Bulls and Fire
I was cleaning out my hard drive last night (a task that rates right up there with carrying in groceries from my car and putting away laundry), and happened upon the folder of photos from our big burn last spring. I'd forgotten about these shots of the bulls in one of the pastures we burned.
I'd forgotten how much they made me chuckle.
Bulls don't mind so much when we burn.
They just stand around, looking unconcerned. "No big deal," they say.
Meanwhile, the cows in the other pasture are hightailing it out of there with their calves by their side.
Cows are smart.
The bulls just lumber along. "I ain't scared of no stinkin' fire. I could take that fire in a dark alley with one hoof tied behind my back if I had to."
Please notice the bulls in the background, casually eating their hay supper.
Hay, by the way, that the bulls, for no other reason but they wanted to prove they could, have pushed and rolled from the middle of the pasture all the way to—and almost through—the fenceline.
I've never really understood this practice. Wouldn't it just be easier if they just stood and ate the hay where we lay it down? Why must they turn everything into some kind of challenge or test of strength and ability?
I suppose that would be the same reason my boys have to step over and on furniture to get across the room. Why they have to leap through the windows of my car rather than just open the door and climb in normally. Why they can't simply ride and enjoy their bikes without taking them apart with wrenches.
I'll never, ever understand.
Marlboro Man and the kids keep lighting. The wind is in their favor, and they have to get it done.
And they know that eventually—usually, at the last minute—the bulls will come to their senses and get out of there just in time.
They always get out of there just in time. And not a moment before. They don't want anyone to think they're scared.
And I'd say this is the end of their supper.
Yep, I'd say their supper's toast.
And as the mother of two bulls myself, I couldn't help but get a little satisfaction out of this.
"If you'd kept your hay where it belonged, you wouldn't have gotten yourselves into this mess, and you would have enjoyed your entire supper!"
Also, one of my perennial favorites:
"Actions have consequences!"
Unfortunately, boys and bulls share the same ability to listen. And learn.
Happy to Be Perpetuating Gender Stereotypes,
Pioneer Woman

Makes me want to yell – – – "Run Bulls, Run"!
Great photos as always.
michelle On Sunday, October 4 at 7:45 am
I had to laugh at how your boys exit the car through the windows….mine hasn't thought of that yet – or at least he just hasn't executed it while I was looking. Thanks for that!
TeiLea On Sunday, October 4 at 7:45 am
Must be a male issue….
Daddy Scratches On Sunday, October 4 at 7:47 am
There's a flame-broiled-bull joke in there somewhere, but I was up all night with a sick kid, so I can't put the finishing touches on it.
You have some very macho bulls.
Laura from PA On Sunday, October 4 at 7:47 am
Boybrain. Pff.
MrArboc On Sunday, October 4 at 7:48 am
So true!
Jennie On Sunday, October 4 at 7:50 am
My boys push the furniture around my living room. That drives me crazy. One of these days I'll set it all on fire. That'll show 'em. Love the pictures of the fire, they're great.
Judi On Sunday, October 4 at 7:51 am
It's a guy thing………….
Bridget On Sunday, October 4 at 7:51 am
Love it!
I think Jane Lynch is great, too. Just watched The Fugitive for the millionth time. I always forget that she has a role in that movie. Such a nice surprise!
Sarah B. On Sunday, October 4 at 7:54 am
This made me smile. Thank you! My two year old son is in a "Watch me, mama! " stage where he likes to show off his awesome jumps and body contortions. With another darling boy on the way, I've decided to embrace their ways instead of question it. I will never understand, either!
hana On Sunday, October 4 at 7:56 am
Here in the City of Angels, I'm up early to prep something for my church's version of your "linger longer" or "that wasn't my stomach you heard during the sermon…please pass me a doughnut" time. Thanks for the post. Shows how important food & fighting are to the males, doesn't it?
corrie On Sunday, October 4 at 7:59 am
Sterotypes are because there's soooo much truth to them that they persist! Good call, PW!
Alison @ cluck and tweet On Sunday, October 4 at 7:59 am
I remember these pictures well. They still make me nervous!
jill On Sunday, October 4 at 8:00 am
great pictures Ree! great story!
Munchiedog On Sunday, October 4 at 8:02 am
Love Jane Lynch in Glee and first noticed her in Best of Show. Funny lady. Delightful description of bulls and boys!
Sharon Sommerville On Sunday, October 4 at 8:03 am
Boys jumping across the furniture……. that's my boys right there. They go from one end of the house to the other, without touching the floor. Only trouble is, they are teaching their sisters bad habits
reneekoch On Sunday, October 4 at 8:04 am
Great pictures!
Yup, bulls – men – boys – always got a few brain cells focused on nothing else but their stomaches. lol
Julie On Sunday, October 4 at 8:07 am
"Actions have consequences", I say that too…too many times it seems.
They're all a bit bull headed (sorry, I couldn't resist).
Julie in Ok
Mary On Sunday, October 4 at 8:07 am
Oh boys…..sometimes I wonder what they would be without the civilizing influence of girls…
Sara On Sunday, October 4 at 8:12 am
All boys are nuts!!! How much hay do y'all have to put up each year? I can imagine that your summers are pretty much taken up with baling hay. And the dumb bulls just waste one. Agh!
Jenn On Sunday, October 4 at 8:14 am
yep. that pretty much sums it all up, now doesn't it?
Theresa in Alberta On Sunday, October 4 at 8:18 am
Boys are boys and males are males no matter what SPECIES they are Thanks for the laugh this morning. The colors in those flames are awesome BTW.
Kelley On Sunday, October 4 at 8:19 am
Sometimes husbands are in that mix too….
cecedon On Sunday, October 4 at 8:21 am
great pictures and totally hilarious commentary! Bulls, too funny.

Beamie Jeanie On Sunday, October 4 at 8:23 am
Hmmm, my brothers were taught by my mom not to even put their feet on a piece of furniture let alone run, climb, etc. on it. And they obeyed. She had girls first and it only took a "look" by her or Daddy to bring us in line. However, to get my brothers to behave in church, Mom sat with a belt in her lap every Sunday. LOL
My boys were very sick when they were children, defying death several times. So, they didn't have the energy to go bounding through the house like you describe. They took their aggressions out on their hot wheels and every other kind of miniature vehicle, painting them army colors and playing war.
SierraSnowSoaps On Sunday, October 4 at 8:25 am
for sure a male thing.

That's funny. Stupid animals.

Mindee@ourfrontdoor On Sunday, October 4 at 8:34 am
Just curious – are the steers any smarter? Or maybe it's better not to think along those lines.
Tammy On Sunday, October 4 at 8:44 am
Males and females – just so different no matter what species. And, I have 4 boys of various ages, and they have all climbed through my car window rather than open the door. I read a book about raising sons, according to the author of the book – the reason boys do things like this? Because it's there, and they can.
Courtney On Sunday, October 4 at 8:44 am
Hence the term "bull headed"…….
jeanette harris On Sunday, October 4 at 8:49 am
Yeah, All of the above, but ain't they purty?
Lana On Sunday, October 4 at 8:51 am
you know, I never had that problem. My bulls were all timid little creatures. They made up for it later tho!

'Stubborn-as-a-bull'…now I see…now I understand. The 'Superman' complex…it's just a part of the male species…BECAUSE, it's all about them! No matter what, when, or where…it's all about them, baby.
Gee On Sunday, October 4 at 8:54 am
HA! Brave of you! Good thing the bulls aren't in charge of the calves!
Wonderful fire photos!
MollyCookie On Sunday, October 4 at 8:55 am
That is very amusing. I didn't know bulls were that stubborn and show-offish. Just like my husband!
tina sapp On Sunday, October 4 at 8:55 am
All boys like BBQ… even bulls
Brooke On Sunday, October 4 at 8:59 am
I love these pictures.
Bullheaded bulls. Is that where that word comes from? Hmmm…
In Lithuania, people just tie the animals to the ground or chain their front legs together. It's pretty terrible, but I guess it solves the problem of the moving hay. Or really, moving anything. Poor livestock.
Joy Armstrong On Sunday, October 4 at 9:00 am
I just have one sister that I grew up with and so now that I have two boys of my own – WOW! What surprises! They just continually amaze me. At first I was aiming to tame, now I am just hanging on for the ride!
mel On Sunday, October 4 at 9:01 am
oh, those pics remind me of going out with my dad on our farm when i was a kid and burning weeds. my sis or i always had to drive–either the "old farm truck" with no brakes or the john deere while my dad burned. good times.
Doe in Mich. On Sunday, October 4 at 9:03 am
Okay, some man bashing going on.
browniesue On Sunday, October 4 at 9:04 am
Too funny – typical males! For years, my son lept over the back of the couch instead of walking around it to sit down – gotta be a guy thing!
Shannon On Sunday, October 4 at 9:07 am
no boy children around here – but actions still have consequences – use that one quite often myself.
Buckeroomama On Sunday, October 4 at 9:12 am
"Actions have consequences." I love that! I said that to my 4-year old one time in utter seriousness after he did something when I'd told him not to and he just looked at me and innocently asked, "What does consequences mean?"
Theresa Castro On Sunday, October 4 at 9:18 am
I'm sure the term bullheaded was started due to an observation like this one!
mosheep Denise Lamb On Sunday, October 4 at 9:26 am
Do they ever grow up?
Lots of grown men acting like boys ari=ound here.
Especially when they all get together in one place.

My son will go out of his way to step on a piece of furniture to get to the other side of the room.

Gender Stereotypes – snort. Boys and girls have never cooperated with that social experiment to remove them, have they. I'm glad too.
Lisaiz On Sunday, October 4 at 9:53 am
I don't know, I have at least one daughter that resembles that stereotype. If I said it's the same one who wants to come live on your ranch and who will happily sleep in the barn with the horses… would that ruin her chances of ever coming to the ranch? I guess that makes her a bit of a tomboy, huh? Or, like my sister says, "a Thomas-Girl!"
thatgirlblogs On Sunday, October 4 at 9:57 am
those pictures! you make fire look beautiful instead of scary.
Julie Boyles On Sunday, October 4 at 9:58 am
I'll give an "Amen" to that! Boys are something else aren't they, and the difference in them and girls is astounding sometimes. Although these days when my preteen daughter is in "high drama" I think I prefer the roughhousing boys!
Marla On Sunday, October 4 at 10:00 am
As a mother on a son and having 4 grandsons I totally understand where your coming from. 2 of my grandsons ages 2 and 4 live with me and it is just like that at our house. Jumping off furniture and tables and beds. Holloring, wrestling, its never a dull moment here..wouldn't have it any other way.
Karen On Sunday, October 4 at 10:01 am
always something interesting
Deb-IL On Sunday, October 4 at 10:04 am
I have 2 boys (3 including the husband, 4 including the dog) and there's no question, they are a different species. Not sure where that male brain is located (yeah, right) but it works very differently than ours, that's for sure!
Sandy On Sunday, October 4 at 10:07 am
I just sent my house "bull" out for his first lesson in glider flying (soaring). Gotta find ways to keep them busy or they'll do things like push the hay all over the pasture. Oh, by the way, he'll get his first social security check this month — it never gets better, ladies.
coco On Sunday, October 4 at 10:08 am
sigh, my baby girl has been breaking gender-stereotypes since she was 5yo… We actually had to call it "the c word" for a while because just uttering consequences would change my bull-headed BOY of a daughter into a screaming drama queen of a GIRL… I guess she felt it was her job as the ONLY to give us the worst of both genders…

I absolutely love bulls. They make me laugh because they are the epitome of testosterone. All tough and muscle and macho. And very silly!
Anonymous On Sunday, October 4 at 10:16 am
I say those same words myself.Often!
I have never understood why from the day he could hold himself upright with ease my son has had to run, jump, bounce, hop, leap, crawl, wriggle, kick or anything other than simply walk!

Boys and bulls…more similarities than I had thought of! Raising boys was great….loved it….
Carole On Sunday, October 4 at 10:19 am
is this where Hardees gets their flame-broiled burgers? Bulls that didn't run fast enough?

The bull-headedness was funny but what I was really fixated on were the children lighting big fires!
'Round here kids don't even get to light a match and yours are lighting entire fields on fire. Love it.

Melissa On Sunday, October 4 at 10:44 am
While there are many differences between my daughter and son, the ability to listen and learn is not one of them. They both share that stubborn desire to do it their own way no matter what. Even when I say "Actions have consequences."

Boys and Bulls…you're right–there are a lot of similarities between the two.

I'll take the action over the drama anyday. And, I have two very sweet boys who don't behave like animals. Grew up with two sisters. God knew what he was doing when he gave me boys!
Monie On Sunday, October 4 at 11:04 am
I notice they're sticking together…it's probably because they're stubborn, no one bull is willing to look like the 'sissy' and run for it, they're all waiting for one big guy to say, 'we'd better get the heck out-a-here before we're BBQ!' It's a pride issue….
Robyn On Sunday, October 4 at 11:07 am
Oh. The jumping over the banister, landing with shoe wearing feet on th sofa, sprinting across to leap onto the love seat, and finally plop on bottom is normal? Wow. I thought my kids were just being ornery, now I know they are just boys. Dang. Good thing I read your site. You teach me so much about my boys. They are so physical! Do your boys fight? Do they use tree branches as swords? Do they crash their cars and trucks into each other? Is all of this normal boy behavior? I had a girl first. I should have started with the boys…

Janie On Sunday, October 4 at 11:18 am
I have to say, however, that my boy has always thought things through & not done crazy or dangerous things – my daughter – now she's a different story! Jumping & climbing on furniture, as a toddler STOOD on one foot on the riding toys my son so carefully rode (I got rid of all of them), she's a wild child! She just wants to break the stereotype, I'm sure. My hair is starting to turn gray beneath Miss Clairol's help!! I'm always amazed that she's made it to 6 yrs old with no stitches, breaks or missing teeth! I'm sure her guardian angel is ragged though….
Lizzie On Sunday, October 4 at 11:31 am
As a Mom of two young men I agree with the stereotype. Cute post
deme7 On Sunday, October 4 at 11:32 am
I love burning season, as long as the wind doesn't shift and things get out of hand. I love how clean it makes everything within a few days. I love controlled burns. I feel somewhat guilty about that too!
Nancypants On Sunday, October 4 at 11:38 am
My boys frog jump on the furniture too. My most frquent line is, "this is not a jungle gym!". A close second is, "the floor is not your personal trashcan!"
But I love my boys. Last night at a restaurant the silly little hostess replaced the typical, "Enjoy your evening and thanks for coming!" with, "Are you serious, FOUR boys? Oh my gosh, how awful for you!" I looked right at her and said, "Don't say things like that. It's very rude." My husband chuckled, "Strange because I bet SHE likes boys!"
Does the air start smelling like burgers when the fire gets that close to the bulls? :^)
Grace On Sunday, October 4 at 11:41 am
Oh, honey, that's not a stereotype, just reality!
Liz Chambers On Sunday, October 4 at 11:44 am
Haha…they're like, "no fire is gonna tell me where I can and cannot go on this ranch! Oh, I'm just moving over to this side b/c I *want* to, not b/c I have to. It's totally my decision. And I didn't care about the rest of that hay anyway."
Dena On Sunday, October 4 at 11:48 am
Great fire pics. I love setting fires. And as a volunteer fire fighter, I get to help put them out when they get out of control.

what is it with me and bulls? Love'em! And love your pictures too. I so want to photoshop but am scared to death of it.

Snort chuckle guffaw . . . my brothers. The bike thing, the furniture thing, (in our house, jumping from the roof was commonplace). That's boys for ya!

Ya know…this is SO ME!!!
My daughter broke her left arm in August. After she had just broken her right arm in June.
She broke her left arm because she was downstairs at night, in the dark, and fell, when she was supposed to be in her…bed.
My first words to her…???
All of this scolding through her cries of…"I broke my arm!! I broke my OTHER arm!!!!!!!!" Ya, she knew it. sigh.
And their Mothers.

Specific security mechanisms may vary with the type of university facility. Security precautions in place for the various types of facilities at UW-Whitewater are on file in respective campus offices. Administrative and academic building security policies are on file in the Office of the Director of Facilities Planning and Management, University Center policies in the University Center Facilities Management Office, and campus residence policies in the individual Residence Hall offices. In addition, the Residence Hall Living Guide is given to each resident living in the halls. Authorization to unlock any and all campus buildings for times when they are not usually open must be submitted in writing and be on file in advance with the University Police.
In Accordance with 36.11(2), Wisconsin Statutes, UW-Whitewater University Police Services is staffed by peace officers who meet the standards of the Wisconsin law enforcement standards board and have the power to arrest and bring before the proper courts persons violating the law on university property. The University's peace officers cooperate with local police authorities in the exercise of their responsibilities. Students, faculty, staff and visitors are encouraged to promptly report all crimes or suspicious activities that occur on UW-Whitewater property to the University Police. Incidents which are not of an emergency nature may be reported to University Police by calling 262-472-4660. Incidents of an emergency nature may be reported by dialing 911 from a campus phone. (see crime-reporting.) Off-campus crimes should be reported to the appropriate local police authorities. University police staff will make timely warnings regarding significant crime or security threats.
UW-Whitewater provides information to students and employees about campus security procedures and practices, encourages them to be responsible for their own security and the security of others, and informs them about the prevention of crime, through regular programs and literature distribution. University Police staff conduct numerous programs throughout the academic year concerning various crime prevention topics. The following list highlights some of the past programs that have been held:
- "Street Smarts on Campus" deals with personal and property protection.
- "Self-Defense 101" teaches personal safety on campus. Participants learn about physical awareness, situational awareness and personal response to possible violence.
- "Sexual Assault Awareness" involves discussion on this topic, especially the issues surrounding acquaintance sexual assault.
- "Shots Fired" video and discussion aimed at giving individuals the tools they need to survive an active shooter incident.
- "Workplace Violence" is designed for employees and discusses this topic in light of the university's policy on this matter.
- "Alcohol 101" and "Drug 101" introduces the audience to the types of abuse occurring in campus settings and discusses the consequences of choice.
- For more information contact University Police Services between 8:00 am & 4:30 pm at 262-472-4660.
This table of data represents the campus crime statistics reported to the police during the past three years. This data has been collected from university and city police.
Statistics concerning the number of arrests and/or disciplinary referrals for the following crimes occurring on campus: Liquor Laws, Drugs, Weapons. This information is collected from police agencies, campus offices and sexual assault reports. Confidential sexual assault statistics are gathered from campus faculty and staff.
UW-Whitewater encourages cooperation with local police authorities to monitor and record information concerning criminal activity occurring away from the campus, but involving University recognized student organizations.
The possession, use, and sale of alcohol and illegal drugs are regulated at UW-Whitewater in accordance with the Drugfree Schools Act, the Drugfree Workplace Act, applicable provisions of state and federal law, and Chapters UWS 17 & 18, Wisconsin Administrative Code. The University Police enforce violations of underage drinking laws, and other violations of state and federal laws regulating the possession, use and sale of alcohol and illegal drugs. In addition, the Office of Residence Life and/or Dean of Students Office will take disciplinary action when such incidents are reported.
In addition to drug and alcohol abuse programs offered in classrooms and residence halls, the following programs are typically conducted:
- Alcohol Awareness Month
- Safety Campaign related to spring break and other high-risk times.
UW-Whitewater takes a proactive stand against underage alcohol possession or consumption on campus. Various informational programs on this issue are presented throughout the academic year. Institutional and Residence Hall policies have been established to deal with alcohol situations. University Police may issue citations to those persons found in violation of State Law. With each new violation, the fine is increased and the loss of a driver's license may also occur. In addition to law enforcement action or court sanctions, students may be held accountable for violations of university rules.
UW-Whitewater is very concerned about sexual assault and has many programs and policies in place to prevent and deal with sexual assaults (see Sexual Assault).
In compliance with the Campus Sex Crimes Prevention Act effective October 28, 2002, information regarding registered sex offenders may be obtained from the Wisconsin Department of Corrections and at the University Police website.
The University of Wisconsin-Whitewater is fully committed to the safety and security of our students, staff and faculty. The University has an emergency response guide for all students, staff and faculty available at http://emergency.uww.edu/Topics.aspx. The guide provides information on who to contact and what actions to take during emergency events.
In the event Police Services determines an occurrence to be a danger to University members or operations on a larger scale, notification is made to the campus or affected populations through the use of mass email, University website, IP phones and loud speaker systems on campus. All personally identifying information or personal information of victims will be held confidental when providing warnings. This determination is made by evaluation of the information received from citizens, officers and other sources. Content of the notification is determined by the needs of the occurrence. For example, in the event of a tornado, a prerecorded message can be sounded advising individuals to seek shelter. In the event of a chemical spill or active shooter, individuals are advised to shelter in place and stay where they are. Notification of incidents is the responsibility of Police Services. Notification of an event may not be made if it would significantly compromise the assistance of a victim or the containing, responding to or mitigation of an incident. It is always the intent of the University to make emergency notification of appropriate incidents without undue delay.
The Chief/Director of Police Services, Matt Kiederlen (262-472-4660), is ultimately responsible for ensuring the dissemination of emergency information to the University community. Dissemination of emergency information to the larger community is the joint responsibility of Chief Kiederlen and the Director of Marketing and Media Relations, Sara Kuhl (262-472-1194). The dissemination of information to the general public is primarily done through the University website and area media outlets.
The University of Wisconsin-Whitewater Police Services conducts tests of the emergency notification systems. This is done on at least an annual basis. In addition to those tests, a fire drill is conducted within every building on campus on an annual basis. This assists in not only training our students, staff and faculty to the presence of alarms, but it also provides for additional testing of the University's emergency systems.
Missing Student Notification Procedure for On-Campus Housing Students
Reports regarding any student living in on-campus housing who has been missing for 24 hours or more must be referred immediately to the UW-Whitewater University Police Department at phone number 262-472-4660. Students living in on-campus housing are encouraged to identify a contact person or persons whom the University will attempt to notify within 24 hours if the student is determined by the University Police to be missing for the prior 24 hour period. Only authorized campus officials and law enforcement responsible for the missing person investigation may have access to this information. Students will be asked to list these individuals as an emergency contact during the check-in process and will be allowed to do so online. The student will be able to make any desired changes to their contact information online throughout the year. It is the policy of Residence Life to involve and turn over all related information and reports to University Police in all missing persons cases. In addition to any student-designated contact person, if the student is under 18 years of age and not emancipated, the University will attempt to notify a custodial parent or guardian within 24 hours of when the student is determined to be missing.
When it is reported that a student is missing for 24 hours Residence Life will follow the following procedures:
- Immediately notify University Police
- Make contact with roommate and ask other peers on the floor about information they may have.
- Utilize technology such as social networking sites and electronic access reports from student ID to attempt to identify student's recent whereabouts.

Our Christmas
a few highlights from our Christmas:
*Harper (who just turned 2) was more excited about unwrapping everyone's presents than her actual presents. she LOVES her new Dora book from her grammy and her other fave. is her new big bird puppet.
*Harper also got 2 personalized CDs from her Aunt Keli from cyber-savvyshop.com. she thinks it is pretty funny that Elmo knows her name! the Fun Time Nursery Rhymes is really good too. i love how the guy sings songs and talks to Harper–so so funny!
*John and i got each other a new Blue Ray player that streams Netflix movies. this weekend we watched Food, Inc and Mongol. Mongol was fascinating…especially if you are into Genghis Khan. (we are!!) we plan to spend the next week laying in bed and watching movies.
*Rexford (almost 8 months) started crying whenever Harper would open a present. i really think he was jealous. he didn't get much, but will probably get spoiled next year.
*we had super yummy lasagna and meatballs for our Christmas day dinner thanks to MIL! what did you have?
*it was my first Christmas in 2 years to NOT be pregnant and i drank 3/4 bottle of Pinot Noir on Christmas Eve!
Hope your Christmas was as wonderful as ours. blogging will be sporadic this week. i am taking time to spend with family and possible going on a quick road trip up to New Hampshire to look at land!
xo, shari
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas! i hope you all have a wonderful celebration.
we are having Christmas Eve at our house tonight. here is a copy of my grocery list:
horshradish – extra hot horshradish
roastbeef (how much and thinly sliced??) 2 LB should do it
kaiser rolls? what kind of buns (how many?) 8 rolls
provolone (how much?) 1 LB
meats? what kind – typically pepperoni but I am trying not to eat that stuff
crackers? – triscuits, whatever else you like
beef gravy (what kind?) FRANCO AMERICAN or HEINZ
we keep it simple on Christmas Eve and will be having these!
my husband and i finished our Christmas shopping this morning with a trip to Best Buy, the movie theater, and amazon.com. so, i am off to wrap presents and clean the floor. i already have the CD player on with this CD which is really festive for Christmas/NYE parties!

My Holiday Picks
a little late for the holidays, but some girly wall art/photography for the nursery. everyone i know is having a little girl! is anyone pregnant with a boy?? from Simply Hue
show us your BABY BUMP
these pictures were taken at 30 weeks, I'm now 36 weeks. We're having a boy and a girl (our first and second babies!)
I haven't had any cravings, but I have had a *ton* of aversions. Curry, onions, spicy peppers. Grody. The only thing I've really wanted since getting knocked up is a bloody mary. My husband promised he'd make me one in the recovery room
I kept exercising and spinning through the beginning of my third trimester. During my last spin class I looked like a circus bear on a bicycle. If you have to move your legs out of the way of your belly, it's probably time to get off the bike.
thanks, Niki-only 4 weeks to go! i cannot believe there are 2 in there, you look great! (your nail polish is beautiful – where can we find this perfect color?) a bloody mary in recovery sounds like a super idea!!
p.s. i have received sooo many adorable pregnancy photos….and will be featuring one of you every Thursday so check back!! if you want to be featured send your photos and pregnancy details to email@example.com

Rally to Restore Sanity inspires music videos
November 2, 2010 - 12:07 PM
Text size Decrease Increase
Some of the thousands of people who filled the National Mall on Saturday for the Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear went back home and got creative over the weekend -- producing music videos based on sights, signs and interviews.
Check them out after the jump.
Here is a clever one -- singing the signs from the Rally to Restore Sanity "Muslims and timelapses and bears. Oh my." Video by Grant Slater. And TBD Arts already reported on this one, autotuning the Rally:
And just for fun, here is some footage of people trying, with varied success, to climb trees on the Mall for a better view
Have another creative video from the rally? Submit a link in the comments.

Vote for Andre Johnson as best WR in NFL, or not
I caught my usual dose of Sports Center today, and Chris McKendry and Mark Schlereth discussed a topic about who is the best wide receiver in the NFL. Since Cardinals receiver Larry Fitzgerald is a hot topic right now, he got their votes. Texans receiver Andre Johnson is on the their top five list. Although […] [Read More]
Cougar reunion – moronic response
There are three Cougar football players (Hunt, Vollmer, Hafner) representing UH at the East-West practices this week. They had a super fan decked out in Cougar gear supporting them from the sideline.

Rockets: Reports of a T-Mac rumor? No way.
Here's a rumor reported by the New York Daily News that Rockets superstar Tracy McGrady has been degrading the play of another Rockets superstar, Yao Ming. Now, I'm not sure how a New York paper is able to listen in on a conversation that supposedly happened between friends, but it's worth a read. I'm suspicious. […] [Read More]

|Giorgio Armani Luminous
Giorgio Armani is a world leader when it comes to many personal and beauty products. Over the years, Giorgio Armani products have become synonymous with exceptional quality. Among the personal care items made by the firm, there are skincare, perfumes and colognes. These products are produced and distributed by L'Oreal with whom Armani has had a long term partnership. Giorgio Armani skin care products are readily available in most high end American stores.
Recently one of the products developed by the Armani firm is the Luminous brand of skincare treatments. It is claimed that this innovative product is based on a unique combination of ultra fine microcrystals that can generate a skin tone that appears luminous and natural. The results are said to last a whole day. The Giorgio Armani Luminous micro soft crystals have a very soft texture and give the skin a smooth and comfortable feel. Further, because the microcrystals are made in an oil free base, they are claimed to "capture the gloss" of skin and generate a radiant light. When applied in successive layers, these crystals fill up the spaces in the skin, maintain hydration and also provide a basis for a firm foundation. When used on a regular basis, the luminous formulations are claimed to make you look young, wrinkle free and gorgeous.
Giorgio Armani luminous can be used on all skin types.
Product Details
Unfortunately, Giorgio Armani does not reveal all the ingredients in its Luminous products, but they do describe this new Micro Fil Technique. Micro-Fil Technology is a new technological approach that allows for a mixture of extremely fine, luminous and transparent raw materials: the supple and light texture makes application easy and allows you to play with a multitude of layering effects. Once the Giorgio Armani Luminous microfilm crystals are applied they are claimed to look just like skin.
The Good
- Full refund if one is not satisfied.
- The Giorgio Armani Luminous website appears informative and luxurious.
- Good testimonials.
The Bad
- No ingredients.
- No photos.
- No clinical trials.
- Quite expensive.
- Ultimatley, this is more of a concealer makeup than a long-term wrinkle fighting topical treatment.
The Bottom Line
It is hard to be critical of a brand that is world renowned and that has produced decent quality products over the years. But again, it appears that many European companies simply feel that the consumer does not need to know what is in the formulas. This Micro Fil technology that Giorgio Armani Luminous is based on claims to create an invisible makeup that generates a second skin. But, for starters, what are the crystals really made of? Giorgio Armani goes into great length about the new revolutionary technique but not once are any ingredients listed. Are the crystals made from lead, silicone or diamond? There are a lot of testimonials on cyberspace about Giorgio Armani Luminous. And in the majority of cases, the consumers admire the packaging, style and elegance of the product. The majority simply said they could not afford Giorgio Armani products. In the end, the question is one of affordability. Giorgio Armani has always catered to the elite clientele with money. Also, the Giorgio Amrani Luminous line never claims to be anything other than a concealer makeup product, so those looking for topical wrinkle fighters should look elsewhere.

We know lots of Canadians. They're not really all that prudish. So we kind of wonder why it is that the Vancouver Sun reacted so strongly to the latest photos posted by Wayne Gretzky's 23-year-old daughter Paulina Gretzky, calling them "shocking," "dirty" and "disturbing." And then linking to a whole slideshow of said pics with a big old warning. Which we clicked. (Oh, wait. Now we get it: Canadians are kind of smarter than us.) Aaaanyway. The photos show her in a bikini, drinking beer and hanging out (maybe spreading her legs here and there, but seriously, they are no Kate Upton video) with her friends in Las Vegas.
If you recall, Paulina made headlines last November after her sexy pics caught the attention of the blogosphere, and then of her disapproving hockey legend dad, and she subsequently went on Twitpic hiatus. But lately, she's been posting Twitpics and Instagrams all the time — most of them totally family friendly. And the others just seem to show the girl having a damn good time and acting like your typical, filthy-rich 20-something. She's since taken down a few of the pics that feature raunchier poses, though.
All of this still leads us to wonder: What's Paulina's next move? She made an effort to launch a pop music career a few years ago, and she's modeled a bit. Now that she has all this amazing free publicity for simply partying, we think it's time to strike. Reality show? Fashion line? Acting? Starting a media empire? It's now or never … or the next time you go to a house party, Paulina.

Figure 1-10. Simple Triangulation Net - Example 2
d. Celestial Techniques. Celestial triangulation methods permit the extension of long arcs across
oceans and inaccessible terrain. All of these methods--the star occultation, the moon-position camera,
and the observation and tracking of artificial earth satellites possess one common characteristic--
observed data is not affected by the direction of the vertical at the observation point. The solar eclipse
method has been discontinued due to the infrequency of total solar eclipses and the inconvenience and
frequent inaccessibility of suitable observation sites located along the narrow path of the moon's
(1) The star occultation method provides information similar to that obtained through a solar
eclipse from which the distance between observation points can be computed. This method is used
primarily for connecting isolated islands in the ocean (Figure 1-11). Occultation may be defined as the
passing of a larger celestial body in front of a star. The moon, which is used as the occulting body for
geodesy, revolves around the earth about once a month and in its orbit blocks out certain stars. Using
telescopes fitted with electronic observing and recording devices and a recording chronometer for
precise time determination, it is possible to record the exact instant of the occultation of a star. For
determining a position of a point on the earth, at least two pairs of observations are needed. A pair
consists of occultation measurements at one known station and at another station whose position should
be determined on the same datum as the known station. The same star must be observed on about the
same point of the moon's limb at both stations. An approximate geographic position of the point, whose
geodetic position has to be determined, is known for the prediction of the occultation. The observations
yield a correction to the assumed position of the unknown point.

Welcome to the weekly 'Life's a Journey' nostalgia series, where we link up with stories from years past, life's little memories and the moments which we treasure that have made up our family stories. Each week a new theme…
Oh lordy.
Can you remember when you first borrowed your mother's lipstick and shoes and trotted around the bedroom, beads dangling? I can still see the treasure trove of (costume) jewels which lay in my Mum's bedroom drawer…..little padded, tightly hinged boxes of joy which opened like reluctant clams to reveal their prizes. In Mum's case, everything was modest – strings of fake pearls and glass beads, pin brooches and silver lockets; but no less captivating to young eyes and sticky fingers. I knew I shouldn't be in there, but it was a Venus flytrap for a little girl.
The great thing about being a child of the 70s was the velvet. Long skirts, wide belts and puffy sleeves. There was even a Beaver fur coat and hat in Mum's darkest recesses….perfectly PC for a young secretary in 1960, but confined to the back of the wardrobe by the time I arrived. All great fodder for clompy shoes and THAT jewellery.
And then there was the wedding dress. The softest folds of 1950s lace over a satin bodice. How did my Mum fit into this? She must have been a princess. I wore it and I tore it, but she didn't seem to mind. She must have loved me a lot.
Can you recall your own childhood dressing up days? What about your children – are you as tolerant of their rummaging in your own wardrobe? Did your Mother allow you near her wedding dress or precious jewellery? Share your memories with us in the Linky. Write your own post if you like, or simply join in with a comment. Everyone and their nostalgia is welcome here!

Sarabjit Singh has been jailed in Pakistan from 1990. Pakistan's Supreme Court, last week, upheld Sarabjit Singh's death sentence. The prosecution had accused Sarabjit Singh of being an agent of Indian intelligence agency Research and Analysis Wing (RAW). The family of Sarabjit Singh claims he is innocent (that it's a case of mistaken identity) and has pleaded that he should be spared the capital punishment.Is Sarabjit Singh really a farmhand from Bhikhiwindi, Amritsar, charged as 'Manjit Singh' responsible for serial blasts in Pakistan? India has asked for consular access to its prisoners in Pakistan jails. Media reports in Pakistan said Islamabad has sought consular access to 222 of its citizens jailed in India, and said it would consider New Delhi's request to free 423 Indians imprisoned there. As the diplomatic seesaw continues and allegations and counter-allegations fly across the border, what really happens to the men on either side? Do they live their days hoping against hope or do they slowly die a mental death anyway...Should Sarabjit be spared or has the prosecution done it right this time? After all it had 15 years to make its case...

Cool concepts but takes more time to ask Siri to do these things then to just do them yourself.
Siri can now control third party apps and even start your car via SiriProxy [video]
Siri can now control third party apps and even open cars thanks to clever developers and the SiriProxy. In case you missed it earlier in the week, a developer created a SiriProxy to control a thermostat and then made the code available for others to use. The SiriProxy stands in between your iPhone 4S and Apple's servers. It then intercepts Siri voice commands. This proxy enables additional commands to be added to Siri's repitoire.
Other developers have now started using the SiriProxy to do other weird and wonderful things and we now have example videos of two. The first video below shows a developer using the SiriProxy to work alongside his car Viper system.
The "Siri Proxy" plugin I wrote handles interaction with a php script that runs on my web server. The php script, which I developed months ago for personal use, allows me to send commands to my car which has a Viper SmartStart module installed. Current commands accepted are: "Vehicle Arm", "Vehicle Disarm", "Vehicle Start", "Vehicle Stop", "Vehicle Pop Trunk", and "Vehicle Panic".
The second video shows how Siri can be used with third party apps. Using Siri the developer is able to control a PDF application in the same way.
FastPdfKit Reader is manipulated by various commands with SiriProxy acting in the middle. A plugin is used to add new commands to the ones recognized by Siri, and finally, the proxy then sends the final commands to the app
Looking at these examples, Apple has a huge area of expansion for Siri to head into; if they wish to use it this way. In the mean time, if SiriProxy becomes more mainstream, who knows where this could lead!

Siri can now control third party apps and even start your car via SiriProxy [video]
Not true, it depends where you are on the phone. Saying "set alarm for 9:00 PM" is way faster than getting out of my app, navigating to the right screen, finding the button in a folder, hitting the alarm menu button, moving each individual slider to the right place, and hitting save.
Plus, as it gets more advanced, it will become even more useful. When I used android it was way faster for me to, from the home screen, hold down the search and say navigate to an address than it was to launch the app and type it all in.
That is cool and I think it is faster than opening up the Viper app and then hitting the start button. At least for me as I do have the SmartStart in my vehicle.
Voice control is one of the most complex ideas to implement into a phone.
Just a few considerations they have to make:
-What if you have two music apps and tell siri to play a song, which one does it use when? What if two apps use the same phrases?
-How can you implement natural speaking on third party apps instead of set phrases?
-What if developers don't implement it? Apple wants to limit the inconsistency.

Digital Photograph - Family Camping Trip, Mornington, 1954 Reg. No: MM 110445
- Description Of Content:
- Family group sitting under beach umbrella in front of a tent. There is a car to the left hand side.
This photograph shows the Sheldon family and Gloria Lancaster, Arthur Sheldon's fiancee, camping at Mornington, 1954. Gloria remembers that this was not a special camping ground, just 'a spot under the trees a bit inland away from the beach'. The family usually went away for Christmas, sometimes Port Fairy, sometimes Mornington and other places. Arthur's sister and brother in law, the Condicks, had a large trailer that they used to transport most of the camping gear. Three people slept in a tent. Gloria slept in the Vauxhall family car in a collapsible back seat. 'Grandma' Sheldon cooked over an open wooden fire.

Google car drives potential transportation fix
Car shown at a the Texas Department of Transportation's eighth annual Transportation Forum
AUSTIN - I missed Google's self-driving car.
The machine, which is not merely remote controlled but actually drives itself when given a route, apparently made an appearance at a the Texas Department of Transportation's eighth annual Transportation Forum, a three-day event in Austin last week discussing transportation needs and the future for roadways in Texas.
Lawmakers and policymakers discussed a host of issues in the forum. They tackled the effect of the Panama Canal expansion on transportation. They spoke of supporting the energy industry in Texas, which has laid a beating into Texas roads because of the massive vehicles going down county roads not meant to withstand the weight. And a representative from Google was part of a talk titled "How Technology Is Reshaping Your Transportation Options."
"The transportation forum was a great opportunity to bring transportation leaders from all over the country and Texas and to brainstorm ways to solve our transportation challenges," TxDOT spokeswoman Veronica Beyer said, saying that the central challenges are congestion and safety. "Having conversations about the latest technology, such as the Google car, how to meet funding challenges, it was those types of conversations we had at the forum that we thought were really productive."
Those opposed to the driverless cars sometimes don't trust that the technology will be good enough to handle the roadway. When your computer crashes it's annoying and aggravating. If a computer-run vehicle crashes, it can mean death.
"There is no margin for error with safety-critical technologies," states a report titled "Self-Driving Cars: The Next Revolution," from the tax and audit firm KPMG and the Center for Automotive Research. "They must work perfectly every time; life and death hang in the balance."
Insurance and liability are also at issue, the report states.
"If the driver, by design, is no longer in control, what happens if the vehicle crashes? The 'driver' could well be an innocent bystander or might at least bear lesser liability than drivers do today. A legal framework will be necessary to deal with the potentially complex liability issues that may come with self-driving cars," the report states.
Still others may not want to relinquish the thrill of driving, of being in control in the open roadway.
Those in favor of self-driving cars point to the technology becoming so good that it will be exponentially safer to drive in a driverless car.
That has been a cornerstone of Google's driverless car endeavors: driverless cars will save lives, its representatives have said. Still others in favor think of the convenience of not needing to drive, and, at least during the novelty phase, it will just be cool.
A variety of carmakers are also working on self-driving technology. Google has said it may put its technology into the market within five years.
The car at the forum, complete with a "Don't Mess With Texas" bumper sticker, was a hit, Beyer said.
"Everyone was excited to see the Google car there," Beyer said. "TxDOT and transportation leaders are open to new ways of improving safety on our roads and congestion."
Lawmakers, in the meantime, have problems approaching much more quickly.
TXDOT officials have told lawmakers in hearings that they will soon need $4 billion a year to handle the state's future transportation needs. Congestion in the cities. Deteriorating roads in rural areas. Those problems can't be put on autopilot.

Former Swansea Visteon workers pledge to continue pensions battle
Posted: December 07, 2012|
FORMER Visteon workers fighting to protect their pensions have pledged to battle on in the new year.
Visteon UK, in Fabian Way, was created out of Ford in 2000 and pensioners argue they were given assurances their pensions would be protected.
But workers fear losing up to 50 per cent of their pensions after Visteon UK went into administration.
On Tuesday, MPs from across the country met in Westminster Hall to discuss the plight of Visteon pensioners and to encourage Ford Motor Company to exercise its duty of care to its former employees.
Swansea-based Mike Gard, of the Visteon Pension Action Group, who worked for Ford for 34 years, said they would fight tooth and nail to get their pensions.
"The battle will go on," he said. "We are not going to go away."
Mr Gard, 63, said their campaign would continue and they hoped things would be finally sorted in the new year.
"There is a big court case in May for 10 days in London," he said.
"But hopefully it will be sorted out by then.
"We are still meeting once a month at the Railwaymen's Club in Swansea.
"We have had a lot of positive meetings. It is the fourth Christmas and we are still working hard.
"In Basildon they are still picketing the garages after three-and-a-half years.
"All of the MPs have been really supportive. AM Bethan Jenkins has been a real supporter, we can not praise her enough."
Earlier this year an All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) was formed to press the case for more than 3,000 former Visteon UK workers. MP for Swansea West, Geraint Davies, who is vice-chairman of the APPG group, said: "Ford has a moral duty to make good the pensions of former Ford employees who were given assurances that their pensions would be protected.
"Instead, their pensions had been under-funded, and Ford has a duty to make good the shortfall.
"Ford needs to understand it cannot simply brush this matter under the carpet."
In a previous statement, Ford said: "While Ford recognises the severity of the situation for former Visteon UK employees, Visteon became an independent company in 2000 and was responsible for its own business decisions."
