It's a jQuery celebre-YAY-tion as the team greets the release of jQuery 1.4 by catching you up on a couple of the last-minute goodies. Adam gives us a tour of the upcoming jQuery UI 1.8 release, Rebecca makes a 1.4 .bind() faux pas and is duly mocked, Paul fawns over all the fun to be had with native CSS effects, and Alex catches us up on some Papa Crockford-related ECMA 5 news. Plus, beginner's corner and antipattern goodness -- after two weeks without us, you won't want to miss it!
