Lower Oil Prices
To the dismay of U.S. shale producers, oil prices continue their long slow slide into the abyss. Perhaps the current price of $35 per barrel – an 11 year low – is the final destination. More than likely, however, it's a brief reprieve before the next descent.
Photo credit: Mohammed Ameen / Reuters
Oil exporters, including Saudi Arabia and Russia, have maintained high production rates. Their goal is to bankrupt U.S. shale companies and preserve market share. At the same time, oil demand is tapering as the global economy cools.
Global crude oil and condensate (c+c) production as of June 2015. In record high territory.
The combination of high production and declining demand has resulted in excess supply, and lower prices. The trend of lower prices won't change until either demand increases or production decreases. At the moment, it doesn't appear that either of these factors will change any time soon.
So how low can oil prices go? If you recall, in the late-1990s, oil prices dropped below $20 per barrel. Goldman Sachs thinks we'll see $20 per barrel oil again.
Obviously, oil prices can't go to zero. However, this offers little consolation for the many oil companies that borrowed gobs of money from Wall Street to leverage development of fracked wells that require $60 per barrel oil to pencil out.
Contrary to widespread expectations, Russian production has proved more than resilient in the face of low prices. The decline in the ruble and high export taxes on oil (which are based on threshold prices) have left Russian producers in a competitive situation.
Declining Hedges
So while it isn't possible for oil prices to go to zero. It is possible for the stock prices of oil companies to go to zero. In fact, over the next 12 months there could be a rash of bankruptcy's that results in delisted, worthless shares.
Here's why, as reported by Reuters…
"A Reuters analysis of hedging disclosures from the 30 largest oil producers showed the sector as a whole reduced its hedge books in the three months to September. When oil started falling from around $100 a barrel in mid-2014 due to a global supply glut, many U.S. producers had strong hedge books guaranteeing prices around $90 a barrel.
Now, with prices below $36 and flirting with 11-year lows on renewed oversupply fears, only five drillers among those reviewed by Reuters expanded their hedges in the third quarter and eight had no protection beyond 2015, leaving them fully exposed to price swings.
The five companies that increased outstanding oil options, swaps or other derivative hedging positions to secure a price floor for their production, added 13 million barrels in the third quarter to 327 million barrels covered, data show. Five other firms did not expand their books, with positions that either expire in 2016 or no hedges altogether. The remaining 20 companies had hedges decline by 72 million barrels from the previous quarter."
It may be sensible to take hedges off here – we will only know for certain with hindsight (note that fundamental data will not inform us in real time about the timing and the height of the price low – the low will be made at a time when the fundamentals look their absolute worst, so now could actually be a good time). It certainly didn't make sense a year or 18 months ago though – and some producers suffered from doing it way too early – click to enlarge.
Doom and Gloom for North American Oil Producers
Suspended animation, in the form of price hedges, allowed many U.S. oil companies to maintain production in 2015. Yet now that those hedges are expiring, and sales will be settled at daily market prices, these companies will get squeezed. In fact, it may get worse before it gets better.
Turning off oil production is not as simple is flipping off a light switch. Unfortunately, a twisted scenario can come about where output increases but revenues fall. In other words, companies can find themselves producing and selling more oil while earning less.
That's what happened to Continental Resources. They foolishly sold their hedges in late 2014 and operated in 2015 without hedges. Given oil's rapid price decline, it has been a brutal year.
During the third quarter 2015, Continental Resources increased output by 25 percent from the year before. However, crude and natural gas revenues fell 46 percent over this same period. What's more, had Continental Resources merely held on to the hedges they sold in late 2014, they would have made $1 billion more in 2015 than they did.
The market evidently didn't like CLR's recent earnings announcements – click to enlarge.
As of mid-December, there have been 39 North American oil producers that have filed for bankruptcy protection. The latest being Texas driller, Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation. At the time of their bankruptcy filing, they had $6.4 million in cash and $1.1 billion in total liabilities. That represents a debt to cash ratio of 17,187 percent.
Unless they can figure out how to turn a profit on $35 per barrel oil, restructuring is futile. Indeed, it's doom and gloom for North American oil producers.
Various break-even curves for different types of oil production, base case estimates by Goldman Sachs from around mid year. According to this, the vast bulk of shale oil production is uneconomic below $60/ bbl. – click to enlarge.

Alec Grosser has had a slider in his repertoire since high school, but he's been blowing opponents away with it this season.
With his strikeout pitch dealing, the Braves prospect allowed one hit over six innings as Rookie-level Rookie Danville shut beat Bristol, 4-0, on Wednesday night at American Legion Field at Dan Daniel Park.
"I felt like I was commanding all my pitches tonight pretty well, I felt confident," Grosser said. "I felt good physically and I felt focused before and during the game. I kept my pitch count low."
The 19-year-old right-hander issued two walks and matched a career high with seven strikeouts.
In the third, Bristol's Nathan Tomaszewski reached second on an error by first baseman Mike Dodig and took third on Enyel Vallejo's sacrifice. Grosser (2-0) continued to throw strikes, fanning Pablo Reyes and retiring Eduardo Figueroa on a groundout.
"I felt like as a starting pitcher, sometimes you give up runs if guys just beat you, but I got the hitter at two strikes and I was able to get him out," Grosser said of Reyes' at-bat. "I didn't have too many three-ball counts until maybe the fifth. I felt like I was able to command my pitches and get ahead."
The 2013 11th-round pick leads the Appalachian League with 33 strikeouts after whiffing seven for the third time in six starts.
"I've been throwing my slider and fastball for strikes. I felt like my slider this summer has been more of a strikeout pitch for me," he said. "I've thrown it since high school. I just feel like I am able to throw it for strikes better now than I did last summer."
The Virginia high school product bounced back from his roughest start of the season after surrendering five runs on five hits over 2 2/3 frames on July 10 at Pulaski. Aside from that outing, he's held Appy League foes to six earned runs over 24 2/3 innings.
"I felt like my last outing, mechanically, I was just all over the place. I felt like I couldn't command my fastball consistently," Grosser said. "So I worked with my pitching coach, threw some bullpens, just working on consistency."
Michael Flores, Kyle Kinman and Bradley Roney each threw a perfect inning, with Flores and Roney both striking out the side.
Like he's done all season, Jordan Edgerton provided support for Grosser. The ninth-round pick in last month's Draft collected three hits, drove in two runs and raised his average to .369.
"It's awesome seeing him hit the ball and drive in runs," Grosser said of the 20-year-old third baseman. "I feel like I'm used to it at this point [because] he's always doing well, always driving in runs."

Coating Materials
A new antifouling paint could repel organisms from ship hulls without killing them, researchers say.
Guillermo Blustein and his colleagues in Argentina say they have developed a sustainable paint ingredient from plants that can avert potentially adverse economic damage.
Scientists have developed an antifoulant that could repel barnacles and algae without killing them.
When barnacles stick to hulls, they "create a cascade of problems," the researchers note. By keeping hulls clean, a ship's fuel savings can be increased by as much as 40 percent.
Barnacle-Repelling Bark
The researchers turned to Maytenus trees, whose root bark have compounds similar to agents produced by bottom-dwelling ocean creatures. Maytenus trees can grow in a wide variety of climates, from tropical to subpolar.
They found the compounds in the tree could repel barnacles, but didn't typically cause long-term damage.
These compounds were added to paint, which was applied to tiles and tested in the sea for 45 days.
According to the scientists, the new coatings effectively stopped algae, tube worms and other creatures from latching on.
The results, researchers say, may provide a more environmentally friendly alternative for the control of biofouling, replacing toxic additives currently in use in marine paints.
Root bark from Maytenus trees have compounds similar to agents produced by ocean creatures.
The report "Antifouling Activity of Celastroids Isolated from Maytenus Species, Natural and Sustainable Alternatives for Marine Coatings," appears in Industrial & Engineering Chemical Research, a journal from the American Chemical Society.
Editor's Note: This article was corrected at 1:02 p.m. EDT May 27 to reflect that keeping a hull clean can increase fuel savings, not fuel use. PaintSquare News regrets the error.

The question that comes to mind though: is this tree sustainable and quick growing?
Comment from Mark Anater, (5/23/2014, 11:19 AM)
This is exactly the kind of research we need. It solves a current problem, and it's sustainable.
Comment from Adlai Perry, (5/27/2014, 12:32 PM)
I believe that "By keeping hulls clean, a ship's fuel use can be bumped up by as much as 40 percent" should have been either:
"By keeping hulls clean, a ship's fuel savings can be bumped up by as much as 40 percent"
"Unless a ship's hull is kept clean, fuel use can be bumped up by as much as 40 percent".
Comment from Mary Chollet, (5/27/2014, 1:04 PM)
Of course, you're correct. Thanks for the catch!
Comment from Jeff Longmore, (5/28/2014, 9:56 AM)
45 days protection! Be still my heart! Time to get real, 450 days would begin to be interesting.
Comment from Tom Schwerdt, (5/29/2014, 8:32 AM)
45 days for an initial screening is reasonable, enough time to see if it works at all. I agree that much longer duration will be needed before actual deployment.

We have pretty much finalized our SEA trip.
A good part of our 5 week trip will be in northern Thailand travelling the Golden Triangle and Mae Hong Son Loop.
To drive or not to drive?
We have driven extensively in Europe but never in SE Asia. We like to have a destination but the freedom to stop at will for rest, photos, meals, etc. We absolutely don't want to stop at sights or markets in which we have no interest (not big shoppers). We really don't want a guide at this point.
Are we crazy to think of renting a car and self driving in both these areas? Or should we hire a driver? If we hired a driver for a week in each area, what would be a normal fee? Do we pay for the driver's expenses e.g.gas, food, lodging as well? Is it customary to tip the driver? Are there recent recommendations for drivers?
Our first self drive would be from Chiang Mai to Chiang Dao and north to Chiang Saen and Chiang Rai. Would this prepare us for the Mae Hong Son Loop? And is it easy to buy gas in these areas?
Lots of questions, I know. Hoping your experiences will help us make a good decision.
Thank you.

Report Abuse
My first time in Thailand was 25 years ago when i used a guide. since then, I have driven al over Thailand over the years without any problems. Here is a link to my trip report of a couple of years ago.
Driving the Mae Hong Sorn Loop is pretty straightforward, you just have to attune yourself to the Thai way of driving.i.e. just assume that people will overtake on blind bends, drive on the wrong side of the road if the mood takes them and of course using a cellphone while driving is compulsory! Seriously, the worst part of your journey will be driving out of Chiang Mai, but hat can be mitigated by careful choice of hotel location and/ or picking up the car from downtown rather than he city. Driving the olden triangle is even easier. The roads in both areas are pretty good
There are now more gas stations than there used to be but it makes sense to keep topped up when you have the opportunity especially as you will usually have o return the car full.
I found these guides to be invaluable http://www.budget.co.th/travel_worldclass.aspx
If you want to get off e beaten track, hire a 4WD there are some good options around Doi Inthanon
Driving yourself will undoubtedly give Youmuch more flexibity than a driver guide but you do need o d your research in advance. Part of the fun is to get LS and find some unexpected places. Your own car also allows you to stop and stay at places hat up like the look of on spec. Often cheaper as well.
Report Abuse
I would drive yourselves and there's really no need for a driver especially for the MHS loop. If you did get a driver, apart from the extra expenses, you might not have as much privacy with the driver around you 24/7. Avis and Thai Rent a Car are 2 good companies in Thailand and both sell reasonable full coverage insurances with their rentals.
GPS navigation are available at an extra cost but a smartphone, like an iphone will do just as well.
Report Abuse
I would just rent a car. However, there's no way I'd drive in Bangkok or other major cities. I'm in DC and the traffic here is practical rural compared to Bangkok. Just stay alert. Traffic laws seem to be suggestions (yet somehow I never saw any crashes). Good luck!

And seeing as Ravage has entered the discussion, I'd like to see him as the next opponent for the SI (not for everyone, just the SI storyline). Like Thanaton he seems a bit backward in his ways, and is opposed to you taking a seat on the council, so there's going to be some rivalry their. Also being the head of Expansion and Diplomacy, he's going to play a bigger role now the Great Galatic War has restarted.
Karrid is also an interesting prospect. Notice that their have been no Faleen NPC's in SWTOR - so this would be interesting.
Oh yeah all force sensitive purebloods are held in high regard and raised like pedigree dogs I recall the rage when bioware said pureblood was not going to be an option for SI the amount of posts in that topic got them to relent.
I do recall that the writers said it does not make sense but they will add it since people requested it when they finally annouced it was going to be an option.
Personally I will be rather sad if human is canon cause as I said the SI story is more interesting if you are an alien since you get a lot more unique dialouge compared to human.

Alabama Sports Foundation
The Alabama Sports Foundation Board of Directors hired Bruno Event Team to staff and manage the Foundation's activities.
The Alabama Sports Foundation (ASF) serves as the official sports lobby for the Birmingham-Hoover Metropolitan Area as well as the State of Alabama. The Foundation's mission is to recruit, manage and promote major spectator sporting events throughout Alabama. ASF coordinates all aspects of event planning including sponsorship and hospitality sales, marketing and advertising campaigns development and implementation, and comprehensive event operations management logistics.
ASF, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, was founded in 1996 by Dr. Lawrence Lemak and Gene Hallman through the efforts of hosting Olympic Soccer at Legion Field in Birmingham, Alabama. Since then, the Foundation has hosted several U.S. Soccer Federation international matches including the Men's World Cup Qualifier (USA vs. Guatemala) in 2005, and an exhibition match (U.S. Women's National Team vs. Australia) in 2008.
The Foundation has a close relationship with the Southeastern Conference (SEC) and has hosted the SEC Baseball Tournament since 1998, as well as five of the neutral-site SEC Gymnastics Championships (2001-2003, 2006, 2014).
The Foundation played an integral role in relocating the Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC) Office from New Orleans to Birmingham in 1999, and hosted the SWAC Championship Football Game from 1999-2006. ASF also manages the State Farm Magic City Classic, which was named the most attended black college football game in the country in 2008.
In addition to the above events, the Alabama Sports Foundation has also managed several NCAA National Championships including the 2012 and 2013 NCAA Men's Soccer College Cup and the 2014 NCAA Women's Gymnastics National Championship.

Arale-chan (originally of Akira Toriyama's Dr. Slump, as well as Dragon Ball by way of a crossover during the Red Ribbon Army arc) will appear in the upcoming forty-third episode of Dragon Ball Super set to air 15 May 2016 in Japan.
The personal blog of Mayumi Tanaka (Kuririn & Yajirobe) recently showcased a photo of her hanging out with several other "aged" voice actors working on "today's Dragon Ball", saying to "look forward to the episode [this person] appears in". In the front row with Tanaka are Hiromi Tsuru (Bulma) and Shigeru Chiba (Pilaf) to her right and left, respectively. Behind them in the back row, from left to right, are Mami Koyama (Lunch & Arale), Eiko Yamada (Mai), Masako Nozawa (Son Goku), and Yūko Minaguchi (Videl & Pan).
Additionally, the personal website of Mami Koyama herself lists her as playing the role of Arale in the May 15th episode of Dragon Ball Super:

Fuji TV Dragon Ball Super: role of Arale
Thanks to alakazam^ on our forum for the heads-up!
Having spent a fair amount of time porting new translations to the website, it only made sense to catch up on the podcast by talking about this new content! Tune in for our thoughts on some of Toriyama's earliest media attention and what the anime staff were up to as the Dragon Ball Z portion of the series was hitting its stride.
Episode #0401! Mike and Julian discuss the recent article and interview translations added to Kanzenshuu. What kind of media attention was Akira Toriyama subjected to after his early success, and what did the anime staff have on their minds as the DBZ-portion of the series began to hit its stride?
Enjoy! Discuss this episode on the Kanzenshuu forum, and be sure to connect with us on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Google+, and Tumblr.
Following up on (and jumping backward from!) our translation of the "Super Anime-jin" roundtable discussion from the second Dragon Ball Z Anime Special "mook" (magazine/book) in 1991, today we are adding another translation to the archive: the "Dragon Call" column from the first Dragon Ball Z Anime Special in 1989.
The column — whose title is a play on "Love Call", Japanese-English phrase for expressing your heartfelt feelings towards someone or something — features comments from eight key production staff members:
The "mook" itself was released 04 October 1989, and the staff look forward to the major changes coming to the anime with the introduction of Vegeta and Nappa.
With regard to Toriyama's writing style and comedic timing, Series Organizer & Scenario Writer Takao Koyama stated:
In terms of the way of making the gags as well, I do escalating gags, or rather, I make each gag run into the next, one after another, but Toriyama-sensei's gags, on the other hand, are more restrained, and good at getting you at just the right point. So, at the time of Dr. Slump, I was taught by Shichijō-san that "you don't have to force the laughs", and that was just an incredible culture-shock.
Similar to comments he would echo two years later, Chief Animator Minoru Maeda commented on his difficulties with drawing Piccolo, and how that contrasted with drawing Goku at the time:
Even so, I couldn't draw Ma Junior well (laughs), and as a result, he left an unexpectedly weak impression. I suppose the reason why Goku is easy to draw in contrast to that might be because I'm obsessed with how to express Goku's manliness.

The July 2014 issue of Saikyō Jump (released 04 June 2014 in Japan) was jam-packed with special Dragon Ball content. In particular, it featured the following manga series/chapters:
The issue also featured an interview with Dragon Ball SD's Naho Ooishi interviewing original manga author Akira Toriyama about the scouters in the series.
Before all that, however, the issue starts with a short, four-panel comic by Akira Toriyama himself discussing what he is up to and how exactly it came to be that he managed to contribute so little to a special issue celebrating his own series.
This comic has been archived in our "Translations" section.
Bandai Namco has released their debut trailer for the upcoming Nintendo 3DS game in Japan, Dragon Ball Fusions, available on the game's updated website and company's YouTube channel:
It all began with a single wish thought up by some boys.
TEXT: Found it…!
The entire galaxy has been waiting…
A new Dragon Ball story on the Nintendo 3DS…
Dragon Ball Fusions
The boys created a world where everything is mixed together, both the living world and the afterlife.
Freely explore this Dragon World that expands throughout space and time.
Recruit super warriors from different eras as allies, and fight new battles.
The boys have created this never-before-seen Dragon Ball that surpasses time and space.
Dragon Ball Fusions for the Nintendo 3DS.
(W-What the-!?)
Dragon Ball Fusions (originally revealed as "Project Fusion") is currently under development by Ganbarion for a nebulous 2016 release by Bandai Namco on the Nintendo 3DS in Japan. No international localization has been announced as-of-yet.
Following up on and complementing our earlier FOCUS magazine article translation, we are adding one more pre-Dragon Ball translation to the pile: Akira Toriyama's first major television interview. Toriyama was a guest on Tetsuko Kuroyanagi's afternoon talk show, Tetsuko's Room, first aired in Japan 04 May 1983. The interview itself must have been conducted some time that April, since Toriyama mentions being married "almost a year" (his wedding haven taken place on 02 May 1982), because only the first nine volumes of Dr. Slump were out at the time, and because Toriyama had been in serialization for "three years and four months". Kuroyanagi's demeanor is cordial throughout and her speech is always honorific-polite, though she is clearly struggling to elicit some kind of answer from Toriyama at points. Toriyama, meanwhile, seems clearly out of his element, and does not always know what to say, preferring to keep his answers short and frequently looking over at his wife for support.
In the interview, Toriyama remarks on the pressure of media attention following his rapid success, the merchandising empire already set in place surrounding Dr. Slump, and relying on his wife for motivation and assistance:
Toriyama: Sometimes she helps me with my work, though.
Tetsuko: Ah, is that so? Then she must be quite good, then.
Toriyama: She's a lifesaver in that respect.
Tetsuko: Say, she must know about a variety of other things, as well, with you. What's rough, and what's difficult.
Toriyama: That's really the part where she's helped me the most. If it were someone who didn't know that, well…. For instance, when I'm coming up with a story, and such, she starts talking to me without any reservation. That point — since she drew herself, as well — it seems she knows what parts are hard for me.
Tetsuko: In that case, you married the right person.
Toriyama: Yes, I did. (laughs)
This interview has been archived in our "Translations" section.
As with our prior pre-Dragon Ball translations, our goal is not necessarily to catalog them all, but rather to (at the very least) pinpoint the milestones along the way that led up to Dragon Ball. Much like reading Dr. Slump provides a whole new outlook on Dragon Ball, Toriyama's earliest interviews perfectly complement his later ones and shine a light on the "how" and "why" behind many of his decisions.
Following up on Toriyama's first two print interviews from 1980, today we are adding one more pre-Dragon Ball translation to the pile: an article from FOCUS magazine's 1982 #19 issue. In the article, Shinchosha's photo-essay magazine focused on Akira Toriyama's wedding and his drastic increase in annual income.
The article goes on to discuss Toriyama's courtship with his newly-wed wife as well as his income, which in the article's own terms, solidified him as a "bona fide rich man." As was common for the time, press and fans alike wondered where the author was heading, and if it was possible for him to top Dr. Slump with anything of substance and staying-power:
What concerns us poor people more than anything is how he will spend that 539,240,000 yen. However, about 430 million of this great sum is taken out in taxes. Even as a bona fide rich man, he thought of these taxes as "harsh". So, what's left is a little over 100 million yen. This was used to buy a 260-tsubo plot near his home and build a house on it, so now it's all gone. For the time being, he'll be able to continue living off the "Arale-chan boom", but he won't be able to rely on Arale-chan forever. "My comic won't change after I'm married", he says, but what sort of characters will this "rich man", who in two years has acquired a mansion and taken a bride, come out with from within the walls of his estate?

Czecho No Republic has released the full track listings and cover art for both the "Czecho Version" and "Dragon Ball Super Version" of their upcoming "Forever Dreaming" CD single, the title track for which is currently in use as the fourth closing theme to the Dragon Ball Super TV series.
The "Czecho Version" will include the original Japanese as well as an English version of "Forever Dreaming" and two additional tracks: "24 Factory" and "Dinosaur (Daydream Version)":
The "Dragon Ball Super Version" will include both the Japanese and English versions of "Forever Dreaming" along with two additional tracks: "24 Factory" and a cover of the closing theme to the original Dragon Ball TV series, "I'll Give You Romance":
"Forever Dreaming", available now various Japanese digital storefronts as a TV-sized single, saw its full-length radio debut today in Japan on Tokyo FM's "Skyrocket Company" broadcast.
The "Czecho Version" (COZX-1174~5; ¥1700 + tax) and "Dragon Ball Super Version" (COCA-17191; ¥1200 + tax) of the "Forever Dreaming" CD singles will be available 18 May 2016 in Japan. Both are available for pre-order on CDJapan and Amazon Japan.
Czecho No Republic previously contributed "Oh Yeah!!!!!!!" as the fifth overall closing theme for the Japanese broadcast of Dragon Ball Kai.
"I'll Give You Romance" was also recently covered by Kazuya Yoshii on his CD single for the Dragon Ball Super opening theme, "Chōzetsu ☆ Dynamic!"
Dragon Ball received several highly-interesting guide books during its original serialization. These special issues of Jump — "mooks" (a combination of "magazine" and "book") — would be released in promotion of the latest story arcs. A recent example might be 2015's Dragon Ball Super: Super Start Guide, a book actually released prior to its respective television debut which shares early story beats and interviews with directorial and creative staff members.
1989 saw the release of the Jump Gold Selection: Dragon Ball Z Anime Special "mook" followed by a second volume in 1991. These mid-serialization "mooks" served as the first cataloged point of several tidbits of information which would later be cited in the Daizenshuu.
This second book includes a roundtable interview/discussion entitled "Super Anime-jin" (or just "Super Anime People") with seven key players:
The "mook" itself was released 06 June 1991 (as cited by Toriyama himself in the weekly comments for Chapter 327 of the manga). The roundtable discussion — which appears to have taken place at a Chinese restaurant and at an actual round table — must have taken place some time between April and early-June 1991 due to comments made about the impending theatrical release of Dragon Ball Z Movie 5. This places many of the comments in a fascinating historical context, such as scenario writer Takao Koyama noting:
By the way, since Kaiō is the Kaiō of the North Galaxy… That means there must be a South, East, and West Galaxy, as well…
In the discussion, Akira Toriyama remarks that the Bardock TV special made him cry, a comment he would later echo in his 1995 Daizenshuu #6 interview, and consistently-so yet again in 2011 with his special comments for the Bardock and Trunks "Special Selection DVD" home release.
Well, at first, we were talking about whether we could do that for a theatrical movie.
Whether we could do something in the form of Goku vs. Goku's father.
However, without resorting to time travel or some-such, he wouldn't be able to fight against Goku… And before long, the conversation shifted to, "In that case, perhaps it would be all right to have a story depicting Goku's father."
That special was good. I cried. How come you can make a story so much better than the original manga? (laughs)
But after that, you made use of the setting from that time in the original manga, and I was truly grateful.
Well, that's because I wanted to use it, no matter what…
The staff also detail the somewhat-hidden name pun source behind "Coola":
It's called The Incredible Strongest vs. Strongest, and would you believe it, Freeza's brother, named Coola, appears…
The origin of the name is interesting…
Yes, that's right. I was talking about how I'd eaten something called "ice-cream manjū" back when I was in Kiryū, and Morishita-san said he remembered that sort of thing, too. Since Morishita-san is from Shizuoka, I asked him if they say "kuu zura"4 or something in Shizuoka, and he said, "No, we say 'kuu ra'." (laughs)
There's no "zu". (laughs)
So, Coola! And, we ended up saying, "Let's just go with that, then".

Back in April 2014, in celebration of the Jaco the Galactic Patrolman collected manga volume release, Shueisha began including new comments from Akira Toriyama on the obi (paper band surrounding the book, generally promotional in nature) of his seven other (non-Dr. Slump and non-Dragon Ball) manga volumes. While each comment was only a short few lines, they provide a quick insight into the mind of the man himself, with the occasional nod or comparison to Dragon Ball. Toriyama also contributed a new illustration for each comment which showcases a representative character crossing their arms. These comments were also briefly archived on Shueisha's promotional Jaco the Galactic Patrolman website.
For Neko Majin in particular — a series that he sporadically worked on over the course of 1999 to 2005 — Toriyama commented on the absurdity of the series and how he enjoyed putting together the early chapters:
Bursting with stupidity!
I love light stuff like this.
The early part of Neko Majin in particular, I enjoyed drawing.
For me, that's rare.
—Akira Toriyama

Go big, or go home. That's Jenni "JWOWW" Farley's motto, in case you just crawled out of the womb, and with each passing day that the big-bubbied guidette's big-muscled boyfriend doesn't propose on Season 2 of "Snooki & JWOWW," her engagement ring size requirements increase exponentially. But before you get all "She's so materialistic!" on the sexy reality TV star, know this: Roger's equally obsessed with the large-and-in-charge look. "The first Christmas we had together, when we were dating for I think 6 months, he got me that promise ring," Jenni reminds Nicole in the "Tea Time with Snooki & JWOWW" clip below. "It was 3-and-a-half carats…a promise ring! So I assumed that he'd have to go bigger for the real one." Sounds like strong logic to Snooks, although the barely 5 feet tall MILF still seems amused by her best friend's conviction. "I told him he had full control over the design, as long as it was relatively big, and had pink diamonds," explains Jenni. Now that calls for a big, bolded "WERK!"
Watch the video to hear more of the girls' conversation, and keep tuning in to "Snooki & JWOWW" on Tuesday nights at 10/9c to see if Roger gets the job done.

Dominique Vitalis
June 25, 2014
WASHINGTON - Georgetown University women's basketball junior Dominique Vitalis (Bloomfield, N.J./Gill St. Bernard's) was among almost 1,000 participants to attend the annual National Conference for College Women Student Leaders (NCCWSL) earlier this month at the University of Maryland-College Park.
"I was very empowered by all of the women who were there," said Vitalis. "There was a great energy and it gave me a lot of ideas on how to move into a leadership role."
The conference is jointly hosted by the American Association of University Women (AAUW) and the National Association of Student Personnel Administrators (NASPA) and includes nearly 1,000 women from every state and around the world. In its 29th year, the event is America's premier conference for college women. It provides a transformative experience for attendees and prepares them to be the next generation of leaders.
Vitalis was sponsored by Georgetown's Division of Student Affairs and GU's Center for Student Engagement and followed in the footsteps of teammate Andrea White (C'14) who attended last summer.
Participants had the opportunity to choose from more than 50 workshops that prepare them for life after college, meet role models including Women of Distinction awardees and speakers, make connections, discover their future from more than 80 graduate schools and employers and gain the confidence and skills to return to their campuses and communities ready to take action.
"My favorite part was meeting the woman who inspired the role of Olivia Pope on Scandal, it was great to have the opportunity to ask her questions about her career path in politics."
This year's conference included two keynote speakers. Thursday was highlighted by a speech from Chelsea Clinton who currently serves as the vice chair of the Clinton Foundation. On Sunday, participants listed to Deanne Zandt, a media technologist and author.
Along with the speakers and workshops, Vitalis had the opportunity to take part in group networking, the Women of Distinction Awards Ceremony & Reception, Pizza and Movie Night, opening acts and Career Fairs, Friday Night in D.C.
"I'd love to do it again next year, it opened my eyes to understand how women are perceived in the workforce specifically in male-dominated fields," she said. "It gave me insight in how to carry myself, how to assert myself and how be taken seriously."

Home > Press > Frost & Sullivan Recognises Do-Coop Technologies Ltd.'s Innovative Neowater(TM) Water-Based Nanotechnology
The 2007 Frost & Sullivan
Technology Leadership Award in the European polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
reagents market is conferred on Israel-based Do-Coop Technologies Ltd. for
its series of novel nanotechnology-based reagents, which are all based-on
the innovative Neowater(TM), and for their role in enhancing the efficacy
and accuracy of PCR results. The company is also lauded for its consistent
market leadership.
A patented nanotechnology procedure enables Neowater(TM) to uniquely
mimic the intra cellular properties of water. Neowater(TM) exhibits
hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties, and is fundamentally a water
solution with hydrated particles that reduce its entropy.
"Since it is ready to use and is water-based, it offers complete
stability over the long-term and does not require any specific temperature
maintenance," notes Frost & Sullivan Research Analyst G. Haripriya. "Among
its key benefits are user-friendliness, ease-of-use, cost-effectiveness, an
environmentally safe profile and the ability to yield repeatable results."
In addition to being used as a reagent, Neowater(TM) can be used as a
biocatalyst, media growth enhancer, solvent and buffer. It can be boiled,
autoclaved, sheared, filtered, frozen and also shipped and stored at room
temperature. The advantage of Neowater(TM) is that it provides a better
physical environment for chemical reactions without altering it. The
addition of Neowater(TM) requires only minimal alterations in the
laboratory procedure but the results that are delivered are voluminous.
"In some places, Neowater(TM) is used as a replacement for solvents
which are alcohol and detergent-based while, at times, it is also used as a
reformulation substitute to reduce the toxicity of drugs," adds Ms.
Haripriya. "Neowater(TM) can also be used as a substitute for conventional
buffers to avoid issues related to viscosity."
The PCR enhancement is due to the unique mechanism of action behind
Neowater(TM), namely, that it hydrates molecules and locally concentrates
them even when inside other buffers or normal water. The product is also
cost effective and can be easily used in many types of sub-optimal and
inefficient reactions.
"Neowater(TM) used for PCR enhances the PCR yield and sensitivity and
can also reduce the total PCR volume," says Ms. Haripriya. "It also can
improve the reaction specificity and thereby reduce the length and number
of cycles of the PCR reaction."
Although currently a monopoly because of the patented nanotechnology
behind it, the Neowater(TM) brand is well established among end users and
promises to have continued appeal.
The product has already achieved significant market penetration and has
strengthened Do-Coop Technologies' global presence.
The Frost & Sullivan Award for Technology Leadership is bestowed each
year upon the company that has demonstrated excellence in technology
leadership within its industry. The recipient company has demonstrated
technology leadership by excelling in all stages of the technology life
cycle-incubation, adaptation, take-up and maturity-to ensure a continuous
flow of improvements. By innovating leading-edge concepts the company has
pioneered client applications.
Frost & Sullivan Best Practices Awards recognise companies in a variety
of regional and global markets for demonstrating outstanding achievement
and superior performance in areas such as leadership, technological
innovation, customer service and strategic product development. Industry
analysts compare market participants and measure performance through
in-depth interviews, analysis and extensive secondary research in order to
identify best practices in the industry.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has ended a three-year-long probe into alleged market manipulation by hedge funds SAC Capital Advisors and Kynikos Associates.
The regulator about a month ago informed the two firms that it was ending the investigation and would not bring enforcement actions against them, Reuters reports. The letters from the SEC have not been made public.
The SEC began its probe in 2008, two years after Canadian insurer Fairfax Financial Holdings sued SAC, Kynikos, Third Point and Exis Capital Management. Fairfax alleged that the hedge funds conspired to drive down its share price and engaged in insider-trading.
The end to the SEC's probe isn't good news for Fairfax: One of the regulator's first moves was to subpoena all of the e-mails and trading reports the hedge funds had provided to Fairfax as part of discovery in the company's civil suit, meaning the SEC likely did not find the evidence especially damning. In September, a New Jersey judge threw out Fairfax's lawsuit against SAC; the other hedge funds are now petitioning to have the cases against them dismissed, as well.
In October, Exis' Adam Sender complained that Fairfax's "frivolous" litigation has caused "immense" damage to his firm.
