Today I installed a small application on the Mac to replace Apple's default key behavior with that of every other windowing system ever. (That’s right, nitpickers. Ever.)
First I remapped the keys as shown in the here. Then I downloaded this app which fixed Firefox 3's default behavior as well.
Now that my Mac is behaving properly, it is much easier to use.

Make it simple
There is a website that sells cinnamon rolls wrapped in bacon.
It's perfect for those people who can't decide if they want to die from diabetes or a heart attack.

Funny: California Confession
California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger recently said that in the 1970s he smoked marijuana.
Apparently, Arnold got so stoned that you could understand every word he was saying.

Safety Study
A study says the U.S. is dangerously vulnerable to attack by chemicals, biological warfare or nuclear devices.
It's hard to believe that taking off our shoes at airports for all this time hasn't made us any safer.

Recall issued for the iPhone 3G Power Adapter
I find it kind of funny that Apple had to issue a recall for the iPhone 3G power adapter. If you didn't know it has been recalled, now you know. Originally I had thought that Apple may have rushed the iPhone 3G. Turns out they rushed the power adapter.
Here are the complete details from Apple:
Apple has determined that under certain conditions the new ultracompact Apple USB power adapter's metal prongs can break off and remain in a power outlet, creating a risk of electric shock. We have received reports of detached blades involving a very small percentage of the adapters sold, but no injuries have been reported.
The ultracompact USB power adapters were supplied with every iPhone 3G sold in the following countries, and may also have been purchased separately as an accessory
- US
- Japan
- Canada
- Mexico
- Several Latin American countries (click here for a detailed list of countries)
Note: Apple USB power adapters supplied with original iPhones or supplied with iPhone 3G units sold in other countries are not affected.
Customer safety is always Apple's top priority, and therefore we have voluntarily decided to exchange every ultracompact power adapter for a new, redesigned adapter, free of charge.
Users with ultracompact power adapters should immediately stop using them until they exchange them for a new, redesigned ultracompact adapter.
In the meantime, they should charge their iPhone 3G by connecting it to their computer with the USB cable that came with their iPhone or by using a standard-sized Apple USB Power Adapter (with fold up prongs) or with a third party adapter designed to work with the iPhone, such as a car charger.
Identifying your adapter
If you purchased an iPhone 3G in any of the countries listed above, you received the ultracompact USB adapter.
Compare your USB power adapter to the pictures below. If it matches, we will provide a replacement adapter in exchange for your current one.
If you have purchased this ultracompact adapter as a standalone accessory, you may also exchange it for a new one. Replacement adapters have a single green dot on the bottom, like this:

Guess who came "over" this weekend
This weekend was the Abbotsford International Airshow. We actually saw these jets flying over our house on Thursday. Saturday was cloudy and raining, but Friday and Sunday were both nice days.

Guess what I saw in Beijing
It's not every trip to PEK that we get to see blue sky. On my walkaround I noticed this unusual weather phenomenon known in the western world as "nice weather" so I went back to the flight deck to grab my camera and record the event.
