the utter failure that was Tennis World Tour, I was very surprised publisher Nacon decided to announce a new game called Tennis World Tour 2. Unlike the first game though, AO Tennis' Big Ant Studios is now the new developer for Tennis World Tour 2.
Big Ant Studios already released AO Tennis 2 earlier this year, and I thought that game was an improvement over the first game. Due to this, I was optimistic that Tennis World Tour 2 wouldn't be as bad as the first Tennis World Tour game from 2018.
Big Ant Studios has actually made Tennis World Tour 2 to feel vastly different from AO Tennis 2. The gameplay physics are different, plus the graphics are better too. Not to mention Tennis World Tour 2 comes with more licensed players including the likes of Roger Federer, Gael Monfils, and more.
Graphically, Tennis World Tour 2 isn't as realistic as NBA 2K or EA Sports UFC, but it's much better than the stiff animations seen in Tennis World Tour. I also feel that the character models look good too as they have sweat and many of them look like their real-life counterparts.
The game also has lots of cool and creative looking courts. The game doesn't have real-world licenses, but I liked the design of the courts in this game. You can also change courts to be hard, clay or grass to suit your playing style.
Another thing I liked about the game is the addition of two legends if you pre-ordered the game. Since I pre-ordered the game, this gave me access to both Marat Safin and Gustavo Kuerten. However, some people are going to be upset that a lot of major stars are still left out of the roster.
Tennis World Tour 2 does not have Novak Djokovic or any of the Williams sisters. John McEnroe appeared as a commentator in Tennis World Tour, but this sequel does not have any commentary whatsoever.
In terms of gameplay, this new game is far more fluid and fast compared to the sluggish feel of its predecessor. There are actually two ways that you can play that cater to both beginners and veterans.
For beginners, they can tap the face buttons to execute a 'safe' shot. This is a simple shot that will guarantee you'll hit the ball on the other side without making an unforced error. It's useful, although it won't help you if you're against a better player.
If you don't tap the buttons, you can hold them instead. Holding the face buttons allows you to do a more powerful shot. You can also use the analog stick to point in the direction you want to strike at.
Holding the buttons is probably the best way to play the game because you can actually hit winners this way. That being said, you are still prone to unforced errors, although it's rare in this game to make too many mistakes.
I will say Tennis World Tour 2 is far easier to play compared to Big Ant's own AO Tennis 2. AO Tennis 2 feels much harder because you have to time your shots more carefully to avoid errors. In Tennis World Tour 2, the game is more generous to the timings of your shots.
The gameplay isn't all perfect though. Playing net still feels stiff, and I cannot seem to get sharp angles in this game either. If you played the first Tennis World Tour, Tennis World Tour 2 is still miles better than that game!
One change in this game though is the use of 'skill cards'. Skill cards are basically boosts you can get to make your match easier. This includes stamina boosts or even making your shots more effective.
However, I felt the skill cards didn't really do their job well. You won't probably notice too many changes if you buy them. Thankfully, you can only buy them using the in-game currency. This is not a legit pay-to-win game-like mobile titles.
Tennis World Tour 2 also sees Doubles matches. This is actually great considering the first game didn't have Doubles of any kind! Doubles matches are fun, although you have to be good at volleys to win them.
As for multiplayer, Tennis World Tour 2 still has an issue with its camera. If you play offline multiplayer, Player 2 is ALWAYS positioned at the top of the court. You don't swap sides as you should in other tennis games.
As of this moment, this issue has not been addressed yet. AO Tennis in 2018 had the same issue, but it was eventually fixed with a future update patch. Hopefully, Big Ant Studios listens to fan feedback again.
Speaking of multiplayer, online play still needs improvements as well. Lag continues to be an issue and it's not fun playing the game like this. This is something I'm sure that will improve in the coming weeks though.
Outside of multiplayer, you can dive into the game's long Career mode. This mode is where you play as a rookie in hopes of becoming the best tennis player in the world.
There's not much else to say about Career mode other than you can earn money and stats to improve your player and their equipment. It's quite a long Career mode, so players will have to play for hours before they can be number 1!
The Career mode also lacks the story mode and voice-overs that appear in 2K Sports and EA Sports video games. It can get a little boring, but it's a mode that will satisfy hardcore fans of tennis.
Tennis World Tour 2 – Verdict
Overall, Tennis World Tour 2 is far better than the 2018's Tennis World Tour. Big Ant Studios improved on the gameplay, and the character models actually look decent here. That said, the game is still not as polished as Top Spin or Virtua Tennis. It's still worth playing though if you are a hardcore fan of the tennis sport.
Improved graphics
Better gameplay to first game
Long and and engaging career mode
Lag is still an issue
2 player camera needs fixing
Still not as good as Top Spin or Virtua Tennis

For a few years Chase issued a co-branded Fairmont Visa Card. It was a bit more niche than some of their other hotel card offerings, like The World of Hyatt Credit Card, IHG® Rewards Club Premier Credit Card, Marriott Rewards® Premier Credit Card, etc. However, it's a card that many liked, and it had a great welcome bonus and generous ongoing perks.
Unfortunately they stopped accepting new applications for the card earlier this year. I'm not sure why exactly the card was discontinued. Perhaps it wasn't popular enough for it to make sense, or perhaps it had to do with Accor's acquisition of Fairmont.
While Chase stopped accepting new applications for the card, at the time there wasn't yet any news about what would happen to existing cardmembers.
Well, Chase has now sent out a letter to those with the Fairmont Card, informing them that the card is being discontinued as of August 15, 2017, and will automatically be converted into the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card. Members should receive their new card within 6-8 weeks of August 15, and when they do, the card number will remain the same.
Furthermore, unredeemed points earned through the card will be converted into Chase Ultimate Rewards points, which I'd actually consider to be a net positive.
The card has offered an annual free night certificate when you spend $12,000 on the card, so that will be honored through August, but obviously that benefit will be discontinued when the card is converted. For those who haven't had the card for an entire year, you can earn a free night certificate by spending at least $6,000 by August 14.
The potentially good news here is that if you already have the Chase Sapphire Preferred, you should eventually be able to convert this card into another Chase card, like the Chase Freedom® Card or Chase Freedom Unlimited®. These are great no annual fee cards that can help you maximize the number of Ultimate Rewards points you earn. Given that they're subjected to Chase's 5/24 rule, these are cards that some might not otherwise be eligible for.
To those with the Fairmont Visa Card, how do you feel about this change?
This is exciting, because I'm over 5/24 and was looking at getting the Freedom.
Wait so if we've had it for more than a year but it won't be a year for your anniversary can't you still get the free night at 6k? Was debating trying to get 6k on this to get the free night. I think the worst part of this is losing the status with Fairmont. I loved the 3rd night free cert, suite upgrade, and $50 dining credit each year. Book 4 nights with the Prestige, extend it to a 5th night by adding the 3rd night free cert, and then upgrade the entire thing to a suite using the suite cert. It was a fantastic deal.
It is sad , we are allowing business to band together and monopolize the industry.
We see it in fares, rates , even credit card points value.
Maybe it is time for the government to break the giants once again, and allow smaller companies to enter the field and compete.
The KeaLani is great! Adult pool!
Hmmm … already have a Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card. I hope they provide a simple way for me to add the credit line of the Fairmont Card to my existing Sapphire card and the Fairmont points to my existing Ultimate Rewards account.
Will the conversion of Fairmont points to Ultimate Rewards points will be better than 1:1? I have no reason to expect it would be, but can always hope.
There are a few assumptions here. So far it seems that this letter has only been sent to cardholders who have had the card for over a year. I received the card in January and have not received the letter. With government regulation it may not be legal for Chase to product change within the first 12 months. We will see!
If you read the actual letter that was posted on myFICO, it says that if you have spent $12k by August 14 then you get a free night valid for 1-year. It then says that if you didn't get the full 12-months in your current cardmember year then you only have to spend $6k before August 14. It does not say first year.
Unless those of us who got the card in January right before the links were completely pulled get this same letter, then our terms might be different as to when the product change will occur and how we qualify for the free anniversary night.
Also just got the card in January and no letter yet in today's mail.
I have the Fairmont Card but not the Sapphire Preferred. I am assuming that if they convert me, I won't get the sign up bonus that I would get with a future Sapphire Preferred application. So does that mean I should cancel the Fairmont card now so I don't get involuntarily converted?
RIP Fairmont card. With the free nights and the benefits of status, we were paid to stay in Maui for 4 nights. Doesn't get much sweeter than that.
We now need a good replacement card for free nights at the Fairmont properties.
I have a Sapphire Reserve. I also have a Chase Freedom card. What's the deal with the Freedom unlimited? I don't want the Sapphire Preferred without getting the bonus.
I really like the Fairmont Card. Just went to Barbados and stayed 9 nights at the Fairmont Pavilion. What a fantastic place. Unbelievable beach. I'm going to Singapore in the fall. I had plans for this card. Really disappointed. The Sapphire Preferred is nowhere as good as the the Reserve. I'll have at least 22,000 Fairmont rewards by August; probably will have to do something so I can keep those points, but don't really want the Sapphire Reserve without the bonus points.
Where's that Accor credit card? Fairmont got bought out by them; perhaps they have something planned for 2018? Meh. I really like the Fairmont hotels.
Oh, and that Fairmont in Maui, the Kai Lani; stayed there last year and that was also awesome. Not as intimate as the Barbados hotel, but loved the Maui property.
I got my fairmont card in Jan 2017 and I received the same letter with the same language from Chase.
Accor does not like credit cards with tha accor name on it.
Accor has closed all the credit card in all markets.
It would be great to redeem the certificate at their best properties like the Savoy London.
In my view the Fairmont card was a great value. A night at the Plaza or the Savoy could easily be worth a thousand or more dollars. It just enhanced the perks of my platinum status which I have had for years. When the President's Club was initiated the benefits included a suite on every stay, $25 dining credit, free drink, health club, a welcome amenity , AAdvantage miles and shoe shine service. Periodically they would do promotions for miles, a bathrobe or dining credit for referrals and there was no limit on the referrals. Those perks were incredible.

Cloud Computing in the Public Sector
admin July 4, 2014 April 6, 2019 Post in Blog
In our previous post Cloud computing in 2013, we have clearly established that the cloud is gaining popularity in the business world. This brings us to the next question: What about the Public sector? How far along is cloud adoption in governments around the world? Unsurprisingly, cloud computing has been implemented in various countries since 2009. Some of the leading countries are the United States of America, Japan, and United Kingdom.
The CIO Council report states that in September 2009, the US government announced the Federal Government's Cloud Computing Initiative, aiming to greatly reduce waste, increase efficiency, and lower operating costs. At the same time, Market Research Media also reported that the U.S. government launched Apps.gov, a portal dedicated to cloud computing applications for government agencies. Vivek Kundra, U.S. Chief Information Officer described it as "an online storefront for federal agencies to quickly browse and purchase cloud-based IT services, for productivity, collaboration, and efficiency." He further stated that cloud computing is the next generation of IT in which data and applications will be housed centrally and accessible anywhere and anytime by various devices.
Meanwhile, according to an article by the IEEE Computer Society and cloudbok.net, Japan announced its Kasumigaseki Cloud in May 2009, which aims to greatly reduce cost while improving integration and collaboration amongst its various ministries. It is scheduled to be completed by 2015. The name Kasumigaseki (as explained in this article) is the name of an area where most government buildings are located in Tokyo, but the literal meaning of kasumigaseki is "fog's gate".
In early 2010, the UK government introduced the G-cloud government infrastructure, an online catalogue containing details of cloud services available for the UK public sector, much like the U.S. Apps.gov website. The G-cloud official site also listed reducing costs and increasing flexibility as some of its aims in adopting the cloud technology.
Today, there are countless research papers and reports on various countries' government adoption of cloud computing. KPMG and Frost & Sullivan both wrote more in-depth reports around this topic. Although the cloud is not yet a dominating standard, most developed countries with sufficient infrastructure are at some level of cloud adoption while formulating their long-term national strategy. Thus, cloud computing has established itself as the next logical step in both the public and private sector of the IT industry.

The week in worry
Gonorrhea is dangerously close to being incurable
By Derek de Koff January 15, 2017 at 11:01am · 12 comments
Once again, the number of reported gonorrhea infections in Sweden has increased, just as experts maintain that a strain could soon become incurable.
Despite various safe sex campaigns (and Swedish doctors hammering home how prevalent infections have become), statistics from Sweden's Public Heath Agency demonstrate that by November 2016, 1,625 cases were reported — up from 1,535 the prior year.
The number of infections have more than doubled in the decades between 1995 and 2015.
"There are several factors which have contributed to the growth," Public Health Agency's Elin Jacobsson tells The Local.
"One of them is that more cases are detected now because access to tests has increased since ordering them online was made possible."
Related: Why Are STDs Running Rampant In The Deep South?
"Gonorrhea has lived in the shadow of chlamydia somewhat, which is the most common STD in Sweden, but since a few years back both chlamydia and gonorrhea can be detected by the same test."
She's worried awareness about the disease may still be too low.
"The number of cases of gonorrhea reported was generally low for a long time, which means that awareness about the infection could be low," she explains. "It's very important that people who have unprotected sex are offered tests and discussions about condom use.
She adds:
Condom usage is too low in Sweden: it has dropped since the 80s and 90s when the fear of HIV was high. Chlamydia is not perceived as similarly serious, and as a result of that the incentive to use condoms isn't as high. We also know that the number of sexual partners during a lifetime has increased and people don't always make a rational risk assessment."
The real concern is that antibiotic treatments could stop working altogether, leading to incurable strains of gonorrhea.
"The increase is worrying because it could become incurable as multi-resistant bacteria grows," she says. "For one kind of gonorrhea in particular there is currently only one kind of antibiotic which can cure it."
"People are actively looking for new antibiotics, but we could end up in a situation where the cure which exists stops working."

How is this different then say the 70s when no one wore condoms? Interesting how this is now such a concern.
orrine
@ChrisK: Read the article. It's a conceren because incurable strains of different bacteria started to appear only recently. In the 70s we were a couple of generation of antibiotics ahead of bacteria resistance.
There's the reason penicillin is not a main way to treat infections anymore

@ChrisK: different "then". do you mean different "than"? and @orrine: I have a conceren about your spelling.

@MediaGuy:
" different "then". do you mean different "than"? and @orrine: I have a conceren about your spelling."
Actually, things are different "from," not different "than."
Wow people on this site must be really bored and have nothing better to do if they are going to sit around pointing out other peoples spelling and grammar mistakes while taking a superior tone. Life's to short guys.
@Jack Meoff: "too short"
@Joe: LOL Cheeky bastard.

Different from and different than are both acceptable. Idiocy is not.
rmarin776
I've seen this a number of times. But the articles never go on to explain what would be the consequences of having untreatable gonorrhea. I think this is important information.
inbama
@rmarin776:
It's really not pretty:
> An inflammation of the prostate gland (prostatitis).
> Disseminated gonococcal infection (DGI) when the gonorrhea infection spreads to sites other than the genitals, such as the joints, skin, heart, or blood. Complications of DGI include:
Skin infection (cellulitis).
An infection in the bloodstream (sepsis).
Inflammation of a joint (arthritis). It most often affects the knees and hands.
An infection and inflammation of the heart valves and the chambers of the heart (endocarditis).
An infection of the fluid and tissues that surround the brain and spinal cord (meningitis).
January 16, 2017 at 4:01am
The widespread use of antibiotics in our food chain seems to be why gonorrhea is mutating into drug resistant strains. Though we should be practicing safer sex to avoid contracting any STI, we also should demand that agricultural practices become safer as well.
there are also more people today who are allergic to certain types of antibiotics, further limiting their treatment options.

Q: Play framework web application: when to use Akka? I'm transitioning from Java to Scala, and started using Play as application server. My Java legacy application (the one I'm trying to replace) is built on three layers: servlets, session beans and entity beans. I read that Akka actors would replace session beans, is that accurate? When is it appropriate to use Akka actors in a Play web application?

A: I don't think there is any thumb rule like convert Session Beans / Entity Beans to actors.
You may need to look at your requirements. It's worth considering what the actor model is used for: the actor model is

*

*a concurrency model that avoids concurrent access to mutable state

*using asynchronous communications mechanisms to provide concurrency

This is valuable because using shared state from multiple threads gets really hard, especially when there are relationships among different components of the shared state that must be kept synchronized.
However, if you have domain components in which:
You don't allow concurrency, OR
You don't allow mutable state (as in functional programming), OR
You must rely on some synchronous communications mechanism,
then the actor model will not provide much (if any) benefit.
Take a look at this URL if you haven't already http://www.infoq.com/news/2014/02/akka-ejbs-concurrency

A: To answer the second part of the question:

When is it appropriate to use Akka actors in a Play web application?

Scala is not just syntactical sugared Java but meant to write Functional Programming(FP). Scala makes writing functional code easier and more obvious. When you do this all your methods become functions(no state change is held).
From here when you do want to hold global state, you encapsulate it within an Actor and interact with it only via a messaging queue.. and therefore don't have to concern yourself with threading logic.
A great course to get started with this is https://www.coursera.org/course/progfun
A great book to get started with Scala is:
Scala for the Impatient by Cay S. Horstmann

The Institute for Co-operative Education celebrates a year of student accomplishment and employer support
By Tom Peacock
It was a celebration of students who go beyond their studies to gain experience at companies that range from software giants to music instrument innovators.
Concordia's Institute for Co-operative Education hosted its yearly Co-op Awards of Recognition Event (CARE) in the atrium of the John Molson School of Business (MB) Building on May 19.
"This is an opportunity to express our gratitude to our students and admire the accomplishments they've been able to achieve over the last year," said Gerry Hughes, the institute's director, before handing out more than $10,000 in prizes, awards and scholarships.
Hughes went on to thank the many Co-op employers on hand, as well as Concordia staff, faculty and alumni, for playing a key role in the institute's success and continued growth.
Students on the move
Attendees were greeted by the Co-op Showcase, featuring 25 of the top senior students. They stood beside posters bearing details about their work terms and what they had gained from their various on-the-job experiences.
Megan Brown, who graduated from Concordia's computer science program last fall, spent her final work term at Microsoft in Redmond, Washington, where she developed an application for a remote-controlled car that can be operated using any Windows 10 device.
Brown has accepted a job with the software behemoth, and she's relocating to Washington in a few weeks.
Computer engineering student Vincent Bilodeau spent his last work term at the Fender Musical Instruments Corporation in Scottsdale, Arizona, optimizing audio effects and performing hardware performance profiling. "It's pretty cool, you get to work on something, then play guitar, work on it a little more, then play some more guitar," he said, smiling.
Bilodeau has a few courses left before he graduates, but he signed a contract for freelance work with Fender this summer, and he's hopeful about his prospects for a future with the company.
Accountancy student Nicholas Chin recently completed a work term at the professional services company KPMG where he helped corporate executives with their personal tax returns. He's found his passion, he said. But before looking for his first job after he graduates this spring, he's going to take some time off to travel. The ticket to Italy's already booked.
This year, journalism undergraduate Casandra De Masi (far left) and electrical engineering student Nicholas Boudreau (second from left) shared the Alexandre Quintal Co-op Student of the Year Award.
Co-op's $8 million contribution
Hughes provided some figures to illustrate the program's growth and diversity: Currently there are more than 40 Co-op programs at Concordia, including three new ones this year, in mathematical and computational finance, biology and aerospace engineering.
Close to 1,800 students are enrolled as Co-op members, and they secured 1,400 work placements over the past year. On an annual basis, students in the program earn in the neighbourhood of $8 million. "This helps them with their education, but it also helps the local economy," Hughes said.
A vital bridge
Catherine Bolton, Concordia's vice-provost for teaching and learning, compared Co-op to a bridge, connecting the classroom to the workplace. "It results in an increase of possibilities — to communicate, to meet, to work together and to learn from each other," she said. "This bridge partnership is vital to us, not only at the Co-op institute but also at Concordia."
Bolton underlined the role Co-op's experiential learning opportunities play in Concordia's new strategic directions.
"Embrace the city, embrace the world speaks to the idea that Concordians can use their talents, expertise and energy to affect social change and to give back to the community that we live in, whether it's locally or globally," Bolton said. "It is very clear that Co-op students and Co-op employers have long been helping us to achieve this goal."
Co-op's 'win-win'
Co-op employer Angela D'Angelo, vice-president of training and client experience at National Bank Financial, highlighted the benefits of hiring Co-op students. "It's win-win. It's a two-way street," she said. "You have no idea what these millennials can bring to your business, to your life and to your development."
This year, journalism undergraduate Casandra De Masi and electrical engineering student Nicholas Boudreau shared the Alexandre Quintal Co-op Student of the Year Award.
De Masi said being a part of Co-op allowed her to face her fears and anxieties head on and develop the confidence needed to decide her career direction. "I've learned that it's important not to let people place you in a labelled box and tell you that that's what you have to be in life," she said. "I'll kick the box open and politely say, 'No, thank you.'"
Boudreau praised Co-op for allowing students to gain invaluable experience while working for employers who take a vested interest in developing their interns. "I really experienced this working on flight simulators and antennas for satellites. It was really remarkable to work with so many employers who would just listen, and be there when you needed help," he said.
"I learned to think a little less like a student and a little more like an engineer, and it reflected in the way that I came back to school."

The Republic of Chad is a landlocked country in Northern Central Africa named after the great freshwater lake on its Western border. It is a huge country in terms of land area (the fifth largest in Africa) but with a relatively small population of some 14 million.
It was part of French Equatorial Africa until 1960 when the country declared independence from France. The capital city is N'Djamena and French and Arabic are the official languages. Confusingly, Chad's flag of vertical blue, yellow and red stripes is identical to that of Rumania, a source of low level diplomatic tension unlikely to be resolved any time soon.
Chad has experienced vast numbers of refugees flooding across its border with Sudan since 2003 as a result of the Darfur conflict. More recently there have been further waves of refugees crossing its Western border fleeing civil war in the Central African Republic.
The UNHCR publishes copious detailed reports of its work with refugees in Chad that are probably not as widely read as they should be. Looking at these reports, I was struck by the pictures of refugees eking out a meagre living selling street food. My Chadian breakfast took inspiration from these resilient street food vendors and comprised sweet millet fritters plus the ubiquitous "jus de fruit" which is in fact a simple mango smoothie. The helpful Chad information website where I found both recipes says that many small businesses have started up throughout Chad based on selling this one popular drink.
I had to abandon the deep fat fryer and ended up shaping my millet dough into shortbread-style fingers before oven baking. Perhaps these would have turned out better if I'd been able to use freshly ground local millet flour as the recipe specifies rather than a bag of Bob's Red Mill US grown millet flour.
It's also possible that my proportions were wrong as I used US cups i.e. 8 fl oz measures whereas the measure used in the original recipe was a "verre" i.e. a glass. Who knows what that might be but I suspect it may be smaller than 8 fl oz.
At least the mango smoothie turned out well – I'd happily drink this for breakfast anytime and the addition of the powdered cardamom adds an extra flavour dimension.
. Peel and cut up the mango and put the fruit chunks into a mixer.
Blend the mango in the mixer.
Add the milk, sugar and cardamom to the mixer and blend well.
Mix the millet and wheat flours together. Heat the cup of vegetable oil to hand-hot and pour it over the flour mixture. Mix roughly. Whisk together lightly with a fork the sugar and egg and pour over the dough. Knead the dough for 5 minutes until it becomes firm and smooth.
Roll the dough to a thickness of 5 millimetres on a lightly floured board and cut into ribbons.
Fry to a golden brown in the peanut oil at about 150 degrees C. Drain the fritters on kitchen paper and serve hot, warm or cold.

GIC-backed Bandhan Bank's Indian IPO to raise up to 44.73b rupees
Thu, Mar 08, 2018 - 12:50 PM
[HONG KONG] Bandhan Bank Ltd, the first Indian microfinance lender to get a banking permit, has set the price range for its initial public offering, which could raise as much as 44.73 billion rupees (S$904.6 million).
The lender, which is backed by Singapore sovereign fund GIC Pte, is offering shares at 370 rupees to 375 rupees apiece, according to terms for the deal obtained by Bloomberg. Pricing the offering at the top of the range would value the lender at 447.3 billion rupees. Bidding for the shares will open on March 15 and close four days later, the terms show.
Bandhan Bank, led by chief executive officer Chandra Shekhar Ghosh, had a net interest margin of 10 per cent for the six months ended Sept 30, a preliminary prospectus shows. The margin is the highest among lenders in the South Asian nation, according to Bloomberg-compiled data. Its net bad-loan ratio was 0.76 per cent at the end of the same six-month period.
Funds raised from the sale will be used to bolster the lender's capital adequacy ratio, the terms show.
The Kolkata-based bank was started as a microfinance firm in 2001 and converted to a bank in 2015 as India approved new licences in an effort to tap rural savings and improve access to credit.

Wanted to take a min to show you what some of the tweaks you can make in training can do to effect results.
This is an athlete that is performing at a high level in both bike and run but the principals could be applied for many levels. Too often athletes train every zone too hard. It's easy to understand the reason and logic behind why they do that. They assume if they work really hard they should get results, and they do! Sometimes though results that they didn't want.
Last year with this athlete we spent a lot of time building strength and really pushing their ability to hold higher wattage for longer periods of time. The issue though is we wanted to raise high end output this year to a new level. We decided to take a risk and significantly back off the intensity on the longer days trying to save energy for the shorter days. It seems to be working perfectly!


Chris Highland writes about the history of Sojourner Truth and her ministry.
Late on a warm summer evening I switched off the screens and heard water. Was there water running in the house? Was it rain? I walked around the house, head cocked to the side, listening. That had to be water, but it sounded like a waterfall.
Opening the front door I knew immediately it wasn't water but a field and forest full of crickets in full chorus. I've heard crickets, but nothing like this.
We never know what we'll hear when we listen more closely, when we investigate, to possibly hear what we've never heard before. An ancient instinct seems to switch on, and this time the instinct of insects streamed straight into my senses.
There are voices in many fields.
In 1850 a short but significant book appeared, "written" by an illiterate former slave. It was titled "Narrative of Sojourner Truth" and contained stories from the life of Isabella Baumfree, who later changed her "slave name" to Truth. When she set out on a pilgrimage in 1843 — to preach her own brand of the gospel — she chose "Sojourner" to show her commitment to being a traveler for truth.
As the "Narrative" (actually written by Olive Gilbert) states, she "[took] her freedom into her own hands," walking away from her upstate New York owner in 1827. With her infant child in her arms, she made her way to the home of a kindly Dutch couple, who promptly bought her from the pursuing slave owner and then said her master was the same as theirs (God, that is). She was essentially a free woman.
Sojourner had an amazing, often tragic, life, yet she was known as a profound speaker and singer with a "naturally powerful mind." Her confident, fearless presence could calm crowds, even hecklers.
There is no question Sojourner Truth was a person of deep, abiding faith. She felt that she could speak with God directly. Because of that independent mind, she challenged the revival preachers and biblical "authorities" wherever she went.
I imagine there are a few lessons here for religion teachers.
This courageous woman who endured slavery, the selling off of her children and dangers on the road had the gumption to stand up to the "godly professionals," the crowds and even to face an angry God, because she knew she stood for the right and the good.
This great woman left a legacy of liberation in mind and body.
Sojourner Truth was unafraid to stay and stand the fire.


Recently, Dr. James E. Vogel was featured in the September 2013 edition of Plastic Surgery Practice, a monthly publication featuring news and information for plastic and aesthetic surgery professionals. In an article titled, "Breaking Bald," Dr. Vogel was asked to discuss the topic of hair transplant revision. Plastic Surgery Practice selected Dr. Vogel as an expert for this piece due to his extensive experience with both initial and revisional hair transplants. In the article, he explains many men who had hair transplants when they were younger are now experiencing progressive hair loss, which makes the unattractive "pluggy" appearance of transplants from the late 1980's and early 1990's even more obvious. These patients are often left upset and confused, unsure of what they can do to fix the problem. A procedure that was intended to improve their appearance and confidence is now causing feelings of insecurity for many of them. Dr. Vogel explains how he approaches these patients and what can be done to restore their appearance and self-confidence, as well as what important advancements have been made to improve hair transplants over the years. Read the article in its entirety here, or download the digital interactive edition of the periodical at PlasticSurgeryPractice.com.

'Smoke, Drink and Eat as Much Red Meat' as You Want, Says Norway's Health Minister
By Tom O'Connor On 5/7/19 at 1:00 PM EDT

World Norway Health Lifestyle Diet
Norway's new head of health shared some interesting words of advice in her first days in office, exhibiting a more free-spirited approach to her position than many of her predecessors.
Elderly and Public Health Minister Sylvi Listhaug, deputy leader of the center-right Progress Party, told the official Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (NRK) that she did not "plan to be the moral police, and will not tell people how to live their lives." Rather, she intends "to help people get information that forms the basis for making choices."
Listhaug spoke with the outlet over lunch and when the interviewer observed she was eating what looked like red meat—a food choice linked to a higher risk of harmful health conditions such as cancer and heart disease—the incumbent hinted at the direction of her future policies.
"I mean, I believe people should be allowed to smoke, drink and eat as much red meat as they want," Listhaug told NRK. "The authorities may like to inform, but people already know pretty well what is healthy and what isn't. It isn't a political task to tell people what they should and shouldn't do."

Listhaug said she did not expect to tighten the country's smoking laws, which bans smoking in all indoor public areas, though she sought to prevent more young people from starting and encourage more older people to quit. Still, as an "occasional" smoker herself, she expressed sympathy, saying smokers "feel like a pariah" under such strict laws, as if "they have to hide away, and I think that's stupid.
"Although smoking is not good, because it is harmful, older people have to decide for themselves what they do," Listhaug told NRK. "The only thing we as governments are to do is to provide information so that people can make informed choices."
Listhaug's views have already stirred controversy within the Nordic nation. In a statement carried by Norway's ABC News, Norwegian Cancer Society Secretary General Anne Lise Ryel called for the Progress Party second-in-command's new role to "be transferred to someone who is more committed to and understands the importance of public health work."
In direct response to the politician's comments on smoking, drinking and eating red meat, Ryel said her group was "both disappointed and a little surprised that Sylvi Listhaug has stated as such because the role of public health minister is to work with the risk of illness and to ensure that people can live the best possible life with the best possible health."
Listhaug has previously served as the minister of agriculture and food, minister of immigration and integration and, most recently, the minister of justice. She resigned from this latest role last March amid widespread backlash after claiming on Facebook that the center-left Labor Party "cares more about the rights of terrorists than national security" due to their refusal to back her call to withdraw Norwegian citizenship for those deemed a threat to national security.
Last year, the U.K.-based Legatum Institute placed Norway number one on its annual index ranking national prosperity based on nine pillars: the economy, education, entrepreneurship and opportunity, governance, health, personal freedom, safety and security, social capital and natural environment. The U.S. took 17th place overall.
Norway also managed to secure a spot a top 10 spot in the 2019 edition of the Bloomberg Healthiest Country Index, which placed the Scandinavian state at number 9, and the U.S. at 35.
Update (05/08/19, 9:40 a.m.): The headline of this article has been updated to more accurately reflect Sylvi Listhaug's comments.

Q: Run `sass --watch` within SublimeText I've been working on a way to speed up my workflow with SublimeText2 and Sass.
I was looking for a way to have ST2 compile my SASS when I save. In looking how to do this, I came across this package: https://github.com/bnlucas/SassBuilder
In execution, it is exactly what I wanted, but it does not compile SASS like I hoped (doesn't include partials support).
So after more research I found a build package that works for me:
{

  "cmd": ["sass --watch 'index.scss':'index.css'", "--stop-on-error", "--no-cache"],
    "line_regex": "Line ([0-9]+):",

    "osx":
    {
        "path": "/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
    },

    "windows":
    {
        "shell": "true"
    }

}

This is similar to running the following command in a cmd prompt with Ruby:
sass --watch index.scss:index.css --stop-on-error --no-cache

So I run this build system and it watches my index.scss just fine. Any changes made to any of the .scss files in that folder and it updates the .index.css file. All of the standard messages from Sass are displayed in ST's console.
My issue is I know that is not what ST's build systems are for. Ideally, they would be used to build with a set of tools multiple times in a coding session.
My question is: How can I use ST2 to launch a sass --watch and have it run in the background? Is there some sort of command/key binding I could set to run the build's cmd line ("cmd": ["sass --watch 'index.scss':'index.css'", "--stop-on-error", "--no-cache"])?

A: Check out the SublimeOnSaveBuild plugin, available through Package Control. Since you already have a working build system, all you need to do is configure the plugin to point to your .sublime-build file, modify the file endings if you want, and you should be all set.
Good luck!

I think it's about time we gave a massive shout-out to the Swedes. Why, you ask? They brought us ABBA, Alexander Skarsgård (the hottie from True Blood), one of my favourite books of all-time (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) and the most elegant, classic timepieces I have ever laid my critical eyes on - Daniel Wellington watches. I get it, the appeal of the watch today is that it's an eye-catching accessory rather than a necessary time tool, but that's quite alright with me. I'd be tempted to save on petrol and run to work for one of these preppy beauties … and I'm not even winding you up!
It all began when FilipTysander packed his bags, hopped on a plane and set off on an adventure half way across the world. It was during this time that he met a fascinating gentleman with impeccable style from the British Isles – he was suave, laid-back and unpretentious … and he wore his watches on old weathered Nato straps. You have one guess what his name was … yip, Daniel Wellington! Daniel Wellington's effortless style was the guiding inspiration to the watch brand. Someone give these men a Bells!
You might have noticed by now that I have a thing for Scandinavian design – modern, yet functional with minimalistic, clean lines. If you're on the lookout for a watch that will keep you fashionably on time with superb craftsmanship, you're going to love Daniel Wellington just as much as I do.
So what's all the hoo-ha about? Where do I even begin … it could have a little something to do with Japanese Citizen Miyota movement, the surgical grade stainless steel cases, the Italian leather or playful Natowatch straps. One thing you should know about me is that I'm not clumsy … the table and chairs just get in the way - which is why I love the scratch resistant, hardened mineral crystal glass. The uptick? The elegant, slim cases that comes in rose gold and silver. Swoon! One of my favourite features about these watches is that all the straps are interchangeable – and it's so easy, you can do it yourself with the pin that comes with your watch. All Daniel Wellington watches come with a two-year international warranty that covers the movement and any manufacturing defects.
One lucky Darling stands the chance to win a unisex 36mm St Mawes rose gold watch and an extra Glasgow strap to the value of R3000 (Check out pictures of this fabulous prize below!).
To enter all you need to do is like and share the link of this Facebook post (don't forget to tag Joburg's Darling) and then answer this easy questions - Name any store in Gauteng that stocks Daniel Wellington watches. Hint: go to www.danielwellington.com and click on 'stores'. Last step - send an email to editorial@velocitymedia.co.za with your full name and contact number (subject line: Daniel Wellington Competition). We will notify the winner by telephone and email. Competition ends Thursday 26 March 2015 at 12:00.

We also have 3 → 4 to be isentropic, so T 3 /T 4 = ( P 3 /P 4 ) ( k − 1) /k . But P 2 = P 3 and P 1 = P 4 . So T 2 T 1 = T 3 T 4 , (10.83) T 4 T 1 = T 3 T 2 . (10.84) So η = 1 − T 1 T 2 , (10.85) = 1 − 1 parenleftBig P 2 P 1 parenrightBig k - 1 k . (10.86) A plot of η versus the pressure ratio P 2 /P 1 for k = 7 / 5 is plotted in Fig. 10.14. As the pressure ratio, P 2 /P 1 rises, the thermal efficiency increases for the Brayton cycle. It still is much less that unity for P 2 /P 1 = 20. To approach unity, very high pressure ratios are needed; η = 0 . 9 requires P 2 /P 1 ∼ 3200. Note in terms of temperature, the efficiency looks like that for a Carnot cycle, but it is not. The highest temperature in the Brayton cycle is T 3 , so the equivalent Carnot efficiency would be 1 − T 1 /T 3 . Example 10.4 Consider a CPIG air standard Brayton cycle with fixed inlet conditions P 1 and T 1 . We also fix the maximum temperature as the metallurgical limit of the turbine blades, T max . Find the pressure ratio which maximizes the net work. Then find the pressure ratio which maximizes the thermal efficiency. We have T 2 = T 1 parenleftbigg P 2 P 1 parenrightbigg k − 1 k , T 3 = T max , T 4 = T 3 parenleftbigg P 4 P 3 parenrightbigg k − 1 k . (10.87) CC BY-NC-ND. 2011, J. M. Powers.

(10.88) Let us let the modified pressure ratio θ be defined such that θ ≡ parenleftbigg P 2 P 1 parenrightbigg k − 1 k . (10.89) Really θ is the temperature ratio, T 2 /T 1 . When the pressure ratio goes up, the temperature ratio goes up. Now the net work is w net = ( h 3 − h 4 ) − ( h 2 − h 1 ) , (10.90) = c P ( T 3 − T 4 − T 2 + T 1 ) , (10.91) = c P ( T max − T max θ − 1 − T 1 θ + T 1 ) , (10.92) = c P T 1 parenleftbigg T max T 1 − T max T 1 θ − 1 − θ + 1 parenrightbigg . (10.93) To find the maximum w net we take dw net /dθ and set to zero: dw net dθ = c P T 1 parenleftbigg T max T 1 θ − 2 − 1 parenrightbigg , (10.94) 0 = c P T 1 parenleftbigg T max T 1 θ − 2 − 1 parenrightbigg , (10.95) θ = ± radicalbigg T max T 1 .

298 CHAPTER 10. CYCLES We take the positive root, since a negative pressure ratio does not make sense: θ = radicalbigg T max T 1 . (10.97) The second derivative tells us whether our critical point is a maximum or a minimum. d 2 w net dθ 2 = − 2 c P T max θ − 3 . (10.98) When θ > 0, d 2 w net /dθ 2 < 0, so we have found a maximum of w net .

Q: A problem with indexing (see also appearing instead of see) Hello I would like to add some terms that mean the same thing in the index of my thesis. For example "vector space" and "linear space". I wish this to appear as "vector space, see linear space". I'm using amsbook and for such an example I'm writing \index{vector space|see{linear space}}. However, it keeps on coming up as "see also" instead of "see". I don't know if this is a common problem but I couldn't find a solution anywhere on the web. Here's the code I'm using, without any chapter files - it still runs.

A: The amsbook class has a slight different way of specifiying 'see' entries in the index. Here are the relevant lines
1314 \newcommand*\seeonlyname{see}
1315 \newcommand*\seename{see also}
1316 \newcommand*\alsoname{see also}
1317 \newcommand*\seeonly[2]{\emph{\seeonlyname} #1}
1318 \newcommand*\see[2]{\emph{\seename} #1}
1319 \newcommand*\seealso[2]{\emph{\alsoname} #1}

According to Barbara Beeton the definition of \seename was recognized as wrong when it was too late for changing it. Therefore the AMS classes added \seeonly.
So, if you have to submit the document to AMS, it's better to use
\index{Hello|seeonly{Hi}}

because a \renewcommand{\seename}{see} might be rejected by the editorial staff. For your personal use,
\renewcommand{\seename}{see}

is perfectly fine.

A: Put this line into the preamble.
\renewcommand*{\seename}{see}


What if God is just the Sun?
What if Sun doesn't Sea us?
What brings the Sun to the See?
Would there be paint with out the Sun or the See?
Maybe the Sun and the See are everything?
Maybe we do live in the See, only it's thinner up here?

Pratt Memorial School, situated at 168, Acharya Jagadish Chandra Bose Road, Kolkata – 700 014, was founded in 1876 in memory of Archdeacon Pratt as an English Medium School primarily for the education of Anglo Indian and Christian children.
The School is under the Diocese of Kolkata, the Church of North India; the Bishop of Kolkata being the Chairman of the Board of Governors of the School. The School is recognised by the Director of Public Instruction, Government of West Bengal and is inspected by the Deputy Director of Public Instruction (Anglo-Indian Schools) West Bengal. In Terms of the SUPREME COURT ORDER dated 12th April, 2012, in the WRIT PETITION No 95 of 2010, WE ARE NOT COVERED UNDER THE RTEACT, 2009, BEING AN UNAIDED MINORITY INSTITUTION.
Archdeacon John Henry Pratt was extremely interested in the education of the girl child. He gave instructions for the orphans living at the European Asylum opposite St James Church to attend classes at St James' Boys School. In 1876, five years after his death in 1871, under the instructions of the Bishop of Calcutta, Bishop Robert Milman, the girls were shifted to an old building on the church vicarage grounds and called Pratt Memorial School. On January 1st 1883, in connection with the Diocesan Board of Education, Pratt Memorial School was under the charge of the sisters of St John the Baptist, Clewer. The lower orphan school building built in 1783 was purchased and renovated. Further extension to the school building were completed in 1919.
In the beginning, Pratt Memorial School catered primarily for the Anglo Indian community and European girls. Later, other categories of children were given admission into the school. During the 2nd World War the R. A. F. Took over the school and the school was shifted to Nagpur. The Clewer sisters returned to England in 1940. The principals who followed, did much to improve the standard of education and the school was further extended and renovated and the amenities improved to suit the requirements of the students.

The upcoming film "Diary of June" seems a typical investigation thriller about a serial killer, but its director and actors say that the movie also tries to shed light on the problems caused by people's indifference.
Directed by Im Kyeong-soo, the movie is a story about serial murders, which take place one by one as they are described in a diary of a dead middle school student, who long suffered from "wangtta", or bullying, by his classmates.
"Accidentally, I saw a television documentary program about the issue (of bullying in school), and I realized how serious it was", Im said Wednesday during a news conference at Seoul Theater in downtown Seoul after the preview screening of "Diary of June". "I thought it resulted from social indifference, and I wanted to talk about it in my film".
"The portrayal of a student being bullied in the film may be seen as too extreme, but it is entirely based on my long research and that's just the reality", the director emphasized.
Although the film takes the genre of a conventional detective thriller, he put more emphasis on the story and message in it, but, at the same time, he was careful not to make it sound too instructive, he added.
Starring Moon Jeong-hyeok, Shin Eun-kyung and Kim Yoon-jin, the film revolves around two detectives Chu Ja-young (played by Shin Eun-kyung) and Kim Dong-wook (Eric Mun), who investigate the murder cases and get closer to the secret behind them.
Shin also explained that the film is not just a story about revenge but it carries the strong message that indifference can be worse than hatred.
"The film shows that individualism could create dangerous consequences, which finally return to ourselves like a boomerang", Shin said.
The conference was also attended by Kim Yoon-jin, who plays Seo Yun-hee, the mother of the dead boy in the film. To promote the film, Kim flew from Hawaii where she is now shooting the second season of "Lost", an American TV drama series.
Regarding her role in the second season of the prime-time drama, Kim said that as all the 13 characters have their own episodes her character would be portrayed like in the first season.
"I don't know if my role will be more or less important in the second season, but I'm having fun shooting my scenes", Kim said.
Along with the two veteran actresses, Moon, who is also known as Eric Mun from popular boy band "Shinhwa" shows his different images as a young detective in the film. The film is the first time for him to play a main character although he starred in many TV series as a main character.
Moon gave his impression of starring in the film saying that a movie is much more difficult format than a TV drama, demanding more physical and mental effort.
"I thought starring in a TV drama and movie were almost the same in the beginning, but I learned that I should care about every single and even minor shot while shooting the film", Moon said.
"Diary of June" will be released at local theaters on Dec. 2.

My Work Today
Administrative data is currently scattered across the health system. It's kept manually or squirreled away in various systems in non-standard formats. As a result, getting a provincial picture is an extremely manual and time consuming process.
After AIMS
AIMS will dramatically reduce the number of administrative systems that data is stored in. On top of that, it will be stored in a standardized format. Relevant information can then be gleaned from the data both quickly and accurately. This will ensure that decision makers have the information they need, when they need it.
