We’ve been looking at God Valley all wrong.

This contains spoilers

Ok to start off it is Canon within One piece that people can migrate to new places to live. Sanji from the North to the East. Ace from the South to the East. Nami from Okyot Kingdom to Cocoyashi Village both of which is in the east blue.

We know from the Vivre Cards which are not made by Oda so their not 100% accurate that Buggy is from the Grandline and Shanks is from the West blue.

Film Red and all its promotions have confirmed that Shanks was the Baby that Roger and Rayleigh were talking about in the oden Flashback. So we know Shanks was on the Oro Jackson since he was about one. We’re not 100% sure on Buggy. Theirs possiblity that Shanks is a celestial dragon because the five geriatrics confirmed he was from the Fearland family. Due to the attack on God Valley someone placed Shanks in a treasure box for safety. Like Corazone did for Law. Meta wise this symbolizes their that particular persons treasure.

Was is by his celestial dragon family? Was it by Xebec himself because Shanks is his son and therefore his treasure? Or was it because Shanks mother who was a slave to a Celestial Dragon that would be Shanks father put her only treasure in a chest so Xebec could save him?

Every Time God Valley has been mentioned their always been a point where they make sure to talk about how the Marines were sent to protect the Celestial Dragons and their slaves. Why would the Celestial Dragons care if their Slaves were safe to we see them basically torture them to death just for fun.

So what made these particular set of Slaves so special and why did Xebec invade? Like I mentioned before possibly a rescue mission for his Possibly Sister or Daughter and Nephew Grandchild. To why they maybe more important than other is because they were carrying or nursing the children of the CDs who were born out of wetlock.

All we know about God valley is it’s not on the map anymore and it was piece of land important to the CDs. What if god valley was a hub for traveling CDs who had children by impregnating their slave or being pregnant by their slaves and god valley is some sort of purgatory for these children born outside the holey land and of on CD parent. Maybe it was we’re they raised and marry off these children with eachother so they the future generations can be considered gods again or they were baptized to become true Gods like their parents.

The story of One Piece has a lot of factions and Characters place an emphasis on bloodlines.

We know from St. Charlos that the CD can forcibly marry non celestial dragons but we don’t know if they can have children with them. I would imagine they could just so the bloodline isn’t to inbreded. (Which would explain their appearances.)

We know so little about Xebec that only he was Strong and he was Brute and commanded and inspired a lot of fear. What if Xebec originally came from a Lawless island from the West Blue and he either had a sister or a daughter that was taking as a Slave. Xebec wanted to be a king of the world it’s why he gathered such a strong crew. Attacking a small group of Celestial Dragons is not gonna do it.

In the Kaido flashbacks the Godvally raid seemed urgent and all hands on deck. What if Xebec put his plans on hold to save his stolen family with his crew of monsters.

Where could God Valley be even some where on the Grandline? Not the four blues. We we’ve heard about it or it would have been to well known. It’s possible that God Valley was in the Calm belt. With out the proper ship it would be impossible to get to. Plus the clam belt touches both the four blues and the Grandline.

And what Happened to God Valley after a Ricks defeat? They either Bustered Called it to pieces or they just took its location off the map or Maybe they found a way to enslave an Island whale and god valley is now in their.

We’ve always assumed that Shanks was the son of Xebec but I’ve never seen anyone think that Shanks was Xebecs nephew or grand child.

Also a funny little thing that someone pointed out to me.

Gold Roger = Gol D. Roger

Fearland = Fearlan D.

I think this is less likely but it would be funny if one of the celestial dragon’s families are hidden Ds.

WOW there was rly no other mention of figarland in film red and op wikis article hasn’t updated w 1086 so i had to go back and brush over to see where it was

after skimming the back half okay i have. new perspective ONE is that garland isn’t stated to be a world noble which i assumed the first time. he’s head of the knights and given a position of power in the holy land, obviously, if he can judge world nobles so freely (like.. enough to sentence one to death) and he does look like he’s in a position of power and knows it, like he gives off that air. but it’s not a stuck-up born-with-it air like other celestials

and then i realized that hes the former king of god valley, like in a very recent less-than-100-yrs-ago type. and uta was speculated to be a figarland after her relations w shanks were revealed.

at first i thought it would make sense, then, how shanks has gotten away with so much. (back when i thought garland was a celestial) that it explains why he was able to stop the war, and why sengoku said ‘because it’s you, i’ll allow it’ bc he didn’t rly have a choice in allowing it. that him seeing the elder planets was kinda like how mingo leveraged and weaponized his knowledge of the holy land. because it’s you, they said. and it would make sense, because shanks could have been born a celestial dragon but if he was found at god valley as a baby, or was placed on the oro jackson or w/e a la uta and the red-haireds, then he would grow up a pirate despite his heritage, but obviously if he would out then no one could deny him such. they sit at the top of the world for a reason

and then i backed off bc i realized it didn’t outright say garland was a world noble anywhere. so now my connection of shanks is coming from the god valley collection, and more in particular, the final words he says. on surface level he’s referring to mjosgard, but this is oda and nothing is ever only surface level. so if we are juxtaposing with shanks, then garland’s words surely are meant to be a foreshadowing. either into his character or shanks’. it really got me thinking on who shanks talked with the elder planets abt. luffy, or teach? but then, also, maybe roger? maybe rocks?? like, was he talking about a future problem, or something from the past coming to light instead????

anyone that protects scum is worse than scum themselves. my first thought immediately went to luffy. if we’re meant to tie garland in w shanks, and taking his words as some sort of future foreshadowing, and going off the assumption that shanks is going to be different bc god valley wasn’t around when he was growing up, then it’s gotta be him doing just that. like it’s gotta be more than snide words to mjosgard. maybe it’s abt shanks’ whole character, since 1076 (which i went back n glanced at to see if figarland was mentioned - nope) revealed that the crews under shanks’ fleet are kinda wishy-washy, and they joke abt protection money. shanks having so many common ppl -pirates no less- under him that can’t fend for themselves would be a good indicator in regards to what garland said. like i can see him saying that abt shanks. but, again, i can also see him saying that abt luffy. (i can also see it inadvertently coming back around to affect sanji, if the two ever interact, as yet another form of sanji rejecting his royal blood. but i digress-)

something abt god valley is going to be startlingly impt very quickly. its almost definitely been hit w an island-wiping beam like lulusia was, to have vanished like that in that manner of speaking (how sengoku warded others from investigating on their own and jus listening to him) and how the elder planets referred to lulusia in the original chapter it was blown to bits (a very different perspective this time around!!!! intriguing and eye-opening, rly wanna know where the nerona family lived before moving to the holy land. it couldn’t have been mother flame that did in god valley tho, or at least not whatever version they used on lulusia, since they talked abt it like they were testing a prototype. maybe they did have an ancient weapon at one point, and this is vp’s man-made counter to it like the blueprints franky had were the countermeasure to pluton?? vp took research on the void century from ohara over 20 yrs ago, and god valley vanished over 40, so if he (and therefore a rogue stella) found out a way to counter an ancient weapon, it would have to be after both. meaning the method of eliminating god valley and lulusia is similar but not the exact same, like an imitation

i wonder if god valley wraps all the way around, actually, bc roger and garp teamed up to protect celestial dragons. figarland is a judge onto the celestials in present day. the elder planets are partial to shanks, and garp views all celestials as scumbags (a la his convo w stelly) and dragon’s goal was to declare war specifically on the celestials. ik luffy’s mother has got to be impt, but i am starting to buy into his mother or grandmother being a world noble less and less, the more these egghead chapters reveal. garp and dragon just aren’t framed as having any partiality among celestial dragons. you would think if dragon met someone, that even if something terrible happened and they were judged by god’s knights, that dragon would take to heart that not all world nobles are bad (like we’ve been seeing w/ various donquixotes since the timeskip) and reconsider what he wants. but he doesn’t, so it doesn’t make sense for that to have happened. garp is the same way, and has been portrayed as such by his refusal to take an admiral slot since he made his debut in the manga. 

but god valley fits into the puzzle somewhere, and shanks is the missing piece to something. like somehow, someone got a baby shanks aboard the oro jackson. was it garp, after the fighting w rocks was over and his guard duty was essentially done?? was it someone else at the time, either a celestial (mother???) or a former resident of god valley? i guess we technically don’t know when garland retired to the holy land, so god valley could have not been a kingdom for many many years prior to the roger+garp vs rocks crew showdown. but both of them being there and teaming up makes me think it has to do with shanks, or shanks was a result and/or consequence of such. and the garp connection makes me think there’s a dragon connection, too. there’s 16 yrs between shanks and dragon. if dragon happened to be a former marine, would he have been there? did he have something to do with shanks being looked after by roger’s crew?

and then i am. tepidly circling around the idea that shanks could be tied to luffy’s mother, somehow. if oda is setting up shanks and garland to be opposites or foils or something, and if garland’s final words are a reference to shanks and luffy in the future, then? ??????????? idk. i think comparing shanks and luffy wouldn’t be far off either, especially if there’s a hidden middle man tying them closer together. like they don’t have to be related, that’s not necessarily what i’m getting at. but it would be very interesting if luffy’s mother had something to do with nobility tied so closely to the world nobles.

MADAME : "Aranciata", dal 9 giugno il singolo inedito fuori ovunque

MADAME : "Aranciata", dal 9 giugno il singolo inedito fuori ovunque. Madame torna a raccontarci una storia d’amore, questa volta quella di una relazione che vive una rottura, una distanza. “Parla chiaro e dimmi perché te ne vai da me / il tuo fiume senza margine non è più il mio rifugio”. Tra la perdita e il desiderio, “Aranciata” ci porta nell’estate della nostalgia “Io ti tenevo da un dito correndo nel prato / giocavamo a pallone bevendo aranciata / suonavamo canzoni alle feste di Clara / e mi volevi davvero bene?”. Questa sensazione dolce e amara viene resa visibile dalla metafora del mare: “Mi hai aperto le porte del mare, ma mi hai lasciata sola navigare”. Un’immagine di forte impatto e molto profonda, che esprime un dualismo emotivo: da una parte la serenità del mare e la voglia di esplorarlo, dall’altra la solitudine, l’assenza prodotta dall’abbandono della persona amata. La cantautrice torna a parlare d’amore in tutte le sue sfaccettature, dopo l’uscita del suo secondo album “L’amore” (Sugar) che ha debuttato al numero uno della classifica dei dischi più venduti e che include il singolo multiplatino presentato al Festival di Sanremo “Il bene nel male”.

Sociology Talk with Lia

Today I'm going to talk about how 3 sociological concepts which I see work in my life :)

Sociological Imagination: During the first and second modules in this course, we were focusing on a sociological concept called Sociological Imagination. According to the book, Durkheim also believed that social integration, or the strong bonds that people have with their social groups, are a key aspect of social life (Griffiths, Keirns, 2015) As a result of this concept, I was able to think about how society and culture play a role in my daily life in a more in-depth way. As a result of this concept, I have developed a new perspective on society as a whole. The influences of religion, family, and friends have a great deal of impact on my mind. My social circle has a way of persuading me to take sides on issues that are relevant to me, depending on whom I am surrounded by. As soon as I recognize that there is a specific situation in my life holding me back from achieving a bigger goal, I must reset all my preconceived notions about that situation and see it for what it is. If an elderly individual says something to me that I find unkind, I must put my anger aside in order to see their perspective in order to be able to solve the problem.

Social Change: According to the book, Sociologists define social change as changes in human interactions and relationships that transform social institutions. This can be a minor or drastic change in an individual's life. Life is constantly changing which has an impact on our lives. For example, I live with Type one diabetes which causes every day to look differently regarding my health. My life is constantly changing which I need to adapt towards. I must look at the social facts rather than looking or focusing on my biased opinions. Another example can be the Covid 19 social change where the whole world was in lockdown. This caused me to decide to attend my junior year fully online while others attended in person. This was a huge social change for everyone. Society changed as a whole when stores would be closed which caused everyone to be inside 24/7. Social changes can be personal and small or broad and as a whole society but it’s still classified as a social change. 

Social Mobility leads to a change in their social status relative to one’s current social location in society. This is a movement of people or a population of society. For example, In my life, I had to change elementary schools because of a move. Although I was still living in Oro Valley, this is still a social mobility change. I had to move from the friends which whom I would have play dates and grew up. I had to make and meet new friends which was a challenge for younger me. I was the quieter child so this move was a change for me. This was a both downside and an upside because it changed me mentally. Socially, I became quieter due to the uncomfortableness but in time I became myself. The culture and community allowed me to feel that comfort in a place of change and uncertainty. 

These concepts have helped me realize society as a whole and how different each individual is. We are all in the same society rather we come from different places, races, or ethnicities. It is important to use these concepts and live life to the fullest by showing love and kindest to all. I believe we must take time to meet people and learn how to effectively communicate with each other. Society is constantly changing but you can see patterns if you research and observe societies.

"Move Mabini; A Story of Progress"

The municipality of Mabini was created on May 28, 1953 by the virtue of Executive Order No. 596 of President Elpidio Quirino. Mabini is formerly known as Cuambog that is named after a tree species of the family Dilleniaceae then renamed as Doña Alicia after former President's wife Alicia Syquia was killed. It was later renamed in honor of the revolutionary leader Apolinario Mabini in 1954. Mabini is a coastal municipality in the province of Davao de Oro. Mabini is subdivided into 11 barangays which are the Cadunan, Pindasan, Cuambog, Tagnanan, Anitapan, Cabuyuan, Del Pilar, Libodon, Golden Valley, Pangibiran and San Antonio.

Mabini is a 2nd-class municipality in the province of Davao de Oro. In the last years, by the lead of the former mayor Reynaldo Dayanghirang we have seen the continuous progress and development of Mabini. From the infrastructure projects like the four infrastructure project for the two Sitioa Manasa and Mascareg consisting of a fully furnished Brgy. Health Center, Installation of Riprap, Steel Bridge and Sitil Electricification. An additional two infrastructure project for Brgy. Anitapan the solar street lights and multi-purpose building and road projects. However, last May 9, 2022 Mayor Dayanghiranf lost the position to Mayor Emerson Luego. Mayor Emerson Luego won the People's heart by his campaign and tagline "Move Mabini". Mayor Emerson or most known as Mayor "MM" started the fulfill his campaigns and made his move to develop and make a much better municipality.

Since Mayor Emerson Luego was elected as mayor of the Municipality of Mabini, there have been improvements in the municipality. Mayor Emerson has implemented numerous projects to improve the quality of life of the people living in Mabini. Mayor Emerson had built few establishments to improve the municipality's economy like building a tourist spot, the "Mabini Mountain Ridge" or the "Bikers Camp" the Food Hub and Snack Hub that made people from other municipalities go to Mabini. There also have been a series of graveling work and road repairs, road concreting and revetment/flood control project to the remote areas and barangays who needs it making it easier for the people living there. Many programs were made to preserve the Municipality's environment. At September 21, 2022 the Local Government of Mabini led by Mayor Emerson and DENR Davao de Oro spearheaded the clean up drive at densely populated Brgy. Cuambog and joined the International Coastal Clean up in Mabini Protected Landscape and Seascape. During " Bisita Kadagatan" on July 23, 2022, Mayor Emerson vowed to actively support programs, projects and policies that would lead to the betterment of the protected areas in Mabini. The municipality also participated in some tree planting activities. In terms of agriculture, the Municipal Agriculture Office conducted basic practices and services which Tilapia/ Livestock Seminar, Vegetable Distribution, and BCIC Farmer Insurance. There has been a great progress on people's well-being and welfare as Mayor Emerson creates programs that would be a great help for citizens like "Oplan Ligtas sa Pamayanan" a program by Bureau of Fire Protection, Pre-marriage Orientation, Counseling Seminar, Medical Mission Activities, Housing Programs and many more.

We really can see the increasing progress of Mabini from the newly built municipal office and plaza to the improved infrastructures, better access to education, better access to health services, and clean water. Due to the programs, campaigns, projects, and efforts of the people involved it successfully improved the people's lives and have increased the development and progress of the municipality.

Unveiling the secrets of an authentic Bianco Lasa Marble

Have you ever wondered why the Italian variety of white marble is considered as some of the world’s finest creations? Is it just like any other white marble only originating in Italy or is there more to the story? Let’s find out!

From its use in sculptures to adorning homes or to give an office area an extraordinary feel; white marble is known to transform any space into an embodiment of luxury. Bianco Lasa, an Italian white marble is unquestionably one of the most widely used and sought after natural stones in the world for centuries. But the question is, why?

Named after its place of origin the beauty of Bianco Lasa marble never gets old. Original Bianco Lasa marble is extracted only in one quarry, located in the village of Laas, in the North of Italy – Laaser Tal Valley. This small village is renowned for giving the world, the purest and strongest range of white marble.

Bianco Lasa marble is said to have formed over 400 million years. Over the course of hundreds of millions of years, organisms at the bottom of the ocean were compressed by gravity into beds of calcium crystals. As water bodies evaporated, the deposited remains formed into limestone. Intense pressure and heat from the earth forced the stone to metamorphose into marble. Over time the movement of tectonic plates around southern Europe caused the ancient seas to rise in the formation of the Alps, forcing marble into the mountains. What we now see is the Lasa marble 1567 meters above sea level. The white patches that you see on the mountains even from afar are in fact marble and not snow.

Even today, the demand for this white marble is staggering, which is probably why poor substitutes of white marble are sold under the name of Bianco Lasa in the market across the country. We at The Quarry bring to you the LAAS AUTHENTICO collection. Being one of the best Italian marble companies in India, we bring home the finest slabs of the whitest Bianco Lasa marble.

The Quarry Curators travel all the way to the Italian mountain tops and select pristine blocks with subtle grey and luxurious gold veins. They are bathed in pristine Alpine waters and cut by generations of Italian craftsmen to 20mm world standard thickness on world-class machines. The Quarry Gallery in Mumbai offers a stunning range of white natural stone, magnificently displayed in the 12,500 sq. ft. temperature-controlled environment.

The white marble from the village of Lasa is exceptionally resistant to extreme weather conditions. It makes Bianco Lasa a great example of adherence to both aesthetic and functional criteria. The Quarry Curated range includes Laas Bianco Authentico, Laas Oro Authentico, Laas Eterno Authentico, Laas Superio Authentico, Laas Blu-Gretto Authentico and Laas Gretto Authentico. Each Laas Authentico marble slab displays a varying range of unique veining, across the snow-like white base of the stone.

Laas Authentico collection of marble is known for its exceptionally pure, stark-white colour. In contrast to other marbles, Bianco Lasa is resistant to frost and other adverse weather conditions. It is very versatile and is beautiful, practical and highly functional. It is highly recommended for applications like flooring and wall cladding in living rooms, kitchens, bedrooms and even bathrooms.

Before you select a marble for your home, do choose to visit The Quarry Gallery. Our curators would love to take you on a personalised tour and even urge you to walk bare feet on a slab of LAAS AUTHENTICO. They would love to tell you more about our epic journeys and introduce you to our breath-taking marble, granite and onyx collections curated from 31 countries.

We also offer you innovative technologies like the BactoFinish and QVAC that strengthens the marble. The Quarry Site and Installation Audit or QSIA is a process through which we study your space and your ideas. Conduct a thorough check to find UV impact, air quality and water density. So you make an informed choice and our luxury marble, granite and rare onyx looks as magnificent when installed as it does when displayed.

Book your appointment with our curators and you would certainly find some amazing inspiration as we give you a one-of-a-kind experience. Call [phone] to buy best Italian marble, granite and onyx near you, right here in Mumbai, India.
