According to the inside cover, the events in this issue takes place three weeks before Revenge of the Sith.
The name of character Ausar Auset, was taken from the Dark Horse Message boards where a regular poster, Roger from Montreal, goes by the user name 'ausar_auset'. Here's the thread in which he suggested the use of this name for a Jedi.
Kelkko is misspelled Kelko in one place in this issue.
Commander Faie is mentioned and seen in this issue as well as the next. He was an unused clone design from The Art of Revenge of the Sith and can be noticed by the robe and cloak he wears over his head and shoulders.
The Republic has engaged the Separatists on the desert planet of Saleucami. Jedi Master Oppo Rancisis sits in quiet contemplation, using his battle meditation skills to find the proper way to strike the enemy to allow for victory.
Meanwhile a small band of Jedi engage the enemy. The Seps are using Morgukai clones trained by Anzati assassins in the battle, and it has been a hard five months since the siege started. Master Rancisis has revealed to Quinlan Vos that a "path below" will be revealed that will lead them to victory.
The Jedi are waiting for their air forces to take out the shield generator; while the air forces are waiting for the ground forces to knock out the ion cannon. It is mass chaos on the battlefield, and some Jedi do not survive.
After an explosion, Quinlan notices a path to an underground tunnel and orders Jeisel to accompany him while K'kruhk, A'sharad Hett and some Galactic Marines hold off the Morgukai. Quin and Jeisel find the conduits to the shield generator and place thermal detonators around the facility.
Once these explode and bring the shield down, Aayla Secura and her starfighter squad are able to destroy the ion cannon.
The enemy begins to pull back, but the fight is not over yet. Vos orders his companions to hold the ground they have gained while he returns to their HQ and prepares to move it forward.
Deep inside the Separatist base, an explosion destroys some machinery and injures some Morgukai who are too close. A haggard Master Tholme steps from the smoke; grim determination on his face.
Elsewhere Sora Bulq and Bok discuss the explosion at the cooling planet. Bok figures it will take a week to fix, which starts an argument between Rath Kelko and Bok. Dooku, who is observing via the holocomm, chides his men for not being able to stop a lone man. Kelkko says he has an idea that just may work.
At the local cantina Khaleen meets up with with Skorr and two of his Anzati trainers. He tells Khaleen to pass the following on to Quin: He will slip inside the shield and make a full accounting to Dooku. He will do this because he is loyal.
Back at the Republic camp, Master Vos reports back to Master Rancisis letting him know that they have secured the rim and will be moving the base camp forward. Rancisis wishes they had someone on the inside of the Seps compound. Vos reminds him that they have Tholme helping them.
Master Rancisis leaves as Aayla Secura enters and tries to talk with Quin about their encounter on Honoghr. She promises that she will always be there for him in his time of darkness.
Quin returns to his quarters and finds Khaleen playing with his holocron. She gives him the instructions from Skorr, but tells him that it's a trap. He understands that and holds her close. Later after she is asleep, he pulls his holocron back out and records this note: Soon he will meet with the second Sith, Sora Bulq and he will kill him.

An Arcade of the Weird and Wonderful: A Punk CommuniquéPosted by Nicholas Rombes, July 23, 2009 1:40 pm No Comments Filed under: Contributors.
During my four years of researching and writing A Cultural Dictionary of Punk: 1974-1982, I discovered (and in some cases rediscovered) many weird and wonderful things. For instance, I learned that the phrase "punk rock music" was used in 1978 on the floor of the House of Commons by British Prime Minister James Callaghan. And also that the pogo dance, so often associated with punk concerts in the late 1970s, was a less ritualized form of frenzied dancing characteristic of some Pentecostal worship services. Here are three of the weirder and wonderful-er discoveries.
Helen Keller
The product of Norman Durkee, from Seattle, the band Helen Keller never played a live show, and recorded only one single, in 1978. But what a single. The B-side, "Dump on the Chumps," is alright, but the A-side, "Surfin with Steve and E. D. Amin" is the most fun, gloom-sodden, terrifying, genre-bending song mentioned in A Cultural Dictionary of Punk. The voice is low and menacing, like someone shouting through gravel into the dark void. But then the soaring, soprano — sung by Valerie Yockey — extravagant and baroque and full of melody; it humbles you that no combination of words can do justice to the weird beauty of this song. "That chorus is a take-off on the Beach Boys," Durkee told me, but instead of "shouldn't have lied, now" it's "shouldn't have died, now." There are facts about Helen Keller, the song "Surfin' with Steve and E. D. Amin," and Norman Durkee that I should tell you:
1. Norman Durkee was born in Tacoma, Washington, in 1943, and sat next to Ted Bundy in class.Norman Durkee was born in Tacoma, Washington, in 1943, and sat next to Ted Bundy in class.
2. The song was written by Durkee and Douglas Beckowitz.
3. Here are the players:
Distorted Electric Piano: Durkee
Lead Guitar: Beckowitz
Bass: Dan Dean (also played the electric drill)
Drums: Fred Zeufeldt
Lead Vocals: Durkee
Background Soprano: Valerie Yockey
Engineered and Mixed by Dr. A. (Richard Maltby) and Durkee
4. As for the distorted electric piano (above), which gives the song its deeply eerie and menacing vibe, which seems to sustain forever, Durkee said: 'The massive rhythm guitar sound is actually a Fender Rhodes electric piano sent through a Peavy PA amp with all the settings set to maximum for distortion and sustain. The sound was so dense I could not play complete chords. I had to play open 4ths and 5ths."
5. As to why punk — and the weird sounds of Third Generation Rock — emerged at nearly the same time in different places, Durkee refers to biologist Rupert Sheldrake and his theory of morphic fields, which suggests that phenomena (biological but also, potentially, artistic) become more possible the more frequently they occur. In other words, lots of strange music was being produced in the mid to late 1970s, in many places, simultaneously, against all reason and logic.
The Road Warrior
Might The Road Warrior be an allegory for the ideological and aesthetic divide between the hippies and the punks? The film (its full title is Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior) was directed by George Miller and released in 1981. Its costumes and tightly choreographed chaos suggest the punk imagination. There are the Mohawks, yes, and the leather, and the violence. There is Humongous. But beyond that, there is the sad glory of a post-apocalyptic world. "In the future," the ominous voice tells us from the movie's trailer, "cities will become deserts. Roads will become battlefields." Bands like Pere Ubu and Destroy All Monsters from cities like Cleveland and Detroit had already conjured these images; Miller's genius in The Road Warrior was to go outside the cities into the open spaces with their natural desolation and beauty. This is what cities might become, the movie whispered in secret, if we are lucky. The movie's precursors include The Searchers (John Ford, 1956), North by Northwest (Alfred Hitchcock, 1959), Duel (Steven Spielberg, 1971), and Picnic At Hanging Rock (Peter Weir, 1975), where open spaces suggest a sort of blank terror, and where the human form itself is the alien element. In an issue of Stop! magazine, John Holmstrom (of Punk magazine fame) said this:
Road Warrior is the first film to capture the real essence of punk.Road Warrior is the first film to capture the real essence of punk....An underlying theme in this movie is the war between the hippies and the punks. The punks, led by Humongous and starring Wes, want the gasoline that the hippie tribe is hoarding. They kill and rape any hippies they meet up with, they torture them and burn them and get what they want. The hippies live in an armored compound that protects their school busses and gasoline, and wear long hair and robes. Mad Max saves a hippie to pick up some free gas, then joins the tribe after the punks kill his dog.
By 1981, punk had evolved westward, becoming louder, faster, more aggressive. Strangely, the elections of Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher fulfilled the punk repudiation of the hippies. But that's another story.
Ephraim P. Noble
I hesitated about mentioning Ephraim here on the Powell's blog, but since the book would not have been possible without him, I felt a certain obligation. Ephraim wrote some of the entries in the book, as well as the fiery, apocalyptic postscript, and is the subject of several entries, as well. His story is long and tortuous. The only thing that matters now is that he lives in the subterranean American tunnels, from where he sends partial and cryptic messages. For reasons that I cannot divulge at this point, I am obligated to release and publish his communiqués, unedited. For the sake of convenience, I do this at the Ephraim P. Noble Archive.
Oh, and he claims to have "invented" punk.

The following sections describe two techniques for interconnecting the input ports of microwave filters suitable for sorting signals into large numbers of contiguous frequency bands. Both techniques are capable of extension to very large numbers of channels, and both are believed to be new and useful. Both have been tested at microwave frequencies and give results in reasonable agreement with those predicted. One technique uses the impedance transforming property of a uniform transmission Iine to achieve the equivalent of the directional filter. It has proved especially valuable in the design of practical filters providing large numbers of channels in several microwave frequency bands. The other is based upon a width-tapered waveguide, which serves as a space-distributed high-pass filter.

I didn't believe when I discovered that there was this beauty in my state, Rio Grande do Sul, and I didn't know it! It's one of the most beautiful things I've seen in my life. Totally worthy!
Amazing place!
If you are going to visit just the Canyons you can go with your own car.
To visit the fall and made trails is recommend to go with a guide.
Beautiful! !
Personally we preferred Canyon Itaimbezinho but Fortaliza is also a worthwhile trip. In the last three years a bit more than half the road has been paved so the trip is easier than in the past. Unless it has been very rainy you can make the drive in any two wheel drive vehicle. As with all the canyons the earlier...
Really nice trekkings to perform in the canyons (Itaimbezinho & Fortaleza). During summer, the water level in the canyons is higher, which prevent agencies to do some trekkings (rio do boi for ex). The views can also be very badly impacted by the humidity clouds in the canyon (we have not seen a lot from Fortaleza). Best period to enjoy...
Cannyon da Fortaleza, at the Parque Nacional dos Aparados da Serra, along with his brother Cannyon do Itaimbezinho are some if the greatest nature artwork.
Not very near to small Cambará town, and seems more far due to the terrible road to access.
However, in the past 20 years, I've been visiting the place several times.
Driv e with patience,...
A place where we can admire the power of nature and the splendor of the canyons.
It is a quiet place where you can take beautiful photos.
It was very cold, but we enjoyed a lot.
A must see! Extremely beautiful, peaceful natural place... I went during summer (December) so it was hot! I want to go back during winter. Bring water. No bathroom or food facilities, which I think is great because it avoids trash. Not easy to reach with normal car. We hired a guide with a truck and it was a great idea...
This is a truly stunningly beautiful natural area to do sightseeing. It is far away from urbanised areas so that adds to the peaceful atmosphere.
Really nice place.. The road to the park has a lot of rocks/gravel but it is worth going. To walk in the border of a cliff that is 700 meters high, see the waterfalls going all the way down from the top and having a more than 100K clear view is something that you can do only a few times.....
A must see for anyone coming to Porto Alegre or Florianopolis - Fortaleza and Itaimbezinho are the two best-known of over 20 canyons belonging to the same geologic range. Located over 1000m high, they are located about 30km from the ocean. Very nice combination of deep green of highland grass, trees and the gray of stone cliffs. The outdoor adventurous...

Under the Tim Beckman and Bill Cubit regimes, Illini football has gone 10-2 versus FCS and FBS non power five conference teams. That's the good news. The bad news? They're 4-24 against the power five. In other words, Illini football is not a bonafide Big Ten program right now, and hasn't been for a half-decade. We crunched the numbers like a Wall Street type trying to utilize the Black-Sholes investing model to maximize returns on his options.
The numbers are brutal, even when you include Ron Zook's last season to do some positive window-dressing and cherry-picking.Follow paulmbanks

Springtime Tactics
Bay Flats Lodge on San Antonio Bay By Captain Chris Martin The cool front that rolled through the mid-coast region on Thursday made for clear skies, and the ensuing atmospheric high-pressure system made for a slow start. As a result, yesterday's party of four with Capt. Nick Dahlman struggled throughout the morning hours in their attempt to locate an active bite. Between Thursday and Friday, bay water temperatures dropped nearly 12-degrees, and the fish had clearly decided it to be in their best interest to wait until the warming period of the afternoon. When the fish did finally decide they were hungry, Capt. Nick's team discovered that the plastic paddle tail color that enticed most of the fish was plum/chartreuse.

1) we should only care if certain races are insulted, therfore only holding certain races to standards we should all adhere to, and subsequently, implying that one race is superior and another inferior...that one ultimately deserves it and the other gets a pass on inappropiate behavior..soley based on their race.
2) you're white and you have it good only because of your race, and accomplishments of people of color/whites are ultimately marginalized, because otherwise, it's only special due to their race and not the individual...'the first black to'
30 we can use racism to diminish and control whites by assuming they are racist, and call them racist, because they as whites have it coming and we need to hold them to standards that we don't expect from other races.
....you're basically implying people of color ARE inferior and should be treated as such.
His post was not even worthy of a reply, this is the same poster who was offend over the movie Avatar
The person who is certain, and who claims divine warrant for his certainty, belongs now to the infancy of our species. Hitch~

Your Office Could Be Making You Sick
A personal office would be a dream come true for many of us — living the good life with the door closed! OK, so having an office wouldn't solve every workplace qualm, but research shows that your argument for one could be stronger than you may have thought.
There are plenty of factors that make us irritable at work, and it turns out that the layout of our offices could be partially to blame. Research has shown that the lack of personal space that's a given with open-plan offices "caused high levels of stress, conflict, high blood pressure and a high staff turnover." Besides high blood pressure, research suggested that workers in open-plan settings are more prone to exhaustion and the flu.
Worker productivity can take a hit with this type of layout because noisy co-workers break concentration. Researchers added insecurity as another reason why open-plan offices aren't good for employees — everyone can see what's happening on your computer screen and what you're saying on the phone. What are your feelings toward the way your office is set up?

LinkedIn has attracted more than 300 million members, the majority of whom are business professionals; most of your potential prospects and clients now have LinkedIn accounts.
To use LinkedIn to generate new business opportunities for yourself or your company, start with these five proven strategies:
1. Understand your company's business strategy
Before you start doing anything, make sure you have a good understanding of where your business is going and what your leaders are hoping to achieve. Identify the key stakeholders in your business, and study their mandate (i.e. how they are being measured).
2. Develop a strong LinkedIn profile
This is the most important element because in most cases your profile will determine whether your prospective client is going to take you seriously and engage with you. Your personal value proposition should be articulated clearly. Include recommendations and client testimonials to back up your value proposition. Clearly explain the services you offer and how your prospective client will benefit.
3. Create a focused plan
Consider who to target… think about the right seniority levels, management categories, geographic locations, type of industries, and company sizes. If you do this before starting a campaign, you can be focused and organized from the beginning.
Give careful thought to how to connect with specific individuals. You can use a combination of push, pull or reaching out through intermediaries. This means you can push content and requests to people, pull them towards you by publishing content, or simply use shared contacts to introduce you. Once connected to someone, execute a well thought out content and interaction plan.
Your goal should be to nurture your connections, encourage them to subscribe to other platforms you use, and – in the long run – to convert them (e.g. request a meeting, ask for a proposal, attend an event, or participate in a survey).
4. Be selective
Focus on decision makers with whom you would like to interact. I would extend this to other people within the organisation who may not necessarily be the budget holder or sponsor, but may be a technical evaluator, recommender or possibly a gate keeper. You ideally need to influence the entire "buying centre". You will also want to connect with people from the media, especially journalists and editors who publish articles (online or offline) in publications read by your potential clients. Also connect with past and present clients and employers.
5. Moderate all conversations and interactions
The type of conversations and the persons conducting the conversations will set the tone and will serve as a determinant of whether your connections are going to be positively influenced or not. The most important thing is to always be genuine in your interactions. You want to build credibility and trust over time. Once you earn credibility, you are in a position to ask for a meeting or – even better – the prospective client will reach out to you.

'More families should care for elderly loved ones at home' say senior government politicians
Caring Times Latest
Two senior government figures have suggested that British families should care for their elderly relatives in thier own homes, rather than pay for them to move to care homes.
Writing in the Telegraph in early October, Christopher Hope, and Laura Hughes reported that at a Conservative Party Conference fringe meeting, British secretary of state for business, innovation and skills, Sajid Javid said more families should consider putting up parents or grandparents in their spare rooms to ease the crisis in old age care and boost family life.
"My parents are from Asia and they taught me that family was at the heart of everything," Mr Javid told the fringe meeting. He said that he had been surprised, during a spell working for Deutsche Bank in Singapore, to find that whenever "we went to look for a property if was advertised … Read More »
Diabetes guidance for CQC care home inspectors published
Caring Times Latest
New guidelines to improve the quality of care for people with diabetes living in care homes have been released. The guidelines provide a series of indicators to help inspectors to assess whether a service is meeting the particular needs of people with diabetes.
The guidance has been published by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) having been developed in collaboration with Professor Alan Sinclair, from Diabetes Frail, and the JBDS (Joint British Diabetes Societies) Task Group.
Entitled 'Guidance for CQC staff: Inspecting the quality of care for residents with diabetes mellitus living in care homes', the publication explains why people living with diabetes in care settings can be particularly vulnerable and dependent.
An assessment and support framework has also been included so that clinical personnel in care homes are able to determine that the residents' diabetes needs are being met thoroughly in … Read More »
PJ Care lifts care workers' pay by 15%
Caring Times Latest
Specialist neurological care provider PJ Care has announced an unprecedented increase in pay for their care staff. The increase, which took effect from the 20th September, sees care staff earning between £7.30 and £8.30 per hour, rising by at least a further 20p an hour in February 2016.
PJ Care's HR manager Liz Morgan said this meant PJ Care now paid their care staff more than the Government National Living wage of £7.20 which comes into effect from April 2016.
"We are delighted to be able to offer our care staff this increase in their hourly rate," said Ms Morgan.
"We wanted to show them that they are integral to the service we provide, they are the ones who provide the compassionate care to our residents that has become synonymous with PJ Care."
PJ Care's chief executive, Johann van Zyl said that, … Read More »
Health and social care bodies make joint call for increased funding
Caring Times Latest
A number of organisations representing consumers, providers and commissioners of adult social care have called on government to halt the steady decline in resources available for older and disabled people.
Speaking together, the Association of Directors of Adult Social Services (ADASS), the Care and Support Alliance, the Care Provider Alliance and the NHS Confederation say the social care sector is in danger of a deepening crisis which is compromising the dignity, health and wellbeing of older and disabled people, their families and carers, the workforce as well as the economy. Their submission warns that:
Fewer people are receiving state-funded care, leading to higher levels of unmet need displaced most likely to unpaid carers and the NHS. Additionally, providers say that people paying for their own care are paying more than those who are funded by the state.
More people are living … Read More »
GMB calls for better funding of social care
Caring Times Latest
The GMB union has added its voice to the many calls for better funding of social care. A GMB motion calling for fair funding for social care was debated and carried at the TUC Congress in Brighton on 13th September.
GMB national officer Justin Bowden said years of chronic underfunding by successive governments had made today's safety net one of 'cradle to care home door'.
"A time bomb is ticking under the system of care for our elderly and vulnerable, the product of chronic underfunding and society's failure to face up to its responsibilities to those – who paid tax and national insurance all their lives – in their times of need," Mr Bowden said.
"Unlike the NHS, which can still be held up as a beacon of our values, for the one in 20 of us who will go into … Read More »
Small Business Commissioner's role should include public bodies, says Care England
Caring Times Latest
Following a Business, Innovation and Skills consultation on the appointment of a Small Business Commissioner, care providers' representative body Care England says there is scope for the proposed Small Business Commissioner to assist providers and thereby avoid high legal costs for both parties.
Care England chief executive Professor Martin Green said independent care providers were heavily dependent on public sector purchasers who are monopoly commissioners.
"As such there is a considerable power imbalance when it comes to contracts being changed by the commissioner or payments from them being delayed," said Prof. Green.
Care England is adamant that if the Commissioner role is to have teeth it should cover circumstances beyond business-to-business relationships and instead consider the relationship between public bodies such as local authorities and Clinical Commissioning Groups with private and charitable providers.
"Such providers collectively employ more people than the NHS … Read More »
Nursing homes welcome chief inspector's comments on funding
Caring Times Latest
The Registered Nursing Home Association (RNHA) has welcomed comments by the Care Quality Commission's chief inspector of adult social care, Andrea Sutcliffe, about the importance of adequate funding in enabling nursing homes and other care providers to deliver good quality care.
RNHA chief executive Frank Ursell said it was gratifying that Mrs Sutcliffe had felt able to acknowledge the funding crisis now faced by those in the front line of social care.
"Mrs Sutcliffe had reminded the local authorities who commission social care that they need to understand what the true cost of care is, what true quality looks like and to make sure that providers are given the necessary funding to achieve expected standards," said Mr Ursell.
"We, in the nursing home sector, applaud her for saying what needs to be said. Quality costs money. If the responsible public bodies, … Read More »
'This has to stop' says abuse charity after CQC moves residents out of care home at night
Caring Times Latest
In the wake of the urgent closures by the Care Quality Commission of the Merok Park nursing home in Surrey last December and the more recent closure of the Old Village School Hall nursing home in Bedfordshire, the charity Action on Elder Abuse (AEA) has called for a change in the law to protect residents affected by urgent closures.
AEA says that, in the case of Merok Park, the transfer arrangement collapsed into confusion and chaos, with 26 residents moved in winter, at night and in the cold. In the case of the Old Village School Hall some 50 residents were moved, many after 6.30pm and some after 10pm, with some relatives describing the process as having caused huge distress to old, vulnerable people.
AEA has written to care minister Alistair Burt, calling for a change in the legal status … Read More »
'Our members will no longer pay retainers to GP Practices,' says Care England
Caring Times Latest
Care home operators who are members of the representative body Care England say they will no longer pay retainers to GP practices. Care England chief executive Professor Martin Green said many care homes throughout the country have to pay GPs to visit residents, and that this was clearly at odds with a health service for all.
"Our members will no longer pay retainers to GP Practices," said Prof. Green.
"This should be no surprise to GPs as we have been making arguments regarding their unfairness for many years. One of our members is paying £70,000 per month and this is unacceptable. NHS chief executive Simon Stevens has gone on record in his Five Year Forward Plan for the NHS, emphasising the importance of care home residents having the access to healthcare that they would if they were living in their … Read More »
Carers held in high esteem
Caring Times latest
A YouGov poll commissioned by care provider HC-One has found that many people rank carers as more important than lawyers, bankers and politicians. In a survey of 1,507 adults in Great Britain people were asked to rank a list of ten jobs in order of importance. The emergency services topped the list, closely followed by teachers and carers. Lawyers, bankers and politicians were placed at the bottom of most people's list. Jobs were ranked in the following order:
Doctor, nurse, police officer, firefighter, teacher, carer, dentist, lawyer, politician, banker.
HC-One chairman Dr Chai Patel said it was heartening to see the public value care workers alongside the emergency services and the teaching profession.
"Having worked closely with hundreds of inspirational carers over many years I know that their kindness, compassion, thoughtfulness and care makes a huge difference to the quality of … Read More »

Anyone searching for long-term gains in natural gas has been through an epic journey in the past year or so. From January 2011 to April 2012, natural gas prices fell an astounding 80%, dragging energy stocks down to new multi-year lows and creating big losses for many energy investors. Take a look at its descending trajectory in the chart below...
But even though on the surface this may look like a colossal failure, the reality is that this decrease is actually a reflection of the industry's success. Energy companies were so successful at extracting more gas from the ground that the market simply became oversupplied and prices crashed. It's simple economics. The supply/demand imbalance was exacerbated by an infrastructure that hasn't fully migrated to a wide-spread natural gas consumption.
But now, after a tough year and half for natural gas and energy stocks, the tide has begun to shift. After falling to a four-year low below $2 in April, natural gas has quickly rallied back up 25% in the past six months. Take a look at the extended move lower and recent rebound...
Rising prices or even price stability will have a positive effect on the energy industry in general. Old natural gas projects will consequently become more profitable while new projects will have less risk of reporting losses. In the meantime, as more electric utilities convert from coal to natural gas, the manufacturing infrastructure will start to increasingly demand more natural gas.
But the recent jump in natural gas prices is just a shadow of what's about to happen.
Simply put, the United States could soon become the new Saudi Arabia of the world in terms of energy production. In fact, The Associated Press just released a new report predicting the United States could soon pass Saudi Arabia as the world's largest energy producer because of its huge oil and natural gas reserves, and growing production capacities.
The Department of Energy is forecasting that U.S. production of crude and other liquid hydrocarbons, including biofuels, will average 11.4 million barrels per day next year. With Saudi Arabia projected to produce 11.6 million barrels, it's a virtual dead heat between the two countries. Further down the line, Citibank is projecting domestic production levels of 13 million to 15 million barrels by 2020, which would potentially be enough to dethrone Saudi Arabia as the energy king of the world.
If this prediction proves correct, then North American energy stocks will likely be in position for huge gains. There will be many different sectors and trends to profit from, but six stand out as the defining forces of the booming energy industry in the years to come.
|Integrated and majors
Large diversified energy companies are one of the most conservative ways to invest in energy. Having global businesses and multiple product and service lines, these integrated players such as Exxon Mobil Corp (NYSE: XOM) and Conoco Phillips (NYSE: COP) are more diversified and equipped to navigate volatility in one market or region of the world. Integrated energy companies also typically pay a dividend, an extra attraction in world on rock-bottom interest rates.
|Exploration and production
These are the companies that own, buy and lease land used to drill and explore fossil-fuel resources like crude oil and natural gas. This is one of the more aggressive methods of investing in energy, because the price of crude and natural gas heavily affects earnings and cash flows of exploration and production companies. This has weighed on industry leaders such as Apache Corp. (NYSE: APA) and Anadarko Corp. (NYSE: APK), both down about 25% on the year for instance. But this volatility also means more upside as exploration and production companies provide solid leverage to rising crude and gas prices.
|Service providers
Service providers specialize in helping exploration and production companies extract crude and natural gas. This includes a wide range of services but most frequently consists of drilling services. Service provider\'s revenue is driven by capital spending from exploration and production companies, so the two have a strong correlation with each other. Service providers are more aggressive than integrated energy stocks but less aggressive than exploration and production.
|Basic materials
Selling consumable goods to energy companies extracting millions of barrels of oil and natural gas per year is a good business. The production process to bring crude and natural gas out of the ground is intense and requires a lot of specialty equipment and resources like sand, water, chemicals and other consumable goods. Carbo Ceramics Inc. (NYSE: CRR) is one of my favorite stocks in this segment. Carbo sells ceramic proppant, a key ingredient used in the hydraulic fracturing boom hitting North America. The company\'s share price is down 41% this year, which has pushed Carbo deep into value territory.
This is a highly insulated industry. It\'s just not that easy or inexpensive to build an international network of pipelines capable of transporting millions of barrels of crude and natural gas every year. Pipeline companies such as Buckeye Partners LP (NYSE: BPL) and El Paso Pipeline Partner LP (NYSE: EPB), which are incorporated as limited partnerships, require them to pay out 90% of their earnings to shareholders. This creates a solid income stream for many investors.
There is a severe shortage of refining capacities in North America, considered to be a "bottle neck" in the production of gasoline and other consumable petroleum products. But regardless, refiners have had a huge year, driven by record crack spreads that made refining a barrel of crude very profitable. This has Western Refining (NYSE: WNR) up 86% on the year and industry competitor Valero Energy Corp (NYSE: VLO) up 42%. Looking forward, capacities remaining tight in the face of growing production should provide long-term pricing power.
Risks to Consider: The regulatory environment will play a critical factor in new drilling permits and total production levels. Although permits are back on the rise in the Gulf of Mexico, access to additional domestic energy resources in Alaska and the East Coast is still in question.
Action to Take --> In spite of the recent bounce, natural gas is still trading at historically low levels. Energy stocks look the same, trading near multi-year lows in spite of strong earnings and cash flows. This makes this the perfect time to take a serious look at the group and select your favorite stocks. Everyone is fearful of energy stocks now, so it's time to be greedy and jump in ahead of the crowd.
