Gerardo Parra will never forget how he felt when he was presented with his first Rawlings Gold Glove award. It happened during the Diamondbacks' season-opening homestand a year ago, and just thinking about it now still moves him.
"I remember all my fans standing up and screaming my number," Parra said. "I kept telling them, 'Thank you,' and it almost made me cry. It did. It really got to me."
It should have. Parra, after all, came off a Gold Glove season only to learn he had lost his regular starting job in left field. The Diamondbacks gave it to newcomer Jason Kubel.
Parra didn't complain then and isn't complaining now, even though there are strong indications he will once again open the season as the team's fourth outfielder.
Justin Upton is gone, but the Diamondbacks added veteran outfielder Cody Ross and have big plans for rookie center fielder Adam Eaton, whom they want to quickly develop into a starter and become their leadoff hitter.
For a player known for his feisty aggressiveness, Parra has refused to show any of it when it relates to his own playing time. He's staying quiet and trying to stay patient.

The first practical attempts at air transportation began with the invention of the hot-air balloon in 1783. However, transportation by air didn't become a reality until the beginning of the 20th cent. with the invention of the rigid airship (or Zeppelin) in 1900 and the first heavier-than-air flight by the Wright brothers in 1903. Although passenger flights were inaugurated after World War I, air transportation did not blossom until after World War II. The modern jet airplane now makes possible comfortable travel to virtually any point on the globe in just one day.

Universal testing would help prevent severe cases that can lead to brain damage, study finds
MONDAY, Sept. 28 (HealthDay News) -- New research suggests that a blood test in infants can catch many of those at risk for severe jaundice, a potentially dangerous condition.
The test measures levels of a bile pigment called bilirubin. The body makes bilirubin when it recycles old blood cells, and researchers have noticed that high levels are linked to jaundice.
In some cases, severe jaundice leads to seizures and brain damage. The condition makes a newborn's skin and the whites of the eyes look yellow, according to background information provided in a news release from the University of California San Francisco and Kaiser Permanente.
In a new study, which appears in the October issue of Pediatrics, researchers found that high levels of bilirubin can indicate that jaundice is in danger of becoming severe.
"While we know that early identification of bilirubin levels before reaching toxic levels is important, bilirubin screening has not been universal, as physicians have decided which infants to screen based upon their degree of jaundice and clinical risk factors," study author Dr. Michael Kuzniewicz, a neonatologist at University of California San Francisco Children's Hospital, said in the news release.
The researchers examined how implementation of American Academy of Pediatrics screening guidelines affected newborn babies in Northern California medical facilities operated by Kaiser Permanente. The guidelines advise that each newborn be given a bilirubin blood test or undergo an assessment.
"This study provides evidence that universal screening during the birth hospitalization is a more effective method for monitoring bilirubin levels in order to prevent them from rising to a point that can damage an infant's brain," Kuzniewicz stated.

Some security system sales call. Recorded message then it hung up.

Call for security system sales. I have had similar calls from phone numbers in Florida.
Showed Culver City,CA on my caller ID so I did not answer. This is not the first call from Culver City.
Security system wanting to replace the one I have. Funny, call is from California but I live on East Coast.
They call several times a day. I don't answer unknown numbers. I live in Utah.
Leaves a msg if you do not want to be on our marketing phone list please press 1? Didn't say who was calling or why they were calling
30, Aug. 2013When you call back there is a recorded message to be taken off their list, which won't go into effort for 72 hours. There is no option to talk to a live person.
Repeated, numerous calls over weeks were ignored, but they leave a promotional message on your machine. Finally picked up and pressed 9 for do-not call list. But (1) we're on the federal list already, and they're violating federal law by calling; (2) repeated intrusions are as annoying as bill collectors calling the wrong party. Contacted FTC but they are overwhelmed by volume of illegal operations that have figured ways around do-not call list.

Mistakes costly for Under 21s.
Liverpool 4 (Dunn 44, Iorfa-og 48, Lussey 49, Rossiter 55)
Wolves 0
The Wolves Under 21s suffered their heaviest defeat of the season as they slumped to a 4-0 reversal against Liverpool at Anfield with all of the goals coming in a 12 minute spell either side of the interval.
There was an early chance for Cameron Brannagan who sliced the ball wide after running on to a lobbed ball from Rafael Paez.
Stephen Sama fired wide after running in from the right before Jordan Cranston moved forward to give Wanderers their first worthwhile chance when he beat two defenders as he cut inside from the left before shooting narrowly wide.
In the 20th minute, Dominic Iorfa blocked well to deny Liverpool the lead as he got in the way of Kristoffer Peterson's goalbound shot after Jordan Lussey had delivered the cross.
Lussey then went close to breaking through after he took a return pass from Brannigan but Jon Flatt made a tremendous fingertip save to thwart the striker.
With seconds remaining in the first half Liverpool took the lead. Jack Dunn advanced from midfield and from 25yards he hit a low shot beyond the dive of Flatt.
Half-Time: Liverpool 1 Wolves 0
The opening minutes of the second period proved to be disastrous for the visitors as the Reds knocked in three further goals in quick succession.
In the 48th minute Iorfa turned a short, low cross from Dunn into his own net and, within 60 seconds, Lussey headed a third after a centre from Villyan Bijev.
With their tails up the Liverpool men went in search of a fourth and it arrived in the 55th minute as Jordan Rossiter wasn't closed down as he homed in on Flatt's goal before steering the ball into the corner of the net past the helpless keeper.
Despite having little chance of getting back into the game, the Molineux youngsters regrouped and almost pulled one back through Kristian Kostrna who hit a tremendous shot that was just of target.
Coach Steve Weaver said: "I just didn't see this coming given our first half performance when we more than matched Liverpool. Even when they scored just before half-time, I still believed that we could take something from the game.
"But then three bad individual mistakes were punished by three goals in just a few minutes and, all of a sudden, the game was gone.
"In each case we were trying to play the ball out from the back and, in each case, we lost possession. Then, after those crazy few minutes we reverted to the way we had played in the opening half. Obviously, by then it was too little, too late.
"The important thing now is to put it behind us and move on. Nothing can change the result now but it's vital that the players learn from the mistakes that they had made which proved to be so costly on the night."

LAPERRIČRE and Nora

Wife, mother, grandmother, nurse. Born October 18, 1943, in Dauphin,
Manitoba Died December 26, 2002 in Ottawa, of cancer, aged 59.
Sharon championed nurses and nursing. She was always on the lookout
for pioneers and heroes whom she visited, to know first-hand
what their work was like. Then she would tell the world.
On business in the Northwest Territories, she met with a nurse
in the community and learned she had established a Brownie group,
an effective way to create a healthier community for young girls.
She spent time with a "street nurse" in Toronto and told people
about the amazing nursing she had seen. Sharon noticed a Canadian
Living magazine contest and submitted an essay on the contribution
of nursing sisters. Hers was a winning entry and the prize was
a tulip garden planted in front of the Canadian Nurses Association
to honour the nursing sisters.
In becoming a nurse, Sharon was following in her mother's footsteps.
Sharon graduated from Misericordia Hospital in Winnipeg and began
her practice as a labour and delivery nurse. After moving to
Montreal, Sharon completed both her Bachelor of Nursing and a
graduate degree in counselling psychology. Returning to school
even while caring for four small children -- awakened in her
the understanding of nursing's vast possibilities and her commitment
to the profession.
For more than 10 years, Sharon taught nursing at John Abbott
College in Montreal. She was a role model of nursing and teaching
at its best. One patient, a woman in the final stages of multiple
sclerosis, was considered difficult by staff but not by Sharon.
Sharon recognized that this woman was a talented storyteller
who dreamed of writing a children's story. Sharon helped her
realize her dream by listening to the story, writing it down
and finding a way to have it published. The woman lived to see
her story in print.
In 1992, Sharon joined the Canadian Nurses Association in Ottawa,
in time becoming the director of nursing policy. At the national
level, she was alert to the impact nursing can have and was a
ray of hope at a difficult time. She didn't shy away from tackling
the hard issues (such as the role of the nurse practitioner)
for which consensus needed to be built across the country. Sharon's
influence extended beyond Canada. Twice she visited the Ethiopian
Nurses Association. The Ethiopian Nurses Association president
wrote: "She was like a mother who was nurturing our association
to stand on its own feet."
She was a mentor to many and revelled in the achievements of
others -- completing a course, having an article published, giving
up smoking or having a baby. A firm believer in having fun at
work, Sharon convened occasional meetings at a neighbourhood
coffee shop which she dubbed the "Elgin Street office." At work,
Sharon would often say: "I've got to get a life." This was frequently
followed by: "Jack [her husband] has a life, and I don't." And
even sometimes by: "Jack's having more fun than I am." We always
chuckled: We knew and Sharon knew that she was enjoying a truly
wonderful life both at work and beyond.
She showed how to balance work and personal goals. Regardless
of what was happening at work, she made it clear that the moment
a new grandchild was born (there were seven) she was gone. Cottage
time with her husband, their four children and grandchildren
was sacrosanct.
During her illness, Sharon continued to give us lessons in living.
When she left work on sick leave, she spoke openly about her
cancer and informed her co-workers that she was going out to
do some "undercover" work on the health-care system. Through
her final days, with humour and grace, she reminded us of the
power of love, the importance of family and the meaning faith
can give to life.
Barbara and Nora are Sharon's Friends.

By Richard
May 19, 2003 - Page A14
Diplomat, broadcaster, friend. Born February 22, 1916, in Dublin,
Ireland. Died March 23 in Toronto, of a stroke, aged 87.
Peter Campbell had three distinguished careers: in war, in diplomacy,
and in broadcasting, with a short epilogue in education.
He received his primary education in England (his parents emigrated
when he was 12) and
in Canada. He was a scholarship-winning graduate
of University of Toronto Schools, and proud all his life of the
fine notices he received there as Lady Macbeth.
He got his B.A. from the University of Toronto where he was chess
champion and won a scholarship to Harvard where he completed
his M.A. in Classical Studies.
After Harvard, Peter joined the Royal Canadian Navy, serving
in the North Atlantic, Britain and at the Normandy invasion where
he commanded the leading large-troop carrier that took Canadians
to Juno Beach. He spent most of his war as an officer on the
corvette Eyebright.
His war service stayed with him, making him at ease with people
with backgrounds very different than his own. Peter's highest
praise was that someone had given a "sturdy" performance. Sturdiness
was the quality he most admired, and that, I suspect, came from
the demands of a bleak and threatening North Atlantic in the
most unglamorous and unthreatening of "war" ships, the corvette.
But if the Navy demanded "sturdiness", the External Affairs Department,
which he joined in 1946, rewarded brilliance. Peter
served with distinction in the Philippines, Washington and the
Far East. While in Laos he is credited with having played an
important role in the negotiation of the Laos agreement that
successfully prevented Laos from becoming involved in the Vietnam
War. There, while not yet 40, he achieved the rank of Ambassador
as Canadian head of the International Supervisory Commission.
As usual, Peter's methods were unorthodox. The Paris daily Le
Monde, reported in detail on a party at the Canadian Embassy,
where a grand hall had been cleared of furniture so that two
nets ("cages," I think, was the translation of the word used
by Le Monde), could be placed at opposite ends of the room so
that the guests could play hockey with the sticks and "rondelle"
recently arrived from Ottawa "at the Ambassador's request...
The game was a huge success but the many minor injuries sustained
would probably prevent it from being widely imitated," Le Monde
In 1959, Peter joined Canadian Broadcasting Corporation as a
program organizer. He would rise to be head of the public affairs
department. At the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, sturdiness
and brilliance mellowed into judgment. His specialty was foreign
affairs, but his style as a supervisor encouraged creativity
as well as self-discipline.
When his department was amalgamated with the news department,
bringing to an end, some would say, the Canadian Broadcasting
Corporation's distinguished role as a forum for Canadian opinion,
he became responsible for Broadcast Policy and Standards. He
was kept on in that capacity even after his official retirement.
He also held a teaching position at York. There, he stimulated
a sense of responsibility among students of broadcasting and
film, and nothing in his life gave him as much satisfaction as
the Honorary Doctor of Letters (Honoris Causa) awarded him on
June 15, 1998.
On that day, he ended his address with the thought that "without
passion and a lively critical sense, the spirit is dormant."
Peter's spirit remained "sturdy" through the whole of his 87
very productive years and his mind remained alert and his chess
game formidable. As the Buddhists say, he was "a joyful presence
amidst the sorrows of the world."

He founded Readers' Club of Canada
Nationalist visionary struggled financially to publish Canadian
By Carol COOPER
Special to The Globe and Mail Tuesday, April
22, 2003 - Page R7
In the early 1960s, when writers asked Peter and Carol
where to publish their manuscripts on Canada, the couple realized
how few choices there were. Inspired, the Martins, both voracious
readers, staunch nationalists and founders of the Readers' Club
of Canada, decided to start their own press. In 1965, Peter Martin
Associates came into being. Last month, Peter
MARTIN died of
lung cancer in Ottawa.
In an industry overshadowed by American companies, Peter
Associates was among the first in a wave of independent publishing
houses to open during a time of rising Canadian nationalism.
Launched in a downtown Toronto basement on a shoestring budget,
skeleton staff, idealism and enthusiasm, the company flew by
the seat of its pants. Its employees were often young and new
to the business. But many, including Peter
and Valerie
WYATT, went on to become Canadian mainstays.
"It really was a time of Canadian nationalism and those of us
who believed in that cause could see what Peter and Carol were
doing," said Ms.
WYATT, a children's editor who spent four years
with the company in the seventies.
During the 16 years before its sale in 1981, Peter Martin Associates
published approximately 170 works, mainly non-fiction. Its presses
put out I, Nuligak, the autobiography of an Inuit man; The Boyd
Gang by Marjorie
LAMB and Barry
Trapping is My Life
by John TETSO; and the Handbook of Canadian Film by Eleanor
Others who came through their doors included Hugh
FULFORD, John Robert
COLOMBO, Douglas
FETHERLING and Mary Alice
DOWNIE -- all to have their works published.
Started with small amounts of seed money from private investors
and no government funding, Peter Martin Associates constantly
struggled financially. At one point, for a bit of extra cash,
the office became the designated nuclear-fallout shelter for
the street. Pat
DACEY, once the firm's book designer, lugged
suitcases of books up the street to sell at Britnell's bookstore
with summer employee Bronwyn
Working at Peter Martin Associates was always fun, Ms.
said. "You went in to work happy and you stayed happy all day."
Still, in a time when Canadian works received little recognition,
she remembers finding it difficult to get media interviews for
the author of Martin-published book.
Yet another title caused trouble with its subject. The company
was putting out a collection of previously published sayings
of former prime minister John
DIEFENBAKER, called I Never Say
Anything Provocative, edited by Margaret
WENTE. Mr.
heard about the project, called Mr.
MARTIN and threatened to
sue. Mr. MARTIN stood firm.
"He handled it with such élan," said writer Tim
then in the art department. "He was suitably dutiful, but not
in awe. Mr.
DIEFENBAKER was just over the top, as was his wont."
The book went to press and Mr.
DIEFENBAKER did not go to court.

article on "Young Men to Watch," Mr.
MARTIN was born on April
26, 1934 in Ottawa to a dentist father and a mother who drove
an ambulance in the First World War. The younger of two sons,
he attended Trinity College School in Port Hope, Ontario and
the University of Toronto, where he earned a degree in philosophy.
During a year in Ottawa as the president of the National Federation
of University Students, Mr.
MARTIN met his first wife
They married in 1956 and moved to Toronto. Three years later,
they founded the Readers' Club in Featuring one Canadian book
a month, it distributed works by Mordecai
Morley CALLAGHAN and Brian
MOORE among others, and supplied its
members with coupons. While continuing to run the Readers' Club
(sold in 1978 to Saturday Night Magazine and closed in 1981),
the MARTINs started Peter Martin Associates.
Throughout his career, Mr.
MARTIN spoke out for Canadian publishing.
Alarmed by the sale of Ryerson Press and Gage Educational Press
in 1970 to American firms, he called a meeting of publishers
to discuss problems in the industry. Named the Independent Publishers
Association, the group started in 1971 with 16 members and with
Mr. MARTIN as its first president. In 1976, it was renamed the
Association of Canadian Publishers and continues today with 140
members. As a result of the group's efforts, Canadian publishing
began to receive federal and provincial funding.
In the late 1970s, the
MARTINs went their separate ways. Afterward,
Mr. MARTIN published a small newspaper, The Downtowner, and owned
a cookbook store with his second wife, Maggie
NIEMI. In 1983,
they moved near Sudbury, Ontario, where Mr.
MARTIN did freelance
book and theatre reviews, then moved to Ottawa in 1985 to work
as president for Balmuir Books, publisher of the magazine International
Perspectives and consulting editor for the University of Ottawa
After a spinal-cord injury in 1997, Mr.
MARTIN was left a quadriplegic,
except for limited use of his left arm. Even so, he remained
active, maintained a heavy e-mail correspondence and spent time
in the park reading while seated in a bright-yellow wheelchair.
Mr. MARTIN leaves his children Pamela, Christopher and Jeremy
and his wife
NIEMI. He died on March 15.

If this is your first time purchasing a latex mattress, the wide range of brands and options might be a little bit confusing. On the outside looking in, one brand looks much the same as any other. There are, however, a few things you should look for that may help you make your buying decision.
Do Latex Mattresses Off Gas?
Off gassing is a fairly major concern among people interested in purchasing a new mattress. Consumers consider a wide variety of factors when purchasing new mattresses such as, size, comfort, support, durability, lifespan, etc. As consumers become more educated, however, they're more interested in issues involving the airflow of the mattress and whether or not off gassing is a concern.
Natural Latex Foam
The American Chiropractic Association says that, "Back pain is one of the most common reasons for missed work. In fact, back pain is the second most common reason for visits to the doctor's office, outnumbered only by upper-respiratory infections." Since new mattresses are often recommended as a first line of defense against back pain, it makes perfect sense that millions of Americans each year are beginning to explore their mattress options in search of something better than what they currently have. One option that more and more people are turning to is the natural latex foam mattress. How much do you know about this mattress?
Why Natural Latex Makes for a Healthier Mattress
Natural latex has a lot to offer consumers when it comes to mattresses. Not only does it provide for a much better night's sleep, but it also has a few secret benefits that aren't as widely known about latex and the mattresses it creates.
The Eco-Conscious Choice of a Natural Latex Mattress
Making an environmentally-sound purchasing choice is becoming an important factor for an increasing number of consumers. When it comes to a mattress, like many other purchases, the hard part is deciding what is the best choice for your needs, budget, and planetary commitment. There are many different mattresses on the market today, but few represent the sheer eco-conscious nature of a natural latex mattress. These are just some of the reasons why natural latex mattresses are a great choice for anyone hoping to lend a helping hand to the planet you call home.
Best Mattress for Side Sleepers
According to WebMD, 63 percent of Americans are side sleepers. That means that a large percentage of the population needs to be looking for mattresses that have certain properties best suited for a good nights sleep. It makes perfect sense that side sleepers are interested in finding the best mattress for side sleepers.
What might come as a surprise however, is the fact that side sleepers need different things from mattresses than people who sleep on their backs. Sleep posture can have a significant impact on your overall health as well as the quality of the sleep you get. The right mattress ensures you get a full night's sleep as well as a comfortable night's sleep.
Best Mattress for Back Pain
Back pain is a daily fact of life for millions of Americans each year. "In the United States, the lifetime prevalence of back pain is approximately 80%, with a one-year prevalence rate of 15% to 20%, the highest prevalence is in the 45 to 64 age group," reports the Cleveland Clinic. For those who suffer from short or long-term back pain, the immediate desire is relief or the ability to manage the pain, which is at the very least, uncomfortable and can be significantly negatively impact one's quality of life.
Back Pain Causes
Before seeking out treatment options, it's a good idea to explore many of the potential sources of back pain among the general population—especially considering that such a large chunk of the population is susceptible to it. Back pain can be attributed to any number of different reasons, which include many of the following:
- Employment related injuries
- Repetitive motions
- Poor posture
- Sleeping on a poor mattress
- Improper lifting practices
- Muscle strain
- Falls
- Sports injuries
- Auto accidents
- Medical conditions
The Benefits of Sleeping on a Natural Latex Mattress
Natural Latex is the Eco-Friendly Solution
As more and more consumers integrate the eco-conscious decision making process into their buying habits, one of the areas of the home that is being taken into account is the bedroom. And rightly so – we spend a full one-third of our lives in our bedrooms. Asleep. On our beds. Those savvy consumers who have already jumped aboard the green movement and are sleeping on a natural mattress can attest to the many great benefits of sleeping on the likes of natural latex. Not only is an all-natural latex mattress not made of petrochemicals and thus healthier, but the cost of a latex mattress made from botanical latex foam is much cheaper than a traditional bed in the long run.
Investing in Latex
In fact, the purchase of a natural latex foam mattress is a very wise investment in terms of durability and longevity. Generally a 100% natural latex mattress will run right around $2,000 (depending upon the size); any less and you probably aren't getting natural latex, but instead a hybrid or blend or 100% synthetic. More expensive than that you are probably paying a premium for brand equity, or overhead for the fancy showroom floor. But let's take a look at the true cost of a natural latex bed based upon, for example, the warranty of the mattress and the price tag. We'll take the round figure of $2,000 that can be had for buying a high quality organic latex mattress online instead of at a physical establishment, since that is where you'll end up getting the most for your money. With the round figure of $2,000 and a mattress warranty of 25 years (that's the high end, most average in the 20-year time frame), the cost per night for sleeping on premium natural latex foam is only about .22 per night! Compare that to a traditional innerspring mattress, for example, that you replace every 5-7 years on average, and you come up with some pretty health savings on top of the health benefits.

Core series
The core series[1][2] of the Pokémon games or core games[3], commonly referred to as the main series or mainline games by fans, is the game series that is always released on a Nintendo handheld system and developed by Game Freak, which follow the standard model of a player's journey through a specific region to catch and raise Pokémon, battle Trainers, and earn recognition (usually by collecting Badges from Gym Leaders) until they are acknowledged as the strongest Trainer.
Counting each game individually, there are currently 24 games in the series internationally, 25 in Japan, and 15 in South Korea. Counting paired individual games as a single release, there are currently 14 games in the series internationally, 15 in Japan, and 8 in South Korea.
Prior to Generation VI, it was standard for the Western releases of the core series games to include the label Version in their title, although this was seldom used by the Japanese releases. In Japanese and Korean, the series is called the Pocket Monsters Series (Japanese: ポケットモンスターシリーズ[4], Korean: 포켓몬스터 시리즈[5]), as core series games all contain the full name Pocket Monsters (Japanese: ポケットモンスター, Korean: 포켓몬스터) in their title, whereas side series and spin-off games use the abbreviation Pokémon (Japanese: ポケモン, Korean: 포켓몬) in the title instead. However, the Japanese releases of the Pokémon Stadium series use Pocket Monsters in English subtitles, despite the titles using Pokémon in kana.
Content model
While there are no strict rules that make a game a core series game, and previously assumed rules are continuously broken, the games generally have a similar plot and mechanics.
The player begins the game in a small town or city of a given region, having no Pokémon of their own. Through a course of events, the player will receive a starter Pokémon from the region's Pokémon Professor; the starter Pokémon is always a choice of three, a Grass, Fire, or Water type, and the character who will become the player's rival will choose (or already have) the Pokémon whose type is super effective against that of the player's choice. (The exceptions to this are Pokémon Yellow, in which the player starts with Pikachu and the rival starts with Eevee, and Pokémon Black and White, in which the player has two rivals, who each choose one of the starter Pokémon not picked by the player.)
After this point, the player begins to journey across the entire region (each with their own cities and towns, themselves connected by routes), capturing any wild Pokémon he or she chooses to, and using a party he or she assembles to take on the eight Gym Leaders of the region. Alongside encounters with both other Trainers and repeated interactions with their rival, the player must also stop the plans of a villainous team, which often involve the manipulation of Legendary Pokémon.
After all eight Gym Leaders have been defeated, the player can enter the Pokémon League, where the Elite Four and Champion await challengers. The Champion of the region is often introduced prior to the player's Pokémon League challenge, and may aid the player as he or she continues his or her adventure.
Though the game can be considered over as soon as the player has defeated the Champion, there is still post-game content. Often there is a post-game plotline and locations and facilities that could not be previously accessed. Since Pokémon Crystal, there is usually at least one facility specifically dedicated to battling. The overarching goal is the completion of the Pokédex; after this has been done, the player will receive a diploma for completing the regional Pokédex and, starting in Generation III, another for completing the National Pokédex. Another task was added in Generation III in order to fully complete the game: obtaining all Trainer Card stars.
Another element that characterizes a core series game is that the geography of regions includes at least one water route, a mountain, several caves, a forest, as well as a final route leading up to the Pokémon League called Victory Road.
Release model
While releases continue to break patterns, the release of core series games tends to follow a pattern.
When a generation of Pokémon games begins, a pair of games is always released. These paired versions feature virtually the same storyline as each other, but the available Pokémon differ, and some other elements are usually slightly different. This encourages trading, as it is required in order to complete the Pokédex.
During the first four generations, a solitary follow-up game was later released that takes place in the same region. It typically lacks certain Pokémon that were available in one or both of the original paired versions; thus, a player of a follow-up must link together with the original pair to complete the Pokédex as well. Generation V broke with tradition by releasing a second pair of games as a sequel to the primary paired versions, while Generation VI was the first to entirely forego any follow-up to the original pair.
Sometimes, a secondary set of paired versions that are remakes of earlier titles may also be released.
Most generations introduce Pokémon that evolve into or from previously released Pokémon. Legendary Pokémon with myths specific to the region are almost always included, and frequently appear in duos and trios.
In all generations, there are some Pokémon that cannot be encountered until after the player enters the Hall of Fame. These may be legendary Pokémon, such as Mewtwo, or simply Pokémon that are not part of the game's regional Pokédex.
Before the release of a new generation, new Pokémon are often used to promote the new games by including them in the anime or in spin-off games.
Box art
The box art for each game features one Pokémon which was introduced in that generation (or, in the case of remakes, the generation of the original games). This Pokémon is referred to by fans as a game mascot, and with the exception of Generation I and its remakes, it is always the Legendary Pokémon available in that game at the climax of the storyline.
In terms of the artwork itself, the international Pokémon Red and Blue and all releases of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, Pokémon Black and White, and Pokémon X and Y use their game mascot's original Ken Sugimori artwork for their box art, whereas all other core series games use specially made artwork.
List of core series games
In South Korea, only Pokémon Gold and Silver were released prior to the foundation of Nintendo of Korea and Pokémon Korea in 2006. The first core series game release after this was Pokémon Diamond and Pearl in 2008.

- Main article: History of the Pokémon world
Several pieces of content in the core series Pokémon games depend on the games having a timeline, but a complete timeline cannot be drawn from the games themselves. In May 2014, Game Freak employee Toshinobu Matsumiya posted a timeline of the core series Pokémon games on Twitter;[6] the tweet, however, has since been deleted.
The plot of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire and Pokémon Red and Green are contemporaneous. They are then followed by the equally contemporaneous plot of Pokémon Gold and Silver and Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, which are set three years later. Pokémon Black and White are set an unspecified amount of time after those games. Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 are set two years after those games, and are contemporaneous with Pokémon X and Y. Pokémon Sun and Moon take place two years after the events of Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 and at least 10 years after the events of Pokémon Emerald.
It is unknown if the aforementioned timeline also applies to all solitary versions and remakes. Furthermore, Zinnia suggests that there are alternate universes.
Unused trademarks
Nintendo, Creatures, and Game Freak have trademarked several titles in the Japan Patent Office which have not currently been used but which fit the naming scheme of the core series games. The following information comes from the Japan Platform for Patent Information (Japanese, English):
- Pocket Monsters: Topaz (Japanese: ポケットモンスタートパーズ) [application number 2002-063587, registration number 4677891]
- Pocket Monsters: Tourmaline (Japanese: ポケットモンスタートルマリン) [application number 2002-063588, registration number 4684698]
- Pocket Monsters: Moonstone (Japanese: ポケットモンスタームーンストーン) [application number 2002-063590, registration number 4684699]
- Pocket Monsters: Brown (Japanese: ポケットモンスター茶) [application number 2008-093270, registration number 5222905]
- Pocket Monsters: Grey (Japanese: ポケットモンスター灰) [application number 2008-093272, registration number 5222907]
- Pocket Monsters: Vermilion (Japanese: ポケットモンスター朱) [application number 2008-093273, registration number 5222908]
- Pocket Monsters: Purple (Japanese: ポケットモンスター紫) [application number 2008-093274, registration number 5222909]
- Pocket Monsters: Crimson (Japanese: ポケットモンスター紅) [application number 2008-093275, registration number 5222910]
- Pocket Monsters: Scarlet (Japanese: ポケットモンスター緋) [application number 2008-093276, registration number 5222911]
- Delta Emerald[7] (Japanese: デルタエメラルド) [application number 2014-035118, registration number 5701924]
Topaz, tourmaline, moonstone, and emerald (by virtue of Delta Emerald) are all names of minerals, while the rest are names of colors. Additionally, vermilion, crimson, and scarlet are all shades of red.
Contrary to what is sometimes reported, the name WaterBlue was not trademarked. According to the Japan Platform for Patent Information, ウォーターブルー and WATER BLUE (application number 2010-060625, registration number 5386853) are trademarks of Meiji Seika, a Japanese pharmaceutical company. However, Game Freak's Junichi Masuda did mention "WaterBlue" in 2004 on a blog post explaining the company's choice of "FireRed" and "LeafGreen" as both Japanese and international titles for the remakes of Red and Green.[8][9]
In addition to the core series games, there are many side series games that allow players to transfer their Pokémon to and from the core series.

- Pokémon Stadium 2: Allows players to transfer their Pokémon from the Generation I and II games to battle in 3D.
- Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire: Allows players to store their Pokémon from the Generation III games.
- Pokémon Channel: Allows players to receive a gift Jirachi in the Generation III games.

- Poké Transporter: Allows players to transfer their Pokémon from the Generation V games to Pokémon Bank.
- Pokémon Bank: Allows players to store their Pokémon from Generation VI and VII games.
The spin-off Pokémon Ranger series also allows players to receive a special Manaphy Egg in the Generation IV games.

And The Dog Made Three PT4
Fantastic, Bestiality, Incest
Author's infos
Gender: male Age: N/A Location: N/A
Posted Mon 12th of July 2010
Chapter 4
Adolph, the big German Shepherd, had a dynamic hard-on. He was lying on his belly and his prick was so hard that it jerked spasmodically up and down. His long, red tongue was lolling out, drooling and his black nose flared as he inhaled Jennifer's succulence. The dumb brute was confused. His instincts told him that sex was taking place, yet he could plainly see that Jennifer's fuck-hole was being neglected.
He only knew that his balls were full and his cock was hard as a stone and that he was desperate to sink that huge prick into something hot and wet.
He whined -- and waited.
* * *
Licking her lips, Jennifer leaned forward. Her brother's prick was swaying up and down, neither hard nor soft but sticking straight out from his loins. She sucked his cock-head into her mouth again, wanting just another taste before she enjoyed the other half of this oral sex.
Panting, Joe sank down onto his knees.
Holding his prick in her mouth, Jennifer lowered her head as he descended. As her head went down, naturally, her ass rose higher.
Joe was kneeling before her now and Jennifer was on her hands and knees, her blonde head jammed into his groin and her trim little ass hiked up. Her plump tits dangled like ripe fruit under her, ready to be plucked. As she mouthed her brother's cock, she purred and squirmed, wriggling her ass about.
Without realizing it, Jennifer had assumed a position very familiar to her doggy.
She was, in fact, in the doggy-fucking posture -- and Adolph became less confused. Her vacant cunt was streaming, spilling juice down her thighs and pouring a flood of pussy perfume over the dog's nostrils.
Adolph inhaled deeply. His whole shaggy body trembled spasmodically and the great lever of his cock pried his haunches up from the ground. Head lowered and ass hiked up, the big dog was in the same position that Jennifer was in.
Neither Jennifer nor her brother was aware of the dog's interest. Jennifer was happily suckling away and Joe's cock was beginning to stir and swell again, inside her mouth, thrilling the naughty blonde teenager. She wanted to get her pussy sucked off now, yet she was reluctant to give up that succulent mouthful of cock-meat.
She drew her lips away and kissed his balls. "Wanna cum again, Joey?"
He grunted and moved his loins, rubbing his balls against her moist mouth and sliding his prick up the incline of her freckled cheek.
"If I suck you off again, promise that you'll tongue-fuck me, afterward s?" she panted.
"Yeah -- Yeah!"
Jennifer purred. She ran her tongue over his ballooning balls, then slurped juicily on up his towering cock-shaft. She lapped up and down, tracing along the pulsing ventral vein, saliva running down his prick. She fluttered her tongue against the sensitive spot where his cock-head wedged out from his prick, causing that meaty slab to flare and throb and glow an angry red.
"I love sucking you," she admitted in a sultry, husky tone. "We can suck each other off a lot, from now on, Joey, we can suck each other silly!"
He moaned, humping and sliding his prick through her parted lips. She licked up and down his cock, her tongue criss-crossing on the underside of the fat tube and then flashing against the bottom of his knob. She bathed his cock with spittle, then licked it up again. Her saliva tasted lovely, spiced by the flavor of his cock-meat. She fitted her pursed lips against the base of his heavily veined cock-shaft and began to run them up and down, as if his prick were a meaty flute on which she was playing a tantalizing tune.
Jennifer buried her lovely face in his groin, sniffing and licking, rubbing against his cock adoringly. Then she took his cock-knob into her mouth and nursed on it. Her blonde head began to rise and fall in the classic blow-job action, lips pulling up and down his stalk.
Joe frigged into her face, feeding her prick as her head ducked down. His cock-head pumped into her throat and she gulped, but held it. Her chin was brushing against his balls and her little up-turned nose was nestled in his wiry pubic thicket.
"Jeez, Sis, you're swallowing the fucker!" Joe croaked, staring down, amazed to see that all of his cock was buried in her magic mouth.
She pulled up slowly, suckling with relish on every inch of his cock-shaft and then, lips collaring him just below his knob, she mouthed that flaring hunk of hot prick rapturously. Her lips nursed, and her tongue fluttered against the underside, then she twisted her head and wound her oval maw around on the pivot of his prick.
She bobbed down toward his balls again, gorging herself on his cock. She sucked, blew, then sucked again as her lips pulled up and pushed down.
Joe was fucking into her face in counterpoint, shoving his cock in as his sister bobbed down and withdrawing as her lips dragged and slurped back up to his smoking-hot crown.
A trickle of slime oozed onto her tongue, like gorgeous glue bonding them together, promising the cock-hungry girl another bellyful of cum. She began to move her head up and down faster now, eager to drink his cum-juice and also to get her pussy tongued.
But unknown to Jennifer, Adolph was sneaking up behind her ass, head first, following the aroma of her steaming pussy, his fat red tongue lolling out and slobbering hungrily. His prick was so stiff that it was humming like a vibrator, his hard-on seeming to begin in his asshole.
Thrusting his muzzle out, the big dog sniffed at Jennifer's wriggling ass. His lapper slurped up the backs of her kneeling thighs and ran into the crack of her ass, dipping into her tangy shit-hole.
"Oh!" she exclaimed, in surprise, her big blue eyes opening wide.
She pulled her mouth off Joe's prick and turned to look over her shoulder.
Joe groaned, finding his thundering cock neglected. His eyes had been closed. He opened them now and gazed down, seeing his rampant prick standing up alongside his sister's face, her frothy saliva steaming as it evaporated from the hot prick.
Why had she turned away? he wondered, panicking, thinking that she had decided not to finish the job. Then he looked down at her up-thrust ass -- and gasped.
Jennifer blinked, then grinned, when she realized that it was the German Shepherd's nimble tongue that was titillating her tight little asshole. A day -- even an hour -- ago, Jennifer might have been shocked and pulled away from the dumb brute's questing lapper, admonishing him. But following Tracy's revelations concerning canine tongues, the girl's attitude had changed.
She squirmed back against his snout as his lapper shot right up her asshole. The doggy rimmed merrily away, slobbering into her tiny brown ring. Then his head dipped down and his tongue slapped at her cunt.
"Oooooh!" she squealed, wriggling and rubbing her foaming cunt onto his muzzle.
"Sis -- holy shit -- the fucking dog is licking your cunt!" Joe cried, scandalized.
"Ummmm, I know." She giggled. Joe gaped in amazement. His naughty sister wanted the dog to tongue her pussy! It was disgusting, he thought. But, if so, why was his cock pounding and throbbing even more in response to that dark knowledge? Maybe it wasn't so disgusting, after all. Maybe it was just fucking delightful. Joe began to grin like a fiend.
Jennifer glanced up at her brother with an impish look and, seeing by his expression that he was not about to discourage the doggy, she looked back over her ass.
Adolph was whipping his hot tongue into her cunt-gash enthusiastically. Tracy hadn't lied about that, she thought. A dog's eager tongue was a real treat for a cunt!
"Yeah, boy, lap my pussy," she moaned. "Slap that hot tongue right up my fuck-hole."
Adolph whimpered, burrowing in as if he wanted to bury his muzzle up her cunt. His lapper slurped at her unpeeled cunt-lips, washed her pussy, bathed her frenzied clit and shoved on into her smoldering cunt-hole. Her cunt pulled on his tongue just as if it were a mouth being French kissed, dragging him deeper. Pussy-nectar poured out of her cunt and the dog lapped it up, spraying slobber into her cunt as he lapped her perfumed pussy-cream out.
Jennifer reached behind her ass and dipped her hand into her cunt, spreading her cunt-lips open wider so that Adolph could slap his tongue right up into the intricate inner folds. His tongue slurped and her cunt squished. Pearly ribbons of spunk ran down his hairy muzzle, dripping in gooey shards from his jowls.
"Sis, suck my cock!" Joe pleaded.
She turned back to her brother and pounced on his prick again, sucking hungrily. She held her brother's balls in one hand and spread her pussy open with the other as she wriggled blissfully between boy and dog, driven wild by the double sensation of a mouthful of cock-meat and a cuntful of doggy tongue. Her brother bucked into her face and her dog slurped into her cunt-hole.
Adolph's fat tongue splashed into her drenched cunt-gash with frantic enthusiasm, lathering her with slobber. He slurped up through her gaping cunt and on into the crack of her ass, tonguing her with long, rippling strokes. As the flow from her cunt got hotter and creamier and more fragrant, the dog yelped and growled and whined. His head ground around, twisting and turning like a terrier shaking a rat.
Jennifer jerked back against the dog's snout, then rammed her head down to the root of her brother's prick, relishing both, wanting to cream the dog's tongue and swallow Joe's jism-juice at the same magic moment.
Her cunt was starting to swirl with foaming cum and her hot mouth was salivating as if it, too, were about to cream. She moaned, squirming sinuously, her trim little ass churning and her blonde head bobbing up and down as if she were ducking for apples in her brother's groin. As the German Shepherd shoveled his lapper into her fuck-hole, stuffing her with hot tongue meat, she fed Joe's delicious prick into her face balls-deep, whimpering softly.
Joe's pisshole was spilling out pre-cum onto her tingling tastebuds but, since he had already shot one enormous wad into her mouth, he wasn't quite ready to cum again, she realized. She struggled to hold back her own creaming, wanting to drink her brother's fuck-juice at the same time that her cunt juiced on the Shepherd's lapper.
She forced her ass and hips to jerk more slowly while her head rose and fell faster in an effort to milk off Joe before she soared to the peak.
But there was another prick involved -- a big, hairy prick that needed to be emptied more than Joe's.
Adolph slapped his tongue into her cunt, spraying juice out. Then he raised his head, whining, his cock like an armed rocket under his belly.
Jennifer wailed, reaching behind her ass and groping for the dog's collar so that she could haul his head back into her cunt. Devoid of a tongue, her pussy was fluttering desperately.
But then Adolph hunkered down, braced his hindquarters, and sprang up, mounting Jennifer's ass.
His forelegs wrapped tightly around her hips and he clung to her haunches, panting over her back. He humped, flanks rippling, stabbing his smoking hot cock out into the girl's soaking steaming cunt.
Jennifer gasped on her brother's prick.
"Jesus, he's trying to fuck you!" Joe wailed.
Then naughty Jennifer smiled.
Wouldn't that be something to tell Tracy!

Scam Warning – Online Dating Can Pose Threats Three major dating sites—Match.com, eHarmony.com, and Spark Networks—recently announced they will start screening for sexual predators, identity thieves, and scammers to try to increase safety for users. While millions of people use dating sites to meet people, and many forge successful relationships, criminals and scammers also use these sites to meet potential victims.
A common scheme for these scammers is to build online relationships and eventually try to convince you to send money in the name of love. Never wire money to cover travel, medical emergencies, hotel bills, hospital bills for a child or other relative, visas or other official documents, or losses from a temporary financial setback. You may lose your heart on a dating site but you don't have to lose your shirt as well. 3 Rivers Upcoming Events Calendar On 3rivers.net Do you have a local event you would like to include in the interactive 3 Rivers Upcoming Events calendar on 3rivers.net?

Here is a Bear Totem-Story by Victor's childhood friend, John Folting.
We hope it will stir a memory in you and that you'll post your own story. Thanks! Linda
By John Folting:
I had an experience like Jan in the book Lion Eyes as you described.
My family was at Yosemite when I was about 5 or so and like any other red blooded American boy I decided to explore on my own. Well, needless to say I got lost in the woods. For a couple of hours, it seemed forever, I walked and walked and of course got deeper in trouble.
I really thought I was going to get hurt or die but Providence intervened in a very strange way.
I was just standing there and this mother bear came up to me with her two cubs. I guess she was maternal as I do not know if you know this, adult animals rarely hurt the young of another.
She just nudged me and for some reason I started to follow her. When I was tired I rode her back. She took me to a stream and across the stream was a house. I patted her and walked away towards the house where my father was. He just happened to be there looking for me.
He never believed my story but it was OK because from that time I always loved animals. I still do.
I'll buy the book and read it and let you know. Nothing happened to me like your heroine, but it at least gave me a life long respect for animals.

A risk factor is something that increases your likelihood of getting a disease or condition.
It is possible to develop insomnia with or without the risk factors listed below. However, the more risk factors you have, the greater your likelihood of developing insomnia. If you have a number of risk factors, ask your doctor what you can do to reduce your risk.
Insomnia is often the result of a behavior or a symptom of an underlying mental or physical problem. These behaviors and conditions increase your risk of having insomnia. They include:
People over the age of 60-65 are more likely to have insomnia than younger people. Older people may be less likely to sleep soundly because of bodily changes related to aging and because they may have medical conditions or take medications that disturb sleep.
Chronic diseases and associated pain may increase risk of insomnia. Some conditions include:
Certain medications can increase risk of sleeping problems as a side effect. These may include:
Insomnia occurs more often in women than in men. Pregnancy and hormonal shifts can disturb sleep. Other hormonal changes, such as premenstrual syndrome (PMS) or menopause, can also can affect sleep.
Stress is considered by most sleep experts to be the number one cause of short-term sleeping difficulties. Common triggers include school- or job-related pressures, a family or marriage problem, or a serious illness or death in the family. Insomnia is also a common symptom of anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, and depression.
Habits and activities that you do during the day or night can interfere with getting a good night's sleep. These include:
Night shift work forces you to try to sleep when activities around you and your own biological rhythms signal you to be awake. Shift workers are more likely than are employees with regular, daytime hours to fall asleep on the job because of poor sleep quality.
Jet lag is the inability to sleep as a result of crossing many time zones in a short period of time. This can disturb your biological rhythms and deprive you of good sleep until your body can adjust to the new time zone.
A distracting sleep environment, such as a room that's too hot or cold, too noisy, or too brightly lit, can be a barrier to sound sleep. Interruptions from children or other family members can also disrupt sleep. Other influences may be the comfort and size of your bed and the habits of your sleep partner.

If you need any evidence that the United States needs to rethink its healthcare model, look no further than the typical hospital.
Within each building, says Clayton Christensen, the Harvard Business School professor who defined the concept of disruptive innovation, you tend to find three competing business models, each with its own profit model. There's the fee-for-service R&D and diagnostics "solution shop," the fee-for-outcome process businesses that conduct medical procedures, and the fee-for-membership facilitated networks that provide long-term care.
"Typical hospitals are not complicated," Christensen said at the recent Better Health Boston forum. "They are impossible."
It's no surprise, then, that healthcare needs disruptive innovation. What remains to be seen, though, is how soon that innovation will arrive and what kind of impact it will ultimately have.
Today's Hospitals Too Centralized for Disruptive Innovation
American healthcare's primary problems can be boiled down to two key issues, Christensen said at the event, sponsored by healthcare IT vendor McKesson and consultancy Innosight. Innovation has been sustaining as opposed to disruptive, he says, while the process remains largely centralized. Hospitals offer the value of solving any problem for any patient, he says, but the overhead of that complexity leads to tremendous costs. (The same is true of higher education.)
On top of that, most care is provided using what Christensen calls a modular, open architecture. This works for Samsung in its efforts to take down Apple, as it's a model that emphasizes speed, responsiveness and customization, but it doesn't work in healthcare. The industry needs a closed, interdependent, decentralized and integrated system, he says, one in which facilities focus on doing a particular job very well.
If that's the case, then the disruption may already be happening. Retailers, building on the success of their rewards programs and advertising campaigns, are starting to use that influence to try to catalyze behavior change. Walgreens, for example, can use its product recommendation technology for healthcare recommendations and reminders, says Brian DeMay, CIO for enterprise architecture at Walgreens, who spoke at the recent Oracle Industry Connect event.
Traditionalists may scoff at the idea -- but Walgreens sees 6 million patients a day, DeMay says, and the retailer uses data from wearable tech such as the FitBit to offer coupons to customers who achieve fitness goals. That data, combined with additional records, lets Walgreens produce a Wellness Index to help fill gaps in the longitudinal medical record, which is based less on physician-patient encounters and more on a patient's overall healthcare experience and wellness needs.
'Morally Wrong' to Focus Healthcare on Anyone Other Than Patients
That approach to the patient experience represents another disruptive innovation. Organizing healthcare around doctors and insurers as opposed to patients is both morally wrong and a driver of out-of-control costs, says Alexander Packard, chief operating officer at Cambridge, Mass.-based Iora Health.
For that reason, Iora has started from scratch to better meet patient needs. It's a high-service model, Packard says, one that pairs patients with health coaches skilled in "motivational interviewing" and other techniques that let the provider develop a care plan based around life goals, not just calling the doctor when youre in pain. After all, once that happens, it's typically too late for low-cost preventive care.
To that end, Iora assigns its patients a "Worry Score." This algorithmic system combines payer, clinical, hospital and patient-generated data to tell a practice's physicians which patients require their attention, Packard says. The system will also generate tasks based on that score, ranging from an automatic reminder to schedule an appointment to a call to action for a physician to visit a patient admitted to the hospital overnight.
"We think the killer app is the relationship," Packard says.
Must Remove Constraints From EHR, Clinical Systems
This relationship extends beyond individual patients and their physicians. Coordinated care among healthcare entities is a main tenet of healthcare reform's accountable care organization (ACO) model -- but even at a more basic level, collaboration improves research, care guidelines and decision support, all of which contribute to better care quality.
Here, as is so often the case in healthcare, technology needs to catch up. Speaking at Medical Informatics World, Dr. Jacob Reider, acting principal deputy national coordinator of healthcare IT, said the document-centric electronic health record (EHR) hinders providers as well as developers.
Paper records literally had no constraints, but trying to anticipate user needs in EHR systems has added constraints that "destroy usability of the products and destroy the workflow of clinicians," Reider says. Providers struggle, meanwhile, because records stem from single appointments (for the sake of reimbursement) as opposed to a series of observations about a patient's overall health and wellness.
In this case, the disruption, still not yet wholly achieved, involves a shift from official, government-defined meaningful use of EHR technology to more literal, sustainable "meaningful use," Reider says. This requires equal parts interoperability, safety, usability and health data infrastructure.
Then and only then will healthcare be able to advance as Christensen says it can -- from intuitive medicine (based on one symptom that many diseases share) to empirical medicine (based on patterns that apply to a general population of patients) to precise personalized medicine.
Along the way, nurses, clinicians and retail pharmacists will be empowered to do "increasingly sophisticated things" that turn those expensive healthcare encounters into affordable ones. "This is the mechanism by which we solve that problem," Christensen says.
