Yesterday, another one of Hector Aleem's hearings took place. Because Facebook is temporarily banned in Pakistan, Mehwish Aleem, Hector's daughter, e-mailed me and asked that I distribute this message to all members:
"The [prosecuting] Lawyer of Sunni Tehreek has still not arrived from Umrah, that's why his junior lawyer came for the hearing. Daddy was also there, we saw him but we were not able to talk to him because we were in burqas (for security purpose). The junior lawyer started with the sentence: "I can't tolerate to see this blasphemer standing in front of me; I really want to kill him with my own hands" Judge was there but he didn't say anything to stop him from using that kind of language.
"Our lawyer and Sunni Tehreek's junior lawyer debated (I don't know the legal word of debate in court language) for one hour and their lawyer was continuously saying that Hector Aleem should be punished or else we will do our own justice. Daddy and lawyer were saying that the real culprit has been caught and legally I should be free from this case but the lawyer of Sunni Tehreek was not trying to listen anything. He gathered many other lawyers from the lawyers bar and they were all in favor of Sunni Tehreek and they chanted slogans against daddy and Christianity. As the lawyer of Sunni Tehreek isn't here so judge gave another date of hearing i.e 27 May 2010.
"After that we went to the lawyer's chamber, there lots of media or maybe people from some news agencies were waiting for the lawyer. So he hid us in his chamber after 3 hours we left his chamber when everybody was gone. In fact YESTERDAY WAS A HORRIBLE DAY.
"Tell people to pray for us and write to our government and other officials to have mercy on us and free my father.
"This was the situation of yesterday. but one important thing Facebook is banned in Pakistan for unknown days due to the 20th May… as we can't visit Facebook for some days so you have to post this mail there and tell everybody that we can't visit for few days. And i will inform you about [the May 27 hearing] too."
To date our generous donors have raised approximately 115,000 Rupees (approx $1,350 USD). Below is a scan of the lawyer's receipt for 90,000 Rupees.
Last week, I sent the Aleems the remaining amount (sent by members through PayPal donations), and a receipt will be posted soon.
We are still $1,150 short, so any donation would be wonderful. We have had donations as small as $5. Anything helps!
- Please donate for Hector's legal fund (and to purchase clothes, hygienic supplies, etc for him and his family):
E-mail admin Mohammed Shouman if you want to mail a check instead.
- Sign the petition to release Hector Aleem from imprisonment and ensure his safety:
- Contact Pakistani officials:
- Contact human rights groups:
- Write to Hector and let him know he is not alone:
- Visit his family's blog, which was set up to raise awareness on his case:
- Invite all your friends to join this group and to sign the petition.
- Keep checking back on this group for updates.
- Keep everyone you know informed about Aleem's imprisonment.
On behalf of the Aleems, thanks to everyone for your prayers, your thoughts, and your continued support and attention. The amount of encouraging messages and donations has been overwhelming.

Round 1 - Broccoli 1, celiacsings 0
And then inspiration struck! What if I melted cheddar cheese on the broccoli, like a loaded baked potato without the potato part? So the next time I brought the broccoli AND shredded cheese to work. Lunchtime approached and I realized that the broccoli on potatoes is usually steamed or cooked in some way. Could I risk just sticking it all in the microwave without cooking the broccoli? Indecision battled with hunger and the certainty of the rest of my food won out.
Round 2 - Broccoli 2, celiacsings 0
But today is the day. The broccoli is still crisp; the cheese is still sans mold. Half our staff is off-site so if the disaster smells terribly, I have fewer apologies to make.
I looked up how to steam broccoli in the microwave. It's as straight-forward as one could probably get:
- Wash broccoli.
- Chop off stalks so you get cute little tree-like pieces.
- Place florets and 1-2 Tbsp. of water in microwave safe dish, ideally with lid. I have no lid here at work so I'm going to use our microwave safe plastic wrap.
- Microwave for 3-10 minutes depending on microwave.
- Broccoli is done when still slightly crisp, very aromatic, and bright green.
Alright, reading audience. Wish my office luck, that this doesn't have dire olfactory consequences!!
And SUCCESS! (for the most part...) The broccoli with light cheese is actually quite good. I should probably get some plastic wrap that is more microwavable, though. Thankfully, because I only had one small stalk I only needed to microwave the plastic wrap for a little less than 2 minutes. The wrap had only started to melt to the bowl. Sigh.
Round 3: Broccoli 2, celiacsings 1, plastic wrap -1
Broccoli with Cheddar Cheese Snack (serves 1)
- 2 stalks of broccoli
- 1-2 Tbsp water
- 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
- salt to taste
- Wash broccoli and chop florets of stalks.
- Place broccoli & water in microwave safe dish. Sprinkle with salt as desired. Cover with lid or microwavable plastic wrap.
- Microwave on high for 2-4 minutes, depending on microwave strength and amount of florets. Broccoli is done when still slightly crisp, very aromatic, and bright green.
- Uncover. Sprinkle with cheddar cheese.
- Microwave on 80% for 25 seconds or high for 15 seconds. Again it may be more or less depending on your microwave and how melted you want the cheese.
And there you go. It took a few rounds, but eventually there was veggie success!

Reading PDF documents on Kindle can be a drag, because the text is often too small. But a clever reader found this tip on Amazon:
If you prefer to have your personal PDF documents converted to the Kindle format so you can take advantage of Kindle functionality such as variable font size, annotation, Text-to-Speech, etc., type "Convert" in the subject of the e-mail when you submit your personal document to your "name"@free.kindle.com address.
This makes a big number of PDF files much more readable!
Unfortunately the file only appears on the Kindle device itself, you can't read it in the Kindle app on other devices, at least not the iPad.

I've been playing with recordmydesktop lately in order to put some suitable screencasts together for demonstrating various Linux-related activities to university students next week.
Unfortunately, both Fedora 11 and Ubuntu Jaunty have issues with RecordMyDesktop -- the current version (0.3.8.1) is much better than the last version I tried (0.3.5) in terms of both video and audio quality, but the more-than-occassional
Broken pipe: Overrun occurred.
Cause audio to be clipped rather badly.
The default settings make the video speed up and therefore finish well before the audio too -- so I set about trying to find the optimium settings to make the best encode I could.
First, if you are using a 3D Window Manager (such as Compiz), please use the --on-the-fly-encoding and --full-shots options, or everything from opening new windows to redrawing your background will end up with corruption.
If you do not know which Window Manager you are running, you can use the Visual Effects tab of the Appearence Preferences window.
If the button is in the first box (None) then you are not running a 3D Window Manager, if it is in either the Normal or Extra boxes, you are.
Now we've figured out if we need the options for 3D Window Management, it's time to move on to the audio -- in it's default configuration, the program will clip and/or drop audio because of the overrun mentioned above, but you can reduce that by a fair proportion by either:
- Using pasuspender to launch the program. This particular solution was suggested by an Ubuntu developer on a reported bug about RecordMyDesktop that looks very similar to the particular issue we're covering here.
- Configuring an .asoundrc file to use PulseAudio for all ALSA based audio by default.
The latter is done by creating a new blank file in your home directory and adding the following code:
pcm.!default {
type pulse
ctl.!default {
type pulse
Save the file, exit, log out of your session and login again.
This alone reduced the dropped audio from 7 occassions in one minute's worth of recorded footage to 3.
The former is done by adding: pasuspender -- to the beginning of the command line.
On my laptops, using pasuspender made no real difference to the problem, which is why we're preferring the .asoundrc solution for the remainder of this discussion.
Another thing that helps lower the frequency of audio dropouts is to increase the buffer size used by RecordMyDesktop -- the defaults are 4k, raising that to 16k helps dramatically, but any higher doesn't seem to offer that much of an improvement (I tried 32k (32769) and 64k (65538) when testing -- i'm only recording two channels on an internal microphone though, your milage may vary)
You can do this by adding the --buffer-size 16384 option to the command line.
update (2009-05-17): At the highest quality audio and video settings, 16384 can still cause dropouts, so 65538 is now preferred.
Next, if you're using onboard audio (like Altec Lansing laptop audio) you may see:
Playback frequency 22050Hz is not available...
Using 44100Hz instead.
Recording on device hw:0,0 is set to:
2 channels at 44100Hz
The Altec Lansing Audio, as well as several other Intel based sound cards that use the hda-intel-audio driver, will resample 44100Hz input to 48000Hz, hence the error.
To fix that, you pass --freq 48000, which allows recording of audio without any extra resampling.
Now, if you've used the pasuspender solution above, or your audio seems to be correctly synced, you can move on to the next section.
If, on the other hand -- you still see Buffer Overrun errors, or your audio is out of sync, or you use my .asoundrc solution above, you'll need to pass an additional audio-related option on the command line:
-device plughw:0,0
Using plughw, allows ALSA and PulseAudio's internals to handle all of the resampling work -- or endian-conversion work automatically, which reduces a painfully large ALSA configuration that will differ on every soundcard on the market, to a single configuration change for our purposes.
The 0,0 (aka. use the first detected virtual sound device) should be fine for almost everyone working on a standard configuration -- if you've got:
- More than one Soundcard.
- Have used the Systemwide PulseAudio On Ubuntu HOWTO to add a software equalizer to your configuration.
You may have more than one plughw device to choose from -- choosing which one is beyond the scope of this article though.
Now we can move onto improving the video quality.
Next, it helps to set the framerate -- i've seen numerous articles on the web about this, everyone suggesting everything from 10fps to 90fps to get a clear picture.
I tried 10, 12, 20, 25, 29, 50 and 60 (these seem to be the ones that are mentioned the most, in a four page Google search on the subject) -- 10 works if you want to keep the filesize low, but the playback video seems too jerky -- 60 doesn't increase the filesize, but does have an unwanted side-effect of the video finishing well before the audio when you play it back.
The optimum setting I found was --fps 20.
Finally, because I wanted to re-encode these for different purposes, I like to do the initial encoding with the highest quality possible.
However, the difference between -v_quality 1 and -v_quality 63 was minimal at best on my 1280x800 resolution.
Somewhat obviously though, the -v_bitrate option makes A LOT of difference, so I bumped that to the highest number available (2000000).
The recommended command line(s)
I've provided both a high and low quality setting for those people who are interested
The final command line, that works for me and provides the highest quality, lowest distortion with no dropouts -- was:
recordmydesktop --on-the-fly-encoding -v_quality 63 -v_bitrate 2000000 -s_quality 10 --full-shots --fps 20 --freq 48000 --buffer-size 65538 -device plughw:0,0
For a smaller filesize or for encoding on older or busier machines, with quality suitable for downloading or streaming, you can use:
recordmydesktop --quick-subsampling --on-the-fly-encoding -v_quality 10 -v_bitrate 50000 -s_quality 1 --full-shots --fps 10 --freq 48000 --buffer-size 16384 -device plughw:0,0
This option does the encoding after the video capture has stopped, which results in a smaller filesize at the expense of taking longer to encode your original footage, you can offset this somewhat by adding the --quick-subsampling option to your command line, which saves CPU time by discarding extra pixels when calculating the chroma values during the encoding process.
note: If you are using a 2D Window Manager (such as Metacity), you may omit the --full-shots option, which halves the filesize on my Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope install.
Why No Examples?
Google doesn't support Theora based videos to be uploaded to Blogger, I had two videos recorded of 10 seconds each, the low quality one (using the settings above) clocked in at 220 kilobytes, the high quality one was 1.3 megabytes.
When El Goog does decide to allow Theora based videos on Blogger, i'll post them -- but converting them to .mp4's just to show you all what they looked like, seemed rather purpose defeating :)

We did decide to have the Easter Bunny come to our house on Saturday instead of Sunday. This might not always work because of Chris's schedule, but it did this year.
The Easter bunny actually did a really great job hiding the eggs instead of just placing them in plain sight where a toddler could find them.
The baskets were found on the porch with the appropriate amount of things for little boys and baby girls. The Easter Bunny really felt like adding to much work to his busy week wasn't worth it.
And then I found these ears leftover from Miles first Easter and couldn't resist.

I think cheeks run in our family.
Happy Easter!

Marine Exchange
The lighting design criteria for this project was to design a pleasant inviting environment that did not feel institutional. Controls for lighting throughout utilized occupancy sensors and with or without dimming control, to meet occupants desired light levels.
The exterior lighting brings a nautical appearance using Red and Green LED wall sconces illuminating the entry. The Flag is illuminated from above with small LED accent flood lights. The interior stair tower provides a warm glow using LED wall sconces. A lamp temperature of 3000K was used to help bring out the warmth. The interior stairwell is illuminated with LED wall sconce using a warm 3000K lamp with a CRI of 90. The flexible decorative ceiling mounted track in the corridors provides ample lighting for the walkway as well as illuminating art work on display. The small track heads are low voltage LED, a frosted shade. A remote transformer provides power to the decorative track. In the conference room pendant mounted linear LED luminaires provide even illumination of the conference table. Dimming controls are provided to make the space flexible for multi-use. Undercabinet lighting using linear LED strip is provide at the coffee bar.
2017 New Cruise Ship Dock
In 2010 Haight & Associates participated in development of the concept scope and option development including research with AEL&P to determine system capacity, capability and requirement for shore power, working with cruise ship companies to gain an understanding of their potential shore power demand. HAI provided
In 2012 HAI provide professional design documents including utility service and distribution systems to the docks, raceways, trays, vaults. Also, future installation of shore power service to the vessels including the stationary docks, ramps, and floating docks. HAI designed power for capstans and pumps, maintenance power, power and communications for waste water instrumentation, capacity to provide winter moorage shore power to smaller vessels, lighting on the ramps and floating docks, and on the stationary docks, Surveillance cameras and power and communications for security gate facilities.
2013 to 2016 HAI provided electrical construction observation services including construction administration and field inspections. HAI had a great opportunity working with a great team of PND engineers and CBJ ports and Harbor.
Juneau Seawalk Gold Creek to Bridge Park Phase 2
This project is a continuation of the Seawalk along the Juneau waterfront. This phase of the project covers the lighting for Seawalk boardwalks and manmade island from Gold Creek to Bridge Park.
HAI provided a design for railing post mounted LED Step lighting and circuiting for Seawalk boardwalks and a top railing mounted linear LED lighting and circuiting on the island. The controls and service for this phase are covered in the next phase Bridge Park. Banner poles without lighting were installed at the entrances on either end of boardwalk.
Amalga Distillery
Unique and beautiful one and only distillery located heart of downtown Juneau, Haight & Associates felt honored to be part of an amazing design team and to work with remarkable owners. HAI provided professional drawings including power to all the equipment's in the basement that plays a big part in the beautiful still.
The new lighting for this space utilized all LED lamp source. Decorative track lighting was utilized as ambient light and highlighting for the space. This included both spot lighting to highlight bar counters and distillery equipment and decorative pendant s placed over tables. Floor mounted luminaires were placed in lounge seating area. LED downlights and suspended and cabinet mounted linear LED luminaires were used in entries and blending room.
Cruise Ship Dock Art
Ports and Harbor hired Haight & Associates to provide professional electrical engineering services for lighting of the Aquileans installed on the downtown Juneau Cruise Ship Dock. Project designed for ten sculptures with four lights per sculpture.
HAI reviewed existing electrical conditions of the project area, designed power to four luminaires at each Aquileans, provided specifications. During install HAI worked closely with electrical contractor, Artist and the owner closely to bring the dream that Ports and Harbor had to life. HAI completed the project with final inspection, end user training and user guide manual for daily use of the Owner.
HAI was honored to be a part of this team, bringing lights to downtown Juneau and had the pleasure of creating beautiful lighting shows for the Juneau community.
SOB Generators
In 2015 HAI provided an assessment to upgrading, replacing, renovating the standby emergency generators at the State Office Building. Assessment included evaluation of the present system and conditions, review of code requirements, determination of loads and options for siting and interconnection to the power distribution system.
In 2016 HAI provided professional signed drawings for decommissioning in place of the old generator (500KW unit), reconfiguring the existing generator (900KW), and configuring a new generator (800KW unit). HAI assisted the owner through bidding question, submittal approvals and provided conformed drawings.
In 2017 HAI provided electrical construction observation services including off hours extended administration, on site inspection during install, commissioning new generator, and bringing power back on to one breaker at a time. HAI's one and only goal with all the other goal was to keep the power ON to the Alaska's main data center that is located inside the State Office Building. HAI had done a beautiful job with the help and support of a great electrician team and the owner.
Statter Harbor Boat Launch
The need for additional parking and new launch ramps for Statter Harbor has been long awaited. For this project Haight & Associates was asked to design power and lighting for new launch ramp and parking area that would have minimal impact on the neighboring properties.
During the design phase, a 3D rendering was done for the parking area lighting. This was to show neighboring property owners that the lighting was low level and would have minimal light trespass on their properties. Provided were pole mounted area lights that covered the main parking area and pole mounted area lights to illuminate a walkway along the waters edge. Lighting and power were also provided for a shelter overlooking the launch ramps.
UAS Residence Hall (Student Housing)
With the construction of the new student residence at UAS, Haight & Associates designed intricate schematics to include Power Systems, Lighting Systems, Network/Communications, Television, Fire Detection/Alarms, Access Control and Security.
Power Systems included Utility Service, distribution and branch circuit systems, devices and equipment. Lighting Systems included exterior and interior systems. The exterior is supported with emergency power packs to maintain illumination for a minimum of 90 minutes in the event of a power outage. The interior was designed with surface mounted and recessed lighting fixtures with LED lighting. As this is a LEEDs project, low maintenance LED light engines are utilized for all luminaries in this facility. A 3500 degree K luminance is prominent throughout. Low voltage controls are used with scheduling and occupancy control to limit use during inactive hours.
Network/Communications for the new residence all was integrated with the campus network system using fiber-optic cable. The infrastructure incorporated runways in the electrical room and two terminal stations were installed. Additional network terminals are located in the study, lounge and seminar room to best accommodate the students/professors and guests.
Television service and distribution is routed from the nearest utility source. It is amplified as required for the number of connection points within the building. Each dormitory room is provided with a terminal.
Implementation of an automatic fire detection and alarm system is addressable with initiation and notification devised provided in compliance with the codes. It also incorporates features for the elevator and sprinkler systems.
Access control and security included surveillance cameras, sensors indicating door open conditions and alarms. The cameras are programmed to allow image collection and video streaming when motion is sensed at certain locations. The system allows for storage allowing historic review as needed from monitoring systems.
Mendenhall Valley Public Library
Mendenhall library was completed in 2015. With the construction of the new library, Haight & Associates designed power systems, lighting systems, network & communication and access control. This facility is characterized by a roof that "floats" on columns above windows that surround the perimeter. The lighting objective was to illuminate the spaces open to the upper ceiling utilizing indirect, reflective light and furniture mounted luminaires. No luminaires are mounted in or on the upper ceiling.
All of the lighting for this library utilizes luminaires with LED light engines. The light is produced with a 3500 degree K color and is controlled with a low voltage system using manually selected preset scenarios and dimming of luminaires in specific areas. The roof of library extends well beyond the perimeter of the exterior walls allowing some of the interior light that is directed at the ceiling to also illuminate the eve. This is a LEED project so the light is limited to illuminate no further than the eve.
The primary area of the library is illuminated with linear luminaires mounted to the window structures. These luminaires are directed to illuminate the ceiling, thus reflecting to the floor towards the center of the space. The stacks incorporate linear fixtures mounted at the top and directing light to the floor. These luminaires include emergency battery packs to facilitate egress lighting. Light bars mounted above the study surfaces which provide task illumination.
The children's library features diagonal cubes built into the wall. The interior of these cubes include recessed linear fixtures providing illumination for bear and Eeyore, as well as the children visiting the library.
The meeting rooms have ceilings constructed below the upper roof. Luminaires are mounted above the soffits, wall, and ceiling providing indirect and direct illumination of the space. This provides uniform illumination of the entire volume.
Seawalk Lighting AJ Cruise Ship Dock
In 2015, we began and completed a project to construct a new seawalk from one of the cruise ship docks toward the town center. It includes several features that incorporate different lighting characteristics. All of the luminaires utilize LED light engines with 3500 and 4000 degree K luminance.
The seawalk originates at the cruise ship dock, passing beneath a translucent canopy. Native totemic art is included with some of the canopy panels. This area is illuminated with small marker lights with narrow beams mounted into the canopy support structure. These provide lines of light across the walkway. The objective in this area is to direct the light downward in a relatively tight pattern. This allows the canopy panels with totemic art to silhouette against the evening sky without distractive artificial light.
A section of the seawalk between the covered portion and a gift shop is featured with garden planters and sitting benches. This is a wide area in the seawalk with small spurs leading landward to a bus parking area. Marker lights are encased into the concrete walls surrounding the planters and supporting the benches. This project lights the walkways in this area.
Three of the photos show straight round poles supporting decorative, period style luminaires. These are located on the water side of the walkway, illuminating the pathway from the canopy to the far end of the project. These luminaires are a cutoff type projecting most of their light directly to the walkway deck. The intent is to facilitate viewing from the seawalk out over the waterfront without objectionable artificial light. The poles include brackets for supporting decorative flags in the summer.
Juneau International Airport
Department of Fish & Game Building
Department of Fish & Game Building on Douglas Island is a two-story steel-framed structure with basement boiler room constructed in early 1960's. Haight & Associates, Inc. was subcontracted by Northwind Architects for new branch circuitry, Lighting controls, Fire Alarm System, Access Control and network Data & Communication. The Douglas Island Building major renovation work scope included Condition Assessment, Surveys, Design, Construction, Inspection, Equipment, and system testing and operations, maintenance and construction management. All of the lighting for the Department of Fish & Game building utilizes luminaries with LED light engines. The light is produced with a 3500 degree K color and is controlled with a low voltage system using manually selected preset scenarios and dimming of luminaries in specific areas.
Bartlett Regional Hospital
CT and Medical Surgery Wing Renovation
The first phase consisted of renovation of the existing file room for a smaller back-up CT scan. Work included removal of existing high-density compact mobile file storage system; selective demolition; installation of lead-lined walls, doors, and lead glass relites; new control and equipment rooms; new casework; new finishes as required; new electrical power and lighting, new medical gasses, new communications & data, cable TV, Nurse Call, Fire Alarm and Security Cameras.
The second phase consists of removing the existing Philips CT scan and related equipment and installation of new Siemens CT scan and related equipment.
Aurora Harbor
Aurora Harbor is a marina used for rented docking and shore tie power by commercial boat owners. Phase I of the Aurora Harbor Rebuild project consisted of replacing the southern third of the marina. Haight & Associates designed shore tie power distribution, LED lighting, and water pedestal heat trace.
Shore tie power distribution provided separately metered power pedestals at all boat rentals spaces. All power pedestals are powered from one of two separate power centers, which also provide branch circuits for LED lighting, heat trace, the sewer pump, and other associated electrical loads.
Robust LED luminaires were designed to emit precise lighting along the floats and gangways with minimal light pollution and glare. Photoelectric lighting controls secure power to the LED luminaires during daylight hours.
Heat trace was designed to prevent freezing at water pedestals and above ground water piping during cold weather. This provides fresh water throughout the renovated section of the harbor all year.
Haight and Associates completed the design of Aurora Harbor Phase I in March of 2014, and construction was completed in summer of 2015.
State of Alaska UPS
With the reconfiguration of the State UPS, we increased system reliability by eliminating single points of failure on the protected side of the system. We replaced a 300KVA UPS with a 450KVA UPS. The system operates in a typical parallel configuration, and will allow the UPS's to equally share the load. System controls were reconfigured to synchronize the UPS's to one another and to the utility. If one of the UPS fails, it will remove itself from the bus-bar, if the second UPS fails, the static switch will pass the load to the utility.
Salmon Creek Filter Plant
The Salmon Creek Filtration Plant provides filtered and treated water to the Salmon Creek reservoir. The new filtration plant was designed to filter, treat, and pump more water to the reservoir via a state of the art filtration system and new water pumps. Haight & Associates designed the power distribution, pump controls, programmable logic controller (PLC) retrofitting, telecommunications, LED lighting, heating, ventilation, filter device communications, and emergency power. Haight and Associates completed the design for the project in June of 2015 and construction was completed in the spring of 2016.
The power distribution consisted of a new power feeder to a new motor control center in the filtration plant and branch circuits to all new electrical loads. The electrical loads in the filtration plant were fed via cables from a fiberglass cable tray.
The existing obsolete programmable logic controllers were retrofitted with new I/O modules, CPUs, and touchscreen-style Human Machine Interfaces (HMI). Telecommunications between all PLCs, VFDs, HMIs, and miscellaneous computers was established via an Ethernet network
Industrial LED lighting was designed for the interior and exterior of the filtration plant. Photoelectric sensors control the exterior lighting, and manual switches control the interior lighting.
Thermostat controlled heating and ventilation control the temperature inside the filtration building. Electric unit heaters with fans and an intake fan with gravity vents keep the interior of the filtration plant at a suitable temperature while providing air exchange.
Emergency power is provided by a battery-equipped Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS). The filtration building office computer, all PLCs, and a few miscellaneous devices are powered from the UPS.
Sealaska Heritage Institute
Sealaska Heritage Institute is a three-story building with basement includes electrical support for HVAC and pellet boilers as well as distinct lighting, UPS, IT rooms, access control and life safety systems. With the construction of the new building, PDC, Inc. and Haight & Associates designed lighting, power systems, configuration of the lighting controls, network & communication infrastructure, fire alarm system, access control, and security system. AEL&P provides secondary service 208V 3 phase power underground from their vault to the switchboard in the basement Mechanical room. IT rack and AV controls are connected through an UPS providing 18 to 20 minutes of back up power for a safe shutdown.
The fiber optic (backbone) cable from the Sealaska Plaza network addressed with the communications systems facilitates the interconnection between the Sealaska network and the Sealaska Heritage Institute network. There is a cable tray system on each floor with an optimal integration with raceways to the terminals. The cable trays utilize a mono-rail, aluminum construction suspended from the structural ceiling.
Lighting throughout utilizes LED sources, with a combination of lay-in troffers, recessed can lights, and specialized track and display lighting utilizing directional heads and pendants. Exterior canopy and façade lighting uses well controlled LED optical systems for control of lighting within the tight property lines while maintaining appealing entries and highlighting the artwork around the entry. Interior theatrical lighting uses LED fixtures to greatly reduce the electrical and associated cooling loads within the Ceremonial hall.
Lighting controls involve motion sensing type devices, either occupancy or vacancy sensors in smaller rooms, theatrical lighting system and multi-zoned display. Some areas with more complex illumination elements will involve low voltage control stations and motion sensing devices. Rooms with good exposure to natural light will incorporate daylight sensing and dimming control. Security surveillance system is Ethernet based, utilizing the network system. The server will collect video streams and images as specifically programmed for each camera. The programming will allow for continuous streaming, scheduled periodic image collection, and image collection or streaming with motion sensing.
Clan House at Sealaska Heritage Institute has LED back lit glass panel. Lighting of the Glass Panel is designed and configured by HAI employee Ms. Nimmy Philips and the wood work behind the glass panel was constructed and designed with the Carpentry skills of HAI employee Mr. Robert Jensen.

Deputy President Ramaphosa to discuss economic growth with China
Loyiso Langeni
14 July 2015
Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa is today expected to hold bilateral political and economic discussions with Vice President of China, Li yuan Chao.
This is part of Ramaphosa's official visit to the People's Republic of China which started yesterday.
In a statement Rampahosa's office states that bilateral discussions will take place within the framework of the Five-to-Ten Year Strategic Programme, which was signed by President Jacob Zuma during his state visit to the People's Republic of China in December 2014.
Rampahosa Spokesperson Ronnie Mamoepa said the thrust of Deputy President Ramaphosa's visit to the People's Republic of China is on economic and trade matters with specific reference on how state-owned enterprises can be utilised to promote economic growth while addressing challenges of poverty and unemployment.
Mamoepa added that in this regard, Deputy President Ramaphosa is expected to visit several Chinese State-owned enterprises with a view of learning how South Africa could utilise the Chinese model in its own re-industrialisation process.

How to Set the Clock Ahead on Your Apple Watch
I often used to get late for appointments despite trying my level best to be in time. That's when I decided to set the clock ahead on my iPhone. Since then I have been able to catch up with time-more often than not.
Now that Apple Watch has joined the esteemed company of iDevices, it would be even easier to get along with the pace of time. Interestingly, there is no option to set the Apple Watch clock behind unlike other traditional watches. Simply put, you can only set the time forward on your Watch and not backward.
- When you set the time ahead on your Watch, it only changes the time displayed on the watch clock face.
- Alarms and notifications have no impact of this changed time.
- Even World Clock time is not affected when you adjust the time.
- You can set the time ahead by up to 59 minutes on your Watch.
How to Set the Time Ahead on Apple Watch
Step #1. Launch Settings app on your Apple Watch.
Step #2. Next up, tap on Time.
Step #3. Tap on 0+min.
Step #4. Now, you need to rotate Digital Crown to adjust the time as desired.
Step #5. Once you have adjusted the time, tap on Set to confirm.
That's it! You can repeat these steps to adjust the time on your Watch whenever you want.
There are so many ways you can customize your Watch. You can change or customize the watch faces, add Apple logo to watch clock face, add many versions of a watch face, personalize the watch band and more.
What do you think why Apple has not provided any option to set the clock backward on Apple Watch? Do you have any trick to set the time behind on the watch? If yes, do share with us.

That's how long I have been the Administrator and President of Valley Christian Home (a residential facility for the elderly) in Hemet, CA.
And in all those years (and probably many more before me) we have been using those triple-fold paper towels in all our public restrooms and kitchens.
So a couple weeks ago I got involved in some purchasing activity after some staffing reductions (attributable to Obama's promises of Hope and Change). Staff had informed me that we were out of towels and needed to reorder. So when our supplier's sales rep showed up, I informed him of our need.
"Do you want the white towels or the 'green' towels" he asked.
"What are you talking about," I asked, "I've never heard of 'green' towels."
Then he explained, "The 'green' towels are the ones we used to call 'natural.' You know! The brownish colored ones that are manufactured from recycled paper."
"No thanks," I said, "I used to like green when it was a color in my Crayola box. Now that it is a religion, I hate green."
The he opened his price book and showed me that white towels were $40.00 per case and "green" towels were $20.00.
"O.K." I said, "I just changed my religion. Give me the 'green' towels."

In other artsy news, I'm in the middle of designing a wallet and passport cover with Tinymeat for their Etsy shop, which I am really excited about because I love their artist series products. Plus, they've had over 8,000 Etsy sales in three years, which is insanity to me considering I've only had 18 (baby steps, I suppose!). Hopefully there will be more exciting news to come soon, but until then, please bear with my critter-induced silence!

NBA Rumors: Latest on Lakers Coaching Hunt, Rockets All-Star Pursuit and MoreJune 11, 2014
Free agency begins July 1, meaning teams have three weeks left to determine which stars they want to target in order to improve their squads and, in some cases, decide whether or not it would be in their best interest to hire a coach before or after the free-agent frenzy commences.
That's a lot of time for rumors. Let's discuss three of the latest below.
Lakers Lust Over LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony
The Los Angeles Lakers fall under both categories mentioned above. Pau Gasol is an unrestricted free agent, Steve Nash will return—but who knows how many games he will play—and Kobe Bryant is coming off two major injuries and won't be around forever.
Coming off a dismal season and Mike D'Antoni's resignation, the team needs to replenish its star power, and its coach. According to Sam Amick of USA Today, the two processes are related:
The slow pace of the Lakers' coaching search that began April 30 when Mike D'Antoni resigned has been timed deliberately with the upcoming free agency period in the NBA, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. Specifically, the idea that the Lakers could beat the odds and land the likes of the Heat's LeBron James, the New York Knicks' Carmelo Anthony or any of the other superstars who may be free agents on July 1 has led the Lakers to plod through their process so as to not limit their potential options. The person spoke to USA TODAY Sports on the condition of anonymity because of the private nature of the search.
The Lakers haven't had any trouble in the past luring stars to Los Angeles. The large market, the warm weather and the storied franchise are all appealing for potential free agents. But attracting LeBron James or Carmelo Anthony—who each have player options—will be difficult.
If James wins his third championship with the Miami Heat, there is little reason to believe he will leave. And why would he? His situation is ideal and the team would be fighting for its fourth championship in a row. But if the Spurs win the 2014 NBA Finals, perhaps he chooses to take his talents elsewhere.
Anthony's situation is a little more complex. Phil Jackson has the power and track record to keep him in a Knicks uniform. Plus, the NBA's largest market will be tough for Anthony to decline. However, don't count out Bryant's ability to persuade. Few players are more intense or persuasive than Bryant.
Either way, the Lakers want to hold off on their coaching search in order to give the stars a voice in deciding whom they'll potentially be playing for if either sign in LA.
New Big Three in Houston?
The latest and greatest path to compete for an NBA championship has been to assemble a Big Three. Miami has one, San Antonio (kind of) has one and Oklahoma City and Boston had one.
Now, the Houston Rockets want one, per Basketball Insider's Bill Ingram:
Rockets GM Daryl Morey is not only hoping, but planning to add another All-Star to his roster in order to help Dwight Howard and James Harden get out of the first round of the playoffs next season. Kevin Love is very much on Houston's radar, and if they could find a way to get him in town they would jump at it. Love is the perfect frontcourt complement to Howard because he stretches the defense out to the three-point line and he is an even better rebounder. With Howard and Love together the opposition would have little hope of getting an edge on the boards, and many games are won and lost on the glass. The rub, of course, is that Houston really doesn't have much to offer beyond the ending deals of Omer Asik and Jeremy Lin, and with both owed a $13.5 million balloon payment it's a hard sell. The Timberwolves don't need either player, so a third team would almost certainly have to be involved for Houston to get in the mix for Love.
Adding another star to Houston's lineup would be a scary thought for the other teams in the Western Conference. As Ingram points out, Love would be particularly effective next to Dwight Howard because of his rebounding prowess and ability to shoot from deep.
If Chandler Parsons is a team's fourth-best player, it's in great shape. However, Parsons—who could become a restricted free agent this summer—is a valuable commodity and might needed to be included as part of a sign-and-trade in order to sweeten any potential deal.
Cleveland's Coaching Carousel
The Cleveland Cavaliers have a lot of questions that need to be answered, and soon. Is Kyrie Irving deserving of a max contract? Who will the team draft with the first pick after busting on Anthony Bennett just a year ago? Finally, who will coach the Cavaliers?
Cleveland's list of potential coaching candidates is getting lengthy. According to Sam Amico of Fox Sports Ohio, the team has either interviewed or are interested in Chicago Bulls assistant Adrian Griffin, Los Angeles Clippers assistants Tyronn Lue and Alvin Gentry and former Memphis Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins.
Add two more to the list.
Per CBSSports.com's Zach Harper, the Cavaliers plan to give Mark Price an interview. Price, an assistant coach for the Charlotte Hornets, would make for an interesting hire. The former point guard and four-time All-Star spent nine years in Cleveland, averaging over 16 points and seven assists per game. He is certainly a fan favorite, which could add an extra layer of interest and intrigue the team desperately needs and definitely lacks.
In addition, the Cavs also have their eye on another former point guard, per ProBasketballDraft.com:
Mark Jackson, who recently returned to ESPN as an analyst after three successful seasons as coach of the Golden State Warriors, can still coach if he so desires.
With so many questions left to be answered, it will be interesting to see where, and when, Cleveland finds some resolutions.

As I grabbed a journal and began to write, I noticed some peculiar handwriting in the back of the journal. This journal in particular was a solid black color decorated with small round silver studs. The journal read:
John Albert Tewsley
B.P Mt Clemens, Michigan
St. Joseph Hospital
1st place of residence:
Hilagar Ave. Detroit, Mi.
end of page one
First Remembered experience
04-41 Decarter St, Krammer
Homes. Centerline, Michigan
2 yrs. old.
Found myself about 100 yards from my apt. I stood between
two dogs which were about my
height. I don't know rather
if I was terrified or not. I
was not crying. I faintly
remember being rescued by
two adults.
Can't recall anything at
this time, expect for taunting
Jerry Mackenzie, who was about
six months older. He had a leash
on him and he was tied to a
clothes line. I don't recall
what I did, but would rush away
until he reached the end
of his line.
end of page 2
Summertime 1945
Looked out of the front door
and saw hundreds of people,
mostly women walking around
the in field banging on wash
tubs and wash boards. Later
that evening, a party erupted
in the alley of our apt. The
reason being we had the only
street light overhead on our
street. People were acting odd,
lots of laughter, kissing, beer
drinking, drunkenness. Remember
this incident clearly because
someone slapped my hand after
I picked up a cigarette and
puffed on it.
End of World War II
end of page 3
September 1945
First day of school!
end of last entry
My grandfather, John Albert Tewsley, was a brave man -- a man whom me and many others loved. He died on October 6th of 2006. He had a bright personality that keeps our spirits alive even though he is gone. Finding this journal was a wonder. Knowing that there are records from his life in the 1940's helps me to remain optimistic about history. My grandfather was a part of history. As is everyone else. My grandfather is a man who is gone now. However, no tears are created when his name is brought up. Just smiles.

Kindergarten Teacher
The town was a specific quadrille. Leftists were right, and Rightists were left. Geese flew in tandem, except the loss-engendered ones. This is factual, like wind thru trees dynamically. The town fits a presentation theory, and we gather in collision. We have seen birth and death, and U2 working the crowd. Galway Kinnell is now a fact of Providence, Rhode Island, like a truck stopped in the Callahan Tunnel. District Court, time off from work, take time off from work.

|Sydney Escorts
The moment will arrive when lovers will likely face a dwindling sexual life. Copulation can become drab, foreplay turns grey then the substantial "roar" changes into a little "yawn". If you are brought in this particular instance, in that case it's the right time that you resurrect the glow straight to your romantic life.
With regards to sexy Sydney Escorts, a very good idea of revealing the entrances of exhilaration and also discovering newer levels of erotic happiness is by using sex play items between the sheets. In truth, all of these are no longer a big NO today. A rising number of grown-ups are welcoming the utilisation of these astonishing gear.
Regardless of whether you agree or not, fun toys don't merely grant significant rousing, but likewise deliver many benefits. Listed here are only some:
1. Upgraded Sexual Functioning
Making use of adult devices can certainly fuel the quintessential boring sex life. Sending them within your combat in bed can help you and your mate to see your common carnal longing. A lot of different sex merchandises to heighten your function during humping are currently obtainable which include vibrators and lube oils.
2. Escalated Self-Consciousness
Regarding sex, the majority of lovers can't determine things they yearn for until the other spouse clearly shows them. At the very least, the ultimate secret to know exactly how to satiate your lady's body is by experimenting. And what better way does exist than have a shot at various enjoyable items? Contrary to everyday opinion, the only reason for the vibe's existence is to not ever ditch one's companion but to allow somebody to uncover his or her horny drives in the presence or absence of a buddy in bed.
3. Speedier plus Some More Orgasms
All of those incurring struggles with orgasm can usually benefit from hot toys. Surprisingly, women are the ones having issue hitting orgasm, considering that many of the sex poses scarcely provide exceptional clitoral incitement. Thus, it can be okay to use for example, a remote-controlled mechanical device at foreplay. It reinforces stimulation to the phase of orgasm.
In the instance you are still not sold out, why won't you move along and take a shot at an item with Private Girls Sydney? Have a look at the gallery right away.

Does "having sex" mean partnered sex only? (Solo sex is real sex!) Heterosexual intercourse only? Orgasms? Are they asking whether we're having the same kind of sex we used to? What if we're enjoying new ways of having sex?
If we give a partner an orgasm and the partner gives us an orgasm, but there's no PIV (penis in vagina), did we have sex? I say yes. If we haven't had partner sex for a year but we give ourselves weekly orgasms with our favorite vibrator, are we sexually active? I say yes.
I don't think we know much about what kind of sex seniors are having, once we broaden the definition of what sex is. My definition: Sex is any activity, solo or partnered, that gives us sexual pleasure, arousal, orgasm -- and maybe, but not always, all three. Does that cover the kind of sex you're having? Help me finesse this definition.
Let's discuss this. How would you define sex at our age? And how has your definition of sex changed over the decades? If you're willing to share your definition, or you have a comment on this topic, I invite you to post to the comments section. Your turn!

Tigers suffered a derby day defeat despite Northampton spending 56 minutes with a man less following Dylan Hartley's dismissal for an ugly elbow to Matt Smith's face. Tigers and Saints scored three tries each but Stephen Myler was more effective with the boot slotting 8 points to Williams & Burns combined effort of 4 points.
But to lay the blame solely on the kickers would be wrong. Tigers defence was shocking in the second half, with a man advantage Saints created overlaps at will, and the home side dominated both possesion and territory. ESPN's "Match Stats" records Saints having 76% of territory in the second half (what that exactly means I couldn't tell you but its not likely to be good.).
The kicking strategy from hand was simply not good enough. With a man advantage you should be able to kick to land not hand, as the old saying goes. If the kick is not on then there must be space somewhere in the defensive line. Instead Williams' kicks were almost always fielded by Ken Pisi, George North or James Wilson; not a trio you want running back at you.
Both times we got the ball into their 22 we scored tries relatively easily. But we barely had the ball inside their half let alone their 22.
The first 20 minutes was Tigers best spell, dominating the scrum but giving away very soft line out penalties that only J.P. Doyle will know what for. From a terrific Salvi turnover Tigers spread the ball wide left with Goneva making inroads to the 5m line. Northampton did well to bring him down but cynically infringed to slow the ball down. On the advantage play Smith drove Hartley out with a text book ruck clearance, the Saints captain took exception to this and after the whistle slammed the point of his elbow up Smith's nose.
Doyle's initial reaction was, baffling, only a yellow card; claiming it was a forearm to the jaw. Sean Davey, the TMO, insisted that it be upgraded to a red. When Sean Davey is having to tell the referee to stop being anti-Tigers you know its going to be a bad day.
Dorian West stormed down to the touchline to harangue the fourth official, I await with bated breath the e-mail campaign from the Saints fans offended by his behaviour.
Saints sacrificed centre Stephenson rather than a forward but it made no difference as Tigers mercilessly drove the home side over for a penalty try. Unfortunately that was where the mercilessness ended. Some weak refereeing in the face of a home crowd gave Myler the chance to nibble into the lead and Doyle evened the numbers up for ten minutes after the softest high tackle call I have ever seen on Tom Croft.
Tigers lead 7-6 at the break and were surely confident of the win. But in the second half we were out psyched, out muscled, out thought and out fought. Northampton wanted this and the triffling matter of missing Hartley was not going to stop them.
Tigers lost Blaine Scully to injury at half time and with him went a lot of defensive solidness and our energy. He is not the perfect winger, I could not see him making the kind of break Benjamin did for the third try, but he energises those around him. It was down Benjamin's wing that Northampton scored all three of their tries.
The first was whilst Croft was still off; North took the ball at first receiver and cut out 4 Tigers defenders with a beautiful pass, Ma'afu fed Waller who dummied his way past Benjamin and over the line. For me Benjamin has to smash Waller and see if the prop can make the testing final pass.
Wilson missed the conversion and the game settled down for 15 minutes. Freddie Burns was on for Matt Smith, booed from the field by the Saints fans for his crime of being assaulted, and made a delightful shimmying break through the midfield to the 5m line. Tigers recycled quickly and Goneva burst through two ineffectual tackles to give Tigers the lead 12-11 on 60 minutes. Williams missed the testing wide conversion.
Saints struck back with a piece of clinical finishing. Myler spotted the blindside overlap; drew in Benjamin as the last man and manufactured a cheeky off load that I'd doubt you'd see in a text book. Foden raced away using the supporting North as a decoy to create confusion in Tait's mind before having the strength to hold off Ben Youngs.
At this point it looked like Saints were going to race away to a big winning margin. But Tigers dug in. And kept kicking. And kept kicking. It was baffling, frustrating and stupid. And it worked.
Mat Tait chased his own up and under. The lithe full back tackled Foden and in the ruck slipped the ball on our side. Crane fumbled, but backwards, I think, I'm sure, in clearing the ball wide but it mattered not. It went to Benjamin on half way. He went inside. He went outside. He scorched past Phil Dowson and curved into the 22 beating more men. He couldn't quite make it but Youngs was there quickly and whipped it away to Burns and through Ghiraldini onto Goneva. Burns nailed the conversion from the same spot Williams missed the first and Tigers had the 3 point lead with ten minutes to go.
Northampton huffed and the they puffed. Could we do it? We were holding, just barely but we were holding them. We couldn't get the ball and they were steaming forwards, their big beasts of Manoa, Lawes, Dickinson and Burrell were coming to the fore.
They got a penalty and kicked for the corner. If we could hold the maul we could win the match. But the Saints were confident. You could see it in them. Flowing from us folding in the semi, they fancied it. I fancied us but there was just a niggle. Just a random thread hanging loose.
We smashed back the maul. Yes. They came left. We held. They came left. We didn't. Burrell took three men to tackle him. We were sucked in. Again. And they scored through Elliott.
We didn't deserve to win, but that's not the point. We could have won with 3 minutes of better defending, or better kicking.
Tigers are now 11 points off second place with 12 games to go. The comeback has to start now.

Last weekend I stumbled upon Fashion Truck Canada, set up in the parking lot of Liberty Village. Food truck you say? No, no, the only food at this truck was the adorable candy bar set up front of it.
Following the recent food truck craze, fashion trucks have been popping up in cities across the U.S. such as L.A. and New York. The concept has been test driven in Canada, but barely. Yorkdale Shopping Centre used a fashion truck in 2012 to promote its new retailers in the downtown core. Saint John's New Brunswick had a fashion truck. But Toronto? Not so much.
Enter entrepreneurs Emily Dobbie and Ashley Barber. "I already have two physical retail stores and an online website," Emily explains, referring to her Vocado boutiques. "I see this as a great way to test new markets and bring our pieces to new markets."
The clothing and accessories are contemporary labels, the kind you can easily try on over a pair of leggings and a tank, in case Fashion Truck's one change room is booked. "We sell a lot of LA brands -- Olivaceous, De Philo, Everly, Six Crisp Days," says Emily. You can also find pieces from Alternative Apparel, Free People, Levi's, Henry and Belle, Chaser and Wildfox. Accessories? No problem. Fashion Truck carries loads - necklaces, scarves, hats, rings, headbands, sunglasses, wallets and clutches. Just don't expect to find shoes, unless they're Tkees.
So when you have two brick and mortar shops and an online boutique, why the truck? "Retail is changing and we wanted to lead the way with this new trend. I see this as a great way to test new markets and bring our pieces to new markets."
Unfortunately, Toronto's bylaws around trucks -- food, fashion or otherwise -- do not make this easy. Fashion Truck's partners have already addressed councillors at City Hall, lobbying for easier permit processes. The current (archaic) rules and the city's snail's pace to change hasn't deterred these women so far. "We're ready to fight for this and show Toronto that they need to adapt and adjust and bring this city to the next level from a unique retail perspective."

I just watched the video... thanks! That was quite helpful. I'm now kind of dreaming about doing 2 of these books a year - one for each side of the family - and giving them out at Christmas. Guess I'd have about 3.5 months to get ready this year!
By the way, I'm not familiar with Periscope... how did they other people know when you were doing it live?
- Lorine McGinnis Schulze said...
Hi Dana, Glad you had a chance to view it. I've put it on my Olive Tree Genealogy youTube channel too at https://www.youtube.com/user/OliveTreeGenealogy
For Periscope all you do is download the free app to your phone or tablet. Then you would follow the people whose scopes (videos) you want to see. You can then choose to be notified when they go live if you want an alert.
Anyone following me on Twitter will also see it announced in their Twitter feed as soon as I start to broadcast live.
I am on Periscope as Olive Tree Genealogy and @LorineMS if you want look for me :-)

Have you ever experienced something so horrendous words could not explain? Something that ingrained itself in your brain so deeply, you didn't know how you would ever get it out? In April J. Maley's book, I Will Not Be Silent, that is exactly what occurs.
April was a typical 9 year old little girl except for one problem, she had an abusive-alcoholic for a father. Because of this, she had to take care of her siblings and try to attend school at the same time. Among other things, she also had to do her best to keep the house nice and tidy and cook all the meals. Unfortunately, her parents still found fault in her. She would always become the target for abuse. At night she would pray 'Dear God, please let Dad not be so angry and drink all the time, and for mom, please let her not be so sad and just love me and protect me.'
Throughout time, she saw things that ingrained themselves in her head. Like the time she walked in on her mother holding the gun to her head. Or the time when her parents got in a fight and her father hog tied her mother with and electric heating pad cord. More importantly, she would witness her father threatening to kill her mother over and over again.
One couldn't imagine how things could possibly get worse, but they did. She and her younger siblings were in the car waiting for her mother to return, when she saw the blood coming from her uncle's chest, her mother slumped over in the corner of the bedroom, and her father shouting back and forth at the cops with a gun in his hand. That was the day that changed her life forever.
The actions that day left her being diagnosed with manic depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Her brother Colton became a drug dealer and was in and out of the jail system. Her sister Lilly has had brushes with the law and her sister Mia was diagnosed with a bipolar disorder.
Throughout all of this, April has been able to get her life back on track. She has experienced major ups and downs and had to go through a lot to get were she is now.
I had a hard time writing a review for this book. Even though I recommend every one to read it, it was a hard one to write about. The author wrote this book so well that I could actually picture everything that was going on. I really felt for the character in this book. But putting all that aside, it was a good book to read and should be read by many others.
This book was given to me for an honest review.

I've recently come accros a theory about Fujitora's scar on his face. It is interesting to think about where they came from. My personal beliefe is that he got them from a past tragic story. We all know all the big characters in OP have a story behind them.
To me, these scars look like burn marks. What if he got these by trying to save some one (maybe a loved person) from a fire and lost his sight doing it. This could also be the moment when he got his haki? If we think about it, a lot of characters achieve some sort of haki under great stress. Fujitora probably had the same experience and he traid his sight for ultimate observing haki.
What do you guys think?Read more >
- ==Is this panda form just a transition?==
I will be disapointed if Luffy defeats Mingo in this form. He is to big, he seems like he is not very agile or flexible, also he looks like a panda, did I mention this before? I think i did. Anyway, it is just a clumsy form that doesnt fit Luffy's personality or fighting stile. I just don't see Luffy as a big dude, he is skinny, strong and endurent as hell.
I hope this is just some kind of a transition form or maybe he has more animals in his rich repertoire of techniques. I was also hoping on the vulcanization theory but maybe that will be gear 5? That.Would.Be.Awesome.

Law is dead but his soul remains. The only proof for that are the last words on the last page of the latest manga. There's a voice saying: "Listen up Strah Hat-ya!" Law is the only one calling Luffy like that. This could be possible since we don't know the true powers of the Ope Ope No Mi yet. I assume it's him and in the next chapters he's going to help him defeat Doffy.

Here is what i think.
Law is dead, but his soul lives on beause of the ope ope fruit. The only proof I have for that is the last words on the last page. Some voice said: "listen up Straw Hat-ya". Law is the only one who called him like that. His counciusnes must still be present but not in his body. I think this is one of the great powers of Ope-Ope No Mi.
And now he is going to help Luffy defeat Doffy. Or sabo is going to help. Or i don't know i'm still cofused about what's going to hapen.

So, the first surprise was of course the epic 30s fight bethween Luffy and Fujitora. It seems that luffy is fast enaugh for Fujitora but not quite strong yet. Same goes for Zoro, but if they were to fight him together then they would tottaly win.
Next, the funny Bartolomeo moments :D so funny, loving this character so far. Robin got a lot stronger since the TS.
And now the part that, I believe, we've been allwaiting for, Pica's voice... I was very disapointed, i did not expect a voice of a baby smegal, I was hoping for more like the voice from that live tv show when the host was laughing his ass ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IcB1JUOdWPY )
But yeah, I thought it was one of tthe good animes.Read more >
