![]() ![]() Most of the healing methods that he uses are from the things he learned during his apprenticeship under both Dr. He is also capable of administering surgery and resuscitation. Medical Expertise: Being the doctor of the crew, Chopper possesses a vast knowledge of both medicine and medical drugs as well as the preparations of most remedies and ointments ranging from regular fruits, roots, and vegetables that can be found and used on most islands. Though it is rare for doctors to fulfill roles other than medical practices for the benefit of those around them, but as the Straw Hats' doctor, Chopper's responsibilities are not limited to just medicine alone. He also seems to have outgrown the habits mentioned above. He even has grown mature enough to smack his crewmates, mostly Zoro and Luffy, when they try to do something stupid or extreme. He no longer strives to be looked at as a human, now only wanting to "be a monster that can help Luffy" as he put it. He, together with Brook and Luffy, ends up being saved by the other members of the crew.Īfter the timeskip, Chopper seems to have grown more confident, much like Usopp. Another one is when he (and Brook) jumps into the water without hesitating to save Luffy from drowning, only to drown with him (since the Devil Fruit which he had eaten makes it impossible for him to swim). It is not until he figures out that is the doctor that he starts to tend to the injured person. One example is when there is someone who is injured, he often panics and screams "Call a doctor!!". He also tends to panic quickly, and subsequently let some crucial facts slip his mind. ![]() Unfortunately he is not hiding his body behind the wall, as a result his body is visible and only one half of his face is hidden. He was also enraged at Caesar Clown, for kidnapping and experimenting on children, and making them addicted to drugs.Īnother one of Chopper's habits is his reverse cartoon peek, where he stands behind a wall or a doorway and peeks at people, trying not to be seen by them. Hogback, when the man treated the patients' and Zombies' lives, and deaths, so callously. This was why he was greatly furious at his former hero, Dr. To this end, his childish nature vanishes whenever his medical skills are required he does not hesitate in the least in any actions regarding the well-being of his patients.Ĭhopper also has the strong belief that a doctor is supposed to help save people, and becomes angered when somebody treats life without the proper respect. His dream is to carry out his deceased adoptive father, Hiluluk's belief that there is no incurable disease, and to become a doctor that can cure any illness. He still has a feeling of distrust for humans from his youth, and will often outright insults and claims that compliments do not make him happy even though he is obviously happy about it (he starts to do the "Dirty Old Man" dance which was a bit by famous Japanese comedian Ken Shimura, which became a running gag).Ĭhopper seems to be very forgiving of those close to him, for when Usopp wanted to rejoin the crew at the end of the Enies Lobby Arc, he called out to Luffy and Zoro, although they were ignoring him completely. ![]() He is an upright friend and companion who will try anything to overcome a task given by his team. Because Chopper is more or less on a journey to define himself, he often sees the members of the crew as role models, which causes him to imitate their behavior sometimes, especially Usopp. Also, similar to Luffy, he is always easily impressed at things like beams, cannons and hidden abilities. Similar to Usopp and Nami, he is sometimes a coward, but his cowardice can be attributed to his childishness and low confidence in his own fighting abilities, which contrasts with both Nami's cowardice based on her self-survival and with Usopp's cowardice based on his insecurities. Besides being naïve, he is also extremely shy towards strange humans, especially before meeting the crew. Chopper often acts very childish because he is innocent and does not know any better. ![]()

![]() ![]() Spencer, Lenika, was that enough to win your fealty? But time and time again in recent years, Benioff and Weiss have opted for grand cinematic gestures over granular world building, and Drogon burning the Throne to sludge was their last big mic drop. Pause and think about the logic of it all for a second, and it’ll collapse under scrutiny. As usual, the actors did their best with what was on the page Emilia Clarke and Peter Dinklage, long the two standouts of the show’s ensemble, wrestled mighty performances from unwieldy monologues, with Clarke trying to justify Daenerys’s belief in the burning of the city, and Tyrion finally investing his support in Bran, a living archive of Westeros’s history. This season has been the same story over and over again: a lot of tin-eared writing trying to justify some of the most drastic story developments imaginable, as quickly as possible. So much of Bran’s rule will probably be plagued with its own issues, but that would be a story for another series, not the Song of Ice and Fire (a title that was helpfully embossed on a large volume for Tyrion to read).Īs a fan of the TV show, I felt battered into submission. ![]() Sick of the wars of succession that consumed the nation for years, the lords of Westeros will now pick rulers by committee, a system that sounds lovely in theory and that is incredibly fraught in reality. Weiss, but in the end, her dream was achieved, and the wheel was ostensibly broken, partly by the bloodshed she wrought in King’s Landing. Daenerys’s flip to madness was utterly unearned by David Benioff and D. Martin will one day finally deliver the ending he’s been working toward all these years, I was reassured. Jon even got to pet his dire wolf Ghost, finally, before he journeyed with Tormund and the other Free Folk beyond the Wall to make a new life.Īs a book reader who hopes that George R. Seriously-anyone important in Westeros who ever spent a minute scheming about anything is dead, except for Tyrion, who professed himself thoroughly cowed by the whole war and promised to atone for his sins going forward. Arya, eager to do something new, hops on a boat and sails west into uncharted waters.Īfter the misery of “The Bells,” it was a finale undeniably steeped in fan service, giving audience favorites such as Brienne, Davos, Sam, and Bronn seats on the new small council and doing away with literally every bloodthirsty or unstable member of the cast. “Bran the Broken” then names Tyrion as his hand, sends Jon to the Wall as punishment for killing Dany, and allows Sansa to run the North as an independent kingdom. In the wake of that carnage, Westeros’s surviving leaders gather to sift through the mess and appoint Bran king. After a long chat with a depressed and imprisoned Tyrion, Jon realizes he’s not into that plan and stabs his queen (and aunt and former lover) in front of the Iron Throne, which Drogon then impressively melts before taking his mother’s body to parts unknown. To summarize: Daenerys the conqueror quickly indicates that she’s not done with warfare and promises to “liberate” people from tyranny all over the world. After a largely disappointing lead-up, I was at least satisfied by where the pieces fell. The difference for me was that, by the time of the finale (titled “The Iron Throne”), I was less worried about plausibility and more just wondering how everything would end up. ![]() The move to crown him was arrived at with the same kind of alarming speed that accompanied just about every big plot twist this season. In all the warring between Daenerys, Jon, and Cersei, Bran was mostly overlooked as a contender, having become a living Wikipedia database and losing his personality in the process. The sudden decision by Tyrion and company to name Bran the new Lord of the Seven-sorry, Six-Kingdoms might have prompted a fair bit of whiplash for viewers. Honestly, someone should have thought to crown Bran earlier. Three, he can see across the sea of time and has the power to mentally experience every memory anyone in Westeros has ever had, which is definitely a helpful skill set going forward. Two, he’s got the temperament-ever since he assumed the mantle of the three-eyed raven, I haven’t seen him get remotely upset about anything, so no Mad King potential there. One, as the eldest male Stark, he’s got the lordly bloodline to appease the country’s more tradition-obsessed members. Because no screeners were made available to critics in advance this year, we’ll be posting our thoughts on the series finale in installments.ĭavid Sims: Let me start this review by listing a few of Brandon Stark’s qualifications to hold the Iron Throne (or whatever throne takes its place) of Westeros.

ICEFaces offer two sets of components: ICE components and ACE components. Just a quick reminder: JSF implementations offer up the basic HTML components while component libraries add the extra stuff to make UI development quick and easy.įor this example, I am using ICEFaces ACE Components. ![]() Also note that there are lots of ways to set up a JSF project – I’m using this one for simplicity.

If you want to have a lot of control over the JavaScript, then this is not the solution. JSF and component libraries are perfect for certain situations, but may not be a good choice at all for others. I would like to first reiterate that what you choose is going to depend on your needs for a particular project. In this post, I would like to give a couple of examples of the kinds of components that can be used to quickly bring up a user interface.

These trees can be left to grow naturally, or they may be pruned to control their shape.Īfter they have finished blooming in July or August, any branches growing across other branches may be removed. It can be pruned at any time of the year except when blooms are forming on the tips of the branches in early to mid-summer. Fortunately, pruning a paniculata will not cause any problems with blooming. Pruning may be the concern of many who grow this plant. ![]() This can easily be done with 2 or 3 posts in the ground that are attached to the tree with string. This will help the tree remain upright in strong windstorms, and ensure the tree grows straight up instead of sideways. If you purchase a hydrangea from the nursery already in tree form, you should provide extra bracing & support for the tree the first year or two. The first year it is planted, the little tree should be watched carefully, and the soil should not be allowed to dry out. It should be planted at the same level as it was in the pot. Like most plants, it does best in moist but well-drained soil. It should not be planted too deeply. It should be planted in a location that receives at least four hours of sun a day for most of the spring and summer. It can thrive in full sun, but the blooms may last longer if they are in some shade during the hottest part of the day. Planting the hydrangea tree properly is the key to its success. Paniculatas dependably bloom on new growth every year in mid-summer, and the show is spectacular. Nurseries prune them into single trunk trees when they are very young.

Large, well-branched, and vigorous, Vanilla Strawberry™ reaches 6 to 7 feet high and 4 to 5 feet wide within just a few seasons. Meanwhile, new flowerheads are arising all the time, so a blooming shrub is likely to have the full range of colors from pale green to carmine all displayed at once. Within a week or two they are blushing pink, and eventually become a rich shade of rose. The enormous pointed flowerheads get underway in midsummer in most climates, beginning green, then quickly turning a creamy shade of white. With blooms that arise continuously for many weeks, changing colors as they mature, plus a habit that turns from upright to cascading, Vanilla Strawberry™ Hydrangea is a showpiece of a shrub that looks a bit different every time you glance at it, all summer long.
