English rugby player Joe Marler imitates 'Irish horse' in bizarre and hilarious interview ahead of Harlequins clash with Bath
The video has been viewed 500k times online and baffled Twitter users
by Andrew ByrneA pro rugby player imitated an "Irish horse" in a bizarre interview on Wednesday.
The Harlequins FC and English international star, Joe Marler, compared himself to an "Irish horse" in an interview with his club's media channel after a recent loss.
Marler describes the hurt he felt after the recent defeat and said the team has to "get back on the horse".
Marler takes the classic cliche answer and embarks on a tale about a horse who wants to "give a better performance" this weekend against Bath.
He said: "I wasn't hurting as much as the lads who were out there but I definitely felt it and I know how hard the boys have taken that.
"They'll be disappointed with the account that we put out but we have got another week to get back on the horse and take that horse to the water and you can ask that horse and say, 'Hey, horsey, do you want to have a drink or do you want to swim?'
"And it's up to that horse to then realise what he wants to do in his life.
"And that horse, at the moment, wants to go out on Saturday.
"He wants to clippidy-clop all the way to The Stoop and he wants to say 'hello' to those fans.
"And he goes: 'I'm sorry about the result last week, but I'm going to give a better performance here at home against Bath.'
After attempting to bizarrely imitate a 'horse' voice in that last sentence, he continued: "He's a slightly Irish horse."
The bizarre video has been viewed 597k times on the Harlequins Twitter channel, with fans and viewers loving the interview.
One fan said: "Absolutely brilliant! Funny as, Joe. Thanks for making us laugh.
"It's great to see a professional sportsman still show his character.
"Go well against Bath."
Another added: "If there's no actual horse at the game on Saturday I'm going to be very upset now."
Another Twitter user said: "Joe Marler needs to do a 'one man show'. He was first class on Wossy the other night."
Harlequins play Bath at 5.30pm on Saturday evening.

Dropping fizzy drinks from your diet could help you lose weight ahead of Christmas
If you're struggling to lose weight there could be a simple fix
by Blathin de PaorThe winter season is often a danger zone when it comes to weight loss and motivation.
But there could be a painless yet effective way to lose a few pounds ahead of Christmas.
As it turns out that cutting just one thing from your diet could help you to shed those unwanted pounds.
According to research, ditching fizzy drinks can help you to lose weight much faster.
The Boston Public Health Commission found that drinking large amounts of sugary drinks increases the risk of weight gain, developing Type 2 diabetes and heart disease.
They said: “Drinking just one 20-ounce bottle of a sugary beverage per day can result in gaining 25 extra pounds per year.”
Drinks that are sweetened with extra sugar have been shown to be linked to obesity in adults and children.
A whopping 93 per cent of research projects showed the positive correlation.
One study found that adults aiming to lose weight who cut out sugary drinks lost more weight than those who didn’t.
So there you have it - pour out the cola for a trimmer figure.
Adding fruit to water is a great way to sweeten your beverage in a natural, and healthier way.

Thermal capacitance
Information
This is a generic model for thermal capacitance of material. No
specific geometry is assumped beyond a total volume. This model
also assumes a single uniform temperature for the entire volume.
It is also assumed that the density and specific heat capacity are
indepedent of temperature.
Parameters

Linear heat convection
Information
This is model of linear heat convection. The basic constitutive equation for convection is:
q = h*(a.T-b.T);
It is assumed in this model that 'h' is a parameter and therefore not a function of temperature.
Parameters
| Name | Default | Description |
| h | 1.0 | [W/(m2.K)] |
| A | 1.0 | [m2] |
Modelica definition
model Convection "Linear heat convection"
extends Interfaces.Element1D;
parameter Modelica.SIunits.CoefficientOfHeatTransfer h=1.0;
parameter Modelica.SIunits.Area A=1.0;
equation
q = A*h*dT;
end Convection;
Black body radiation
Information
This simple radiation model uses the following constitutive equation:
q = F*A*sigma*(a.T^4-b.T^4);
where 'F' is a view factor (see "A Heat Transfer Textbook", Lienhard, 1987), 'A' is the area of the radiating surface
and sigma is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant. It should be pointed out that 'F' should be chosen so that it
corresponds to the surface for which the area, 'A', is being supplied. In other words, each surface will have
its own unique value for F (based on geometry) and it is important the values of 'F' and 'A' be consistent with
each other.
Parameters
| Name | Default | Description |
| F | | View factor |
| A | 1.0 | [m2] |
Modelica definition
model BlackBodyRadiation "Black body radiation"
extends Interfaces.Element1D;
parameter Real F "View factor";
parameter Modelica.SIunits.Area A=1.0;
equation
q = F*Modelica.Constants.sigma*A*(a.T^4 - b.T^4);
end BlackBodyRadiation;

The very first Git commit of Spincast framework was done April 23, 2016, almost three years ago! Since then, Spincast has always stayed in beta... Why is that? The answer is that we wanted to stabilize the API as much as possible and we wanted Spincast to be used on real projects before calling it ready.
Since then, a lot of new plugins have been developed. A RealWorld.io implementation (here) was also created... RealWorld.io is slowly becoming a mandatory rite of passage for any new framework.
Big Bada Boom comics is an example of a real project entirely based on Spincast. Everything, from authentication to security is based on Spincast framework.
At first, we wanted to migrate Spincast to Java 11 before tagging it 1.0.0
, but sadly we feel the Java ecosystem is still not perfect in regard to
the new JPMS/Jigsaw module system added in Java 9...
We encountered many errors
using the popular IDEs trying to migrate. So we decided to stabilize on Java 8 first. Spincast 2.X.X
will be based on Java 11 when we feel
the tools are mature enough.
Please play with the Quick Start application! Tell us what you think. Feel free to contribute. We know we do not have the financial resources or a community as big as other frameworks such as Spring, but look at the code, experiment a bit, make your own mind.

“The integrated features we use from Panorama help us save a tremendous amount of time and effort by managing donor information and data, not to mention helping us streamline our communication efforts.”
“Being able to quickly import the contacts and donation information allowed us to have a quick turnaround for analysis and sharing the success of the event with the public.”
“I essentially did not find any product that was remotely close to what I wanted to do until I discovered Panorama. There are quite a few systems like ours in the nation who employ a lot of people. In my opinion, your platform is the only one out there capable of serving this niche.”

Author: Peter Nerád<EMAIL_ADDRESS>/ Commiter: Peter Nerád<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Initial commit


I was born in good ol' Washington State. Being that I was born to two immigrant parents seeking a better life, I am no stranger to adversity. I am the first of my family to graduate from a four year University and the first to pursue a carreer in tech.
My passion:I live for music production and audio engineering. It is such a satisfying feeling to get to manipulate sounds and arrange music the way you like it. I have fallen in love with the music creation process and continue to work towards improving my skills.
A fun fact: Being the music lover that I am, I have taken my singing talents further than the shower and have actually recorded my own music and released it on all major music streaming platforms! I'm a jack of all trades!

I am pretty critical of my writing. I notice that a fair number of my sentences start with a preposition and a dependent clause. I notice that I tend to write extraordinarily long sentences that often require commas (I am compensating for the absence of the semi-colon in non-academic prose, I wager).
But mostly, I find I use a lot of really boring verbs: So-and-so says. The company announces. The product launches. The CEO contends. Opponents argue.
So in a quest to vary my verbs (or more accurately, perhaps, in a quest to amuse myself), I've come up with a list of words that would be just a lot more fun to utilize. Question is: can I use them in my blogging?

Visualizing IDyOM outputs
This tutorial will cover some useful plotting in py2lispIDyOM. For an overview of the py2lispIDyOM functionality, see the README. In the current version, only limited basic plots are available.
In this tutorial, We will continue the sample example as in the 1_running_IDyOM_tutorial.ipynb, and plot some IDyOM outputs from that experiment, where the log folder is experiment_history/21-05-22_17.05.05/
Current version of py2lispIDyOM has the following types of basic plots:
simple_plot
selected_surprisal_entropy
all_surprisal
all_entropy
pianoroll_pitch_prediction_groundtruth
pianoroll_groundtruth_overall_surprisal
[1]:
# import BasicPlot from viz module
import py2lispIDyOM as py2lispIDyOM
from py2lispIDyOM.viz import BasicPlot
Simple Plot
BasicPlot.simple_plot
Generate a simple line plot with time (in quarter note) on the x-axis, and selected IDyOM output on the y-axis.
In the following example, we will:
- plot the `information.content` of the melodies named '"chor-001"', and '"chor-002"',
- save and show the figs here,
- use ggplot style and show grid.
Note that you can modify the figsize, dpi and other params as you like.

[ ]:
Selected surprisal and entropy
BasicPlot.selected_surprisal_entropy
Generate a figure that shows the selected entropy and information content.
In the following example, we will:
- plot the `onset.information.content` and `onset.entropy` of the melodies named '"chor-003"'
- save and show the figs here,
- use ggplot style and show grid.

[ ]:
Plot all available surprisal outputs
BasicPlot.all_surprisal
Generate subplots of all available surprisal outputs.
In the following example, we will:
- plot the all available surprisal outputs of IDyOM of the melodies named '"chor-005"'
- save and show the figs here,
- use ggplot style and show grid.

Plot piano roll of pitch prediction and ground truth
BasicPlot.pianoroll_pitch_prediction_groundtruth
Generate a pair of figures (the predicted pitch distribution and the ground truth) side by side. If users intend to plot figures for specific songs, they can do so by specifying either the melody names, or the starting/ending index in the melody list.
In the following example, we will:
- plot the melody named '"chor-010"'
- save the fig .

# specify experiment folder
my_exp = 'experiment_history/21-05-22_17.05.05/'
# specify plotting params

Identity and Values
A quote that best summarises my core values is from Robin Williams in a 60 Minutes tribute to his friend and mentor, Jonathan Winters. When asked what he had learned from Jonathan, he responded that “The world is open for play, that everything and everybody is mockable, in a wonderful way.” In a video essay, Evan Puschak explores this, saying “…it suggests rightly, that humanity and our shared reality is made up of fluid elements of language and social structures which are sometimes codified into rules and pressures and laws, but that even the most rigid feature of what man makes can be turned flexible again and malleable again and funny, with play.”
These first 6 words, “The world is open for play” have always stuck with me and carry multiple meanings. One is that we should always test and question the things around us. To look at life from different angles and be open to reevaluating our understandings. Another is a reminder that we exist in this space and time and we have this life to work with, that we can act upon the world and make of it what we will. It’s about approaching the beautiful absurdity of the world and all the forces acting upon it with a certain lightness. That we can forge our own paths outside of convention; that we don’t have to slot into place.
More succinctly, I define my core values as curiosity, empathy, and creativity. When asked, people closest to me reenforced these as being my values. (!) Thirst for knowledge.
A time that challenged my core values was when I worked in retail for one of the telecommunication companies. There were two young customers who were interested in signing onto phone plans as they came with free handsets. I was worried that the plans were larger than what they needed and they would end up paying much more over the life of the contract. Also, I was concerned they weren’t taking the contract seriously. Ideally, I would have spoken more candidly about my concerns but I felt caught by my responsibilities to my employer, as well as whether it was appropriate to question their request. In hindsight, I wish I had done more to make sure they were making a good decision. Although I was empathetic to their situation, I didn’t act on it and although I had a responsibility to my employer, I didn’t push back against the situation.
I don’t know how my culture has influenced my values. I’m mindful that I’m privileged to have grown up in a middle-class family and that my value system might be a product of freedom that accompanies that. I would say that my personality type as described by the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator has a greater influence. When I first tested as INTP and read through the profile it was uncanny how it aligned with my experiences. While I remain skeptical of the value of the system, I do feel it provides some insight or at least a bedrock for introspection.
The strengths of the INTP, which are listed as being analytical, original, open-minded, curious, objective, all ring true and are compatible/overlap with my stated values. They are also good qualities in a web developer, partially being analytical and curious.
The weakness are listed as disconnected, insensitive, impatient, dissatisfied, perfectionistic. Dissatisfaction and perfectionism often trip me up, locking me in moments of decision paralysis and procrastination.

$\alpha$ confidence intervals
Hypothesis testing ($\alpha$ level)
Confidence intervals are most useful when you want to estimate population parameters
Hypothesis tests and p-values are most useful when you want to test hypotheses about population parameters
Confidence intervals give you a range of plausible values
p-values quantify the strength of evidence against the null hypothesis
Are the following questions best assessed using:
How much do college students sleep, on average?
Do college students sleep more than the recommended 8 hours a night, on average?
What proportion of college students in the sleep study sample slept at least 8 hours?
Hypothesis testing is very powerful, as it helps shed light on whether an observed effect could be real or just due to random chance.
However, statistical significance is not foolproof, and it is possible to make the wrong decision, rejecting a true null hypothesis or not rejecting a false null hypothesis.
We will discuss common pitfalls associated with formal hypothesis testing, along with factors that influence the chances of these errors occurring.
Paper published in Nature with p-value < 0.01

Concluded, based on the data, that mate choice improves offspring fitness.
This went against conventional wisdom.
Researchers at Penn State tried to replicate the results…
600 female fruit flies, randomly divided:
After mating, females were separated from the males and put in egg-laying chambers.
200 larvae from each chamber were taken and placed in a cage with 200 mutant flies (for competition).
Offspring survival rate was measured.
Experiment repeated 10 times/day for 5 days (50 runs, 10000 larvae tested in each group).
| Larvae survived? |
Mate choice? | ||
| Yes | No | Total | |
| Yes | 6067 | 5976 | 12043 |
| No | 3933 | 4024 | 7957 |
| Total | 10000 | 10000 | 20000 |
Difference in survival rate:
$d=\overset{\hat{}}{p}_\textrm{choice}-\overset{\hat{}}{p}_\textrm{no choice}$
$d=0.6067-0.5976=0.009$
One-tail p-value = 0.102
Two studies investigated the same topic.
One study found significant results. ($p<0.01$)
One study found insignificant results. ($p=0.102$)
Errors can happen!
| Decision | |||
| Reject H$_0$ | Do not reject H$_0$ | ||
| Truth | H$_0$ true | Type I error | |
| H$_0$ false | Type II error |
Errors can happen!
Option #1:
The original study (p-value < 0.01) made a Type I error, and H$_0$ is really true
Option #2:
The second study (p-value = 0.102) made a Type II error, and H$_a$ is really true
Option #3:
No errors were made; different experimental settings yielded different results
What is the probability of making a Type I or Type II error?
If the null hypothesis is true:
If $\alpha=0.05$, there is a 5% chance of a Type I error
If the null hypothesis is true:
If $\alpha=0.01$, there is a 1% chance of a Type I error
The probability of making a Type I error (rejecting a true null) is the significance level, $\alpha$.
How can we reduce the probability of making a Type II Error (not rejecting a false null)?
($=$ How could we increase the probability of rejecting the null?)
Increase the sample size
Larger sample size makes it easier to reject the null
(decrease the variability of the sampling distribution)
increase $n$ to decrease chance of Type II error
Set 1:
Mean: 16
SD: 5
Set 2:
Mean: 20
SD: 5
$\bar{x}_2-\bar{x}_1=4$
(n=9)
$p=0.1109$
(n=15)
$p=0.0376$
(n=21)
$p=0.0132$
How can we reduce the probability of making a Type II Error (not rejecting a false null)?
($=$ How could we increase the probability of rejecting the null?)
Increase the sample size
Increase the significance level
Increase $\alpha$ to reduce the chance of Type II error
Decrease $\alpha$ to reduce the chance of Type I error
While we wish to avoid both types of errors, in practice we have to accept some trade-off between them:
This balance is set by how easy or hard it is to reject H$_0$, which is exactly determined by the significance level! ($\alpha$)
The significance level $\alpha$, represents the tolerable probability of making a Type I error.
If the consequences of a Type I error are severe (for example, approving a new drug that is potentially dangerous) we might use a very small $\alpha$ (perhaps even $\alpha=0.005$).
If the consequences of a Type II error are severe (for example, failing to diagnose a treatable disease), we would want to make it easier to reject H$_0$, so we might use a relatively large $\alpha$.
However, remember that there is always a trade-off between the two types of errors, so we usually use the common significance levels of 5%, 10% or 1%.
Because the chance of a Type I error is $\alpha$ …
$\alpha$ of all tests with true null hypotheses will yield significant results just by chance.
If 100 tests are done with $\alpha=0.05$ and nothing is really going on (the null hypothesis is really true), 5% of them will yield significant results (reject the null), just by chance.
This is known as the problem of multiple testing
Consider a topic that is being investigated by research teams all over the world:
Using $\alpha=0.05$, 5% of teams are going to find something significant, even if the null hypothesis is true.
Consider a research team/company doing many hypothesis tests:
Using $\alpha=0.05$, 5% of the tests are going to be significant, even if the null hypotheses are all true.
multiple hypothesis tests
When multiple tests are conducted, if the null hypotheses are all true, the proportion of all the tests that will yield statistically significant results just by random chance is about $\alpha$, the significance level.
The experiment was actually comprised of 50 smaller experiments. (experiment repeated 10 times/day for 5 days - 50 runs, 10000 larvae tested in each group).

What if we had calculated the p-value for each run?

What if we just reported the run that yielded a p-value of 0.0001?
Is that ethical?
Publication bias refers to the fact that usually only the significant results get published.
The one study that turns out significant gets published, and no one knows about all the insignificant results (also known as the file drawer problem)
Publication bias, combined with the problem of multiple testing can yield very misleading results.
The study was 100 percent authentic. My colleagues and I recruited actual human subjects in Germany. We ran an actual clinical trial, with subjects randomly assigned to different diet regimes. And the statistically significant benefits of chocolate that we reported are based on the actual data.
It was, in fact, a fairly typical study for the field of diet research. Which is to say: It was terrible science. The results are meaningless, and the health claims that the media blasted out to millions of people around the world are utterly unfounded.
I know what you’re thinking. The study did show accelerated weight loss in the chocolate group—shouldn’t we trust it? Isn’t that how science works?
 Our study included 18 different measurements—weight, cholesterol, sodium, blood protein levels, sleep quality, well-being, etc.—from 15 people. (One subject was dropped.) That study design is a recipe for false positives (Type I error).
Newspapers never covered initial studies reporting null findings and rarely reported subsequent null observations. Only 48.7% of the 156 studies reported by newspapers were confirmed by the corresponding meta-analyses.
The p-value was never meant to be used the way it's used today
It can be proven that most claimed research findings are false.
Many researchers believe that if scientists set out to reproduce preclinical work published over the past decade, a majority would fail. This, in short, is the reproducibility crisis.
A recent study tried to replicate 100 results published in psychology journals: 97% of the original results were significant, only 36% of replicated results were significant
Each is one medical study
Schoenfeld J. and Ioannidis JPA (2013). 'Is everything we eat associated with cancer? A systematic cookbook review'. Am J Clin Nutr 97:1 127-134
A single study is rarely the final answer.
And yet for science reporters, new studies are irresistible — a bold new finding makes a great headline.
Point #1:
Errors (type I and II) are possible
Point #2:
Multiple testing and publication bias are a huge problem
What can you do?
Replication (or reproducibility) of a study in another setting or by another researcher is extremely important!
Studies that have been replicated with similar conclusions gain credibility
Studies that have been replicated with different conclusions lose credibility
Replication helps guard against Type I errors AND helps with generalizability
J.B. Landers (CAUSEweb.org)
Actually, the research at Penn State included 3 different experiments; two different species of fruit flies and three different mutant types.
Multiple possible outcomes (% surviving in each group, % of survivors who were from experimental group (not mutants)
Multiple ways to analyze – proportions, quantitative paired analysis
Original study:
Significant in favor of choice
(p < 0.01)
Follow-up study #1:
Not significant
$\frac{6067}{10000}-\frac{5976}{10000}= 0.6067 - 0.5976 = \fragindex{1}{\fraglight{highlight-current-bckg-red}{0.009}}$
($p = 0.102$)
Follow-up study #2:
Significant in favor of no choice
$\frac{4579}{10000}-\frac{4749}{10000}= 0.4579 - 0.4749 = \fragindex{1}{\fraglight{highlight-current-bckg-red}{-0.017}}$
($p= 0.008$)
Follow-up study #3:
Significant in favor of no choice
$\frac{1641}{5000}-\frac{1758}{5000}= 0.3282 - 0.3516 =
\fragindex{1}{\fraglight{highlight-current-bckg-red}{-0.02}}$
($p=0.007$)
Suppose a weight loss program recruits 10,000 people for a randomized experiment.
Because of the huge sample size, a difference in average weight loss of only 0.5 lbs could be found to be statistically significant
Suppose the experiment lasted for a year.
Is a loss of ½ a pound practically significant?
A statistically significant result is not always practically significant, especially with large sample sizes
What do we do then?
Set 1:
Mean: 16
SD: 5
Set 2:
Mean: 20
SD: 5
$\bar{x}_2-\bar{x}_1=4$
(n=9)
$p=0.1109$
(n=15)
$p=0.0376$
(n=21)
$p=0.0132$
What is really important here, is not so much if the p-value suggests a statistical significant result or not, but the actual value of the effect of your treatment ($\bar{x}_2-\bar{x}_1=4$)
Conclusions based off p-values are not perfect
Type I and Type II errors can happen
$\alpha$ of all tests will be significant just by chance and often, only the significant results get published
Replication of results is important
Larger sample sizes make it easier to get significant results
Reporting confidence intervals along/instead of the p-value
gives you an estimate of the true
value of your effect (treatment).
This is what is of practical importance.

Basseterre is one of the most attractive towns in the Caribbean, with a range of both French and English architecture.
Following its virtual destruction by hurricanes George and Lenny in 2003, the entrance and protective breakwater of the marina have been redesigned so to render it calm and safe from surge. However that said, cruisers have reported a 20 degree roll here which makes it unsafe for yachts in certain weather conditions.
Cruise ships arrive every day during high season and their life boats take priority on the main wall, bringing in hundreds of passengers.
Position 17° 17'10"N, 62° 43'14"W.
On approach, call Customs on VHF channel 16 for instructions.
Clearance is handled at the Customs Office at Port Zante Marina (on the second floor of the yellow building).
The Immigration office and the Port Authority offices are both located in the cruise ship "welcome building"; Immigration on one side and the Port Authority on the other.
Note however that Immigration are not present at the cruise ship "welcome building" at weekends, so a visit to the airport is necessary.
Note: As from the end of June 2012, the E-SeaClear system has been discontinued.
Last updated May 2015.
Due to the rolly nature of the anchorage here, berthing in the Zante marina is the more comfortable option. The marina is located west of the deep water dock.
Care must be taken on approaching the marina at night as many of the pilings from the original cruise ship dock are still there. Contact the marina manager on VHF CH 16 or 68 to arrange a berth.
The marina is very small and only has a few berths available for visiting yachts, all the others are occupied with local boats. There is no dedicated dinghy dock.
A new marina for superyachts opened at Christophe Harbour in February 2015. It has a wide access channel, 24 alongside berths from 45-65 meters and duty free in-slip fueling.

Bahrain II - Life in the desert
All in all I spent about 3 weeks in Bahrain, staying with my friend Andrew who graciously showed me around. This was my first time in the middle east, so here are a few assorted observations. Seriously, it’s 01:00h here and I had a few beers…if you expect a coherent narrative you came to the wrong place.
Still pretty warm
Bahrain is a desert country. No surprises there.
Sure, it’s an island, but a desert island in a shallow, half-boiling pond (called ‘the gulf’) surrounded by more desert in almost every direction. A few times I stepped outside during the day. I lived to regret it every single time: The heat was unbearable. A casual 40°C and a city baked to a smoking crisp by a sun as merciless as a very merciless thing.  Don’t.
Am I being overly sensitive because I’m used to northern European climate? Sure. Does that make the Emirates any less hostile to human life? Not really. Airconditioning alone keeps people from turning into a human form of jerky. And this is the greater irony:
Not only is Bahrain insanely hot, it’s also freezing cold. The same geniuses who thought it was a good idea to build cities on sand that’s a few degrees above its melting point also thought it might be amazing to cool every living space down to about 16°C. Suddenly popping out to the shops means that within 5 minutes you experience a temperature difference that most European countries get over the course of a year. You leave the cinema with icicles hanging from your nose. Your sweat-soaked shirt is frozen to your frost-bitten back, which then burns once you step out into the sun. Awesome.
All of this seems perfectly plausible to the locals. My favourite remark: “But you’re from the north, you must love the cold!” No, we fricking don’t! We have heating for that, and warm clothes and vacation days! We hate the cold more than anything. So why do you do that?! Why does your office make me think of the Winter War or Stalingrad ‘42?
It’s Ramadan
About halfway through my stay in Bahrain, Ramadan started. I was familiar with the concept on an individual level but not quite prepared for what it looks like on a societal level. For the period between 18.06. and 17.07. public life slowed down to allow the population time for introspection, their faith and reconnecting with family and loved ones.
They were also not supposed to consume anything between sunrise and sunset. In Bahrain this is taken seriously as far as public life is concerned: You can’t eat in public. Or drink (even water). Or smoke. Or chew gum. Any one of those things is grounds for a stint in a cell and a hefty fine.
As a result, any place serving food or drink is closed during the day. Good way to avoid temptation, I guess. But once the sun sinks below the horizon…
Food is amazing. I like food.
The food. Oh my god, the food! As you’d expect, not eating during the day gets people quite excited about food! As a result, the meals available after sunset are just astonishing in quantity.
Since Bahrain is such a melting pot, the sheer variety of fantastic food also shines in terms of quality. My friends took me to one great restaurant after the other, every one of which left me grinning like an idiot. Luckily, the desert heat did little to dampen the ever-present hunger that comes with the fusion-drive that is my metabolism.
Bahrain being a bit of a melting pot there is no shortage of cuisines to chose from: Middle eastern, American, European, Indian, Thai, you name it. Most service jobs in Bahrain are done by workers from Southeast Asia or the Philippines. Consequently, whichever cuisine you chose, the food will be served by people from that part of the world. Turkish food? Indians. American food? Indians. Indian food? Philipinos!
Add the fantastic Indian food served at Andrew’s place to the mix and it’s a proper miracle they didn’t have to roll me back over the border. Some of my favourite treats included:
-
Milkshake “Miley Cyrus” (Cookie dough + Reese’s Peanut Butter cups)
-
Fresh lemon juice with mint
-
Cheese samosas
-
Tandoori fish filet
-
Lebanese BBQ
-
So. Many. Things.
Uh…excuse me for a second, I need to go find some dinner!
Until next time,
Arne

EDExchange is a way for your college to exchange transcripts in a secure, standardized way with any other college in the EDEXchange network.
Before EDExchange, there was no consistent way for colleges to request and exchange documents with each other. Service provider exchange networks operated in isolation from one another and any available legacy exchange platforms were built on old standards without delivery confirmation.
Because EDExchange is open source you can extend it to suit your specific needs.
Learn more about the reference implementation of the network server.
Sending a transcript to a college in the EDExchange network is as easy as entering the receiving school information, uploading the transcript, and clicking Send.
What you won’t have to do? Wonder whether or not the transcript was received or worry about file format or data security.
Once you complete your registration form, you can login and begin to configure your organization to send and/or receive documents. Once your organization is reviewed and approved by PESC, you may begin to use the network to send and receive documents.
EDExchange member organizations can be configured to send and receive documents, just send, or just receive. Alternatively, an organization can utilize an EDExchange service provider to send and receive documents on it's behalf.
To send documents, you must publish a SSL certificate to the EDExchange directory server for the purpose of creating and verifying digital signatures.
Institutions can alternatively use an EDExchange service provider to send documents on their behalf.
To receive documents, you must deploy an EDExchange network server on the internet using a domain name of your choice and secure it using an SSL certificate. HTTPS is required for URLs that are used to receive documents.
Once the network server is deployed, you must publish the endpoint (the URL used to receive documents) on the EDExchange directory server.
Insitutions can alternatively use an EDExchange service provider to receive documents on their behalf.
Note that the process of sending a document is implemented in the free reference implementation of the network server.
First, the sender obtains the published URL for the the receiver, based on attributes of the document and the intended recipient, from the EDExchange directory server.
Next, the sender must generate a digital signature for the document.
Next, create a transaction about the document for reporting purposes.
Send the document and digital signature to the receiving URL along with the directory ID of the sender and the recipient, and optionally with a transaction ID and acknowledgment URL.
Update the transaction with information about the delivery provided by the receiving network server
Note that the process of receiving a document is implemented in the free reference implementation of the network server.
When a document and it's digital signature are received by the the receiver's hosted network server over the published URL,
the network server creates a transaction about the document for reporting purposes.The network server then verifies the document's digital signature by obtaining the sender's published SSL certificate from the EDExchange directory server.
Once the document's signature is verified, the network server delivers the document to the recipient and sends an acknowledgement back to the sender, with the sender's transaction ID, to indicate that the document has been delivered.
EDExchange project features:
Both SOAP web services and a REST API are available for extending functionality.
