Windows Explorer Preview Font
Windows Explorer in Windows 7 has a Preview mode that will attempt to display the contents in a right pane of the currently selected file. It uses the current font size of the Notepad program. To turn on file preview you select the icon in the toolbar area just to the left of the Help icon. It is a small square divided into 3 rectangles.
Kristen’s 10u All-star season
Kristen wrapped up her baseball All Star season with a triple and double (:23) in their only win in the double elimination tournament. They only won 1 of 9 pool-play games which served to seed teams for the season ending tournament. The LT Rookie Cavs had to play the #1 seed being the #8 seed. The only game they won during pool play was against the only team that the #1 seed lost to during pool play! The Cavs only lost 4-6 to the #1 seed who ended up winning the tournament. The tournament was held at the beautiful Round Rock Youth fields near the Dell Diamond

High CPU Utilization and Threads
If you implement an infinite loop in a thread you may see 50% to 100% CPU utilization. This is because even though your thread may not be doing anything waiting for some event, you are still getting CPU slices unless you make a call to give up the CPU. This is easily done by calling a sleep function such as Thread.Sleep(5000) // milliseconds
LTYA Rookie (10u) Mets Win Post Season Tournament
The Cardinals beat us in the 2nd round but after defeating the Rays in the loser’s bracket, we faced the Cardinals in the championship game, won, and played them two hours later and beat them decisively 19-7 to win the tournament.
David vs JR
This is a video I made from a 1 on 1 XBOX Halo 3 cage match between David and a friend. I had recently watched the movie Inside Man with Clive Owen where the song Chaiyya Chaiyya was featured. I liked the song and knew I’d find a video to use it in.
Could not find any resources appropriate for the specified culture
The problem is when you try to declare a class, enum or anything else before you declare the main form class then it generates runtime error because the resource manifest point to an incorrect location.
Kristen’s Breakout game. No turning back now.
Kristen shoots 63% to score 30 of her team’s 38 points. For the first time she drives to the basket, and sinks several shots from the outside. This was her first time playing organized basketball. Every team had 1 or 2 HotShot players. She did not make the HotShots team.

DataGridView
I’ve been working a lot lately with the DataGridView. One instance of a DataGridView would refuse to be editable even though I checked all the relevant settings (Enabled, EditMode, ReadOnly, RowTemplate.ReadOnly, Columns.ReadOnly). I had previously missed the RowTemplate.ReadOnly setting and had it working once I set it to false, but then it stopped working again. I found that removing the set property for the data members that were specified in the Column Properties DataPropertyName value, was the reason it stopped working. Kinda makes sense but I wish there was better feedback from VisualStudio to alert me of the mismatched settings.
