The new trailer for STARWARS episode III is out now, and it looks fantastic - lots of Wookies, Darth Vader rising, Sabers - its got the lot. Its at http://www.starwars.com and heres some screen grabs:

Just about to go on in a moment including the sublime1938 “The Lady Vanishes” and “39 Steps” Can’t wait!

Of course I am getting all my TV listings from the much improved Radio Times website or the lovely CSS guide off Bleb. Enjoy.

There seemed to be lots of pictures of just Ed from the phone which was weird so, I have just deleted them. Probably upload the others at some point!

In between everything else I have been doing I have been taken Norwegian lessons, but as per normal with most technical people I needed to work on my memory - remembering words seemed to be the hardest thing so I built my own multiple choice test system!

I based it around the books that I am learning from - Klar for Norge, so it was applicable to my lessons, but also they seemed like a good base to anyone learning. I then looked at off the shelf scripts but none of these matched up to what I wanted so I created the whole thing myself.

Obviously its scripted in PHP, and uses MySQL for the database of words. It basically pulls the words out of the database, randomises the order of the words, then build multiple questions from the words via the rand() function puts in the correct answer and then shuffles(). So there we have it, http://norsk.timc3.com a Norwegian test. I am still expanding the word list and I will probably break it up into categories at some point, but for now it gives me something to build on.
