Reason: info and images for Generation VII.
A Shiny Pokémon (Japanese: 光るポケモン Shiny Pokémon), previously officially known as alternate coloration or rare coloration (Japanese: 色違い differently colored), and called Color Pokémon in Pokémon Stadium 2, is a specific Pokémon with different coloration to what is usual for its species. It is one of the many differences that a Pokémon can have within its species.
The term "Shiny Pokémon" was first created by fans to refer to the sparkling sound effect and animation made at the start of an encounter with one in the games. Eventually, this term fell into official usage in Generation IV, used on promotional material promoting Shiny event Pokémon. The term Shiny Pokémon was first used in-game in Pokémon Black and White in Nimbasa City.
Shiny Pokémon can differ in color from their normal counterparts very little or very much. Some Pokémon, such as Glaceon or Pichu, have a Shiny coloration only a few shades darker or lighter in color. However, many Pokémon have a spectacular difference between their normal and Shiny variations; even extremely common Pokémon like Caterpie show a dramatic difference. An evolutionary line is not necessarily guaranteed to have similar Shiny colorations even if their standard colorations are the same; both Ponyta and Rapidash have orange flames, but a Shiny Ponyta has blue flames while a Shiny Rapidash has gray flames (this is switched in Generation II). Sometimes, two Pokémon in an evolutionary line with different standard colorations will have the same Shiny coloration, as in the case of Skitty and Delcatty.
Form differences, such as that of Shellos and Gastrodon, are not normal/Shiny variations of one another, but the individual forms can be Shiny.

| Gen VII
In the core series, Shiny Pokémon were first introduced in Generation II (though Pokémon obtained in Generation I can become Shiny when traded or transferred to a later generation). This was likely to take full advantage of the capabilities of the then-recent Game Boy Color.
When a Shiny Pokémon appears in the wild or is sent out of its Poké Ball, stars will briefly surround it and make a pinging sound effect (in Generation IV, this will also happen if a wild Shiny Pokémon breaks out of a Poké Ball). In Generation II, this ping happens before the Pokémon's cry, while from Generation III onward, the ping happens after the cry. In Pokémon Stadium 2 and Pokémon Battle Revolution, a flash of light circles the Pokémon upon its release from the Poké Ball.
Shininess is inherent to an individual Pokémon; that is, a Pokémon that starts out Shiny will always be Shiny, and one that does not will never be Shiny. Upon evolution, a Pokémon will retain its Shiny status; for example, a Shiny Charmander, if leveled up, will eventually become a Shiny Charmeleon and then a Shiny Charizard, just as a regular Charmander will become a regular Charmeleon and then a regular Charizard.
On the Pokémon's status screen, a Shiny status is indicated in Generation II as three small stars beside its gender, in Pokémon Stadium 2 as a yellow star that is animated dimming and brightening continuously, in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen as a small yellow star, and from Generation IV onward as a large red star near its picture. In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, the Pokémon's Pokédex number will be colored gold instead of white, whereas in Generations IV and V, the number will be colored red. In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, the background behind the sprites of Shiny Pokémon is white instead of gray, and small purple squares are added to the corners. In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, the border with gender, nickname, and level will be teal instead of purple.
Generation II
In Generation II, Shininess is determined by the IVs of a Pokémon. If a Pokémon's Speed, Defense, and Special IVs are all 10, and its Attack IV is 2, 3, 6, 7, 10, 11, 14 or 15, it will be Shiny. Because Shininess is determined by IVs, a Shiny Pokémon traded to a Generation I game and then traded back to Generation II will retain its Shininess, and a Pokémon obtained in Generation I whose IVs meet the requirements for Shininess will also become Shiny when traded to Generation II.
Due to the HP IV being determined by the other four IVs, a Shiny Pokémon's HP IV can only be either 0 or 8. Shiny Pokémon are generally above average in terms of IVs, but only slightly.
The probability of a Pokémon encountered in the wild or obtained as a gift, in-game trade, or event in Generation II having its IVs line up in the above manner is 1/8192 (assuming every IV combination has the same probability, which is usually the case).
The probability differs for bred Pokémon, as their IVs are partially influenced by their parents. Specifically, a parent passes its Special stat (plus or minus 8) and its Defense stat to its opposite-gendered children (Ditto is the parent that passes the stats if it is one of the parents). Therefore, if a Pokémon always inherits its stats from a single parent (i.e. the male parent if the bred Pokémon are female-only, or Ditto if it is one of the parents), if that parent is Shiny, the child has a 1/64 chance of being Shiny (1/2 chance of having appropriate Attack, 1/2 chance of having appropriate Special, 1/16 chance of having an appropriate Speed). Conversely, if a Pokémon does not have a Defense IV of 10 and a Special IV of 2 or 10, its opposite-gendered offspring can never be Shiny.
Due to correlations between pseudorandom numbers in the Generation I games, Pokémon encountered in tall grass, on cave tiles, or by Surfing on water cannot have a set of IVs that would allow them to be Shiny in Generation II. Fishing encounters, gift Pokémon (including from Pokémon Stadium), stationary Pokémon (such as Snorlax and Mewtwo), and in-game trades can have any set of IVs in Generation I, so always have the same 1/8192 chance of having a Shiny IV combination.[1] Additionally, in Generation I, if a wild Pokémon transforms again while already transformed, when caught it will be a Ditto with the same IVs as the first Pokémon it transformed into, allowing Ditto's IVs to be manipulated so that it is Shiny in Generation II by having it initially transform into a Pokémon with Shiny IVs.
To highlight alternate coloration, a red Gyarados at the Lake of Rage is part of the plot of the Generation II games and their remakes. After its defeat or capture, a Red Scale will be obtained, which can be given to Mr. Pokémon in exchange for an Exp. Share. The red Gyarados can be found at level 30.
The Pokémon that hatches from the Odd Egg in Crystal has a 14% chance of being Shiny in localized games, and a 50% chance in Japanese games.
In the Game Boy mode of Pokémon Gold and Silver, the sprites of both regular and Shiny Pokémon use the same shades of grey. A Shiny Pokémon can still be identified by looking for the stars in its status screen or by the animation played when it is sent out to battle.
Generation III
In Generation III, most of the data structures were completely overhauled. Starting from this generation, a Pokémon's Shininess is no longer linked to any of its other stats. Instead, Shininess is determined by a calculation involving the Original Trainer's ID number and secret ID number, as well as the Pokémon's personality value.
The exact calculation is
(TrainerID xor SecretID) xor (PersonalityValue31..16 xor PersonalityValue15..0), where the latter two values represent the highest and lowest 16 bits of the 32-bit personality value respectively; more detailed information can be found at the personality value article.
The above formula can result in a number from 0 to 65535. If the result is less than 8, then the Pokémon is Shiny. This gives an overall probability of 8/65536 or 1/8192, exactly the same as in Generation II.
In this generation, several Pokémon Battle e Trainers have Pokémon which are preset as Shiny. Additionally, in the Trainer Tower in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, there are three Trainers who have preset Shiny Pokémon: the Trainer on the seventh floor in the Single Battle mode has a Shiny Meowth, the pair of Trainers on the first floor in the Double Battle mode have a Shiny Espeon, and finally, the second Trainer on the fourth floor in the Knockout Mode has a Shiny Seaking. No Trainers have preset Shiny Pokémon in the Mixed Mode.
Because Eggs are given the OT, Trainer ID and secret ID of the game in which they are generated, if an Egg is hatched in a game other than that of the player who generated it, it can hatch with the appearance of a Shiny Pokémon in the cutscene but actually be normally colored, or hatch normally colored but actually be Shiny. This is due to the change in OT, ID, and secret ID happening after the hatching cutscene. This also allows Eggs that are normally prevented from being Shiny (Eggs obtained from event distributions and the Manaphy Egg) to be Shiny, as long as they are hatched in a game other than the game that generated them.
Because Unown's form in Generation III is also determined by its personality value, the amount of personality values that make a certain Unown form Shiny is not uniform across all Unown forms. Thus, at Tanoby Ruins, the probability to find a Shiny Unown varies depending on the chamber and will never be 1/8192. This probability also depends on the player's Trainer ID and Secret ID, and can take the following values: 1/5120 ,1/6144, 1/9216, 1/10240, or 1/18432.
Generation IV
This generation introduced methods of increasing the Shiny probability above the minimal 1/8192. If a long chain is created with the Poké Radar, the Shiny probability can increase up to as high as 1/200 with a chain of 40 or higher. Additionally, breeding two Pokémon with origins from different language games (dubbed the Masuda method) multiplies the chance of receiving a Shiny Egg by 5, resulting in a 5/8192 (approximately 1/1638) probability. Intentionally foreign Pokémon traded through in-game trades do not trigger the Masuda method, however.
In the Veilstone Game Corner, in the bonus round on the slot machines, a Clefairy appears on the lower screen. There are three kinds of Clefairy: a Ditto that has transformed into a Clefairy, a normal Clefairy, and a Shiny Clefairy. Shiny Clefairy are the rarest and last for the most bonus rounds, but are not as rare as encountering an actual wild Shiny Pokémon.
In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the red Gyarados makes its return as a plot point. Shiny Pokémon also appear in their Shiny state as walking Pokémon when they follow the player.
In this generation, when Cute Charm forces a wild Pokémon to be a specific gender, it does so by modifying its personality value in predictable ways. Because of this, players with certain Trainer ID number and Secret ID combinations can manipulate the Shiny chance to be as high as 21.34% in some situations.
Generation V
Starting from this generation, Pokémon in the Pokédex will appear Shiny if the first specimen of that Pokémon encountered is Shiny.
In these games, wild Reshiram, Zekrom, and Victini, as well as any Pokémon obtained in Entree Forest (i.e. from the Pokémon Dream World) are ensured by the game to never be Shiny. However, like all Pokémon, Reshiram, Zekrom, and Victini still have Shiny sprites in the games' data.
The Poké Radar no longer exists in this generation, but the probability of obtaining a Shiny Egg from the Masuda method has increased, from 5/8192 to 6/8192 (approximately 1/1638 to 1/1365).
In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, as a reward for seeing every non-event Pokémon in the New Unova Pokédex, the player can receive a Permit that allows them to travel to the Nature Preserve, where they can encounter a level 60 Shiny Haxorus. Also, after defeating Benga in the Black TowerB2 or White TreehollowW2, he will give the player a level 1 Shiny GibleB2 or Shiny DratiniW2.
As an additional reward for catching every single non-event Pokémon in the National Pokédex, the player can receive the Shiny Charm from Professor Juniper. Having this item in the Bag increases the chance of obtaining a Shiny Pokémon by a flat 2/8192, resulting in a 3/8192 chance (about 1/2731) of finding one normally (an effectively tripled chance) and an 8/8192 chance (1/1024) of hatching one through the Masuda method.

Reason: Friend Safari mechanics.
This generation slightly changed how Shiny Pokémon are determined. While the basic formula is still identical to Generation III and all games since then, the value the formula returns now only has to be less than 16 to result in a Shiny, rather than less than 8. This results in a probability of 16/65536 or 1/4096, double the previous probability.
In these games, when encountered as wild Pokémon, the Legendary birds, Xerneas, Yveltal, Zygarde, Mewtwo, the weather trio, Deoxys, and Cosplay Pikachu are ensured by the game to never be Shiny.
Eggs will no longer appear to hatch as Shiny when they are not, nor hatch normally colored when they are Shiny. This also means that if an Egg from an event distribution is prevented from being Shiny, it cannot hatch as Shiny in any game.
The Poké Radar returns in this generation after a generation of absence, and the Masuda method and Shiny Charm return as well. There are also three new mechanics to increase the Shiny rate: consecutive fishing, the Friend Safari, and hidden Pokémon.
With consecutive fishing, if the player reels in an unbroken chain of Pokémon while staying in one spot, the chances of finding a Shiny Pokémon go up. For every Pokémon added to the chain, the chances increase by approximately 2/4096, up to a chain of 20 Pokémon, at which point the chances reach a maximum of approximately 41/4096 or 1%. This effect can stack with the Shiny Charm's effect.[2]
In the Friend Safari, empirical evidence shows that Pokémon are eight times more likely to be Shiny, with a probability of 1/512. This is unaffected by the Shiny Charm.
A hidden Pokémon has a small chance to be forced to be Shiny (as well as the normal chance to naturally be Shiny if it is not forced). This chance depends on the Pokémon's Search Level (the number of times it has been seen) and starts at 0.01% at Search Level 1. It grows at a decreasing rate up to Search Level 201 where it reaches 0.09%, after which it increases by a steady 0.01% for every 100 Search Levels. Certain factors can increase the odds further by performing the check extra times. There is a 4% chance it will be performed four extra times; if the player has the Shiny Charm it will be performed two extra times; and if the player is encountering the 50th or 100th Pokémon in a chain of hidden Pokémon, it will be performed five or ten extra times respectively. All of these bonuses stack.[3]
Generation VII

Shiny Pokémon are more likely to be encountered during SOS Battles in which more allies have been called. The SOS Battle system uses an 8-bit counter to store the length of the chain, meaning the chain can reach a maximum length of 255 before it rolls over. Details for Shiny Pokemon appearing between a chain length of 0-70 are currently unknown, but it has been confirmed that from a chain length of 70-255, the game will roll three extra chances for a Shiny Pokemon. Without the Shiny Charm, the chance for a Shiny Pokemon is 4/4096 or 1/1024. With the Shiny Charm, the chance to find a Shiny Pokemon is 6/4096 or approximately 1/683.
Pokémon obtained in the Virtual Console releases of the Generation I games have a chance to become Shiny when transferred to Generation VII via Poké Transporter. As in Generation II this is determined by the Pokémon's IVs; however, in this case the Defense IV must be 2, 3, 6, 7, 10, 11, 14, or 15, while the Attack, Special, and Speed IVs must all be 10 (the probability is still 1/8192 assuming all combinations are equally likely). Due to correlations between pseudorandom numbers in the Generation I games, Pokémon encountered in tall grass, on cave tiles, or by Surfing on water cannot have a set of IVs that would allow them to be Shiny upon being transported. Fishing encounters, gift Pokémon, stationary Pokémon, and in-game trades can have any set of IVs in Generation I, so always have the same 1/8192 chance of having a Shiny IV combination. Mew distributed to the Virtual Console Generation I games have IVs of 15 in every stat, so can never be Shiny. Additionally, it is possible to manipulate the IVs of a wild Ditto in Generation I so that it is Shiny upon being transported.

Unobtainable Shiny Pokémon
In all generations since Shiny Pokémon debuted, there are a few species that cannot be legitimately obtained Shiny. This can happen if the Pokémon cannot be Shiny in the wild or as an in-game gift (or cannot be obtained this way at all) and has never been distributed as Shiny.
- Generation II
- ↑ Mew distributed to Generation II games cannot be Shiny. All Mew distributed to Generation I games have a fixed set of IVs which do not match the requirements to be Shiny.[citation needed]

In the side series games
Pokémon Stadium
In Pokémon Stadium and Pokémon Stadium 2, Pokémon with a nickname can be colored slightly differently, whether or not they are actually Shiny. The colors a nicknamed Pokémon has are determined by the Pokémon's nickname and the Original Trainer's Trainer ID number and name.
In the Ekans Hoop Hurl game in the Kids' Club, there are golden Diglett that are worth extra points.
In Stadium 2, there is an option while viewing the list to exclude any non-Shiny Pokémon from the listing (i.e. Group Color Pokémon/Cancel Color Pokémon). This will show Shininess, even if the player is currently viewing a Generation I cartridge in the Lab.
Since the Pokémon in Challenge Cup are randomly generated, it is possible for them to be Shiny.
Pokémon Colosseum
In Pokémon Colosseum, non-Shadow Pokémon obtained in the game (such as the player's starter Espeon or Umbreon and Duking's Plusle) are ensured to be unable to be Shiny.
There is a 1/8192 chance of a Shadow Pokémon being Shiny, but when a Shiny Shadow Pokémon is captured it is highly improbable that the Pokémon will remain Shiny. Conversely, when an ordinary Shadow Pokémon is captured, there is still the 1/8192 chance of that Pokémon becoming Shiny when it is sent to the player's party or the Pokémon Storage System. Shininess is retained through purification.
In Pokémon Colosseum, the color of a Shiny Pokémon can differ drastically from the handheld games.
Pokémon XD
In Pokémon XD, the game ensures that all Shadow Pokémon are not Shiny by recalculating the Pokémon personality value if it would result in a Shiny Pokémon. However, non-Shadow Pokémon (such as the starter Eevee, in-game trades, Mt. Battle Johto starter Pokémon, and Poké Spot Pokémon) can be Shiny.
Like in Pokémon Colosseum, the color of a Shiny Pokémon can differ drastically from the handheld games. Shiny Pokémon have a different profile icon next to their health bar than their normally-colored counterparts.
My Pokémon Ranch
In My Pokémon Ranch, Pokémon's Shininess is visible. Pokémon traded by Hayley—except possibly Phione and Mew—cannot be Shiny.
Pokémon Battle Revolution
In Pokémon Battle Revolution, Shiny Pokémon have face-sprites which show their Shininess. Random Pokémon in Colosseums can be Shiny, but have the same chance of being Shiny as wild Pokémon. This is due to the RNG, which generates a random PID.
In the spin-off games
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness and Sky
In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness and Explorers of Sky, a Shiny Celebi is part of the story, although Shiny Pokémon are not obtainable normally in the game.
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon WiiWare
In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games for WiiWare, Shiny Pokémon can be found in dungeons. Unlike the core series, only 36 different species of Shiny Pokémon are obtainable. The chances of finding one in a dungeon is the same chances as finding one in the wild in the core series. Unlike Shiny Pokémon in the past however, the Shiny Pokémon found in these games have an added bonus: their Belly stat is 200 as opposed to the 100 of normal Pokémon. A Red Gyarados can also be obtained at Level 30 via Wonder Mail password, as a reference to the one found in the Johto-based games.

Reason: how exactly does Shiny Ho-Oh differ from regular one?.
In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, Ho-Oh can be uniquely encountered as a Shiny Pokémon. Unlike the main series games where Shininess affects nothing other than appearance, a Shiny Ho-Oh will be more powerful than a non-Shiny Ho-Oh, as well as having a different moveset.
Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon
The Shiny Celebi from Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky makes an appearance. She is rescued as part of an expedition and subsequently connects with the player. She has a unique animation that plays when entering a dungeon.
Super Smash Bros. series
In the Super Smash Bros. series, Pikachu, Jigglypuff, Mewtwo, Squirtle, Ivysaur, Charizard, Lucario, and Greninja each have several different colorations exclusive to the series. One of Pikachu's alternate colorations is its Shiny coloration wearing Red's hat, and one of Jigglypuff's in Super Smash Bros. Brawl is its Shiny coloration wearing a straw hat; Mewtwo also has its Shiny coloration in Super Smash Bros. Melee. All other playable Pokémon in the series do not have their actual Shiny coloration as an alternate coloration.
Pokémon Rumble series
Pokémon Rumble
In Pokémon Rumble, Shiny Pokémon may rarely appear. They will always tip over when defeated. The chances of their appearance are unconfirmed, although they appear to occur more often than in the core series. Shiny Pokémon are always given a special trait, a blue name in menus, and a star below their picture on the Collection screen. Some Shiny Pokémon can be obtained by the use of passwords.
Pokémon Rumble U
Shiny Pokémon return to the Pokémon Rumble series in Pokémon Rumble U and function similarly to how they did in the original Pokémon Rumble.
Pokémon Conquest
A Shiny Rayquaza is featured in Pokémon Conquest, sharing a Perfect Link with Nobunaga, and is his Pokémon of choice during the final battle of the main scenario. Nobunaga's Black Rayquaza was distributed over Wi-Fi for Japanese Black and White players to commemorate the release of the game.
Pokémon Shuffle
There are 15 Shiny Pokémon, including Mega Evolved Pokémon, in Pokémon Shuffle: Magikarp, Gyarados, Mewtwo, Tyranitar, Rayquaza, and Diancie, and the currently unreleased Charizard, Gengar, Ho-Oh, Gardevoir, Metagross, Genesect, Hawlucha, Xerneas, and Yveltal. Shiny Pokémon are treated as alternate forms of the standard Pokémon, sharing its Pokémon list number but not its Skill, experience, level, Mega Effect (where applicable), or, in some cases, type.
Pokémon GO
Shiny Magikarp and Shiny Pikachu are available in Pokémon GO. Shiny Magikarp was made available on March 22, 2017, at the same time as the start of the Water Festival. Shiny Pikachu was made available on August 9, 2017, beginning at the Pikachu Outbreak event in Yokohama, Japan then becoming available throughout the world after the conclusion of the event on August 15, 2017. These two Pokémon will remain Shiny if evolved. No other Pokémon can be Shiny in Pokémon GO.
Pokémon: Magikarp Jump
A Shiny Magikarp is one of the possible Magikarp to fish in Pokémon: Magikarp Jump. Shiny Feebas, Luvdisc and Corsola may also appear in random encounter events during feeding.
In the TCG
Shiny Pokémon have appeared in the TCG as well, first as Shining Pokémon in Neo Revelation and Neo Destiny, and later as Pokémon in EX Team Rocket Returns - EX Power Keepers. Players can only have one Pokémon per deck. The Stormfront, Platinum, Supreme Victors and Arceus sets include three cards each with alternate coloration artwork and a reverse holo effect, but are not classified as an entirely separate rarity. Unlike Shining Pokémon and Pokémon , these newest alternate coloration cards are not limited by special gameplay and deckbuilding rules, and since the names of the cards are not changed to indicate the alternate coloration, they can be evolved into non-Shiny Stage 1 Pokémon, or, in the case of Shiny evolved Pokémon, from normal Basic Pokémon.
Shiny versions of several Legendary Pokémon were also featured in the Call of Legends expansion as secret rares under the SL numbering subset.
From Next Destinies until XY, all secret rare cards depicted Shiny Pokémon.
Sometimes, cards with Shiny Pokémon are tied to ongoing events in the games or anime, such as the Shiny Gengar distributed in October 2014, or the appearance of the Red Genesect in Genesect and the Legend Awakened.
List of cards featuring Shiny Pokémon
|Other cards with Shiny Pokémon
In the anime
- Main article: List of alternately colored Pokémon in the anime
Although the games had not premiered alternate colored Pokémon until Generation II, several Pokémon seen beforehand were colored differently. One such example is the pink Butterfree, the mate of Ash's Butterfree, which appeared as early as the twenty-first episode. This is, however, not the standard alternate coloration for a Butterfree, and therefore may not be counted as a Shiny Pokémon. Likewise, the first appearance of a Generation III Pokémon in The Kecleon Caper featured a non-standard alternate colored Pokémon, this time a purple Kecleon.
In the Orange Archipelago, certain Pokémon have a different coloration because the climate is different than that of the mainland. For example, a Butterfree, instead of the normal white with black markings, would have gold wings with red spots on them. On Pinkan Island of the Orange Archipelago, all of the Pokémon are colored pink because the Pinkan Berries they eat make them that way.
The first true Shiny Pokémon that appeared was a Noctowl in Fowl Play!. Ash eventually captured it, and, as in the games, sparkles surround it as it comes from its Poké Ball. Several other Shiny Pokémon have appeared later as well, often used to make them stand out more, or be the focus of an episode. The term "Shiny" was first used in Working on a Right Move!
In the manga
Because most manga series are published in black-and-white, Shiny Pokémon are few and far between. One major exception, because of its importance to the plot of Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver, is the red Gyarados.
In the movie adaptations
A Red Genesect appeared in Genesect and the Legend Awakened.
A Shiny Rayquaza appeared in Hoopa and the Clash of Ages. It had the ability to Mega Evolve into a Mega Rayquaza.
In the Pokémon Adventures manga
In Pokémon Adventures's Gold, Silver & Crystal chapter, Silver captured the raging leader of a group of Gyarados, who had been on a rampage since Team Rocket took control of the Goldenrod Radio Tower and sent out their evolution-inducing radio waves.
Crystal mentions that she caught a different colored Pineco as part of the Pokémon sent to Professor Oak in Off Course with Corsola.
In the Pocket Monsters HGSS Jō's Big Adventure manga
In Pocket Monsters HGSS Jō's Big Adventure, Jō and his Totodile befriend the red Gyarados by calming its rampage and feeding it berries. It later appears to help Jō and Lance battle Ariana and Petrel.
In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga
The Red Gyarados makes an appearance in Stop That Strange Sonic Sound!! where Team Rocket plots on catching it by luring it out of hiding using sonic waves while at the same time, Clefairy went fishing for it. The Red Gyarados is darker than any normal-colored Gyarados in this media.

Reason: Is it possible for the Cinccino that appears in the intro in B2W2 to be shiny?.
- In Generation III onwards, it is possible for an Egg to hatch Shiny on one game but not another. This is because Shininess is partially determined by the Original Trainer ID and Secret ID number. Eggs have the ID and SID of the game they were originally bred on, but change to the ID and SID of the hatcher immediately after hatching. It is this change that affects Shininess.
- Confusingly, this means that if a player hatches a traded Egg that would have been Shiny on the game it was originally bred on, it will appear Shiny on the hatching screen (since it still has the ID and SID of the original game), and then suddenly no longer be Shiny afterward (once it has obtained the ID and SID of the hatcher's game). Conversely, it is also possible for a newly hatched Egg to not appear Shiny on the hatching screen and then suddenly become Shiny afterward, if the Egg has been traded.
- While all (Generation III onward) event Eggs are set to prevent or force Shininess, if a player other than the one who obtained it from the event hatches the Egg, this prevention is bypassed, allowing an event Egg to hatch Shiny. This is the only way to obtain a Shiny Manaphy.
- Due to Shininess being determined by IVs in Generation II, several odd quirks arise:
- Since gender is also determined by IVs in Generation II, it is impossible to have a Shiny Pokémon with a gender ratio of seven males to one female that is female in those games, as the highest Attack IV a female Pokémon with a gender ratio of seven males to one female can have is 1, while the lowest Attack IV a Shiny Pokémon can have is 2.
- Since Unown's letter is also determined by IVs in Generation II, only Unown I and V can be Shiny.
- Since Hidden Power is determined by IVs, a Shiny Pokémon's Hidden Power type in Generation II can only be either Grass or Dragon, with a power of either 49 or 69.
- As Generation II does not allow two Pokémon to breed if they are likely to be from the same family, two Shiny Pokémon can never breed in Generation II.
- Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 have the most in-game event Shiny Pokémon available, with two.
- In Pokémon Sun and Moon, after entering the Hall of Fame, Sightseer Marcus appears at the Seafolk Village Pokémon Center, battling the player with a Shiny Exeggcute. This marks the only time a Trainer outside of a battle facility uses a Shiny Pokémon (excluding capture tutorials).
- It is possible for all of the following to be Shiny:
- The Poochyena/Zigzagoon that attacks Professor Birch in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald.
- The Zigzagoon that Wally uses in the capture tutorial in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald.
- The Ralts that Wally catches in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald.
- The Pokémon that the old man encounters in FireRed and LeafGreen.
- Rental Pokémon found in the Battle Factory in Pokémon Emerald.
- Wild Pokémon that appear in Battle Pike and Battle Pyramid in Pokémon Emerald.

This is by far the worst overtaking maneuver I have ever seen.
First off, driver Ricardo Teixeira in this Formula Two race in Marrakech in 2010 doesn't even have a single wheel on the ground. You can see why this is a mistake when he crashes violently into the ground, taking himself out of the race (though he was unharmed in the incident). Big mistake.
Next time, try to make a pass while remaining on the ground. It's almost always faster and safer than this midair maneuver.

Grmassey2833 necesitaba un nuevo diseño de impreso o envases y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 110 diseños de 34 diseñadores freelance.
Lucas Hunter Publications
Self publishing business for ebook and print.
Addition 3.31.11
I also need a back cover designed for this as well. Nothing too fancy but something that goes with the front cover artwork.
This project is for an ebook cover for a title called "The Profit Principle". This is a system to teach consumers how to sell online using eBay, Amazon and their own website. It teaches some of the common principles seen in other texts and a lot of never seen before techniques. The main selling point of this ebook will be that it teaches the consumer to setup their business so that someone else does the shipping and customer support so that the consumer only eventually has to check their bank statement, it is setup to be completely hands-off and self sustaining.
I have never created an ebook nor an ebook cover for that matter so I want it to stand out against seasoned book covers when viewed online or on kindle,ipad etc. I like bold colors but a simple design. I don't have a precise idea of what I want but I'm thinking of a cloud (for internet), the profit arrow going up and maybe cash of money signs raining from the cloud. But again I do not have this for certain as my requirements. I have attached a document with covers and color schemes I like. Please be creative with the color but keep it simple and the title easy to read as this will be shown as a thumbnail in Kindle, iBookstore,Nook etc.

I was browsing Wikipedia and I happened to notice, Australia have had 5 test cricket captains in the last 25 years (one of them being Gilchrist who doesn't really count, so only 4 really). There are many teams (eg. England, Pakistan) who have shuffled through this many leaders in the past 5 years or so.
It begs the question, how important is the role of the captain? For as long as I can remember (and no doubt long before that) Australia has had a culture/tradition of appointing a leader who has been nurtured for the position for years and having them hold the captaincy until their retirement (btw we are talking test cricket, not a case of Clarke or Collingwood becoming T20 captains). Do you believe this culture has a lot to do with Australia's dominance over the last couple of decades?. Is this the best way to go about captaincy, or should it be more of a 'right-man-for-the-job-at-the-time' affair? Would it be suitible for test cricket teams to implement a captaincy rotation policy (as some teams in the AFL do and no doubt teams in other sports)?

Furgate 2.0: PETA Attacks Lady Gaga Over Fur Purchases in Russia
PETA took Lady Gaga to task earlier this summer over the pink mink fur she wore (which she never confirmed or denied), and now the organization has spoken up again -- this time about her recent purchases in Russia.
Gaga allegedly scooped up several furs from the Helen Yarmak store in Moscow, among them a $210,000 sable coat and a $20,000 silver fox fur pelt, as well.
PETA voiced its displeasure with her actions (quotes via WENN.) The organization stated, "Out of place, out of time, and possibly out of her mind: While the country focuses on rejecting violence and we are deep into the season of peace, giving, and kindness, Gaga is busy decking herself out in a coat made of at least 30 slaughtered animals' skins."
For her part, Mama Monster has yet to respond to the latest public flogging (aka Furgate 2.0) from PETA.
Gaga also has legal action hanging over her head for promoting homosexuality at her show in St. Petersburg, so she caused quite a stir on all fronts with her trip to Eastern Europe.

Every week -- often with your help -- Food52's Senior Editor Kristen Miglore is unearthing recipes that are nothing short of genius.
Today: Your new go-to birthday cake, bake sale cake, dinner party cake, late night snack cake -- for when the fridge is at its barest and you need chocolate cake now. (It's also vegan and parve and dirt cheap, but you wouldn't know unless we told you.)
There is almost nothing you can throw at this cake that it can't handle. Say you want chocolate cake but -- what's that? You're out of eggs? And butter? And chocolate? You're going vegan this week? You need a dessert that's kosher with brisket? You want it in 45 minutes? You got it. This cake balks at nothing. Even Duncan Hines asks for more.
If the Depression taught us anything, it's that in times of scarcity, there can -- and should -- still be cake. You must bake from what you've got, even if what you've got is mayonnaise or canned tomato soup.
But this cake is much better than those, and expects even less of you (and your wallet), if that's possible. There's no waiting for butter to soften just enough, no creaming of things, no wondering if your eggs are the right temperature. All you need are two bowls and a whisk, a cake pan of sorts, an oven, and to be armed with the most minimal of nonperishables in your pantry.
Cocoa powder. Baking soda. Sugar, salt, oil, vanilla. Cider vinegar (or white vinegar, or even lemon juice). If you don't have these in your cupboard right now, you probably don't actually like cake.
More: 9 more chocolate cakes, just for you.
Margaret Fox, cookbook author and, for 23 years, the driving force behind the famed Cafe Beaujolais in Mendocino, California, isn't sure how she stumbled on this formula -- similar to the crazy cakes and wacky cakes your grandmother might have made. But it was, as she says, "in a frenzy of cake baking, trying to find what I thought of as the perfect chocolate cake." When she spotted a recipe that was missing eggs and dairy, ingredients she thought were integral to a tender crumb, she thought, "I have to make this cake -- it's got to be weird."
But it wasn't weird -- not at all. In fact it looked eerily like the front of a cake mix box, and tasted better than it should. "This cake has legs, and a legitimacy and a flavor that's so wonderful, vegan or not," Fox says.
As is, it's not the richest, most chocolatey cake -- if you like, you can amp up the chocolate by swapping in coffee for the water, or adding more cocoa.
But you don't need to. It's a different animal: light, delicately strung together with cocoa, and not terribly sweet. You could eat a lot of it and still feel civilized, and not compelled to go ball up on the couch.
But how does it work? As we know from 4th grade science projects, baking soda reacts with vinegar -- and the acidity of the cocoa powder too. No need for airy creamed butter or eggs to leaven when you're harnessing a volcano.
On top of that, we know oil makes an exceedingly moist cake too, and one that keeps for days without staling. Win, win, win.
So make like Fox and frost it with mocha buttercream or turn it into black bottom cupcakes. Dot it with crème fraîche or whipped cream or ganache. Or just serve it as is -- this cake can take it.

I just heard this simple reasoning in a documentary film:
Light rays from distant stars are perfectly parallel.
This is pretty interesting thought. In nature, it is hard to find something really perfect. For example, there are no isolated systems -- only quasi-isolated. But here it looks like indeed the light rays are perfectly parallel.
Maybe this can be confirmed by calculations? -- e.g. that angle between two light rays cannot be infinitely small (Planck constant will be probably involved?).

US Army Private Bradley Manning spoke out at one of the sentencing hearings that have been going on at Ft. Meade since his conviction last month, telling the court on Wednesday that he was "sorry that [his] actions hurt people."
In what was reportedly a "quavering voice," Manning spoke for just a few minutes—only the third time he has spoken publicly since being arrested in June 2010 after leaking a huge trove of classified documents to WikiLeaks.
Judge Col. Denise Lind is expected to sentence Manning sometime next week. Manning could face up to 90 years in prison.
"At the time of my decisions, as you know, I was dealing with a lot of issues, issues that are ongoing and continuing to affect me," Manning said in the prepared statement. "Although a considerable difficulty in my life, these issues are not an excuse for my actions. I understood what I was doing and decisions I made. However I did not fully appreciate the broader effects of my actions. Those factors are clear to me now, through both self-reflection during my confinement in various forms and through the merits and sentencing testimony that I have seen here. I am sorry for the unintended consequences of my actions. When I made these decisions I believed I was going to help people, not hurt people."
The "issues" that Manning seemed to allude to were the fact that he suffers from what psychologists and psychiatrists who worked with him called "gender identity disorder."
"Being in the military and having a gender identity issue does not exactly go hand in hand," Capt. Michael Worsley, a psychologist who treated Manning, testified before the court. "You put him in that kind of environment, this hyper masculine environment, with no coping skills, the pressure would have been incredible."
The court also heard testimony from his aunt and sister, who said that Manning had a difficult childhood, describing both of his parents as "alcoholics." All the witnesses' testimony, including Manning's, appeared to be an attempt to garner some leniency for him in the sentencing process.
"Unfortunately, I can't go back and change things," the 25-year-old said. "I can only go forward. I want to go forward. Before I can do that, I understand that I must pay a price for my decisions and actions. Once I pay that price, I hope to one day live in a manner that I haven't been able to in the past. I want to be a better person, to go to college, to get a degree and to have a meaningful relationship with my sister [and] with my sister's family and my family. I want to be a positive influence in their lives, just as my Aunt Deborah has been to me. I have flaws and issues that I have to deal with, but I know that I can and will be a better person. I hope that you can give me the opportunity to prove, not through words, but through conduct, that I am a good person and that I can return to productive place in society."

Caucus Coverage
- Slideshow: The Obama campaign in Vegas
- Blog: Actor wired in to Obama camp (1-13-07)
- Obama Bio
- Obama on the Issues
- Caucus Guide
In a Sun interview Sunday, Illinois Sen. Barack Obama addressed the suddenly front-and-center issue of race in his fight with New York Sen. Hillary Clinton for the Democratic presidential nomination.
Looking poised and relatively fresh given the grueling schedule of a presidential campaign, the senator from Illinois spoke in his customary manner — cool, measured, deliberate — about urban issues, his appeal to Hispanic voters and a controversial lawsuit about Saturday's caucus that is pitting some Clinton backers against Obama and the union that endorsed him last week, Culinary Union Local 226.

Also, the TV show "The Wire" came up.
Obama, framed by a portrait of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. in a Doolittle Community Center classroom, addressed the lawsuit in which a group of Democratic activists, including the state teachers union, is suing the Democratic Party, declaring as unfair the existence of nine at-large caucus sites on the Strip. Those sites are designed to allow shift workers union and nonunion to caucus in case the 11:30 a.m. start time falls during their workday. The plaintiffs say the Strip caucus sites are designed to give an unfair advantage to the Culinary.
Obama addressed the lawsuit head-on: "Look, the caucus structure was agreed to by every major player in the Democratic Party here in Nevada and was negotiated by the major players in the Democratic National Committee. Six days before the caucus is taking place, some of the people who were connected to setting up this very structure are now filing suit, trying to change the rules. It's hard not to draw the conclusion that people were unhappy about the outcome of the Culinary Union endorsement process and now people are trying to fix it. In the process it is disenfranchising dishwashers and bartenders who work hard and should be able to participate in their democracy."
Although Obama didn't mention it, his surrogates, including Culinary Secretary-Treasurer D. Taylor and state Sen. Steven Horsford, D-North Las Vegas, are quick to point out that many of those who would be "disenfranchised" are black or Hispanic.
For black voters especially, the issue of disenfranchisement is not to be trifled with, considering America's Jim Crow past and the history of willful suppression of the black vote.
Indeed, race has become a sudden and unavoidable fact of the presidential contest as it moves to the first state with a sizable minority population.
In recent weeks, Clinton allies have made a series of awkward and sometimes crass remarks that play to stereotypes about black men.
Billy Shaheen, her then-New Hampshire chairman, speaking about Obama's admission in his memoir that he used drugs as a teenager, said Obama would have to answer questions about whether he'd sold drugs. Shaheen resigned.
Andrew Cuomo, a Clinton supporter and New York's attorney general, said about New Hampshire, "You can't shuck and jive" there.
Robert Johnson, founder of Black Entertainment Television, seemed to imply that while Clinton and her husband, Bill Clinton, were working hard for black people, Obama was off doing drugs. Johnson later released a statement denying that that's what he meant.
Clinton recently seemed to downplay the role of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. in the passage of the Civil Rights Act.
"Dr. King's dream began to be realized when President Lyndon Johnson passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964, when he was able to get through Congress something that President Kennedy was hopeful to do, the president before had not even tried. But it took a president to get it done."
This series of events, which the Clinton camp says are discrete and easily explained, carries considerable risk of a backlash for her. Black voters could make up to 20 percent of Democratic caucusgoers in Nevada. White Democrats might react angrily to any impression that the Clinton campaign hascoordinated an effort to use race against Obama.
On the news show "Meet the Press," Clinton accused the Obama campaign of distorting what she said about King: "Clearly, we know from media reports that the Obama campaign is deliberately distorting this ... It is such an unfair and unwarranted attempt to, you know, misinterpret and mischaracterize what I've said."
Asked by the Sun about the racial tenor of the race, Obama replied: "I am puzzled by it. She made a statement about Dr. King that I think was ill-advised. But I said nothing about it. Suddenly, she is blaming us for distorting her words. I don't know how I could distort her words since I hadn't commented on her words since she made the statement. Now you see this ratcheting up of rhetoric coming out of her surrogates. I find it puzzling."
Asked whether Hispanics, who make up one-quarter of Nevada's population, would support a black candidate for president, he deflected the question and said they probably know the Clintons better than they know him. He then laid out a list of policy proposals designed to help Hispanics, including immigration changes that would provide a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants, school dropout prevention programs and money for college.
"If Latino voters examine my track record, I think they'll feel enormous confidence that I will be strong advocate on behalf of equal opportunity and fairness."
If the recent Culinary endorsement is to mean anything, Obama will have to appeal to Hispanics, who make up 40 percent of the union's membership.
He also discussed his agenda for healthier cities, which includes early childhood education, job creation and drug treatment, all aimed at breaking a cycle of poor people with few opportunities going into the drug trade, which leads to prison, making them almost permanently unemployable.
Michael Kostroff, an actor who was in town to volunteer for Obama and had a chance to meet him, told the Sun that Obama's favorite TV show is his own: HBO's "The Wire," which chronicles Baltimore's violent drug culture and the police who quixotically try to stop it.
Obama told the Sun his favorite character is Omar, a stick-up artist who steals from drug dealers and then gives the loot to poor people in the neighborhood.
"That's not an endorsement. He's not my favorite person, but he's a fascinating character."

Batch programs can be installed and executed on two platforms, AppWorx and Banner. It is possible that an application may exist on both platforms due to scheduled as well as ad hoc execution requirements. This chapter provides instructions for the installation of batch processes on both AppWorx and Banner platforms.
Before installing a batch program, your SQL or UNIX script must have been developed, tested and approved. Refer to Chapter 3 for information on the creation of batch program files.
Banner batch jobs are user-executable programs that can be submitted by an authorized user on demand. The customer logs into Internet Native Banner, enters the name of the job on the GUAGMNU form and runs the job from the resulting GJAPCTL form (along with parameters if needed).
In order to put your completed Banner program into production, you will need to assign your program a job name. The format for a job name is a three character prefix followed by a four-digit number (e.g. WSA1234). For UNF-created Banner jobs, the first character is always "W". The second and third characters represent the related Banner system and Banner module, respectively.
A list of Banner system codes is contained in the table WTIJSYS. The valid module codes for each system can be found in the database table WTIJMOD. For the number portion of the job name, each of the system areas has its own numbering scheme. To name your new program, consult the UNF Job Catalog in Banner Self-Service and choose a number that is not already in use.
Add your job to the job catalog. Refer to Chapter 3 for details on completing the catalog entry.
Before you can define your job to Banner, you must create default security records for it. To do this, log on to Banner INB. On the main menu (GUAGMNU), enter WIX5001 in the direct access field at the top of the form. This will place you in the Banner job submission form. Enter your new job name as the parameter and submit the job. Review the output to make sure the job successfully added the security records.
Now you can define the job to Banner. Access Banner job definition form GJAJOBS from GUAMNU.
If your job accepts parameters, you will need to define them. Access Banner form GJAPDEF from GUAMNU.
Now you can install your program on Hood (the production database server). Use the job name to name the UNIX file that contains your batch program. For SQL*Plus scripts, CSV Downloads, and SQL*Plus Reports, add an extension of ".sql." and save your program in the directory /home/norf/nfjobs/sql For a UNIX shell script do not add an extension and save your program in the directory /home/norf/nfjobs/exec.
The name of your UNIX script should always be in lower case. So, if we assume our example job WSA1234 is a SQL*Plus script, the program name will be wsa1234.sql.
You must always ensure that your program file has the correct UNIX file permissions. For the SQL files, the permissions should be set to the level 664. For UNIX shell scripts, the permission level should be set to 775. You can set permissions by entering the chmod command.
For sql programs:
chmod 664 jobname.sql
For UNIX shell script programs:
chmod 775 jobname
Banner jobs always require a second file to be placed on the server. The name of this file will be your job name plus the extension ".shl". This file will be placed in the directory /sct/banner/nfpo/norf/exe. This file name should be in lower case. So, in our example, the file will be wsa1234.shl.
The shell component is necessary to direct and format the output file (if any) and to meet Banner system requirements for job control. However, you do not have to code the file manually. Instead, you should copy the file from one of several template files located in the same directory. You determine which template file to copy based upon the type of program you created. Refer to Chapter 1 for information on the various batch program types.
Again, assuming our example job WSA1234 is a SQL*Plus script, we would copy the template file unfsqlp.shl by issuing the command:
cp unfsqlp.shl wsa1234.shl
The contents of the template files are identical except for one word (in bold in the example below). That word will match the template file name without the extension.
echo "$0 begins " `date` > $log
/home/norf/nfjobs/exec/unfsqlp "$UID" "$UIPW" "$ONE_UP" "$PROC" "$PRNT"
echo "$0 ends" `date` >> $log
The permission level for the shell file must be at level 775.
Checklist for installing batch programs in Banner
Copy the appropriate shell script from the shell templates.

Detail of the towers of La Sagrada Familia
Discover an unparalleled architectural gem, a unique creation that has become Barcelona's most universal symbol. Come and get to know the Sagrada Familia, the pinnacle of Antoni Gaudi's creation, a monumental church comprised of shapes, towers, curves and complex, unique sculptures.
Soaring, vertical, stylised... it defies the heights. This is how the Sagrada Familia rises up towards the sky. It is Barcelona's most visited building, a symbol of the Catalonian capital and the finest work of modernist architect Antoni Gaudí.
To see the Sagrada Familia in all its glory and appreciate its details close-to, the best thing is to go up to its highest point (either by lift or climbing a long spiral staircase) - one hundred metres above ground. This is the only way to see Antoni Gaudí's creative conception, in this, his finest work. The architect leaves nothing to chance. His genius shines through in a huge building whose thousands of different elements come together in perfect harmony.
The Sagrada Familia is a grandiose work, architecturally complex and full of religious symbolism. The great genius dedicated more than 40 years to the church, and, after his death in 1926, the project continued according to his original plans and drawings.
Stone, brick, tile and glass come together in unimaginable (and technically difficult) architectural designs. Religious sculptures, immense stained-glass windows and a host of decorative elements are fundamental to the work. Standing out overall are its impressive towers, more than 100 metres high. They force you to look upwards in order to take in this massive church, which, once completed, will have 18 towers, its highest reaching 170 metres.
We should also mention the facades of the Birth and Passion of Christ, the Rosario doorway and the interior of the nave and cloisters. Here, there is a Museum with models, original drawings, artefacts, sketches and furniture that help to understand the creativity and complexity behind this unique project, which has become a symbol of Barcelona worldwide.
Gaudí's mark
Antoni Gaudí was an artist who revolutionised the canons of architecture and became the prime exponent of Spanish and Catalonian Modernism. Barcelona is home to many fine works by the architect, buildings that enchant and captivate all those who behold them. A stroll along the trails of the Park Güell, with its stunning views over the city; the seductive undulating, expressionist facade of La Pedrera (Casa Milà House); the multitude of abstract decorations of Casa Batlló House or Palau Güell Palace … All these come together to form a unique experience that attracts millions of visitors year after year. In any case, these are just a few of the architectural treasures by Gaudí to be found in Barcelona, a cosmopolitan, open, modern and friendly city which has become one of the world's prime tourist destinations.

Nobody knows what the Danbury girls where thinking when they stepped onto Falcon Field for the 1987 girls softball championship, but they couldn't have been happy. Just a few months earlier Kris Mach had dashed the Hatters' hopes for a girls basketball title with a last second basket, and there she was swinging her bat. Tracy Ciosek was on that hoops team, too, and there she was warming up as Southington's ace.
Sports fans love stories about redemption. Movies have been made about comebacks and retribution. This story is not one of them.
Dwight Moore, a sports reporter for the Southington Observer in 1987, remarked, "The results turned out the same, with but one difference. There'd be no close game…no last second heroics…and things would be decided quickly, early, and decisively."
This is a story about dominance, winning streaks, and state titles. This is a story about Southington softball in the middle of its 1980s heyday.
"We had a small group of kids on this team that played softball and basketball," said former Lady Knight softball coach and an assistant coach Ron Piazza. "They were a part of five state championships in their six possible seasons. It was amazing."
In retrospect, nobody should have been surprised. After all, the 1987 title was Southington's third state championship in as many years and their eighth title in 11 seasons, but it wasn't a sure thing when practice began in mid-March.
"We lost four seniors off the 1986 team, and all four of them were all-staters," said Piazza. "Those four accounted for 140 runs, 129 hits, 120 RBI. They had nine of our 12 homeruns and 65 of our 71 stolen bases. We lost a lot…We knew that we were going to have to switch some people around, and we were lucky that we got some young kids that stepped up."
Of course it helped to have one of the most successful pitchers in Southington history on the mound. Senior co-captain Tracy Ciosek was a shortstop-turned-pitching ace that was just as deadly with her glove as she was with a pitch. Behind her was an all-star lineup, including seasoned seniors like Melodie Johnson, Cheryl Danko, Cheryl Bradley, Chris Zimmer, and the one that really upset Danbury—Mach.
Still, Piazza had a lot of questions at the start. Those would be answered early. Right out of the gates, Southington batters took charge. Southington outscored 80-3 to race out to a quick 6-0 start. During that stretch, Ciosek bookended a perfect game with a pair of no-hitters. The Knight knocked off a Norwalk powerhouse to start the streak and dropped the No. 2 team in the state with an 11-1 victory over Bristol Central.
"There were an awful lot of questions going into that 87 season, but they all got answered," said Piazza. "When we beat Norwalk, 9-0, in that first game, I knew we were okay. Norwalk was always a really good team back then. We were scoring runs. We had a good group. Sure, there were teams that gave us trouble along the way, and it was those teams that had pitchers that weren't throwing hard."
Southington never slowed and they picked off opponents like a marksman at the range. The team rallied for 12 shutouts. They outscored opponents, 220-15, and finished the regular season with a perfect 20-0 record.
The Knights had strong hitting throughout the lineup. Johnson led the attack with a .456 batting average, but Kristin Wilcox (.444), Zimmer (.430), Bradley (.405), and Dawn Lantiere (.410) each broke the .400 barrier. As a team, Southington batted .340 with a slugging percentage approaching .500. The girls combined for 191 hits and 60 were extra base hits.
"That 87 team stands out for me because of the way that they were able to regroup in the beginning of the year," Piazza said. "Kids were called upon to step up. The kid that was the second base on the 86 team was moved to first base. Our shortstop shifted to second base and we brought in a sophomore, Dawn Lantiere, to play shortstop. We brought in a sophomore third baseman. They just gelled together and ran the table. They made a consistent run and never let down. They were a proud group of kids."
As it turns out the regular season was just a warmup for the tournament because this may be one of the most dominant postseason teams in Southington history. They beat Cheshire, 8-0, in the second round. They surged past Holy Cross, 6-3, in the quarterfinals, and advanced to the championship game with a 24-1 rout over Windham that quieted even the staunchest of critics.
Colleen Steinnagel went 4-for-5 with a homerun and five RBI to pace Southington's 16-hit attack, and Windham never knew what hit them.
"Windham expected to win. A lot of people gave them a good chance to beat us, and I did too," Piazza said, "But after the second inning you could see that Windham was totally deflated. They were just going through the motion. Balls were dropping in that they probably should have caught because they had just lost their drive. I almost felt bad for them because we never tried to run the score up. When you look at our scores that year and you see a 29, it could have probably been 40."
That set up the rematch with Danbury in the finals. Once again, Southington hit the ground running. Ciosek held the Hatters to five hits with one walk and nine strikeouts, including five strikeouts in the last two innings. Seven of Southington's starting nine contributed to the lopsided win with Zimmer leading the way at 3-for-4. Mach, Lantiere, Ciosek, and Bradley had two hits apiece. Johnson had four RBI with two sacrifice flies and a double. The Knights finished with 14 hits in the game.
When the dust had settled, Southington had earned another state title. More impressive was a 52-game winning streak that stretched back to the 1985 state tournament. It was a state record at the time, and one that would take 20 years to break.
"It was amazing," Piaza said. "It only takes a ball hitting a pebble. It takes a walk or an error to break a streak like that. To have one go that long was great for our program. Every time we won, it was a headline. We got national attention. They started a national women's fastpitch magazine at the time. It's no longer in use, but they featured us on the cover. "
Once again, the Lady Knights had raised the bar for future Southington teams, but Piazza said that their legacy was their resilience. This wasn't a team that was expected to race through the schedule so easily. This wasn't a team that was expected to win, but they did it with ease.
On Thursday, Nov. 8, the team will finally be honored in an induction ceremony at the Aqua Turf Club in Plantsville. For tickets, contact Jim Verderame, (860) 628-7335.
"The legacy of that team was their resilience. They put themselves together at the beginning of the year, not knowing what they were going to do, and they got better as the year went on," said Piazza. "We caught breaks. We made breaks for ourselves. The pitching was good, but the defense was just as good. The hitting—what can you say? They came through when we needed them to come through."

Revision as of 20:58, November 3, 2005
Can we put something in the files marked with this template that shows how the non-Chalcedonian opinions expressed are "at variance" with the Orthodox understanding? --Matrona 10:25, 3 November 2005 (CST)
- Certainly! Noting the opposition is always useful and good, ISTM, so long as it is done as neutrally and factually as possible. I haven't been reviewing the articles in question, as I haven't had time between ordination and seminary assignments lately, so please forgive me for that. But all are welcome to work on these articles. The texts of contributed articles needs to remain as submitted, but there's no reason extra sections noting disagreements can't be added. —Fr. Andrew talk contribs (THINK!) 13:25, 3 November 2005 (CST)
Tome of Leo link, etc.
I removed the link to Leo's Tome, as simply reading it won't give a detailed discussion of the particular difficulties that may be covered in each article. Additionally, I'd prefer to keep this template as compact as possible.
Perhaps we could include an article critiquing OO Christology from the POV of Chalcedonian Christology, which could be linked from this template marker. Further, each article which includes this template should ideally include a section charting the Chalcedonian POV.
See further comments at Talk:Oriental Orthodox.—Fr. Andrew talk contribs (THINK!) 14:42, 3 November 2005 (CST)
- Yeah, I wasn't talking about anything like what Arbible did. What I was thinking of, was a paragraph or link appended to each article (not part of the template) explaining how the article's contents depart from Orthodox Christology. For instance, a non-Chal POV article relating to monotheletism ought to have a link explaining what monotheletism is and why Orthodox reject it as heresy. --Matrona 14:58, 3 November 2005 (CST)

TC Electronic PolyTune 3
Az e termékhez tartozó tartalom előkészítés illetve feltöltés alatt van.
Positively PolyTune
The original PolyTune rocked the world. It forever changed the way we look at tuning. Was it the jaw-droppingly awesome polyphonic tuning that made tuning much faster, easier and intuitive? The bright LED matrix with auto-dimming that ensured maximum visibility? Tuning Magnet, the slowing of the needle as you approached the correct pitch? Maybe the MonoPoly technology that sensed whether you played one or six strings and instantly adjusted accordingly?
Like musicians who never really know how they wrote that number 1 hit, it was probably a combination of factors for us. Whatever it was, you loved it and we loved it! But at TC Electronic we're all about moving forward, so we've improved on perfection and added some guitarist gems that cement PolyTune 2 as the leader of the pedal tuning pack.
- PolyTune® Technology - Tune All Strings Simultaneously
- Retina-scorching Bright Display
- Ultra-precise Chromatic Strobe Tuner
Polyphonic Perfection
Unless you've been living under a rock for the past few years, you'll know this. With PolyTune, you simply strum all strings on your guitar or bass at once and it will immediately tell you which strings need tuning! It really is as simple as strum - tune - rock! This way, you spend minimum time tuning and maximum time doing what you love the most - playing.
And They Thought Einstein Was Bright!
You ain't seen nothing yet! The display on PolyTune 2 is primed with some of the brightest LEDs you've ever laid your eyes on. Remember when some tuners were really good for daytime gigs, and others excelled in dark clubs? With PolyTune 2, you get an instant clear overview, no matter what the situation. And the ambient light sensor makes sure you get just the right amount of brightness. Every time. It's truly amazing how bright they get, so don't come complaining if planets want to orbit your pedalboard.
The Strobe Is Strong With This One
The original PolyTune was best in class when it came to precision. Great - but why stop there? We've received many requests from the guitar community to add a strobe tuner - a decision we'd been debating internally as well. So let there be strobe! For fine-tuning your precious gear and giving it the care and attention it deserves, to super accurate tuning in the studio or by a roadie on stage. This strobe tuner is lightning fast and ultra precise. But how precise is it? Well, let's just say if you tune and then put your pick on the fret-board - you're going to see the difference (we're not even joking).
Backstage Pass - All Access
With PolyTune 2, we wanted enhanced performance and maximum precision, without getting away from what made the original PolyTune such a hit. Have a look at our feature list, which combines the revolutionary with a strong display of innovation.
- PolyTune: Strum - Tune - Rock! PolyTune® is the world's first polyphonic tuner – a multiple patents pending, game-changing total tuning turnaround that allows you to instantly gauge the tuning of all your strings simultaneously and tune up on the fly, ALL strings at once. What else can we say besides: BAM, son!
- Chromatic Champ: Besides the Polyphonic tuner, PolyTune has a chromatic tuner that can hang with the best current tuning technology out there, with an amazing 0.5 cent accuracy.
- Brighten Up Your Day: This feature will make you smile. Basically, the new LEDs in PolyTune 2 are bright enough to be seen from space, but the ambient light sensor in PolyTune 2 ensures you always have the right brightness. The result? A clear and pleasant visibility, no matter what situation you're in.
- Full Strobe Ahead: The strobe tuner in PolyTune 2 is super accurate and super fast. Finetune your instruments with surgical precision at blinding speeds. Sounds good, right? We're talking +/- 0.1Cent tuning accuracy and in case you don't really know what that means – believe us there are atomic clocks that'd kill for that accuracy.
- Tuning Magnet: The tuner magnet feature slows down the needle once you get close to the desired pitch, delivering a quick and easy tuning experience – any time, every time.
- MonoPoly: MonoPoly instantly recognizes whether you play one or more strings and replies with the appropriate polyphonic or monophonic tuning mode.
- True Bypass: This allows for your carefully sculpted tone to flow unaffected when the pedal is bypassed and for silent tuning once engaged.
- Total Recall: PolyTune 2 stores your preferences. From pitch reference to tuning mode, it hangs on to this information even after it is powered down, making sure you only have to set how you want things to happen once.

Benchmarking 101: How to Pay Your New Hires
By Bridget Quigg, PayScale.com
Are you ready to hire a new employee, or perhaps your first payroll employee?
If so, be prepared for several challenges.
You must first clearly define the job requirements, recruit candidates, review resumes and finally face that big ogre, setting pay.
How do you decide what to offer a new hire? According to the compensation experts at salary database PayScale.com, the key is to figure out the market you are competing in.
One hint: It may not be as obvious as you think.
Benchmarking: Who Is Your Competition?
In Human Resources "speak," benchmarking is the term used for assessing your competition and putting a price on talent.
When benchmarking, you determine what the market is paying for the job skills, education, expertise, geography and other factors that can affect pay for the job.
Your competition is not the one other company in town that does what you do. You have to think broader than that. Instead, consider these other factors:
1. Future business plans. Where do you want your company to be in five years?
2. Location. What is the demand in your area for the skills you seek?
3. Company size. Even though you're small, you may need to pay certain professionals a big company salary.
"Many people think about their organization exactly as it can be described today – geography, size, product, etc. – when determining pay. But, if you do this you may be missing out," says PayScale compensation consultant, Stacey Carroll, CCP, SPHR.
Your Future
Is your goal to sell your product in 10 more stores?
If so, you need to have the business development and sales talent on your staff to make that happen.
That means hiring like an 11-store organization for your sales or business development person.
To do so, you will likely need to pay a base salary like the 11-store guys and set up a reward system for this talent to get you there.
The takeaway: For a critical role that affects your business success and future, pretend you're bigger than you are.
Your Location
Keep in mind too that your company's location affects the costs of certain skills.
For example, the pay trends show that software developer compensation is higher in Seattle where a developer earns more ($88,420) than one Chicago ($82,600,) a difference of over $6,000 per year in median annual pay for a professional with eight years of experience, according to PayScale.
Why the difference? Because in Seattle, top talent is fought over by numerous, successful tech companies like Amazon, Microsoft and Nintendo. Plus, pay in Seattle is simply growing faster.
The takeaway: You may be wise to hire a software developer in Chicago and have them work remotely to get you started for less.
Your Company Size Matters
Generally speaking, the larger the organization, the higher the pay because the bigger players have big labor budgets.
That said, if you are a small company but want the level of talent found at a larger organizations, you need to adjust your benchmarking.
For example, if the quality of your company's web design will enable you to compete with larger organizations, you'll want to recruit graphic designers, content producers and network support staff who can produce outstanding results.
Compensation Is Complicated
In the end, compensation is complicated. Hundreds of factors can influence a pay decision.
Out of respect for your new hires, and to avoid legal trouble, take the time to research your market, knowing that it may change depending on the job position.
Then, document your choices, be responsive and keep improving your recruitment process.

Last time, I linked to some example code that forks a bunch of processes and communicates with them via pipes. This is the main feature of the code I'm interested in, but the explanation is the article is kinda sparse so you can consider this to be supplemental.
As usual, the perl doco is pretty good for covering this stuff.
Creating a child process (a kid) involves two pipes, one for the parent to send data to the kid, and one for the kid to send data back to the parent.
One probably obvious thing to note, you can't directly send a reference down a pipe, (well, not in any reasonable way and that's a feature, not a bug), so you'll be interested in serialisation modules. I've mentioned them in passing before and I generally use JSON::XS these days.
Another hopefully obvious thing is if the writer is buffered and the reader is waiting for something specific, there will probably be some deadlock in your future. Remember to unbuffer the writer.
I made a couple more J – comments inline:
sub create_kid { my $to_kid = IO::Pipe->new; my $from_kid = IO::Pipe->new; # J - Fork returns undef for failure, 0 for the child, and the # J - child PID for the parent # J - Handle fork error defined (my $kid = fork) or return; # if can't fork, try to make do unless ($kid) { # I'm the kid # J - The kid reads from $to_kid and writes to $from_kid $to_kid->reader; $from_kid->writer; # J - unbuffer writing to the pipes. Otherwise may deadlock $from_kid->autoflush(1); # J - Reset all of the signal handling $SIG{$_} = 'DEFAULT' for grep !/^--/, keys %SIG; # very important! do_kid($to_kid, $from_kid); exit 0; # should not be reached } # J - parent here... # J - The parent reads from $from_kid and writes to $to_kid $from_kid->reader; $to_kid->writer; # J - unbuffer writing to the pipes. Otherwise may deadlock $to_kid->autoflush(1); $kids{$kid} = [$to_kid, $from_kid]; $kid; }

David Dobson of RV World in Fredericton, New Brunswick, was presented with the prestigious 2009 Canadian RV Dealer of the Year Award this past weekend at the 2009 RV and Camping Convention held in Victoria, British Columbia.
"This is truly an honor, and I am so fortunate to have the opportunity to work in such a remarkable industry," said Dobson, (shown at left holding the award with with last year's recipient, Wayne Hambly of PEI Home & RV Centre in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island).
Jo-Ann Searls, from RV Lifestyle Magazine, presented the award, named the Walter Paseska Memorial Canadian RV Dealer of the Year Award, according to a news release.
Starting in the RV industry as part of the family business in the early 1980s, Dobson left the industry temporarily to work in the air cargo business. In 1990, he returned to New Brunswick to rejoin the family business. In 1992, RV World was purchased by the Dobson family and since then, Dobson has grown the dealership from a six-person operation to a 25-person dealership.
Prior to holding various executive positions and the presidency on the Atlantic RV Dealers Association (RVDA) board, Dobson was instrumental in the amalgamation of Nova Scotia RVDA with the Atlantic RVDA. He currently has served as a director and most recently, treasurer on the RVDA of Canada board and was also the appointed representative on the Go RVing Canada board for two years.
In line with volunteering his time and expertise with the regional and national RVDAs, Dobson is also an avid community supporter through numerous charitable societies. As the founding director of the John T. MacMillan Jr. Memorial Foundation, he has helped over 25 families stricken with cancer to deal with hardships. The foundation was created in 2006 in hour of his late nephew. Dobson has also shown equal compassion toward the Crones and Colitis Foundation and Childhood Cancer Foundation.
His extensive list of community contributions include Knights of Columbus, Fred T. and the Oromocto Chapters, the Shriners, Soup Kitchen in Fredericton, local churches and parishes, military associations and their families, RCMP golf tournament annual fundraiser, local Sambories, and helping one family in need each year at Christmas.
Each year, the RVDA of Canada, in conjunction with RV Lifestyle Magazine and Dealer News, invites nominations from across Canada for the Canadian RV Dealer of the Year Award. The award is dedicated to the memory of Walt Paseska, founder of Walt's Trailer Sales in Headingley, Manitoba, in recognition of his many years of commitment and dedication to the RV industry.
Since established in 1989 by Camping Canada Magazine, this award has been presented to individuals who share Paseka's enthusiasm and commitment, in recognition of their long-term contribution to the RV lifestyle and commitment to the community as a whole.
The other nominees for this year's award were:
- Kevin Betzold, GNR Camping World, Manitoba.
- Bill Ortman, Village RV Centre, Saskatchewan (deceased).
- Rod Sellers, Sellers RV Centre, Saskatchewan.
- Irene Sturzenegger, Go West RV Sales, British Columbia.
- Kirk Thomson, Can-Am RV Centre, Ontario.

HTC Sensation 4G Pictures
HTC Sensation comes with a fresh serving of Android 2.3 Gingerbread, but it's all about the HTC Sense UI version 3.0 with a touch of refinement and functionality straight from the lock screen. You can choose between a number of lock screen options such as weather updates, quick access to apps and a handful of clock widgets. A 1.2GHz Qualcomm dual-core chipset supports the nice 3D-like transitions in the menu, all carrying resemblance to the ones on the HTC Flyer tablet. The phone is the first with a contoured glass 4.3-inch display meaning that your Super LCD screen is set back slightly to avoid scratches. The resolution is qHD (540x960) with an aspect ratio of 16:9. On the back you have an 8MP camera with dual-LED flash with "instant capture," meaning little to no lag between pictures. The camera is also capable of recording video at 30fps in full HD (1080p) resolution.
