Synopsis: Muldoon and Gennaro speed out to retrieve the tourists out in the park, but reach the grim realization that the tyrannosaur has attacked the Land Cruisers, dismembering Ed Regis and mortally wounding Dr. Ian Malcolm. They must return to the visitor area immediately or else Malcolm will surely die – but there's hope that Grant and the kids are alive and hiding in the park, where the motion sensors will surely spot them in no time. Discussions surround: Contrivances in plot; Park Management; Similarities and Differences with the film; and Island Layout; Corrections: Side effects: May cause you to believe it's possible to kill the tyrannosaurus...

The Text: Fourth Iteration “Inevitably, underlying instabilities begin to appear” (p. 179). This week's text is The Main Road, spanning from pages 181-191. Synopsis: Big Rex knocks down the fences in the storm, and ominously directs her terrifying attention upon everyone in the Land Cruisers. Ed Regis wets his pants and runs away, but everyone else is left in the tyrannosaur's devastating path. Lex's screams are cut off by the lowering of the tyrannosaur's head, Malcolm is flung like a rag doll, Tim is trapped in the Land Cruiser, which the tyrannosaur throws into the top of a tree, and Grant has a moment of discovery, realizing that if he remains absolutely still, the tyrannosaur can't see him – but then it kicks at him, and he blacks out upon hitting the ground. Discussions surround: Movie adaptations, The Dinosaurs, Believe me, I know! and The Iterations. Corrections: For an upcoming “Allusions” section I was reviewing one of the fundamental biotech companies that Crichton references – and I realized I've been saying and spelling it totally wrong – because I can't see or something? What I've been calling “Genetech” all this time is actually Genentech with a second N stuck in the middle! Side effects: May cause fits of terror and urination in your pantaloons. Thank you!

This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, Cozy Earth, and InsideTracker.All living things are programmed with a certain lifespan, which can be dramatically different from species to species. Humans now, in general, live twice as long as our ancestors, thanks to environmental changes and advances in medicine. But most of us spend the last years of our lives without the quality of life we really want. We've come to identify a slew of symptoms and chronic diseases as a natural part of aging, but do they really have to be?Today I'm excited to talk to Dr. George Church all about the latest science on reprogramming our genes to extend our healthspan and lifespan. Dr. George Church is a professor of genetics at Harvard Medical School, a founding member of the Wyss Institute, and director of PersonalGenomes.org, the world's only open-access information on human genomic, environmental, and trait data. Dr. Church is known for pioneering the fields of personal genomics and synthetic biology. He developed the first methods for the first genome sequence and his team invented CRISPR for human stem cell genome editing and other synthetic biology technologies and applications—including new ways to create organs for transplantation, gene therapies for aging reversal, and gene drives to eliminate Lyme disease and malaria. Dr. Church is the director of IARPA & NIH BRAIN Projects and the National Institutes of Health Center for Excellence in Genomic Science. He is the author of Regenesis.This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, Cozy Earth, and InsideTracker.Rupa Health is a place where Functional Medicine practitioners can access more than 2,000 specialty lab tests.

Outro: Centipede. The Text: This week's text is Welcome, spanning from pages 79 - 80. Sattler, Gennaro, Grant and Malcolm are suddenly faced with an Apatosaurus that Hammond has cloned, and are stupefied by what this means to reality as they know it. Hammond is proud, and he outlines their itinerary as his guests – and leaves them in the care of Ed Regis.

Discussions surround: Believe me, I know!, Island layout, Timeline, Dodgson's man, Weighin in, Elaborate security measures, Building a Mystery, and more! Corrections: I was mistaken – I keep crediting Ed Regis with the line “Welcome to Jurassic Park,” which is famously said by Hammond in the film – but in reality, nobody actually says it: quote: The group followed Ed Regis toward the nearest buildings. Over the path, a crude hand-painted sign read: “Welcome to Jurassic Park” (p. 80). It was just a sign. My mistake. I said that Dr. Alan Grant was working at the University of Utah, but of course, I was wrong, it is instead University of Denver, in Colorado. That Morrison Formation is tripping me up – the danged thing spans across too many states – that said, of course Grant was not excavating from the Morrison Formation, it was the Two Medicine Formation (probably).

Outro: Hummingbird. Text: Our point-of-view character for this chapter is Dr. Bobbie Carter, who is shocked when a helicopter arrives through a horrible storm carrying a fatally wounded construction worker. She's lied to about the injury, told that it's a construction accident, when it's clearly a mauling – and then the injured worker speaks: raptor before vomiting blood and spasming on the floor, to his death. Then the body and all evidence of the injury are whisked away by the InGen Construction Sikorsky, and they're gone forever. The word raptor makes the not-usually-superstitious Costa Rican aides at the clinic extraordinarily superstitious, because it reminds them of the hupia, a vampiric spirit that kidnaps newborns. Carter looks up the word in the dictionary and see that it means: bird of prey. Discussion surrounds how to read "Raptor," raptor bites, being sick v. being injured, the art of deception, half-baked ideas, power and safety, the Safety Dance, and Building a Mystery.

30 years ago this month the Berlin Wall came down, and Richard was there, reporting the story for ABC News. In those heady days of November, 1989, there was tremendous hope for the future of liberal democracy. In the next few years, most of Eastern Europe would emerge from the shackles of totalitarian communism.But today, populism and nativism are on the rise in much of the world. Democratic institutions, civic norms, and a free press are all facing new challenges.We speak with public affairs and political consultant Reed Galen, and look at whether the case for greater civility is overshadowed by the need to push back hard against the populists, and those who sneer at compromise, tolerance, reason, flexibility and other vital pillars of a functioning democracy."The Democrats are playing chess and Trump's eating the pieces," says Reed, who resigned from the Republican Party in 2016. "He will take your civility and squash you with it."Further thoughts from Reed on civility here.With this episode we start a new feature: Jim and Richard Recommend. We lift the curtain on what we're listening to, reading and watching. - Music: Singer-songwriter Belinda Carlisle.- Movie: "Parasite" by Korean director Joon Ho Bong.- Books: "Ill Winds: Saving Democracy From Russian Rage, Chinese Ambition and American Complacency by Larry Diamond, and "Golden Rice: The Imperiled Birth of a GMO Superfood" by Ed Regis.

What would YOU do if a T-Rex started attacking a car full of children in front of you? Turns out Dr. Grant and Dr. Malcolm behave quite differently in the novel than their movie counterparts do. Join Luke and James as they discuss the third and fourth (of seven) “iterations” of Michael Crichton’s Jurassic Park. Topics include: What makes children love dinosaurs, Grant being rough with a velociraptor, chaos theory predicts literally everything, Nedry’s gruesome end, Ed Regis’s just desserts, what a GRRM version of this book might look like, the motion-based vision problem, the T-Rex river raft chase, and finally how James would escape from the park! Join them next week for part 3, and then for their movie episode the week after when they finish with Stephen Spielberg’s 1993 film. Ink to Film is now on Patreon!

She also “accidentally” bought a bunch of books from Small Beer Press in the middle of the night (including The Liminial War by Ayize Jama-Everett and Kalpa Imperial by Angélica Gorodischer, translated byUrsula K. Le Guin). And she gives a big shout out to Sherman’s Books in Portland, ME and their store manager Josh Christie who, spoiler alert, is our next guess on Drunk Booksellers! Liberty’s a judge for Bookspan’s Book of the Month Club. Sounds rad. Liberty’s wheelhouse: anything compared to Kurt Vonnegut or The Secret History by Donna Tartt We talk blurbs. Gary Shteyngart blurbs everything, including this gem about Sloane Crosley’s new novel: “The Clasp reads like The Goonieswritten by Lorrie Moore.” It’s kinda brilliant. Liberty’s Desert Island Books: The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin, The Giant’s House by Elizabeth McCracken, The Known World by Edward P. Jones, The Secret History by Donna Tartt, The Sorrows of a Young Werther by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe, My Name is Asher Levby Chaim Potok Station Eleven Books: Blood Meridian: Or the Evening Redness in the West by Cormac McCarthy, Pat the Bunny by Dorothy Kunhardt, a Charles Portis book other than True Grit Wild Book: Calvin & Hobbes by Bill Watterson. Possibly on an iPad? With an external charger? That’s probably cheating… Originally posted by gifsboom Chapter III [42:45] In Which We Make Authors Awkward with Our Literary Tattoos Go to Handsell: Ella Minnow Pea: A Novel in Letters by Mark Dunn, The Lost City of Z: A Tale of Deadly Obsession in the Amazon by David Grann, The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair That Changed America Trade Book by Erik Larson Impossible Handsell: The Talented Mr. Ripley by Patricia Highsmith,Tampa by Alissa Nutting Liberty’s Literary Tattoos include: “What a punishing business it is simply being alive.” -from The Little Stranger by Sarah Waters “Because it is bitter, And because it is my heart.” -from ”In the Desert” Stephen Crane Goodbye Blue Monday Bomb from Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut Baba Yaga Chicken Leg House from Hellboy Juice Box w/ Drink Umbrella from The Tick Last Book Gifted: M Train by Patti Smith Liberty has very literary cats.

We've finally got around to doing one of our favourite books of all time - Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton. Our page by page guide will take you through this epic tale which is a modern classic in its own right or, for cinema fans, reads as a special extended directors cut version of the film. In the first part we meet some familiar characters (Alan Grant. John Hammond) and some less familiar ones (introducing Simply Red's Mick Hucknall as Ed Regis..). We'll also go undercover with the worlds best named evil genetic engineering corporation (Biosyn) and get our first glimpse of a real life dinosaur. It's going to be even more fun than examining a partially masticated south american lizard. If you're reading along with us, we're going from the start of the book to the chapter called 'When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth." Get your feedback to us on email: sharkliveroilpodcast@gmail.com or on twitter @sharkliveroil Next week, we'll be reading from "When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth" to "Stegosaur."

Dr. “George Church is one of the most brilliant scientists in the world,” says Steven Pinker on the front cover of Regenesis: How Synthetic Biology Will Reinvent Nature and Ourselves. Regenesis is the recent book that Church wrote together with Ed Regis, where the authors “imagine a future in which human beings have become immune […]
Dr. Church performed his undergraduate studies in Chemistry and Zoology at Duke University before moving on to Harvard University for his MA and PhD in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. He is now a Professor of Genetics at Harvard Medical School and Professor of Health Sciences and Technology at Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His work has led to advancements in the next generation of genome sequencing and synthesis of cell and tissue engineering, with the result being that he has either founded, co-founded, or advised 22 biotechnology companies. He has started the Personal Genome Project to seek volunteers to have their personal genome made publicly available. He is Director of the US Department of Energy Center for Bioenergy at Harvard and MIT and Director of the National Institutes of Health Center for Genomic Excellence at Harvard. With 50 patents and 270 papers published, 2011 saw Dr. Church's election the National Academy of Science. He recently released a book, co-written with Ed Regis, titled Regenesis: How Synthetic Biology Will Reinvent Nature and Ourselves. We asked Dr. Church to join us to discuss how advancements in synthetic biology will impact our lives, the challenges left to overcome, and the ethical considerations involved. Do listen in!
