In the games
Norman is also the player character's father in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald no matter which gender is selected. The other gender choice (and therefore the rival) is the child of Professor Birch.
Although he is the first Gym Leader encountered, he refuses to battle until the player has at least four Badges. Before stating this, he first introduces the player to Wally (secondary rival) which is when the Pokémon catching tutorial happens. Once he is beaten, he gives the player the Balance Badge, as well as TM42 (Facade) in Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald or TM67 (Retaliate) in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.
Norman and his family are originally from Olivine City in Johto. He, as well as the player, have just moved to Hoenn so that he could take up the position of Gym Leader. People have come to describe him as someone who "lives for Pokémon".
Norman also provides special items scanned in via e-Reader to the player.
Norman has known Birch since their school days.[1] According to the TV show Trouble Talk, they went to college together.

Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald
- First visit
- "Hm? Well, if it isn't <player>! So you're all finished moving in? I'm surprised that you managed to get here by yourself. Oh, I see. You're with your Pokémon. Hmm… Then I guess you're going to become a Trainer like me, <player>. That's great news! I'll be looking forward to it!
- "Hm? You're… Uh… Oh, right. You're Wally, right?"
- "Hm. I see. <player>, you heard that, right? Go with Wally and make sure that he safely catches a Pokémon. Wally, here, I'll loan you my Pokémon."
- "Hm. I'll give you a Poké Ball, too. Go for it!"
- After helping Wally
- "So, did it work out?"
- "Now… <player>, if you want to become a strong Trainer, here's my advice. Head for Rustboro City beyond this town. There, you should challenge the Gym Leader, Roxanne. After her, go on to other Pokémon Gyms and defeat their Leaders. Collect Badges from them, understood? Of course, I'm a Gym Leader, too. We'll battle one day, <player>. But that's only after you become stronger, <player>."
- If the player has no Badges
- "Hm? Aren't you going to the Pokémon Gym in Rustboro City? There's no challenge for me to battle a greenhorn Trainer. <player>, I want you to challenge me when you become a lot stronger. I'll battle you, <player>, when you can show me four Gym Badges, okay?
- If the player has Badge
- "I see… So, you've beaten the Gym Leader in Rustboro City. But there are many more Trainers who are stronger than you, <player>. Across the sea in Dewford Town is a Gym Leader named Brawly. You should go challenge him."
- If the player has 2-3 Badges
- "Hm… <player>, you have gotten stronger. I can tell by the number of Badges that you've earned."
- Before battle
- "Hm… So, you did get four Gym Badges. Fine, as I promised, we will have a Pokémon battle. <player>… I'm so happy that I can have a real battle with my own child. But, a battle is a battle! I will do everything in my power as a Gym Leader to win. <player>, you'd better give it your best shot, too!"
- Being defeated
- "… I… I can't… I can't believe it. <player>… I lost to <player>? But, rules are rules! Here, take this."
- After being defeated
- "With that Badge, the Defense of all your Pokémon will increase. Pokémon that know the HM move Surf will be able to travel over water. This is my gift to you. <player>, I'm sure you can use it correctly."
- "TM42 contains Facade. It doubles the power of moves if the Pokémon is poisoned, paralyzed, or burned. It might be able to turn a bad situation into an advantage."
- "As the Gym Leader, I can't express how upset I am… But as a father, it makes me both happy and a little sad. It's odd…"
- "Oh, yes… Wally's parents came calling earlier. They said that they had something they wanted to give you, <player>."RS
- "<player>, you should go visit your mother every so often. I'm going to stay here and redouble my training. It would bother me as a Trainer to not avenge my loss to you, <player>!"
- Later visits
- "<player>, how are things going? The world of Pokémon is deep. I honestly think that no amount of training would ever be enough.
- Before rematchE
- "<player>… I had a feeling that you would come. I would never refuse to accept a challenge from you. You do understand, don't you? Inside a Gym, it doesn't matter that we are a parent and child. No, because we are parent and child, we owe it to each other to do the best we can. Isn't that right, <player>?"
- Being defeated in a rematchE
- "Uh… Haha… Maybe that was going too hard…"
- After being defeated in a rematchE
- "<player>… What is your dream? My dream… Hahaha… It has already come true, actually."
- Receiving e-Reader BerryRS
- "Hi, <player>! I just received a very rare Berry. I'd like you to have it."
- Route 105 (via Match Call)E
- "Oh, <player>? Where are you now? It sounds windy wherever you are. I just heard from Devon's Mr. Stone about your PokéNav, so I decided to give you a call. It sounds like you're doing fine, so that's fine with me. You take care now."
- Match CallE
- After registering him
- "In Rustboro, there's a man that goes by the odd name of the Cutter. If you're in the area, you should pay him a visit."
- After earning the Knuckle Badge
- "Hm… Little by little, but also very surely, you're getting tougher, <player>. The stronger you get, the farther and higher you soar from Mother and me… This feeling is hard to explain."
- After earning the Heat Badge
- "I see… You've collected four Gym Badges… There's no avoiding it now. We will battle like I promised. Come anytime. We'll all be waiting for you!"
- After defeating him
- "<Player>! You'd better go visit your Mother every so often. I'm going to remain here and redouble my training. The way of battling is deep and unforgiving!"
- After obtaining the Magma Emblem
- "Hiyah! Haah! Dwah! …Oh? <player>! You caught me in the middle of a Pokémon training session!"
- After defeating Champion, before rematch is available
- "<Player>! Who would've thought you'd become the Pokémon League Champion… Okay! I won't be left behind!"
- When rematch is available
- "Hm? <Player>? What good timing! This time, I'm going to challenge you to battle. I'm waiting in the Petalburg Gym. Accept my challenge anytime!"
- After a rematch
- "…You amaze me, <player>. How much higher will you soar?"
- Littleroot Town
- "Hm? Hey, it's <player>! It's been a while since I saw you, but you look…stronger, somehow. That's the impression I get. But your old man hasn't given up yet! Oh yes, I have something for you. This came to you from someone named Mr. Briney."
- "Hm, a Ticket for a ferry? If I recall, there are ferry ports in Slateport and Lilycove."
- "<player>, if you have ambition as a Trainer, go to the Battle Tower. It should teach you that there is no end to a Trainer's chosen path."RS
- "I'd better get back to Petalburg Gym. Mom, thanks for looking after the house while I'm away."
Pokémon Black 2 and White 2
- Before battle (first round)
- "I will do everything in my power as a Trainer to win. You'd better give it your best shot, too!"
- Before battle (second round)
- "I moved from Olivine City to Petalburg City and became stronger… I'll use all of that strength now! You'd better give it your best shot, too!"
- Before battle (final round)
- "I lost to my own child… I rethought everything about myself, so now there is no way I can lose! I'll do everything in my power to win! You'd better give it your best shot, too!"
- Being defeated
- "… I… I can't… I can't believe it. I lost to you?"
- If the player is defeated
- "We both gave everything we had. That was a wonderful match."
- After being defeated
- "I'm going to redouble my training by taking on this tournament! It would bother me as a Trainer to not avenge my loss to you!"
- After winning
- "This time, my victory was a matter of luck. I have to continue to pursue strength and be able to win anytime!"
- In the lobby, after the tournament
- "You went all out and earned that victory… You're a wonderful Trainer! I want my kid to learn from you."
Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire
- First visit
- "Not bad… It was a good battle."
- "Come back and challenge me again anytime. I'll be looking forward to seeing you and your Pokémon when you're a bit stronger."
- "Hm?"
- "Why, if it isn't <player>! So you've finished moving in? I see… Well… I guess we shouldn't stand around out here talking. Do you want to come in for a bit? We can talk in the Gym."
- After earning the Balance Badge
- "You look like you've been working hard, Wally. It's clear even without a battle."
- "<Player>… Considering how much you and Wally have grown, you should be able to handle what lies beyond the sea on Route 118 now. There are far stronger Pokémon and Trainers waiting for you on Hoenn's east coast. Continue your journey and your adventures there. I know you'll do your best!"
- "Wally… I look forward to seeing you and your Pokémon grow stronger together. <player>? Well, take care of yourself out there. Don't forget to drop by Littleroot to visit your mother from time to time!"
- "Learn a lot!"
- "…"
- "…Hm?"
- "Hahahah! What a coincidence! I caught myself thinking the same thing."
- "Yes. I know exactly what you mean."
- First visit
- "You know, I sure was surprised that you managed to get here by yourself. Ah… I see. You're making a good start on your team! Mm-hmm! Then I guess you're going to become a Trainer like me, <player>? Now that's something to look forward to!"
- "Hm? Aren't you… You're Wally, right?"
- "Mm-hmm. I see."
- "<Player>! You heard all that, right? You go with Wally, and make sure that he safely catches a Pokémon."
- "Wally, here. I'll lend you one of my Pokémon."
- "Hmm… I'll give you a Poké Ball, too, so go give it your best!"
- After helping Wally
- "So did it go well?"
- "Hmm. That boy will be worth keeping an eye on. But for now… <player>! If you want to become strong as a Trainer, listen to my advice. First head for Rustboro City, which lies beyond this town. There you should challenge the Gym Leader, Roxanne. After her, go on to the other Pokémon Gyms and defeat their Leaders as well. Collect Badges from them, understand? Of course, I'm a Gym Leader, too. I'm sure we'll battle one day. But that will only be after you've become stronger, <player>."
- If talked to again
- "Hm? Weren't you going to go to the Pokémon Gym in Rustboro? Sorry, but I don't get pleasure from battling greenhorn Trainers. There's no challenge. I want you to grow stronger before I would consider taking you on in battle. Come back when you've got at least, hmm…four Badges! Then I'll take you on, <player>."
- First time entering his room
- "Hm… So you did get four Gym Badges."
- "Then, as I promised, we will have a Pokémon battle."
- Before battle
- "<player>… It makes me happier than I can really describe. Being able to have a real battle with my own son/daughter like this. But a battle is a battle! I will do everything within my power as a Gym Leader to win! You'd better give it your best shot, too, <player>!"
- Being defeated
- "…! Impossible…"
- After being defeated
- "I can't believe it. I lost to <player>?"
- "… … You've come this far…"
- "That's how it is, then! I will give you this."
- "Having that Badge will ensure that Pokémon up to Lv. 60 will obey you, even if you received them in trades. Pokémon that know the HM move Surf will also be able to travel over water now. And this is my gift to you, <player>. I'm sure you'll be able to use it well."
- "Retaliate will allow you to take revenge for a fallen team member. Its power will be doubled if you have a Pokémon use it in the very next move right after an ally faints. I hope you and your Pokémon will be diligent enough to use it wisely."
- "… Sigh."
- "As the Gym Leader, I can't express how frustrated I am."
- "But, as a father, it makes me both happy and a little sad. It's odd."
- "… Come on, <player>."
- "I'll see you on your way. Let's get out of here."
- After becoming Champion
- "<player>! How's your training going? I'm proud as a parent that you've become the Champion, son/daughter. Still, you must not think that you have reached your peak as a Trainer. It's only after you reach a certain height that the view opens up, and you see how far the road stretches. I want to see you trying to hone yourself and your skills even further. I'll be behind you, <player>."
- After obtaining Eon Ticket
- Before obtaining Mega Bracelet
- "Hmm? Is that an Eon Ticket you have there? Hm…it's been a good 11 years since I last saw a ticket like this… The Eon Ticket is awarded to those who have earned the right to tread upon the soil of Southern Island… In short, it is awarded to those who can wield Mega Evolution, thanks to their bonds with their Pokémon. Hmm. But, <player>, you don't seem to have the skill to handle Mega Evolution yet. Continue to journey across the wide lands and sea of Hoenn, and when you do gain the power to use Mega Evolution, come back here. That is when I will teach you just what the Eon Ticket means."
- After obtaining Mega Bracelet
- "Hmm? Is that an Eon Ticket you have there? Hm…it's been a good 11 years since I last saw a ticket like this… The Eon Ticket is awarded to those who have earned the right to tread upon the soil of Southern Island… In short, it is awarded to those who can wield Mega Evolution, thanks to their bonds with their Pokémon. Hm-hmm! That Mega Bracelet that glitters on your wrist there proves that you are capable of using Mega Evolution. That seals it. Come with me, <player>!"
- "I'll be waiting here. Take care out there by yourself, <player>. I have faith that you're up to the task!"
- "Welcome back, <player>. So you actually managed to find it at Southern Island… The Eon Pokémon! Well, then… Should we head back to the Gym?"
- "Your meeting LatiasOR/LatiosAS is no less than a miracle. Don't let such a precious gift go to waste. I hope you'll continue this journey of yours, with just as much zeal for Pokémon as you've shown so far."
- Post-credits
- "Hm? What is it?"
- "Ah… About that… I've been meaning to tell you, but… It now looks like I'm going to have to be at the Gym that day."
- "I'm sorry, honey…"
- "Hmm. That's true. We already paid for them, so…"
- After becoming Champion
- "Hm?"
- "Why, if it isn't <player>! It's been some time since I last saw you, but you look…stronger, somehow. That's the impression I get. But your old man hasn't given up yet!"
- "Oh, and before I forget… I was thinking of giving these to you."
- "They're tickets to the star show that's being held at the Mossdeep Space Center. I was really planning to go with your mom, but… It looks like I've got to rush back to the Gym in Petalburg. Oh! Hmm. You know, it is a pair of tickets… Why don't you invite that little cutie May/Brendan from next door to come along? Now I'd better be heading back to the Gym."
- "Thanks for looking after the house while I'm away, dear."
- After completing the Delta Episode
- "Hm?"
- "Morning, <player>. You must be bushed. You slept like a log."
- "Oh, but before I forget… This came for you. It's from someone named Briney."
- "Hm, so it was a ferry ticket, was it? As I recall, you can catch the ferry from the ports in Slateport and Lilycove. <player>! If you have ambition as a Trainer, I want you to take that ferry to the Battle Resort. I think it will teach you that there is no end to a Trainer's chosen path."
- "I'd better be heading back to the Petalburg Gym, then. Thanks for looking after the house while I'm away, honey."
- "<Player>… At last you've made it to Victory Road. As a parent, I'm proud of you and your Pokémon. There's nothing left for me to teach you. Believe in yourself and keep charging ahead until you're the Pokémon League Champion! Best of luck!"

In the anime
In the main series
In the anime, Norman is the father of May and Max, and the husband of Caroline.
Very early in his Hoenn journey, Ash arrived with May in Petalburg City in the hope of getting his first Gym battle. In There's no Place Like Hoenn, Ash found the Petalburg Gym and met Max, who posed as if he was the Gym Leader. May stopped him and allowed Ash to meet her parents, Caroline and Norman. Norman turned out be to the real Petalburg City Gym Leader. Norman used his Pokémon, a Vigoroth, in an exhibition battle against Pikachu, and later to save May's Torchic from Team Rocket.
Norman is a good friend of Professor Birch and was most likely the person to send May to Littleroot Town to get her first Pokémon. As May did not initially like Pokémon, this seemed to have created some distance between the two. Before Ash knew that Norman was May's father, he commented that it sounded like she knew the Petalburg Gym Leader pretty well, to which she replied, "No, I just wish I did," and became subdued.
In A Double Dilemma, Norman appeared in flashbacks and on memorabilia. It was also revealed that he had a large fanbase in North Petalburg.
In Love, Petalburg Style!, when Ash and his friends visited Petalburg City again, May and Max tried to figure out why Norman and Caroline were getting all worked up as Ash tried to save Norman's three Pokémon from Team Rocket. It all turned out that Norman had Nurse Joy set up a special firework display to make fireworks in a form of a Beautifly as a wedding anniversary gift for Caroline. During the episode, Norman showed that he was rather dense, not realizing that Caroline assumed that he was having an affair with Nurse Joy.
Ash had his Gym battle with Norman in Balance of Power. Using his Grovyle, Pikachu, and Torkoal, Ash defeated Norman's Pokémon. Upset by his father's loss, Max stole the Balance Badge and locked himself up in Norman's greenhouse. Norman was able to calm Max down, and Max gave Ash his Balance Badge.
He reappeared in flashbacks in Whiscash and Ash, A Scare to Remember!, and A Cacturne for the Worse.
In Deceit and Assist, Norman was watching May competing in the Hoenn Grand Festival on television.
In Saved by the Beldum, Norman watched Ash competing in the Ever Grande Conference.
He reappeared in a fantasy in Tactics Theatrics!, and in a flashback in A Full Course Tag Battle!.
His final appearances saw him watching May in the Wallace Cup on television in Staging a Heroes' Welcome! and Strategy with a Smile!.
Norman cares deeply for his family, wishing his children to have some quality time and good friends. Norman is also very protective of them, often fighting even more aggressively in the process of protecting them. May and Max respect their father's extensive efforts to ensure a healthy relationship with them, such as coming home for lunch and playing with his children. In general, Norman is jovial and calm, but at times, he can sometimes overlook things and cannot see the actual problem at hand.
In the broader community, Norman is quite popular for both his looks and his position as a Gym Leader, having an enthusiastic fanbase in North Petalburg and an emerging image in Petalburg City. In battle, he is intensely focused and has perfected his Pokémon in both offensive and defensive tactics. Norman commonly utilizes his trio of Slakoth, Vigoroth, and Slaking to confuse his opponents because they are capable of moving at different speeds. Norman gives his opponent credit for an excellent strategy and accepts a loss as critical to personal growth. He enjoys a challenge, wanting to see his opponent struggle to overcome his strategy and sheer power. However, he does not let his children watch the battle, thinking it would distract the challenger. Max claimed that Norman was capable of entering the Elite Four in Balance of Power.

You can help by adding this information.
This listing is of Norman's Pokémon in the Pokémon anime.
| Vigoroth was first seen in There's no Place Like Hoenn after Norman agreed to have an unofficial Gym battle with Ash because he had less than three Pokémon at the time. After a tough battle with Ash's Pikachu, Vigoroth managed to defeat him. Later, it helped in destroying one of Team Rocket's mechas that was attacking the Gym.
In Love, Petalburg Style!, May, Max, Brock, and Kenny saw Vigoroth hanging from a brunch at a place where Norman keeps his Pokémon. It then hugged Max. Team Rocket also planned to steal it for Giovanni, along with Slakoth and Slaking. When Ash arrived at the greenhouse, Vigoroth fell onto him. Ash was happy to see Vigoroth again.
In Balance of Power, Vigoroth was the second Pokémon used by Norman in his official Gym battle with Ash. It initially managed to easily dodge Torkoal's Overheat, and knocked out Torkoal with Scratch. After this, it had an intense battle with Pikachu. Norman ordered Vigoroth to use Scratch, but was surprised when Ash told Pikachu to take the hit. Vigoroth's Scratch attack hit home, but the powerful Pokémon was suddenly paralyzed by Pikachu's Static Ability. Seizing the opportunity, Pikachu attacked with Iron Tail, knocking Vigoroth out. However, Pikachu wasted all of his energy, and was also knocked out in the process.
It reappeared in flashbacks in Going for a Spinda, A Double Dilemma, and the Japanese version of A Scare to Remember!.
It made a cameo appearance in Deceit and Assist, where it was watching May competing in the Hoenn Grand Festival on television.
Vigoroth's known moves are Scratch and Flamethrower.

| Norman's Slakoth first appeared in Love, Petalburg Style!, in a greenhouse where Norman keeps his Pokémon. It appeared again in Balance of Power!, during Norman's battle with Ash. The match started with Norman's Slakoth against Ash's Pikachu. Utilizing Pikachu's speed, Ash ordered Pikachu to use Quick Attack. Slakoth dodged this and counterattacked with Shadow Ball. Jumping out of the way, Pikachu attacked with Iron Tail but missed once again as Slakoth leaned out of the way. Dazed, Pikachu was unable to dodge Slakoth's Hidden Power, and was blasted across the arena.
As Pikachu recovered from Hidden Power, Ash realized that he needed to change his strategy. He decided to try Electric attacks and ordered Pikachu to attack with Thunderbolt. However, Slakoth dodged this attack as well, and responded with Blizzard. The incredible cold kept Pikachu from attacking back, so Ash recalled him and sent out Torkoal instead. Torkoal used Flamethrower, which easily blasted through Slakoth's Blizzard and scored a direct hit, knocking Slakoth out.
It made a cameo appearance in Deceit and Assist, where it was watching May competing in the Hoenn Grand Festival on television.
Slakoth's known moves are Shadow Ball, Hidden Power, and Blizzard.

Ruby & Sapphire chapter
Norman is the father of Ruby and the newly appointed Leader of the Petalburg Gym. On Ruby's 11th birthday, Norman had his wife and son move to Hoenn to live in Littleroot Town. Due to Norman's dislike of his son partaking in Pokémon Contests, Ruby held a grudge against his father. Ruby decided to run away and prove to his father the superiority of Pokémon Contests to battling. As he left, he took the Running Shoes his father gave him as a birthday present. Upon arriving at Petalburg City, Ruby attempted to avoid being spotted by Norman. His attempts led him to meeting Wally, a sickly boy attempting to capture his first Pokémon. Wally asks Norman if he will teach him how to capture Pokémon as he had previously requested. He refuses due to Wally neglecting to inform Norman about his illness. Norman senses Ruby's presence, but when his attempt to get him to come out fails, he just passes it off as another wild Pokémon and leaves.
Norman's search leads him to the Weather Institute, where he attacks Ruby, demanding to know why he ran away from home. Ruby considers running away, but he decides to stay and fight in order to prove to his father how determined he is. Norman easily gains the upper hand due to teaching Ruby all he knows about fighting, but Ruby turns the tide by using new tactics with the Pokémon he caught on his journey. The battle causes the worn-out institute to break apart, leaving Ruby and Norman left dangling above shrapnel that fell from their battle. With the Running Shoes he got as a gift from Norman, Ruby manages to save the both of them, but is left exhausted and defeated. Norman attempts to continue their battle, but he is stopped by fellow Gym Leader Winona. Winona tells Norman that he is in trouble for leaving his Gym despite challengers wanting to battle. Norman grudgingly obeys Winona's command to come with her. Before he leaves, Norman tells Ruby that he accepts his desire to partake in Pokémon Contests despite his own personal dislike of them. He demands that in return, Ruby should not return home until he has fully accomplished his goals.
Later, Norman and the other Gym Leaders are called by Flannery to meet in Fortree City. They have a discussion on Team Magma and Team Aqua about whether or not one of the teams is evil and the other is good. Norman refuses to pick a side out of disinterest and begins to leave. Winona reminds him that as one of the Gym Leaders chosen by the Pokémon Association, he has to comply with the others. Norman refuses and continues leaving, but is stopped by Wattson. Wattson suggests that Norman use his strength to help in the upcoming Hoenn crisis and apologizes for the others' behavior due to their lack of knowledge about his past with the Pokémon Association. Norman politely tells Wattson to stop talking and heads off.
When Groudon and Kyogre are awakened, they begin causing droughts and downpours throughout Hoenn. Instead of helping stop the Pokémon from causing havoc, Norman decides to fulfill Wally's request and takes him to the Sky Pillar for training. After several days of training, Wally becomes much stronger from climbing the tower and battling the wild Pokémon inside. As they continue to train, Norman gets a call from Scott, who informs him that Ruby was chosen to be the wielder of the Red Orb used to control Groudon. This makes Norman decide to team up with Wally to awaken the third Legendary Pokémon that can stop Groudon and Kyogre, Rayquaza. Upon succeeding, Norman leaves Wally behind and flies off on Rayquaza to Sootopolis City.
When Norman arrives, Ruby is fighting Groudon and Kyogre alone with both the Red and Blue Orbs in hand. Together, they use the orbs in conjunction with Rayquaza to send Groudon and Kyogre away to return to their long slumber. The strain of having controlled Rayquaza for too long causes Norman to collapse and begin dying. In his last breath, Norman reveals that five years ago, Ruby's battle with a Salamence caused it to go berserk and accidentally free the Rayquaza captured by the Pokémon Association. Not wanting his son to take the blame, Norman lied to the association and put the fault on himself. The Association Director barred Norman from taking the Gym Leader test for five years and ordered him to find Rayquaza. Norman was forced to distance himself from his family during that time, which eventually led to Ruby becoming the way he is now. He then dies in Ruby's arms, much to the horror of his son. When Archie and Maxie come out of hiding to attack the exhausted Ruby, they decide to burn Norman's corpse to make sure he won't be able to return to stop their plans again.
Once Archie and Maxie were defeated, Ruby used his Celebi to revive all the people that were killed in the final battle. Norman is brought back to life thanks to Celebi's time travel abilities. Afterward, Norman celebrated the victory with his allies and thanked Ruby and Sapphire for their assistance in the battle. Sapphire immediately challenged Norman to a Gym battle, which she managed to win and earn the Balance Badge.
Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire chapter
Norman appears at Meteor Falls. He meets with the Elder that lives there in hopes of getting information about Rayquaza again. There, he meets with Ruby and Emerald, who had come there for the same reason. With the old woman's help, Norman determines the Rayquaza may be returning to the location where it was held captive by the Pokémon Association. With Hoopa's rings, Norman and Ruby head to Johto.
Upon arriving in Goldenrod City, Norman and Ruby enter the now-abandoned Pokémon Association research facility. After a search through the facility's data files, Norman comes across video footage of the moment where Rayquaza was first encountered at the Embedded Tower. Before they can witness Rayquaza's capture, the video cuts off. Ruby decides that if Rayquaza was found at Route 47, then it may have gone there instead of Goldenrod. Norman reveals that he asked Emerald to give him the Green Orb core shortly before they entered Hoopa's ring. He reveals the core was originally created by the Association in order to create an artificial Green Orb capable of controlling Rayquaza, as it didn't have an orb like Groudon or Kyogre. When Rayquaza escaped its captivity, the project was scrapped and the core was thrown away before being completed, where it eventually ended up in Emerald's hands. Norman uses a machine to increase the core's purity, increasing its strength and turning it a shade of jade.
Just as the process is completed, Norman and Ruby are shocked to see that Rayquaza has appeared in the skies. They find Rayquaza feeding on shards of the meteoroid, which have begun falling onto Johto as well. They take to the skies in order to confront Rayquaza and capture it. During the battle, Rayquaza manages to capture Ruby and blocks Norman's attempt to rescue his son. Ruby takes the opportunity to use the scroll he took from Zinnia in order to teach Rayquaza Dragon Ascent, which will allow it to destroy the meteoroid. When Rayquaza continues attacking Ruby, Norman attempts to control it with the Green Orb core, only for it to fail. Ruby tells Norman to call Emerald and ask Hoopa to bring them back to Hoenn, as he plans on destroying the meteoroid with Sapphire.
After Hoopa opens the path to the Meteor Village, Ruby uses the Jade Orb core to lead Rayquaza back to Hoenn with Norman. When it sees Kyogre and Groudon through the ring, Rayquaza goes berserk and begins attacking the two. Rayquaza rushes towards the ring to confront Kyogre and Groudon, causing Norman to fall off and be left behind. It is later revealed by Gold and Silver that Norman would assist the combined efforts of the Kanto and Johto Gym Leaders and Elite Four to stop the meteoroid.
This listing is for Norman's Pokémon in the Pokémon Adventures manga.

Rayquaza is an ancient Legendary Pokémon related to Groudon and Kyogre. It was captured by the Pokémon Association so that they may find a way to control it so that its powers could be used to stop Groudon and Kyogre when they would one day awaken again. Due to a Salamence that went out of control from a previous battle with Ruby, Rayquaza broke free and Norman was ordered to search for it again. Five years later, Norman teamed up with Wally and awakened Rayquaza on the Sky Pillar. Norman took Rayquaza and used it to stop Groudon and Kyogre with Ruby's help. The strain of controlling Rayquaza without an orb took too much strain on Norman, who proceeded to die shortly afterward. Angered that it was controlled, Rayquaza flew off to parts unknown.

Norman appears in There's Someone More Important Than Clefairy?!. Unlike other media, Norman does not have any known relatives.
When Red and his Pokémon visit the Petalburg Gym after getting startled by a Poké Ball that flew from there, they notice Norman drinking and feeling down. Norman revealed to the group as the one who threw the Poké Balls. He then revealed that he felt sad since his Slakoth refused to partake in any battles. Norman takes out a chart and shows it to Red and his Pokémon that the Balance Badge is stuck inside Slakoth. After Clefairy took a nap, Norman explained to Red and his Pokémon that Slakoth doesn't like it when someone is lazier than it.

Hi everyone,
First of all i want to sorry for my English.
I'd pass some exams, which is written on Java with PHP and ASPX elements. I found that before i answer on the question "value=0" and after i answer on it "value=2" becomes. Value is always 2, no matter what i choose, right or wrong. I think that mechanism is like this, it's sends the value to the server and server respond back the result. Can i catch somehow the right answers ? for example with great modified code in JList, or LIstView.
By the way, i'm not programmer ( and i don't know much about this, so guys, sorry beforehand if i asked some stupid question.
Thanks in advance.

Novels W/ Foreign Language
The first one comes from a young adult novel* that will be released later in the year.
"Hola, Mrs Hernandez Hola, Mari, Coma esta? Luz's mom asked how I was doing as she opened the back door and let the smoke out. "Estoy, bien" I told her I was okay."
The second is from Paris Noire by Francine Thomas Howard.
"Non. Non. Je dois voir mon fils, mon" In her worry, she'd had spoken French.
The final one is from Wolf Mark by Joseph Bruchac.
Vlad straightens up, looks down at me, raises one eyebrow. "Blagodariu," I say. I thank you. "Da Eto figna," he replies. Nothing to it.
Out of these three languages Spanish is the only one I know. I think that's part of the reason I had the biggest reaction to how it was incorporated. One of my reading pet peeves is an instant language translation (ILT), especially when its greetings. Even more so when its Spanish.
I could be assuming too much here because I've studied Spanish. Not everyone learns Spanish. Or French or Italian, two similar languages that would make it easier to understand a basic phrase or two. Some study, Arabic, Chinese, German or one of the many other languages with no similarities to Spanish
Though I still have a difficult time believing American readers must be spoon fed a translation for "Coma Esta."
The use of Estoy
My Spanish is barely passable. Considering I've lived in a predominantly Spanish speaking neighborhood for the last three years it should be much better. However I am still 99.9% sure estoy is not used outside of the classroom.
I was reminded of that scene from I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. Maya Angelou is in a bar in Mexico with her father. When she starts speaking Spanish the formal way its taught in high school everyone laughs.
Paris Noire
I've never studied French but found it easy to follow. I don't know what the example says but in context I understand its meaning. Howard never stops the flow of the story to give translations. The understanding through context approach worked very well for Paris Noire since only a little French is used. Mainly greetings.
Wolf Mark
Finding out that Wolf Mark had a little Russian was a nice surprise. It also helps round out this (lengthy) post since its a language I am not at all familiar with. I found myself reconsidering my stance on instant language translation.
I did find the ILT helpful at first but I soon wanted it to stop. They started to feel clunky and not natural to the story . Even though I don't know Russian, hints would've been preferable.
One of my favorite novels last year was Madonnas of Echo Park by Brando Skyhorse (one of the best prologues ever) A lot of Spanish is intertwined in the novel. What I didn't understand through context I had to look up. It did slow me down a bit but I didn't mind at all, I prefer to work for it.
Instant language translations take me out of the narrative. It also implies - The reader won't know what this means, they won't be smart enough to figure it out and will be too lazy to look it up.
I like to get the gist of another language through context and with the help of a few hints. If that doesn't work I prefer to look up what I don't know.
*I felt the execution (I just finished watching Project Runway. Nina Gracia Don't Play) of including Spanish was very poor. This shouldn't to be anyone's first impression of this novel since it could turn readers off. I enjoyed the novel and don't want to do that so I won't reveal the title.

Ooh, just got my copy of Wolf Mark, so very much more intrigued now!
Hints are preferable, to me, but operating on the idea that editors probably pressure writers in this regard, I usually let my annoyance pass. Remember how they changed the Potter books from that dastardly confusing British spelling to American spellings? And how they changed word usages, because the assumption is that our kids are just so feeble minded that they'd get confused if they had to encounter a wellie? Um, yeah. That's how it goes; they assume that teens ARE both too lazy and too uncommitted to the text to look things up, thus the lengthy translations.
'Least that's my two centavos (cents). ;)

I'm reading the third book in the Magickeeper series (MG, Erica Kirov). There's Russian in them all, I think. She doesn't do an exact translation. The MC doesn't know much Russian, so he puzzles it out as best he can.
"After they had fallen in love, she told him a Russian expression: Eslib kazhdiy raz koda ya dumayu o tebe padala by zvezda, to luna stalaby odinokoy. Something about stars and the moon; that if a star fell every time she thought of his dad, the moon would become lonely."
There's no getting that one through context. I am curious about anglicizing the alphabet though. Would this be more interesting or harder to understand in cyrillic?
She also includes some direct translations when it comes to naming the food they eat. It's an immersion in the culture that I can appreciate.

If there are hints around it that you can get the gist without an immediate translation, I like it. I don't like when it's like in the first example--where they say it in one language and immediately say it again in English. It's just redundant. What does kind of drive me crazy is in 19th century literature, they'll sprinkle it liberally with French, German and/or Latin phrases which may or may not have any hints as to what it means and in some editions they won't provide a translation in the footnotes or endnotes.

- Doret said...
Tanita -for proving my point and making laugh with (cents)
Sarah your right, there is no getting that through context. Do you think you'd like the direct translations more or less if they were in the back. How is the Magickeeper series?
de Pizan - The English repeat is a pet peeve of mines as well. If a hint won't work I would be okay with a person answering in English.
I won't be trying my hand at 19th century literature anytime soon. I once tried reading The Hunchback of Notre Dame it was not pretty.
- August 22, 2011 at 6:20 PM
- Sarah Laurenson said...
The direct translations are so small and don't really break the flow for me mostly because it's the MC telling himself and not breaking the fourth wall. And sometimes she uses description (like with borscht and describing it in a disgusted way) that tells the reader what borscht really is and not simply saying beet soup.
She also uses his thoughts to say he's sick of cod soup, then he says "No more ukha." A little later another character talks about turning the bad guys into stinky cod and making ukha out of them. So it's teaching me the language in a soft way.
I love this series. It's got a heavy dose of Russian culture - including the food. It's got good and evil with the evil ones being led by Rasputin. It intertwines the present day and the search for missing magical artifacts with real events and people from history. It's a nice light read - flows well, moves fast.

Nice post - I think a well written narrative that pulls the reader into a new world doesn't always need to explain itself. I think (hope) that as the world gets smaller all our abilities to tolerate "not knowing" or "figuring it out from the context" is getting larger - in fact, that is what linguistic, ethnic, national, regional etc. minority folks do every day. I think sometimes it's the position of privilege to be completely intolerant of being made to feel like you "don't know".. thoughts?
I just posted a few weeks ago a similar discussion on explaining or not explaining in multiculti kidlit. http://storiesaregoodmedicine.blogspot.com/2011/07/multicultural-kidlit-case-for-not.html
Salman Rushdie never explains - or he does, but in context, never literally

Yes, yes, yes! Instant translations set my teeth on edge. There are so many other deft ways of conveying meaning that we really don't need to have characters having to serve as translators as well. Contextual understanding is the only way. We have to trust young readers. The problem of course is that the more we use the parenthetical comma phrase approach to this craft issue, the more readers will come to expect that as the standard. Shudder! I did a blog post on this some time ago:

Thanks for that. I am a Barbadian living in Japan. All my stories are set in Barbados or Japan or imaginary worlds, so there are always some words that the audience won't know. And I always worry abotu how to convey their meaning. You've given me a lot more to think about.

Australia's International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR) has signed an agreement with DataDirect Networks to "develop the extraordinary new data storage capability" needed to cope with the Square Kilometre Array's (SKA's) expected exabyte-per-day output.
ICRAR's head of computing Professor Andreas Wicenec said DataDirect Networks' big data pedigree convinced ICRAR it has the nous to do the colossal job.
The deal doesn't mean that DataDirect Networks is over the line for the gig, largely because ICRAR hasn't won the right to host the SKA. A decision is expected in April, when the SKA Board meets to choose between bids from Australia and New Zealand and South Africa.
But the choice of DDN is almost certainly a worry to other big data players, as it has a puny local presence compared to the likes of EMC, NetApp and IBM, all of which are eyeing off the SKA as a colossal global customer. ®

The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) takes an active role in measuring and evaluating its projects and programs. One focus of these activities is to assess whether planned technical goals were met and commercialization and market results achieved. Another is to identify opportunities to make continuous improvements in programs in order to effectively and efficiently manage public investments.
Program evaluations include:
- Merit review of proposals
- Systematic studies, conducted periodically, to assess how well a program is achieving its intended outcome goals
- Periodic reviews of a program's progress
- Special-purpose assessments of realized research and development (R&D) knowledge impacts and market impacts and cost effectiveness of R&D and deployment activities
See types of evaluation for a description of the program evaluations used in EERE to quantify impacts, assess progress, and promote improvement.
This website provides EERE office leadership and their staff responsible for managing evaluation activities with resources and tools to make evaluations more useful and cost effective. It aims to help facilitate organization-wide quality improvements and coordination of evaluation activity. The website also promotes public transparency by making available the annual inventory of EERE planned and completed evaluations.
This site is not intended to make the user an expert in designing and performing evaluations. Primarily, the information provided here is designed to give program staff and other users a strong, practical background on the purposes and processes of program evaluation, to help them define and clarify their evaluation needs, to allow users to converse knowledgeably with the evaluation professionals they might employ to carry out an evaluation of their programs, and to ensure that high quality and useful evaluations are completed.
This website is organized into three major sections:
- Why, What and When to Evaluate – Provides you with information on "Why" it is useful to conduct program evaluations and describes some of the important considerations for determining "What" and "When" to evaluate. Additionally, this section provides access to information on the types of evaluation most-applicable to you.
- Planning and Conducting Evaluations – Outlines "how-to" steps for planning and conducting evaluations for peer reviews, general program evaluations, and benefit-cost impact evaluations.
- Evaluation Information Resources – Provides relevant resources that will help you prepare and manage a program evaluation. This section includes reports, evaluation examples, guides, links, forms, and other information that will help you in the process.

In order to build a film like The Avengers, Marvel had to look far in advance and make sure that their major superhero films contributed to the upcoming blockbuster crossover. Even if The Avengers is a massive flop (and that's highly unlikely), Marvel is already making its plans for The Avengers 2. Speaking at New York Comic-Con this weekend, Marvel Studios' President of Production Kevin Feige talked about the company's future films. Unsurprisingly, Iron Man 3 will be part of what Feige calls "Phase Two of this Avengers Assemble talk."
So what else will be part of "Phase Two"? Hit the jump for more. The Avengers opens in 3D on May 4, 2012. Feige says they'll be continuing their tradition of including a brief scene post-credits [via Cinemablend].
There's no set date for The Avengers 2, but it will be coming after Iron Man 3 (May 3, 2013) as well as Thor 2 (November 15, 2013). However, that still leaves Captain America 2 on the table as well as the planned spin-offs for Black Widow, Hawkeye, and possibly S.H.I.E.L.D. Then throw on to the pile Marvel's next non-sequel, non-spinoff films: Ant-Man, The Inhumans, and Guardians of the Galaxy. Ant-Man seems like an easy fit for The Avengers 2 since it's just one more character and sequels always demand fresh blood. However, The Inhumans and Guardians of the Galaxy are teams and Feige has said that if those two movies make it all the way to the finish line, they're going to be a team-movie like The Avengers or X-Men.
So does Phase Two mean bringing in The Inhumans and/or Guardians of the Galaxy, and if so, to what extent? There's a limit to a cast size before all the characters and the story gets short-changed. It will be interesting to see if all of Marvel's future projects are pieces of an Avengers puzzle, or if the company will make films that don't have to live in The Avengers universe (or at least play a major part in an Avengers movie).

'Right Wing Nutters' are Destroying the Global Economy
What does everyone else in the world think about the ridiculous debt debate going on in Washington? Speaking to the BBC today, British Business Secretary Vince Cable said:
"The irony of the situation at the moment, with markets opening tomorrow morning, is that the biggest threat to the world financial system comes from a few right-wing nutters in the American congress rather than the euro zone."
Let's just assume he's talking about those who have pledged allegiance to all-around right wing nutter Grover Norquist, shall we?

Yesterday I went to visit my sister. The plan was to meet my mother halfway and carpool. Because it was raining I had left early and ended up arriving at our meeting point – (a WalMart shopping center in Maryland) – early. Since my mother hadn't arrived, I went walking around WalMart while I waited.
Whenever I visit a WalMart I don't usually shop in, I like to check out the "ethnic food aisle" to see if they stock anything different and exciting. Well, there was definitely something different about this WalMart. I wasn't sure what to make of this…
Do you see what I see? The section has a sign that says "Latino food" – and then a few feet down, another sign that says "Hispanic food."
What is this the result of? I would have loved to have overheard the managers meeting when this was decided – if it was intentional and not accidental. The papers taped to the shelves suggest to me that it's inventory time. Will the signs be changed as shelves are rearranged? Was it cultural confusion? Maybe it was an attempt to be politically correct and all inclusive? … Or do they think that Valentina hot sauce is "Latino food," while Ortega taco shells are "Hispanic food?" … You decide.

This is a well-known negro spiritual, which has an interesting meaning.
The "balm in Gilead" is quoted in the Old Testament, but the lyrics of this spiritual refer to the New Testament (Jesus, Holy Spirit, Peter, and Paul). This difference is interesting to comment. In the Old Testament, the balm of Gilead cannot heal sinners. In the New Testament, Jesus heals everyone who comes to Him.
So, in the book of Jeremiah, several verses speak about Gilead. In chapter 22, v. 6 and 13: The Lord says (about the palace of the king of Judea) "Though you are like Gilead to me, like the summit of Lebanon, I will surely make you like a desert, like towns inhabited… Woe to him who builds his palace by unrighteousness, making his countrymen work for nothing, not paying them for their labour".
In the same book of Jeremiah, chapter 46, v. 2 and 11, "This is the message (of the Lord) against the army of Pharaoh Neco … Go up to Gilead and get balm, O Virgin Daughter of Egypt, but you multiply remedies in vain; here is no healing for you".
In the New Testament, the four Gospels say that Jesus healed many people whatever their conditions: he can heal the poor. A Christian who feels the Spirit must share its faith and "preach", like Peter and Paul.

New from William Morrow & Company: Delusion by Peter Abrahams.
About the book, from the publisher:
A woman's world is turned upside down when new evidence frees a man she put in prison with her testimony years ago in this latest ingenious thriller from the author Publishers Weekly calls "one of the best contemporary thriller writers around."Visit Peter Abrahams' website.
Twenty years ago Nell Jarreau witnessed the murder of her boyfriend. Her testimony put a man behind bars—and led her to her husband, Clay, the gentle detective who solved the case. They've been happy ever since—and have raised a daughter together—but then one phone call changes everything.
New evidence has exonerated Alvin DuPree, aka Pirate—the man Nell helped to convict—and now he's a free man. Nell is consumed by feelings of guilt, and for the first time in their marriage, Clay is no help. The case is closed for him, this new turn of events a mistake, nothing more, and Nell's attempts to talk to him about the situation are met with anger. And to make matters worse, the whole ordeal is beginning to wear on her relationship with her daughter.
Nell is determined to find the answers to her questions, though. Is DuPree, now a much-changed man, really innocent? Could Nell have been wrong all those years ago? Does her husband—or her daughter—know something about the case Nell doesn't? But secrets buried for twenty years tend to grow roots, to burrow deep; and they are not unearthed easily. Every answer produces more questions, and Nell's search eventually leads her to the one person she hasn't approached: the freed man himself. As the pieces fall into place, Nell realizes that the truth—and very real danger—could be much closer than she ever imagined.

When the tradition of drinking chocolate first took hold of London society in the 17th century, early aficionados had no idea what lay in store. It was hundreds of years before white chocolate finally arrived on sweet-shop shelves not long after, Whittard went and reinvented the hot chocolate flavour wheel with its famous white hot chocolate.
Brimming with buttery sweetness, this much-loved classic calls for a mountain of whipped cream and an avalanche of marshmallows.

In this world, robots would execute all strenuous tasks, enabling humans to dedicate their precious time to lighter, more skilled or demanding tasks. With FANUC collaborative robots, that world has already come into existence. By integrating them into existing production environments, robots directly collaborate with humans, becoming a crucial part of the team. Alongside humans, they take over tedious, repetitive tasks, lifting up to 35 kg, thus maintaining the human's health while automating entire assembly lines.

Collision stop Based on a safe contact stop, FANUC CR immediately halts its current task and stops after collision with a person or a fixed object thanks to its proven sensor technology. Payload up to 35 kg The FANUC collaborative robots family can handle payloads up to 35 kg, making the CR-35iA robot the world's strongest, collaborative robot. Easy programming and handling FANUC Hand Guidance allows you to teach your collaborative robot by leading it through paths and/or use it to lift heavy objects manually. This is made possible by an emergency stop button and a three-position enabling switch that meets ISO 10218 and ISO/TS 15066. Compatible with FANUC accessories Depending on the needs, the CR robots can be equipped with a FANUC Vision Sensor or a FANUC 3D Area Sensor, which enable them to locate or envision workpieces. Good repeatibility Despite its green exterior, the CR family operates like any other FANUC robot and is able to repeat the same movement multiple times at the exact same dexterity, leading to the automation of entire assembly operations of various industries such as of the automotive, packaging, distribution and metalworking industry. Success Stories STIHL | Handling and Shake testing of 10 kg saws To relieve their employees from heavy lifting STIHL added a CR-35iA to their production line in Waiblingen, Germany. Read more BENTELER | Loading and Unloading of testing stations At their production in Schwandorf, Germany simple tasks such as parts transportation are handled by automatic systems and thus make the work place more ergonomically. Read more Discover the wide range of collaborative opportunities Automotive machining and assembly Preventing the risk of repetitive strain injuries amongst assembly line workers, the CR series will lift and position heavy components on machining and assembly lines. The repeatability offered by using a collaborative robot for these processes also improves quality and reduces cycle times. Machine tending and part inspection The CR series is ideally suited to those machine tending applications that frequently require an operator's presence. Eliminating the need for an additional workstation, the robots can also carry out quality control checks as part of the handling process. Picking, packaging and palletising On packaging and palletising lines, the CR series can be used to carry out dull, repetitive, dirty and dangerous handling tasks, freeing up staff to perform more complex and diversified jobs requiring human skills. Dispensing Whether they are used to apply sealants, adhesives, paints or other fluids, the CR series works safely next to humans across a range of industries.

Almond Chicken Makhani
Almond butter…the reason for this recipe…so simple and so good…and really…why not make your own. It takes hardly any time, and you can control the salt and what kind of oil and how much to add! If you haven't done this before…do it. It is an interesting exercise to see what flavor you get…and how much salt is necessary for your tastes…and there are hundreds of recipes that involve some kind of nut butter.
Start with almonds, throw them into the food processor and grind away. It will be very loud! You might have to yell to hear yourself think!
Continue to grind, and it will begin to look mealy. If you like your nut butter chunky…you have a couple of options. You could grind a completely smooth batch, and then add some roughly chopped almonds, or you can grind a portion of the nuts to the consistency you want and then add whole nuts for a few more pulses of the blade.
You will need to add oil at some point, otherwise, you will have more of a nut paste. Remember also, that the type of oil you use will have an impact on the flavor as well…so I would stay away from very strongly flavored oils, unless your goal is to make a garlic almond butter to use in savory dishes…just don't plan on making any nut butter and jelly sandwiches. And, salt really helps bring out the flavor of any nut butter and is overly present in many commercial varieties.
On to the task at hand. Chicken Makhani!
If I had known that this was this easy to make…I would have saved many a take-out night when we lived in Boston. Makhani was one of the first Indian dishes that I explored…and turns out…I loved it. And who wouldn't…the description on almost any Indian restaurant's menu of 'butter chicken' is pretty irresistible. I recognize, that this is not a completely authentic makhani recipe…but the basic flavor profile is there. I swapped out typically used cashews for almonds and yogurt for milk. Perhaps I've misnamed…but it is what my mouth thought of!
1 Tablespoon (15 ml) olive oil
4 (6 oz / 170 g) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
Salt and pepper to taste
Spice Blend:
1.5 tablespoons garam masala seasoning
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
4 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, cut in half pole to pole
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (15-ounce) can tomato sauce
⅓ cup almond butter
⅓ cup milk
½ to ¾ cup chicken broth or water, more as needed
1 cup frozen peas
Cook the chicken. Sprinkle with a bit of salt and pepper to taste. Heat 1 teaspoon (5 ml) olive oil a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. If needed, cook the chicken in two batches to avoid crowding the pan. Set aside on clean plate and keep warm.
Prepare spice blend. Stir garam masala, ginger, cinnamon, and pepper together in a small bowl. Set aside.
Melt the butter in large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onion (I sliced half the onion in strips and left the other half whole) and cook gently for several minutes to infuse the butter with onion flavor. Keep the heat low to avoid burning the butter; a little color is fine.
Add the spice blend and garlic and cook for 1 minute or till fragrant, stirring constantly.
Add the tomato sauce, stir well, and bring to boil. Reduce heat to simmer.
Whisk in almond butter and milk until thoroughly combined with tomato sauce. The almond butter is thick so it takes a while to make a smooth sauce. Return to simmer.
Add broth or water (I used water) to sauce to reach desired consistency; return to simmer. Add more broth (or water) as needed to thin sauce as desired.
Remove onion (the half or both halves if you followed the recipe exactly) from sauce and discard. Stir frozen peas into sauce. Transfer chicken to sauce. Simmer gently for a few minutes until peas and chicken are heated through.
Serve chicken and sauce over rice. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a few sliced almonds.
This was great on the table that night…and even better as leftovers the next few days. I would make one change when making this again…as the flavors were a little heavy on the cinnamon. Woody remarked that our kitchen smelled like a CinnaBon stand when I reheated it the following night. It is a definite keeper, as a recipe and a method!
