![]() This causes the wealthy men of Gotham City to bid for a night with Ivy followed by the Dynamic Duo themselves. She then takes the Heart of Isis necklace and puts herself up for bidding, offering an evening of her company for the winner, saying that whoever won would be able to see her how she was at the moment, and later everything they didn't see, seductively teasing the promise of appearing naked. She seduced them both in turn with her love-dust and her seductively poisonous charms, offering them sexual pleasures while whispering insults about them behind their back, making each think she preferred them. Pleasantries over, Poison Ivy turned her attentions to Batman and Robin. Making her way down to the stage where Batman and Robin waited, Isley greeted the duo with a friendly "Hi there" and introduced herself to her adoring masses as "Poison Ivy". Dousing the crowd - and the Dynamic Duo, her intended targets - with concentrated pheromones (which she referred to as "love-dust"), Isley had the room thoroughly enraptured by her. On top of a tribal-themed "mouth" overlooking the crowd, adorned in a fluffy magenta gorilla costume, she performed a seductive striptease, revealing herself as the red-haired leafy poison-lipped goddess that killed Jason Woodrue. True to her intentions, Isley makes her presence known to Batman and at the ball, gate-crashing the party with a literally show-stopping performance before a captive audience. Leaving quietly, Isley decided to take him up on the invitation, declaring to rid herself of the pests and leaving Gotham hers for the greening. Attempting to soften the blow, Wayne gives Isley an invitation to an upcoming event (a "Save the Rainforest" themed ball) where the duo would appear if she wished to meet them. ![]() Her mad proclamations are laughed off by the press and she is explained to that in Gotham City Batman and Robin are protecting them - even from plants and flowers. Angered, Isley proclaims that the plants will reclaim the planet and that there would no one to protect them. After brief consideration he rejects the proposal, reasoning the cost of human life would be too great to allow for it. Pamela Isley she ambushes her former boss Bruce Wayne, Wayne Enterprise's CEO, at a press event to have him help her in her plans by having him stop all projects that poison the environment. Under the guise of her former persona Dr. At the airport, Bane hospitalized ten security guards Ivy killed a business man with her kiss and stole his limousine (off-screen). Leaving the lab and her former life burning in her wake, Ivy moves to Gotham City to seek support - legitimate or otherwise - for her war against mankind. She burned her lab to the ground and left for Gotham City. With a henchman of Woodrue's creation, Bane, in tow Isley declared the world belonged to the plants and herself, deeming herself "Mother Nature" thanks to the new form her former persona's death had given her. Upon finishing, she revealed the now-toxic nature of her lips, and within moments he died, choking to death on the natural venom corroding his organs. Easily seducing the smitten Woodrue, Isley lured him into sharing a long, passionate kiss with her. A far cry from her previous appearance, Isley now bloomed with irresistible beauty and beguiling charm. Upon inspecting it the ground erupts, expelling Isley, who had actually been in hibernation rather than dead. ![]() Suddenly, the ground rumbles and boils with supernatural force, glowing with eerie pink light. Later, Woodrue talks on the phone in Isley's old work area and disturbs her natural grave, now growing with ivy over it. Disgusted by what he has used her research for, she rejects him (by telling him he "won't be able to get a job teaching high school chemistry") and calls him a psycho, and he kills her in response by pushing her into venom samples, the chemicals cooking the ground and burying her into the soil. He tries to get her to join him in his conquest, saying that he owes it to her research and that they can rule together. Jason Woodrue's plans for world domination, using her research materials to do so, she is quickly discovered by Woodrue and dragged back into her lab by him. Like her villainous persona, she aspired to give plants and flowers the means to fight back against the "thoughtless ravages of men" but lacked the means to do so.

In fact, models like the Chaparral Vortex have proven that jet boats can be effective for watersports. Jets are overcoming the stigmas that once plagued them, and are becoming just another propulsion alternative. Yup, Yamaha's SX, AR, Limited, and Wake series jet boats have squashed any notion that they’re little more than large Jet Skis. Yamaha’s jet boats dominate the runabout market in much of the 20 to 24 foot range, and this AR240 was deemed one of the Top 10 Runabouts of 2016. What might surprise, however, is the fact that the best-selling 23-footer as of late is not powered by an outboard or stern drive engine, but instead is a jet. Still able to be trailered and easy to fit beside the house or at the dock, they're also sizable enough to take on bigger waters, and accommodate more friends who want to come along for the ride. It's no surprise that this is a popular size range. Take the 22’ to 24’ runabout class, for example. Jet boats have proven their value in the world of small bow riders, and now they're proving their popularity in other ways as well.

Remember when your on the plane the intake only draws water from 1" below the hull. On the odd occasion when you cant get a clear spot to start off in then that’s a problem and I have experienced this once and I have owned a Jet boat for 20 years and that was because the lead boat chickened out and slowed down, if we stayed on the plane we should have been O.K.

You can do alot with a grayscale image to make it look almost as good as color. You mentioned the 452- this is a color printer- There is a great chance of both ruining the transfer belt (ITB) and the fusing unit due to contamination- neither the fuser or ITB is a field replaceable unit- meaning you will most likely need a service tech to replace these parts- a color printer that has both a field replaceable fuser and transfer belt may be better- depending on what type of volume we are talking about- but a black and white printer would probably be much more cost effective, because there is no ITB to have to replace. You will get the best results running the labels from tray 1 (aka the bypass tray / manual feed tray) not only is the paper path shorter through the machine- but there are also fewer "bends", so there is less of a chance of the label peeling inside the printer. This means you will need to run the printer on a "heavier" paper setting and possibly at a higher temperature to assure proper toner adhesion. ![]() Also, you need to imagine a vinly label as 3 sheets of paper thickness- you have the wax or chemical coated backing paper/ the layer of adhesive/ and the label itself. Vinly labels will shrink over time, leaving a minute adhesive border around the edge of the page. The 2 biggest problems you will encounter are adhesive contamination inside the printer on the feed rollers, and premature fuser failure due to the hi temp requirement as well contamination from adhesive. Really, no printer manufactuer would recommend running a heavy duty/ vinyl/ adhesive backed labels through their machines. Some use smaller P3015's and some use M712's.

One obvious scenario in which animals mate with their relatives is when there’s just no other option. So there are strong reasons for animals to avoid mating with a relative – but are there any situations where inbreeding might actually be beneficial? Mating with a relative How animal genes go into battle to dominate their offspring But when parents are related, there’s a higher chance that both parents will carry the same unhealthy genes, which the offspring must then inherit. Usually, if a parent carries a gene for a rare genetic disease, the other parent will carry the healthy version of that gene, which is then expressed in their offspring. This happens because half of the offspring’s genes come from each parent. Mating with a relative, on the other hand, increases the likelihood that parents will pass rare genetic diseases to their offspring. One of them is their degree of relatedness, but animals are also interested in the resources the partner can provide, and whether they carry desirable genes.Ĭhoosing an unrelated mate is attractive, seeing as it increases the genetic diversity of the resultant offspring. This may seem surprising or unsettling, but evolutionary theorists have pointed out for decades that inbreeding is not always bad – and that in some cases, for instance where mate choice is limited, it might even be beneficial.Īnimals account for a variety of factors when choosing a mate. We reviewed 40 years of scholarship on animal mate selection, and found that animals don’t tend to differentiate between relatives and non-relatives when choosing a mate. We’d expect to see the same attitude extend to animals, who may lack a social distaste for incest but are, in the end, subject to the same biological pressures to produce the fittest offspring – which we assume means breeding with an unrelated mate.īut our recent study has called this assumption into question. Mixing genes with a non-relative is beneficial because it increases genetic diversity, while genetic defects often occur in the offspring of related parents. It’s a strong social taboo, and it’s underpinned by sound biological reasoning. Sometimes I forget how long it’s been since I’ve showered.We humans tend to regard incest as deeply disturbing.My diet plan when I’m home alone consists of only allowing myself to eat what my kids have left over or dropped on the floor.I’m like Velma from Scooby Doo without my glasses and they’re Gucci!

I would like to add L’Oreal to the list of cruelty free companies. I find this so hypocritical and I just can’t understand the justification for it as it clearly isn’t changing their minds about animal testing. They see that they can split the difference and they know there is some endorsement for them from sites like this one, leaping bunny, and peta… despite the fact that most of their money comes from abusing animals. ![]() I don’t think these big companies are stupid. So it’s more like… “hey, we can make great money selling burts bees, and it costs a little more to make, but we will charge more.” Likewise “We also need more affordable brands and many people don’t care what we test on, so we will still make those products to serve that client base.” Win for them with no compromise. They see that there is a market in both areas. They aren’t going to stop making “auburn” just because “chestnut” is doing well. However, I think it’s just become another market for them the same way a hair coloring brand has several colors to meet several markets.
