Really Microsoft? That's your solution? Turn off caching?

From MSDN:

File Requests to UNIX or Linux Server Return Wrong File or Error

If IIS must access files on a UNIX or Linux system, file name case sensitivity can be an issue unless Network File System (NFS) support is enabled in IIS.

UNIX and Linux both support mixed-case file names, and IIS fully supports requesting static files in a case-sensitive manner. An issue arises, however, when IIS makes a subsequent request for a file from its static file cache. Because all file names are converted to uppercase letters in the IIS cache, any request after the first request from the IIS static file cache might fail or return the wrong file.

To remedy this problem, disable the IIS static file cache so that all file requests are issued fresh, thereby retaining correct file name case. The static file cache can be disabled for individual virtual directories on Web sites, or globally for all sites.

IIS "fully supports" requesting static files in a case-sensitive manner, but caches them using only all uppercase filenames? That hardly sounds like case-sensitive static files are fully supported in any possible definition of fully or supported. It's like saying a serial killer is fully rehabilitated if he only murders you the second time you meet him.

Alien/Zombie Hybrid Discovered!

Evidential Footage

In addition to the traditional shambolic and the newer fast mover zombies, a new alien/zombie hybrid has been discovered.

See the footage for the horror.

Call of Duty 5 Zombie Mode

Apparently the new CoD game has an unlockable zombie mode. It's nice to see they are preparing the young for the upcoming zombie apocalypse with these simulators.

First Signs of the Zombie Apocalypse

This article from MSNBC tries to attribute the finding of eleven headless bodies to drug gangs, but the following makes it clear that something else is at work.

11 headless bodies found near Mexico graveyard

All the bodies had star signs and the letter Z tattooed on them, police sources said. A 12th beheaded body was found 50 miles away in a small town to the east of Merida

The Z tattoo is the best evidence for the truth here. Clearly, these were military research experiments, tattooed with the letter Z by the Army to designate them as part of the Zombie project. They escaped from the underground research facility in Mexico and had to be dealt with swiftly by removing their heads (often faster and less messy than destroying the brain, see "Shaun of the Dead" for more). Then, a cover story was created about drug gangs.

Fame. I has it.

Al Gore's Personal Energy Policy

Should a passionate environmentalist's home use 20 times the electricity of the average household? Al Gore's does.

From this article:

In the wake of becoming the most well-known global warming alarmist, Gore won an Oscar, a Grammy and the Nobel Peace Prize. In addition, Gore saw his personal wealth increase by an estimated $100 million thanks largely to speaking fees and investments related to global warming hysteria.

“Actions speak louder than words, and Gore’s actions prove that he views climate change not as a serious problem, but as a money-making opportunity,” Johnson said. “Gore is exploiting the public’s concern about the environment to line his pockets and enhance his profile.”
