![]() But I doubt anyone would take Mihane’s arguably creepy behavior seriously. She also “helps” Toma with some problems despite the unsavory implications for herself. Mihane’s anger though is usually reserved for those who insult Toma, although she comes close to being violent with him a couple of times, so she is a bit yandere. On the other hand, it’s also hard to take seriously the series at face value when there’s a girl habitually standing on the roof fence to shout at the world or when another character provides some… colorful narration. (Think Rise from Gakuen Prince in terms of her expressions.) Some other jokes may fall flat or be considered distasteful depending on the audience though (like Mihane deciding to punish some girls by lifting their skirts high with at least one boy around). However, the various forms of Mihane’s devilish smile make up the majority of the comedy. There are also a few times where Mihane and Toma’s positions are flipped versus traditional shoujo staples (see: princess carry). Meanwhile, her best friend, Maria, loves to see Mihane’s reactions and likes to “help” Mihane… like only putting on makeup on half her face so Mihane looks like a before-and-after commercial. In the first chapter, Mihane appears with a chainsaw. She can carry a couple of guys her age with ease. Mihane is so awkward at smiling that she could give Jason and Pennywise a run for their money. Yes, it’s a story of two high schoolers getting closer together despite one’s yankee tendencies, but the selling point is the craziness. Queen Bee is wholeheartedly, unabashedly a comedy. That still doesn’t mean he returns her feelings, though, but at least she’s been promoted from being a stalker or the butt of a joke. She slightly misunderstood, but her feelings swell when Toma apologizes anyway. But things seem to be going okay - very well even - until Mihane overhears some not-so-nice things being said about her by Toma and his friends. But between her own incompetence, short fuse, and some teasing by her best friend, Maria, things keep going off-track. Toma agrees, and Mihane tries her best to be a fit for Toma. Toma is about to turn her down, but Mihane manages to convince him to hang out with her for a few days to get to know her. In fact, he’s weirded out by her constant creepy stares, and when he finally confronts her, Mihane blurts out a confession. There’s no way her crush, the handsome Toma (personal name Yoshihiro), would like her. And Mihane has inherited both of those traits, much to her consternation. Mihane’s parents are a scary-looking man and a short-tempered woman. After all, it’s a little older, short, and the author is not a hot commodity in the English-speaking fandom. So this manga can be read as a stand alone, but it’s still not the type of series the company usually goes for. I only have a hazy memory of Love Attack!, but there doesn’t seem to be a lot of references to that manga (or Girl Got Game, since they’re taking place in the same world) in Queen Bee. So I was a little surprised that Kodansha Comics would pick up this series. Anyway, their daughter is the protagonist of Queen Bee. Tokyopop also started releasing this series, but they dropped it around the halfway mark. This short scene eventually led to the manga Love Attack! (aka Junai Tokkou Taichou!), which focuses on that coworker and his wife in high school. Well, late in the series, one of the heroine’s coworkers starts talking (bragging) about his wife. Queen Bee! is an option for those looking for a comedy-heavy romance for a tweens that loves craziness.Īnybody remember the manga Girl Got Game (aka Power!!)? It was released in English by Tokyopop. Mihane plans to go all out, but will things work out? ![]() Neither of them were expecting her to blurt out a confession! Toma agrees to hold his answer for three days during a trial period. ![]() Mihane, nicknamed “Killer Demon” due to her temper and looks, is crushing on her classmate Toma. ![]() ![]() ![]() The goal of the current study was to determine the analytical characteristics of the i-STAT cTnI assay (i-STAT, Princeton, NJ), a 10-min POC assay, designed to be performed at the bedside. ![]() Quality specifications that apply to cardiac troponin monitoring using central laboratory instrumentation, including both analytical (antibody selection, calibration to appropriate standards, calculation of limits of detection, interferent studies) and pre-analytical (sample storage effects, specimen types) factors, must also be applied in the assessment of POC cTn assays. In chest pain centers, patient triage and therapy management are often reliant upon cardiac troponin findings over the initial 6 to 9 h after presentation in the emergency department. In addition Emergency Medicine has endorsed the need for rapid turn around of cardiac biomarker testing, specifically cardiac troponin. Point-of-care (POC)/near bedside testing systems have been developed to reduce delays in specimen transportation and processing that often occur when cardiac markers are measured in a central laboratory. When the central laboratory is used to monitor biomarkers the American College of Cardiology, American Heart Association, and the National Academy of Clinical Biochemistry have designated that cTn results be available in <60 min from the time a patient's blood is drawn to reporting of results to the clinician. Differentiating patients with acute coronary syndromes is predicated on an increased cTn (non-ST-elevation MI) and normal cTn (unstable angina). In addition, prognosis and risk of death and cardiac events are related in part to the extent of increases of cTn in patients with an ischemic mechanism of injury. In the clinical setting of ischemia, the designation of myocardial infarction (MI) is predicated on an increased cTn above the 99th percentile reference cutoff. Conclusions: The i-STAT cTnI assay is a sensitive and precise monitor of cTnI, poised for point-of-care/near bedside clinical utilization for triage, diagnostics and risk management of acute coronary syndrome patients.Ĭardiac troponin (cTn) has been designated as the preferred biomarker for the diagnosis of myocardial injury. Regression analysis for the i-STAT cTnI between whole blood and plasma specimens and for whole blood between the i-STAT and Stratus CS cTnI assays demonstrated slopes of 1.06 and 0.89, respectively. An equimolar response within 5% was found for reduced and phosphorylated forms of TIC and IC complexes. ![]() The assay was not affected by common interferents. The 99th percentile reference limit was 0.08 μg/l. Results: Total imprecision (CV) of 10% and 20% were seen at 0.09 and 0.07 μg/l, respectively. Factors studied included antibody specificity, detection limit, imprecision, linearity, assay specificity, sample type stability, interferences, reference limit determination and comparison vs. A total of 186 whole blood specimens (lithium heparin) were collected from patients presenting with symptoms suggestive of acute coronary syndromes (ACS) for correlation studies as well as from 162 healthy subjects for reference interval determination. Methods: Three different hospitals participated in a patient specimen and analytical validation study ( n =186) for the i-STAT cTnI assay carried out in real time. Background : This study determines the analytical characteristics of the i-STAT cardiac troponin I assay (cTnI i-STAT, Princeton, NJ), a 10-min POC assay, designed to be performed at the bedside. ![]() ![]() The alternative is that perhaps the twins were the product of both Data and Lore. Either scenario could make it more likely for one of them to be the "Destroyer" that the Zhat Vash are after.Īlternatively, could it be possible that Dahj contained the last semblance of Data and Soji is a product of Lore? If indeed that's the case, it could mean that Data really is no more following Dahj's apparent destruction. What if Dahj and Soji were created using Lore's consciousness? That could explain their advanced emotional depth, which was already present in Lore long before Data received his emotional upgrade. In many ways, Lore was more advanced than Data - particularly on the emotional spectrum. Soong and became a recurring villain on Star Trek: The Next Generation. ![]() Lore is an evil version of Data, who was created by Dr. RELATED: Star Trek: Picard - Is Soji ACTUALLY Data’s Daughter?ĭata had an older "brother" with a positronic brain, Lore, who could potentially make things more interesting on Star Trek: Picard. Could another neuron be used to clone Data, too? Putting that aside for the moment, though, some fans are suggesting that Data may have had nothing to do with creating Soji and Dahj. That gives way to another theory in itself. ![]() So far, everyone assumes that Maddox used neuronic fractal cloning to create the two sisters using one of Data's neurons. In fact, they're so human that neither seemed aware that they were synthetic life forms at all. When Bruce Maddox supposedly created Data's two "daughters," Soji and Dahj, he somehow made them far more human than Data ever was. ![]() ![]() These boundaries can also determine the value of the property based on the county and state taxes that are associated with it. Geometric boundaries have been created for governmental purposes, taxation purposes, and to determine the responsibility of property maintenance. What Geometric Boundaries Matter to Buyers Property lines and county road easementĮach of these boundaries is formed with straight lines and arcs that are irrespective of the cultural and physical features of the land.Some common examples of geometric boundaries include: They also can include or exclude natural features of the land such as rivers, ponds, and streams. The geometric border often tends to be straight, but it can also be formed with arcs. Geometric boundaries, also known as geometric borders, are used to form property lines. Geometric boundaries can cross rivers, mountains, hills, roads, and highways. What is a Geometric Boundary?Ī geometric boundary is a border that is formed regardless of the physical and cultural features that pass through it. Each of these borders can impact the price of real estate and determine whether it is desirable for buyers. ![]() Some properties may have easements that are important to pay attention to as well. ![]() The essential geometric borders that real estate agents need to pay specific attention to include state and county lines, property lines, and school district boundaries. There are also impacts that certain geometric boundaries can have on the value of the property and the responsibilities of the buyer. Buyers want to know exactly what they can do with their property and whether the geometric boundaries will prevent them from their goals and dreams for the property. Geometric boundaries are essential to know and understand when selling real estate. ![]() ![]() ![]() I recently (literally just over a week ago) got a new integrated/DAC (Hegel H190) in a secondary system (decided to simplify it and will get rid of an amp, preamp and DAC soon). The JRiver server (which has other shortcomings for me) will display a list of recent albums.Īs others have said, if your endpoint is Roon ready, you may want to investigate that. This is not an ideal solution, but it works. Then I have BubbleUpn sort by that, so recent albums can be found. After the initial pain of adding it, it's not too difficult to add to each new album. I have added a tag, "Import Week" to my music library, in the format "201635" say for a recording added in the 35th week of 2016. Oddly enough, the Simaudio MiND supported it with FLAC files, but not when transcoded to WAV.Ī list of recent albums also depends to a great degree on the server. It does work with the Aries, but I've owned renderers that did not support it. If yours supports it, it will work with BubbleUPnP. Seeking within a track depends on the renderer hardware. Make sure you have the server-side search setting turned on in BubbleUpnp. I also use JRiver running on a PC, and its DLNA server also supports searching. Searching depends on the server to a great degree - I don't know or use the Synology one, but I do use MinimServer on my Synology. Renderer is Auralic Aries.īubbleUpnp does support your #1 and #2. I am using MinimServer on a Synology DS414 and BubbleUpnp on a tablet. ![]() The sound quality is truly great and I love how few components there are. Quote from: fiveoclockfriday on, 12:40 pm Hello, my current setup is a Synology NAS (running Media Server + Bubble UPnP server which makes it openhome compatible), which is connected to a Cambridge Audio CXN, which goes out via xlr to a pair of DAC Maraschino monobolocks, to Kef LS50. ![]() Actually, I am looking forward to comparing the Airplay and USB inputs to see how Airplay stacks up.įire away with questions or it you want to see screenshots of the Roon software. But my plan is to purchase a CXN and use Airplay for casual listening, and use the hp Pavilion Mini/USB input for serious listening. I currently use Roon to stream via Airplay on the receivers and it sounds very good. I use the Roon iOS remote on my phone as the remote control. I have Marantz and Yamaha media receivers that are UPnP and Airplay compatible and have been using Roon for about six months after having tried all the UPnP apps you mentioned along with many others. If you decide you like the Roon interface but are worried about the sound quality of the Airplay interface, you can get a small computer like this hP Mini running Roon endpoint software connected to the CXN's USB input as an endpoint. The CXN will show up as a Roon endpoint since it is Airplay compatible. Sign up for a free Roon trial if your NAS supports it. Is there something I'm missing to make UPnP apps better or is it just a limitation of the format? Perhaps a different setup on the NAS? Is Audio Station better than Media server? I've heard good things about Lumin and Auralic apps, but neither one seemed to work for me - they needed actual products from those companies. this is a tough one I know, but the ability to show a list of 'recently added' albums?.fast forwarding/rewinding within a track?.searching - this is a big one, how do you not have search? am I just dense and missing it?.Specifically, most of the apps I tried do not support: What I can't help but feel is that none of them are offering some of the things I got with past setups (which involved a Raspberry Pi running Volumio or Moode (so Mpd software), or way back to a Squeezebox). I don't have a full list, but I've tried things like: The sound quality is truly great and I love how few components there are.īut, I am quite disappointed with all the control apps I've tried.

There are many generalist scholarships that anyone can apply for, and while the wide spectrum of applicants may make it more difficult to even be considered for those scholarships, applying to women in STEM-centric scholarships will not guarantee you proper funding. Also, don’t just focus on scholarships based on STEM and female applicants. Check out the companies or individuals that are funding these scholarships and see if they are funding any other scholarships that may apply for women in STEM. Don’t just stop at applying for one scholarship and waiting for their response. These scholarships often range from $500-$2,000 so applying for multiple scholarships at once is the best course of action. These are scholarships that may have certain requirements that different but they are designed to help women who wish to break into the field. ![]() Women are 30% less likely to be considered for a hiring process in an entry-level position than men are. These scholarships are focused on giving these women the opportunity to focus all their attention on these STEM curricula and finding a way to circumvent the gender bias that prevents women in STEM from attaining these entry-level positions. Many of which are geared towards asking these women about their goals while studying a STEM course and how they will apply that knowledge outside of college. These scholarships are geared towards very specific applicants and because of that these scholarships offer very different essay prompts from one another.
![]() ![]() You're really a ruler: You delegate in times of war and in times of peace! Similarly, whenever you want to attack an enemy, just place an order to attack one of their barracks, and your soldiers will march to fight. There is no need to tell every single one of your subjects what to do - that would be impossible, because there can be thousands of them! Instead, all you need to do is order them to build a building somewhere, and the builders will come. It is your job to lay out the roads as efficiently as possible.Īnother refreshing aspect of the game is the way you command your clan. This is done by carriers, and those carriers always walk along the roads. For example, a system of roads plays a central role in your economy: all the goods that are harvested and processed by the tribe must be transported from one building to the next. However, if you want to rule the world, you will have to train soldiers and fight. Some of them may be friendly and you may eventually trade with them. The economic network is complex and different in the three tribes (Barbarians, Imperials, and Atlanteans).Īs you are not alone in the world, you will meet other clans sooner or later. Every member of your clan will do his or her part to produce more resources - wood, food, iron, gold and more - to further this growth. In the course of the game, you will build an ever growing settlement. You start out with nothing but your headquarters, where all your resources are stored. In Widelands, you are the regent of a small clan. ![]() |
