   A visit to Wired has reminded me how bad the website behaves.      
   The site is littered with video panels that insist on playing     
   automatically.  When I just want to read the article, and     
   scroll down or page-down to the next page, the screen re-    
   adjusts and goes to the TOP. It's as if the video content is     
   forcing the screen to reset until the video content is finished     
   at least one cycle.
