Article displays properly & video plays.  No problems.

Fedora 12.  Firefox 3.5.8-1.fc12.  Flash 10.0 r45 Alpha.  kernel 2.6.32.10-90.fc12.x86_64.  Everything 64-bit, including plugins, the list of which at first glance looks similar to yours, just all 64-bit.

>From a later response of yours, you said you're all 32-bit--OS, Firefox, plugins, etc.  Yes?  Then why do you have nspluginwrapper installed?  It's not needed.  nspluginwrapper is meant to run 32-bit plugins on 64-bit browsers.  You're all 32-bit.  Maybe, this is the problem.
