Sancha’s Cause (Is Coming To Town)
Announcing my directorial debut behind the camera, again written by Christopher Heatherington and Sherri Dahl. I have directed for stage on several occasions, and this was a very different experience. A film director has very little control by comparison. In this case, the actors and camera tell the story. Framing the scene is critical. Also,Continue reading Sancha’s Cause (Is Coming To Town)
Defensive SSL security in Windows and IIS
In my previous post, I wrote about how SSLMate has made my life easier. I also mentioned how SSL-based attacks like POODLE and Heartbleed have forced us into using TLS. Which is all very well, except that Microsoft’s whole premise in their product line is backward compatibility. This means that a lot of older securityContinue reading Defensive SSL security in Windows and IIS
SSLMate and IIS – a love story

Look out for it in the coming months! Watch the full short film on YouTube.

The Great and Powerful Tim* took to the stage yesterday to tell us about shiny glass and metal things that are coming. On the one hand, I’m in the camp of slavering desire, wanting the shiny iPad Pro, the Apple TV, the new phone, and new watch straps. Let’s face it: I’m firmly their targetContinue reading iSad
First Feature Film Credit!
It’s a big deal for me. My role as Peter in the film Imitative Magic is up on IMDb. I’m coincidentally hosting the screening of the movie at my house in two weeks. This is very exciting. I have maybe four or five minutes of screen time, but that makes me incredibly happy.
