The Scary Bits: Dead Set, Voices & the Meat Train

so our creditable pal peter hall was traveling abroad, and this is how you know that “horror geeks” is a in fact awesome fraternity: he bought me a mimic of the e4 horror mini-series insensible set! created by the insanely clever charlie brooker, dead set is about the zombie apocalypse as seen through the cameras of a big brother broadcast. it’s a five-part mini-series that runs back 140 minutes in total — and cuff, it’s really something special. knowing a bit less brooker’s snarky ways, i was half-with child this to be a jokey kind of zombie affair, but no way man: this is whole bore horror, and it’s anyone of the beat serious zombie movies of the matrix twenty years. as far as i know, dead decided is not currently at one’s fingertips through a r1 distributor, but if any hostility moving picture is worth the few extra bucks, it’s this identical. tinker’s damn good stuff, well done charlie, and thanks pete! (offical wooden set website right here!)looks like after dark has chosen their final film to next january’s event. it will be a korean cialis comprare levitra italia chiller called voices. the rest of the slate (which includes weinberg-approved titles like dying breed and the smashed) can be perused via bloody-d’s handy new breakdown. and speaking of cool fear flicks i’ve seen at festivals, the director of squirm and severance will be doing a dark ages apocalypse story called black death. coooool.and while i was glad to see a dvd announcement for the sake the midnight meat train, i got a extraordinarily nice set someone back on his once i checked out the dvd cover! cool! thanks to twitch, we now organize some more details on the r1 cold prey (norwegian slasher flick) dvd. anchor bay will be releasing the dvd on january 20. and while the new cross since ben rock’s alien raiders doesn’t strictly adhere to the flick picture show … it’s still rather nifty-looking. lastly, yikes. check out the eyeballs on dorothy mills!

TUAW talks to boxee and brings you invites

Filed under: iTunes, Open Source, Mac mini, Interviews, TUAW Interview, Beta Beat, Apple TV

Happy Thanksgiving! I’m super thankful that I have been able to spend the last 13 months blogging for TUAW and interacting with all of you. On a more superficial note, I am also thankful for my Macs and all the cool stuff Apple products enable me to do.The newest member of my Apple family is the Apple TV. Yesterday, I had the opportunity to talk to Avner and Andrew from boxee, the company behind the social media player of the same name. Boxee released an update earlier this week, but the next big version is set for December 4, 2008. Avner and Andrew were nice enough to answer my questions, share some details about the future of boxee and best of all, provide a link so that TUAW readers can join in the fun! If you want to try boxee on your Mac or Apple TV, enter your e-mail address at http://boxee.tv/tuaw and you should get an invite within 24 hours.In the comments, on Twitter and via e-mail, many of you have asked questions about boxee, its limitations and its future. I took these questions and comments to Avner and Andrew, and here’s what I got back. On .MKV support for Apple TVBoxee supports the .MKV container and if you are using a Mac mini, MacBook, iMac or Mac Pro, boxee can play back 1080p .mkv files without a problem. Apple TV is limited by its processor and GPU, and it maxes out playing back 420p and 720p .MKV content. I don’t usually deal with .MKV, but a quick Google search turned up a lot of information about programs that can be used to convert files. Apparently, the PS3 has this same limitation.Hulu performanceA number of users have complained about the quality of boxee’s Hulu playback. I also noticed a decrease in quality after the latest update. The update on December 4 is going to address this. The big problem, for Apple TV owners, is once again the limitations of the hardware. Seeing as Apple TV’s can stream HD content from iTunes (when downloading anyway), I think this is something that can be greatly improved, but it might take some time. Boxee is still in alpha and the goal is to enter beta sometime next year, so while I think the fact that Hulu is supported at all is fantastic, the Apple TV experience might take some time to fully evolve. If you are using a Mac for boxee playback, your performance will be much better.

Himalayan Oregano Oil Effective in Killing Hospital Superbug MRSA

numerous studies have shown that mediterranean oregano oil is a powerful antimicrobial, probably apt to its ingredients thymol and carvacrol. read more about the robustness benefits of oregano oil here…a research team from the university of the west of england (uwe), working in partnership with a laboratory in delhi, is investigating himalayan oregano oil as an antibacterial surrogate for mrsa. mrsa is an antibiotic resistant strain of the staphylococcus aureus bacterium, and mrsa infections occur mostly in hospitals. recent up on by uwe and sgs in delhi has shown that the antibacterial properties of the himalayan oregano oil are surely effective at killing the hospital superbug mrsa. uwe’s project leader professor vyv salisbury said, “we be undergoing done a few preceding tests and experience establish that the oregano lubricator from the himalayan oregano kills mrsa at a dilution 1 to 1,000 and further tests in the sgs laboratory found that the himalayan oregano oil killed mrsa more effectively than all 18 antibiotics that it was acheter viagra compared against. the tests show that oregano oil kills mrsa both as a limpid and as a vapor and heating in boiling water does not reduce its antimicrobial activity. this is exciting as it also means that we could believe using oregano lubricator to develop disinfectant washing powders. we now aim to conduct a focused conjectural study in partnership with sgs labs in delhi that we expectation whim give the undertaking the academic credence needed to make available oregano oil.these findings have presented a valuable opportunity to blossom a range of antibacterial products that would provide a sustainable source of income to Arcadian communities in the himalayas, and at the same time introduce an environmentally friendly means of helping to prohibit the spread of mrsa in hospitals.the project is portion of an initiative to provide bucolic communities with sources of income generated from sustainable gathering of non-timber forest products in the kullu district of himachal pradesh. origanum vulgare is a extent stereotyped herb that grows in high altitude meadows all over the himalayan region, up to now it is perceived by many villagers to be dressed no culinary, medicinal or economic value. in kullu oregano is often referred to as ‘bekaar gahaas’, or ‘useless grass’; even cows and goats don’t snack it.one of the lead partners of the design in india, biolaya organics, is a enterprise that is developing projects aimed at conserving endangered medicinal herbs, both by cultivating threatened species, and by providing alternative sources of income to herb collectors to sustainable collection and value addition of more common species such as oregano.ben heron from biolaya organics explains, “we started working with oregano because it is a species that, if managed properly, can be unexcited year after year without depleting the population in the ridiculous. our aim is to be skilled to up c release the neighbouring herb collectors the equivalent amount that they would normally collect from collecting endangered healing herb species so that they become less dependent on the extraction of these plants for their livelihoods. rise: vyv salisbury, et al. scientists win seed award in favour of himalayan oregano project. university of the west of england. november 2008.

Marine life faces ‘acid threat’

Man-made pollution is raising ocean acidity at least 10 times faster than previously thought, a study says.

Researchers say carbon dioxide levels are having a marked effect on the health of shellfish such as mussels.

They sampled coastal waters off the north-west Pacific coast of the US every half-hour for eight years.

The results, published in the journal PNAS, suggest that earlier climate change models may have underestimated the rate of ocean acidification.

Ocean pH

Professor Timothy Wootton from the department of ecology and evolution, University of Chicago, in Illinois, says such dramatic results were unexpected as it was thought that the huge ocean systems had the ability to absorb large quantities of CO2.

“It’s been thought pH in the open oceans is well buffered, so it’s surprising to see these fluctuations,” he said.

The findings showed that CO2 had lowered the water pH over time, demonstrating a year-on-year increase in acidity.

The research involved taking daily measurements of water pH levels, salinity and temperature, off the coast of Tatoosh island, a small outcrop lying in the Pacific Ocean, just off the north-western tip of Washington state, US.

As well as measuring physical factors, the health of marine life present in the coastal ecosystem was also tracked.

Professor Wootton says biological factors were missing from previous models of ocean climate systems - and that life in the ocean, or in this case on the ocean edge, can also affect seawater pH.

“Over a short time, biology is affecting pH, through photosynthesis and respiration, but current models don’t include biological activity as part of the story,” he explained.

Calcium carbonate

Every summer, Professor Wootton returned to the same sites on Tatoosh island’s windswept coasts, to look at the abundance and distribution of life at the water’s edge. He was especially interested in barnacles, algae and the dominant species, the Californian mussel.

The mussel has a calcium carbonate -based shell, which can be weakened or even dissolved by exposure to acid. Professor Wootton says the increase in acidity may be responsible for the decline in mussels noted in the study.

“Patterns show the chances of mussels being replaced are higher than for species without calcified shells,” he said.

Other species quickly move into the space previously occupied by the mussels - though one of these species, the barnacle, also has calcified shells.

To explain this apparent anomaly, Professor Wootton says the decline of the dominant species allows a window where another species may thrive - though he expects this to be temporary as the interloper too will eventually be affected by the increasing acidity.

“In the short term, the long term decline is offset by the release from competition,” he explained.

Chemical oceanography

The researchers say they were surprised that the plants and animals in their study are so sensitive to CO2 changes. These organisms live in the harsh inter-tidal zones, they may be submerged under water, exposed to the sun, then
