Jaco Pastorius

John Francis Anthony Pastorius III (December 1, 1951 – September 21, 1987), better known as Jaco Pastorius, was an American jazz bassist.  Despite his short career, he is considered by a select few to be the greatest bassist of all time.  He was born in Norristown, Pennsylvania.

Pastorius was a member of Weather Report from 1976 to 1981. He worked with Pat Metheny, Joni Mitchell, and recorded albums as a solo artist and band leader.  Pastorius was the first bassist in any genre to use harmonics in his bass playing, which can be heard in songs such as "Portrait of Tracy".

Pastorius developed a self-destructive habit of provoking bar fights and allowing himself to be beaten up.  On September 11, 1987, Pastorius was beaten to the point that he became comatose after a Carlos Santana concert in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.  He suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and a few days later led to brain death.  He was disconnected from life support and died on September 21, 1987 at the age of 35 at a hospital in Fort Lauderdale.

Kivitoo

Kivitoo was an Inuit community. It was also a whaling station. It was on the northeast shore of Baffin Island in Nunavut, Canada. The Inuit families that lived in Kivitoo moved to Qikiqtarjuaq in the 1950s. Qikiqtarjuaq is  south of Kivitoo.

History
In the 20th century, the Sabellum Trading Company created a whaling post at Kivitoo. This was to help the whalers that would stop there. The post was abandoned in 1926.

Kivitoo was a Distant Early Warning Line site. It's code was FOX-D. Right now, it is a North Warning System site. A short airstrip was built near Kivitoo around the time it became a Distant Early Warning Line site. The people that were living in Kivitoo were moved to Qikiqtarjuaq in the 1950s by the Canadian government. This was supposed to be for their safety because three people that lived in Kivitoo were killed when ice broke under their igloos. The people never came back to Kivitoo. The government had already demolished most of the buildings in Kivitoo.

A documentary that was made by Zacharias Kunuk talked about Kivitoo. It is called Kivitoo: What They Thought of Us.

Hyperloop

A Hyperloop is a proposed type of train that would travel at very high speeds.  The reason it can travel so fast is because it is inside a tube with no air.  This vacuum means that there will be no friction to slow the train.

The Hyperloop is being created and tested in various places around the world, for example the United States, the Middle East and Asia.

In 2012, Elon Musk (Tesla Motors, SpaceX) proposed this technology. In 2013, he put a plan online that showed the hyperloop train taking 35 minutes to go between San Francisco and Los Angeles in the United States. He shared this technology to the world.  In 2015, Musk's company built a  test tube.  He asked universities and companies to make the test trains.  They had two competitions in 2017 to see how fast the hyperloop trains could travel.  The fastest test was .

Possible advantages   

 The hyperloop will be faster than cars, buses and regular trains.  Elon Musk suggests that it may be possible to travel over .
 The hyperloop will be eco-friendly compared to a lot of current transportation.  Most plans for building the hyperloop use solar power to run the system.
 The hyperloop is a free and open-source technology.  Elon Musk put the plans online for anyone to use and asked people to improve the technology
 Because the hyperloop trains run inside of a tube, they will not be affected by weather such as snow or fog.

Possible disadvantages 

 Building costs will probably be very high.  It is predicted that the Los Angeles to San Fransisco hyperloop would cost between 6 and 7.5 billion USD to build.
 The trains will vibrate at a high speed which may cause passengers problems such as dizziness or stomach upset.
 Passengers will not be able to move while the hyperloop is traveling. As in a rapid transit system, there will be no access to toilets during trips.

Selection sort

In computer science, selection sort is a method for sorting data such as numbers into an ordered list. It is not an efficient method of sorting data compared to more advanced algorithms such as quicksort and heapsort. However, it is very simple to build and is usually taught to beginners in computer science.

Selection sort has a time complexity of O(n2).

Algorithm 

When given a list of unsorted data, the algorithm will divide the list into two parts: one part that has all the sorted data and another part that has all the remaining unsorted data. When the algorithm first starts, there is no data in the first part as no data has been sorted yet and all the unsorted data is in the second part. The algorithm then starts to find the smallest item in the unsorted data and swap it with the left-most element of the list. The part with the sorted data is then the left-most element and the part with the unsorted data is the remaining unsorted elements. The algorithm repeats itself, by finding the smallest element within the list of unsorted data and swapping it with the left-most element, eventually getting a sorted data.

Here is an example of selection sort working on six elements:

Implementation 
The implementation of this algorithm requires using two nested loops. The outer loop is to work on every element in the list starting from the left-most element whereas the inner loop is to find for the smallest element within the unsorted part of the list before the smallest element is swapped with the left-most element.

A possible way of writing this algorithm in Java is shown below.

public static void selectionSort(int[] array) {
    for (int start = 0; start < array.length - 1; start++) {
        int minimumId = start;

        // Find the index of the smallest number
        for (int i = start + 1; i < array.length; i++) {
            if (array[i] < array[minimumId]) {
                minimumId = i;
            }
        }

        // Swap the smallest number with the left-most element
        int temp = array[start];
        array[start] = array[minimumId];
        array[minimumId] = temp;
    }
}

Wired (magazine)

Wired (called WIRED) is a magazine written in English. It is issued to readers once a month. They also put up their editions on the Internet, on their own website. Their writers write about politics, the economy, and how new technology changes culture. The magazine belongs to a company called Condé Nast, and has it’s headquarters in San Francisco, California.

They have other kinds of their magazine like Wired UK, Wired Italia, etc. In their first “colophons”, they said that a Canadian named Marshall McLuhan was their “patron saint”. When it started, influence on the magazine’s editorials was strongest about “techno-utopian” stuff.

There is a paywall on the website, which is 20 US dollars a year. During the time Condé Nast owned the magazine, Wired News took care of the website.

History
The magazine was started by a journalist named Louis Rossetto and his friend Jane Metcalfe, along with Ian Charles Stewart, in 1993. In the early days, they were backed up by a software entrepreneur named Charlie Jackson and an academic named Nicholas Negroponte of the MIT Media Lab, who was a columnist for six years (through 1998) and wrote the book Being Digital. The founding designers were John Plunkett and Barbara Kuhr (Plunkett+Kuhr), starting with a 1991 verson and keeing up through the first five years of their magazine, 1993–98.

Wired, who said it was "the Rolling Stone of technology", showed off at the Macworld conference on January 2, 1993. It gained success at its launch and was loved by many for its vision, originality, innovation, and cultural impact. In its first four years, the magazine earned two National Magazine Awards for General Excellence and one for Design.

The founding executive editor of Wired, Kevin Kelly, was once an editor of the Whole Earth Catalog and the Whole Earth Review and took with him a few contributing writers from those publications. Six writers of the first Wired issue (1.1) had made stories for Whole Earth Review, with the most famous writer being Bruce Sterling (who was  highlighted on the first cover) and Stewart Brand. Other people who contribute to Whole Earth were also shown in the magazine, including William Gibson, who was shown on Wired's cover in its first year and his article "Disneyland with the Death Penalty" in issue 1.4 resulted in the publication being banned in Singapore.
