Maybe I'm obsessed...

...but the US has got serious trouble. I can't imagine what could happen if their economy takes a serious recession.

This site is a little bit sensational, but it communicates the reality of this one situation. Girl gets arrested (and her arm broken by the security) after dropping some cake in the school cafeteria.

The begin of Apple's (second) decline

Innovation is not limited to Apple. Hopefully Apple realizes that VERY soon.

Baby pictures

The value of a human life is truly found in the fact that every baby has countless shots taken of them when they are born. Even though every baby looks quite similar, they still are captured over and over again on film or in pixels. I think that translates into hope for our kind.

Americans are *really* in over their heads.

This happened while I was oblivious to world news in europe, but I had no idea the American gov't had gone this far.

From the 2006 Military Commissions Act signed by President George W Bush:

(g) Geneva Conventions Not Establishing Source of Rights- No alien unlawful enemy combatant subject to trial by military commission under this chapter may invoke the Geneva Conventions as a source of rights.

Great shit, that's scary. So while Tessa and I were in New York, and had been suspected terrorists, they could have arrested and detained us, with no access to a lawyer.

Use both integrated and forms-based authentication in OWA 2007

Exchange 2007 is an awesome product. I wanted to be able to use the automatic OWA login when a computer is logged into the domain with valid credentials, but have the ability to use forms-based login when you wanted to access another account that wasn't the currently logged in user. So:

(for 2007 site only, this might need to be done different in a mixed 07/03/5 env):

1. Create a new website (called FormsAuth in this example) in the IIS Manager on your Exchange box. (eg webmail.company.ca) This will be used for the forms-based login.
2. Create DNS A record for your new domain (and website)
3. Run in Exchange Management Shell-> New-OWAVirtualDirectory -OwaVersion:Exchange2007 -WebSiteName "FormsAuth"
4. Go into Exchange Management Console. Set owa (Default Web Site) to 'Integrated Windows Authentication' under the "Authentication" tab in properties.
5. Set owa (FormsAuth) to forms based login.

Now when you go to webmail.company.ca you will get the form login. If you go to the http://servername/owa it will log you in automatically.
