Wordpress broken slider
Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: [object Object][rel="2"]
Using an old-ish version of Woo's Diner theme, but with lots of mods so didn't really want to upgrade.
The way the pagination panel is created has changed in 0.5.5 of loopedSlider.js:
https://github.com/rbmntjs/loopedLiquidSlider/commit/89ed7891100e7ff6e1a291c1697833e0f6a0391e
So I just commented out the offending line on the server as the client isn't using it.
function current(times) {
if(times===slides+1){times = 1;}
if(times===0){times = slides;}
$(pagination,$t).parent().siblings().removeClass("active");
/* $(pagination+"[rel='" + (times) + "']",$t).parent().addClass("active"); */
};

What trainer next after my (structured) Nike Triax?
Had a good chat to the Irish chap in SweatShop (Brighton) and he's road-testing the Triax 16 due for imminent release; so that seems the obvious choice. But others for consideration are: Brooks Adrenaline 12, Adidas Sequence, Nike Eclipse and Asics 2170. I'm tempted to go off-piste and try the Brooks.
<EDIT>Tried the Brooks GTS 12 and Nike Triax 15+ and went for the Asics 2170 (top image).

Uses for an infra-red (IR) thermometer
I've just received my Ryobi SW-638E. It was extremely cheap on eBay for some reason: approx. £15.
I initially thought it would be useful for performing a thermal analysis of the house (finding cold spots that require insulation) and checking the temperature of confit oil; but I feel there could be so much more.
Confirming the temperature of the oven
Our oven instructions say not to put anything on the bottom of the oven, which I've not taken much notice of. But the Ryobi showed the back top of the oven was around the dialled temperature of 220°, but the bottom was over 300° as the oven warmed up! So the element must be in the bottom of the oven and the instructions are probably sensible.
Checking heat loss in door panels
I have a wooden front door with several frosted glass panels. The panels measure a good few degrees lower than the surrounding door so perhaps some improvised double-glazing would be worth a try?
To be continued ...

Complete Vietnamese is too hard!
I always learn a bit of the language when I visit a place, but the first chapter of this book I find impenetrable. Perhaps it will get better? We'll see, but for now (as my own learning aid) I will try and break it down a bit.
The tone drills on the CD are fine, but it concludes the chapter with a poem (I think) that Vietnamese school children are tought. I've never felt this steep a learning curve with Pimsleur. There's also no phonetic pronunciation guide to help out.
