Jamie Foxx’s They Cloned Tyrone Wraps as Netflix Reveals First Image – MovieWeb

Posted: April 9, 2021 at 2:25 am

The first image has now been released from John Boyega and Jamie Foxx's upcoming science fiction comedy, They Cloned Tyrone. Along with the image, which depicts an unknown person (possibly Jamie Foxx) adorned in dazzling, gold jewellery, filming has also reportedly wrapped on the movie, which also stars WandaVision's Teyonah Parris alongside Boyega and Foxx.

While not much is yet known about the plot of Netflix's They Cloned Tyrone, one can comfortably assume that it will involve a character named Tyrone, a clone, and a mysterious 'they'. It has previously been reported that the movie will focus on three characters who begin to investigate a series of strange happenings in their neighborhood. The comedy mystery leads the trio to uncover a conspiracy taking place right where they live, which, again, presumably involves cloning and a guy named Tyrone. A series of eerie events thrusts the unlikely gang onto the trail of a nefarious government conspiracy in this pulpy mystery caper.

They Cloned Tyrone is being directed by Juel Taylor in his feature film directorial debut, who has also written the screenplay alongside Tony Rettenmaier. The movie stars a hugely talented trio in John Boyega, Academy Award winner Jamie Foxx, and Teyonah Parris, whose characters will be named Fontaine, Slick Charles, and Yo-Yo respectively. Note that none of them are named Tyrone. While the specific details of the nefarious plot they stumble on remain a closely guarded secret, you can pretty much guarantee that the three actors will have delightful chemistry as they evade the clones of Tyrone...or whatever ends up happening.

Boyega has since teased the tone of the upcoming sci-fi comedy, comparing it to an earlier, similar science fiction caper of his, the brilliant Attack the Block. "The film is going to be like Attack the Block for stateside, I'll give you that," Boyega revealed. "Juel's making his directorial debut with the movie and he wrote a brilliant script. I mean, you don't just attract Jamie Foxx with nothing, this is a really well-written one that I think is going to be a lot of fun." Known for its perfectly balanced blend of laughs, frights and social commentary, the Attack the Block comparison can only be a promising one for They Cloned Tyrone.

Speaking of Attack the Block, director Joe Cornish recently revealed that he and star John Boyega were in the very early stages of developing a sequel. "We're working on it at the moment," Cornish said of Attack the Block 2. "John Boyega was round at my place a few weeks ago and we sat in the garden - socially distanced - talking about story ideas until it was so dark we couldn't see each other. So, yeah, we're working on that."

Having received critical acclaim for his performance in the limited series Small Axe, Boyega can currently be seen in the sci-fi thriller series, Tomorrow's Monsters. Jamie Foxx meanwhile has several projects in the pipeline, including a rumored return to the world of Marvel in Spider-Man: No Way Home, with due to reprise her Marvel role as Monica Rambeau in Captain Marvel 2.

They Cloned Tyrone does not yet have a release date but expect to see more updates now that filming is complete. They Cloned Tyrone is set to be distributed by Netflix. This comes to us courtesy of NetflixFilm.

Two youngsters lose money in fraudulent withdrawals – The Hindu

Posted: at 2:25 am

In the early morning hours of Monday, a young lawyer in the city lost 40,000 in four back-to-back allegedly unauthorised withdrawals of 10,000 each from his account with a scheduled commercial bank.

Just over an hour later, another youngster with a food aggregator met with a similar fate when 2,600 of his hard-earned money was withdrawn without his knowledge from his account with another branch of the same bank in the city.

Both youngsters reported the alleged fraud immediately with their respective branches and simultaneously lodged petitions with the Central police. I was charged 23 as charges for using the ATM of another bank, which proved that the withdrawal was made through an ATM. Since I reported the fraud immediately, I should be reimbursed by the bank within 10 days without waiting for the insurance reimbursement, said the aggrieved lawyer. The manager of the branch concerned said that the matter was with the head office, which had prima facie found the incident fraudulent. He said that it could be a case of card cloning but sought to absolve the bank of its responsibility, citing that the customer remained the custodian of the debit card.

K.S. Krishnan, joint secretary of the All India Bank Employees Association, clarified that as per a Reserve Bank of India circular of July 2017, the bank should credit the amount involved in the unauthorised electronic transaction to the customers account within 10 days where the customer has notified the bank about the fraud within 3 working days leaving her with zero liability.

Arun Prasad, another alleged victim, was told by the bank authorities that the amount was withdrawn from an ATM at Thrissur leaving just 3 in his account. The bank officials told me that I might have carelessly used my debit card credentials online, which was not the case. Besides, online transactions are cleared subjected to OTP and in this case, it was withdrawn using my ATM card while it was all along with me, he said.

The Central police are yet to register cases on the two petitions. We can intervene only when the bank confirms it to be a fraud. The petitioners have received only alerts of the withdrawals but no external communication seeking OTP or such other details as is usually the case, said A. Nizar, Inspector, Central police.

Archangel Ancient Tree Archive Restoring Old Growth Forests Internationally mynorth.com – MyNorth.com

Posted: at 2:25 am

But this is not a David Milarch storyand hell be the first one to tell you that. His vision has gone far beyond one man. Today, Archangel has volunteers all over the world, dozens of nurseries, a science advisory panel and board members who are experts in a variety of disciplinesthousands of people working to propagate our planets champion trees and fight climate change.

Were cloning the worlds oldest and largest trees that genetically have a predisposition to live several hundred or several thousand years, Milarch says. When you clone tree species state by state, country by country you start to rebuild old-growth forests. Youre bringing back that entire ecosystem.

Read Next: The Roots of David Milarch, Archangel Ancient Tree Saver

Archangel has cloned more than 130 different species of trees, creating living libraries of old-growth tree genetics. Currently, 15,000 redwoods, ranging in height from 4 inches to 15 feet are growing at Archangels facility in Copemish. The team in Northern Michigan has grown seedlings from the 5,000-year-old bristlecone pine Methuselah and 3,000-plus-year-old giant sequoias. (No one had ever cloned a giant sequoia over 80 years old.) In fact, when Milarch and his sons, Jared and Jake, first started talking about cloning ancient trees almost 25 years ago, the scientific community said it couldnt be done; that the trees were too old. But Archangel found a way, sending climbers to the very tops of trees and the ends of the branches to collect cuttings of new growth; places not yet reached by the hormones and chemicals that dont allow a tree to be cloned. The cuttings areshipped overnight back to Copemish and work begins the next day to clone them. When the trees are strong enough, theyre planted in native habitats across the worlda redwood grove in New Zealand, sessile and common oaks in Irelandthe list goes on and on.

Reestablishing our old-growth forests by utilizing genetics of the strongest, oldest treesthats what Archangel is all about, Milarch says. Its a viable solution [to fight climatechange] thats being embraced around the world. ancienttreearchive.org

How to HelpPlant two trees every year that are native species to your community and make sure they survive (you gotta water em). If you want to know more about the science behind it, read The Man Who Planted Trees. Author Jim Robbins has reported on cutting-edge science for more than 35 years, and the book will make you feel better, Milarch says.

Boldly Following Every Other Tech Company, Slack Is Cloning Clubhouse Now – Gizmodo

Posted: March 26, 2021 at 6:05 pm

Photo: Stephen Lam (Getty Images)

Slackfollowing in the grand old tradition of companies like Facebook, TikTok, and Twitteris planning on cloning buzzy app Clubhouses voice chatroom functionality.

Slack, which builds a chat room product primarily used by businesses, already allows users to place audio calls to one another. Per Protocol, Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield said in a recent Clubhouse session hosted by journalist Josh Constine that the company is beta testing a voice message function and it plans to offer on-the-fly video/voice rooms that dont require prescheduling or an actual call.

One could observe that the ongoing surge in a handful of tech firms just ripping off upstart competitors ideas is illustrative of a lack of imagination, anti-competitive behavior, or both. But in this case, it makes perfect sense, and Slack and Clubhouse are in completely different markets (business and consumer). Slack probably isnt interested in hosting the kind of freewheeling conversations with venture capitalists and other generally unpleasant people Clubhouse is known for so much as competing with video conference apps like Zoom that are eating into their business market.

Bafflingly, Slack is also planning on following Instagram, Twitter, and numerous other lesser apps in implementing its own version of Stories, the type of self-deleting video post originally brought to prominence by Snapchat. This builds on prior news that Slack is planning on expanding from an internal messaging platform to a company-to-company communications service, though one ponders whether theres any actual demand for Slack Stories or this is just another instance of a tech company bandwagoning a feature thats popular elsewhere. From Protocol:

Butterfield also said Slack would soon get an ephemeral video message feature commonly known as stories, similar to a message format originated by Snapchat and imitated by many, from Instagram to LinkedIn. Butterfield first indicated these features were on Slacks roadmap back in October. The new features come as Slack is making a push to turn its tool for internal company communications into a broader company-to-company messaging service.

G/O Media may get a commission

As Protocol noted, Salesforce chief operating officer Bret Taylor, whose company plans to buy Slack in a deal currently being scrutinized by antitrust regulators, tweeted that he was surprised by the announcement.

Slack isnt the only one cloning features. Per Toms Guide, Microsoft Teams recently copied the Slack function which allows users to start reply threads under another users messages. Slack unrelatedly rolled back another feature that allowed paying users to send invites to any other paying user after it was pointed out that it didnt have any built-in protection against spam or harassment.

Pair cloned MP’s bank card and tried to spend 2,000 online – Wales Online

Posted: at 6:04 pm

Two men have appeared in court for fraud offences, after they cloned a bank card belonging to Nadine Dorries MP and attempted to buy over 2,000 worth of luxury clothing online.

The City of London Police launched their investigation in October 2019 after Ms Dorries made a report to Action Fraud of suspicious transactions on her bank statement. The transactions related to a clothing website which Ms Dorries had never visited. She was still in possession of her bank card when the transactions took place, and had granted no one else access to it.

Cory Chin, 24, of Palmerston Road, Walthamstow, was sentenced on Wednesday 24 March 2021 at Westminster Magistrates Court to a 12 month community order. He must also complete 120 hours unpaid work and pay costs of 175.

Korri Mclean, 30, of Rayfield, Epping, appeared before the same judge but was told he would be sentenced at Wood Green Crown Court at a later date, as he committed the offence whilst serving a suspended sentence.

Both men had previously pleaded guilty to fraud by false representation on Wednesday 24 February 2021.

Chin and Mclean conspired to commit fraud, cloning Ms Dorries credit card and ordering a Canada Goose coat on the evening of Wednesday 16 October 2019 at the cost of 958. In the early hours of Thursday 17 October, a second order was placed on the same site for a Moncler jacket worth 1,080. Both of these transactions were flagged as suspicious by the clothing website as it was not possible to verify the email address provided during the order. As a result, both orders were cancelled and no payment was taken.

Officers from the City of London Polices fraud team were able to identify the IP addresses from where both orders were made. The first order was made using an IP address relating to a residential broadband at the home address of Chin. The direct debit for this broadband was also being paid from a bank account in Chins name. The second order was made using an IP address relating to a residential broadband at the home address of Mclean.

Police executed warrants at both properties on 13 November 2019, arresting Chin and seizing four mobile phones. Mclean was not present when the warrant was executed, but he was later arrested on Friday 15 November by Cheshire Constabulary, after they stopped his vehicle in Princess Street, Chester.

Evidence on Chins devices showed 12 calls between him and Mclean on the days of the offences and seven the following day. There was also evidence of the conspiracy on their Snapchat conversation history, including a message from Mclean to Chin on 17 October that said I TOLD YOU NADINE WOULD GET ME SOMETHING.

Detective Constable Warren Joseph, from the City of London Police, said: Todays result is a great example of the whole system coming together to tackle fraud effectively. Through the good work of the banks and the online retail industry to prevent suspicious transactions, the victim in this case is not out of pocket. Despite this, Ms Dorries, correctly, still made a report to Action Fraud, which meant we were able to track down those responsible for the offence and bring them before the courts.

Ms Nadine Dorries MP said: "This kind of sophisticated technology enabled theft can affect anyone and I am so grateful to the police for arresting these criminals."

This Baby Black-Footed Ferret Clone From Colorado Is Hoping To Save Her Species – Colorado Public Radio

Posted: at 1:38 pm

A small face poked its nose through the bars of a metal cage, curious about the two women whove entered the room at the National Black-Footed Ferret Conservation Center outside of Fort Collins.

Captive breeding manager Robyn Bortner opened the cage door.

This is mama, Bortner said. Normally if this was a black-footed ferret we could not do anything like were doing now, which is handling her. Its very different for us to work with ferrets that dont want to bite you.

The friendly, domestic ferret shes holding is a surrogate mom to the first cloned endangered species native to North America, which stayed hidden in the nest box.

To get the baby black-footed ferret out of hiding, U.S. Fish and Wildlife veterinarian Della Garelle used a small handling cage and placed her on the scale. She weighs in at 816 grams.

Very good weight for a female black-footed ferret, Bortner said. She has all the usual characteristics of her species which are the classic black feat, a black tip tail. And shes got her black mask.

Elizabeth Ann might look like all the other black-footed ferrets at the center, but she is unique. Shes the clone of a ferret who died in the 1980s.

Its pretty inspiring that people 30 years ago saved those tissues, in case this could happen someday. So dreams do come true, Garelle said.

The bigger dream is to get the black-footed ferret off the endangered species list, Garelle said. To help save this little mammal one of the most endangered animals in North America found in Colorado and several other states, scientists brought Elizabeth Ann into the world.

Biotechnology nonprofit Revive & Restore collaborated with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to bring this clone to life.

Elizabeth Ann stands to bring in this huge boost of diversity for the species, said Ben Novak, the nonprofits lead scientist. Today every black-footed ferret is related to each other, somewhere between a sibling and a first cousin.

The black-footed ferret was once thought to be extinct. In the early 1980s, a ranch dog in Wyoming dropped a carcass off on its owners porch. Biologists tracked down where it came from, and eventually captured the last group of wild black-footed ferrets. Only seven of those passed down their DNA.

Today, there are just 500 ferrets in the wild.

Elizabeth Ann was cloned from the tissue of a ferret named Willa. She actually has no living descendants, Novak said. By cloning her, Elizabeth Ann is actually a potential eighth founder for this population.

Habitat loss, disease and the decimation of prairie dog populations a black-footed ferrets primary source of food drove these animals close to extinction. Novak believes Elizabeth Ann embodies a paradigm shift for conservation efforts.
