![]() They lost me when they replaced Cass Cain with Stephanie Brown, making it so all of DC's derivative female characters are suddenly identical out of costume. They lost me when they decided Wonder Woman would make the best Star Sapphire out of the JLA. They lost me about the time it became clear that White Lanterns weren't going to be just as inherently bad as Black Lanterns and the potential moral about extremes being a bad thing-that had been building up by showing how surrender to a single emotion, and complete lack of emotion were all BAD-dissolved. Infinite Crisis, Seven Soldiers (which was worthy of being called an epic, a rare trait in pop culture), ONE YEAR LATER, 52, the Wonder Woman relaunch, the new Blue Beetle, joy at each renewal of Manhunter, Final Crisis, even freaking Countdown (where I was watching Kyle Rayner, Donn Troy, and freaking Jason Todd play off each other-if only they'd kept Ryan Choi with them). I was having a blast during those company crossovers. ![]() Green Lantern in particular was pretty fucking awesome right after Rebirth, and during Sinestro Corps War and the the buildup for Blackest Night. I used to love DC, I was fanishly obsessed with the metaplot. I'm just losing interest in the DC Universe. I'm not trying to send a "shape up" message to DC by dropping the books. This is not a boycott reesulting from outrage or protesting anything. I'm finally dropping Green Lantern, and I'm down to maybe two or three DC books now, and DC used to be 90% of my pull list. I could do 3400 words yesterday on the Sentry because right now I'm enjoying a lot of Marvel's output so I can actually give a shit about what's going on in that universe, but I'm past that point with DC. I don't even have the interest left to rant. Yeah, I know the Predator is from the 80s Green Lantern stories and has historically worn silver armor on his shoulders, but you know what? Star Sapphire used to look like this:ĭon't give me any shit about the costume being traditional. Not just fully dressed, but hosting the embodiment of love and lust-the thing that is causing all of these really gorgeous alien women to run around with practically no clothes on-and he's covered head to toe in black with only purple accents. So he gets to be more in touch with the Violet and more powerful than all the women, and he gets to be fully dressed. So not only can men tap into love and harness it, this one is actually better that any woman who makes up the. Yes, that's right! DC has decided to introduce a male Star Sapphire, and not only that-he's the Predator! Meaning he's hosting that big lizardy entity that lived in the violet power battery, the equivalent of Ion or Parallax. ![]() Please see the Previews Order Form for more information. Retailers please note: This issue will ship with two covers. But how is this entity unlike the others? And what does it want with Carol Ferris? Meanwhile, the White Lantern is defended by an unlikely hero… (At least Ethan Van Sciver agreed on that)Īrt and cover by DOUG MAHNKE & CHRISTIAN ALAMYġ:10 White Lantern Variant cover by RYAN SOOK, FERNANDO PASARIN & JOEL GOMEZīRIGHTEST DAY continues as what readers have been asking for finally arrives: a male Star Sapphire in the form of the Predator. ![]() (Shh, don't tell them about Hawkman or Namor.)Īnd how we all pointed out that it was stereotypical and fucking stupid that the Star Sapphire Corps that harnessed the energy of love was entirely female because not only does that box women into the sex class role, but it suggests that men are incapable of tapping into one of those basic seven emotions that Johns was pushing as the building blocks to all sentient life. Remember back when that hideous female Star Sapphire costume debuted and DC completely ignored our points about how horrible and sexist it and the entire Star Sapphire retcon was, but some of their artists acknowledged that the costume might not work for men because God forbid we see manflesh in comic books.

“Communities everywhere are depending on us to deliver these critical components, and we’re committed to doing whatever it takes. “That’s why Jeff City continues to operate, day and night, despite the obvious challenges,” said Steve McKinney, senior VP and manager for Transformers North America at Power Grids. Today, as utility companies, like Ameren Missouri, work hard to ensure that critical institutions like hospitals can keep the lights on and continue to care for patients, demand for transformers and other key grid components remains strong. This crisis, though, has served to further highlight the important role the factory plays in both the global energy market and the local economy in Missouri. This change comes at a particularly challenging time, as the world responds to the global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. With a workforce of more than 800 and growing, “Jeff City” - as the facility is fondly called - manufactures transformers, a critical element of the world’s power grids. Previously a major division of the multi-national company, ABB, the Power Grids division has joined forces with Hitachi to form a stand-alone joint venture, Hitachi ABB Power Grids, which continues to focus on the global power market.ĭespite this rather momentous development, to quote French author Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr “the more things change, the more they remain the same,” at least when it comes to the company’s commitment to Jefferson City. These combined would make Mitsubishi Electric Power Systems the largest supplier of T&D equipment in the global market.A big change has come to one of Jefferson City’s largest employers, the former ABB Power Grids plant. Two, for strengthening their global position using ABB’s established sales channel in countries across the globe, especially for a stronger position in EMEA region. One, to enhance their existing product portfolio to include more “digital” products in the line-up like DERMS and Enterprise Software. This potential acquisition of ABB Power Grids division will help them two-fold. Over the last few years, it has been increasing its presence in Europe and MEA regions as well through its regional subsidiaries. ![]() Mitsubishi Electric Power Systems is active in Asia Pacific and North America. HVDC Systems (recent entry to the market).It has the following products in competition to ABB’s Power Grids division right now: Mitsubishi Electric Power Systems is a leading Japanese supplier of transmission and distribution products. ![]() Starting with a supply perspective, the products and systems offered by this division are: To understand the importance of this event, one must understand the market in which the Power Grids division operates. A potential reason ABB would sell this prolific division is the challenging EBITA performance of ~10%, which is the lowest division of all and has shareholder concern given also the slow growth in overall transmission and distribution market this division operates in. This business of ABB is the second biggest by revenue, bringing in $10B in 2017 (~28% of company total), even though the actual orders declined in 2017 to $9.2B from $10.5B last year. For years now, ABB has dominated the power transmission and distribution components landscape having a market leading position in countries across the globe. News is circulating that ABB is in negotiations with three Asian manufacturers, Mitsubishi Electric, Hitachi Power Systems & State Grid Corporation of China (SGCC), to sell its Power Grids division. The elevation of Jet but not Delta to the ARIA hall of fame is evidence of how Delta's talents as a songwriter and musician are underrated. While " poptimism" helped legitimise the genre, there's still work to be done to shift these perceptions. Rock is seen as "authentic" and masterful pop is not worthy of such acclaim. Popular music and culture with predominantly female audiences is often dismissed. Innocent Eyes defined a generation of Australians, many who were teenage girls. ![]() This impacts which artists achieve consecrated status. Characteristics of "good" music and artistic integrity often hold masculine connotations. Rolling Stone's Greatest Australian Albums of All Time only features two females in the top 20 (Kylie and The Go-Betweens). Many "best of" music lists are dominated by male artists. The musical legacy of women is not recognised in the same ways as their male counterparts. Since the hall of fame began in 1988, 80 bands and artists have been celebrated. In the decade to 2010, she sold more albums in Australia than any other artist - local or international. Get Born was certified nine-times platinum Innocent Eyes is 23 times platinum.

Their debut album, Get Born, was also released in 2003, featuring the smash hit Are You Gonna Be My Girl?. ![]() It was recently announced Jet would be inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame. She has released duets with Tony Bennett and Olivia Newton-John, written songs for Celine Dion, and filled in for Adele with less than an hour to rehearse.ĭelta has mentored artists on The Voice performed as Grizabella in Cats her latest film, Love Is In The Air, has been streamed 12 million times and she's achieved five number one albums. She's one of our country's standout performers, taking to the stage at AFL Grand Finals, Sydney Mardi Gras and the Commonwealth Games opening ceremony (twice). Delta has remained an integral part of the Australian music scene. So why is Delta Goodrem overlooked in Australian music history?ĭelta recently went through her archives from this time as part of a sold-out 20th anniversary tour, a celebration of an album that captured the hearts and attention of the Australian public in a way that hasn't been replicated. To put that into context: one in every four Australian households owned a copy. It sold 4.5 million copies worldwide, including 1.2 million in Australia. Innocent Eyes is the second highest selling Australian album in Australia of all time, only behind John Farnham's Whispering Jack. My story is one of many significantly shaped by this record. We've worked together, travelled the world, and stood by one another on wedding days. The music bonded us, but our relationships transformed into something greater. It was the catalyst for lifelong friendships. ![]() I played that original copy so much it started skipping and I had to buy a replacement.ĭelta's music has continued to define my life.

During this process, data that are too dark are filtered out (luminous intensity = infinity) Therefore we first had to calculate a preview and measure the maximum brightness, adjust the light intensity and finally calculate the image. The goal was that the preview images should have more or less the same brightness. We then calculated this scene automatically for each IES file using python.

She shared that her hobby was writing country music songs, but depression had caused her to put lyric writing on hold. Some were in various states of intoxication, but all were positive and friendly.Ī woman who described herself as one of the mothers of the bride chatted with me for awhile. Then the reception began, and throughout the afternoon, wedding guests would stop by and comment on my painting. All were in a happy mood.Īs the “english” wedding ceremony came to a close, a great cheer echoed across the lake. One of the bridesmaids displayed an impressive tattoo on her arm and shoulder. He stopped by to comment on my painting several times. The ring bearer, a smart-looking chap of 5 or 6, wore suspenders and a bow tie. So at the “english” wedding, the bridesmaids arrived in colorful burgundy dresses. Non-Amish are referred to as “English” by the Amish Folk. This particular group seemed more progressive than expected. Also, it seemed odd that there was not a horse and buggy to be seen anywhere around the park. Admittedly, I am not an expert on Amish culture, however, I thought that most Amish weddings took place in a church or in the home of the bride. One young man was in a small boat.Ī state park appeared to be a very non-traditional location for an Amish wedding. They seemed to be disinterested in the festivities. Several boys and young men were relaxing by the boat dock. They wore blue dresses like the bride, but with black coats. Of the wedding guests that I could see, there were 5 women standing together, watching the ceremony with great interest. The wedding party was out of my direct view, but the bride wore a blue dress, and the groom wore a simple black suit. It was interesting for a variety of reasons. Or I could face north and paint an Amish wedding, which took place by the lake in front of the boathouse. ![]() From my vantage point, I had a choice: I could face south, and paint the wedding by the beach house. Somehow, I managed to set up my canvas smack-dab in the middle, between both weddings. The ceremonies were a contrast in differences. What was surprising-these weddings occurred simultaneously, roughly 100 yards apart. That in itself is not surprising-it’s a beautiful place. On September 25, 2021, there were not one but two weddings at Backbone. What I ended up capturing was unexpected… and far more meaningful. I started painting late in the afternoon. I really liked this composition-with the sunlight, the long shadows and the curve of the beach, echoed by the sidewalk and the parking lot above. I set up my easel on a picnic table near the beach house. This year, I found a visually appealing location along the lake. But the time absolutely flies by when I paint. Devoting 3+ hours to a single canvas can feel self-indulgent on a busy fall weekend. ![]() I really enjoy painting outside, but I rarely make the time to do it. Every fall, I like to paint plein air at Backbone, Iowa’s first state park, near Manchester. ![]() His first-round 2-under-par 70 left him within striking range of Cory Connors. Unlike Arnold and Jack, Phil was lurking around the leader board from the very start. The only thing that was very reminiscent of Phil Mickelson’s game was a brilliant short game that featured dynamic lob shots, rock-solid chips, superb sand play, and a putting touch to die for. He kept the ball in play, played it safe when it was necessary, and swung with fluidity and confidence. Mickelson has often been compared to Arnold Palmer for his bold and sometimes foolhardy approach to the game, but this time around it wasn’t that Phil of old. He wore sunglasses, walked slowly, didn’t actively engage with the crowd as has been his history, and he wasn’t the all-or-nothing golfer that we had been so very familiar with. ![]() Then again, I’m not sure that was vintage Phil Mickelson we saw over those four rounds at Kiawah Island. Just prior to the PGA, Phil was considered washed up. Had anyone showed a lack of golf knowledge and put an emotional $100 bet on Phil to win the PGA Championship, they would have pocketed $20,000. Going into last week’s PGA, Mickelson was a very distant 168th in the Fed Ex Cup standings and was considered to be the 115th-best golfer, according to the Official World Golf Rankings. He was just one month shy of his 51st birthday and it was his sixth major title. Last Sunday, Phil Mickelson became the oldest golfer to win a major championship as he defeated a star-studded field during the PGA Championship on the Ocean Course at Kiawah Island. Less than one year removed from college golf, Tiger Woods prevailed in the 1997 Masters to win by an eye-popping 12 strokes. Jack Nicklaus shocked the golfing world in 1986 by shooting a final-nine 30 at age 46 to win his sixth Masters green jacket and 18th major title. Arnold Palmer charged from 15th place in the final round to capture the 1960 National Open at Cherry Hills. In 1953 Ben Hogan returned from a near-death car crash to crush his opponents and win the U.S. In 1913 the boy-caddie, Francis Ouimet, defeated Harry Vardon and Ted Ray to win the United States Open at the Country Club. Over the course of the 161-year history of major championship golf, there have been six defining moments that have forever been etched into the game’s annals. ![]() “But this other side of Randy is coming out of this milieu. “Obviously he’s doing his songwriting thing, and what a songwriter,” he continues.

To remove unbound primary antibody, wash the membrane vigorously in TBS five times for five minutes each. After blocking, the membrane is rinsed in wash buffer and incubated at room temperature for a few hours or overnight at 4✬ in a dilute antibody solution (monoclonal or polyclonal) specific to the target protein. This step reduces overall background signal and prevents non-specific binding of the antibody to the blotting membrane. After transferring the proteins to the membrane, blocking buffers (e.g., BSA, 3%-5% non-fat dry milk, casein, gelatin, and Tween-20) are used to block unreacted areas on the blot (i.e., areas that do not contain protein). Semi-dry transfers are quicker and easier than standard wet transfers, but they are also significantly more expensive and may produce patchy or uneven blots. This process can occur under standard wet or semi-dry conditions. First, proteins are taken from the gel to a nitrocellulose or PVDF membrane through the application of an electric field. Western blotting is also a quantitative test to determine the amount of protein in sample.Western blotting is performed in five steps – transfer, blocking, incubation with primary antibody, incubation with secondary antibody, and protein detection and analysis.The enzyme convert the substrate to give visible colored product, so band of color can be visualized in the membrane.To visualize the enzyme action, the reaction mixture is incubated with specific substrate.Step VII: Treatment with suitable substrate Secondary antibody (2° Ab) is antibody against primary antibody (anti-antibody) so it can bind with Ag-Ab complex.alkaline phosphatase or Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is labelled with secondary antibody. The secondary antibody is enzyme labelled.Step VI: Treatment with secondary antibody The primary antibody (1° Ab) is specific to desired protein so it form Ag-Ab complex.So before adding the primary antibody the membrane is non-specifically saturated or masked by using casein or Bovine serum albumin (BSA). Antibodies are also protein so they are likely to bind the nitrocellulose paper.Blocking is very important step in western blotting.In electro-blotting nitrocellulose membrane is sandwich between gel and cassette of filter paper and then electric current is passed through the gel causing transfer of protein to the membrane.For fast and more efficient transfer of desired protein from the gel to nitrocellulose paper electro-blotting can be used.This type of blotting is time consuming and may take 1-2 days The separated protein from gel get transferred to nitrocellulose paper by capillary action. The nitrocellulose membrane is placed on the gel.Protein are negatively charged, so they move toward positive (anode) pole as electric current is applied.The small size protein moves faster than large size protein.The proteins are separated on the basis of electric charge, isoelectric point, molecular weight, or combination of these all.The sample is loaded in well of SDS-PAGE Sodium dodecyl sulfate- poly-acrylamide gel electrophoresis.Tracking dye (bromothymol blue) is also added in sample to monitor the movement of proteins.When sufficient amount of protein sample is obtained, it is diluted in loading buffer containing glycerol which helps to sink the sample in well.The concentration of protein is determined by spectroscopy.To prevent denaturing of protein protease inhibitor is used.This step is also known as tissue preparation. Protein is extracted from cell by mechanical or chemical lysis of cell.Cell lysate is most common sample for western blotting.Treatment with specific substrate if enzyme is alkaline phosphatase, substrate is p-nitro phenyl phosphate which give color.Treatment with secondary antibody( enzyme labelled anti Ab).Blotting: electrical or capillary blotting. ![]() Western blotting is also known as immunoblotting because it uses antibodies to detect the protein. ![]() In this method labelled antibody against particular protein is used identify the desired protein, so it is a specific test.Western blotting technique is used for identification of particular protein from the mixture of protein.
