Death Note
I like Death Note really much, it's more realistic then Bleach, Wumpies etc. and it's even more fun I think. What do you guys think?
Yes, I'd agree that Death Note is a good anime, but going as far to say it's better than bleach , I'd have to disagree. It's cool and all but I've read the manga so many times I get bored of the plot quickly. While Bleach for me is new and interesting.
But my favorite anime character of all time is L. He's so cool and funny at the same time.
Its become really popular. The Live Action movie for it was even popular which was surprising. I don't like it though. I can't get into much anime these days.
Death Note was quite an interesting manga for me. The parts that really got to me were ---WARNING: SPOILER AHEAD--- when L was actually killed by Light. I actually I had always expected L to win but something kept nudging me to believe he would fail and Light would win. But they I found that Near had joined the party and he was even smarter and a better detective than L. Light was always somewhat of a hero to me but then he went mad with power and became the bad guy. Now I wish for his demise.
GOOD THING i have already been spoiled ,
because if i ware not i would hate you very mach
I wouldn't say that Death Note is better than Bleach... I don't know the entire storyline of Death Note but I definitely think that Bleach is more intricate and has more character-work than Death Note. But yah, I might change my mind after I finish watching all of the Death Note series.
[spoiler]Actually, it's debated amongst fans whether L or Near is the superior detective. While L had started completely from scratch and investigated every possibility available to him, Near had started out the investigation with a "grudge", telling himself that Light was the suspect. Near's success was based on a very lucky bias against Light; I am skeptical that Near would've had such resounded success had he not completely convinced himself that Light was Kira, which, to me, isn't a good trait for a detective.[/spoiler]
Death Note is a very beautiful anime I watch it the every week...
The designer are good..
Dearh Note is really good actually with the storyline..I don't watch the anime but I only read the manga...so at some part..sometimes I feel quite boring because it feels like reading a novel not a manga anymore..the scripts seem to be too long and it is not fun anymore to read it..better get a good novel than..
I have all 13 volumes of the manga but I haven't gotten around to reading it yet. Lucky for me, since I've watched the first movie - I wasn't disappointed because I had no expectations! I will probably read the manga after the second movie as a lot of people have expressed that it's much better (manga is always better anyway).
I love it. Maybe even as much as I love FMA. But I will have to wait until it finishes until I decide that.
You're right, I think it blows things like Bleach out of the water. Also, the Shinigamis look awesome!
Well you can read the 12 volumes of the manga, it's finished and you can find it scanlated on the internet very easily.
Thanks, I will definately look that up... I love the story so far.
i like death note. first of all, i think story line is interesting and unique. i also like characters. both main character has cool personalities. it has detective kind of stories. too. i love mysteries, so death note was good comic for me. i only hope it comes out into manga faster. it is really bad when i have to wait for months for new volume....
Death Note is even liked by people who doesn't watch animes in their spare time and thinks it's some child's show - that's true!
I love the plot of the DN, because it's interesting and intriguing. Especially I like the plot twists and such. Well, many people likes Death Note - I love the art and graphics, which are the greatest that Mad House has ever made! Compare Trigun with Death Note and see how much their style has changed.
The music is very original - sounds like a great mystery - very impressive!
yeah, i like deathnote too. i m suprised for their imagination. is a very good story. i wonder how d author come out with this kind of idea.
I haven't read the manga yet but I like the anime. The beginning was nice, good plot, nice drawing style and nice musics but now it looks like it is going to be too long serie. I heard there are going to be 39 episodes, in my opinion 26 would have been enough. Starts to look like the serie is losing it's grip. Naruto would have been great serie if there wouldn't have been any fillers, now it's just an average. I hope the same thing doesn't happen with Death Note. If it hasn't happened already...
And the new opening song is awful.
Death Note rocks... I started watching it a not-so-long while ago. I'm at episode 7 I think. Too bad I already know a big spoiler, that's supposed to spoil everything. Ah well
I hate reading spoilers accidentally haha (when not tagged I mean).
Death Note its amaizing, i have been watching it since the emition of the episode 13... Raito its the Best!! and Riuk Rocks!!
i want my own shinigamin
LOL , me tooo
DN roles --- the best opening ever -- i mean the socond one from 20ep and after that
haha I guess what's so interesting about this plot is that it raises that exact question of if you could kill people easily what would you do. I'm sure people have thought of this at least once, but this anime really brings it up in your face. It's kind of scary actually.
deathnote, killing people with the use of pen and write their names on the deathnote... its a merciless killing for me but the story are grate. the strategy are good specially the knowledge light and L have. i stuck up in episode 7 and i dont know what happen next, maybe ill watch the other episode when i have time. lolz!
Death Note is GREAT! I love the series and the manga, though the movie was a bit of a drag. Death Note was like my anime version of Prison Break. When I heard about the 'shinigami', I groaned and muttered that that particular topic was cliched but after watching the first episode, I got addicted! It's such an entertainingly intellectual show! I love it! Raito FOREVER! L forever!
How long does the series last? I've only been able to watch a pathetic 10 episodes because I've had no time this year and I was kind of distracted by Prince of Tennis. *sheepish grin*
You should check out behindinfinity.deviantart.com SHE cosplays as Raito and it's SO cool.
Death Note is very good, I like very much!!
I am always anxious to see the next episode
yeah. deathnote is good. too bad i oledi read all manga and knew d storyline oledi. so anime for me not so keen to watch d next esp.
Death Note is perfect. I've watched all episodes until now, and this doesn't get bored! I was moved in some moments. I'm also thinking I'm watching a movie, not a TV series. Characters drawings and animation are both great and enjoyable. It looks expensive! And remember - it's from Mad House, and it's a masterpiece! It's just unbelieveable! And it's longer than 26 episodes already (there are 37 episodes planned, according to AniDB.net information).
Music is also great. Gives a serious impact.
Great! Just great! The best anime I've ever seen.
Death note is great and I reckon the movie wasn't too bad either. However, to compare with Bleach is incomparable. I don't want to justify myself because some above me probably has. But Deathnote is definitely worth checking upon! AND watch the movie too it's wicked!
Death note is chock full of homoerotic suggestion (foot massage, handcuffing together, the love-hate relationship between L and Kira)
Still a good series.
DN anime series is actually the only thing i'm watching. There's a very interesting website for fans of DN www.deathnote7.com
So there's only 12 volumes? I've only read the first one ^^;
Death Note is an amazing anime, although the manga is way better. The story has so many twists and turns that it's really hard to believe it's just an anime/manga series.
I love the Death Note manga ^_^
Mikami Teru rocks. If I had the same hair and appearance like him, the ladies would fall over for me for sure. I would go out with one lady in the morning, one in the afternoon... ehem, that wasn't exactly what I wanted to say.
Only a few episodes left, but it seems that it's not ending at all. And someone said that there is 38 episodes (obviously a mistake or misleading false information but we will see). I especially like the music.
It's quite hard to find the manga over here. I'm probably too lazy to go find an anime shop but is there any good websites that u can purchase it off? Some online shop that I can trust ?
death note is soo.. well thought of and a very intelligent anime
"Death Note" is a great detective manga. I like the battle for intelligence of Raito and L best.
Fusion Breeze
Death Note is the absolute Anime. I am obssesed with it. AARGH I ordered from my bookstore the First 2 volumes of the manga. yay After Death Note for me comes Full Metal Alchemist Bleach Elfen Lied D.Gray-Man and Air. That's my Top...6
Did anyone finish reading the manga? It kind of got slow around volume 6. Does it get better after that? I'm graduating soon so I'll have some free time on my hands till I find a job or decide to go to graduate school so maybe i'll finish death note up.
Mathew Elric
I thought that it was pretty funny what happens to Ryuku when he doesn't get apples. Then when he finds out he won't get getting any he turns back to normal.
Death Note is my favorite manga/anime of all time. It has the action that is from the mysteries within the manga and I can relate to both L and light in that I think things out and even beyond what others may think up to and analyze how things would turn out. I love the intelligence at work between the two. I read 10 volumes of the manga in one night >.>
I don't read mangas, I only watch anime. And I freaking love the Death Note anime, even though I'm not that far yet - I'm at episode 9 I think.
One thing that bothers me a lot is that I already know the ending, because some idiot on another forum forgot to mark his spoilers. And it was just a random anime thread, so I didn't see it coming. It's very freaking annoying because I am very interested in the series and characters, but I already know what's gonna happen
Ah well, Death Note is still awesome.
What is this anime all about? Haven't watched it yet though..
^ Death Note is about a bored genius named "Light Yagami" who finds a notebook called Death Note that kills people. The notes are originally owned by a Shinigami, but once it is dropped into the human world, intentional or not, the ownership is then transferred to the human who picks it up. Light Yagami decides to use the Death Note to clean the world from evil by writing down the names of the criminals around the world. A world renowned detective comes to the screen to fight and stop him. It's a battle of wits.
I highly recommend you to watch it. It's so awesome.
oh.. okay then.. I'll download it right-a-way!
I've just started reading / watching the show. I'm already far more intrigued than with some of the other Shonen Jump titles. (D. Gray Man could not hold me attention for the life of me. Interesting premise...but..eh.)
I reserve full judgement until I'm farther in. But I wouldn't call it "better" than Bleach -- aside from the death aspect, they're like comparing (lol) apples and strawberries.
I really love the art style, though.
I had heard about this show for a while, but never got around to watching it.
At first, I thought the idea of the story was kinda dumb, but the way the story flows and the intelligence of everything, it can be pretty exciting.
I watched the first 16 episodes in one sitting, and will watch the rest today. I hear it officially ends with the next episode?
To be honest, I thought I would be more into Death Note than I am. I started reading the manga, and got bored with it within two or three chapters. I couldn't really identify with the characters (in fact, I find most of them to be extremely annoying and unrealistic), and the plot moved relatively slowly. I've watched a few bits of the anime, and while it's gorgeous, it's not enough to motivate me to watch the entire thing.
Though I am glad they waited until the manga was finished to make the anime - no ridiculous filler material that way!
Indeed, it ends with the next episode (37). But they could make it longer, add new plots or something. I won't spoil you, but I think... well that's not really important. On the other hand, 37 episodes is long enough, since the idea of Death Note will soon be fired out and it will be no more a fascinating story about Yagami Raito, who is thinking out a new plan to make his "new perfect world"...
that's what I thought at first.. death note killing people is just.. huh? but then I got hooked the moment I read it. LOL
I'm glad that the anime sticked to the manga storyline.
subbed Episode 37 is out~ >__< the last episode.. will watch it soon.
How do u liked the last episode? I loved.
37 is out? Im up to 35... gotta finish it up now, I'm psyched
Last episode was BRILLIANT - I would say that Death Note in it's last episode was finally a worth horror, not just some criminal anime. It was very briliant and serious and mature! Better than any movie, interesting as hell.
And what's more - THERE WILL BE 38 EPISODE OF DEATH NOTE!
It will be a summary of the whole series and will air in summer in japanese "prime time" slot. I think it's true, but I don't know when will it air. I hope they will include the rest of the Death Note ending - as you know, anime differs from manga in episode number 37 - they didn't include the part where Near becomes the next L, and Matsuda and Ide shit talk about morality of killing Kira (whatever xD).
The finale was changed a bit, but the main point's still there anyway. I LOVE IT. Death Note is one of my all time favorite anime.
WOW!! REALLY?! YAY!! another episode?! that's super nice!
I agree.. that part when they were talking about Kira etc.. I was looking for that in the last episode but they didn't show it.
Death Note is a beautiful.Good anime.I lake Death Note
I would like to see Death Note ending version 2. Why? Because it was too much altered from manga. Let's see - first when Mikami attempts suicide, Light is opening the door and running away. In manga it was diffrent. He was talking with Ryuk. He begs him for writing Near and others name in the notebook and Ryuk tells him that he will do it. Light is acting like a winner again, but Ryuk shows him notebook. There's not Near and co. names, but Yagami Light only. Light is shocked. He screams for help, tells Ryuk to stop it. But Ryuk says only that Light isn't acting like his own self. He's losing it. He has lost.
Light screams for help, he says he don't have to die. But then, 40 seconds pass, and Light dies with "Shit" coming out from his mouth . When he dies, his eyes are wide open. It's really terrific - read the manga :]. And then there are signs that was used in the anime in half of episode (All humans... blablabla).
And there was a scene with Near chosen as new L! It was much more brutal in manga, why didn't they show it in anime?
But still - episode 37 proves it - Death Note is still a horror .
Death Note is quite the awesome anime to watch. has an intense storyline but as it develops it seems to drag on too much.. introducing too many new characters made the series get boring.. only my thoguht..
Nah, I think the problem was that not enough background information was given about the new characters such as Near and Mello. That reason alone made them not as memorable as L.
Is it realistic that you become stronger which is shown by blond hair and teal eyes? Realistic that there are ninjas who are able to make clones of themselves or charge an electric current into their palm which allows them to pierce through the body of a human being?
Are you lost? Do you know where you are? This is Anime and Comics.
Well after some thinking and watching some better anime than Death Note (There are better, believe me DN isn't that perfect either) it's time for final verdict.
I think the first part of Death Note (before the Ryuuzaki's death) is very good, realistic and breath-taking. But unfortunately, the next part of this anime is somewhat surrealistic. Near and Mello are completely torn up characters from DN world - they're not composing it well. And that Light and Takada conversations - I just couldn't believe Takada was such an idiot! It's just stupid and unrealistic to me! And the rest of time, Light spends on flitrting with girls and doing NOTHING with Death Note while Near is preparing a serious plan.
And his first mistake was to choose the person whom he will pass the power of DN - he chose Mikami Teru - he was shown on TV and he speak like an "kira fanatic". Everyone would guess that Mikami is the closest person to Kira - it's obvious! And he passed it on him, while he has been shown on TV - so he's apparently well known!
Well the last part of your statement is a little... mistaken. Mikami was shown on TV and spoke, yes. But it's widely accepted that other people got air time to speak as well. Some probably more "kira fanatic-like." Kira chose Mikami because he had the right balance of devotion, intelligence, and shared his sense of justice.
death note is great!!! but i think that bleach is better!!!! bueno eso es lo que yo creo en cuanto a accion, pero es mas real death note
Although they both involve Shinigamis, they're not comparable with one another... It's like comparing Hikaru no Go with One Piece; you can't do it.
I really enjoyed Death Note from the beginning to the 2nd last episode. For some reason the ending wasn't to my liking. I'm not going to spoil it but although it was expected, I just hoped for a better one then the 1 I saw. I also watched the Death Note Movie with actual live characters. Although they changed it around and stuff, I enjoyed it a lot. The ending surprised me a lot because of a different way they did the ending compared to the manga and anime. To be honest I enjoyed it 20x more then it was only L + Light. Anyhow overall this anime has satisfied me due to the many thriller this anime offers and how well they used different tactics in order to do what they needed to do=p.
I just finished watching the last two episodes yesterday. I didn't like the ending episode very much but I guess it was -alright-. There were so many surprises in the anime; Light was so smart to think of all of those things to overcome his rivals! But not smart enough, I suppose. xD
Well, not smart enough - apparently xDDD. But it was to suppose. No one is perfect - and especially no one is perfect forever. Light was smart and cool, but he couldn't hide the Kira's presence forever. It was just not possible.
I haven't actually seen the deathnote anime version. Is the anime version similar to the movie? Does the main guy become evil and joins L to catch the new person who recieves the book?
Apparently the manga's better than the anime... but yeah =S..
Hm, I thought I had a bunch of episodes on dvd but somehow they've disappeared.. I think I watched one or two episodes but never really got into it..
How many episodes have been made thus far?
I enjoyed watching Death Note, it's my second favourite anime. I think Light owns!
All 37 episodes are out, rumors say the 38th (alternate [Manga] ending) episode should come out soon.
Iv been reading some Death note recently, just a few chapters on the internet its really good so far >3
I've watched Death Note Episode 38 (it's not really episode 38, you can't name it like that, because it's Death Note:R to be precise and it's Director's Cut version of Death Note) and it's, well... not bad. But I will tell you about it precisely:
- It's basically Death Note 1-25 in a short version. It contains a small opening scene showing Ryuk in Death God World - but after episode 37. It's not a big deal - I won't spoil here, and then we get retrospection.
What is new in retrospection?:
Basically from first view it's a episode 1-25 in shorter version - some cuts, new dialogues, and some new OST tracks are shown. Then, we get absolutely NEW scene showing Light going into Ryuzaki's "mansion" - it's almost identical in that weird glass room shown in the 2nd opening ("What's up people") so it's pretty new. And what's more, when we get to Higuchi - when there's porsche chase we can hear Zetsubou Billy playing - that's cool. And okay, there are some more scenes (I haven't watched the whole movie, because it's almost identical) and in the end - there's an ABSOLUTELY new scene showing Ryuzaki's funreal (!!). Then when Light is praying at his grave and everyone leaves him alone, he starts doing absurd things - he kneels before the grave like an awful parody of a dog and starts shouting that he won against L. And then, we are seeing that Light had become new god of this world ruled by Kira.
And what's more? After a short scene we're seeing dusty old Ryuk's Death Note with Yagami Light name written in it, and then it's the end. There's some kind of "ending" - but that's only usual staff roll like in most movies followed by "Arumina" ("Alumina") song sung by Nightmare (1st ending).
What is to note:
- It's avalible only as RAW - you won't find it on BitTorrent quickly, I've got it from the japanese P2P - share itself.
- It aired in Full HD - it's very surprising to see Death Note in such beautiful quality - and it's not an upscale!
Sorry if I spoiled, but it isn't a big deal. Special is worth 2 hours and 10 minutes of watching (excluding commercials, with commercials it's 3 hours in total, as they presented it).
It aired on NTV, 31 August, on 19:57 (If I'm not wrong). Maybe someone will sub it and release it, but not for sure. Personally I think no one will sub it, because of the Viz stupid license, fools!
Death Note is a good anime, but going as far to say it's better than bleach , I'd have to disagree. It's cool and all but I've read the manga so many times I get bored of the plot quickly. While Bleach for me is new and interesting.
Read both manga and watched the series, personally i found the manga better, mainly the ending, i geuss they didnt want light to scream like a gurl in the anime
Death Note:R isn't subbed yet, but it's great suplement to the series with many omakes. To those who haven't watched it - watch it RAW - because it's basically the same, but better. Without Near and Mello surrealistic plots. I've heard Kuro-Hana is subbing it. They're 90% with translations, but nevertheless, they haven't got done typesetting or timing or what. They're delaying it because they haven't got time now. Sucks! And it's very well done HD upscale.
I'm almost done with the anime: just 4 or 5 episodes to go... it's gonna suck to see it end because it's so great haha. Definitely one of my favorites, and that's pretty unusual for me (seeing as I usually like anime with swords and fighting-action, set back in time ).
I found in this topic that some of you tried to compare DN to Bleach. They are both interesting but in very different styles. I wanted to ask you which seinen mangas or animes are interesting you now. Personally its really hard for me to appreciate new ones after discovering DN or Samuraï Champloo.
hi there, i have just get the manga but i don't know but if read the manga or watch the tv version first, can u give me some advise?
I'd say read the manga and watch TV series at once, because they are similiar in many ways (but not identical). At least I can say - the same story, but a BIT diffrent ending (the dialogues are the same, but scene is diffrent), so you can do both at the same time. But remember - reading manga is more enjoying than watching anime - trust me ;] If you can buy all volumes, I'm jealous because here in Poland we have 2 volumes only (yet... they're still releasing) or even one volume (I just don't get interested in what our publishing companies takes to publish - only manga is good. DVDs here are just crap - both for quality and sub quality.).
So, the choice is yours. Both are mind-blowing and interesting.
OK, I'll take the advice, but i'll try reading the volume 1 first.
See you then, I'll comment about it later.
I can't wait to get Death Note: R... after I get a new computer (my place got broken into and my laptop AND desktop got jacked which explains why my Points are so low). But since it's done in HD, it's probably going to take awhile to get... and a pretty good computer to watch it.
oh, I didn't know there's a Death Note: R. I will be waiting for the subs.
I'm currently watching the anime series right now i'm on episode 6. Although I've watched the 2 live action movies first, I still decided to watch the anime series as I want more elaboration on the storyline. Maybe I'll read the manga too after watching the anime series. The art style of the anime is quite good and very detailed, the storyline is quite good too, I might say its not for the average anime fun who thirst for action scenes as this aniime is more on the thinking side.
I saw the ending a few days ago, I was shocked haha. I hoped for something else but I can't say I didn't see it coming. It was nice though, really left me thinking. No spoilers though
Excellent series, definitely one of my favorites. It's also the first anime of which I've witnessed every episode from until the end (I was a big DBZ fan back in the day but I missed a lot of the last saga) - and man, it was the first time I was really HOOKED. Great characters, awesome plot and plotswitches, sad ending. Too bad stuff has to come to and end end haha
Well after some time Death Note doesn't appear to be perfect - but it's still one of the best animes there are out there. Especially when it comes to plot and story overall. But I don't really like the part with Mello and Near. It's just too surrealistic to me, and not believable. L was the best after all.
Check Tokyotosho.org - there's an subbed version of Death Note:R from some group, but I don't remember their name. And yeah, Kuro-Hana is subbing it now, but they have stalled it for a bit (they haven't got much time). And one more thing - Death Note:R isn't licensed right now, so you can download it freely (I don't think it would be licensed).
BTW - some time in November (in a few days) you'll get (well, I'm not from US, I'm from Poland you know;d) Death Note Vol.1 DVD US Release from Viz. Apparently this release would be worse than orginal japanese 2.0. Why? It's obvious. Viz like to make shit from perfect source, but it still will kick ass so don't worry ;]. And I don't like those "448kbps -> 192kbps" audio downsample ;/. Let's hope it will be DVD9 ;].
But at least the cover is the same... well, almost ;] expect for those nasty VIZ MEDIA logos. I suggest import - there are no subs but it's just better ;].
Besides some yaoi animes which my friends made me watch....Death Note was my first and absolute favorite anime/manga!!!! It was amazing....got me entirely into the whole anime/manga phase...which i will never drop out of lol
I've loled all over the place when I saw that screen of the movie "L - Change the World" showing L in some sort of a bicycle with child in package xD.
Death Note was continued! The new, special chapter had arosen. You can check it on the net. It feature 3 years after Light was killed by Ryuk using Death Note. It seems that the next KiRA is out there, but it seems that he wasn't strong-willed enough and killed himself with note, because he was not able to kill again and again. Well, Light and others were special.
I haven't really found a manga around my area, but I love the anime. I wasn't really much of an anime fan until I watched Death Note. After watching Death Note, I started watching so many other animes. Death Note is still my favorite anime though, even though L ended up dieing in the middle episode. A friend of mine says I am kinda like the character L. I like to sit down the same way he does. It's just a comfortable way to sit.
I believe you're supposed to put a spoiler warning when you... spoil something as big as... the status of L.
I think spoilling a series which already out about more than 6 months are not that bad... and just "x will die" is not a really big sin, they still could think and guessing how did x die.
IMO. Death note are just a so-so anime, the manga too. Just enough for killing some time, not a must have or memorable series.
Deathnote's story is separated two parts.
light vs L story so good!!
but, vs Near story , i dont like part of all....
this story lacks thrill of brain battle.
I enjoyed Death Note alot.
It was interesting and fun to watch (ye, gotta read thorugh the manga some time too). Used to sit up late at night watching several episodes in a row thinking "kk, just one more..!" .
I agree that the L vs Light story was more fun than L vs Near, but they were both nice.. but L is just so cool ;D.
i like deathnote its an anime where you nee dto think alot but when L died.. i started to get bored so i stoppt watching the episodes.. and the movies are great to
So you never finished the whole series? At least watch the Director's Cut, it doesn't sum everything up like the series did, but at least is rushes the whole Near v. Light thing.
I did not finish the whole series ....I cant see how L die.....So sad....
I lost tons of interest in it after that depressing thing happened. but I continued cause a large part of my interest was still present. watch til the end, it's still fun. ^_^
L was the man. Other than that weird part with the feet thing... he's all cool. What was with the feet thing anyway?
alternative for ones dont like much of fights and "radukens",
and very interesting theme...
i realy liked it,
"L rules" ...
It is a great anime that is for sure, but for me it became less interesting and more repetitive once they killed off L.
wow I love death note, how do they come with this this stuff, i mean all the twists and turns, when you think L is wining light comes up with this out of the world plan and when you think Light is wining L comes back with a left hook, I haven't finished the series yet I got side tracked by Naruto I'm at episode 13 of the 31 episodes.
Awsome anime!!
I heard that anime but i dont know what volume has totally 6 DeathNote (God of Death)
Is it true????
i just watch till L died. I haven't watch and read the manga from which M and N investigate Kira(Light) but mostly, i can buy the DVD sooner to watch the full movie. Hope So
There will be a new Director's Cut in the summer, so Death Note boom in media seems to be continuing, but the idea was too long even for 37 episodes. I guess first part (25 episodes) was better than second part, but still it's the best anime in the few years with original storyline. Also the anime was done almost perfectly, since it's Mad House job! God, their animation changed so dramatically past those few years. Look at Trigun and compare it with DN. So diffrent.
As for DVDs I suggest R2J. They are superior from R1, even when they don't have subtitles on it. Maybe it's not a huge diffrence but always. At least they have bigger bitrate for video, as well as audio (448kbps 2.0 AC3 in case of R2J).
I watched the animated series and also the first 2 live action movies. I haven't read the manga yet and I haven't watched the latest movie L: Change the World. I'd say its a fun to watch. The idea of a notebook that can kill people just by writing their names on it has been very original to me.
I've read all tewelve volumes of the manga, it is the first manga i ever finished reeeading all the way thought. I've want to see the show on Cartoon Network. When reading the books it was so hard to keep from screaming at the characters in the book. Light and L, the author did a freat job on the storyline.
When I first read about how the story goes, I thought the idea is stupid. I mean, death by writing names on a notebook? x/ but I was hooked as soon as I read the first chapter. It really is very original. Also the protagonist being the antagonist theme. Love it.
I love Death Note completely for what it is. Not comparing it to anything else or asking any 'what ifs.' I'm a big fan of animation, and that is what originally got me hooked. And the relationships between the characters. So interesting. Especially Ryuk and Light. I first saw Ryuk and I remember thinking, 'What..?' Then I jumped in to find a really great story. I'm still debating which character I'd call my favorite. ^_^ L or Ryuk.. hm. IL. Just, L. Love him.
L was the best charchter in Death note.. But he DIED..
That was the worst part of the series...
I only recently found death note, and it is probably the only Anime i have ever watched and liked. Its just got such a great story line that continuously develops and transforms as you get deeper and deeper into the story.
Like pretty much everyone else in the world who likes death note, i was almost turned away form it when L died, but powering through just to see how things turned out was worth it.
The art and animation used in Death Note is amazing, and is probably one of the other huge reasons of why i enjoy it so much. So far i have only watched the Anime series and I'm yet to watch the movies or read the Manga, maybe one day
Death Note is my favorite Manga/Anime EVER, to bad it ended.
I would have to say my favorite character is Near by far. I personally hate the way the movies were.
The only thing they had right was that Ryuk killed Light. I was hoping they would at least show Near in the movie but noooo.
Oh and BTW nice to meet some more Death Note fans.
Well there's a reason why Near and Mello never made it in the movie. The movie is only approx. 2 hours long and when you look at the big picture of Death Note, Near and Mello only appear at the very end... wrapping something up that L took a lot of screen time setting up.
I love L?
He's so cuute. x)
when i watched this deathnote i get lss in "sakujo!! sakujo!! sakujo!!"
I've only started watching it myself, but what I'm seeing so far, I'm liking ^.^
Mrs Lycos
I love L
And Ligth is too much cool! xD
I like it! {:
Yeah, totally agree with the host. DN is just like the plot design of Prison Break Season 1. Always keeps your level of adrenalin high. Haha.
Death Note and Maximum the Hormone make a really good combination
I loved death note but when L died the series sorta died too.
I love the Death Note manga ^_^
Yes I like so much.
i agree that deathnote is really cool and great, the animation was good, the manga had a very nice drawing style, really detailed but i disagree about it being better the bleach and the wumpies xd
Yes I like so much.
This was a terrific series! However, I quit watching once SOMEONE died
You'll need to be specific as to who died ^^.
But yes, after L died it just became less and less thrilling. A new threat appearing seems kinda boring.. a bunch of stuff was just done to get rid of the first threat. So if there's a new one, there's just gonna be more time wasted. And then the main character dies. Very disappointing.
i like death note also... if i can have tht book, really cool man
Deathnote ROCKS!!! LOL!!!
The show was awesome and I wish it could have continued, but it had to end. I still hate Near and Mello....They destroyed one of the best shows in the history of anime. Almost every one knows that light would have never have lost to such bumbling pedestrian characters.
This is a great series, I just wish it was as long as bleach, and maybe with less tragic deaths.
Deathnote is an awesome anime/ manga/ etc. I have not read the manga, but I am sure that i will eventually get to it... the ending was very sad, but I saw it coming. the live action movie was ok, but i wish that they kept it a bit closer to the orginal. there is an american version coming out (i think) which I hope will be good, but i know that it will not be.
DEATH NOTE IS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST. i only started reading manga because of it. i just absolutely went for light. light was the best caharacter. the fact that a kid beat him just too bad. light is soooo awesome. i cant believe ryuk killed him. i always thought there was a side plan for light. but noooo. stupid Near. i wish light won.
Um... Ryuk told Light from the beginning that he would probably be the one who takes his life.
I love death note im not to sure about the cartoon but the movie is frikken awesome, deffinitly worth a watch ill continue watching the cartoon since i aint seen many episodes.
make sure u watch anime/ and watch the movies as well,t here an anime movie too....
I honestly think it ended the wrong way I never wanted Light to die. But then again, I suppose it had to end somehow. After L dies however the plot became a little unstable and Near did not really make a very strong lead good guy Milo had more personality but was also more imperfect so I am led to believe that once L died the Author decided he needed to wrap things up just a little too fast. Death Note was one of those Anime that I wish had over a hundred episodes...
Why did it have to end like that I wanted to see Light take over the world.
Watched the live action movies and really liked both of them but not yet had the chance to watch the anime yet.
If anybody know portuguese... here is the best brazilian site about death note...
Cya, bye
..death note rocks! especially L, the eye bug boy.. LOL.. he,s a genius in solving crimes.. and also N.. he finished what L has started..
death note is weird cause a notebook that kills anyones name in it? thats impossible but as an anime it is really good.
I believe that Deathnote is way better than Bleach, the humor and seriousness most of all, bleach has its strong points (mostly its size), but i find often that its humor is a bit stupid and aimed towards kids way more than deathnote. besides the story of deathnote is just flat out better since it deals with morals, the ulitimate plot.
deathnote was good manga, i especially liked the artwork, although the plot was predictable its was still good.
Death Note is a good manga, the movie was different but i still liked it. Very good series in general.
I love Deathnote but i don't like Near and Mello. How come they managed to outwit KIRA? L is also my favorite I prefer him better than those 2 kids. L and kira, a perfect match up.
it's good, the plot is better than normal anime.
At least, Light's way of thinking makes sense.
L is so ma-L!
I only watched the movie versions. The story is quite interesting, and the characters are well-acted. The CGI seems abit off though, I'm not sure whether it's intentional or not. Haven't have a time to watch the anime series.

The GROW consortium will work to achieve two objectives:
As a long-term and dedicated Research, Development & Demonstration (RD&D) partnership, GROW's strength will lie in its ability to run focused, sequential and complementary RD&D activities. It can thus concentrate on those activities that are most valuable in supporting the consortium partners in reaching the consortium's objectives. It can also exploit synergies between projects and commercialize innovations faster and more efficiently. In so doing, GROW will accelerate innovation in offshore wind.
Eleven RD&D program lines will pursue the objectives of LCOE reduction, added value creation, and a stronger Dutch offshore wind sector. These program lines will cover the full value chain. Research will take place across the majority of technology readiness levels (TRL), from academic research in TRL 2 to testing and demonstration of large systems in TRL 8.
Download the public summary (PDF)
Offshore wind will be indispensable in the energy transition in the Netherlands and worldwide. In the short run, offshore wind will help realize CO2 emissions targets. In the long run, it will become an essential part of the energy system. But to do this, offshore wind must become cost-competitive, integrated into the energy system without the need for subsidies.
The Dutch offshore wind sector is ideally positioned to overcome the challenges of the offshore wind roll-out, and can deliver new technologies on a large scale.
GROW's RD&D program will build on this position to further strengthen Dutch leadership in offshore wind.
The founders of GROW are leading Dutch companies and research institutes in the offshore wind sector in the Netherlands. They cover the full value chain in offshore wind. The consortium will be expanded in due course with other partners that are willing to commit to the GROW program and approach, both strategically and financially.
Together, the 16 GROW founders cover the essential parts of the offshore wind value chain

The cornerstone of President Juan Manuel Santos' year-old government is a bold plan to compensate an estimated 4 million victims of Colombia's long-running civil conflict.
The so-called Victims Law, enacted in June, is an ambitious proposition: Nothing similar has ever been attempted on any continent.
Colombia remains at war, and determining who qualifies for reparations will often be tricky enough. The cost is also high, an estimated $20 billion over a decade.
The biggest challenge: Leaders of dispossessed peasants, emboldened by the law to try to win back stolen land, keep getting killed, and the state appears hard-pressed to halt the slayings.
"I don't want to be a pessimist but I think in two years the violence is going to grow," said Yamile Salinas, a land expert with the National Commission for Restitution and Reparation.
Colombia's is a dirty war in which most victims are civilians, and land tenancy has been at the heart of the nation's bloodletting since independence two centuries ago.
Shadowy far-right militias known as paramilitaries have done most of the killing. First formed in the 1980s to defend ranchers and drug traffickers against rebel extortion, they evolved into criminal bands that often operated in concert with the military. Shakedown artists and drug runners, many now work as hired guns for holders of stolen land.
The Victims Law, in addition to providing cash to survivors of more than 50,000 slain, aims to return at least 7,700 square miles (2 million hectares) to 430,000 families from whom it was wrested over the past two decades. Some experts estimate that four times that amount was stolen _ an area slightly bigger than West Virginia and nearly the size of Austria.
The dispossessed are mostly poor peasants, and their lingering dislocation is why Colombia ranks second after Sudan in internally displaced people, with more than 3 million.
Since Santos took office, more than a dozen leaders of landless peasants have been slain, says the CODHES human rights group. At least 50 such activists have been killed since 2002, the same year Alvaro Uribe was elected president. Uribe waged all-out war on leftist rebels with U.S. aid and made a deal with paramilitary leaders, promising reduced jail sentences in return for their laying down arms.
Dozens of lawmakers and regional politicians who backed Uribe were later convicted of criminal conspiracy, or worse, for allying themselves with the militias.
As defense minister from 2006-2009, Santos was tough on rebels and thus popular in provincial Colombia. But with the Victims Law, he's squaring off against shadowy provincial powerbrokers.
He blames the killings of activists on "a few who want to keep their ill-gotten land."
"We're not going to let this law fail," the president told The Associated Press in an interview Saturday.
Santos told the AP he couldn't estimate how much money his government will be able to dedicate to implementing it. He is seeking help from the U.S. and European Union but, given tough fiscal times, knows he can't expect much.
Asked how he plans to protect activists, Santos said the government is "creating elite groups that will be dedicated to this process."
From its start, the reparation campaign has been bloodstained.
After the first ceremonial land handover on Sept. 21, one recipient was bludgeoned to death as he walked home in the turbulent Uraba banana-growing region on the Caribbean coast. The killers left four bullets beside Hernando Perez's body as a warning to his comrades.
The latest killing occurred in San Onofre, a northern town that straddles the Caribbean and the Montes de Maria mountains. On June 30, a gunman shot and killed a town councilman who had worked closely with peasants fighting to regain usurped land.
Other activists are worried they could be next.
"I hardly slept last night," said Julia Torres, a 41-year-old mother of four who represents 52 families fighting to hold on to La Alemania farm in rural San Onofre. "I'm afraid to even go bathe at the well alone."
Torres' husband, Rogelio Martinez, was shot to death by a half-dozen hooded men as he walked home to the 1,360-acre (550-hectare) property on a May afternoon last year.
"He had it in his head that they could murder him at any moment but he said, 'I'm not leaving.' He'd say, 'If they kill me, you go on and fight for this, because it's yours.' And that's why we've stuck around," Torres said at the farm, where a tropical rainstorm spooked the few burros that are now its lone livestock.
Activists consider La Alemania an important test case.
Three years after the families bought La Alemania, a paramilitary boss, Rodrigo Mercado, decided to make it his base. He drove nearly everyone off the farm, killing three residents the first day, witnesses said.
Five years later, he was gone, driven from the area by a local Marine commander. Men under his command had by then killed hundreds, raped dozens and plundered far and wide, selling off La Alemania's more than 600 head of cattle, a herd the owners had financed with loans.
When residents finally returned in 2007, the farm was mostly fallow and in foreclosure. They'd defaulted on $164,000 in loans, one-third of its value. A Medellin-based company, Covinoc, had purchased the debt and intended to auction off the property.
The AP contacted Covinoc officials by telephone and email multiple times to ask their plans for La Alemania. They said their lawyer would respond, but he did not.
The farm was not included in a Santos government pilot program that returned 55 square miles (14,300 hectares) of ill-gotten lands, though La Alemania's owners registered it four years ago with a government program designed to prevent the sale of such parcels.
That leaves its fate uncertain until the Agricultural Ministry begins, in January at the earliest, to catalog and attempt to resolve such prickly cases. The ministry will compile a registry of allegedly stolen lands and include data on any violence employed to obtain them, said Alejandro Reyes, a top land expert working in the Agricultural Ministry.
Special courts will decide the cases, grappling with a labyrinthine land-tenure system in which 90 percent of contested properties are untitled and land registry offices have been burned down and looted.
Reyes says about two-thirds of the stolen land is in the hands of paramilitaries, most of the rest controlled by rebels. Many major usurpers, among them drug traffickers, have hidden holdings behind straw men, "testaferros" in Spanish, police and prosecutors say.
A total of 14,000 landowners hold 60 percent of Colombia's arable land, while 2.5 million peasant farming families together have less than 20 percent, said Reyes.
"The peasants are on poor marginalized land," Reyes said, while most of the best land is dedicated to cattle ranching.
The Victims Law will not return all the land stolen from peasants because some has been planted with monoculture crops such as African palm and hardwoods including teak.
Some will get cash payments if it is determined that heavy investment was made in cultivating the land taken from them. That means that many who were forced at gunpoint to sell at larcenous discounts will likely end up as tenant farmers on land that once was theirs.
Critics complain that the law doesn't mandate criminal charges for usurpers.
"No one has been pursued criminally over land," Salinas said. "We haven't even seen the first case."
That pains the Verbels, who have paid dearly for resisting land-grabbers.
Two of eight siblings in the closely-knit San Onofre family have been killed for denouncing the paramilitaries who they say have been trying to force them to sell their 220-acre (90-hectare) farm, strategically located on a road gangs use to smuggle cocaine to the adjacent Gulf of Morosquillo to dispatch abroad.
First Guillermo Verbel was killed in 2005, run over by a car that went into reverse to finish the job. He had publicly challenged corrupt local officials, the family says. The second sibling, Eder, was shot and killed on the farm on March 23, while with his brother Orlando. Orlando saved himself by running, and later identified the killers.
One of the suspects is a demobilized paramilitary who until September received a $225 monthly stipend from the government, police say.
The Verbels are now too terrified to work a farm that was once rich in corn and cassava; instead they live in a threadbare cluster of homes in San Onofre's dirt streets.
"I had to pawn the TV, the blender. I pawned my soldering kit, my drill, my polisher. I've got everything hocked in order to be able to eat," said Elmer de Jesus Verbel, a sibling of the slain men.
He says his auto mechanic's business has been boycotted because the family stood up to the paramilitaries.
San Onofre is run by a "paramilitary regime" controlled by powerful landholders, says Rep.Ivan Cepeda, an opposition lawmaker and chief spokesman for Colombia's Movement of Victims of State Crimes.
Rights activists say the city's mayor, as well as local police and prosecutors, are complicit.
Mayor Edgar Benitorevollo denies the accusations and the regional police chief, Col. Orlando Polo, refused to discuss the issue. The mayor's sister, Muriel Benitorevollo, is a former regional lawmaker who was released from prison in October 2008 after serving half of a four-year prison sentence for colluding with paramilitaries.
Other regional politicians convicted in the paramilitary scandal remain imprisoned for crimes including the murder of a local mayor, Tito Diaz.
Diaz was slain in 2003, two months after telling then-President Uribe in a nationally telecast forum that his murder was being plotted. The state governor at the time, a man Uribe would later name ambassador to Chile, is now serving a 40-year prison sentence for ordering the murder.
Reyes and other government leaders in Bogota are achingly aware of the challenges of protecting leaders of the dispossessed, who are under threat all across rural Colombia.
"It is not humanly possible to guarantee" their safety, Reyes said. "To give guarantees that there won't be violence in Colombia you would need to stop history cold, disarm the entire country and solve all the social disputes behind the conflict."
If the Victims Law is to succeed, the government must quickly identify and bring to trial the people who are ordering the killings, says Carmen Palencia, president of the National Association of Victims for Restitution and Access to Land.
Palencia has twice been violently displaced but refused to stop organizing to regain usurped land. In 1995, gunmen pumped three bullets into her.
"In order to break up the criminal bands, you need to touch very important people in this country who have very close ties to drug trafficking," Palencia said.
Tito Diaz's son Juan David, a doctor forced by death threats to flee into exile last year, says his case demonstrates how Colombia has once again become very dangerous for rights workers.
"The peasants have been handed a time bomb that is now blowing up in their hands, being newly victimized because the state hasn't put in place a policy for the organized and structured return of lands," he told the AP in an email from the United States.
Palencia says she receives death threats almost weekly. She has round-the-clock protection from state-assigned bodyguards.
Julia Torres does not.
She must rely on Marines stationed a 15-minute motorcycle ride away near the entrance to San Onofre and who sometimes patrol La Alemania.
"They're the only support I've got," she says, worry lines creasing the smooth skin of an otherwise youthful face. "Sometimes when I need to go somewhere I ask them to accompany me.
"I feel at risk being alone," Torres added, "anxious that someone could also be waiting for me on the road."

D.J. Grothe is No Longer Running James Randi Educational Foundation. Let Me Tell You Why This is a Good Thing.
D.J Grothe is no longer with JREF. For many of us who have some insight from behind the scenes, this is a good, even great thing.
Last year D.J, who was booked as a speaker at the European Skeptics Congress in Stockholm, simply didn't show up. The group that organized the congress were quite surprised, since he hadn't contacted us for a cancellation. They managed, at the last minute, to throw in another speaker to take his place.
When I got in contact with him, he sounded quite surprised and claimed that he absolutely had cancelled recently. I then asked him to let us know who he had communicated with, and he promised to do so. He didn't, however, and when I kept asking him for it he kept telling me that he would get back to me about this when he was by his computer. He never did. He also promised the Swedish Skeptics to pay us the money for the hotel room, but never did. Both of these facts I double checked a while ago with the current board.
This could of course be just misunderstandings and innocent mistakes, but that seemed less likely when I started to hear a bunch of similar stories from other people and organizations – D.J. not showing up, not keeping promises and not paying people money. The biggest problem was not him being a no-show and not paying for a hotel room, the biggest problem was that the boss of JREF seemed to be lying to us and that this appeared to be a pattern.
The scary part is that two other people, independent of each other, were in contact with me with the intent to write a story about the pattern of all his bad behavior, but couldn't because people didn't dare to go on the record with the crappy thing he's done. People were scared to ruin their careers or get into legal problems.
And then there's the criticism from former employees about a bad working environment, especially for women, and his response to people raising concerns about social issues and the situation for women and other groups in the skeptics movement has been to ignore it and write post after post in social media about how overly sensitive women, transgender and other groups in minority in the movement are. When people are expressing that they aren't feeling safe and aren't treated well, that's not a professional and ethical way to deal with those issues.
My suggestion to other skeptic organizations are – don't hire him. He's not good for your business/cause and he's not good for the movement.

Science Fiction & Fantasy Young Adult
How They Came to Us
Gail is a perfect example of "if at first you don't succeed, try again." Though Kristin actually rejected the first project Gail sent her way, she wrote Gail a very encouraging letter. Four years later, when SOULLESS was ready, Gail remembered that letter and emailed Kristin a query about this exciting manuscript, which already had editor interest.
New York Times bestselling author Gail Carriger writes to cope with being raised in obscurity by an expatriate Brit and an incurable curmudgeon. She escaped small-town life and inadvertently acquired several degrees in Higher Learning. Ms. Carriger then traveled the historic cities of Europe, subsisting entirely on biscuits secreted in her handbag. She resides in the Colonies, surrounded by fantastic shoes, where she insists on tea imported from London.

Squared Tagua Bracelets
Squared Tagua Bracelets
One size fits most Tagua bracelets are a perfect accent to almost any ensemble. Their understated beauty will bring the perfect subtle touch to any night out.
More durable than bone and less porous than antler, Tagua is a wonderful material used to make jewelry and is even used to make reproductions of elephant ivory artifacts. Tagua grows in a club-like sheath and advances in the drying process from a liquid, when just picked, to a gel-like substance sometimes mixed with fruit to make a spread to a hardened nut that is then used for jewelry, buttons, chess pieces and more. This process can take from a few days, to weeks depending on whether the season is wet or dry. The Pottery shop has a large selection of items made from Tagua Seeds such as bracelets and necklaces in a variety of styles. This nut is amazing, and renewable and absolutely beautiful.
Care: To add shine to the necklace use a little coconut or olive oil and gently wipe the surface to restore the necklace to its original condition.

Axed Phillips enters Welsh hall of shame
Welsh Rugby Union chief executive Roger Lewis has lamented the "great besmirch" of Welsh rugby after Mike Phillips joined the list of players attracting unflattering headlines.
Phillips has been indefinitely suspended from squad duties following the publication of a series of damaging photos taken in Cardiff city centre.
The 28-year-old Lions scrum-half is seen being restrained by security staff outside a McDonalds at 3.0am before later being taken away by police, though no arrest was made.
The incident comes soon after Phillips' fellow Wales internationals Gavin Henson and Andy Powell incurred the wrath of their clubs.
While disappointed by such behaviour, Lewis insists they are only isolated incidents that fail to reflect the overall professionalism of the squad.
"There are one or two exceptional things that have happened and one or two individuals who have brought a great besmirch to Welsh rugby," he said.
"They are very much the exceptions -- the majority of players do not behave like this. They are hard-working, dedicated professionals.
"We are now addressing this in a very serious and severe way.
"The action taken -- on discovering what took place and what was published in today's press -- sends out a message that this sort of behaviour, not only do we not condone it but we condemn it.
"The players will be disappointed by Mike's actions but they will be hardened in their resolve to prove they are a dedicated group of players.
"The impact of this announcement will harden the resolve to do better than we have."
Phillips, who had sealed a move to French Top 14 club Bayonne from the Ospreys earlier in the week, will now be questioned by the WRU who want clarification over the events that took place in the early hours of Tuesday morning.
The photos will cause acute embarrassment to the WRU, who only recently have seen Henson and Powell run into disciplinary problems at their clubs.
Henson was suspended for one week in April by Toulon for fighting with two team-mates and one month later Powell was forced out of Wasps in the wake of a fracas with football fans in a London pub.
Powell also came under notice when he was suspended by Wales in February 2010 after driving a golf buggy up the hard shoulder of a motorway whilst over the legal alcohol limit following the Six Nations win over Scotland.

The musician gave an interview in which he criticized do not want to learn Ukrainian.
The leader of the band Vopli Vidopliassova Oleh Skrypka spoke to the students of the School of journalism of the newspaper Ukrainska Pravda. There he made a statement which shocked not only the Russian foreign Ministry, but even Avakov.
"People who can't learn Ukrainian, have a low IQ, so were diagnosed with "idiocy". They must be separated because they are socially dangerous, it is necessary to create a ghetto for them. And we will help them how to help people with problems, on a volunteer basis we sing them Vladimir Central" – said the Violin.
It immediately reacted to the Russian foreign Ministry. The official representative of the foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova wrote on his page.
"This should take the form of stretch marks and hang from Boryspil Airport to downtown:"Welcome participants of Eurovision. Feel in Europe, we are building a ghetto for morons who don't speak Ukrainian. Welcome to Ukraine!" And Kuchma was offended at the title of the book "Ukraine is not Russia". Yes, it is a million times right, and thank God!!!!!"
The heads of the MIA of Ukraine Arsen Avakov reacted to the interview of the Violin.
"Those who bring art to people and demand special. Therefore, today's fake pearl singer Violin about not speaking Ukrainian people is particularly disgusting.
I'm sorry he spoke about a ghetto in UKRAINE – in a country where FREEDOM was and I am sure will remain a major imperative for an enlightened man!" – Avakov wrote.
Himself Oleg Skrypka explained in an interview with the Opinion that he didn't mean it, and his quotes are often distorted. In addition, the Violin noticed that you don't have to treat musicians.
"I believe that everyone needs to do their job. And when people focus their attention on real problems, and in the words of the artists, it means that our society and your society is sick," said the Violin.
We will remind, earlier in Ukraine was a scandal because of an interview with Ivan Dorn, who called Russia a "big brother", and relations between the countries – fight.
Dorn spoke about the "cunning move" Russia Samoilova

If you drive south on Highway 55 toward Columbia, you should look over to the right near the UPS and Clarcor facilities. You can see lots of progress on the construction of the new one million gallon water storage tank. There has been a vast amount of concrete and steel put into place already. The foundation is totally complete and the support structure is about fifty percent complete. It's very exciting to see this project underway after many years in the planning stages and many applications for grants and loans.
It is anticipated that the tank will be complete and will be storing water by late this fall. Customers should then experience better water pressure and improved water quality. The new tank will also provide an additional 200,000 gallons of water storage for the community. The water tank on Summit Drive and the old tank at the Clarcor site will both be dismantled after this new tank is in service.
Another major project is scheduled to begin within the next couple of months. This is replacement of older waterlines on several streets. Bids for the project were opened on March 28th. An attempt is being made to do this construction during the months that school is not in session in order to avoid problems for school buses traveling on these streets.
This project is funded by the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund through Kentucky Infrastructure Authority. The loan amount is $1,218,750.00 and a grant has been awarded in the amount of $656,250.00. The total cost of the project is estimated at $1,875,000.00.
Portions of the following streets have the older waterlines and are scheduled to have those replaced: Broadway, Center Street, Chandler Avenue, Coakley Drive, Eads Street, Eggers Street, Finis Street, First Street, Poplar Street, Gowdy Street, Jan Street, Mayes Court, Meader Street, Oak Street, Parrott Street, Plainview Drive, Robinson Avenue, Skyline Drive, Longview Drive, South Court Street and White's Court.
We know that replacing these lines will cause inconveniences, disruptions, and messes for the residents in these areas. We ask for your patience and understanding. There is no other way to get these lines replaced, but going through this process will improve your water quality and service. The nuisances will be kept to a minimum but cannot be avoided totally. The blacktop on the streets will be returned to the original condition and in many cases an improved condition.
Another project that is underway in the City is the remodeling of the old library building on the corner of Broadway and South Columbia Avenue. When the Taylor County Public Library moved to their new location, this historical building became available for other uses. There is a desire to provide a more easily accessible location for the City Council meetings and the old library building can take care of this. Also, the Economic Development Authority, Chamber of Commerce, Greater Campbellsville United, Campbellsville Renaissance, and Community Ventures Corporation can have office space there.

I wanted to climb up to Słonecznik, but the girls seemed to be to lazy, and leg-hurted, so we went back to Karpacz. That was pretty all we did that day - coz next we drove home to Zielona Góra. When we arrived, it was already night.

For most people, moving in April is no big deal. But when you're a teacher and a student, it is a pain in the butt!
First, there is the issue of leaving my class before the year is over. My principal was nice about it, but doesn't want to tell my parents until the day I leave. And she wants me to have a party with them on my last day. So basically...it looks like I'm throwing my self a going away party with my kids. I hate parties with my kids. It means a huge mess and I can't handle a huge mess and sticky hands in my classroom. I THINK that she has a sub for me after I leave, but as of last Wednesday, nothing was official. So, I'm trying to get things in some sort of order before I go so that my kids are taken care of.
Then, there's my class that I'm taking. I'm just taking one class. It's a class on teaching literacy. It's amazing really. But it is a ton of work. Well, since I'm leaving the class 4 weeks early, I have to turn EVERYTHING in early. That means 3 case study notebooks, 1 class reflection, a personal belief statement on teaching literacy AND my normal weekly homework. All due Thursday. And what am I doing...playing on the computer.
Oh yeah, we have to be out of our apartment by Tuesday and it's a mess.
It's going to be a long week. It's a good thing Anthony's home to clean!

Discussion in 'Lifestyle' started by SpiderOnTheFloor, Apr 9, 2005.
serious critique please...if you don't like it thats fine just tell me why
i like it
Its a good jon on tonal range and B&W conversion. I wouldn't have centered the cat, and would have used either a polarizer or moved to a different angle to avoid the reflections in the window
the main subject is the flower pot...even if there were no reflections i don't think the cat is as interesting as the surrounding window/flower pot...i think i need to get another polarizer (sold the other one because i got rid of the lens it fit on)
I think it's a good shot, however, the cat and reflection are the only dislikes from me.
Without both, it'd be a lot better IMO. But nevertheless, not bad at all!
edit: whoops i thought I was logged on my ae..
Clean the glass so you can see through/reflections more cleanly
good shot
ok...why do you think that?
I'm a fan of reflections, so I like this shot. I don't mind the cat being centered since you have to actually look at the picture a little bit to see it, it's not just like "here a cat in the center of the frame." Not to me anyways, I was drawn to the textures of the pot and the wood. The only thing I might have done differently was maybe level the shot different. It looks like the bottom/ledge the pot is sitting on is level, but the wood seems to be slanting, not sure if it would look better if the wood was a little more straight.
ok good you see it too..i was really wondering if it was just me seeing it as a bit slanted...a crop could fix that right up
i think its a very interesting photo. I like reflection shots but this one gets to be a little distracting. my first focus was the pot and ledge, then the cat, then the reflections.
I like it. I also like the reflection. Good contrast between the foreground and background. Well shot. Good job. 6/10
didnt you post this one over at photoforums as well? Im pretty sure I saw it there.
That is the only flaw I can find in the picture.
use a polarizing lense .. the cat centered draws away form the flower pot it is way to distracting...
i dunno, i like it. i'm not much of a photo critique, but i am very into symbolism within paintings and such. so going from that perspective, could say the cat symbolizes birth, youthful curiousity, but it looks out through a tarnished window onto a world full of death and decay.

Another cool Mini and compact projector has popped out from the factory of Samsung. It's coded as SP-P410M, this Mini LED Compact projector has a good lens to display resolution up to 1290 x 1024 in SXGA mode or smaller resolution at 800 x 600 for SVGA mode with 1000:1 contrast ratio. It's pretty a palm size projector, look at at the lady who easily single-handed carrying the compact projector and we guess it's pretty lightweight, too!
Samsung SP-P410M LED compact projector also has one built-in USB port which you can plug your USB drive or external hard drive in, and it could detect a plethora of file formats such as WMA, MP3, AVI, DivX, PCM, ADPCM, OGG, JPEG, GIF, VOB, AVI, and lots more.
This mini compact projector will hit the Germany and Korea market soon with undisclosed price.

Coming Out Poly: a new book
Coming Out Poly is an upcoming book designed to provide support and encouragement for people in the process of coming out as poly or in a non-monogamous relationship and the people who love them. We feel the best way to understand how coming out really works is to ask you for your experience. We are gathering stories about a wide variety of situations from a group of people who we hope will be diverse with regards to religion, gender, sexual orientation, race, age and economic status.
