Moral :
Mortality : Everything has it's time, and everything dies. No exceptions.
YATI : The whole concept of the long range, near warp transport is an odd one. Is the situation on the Constantinople really that desperate that the Enterprise can't afford to drop out of warp within normal transporter range and do a proper transport? Bear in mind that the former would add mere milliseconds to their journey, the latter five or ten seconds at most. Yet in order to save this few seconds, they risked beaming the away team into a wall!
Great Moment : Data (secretly Graves) mouthing off to Picard on the bridge.
Body Count : One - Graves.
Factoid : This episode was intended as a homage to the British series "The Prisoner", which had an episode of the same name. Patrick McGoohan, who played the lead in that series, was considered for the part of Graves.
Plotline
The Enterprise-D proceeds to Graves' World, home of the noted Federation scientist Dr. Ira Graves, in response to a distress call. However, the Starship Constantinople is also in need of urgent assistance, so the ship drops out of warp at the planet for mere moments, conducting a near-warp transport to beam the crew down in the minimum possible time. The procedure is somewhat dangerous, as it greatly increases the odds of beaming down inside a wall or other object. However, the trick works fine and the ship proceeds on course to the Constantinople.
The distress call proves to have been sent by Kareen Brianon, Graves' much younger companion. She has been increasingly worried about his health, and sent the message without his knowledge. Graves is less than pleased with her actions, but has no choice but to accept the presence of the Away Team. Doctor Selar examines Graves and finds that he is suffering from Darnay's disease, an incurable and fatal condition.
Graves was a mentor to Doctor Soong, whom he jokingly refers to by the nickname "often-wrong". Graves and Data hit it off, and discuss life and death for a while. Graves reveals that he is working on a way to transfer a human consciousness into a computer system, allowing the personality to survive death. When Data reveals that he can experience death of a sort via his off switch, graves ponders where Soong might have located such a thing on the android's body...
A short time later Data returns to the rest of the Away Team and informs them that Graves has died. When the Enterprise-D returns the team beam up with the body, and it is prepared for burial in space. Data starts to act peculiarly, changing his use of language to the point where he is actually rude to people, including Captain Picard. At the funeral he delivers a rambling monologue about how wonderful Graves was, until Picard finally cuts him short. Later, as Picard gives Kareen a tour of the bridge, Data angrily accuses him of making advances to the young woman. Picard asks the android to carry out a systems check, and when Data replies that he has done so and there is no problem Picard responds that for the very first time since they met, he does not believe him. A system's check by Geordi reveals no physical problems, but Doctor Pulaski performs mental tests and discovers two distinct personalities in Data. The new, negative personality is growing in dominance, and will eventually overwhelm the original. Picard assigns a security team to follow Data; in ten forward the android approaches Kareen and announces that he is in fact Graves - he immobilised Data with the off switch and transferred his consciousness into the android. Kareen is horrified when graves announces his intention to build an android body for her as well, so they can live together forever. Angry with her rebuttal, Graves storms out.
Picard, realising what must have happened, locates Data/graves in engineering and heads down to confront him. He finds Geordi unconscious on the floor. Picard confronts graves, forcing him to realise the moral implications of his actions and arguing that he is harming those around him - including Kareen, who was hurt in the confrontation in ten forward. As Picard goads him Graves lashes out, knocking him unconscious. The action makes graves realise what he has become, and he reluctantly transfers himself into a normal computer, leaving Data's body. However, the consciousness is lost in the transition and only the bare memories retained. With normality returned, the ship continues on its way.
A reasonably good episode with some silly parts that let it down a bit. First off, as mentioned in the YATI the near warp transport is obviously a pretty pointless way to generate a bit of danger and tension early in the episode. I just can't accept that five or ten seconds is sufficiently important to risk the lives of the entire Away Team like that.
The idea of "transporter shock" is an interesting one, too. We have been told several times that use of a transporter has no ill effect on a body; in "The Masterpiece Society" Geordi dismisses the idea of transporters affecting DNA out of hand, saying it won't affect her "at all". Certainly nobody ever emerges from a transport dizzy, gasping for breath, tired, or anything else that looks remotely like it's had an effect on them - even people on the point of death, like Picard in "Tapestry", go through a transporter with no apparent ill effects whatsoever. None of that really rules out the idea of transporter shock as such... I just find it a bit irritating that transport is shown and discussed as being harmless, then suddenly becomes a little dangerous when the plot demands it in this episode, then is never treated as dangerous again.
Graves is well played, and it's great fun to watch Spiner play him in Data's body. It's a bit daft that the crew take so long to work it all out - Data is so obviously not the Data we know, it's hard to accept that everybody doesn't just jump straight to that conclusion off the bat.
I have to say, if Federation science is anywhere even remotely near being able to transfer consciousnesses into a computer/android combination, then the implications are rather massive. Essentially, it's immortality for everybody. Now it's true that this seems to depend on two giant thinkers who are well ahead of their time - graves' transfer method and Soong's positronic brain seem to be required in combination for it to work. We know that nobody has recreated Soong's work, and can presume that nobody has recreated Graves'... but really, how far ahead of the pack can these two men be? If we're sensible about it, both technologies should be easily available within a century or so at the very most, and more likely within half that. Makes you wonder what the future holds for the Federation, doesn't it?

Calling all Road Racers, some dates for your diary if you fancy some early season NCRA action.
These are great races for getting your season kick started.
Equally they are great for anybody new to the racing scene.


A smile is the best makeup any girl can wear, or should we say ANYONE can wear says Marilyn Monroe, but have you ever wondered why some people would lose confidence in showing their smiles? Or why some people lose few of their teeth? There are many factors to consider and one of those will be tackled in this article. – Gingivitis.
Let us first get to know more about gingivitis and its causes. According to Mayo Clinic, it is a common and mild form of gum disease that may cause irritation, redness, and swelling. With that said, gingivitis, when not treated and taken into serious consideration, can lead to a much more serious gum disease and worst, tooth loss. You don't want that to happen.
Ideally, healthy gums should look firm and pale pink, where your teeth fit perfectly (your teeth shouldn't look wobbly like it's about to fall off). Now, check your teeth. Can you see swollen and puffy gums? How about bloody red looking gums? When you floss, does your gums easily bleed? Do you notice bad breath, tender gums, or receding gums? If YES then you better be alarmed! These are signs of gingivitis. It's best to seek your dentist's help to alleviate these symptoms.
Poor oral hygiene can cause inflammation to your teeth and gums because of plaque build-up. Plaques are a result of food particles, such as starches and sugar, that interact with bacteria then start to form on the surroundings of your teeth. Plaques then turn into tartar which hardens under the gum line, creates a protective shield for bacteria, and causes irritation. See, the longer these plaques stay on your teeth, the more it'll irritate your gingiva. In time, swelling and tooth decay will start and a more serious oral health issue may come up.
How can you lessen your risks or eliminate gingivitis?
It all boils down to your oral hygiene. Brushing your teeth twice daily for at least two minutes and flossing at least once a day can help prevent the accumulation of food particles and bacteria in your gum line. You should also see your dentist twice a year for routine cleaning and checkups. Depending on your activities, your dentist might advise you to visit them more often than the usual. Finally, your food intake matters the most. Your food choices and your diet can definitely help lessen your risk of gingivitis. So, the next time you check your mouth, don't forget to check your gum line too! It may save you the pain and money in the future!

It is not easy to meditate on your own when you are not used to the practice, so when you have a guide which comes in the form of an audio you will find that it is a lot more helpful. Of course, there is a certain amount of commitment and determination that is also required during this time. Patience is another factor that is required in the initial stages.
It is helpful to do this in the morning because you will be more confident that you will have less anxiety and stress during the day. You will also be able to sleep a lot better when you take part in this sort of meditation in the evening. It helps you stay calm and relaxed, so this is something to keep at the back of your mind. Of course, you have to make sure that you get into a routine.
Usually one will start off with an audio version because this can be most helpful. There are also instrumental guides that are good at relaxing the body. This physical sensation is also very good because the body also needs to feel as if it is calm at the same time.
Most people start to feel relaxed and a sense of tranquillity as they begin to work with this method. However, you have to choose something that is right for you, and this depends on your level. You may find that hearing the voice is the best place to start when you are new to this type of meditation.
As you progress with this, you can also include soothing music which will help you relax even further. It is important that your whole body goes into a deep meditative state, and this will have a calming effect on you. This is particularly good for someone who is struggling to sleep.
You can also begin to picture certain images as the music and voices play a part on the brain. There are certain guides who are known to be very good at this technique. This is good for mindfulness, and this can help with mindfulness which can help with a couple of psychological disorders, so it is also something to consider.
There are also methods that you can combine as one. For example, you may want to start off with a little music and make sure that your body is completely relaxed. After this approach, you can move on to images and visualizations which will help work on the brain.
If you still need further info about guided meditation, then you are always welcome to visit our guided meditation lessons.

2021, Computer Science, Hawaii Island, Hawaii Island
Dason was born on the island of Hawai?i and grew up in Kea?au. He is pursuing a bachelor's degree in computer science—with a minor in mathematics—at the University of Hawai?i at Hilo and he will begin his junior year this fall. His career plans upon graduation include working as a software engineer or teaching in secondary education. In his free time, he enjoys exploring minimalism, roaming around places, and working with computers.
High School: Keaau High School, HI
Institution when accepted: University of Hawaii at Hilo
Akamai Project: Developing Software Interfaces for the Robo-AO-2 Adaptive Optics System
Project Site: Institute for Astronomy (IfA) – Hilo, Hawai'i Island HI
Mentors: Paul Barnes
Robo-AO-2 is an in development laser adaptive optics system for the University of Hawai?i 88-inch telescope. In order to remotely operate Robo-AO-2's flip mirrors, shutter systems, etc., software must be created that will interface with its hardware components. The programs will compile in a Linux environment, in which they can be compiled remotely over a secure shell protocol (ssh). The two main devices that will be controlled are a remote input/output (IO) device and a motion controller. Both devices were programmed in C++, and both contain a text-based interface that controls Robo-AO-2's hardware components. Since these devices are controlled remotely by Ethernet, configuring their IP addresses and port numbers was necessary to have the new software communicate with those devices. The first device programmed, the remote IO device, had its own communication library, so functions that were critical for interfacing were available to be used. The second device programmed, the motion controller, did not have any proprietary communication library similar to the prior; instead, the Boost C++ libraries were utilized. In particular, the Asio library was used to handle socket programming, which was essential for our new software to communicate with the motion controller over its designated IP address. These new programs now successfully provide remote control of their respective mechanical components in Robo-AO-2, and will become a permanent addition to the suite of software for the adaptive optics system.

Q: Why would ng-repeat fail to loop with $http.get JSON but work when it's hard coded? I have an Angular project using ng-repeat that has been working fine with a temp JSON string coded into the controller:
function DocsController($scope, $http){
    $scope.applicationData = [
    {"Item":"1", Value: "Red"}, {"Item":"2", Value: "Orange}
    ];
}

But for some reason, when I move that JSON into a file, and pull it in via $http.GET, the ng-repeat stops working. No loops, nothing- even though I can get applicationData.length and other properties off the object outside the loop:
$http.get('jsonData/docs.json').success(function(data) {
    alert (data);
    $scope.applicationData = data;
  });

In the above example, the alert shows the JSON string, so I know it's getting loaded properly. I can call {{applicationData.length}} and it will render 2. So I know the data is there, it's just the ng-repeat stops looping when the data is acquired via $http.get.
Any ideas? Many thanks!
Item template (Note that the  line {{applicationData.length}} renders properly- so I know the data is there).

Application Documents

                            <input type="checkbox" id="completedApplicationCheckbox" ng-model="trueApplication" value="option1" checked>Show Completed

                              Document Title
                              Date
                              Owner
                              Status
                              Actions

{{applicationData.length}}

                                     {{item.name}}
                                    {{item.lastModified | date:'short'}}
                                     {{item.owner}}

A: -Edit-
try using .then()
$http.get('jsonData/docs.json').then(function(data){
   $scope.applicationData = data
});

Try this:
$scope.applicationData = [];

$http.get('jsonData/docs.json').success(function(data) {
    $scope.applicationData.push(data);
});

A: I realized there was a conflict with the datatable jquery plug-in (http://www.datatables.net/). I'm afraid it won't work with Angular, because it's an excellent piece of software, but I'm having to disable it for now.

Convening Young Leaders for Climate Resilience in New York State
The Wild Center's Convening Young Leaders for Climate Resilience in New York State project increased climate literacy among high school students and teachers in New York City, the Catskills and the Adirondacks and gave students the leadership skills to help their communities respond to the impacts of climate change.
The Wild Center's Convening Young Leaders for Climate Resilience in New York State project increased climate literacy among high school students and teachers in New York City, the Catskills and the Adirondacks and gave students the leadership skills to help their communities respond to the impacts of climate change. The program worked with Cornell Cooperative Extension of Delaware County, the Kurt Hahn Expeditionary Learning School in Brooklyn, and Action for the Climate Emergency (formerly known as Alliance for Climate Education), along with NOAA, the New York State Office of Climate Change and NYSERDA. In the three project regions of New York State, project partners established Youth Climate Summits and Youth Climate Leadership Practicums as well as built on educators' interests through Teacher Climate Institutes and communicated climate change science and resilience through community outreach activities. By the conclusion of the project, we had worked directly with 3,126 high school students, 1,124 teachers and 2,333 members of the public, each of whom gained a better understanding of the impacts of climate change in New York State, a greater capacity to make informed decisions about the threats to their own regions, and a stronger connection with other community members and ongoing resiliency work. Convening Young Leaders demonstrated significant leadership in connecting with New York State's Climate Smart Communities program. Seven small, rural communities across New York State engaged in Climate Smart Communities (CSC) due to youth involvement. This emerged after partners at the NYS Office of Climate Change offered to present on CSC at multiple Youth Climate Summits. Students attended the CSC workshop, incorporated CSC into their climate action plans, contacted their local government, and encouraged them to join the program. Reaching out to municipal officials and presenting at community board meetings were tremendous learning opportunities for students, regardless of whether the municipalities joined the program. In 2020, two particularly engaged communities, Saranac Lake and Homer, received Bronze Certification through the CSC program and were formally recognized for their accomplishments. This unique partnership was documented in our Climate Smart Communities video www.wildcenter.org/climatesmart.

Q: How can I find my home again? I started my Minecraft server a little while ago. So I flew a good distance away from the place I started and began to build. Later I died down at the bedrock, and so spawned at my starting point again, and now I can not find my buildings!
How do I find the home I built again?

A: You could use a external terrain view to look for certain blocks, such as workbenches or furnaces, that you would have in you house, or just look for distinctive patterns near you house.
In future I suggest building a bed so you spawn back in your house. Or you can use F3 to find it's coordinates and walk back if you get lost.

A: I would use MCedit to find the buildings, and if you want to you can then move your spawn to somewhere close to or inside the buildings.

A: you have to have portal to the nether near or in your house and you have to have obsidian with you or just find it when your lost you need a diamond pickax to break it. you get obsidian from when water puts out a lava. you are going to need water and lava to make obsidian. you need to put four blocks of obsidian in a line then on each end of the line of obsidian you put five blocks of obsidian on top of the last block of four peaces of obsidian and then connect the ends like a square and the light one of the obsidian blocks on fire with flint and steel. so if you don't have a portal to the nether near your house you can not find your house this way. but if you do you have a portal to the nether near your house. great!!!! then you need to build another portal to the nether wherever you are right in front of you and go inside of it then you leave the portal and you will end up at the spot that you built your other portal near your house if this worked for you yay! but if it didn't I am sorry.

ChA (in uniform): Are we allowed to be in here after hours?
JH: Absolutely not. Now, pay attention: unless I ask you for specific information, the only things out of your mouth will be "yes chef" and "no chef". Indicate to me that you understand.
JH: Good. Step one is always the same: wash your hands.
JH: Okay, apparently step zero is to teach you how to wash your hands.

Blooms' voice dances across the floating waves of lonliness as they crash upon your shores of sadness. "If I" is not a club banger, and that isn't what we would expect from Blooms after her haunting debut, but there's something about this song that has a level of power that reaches deep within you and pulls at your fears and questions. After one listen you'll find your head filled with questions you never thought you had about the world and more will continue to fill your head throughout the day. It's some deep stuff with Blooms.

White Washed Flower
The man that has become recently know as the one of the masterminds behind the undeniably addicted Beyonce album is back with his second solo offering, "Dust". Boots has taken a more abrasive approach on this song, stepping away from his strumming guitars to bring a booming track. It has an apocalyptic desert sound that is calm, but has this underlying sense that something big is ready to explode. His lyrics have the ability to appear as if they just flow out of his mind and into your ears, creating an everlasting impression on your very thoughts. Prepare for the apocalypse as Boots destroys all of his competition with this faded explosion of greatness.

Olivia Sebastianelli has been working the music scene a bit under the radar as of lately. She released an EP last year, but since then not much has been floating around about any new music from her. Today, we get a new dose from this Londoner with her latest track "Sunset" that sticks with her classic acoustic sound. Olivia's overall sound is delicate like a flower about to bloom, and with that her music opens your senses and allows you to feel every emotion within you at once. "It's basically about being with someone who makes the world seem like it just belongs to the two of you if only for a few stolen hours." To us, "Sunset" reminds us walking through a garden after a short spring rain with all of the flowers just ready to bloom into the beauty of summer. Get lost in Olivia's latest as she flutters and flies through your mind.

If you haven't heard of Betty Who and fallen madly in love with her yet then we really need to talk about where you have been this past year. After having a killer 2013 with major success from her first EP The Movement and then releasing a collaboration with Peter Thomas at the very end of the year, she has proven herself an unstoppable force in the music industry. This week she released the studio version of her first single off of her upcoming second EP, "Heartbreak Dream". The track channels her signature sound of a pop goddess who knows how to rock out hard while staying true to the 80s. If you've seen Betty Who live within the past six months then you might have heard this track live. What amazes us is how perfectly the recorded version depicts the live version. It says a lot when an artist can keep a consistent sound that crosses both into the live and recorded realm. If you aren't 100% certain that Betty Who is coming for the pop queen crown after listening to this one then you better get out, because she's here and ready to claim the throne.

Magnetized To Your Taste
After dropping their debut single "Gimme Some", the unstoppable force that has been brewing Powers is back with their second offering "Money" and it will blow you away. Sticking with an electronic pop sound, this duo has crafted something we haven't heard from many of the duos flooding the indie pop scene as of lately. Powers has a perfectly executed production. Proving themselves professions, they have worked with big names like Selena Gomez and Icona Pop. What we love most about these two is how they are so diverse with what they are doing. They have crafted their own sound that catches you attention and makes you listen all the way through. At the same time, they are writing in the taste of other artists, showing how diverse and how much a powerhouse this duo is. There's no need to compare the sound of "Money" to any other artists because it can stand 100% on its own. One listen and you'll be addicted like a good drug. We normally wouldn't say this either, but after this release Powers has literally taken the cake for 2014. They have set themselves up for major success in the coming months and nothing is going to take them down from this pedestal. It is here where we stop talking and let the music speak for itself. Take a listen below and slowly find yourself going insane on how out of the world Powers is. You might just have to check into rehab for this one.

All Of Those Hearts
RY X has been making quite some noise from his debut single "Berlin" to upcoming tour this spring. What might actually be the next big thing to break through is his opening act Rhosyn, also know as Rose Dagul, with her song "Don't Keep Losing Heart". Rhosyn is the perfect fit for RY X because she keeps this strong acoustic folk sound. Rhosyn's singing echoes through the fjords of a Scandinavian country, leading into an open field and bringing sunlight into the dead of night. We can't help but comparing her to the powerful lady that is Florence and the Machine. Rhosyn has won our hearts over. There's no doubt she'll win yours over.

I Was Lost
If you've been waiting for Adele to finally make her long awaited return then this post isn't going to be exactly what you're looking for although you may just want to continue reading because this new track might just be your kind of taste. London's own Jess Glynne just dropped her latest single "Home" today and her voice reminds us of Adele in its soulful ways. Instead of a heart breaking song about love, Jess Glynne has delivered a song about the troubles of a long day where at the end of the day you get home and everything is a relief. The production has a tribal beat and dives into the realm of a Lo-Fanglike production. Jess Glynne's got the voice of an angel and her track will have you jamming out on repeat all through the day. Turn up that radio and get down.

Once again Kiings has amazed us with their latest single "Feel", proving that Wisconsin has got a lot to offer in them music scene. This track features the awe-inspiring vocals of Rae Cassidy that float effortlessly over the tribal-like drums that drive the sentimental feelings through your body and into the heavens above. The production is a perfect combination of an acoustic/African sound border lining the realm of dance music. The lightness of this track is heart warming and playful. The track tiptoes across the sky leaving ripples in the clouds. Take one listen and you'll feel the connect that this track has the potential to be a lost Foxes track that's finally emerging. Kiings have proven that they are stopping at nothing to be the kings of pop production.

Can't Stop Running
Starar has been releasing music for over four years and has been making changes to their sound for each release. It might just be that they have been trying to find that right sound, being creative and true to the music they were being inspired by at the time their music was written. Recently this duo released their latest single, "Unbelievable", which has a quality of a 60s/70s rock vibe with the crashing cymbals and faded sound. The beginning lets the guitars shine, leading into a the continuous building of a true classic rock sounding track. Starar has clearly shown that they have been working hard on music these past four years and have been working to create some unforgettable music.

Fucked Up So Bad
Today, we bring you a track that is almost as if you cut open your heart and let you emotions flow out into a song. RÁJ has done just that with his second official single "Let Me Love You". The song is melancholy with the simple strumming of a guitar over echoing sounds that haunt a side of you that once loved someone you knew you could never have. After the first chorus it picks up with a scratching otherwordly sound that reminds us of frozen raindrops hitting the windows on those days that are cold, but not yet frozen. There is a sense of warmth to this unforgettable track by RÁJ that almost feels like it was made for a vinyl release. RÁJ is definitely one you'll want to watch this year as he let's his heart pour out through his heart wrenching songs.
Labels: RÁJ
Crushing Hearts
We've been keeping an eye out on Coasts for quite some time and finally we get a new track from this Bristol Brits. "A Rush of Blood" continues where they left us last year. This new song has got a ramped up beat that builds into a high energy frenzy that is the perfect indie rocker sound. Its songs like these that remind us of summer, blasting them in the car, singing along to ever word as the day speeds by. Coasts reminds us a lot of the high energy of Two Door Cinema Club mixed with that arena sound of the new comers Secret Company. Get into your car. Plug "A Rush of Blood" into your stereo and zoom on off into the sunset, cruising at the speed of light.

Restless Skin
This fall East of Ely made quite some noise with their single "Came Without". Now a few months later, we finally get the visually-pleasing official video for this hot jam from down under. The video is filled with neon lights, graffiti, and darkened nights. The artistic value of video perfectly compliments this killer track that has that indie/rock, danceable quality. You'll find yourself hooked on East of Ely after this if you aren't already.

If you're from Australia and familiar with Triple J Unearthed then you're probably familiar with PJ Wolf, who has traded in his guitars for some synths to craft a new project that goes by the name of Thief. Driven by a trickling synth, his latest release "Closer" leads through lyrical verses that drive into a hornlike chorus that showcases his range of voice that's filled with frustration towards a love that isn't working. Thief's playfulness reminds us a lot of EXROYALE and Vimes with its electronic infusion that's peppy and very much an up-and-coming sound. What out world because Thief is coming for you!
Labels: EXROYALE, Thief, Vimes
Where'd You Go?
We've been searching long and hard for that song that just screams hidden gem. This hidden gem is definitely the debut single "Ghost" by Halsey. This girl has got an extremely high energy sound fused with a percussive Ellie Goulding-like beat that's borderline dance. Her vocals ride between the realm of CHVRCHES and pure pop diva. From the first beat you get this sense of fierceness that chills your body, but makes you latch on for the ride craving more as each second passes. The verses flow effortlessly from her mouth in a rap-style form transitioning perfectly into the aw-inspiring chorus. This girl has got the talent and the lyrics that are going to launch her into superstardom. Keep your eyes on the lookout for this talent.

I Want Your Problems
You better be ready for a journey through your dreams with this one coming to us from Gallant. This Los Angeles kid gave the world his latest offering "Forfeit" which takes you through a haze of dreams and smokiness. His lyrics flow off the tongue with his invigorating vocals that are effortless in every way possible. The smooth R&B vibe calms the mind as it elevates you into the air making you feel weightless. There's something to say when a song can take you on that deep of a journey. Gallant is proving himself to win over your heart with just one listen of this track that's the soundtrack of your dreams.
Labels: Gallant
Broken Down System
There's nothing like some smooth R&B coming to us from the sunny state of California and that is just what Mega is doing with their track "Forget The World". Mega has a very minimalistic sound quite similar to White Royal, but is filled almost with a 70s funk groove that keeps the track moving forward. Their lyrics channel a simpler kinda of life, carefree and sunny in every way possible. The Cali guitar strums perfectly capture the surging waves as they wash up onto the shore of a white sand beach. Mega has that perfect indie rock sound that pushes the boundaries on the genre. For now we can only wait to see what Mega has in store for 2014. Hopefully its more grooving tunes with a sun-filled glow.

Let's Just Forget
The brilliant band CHVRCHES are working on more than just making their own music. They are currently jump starting their own record label with their first release by talented 17-year-old Soak. The title track off of her upcoming EP "Blud" is another one to add to the list of mature teenagers proving the world wrong. Her voice is effortless, with a distinct accent that captures your heart. Her folk sound captures remnants of an Ásgeir track strumming to the high lands. There's so much innocence and beauty behind Soak's music that you picture it perfectly accompanying a sweet movie about love. Soak is already killing it by already having toured with Tegan and Sara and now touring with CHVRCHES. With a team this powerful behind her there's no stopping her as she climbs to the top.

Love Is All I Need
There's one girl you're going to want to keep a look out for this year and that is London's own Only Girl. Her latest release "Bittersweet" comes to you with an Ariana Grande feel. Her voice is sweet and innocent while there's an underlying flare that makes you love her more and more. She's fierce, yet her soothing R&B sound makes you swoon at every note. There's no point where you find yourself falling out of love with her voice that echoes off the hills like a true superstar. She's very much like a smooth, classic R&B version of Marlene ∞. Basically Only Girl will be the "only girl" you'll want to listen to for days on end.

Keep Me Company
Coming into the music scene with an anonymous release, Blooms brought us her lustful debut "Skin". Skin has a minimalistic sound driven by mono sounding synths that keep things smooth and elegant. Her vocals have an Imogen Heap quality that are light as a feather and smooth as ice. She builds the song to a climax where her soundscapes push the song out of this world into a new dimension. Blooms will take you on a journey out of this world with this debut. There's no telling where she'll go with her next offering which will be dropping on Dusk, Dais, Dawn this spring.
Labels: Blooms, Imogen Heap
Sparkle Like A Savior
A little something new coming from the UK today. Cash+David is a new band coming to us with their crunching California beach sound with a debut single "Funn". The very beginning has the makings of a NONONO song, but builds into sun washed echoes of guitars. Transitioning from a haze Cash+David dive into the ocean waves of a crunch rock sound. This hot new band has got the makings of The Chain Gang of 1974 rock sound mixed with the soaring electronics of MVSCLES taken to a darker level. "Funn" has that feeling of an old surfer movie, riding that wave of a lifetime, risking everything for that adrenaline. Just with one listen and you'll immerse yourself in your inner rocker sitting on the beach watching the waves roll in.

I Kissed A Man
King Avriel has been on our radar as rising talent coming from the L.A. area with her smooth R&B style that dips its toes into the top of a trap-stylized sound. Yesterday, she dropped a video for her song "Freedom" which basic yet filled with layers that make you delve into unanswered questions. The song itself is very short, coming in only at a minute and a half, but she proves in that time her talent and creativity with this video. Definitely watch out for King Avriel as she has the drive and energy to come for the throne.

Bad Times Are Coming
There has been so much undeniably great talent emerging from the UK so far this year, but after today one might just have that special place in your heart aches of life. Jack Garratt delivers to the world his latest "I Couldn't Want You Anyway" which reaches into the depths of despair of a broken heart. The composition is simple with a rustic piano that builds the foundation. His lyrics float light with his soft yet raw vocals that are written almost like a page from a letter to a between lovers gone wrong almost like a Hozier-like track. There's no doubt that by the end of listening to Jack Garratt's beautiful, soul-ridden voice you will find ourself in tears, lying in your bed, tears falling slowly down your cheeks onto your pillow. Jack Garratt will win your heart over as your favorite aritist from the UK with this track that pulls at something inside you and lets your heart pour out.

Q: passing vector to function c++ I have a main.cpp test.h and test.cpp> I am trying to pass my vector through so i can use it in test.cpp but i keep getting errors.
   //file: main.cpp
    int main(){
        vector <Item *> s;
         //loading my file and assign s[i]->name and s[i]-address
         tester(s);
    }

    //file: test.h
    #ifndef TEST_H
    #define TEST_H
    struct Item{
        string name;
        string address;
    };
    #endif

    //file: test.cpp
    int tester(Item *s[]){
        for (i=0; i<s.sizeof();i++){
            cout<< s[i]->name<<"  "<< s[i]->address<<endl;
        }
        return 0;
    }

    ---------------errors--------
    In file included from main.cpp:13:
    test.h:5: error: âstringâ does not name a type
    test.h:6: error: âstringâ does not name a type
    main.cpp: In function âint main()â:
    main.cpp:28: error: cannot convert âstd::vector<Item*, std::allocator<Item*> >â to âItem**â for argument â1â to âint tester(Item**)â

A: Pass it as std::vector<Item *> & (reference to vector) and use iterator to iterate through it.

A: *

*You should #include <string>.

*string name should read std::string name etc. Same goes for std::vector.

*You're calling tester() with a vector, yet it expects an array (the two are not interchangeable).

*s.sizeof() is incorrect for both an array and a vector; for the latter, use s.size() or, better yet, use an iterator.

These are just the errors that immediately jump out; there may be more.

A: A std::vector<T> and T* [] are not compatible types.
Change your tester() function signature as follows:
//file: test.cpp
int tester(const std::vector<Item>& s)   // take a const-reference to the std::vector
                                         // since you don't need to change the values
                                         // in this function
{
    for (size_t i = 0; i < s.size(); ++i){
        cout<< s[i]->name<<"  "<< s[i]->address<<endl;
    }
    return 0;
}

There are several ways you could pass this std::vector<T> and all have slightly different meanings:
// This would create a COPY of the vector
// that would be local to this function's scope
void tester(std::vector<Item*>);

// This would use a reference to the vector
// this reference could be modified in the
// tester function
// This does NOT involve a second copy of the vector
void tester(std::vector<Item*>&);

// This would use a const-reference to the vector
// this reference could NOT be modified in the
// tester function
// This does NOT involve a second copy of the vector
void tester(const std::vector<Item*>&);

// This would use a pointer to the vector
// This does NOT involve a second copy of the vector
// caveat:  use of raw pointers can be dangerous and
// should be avoided for non-trivial cases if possible
void tester(std::vector<Item*>*);

A: A vector is not an array.
int tester(vector<Item *> &s)

(pass as a reference to avoid copying or if you need to modify)
You also need to modify your code inside the tester function to work correctly as a vector.

A: You should fix
test.h:5: error: âstringâ does not name a type

first, probably by using namespace std; and #include <string>

A: You are missing includes
#include <string>
#include <vector>

and you need to use std::string and std::vector<>. A std::vector is not an array, so you should pass the vector as reference
int tester(std::vector<Item*> & vec) { //... }

or even as const std::vector<Item*> & if you are not going to modify the passed vector.
Also, are you sure, that you'll need a vector of pointers? What are you trying to achieve?

Vision Marine Technologies Receives Initial E-Motion™ Propulsion System Purchase Order from Groupe Beneteau
Continuous Purchase Orders to be updated monthly on a rolling quarterly basis
Montreal, Canada, December 15, 2022 – Vision Marine Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: VMAR) ("Vision Marine" or the "Company"), the global leader and innovator within the performance electric recreational boating industry, has received an initial purchase order from Groupe Beneteau (BEN- Euronext) ("Beneteau") of 25 E-Motion™ 180E outboard and powertrain systems. In addition, at the beginning of each month, Beneteau will provide Vision Marine a quarterly rolling forecast, which shall include additional quantities through a purchase order for the outboard and powertrain systems.
The commitment from Beneteau commenced by entering into a formal Supplier Agreement with Vision Marine, which was announced on December 13, 2022. With this initial purchase order, Beneteau will provide an eco-responsible alternative propulsion solution to its consumers.
Four Winns H2e - Revolutionary electric bowrider
Vision Marine and Beneteau will jointly market the groundbreaking Four Winns H2e to Beneteau's dealer network, which includes 72 dealers in the United States, and 400 worldwide, on five continents. The H2e is the first purpose built fully electric runabout available to the market. Four Winns will showcase the H2e and associated technology at the Paris Boat Show, December 3-10, 2022, ahead of the ultimate formal introduction of this innovative new model at the Miami International Boat Show, to be held February 16-20, 2023.
"This initial order sets an important commercial milestone and reflects not only the value, but also the trust Beneteau places in our innovative technology, as we expand fully electric propulsion systems globally across Beneteau's formidable portfolio of brands," stated Alex Mongeon, co-founder & CEO of Vision Marine.
This initial order clearly cements Beneteau's position as an innovative pioneer, with a clear focus on sustainable and decarbonized boating, as well as a greatly enhanced customer experience. The partnership in place with Vison Marine will enable Beneteau to offer eco-responsible alternative propulsion solutions adapted for its models by 2030, in order to fulfill Beneteau's recently announced mandate to do so.
The world's most powerful electric powertrain, the 180E electric outboard engine, powers the Four Winns H2e, offering peak power of 230HP and top speed of approximately 35 knots (40mph), as well as rapid acceleration and precise handling. There is presently nothing like it on a commercial scale available to OEMs or consumers.
The system consists of two custom high voltage, high density 700v battery packs, complete with a fully integrated and powerful onboard charger that can be plugged into any dock shore power system for quick recharging. With an advanced 70kw battery pack, the H2e has the power and autonomy to cruise all day.

A complete dual touch screen display allows the boater direct connectivity to entertainment controls, phone connection, and an advanced navigation system. H2e boaters will also have access to an automatic logbook providing trip history, battery status, security, and even weather forecasts.
The sleek lines, elegant look, and unparalleled performance and quietness of the groundbreaking Vision Marine electric propulsion system enhances the classic look of the iconic Four Winns bowrider, adding a modern touch to the boat.
