A Glimpse of Serenity: My Kumbalangi Trip

Just stumbled upon this gem from my archives and it instantly transported me back to the tranquil backwaters of Kumbalangi. This shot was taken on a sunny Saturday, November 20, 2010, at around 12:38 PM. Can you believe it's been that long? Good old SAMSUNG GT-S8500 did a pretty decent job capturing the moment, even if it was "only" 1.9 MP!

This picture perfectly encapsulates the peaceful vibe of Kumbalangi. The row of vibrant green and golden palm trees standing tall along the water's edge, their reflections mirroring perfectly in the calm backwater, is just breathtaking. There's something so calming about the clear blue sky overhead, offering a beautiful contrast to the lush greenery below.

You can almost feel the gentle breeze rustling through the palm fronds, hear the distant chirping of birds, and smell the fresh, earthy scent of the water. It’s moments like these that make you appreciate the simple beauty of nature. Even that power line in the distance adds a touch of subtle realism, reminding us that even in paradise, there's a connection to the modern world.

Kumbalangi is truly a place where you can unwind and reconnect with nature. If you ever get the chance, I highly recommend visiting this beautiful village. It's an experience that stays with you long after you've left.

Redirecting to new window in c#

But the way redirection works makes it impossible to open a new window from server side. The common solution to this problem is to use java script's window.open statement at client side and then fetch the new URL into the new window. To me, this is totally unacceptable while I am writing server side code. So I decided to write some code to do this. But before writing, I googled for the same. I found a good solution for the problem. I would like to give proper credit to the author, who chose not to publish his/her name. As they say a code worth one thousand words, here is the code: ResponseHelper Class: The ResponseHelper class does all the magic. It adds a client side script to the response which opens the new window. Use this class in place of response class if you want to open new window. Yo...
