Ruby Net::GitHub::Upload
DESCRIPTION
Ruby Net::GitHub::Upload is upload user agent for GitHub Downloads respect to github.com/typester/net-github-upload-perl
SYNOPSIS
# require require 'rubygems' require 'net/github-upload' # setup login = `git config github.user`.chomp # your login for github token = `git config github.token`.chomp # your token for github repos = 'repository name' # your repos name (like 'taberareloo') gh = Net::GitHub::Upload.new( :login => login, :token => token ) # file upload direct_link = gh.upload( :repos => repos, :file => 'test/test', :description => "test file", :upload_timeout => 600 # Allow yourself time to upload larger files. ) # direct link is link to Amazon S3. # Because GitHub refrection for file changing is async, # if you get changed file synchronously, you use this "direct_link" # data upload # you can define content_type => Amazon S3 Content-Type time = Time.now.to_i direct_link = gh.upload( :repos => repos, :data => 'test', :name => "test_#{time}.txt", :content_type => 'text/plain', :description => "test file2" ) # replace file or data # thx id:rngtng ! direct_link = gh.replace( :repos => repos, :file => 'test/test', :description => "test file" ) direct_link = gh.replace( :repos => repos, :data => 'test', :name => "test_#{time}.txt", :content_type => 'text/plain', :description => "test file2" ) # Printing out progress (will yield to block once a second): direct_link = gh.upload( :repos => repos, :file => 'test/test', :description => "test file", :upload_timeout => 600 # Allow yourself time to upload larger files. ) do print "." end puts "."

You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA Libqrencode is a library for encoding data in a QR Code symbol, a kind of 2D symbology.
There are two methods to encode data: encoding a string/data or encoding a structured data.
You can encode a string by calling QRcode_encodeString(). The given string is parsed automatically and encoded. If you want to encode data that can be represented as a C string style (NUL terminated), you can simply use this way.
If the input data contains Kanji (Shift-JIS) characters and you want to encode them as Kanji in QR Code, you should give QR_MODE_KANJI as a hint. Otherwise, all of non-alphanumeric characters are encoded as 8 bit data. If you want to encode a whole string in 8 bit mode, you can use QRcode_encodeString8bit() instead.
Please note that a C string can not contain NUL characters. If your data contains NUL, you must use QRcode_encodeData().
You can construct a structured input data manually. If the structure of the input data is known, you can use this way. At first, create a ::QRinput object by QRinput_new(). Then add input data to the QRinput object by QRinput_append(). Finally call QRcode_encodeInput() to encode the QRinput data. You can reuse the QRinput data again to encode it in other symbols with different parameters.
The encoded symbol is resulted as a QRcode object. It will contain its version number, width of the symbol and an array represents the symbol. See QRcode for the details. You can free the object by QRcode_free().
Please note that the version of the result may be larger than specified. In such cases, the input data would be too large to be encoded in a symbol of the specified version.
Libqrencode can generate "Structured-appended" symbols that enables to split a large data set into mulitple QR codes. A QR code reader concatenates multiple QR code symbols into a string. Just like QRcode_encodeString(), you can use QRcode_encodeStringStructured() to generate structured-appended symbols. This functions returns an instance of ::QRcode_List. The returned list is a singly-linked list of QRcode: you can retrieve each QR code in this way:
Instead of using auto-parsing functions, you can construct your own structured input. At first, instantiate an object of ::QRinput_Struct by calling QRinput_Struct_new(). This object can hold multiple ::QRinput, and one QR code is generated for a ::QRinput. QRinput_Struct_appendInput() appends a ::QRinput to a ::QRinput_Struct object. In order to generate structured-appended symbols, it is required to embed headers to each symbol. You can use QRinput_Struct_insertStructuredAppendHeaders() to insert appropriate headers to each symbol. You should call this function just once before encoding symbols.


The rules: Rock beats scissors, scissors beats paper, and paper beats rock. Well beats rock and scissors because they can both fall into it. Paper covers the well, hence beats it.

Money Game. Should Red redouble? If redoubled, should White take?
pips Red=141 White=130
(CorrectAnswer= 0/0, ErrorScore= 0)
This position turned up in a session with one of my students. I was Red and doubled. He pondered a while and took. The take is very clear. If Red fans and White escapes a checker (except with 55) then it is he who is threatening to win a gammon.
On the other hand things can go horribly wrong for White and it is he who can lose a gammon. I deemed the position to be volatile enough to double.
An initial evaluation shows clear double/take but a long rollout makes the double/no double decision right on the borderline – the equity is the same either way. In a tournament I'd take the opponent factor (and the score) into account and make the decision accordingly.

Implements a DICOM storage server that provides a database, DICOM query and retrieval, and Web Access to DICOM Objects (WADO) .
The primary class of this package is {@link com.pixelmed.server.DicomAndWebStorageServer DicomAndWebStorageServer}.
Warning ... the API defined in this package is experimental and in a state of flux and is likely to be changed. DAC 2005/09/22.


Customization #
Besides parsing and evaluating expressions, the expression parser supports a number of features to customize processing and evaluation of expressions.
Function transforms #
It is possible to preprocess function arguments and post process a functions return value by writing a transform for the function. A transform is a function wrapping around a function to be transformed or completely replaces a function.
For example, the functions or math.js use zero-based matrix indices (as is common in programing languages), but the expression parser uses one-based indices. To enable this, all functions dealing with indices have a transform, which changes input from one-based to zero-based, and transforms output (and error message) from zero-based to one-based.
// using plain JavaScript, indices are zero-based:
var a = [[1, 2], [3, 4]]; // a 2x2 matrix
math.subset(a, math.index(0, 1)); // returns 2
// using the expression parser, indices are transformed to one-based:
var a = [[1, 2], [3, 4]]; // a 2x2 matrix
var scope = {
a: a
};
math.eval('subset(a, index(1, 2))', scope); // returns 2
To create a transform for a function, the transform function must be attached
to the function as property transform
:
var math = require('../index');
// create a function
function addIt(a, b) {
return a + b;
}
// attach a transform function to the function addIt
addIt.transform = function (a, b) {
console.log('input: a=' + a + ', b=' + b);
// we can manipulate input here before executing addIt
var res = addIt(a, b);
console.log('result: ' + res);
// we can manipulate result here before returning
return res;
};
// import the function into math.js
math.import({
addIt: addIt
});
// use the function via the expression parser
console.log('Using expression parser:');
console.log('2+4=' + math.eval('addIt(2, 4)'));
// This will output:
//
// input: a=2, b=4
// result: 6
// 2+4=6
// when used via plain JavaScript, the transform is not invoked
console.log('');
console.log('Using plain JavaScript:');
console.log('2+4=' + math.addIt(2, 4));
// This will output:
//
// 6
Functions with a transform must be imported in the math
namespace, as they
need to be processed at compile time. They are not supported when passed via a
scope at evaluation time.
Custom argument parsing #
The expression parser of math.js has support for letting functions
parse and evaluate arguments themselves, instead of calling them with
evaluated arguments. This is useful for example when creating a function
like plot(f(x), x)
or integrate(f(x), x, start, end)
, where some of the
arguments need to be processed in a special way. In these cases, the expression
f(x)
will be evaluated repeatedly by the function, and x
is not evaluated
but used to specify the variable looping over the function f(x)
.
Functions having a property rawArgs
with value true
are treated in a special
way by the expression parser: they will be invoked with unevaluated arguments,
allowing the function to process the arguments in a customized way. Raw
functions are called as:
rawFunction(args: Node[], math: Object, scope: Object)
Where :
args
is an Array with nodes of the parsed arguments.math
is the math namespace against which the expression was compiled.scope
is the scope provided when evaluating the expression.
Raw functions must be imported in the math
namespace, as they need to be
processed at compile time. They are not supported when passed via a scope
at evaluation time.
A simple example:
function myFunction(args, math, scope) {
// get string representation of the arguments
var str = args.map(function (arg) {
return arg.toString();
})
// evaluate the arguments
var res = args.map(function (arg) {
return arg.compile(math).eval(scope);
});
return 'arguments: ' + str.join(',') + ', evaluated: ' + res.join(',');
}
// mark the function as "rawArgs", so it will be called with unevaluated arguments
myFunction.rawArgs = true;
// import the new function in the math namespace
math.import({
myFunction: myFunction
})
// use the function
math.eval('myFunction(2 + 3, sqrt(4))');
// returns 'arguments: 2 + 3, sqrt(4), evaluated: 5, 2'

Hello, Due to the sudden death of my Father General Abacha the former head of state of Nigeria in June 1998, I have been thrown into a state of hopelessness by the present administration.I have lost confidence with anybody within my country. I got your contacts through personal research, and had to reach you through this medium. I will give you more details when you reply. Due to security network placed on my daily affairs I cant visit the embassy so that is why I have contacted you. My Father deposited $12.6million dollars with a security firm abroad whose name is witheld for now till we communicate. I will be happy if you can receive this funds and keep it safe I assure you 20% of this fund. I will need your telephone/mobile numbers so that we can commence communication.I await your urgent response. Yours truly, Mustapha

Ruby Gems for Command-Line Apps
One of the toughest things about writing command-line apps in Ruby is finding the right gems. There’s tons out there, but they can be really hard to find, either due to names that are too generic (main) or too bizzare (trollop). Searching on RubyGems and Github is OK, but not great. While speaking at conferences and writing the book, I came across a ton of wonderful gems for writing command-line apps. This page is an attempt to catalog them all.

Use the most-recently used (MRU) list to track storage items (like files, folders, etc.) that the user accesses frequently. The MRU holds up to 25 items and is maintained by Windows.
Use the future access list (FAL) to preserve access to storage items (like files, folders, etc.) in locations that are not specified by the app's capabilities, like items that are accessed through the file picker. The FAL holds up to 1000 items and must be maintained by the app.
To add to a list, select the list and then click 'Add to List'. To view the current contents of a list, select the list and then click 'Show List'. To open 'sample.dat' from a list, select the list and then click 'Open from List'.

What the latest zebkit version is
The latest (http://www.zebkit.org/ver/latest) is the version that is considered as the most stable and bug free snapshot of github version. For developers using the latest means:
What released zebkit versions are
There are also zebkit release versions are published on web site. They are identified with release year and month. The versions are updated only in a case of critical bugs that have not been fixed in subsequent versions. The appropriate artifacts are available by the following pattern: http://zebkit.org/ver/year.month/*
For instance released at May of 2017 version can be fetched with the following URL: http://zebkit.org/ver/2017.05/zebkit.js
Zebkit can be included into your project (page) one of the following manner:
Include the version of zebkit hosted on zebkit web site. The latest stable version is available by fixed URL (or choose other desired version): http://zebkit.org/ver/latest/zebkit.[min.]js
Download required runtime package and unzip it in context of your WEB server. The latest zebkit version bundle can be found with the following URL: http://zebkit.org/ver/latest/zebkit.runtime.zip
Checkout version from github and read the instruction how it can be built and used: https://github.com/barmalei/zebkit
Add meta (optionally, for mobile devices only) and script to an HTML page as follow:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<!-- The following meta is required for mobile devices -->
<meta name="viewport"
content="user-scalable=no,width=device-width,initial-scale=1,maximum-scale=1">
<meta name="msapplication-tap-highlight" content="no">
<!-- Add zebkit JavaScript library -->
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://zebkit.org/ver/latest/zebkit.min.js">
</script>
</head>
<body>
...
</body>
</html>
That is all, your page is ready to start developing with zebkit.
Zebkit stuff is organized as hierarchy of packages. Package is key zebkit structure that unites number of classes, methods, variables and interfaces that are designed for dedicated functional purposes.
Including zebkit into an HTML page adds “zebkit” variable to the global space. This variable points to root - “zebkit” - package to start with:
// request "zebkit.ui","zebkit.layout" and "zebkit.ui.grid" packages
zebkit.require("ui","layout","ui.grid", function(ui, layout, grid) {
var button = new ui.Button("My Button");
...
});
“zebkit.require(…)” method call illustrated in snippet above does the following:
Callback method is the safe place to start developing zebkit application.
Developing a custom zebkit code should be done within zebkit package concept. Re-usable components, classes and other entities should be placed in zebkit package or packages. Creation of a new zebkit package is simple:
// create new package
zebkit.package("mypackage", function(pkg, Class) {
// define package class
pkg.MyClass = Class([
function() { // constructor
...
},
function method() {
...
}
]);
...
});
Then you can use the created package as follow:
// create new package
zebkit.require("mypackage", function(mypkg) {
// instantiate class declared in your package
var myClassInstance = new mypkg.MyClass();
...
});
Package entities can be configured with a JSON. The most simple way to initiate the configuration is to pass true as last parameter of “zebkit.package(…)” method:
// create new package configured with JSON configuration
zebkit.require("mypackage", function(mypkg) {
...
}, true);
It is suppose JSON file has to be stored alone with the package JavaScript code and the name of the configuration file has to be full package name (without “zebkit prefix”) plus “.json” extension. In example mentioned above the name of configuration file is “mypackage.json”
Standard packages that are supplied with zebkit (included into “zebkit.[min.]js”) are listed in the table below:
| Package name | Description |
|---|---|
| zebkit | This is the root zebkit package that provides core easy OOP classes and interfaces. |
| zebkit.util | The package provides number of utility classes and methods. |
| zebkit.data | The package provides number of classes and interfaces to represent simple data models like text, array, matrix, tree, etc. |
| zebkit.layout | The package provides number of layout manager that can be easily adapted to layout rectangular UI elements. Zebra UI widely uses the package to layout Rich UI components. |
| zebkit.io | The package contains number of classes, methods that are helpful to communicate to a remote HTTP, XML-RPC or JSON-RPC services. |
| zebkit.draw | The package provides number of elementary renders and views that are able to draw different kind of objects: texts, shapes, images, etc. |
| zebkit.ui zebkit.ui.grid zebkit.ui.tree zebkit.ui.design |
The packages provide huge amount of different UI components that are supposed to be used to build Rich UI WEB application rendered on HTML5 Canvas element. The UI components are implemented the way they are free from WEB specific. It makes possible porting the components to other platforms and environments without the components code update. |
| zebkit.ui.event | The package provides UI events related stuff. |
| zebkit.web | The package provides number of web specific classes and methods. |
| zebkit.ui.web | The package provides implementations of required abstractions for WEB environment specifically. |
There are number add-on packages listed below. These packages are supplied in separate JavaScript files:
| Package name | Description |
|---|---|
| zebkit.ui.date | Calendar component package. |
| zebkit.ui.vk | Virtual keyboard implementation. |


According to rumors, the mouth of this creature is dotted with thousands of sharp teeth, and this creature is able to swallow everything that comes its way. There is no reliable data on what exactly this monster looks like, but there are stories in which entire villages disappeared into its bottomless mouth. According to legend, a more detailed description of Selkimora can be given by the witcher Geralt, who, before killing her, examined this beast both from the outside and from the inside.


One night, a couple of my friends and I went to my friend's party. There, I saw an old friend of mine who looked like she was on some major drugs because her hands were shaking really bad and she just didn't look too good. So I asked her what she was on and she told me 'speed' as she laughed and then she said, 'No, really I'm on some dietary supplement called 'Yellow Jackets'' I was really surprised and she took me and a couple of my friends to go get some. So I took 2 of the striped pills and my other friends took 3.
So we went to shoot pool at the pool hall as we were waiting for the pills to kick in. For an hour nothing happened and I kept saying that these pills weren't going to work. Then all of a sudden as I was waiting for my turn to shoot, I had a crazy hot flash, began to sweat a little though it was cold out and I felt a little dizzy. I ignored this sensation and went for my turn. As I was aiming to shoot the ball, my hands starting trembling and I couldn't concentrate. So I asked my friends if they were feeling it yet and they said that they were feeling real hyper, but that was about it. At that we decided to go driving around.
As we were driving for a long period of time I felt strange and everything looked a little fuzzy. All I wanted to do was stay in one position and not move. My jaw was jittering a little so I had to chew some gum.  I had slight sexual urges, but not enough for me to actually do something about. My skin felt a little tingly too. About 30 minutes later I began to feel as if I needed to throw up(this may have been b/c i get car sick sometimes and the pills intensified that sickness) and my eyes began to get droopy, though i was wide awake.
Later when we got back home me and my friends tried to go to sleep, but we couldn't. All we could do is lay still, keep our eyes shut and think. None of us really felt like talking though we wanted to. None of us slept at all that night and continued not to sleep right for about 3 days (though we got more sleep the following nights). It also effected my short term memory the days after because a few times I forgot little things. For example, one day later at school I was trying to find my keys to go home, but I didn't see them at first so I began to panic because I could NOT remember how in the world I got to school that day! Then I found my keys and realized that I must have drove to school even though I still couldn't exactly remember.
Pretty freaky pills, but not really worth doing all the time. I'd rather just smoke weed or something.

Generate the project
To generate this project locally, you need xcodegen. It is a great tool to customize a project and generate it on the go.
You can either install it manually following their steps, or just run my setup.sh
script. It automatically installs Homebrew if it is missing, installs xcodegen
, removes existing (if present) .xcodeproj
, run xcodegen
and moves configuratiom files to their appropriate place.


We'll be making code and tools that make Kato possible available here. We love community contributions so hack away.


Dr. Bliss was one of the first scientists to research crustacean hormones with the eyestalks of crabs. Bliss was able to discover the X-organ-sinus-gland complex located in the eyestalk. This complex allows hormones to be released into the bloodstream which affects molting, water balance, blood glucose, limb regeneration, and the position of retinal pigments.

Abstract base class for cameras. This class should always be inherited when you build a new camera.
Creates a new [name]. Note that this class is not intended to be called directly; you probably want a [page:PerspectiveCamera] or [page:OrthographicCamera] instead.
See the base [page:Object3D] class for common properties.
Read-only flag to check if a given object is of type [name].
The [page:Layers layers] that the camera is a member of. This is an
inherited property from [page:Object3D].
Objects must share at least one layer with the camera to be seen when the
camera's viewpoint is rendered.
This is the inverse of matrixWorld. MatrixWorld contains the Matrix which has the world transform of the Camera.
This is the matrix which contains the projection.
The inverse of projectionMatrix.
See the base [page:Object3D] class for common methods.
Return a new camera with the same properties as this one.
Copy the properties from the source camera into this one.
[page:Vector3 target] — the result will be copied into this Vector3.
Returns a [page:Vector3] representing the world space direction in which
the camera is looking. (Note: A camera looks down its local, negative
z-axis).

|
| Teaching Method |
- All sessions are conducted in a secure environment. This may mean the standard programming environment or via laptops issued solely for the purposes of the module use. Each session starts with introducing the theoretical foundations relevant to adversarial
activities of interest and relevant artefacts.
Afterwards, we set up an environment to replicate the adversaries' tactics, techniques and procedures. Generated artefacts of adversaries'
activities are then collected and analysed.
Finally, collected artefacts are analysed based on their evidential value and the session is completed with a discussion about lessons learned
in that session.
- The practical exam(s) will evaluate students' ability to conduct in-depth threat hunting on different platforms and extract artefacts from
memory, file system and network data in a forensically sound manner. Students will also be required explain what they are doing, and to be
able to articulate ethical issues applicable to what they've done;
- For the assignment students should conduct a forensics investigation of an emerging cyber platform, document their findings, and compile
a report encompassing literature survey and results of their investigation;
- The lectures and lab sessions are sufficiently diverse to cover LO1, LO2, LO3, LO4 and LO5.
|
| Feedback |
Assignments marked using published criteria, submission
commented and returned by MOLE within 3 weeks. Students will meet with their supervisors regularly (and, where relevant, external clients) to discuss progress and problems encountered,
and to review issues that arise during the project. Formative feedback will be provided by:

JD Rockefeller Token name: Rockefeller hereinafter referred to as JDST!
The JDST development team comes from the top talent incubator in Europe. The first-class blockchain team led by Professor Edward Adam Davis of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, with high-tech cutting-edge technology as the core, focuses on the blockchain finance field, with strong technical strength and rich industry experience, Is committed to building a global defi ecosystem and providing users with a complete decentralized financial platform.
This is a DeFi (Inclusive Finance) project based on pure financial attribute genes developed by major public chains. As the governance token in the system, BTCT exerts application functions such as circulation, exchange, voting, investment, stored value, pledge, etc.
The foundation will subsequently launch DeFi tokens based on major public chains, and only JDST can be used for initial funding.
The preaching community includes the founder of the early vds shadow community, the baer chain cto Scott Bingley, one of the founders of the original radar coin, the puls early evangelistic community, the ADA early evangelistic community, and the major overseas Bitcoin miners.
It aims to integrate the participants of various project circles and old players to create the first pure financial public chain in the currency circle, the world's first DiFi insurance mechanism! One month after going online, it was lower than the issue price. All community users get 80% of claims. Behaviors in the secondary market do not participate in claims settlement. Reached 5000, 10000, 20000, 40000, 80,000 coin holding addresses. Each time a condition is met, 500,000 BTCT will be destroyed, and 5% will be repurchased and destroyed every 24 weeks. In the end, only 100,000 BTCT are left in circulation. With the joint governance model of the foundation and the community, extreme deflation and sustainable dividends!

Sean McGrath wonders about loading XML; particularly, he notes a claim that XML serialization and deserialization (parsing) is faster than Java's object serialization of a DOM, and wonders about Python's serialization (via pickle).
If you think about it, it makes sense. First, we're talking about serializing an in-language representation of an XML document; you can serialize any object to XML (e.g.), but that's bound to be slower than the native serialization, since the native serialization (if implemented properly) is more compact.
But XML isn't hard to parse. It's quite restrictive, and a good XML parser that produces a DOM object will mostly do the work it needs to do, and no more. And you can't get a lot more compact than the XML document, unless you are performing some sort of compression (which has performance penalties of its own). If you used generic serialization, the disk representation would have to contain all sorts of metadata about Node objects and Attribute objects and whatnot. Not only is that more data to read through, but generic deserialization has to actually pay attention to that information.
This was something I played with back when trying to optimize Kata 19. In that case, I was reading /etc/words, and creating a graph based on those. I thought I could save some effort by saving a pickle of the graph that I created. But in fact it was dramatically slower -- the pickle was much larger, and merely the extra effort of reading the file outweighed the effort that went into constructing the graph. The graph itself was merely a dictionary; and marshal (which is more restrictive than pickle) wasn't significantly better.
So, I imagine it can be the same with XML -- either way you have to rebuild the objects, and XML is of course well-suited to producing an object that represents XML.
I think Java is more fast than XML serialization, it's just on the Windows platform some slow-downs.

Study tracks genomic changes that reinforce darter speciation

When they share habitat, orangethroat and rainbow darters tend to avoid one another, even though they are closely related and can produce "hybrid" offspring. The males compete with males of their own species and will almost always ignore females of the other species. A new study offers an analysis of the genomic changes that occur when these fish hybridize, offering insight into the gradual accumulation of incompatible traits that likely drives them to diverge.
The researchers report their findings in the journal Molecular Biology and Evolution.
Scientists have spent decades trying to understand the factors that allow closely related organisms to evolve into separate species, said Becky Fuller, a University of Illinois professor of evolution, ecology and behavior who led the research with study lead author Rachel Moran. Now a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Minnesota, Moran conducted the research as a graduate student in Fuller's lab.
The most obvious driver of speciation is geographic isolation, but other factors also contribute, Fuller said.
"For example, two populations may randomly develop anatomical or physiological differences that prevent them from successfully mating with one another," she said.
Other behavioral and genomic changes that contribute to species divergence are subtler and more difficult to track, Moran said.
"We were particularly interested in comparing the orangethroat darter with the rainbow darter because the two species co-occur and can form hybrids," she said. "Interspecies mating is costly for these fish, as it does not result in healthy offspring."
If the offspring die, they fail to pass their genetic heritage to the next generation. Those lineages with a proclivity for interspecies mating gradually die out.
"Consequently, when the two species co-occur in the same habitat, they evolve strong preferences to mate with their own species and ignore the other species," Moran said.
To understand how genomic factors influence this process, the researchers mated orangethroat and rainbow darters in the lab and analyzed the genomes of the few hybrid offspring that survived past hatching. They sequenced the genome of the orangethroat darter and conducted a series of analyses to determine which regions of the two species were misaligned.
"We found that areas of the genome that had a lot of genetic divergence between the two species likely contributed to their reproductive incompatibility," Moran said. These differences are widespread and include problematic variations in the sequence and order of genes on the chromosomes.
The differences would likely disrupt cell division and could alter gene expression in hybrid offspring, Fuller said.
"This study opens a window on the post-reproductive mechanisms that contribute to the evolution of differing traits in closely related species," Fuller said.
"How species that exchange genetic material through hybridization are able to coexist and remain distinct from one another has puzzled evolutionary biologists for decades," Moran said. "The insights we've gained from this study have hopefully gotten us a little closer to answering that big question."

This is Football (S1)
From a Liverpool supporters’ club helping to heal rifts opened by Rwanda's civil war to a profile of the world's greatest ever player, Amazon’s original documentary series is a love letter to the beautiful game told through six hour-long films.
An exploration of the football phenomenon and its power to transcend sport, This is Football’s stories will appeal to those who’ve never kicked a ball in their lives as well as die hard fans. Live many Amazon-made series, it’s also available in 4K with HDR for those with compatible TVs.

The Boys (S1)
What if superheroes were not only real, but as full of fears, doubt and crushing character flaws as the rest of us? That’s the premise behind this superb comic book adaptation from the producers of Preacher, in which a bunch of world famous costumed crusaders are owned and controlled by Vought, a ruthless corporation that keeps their bad behaviour – which ranges from voyeurism and drug abuse to outright murderous psychopathy – under wraps to keep the cashflow moving.
When one super-powered outrage leaves a young man bereaved and hellbent on revenge, he joins a group of like-minded vigilantes with the aim of bringing Vought down once and for all. Effortlessly blending humour, action and drama, The Boys manages to be Amazon’s best original series in ages.

Good Omens (S1)
Lovers of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett’s cult fantasy novel have for years been crossing fingers, toes and other body parts in the hopes that one day, somebody would take a chance on a screen adaptation of Good Omens – and that somebody turned out to be Amazon. The result is this glitzy, star-studded six-part miniseries.
Set in modern day England, it focusses on a demon and an angel (the very watchable David Tennant and Michael Sheen) whose eons-old friendship faces obliteration (along with the rest of the world) as the Antichrist comes of age and Armageddon looms. With the supporting cast including Jon Hamm, Frances McDormand, Miranda Richardson and Michael McKean, and Amazon's deep pockets providing the necessary budget to really bring the novel to life, the fanboys and girls’ waiting has not been in vain.
Watch Good Omens on Amazon Prime
The Expanse (S1-3)
Game of Thrones with spaceships? That’s a lazy and reductive way to describe The Expanse, but also pretty accurate: it has a massive cast of characters, many of whom are shaded with more grey than an army of raccoons; its story is based around conflict and scheming as various factions vie for power while potentially ignoring a much greater existential threat; and it’s packed with graphic sex, violence and language. Hell yeah!
Set in a period when humanity has conquered the solar system and a war between Earth and Mars seems to be looming, The Expanse is a thoroughly enjoyable sci-fi space opera in a largely believable representation of the future. It was set to be prematurely cancelled by original maker SyFy after three seasons, but Amazon has now not only acquired full rights to broadcast the show but plans to make further seasons – great news for the millions of fans already addicted to its twisty plot lines.

Don’t Worry, He Won’t Get Far on Foot
Gus Van Sant’s well-crafted biopic stars a memorable Joaquin Phoenix as John Callahan, an alcoholic who embarks on one bender too many, resulting in a devastating car crash. Paralysed, plunged into a deep depression, and still boozing, Callahan eventually finds solace in friends, art and the twelve-step programme.
Phoenix is typically excellent as the often-unlikeable Callahan, and there’s also superb support from Jonah Hill and Rooney Mara. A funny, thought-provoking and inspiring tale about conquering your worst impulses and “choosing life” – which very little of the sentimental cheesiness that often creeps into such films.
Watch Don’t Worry, He Won’t Get Far on Foot on Amazon Prime
Forever (S1)
The world isn’t short of wry, quirky comedy drama series delving into the crushing ennui of modern life (!) – but Amazon has taken the time to furnish us with another one. Luckily, it’s a delightful surprise.
Starring Maya Rudolf and Fred Armisen as a married couple struggling to cope with an encroaching middle-aged itch, Forever fools you into thinking it’s a certain type of show before unexpectedly transforming into another. Funny, smart and touching, it’s one of Amazon’s best recently original series.
The Romanoffs (S1)
Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner didn’t think small when plotting his followup series. Each episode of The Romanoffs is its own feature-length story with a separate cast and setting, and each is made with the sort of care, wit and attention to detail that has made Mad Men one of the most highly-regarded shows of recent years.
The one thing linking the eight stories? Each concerns a character or characters that believe themselves to be descended from the ousted Russian royal family. Aside from that, you’ve basically got eight individual movies to enjoy at your leisure, each with a superb cast and script. Funny, touching, insightful – The Romanoffs is a rare piece of prestige TV that doesn’t feel padded out, sensationalist or dumbed down. It’s a treat, in other words.
Watch The Romanoffs on Amazon Prime
Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan (S1-2)
Even if you don’t already know who Jack Ryan is, this big budget series has “Tom Clancy” in the title, so you should know the drill: we’ve got espionage, counter-espionage, international terrorism and a somewhat questionably gung-ho attitude towards what actually constitutes torture! Hell yeah!
The Office’s lovable everyman John Krasinski takes on the role of Clancy’s CIA analyst and all-round American hero, previously played by Harrison Ford, Alec Baldwin, Ben Affleck and Chris Pine. If you were thinking this casting meant a more nuanced view of US foreign policy than you’d have got from a Clancy adaptation while the notoriously pro-intervention author was alive, well... you’d be wrong!
With Michael Bay among the executive producers, perhaps we should have known this’d be a little lacking in the sort of shades of grey you’d find in, say, Homeland. If you can stomach the jingoism and simply enjoy this for what it is – a boy’s own techno-thriller spy story – then you’ll find it a slick, pacy ride that looks and sounds glorious on a 4K TV.
Watch Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan on Amazon Prime
Last Flag Flying
Produced by Amazon Studios and directed by indie darling Richard Linklater, Last Flag Flying stars Steve Carell, Bryan Cranston and Laurence Fishburne as a trio of Vietnam vets reunited after decades apart.
The reason? Carell’s son, also a marine, has been recently killed in Iraq, and his body is being flown back to the US for a hero’s burial at Arlington Cemetery. Carell wants his former comrades-in-arms to be there when he says goodbye to his boy – and while they make the long trip from Delaware to New Hampshire, the three discuss war, duty, religion and patriotism, as well as confront their own actions of 30 years previous.
Linklater’s restrained direction puts the focus on the dialogue and the three leads, each of whom delivers a fine performance, and in many ways this feels like a play rather than a movie. As an exploration of friendship and America’s attitudes to war, it’s a powerful and engaging piece.

The Big Sick
Silicon Valley star and stand-up comic Kumail Nanjiani plays himself in this dramatisation of he and his wife, the writer Emily Gordon (here called “Emily Gardner” and played by Zoe Kazan), met each other, fell in love and married.
An enjoyable culture-clash romantic comedy revolving around Nanjiani’s desire to lead a regular American life while his Pakistani parents pressure him to enter into an arranged marriage with one of several women he barely knows, The Big Sick really takes off when Emily is taken seriously ill, forcing our hero to confront the two sides of his life – not to mention meet her parents, played by Holly Hunter and Ray Romano, who prove the film’s highlights.

The Marvelous Mrs Maisel (S1-2)
Missing Mad Men? A mind for something else in the mid-century Manhattan milieu? The Marvelous Mrs Maisel might be the new series for you.
House of Cards’ Rachel Brosnahan stars as Midge Maisel, a vivacious, fast-talking housewife with what she thought was the perfect 1950s New York lifestyle: husband, kids, beautiful Upper West Side apartment, the works. When sudden upheaval turns that all upside down, she decides to pursue a career in standup comedy – and discovers she has something of a talent for not only making people laugh but for hitting upon life’s truths and enigmas while doing it.

Transparent (S1-5)
Amazon had been trying to “do a Netflix” by creating its very own blockbusting, awards-grabbing TV series for ages, and Transparent is that show. For a start, it’s bold and inventive - it tells the story of a 60-something divorcee announcing to his three grown-up kids that he’s always felt different and is now going to live as a woman.
Sounds heavy, and it sort of is, but it’s also darkly funny, with a degree of wit and sharpness that’s still rare even in this golden age of TV. The bickering between the three kids (each of whom is riddled with their own individual issues and peccadillos) is as chucklesome as it is awkward and real. Amazing telly.
Watch Transparent on Amazon Prime
Sneaky Pete (S1-3)
With Bryan Cranston sitting in as both chief villain and executive producer, Sneaky Pete is the perfect choice for Breaking Bad fans looking for a new addictive TV fix.
In fact, this Amazon Original (available to stream in gorgeous HDR and 4K) stands strong enough on its own merits, having little in common with Cranston’s other show aside from a plethora of tense situations from which its hero – a likeable conman played by Giovanni Ribisi – must extricate himself through a combination of luck and skill. Well, that may happen when you turn up on a family’s doorstep falsely claiming to be their long-lost grandson.
With a charming rogue’s gallery of a cast and a plot that keeps you gripped and guessing until the end, Sneaky Pete is one of the few Amazon Originals that sits up there with Netflix’s best original series.

The Grand Tour (S1-3)
Clarkson and company’s Top Gear-beater is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of deal; if you’re an oily-fingered petrolhead, or simply into watching ageing boy-men on banter-fuelled road trips, you’re going to enjoy this jape-packed series a lot.
If you can’t stand this brand of overbearing laddishness, The Grand Tour isn’t going to transform you into a believer – but for anybody looking for some beautifully shot (4K! HDR!) mindless entertainment to grace that new Ultra HD telly, this impeccably-produced show fits the bill perfectly.
Watch The Grand Tour on Amazon Prime
American Gods (S1-2)
This mega-budget drama from Bryan Fuller (previously show runner on Stuff favourite Hannibal) is based on the beloved Neil Gaiman novel, and weaves together cords of ancient mythology, modern mythology, Americana and pop culture to create a modern fantasy tale – a tale about immigration, above other things.
The cast includes the classy likes of Ian McShane, Peter Stormare and Gillian Anderson, but British viewers will be shocked to see former Hollyoaks hunk Ricky Whittle in the leading role – and doing a very decent job along with it.

Michael Dorman is superb as permanently put-upon spook John Tavner, who really just wants to be a folk singer - only for life to keep conspiring against him.
The clever plot takes in Iran, nuclear weapons, a single-minded Luxembouger cop and a lot more info about industrial piping than you could ever care for, it’s genuinely laugh-out-loud funny at times and the acting throughout is excellent. A real winner.
Preacher (S1-4)
OK, so this one is an Amazon Exclusive rather than strictly an Amazon Original Series, but it's more than worthy of inclusion anyway. Because while it was always going to be tough adapting Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon’s beloved comic book series into a TV show, the makers of Preacher have made an impressive job of it, and viewers have a full four-season arc of wildly entertaining chaos to get to grips with.
The show isn’t afraid to go its own way. Rather than plunder the books’ storyline wholesale, it seems more interested in nailing the themes and characters – a move likely aimed at ensuring those who've already gorged themselves on the comics don't end up retreading familiar ground.

I've drunk caffeine since I was 14 years old. In fact, I spent a large amount of time as a teenager scoping all the coffee houses, becoming friends with all the 'regulars' (if not a regular myself). I never saw anything wrong with caffeine--it is in soda, and my parents together must drink over 12 cups a day. That is, I never saw anything wrong with caffeine until the night I was stuck in bed with a palpitating heart and panic attack, unable to write my 10 page paper for my anthropology class.
For those of you interested, I am an experienced drug user including the likes of methamphetamine, cocaine, LSD, MDMA, Ketamine, marijuana, GHB, Alcohol, Inhalants, Morphine, nytol, kava, nitrous, tobacco, and zoloft(for my depression). It is not as if my system wasn't used to being inhabited by chemicals. But, for some reason, the night I planned to write my anthropology paper was a caffeine experience from the pits of hell.
I started off by drinking 3 cups of coffee to keep me awake for another 12 hours minimum. But then, I convinced myself that the dose I chose was not enough and drank 3 more cups of coffee. Then I thought, what the hell, for the extra punch of motivation, I'll take a vivarin. All of this caffeine within a time span of 2 and a half hours. This increased dosage was a poor decision on my part, because 20 minutes later I was on top of the toilet with diarrhea. My heart was beating profusely, I was struggling to catch my breath, and I felt a pain in my stomach as if I was having an anxiety or panic attack.
After using the toilet about 5 times, I decided that I was in no shape to write my anthropology paper and I convinced myself it was alright to turn it in late. I walked dizzily to my bed from my computer, trying not to awake my roomate. I lay down in my bed, disillusioned about my current state, and decided to try to fall asleep. Well, 7 hours later I was still awake and struggling for breath, hoping that I wouldn't have a heart attack. I almost convinced myself to take 2 nytol to come down off the caffeine, but I didn't ultimately because I heard that combining caffeine with nytol could result in my parents needing to visit me in the hospital.
Eventually, after hours of tossing and turning, I was able to fall asleep. I awoke happy to be alive. You see, I was in extreme panic the night before--an experience that I could relate to having a bad trip on LSD. I decided to never pull an all nighter again. I immediately threw away my vivran and began to write my anthropology paper with a clear head.
