Death Note by NisiOisiN6/28/2023 ![]() ![]() However, when criminals start dropping dead one by one, the authorities send the legendary detective L to track down the killer, and a battle of wits, deception and logic ensues. ![]() With the Death Note in hand, Light decides to create his perfect world, without crime or criminals. One day he finds the "Death Note": a notebook from the realm of the Death Gods, with the power to kill people in any way he desires. Yagami Light is an ace student with great prospects, who's bored out of his mind. Nisio debuted in 2002 with the novel The Beheading Cycle (the first in his Zaregoto series), which earned him the 23rd Mephisto Prize at twenty years of age. As Light enacts his plan, he comes up against tough opponents, most notably the world-renowned detective, L. Nisio Isin (Japanese:, Hepburn: Nishio Ishin, born 1981), stylized as NISIOISIN to emphasize the palindrome, is a pseudonymous Japanese novelist, manga author, and screenplay writer. He's joined by the actual owner of the book, the Shinigami Ryuk, a god of death and apple enthusiast who, bored of his existence, passes his book off to a human. Pretty much giving away its powers with the title, the book causes the death of anyone whose name is written in, kickstarting young Light Yagami's plan to rid the world of evil. ![]() The thrilling series dives headfirst into dark territory, telling the story of a high school student who becomes the owner of a supernatural notebook called, you guessed it, the Death Note. ![]()

End of the Road by Jonathan Oliver6/28/2023 ![]() ![]() “It’s so rare to have three clubs this size threatened with relegation, which makes the gravitas, the jeopardy, everything even bigger.”Įverton’s large following of fans in the United States is another reason why NBC decided to anchor coverage from Goodison Park. “It paints a whole different picture of an end of a season. It would be great to have a title race as well, but this actually allows us to focus on relegation, which we so often can’t do,” said NBC Premier League host Rebecca Lowe. This is first time in NBC’s 10 years of carrying the Premier League that it will be on site for a match with relegation implications. Everton could be relegated with a draw and a win by Leicester City, which won the 2016 title. Everton have 33 points, two points clear of the relegation zone, but could find themselves out of England’s top division for the first time in nearly 70 years with a loss and a victory by either Leicester City or Leeds United. NBC’s studio crew and top announcer team will be at Goodison Park for Everton’s match against Bournemouth. ![]() With Manchester City having their title ceremonies last week after winning their third straight Premier League title and fifth in the last six seasons, it’s all about the fight to avoid relegation going into the final match day. LONDON: NBC’s Premier League team is used to covering the pomp and circumstance of the champions lifting the trophy on Championship Sunday. ![]() Enter a Murderer by Ngaio Marsh6/28/2023 ![]() But the first volume was narrated quite differently and I liked that version of Alleyn. Saxon portrays him and then, I guess I will not read many more of his adventures. ![]() I am new to Ngaio Marsh's mysteries and I would like a chance to enjoy getting to know her detective. 2) Alleyn comes off as a detached, offhanded snob, uninterested and contemptuous as he delivers latin quotes, except for a few bouts of manic excitement à la Sherlock Holmes, when he verges on crudeness. During the interrogation scenes, Alleyn, Nigel, Miss Vaughan, Mr. ![]() Saxon also delivers the lines of the many posh suspects and fancy actors in sighs AND sighs as he reads the text in between - is he bored? - I could no longer guess who was speaking and when the dialogue was over. ![]() Unfortunately, the narrator seems to have chosen one single tone of voice for Alleyn: most of his lines are spoken in a jaded sigh. It really reminds me of one of Poirot's adventures but that is not a problem and I will edit this review once I finish reading the book. ![]() God of Ruin by Rina Kent6/28/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() There is Navigation menu in the top-right of every page. ![]() Don't worry though it is actually easy to navigate.

Principles are hierarchical-some are overarching and some are less important-but they all should inform the policies that guide your individual decisions. Mark Costello, the one that inspired me, is gone. Anyway, there is no reason I should post this. Mark was a little too modest to self-promote. There is no reason for me to remind the world about Mark's work. ![]() Please just look at this heartbreaking story called "Murphy's Christmas." The book was published by a small company. But they are not lost on me, how about you? My college teacher, mentor and published author of short stories was Mark Costello whose work was published and lost (sadly for Mark, there was another good fiction writer by the same name!). So much "little" works of "content" get lost (forever?). I am starting a modest thing I call Journola where I remember music and books (short stories too) that have meant a lot. I'm a lawyer that likes to write fiction. I've decided to declutter: to say a temporary goodbye to some influencers and old pals on the internet, but I always like Ray Dalio's books, so here I am. ![]() Oliver sacks awakenings patients6/28/2023 ![]() ![]() Observers of Parkinsonism, before Parkinson himself, had been content to 'spot' various characteristics (in much the same way as one 'spots' trains or planes), and then to arrange these characteristics in classificatory schemes (somewhat as a butterfly-spotter, or would-be entomologist, might arrange his specimens according to colour and shape). But there was a radical difference between Parkinson and these men - perhaps more radical than Parkinson himself allowed or admitted. ![]() It is true, in a sense, that Parkinson had many 'predecessors' (Gaubius, Sauvages, de la Noe, and others) who had observed and classified various 'signs' of Parkinsonism. ![]() But it was Parkinson who first saw every feature and aspect of the illness as a whole, and who presented it as a distinctive human condition or form of behaviour 5. ![]() Detailed descriptions had also appeared in the non-medical literature - as in Aubrey's description of Hobbes's 'Shaking Palsy'. Isolated symptoms and features of Parkinson's disease - the characteristic shaking or tremor, and the characteristic hurrying or festination of gait and speech - had been described by physicians back to the time of Galen. In 1817, Dr James Parkinson, a London physician, published his famous Essay on the Shaking Palsy, in which he portrayed, with a vividness and insight that have never been surpassed, the common, important, and singular condition we now know as Parkinson's disease. ![]() Crystabelle by Carré White6/27/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() It's ill-advised to fall in love with one of the customers.
