"We work to provide delicious food made from fresh and local ingredients to the patrons of Belle Isle."
"Big A's Concessions" is owned and operated by N. Kuykendall Enterprises, LLC. It's name is a tribute to my mother, Alice Bennett who dies November 14, 2014 at 90 years of age. After closing "Bennett's Market and Deli" in mid 1990's, she yearned for a new business to leave her legacy and created self-esteem to the 72 Grand and Great-grandchildren she left behind. This tribute can never reflect her life worthiness, it is only a tiny contribution to the continued sacrifices she made during her life. Big A's Concessions, will continue to reflect love and affection as of its legacy and promises to provide safe and delicious foods and the highest quality of service to all customers.

Our Company has worked with Oracast on a couple of projects over the past 2years, where they have built us a system, specifically designed to meet the
needs of our business. They have done an excellent job of understanding our
needs, and have been creative in the solutions to the problems that we faced.
The system that they built has raised our company's level of efficiency in the
office and in the field. Oracast has continued to provide quick support when
issues arise, and have always been great to deal with. We have appreciated our
relationship with Oracast, and look forward to continuing to use their expertise in
the future. - Melbern Vegetation Inc.
*Look no further!* I had hired a lifelong friend to create a new web application for
helping people understand vehicle warranty. 13 months and thousands of dollars
later I was no closer to launching than I was when we started. In desperation I
reached out to Oracast. Most assuredly one of my better decisions. Jes, Ryan and their team were phenomenal. Unfortunately, the program had originally been
created in an outdated platform making future upgrades basically impossible.
The solutions was to start from basically scratch and rewrite the entire code in
PHP which would save money in the long run. Oracast stuck to their original
quote without complaint even though the task had become much, MUCH larger.
The end result is a web application that is exponentially better than what I had
hoped for and allows for substantial growth and flexibility going forward. Ryan
spent literally DAYS on the phone with me, evenings and weekends included, to
ensure that the application was everything I required and more. I was made to
feel like a big fish in a little pond even though this was the opposite of reality.
This group will be my 'go to' company permanently and I highly recommend them
for whatever your requirements are. I cannot say enough great things about this
company. Great people + great product = 100% lifelong customer loyalty! Do
yourself a favour and hire them! You won't be disappointed. - Carwise Consulting Inc.
Oracast has provided Snow Valley with a great new website that is easy to

Start Examination


Scientist, Hans Adolf Edward Dreisch, discovered that it was possible to separate cells using a sea urchin. He shook two-celled sea urchin embryos in order to separate their cells which made the individual cells grow into two separate sea urchins. This proved that there is a separate genetic make-up for the embryos in each cell which can grow into its own individual organism.
Scientists Robert Briggs and Thomas King made a tadpole by transferring the nucleus of a tadpole embryo into a frog egg with the nucleus removed. Not many tadpole clones survived and the ones that did grew abnormally because cloning has less success when the nuclei is transferred from a more advanced embryo Nevertheless, this experiment proved that nuclear transfer is a possible method of cloning, and that the nucleus controls cell growth and development.
Scientists Ian Wilnut and Keith Campbell transferred nuclei from a cultured sheep cells grown in the laboratory into sheep egg cells without a nuclei (rather than the nuclei from early embryos) to produce lambs. They cloned a lamb from an adult sheep's somatic cell by transferring its nucleus into an egg with no nucleus. They named this lamb Dolly, whom was famous for being the first embryo carried to term by a surrogate mother, this further advanced stem cell research.
Scientists Li Meng, John Ely, Richard Stouffer, and Don Wolf created the first primate by fusing early embryos with monkey egg cells which lacked nuclei. Next, they implanted the new embryos into surrogate mothers, which produced two monkeys, Neti and Ditto. This experiment showed scientists that monkeys can be cloned which are very similar to humans therefore, it is likely we would be able to clone humans if given the chance.
Scientist Shoukhrat Mitalipov and his colleagues fused an adult monkey cell with an egg cell without a nucleus, its embryonic stem cells can seperate to make any kind of cell. This proved that nuclear transfer in primates was possible and started the idea for human therapeutic cloning which can treat disease, this was a huge medical advancement.
Scientist Shoukhrat Mitalipov and his colleagues produced a human embryo. The process they used is called somatic cell nuclear transfer and can be used to make embryonic stem cells. The stem cells made were specific to the patient they derived from.

West of Dead is a supernatural Wild West twin-stick shooter starring Ron Perlman
by Andy ChalkRaw Fury revealed a new game during today's X019 livestream today called West of Dead, a twin-stick voice set in a supernatural Wild West that looks like a between Diablo and Jonah Hex, starring Ghost Rider.
The western setting is actually Purgatory, an ever-changing world where dead man William Mason has, for reasons unknown, been brought back to fiery-headed life to do what he does—which is, as far as I can tell, kill everything that moves.
But is there more to this story than meets the eye? The West of Dead website suggests that there might be: "When a dead man awakens with only the memory of a figure in black, he sets into motion a chain of events that have truly mythic consequences."
West of Dead is currently available in open beta until November 25—but only on the Xbox One—and is expected to be out sometime in 2020

spectrwm
— window
manager for X11
spectrwm |
[-c file]
[-v ] |
spectrwm
is a minimalistic window manager
that tries to stay out of the way so that valuable screen real estate can be
used for much more important stuff. It has sane defaults and does not
require one to learn a language to do any configuration. It was written by
hackers for hackers and it strives to be small, compact and fast.
When spectrwm
starts up, it reads settings
from its configuration file, spectrwm.conf. See the
CONFIGURATION FILES section
below.
The following notation is used throughout this page:
spectrwm
is very simple in its use. Most
of the actions are initiated via key or pointer button bindings. See the
BINDINGS section below for defaults and
customizations.
spectrwm
looks for the user-configuration
file in the following order:
If the user-configuration file is not found,
spectrwm
then looks for the global configuration
file in the following order:
The format of the file is
keyword
=
setting
For example:
color_focus = red
Enabling or disabling an option is done by using 1 or 0 respectively.
Colors need to be specified per the XQueryColor(3) specification.
Mark option values may be wrapped in single/double quotes to prevent whitespace trimming, specify empty strings, etc. Literal quote/backslash characters can be escaped with backslash '\', when needed.
Comments begin with a #. When a literal
‘#
’ is desired in an option, then it
must be escaped with a backslash, i.e. \#
The file supports the following keywords:
autorun
ws
[idx]:application,
e.g. ws[2]:xterm launches an xterm(1) in workspace 2.
Note that workspace mapping is handled via
libswmhack.so. When
autorun
spawns windows via a daemon, ensure the
daemon is started with the correct LD_PRELOAD in
its environment.
For example, starting urxvtd(1) via xinit(1):
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libswmhack.so.0.0 urxvtd -q -o -f
Spawned programs automatically have LD_PRELOAD set when executed.
It is advised to check the man page of ld.so as LD_PRELOAD is sometimes ignored by some operating systems. A workaround is available, e.g. launch an xterm(1) in workspace 2:
autorun = ws[2]:xterm -name ws2 quirk[XTerm:ws2] = WS[2]
bar_action
bar_action_expand
bar_format
character sequences in
bar_action
output; default is 0.bar_at_bottom
bar_border
[x]bar_border_unfocus
[x]bar_border_width
bar_color
[x]A comma separated list of up to 10 colors can be specified.
The first value is used as the default background color. Any of these
colors can then be selected as a background color in the status bar
through the use of the markup sequence +@bg=n;
where n is between 0 and 9.
bar_color_selected
[x]bar_border
.bar_enabled
bar_toggle
state; default is 1.bar_enabled_ws
[x]bar_toggle_ws
state on workspace
x; default is 1.bar_font
The default is to use font set.
If Xft is used, a comma-separated list of up to 10 fonts can
be specified. The first entry is the default font. Any font defined here
can then be selected in the status bar through the use of the markup
sequence +@fn=n;
where n is between 0 and 9.
Also note that dmenu(1) prior to 4.6 does not support Xft fonts.
Xft examples:
bar_font = Terminus:style=Regular:pixelsize=14:antialias=true bar_font = -*-profont-medium-*-*-*-11-*-*-*-*-*-*-*,Terminus:pixelsize=14,-*-clean-medium-*-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Font set examples:
bar_font = -*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-* bar_font = -*-profont-medium-*-*-*-11-*-*-*-*-*-*-*,-*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*,-*-clean-medium-*-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
To list the available fonts in your system see fc-list(1) or xlsfonts(1) manpages. The xfontsel(1) application can help with the XLFD setting.
bar_font_color
[x]A comma separated list of up to 10 colors can be specified.
The first value is used as the default foreground color. Any of these
colors can then be selected as a foreground color in the status bar
through the use of the markup sequence +@fg=n;
where n is between 0 and 9.
bar_font_color_selected
[x]bar_color
.bar_font_pua
bar_format
clock_format
and all of the enabled
options. The format is
passed through strftime(3) before being used. It may
contain the following character sequences:
| Character sequence | Replaced with |
+< |
Pad with a space |
+A |
Output of the external script |
+C |
Window class (from WM_CLASS) |
+D |
Workspace name |
+F |
Floating indicator |
+I |
Workspace index |
+L |
Workspace list indicator |
+M |
Number of iconic (minimized) windows in workspace |
+N |
Screen number |
+P |
Window class and instance separated by a colon |
+R |
Region index |
+S |
Stacking algorithm |
+T |
Window instance (from WM_CLASS) |
+U |
Urgency hint |
+V |
Program version |
+W |
Window name (from _NET_WM_NAME/WM_NAME) |
+|[weight][justify] |
Begin new section and reset markup sequence effects.
|
++ |
A literal ‘+ ’ |
+@ |
Prefix for text markup sequences |
The currently recognized text markup sequences are:
| Character sequence | Action |
+@fn=n; |
Selects font n (from 0 to 9) from
bar_font . |
+@fg=n; |
Selects foreground color n (from 0 to 9) from
bar_font_color . |
+@bg=n; |
Selects background color n (from 0 to 9) from
bar_color . |
+@stp; |
Stops the interpretation of markup sequences. Any markup sequence found after +@stp will appear as normal characters in the status bar. |
Note that markup sequences in
bar_action
script output will only be processed
if bar_action_expand
is enabled.
All character sequences may limit its output to a specific length, for example +64A. By default, no padding/alignment is done in case the length of the replaced string is less than the specified length (64 in the example). The padding/alignment can be enabled using a '_' character in the sequence. For example: +_64W, +64_W and +_64_W enable padding before (right alignment), after (left alignment), and both before and after (center alignment) window name, respectively. Any characters that do not match the specification are copied as-is.
bar_justify
Note that if the output is not left justified, it may not be
properly aligned in some circumstances, due to the white-spaces in the
default static format. See the bar_format
option
for more details.

layout
ws
[idx]:master_grow:master_add:stack_inc:always_raise:stack_mode,
e.g. ws[2]:-4:0:1:0:horizontal sets workspace 2 to the horizontal stack
mode, shrinks the master area by 4 ticks and adds one window to the stack,
while maintaining default floating window behavior. Possible
stack_mode values are
vertical, vertical_flip,
horizontal, horizontal_flip
and max.
See master_grow
,
master_shrink
,
master_add
, master_del
,
stack_inc
, stack_dec
,

for more information. Note that the
stacking options are complicated and have side-effects. One should
familiarize oneself with these commands before experimenting with the

bind
entries that come later in the configuration
file. For existing bindings, the new value is substituted for the previous
value. Possible values are Mod1 (default),
Mod2, Mod3,
Mod4 and Mod5.
Mod1 is generally the Alt key, Mod2 is the Command key on macOS and Mod4 is the Windows key on a PC. The current modifier key mapping can be found by running xmodmap(1).

spectrwm
allows you to define custom
actions to launch programs of your choice and then bind them the same as
with built-in actions. See the BINDINGS
section below.
Custom programs in the configuration file are specified as follows:
program[action]
= progpath [arg
[arg ...]]
action is any identifier that does not conflict with a built-in action or keyword, progpath is the desired program, and arg is zero or more arguments to the program.
With the exception of '~' expansion, program calls are executed as-is without any interpretation. A shell can be called to execute shell commands. (e.g. sh -c 'command string').
Remember that when using ‘#
’
in your program call, it must be escaped with a backslash, i.e. \#
The following argument variables are replaced with values at the time the program is spawned:
$bar_border
$bar_color
$bar_color_selected
$bar_font
$bar_font_color
$bar_font_color_selected
$color_focus
$color_unfocus
bar_at_bottom
is enabled.$region_index
$workspace_index
Example:
program[ff] = /usr/local/bin/firefox http://spectrwm.org/ bind[ff] = MOD+Shift+b # Now M-S-b launches firefox
To cancel the previous, unbind it:
bind[] = MOD+Shift+b
Default programs:
term
lock
search
name_workspace
initscr
screenshot_all
screenshot_wind
Note that optional default programs will not be validated unless overridden. If a default program fails validation, you can resolve the exception by installing the program, modifying the program call or disabling the program by freeing the respective binding.
For example, to override lock
:
program[lock] = xscreensaver-command -lock
To unbind lock
and prevent it from being
validated:
bind[] = MOD+Shift+Delete
spectrwm
provides many functions (or
actions) accessed via key or pointer button bindings.

Custom bindings in the configuration file are specified as follows:
bind[action] =
combo
action is one of the actions listed above
(or empty to unbind) and combo is in the form of zero
or more modifier keys and/or special arguments (Mod1, Shift, Control, MOD,
etc.) and a normal key (b, Space, etc) or a button (Button1 .. Button255),
separated by ‘+
’. Multiple key/button
combinations may be bound to the same action.
Special arguments:
MOD
example:
bind[reset] = Mod4+q # bind Windows-key + q to reset bind[] = Mod1+q # unbind Alt + q bind[move] = MOD+Button3 # Bind move to M-Button3 bind[] = MOD+Button1 # Unbind default move binding.
ANYMOD
example:
bind[focus] = ANYMOD+Button3 bind[move] = MOD+Button3
In the above example,
M-
⟨Button3
⟩
initiates move
and
⟨Button3
⟩ pressed with any other
combination of modifiers sets focus to the window/region under the
pointer.
REPLAY
example:
bind[focus] = REPLAY+Button3
In the above example, when
⟨Button3
⟩ is pressed without any
modifier(s), focus is set to the window under the pointer and the button
press is passed to the window.
To bind non-latin characters such as å or π you must enter the xkb character name instead of the character itself. Run xev(1), focus the window and press the specific key and in the terminal output read the symbol name. In the following example for å:
KeyPress event, serial 41, synthetic NO, window 0x2600001, root 0x15a, subw 0x0, time 106213808, (11,5), root:(359,823), state 0x0, keycode 24 (keysym 0xe5, aring), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 2 bytes: (c3 a5) "å" XmbLookupString gives 2 bytes: (c3 a5) "å" XFilterEvent returns: False
The xkb name is aring. In other words, in spectrwm.conf add:
bind[program] = MOD+aring
To clear all default keyboard bindings and specify your own, see
the keyboard_mapping
option.
Keyboard mapping files for several keyboard layouts are listed
below. These files can be used with the
keyboard_mapping
setting to load pre-defined key
bindings for the specified keyboard layout.
spectrwm_cz.conf
spectrwm_es.conf
spectrwm_fr.conf
spectrwm_fr_ch.conf
spectrwm_se.conf
spectrwm_us.conf
spectrwm
provides "quirks" which
handle windows that must be treated specially in a tiling window manager,
such as some dialogs and fullscreen apps.
The default quirks are described below:
The quirks themselves are described below:
focus_mode
is set to
follow.focus_mode
is set to
follow.dialog_ratio
(see
CONFIGURATION FILES).Custom quirks in the configuration file are specified as follows:
quirk[class[:instance[:name]]]
= quirk [+ quirk ...]
class, instance (optional) and name (optional) are patterns used to determine which window(s) the quirk(s) apply to and quirk is one of the quirks from the list above.
Note that patterns are interpreted as POSIX Extended Regular Expressions. Any ':', '[' or ']' must be escaped with '\'. See regex(7) for more information on POSIX Extended Regular Expressions.
For example:
quirk[MPlayer] = FLOAT + FULLSCREEN + FOCUSPREV # Float all windows having a class of 'MPlayer' quirk[.*] = FLOAT # Float all windows by default. quirk[.*:.*:.*] = FLOAT # Same as above. quirk[Firefox:Navigator] = FLOAT # Float all Firefox browser windows. quirk[::Console] = FLOAT # Float windows with WM_CLASS not set and a window name of 'Console'. quirk[\[0-9\].*:.*:\[\[\:alnum\:\]\]*] = FLOAT # Float windows with WM_CLASS class beginning with a number, any WM_CLASS instance and a _NET_WM_NAME/WM_NAME either blank or containing alphanumeric characters without spaces. quirk[pcb:pcb] = NONE # remove existing quirk
You can obtain class, instance and name by running xprop(1) and then clicking on the desired window. In the following example the main window of Firefox was clicked:
$ xprop | grep -E "^(WM_CLASS|_NET_WM_NAME|WM_NAME)" WM_CLASS(STRING) = "Navigator", "Firefox" WM_NAME(STRING) = "spectrwm - ConformalOpenSource" _NET_WM_NAME(UTF8_STRING) = "spectrwm - ConformalOpenSource"
Note that xprop(1) displays WM_CLASS as:
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "<instance>", "<class>"
In the example above the quirk entry would be:
quirk[Firefox:Navigator] = FLOAT
spectrwm
also automatically assigns quirks
to windows based on the value of the window's _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE property
as follows:
In all other cases, no automatic quirks are assigned to the window. Quirks specified in the configuration file override the automatic quirks.
spectrwm
partially implements the Extended
Window Manager Hints (EWMH) specification. This enables controlling windows
as well as spectrwm
itself from external scripts and
programs. This is achieved by spectrwm
responding to
certain ClientMessage events. From the terminal these events can be
conveniently sent using tools such as wmctrl(1) and
xdotool(1). For the actual format of these ClientMessage
events, see the EWMH specification.
The id of the currently focused window is stored in the _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW property of the root window. This can be used for example to retrieve the title of the currently active window with xprop(1) and grep(1):
$ WINDOWID=`xprop -root _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW | grep -o "0x.*"` $ xprop -id $WINDOWID _NET_WM_NAME | grep -o "\".*\""
A window can be focused by sending a _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW client message to the root window. For example, using wmctrl(1) to send the message (assuming 0x4a0000b is the id of the window to be focused):
$ wmctrl -i -a 0x4a0000b
Windows can be closed by sending a _NET_CLOSE_WINDOW client message to the root window. For example, using wmctrl(1) to send the message (assuming 0x4a0000b is the id of the window to be closed):
$ wmctrl -i -c 0x4a0000b
Windows can be floated and un-floated by adding or removing the _NET_WM_STATE_ABOVE atom from the _NET_WM_STATE property of the window. This can be achieved by sending a _NET_WM_STATE client message to the root window. For example, the following toggles the floating state of a window using wmctrl(1) to send the message (assuming 0x4a0000b is the id of the window to be floated or un-floated):
$ wmctrl -i -r 0x4a0000b -b toggle,above
Windows can also be iconified and un-iconified by substituting _NET_WM_STATE_HIDDEN for _NET_WM_STATE_ABOVE in the previous example:
$ wmctrl -i -r 0x4a0000b -b toggle,hidden
Floating windows can also be resized and moved by sending a _NET_MOVERESIZE_WINDOW client message to the root window. For example, using wmctrl(1) to send the message (assuming 0x4a0000b is the id of the window to be resize/moved):
$ wmctrl -i -r 0x4a0000b -e 0,100,50,640,480
This moves the window to (100,50) and resizes it to 640x480.
Any _NET_MOVERESIZE_WINDOW events received for stacked windows are ignored.

To experience the future, your best bet is to rent a VR headset and take a leap into a make-believe dimension, where you'll be able to play games and watch movies that will be pretty accurate depictions of tomorrow.
But, as Joe Sparrow found out, if you really want to experience the world beyond your expiry date, you'll need to take slightly more drastic steps...
Physical death is a concept we’re not designed to understand.
Despite this, we spend our lives trying to figure it out (hello, philosophy!), mitigate against it (hey, religion!), or find mortal witnesses to our actions (hey, marriage, fame, ego!).
These are all human foibles - but there are a group of people for whom life is simply not enough, and who find death unpalatable.
So, they’re gambling, and the payoff is great: life after death. And after reading this, you might want to join them.
Walt and Peace
Nope. I’m not going to mention him, I thought. It’s far too obvious and old and boring. It’s not even true! So I’m not going to mention him.
And yet, here we are, blithely incorporating Walt Disney’s name at the start of a piece about Cryonics – the art of freezing dead people in order for their brains or bodies to be reanimated when future science can muster up the chops.
And Walt - well, everyone knows that he’s the most famous exponent of course; chilled to somewhere near zero Kelvin in a Californian warehouse.
Except… he’s not. He’s really, really, really not.
Even the then-president of the California Cryogenics Society, said as much to the Los Angeles Times upon the animator’s death in 1966:
The truth is, Walt missed out. He never specified it in writing, and when he died the family didn't go for it. They had him cremated. I personally have seen his ashes.
But Walt was interested, and why let the truth get in the way of a good story?
The ultimate gamble
Like Walt Disney he'll be frozen
― Beastie Boys (Ft. Biz Markie) – Can't, Won't And Don't Stop/Grasshopper Unit
Even if we are to believe the paragon of truthiness that are the Beastie Boys – who mentioned Disney’s rumoured current chilly disposition in song – the likelihood of ol’ Walt being re-activated is slim.
It’s the ultimate gamble. But it’s not even the type of gamble that would make a Premiership footballer baulk: the Cryonics Institute offers their services for a one-off fee for $28,000. (Consider that Wayne Rooney allegedly blew half a million pounds in one evening)
It’s also probably worth differentiating between Cryogenics - the act of making things very, very cold indeed - which is often confused with Cryonics - the act of making people very, very cold indeed.
But how is it supposed to work? And why are some very smart people signing up for the deep-freeze?
Here’s how it works. First, you write a water-tight will explaining you want to be frozen.  Maybe you upload your mind to something a bit like a Brain-Dropbox so that it can be re-downloaded later; the ultimate wipe-and-reset procedure.
And then, moments after you finally croak, the mourning relatives are nudged unceremoniously out of the way, so that your cooling corpse can be slung on a slab and drained of the pesky liquids (you are 70% water; water expands when it freezes; it turns out that this is a bad thing in this instance).

And then… you wait. (Better hope that there’s not a massive earthquake under your storage facility in the next thousand years. Or a power cut. Or a war.)
So how long is that wait? Well, here’s the fun part: who knows?
We’re only just getting somewhere with preserving individual organs for more than a few hours, so it’s gonna be a while.
Cryonics is based around some unconventional scientific wisdom and a few big assumptions: that memories are held in the brain long enough after death to make preserving the grey matter worthwhile, and that science will one day be advanced enough to re-activate your body.
The ultimate status symbol
To a “maker” in the anything’s-possible, bodies-are-just-another-dumb-thing-to-be-#disrupted culture of Silicon Valley, the hard limits of human life are, at the least, an inefficient inconvenience.
But disrupting death isn’t just an inevitable streamlining of a broken supply chain - it’s messing with a system that’s worked really well for the last four billion years, thank you very much.
Cryonics is based around some unconventional scientific wisdom and a few big assumptions: that memories are held in the brain long enough after death to make preserving the grey matter worthwhile, and that science will one day be advanced enough to re-activate your body.
Maybe that’s why cryonics is a pretty uncommon procedure: right now, less than 300 people are lingering in the ultimate chill-out room, although a few thousand have signed up to be let behind the velvet rope.
And yet, others argue, it’s madness that we don’t all put our names down right away.
Argument A: it’s super cheap. No, really. I worked it out on the back of an envelope and I’m not 100% sure why I’m not saving for it already, considering the possible advantages.
If it costs $28,000 to be frozen today, then if I live to 100, and inflation is roughly 3%, it’ll cost $185,669 when I pop my clogs. If I saved a couple of dollars a day between now and then, in an account with a decent compound interest rate, I’d have enough Death Dollars for the Freezer Procedure – with plenty to spare for a decent buffet at the funeral.
Argument B: the odds are with you, and it’s the biggest prize-pot of all. Nearly a quarter of a million dollars does seem like a massive amount of money to gamble on an unproven half-idea. But if Cryogenics has even only a 1% chance of working, you have a chance. And the other option, death, is famously certain in its finality.
So given the urgency we all have, as slobbering animals, to keep on living at any cost, Cryonics does seem like a rather prudent option. And it’s a better daily investment than a Vanilla Latte.
————-
Would monsieur care for a wafer-thin mint?
Thus, with logical feasibility out of the way, here’s an interesting ethical question: is being brought back to life after death not just incredibly greedy?
Our world is crowded with too many people as it is. Surely one more person - a special exception from hundreds of years in the past – wouldn’t make a difference to a crowded world, right? (For one answer, see the above visual representation of the outcome of just one more.)
Is it worth pausing to consider that maybe choosing not to live forever is a kinder thing to do? You didn’t choose to be here in the first place: maybe getting picky now is the ultimate solipsistic statement.
Lessons surround us: if you want an example of powerful people making difficult but technically possible gambles in order to enrich their own lives over others, look no further than Wall Street in 2008 – and try not to forget the billions whose lives were made worse as a result.
Job Losses following the Great Recession, via Vox
But wait! There’s more!
Or what if the future simply sucks: not in a doom-and-gloom, gloop-and-electrodes Matrix way, but a world where the only music available was Ed Sheeran ballads?

Great Scott!
Cryogenics is, in a way, a type of time travel. And, just like Marty McFly, no-one’s really sure where you’ll end up. But be sure that, if it works, it’ll probably not be in a family-friendly romp about resisting your mother’s romantic advances.
And here the biggest potential irony of all awaits Cryonics-advocates. It’s a thought that’ll zap a jolt of nightsweat-inducing fear through their mortal meat-bags: the scientists of the future will be more than capable of bringing you back to life – but why would they choose bring someone as greedy as you into their utopian, selfless, thoughtful world?
For the people making these ruthlessly logical and chilly gambles, it turns out that embracing the unknown needs to be part of the fun after all.
Still hankering to be frozen forever? Until then, why not rent the latest VR tech and experience some alternate realities today?

Yukon Gold — All Purpose
Yukon Gold potatoes have finely flaked yellowish-white skin with light yellow flesh. They’re bright, vegetal and slightly sweet, with a smooth, slightly waxy texture and moist flesh. They’re best for boiling, baking and making French fries. They’ll also stand up well to grilling, pan frying and roasting.
Purple Peruvian — All Purpose
Purple Peruvian potatoes have deep purple skin and flesh. The flesh is either uniform throughout or marbled with white and deep, inky purple. They’re earthy and slightly nutty, with an almost buttery aftertaste. They have a dry and starchy texture and are best for boiling, baking, roasting, frying and grilling, although they should work in all dishes and preparations.
Idaho Russet — Starchy
Idaho Russet potatoes are russet-skinned with white flesh. They’re what we typically imagine when we think of potatoes. They have a neutral potato flavor, a fluffy, creamy and soft texture, and are best for baking, mashing and making French fries. They’re also very absorbent, so are great paired with butter and cream — think mashed potatoes. Just don’t try using Idaho Russets for potato salads, gratins or any dish that requires the potatoes to hold their shape.
Katahdin — Starchy
Katahdin potatoes are your French fry potatoes. They have smooth skin with yellowish flesh, and a classic potato flavor. They’re fluffy, creamy, smooth and soft, and best for boiling, baking and, most importantly, making French fries. They’re not great for potato salads, gratins potatoes or any dish that requires the potatoes to hold their shape.
Red Bliss — Waxy
Red Bliss potatoes have bright red skin with creamy white flesh. They’re slightly bitter, and have a firm, moist and waxy texture. They’re best for soups, stews, boiling, roasting, potato salad and casseroles, and worst for mashing.
Fingerling — Waxy
Fingerlings are two to three inches long and thin (finger-shaped, duh) with thin, buff-yellow skin and light yellow flesh. Their flavor is mild, nutty and earthy, and their texture firm and moist. They’re great for boiling, baking, roasting and potato salads, and bad for soups.
Inca Gold — Waxy
Inca Gold potatoes have golden skin, yellow flesh and a round dumpling shape. Their earthy and nutty flavor and creamy, smooth and firm texture makes them great for roasting, mashing, boiling, potato salads, casseroles and gratins. They’re worst for soups.
Carola — Waxy
Carola potatoes are oblong with yellow skin and yellow flesh. They have a strong, classic potato flavor with earthy and buttery notes. They have a firm, creamy and waxy texture, and are best for grilling, roasting, boiling, steak fries, potato salads, casseroles and gratins. Don’t use them in soups.
Rose Gold — Waxy
Rose Gold potatoes have rose-red skin and yellow flesh. They’re mild and earthy, firm and moist, and best for baking, steaming, boiling, potato salads, casseroles and gratins. Just don’t try to mash these guys.
Purple Viking — Waxy
Purple Viking potatoes are small in size with dark purple skin and white flesh. They’re meaty, slightly sweet and buttery, and have a creamy and moist texture. They’re best for baking, roasting, boiling, potato salads, casseroles and gratins, and worst for soups.
Adirondack Red — Waxy
Adirondack Red potatoes have red skin with pink to red flesh that’s either opaque or in a starburst pattern. Their color fades with boiling, but fades only slightly to a shade of mauve after other methods of cooking. They’re slightly sweet, with a moist, meaty and waxy texture. Use them for boiling, mashing, pan frying and microwaving, but don’t use them in soups.
Adirondack Blue — Waxy
Adirondack Blue potatoes have purple skin and bright blue-purple flesh that fades to a shade of blue when mashed, and deepens in shade when roasted. They have an earthy, rich and nutty flavor, and a firm, creamy and apple-like texture. They’re great for mashing, baking, boiling, steaming, potato salads, casseroles or gratins, and worst for soups.

This protocol is for RT-qPCR for RNA quantification, using the Roche Transcriptor RT, the Agilent SYBR master mix and Roche Lightcycler instrument. The protocol originates with David Barrass from Jean Beggs' lab. It should work with minor tweaks with equivalent reagents and systems.
Notes
Reaction volumes depend on plate size and instrument. 10µl reactions work for 96-well plates, on Stratagene or Roche instruments. 5µl (electronic pipette) down to 2uL works in our hands for 384-well plates on the Lightcycler 480. 1µl works for 1536-well plates on the Lightcycler 1536. Loading a 1536-well plate with the Labcyte Echo Liquid handler has been tested by Labcyte to work down at 0.5uL or 0.25uL volume on the LC1536 (Application Note G101).
Perform +RT reactions in triplicate; -RT reactions can be single because usually a problem with -RT will show up in many sample/probe combinations.
For the qPCR plate, it is best to have each row contain a single probe (or sample), and each column a single sample (or probe), so you can load in parallel with an multichannel pipette. We use an Integra Voyager on repeat-dispense setting; fast dispensing just near the edge of the well gives nice reproducible results.
Components
- Sample: RNA resuspended in ddH2O
- Primers and primer mixes:
- 4µM mix of each primer pair for qPCR
- EITHER: 2.5µM mix of all reverse primers for RT (2.5µM each)
- OR: 60µM Random Primer mix (35 µM hexamers, 25 µM dT23VN) for RT (e.g. NEB S1330)
- RNase-free H2O
- DNase (DNaseI RNase free 1U/µl, Promega), 10x DNase buffer
- RNase inhibitor (SuperAseIn, ThermoFisher)
- Reverse transcriptase (Transcriptor, Roche; or Superscript IV, Thermo), 5x RT buffer
- PCR master mix (Brilliant III Ultra-Fast SYBR® Green QPCR Master Mix, Agilent)
- PCR tube strips, 0.2ml each, with lids
- Aerosol resistant (filter) pipette tips
DNase treatment
- Make the Sample mix in a new centrifuge tube (0.2 or 0.5ml), add:-
- 12.5µg of RNA (down to 5µg is fine too as long as its consistent)
- H2O to 8µl
- 1µl of 10x DNase Buffer
- 0.9µl of DNase
- 0.1µl RNase inhibitor
- 37°C 1hour
- 75°C 10minutes to deactivate the DNaseI.
Reverse Transcription
- Add 2.5µl RT primer mix
- Transfer 5µl (5µg of RNA) of this to 2 new 0.2mL tubes. One for +RT, one for -RT.
- Denature the RNA at 70°C for 5 minutes, then in to iced water.
- Make RT master mix, per sample:
- 2µl 5 x First strand synthesis buffer
- 0.75µl 10mM dNTP mix
- 1.5µl H2O
- 0.25µl RNase inhibitor
- 0.5µl Transcriptor, or H2O for a -RT control
- Add 5µl of RT master mix to the denatured RNA; this brings the volume up to 10 µl
- 55°C 1-2 hours if using Reverse Primers or 25°C for 5 minutes followed by 55°C for 1 hour if using Random Primer Mix.
- Add 180µl of H2O to the first strand cDNA to dilute the buffer prior the qPCR.
Quantitative PCR (4µL reaction for 384-well plate)
- Make the qPCR mix for each primer pair, for each well:
- 1.6µl 2x SyBr Green QPCR mix
- 0.4µl primer pair mix (4µM each).
- Add 2µl of qPCR mix and 2µl of the diluted cDNA to each well of the 384 well plate.
- Spin down, mix by rattling plate, spin down again
- Place in PCR machine and run amended Agilent 2-step PCR program:-
- Taq activation:
- 40 cycles of amplification:
- 95°C 5sec
- 60°C 10sec with green fluorescence reading
- Melt curve
- Step up to 65°C
- Ramp up to 95°C at 0.29°C/s
- 2 readings per second.


'U-571' (2000)
A movie review by Walter Frith
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Member of the 'Online Film Critics Society' http://www.ofcs.org
Cast - Matthew McConaughey, Bill Paxton, Harvey Keitel, Jon Bon Jovi, David Keith. Directed by - Jonathan Mostow. Written by - Jonathan Mostow, Sam Montgomery, David Ayer. Produced by - Dino De Laurentis. (Rating) > Motion Picture Association of America - Rated PG-13 (Parental Guidance 13) - Rated PG-13 for war violence. Running Length - 115 minutes. Distributor - Universal Pictures.
The submarine movie. It seems like everybody thinks they can make a successful one. In the 90's, 'The Hunt for Red October' and 'Crimson Tide' were among the most popular. But the grand daddy of all submarine movies is Wolfgang Petersen's 1982 masterpiece which re-defined the term white-knuckler when describing motion pictures. Academically efficient and technically brilliant, director of photography Jost Vacano actually developed (in an authentic submarine with cramped corners) a method that allowed the camera to run from one submarine bay to another as smoothly as if the camera were on a flat conveyor belt. This is a feat that should have won him an Oscar but instead the award was given to Billy Williams and Ronnie Taylor for their easy and mostly outdoor filming of 'Gandhi'. 'The Hunt for Red October' was a sly and extremely well written espionage film that tied itself up a little too perfectly at the end but kept in the tradition of Hollywood standards without ticking off the audience. 'Crimson Tide' had the distinction of being a superbly acted film (it doesn't get much better than Gene Hackman and Denzel Washington) with great sub woofer capabilities on the home entertainment system. The new millennium brings in yet another movie about a war time machine they now name a sandwich and this one has some pretty bland ingredients and some very large plot holes.
I also got the feeling that while watching this movie that someone behind the camera actually lost a lot of games of Battleship. You remember that Hasbro board game where people would exclaim "You sank my battleship!" I say this because the film is like a game of Battleship that someone wanted to win very badly and the characters are largely portrayed as parts of a pinball target, video game target or just about any other target you can imagine in the name of combat. 'U-571' actually feels at times like standing next to someone who has only emptied half of his roll of quarters during the routine of playing a video game and you say, "Come on. Hurry up. Let's go!"....because you're so bored after a while.
The setting for 'U-571' is World War II. Lt. Andrew Tyler (Matthew McConaughey) and Lt. Commander Mike Dahlgren (Bill Paxton) are the lead officers on a mission for the United States that will allow, in theory, for a group of navy recruits and their officers to board a Nazi submarine, in the disguise of fellow Nazis, and steal an encoding device which the Nazis will protect at all costs.  The Americans have to then fight their way aboard the submarine and steal the device while fearing an attack from their own allies, managing the vessel's incurred damage and looking after captured prisoners.
After the initial mayhem, the film becomes bogged down with repetitive vacuums of action which are handled very well with a booming sound track of refined detail but it all becomes tiresome before too long. This truly surprised me because director Jonathan Mostow mad a crackling and totally authentic Hitchcock style thriller in 1997 entitled 'Breakdown' which showed the intimacies and nightmares of violent crime and had believable performances from its cast and filled the bill nicely for two hours.
Producer Dino De Laurentis, aside from standing behind Mostow on 'U-571' also stood with him as producer of 'Breakdown' and it looks like a compromise was reached where they agreed that one would have his way on one picture and the other would have his way on the other because these two films look completely different although they have the same director and producer working on them. Even if subject matter is completely different from one project to the next, a film buff can spot the trademarks of an established produced and director that makes all of their work seem similar. The mix of collaborative efforts looks lost on 'U-571' but directors always have a better eye for films than businessmen do any day of the week. When you go back to look at the career of De Laurentis, he has been involved with some pretty dreadful movies including 'Conan the Barbarian', Conan the Destroyer', 'Dune', 'Silver Bullet', 'Year of the Dragon' and 'Body of Evidence'. The last two being razzie award nominees for worst picture of their respective years.
One thing that is mentioned at the end of the film are some of the other missions that men in real time war have given sacrifice to. This was a pleasant thing to see. Much in the same way that 'Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home' paid tribute to the men and women of the Challenger disaster of the way Oliver Stone paid tribute to the men who fought and died in the Vietnam war with 'Platoon' and 'The Towering Inferno' dedicated its title to fire fighters who gave their lives and the opening scene of 'Dirty Harry' shows a wall of names depicting deceased police officers. 'U-571' would make a great video game and it wouldn't surprise me in this age of marketing if one actually comes out.

--- layout: post authors: ["Jonah Duckles"] title: "Cape Town South Africa Workshop" date: 2014-12-04 time: "15:00:00" tags: ["Workshops", "South Africa"] ---
Last week we ran the biggest software carpentry workshop in South Africa to date. We had more than 80 participants in two rooms, each using the novice Python material. Pre-workshop assessment surveys showed that we'd have a mostly novice crew, but with a few outliers on the upper end. We accepted slightly higher than 80 enrollment cap and encouraged those with more advanced skills to evaluate their interest in becoming SWC workshop instructors themselves and help us out as helpers.
Finding participants, local instructors, and helpers was not hard. Everyone enthusiastically jumped at the opportunity to be involved in a novel way of training newbies and more experienced people in the art of computing for research. Not only was the international community thrilled to participate and help organise the event, but local institutes, Deans, Professors, Research leaders as well as Research administrators and funders pulled together to sponsor the event and attendance of students. Partial funding was obtained through a Knowledge, Interchange, and Collaboration grant from the South African National Research Foundation. When we were running low on sponsorships, the University of Cape Town (UCT) ICTS department and UCT Research Office came to the rescue. The Bioinformatics Services Platform funded by the Department of Science and Technology also generously contributed funding to sponsor international instructors' travel. Furthermore the organizers of the preceding eResearch Africa Conference, the Association of South African University Directors of Information Technology (ASAUDIT), assisted with registration of participants.
Our participants were a good mix of postgraduate students, post-doctoral research fellows, lecturers, researchers and professors, as well as IT specialists and librarians from 11 South African research institutes across four of our country's provinces joined us at the University of Cape Town. Three students travelled > 1,000km to attend the workshop.
We had an excellent venue in the Snape Engineering Building of UCT's upper campus with an area across the courtyard for food and tea throughout the workshop. Wifi, power and high resolution projectors kept us all happy and on the same page. Superb technical support staff were on hand at all times to make sure things ran as smoothly as possible for learners. Attendees were able to mingle during the two hours of tea and lunch breaks each day, forging strong research partnerships and collaborations. There was a constant buzz when the 80 learners were socializing and refueling between instructional sessions, with informal times being just as important in developing communities of practice in various disciplines.
We had a relatively even mix of Windows, Linux and Mac computers with linux users sailing through with limited problems. Mac and Windows users had various problems with the most interesting being a locale issue for Macs set to South African English trying to run ipython notebook (addressed by setting these shell variables). Other than that there were various issues with old versions of Mac OS not running Git without XCode and various other minor issues that were mostly resolvable.
Our instructors traveled from the United Kingdom, the United States,
Johannesburg, Italy and Cape Town. We had Jonah Duckles and David
Merand in the first room and James Hetherington, Bruce Becker and
Peter van Heusden in the second room. Prior to the workshop we had
worked out who would be teaching various modules and built a jovial
and collaborative teaching rapport during the conference leading up
to the workshop. Material covered was the standard novice material
covering shell, Git and Python, but not SQL. We taught shell and Git
the first day, using
a data Git
repository we had learners clone the data sets to their
computer, working out Git and network connection bugs as a
first-step. We talked about how we'd be learning more about Git, but
for now to see this git clone
http://github.com/jduckles/uct-data
command as a way to get
the files in the repo to our local machine so we could use them. By
the end of the first day we had covered shell, git local, git remote
and set the stage for learning about Python the following day.
The second day covered all of the Python modules, going at a pretty slow pace as many learners were new to programming in general. We solicited feedback at each half-day and overall we struck a good balance of challenging learners with new concepts, while not leaving them frustrated and giving up.
By the end of the second day we had a lot of interest in follow-on concepts and learners were excited to see that all of the material they had worked was available online. We had excellent conversations and connections being built around the entirety of the South African research community and the enthusiasm and energy of the participants was evdident, even though their brains were a bit fried by the end.
We had an excellent set of 13 helpers coming from various institutions: Dane Kennedy (CSIR), Heine de Jager (UCT), Ashley Rustin (UCT), Armin Deffur (UCT), Anelda van der Walt (UCT), Chris Mitshengu (UCT), Gustavo Salazar (UCT), Jon Ambler (UCT), Benjamin Hugo (UCT), Jon Zwart (UCT), Adrianna Pinska (UCT), Timothy Povall (UCT) and Eugene de Beste (UWC). They were very enthusiastic and were also learning new things while helping to get learners moving through various technical challenges and hands-on exercises.
