Anyone done any STUPID things while pregnant....
(143 Posts)I crashed our new car yesterday into a concrete pillar in the car park - got a massive dent in the back. DH keeps asking how I managed it and I honestly have no idea (I seem to have blanked it out in my head, except for the massive crunch when I actually hit the pillar) but am sure being 30 weeks pregant has something to do with it... Apparently my mum hit the window of a car showroom when pregnant with my brother and brought the whole thing down! It has really shaken me up and upset me though. Would appreciate any stories to cheer me up from anyone else whose pregnant brain has made them do daft things...
I took my socks of and flushed them down the loo at about 24 weeks. Does that make you feel any better?
You don't have to be pregnant to do things like this. I've done many! Pregnancy is not an excuse!
Well I wasn't quite so destructive, but I was seriously clueless when pg. Once I took our cordless phone out with me thinking it was my mobil. While out I tried to use it to phone DP at home. I couldn't work out why it wasn't working.
My colleague put a chicken, all prepared and ready to roast, in the washing machine.

I attempted to open our front door by standing in front of it and pressing the button on the car key fob. I wouldn't mind but I spent ages trying to work out why it wouldn't open, thinking maybe the batteries had gone. I hope the neighbours weren't watching.
The title alone made me laugh, im clumsy/didtsy anyway but worse when im pregnant!
My DH wanted me to cut his hair with hair trimmer- done it loads of times grade 2 on top 1 around the sides- Easy enough! Nah...got halve way round on realise i'd done 1 on top 2 on the sides I couldnt stop laughing & crying I felt so bad. He had to have grade 1 all over and hasnt trusted me to do it again. LOL
Mainly involving putting things in stupid places. A £20 in the bin for example and only realising after the remains of dinner had been put in on top. Always putting things in the fridge that didn't belong there. Crashed the car too - not badly - but never did that before or since.
Worryingly, the 'putting things in stupid places' problem is still with me
I binned our remote control - only explanation as to where it is gone and DH is away...
Dinner party when 12 weeks I made broccoli soup for a starter and kept thinking i had forgotten to put pepper in. Must have done it about 6 times. Couldn't taste it as suddenly the thought of soup made me feel sick. Sat down to dinner and watched everyone turn bright red. They were too nice to say anything.
I also seem to have lost the ability to reverse park...
ha ha ha
well, I walked in front of a bus which was pretty stupid. Fine now though!
I'm pretty clumsy/daffy anyway adding pregnancy to the mix seems to be baad.
I left my shopping at Safeway. Packed it up, paid for it, left half of it on the till and walked away. Sent DH back for it when I realised and the shop had put it in the fridge for me!!
Pulled a mirrored wardrobe door off it's hinges, ducked out of the way and it went straight through the window. That was embarrassing explaining to the insurance company.
Drove off and left the pram on the pavement after loading in the kids....
oh I've got heaps of stories and I wasn't necessarily pregnant when they happened.
Message withdrawn at poster's request.
I have:
also lost the ability to park, even when I am just driving straight forward into a kerb side space with no other cars in the vicinity. Cue me mounting the kerb and stalling, and having to turn the car around to approach it from the driver's side.
Fallen into the sandpit at the childrens farm.
Left the dishwasher open, turned around, turned back and fell over the open door. Everything flew out, I fell into it. That was quite bad actually, thought I'd done some really serious damage. I had, but only to the dishwasher.
Spilt hot chocolate on a small child's head in the local library.
melted a coffee maker by putting it on the stove with no water in
broken innumerable glasses/plates/bowls
turned up at work this morning with my top on inside out (luckily I noticed first thing)
left half my drying in the machine at the launderette (duh)
Am 21 weeks pg to date: reversed into a basketball stand in a school playground, nearly knocked down a nun (was also in reverse) the following week &
forgot which side of the road you're supposed to drive on and chose the wrong side.
terrifyingly for all of you guys, I drive loads for work (!)
Took my son to playgroup in the car and walked home. Didn't even wonder at the fact that I didn't have a pushchair for him when he's not even two yet.
Only started to wonder when DH arrived home from work on his pushbike and questioned where the car was.
Went to get it back but found the carpark locked for the weekend.. was very unpopular
Last time went to work in one high heeled boot and one flat one.. didn't notice at all. It was pointed out to me by a well meaning customer during a meeting
glad is not just me.... I went to work (on the train) in my slippers. Twice. Luckily I work in the arts and everyone just thought I was really trendy. Bit embarrasing in the queue for the bank though.
Oh god yes, eight months pregnant I decided to wade, fully clothed, into our fishpond (it's more a lake than a pond really) to dive for an clean the filters. There are pics somewhere, maybe on my profile of this. I was hospitalised the following day with high BP - wonder why?!
Oh and reversed into two skips, with lights on, on my own driveway
First time put a micronoodle in the microwave and turned it on but forgot to add the water first so melted the plastic pot and burnt the noodles! Smelt digusting!
This time have put ds clothes in the bin instead of wash basket. Turned oven on left it for an hour, when I went to get the chicken out it was sat on the side obviously still raw!
Told dp last night that ds could have sandwich for dinner, then told him that I would wait until he put our dinner in the oven so that I didn't put the oven on twice.
Waited at a green light and then pulled away when it turned red.
wmmc....dive for the filters...
hehe - fabulous - some real laugh out loud moments there ! (in hindsight of course !)
I'm only 4 wks pg, but did manage on Saturday to DRIVE down a footpath at the side of a church (carpark was on the other side of the church) - once I realised I couldn't go forward, I had to reverse back - saw that there was a wall and I'd have to do a sort of dog leg to avoid it, then promptly forgot and ploughed right back into it
I don't think anyone saw, damage to car was minimal and, fortunately, I hadn't yet picked up my friend and her baby
It is great to hear your stories, glad to hear I am not the only one with parking issues as well..! Pregnancy is my excuse and I am sticking to it!!!

In a program titled "Marcovicci Sings Movies and Other Love Songs," expect the onetime actress to expertly croon a discerning selection of standards and alternately tug at your emotions with poignant tales of composers' lives as well as a few personal anecdotes.

To find out what happens, check out the film, which screens at 3:00 and 8:00 p.m. at Miami-Dade County Auditorium, 2901 W.

In the past few years Miami hasn't been the ideal place for local musicians to make a living. Actually it's always been tough. Not a surprise then, that many bands move out of town. Art-punk outfit Kreamy 'Lectric Santa is one of those that relocated to Atlanta recently. Unfortunately in February Kreamy member Priya Ray was left partially paralyzed after a freak accident. Ray's physical condition is improving, but her financial condition is not. She is uninsured and needs help to foot her medical bills. That's why local promoter-about-town Danny Jessup has organized a Priya Ray Fundraiser getting under way at 8:30 p.m. at Tobacco Road (626 S. Miami Ave.). Artists will sell their work, there will be a silent auction, and three stages (upstairs, downstairs, and on the patio) will host a slew of local solo musicians and bands, including Amanda Green, the Goods, Humbert, the Kind, Matt Sabatella, Passion Seeds, Mr. Entertainment, Frank "Rat Bastard" Falestra, and more. Admission is five dollars for this 21-and-over event. Call 305-374-1198.

Tired of Trivial Pursuit, bored with backgammon? Maybe you should give mah jongg a try. Yes, mah jongg, the game that originated in China and that you remember your grandparents fiercely playing in the rec room of their condo, is quickly becoming a popular pastime among the hip crowd. This evening at 7:30 at the Sanford L. Ziff Jewish Museum (301 Washington Ave., Miami Beach) Marc Levin, owner of the Indian Creek Hotel, and his fellow players demystify the game for you during a presentation called Just Sitting on the Porch and Playing Mah Jongg. Veteran players are also invited to bring their mah jongg sets along and pick up some tips. Admission is five dollars. Call 305-672-5044. (NK)

Say the word "hoochie" and everyone pretty much knows what you mean: A person, usually a woman, with "loose" morals. In the old days, hoochies were known as sluts and every social circle always had one. Leora Tanenbaum knows the infamy of being called a slut. Labeled one in high school, she went on to write an article about sluts for Seventeen magazine. That led to her writing the book SLUT! Growing up Female with a Bad Reputation, for which she interviewed women ranging from adolescent to senior-citizen age, many of whom boast of attaining high achievements. (No, they didn't sleep their way to the top!) Tanenbaum, a freelance writer for the Nation, Ms., and Newsday, reads from and discusses her book tonight at 8:00 at Books & Books, 296 Aragon Ave., Coral Gables. Admission is free.

Rapid Reaction: Baylor 75, Kansas State 73
January, 10, 2012
Jason King | ESPNDallas.com
MANHATTAN, Kan. -- Here are some quick thoughts from Baylor's 75-73 victory over Kansas State on Tuesday at Bramlage Coliseum.
Overview: Perry Jones III scored 17 points and Pierre Jackson dished out 11 assists to lead the No. 4 Bears over the 18th-ranked Wildcats. At 16-0, Baylor is one of the country's three remaining undefeated teams. Rodney McGruder scored 30 points for a Kansas State squad that entered the game flying high following Saturday's blowout of previously unbeaten Missouri. The Wildcats had a chance to win or force a tie with 3 seconds remaining, but Baylor's Quincy Acy deflected their inbounds pass down the court and time expired during the chase for the loose ball.
Star of the game: For Baylor, it had to be Jackson, whose 10 points weren't nearly as big as his 11 assists. Jackson has completely changed the tone of the Bears' program with his toughness.
McGruder came up huge for the Wildcats against a big-name opponent again, having scored 20 points in Saturday's victory over Mizzou. McGruder is becoming more aggressive with each game, which has been a problem for him at times in the past.
Turning point: The game wasn't decided until Acy swatted away Kansas State's inbounds pass under the Wildcats' basket in the waning seconds. Moments earlier, he had scored five consecutive points to help Baylor turn a 71-69 deficit into a 74-71 lead. A basket by McGruder shaved the Wildcats' deficit to 74-73 before Jones was fouled while rebounding a teammate's miss on the other end. He made one of two free throws to make it 75-73.
What the win means for Baylor: The Bears survived what will be one of their two toughest Big 12 road tests. The other will come Monday at Kansas. This team is mentally tougher than Bears squads of the past, and its depth has been a huge factor in its success. Anyone who doubted Baylor before Tuesday would be foolish to question the Bears now.
What the loss means for Kansas State: Frank Martin's squad has no reason to hang its head after this one. The Wildcats are a legitimate threat to end Kansas' streak of seven consecutive Big 12 titles. They might not lose again at Bramlage Coliseum, and they are gritty and tough enough to win on the road. This could be Martin's finest coaching job yet, and Kansas State is only going to get better.
Up next: Baylor hosts Oklahoma State on Saturday in Waco, Texas. Kansas State hits the road for a tilt with Oklahoma that same day.

Table of Contents
Education leaders have three essential resources: time, money, and emotional energy. Time is fixed. Financial resources are typically fixed and, in the present economy, diminishing. Emotional energy is variable but has limits that are exhausted quickly by school leaders who ignore the reality that even the most dedicated employee can be resilient but will refuse to be an eternal Bobo doll, rising from each punch to endure another blow. The Law of Initiative Fatigue states that when the number of initiatives increases while time, resources, and emotional energy are constant, then each new initiative—no matter how well conceived or well intentioned—will receive fewer minutes, dollars, and ounces of emotional energy than its predecessors. This chapter considers the adverse effect of the Law of Initiative Fatigue on high-impact professional learning.
"Execution"—for some readers it brings to mind the best-selling book by Larry Bossidy and Ram Charan (2002), a chatty memoir of the joys of corporate leadership before economic reality established that celebrity CEOs and consultants have feet of clay. For other readers, the same term is redolent of earlier centuries in which the guillotine, the auto-da-fé, or the battle axe were all mercifully more brief than management books on the subject of execution. Perhaps the most offensive part of the latest genre in which former business leaders presume to inform the rest of us about effective leadership is their enthusiasm for the "initiative." Even the most infectious enthusiasm for new initiatives is an insufficient condition to create more than 24 hours in a day. Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI lost their heads; those who persist in ignoring the Law of Initiative Fatigue have lost their minds.

Yaya Toure
By Kunle Adewale
Winner of the Glo-CAF African Footballer of the Year Award 2012, Yaya Toure, has stated that winning the award for the second time in a row with his compatriot, Didier Drogba, emerging the first runner-up, will go a long way in inspiring Cote d'Ivoire to victory at the Nations Cup in South Africa.
The Manchester City midfielder said his side has a lot of respect for all the teams that will be participating in the Nations Cup but believe Cote d'Ivoire will settle for nothing but the trophy in South Africa.
"African football is very difficult and we will have to play and win six difficult matches to emerge as champion but we were more than ready for the task ahead.
"We came to win it in Libreville when we played in the final against Zambia in the last edition of the Nations Cup but luck was not on our side and we returned home with a lot of lessons learnt. But this time around it's the trophy or nothing," Toure said.
The former Barcelona utility player however admitted that the 2013 championship in South Africa would be more competitive that the one jointly hosted by Equatorial Guinea and Gabon.
"With the presence of countries like Nigeria that missed out in the last edition, Tunisia, Morocco and the defending champion, Zambia, it will be a tough battle but we hope to emerge victorious at the end," he noted.
Toure however expressed gratitude to CAF and the sponsor of the award, Glo, saying he will continue to work harder to be shortlisted for the award next year.

I thought I saw you earlier int he week (possibly tuesday) driving past engineered automotive, then doing a U turn and coming back around and going in. I was pulling out just as you passed in the beater(gold volvo wagon)

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
Working on a typeface where the client wants to have 45 pts on all sides of the glyph basically. It's a monospaced Chinese font. I have the metrics set so 45 pts are on either side for side bearings, I have 45 pts added onto the cap height for the ascender, and 45 added to the baseline to get the descender. The client wants the highlighted text to go below the text 45 pts...but when I export, it won't highlight that increment. What am I doing wrong?
Here is the font info box:
Here are the highlighted characters in comparison. The image on the left is the way they want it to appear when it's highlighted (so there is a little more space below the descender); the right shows the way it is currently appearing- cutting off right below the character.
Any help on this is appreciated.
- Go to the "true type specific metrics" info box.
- Change from "Automatic" to "Custom" and manually enter 845 and -260 on all the 3 ascender/descender boxes. And set the LineGab to zero.
- Export again.
Once in Illustrator/Photoshop, set the Line Spacing to the same size as the font.
(For example, 700 and 700, instead of 700 and 840)
Ok thanks!! I will try this and see how it goes. So i will need to tell my client to set up their illustrator file appropriately correct? Otherwise it won't show the changes I make?
I tried your advice in the TT window, and it still did not add additional highlighting to the bottom. I took a screen shot of how it is looking now. I put a guide for where the highlighting needs to go. I need to change something in the Ascender or Descender to accomplish this...but what increment? Been trying different amts and nothing seems to be working to add to the bottom.

Hello everyone. I just upgraded to a 10 gallon keggle system and am in the market for an immersion chiller able to cool down 10 gallons of wort. I am checking to see if anyone has one that they are looking to get rid of before I go buy/make a brand new one. I have a 25' copper one with brass hose fittings that I will be willing to trade as well. I am located in Columbus, Ohio. Thank you, Ben
I have a 5 gallon that I got from northern brewer, if that helps. Or you could just keep checking back on the classifieds, something will pop up sooner or later.

Thousands to Run Out of Welfare Benefits
Posted: 09/29/2011 - Cash assistance is supposed to be a help up, not a way a life. That's the reasoning supporters of the new cap on welfare benefits point to. Logical or not, it doesn't make it any easier for families soon to be without a roof over their heads.

"The invitations were adorable and sweet. We received many comments from our guests. The thickness and weight of the card were exactly what I wanted not flimsy and light. I received my order within few days. I would recommend this product to you. You won't be disappointed."
"I was ordering baby shower invitations for my daughter's shower. The card was perfect and the customer service was outstanding. I even received a handwritten note from my customer service representative saying she hoped I loved the invitation! I was quite impressed with this company."
"I have two nieces (sisters) that are expecting within a couple of months of the other, so decided for the benefit of the guests (90% would have been invited to both showers) to do a joint shower. I was worried that creating an invitation would be tricky, but this was perfect. Both Moms-to-be were thrilled! The envelope option was a bonus."
"This invitation came to my doorstep so quickly. It looks exactly as I designed it. I absolutely love it. It is dainty and sweet. Perfect for a simple low key baby shower."
"I love how this invitation turned out! The bright colours against the darker background are really fun and very easy to read. I ordered regular rectangular cards and they look spectacular. Couldn't be happier!"

The Billionaire's Vinegar tells the story behind the notorious and controversial Jefferson bottles, a collection of vintage Bordeaux said to have belonged to Thomas Jefferson that subsequently sold at auction for record-breaking prices. The book written by Benjamin Wallace, traces the history of the wines, found in a walled-up Paris basement by German collector Hardy Rodenstock. They include a 1784 Château d'Yquem, a half-bottle of 1784 Château Margaux and a 1787 Château Lafite Bordeaux, which set a record sale price of $156,450 when auctioned at Christie's in 1985. The cache's authenticity has remained a constant source of controversy and has been the subject of several high-profile court cases involving billionaire William Koch and Decanter's veteran columnist Michael Broadbent. In May 2012 it was announced that the book will be adapted into a film starring Brad Pitt.

Those with mature skin, be it dry or oily, should know that there is nothing intense or restorative about this water-based serum. The olive oil provides antioxidant benefit, but only if you take care to keep this translucent-packaged product away from light, which will cause any oil to become rancid over time. The amounts of calcium and colostrum are insignificant, but that's OK because neither is capable of making older skin younger in any way. The most intriguing ingredients in this serum are but a dusting.
Intense Calstrum Hydrating Restoration & Support Serum is a velvety ultra-luxurious beauty treatment serum formulated to meet the needs of aging skin. Highly specialized, well-researched ingredients were chosen to help support fragile, thinning, paper-like skin and help it look younger and more vibrant.
Water, Cyclopentasiloxane, Butylene Glycol, Dimethicone, Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Peg-10 Dimethicone, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Calcium Gluconate, Methylparaben, Ethylparaben, Propylparaben, Butylparaben, Isobutylparaben, Phenoxyethanol, Behenyl Alcohol, Colostrum Whey, Trifolium Pratense (Clover) Flower Extract, Glycerin, Lecithin, Sodium Chloride, Stearyl Alcohol, Tetrasodium Edta, Fragrance, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate
Serious Skin Care At-A-Glance
Strengths: Provides complete ingredient lists on Web site; several good cleansers; some impressive serums (with and without retinol) and primers; one effective BHA (salicylic acid) product; effective AHA (glycolic acid) pads; effective 5% benzoyl peroxide product; the lip line–filling products (though the effect is not akin to dermal fillers as claimed).
Weaknesses: Too many products, which makes determining what to buy incredibly confusing; several good formulas hampered with needless irritants; no effective skin-lightening options; jar packaging for many moisturizers, which allows the important, but unstable, ingredients to degrade; average masks; the at-home peels are terrible; too many gimmicky products; very small assortment of sunscreens, especially considering all of the anti-aging products; the Beauty Treatment patches are gimmicky and useless; the Glucosamine and Calstrum sub-brands are mediocre; and an irritating lip plumper.
Before you learn anything else about this brand, you need to know that their range of products is E-N-O-R-M-O-U-S. Few lines offer so many products that add up to so little in their entirety. The sheer depth and extent of this line (and it is deep) makes it somewhat inevitable that there will be at least a few diamonds-in-the-rough products you may want to take seriously.
Sold via the Home Shopping Network (HSN), The Shopping Channel, and directly from the company, most of my readers are aware of this brand due to its recurring television appearances. In fact, on publication of the seventh edition of Don't Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without Me, many readers wrote to ask why we didn't include a new review of this line (we had reviewed it in previous editions of my book). The best answer we can give (outside of the fact that our book already was packed full of reviews and heavy enough to be used as a weapon) is that we honestly didn't think there was much interest in the brand. We rarely received questions about it until it wasn't in the book anymore. But, as always, your interest made it an easy decision (though truly arduous task) for me to revisit this line. Keep in mind that this is one of the most extensive skin-care lines we've ever reviewed.
After delving into the review of the Serious Skin Care line, we quickly discovered why there is more intense interest in it than ever before: The product selection has spiraled out of control and the claims for this at-one-time far more "e;serious" brand's products have gone over-the-top. Now it's laden with ridiculous claims that, regrettably, make it very tempting for consumers, which is surely what the company intended.
Temptation aside, what you have to deal with when shopping Serious Skin Care is the company's poorly organized Web site, which makes the huge product assortment even more confusing (just ask my research assistants; few lines left them scratching their heads more than this one). Even the company doesn't know how to organize or explain what they have and why one skin type would need one product rather than another. That alone might explain why the line does better on shopping channels, where they present only one specific group of products at a time so you don't have to sort through the entire menagerie on their Web site or in a catalog (and good luck to anyone who decides to go down that path!).
A bit of background: Serious Skin Care is from aesthetician Lesa Stock and model Jennifer Flavin-Stallone, who certainly has a charming presence on television. The line began by selling anti-acne products, and has grown into the overwhelming line it is today, with all products claiming to be hypoallergenic (a completely false generality given the number of problematic ingredients Serious Skin Care includes in some of their products). From its anti-acne beginnings on Home Shopping Network, the company blossomed into claims that they have the solution to every skin problem, which of course they don't.
Those with acne will find an incomplete selection of products; those with skin discolorations won't find an effective product to lighten them; there are way too many products that contain irritants (and you won't find a page of research proving those irritants are skin-care essentials); and no matter how you shop this line you'll be forced to compromise if you want to remain loyal to Serious Skin Care. That's because the sub-brands (which include some of the line's star products, at least if you believe what they say during Serious Skin Care's spots on HSN) are mostly one-note products. For example, vitamin A/retinol is offered in one group, vitamin C in another, olive oil gets its own lineup, and if you want to try glucosamine on your skin, that's its own line, too. This begs the question: Why not just put all those ingredients into a few products instead of spreading them out? Skin can benefit from all of those ingredients, and all of those ingredients can remain stable in one formula.
Also available are antioxidant-based products, vitamin B products, lifting, firming, DNA-repairing, brightening, and on and on. Oddly, with dozens of anti-aging products and their lofty claims, there is a surprisingly small selection of sunscreens or daytime moisturizers offering broad-spectrum sun protection, which, as we've told you time and again, is the critical part of any skin-care routine. We realize lots of cosmetic lines capitalize on the "star ingredient" concept to expand their line, but if Serious Skin Care really wanted to assert itself as a skin-care authority, they could streamline their lineup considerably by combining the best of multiple products into a range of truly stand-up-and-applaud products.
It's important to mention that there also are numerous peptides in many of these products. While peptides are potentially (and let me stress potentially good ingredients), they are NOT proven in any way to have an effect on skin that's on par with their anti-wrinkle claims. Please refer to the Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary on this site for detailed information about peptides.
As mentioned above, there are some gems in the Serious Skin Care line, as noted in the list of strengths in the At-A-Glance section. It's also worth noting that, for the most part, the prices aren't out of line for what you get. If you pay attention to the products this line does well, you may very well be pleased. But, even though there are some great products available, few of them are so outstanding that you cannot comparison shop and find even better formulas (sometimes for less money, too).
One more point: In late 2007, Flavin-Stallone launched the Seriesse brand of products. This multi-level marketing company (think Amway or Arbonne) sells some of the Serious Skin Care products and additional products under the Seriesse brand, which Flavin-Stallone runs with her husband, Sylvester Stallone. Although expanding into this type of business may have been a smart move for Flavin-Stallone, we can't help but wonder if her sincerity about Serious Skin Care is genuine. After all, if Serious Skin Care has everything consumers need to manage and improve their skin, why would you need to start yet another brand of products? We have not yet reviewed the Seriesse line, but the products are designed as an extension of Serious Skin Care (which, as we mentioned, should be thinking about downsizing, not expanding, their product selection). It must be that Serious Skin Care's market research indicates that women have an insatiable appetite for this stuff and, therefore, adding even more products must mean better skin. (Now seriously, does that really make any sense?)

A flaw in the multibyte character handling allows execution of arbitrary SQL statements.
2. Impact Information
PostgreSQL is an open source object-relational database management system.
PostgreSQL contains a flaw in the string parsing routines that allows certain backslash-escaped characters to be bypassed with some multibyte character encodings. This vulnerability was discovered by Akio Ishida and Yasuo Ohgaki.
An attacker could execute arbitrary SQL statements on the PostgreSQL server. Be aware that web applications using PostgreSQL as a database back-end might be used to exploit this vulnerability.
3. Resolution Information
There is no known workaround at this time.
All PostgreSQL users should upgrade to the latest version in the respective branch they are using:

The winter nearly all of us want to see gone has been hard on just about everything, people, pets, livestock and most of nature's other inhabitants.
One of many people's favorite feathered friends, bluebirds, have taken a big hit, it seems. Two people have come to the News over the past week after finding several dead bluebirds in their birdhouses.
The National Science Foundation reports – as if it's a bad thing – that one quarter of us Americans believe the sun revolves around the Earth.

They're called sunrise and sunset. If they happen as the scientists say they do, why don't we call them "Earth's rotation into sunlight" and "Earth's rotation into darkness?"

Lee Hamilton Center for Congress
In his State of the Union speech to Congress last month, President Obama drew widespread attention for pledging to use his executive authority to advance his priorities.
He insisted he intends to act with or without Congress, and listed well over a dozen actions he plans to take by executive order.
"Wherever and whenever I can take steps without legislation to expand opportunity for more American families," he said, "that's what I'm going to do."

Editor's Note: The Perry County News is publishing a series of interviews conducted by eighth-graders in Joyce Stath's English class at Tell City Junior-Senior High School. The interviews are of people one or two generations older than students. Today's column is by Bryon Reid, who profiles his grandfather, Dale Jones.

A few weeks ago, I was on my way to visit a friend in a neighboring town. It was my first time in the area, so, although his house would have been easy to find off the main highway I was traveling, I punched in the address on my phone's maps feature and blindly began following its suggested course.

I wasn't sure where to post this but I couldn't find the other homeschooling section so here it goes
My 3yr old(will be 4yrs on Feb. 14) tries to read while I'm reading to her so I asked her if she wants to learn to read and she said yes. I had to explain she can't repeat me while I'm reading since she can't really hear what I'm saying while she is trying to read since a lot of what she would say would be mumbling or not the right words. So now she tries to repeat the sentences after I've read them, she is very proud of herself when she gets it right.
She knows her ABC's really well and knows a few of the sounds letters make. I haven't been pushing for her to learn to read. I don't want to discourage her from learning to read since shes trying but I'm also wondering if shes to young. Anyone have suggestions for what I should do? Or try?
She's not necessarily too young. It depends on the child; two of mine were early readers at 3, and fully fluent by 4 or 5. The trick is to let her push things forward with her interest, her questions and her observations, and to not hold any expectations about her rate of progress or the route she'll take to get there. So I don't think you want to jump in and administer some sort of systematic learn-to-read program. It's possible she won't be ready to read for another three or four years, or that the best route to reading for her brain just now will turn out to be a route you hadn't imagined. (My own eldest dd learned to read by poring over mail-order catalogs and National Geographics silently for hours and weeks on end, while I had assumed she'd by nature be a systematic code-breaker wanting more of a phonics approach.)
It sounds like right now your dd is using her aural memory to full advantage, repeating things she hears you read. It's hard to know from your description whether she's connecting those words meaningfully with their printed representation on paper. But she may be, or she may begin to. A lot of children learn to read by memorizing simple (often repetitive) books and then running through the text repeatedly by memory while gradually noticing what the associated printed words look like.
At any rate if she's enjoying what you're doing now there's nothing wrong with it and it may very well help her pick up the building blocks of reading. You might try using some simple repetitive books to limit vocabulary and allow her to begin to see patterns in the text she's gradually memorizing. Stuff like Dr. Seuss was enjoyed by my kids. She might also enjoy playing 'word hunt' after you've read a short section of text. See if she can find the word "fish" (or whatever) where it's written on the page. Give her clues if she needs them.
She might like the alphabetti books at progressivephonics.com.They're free.
A few good resources that we have used recently are:
Miss Rhonda's Readers (Montessori based)
Preschool Prep: Meet the Phonics - Letter Sounds (also the Blends, and Digraphs)
Preschool Prep: Meet the Sight Words dvd
There's also Preschool Prep early readers, but I haven't used those so I can't attest to their helpfulness. My son is 3 and, like you daughter, he loves letters, letter sounds, etc. and wants to learn to read but says he is "too little". Have fun!
Just go with the flow of things, my babe will be 3 in February and she has really started reading words and trying to sound them out, it's really cute. My hubby was an early reader also, so it's not something i'm going to restrict.
Solely depends on the grasping power of a child. Don't run away from her queries, answer each one and let her read as the way she is doing, and do tell where she is going wrong.

WISCONSIN SPORTS ROUNDUP: No state golfers in British Open
For the first time in a while, none of Wisconsin's P-G-A regulars are golfing in the British Open which began overnight at Muirfield in Scotland. Steve Stricker of Madison turned down the invitation, as he scaled back his schedule this year to do more at home. Stricker – the world's 10th-ranked golfer – now admits it wasn't the smartest thing to bypass the year's third major, but he said he has a legitimate reason for skipping it. He's celebrating his 20th wedding anniversary this week.

Minneapolis based eclectic pop group WALKER KONG needs your help completing their exciting new album PHAZES of LIGHT. Read more
Minneapolis based eclectic pop group WALKER KONG needs your help completing their exciting new album PHAZES of LIGHT.
About this project
About Us
WALKER KONG is a Minneapolis based musical group that formed in 1998 with a desire to make a connection through the pursuit of creativity and music. In the process we have recorded and released three acclaimed full length records and now we're happy to announce that we are very close to completing our fourth studio album entitled PHAZES OF LIGHT.
About the ProjectThe recording for "Phazes" is 100% complete but we will need additional funds for mixing and mastering the album. This time around we are working with veteran Nashville studio whiz Mark Nevers (Elvis Costello, Candi Stanton, Andrew Bird, Lambchop, Bonnie "Prince" Billy, Silver Jews) who has produced, recorded and mixed some of our favorite sounding records of the last decade.
Our Goal
We're so excited to have this opportunity but in order to do it right it requires some additional monetary support. Our goal is $1,850.00 but if we reach it please keep pledging. Every dollar affords us more time and a higher quality end result. Remember, if the goal is not reached the project is not funded.
How it Works
Kickstarter is a fundraising platform used to connect people working on creative projects with people who are interested in offering monetary support to help with the completion of that particular project. One of the amazing things about Kickstarter is that everyone who pledges will receive a unique gift from us (see the column to the right) for their wonderful generosity and support. The tricky thing is that if the fundraising goal is not reached by the last day of the campaign, none of the pledges are collected and the project will not be funded.
You Can Help
1) Find a level that works for you and make a pledge (every dollar helps).
2) Spread the word! Share a link to this page via email, Facebook or twitter to those who might be interested in supporting the project.
Thank you so much for your continued support!
Have a question? If the info above doesn't help, you can ask the project creator directly.
