Two possibilities:

1. Your site is using a very old version of jQuery – 1.4.2 – when WordPress is now using 1.11.1. I don’t know if it’s a plug-in doing this or some hardcoding, but, for long-term sustainability, it probably makes sense to find what’s doing this and make sure you are running with the most recent version of jQuery supported by WordPress
2. Separate from finding the jQuery problem, it’s probably worth trying version 2 of the Rotating Tweets JavaScript via the Rotating Tweets options page.
3. I’ve also put some experimental code in the development version to see if this can be prevented by default with version 1 of the Rotating Tweets JavaScript.

Hope one of these helps.

PS: It’s still worth finding which plug-in or piece of code is writing:

<script type='text/javascript' src='http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js?ver=1.4.2'></script>

I’ve changed the script since the one you downloaded so you would need to download and install it again to solve the problem.

But I’ve found how you can fix this problem permanently.

Unfortunately, version of 1.6 of the Travel Blogger theme has some extremely poor coding in it – on lines 13 and 14 of /wp-content/themes/travel-blogger/lib/functions/layout.php where you need to comment out:

wp_deregister_script('jquery');
wp_register_script('jquery', ('http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js'), false, '1.4.2');

changing them to:

// wp_deregister_script('jquery');
// wp_register_script('jquery', ('http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js'), false, '1.4.2');

Alternatively, upgrade to the latest version 1.7.1 and it doesn’t have these lines in it.
