    OCUK founder Spie passes away

    Came back randomly after 2 years to find this is terrible news - my condolences to your family. I'm glad he had a good few years to enjoy the results of his hard work (I gather he did retire after selling the business). It goes to show, you never know what life will throw your way, so live every...

    Wireless router and repeater combination recommendations

    Absent a commercial grade mesh network (and absent eero or luma!), I'm looking to roll wifi out across a very, very old house with immensely thick walls. I can't use powerline as there are no less than three different loops in the house! The Netgear EX6120 seems highly recommended for the...

    Anyone with an Aeron or similar chair?

    I have a Herman Miller Embody, which I would highly recommend. Wouldn't bother with the Aeron - a lot has changed in 15 years (or more?) since it was first designed.

    Pans

    Why? Are you struggling with the stickiness/temperature control? http://oursavorylife.com/how-do-i-cook-in-a-stainless-steel-pan-without-food-sticking/ Stainless steel is one pan I know. You have to adjust, but once you get it, you won't look back! Thanks for the link, just what I needed.

    Pans

    I am struggling to find a simple guide as to what kinds of pan materials and coatings are best suited to what tasks. I am aware that stainless steel is ideal for browning, saute and deglazing, but not ideal for delicate food. I am aware that Teflon/non-stick is not suitable for high...

    Shooting at French Satirical Magazine

    Have you ever thought that: 1. Joe Muslim wanting to come out and complain have not been given the air time? 2. Christians are not expected to come out and complain about Anders Breivik massacring a load of kids? 3. Catholics didn't come out to complain about the IRA murdering in their...
