Cameron Diaz's generous Christmas
Cameron Diaz splashed out thousands of pounds on a ring for boyfriend Justin Timberlake at Christmas.The screen beauty reportedly bought the heartthrob singer a £4,000 ring from top Beverly Hills store Neiman Marcus to celebrate the festive season.
But the 32-year-old actress didn't stop at gifts for Justin, and treated herself to a £355 pair of shoes and a pair of boots for £200.
Last year, Cameron revealed Justin showers her with gifts everyday - to make her feel special.
The sexy star admitted she needs proof her man really loves her and enjoys receiving regular romantic gestures, including presents and phone calls.
She said: "It's important that someone makes you feel they're thinking of you or that you make them feel a certain way.
"And it's great if they give you something, like a memento, that says, 'You're special to me', or if they ring you with a romantic message."
She added: "It only takes a little thought, to pick up the phone and say, 'You know what? You make me feel good'. You can't beat that."

You are at: NWS Home » SRH Home » WFO Mobile Home » Tropical Weather Page » What to Do
Frequently listen to radio, TV (local and cable) and NOAA Weather Radio for official bulletins of the storm's progress.
Fuel and service family vehicles.
Inspect and secure mobile home tie-downs.
Prepare to cover all window and door openings with shutters or other shielding materials.
Check batteries and stock up on canned food, first aid supplies, drinking water and medications.
Prepare to bring inside lawn furniture and other loose, light-weight objects, such as garbage cans, garden tools, etc.
Have an extra supply of cash.
Closely monitor radio, TV (local and cable) and NOAA Weather Radio for official bulletins.
Complete preparation activities, such as putting up storm shutters, storing loose objects, etc.
Follow instructions issued by local officials. Leave IMMEDIATELY if told to do so!
If evacuating, leave early and in daylight (if possible). Stay with friends or relatives, at a low-rise inland hotel/motel or (last resort) go to a predesignated public shelter outside a flood zone.
Leave mobile homes.
Notify neighbors and family members outside the warned area of your evacuation plans.
Take your pet with you if at all possible. If not possible, put food and water out for a pet. Most public health regulations do not allow pets in public shelters.
Only stay in a home if you have NOT been ordered to leave. Stay inside a well constructed building. Examine the building and plan in advance what you will do if winds become strong. Strong winds can produce structure failure and debris that turns into deadly missiles.
Turn refrigerator to maximum cold and open only when necessary.
Turn off utilities if told by authorities.
Turn off propane tanks.
Unplug small appliances.
Fill bathtub and large containers with water for sanitary purposes.
Stay away from windows and doors even if they are covered. Take refuge in a small interior room, closet or hallway.
Close all interior doors. Secure and brace external doors.
If you are in a 2-story house, go to an interior first floor room, such as bathroom or closet.
If you are in a multiple-story building and away from the water, go to the first or second floor and take refuge in the hall or other interior room (away from windows).
Lie on the floor under a table or another sturdy object
Live in a mobile home (unsafe in high winds, no matter how well fastened to the ground)
Live on the coastline, an offshore island, or near a river or a flood plain
Live in a high-rise (Hurricane winds are stronger at higher elevations)
Keep listening to radio, TV (local or cable) and NOAA Weather Radio.
Wait until an area is declared safe before entering.
Roads may be closed for your protection. If you come upon a barricade or a flooded road, turn around and go another way!
Avoid weakened bridges and washed out roads. Do not drive into flooded areas!
Stay on firm ground. Moving water of only 6 inches deep can sweep you off your feet. Standing water may be electricity charged from underground or downed power lines.
Check gas, water, and electrical lines and appliances for damage.
Do not drink or prepare food with tap water until you are certain it is not contaminated.
Avoid using candles and other open flames indoors. Use a flashlight to inspect for damage.
Use the telephone to report life-threatening emergencies only.
Be especially cautious if using a chainsaw to cut fallen trees.

Re: pintle/gudgeon supplier?
That looks fantastic John,
I'm jealous of the fact that you had so much time - on the other hand I did sail last year
That looks like a good system with the bilge pump. Currently I have just a non-automatic electric pump that's mounted up above with a hose going down. Yep the bilge is surprisingly deep. Last winter I got the wet dry vac hose down there and sucked out 30 years worth of dropped hardware.
How hard was it to remove the handrails? I assume they're through bolted all the way through to the interior rails right? How well were things sealed up there?
How long did the paint job take overall? My paint job wasn't done great to begin with by the P.O. (didn't remove deck hardware) and is probably 5-8 years old by now
So as for my pintle and gudgeons the yard, a one man operation, had originally suggested a delrin shim exactly as you did but changed his mind after closer inspection. I'm willing to trust him on that. So we're getting pintles and gudgeons from Jeremy Rogers in England, the original Contessa builder whose back up and running doing refurbs, building Contessa 32's and supplying old 26 parts (although not everything matches between the british and canadian versions).
I'll be going to the boat and talking to the yard tomorrow about the rudder and I think I'll just put in the 3rd (which also means moving the upper one as I assume you did). What made you decide to do it? I considered it because I'd seen it suggested online and I know J.J. Taylor added the 3rd in the 80's when they did their minor redesign.
My other main project this year is a total replacement of the head which I'll be doing myself and either a repitch of my 2-blade prop (hopefully) or perhaps a new 3 blade. I know the yanmar should net me more than 3.5 knots. I'm also quoting a new mainsail and will probably just pull the trigger on that (I'm avoiding the headsail because I don't want to commit hank-on or consider roller furling yet. Personally I love the hank-on simplicity right now)
Anyway, good to hear from you. I'll post back about my pintle gudgeon experience when it's over.

Rider record book getting rewritten
The Rider Raiders did more than earn a trip to the state tournament when they won the Region I-4A tournament last week.
They also set a school record for victories with 27, breaking the mark of 26 set in 2003 and 2006.
When the Raiders meet Mount Pleasant in the UIL Class 4A semifinals at 4 p.m. Friday in Georgetown they'll be trying to extend that record. And they'll be trying to be the fourth Rider boys team to qualify for the final, joining the 2000 and 2007 champs and the 2006 runner-up.
The Raiders had matched the 2006 finalists for second-most shutouts with 22 before the regional tournament, and then broke the previous record of 23 set by the 2003 state semifinalists by posting a pair of thrilling 1-0 shutouts at Memorial Stadium.
They'll try to expand on that record, too, in Georgetown.
It's also rare — the second time this century — for the Raiders to not have a tie on their record. The last Rider club to win or lose each game was in 2007 when the state champs had a 23-0 record.
n n n
Rider senior goalkeeper Drake Szczepinski obviously is one of the major reasons for all the shutouts.
Szczepinski received a lot of attention for his regional-saving penalty-kick stop last week and established himself as an elite goalkeeper.
But he believes his team can accomplish more.
"This is our goal from the beginning to make it to the final four, but nobody is satisfied just yet," Szczepinski said. "We want to go as far as we can and win state."
Szczepinski doesn't plan to have a ball in the net behind him at any time. But he believes he knows how to handle it, should his team need to win a match 2-1.
"A goalie has to be mentally prepared," he said. "If they score on you then you just have to realize the mistake you made. I haven't allowed many goals so I haven't had to worry about it too much. The goals I do let in I realize what I did do wrong and realize what I can correct and not hold my head down."
Szczepinski has made so few mistakes that not even his coach recalled the first PK of the season going in against him against Keller in the Winter Cup.
The PK everyone is going to remember was Szczepinski's stellar stop against Del Valle, a team that was a definite threat to win it all itself.
Szczepinski had just one returning defender — Jonathon Munoz — in front of him when the year started. But he's seen Brandon Williams, Nic Novak, Jacob Cobb and Nathan Van De Vyvere prove to be a formidable back line.
"We have to always have each other's backs," said Novak, a senior. "We've been out their busting our butts trying to make sure we keep those shutouts coming."
"I'll tell my defenders to press on them as soon as they get the ball, and they know my weaknesses and shots I prefer," Szczepinski said.
His preference now is for gold and hopefully two more shutouts.
"Our team chemistry has to be good and we have to make shots and take shots," he said. "We can't let them get the ball and receive it and turn their heads and do something dangerous with it. We have to put pressure on them and we have to work together. I'm looking forward to it."
n n n
Rider coach Josh Hill said this wasn't a week where he had to worry about his team missing days of school. Not with a chance to be heroes on campus.
"It's just the nature of teenage boys, they like the attention," Hill said. "If there was ever a week they were going to miss school it wasn't going to be this one. They're pretty excited."
"Everybody is pretty stoked that we won," Szczepinski said.
"I didn't even know what to think," Novak said. "We were getting so much love and respect from everybody, even from Old High. Just everybody in town was showing us love and support, which is really good.
"I just realized (Monday) that, yeah, we're going to state. It kicked in like, yeah, we're doing something. It's exciting."
"Everybody is happy and congratulating us and it feels good," Rider sophomore midfielder Marcos Barron said. "It's still giving me the chills a little bit."

Creating an updated OSX server install disc
This question isn't OSX server specific but my application is, so I decided to post here.
I just received a 2006 Xserve and in the process of setting it up. The only spare copy of OSX server I have is 10.5.0. I remember having several issues with this installer due to bugs in the x.x.0 version. The only disc I have is 10.5.0. I thought there was a way to create a installer disc/drive with the updates included, but I'm having trouble searching for the solution online. Anyone have a quick and dirty tutorial, or have a link to one? Any help would be appreciated.

Use System Image Utility, (SIU), to create a new installer with all relevant updates and packages. SIU is included with OS X Server. You can copy it over to a client machine to run it as long as the OS X versions are the same, i.e., OS X 10.6.x SIU must be run from OS X 10.6.x client or server.
First, download all the updates and other packages you want to include in the new installer. Insert Install DVD and execute SIU from any machine that is 10.5 or later. The DVD should be automatically recognized as a source. Click on the source and choose "Customize" near the bottom. From the Actions Library, add "Add Packages and Post install scripts " to the workflow. Drag all your new packages to this pane and Run it. In the resulting NBI folder you'll find a netinstall.dmg file. Burn that to disk, flash drive, or whatever other media you choose. It's a bootable image that contains all the updates and packages you included. I was using OS 10.8.3 as reference for these instructions. It may be slightly different on earlier versions but this will give you the basic idea. rlk |

Thanks, that's what I was looking for. I knew there was a way to do it, I just haven't messed with boot images since back in the 10.4 days. I'm running 10.6 server on my mac mini and can use that to build the 10.5 server boot image. It should work fine for my purposes. I'll most likely burn a disc and keep it with my original 10.5.0 server disc. Thanks again.

With Gravity Rush releasing on June 12th, I wanted to share how the artwork of this game came together as well as how the style of "Bande Dessinee" influenced the title's art direction.
Gravity Rush incorporates the theme of Bande Dessinee (BD), a popular Franco-Belgian comic book art style. There are various types of BD style and they can be perceived in many ways. We first approached an element of BD we thought would fit well into the pre-existing game art. One of the differences between realistic expression and schematic expression represented by BD is that BD exaggerates the information that author wants to convey to the audience. By doing so, it conveys more of the accurate information that the author wants to be recognized.
While considering the gravity mechanic in the game, we brainstormed with these elements in mind. If a player can move around freely, the level should not only be big horizontally, but also vertically. Therefore, we designed the city with multiple levels of layers and structures.
PS Vita's gravity-bending adventure, Gravity Rush, hits stores on June 12. And today I'm pleased to announce that we'll be offering exclusive access to an array of downloadable content when you pre-order the title. Pre-order Gravity Rush at any of our participating retailers and you'll receive the Military DLC Pack featuring two extra side missions, two new challenge missions and a military-themed costume for Kat. Read on for a full description of what the Military DLC Pack has to offer.
Extra Missions:
Once you complete Episode 17 of the main story, you'll unlock the new "Game Rules" side mission. In this mission, Kat has been asked by Commander Yuri to train as a military officer. As she trains with her rival, Seawasp, a message comes in saying that the Nevi have appeared and it is up to you to defeat them. After you clear this mission, you'll receive Kat's unique military costume!
Based on the sheer number of questions we get about Gravity Rush, it's clearly one of the most-anticipated PS Vita games coming along in the next few months. Featuring stunning, cel-shaded visuals, Vita-tailored controls, and gravity-based gameplay, it's no wonder that reviewers across the Pacific have awarded the game (known as "Gravity Daze" in Japan) high marks.
So when the game's creators dropped into San Francisco last week for Game Developers Conference, I jumped at the chance to speak with them.
In this conversation (shared with IGN's Ryan Clements – look for his story soon at Vita.IGN.com), Game Director Keiichiro Toyama and Art Director Yoshiaki Yamaguchi talk about the game's original platform (not PS Vita!), why they avoided an overly Japanese aesthetic, and the surprising inspiration for its unique gravity-based gameplay.
This week we welcome esteemed fighting game guru Seth Killian to the show. Capcom's Special Combat Advisor digs deep into Street Fighter x Tekken, including exclusive characters for PS3 and PS Vita, how characters are picked for the game, the very origins of Street Fighter, and how he made the transition from Illini Philosophy professor to International Street Fighter Ambassador. That actually happened. We also share first impressions of Journey and Mass Effect 3, as well as the most-Platinum-ed games in the history of PSN. And of course, we reveal what's coming to the PlayStation Store next week. Prepare your auditory canal – it's all on this week's PlayStation Blogcast!
Subscription Links:
A lot of you have been wondering about a North American release date for Gravity Rush on PS Vita, which released to great response in Japan on February 9th under the name "Gravity Daze." Today, we're pleased to confirm that Gravity Rush will come to PS Vita in North America on June 12th, as both a digital release on PlayStation Store and a game card at retailers nationwide.
If you're not yet familiar with this epic action-adventure game, read on for a quick overview. In the world of Gravity Rush, a futuristic world is under attack from unknown forces: So-called "gravity storms" have begun appearing in the sky, wreaking havoc while strange creatures terrorize the population. Amidst the mayhem, a young girl named Kat wakes up with a phenomenal new ability to control gravity.
Greetings! As you've seen lately, we've released some additional information here and there on Gravity Rush and I wanted to give you all a bit more info on this PS Vita exclusive.
You'll be assuming the role of our cel-shaded heroine, who wakes in a strange city with no memory of how she got there. While exploring the town, she encounters a black cat (clever, huh?), who grants her the ability to control the gravity around her.
From there, the story unfolds across multiple chapters as Kat uses her newfound powers to not only help a city that's (literally) breaking apart, but to figure out the mystery of her past and what (or who) has brought her here. Using the PS Vita, you'll be able to release Kat from gravity's hold and shift her center of gravity to completely change her perspective and gain access to previously unseen areas of the stages you play in. Whether "falling" towards the side of a tower or virtually any visible surface, Kat can be brought back to a floating state with a simple trigger pull, or be forced back to following the laws of real-world gravity by deactivating her skill, dropping her down to the ground without a scratch. I think you can see how this will give a whole new meaning to the term "world exploration."

"Don't you worry about me! I'm a master of martial arts and I'm also packin' some serious heat! And as soon as Majin Buu pops his head outta that hole, he'll be eatin' a lead salad!" |
Mr. Satan (ミスター・サタン, Misutā Satan; lit. "Mister Satan"), also known as Hercule or Hercule Satan in the FUNimation dub, is a character in the manga Dragon Ball, and the anime series Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball GT. His real name is Mark.[2][3]
His name is Mr. Satan in the original Japanese media, however, he is referred to as Hercule in FUNimation's English dub (though he retains his original name in unedited releases), as well as Viz Media's English versions of the manga. This is attributed to the typical process in Dragon Ball (and shōnen in general) of stripping Judeo-Christian references for the sensitivities of Western audiences. "Hercule" originates from Hercules, the Greek hero who was the son of Zeus in mythology.
In the U.S. edition of Shonen Jump, it is explained that Hercule is the real name of the character while Mr. Satan was his stage name. This was later contradicted in the Super Exciting Guide: Character Volume and again in Dragon Ball Full Color Androids Saga volume 5, where interviews reveal that Akira Toriyama gave Mr. Satan a stage name reminiscent of a pro grappler and that his real name is Mark (マーク, Maaku),[2][3] which a rough anagram of Akuma, which means "Devil" or "Demon" in Japanese (keeping in line with his family's naming scheme). Since the region where Satan lives does not split up names into given names and family names, his name is simply "Mark".[3]
Mr. Satan enjoys eating high class steak, golf, auctions, and riding high class cars (Satan model).[2] He is depicted multiple times (in both the anime and movies) dining on spaghetti with meatballs. He has a car with the numbers "666" on the side; a clear reference to 666 being the number of the devil, connecting back to Mr. Satan's name reference.
During the Dragon Ball Z time period, Mr. Satan is the reigning World Martial Arts Champion, a title won fairly by beating other normal earthlings in a time when Goku and other powerful fighters were battling on Namek and later against the Androids.[7] During the time of the Cell Games, Mr. Satan was already rich and famous, but also an egomaniac. He boasted endlessly on television about his strength, and that he was the "best fighter in the world." In the eyes of characters who know otherwise, he is considered to be a showboating blowhard. When the Z Fighters arrives on the scene starting with the Cell Games, he starts a pattern of claiming them to be his disciples, which, while preserving his status and self-serving ego, has produced good results in the past. Mr. Satan is quite an unrepentant lech whose head is easily turned by a pretty face, and he despicably uses his fame as "the Hero who defeated Cell" to seduce and sleep with multiple women after Videl's mother left, causing a rift between him and his daughter Videl. He is very protective of his daughter Videl however, and would not allow her to hang out at any boy's house unless they are tougher than him (which he might consider).
In spite of showing many signs of greed and cowardice, Mr. Satan is still a fundamentally honorable, decent, sensitive and kind-hearted man. He genuinely cares about protecting the innocent and fighting for justice to the best of his abilities, and is prone to violent and righteous anger when faced with the abuse of helpless innocents by villains. He shows moments of great courage when his family and friends are threatened by evil. Mr. Satan's true colors are foreshadowed when he risks his life to get Android 16's head near Gohan, which leads to Gohan's transformation to Super Saiyan 2. In the Majin Buu Saga, Mr. Satan is revealed to be a fundamentally good man as opposed to the arrogant showboat persona he exhibits, and his bravery and kindness towards the good Majin Buu play a major role in Kid Buu's defeat at the end of the Kid Buu Saga. Prominently, he has saved the lives of Bee, Vegeta, and even Majin Buu (recognizing that Majin Buu was used in his innocence by Babidi, he tearfully begged Vegeta to spare his life as he laid helpless after being beaten by Kid Buu, and was ready to risk death to protect him; Mr. Satan's love for his friend moved Goku enough to join in his defense, allowing the formerly evil monster to start a new life as a hero and benefactor to society). Mr. Satan's skill as an orator came into good use by the series' end. Without the adoration and support of his legions of followers, the Z Fighters would never have been able to raise the Super Spirit Bomb and defeat Kid Buu. By the end of Dragon Ball Z, Goku and his friends come to see the good in Mr. Satan and decide that he is a noble hero.
Early life
When Mark was young, he attended a fighting dojo called "Satan Castle." Through a combination of considerable power and good luck (his rival fighting opponent would get food poisoning, for instance), he quickly became world champion and was called "Mr. Satan" after the name of his dojo. One day when they were on tour, at a bar in South City, Satan and his martial arts master made the mistake of making fun of Mercenary Tao's hairstyle. As a result, Mr. Satan was heavily injured while his master was killed. From then on, Mr. Satan solemnly swore never to fight anyone whose true identity he did not know, or anyone who seemed crazy strong.[7]
His daughter Videl was born in Age 756. Videl's mother left Mr. Satan and their daughter Videl at one point, leaving only the two of them in their family.[7] But they have got loads of servants.[7] Mr. Satan is very protective of his daughter, especially in respect to boys, only allowing her to have a boyfriend if he was stronger than him.
24th World Martial Arts Tournament
In anime-exclusive flashbacks of the previous 24th World Martial Arts Tournament, Mr. Satan is briefly seen fighting Spopovich (back when he was a normal human) in the tournament's first-round match. It is here that one can easily see Mr. Satan's capabilities in comparison to that of other "normal" (human) martial artists (and that Mr. Satan does have some martial ability indeed, enabling him to defeat earthling opponents with less skill and/or power level than him). He easily defeats Spopovich and goes on to fight and defeat Jewel in that tournament's final-match, winning the 24th World Martial Arts Tournament. None of the Z Fighters fought in this tournament, allowing Mr. Satan to win it easily and fairly.[7]
Taking on Cell
After hearing Perfect Cell's announcement of the Cell Games, Mr. Satan announces to the world that he will enter the tournament and defeat Cell. A few days before the games begin, Mr. Satan pleases a huge crowd of fans by punching through a bus and ripping a large book in half. Satan was actually rich at this point, so the car he rode in to the Cell Games Arena had a chauffeur.[3] He was apparently selling some kind of "Satan goods", and they were quite profitable.[3] At ringside, Goku tries several times to warn Mr. Satan against confronting Cell, but the World Champion believes he is more than equal to the task of taking down the deadly bio-android. Throughout the Cell Games, Mr. Satan is convinced that Cell is a mere trickster, having never seen ki attacks before and believing them to be mere light shows. Mr. Satan (and his top students Caroni and Pirozhki as well, in the anime) face Perfect Cell and lose quickly in embarrassing fashion. The ZTV reporter on-hand to chronicle the Cell Games repeatedly ridicules Goku and the other Z Fighters, firmly believing (along with most of the world) that Mr. Satan is the only one who stands a chance of triumphing over Cell. After showing off his strength by destroying fourteen out of fifteen tiles, Mr. Satan attacks Cell with his Dynamite Kick, but Cell launches him from the ring with a single effortless flick of his hand, at which point Goku steps in and the tournament commences.
Claiming that he simply slipped out of the ring, Mr. Satan (and his pupils) sit out the rest of the Cell Games, watching Goku, and subsequently Gohan, fight Perfect Cell. Mr. Satan is repeatedly questioned by Jimmy Firecracker of the television crew about returning to the ring to face Cell again, but each time the World Martial Arts Champion insists he is suffering from agonizing stomach pains that are preventing him from a rematch.
Although Mr. Satan cowers in fear for much of the time, he does play a pivotal role in Gohan's eventual victory over Cell. After Cell destroys Android 16's body, the severed head of 16 lands near the area where Mr. Satan and the TV crew are hiding. The still functioning head of 16 implores them to carry him over to Gohan. Putting aside his fear (and looking to save face in front of the news crew), Mr. Satan agrees to bring the head of Android 16 to Gohan. This sets into motion the sequence of events ultimately responsible for unleashing Gohan's hidden power.
Near the end of the Cell Game, the television equipment is destroyed and the conclusion, in which Gohan (with help from Vegeta) finally destroys Cell with a Kamehameha Wave, is not broadcast to the global audience. The television crew, having sought shelter from the devastating ki attacks, does not witness Cell's demise.
After the Z Fighters depart, Mr. Satan convinces Jimmy and everyone else that Gohan was beaten and that he defeated Cell single-handedly with a vicious karate chop. Despite some initial skepticism at these claims, the gullible masses are quickly convinced that Mr. Satan indeed defeated Cell and he becomes the world's new hero and hottest celebrity.
The next World Tournament
Seven years after Cell's defeat, Mr. Satan has become increasingly rich and famous. Videl bitterly relates to Gohan that he has become a womanizer who uses his fame as a champion to sleep around with woman after woman. She also confides in Gohan that her father, once an accomplished martial artist, is now living solely off his reputation and no longer keeps up with his training. Satan is shown in several moments, including for a few seconds training his pupils, and cowering away in his home to avoid a gang of thugs, even as they take advantage in a fight against his daughter. Videl initially scoffs at any suggestion that her father is not all that he claims to be though, over time, she comes to see the truth and wishes somebody would beat him at the next World Martial Arts Tournament so that Satan could be taught a lesson in humility and respect.
As reigning World Champion, Mr. Satan is automatically entered into the World Martial Arts Tournament (aka: Strongest Under the Heavens) and is dismayed to see the Super Saiyans (The "Golden Fighters") there, remembering them from the Cell Games. Satan rides out the tournament in fear of being exposed as a fraud, knowing full well that he does not stand a chance against Goku and his friends. After the Junior Division Final in which Trunks defeats Goten, Mr. Satan is set to fight an exhibition match with Trunks. Satan asks Trunks to only lightly tap him on his face, however by even a light tap, Trunks knocks him out of the ring. The audience believes it was all for show and that Mr. Satan let the Junior Champ win (though he was knocked against a wall and brutally injured his nose and is seen grieving over the pain in private shortly afterward).
The ancient evil, Majin Buu
After the World Martial Arts Tournament was interrupted by Spopovich and Yamu's attacking Gohan, Mr. Satan is set to fight in a Battle Royal against Android 18, Killa, Jewel, and Mighty Mask. Soon, Killa and Jewel are eliminated, and Android 18 reveals Mighty Mask's true identity (Trunks and Goten). Android 18, who does not want the fame of winning, agrees to throw the final if Satan pays her 20,000,000 Zeni (double the prize money).
At one point in an anime-exclusive filler, Mr. Satan was in the shower room shortly after his "win" against Android 18, thinking about what had happened in regards to most of the audience being blown away. However, some Paparazzis burst in and started questioning him about his win against Android 18, and he claims to "not hide anything from the fans", and while laughing, accidentally drops his towel in front of everyone, causing the Paparazzis to take pictures of the exposure. Another point in another anime-exclusive filler, he foolishly tries to fly, only to land on and hurt his weak point: his nose (and later tries to cover up his behavior to a bunch of fangirls walking in on him). Later, when Vegeta (now a Majin) attacks the crowd in order for Goku to fight him, Mr. Satan taunts Vegeta, but becomes terrified when Vegeta tells him to keep quiet. After this, Babidi teleports Vegeta, Goku and the others to the desert.
Befriending the monster
After Majin Buu kills Babidi and starts terrorizing the Earth, Mr. Satan is sent to his house to kill the monster. Mr. Satan tried to do so by giving Buu poisonous chocolates and a bomb disguised as a video game. These attempts prove so ineffectual that Buu does not even register them as murderous in nature. The cunning Satan then tricks Majin Buu into posing for a photo, having him lie on his belly while Satan strikes a pose, and then becomes Majin Buu's servant. While Mr. Satan plans to use a super explosive to try and kill Majin Buu, Majin Buu returns early from a killing spree with a hurt puppy, showing signs of good in him. Mr. Satan brings this good to the surface by helping Majin Buu heal the puppy and convincing him kindly that killing is wrong. Mr. Satan and Majin Buu then form a true friendship, and name the puppy Bee.
"If I got this guy to change his ways, then I truly have saved the world." |
Their happiness is short lived when Bee is shot (by a bullet) and Buu along with Mr. Satan, are attacked by two evil humans, the killer thug Van Zant and his cohort Smitty (both unnamed in the original Japanese, in which Smitty refers to Van Zant as "Young Master"), with rocket launchers. Mr. Satan bravely stands against them, hitting Smitty with a rock and confronting the ringleader (Van Zant) who is reaching for his weapon. Mr. Satan fearlessly dares the thug to try it (stating "Go ahead, pick it up!"). The thug then grabs his weapon, but is immediately assaulted by Mr. Satan (who shouts, "Now It's Your Turn!"), kicking the weapon out of the thug's hands and delivers a furious beating on him for cold-bloodedly shooting Bee (and attempting to kill both him and Buu). He ends the assault with a final kick, sending the punk tumbling off the cliff (Van Zant survives, however), defeating him. After this, a triumphant Mr. Satan calls Van Zant a "Heartless Monster!", and finally proves himself to be a true "hero" (it should be noted that this is one of the few fights where Mr. Satan "completely" dominates his opponent; it also shows that given the right motivation, Mr. Satan is capable of defeating even "armed" opponents when angered).
Majin Buu then heals Bee's wound (saving its life) and all is well (for the moment). Later while Mr. Satan is preparing dinner, he is confronted by Van Zant who holds him at gun point and he prepares to kill "The World's Hero". Mr. Satan tries to use high-speed movement to evade & attack him, but is shot in cold blood, leading to the emergence of the greater evil within Majin Buu.
After Mr. Satan is shot by Van Zant, Majin Buu is torn between the promise he made and the anger he holds. He manages to heal Mr. Satan and the dog, but loses control and tells Mr. Satan to flee before it is too late. He then involuntarily spits out the bulk of his power in the form of an evil, sickly antithesis of himself, which kills Van Zant mercilessly by blasting him, along with a cluster of mountains. After being pummeled badly by the Evil Buu, the good but weaker form, in an act of desperation, attempts to turn the Evil Buu into an edible form using his Antenna Beam. However, Evil Buu reverses the attack by blowing the beam away, emerging as the victor before devouring the good Majin Buu and transforming into Super Buu. Super Buu then brutally kills Smitty (going into his mouth and causing him to expand until he violently explodes), while Mr. Satan and Bee are forced to watch in horror.
The new Buu
Super Buu is almost pure evil, but he still acknowledges Mr. Satan to a degree strong enough that he refuses to harm him, since he possesses the memories of Majin Buu. Obvious examples are as follows:
- When Super Buu looks down at Mr. Satan, he could have easily killed him, but instead, he merely spoke his name and left to go up to the Guardian's lookout.
- When the new Super Buu pulls off his Human Extinction Attack, Mr. Satan is one of the three Earthlings present on the ground to survive (the others being Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu), not because he is skilled enough to avoid it, but because Super Buu simply does not target him.
- Mr. Satan's daughter, Videl, also causes Super Buu to make an agreement allowing Gotenks an hour to prepare for fighting, as Piccolo tells Super Buu that Videl is Mr. Satan's daughter. Super Buu nearly weeps after hearing this, as he had been about to kill Videl at the time.
During the battle against Super Buu, Mr. Satan is angered to the point that he screams "I hereby terminate our friendship, Majin Buu!" and gets out a 45-Caliber gun. In one hilarious moment, when Super Buu fires a Finger Beam to kill Dende, Mr. Satan shoots at it and it explodes, when in reality Tien intervened and countered it with his Tri-Beam technique. When Super Buu prepares another one (and a much more powerful one, one which Tien had no method of nullifying), Mr. Satan once again starts shooting at Super Buu, and Super Buu is sliced in half, when in reality Goku returned and fired a Destructo Disk at him.
Mr. Satan, along with Dende and Bee, then sits out the rest of the battle and sees Vegito pound Super Buu around. When Super Buu absorbs Vegito, Mr. Satan and Dende tail him around the city as he eats countless cakes and sweets. Ultimately, when Super Buu reverts to Kid Buu, Satan decides to attempt to fight him, but Dende advises him otherwise. Ultimately, when Kid Buu finally succeeds in destroying the Earth, Mr. Satan, Dende and Bee are rescued by Goku, Vegeta and Kibito Kai at the last minute via Kibito Kai's Instantaneous Movement to the Sacred World of the Kais. At first, Satan believes it all to be a dream, but changes his mind when he is unable to fly, and also when Kid Buu shows up and resumes the battle against Goku and Vegeta.
The final battle
During the battle, Mr. Satan becomes angered to the point that he challenges Kid Buu to a futile duel (causing a recovering Goku to say, "Please, not him! What did I ever do to deserve this?!"). Mr. Satan punches and kicks Kid Buu rapidly, but these futile efforts do not even faze the Majin. Just when Kid Buu is about to kill Mr. Satan, he hesitates, and starts to scream loudly, holding his head in agony, and then spits out a blue stone that explodes into an unconscious Majin Buu, who turned out to be what was stopping Kid Buu from harming Mr. Satan. Believing Majin Buu to have sacrificed himself to save him one last time, Mr. Satan, with tears dripping from his eyes, challenges Kid Buu with all his might. Just as Kid Buu is about to finish him, Majin Buu intervenes and fights Kid Buu alone while Mr. Satan cheers him on.
Mr. Satan also participates in convincing the people of the newly restored Earth to give their energy to Goku's Super Spirit Bomb, since they refused to listen to Vegeta and Goku (except for Goku and Vegeta's friends and family, of course). He becomes genuinely angry that the people of Earth were refusing to believe and help the one chance they had that would save them from Kid Buu once and for all. The people end up believing they were giving their energies to him when instead, it supplies to the Spirit Bomb making it a lot bigger than before, but Kid Buu cunningly stands beside Vegeta's battered body.
When Goku hesitates to throw the Spirit Bomb at Kid Buu, Majin Buu holds Kid Buu down while Mr. Satan carries Vegeta's limp body aside. The Spirit Bomb destroys Kid Buu after Goku goes Super Saiyan, and Majin Buu and Satan make it back to Earth with Goku, Vegeta, Dende and the Kais, now accepted as two new Z Warriors, and has Majin Buu live with him, now named Mister Buu.
After Buu's defeat
Mr. Satan is seen once again after a few days, having been invited to a great party at Capsule Corporation, where he drinks and plays cards with Yamcha and Master Roshi. After spending time on the sidelines watching with Dende, he also seems to have formed a friendship with him, asking about Dende's job as Guardian of Earth. He also seems to forget his earlier ambitions and attempts to learn how to fly, which means he never masters it.
Two years later, in Dragon Ball: Yo! Son Goku and His Friends Return!!, he himself holds a party to celebrate the victory over Kid Buu and the opening of his new hotel, with more guests than Bulma's party. While Mr. Satan is hounded by the press about how he defeated Kid Buu, the party is interrupted by the arrival of Tarble (Vegeta's long-lost estranged younger brother), and Abo and Cado (two former soldiers of the long-deceased intergalactic tyrant Frieza). In the ensuing battle, Mr. Satan's hotel is destroyed, devastating him, but he is consoled by Videl.
Ten years later, Mr. Satan is still the World Martial Arts Champion, due to he and Mr. Buu cheating the public by having Mr. Buu defeat the participants and then lose to Mr. Satan on purpose in the finals, although he promises Buu that one day he will let him win. At the start of the next one, Mr. Satan is greeted by Goku, Goten, Trunks, Vegeta, and Pan (Gohan and Videl's daughter). Mr. Satan is only seen hugging his granddaughter, wanting to spoil her sick, and worrying himself sick when he sees Pan go up against a hulking fighter called Wild Tiger. Mr. Satan briefly panics when he learns that Goku, Vegeta and their children will participate, but Goku promises him that whoever makes it to the final will lose to him on purpose to maintain his image (and avoid media pressure).
When Goku departs with a boy named Uub, Mr. Satan and Mr. Buu watch their friend leave.
Baby's invasion
During the war against Baby, Mr. Satan goes along with Majin Buu, Uub and Pan to New Planet Plant (New Planet Tuffle) to put up a stand against Baby Vegeta until Goku arrives again. After Trunks, Goten and Gohan are freed from Baby's control, Mr. Satan helps out to the best of his abilities to fight against Baby Vegeta with all the free Z Warriors, and at one point when thinking Baby had killed Pan, he stood up to Baby in anger and prepared to fight him personally, until he found out Goku had rescued her. However they have a rough battle until Uub who had tricked Baby Vegeta (now controlling a Golden Great Ape Baby Vegeta) into eating him earlier inflated his stomach, causing him great pain and reducing his strength. He is present when Goku finally forces Baby out of Vegeta and then blasts him into the sun as he tries to escape on a spaceship.
Since Baby used the Black Star Dragon Balls to create the new Planet Plant, the Earth was now in danger once again of exploding from using them. Goku and company knew they would need to evacuate everyone from Earth to the new Planet Tuffle for safety, but they also knew most of the people of Earth would not believe them if Goku or his friends told them the situation, but he knew they would believe Mr. Satan, since they still believe he defeated Cell quite a few years ago. They had Mr. Satan announce to everyone on Earth that the planet was going to explode, and that they would need to go with his officials for proper transportation. Everyone listened to him (except a few skeptics, who Vegeta simply knocked out and threw in with the luggage) and went to Planet Tuffle for safety via Goku's or Kibito Kai's instant transmission, or King Furry's ship transportation before the Earth exploded.
The ultimate android Super 17, and the Shadow Dragons
When the dead are brought back from Hell in Age 790, Mr. Satan is shown running away from members of the Red Ribbon Army who are defeated by Pan.
Mr. Satan is later seen watching the final battle against Omega Shenron. In Age 889, there is a statue of Mr. Satan at the 64th World Martial Arts Tournament.
Dragon Ball Online
In the background story of the computer game Dragon Ball Online, Mr. Satan announces his retirement from the world of martial arts in Age 793. His official reason for retiring is to give the next generation a chance. However, the truth is that it became impossible for him to continue rigging the tournament without his partner Mr. Buu.[5]
Mr. Satan then starts the Telecommunicated Satan-style Martial Arts Course in an attempt to make money. As the videos were just overpriced rip-offs that featured flashy fight scenes enhanced through special effects, customer claims that the Telecommunicated Satan-style Martial Arts Course is worthless rapidly spread. Disgruntled costumers flood Satan House in Age 794, prompting Pan to subdue them. The event becomes a big scandal and the Telecommunicated Satan-style Martial Arts Course is then renamed the Pan Fighting Network, with Pan as the instructor.[5]
Mr. Satan ends up being very active as a movie star. Appearing in all sorts of films, he played the role of various types of characters in everything from romance films to action flicks. The film "Satan Legend" starring Mr. Satan is released in Age 796. It is a refreshing movie, but did not do well in at the box office. Nevertheless, it solicited a cult-like popularity among different parts of the world.[5]
When Mr. Satan dies in Age 820, the King of Earth honors him with a national funeral.[5]
Dragon Ball Z movies
In all the movies that feature him, with the exception of Dragon Ball Z: Bojack Unbound, he is credited as "Hercule" rather than "Mr. Satan" in English dub, as he is usually referred to. Mr. Satan appears in the following Dragon Ball Z movies and specials:
- Taking place after the Cell Games, millionaire X.S. Cash organizes an Intergalactic World Tournament as a birthday present for his only son Monty, supposed to feature fighters representing the four corners of the galaxy (in reality, the 4 fighters are actually the pupils of Mr. Satan; made-up to look like aliens). The winner of the said tournament is to win a prize of 100,000,000 Zeni and get a chance to fight Mr. Satan. Mr. Satan looks forward to the tournament at first, but chickens out when he sees Gohan and Future Trunks (the "Golden Fighters") participating. He tries to get out having to fight by sitting on the toilet with a fake stomach ache. During the finals it is discovered that Bojack and his henchmen have killed Mr. Satan's pupils (the fake galaxy warriors) and are posing as them. Mr. Satan is forced to face Bojack (to protect his public image) and actually ends up accidentally saving Gohan from the galaxy soldiers Psychic Thread energy draining technique, as his shuttle-car (a vehicle used to travel to the staging area) flies wildly through the area, but his shuttle-car is blasted by an angry Bojack and is destroyed, leaving Mr. Satan who comically falls to the ground, creating a man-sized crater (luckily he survives). Shortly thereafter, Bojack tells Gohan that, for the latter's sake, he hopes that the champion was not Gohan's cavalry, causing the boy to attack the pirate in a rage. Due to the cameras having been damaged during the fight, the audience is unable to see the tournament's climax, and Mr. Satan is once again awarded Gohan's credit for defeating Bojack. In order to keep up his public image, Mr. Satan plays along.
- The character is still called Mr. Satan in the UK dub of the movie, while he is named Hercule in the UK anime; this is because of it being dubbed by a Dutch company that only dubbed the movies and not the episodes.
"I'll pay, just don't break anything." |
- Taking place sometime after the World Tournament Saga, Mr. Satan is visited by Android 18 as he had not paid the 20,000,000 Zeni he promised her, with Mr. Satan claiming it had not been mailed to him yet. He is soon is invited by his old rival Lord Jaguar to fight his Bio-Warriors. If not, Jaguar would reveal to the world Mr. Satan's bed wetting secret from when he was young, and from when they were friends. Android 18, Trunks, Goten, and Krillin follow Mr. Satan to Mei Queen Castle, and defeat the Bio-Warriors pretending to be Mr. Satan's students. That is, until Bio-Broly, a clone of the late Legendary Super Saiyan Broly, is activated and tries to kill Satan. In the end, after Bio-Broly is killed, Satan ends up stranded in the water, and the greedy Android 18 refuses to save him unless he pays her an extra 80,000,000 Zeni. Fuming, he swims off.
- He is not referred to as "Mr. Satan" in this movie, however, but either "Hercule" or plain "Satan". It is subtly implied in this movie that Mr. Satan had a bad case of incontinence when he was a child, as Men-Men's tactic of persuading Mr. Satan to come to Jaguar's castle involved blackmail (that is, threatening to reveal to the press that Mr. Satan wet his bed at summer camp).
- Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn
- When the dead are resurrected, Mr. Satan is only seen for a few seconds, beating up walking skeletons and zombies (this is perhaps the only fight against a threatening force to the Earth where Mr. Satan actually succeeds at winning, he even says "Finally an adversary I can really beat! I need to do this where someone can see me!").
- Several years after Kid Buu's defeat, Mr. Satan is seen at Bulma's birthday party and later with Mr. Buu when the Z Fighters face the God of Destruction Beerus.
Other appearances
Cross Epoch
In the crossover manga Cross Epoch, Mr. Satan gathers the Dragon Balls and grants a wish from Shenron to become king of an island. His wish to become king is the cause of all of the other characters traveling to Shenron's tea party, which is held on an island filled with giant desserts. This wish makes everyone on the island happy.
Dragon Ball SD
Mr. Satan appears in chapter 4 of Dragon Ball SD. His role is mostly the same as in the original manga/anime, but Goku and the others do not seem to know him.
Dream 9: Super Collaboration Special
Mr. Satan appears in the Dream 9 Toriko & One Piece & Dragon Ball Z Super Collaboration Special, where he is the color commentator for the race. He ends up falling into the battlefield, and is the "official" winner when Goku, Toriko, and Luffy destroy the arena accidentally.
Power and special abilities
Mr. Satan is quite strong on an ordinary human level. If a monstrously strong opponent turned up, however, he would pretend he was not feeling well and sit out the match.[7] Mr. Satan's martial arts prowess is at a level far below that of the Z Fighters; his abilities are comparable to that of "normal" martial artists and trained humans like those encountered during the early Dragon Ball tournaments, who possess considerable fighting skills but lack the ability to use ki in even basic ways. His perfect record in the 24th World Tournament (during the hiatus of Z Fighters appearances) was earned fairly.[7] Goku referred to his skills as "basic martial arts" when contemplating whether he should fuse with him or not. Though Mr. Satan often appears to be a pitiful weakling, this is only because he is typically seen attempting to battle the Z Fighters and their enemies. He is actually a very skilled fighter when compared to the average human;[3][7] Mr. Satan is able to break 14 thick tiles with a single chop, so he is strong enough in his own right,[3] though as a running gag in the anime, every time he stacks tiles on top of each other and breaks them with a karate chop, one tile always seems to remain. The first time was to demonstrate his strength during the Cell Games, in which he used fifteen, and the second time was after he took the credit for defeating Cell, using twenty tiles this time. The third time was during the movie Bojack Unbound, when he broke an entire tower of tiles in the beginning of the movie (again to demonstrate his strength).
He does possess some degree of superhuman speed, strength and stamina, which he often demonstrates through various shows of might (breaking boards, tearing multiple phone books in half, or pulling a line of 4 buses several feet and punching a hole in one, in the anime only). He is able to survive being knocked into a mountain by Perfect Cell (although Piccolo notes that Cell did not want to expend any effort into attacking the likes of Satan), and even a light punch to the face from Kid Buu, though these instances are likely intended for comic relief. He is able to use Rapid Movement (super speed), which he is seen using during his second encounter with the crazed gunman, Van Zant.
When he was first introduced, he is ignorant to (or in denial of) the existence of ki energy and ki attacks, and dismisses its use in martial arts, comparing it to a magician's trick and often stating this to various reporters even when it clearly is not. Though he eventually discovers it is very real, he never actively seeks to learn how to use it (he may have retained his previous mindset of ki being a "cheap trick"). After witnessing that his daughter Videl can fly, he attempts to learn how to fly himself by using fruitless methods such as jumping from a chair, and later, a tall cliff on the Sacred World of the Kais after Kid Buu blows up the Earth. Mr. Satan never learns how to fly (despite the fact that he could have learned from either his daughter, granddaughter, or Buu).
The one ability that Mr. Satan possesses that none of the other Z Fighters could master was the gift of gab. Whenever the Z Fighters' strategy required the cooperation of the general public (such as the Super Spirit Bomb in the Kid Buu Saga or evacuating the Earth in the Baby Saga), they turned to Mr. Satan to persuade the people. This made him just as, if not more so, invaluable in those cases as Goku or Vegeta.
Although very weak when compared to Goku and the others, Mr. Satan is a skilled martial artist whose strength exceeds that of regular people.[3] His strength is much greater than that of "normal" humans like the evil gunmen Van Zant and Smitty, and it is higher than that of a martial artist like Spopovich (before Babidi increases his power). Mr. Satan also seemingly has superhuman levels of strength and speed, demonstrated when he moves so fast it appears that he is teleporting (to Van Zant), pulls four buses single-handedly, and crushes fourteen tiles with a chop. In his match against Spopovich in the 24th World Tournament (shown exclusively in the anime), he displays the ability to leap very high into the air and land with no apparent damage or difficulty, and effortlessly sends Spopovich, who is much larger and more muscular than him, flying with a single kick. However, according to Gohan, his skills are below that of his daughter Videl, who has a basic understanding of ki and flight, and takes training more seriously than he does.
Techniques and arsenal
- Hikou – Mr. Satan can fly by utilising a jet-pack.
- Dynamite Kick – Mr. Satan used this against Perfect Cell, with no effect outside of video games.
- Satan Punch – Mr. Satan's signature move, this is just an ordinary punch preceded by Satan shouting "Satan Punch!" when he uses it. He actually used this for the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament on the Punching Machine which was destroyed by Vegeta. This is also known as the Megaton Punch.
- King of Dreamers – Mr. Satan runs up at the opponent and throws a barrage of kicks and punches to which the opponent does not react at all. He then lifts them and throws them in the air with a mighty heave and raises his first two fingers. He uses this attack only once against Android 18 before winning the match with the Dynamic Mess Em Up Punch. It is one of Mr. Satan's Blast 2 attacks in Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2, and his grapple throw in Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3.
- Dynamic Mess Em Up Punch – The attack he used to defeat Android 18 and win the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament. He punches the opponent many times and finishes with a 'powerful' punch, while saying "You're all washed up!" It is Mr. Satan's meteor attack in Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Battle 22 (named Meteo Muscle Bomber), his Ultimate Blast in Budokai Tenkaichi 2, and one of his Blast 2 attacks in Budokai Tenkaichi 3.
- Game Boy Bomb – One of Mr. Satan's humorous last resort moves. The move is derived from Satan giving Majin Buu a "Game Poy" (an obvious parody of a Game Boy) and pressing a button to make it explode in the Buu Saga. Also known as Present For You and Present Bomb.
- Hercule Special – Mr. Satan knocks the opponent to the ground, sets up a camera, and then runs over to the unconscious enemy. Then, as his opponent is about to get up, Mr. Satan stomps on him/her, while raising his first two fingers. The picture is taken, with Mr. Satan holding it up in the air to show that he has actually beaten his opponent. Named in the Budokai video game series. In Budokai 1, Hercule Special is the name of a technique where Mr. Satan dodges all of his opponents attacks until a Game Boy Bomb falls and explodes on him, sending him headbutting the opponent.
- Miracle Knee! - Hercule's evasive technique where he clutches his stomach and shouts "Aw, My Stomach! It Hurts!" pretending to have a Stomach Ache to avoid fighting while saving face with his public, who simply belief that he has stomach condition which at certain times prevents him from fighting at full strength. Named in Dragon Ball: Xenoverse where it is Mr. Satan's evasive skill. It was first seen during the Cell Games.
- Hercule Ultra Dynamite – A High Speed Rush technique where Gokule releases a fast combo of kicks and punches on his enemy. He uses this technique to knock Van Zant and Smitty out. Also used in the Budokai series and the first Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi.
- Rapid Movement – Mr. Satan seems skilled enough to use the Rapid Movement. He uses this when Van Zant wants to shoot him inside Buu's house.[8]

- Super Spirit Bomb – Goku and Mr. Satan's Ultimate Team Attack, where Mr. Satan uses his "ability to convince the people of Earth" (possibly his "greatest strength") to help out by giving up their energy to Goku (believing they are giving it to Mr. Satan himself). Goku then throws the completed Super Spirit Bomb at the opponent, concluding the attack. They used this attack to defeated Kid Buu. Appears in Supersonic Warriors 2, as Goku (Base) and Mr. Satan's Team Attack.
- 45-Calibre Gun[9] – Mr. Satan used his handgun in attempt to stop Super Buu's Finger Beam, and believed he did so when Tien Shinhan obliterated the ball with his Tri-Beam technique without Satan noticing this. He also uses it in Dragon Ball Z: Shin Butōden to cheat in the Satan Mode, and in the Legacy of Goku series to replace the Ki Blasts the other playable characters can use.

Forms and Fusions
High Tension
Main article: High Tension Mr. Satan can use High Tension as a transformation in the Budokai series. Once activated, white aura seeps out through his skin and radiates in a flame-like manner. Mr. Satan's daughter, Videl, has the same type of aura.
Controlled by Mira
Main articles: Towa's Dark Magic and Mira
In Dragon Ball: Xenoverse, due to a magic spell by Towa, Mr. Satan is taken control of and greatly powered up by Mira. Taking on a form similar to Villainous Mode, his appearance changes slightly and he gains red eyes and a dark aura.
In this form, Mr. Satan is far more powerful than ever before and is even efficient enough in fighting against Super Saiyan Goku and the Future Warrior at the time of the Cell Games, he is also capable of controlling his ki, allowing him to fly and utilize ki blasts.
Villainous Mode
Main articles: Demigra's Dark Magic and Villainous Mode In Dragon Ball: Xenoverse, in Parallel Quest 34: "Majin Revival" a defeated Mr. Satan is revived in Villainous Mode. In this form, Mr. Satan is far more powerful than before and capable of fighting against Majin Buu after being freed from his Sealed Ball. He is also capable of controlling his ki allowing him to fly and utilize ki blasts.
Main article: Gokule
Gokule is the imaginary fusion of Goku and Mr. Satan formed by the Potara earrings. He only appeared in Goku's imagination and as a playable character in Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2. After Goku returns to life and Earth, he finds Gohan to be the only remaining strong fighter to fuse with. But when Goku threw the Potara earring to Gohan, Gohan dropped it, and when he finally found it, he was absorbed by Super Buu. As the only two beings that were still alive are Mr. Satan and Dende, he imaged what the fusion would look like and which of the two would be better. He chose the former, because Mr. Satan had more fighting experience and might make Goku a little stronger. In addition, fusing with Dende would make the Dragon Balls of Earth disappear. Just at the moment Goku said that Mr. Satan should catch the earring and put it on his left ear, Vegeta appeared and Goku used Instant Transmission to find Vegeta and fuse, forming Vegito. This being the case, Gokule was only a hypothetical character in the anime, and is only seen as Goku's mental image of what the fusion would look like.
In the Japanese version of Budokai 2, this fusion is referred to as Gotan.
Yamcule is a hypothetical fusion of Mr. Satan and Yamcha. It is a "Fusion Frenzy" card in the Dragon Ball Z Collectible Card Game card game, however, the card itself does not depict the fused character, instead showing the two fusing characters beside each other
Video games
Mr. Satan is a playable fighter in the Butōden series, the Budokai series, and the Budokai Tenkaichi series; he is considered a joke character, especially due to his ridiculous (yet effective) special skill moves. In Dragon Ball: Zenkai Battle Royale, as he believes all the fancy energy attacks and such to be a trick (much as he does in the original series and heading into even more gag-character territory), ki-based attacks have no effect on him. His attacks in the game include high-powered guided missiles and a remote-controlled bomb.
Mr. Satan is a secret playable character in the RPG Dragon Ball Z: The Legacy of Goku II.
In Dragon Ball Z: Supersonic Warriors 2, an amnesiac Broly becomes good friends with Mr. Satan in one of his "what if" stories. This friendship that Mr. Satan had with Broly is very similar to the one he had with Majin Buu.
In several game his signature Dynamite Kick produces a explosive effect which is likely added for dramatic effect, though it also may be a reference to the explosive dynamite which the techniques name is derived. This also fits with Hercule's use of explosives.
In Dragon Ball: Xenoverse, during the Cell Games Hercule falls under Démigra's Dark Magic and transforms into Dark Mr. Satan, gaining the abilities of Ki control, Flight technique and the fire Ki Blasts. As Dark Mr. Satan, his personality becomes tainted by evil and he can fly without the use his jet pack. However the abilities bestowed to him by Démigra's Dark Magic are lost when Mr. Satan returns to normal.
Mr. Satan's jetpack
In most of the video games, Mr. Satan flies around using a jetpack. The jetpack is the reason that he is able to fly in those video games, though often still in a lessened capacity than the other fighters. The looks and design of the jetpack changes from game to game.
- Dragon Ball Z 2: Super Battle: Mr. Satan's jetpack is light-brown/yellow, and has two thrusters. In addition of using it to fly during battles, Mr. Satan can release a stream of fire from his jetpack to attack his opponent.
- Dragon Ball Z: Budokai: Mr. Satan's jetpack is white on top and black at the bottom with two thrusters that glow green which allows Mr. Satan to hover in the air. The letter '01' and 'C' can be seen on the back of the jetpack. This means it is probably a first model prototype jetpack.
- Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2: The jetpack takes on a different look and design, being medium in size with only one thruster. The pack only has a letter '1' on the back, while there is still the 'C' as well. There are also mini-wings on the bottom-sides of the pack.
- Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3: The jetpack is still the same as before, but gives Mr. Satan better lift off than on the previous games, as well as in Infinite World.
- Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi: The jetpack is now light-brown and bulky, with white lines, and has two individual thrusters with flaps. The letter 'C' is now white on each side of the pack.
- Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2: The jetpack is the same as before, except that it cannot keep Mr. Satan in the air for more than 3 seconds. This makes a major handicap for players who are used to playing him. When he does fly, its rather clumsy looking. This also leaves him open to attacks.
- Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3: The jetpack still does not allows Mr. Satan to stay in the air, but it does not let him fall to the ground anymore. Instead, he slowly descends to the ground instead of falling. To let him fly, a special item must be in his custom.
- Dragon Ball Z: The Legacy of Goku II: On the games' world map and to access certain areas (where the other playable characters would use flight), Mr. Satan uses a white jetpack with two thrusters due to his inability to fly.
- Dragon Ball Z: Supersonic Warriors 2: Mr. Satan's jetpack is light-brown in this game.
- Dragon Ball: Xenoverse: Mr. Satan's jetpack is white on top and black on the bottom, with one thruster and the number 1 on the back.. It's appearance is similar to the one used in Budokai 2.

Name changes
Due to editing, Mr. Satan was renamed "Hercule" in the edited and dubbed American version on television and in the English-translated manga, in spite of the fact that a variety of references to hell, heaven, and the next life appear frequently in Lilian Olsen and Gerard Jones' Viz translation, he remains "Mr. Satan" in the uncut English anime on DVD, as well as the Mexican InterTRACK dub. The original name was considered too offensive due to its connection to the biblical Satan, a connotation that was intended but does not have the same religious significance for most in Japan. The new name originates from its use as his name in the French DBZ dub, which was based on Hercules in Greek mythology. Despite its use in the French and Portuguese versions, it should be noted that the changes there were not motivated by editing away offensive content, but instead to distinguish him from Piccolo, whom had been renamed "Satan Petit Cœur" and "Coraçãozinho de Satan" respectively (both loosely translate to "Satan's little heart"). Mr. Satan was also named "Mr. Savage" on early English Dragon Ball products long before the Cell Saga was dubbed or published in English. In the Philippines, being one of the only two Christian nations in Asia, the name Mr. Satan would sound unpleasant for a cartoon character (whose Filipino translation means "Satanas" or "Demonyo"), therefore it was also dubbed to "blend" with the character. Although there are no manipulations made in the animation (such as changing the names where "Satan" are written, like in "Satan City"), instead they made use of a more slapstick moniker called "Master Pogi", which literally means "Master Handsome" (making his city "Pogi City" or "Handsome City") to match the sense of humor that he brings to the story (the irony being that he is not that good looking). Eventually, Satan City was renamed Pogi City.
In the U.S. edition of Shonen Jump published by VIZ Media, an explanation is given that Hercule is the "real name" of the character while Mr. Satan was the name he used as a wrestler (though he has always been a martial artist) perhaps because his design and general showboating personality is similar to a stereotypical western wrestler.
In the booklet for the American release of Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Battle 22, the character's name is given as "Mr. Hercule Satan", with Hercule being his first name and Satan his last. Dragon Ball Z video games released in the English-speaking world since 2000 (including the Budokai and The Legacy of Goku series) use "Hercule" rather than "Mr. Satan," ostensibly because this is the most familiar name to English-speaking fans. For this same reason, the fusion of Hercule and Son Goku that occurs in Budokai 2 is called Gokule. In the Japanese version of this game, however, the character remains "Mr. Satan" and the fused character is called Gotan. The European version of Dragon Ball Z: Budokai had him named "Mr. Satan", but was later changed to "Hercule".
In the tradition of Dragon Ball name puns, Mr. Satan and his family are named after demons/figures from mythology and religion. His daughter's name, Videl, is an anagram of the word "devil". His granddaughter, Pan, can also be taken to mean the figure from Greek mythology (though since her father is Gohan, it could just as easily mean "bread"; given Toriyama's love of puns, it could be both). The Super Exciting Guide: Character Volume includes interviews with Toriyama, and he is asked about Mister Satan's real name in one of them. Toriyama mentions that Mister Satan is just the character's ring name reminiscent of that of a pro grappler and that his real name is Mark (マーク, Maaku),[2][3] which is a romanization of a rearrangement of Akuma (Japanese for devil). Since the region where Satan lives does not split up names into given names and family names, his name is simply "Mark".[3]
Battle record
Mr. Satan rarely defeats an opponent by himself, due to being no more than the strongest normal human in the series, but he does manage to win once every now and then. This is a list of opponents defeated by Mr. Satan:
- Spopovich – Defeated in the 24th World Martial Arts Tournament.
- Jewel – Defeated to win the World Martial Arts Tournament.
- Android 18 – He technically defeated her to win the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament, though had 18 not thrown the fight, the outcome would have been very different.
- Smitty – Hit him in the face with a rock.
- Van Zant – As physical retaliation for shooting Bee.
- Majuub – Technically beat him at the 31st World Martial Arts Tournament, although it was Uub who had let him win due to a request made by Majin Buu.
List of opponents he helped defeat:
- Perfect Cell – Threw Android 16's head to where Gohan was standing, leading to the events which caused Gohan to snap and become Super Saiyan 2.
- Bojack – Accidentally freed a trapped Gohan, who was trapped in energy draining Psychic Treads.
- Kid Buu – Convinced all the people of Earth to give Goku their energy for the Super Spirit Bomb, as well as carried Vegeta away so Goku could throw the Spirit Bomb without hitting Vegeta.
List of opponents he lost to:
- Mercenary Tao – Alongside his martial arts master, Mr. Satan was attacked by Tao at a bar due to them making fun of Tao's hairstyle. Tao heavily injured Mark and killed his master.[7]
- Perfect Cell – Cell swatted him far out of the ring and into a mountain with one swift stroke.
- Trunks – He technically lost, but because he faked that he let Trunks win, the general public believed he threw the match on purpose.
- Mr. Satan shares the same voice actors as King Yemma in the Japanese, FUNimation, and Ocean dubs.
- Mr. Satan can be seen as the Joker in one of Oolong's card games.
- Mr. Satan has won the World Martial Arts Tournament at least eight times, even though in seven of the tournaments, his opponent let him win.
- Ironically, Mr. Satan gets himself into far more dangerous situations than anyone in the series yet he always come out alive unlike most of the other characters, despite being one of the weakest of the Z Fighters, if not the weakest. Typically, it is his bond with the fat Majin Buu that allows for him to come through, against both the Super and original forms of Buu. However, it is to be noted that despite the Buu in question having merged with the same Uub (or Majuub) who was out of the count at the time, he manages to survive a kick from Omega Shenron, which even the strongest of the human Z Fighters should logically be unable to do. This occurs in a similar fashion to Kid Buu's punch to Satan's nose merely doing enough harm for him to shout in pain, and during the Cell Games was sent flying into a mountain which would have killed a normal person. This is probably just for comedic purposes.
- In the fight between Vegito and Super Buu, Mr. Satan is able to see the fighters while they move and fight, while unable to sense energy, however Gohan, during the Saibaman struggle, could not see the fights until he concentrated on their energy, and not using his eyes. This is another plot hole of the series.
- According to Dragon Ball Forever, he was voted number 11 by Japanese fans in the poll for best characters. He managed to score higher than even series regulars like Master Roshi, Yamcha, Bulma, and Yajirobe.

Love the look and feel of the pants very slimming and I ordered the tall size and was extremely pleased the length was perfect when I was wearing my heels. I am very glad that I decided to purchase two pair and am planning on purchasing addition colors with summer coming.....
No matter what size I'm in, I ALWAYS look great in these pants! Wish they were fly-front, though. I'm disabled, and it's harder to side zip. And yes, they should come in more colors.

Wikipedia in EnglishNone Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0142500631, Paperback)It's been twenty years since the first Hank the Cowdog book was published, and the series has been going strong ever since. Hank has faced every hardship imaginable-natural disaster, disease, and all kinds of monsters. But in The Case of the Burrowing Robot, he finds himself up against a creature he's never seen before-and boy is it scary! Someone-or something, a bizarre robot with beady eyes and a full suit of armor-is digging up the garden. Hank is on the case immediately, but before he can put an end to the armored creature's antics, he gets blamed for the crime. Can Hank dig his way out of this mess, or has he burrowed too deep? Find out in the latest adventure starring everyone's favorite Head of Ranch Security. (retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:37:47 -0400) Hank the Cowdog, Head of Ranch Security, uses his keen detective skills to find the ruffian responsible for digging holes in Sally May's garden. |

How do the micro-organisms that live on us and in us affect how healthy we are? And what do they do for us biochemically. In this special "Science Night" (second hour) edition of the Naked Scientists for BBC Radio 5 Live, aired originally on 30th December 2012, we talk to microbiologists Jo Verran, Liz Sockett and Justin Sonnenberg to find out, as well as building a laser pointer-powered microscope to investigate what's lurking in the lavatory (and the BBC Blue Peter Pond).
