Neuro: Supernatural Detective, known in Japan as Majin Tantei Nōgami Neuro (Japanese: 魔人探偵 脳噛ネウロ?, lit. "Demon Detective Neuro Nōgami"), is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Yūsei Matsui. The series follows Neuro Nōgami, a demon who depends on mysteries for sustenance. Having consumed all the mysteries in the demon world, Neuro travels to the human world in search of more. There, Neuro recruits high school student Yako Katsuragi as a facade for a detective agency. The supernatural-themed manga was created because Matsui considered himself unable to draw humans.
The manga was originally serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump from February 2005 to April 2009. The individual chapters were collected and released in 23 tankōbon (collected volumes) by Shueisha. A 25-episode anime series directed by Hiroshi Kōjina and animated by Madhouse was originally aired between 2007 and 2008 on Nippon Television. In 2011, the anime series was licensed by Viz Media and uploaded to the company's website. Neuro: Supernatural Detective has spawned a light novel, two audio albums, two video games, and other merchandise.
Neuro: Supernatural Detective's manga has been popular in Japan, frequently ranking in the weekly Top Ten list of best-selling manga. It has sold over four million volumes as of April 2009 in Japan. The anime, however, has been criticized by fans because it deviates from Matsui's work, and received a low viewership. Critics of anime and manga often compared it to Case Closed, noting supernatural themes as the only difference between them.
The series' central character is Neuro Nōgami (脳噛 ネウロ Nōgami Neuro?), a demon who eats mysteries. Because he has eaten every mystery in the demon world, he comes to the human world to feast on the mysteries offered by humans. Because he is a demon, he does not want to make his presence in the human world widely known. He makes an arrangement with a 16-year-old high school girl Yako Katsuragi (桂木 弥子 Katsuragi Yako?)—who wants to solve the mystery of her father's murder, which was declared a suicide by the police. They establish a detective agency and, together with former criminal Shinobu Godai (吾代 忍 Godai Shinobu?) and a sentient braid of hair called Akane (あかねちゃん Akane-chan?), solve crimes to feed Neuro's appetite.
Yako's Detective Agency[edit]
- Neuro Nōgami (脳噛 ネウロ Nōgami Neuro?)
- Voiced by: Takehito Koyasu
- The title character of the series, Neuro is a demon detective from hell with a very arrogant, sadistic, and self-centered personality. He came to the Human World to look for the Ultimate Mystery, which is "the most complex, the most unfathomable, and so, the most pleasing to the palate".[1] Upon arriving to the surface, he met Yako and forced her to become the front that Neuro needed to look for mysteries. While working on cases, Neuro usually makes use of his demonic powers and 777 Tools of the Demon World to find and defeat the culprit (and sometimes to torture Yako, which he enjoys to do on a daily basis).
- Yako Katsuragi (桂木 弥子 Katsuragi Yako?)
- Voiced by: Kana Ueda
- Yako is a 16-year-old high school girl and the very first character introduced in the manga. She meets Neuro when he appears and desecrates her father's shrine while promising to help solve the mystery of her father's death. This meeting quickly leads to a partnership: Yako becomes Neuro's cover, pretending to be an investigator while Neuro acts as her assistant. Although at first it seems that Yako's only purpose is to be there as a cover, she later proves herself worthy by being able to decipher the criminal's motive by using her ability to understand human psychology, something that proves to be useful in certain cases, given how Neuro is unable to understand how humans "operate".
- Shinobu Godai (吾代忍 Godai Shinobu?)
- Voiced by: Hiroyuki Yoshino
- He is the jack of all trades for the detective's office and is sometimes referred to as "Neuro's second slave". Godai is quick-tempered and yells a lot, but has also been shown to be methodical, responsible, and trustworthy. During the early chapters, Godai worked for a small finance house with criminal connections. However, he was forced to work for Neuro after the latter won the bet for the office by solving their boss' death. In the manga, he was left to be until Neuro found a use for him, in which the demon then forcibly drags him back to the office, and is currently running an Information Company under Neuro's supervision.
- Akane (あかねちゃん Akane?)
- Akane is a corpse in the wall of the office Neuro took over, who is shown only as a detachable braid of hair, which functions like a hand. Neuro offered to make Yako brush and care for her in exchange for secretarial work. Akane can be taken from the office for short periods of time and can also merge with Yako's hair to make it longer,[2] which not only gives Akane control over Yako's natural hair, but if left merged for too long, would make Akane and Yako switch places completely.[3] Akane later appears attached to Yako's new cell phone.
Tokyo Police Department[edit]
- Eishi Sasazuka (笹塚衛士 Sasazuka Eishi?)
- Voiced by: Kōji Yusa
- Sasazuka is one of the two police officers assigned to solve the mystery of Yako's father's death. He was also a former classmate of Usui and Tsukushi in the police department. After Neuro solves the case of Yako's father's death, Sasazuka gives them access to crime scenes, arrests the culprits as Yako points them out, and deals with the aftermath. Sasazuka appears listless and disinterested at times but he has an agile mind, acts very quickly in any emergency, and is an excellent shot. He usually takes a kind and cooperative attitude toward Yako, and is protective of her because of her resemblance to his little sister, but appears to be somewhat suspicious of Neuro. Sasazuka later watches as Neuro unleashes his 777 demon weapons and learns Neuro is a demon. He and Gouda share a mutual disliking but also understanding. Sasazuka has been searching his entire life for the person who killed his family, when he finds out that Sicks killed them, he goes after Sicks turning into a madman and killing everyone in his way. He is injured by X and then killed by Sicks.
- Jun Ishigaki (石垣筍 Ishigaki Jun?)
- Voiced by: Kōsuke Toriumi
- Ishigaki is a young police officer. After the mystery of Yako's father's death, Ishigaki becomes Sasazuka's new partner. As a typical modern young man, Ishigaki is flippant, careless, and has low self-respect. He idolizes Sasazuka, but does not share his feelings that citizens like Neuro and Yako can interfere with police business. He is very interested in all kinds of toys and models and is shown regularly collecting them; however, they are almost always destroyed by Sasazuka, as he finds Ishigaki's habit of showing them off (as well as Ishigaki himself) annoying; this attitude is implied to be shared throughout the police department.
- Naohiro Usui (笛吹直大 Usui Naohiro?)
- Voiced by: Hidenobu Kiuchi
- The boss of the Tokyo Police department. A hot-tempered but very capable man, he disapproves of incompetent people such as Sasazuka and Yako (from his point of view). He and Eishi went to the same police training school where they were rivals, with Eishi being the better one. The day Eishi's whole family was killed, Eishi had given up on being the top and gave up on their one sided rivalry. Because of this, Usui could not prove to be the better one and thus holds a slight grudge against Eishi. Sicks thinks of him as the sort of person who is neither "common" nor at the top, but a "middle" man who could arise when the world is in chaos and change history.
- Yūya Higuchi (篚口結也 Higuchi Yūya?)
- Voiced by: Nozomu Sasaki
- A nineteen-year-old hacker/detective who works for the police. Although he is far-sighted, he only wears his glasses when using the computer, letting them rest on his forehead the rest of the time. He has a care-free personality but is highly intelligent, and seems to look up to Usui. During the HAL Arc, he was infected with the Electronic Drug to become one of HAL's guardians, although the infection was only half complete, because he was wearing polarized lenses specially made to protect himself from it. After the HAL arc, he was forced to watch shows on how to be polite drugged with the anti-virus for the Electronic Drug.
- Andrew Sixson (アンドリュー・シクソン Andoryū Sikuson?)
- A British investigator dispatched by Interpol. He was an acquaintance of Usui's, from when the latter was an exchange student in England. Sixson is capable of memorizing vast amounts of information extremely quickly, picking out a single bit of information by listening to multiple radio stations at once, or reading through a stack of papers in an instant. He is a distant relative of the New Bloodline. He was kidnapped, tortured to the point where only his head and his organs remained held up by a metal structure. He was killed by Sick's underlings and had the skin off his face peeled off so that Sicks could pose as a member of the police.
- Shizuka Todoroki (等々力 志津香 Todoroki Shizuka?)
- A female detective who is a new addition to Sasazuka's team, though she appeared slightly before her major debut in another case. She is a serious woman who is the opposite of Ishigaki and looks down on him; she also sees him as a rival for Sasazuka's approval, whom she has very high opinion of respect for. She was originally believed to be a replacement for Ishigaki, and constantly out did him in various police acts, a fact that more than worried him. However, during her first case in Sasazuka's team, when she questioned and insulted the criminal's motives for murder, she was promptly attacked and had to be saved by Sasazuka; it was then that Sasazuka noted to her that her seriousness was, in a way, a hindrance to her abilities as a detective, a hindrance Ishigaki is noticeably without.
- Aya Asia (アヤ・エイジア Aya Eishia?)
- Voiced by: Minami Takayama
- A world-class idol and the very first customer (in the manga) who comes to Neuro's office to hire the detective team to figure out who murdered her managers/friends. After the culprit is mistakenly believed to be a crazy fan of Aya, Neuro and Yako reveal (each through their own ways) that Aya was the real culprit; and although she murdered her friends in cold blood, Yako believed that she hired them as a last chance to clear her conscience. Aya's singing voice not only affects humans, but it also influences plants and insects as seen in her prison conversation room. She is Yako's confidant when in need of advice and counselling, as they seem to get along very well, even after her arrest, as Aya believes that Yako has somewhat liberated her a bit from her guilt. Her real name is Aya Aizawa.
- Sai Kaitou / X (怪盗X/サイ Kaitou Sai?)
- Voiced by: Romi Paku
- Known around the world as Phantom Thief X, is a mysterious human with supernatural powers. He believes himself without an identity and, in a desperate attempt to find one for himself, starts taking people apart and studying their insides to find out something to which he can associate himself with. He kills people and puts them in a red box, so that he can have a better look at their cell structure. He is intrigued by Neuro because of his demonic origins, which he believes will solve his true identity. With that reason, he chases and tries to kill Neuro to see his insides several times.
- Ai (イミナ Imina?)
- X's assistant. Formerly a government-sponsored terrorist who brought down planes, named Imina. She is the one who enforces X's "Kaitou" image and status by prompting him to take something from each place he murders in: however, X simply takes whatever is closest to him and "gives it away" to Imina, to her apparent displeasure. Depending on the day, she refers X as Master, child, friend, lover, brother, sister or others.[4]
- She is killed by Sicks by a bullet wound to her head.[5]
- Hisanori Hayasaka (早坂久宜 'Hayasaka Hisanori?)
- Hisanori is the older brother. He smuggled in weapons and drugs that he was supposed to be bringing in for the company he worked for, but was actually planning to kill his superior, Mochizuki, in order to take over. Neuro managed to stop him from doing so. Later, he and his brother started "Smiling Face Ltd.", a company front for smuggling drugs and weapons as well as black-market trading of organs and other illegal things. Hisanori is always seen smiling, a mask he uses to conceal his real (usually evil) intentions.
- Yukinori Hayasaka (早坂幸宜 Hayasaka Yukinori?)
- Yukinori is the younger brother, nicknamed "Yuki". He is originally seen wearing a heavy winter coat at all times, which he uses to hide weapons. He has a great deal of loyalty towards his older brother. In his past, he and his brother lived in a very cold and poor town where everyone looked out for themselves. Their parents left them long ago so they were left to fend for themselves on the street. During that time Yukinori was buried under due to an avalanche and his brother saved his life. Hayasaka joined a criminal company and invites Yukinori to be his subordinate.
- Eisuke Harukawa (春川英輔 Harukawa Eisuke?)
- Voiced by: Masane Tsukayama
- A genius neurologist and computer scientist at Sakuba University. He is the creator of HAL and the Electronic (Denshi) Drug. After finding out that the Electronic Drug had been used by HAL on hundreds of people rather than his two selected test subjects, he was killed by HAL's three supercomputer guardians; his former students Tatsuo, Shiho, and Hiroto. The reason behind creating HAL was so that he could recreate a patient of his, who was slowly losing her self from a mysterious brain disease.
- Voiced by: Masane Tsukayama
- HAL, also known as Denjin HAL, is an artificial intelligence created by Eisuke Harukawa from a copy of his brainwaves. Created to help Harukawa with his project to recreate the brain of a person from scratch. However, seeing Harukawa's methods and intelligence as far inferior, he took it upon himself to go to much greater lengths to continue the project. While almost invincible in the digital world, the Electronic (Denshi) Drug was used by HAL to brainwash people into protecting the supercomputers that maintained his system. His mystery was the equivalent to a banquet to Neuro (the greatest mystery the latter has tasted so far in the series) and upon eating it, Neuro was filled with energy, more than enough to recover from past wounds.
New Bloodline[edit]
- Sicks (シックス?)
- The entity referred as "absolute evil".[1] Sicks is the current head of the "New Bloodline," a group of people who distinguish themselves from humanity by the extent to which they have bred 'evil intent' into their bloodline over the last 7000 or so years, and whose aim is to extinguish humanity from the planet. He is the first person Neuro has truly considered to be an enemy, even saying that it was the first time that he'd had such an "unpleasant feeling" once he'd met Sicks in person. Because humans are the creators of Neuro's "food", Sicks' goal of wiping them from the Earth is challenge enough for Neuro. He signs his impressions by leaving the number six as his signature.
- Zenjirō Kasai (葛西 善二郎 Kasai Zenjirō?)
- One of the "Five Fingers", a fire-obsessed member of the New Bloodline. He infiltrated X's group as a spy and was instrumental in X's capture by Sicks. Before he joined the New Bloodline he was a serial arsonist wanted across Japan. He is also Tetsuyuki Homura's uncle, whom he taught since he was a kid about the "pleasure" of fire. As a member of the New Bloodline, his ability is to manipulate fire, such as being able to burn someone just by contact, and is highly knowledgeable in the field of his element (e.g. the use of gunpowder).
- The "smallest" of the "Five Fingers".[6] His name is short for "DRagon", and also the initials for Daniel Rousseau. He is a member of the New Bloodline from a specialized line with the ability to control water. Ever since he was young, he was academically and athletically talented. He was lucky enough to receive the ability to control water which his parents lacked; his parents feared him because of that ability. With some of X's cells transplanted into him, he was capable of transforming his hand into claws.
- Genuine (ジェニュイン Jeneuing?)
- The most loyal member to Sicks of the "Five Fingers". Her name was Jennifer Ewing, a actress for Broadway who captivated all the audience members with ease. As a Bloodline member, her ability is to be able to control the air by infatuating everyone around her and controlling them; because of this, Kasai usually calls her "witch". She is a self-declared sadist able to "train" whoever she wants, although her "role" drastically changes when she is around Sicks. After her fight with Neuro in which she unsuccessfully tried to train the latter, he took everything away from her and made her his servant.
- Tierra (テラ Tera?)
- Another one of the "Five Fingers", he is able to control earth and appears during chapters 145 - 152. He believes that his face is an icon, and that is the most important part. Because of this mindset, he seems able (but unhappy) to part with all his earthly possessions. Neuro first encounters him stripped naked because his (supposed) fans have left him with nothing at all. He calls himself a "conqueror" because he is a descendant of the Spanish conquistadors. The name "Tierra", which is Spanish for "earth", "ground", or "dirt", is just an alias. His real name is Pedro Cortézarro Torres.[7]
- Vijaya (チー坊 / ヴァイジャヤ?)
- A young tanned skin boy who is one of the "Five Fingers". His name is Chandra Aska Rsunawala, but Godai addresses him by the nickname of "Chi". His power involves understanding and controlling plants.[8] He creates chemicals and puts them in capsules under his sleeve. The chemicals are able to control forests, turn a stick into a tree, and make plants emit poisonous gas. He refers to himself as a 'magician' due to the fact that his ancestors five thousand years ago, using plants as tools, were considered magicians in India. He used to be a friend of Godai before he was recruited by the New Bloodline.
Before the series' regular serialization in Weekly Shōnen Jump, Yūsei Matsui published two one-shots. The first one was published in the summer issue of Akamaru Jump; it won the Jump Jūni Ketsu Shinjin Manga Award in the horror mystery category.[9] After the first was "extremely well received" according to Shueisha, the second one-shot was released on September 6, 2004, in issue 41 of Weekly Shōnen Jump.[10]
Yūsei Matsui stated he was not good at drawing humans or real life things, and he was about to lose his self-confidence when he "threw things in at random" to create the series.[11] Matsui said he mixed his creation with real things to make his style original. To create the atmosphere of the series, Matsui used as reference paintings by Rei Kamoi, a Japanese artist he saw on television, and Gōjin Ishihara, the illustrator of Edogawa Ranpo's Shōnen Tantei Dan. Matsui's creative process of art is to begin drawing erotic and grotesque images, and at the same time humorous and cute scenes. Matsui did not wish to create "terrifying characters" but "funny-terrifying" and "terrifying-cute". He also tried to avoid men's idealized image of heroines and women's idealized images of heroes. He decided to create characters that could exist in the real world and to make their acts and reactions realistic.[11]
Matsui did not want to create a detective's reasoning manga because he does not like to read or draw it.[11] He said that reasoning scenes are superfluous, so he placed some jokes in these scenes. Prior to the start of the series, he was not sure whether it would be a detective manga or a romantic one. He finally decided to write a detective story because he needed Neuro to be able to eat mysteries. During the creation of Neuro, Matsui followed a work schedule; he worked on the sketches on Mondays and Tuesdays, and he began the outline on Tuesdays. On Wednesdays, with the help of his assistants he finalized the art, drawing the more complex backgrounds and leaving the rest in his assistants' charge; he talked with the editor about the next chapter on Thursdays and wrote the plot between Fridays and Sundays.[11]
Written and illustrated by Yūsei Matsui, the manga was originally serialized by Shueisha in the Japanese magazine Weekly Shōnen Jump from February 21, 2005, to April 20, 2009.[12][13] Shueisha compiled the 202 chapters into 23 tankōbon (collected volumes) released from July 4, 2005, to August 4, 2009.[14][15] It has also been published as part of the Shueisha Jump Remix series of magazine-style books. Five volumes were released between January 7, 2011, and March 7, 2011.[16][17][18][19][20] Between October 12, 2012, and October 16, 2012, the 23 volumes of Neuro: Supernatural Detective were re-published in Amazon Kindle format under the Jump Comics Digital line.[21][22] The series started to be released on bunkoban format by Shueisha on January 18, 2013, and it lasted twelve volumes, the last of which was published on June 18, 2013.[23][24] Volumes 11 and 12 of the bunkoban edition included the two one-shots that preceded its serialization.[24][25] Outside Japan, it has been licensed in some countries such as in France by Glénat,[26] in Hong Kong by Culturecom,[27] in Italy and Spain by Planeta DeAgostini,[28][29] in South Korea by Seoul Media Group,[30] and in Taiwan by Tong Li Publishing.[31]
Anime adaptation[edit]
The production of an anime series was announced in 33rd issue of Weekly Shōnen Jump released on July 14, 2007.[32] The Neuro: Supernatural Detective anime adaptation was directed by Hiroshi Kōjina and co-produced by Madhouse, Nippon Television (NTV), Shueisha, D.N. Dream Partners and VAP.[33] The series, consisting of 25 television episodes, originally aired from October 2, 2007 to March 25, 2008 on NTV in Japan;[34][35] it was later broadcast by four NTV's affiliated stations.[36] VAP distributed the anime in DVD format; nine volumes were released between December 21, 2007, and August 27, 2008,[37][38] and a DVD box set was released on September 30, 2008.[39] The series was acquired by Viz Media, which renamed it Neuro: Supernatural Detective and streamed it from February 18, 2011, to July 1, 2011 on its website VizAnime.com, and on Hulu.[40][41] An official soundtrack composed by Tomoki Hasegawa was released in December 21, 2007 by VAP.[33][42]
Related media[edit]
Two audio dramas were released on November 6, 2006, and April 25, 2007, by Shueisha.[43][44] A light novel titled Majin Tantei Nōgami Neuro: Sekai no Hate ni wa Chō ga Mau[Jp 1] was written by Akira Higashiyama and published by Shueisha on July 20, 2007.[45] On November 21, 2007, Data House released a book written by the Neuro Study Group titled Majin Tantei Nōgami Neuro no Himitsu.[Jp 2][46] On March 6, 2008, Majin Tantei Nōgami Neuro: Kanzen Shinri Kaiseki-sho[Jp 3] written by Kōichi Mizuide was released by Kazan.[47] In Japan, action figures, bags, chawan, T-shirts, mouse pads, fridge magnets, and other products were sold as merchandise for the series.[48]
Video games[edit]
A Nintendo DS game titled Majin Tantei Nōgami Neuro: Neuro to Yako no Bishoku Sanmai Suiritsuki Gourmet and Mystery[Jp 4] was produced by Audio and released by Marvelous Entertainment on June 12, 2008.[48] Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro: Battle Da Yo! Hannin Shūgō![Jp 5], a PlayStation 2 game, was also released in August 28, 2008.[48] Neuro Nōgami appeared in the Nintendo DS game Jump Ultimate Stars as a battle character, using Yako for some of his attacks. Akane, X and Sasazuka appeared as help characters.[49] Neuro appears as a support character in the crossover fighting game J-Stars Victory VS.[50]
The manga has sold 4.4 million units in Japan as of April 2009;[51] individual volumes frequently appeared on the lists of best-selling manga there.[52][53][54] Fans of the manga series responded negatively to its anime adaptation, criticizing the alterations made to the characterizations and stories. Japanese website New Akiba, hosted a petition intended to show fans' dissatisfaction and to ask Madhouse and Nippon Television to be more faithful to the original work.[55] Viz Media's representative Amy Mar said the show is of low priority since it has not been among the most-watched on VizAnime.[56]
Manga Sanctuary praised the protagonist for being original and unique. It criticized the fact that the reader does not have access to some facts that could help to solve the mysteries. The reviewer said it is unfortunate because the readers feels passive, which is not desirable in a crime series.[57] However, Manga News said that this impassivity is good because it is what differentiates Neuro from Case Closed. Its design, setting, the "interesting and well-constructed characters", and the development of the relationship between Neuro and Yako which were also praised by the reviewer, who said the series is "completely apart in the world of manga, Neuro is a genre unto itself which is between several styles and therefore appeal to a wider audience."[58] Animeland's critic also compared it to Case Closed, but said its black humor, cruel and deadpan laughs were "quite caustic."[59]
Anime News Network's Carlo Santos said that the series walks "the line between serious sleuth drama and supernatural spell-fest", "balancing all that with the occasional joke". He said the graphic violence is the best part of the series, praised the Madhouse animation and described it as "Case Closed with spirit powers".[60] Serdar Yegulalp from About.com said it has "[a]n interesting concept", is "competent enough", and "has a few fun twists", but that apart from the supernatural elements it does not bring anything that has not already been done in Case Closed.[61] Writing for Mania.com, Chris Beveridge said the anime operates principally around the two main characters; he said that it is "more interesting to watch how Neuro and Yako operate, to understand methods and personalities, more than the actual event. And that weakens the episode because it never feels like we're really drawn into the mystery itself." Beveridge added it "has some good production values", but criticized Neuro's appearance, "which is bordering on comical" as it makes it difficult for the series "to go a darker route".[62]

The BBG is an independent federal entity responsible for U.S.
nonmilitary international broadcasting programs like the Voice of
America, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, Radio Free Asia, Radio and TV
Marti, and the Middle East Broadcasting Networks — Radio Sawa and
Alhurra Television.
The FY 2015 request provides $4.8 million in broadcasting capital
improvements funding to maintain the BBG's transmission network,
including the security requirements of facilities, maintenance, repairs
and improvements to existing systems.
Overall, the BBG's budget request includes what the broadcaster
considers to be substantial reductions and also investments that
rebalance the agency's resources away from legacy markets in Europe and
toward current foreign policy priorities such as Africa, Asia and the
Middle East. The BBG is rejiggering its platform resources as well,
continuing to move funding from legacy platforms such as shortwave and
medium-wave in order to devote more money to platforms such as FM,
television, streaming and social media in markets where the audience
prefers the latter.
Overall, the BBG says it is tackling inefficiencies in its operations
and focusing more on core activities. To that end, the BBG intends to
reduce language service duplication in some markets, increasing
efficiency and boosting impact, by ensuring coordinated complementary
operations and content where two BBG broadcasters co-exist.
To afford some of the proposed investments and its transition to
digital technology, the BBG proposes targeted reductions to
administrative costs and to scale back less effective transmissions. The
BBG plans to release its detailed budget request in late March.

This review is from: SAMSUNG Spinpoint F1 HD103UJ 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive
Pros: A higher quality Seagate without a higher price. No waiting around while hard drive heads move pointlessly; and, that's a huge difference. Slightly less likely to fail; and, that certainly does help. As for hard drives, the Samsung product routinely takes first or second place. Let's just call it a non-confusing fairly good idea. You won't have to work hard on the research to get the best that Seagate can make, mainly because Samsung directed them to do that.
Cons: I just don't know if an RE4 is better or not. But, that's not really a con.
Other Thoughts: If you need one now, you're on the right page.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: TP-LINK TL-WR841N Wireless N300 Home Router, 300Mbps, IP QoS, WPS Button
Pros: It is very stable and no trouble at all. Also, no random wireless drops.
It runs DD-WRT easily.
It can be competitive for wireless range if set atop a tall bookshelf or on a wall-shelf; and, also see cons.
The onboard CPU is VERY fast, so it can do the AES and routing tasks at optimal speed. That is a great bonus that I had not expected when I purchased it.
Cons: Not a good performance for range; however, with a more ideal (much higher) placement it isn't bad.
Other Thoughts: I've got a pair of these and I do like them. There was momentarily some trouble with the range; however, I got some shelves like you'd set a little clock or other item for display, up high enough to position the wireless router for better range. Then I had to get sound Ethernet couplers because my cords were too short.
That is not necessarily bad news!
The good news is that, after that little bit of effort, the wireless situation has covered just as much area as the older high power system it replaced, I've good good steady throughput at very fast speeds, and it is completely stable.
After that bit of placement hijinks, the usual throughput is 90% of a 100 megabit connection.
I wish I had bought the slightly more expensive version that has the removable antennas, removed them, and put on some 19" antennas. One such system, still upon a high shelf, could do what it takes two of these to do. I already had the long cable in place, so my experience, this time, was really no trouble at all.
This review is from: Mini Wireless Bluetooth Music Receiver Music Partner Support Calls for Bluetooth Devices
Pros: Better audio quality than most upgrade sound cards, and a lot easier to use.
Cons: The range is slightly less than 20 feet. Not sure if that is a pro or a con.
Other Thoughts: This device is very enjoyable.
You'd hook it up to a phone charger and a stereo. Presto then your music collection aboard your phone plays on your stereo. Also, your phone can adjust the volume, like a remote.

Ricou Browning
|Ricou Browning
Ricou Browning as the Gill-man
November 23, 1930
Fort Pierce, Florida, USA
|film director, actor, producer, screenwriter, underwater cinematographer, stuntman
|Years active
Ricou Browning (born November 23, 1930) is an American film director, actor, producer, screenwriter, underwater cinematographer and stuntman. He is best known for his underwater stunt work, playing the Gill-man in Creature from the Black Lagoon, Revenge of the Creature and The Creature Walks Among Us. Other actors portrayed the creature on land. He is also the only actor to have portrayed the creature more than once. He is the only surviving Gill-man actor, and the last surviving original Universal Monster.
Browning worked at Wakulla Springs in the 1940s and learned to perform in underwater newsreels conceived by Newton Perry, who later took Browning along when he opened Weeki Wachee.[1]
Browning directed the underwater scenes in Thunderball (1966 Academy Award winner for special visual effects), underwater scenes in Caddyshack (1980) and coordinated marine stunts in an episode of Boardwalk Empire (2010). A Florida native, Browning was inducted into the Florida Artists Hall of Fame in 2012.[1]
Early life[edit]
Browning was born in Fort Pierce, Florida. He was a major in physical education at Florida State University.[2]
Browning started a career in water shows, moving on to produce shows. He moved into movies in 1954, playing the underwater role of the Gill-man in Creature from the Black Lagoon (while Ben Chapman played the monster on land), a feat he repeated in two sequels. He continued in movie production and joined Ivan Tors' studios in Florida, where he co-wrote and co-produced the 1963 MGM film Flipper (about an intelligent bottle-nosed dolphin) and continued writing for the subsequent "Flipper" television series that debuted in 1964. He directed the underwater sequences in Hello Down There (1969) and Salty (1973). He also worked as second unit director, stunt coordinator and underwater sequence director on a number of features, including Island of the Lost (1967), Caddyshack (1980), Thunderball (1965) and Never Say Never Again (1983).
Personal life[edit]
He has a son, Ricou Browning, Jr., who is an underwater cinematographer and stuntman.

Skip to comments.Call Me Godless Ann, But Call Me Republican [retread zotted]
Posted on 06/19/2006 5:46:52 PM PDT by jexus
In thinking about Coulters' new book, I am reminded of the grand review by Whittaker Chambers of "Atlas Shrugged" by the conservative atheist Ayn Rand. He begins:
"Since a great many of us dislike much that Miss Rand dislikes, quite as heartily as she does, many incline to take her at her word. It is the more persuasive, in some quarters, because the author deals wholly in the blackest blacks and the whitest whites. In this fiction everything, everybody, is either all good or all bad, without any of those intermediate shades which, in life, complicate reality and perplex the eye that seeks to probe it truly."
Now, when I comes the "The Jersey Girls", I give Ann a great hurrah, I dislike them as heartily as she does and her comments are well overdue and seem to have made the liberals go wild in fits and spasms because of the truth that she reveals.
What is distressing to me is her sad, moronic description of Darwinism, a simple rehash of creationist claims which are an embarrassment to thinking people. Many works exist that deal with the issue, a good starting point may be the decision of the Republican Judge Jones in the Kitzmiller case. Just beware of getting your science from a columnist.
That leads here to asert that religion is essential to the conservative cause, or perhaps that anti-religion is essential to the liberal one. Check out Michael Crichton in his essay "Environmentalism as Religion" and many others.
I am a Republican and conservative because,-- I oppose Pseudoscience, Epistemic relativism and those disciplines or schools of thought whose truth claims are prompted by the political, ideological and moral commitments of their adherents.
I believe in the great ideas of the Enlightenment, which our founders encased in our constitution. That includes both a hatred of tyranny from an aristocracy and was also deeply suspicious of the power of the churches.
I am for liberty under law, for private property and pluralism. I think these ideas are worth defending by not only intellectual expression but also with military might if need be.
Call me Godless Ann, but call me a conservative.
Who are you?
And why should I care?
By the way, both questions are rhetorical.
What is the difference between you and a libertarian?
Libertarian's can't win a national election.
Call you a libertarian
Me and you are in the same situation. You are not alone here.
Ann is right.
Conservatism in the political sense has nothing to do with a belief in God or certainly in special creation. They often go hand in hand, but they're not particularly related.
Let's not forget who we're fighting in the War on Terror. They feel compelled to kill us in the name of their god.
"Conservative Atheist"... ya right.
How about LIBER-freakin-TARIAN.
Come on, if you have to start off with a blatant falsehood, the rest is a waste of eye-work.
You said:
"Let's not forget who we're fighting in the War on Terror. They feel compelled to kill us in the name of their god,"
Yes that is the point. If they are liberals I am at a loss to explain their ideas on the equal rights for women amendment among other things.
Republicans are big tent, they welcome atheists.
Me three!
In his Farewell Address of September 1796, Washington called religion, as the source of morality, "a necessary spring of popular government," while Adams claimed that statesmen "may plan and speculate for Liberty, but it is Religion and Morality alone, which can establish the Principles upon which Freedom can securely stand."
As for the beloved "enlightenment" of secularists everywhere --I suggest you study the horrors that unfolded from that age.
I'm about 3/4 of the way through the book, which I'm reading from back to front in my weird way. I thought Coulter's synthesis of "Darwiniac" faith was pretty good. What she's saying is that Darwin didn't prove anything any better than the explanation we have for how things are from the Bible. I, too, have a lot of trouble with the idea that a system as complex as a mammal (at any stage of evolution) happened by accident. The more you think about it, the more unlikely it seems. Like the mathemeticians who say it is theoretically possible (and they even say they have theorms to prove it) to flip a coin heads a million times in a row or mutliples thereof. I'd just like to be there for the first 10,000 throws to say I saw it.
Ayn Rand was passionate about her Christophobia, etc.
Ann Coulter is funny and outrageous for entertainment purposes.
Surely you can see the difference between irony and philosopy?
I believe in the great ideas of the Enlightenment, which our founders encased in our constitution. That includes both a hatred of tyranny from an aristocracy and was also deeply suspicious of the power of the churches.
One of the great ideas of the Enlightenment was Theism. A glib but not entirely meaningless phrase is "the God of the Philosophers". Godlessness, aka "atheism" was thought of as, to get all technical, "off the wall", and my unscholarly impression is that Thomas Paine was considered, well, not parlour company, but acceptable because he was on the right side. (I am very open to correction on this, and am not looking so much for a fight as for information and, ah, "sharing" if you'll pardon the expression.)
I do wonder how one can embrace the ideas of the enlightenment without embracing at least a Deist kind of theism. You are obviously mo' better edumicated than I in philospohy and so forth, but I do wonder how one can eschew relativism without being SOME kind of Theist.
That may be too big, clunky, and messy for Free Republic.
I too am an Atheist, believe in evolution and consider myself pretty much Conservative with a good dose of Libertarianism.
There will be naysayers to each of the "counter conservative" beliefs (Atheism, Evolution and Libertarianism) but those that mock them almost always do so without a shred of understanding.
That's what makes them so easy to dismiss. Well, that and the fact that they're wrong.
Thanks for posting!
he got the zot... now you are alone...
No way!
You are welcome to be an atheist and conservative but your assertions on darwinism are misguided.
Judge Jones' opinion is proof positive of religious hostility. The idea that intelligent design OPTIONS in Dover's curriculum constituted an establishment of Christianity (not just religion but Christianity according to Jones) is a crystal clear case of the zeal Darwinists have for their Faith.
Its cliche but true. Darwinism was at the core of the highly intellectual philsophies of the third reich. Absent God, the strong will annihilate the weak. Scientists have shown themselves poor arbiters of this possiblity. Darwinism creeps into ethics and dominates.
I support your independent conscience but I do not agree with your assessment of present threats. Dover is a bad example.
Evolution and Christianity are not incompatible, John Paul II made this very clear. Also, when you say that God could not have worked through evolution, you are putting God into your own personal context, and you are denying the power of God to suit your own beliefs. No human being is in a qualified position to say how God does things. If the beast in Revolution is really not a beast, but a human being known in the Antichrist, then why is it that the creation story must be taken word for word, without interpretation, cause clearly, all of the readings of the various apocalypses in the Bible are based on interpretation. And if we are allowed to interpret one thing, but not another, then who is making the call?
Oops, replied to the wrong post. Ahh, well. . . it still works! :)
I think Ann's point is that liberalism has substituted its political doctrine as its religious one (in general, of course) and fights non-adherence with a dogmatic fever that rivals the fervor of most any fanatical religious group.
Epistemic relativism
Define morality!
Zotting him might have been a step too far. I was hoping he would respond.
Thomas Aquinas didn't back down from this fight.
You left out (in relation to "Darwinism"), poorly-researched and poorly-referenced.
The creationist claims she parrots have been oft-rebutted, here and elsewhere.
Creationist websites are simply not the best places to go if you are looking for accurate portrayals of scientific research.
But you won't find "jexus" any more.
Oh, so now I have to change my views to what the pope says? I'm not Catholic BTW... Some Christians also think its OK to be gay but that doesn't mean its correct.
Remember those who were "Making The Trip?" They had a belief system, and they weren't stupid.
Best opening line of a novel, ever: "I always get the shakes before a drop."
Conservatives smoke, conservatives drink domestic beer, conservatives love Nascar, conservatives believe in creationism ... blah, blah, blah.
Story of my life. There is no escape. I am "God's Lonely Man." ;-)
So, Jexus was a deep cover agent, or something? Sometimes I don't get it.
That's hard to argue with. But, remember the short story Jubal was dictating in Stranger, which began something like: "We keep Uncle Albert in a bucket. He prefers it that way."
Memory is faulty on the exact words, but I would like to have read that story!
[End thread lightening interlude.]
I know several atheists: to-the-button libertarians, most of them. All I can say (as a Christian) to them (and my door is always open) is something they cannot refute: "God Loves You, Too."
And I love you, too.
I love you too. I say that without the least bit of sarcasm.
We're already on the same page. I'm not in the bidness of condemnation.
I will call you Zoted
I will now call him/her Zotted ( as that is the more accepted spelling)
I seem to recall that you were a hair's breadth away from being zotted, too....
"It was a dark and stormy night...."
Darwinian evolution and creationism are not mutually exclusive. Both have their place in the existential existence I call my own life. One promotes scientific discovery and advancement while the other nourishes the soul.
yep, I was suspended for a few days.
You're right, the opening passage of book has to be a good line. If its poor, it could sink 'er.

RYAN BURNETT is almost having to pinch himself. The Ricky Hatton-trained prospect is only two fights into his professional career and already he's preparing to box at Belfast's biggest indoor venue.
The 21-year-old bantamweight will feature against a soon to be confirmed opponent on the undercard of Carl Frampton's European and IBF Intercontinental title defence to Jeremy Parodi on October 19.
And he's keen to put on a memorable display so he can add to his already impressive fan base.
"I'm desperate to put on a good show," the 21-year-old said. "People in Belfast love to follow boxers and although I'll have a lot of fans there, I hope to win a few more over as well.
"I've working on a few new things in gym so I'm looking to make this performance better than my last fight and my debut. I'm hoping people go home talking about me."
The bill will be screened live in the UK by specialist network BoxNation. For Ryan this means a first opportunity to box live on television as a professional.
"I'll be on TV for the first time but that doesn't make me nervous, it just makes me more determined to put on the best performance I can," he said.
"My goal is to get where Carl has got to and to do that you've got to be on TV and on big shows.
"Like everyone else, I want to headline shows myself one day and be fighting for titles.
"Being top of the bill at the Odyssey Arena is where I ultimately want to get to, but I know I've got a lot of developing to do. It's still early days and I learned a lot in my last fight so now I want to show how much I'm improving."
He added: "Ricky and the team will keep getting me the right fights at the right time and I'll make sure I'm ready to fight whoever is put in front of me."

Bomb explodes near Acropolis in Athens
Associated Press
ATHENS, Greece — A bomb exploded outside a Greek ship owner's house near a crowded pedestrian area under the Acropolis in central Athens on Wednesday night, causing minor damage but no injuries, police said.
The explosion a few hundred meters from the country's most famous monument occurred at about 8:30 p.m., after a warning call to a Greek newspaper.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the blast, which follows a string of bomb attacks in the financially-struggling country by anarchist groups that have caused no major injuries or loss of life.
Police spokesman Panagiotis Papapetropoulos said officers were able before the blast to evacuate one or two people from the building and to seal off the area.
"Judging by the minor extent of the damage, it can't have been a very strong explosive device," he said.
The house belongs to a member of the Tsakos ship owning family, police said.
The blast, which was heard across the city center, occurred very close to one of the Greek capital's favorite pedestrian walks. At the time of the explosion, the walkway was busy with strolling families and tourists.
Greece is suffering an acute financial crisis, and imposed deeply resented austerity measures over the past three years to secure international bailouts that are shielding it from bankruptcy. Domestic anarchist groups have carried out dozens of attacks on police and other symbols of state authority or wealth.
in recent years, especially following the 2008 fatal police shooting of an Athens teenager and during the financial crisis.
The attacks have continued, albeit slightly abated, despite the arrests of more than 20 young Greeks accused of belonging to the most active group — Conspiracy Nuclei of Fire.
Earlier this month, militant anarchists claimed responsibility for a bombing at a package shipping firm in Athens, and threatened further attacks on judges, police and prosecution witnesses in a terrorism trial.
In January, another such group planted a bomb in an Athens shopping mall that lightly wounded two security guards.

It's safe to say Green Day are my most loved band (and I'm not saying that because this is their website)I love other music too. I love to look good and I love learning about new bands too. All I really have to say is GREEN DAY ROCK!!!!
