Kahaani -Watched a Movie

Vidya Balan was superb. She is surely going to get another Best Actress award. Going to give Konkona Sen Sharma a run for her money. Saswata was also superb, especially in his new avatar. Well not so new, in fact his look remains more than less the same, but his role is shocking to say the least. Went straight to the French classes from there. Did the class and came straight home. Pretty tired, but sat on the computer and updated a couple of things in thecodepost.in and now I am writing this post here. Texted her twice but have got no reply. Apparently she has hit the bed, or may be putting on her 'unavailable' approach :) Anyway Good Night to her. Till then Good Night to you too. Oh and by the way I suggest you go through this video at least once, it's really fabulous. As for lifting my spirits I checked into this videos here : Enjoy!!!

An important day

Tomorrow is a really important day. I need to wake up really early today! I didn't notice this at first, but it's already the D-day. I have been highly excited about things. A lot of things crowd my mind right now, as I write this post. My other site, thecodepost.in  is looking nice. I have to make a real good excuse for waking up so early. I will go for a morning walk. Yeah, sounds lame, but will do, at least for tomorrow. The big day demands it. Today I watched this movie called Triangle. It was pretty good, but predictable, the cinematography was great though. Had some great time at a friend's house. As was returning home I dreamed of having my own ship or at least a small steamer in which I could travel far and wide. I would also certainly like to go further and may be travel to Hawaii. Who knows, if I want it truly deeply, I may just get it. Let's see what comes. As for now I need to go to sleep, so that I catch some sleep. I know I won't be getting much, but

When the paste dries!

My computer was working fine enough. All was going well for it. Suddenly it began to freeze without a warning. With the help of my friend I came to figure out the source of the problem - overheating of the CPU. Now there are a number of reasons that can trigger this particular problem. In my case the CPU was fine, so the culprit was most likely drying up of the heatsink compound that is present in between the CPU and the heatsink. These are actually conductor that transfer the excess heat of the CPU to the heatsink which dissipates the heat using the fans. So all I had to do was apply a fresh coat of heatsink compound to the CPU top and also on the heatsink surface and I was set. My machine was fixed and the CPU was cooled. Why does the paste dry up? Well, actually in dry conditions or due to prolonged use, the paste dries up reducing to powder, when it gives way leaving the heatsink separated from the CPU. So the CPU heats pretty fast and there is a risk of component overhea

Create Custom WPF Tab Control Easily

Join me on Google+ Windows Presentation Foundation (or WPF) is a computer-software graphical subsystem for rendering user interfaces in Windows-based applications. WPF, previously known as "Avalon", was initially released as part of .NET Framework 3.0 . Rather than relying on the older GDI subsystem, WPF utilizes DirectX . Creating a Tab Control in WPF is pretty simple. Let's get through the steps one by one. Create a new Project. I am using VB as my language, you may C# if you wish to. :) A WPF Application Project will do fine. I believe in clean coding. I wish to add a couple of controls to this solution. Instead of adding them to the root, I will right click the solution and click "Add Folder", rename as something like say "Cus Tab Controls". Add a WPF custom control, name it whatever you wish. This will be the tabItem header. Here goes the code. I just added a harmless Label, and a Button, which will act as the Close Tab button fo
