I recently completed my two years of engineering study. Now 3rd year's switch is on. Only two years to go before all these switchs become black and white.
What next? A bright future or...

MANILA, Philippines – Filipinos from 1,041 cities and towns will join the world in spending Earth Hour and environmental group World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) Philippines listed 10 ways to do as Filipinos turn off the lights from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Saturday.
“The switchoff signifies the start of a very personal and lasting lifestyle change to minimize our ecological impacts and to do our bit for a more sustainable planet. Personal pledges can take many forms, from upgrading to energy-efficient appliances to planting and stewarding a small grove of native trees,” said Naderev Saño, head of climate change and energy program of WWF-Philippines and national director of Earth Hour Philippines.

An emergency stop cover I made to replace the one that was missing on the NVR switch. It's only held in place with magnets so, it's not perfect... Anyway, I've since bought the proper replacement part from a Metabo dealer.

Powerless ... but Dubai powers on
Gulf News Report
Dubai pulled together yesterday when a power failure caught the city unawares.
Just as traffic seemed to get out of control, just as nerves started to fray when ATMs did not work and there were long queues at petrol stations, and just as the heat brought beads of sweat to foreheads, residents rose to the occasion and overcame.
The bond that makes this city so vibrant triumphed.
According to a release by by the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (Dewa), a sudden failure in one of the main transmission substations at the Jebel Ali Power Station caused a power failure at 9.47am.
It said emergency and maintenance teams were dispatched to attend to the fault and gradual restoration of power to vital areas started in less than two-and-a-half hours.
Dewa officials dismissed wire reports saying there was a fire in a gas pipeline as pure speculation.
An official told Gulf News last night: "It is normal for people to assume such things during emergencies. At this point in time it is a technical fault that led to the power failure. It is not a fire."
The technical fault led to a "cascade effect" tripping other stations linked to the supply network, he said. It was not a total outage and some areas of Jebel Ali were not affected.
Most mobile phone users in Dubai said they could not make or receive calls, but Etisalat said otherwise in a release.
It said: "Mobile, fixed line and the internet network continued to function with normal efficiency. It has been brought to Etisalat's attention that approximately 35 per cent of mobile coverage area in Dubai, concentrated in the commercial buildings area, was affected.
"The space and facilities available in these locations for back-up power supply is very limited, which is the reason for the service drop."
There were no major accidents or fires, with police deploying personnel immediately at traffic signals to ease the flow.
