Firefox 4 and the 3 finger swipe…
It’s been a LONG time since posting here! Maybe I’ll try to be a little more frequent in the new year.
So, here’s a geeky start…
In Firefox 4 Beta the three finger swipe on a Mac has been switched from scrolling to the top of a page to exiting panorama view. Today I figured out how to restore that option with a little bit of a twist.
Now to scroll to the top of a page I hold the “shift” key and do the three finger swipe. The default three finger swipe up still exits Panorama view.
Here’s how to do it:
Go to the address bar in Firefox and type about:config.
Say yes when it tells you that you can destroy the world by editing the file.
Add a new sting and call it: browser.gesture.swipe.up.shift
Set the value as: cmd_scrollTop
Save the changes and you are all done.

Our Vacation…
No Cell Phone, No Internet, and No Cable TV… It was a very nice week! I did something I have not done in a LONG time. Read. I finished “A Dog’s Purpose”, “Origin”, AND “Soul Identity”. All of them were great reads, especially Origin that was never even available in print. Thank you Amazon and Ebooks!
Here’s the pictures from our trip:

YO tini!
There is a cool new spot opening up soon on Great Neck Road (across from Marina Shores). It’s called YO tini’s Frozen Yogurt. Unlike some of the other places around the Hampton Roads area these people are focused on the healthy “dessert” alternatives. It should be open soon so keep an eye out for the area’s newest, “greenest” location for a tasty treat!
Or become a fan on facebook! The Facebook YO Tini Group

Mini & BMW Completely Suck!
Let me preface this… I totally slacked on the maintenance on our 2008 Mini Cooper S. I was a bad, bad, Mini owner! Our Mini hit 20,000 and had never had an oil change. I know, I know, 20000…. I am a complete dumba$$! Amber has been after me for a couple of weeks to get the car in for service. The driver side window was doing weird up/down things. The passenger side tweeter in the pillar was rattling and crackling. There was a weird electric motor buzzing noise coming from under the dash. The worst part was starting in cold weather, the car sounded like an OLD diesel! It would knock for the first few seconds after starting. I should have listened to Amber! Lesson learned! Read More…

RIR Crit 2010…
In the last post all I did was put up a slide show and link to the pictures from the race at Richmond International Raceway. So in this one I will say a little something. It was cold and windy, but what an awesome venue for a race. The racing appeared to be fast and with that speed comes some crashing! We arrived right as the Cat (Crash) 5 race finished up with nasty accident in the sprint for the finish. The crash required two people to be transported by ambulance. I also heard rumor of another crash later in the day. Me being the lazy individual that I have been this season didn’t race, but I did at least get some pictures, as can be seen in the last post.
The main reason for this post is a cool video posted by Bryan Vaughn of the last ten laps of the 1/2/3 race. Even cooler is seeing what the cyclists sees as the photographer is snapping shots….
