Sikh groups clash with swords at India's Golden Temple
6 June 2014 Last updated at 18:01 BST
Sikh groups wielding ceremonial swords have clashed in the Golden Temple in Amritsar in northern India.
Several people were injured as rival factions fought after the leader of one Sikh group was reportedly prevented from speaking.
It is believed at least three people were taken to hospital with injuries.
Special prayers were being held at the temple, Sikhism's holiest shrine, to mark the deadly military offensive there in 1984.

Topic: stackexchange
Five years ago, Stack Overflow launched. Then, a miracle occurred.
Stack Overflow officially launched on September 15, 2008. In five short years, you've answered over 5 million questions on more than 100 sites, and helped hundreds of millions of people find the answers they needed. Today, we want to celebrate how, together, we changed one small corner of the Internet for the better.
We want to hear your stories about how someone on Stack Exchange helped you.
"Then, a Miracle Occurs"
Before it went into beta, stackoverflow.com had a comic on the landing page that came to symbolize what we were setting out to do:
We knew what our goal was, and we had some idea how to start, but the entire thing working was predicated on that middle step: "then a miracle occurs". The original vision statement was ambitious:
It is by programmers, for programmers, with the ultimate intent of collectively increasing the sum total of good programming knowledge in the world. No matter what programming language you use, or what operating system you call home. Better programming is our goal. (from Introducing Stack Overflow, emphasis added)
It was a gamble: would people really take time out of their busy lives to answer other people's questions, for nothing more than fake internet points and bragging rights?
It turns out that people will do anything for fake internet points.
Just kidding. At best, the points, and the gamification, and the focused structure of the site did little more than encourage people to keep doing what they were already doing. People came because they wanted to help other people, because they needed to learn something new, or because they wanted to show off the clever way they'd solved a problem.
Which was lucky for us. Because here's the crazy secret about gamification: In the history of the world, gamification has never gotten a single person do anything they didn't already basically like to do.
In the midst of everyone's individual reason for coming, somewhere among the hundreds, and then thousands of people who showed up to answer each other's questions and hammer out how the site should actually work, the miracle actually occurred.
An incredible number of people jumped at the chance to help a stranger
So far, you've provided helpful answers to over five million questions. Those answers are seen by forty-four million people looking for help each month.
To put those numbers in perspective:
- That's more people helped each month than visit the New York Times, Bank of America, or Apple.com.
- If the people helped each month were a US state, it'd be bigger than California and almost twice as big as Texas.
- If they were a country, it'd be in the top 15% of nations in the world, with more people than Canada, Argentina, or Poland. It'd be practically two Yemens.
- If you put one frog in a football stadium for each of the 44MM people who get help here each month, that would be forty-four MILLION frogs. Think about that. But don't say it out loud. People are quick to judge.
Making the Internet a Better Place
The next chapter of Stack Exchange is still being written. A few years ago, we widened our vision beyond programmers. Our new goal was simple, if a bit daunting:
Make the Internet a better place to get expert answers to your questions.
We asked people what other sites they wanted, and carefully started launching them, one at a time. Each time, we were counting on a group of experts to come together and start asking and answering each other's questions. There have been a few failures along the way, but overall, the successes have been amazing.
We're now up to 106 sites, including some outstanding ones on System Administration, Computers, Mathematics, Ubuntu, Video Games, and Cooking, and some young upstarts like our site for English Language Learners. If there's a site you want to see that doesn't exist yet, you can still propose it on Area 51.
At the same time, Stack Overflow is continuing to grow, and we are doing our best to keep it healthy. The short history of the internet is littered with communities that started out great, but slowly petered out under the weight of flame wars, mass-n00bocide, funny cat pictures, or just boredom waiting for the next big thing. We still need your help to keep Stack Overflow focused on its core mission: collectively increasing the sum total of good programming knowledge in the world.
Tell Us Your Story
We want to hear your stories. Looking at numbers is one thing, but hearing from real, live people about how someone's effort here helped them is entirely different. So, if someone's post here ever saved your day at work, or convinced you to buy your daughter an SLR and learn photography together, take a minute to recognize the person who wrote the answer that mattered to you.
If you're somebody who mostly answers questions, share how you got involved and what keeps you coming back. Or tell us about someone who taught you something before we even existed. They deserve to be recognized for the way their investment in you is getting passed on to others here today. If Stack Exchange got you interested in a new topic or taught you a new trick for an old one, we want to hear about it.
Stack Exchange has always been about a community of people helping each other out. It was a long shot when it launched, but you made it work. Now, let's take a few minutes to recognize everything that we've achieved together.
Winter Bash 2012 Conclusion: Boxing Day
So. We've torn through the advent calendar, tossed aside all the wrapping paper, and (hopefully) obsessively screencapped our gravatars wearing various kinds of silly hats. As of last Friday, Winter Bash 2012 is officially over!
This event was awesome. We had a total of 46,710 users participating across 76 sites, and we gave away 108,924 hats total. The most common hat was the And I Feel Fine hat, which 23,171 users earned for activity on December 21st. The least common hat earned was I Do Say, which was obtained by Bohemian, on Stack Overflow, and kalina, on Arqade for posting an epic 30 up-voted questions. Lots and lots of us were able to find all 7 unlockable secret hats, and a few even found an eighth. Well done!
Sadly, all good things must come to an end. We've packed up the hats (and archived the JavaScript) until next time. For now, you'll be able to see the hats you won (and Jin's excellent artwork) on http://winterba.sh. If you're curious to see what hats other people earned, check out the leaderboard.
I really loved seeing how you all got creative in making your gravatars work with the hats — some of which were comically large! Below are a very small number of the hats I enjoyed seeing. There were just too many hats I liked; I have tons and tons of screencaps of users wearing hats in fun, funny, cool, and/or interesting ways.
On some sites, even the Community ♦ user got into the spirit of things:
The best surprise (aside from the little blue circle letting me know I'd gotten another hat!) was seeing users I didn't expect to enjoy hats sporting all sorts of interesting looks. Since Stack Overflow in particular tends to have a stronger "professional" focus, I tend to forget that folks who are passionate about their work get just as passionate about having fun now and again. Seeing some top users from all over the network equipping headgear, well, it caught me off guard and made me smile.
Several of you also found the "easter egg" on the Winter Bash site — holding down Ctrl and collecting all the falling snowflakes revealed a snowy pink unicorn!
Real Data
One of the things I wanted to look into is how a temporary, high-profile badge can alter behaviors. While some users have mentioned that they stuck around more, was this true at large?
The data are not really clear. Sites with a very high hats-to-users ratio saw serious increases in posts created during this time, visits, and general positive responses from traffic. Straw polls of the moderation teams would seem to indicate that general site upkeep (things like flags, edit queues, and other mod-actions) held stable. Anecdotally, the review queues seemed extra empty, though whether that was because fewer folks were around the sites or because everyone really wanted Le Magritte isn't clear.
I know I consider this event a real success! It's been a pleasure seeing everyone get excited, wear silly headgear, and just generally loosen up a bit as the year drew to a close.
Special thanks to Stack Exchange developers Emmett and balpha for building this and keeping it running smoothly, to VP of Engineering David Fullerton for coordination, guidance and encouragement, and to the aforementioned Jin for the beautiful design work.
The Future of Hats
I definitely want to try for some things for the next time:
- Hats in chat has been requested before. I'd like to push for this for next year.
- Site-specific hats would be super cool. Some sites unofficially got a hat — Seasoned Advice and Home Improvement — but I'd love to see more sites get their own bespoke hats.
- More hats! Secret hats seemed to get people the most excited — adding more of those to the batch next year strikes me as a very good idea.
If you have suggestions or feedback about Winter Bash, please feel free to answer this post. I'm going to keep an eye on it, and gather ideas and improvements for next year from your responses.
When we first tried out this idea on Arqade, it wasn't entirely clear this would be well-received elsewhere. But, based on what I've seen these past few weeks, I don't think we've seen the last of Hats on Stack Exchange.
Welcome to Winter Bash 2012!
It's been an amazing year for Stack Exchange, both as a network of experts and enthusiasts and as an organization. We launched twenty new sites, rolled out tons of user-requested features, and are helping 99% more visitors get answers than we were a year ago.
Last year, we celebrated the holidays on Gaming with Hat Dash, where users collected virtual hats by doing various (good, helpful) things on the site. They were sort of like festive, temporary badges (and, like badges, borrowed another good idea from the XBox – earning the ability to customize your avatar).
The response from that event was so positive, we decided to extend that to the entire network1 this holiday season.
Welcome to Winter Bash 2012!
What is Winter Bash?
From 19 December to 4 January you'll be able to decorate your gravatar with a special hat. The hats used on Arqade smelled a bit funny, so we made up an all-new set of hats for you to earn this year. In fact, many of these "hats" aren't even hats! There are sunglasses, moustaches, masks and other assorted headgear.
Each hat has different criteria to unlock it, and there are even some secret hats that you won't find out about until you happen to stumble across them accidentally.
Hats show up all over the site, wherever your gravatar is shown (well, except for a few places where they didn't fit, like chat). To change which hat you're wearing, or to admire your lovely hat collection, just visit http://winterba.sh or check out your user page:
You'll also get a notification when you earn a new item:
For all those of you who really hate hats, there's an "I hate hats" link in the Winter Bash dropdown. But give it a shot before you turn it off — you might find a hat you like!
Check out the Winter Bash FAQ for more details.
Why are we doing this?
Because it's fun, and we love fun – at least, constructive fun, in moderation, at the end of a long, exciting and eventful year. Also, hats are awesome.2
1Well. Only those sites that opted to participate. You must opt-in on Stack Overflow.
2 Please note: virtual hats do not protect against the harmful rays of the sun – always wear sunscreen!
AskPatents.com: A Stack Exchange To Prevent Bad Patents
We've all heard the stories of seemingly trivial patents being used to mug technology companies. There was the patent on the "Interactive Web" which a troll named Eolas used to extract $521 million from Microsoft–until a jury in East Texas threw out the patents. There are the four patents Lodsys is using to send threatening letters to software developers everywhere–trivial patents that Google says never should have been granted, in fact, Google and Oracle have submitted mountains of prior art to show that the patents should be invalid.
Many small app developers have just decided it's cheaper to settle rather than spend half a million dollars in legal fees fighting in court.
What's going on here? And what can we do to stop it?
Anybody who follows patent applications closely and who understands technology may have noticed something odd about a lot of the new patents: they don't really seem like inventions. Really? They got a patent on that? I wrote that in eighth grade. In BASIC. On a TRS-80. Isn't a patent supposed to be an invention?
Yes. But the escalation of the patent wars has led companies to try to patent everything in sight, so they can build up a portfolio of patents ("to defend themselves," of course, so that they have something to countersue with when they get sued). The way they do this is by sending lawyers up and down the corridors where the engineers are working, looking for things that they might be able to patent. And the imperative to get a lot of patents means that sometimes they submit things which aren't exactly inventions per se to the USPTO. Just in case they stick.
Now, the patent office works hard, but in order to determine if something is not an invention, they have to find prior art.
Prior art could be another patent, something in a publication, or even an implementation, like a shareware software program from 1992 that does the same thing that somebody is now claiming to have invented in 2008. It can be published anywhere in the world, in any language, in any publication, no matter how obscure, to qualify as prior art.
And, as you might guess, in the 22.5 hours [DOC] that examiners might have to review each patent application, searching every document published in the entire world in every language is not practical. There's no possible way examiners can conduct a truly exhaustive search of prior art.
And that's how we get bad patents.
Luckily, we got two breaks.
The first break we got is a tiny provision in the America Invents Act, the "Patent Reform Act" which, on the face of it, appears to have done absolutely nothing to solve this problem, but if you look closely, there's a tiny provision in there, which says:
"Any person at any time may cite to the Office in writing prior art consisting of patents or printed publications which that person believes to have a bearing on the patentability of any claim of a particular patent…"
In other words, as of September 16, the USPTO is required to accept submissions from the public of prior art.
The second lucky break is that we have a very good Director at the USPTO right now, David Kappos. Mr. Kappos, who came from IBM, realized that this provision gave the public an opportunity to help patent examiners identify prior art. But it's not enough just to allow prior art submissions… you have to find a way to get the public involved in looking through patent applications and trying to find prior art that could prevent bogus claims.
And that sounds a lot like… a Stack Exchange!
We humbly submit that it's a testament to how good the Director of the USPTO is, that he actually came to us. We were not paying attention. He came–twice!–to the Stack Exchange office in New York City to encourage us to open a Stack Exchange site that would generate heaps of prior art to help the patent examiners do their jobs.
Ask Patents is a new Stack Exchange site launching today that allows anyone to participate in the patent examination process. It's a collaborative effort, supported by Stack Exchange, the US Patent and Trademark Office, and the Google Patent Search team. It's very exciting, because it is opening up a process that has been conducted behind closed doors for over 200 years.
Our hope is that Ask Patents will reduce the number of patents mistakenly granted for obvious, unoriginal non-inventions, especially around software, a field that is near and dear to us.
Ask Patents is a collaborative effort, neatly tagged by keywords and classification, and searchable by patent application number. It is inspired by a research project called Peer To Patent, run out of New York Law School. That pilot project, created by Professor Beth Noveck, proved very successful at identifying prior art that the USPTO wouldn't otherwise have known about.
Citizen volunteers and other interested parties will be able to ask about applications that they think are suspicious. Others can answer, identifying possible prior art, and using our upvote/downvote feature to rate any examples of prior art that other people found.
The USPTO, complying with the new law, will also provide an online system for submitting prior art. We're also integrating with Google Patent Search, so every patent application on Google will include a link to discussion on Stack Exchange. Google has also implemented an algorithmic prior art search utility that will be helpful to site participants.
On Ask Patents, participants can also ask and answer questions about the nuances of patent law or about specific patent applications.
Collectively, we're building a crowd-sourced worldwide detective agency to track down and obliterate bogus patent applications. Over time, we hope that the Patent Stack Exchange will mitigate the problems caused by rampant patent trolling. It's not a complete fix, but it's a good start.
Stack Exchange is not a forum: the role of "niceness" on a Q&A site
It's been a few weeks now since Joel kicked off our "summer of love". There've been some excellent discussions in the blog comments and on Meta, and we've tried to present some hard data on how objectively "nice" we are. But it's high time to talk about what place "niceness" really has on Stack Exchange. And to do that, we need to start by talking about you:
You, sir, are a jackass.
And that's ok.
Stack Overflow wasn't created to be some utopian ideal of peace and love. When Jeff & Joel set out to create this system, they knew full well the sort of problems that face online communities: noisy conversations obscuring real information, preferential behavior toward those in the right cliques, bickering, rudeness…
The rules we've created, the tools we have at our disposal, the very nature of certain features on the sites – these are all engineered to mitigate the problems that inevitably result from throwing a bunch of jackasses together in one place.
Stack Overflow people are nice because we're good at cleaning up after ourselves… And staying focused on what's really important.
Civility is a tool for communication, not a weapon for order
You might think you hang out on SO because people are nice there, but if Stack Overflow was full of very nice, impeccably polite misinformation… It wouldn't be a valuable resource for professional programmers. It'd be more like some elaborate geek troll.
It's good to keep politeness in mind when writing, as your tone can distract readers from your message. It's great to have something approaching real data on how "nice" we are. But in the end, this sort of navel-gazing misses the point: we're not here to pat each other on the back and hand out gold stars, much less waggle our fingers at the jackasses – we're here to share the knowledge of our craft.
Stop and think for a moment about the nicest person you've met on Stack Exchange. Chances are, it wasn't the guy who greeted you by name when you signed on – it was the one who answered your first question, convinced you to clarify what you were asking, and calmly pointed out your misconceptions before pointing you to a solution.
Rudeness as a defense against vampires
As a traditional forum evolves over time, insular rudeness becomes the weapon of choice against the invading hordes, an immune response by the organism toward infection from outsiders. This is only marginally effective, since the most dangerous invaders have long ago developed a resistance to it. Eventually, rudeness becomes institutionalized, to the point where members start to drive away everyone – including each other. It's a natural progression. And on Stack Exchange, it's entirely unnecessary.
Everyone loves to quote from the FAQ's etiquette section, particularly the first "be nice" bit. But it's the last section that has all the action items:
Be honest.
Above all, be honest. If you see misinformation, vote it down. Add comments indicating what, specifically, is wrong. Provide better answers of your own. Best of all — edit and improve the existing questions and answers!
Tired of seeing crappy questions? Close them. Irritated by lousy answers? Down-vote them. Depressed by the meaningless junk that some people post whenever they see an empty text field? Delete it! Embarrassed by poor grammar or formatting? Edit it! See someone being rude? Flag it! All of these tools exist, and we're working hard on making them better and more effective.
So when you can cast a vote and go on with your life, why would you waste your time ranting? It's that old message board mentality creeping in. When you leave a comment, recognize that you're now walking the line between a Q&A site and a traditional forum. If you aren't actively trying to help someone learn, you're not helping to defend the realm - you're just being a jackass.
The choice here isn't between being nice and being right. You can be nice each and every time you guide someone to the right answer or the correct behavior, and doing so is not only better for the community morale, it's also more effective. That doesn't take a welcoming committee, it's something anyone can do. Even jackasses like me and you.

Our Sustainable, USDA-Certified Organic Beeswax is sourced from established Bee Farmers who meet our stringent social, environmental and economic requirements.
We purchase our USDA Organic Beeswax from well-established bee farmers, who are often the third or fourth-generation in the trade and have learned from decades of hands-on experience. Their livelihood is dependent on the ethical and humane collection of crude wax and honey. These farmers take pride in providing a high quality, consistent products year after year, without endangering bees or other wildlife.
The collection of our Organic Beeswax takes place in organized apiaries, or out in the wild – where collectors do their best to ensure the bees are well cared for. By constantly monitoring the hives, farmers can make certain the bees are healthy and well fed throughout the year, especially during times of drought or frost. Many of our bee farmers use wooden hives, which are hung from trees, so wild animals cannot disturb them.
In addition, the majority of our bee farmers contribute to ongoing government and university-funded research. This crucial research is intended to develop better ways to handle bees, and keep them safe in their natural habitat.
Organic Beeswax is a naturally sustainable product from Mother Nature. It is up to us to protect bees, so that they will continue to pollinate and produce high quality Organic Beeswax for generations to come.

Do Republicans Need To Go Negative?
That's what Keith Koffler, reporter and editor of White House Dossier, recommends, and something I've been saying and writing for quite some time now
(Politico) If Republicans want a chance at resurgence, they must take a page or two out of President Obama's worn playbook and veer sharply negative.
But only a page or two. Republicans should not lower themselves to the level of a president who routinely lobs ad hominem political epithets their way, castigating them as intolerant, heartless and petty ogres who live only to serve their masters in the top income tax bracket.
Rather, they must explain why the seemingly good-hearted prescriptions of the Left go all wrong and create more pain than they were intended to ease. Only by first knocking down the liberal edifice constructed by Obama can Republicans rebuild the popular conservative mandate that had dominated politics since Reagan.
Personally, I don't think Mr. Koffler goes far enough as he gives examples of how the GOP should go negative, examples such as
- Obama's proposal to raise the minimum wage costs jobs.
- His federal bailout of the automakers was merely a gift to the unions.
- Obama's tax increases on the wealthy sap the initiative of the most productive members of society while forcing them to shelter their money in unproductive ways. If Obama had tried to stimulate the economy by reducing taxes further instead of "not wasting a crisis" and throwing money around, the economy would be in better shape.
That's what they're doing now. And it doesn't resonate. I compared the GOP to the adult in the room a few weeks ago, being calm, cool, attempting to rationally explain the situation. One of the commenters said they were more like the parents in the room. That's a little closer. They're more like the parents in the waiting room who let their obnoxious brats run around screaming, bothering other people, throwing magazines and brochures on the floor. The hellions become more and more emboldened. The GOP needs instead to be the parent in WalMart who gives the child a good swift swat on the ass, and when they start crying, tell them "I'll give you something to cry about!"
Democrats have been on a good mission for over a decade. That's where geese flying in, poop all over everything, make a lot of noise, poop some more, smear it around, and never leave. Then invite more geese. The GOP needs to counter this by getting out and attacking. Politics is a dirty, nasty business. Always has been, always will be. If you're a boxer and just keep your hands up to deflect punches, throwing a jab here and there while the opponent throws haymakers, you're going to get beaten like a rented elephant.
The American people do not respond, in the most part, to adult talking points: they respond to smears and apocalyptic discourse, quick sound bites attacking one's opponents. The GOP is going to lose no matter what in the Legacy Media, so they might as well take their case to the American People. Go negative. Go on the attack. Impugn Democrats, including Obama. Coordinate the attacks. Stick with the talking points and messaging. I know the inside the beltway establishment Republicans won't like this, but, how's your strategy been working?

A hat
Over the summer I made a hat with the nålebinding technique. My first attempt failed because it was too small, my second attempt was too big but since it had to be felted this wasn't a problem. This hat was made without any instructions and therefore I just could keep my fingers crossed that it would work out.
Here you can see how much it felted, the hat rests on the same helmet as in the first picture. The helmet helped to keep the shape while it was drying. Hardly anything stitches of the process are left to be seen which is a bit unfortunate but it became a lovely warm hat for the winter and that's what counts.

This morning I started experimenting, don't worry nothing that will shock the world but I had fun with strips of fabric. I twisted and pinned them on a piece of cloth, took a long cotton thread and weaved my way through the layer of strips. Took the pins out and enjoyed my view for a while.
Decided to back it with a piece of fabric to hide the ends. A lovely square appeared. At first I thought Oh this could become a pocket but when finished I thought what if I made a fair number of these blocks and sewed them together? If I'll do that I will get a lovely soft blanket of sorts. Hmm, really like that idea but is my stash large enough?
Time to investigate that!

Two books
The first book is called Pictorial weavings from the viking age by Sofie Krafft. In the book you can find drawings and patterns of textiles from the Oseberg vikingship. This ship was found in a large burial mound in Oseberg, Norway in early 1900's. If you want to read more about this find than you can do that here.
The second book is called Twelve British embroiderers by Diana Springall. The fun thing is that it is a English-Japanse book which I found in the Danish library and read by me, the Dutch girl. This made me smile but the book has also very interesting examples of embroidery.
There is one small problem though, I found some lovely stitches but the explanation is in Japanese and so I don't know their names. Made a collage of these stitches and if you know any of their names you are more than welcome to share!
That's all for now.

With these ingredients I made a Hankie-book, a kinda of a detour of the Doodle, gather, create-class of Karen.
Ofcourse it all started with a doodle of one of my favorite rock-carving
and ofcourse also some embroidery on paper.
Since hankies are very popular at the moment at Karen's place I gave things my own twist although it also combined male and female energy.
I enjoyed the company of my snoregaffel big time in this project. On the left you can see the result of a woollen cord made by the lucet, after that the nålebinding technique made this big tie. A strong tie that binds female and male together.
I made a little video so you can see the whole project.
Have a lovely week.

Board will delay its selectionPublished 11:19pm Thursday, February 9, 2012
Pending legal action from its former superintendent also brought a halt to the Selma City School Board's selection of a search firm to select a new superintendent.
The board voted unanimously Thursday night to delay its selection of a search firm — which had been scheduled to take place at the meeting — until after a Tuesday hearing.
Board president Henry Hicks said he felt it would be a wise decision to delay a selection until the board has a clear picture of how legal action will shape up.
"Due to the fact this is going to court Tuesday, is it that urgent that we should do this tonight?" he asked. "I honestly think one or two days isn't going to hurt. I would ask the board to allow us to take this off the agenda tonight and make a later determination on which way we are going."
The board's attorney, Katie Campbell, said that decision is up to the board.
"That decision is up to the board," she said. "The board can decide to hire a firm tonight, or delay it."
There was some confusion that a bylaw would allow the board to select a superintendent Thursday night. However, Campbell said this is not so.

After that first night we were there the word got out that Patti was in town and people came from everywhere.

She blended into the family without much ado. A sweet, tiny, soft baby we nicknamed Squishy. Though adding nursing, how to handle three young girls and adjusting to even less sleep, was tough, it seemed as if she belonged here, knew she was third and knew that her time with Mommy was on a limited basis.

 She never complained. She was my best eater, my best sleeper and my most laid back child.

 But as the year has progressed… In July of 2009, I had my third daughter, Megan. She blended into the family without much ado. A sweet, tiny, soft baby we nicknamed Squishy. Though adding nursing, how to handle three young girls and adjusting to even less sleep, was tough, it seemed as if she belonged here, knew she was third and knew that her time with Mommy was on a limited basis.

 She never complained. She was my best eater, my best sleeper and my most laid back child.

 But as the year has progressed and she has come into her own, I've started to feel great guilt that I never have any real time alone with her. I'll take her to the store, but then I'm shopping, I'll take her out to dinner with friends, but then friends are be there. Never do I feel have more than a few hours alone with her to play and watch and marvel.

 So when it came time to sign my older two girls up for school, it dawned on me that one day a week, I would have her for 5 hours, just us, uninterrupted and was very excited! Finally, I can get to know my daughter!

 The day is here. Friday. With my older two safely dropped off at pre- school, dual "Bye Mom"'s echoing in my ears, and no distractions in sight, I get to watch, wonder, laugh with and play with my Megan.

 I start by just following her around. Watching her little turned out duck feet half walk, half run her way through the empty house. She checks out Katie's room, finally able to throw Katie's colors freely without a resounding "Megs - NOOO!" scaring her, tears streaming into Mommy's arms. I watch as she flings them as far as she can, laughing and squealing in pure messiness delight. I stand, arms crossed, leaning against the door jamb, reveling in how big she is and a little melancholy that I seemed to have missed her growing so fast.

 She comes running out and heads to Sarah's room. She gets in, stops, turns around and looks at me with a grin saying "Yea, man, let's do some damage!" and immediately heads to Sarah's coveted tool sets. The hammer that is always yanked from her hand, inducing screams and cries and pleas for help, happily bangs on the bench with no one to stop her. I sit on the floor and drink in the open mouth smile that lights up her whole face!

 We turn to the princess CD player and spend the next 30 minutes dancing together to Bipity Bopity Boop. I watch my daughter and notice, probably for the first time since her birth, that she has my lips, her father's eyes and her sister's nose. She dances like me, walks like Sarah and squeals like Katie used to. She is defiantly ours and we are blessed to have her.

 I realize, as we are getting her ready to lay down for her nap, that she is an individual. Not simply another child in our family to love and care for. But a separate human being with unique qualities that I can not wait to discover. In the stress, loudness and chaos that is our family, I think it is easy to let her get lost.

 I lay her down, watch her drowsy chocolate brown eyes drift to close, and listen to her suck on her bottle with happy abandon. I thank the Lord above for Friday's.

 Because, Megan, on Friday's, I get to know you. Pregnancy Update: 29 Weeks! What is Baby Up To This Week? tag:www.mombloggersclub.com,2009-12-10:988554:BlogPost:357680 2009-12-10T01:00:00.000Z Newly Parents http://www.mombloggersclub.com/profile/NewlyParents Original Posting at NewlyParents.com here

 There are several days during the week that have some sort of special meaning to them. Monday is the day we all dread as we are heading back to work. Wednesday we look forward too because that signifies that half the work week is over (don't say "Hump Day", you sound stupid), Friday is great because the weekend is here and Saturday and Sunday are reserved for everything you wanted to do during the week.

 But there's has never been anything special about Thursday for us until now. Each Thursday is the start of a new week in our pregnancy! Along the way we have been tracking our pregnancy through Husbands iPhone. The app gives you a story of how the baby is progressing, how mommy should be doing along with a picture of the baby. We look forward to sitting down together and reading outloud the story of how baby is doing this week. Since we enjoy it so much, we thought you might enjoy reading about the baby progress as well.

 Week 29

 Your baby is almost 17 inches tall now (nearly as tall as he will be at birth), and close to three pounds (a weight that will likely more than double — and may even come close to tripling — by delivery time). His wrinkled skin is smoothing out as more fat is deposited under the skin surface. This fat, called white fat, is different from the earlier brown fat that your baby accumulated. Brown fat is necessary for body temperature regulation while white fat (the fat you have, Mom) actually serves as an energy source.

 Which explains why your energizer baby feels so…well…energized! Space in your baby's living quarters is now at a premium, so you'll be feeling jabs and pokes from elbows and knees mostly. But those kicks will be more vigorous than before (and also less erratic) because your baby is stronger and excitedly responding to all sorts of stimuli — movement, sounds, light, and that candy bar you ate half an hour ago.

 Luckily, your baby doesn't have teeth yet that would need a brushing after that sugary treat, but it won't be long before you'll need to buy that first baby toothbrush! You'll recall that your baby's baby-teeth buds formed weeks ago, but now the buds for permanent teeth are forming in his as well.

 And back to those kicks, who's counting? Actually, you should be. Now's a good time to start doing a kick count twice a day to make sure baby's doing just fine (plus, it's a good excuse for a rest). Lie down (preferably after a snack) and keep track of your baby's movements. You're looking for at least ten movements in an hour's time (don't forget to count movements of any kind — kicks, flutters, swishes, rolls, and so on).

 The last couple of weeks have become increasingly exciting. Just like the story says, he is a growing ball of energy right now doing all kinds of twist, kicks, turns and rolls. Sometimes he positions himself right up against the wall of my stomach and if you put your hand there it's almost as if you're holding him. Husbands like to put his ear on my belly every night after dinner and talk to him while he's moving around. "Where's daddy's baby?" has the become the daily catch phrase. The baby really is learning voices because every day after work, when Daddy gets home, within minutes of Daddy talking the baby begins to start moving. He's so excited to hear his daddy!

 It's pretty amazing that 29 weeks have gone by and only 11 are left. Husband says the time has flown by but I like to remind him that time doesn't go as fast when you are the one actually carrying the baby!

 Please join us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter and we'll return the favor! We appreciate it!

Naked Aussie gets stuck in washing machine
Published on Jan 6, 2014 2:06 PM
SYDNEY (AFP) - A naked Australian man was left red-faced after getting stuck in a washing machine during a game of hide and seek, after police had to grease him up with olive oil to get him out.
The man clambered into the top-loader machine on Saturday afternoon in his unit north of Melbourne, aiming to surprise his girlfriend when she got home.
But he became wedged, sparking a delicate rescue effort.
"He was trying to surprise his missus and became stuck," Sergeant Tim Gleeson told the Herald Sun after police, firefighters, paramedics, and a local search and rescue squad used olive oil to manoeuvre the man out of his predicament.

3 Ways to Make Employee Reviews Less Terrible
It turns out no employee, even those most motivated to learn, like those critical performance reviews. employment, job reviews, job performance, job performance reviews, negative performance review, bad performance reviews
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Do job performance reviews help? A 2012 study from AccountTemps says 94% of company chief financial officers call formal job reviews either "somewhat or very effective" in aiding employee performance. But only 31% of employees believe the same thing.
It's the employees that may be on to something, according to a study on employee performance reviews in the Journal of Personnel Psychology.
The study, by Kansas State University business management professor Satoris Culbertson with help from researchers at Eastern Kentucky University and Texas A&M, shows that no employee -- "even people who are motivated to learn" -- sees negative performance reviews in a positive light.Culbertson and his staff established some basic sketches of employees based on their workplace performance habits:
- "Learning goal-oriented people" like to learn for the sake of learning and often pursue challenges despite setbacks.
- "Performance-prove goal-oriented people" want to prove they are competent to perform a job.
- "Performance-avoid goal-oriented people" want to avoid looking foolish.
