sportman1280 — Wed, 07 Apr 2010 22:18:21 +0000

I've been hard at work getting things squared away for the Greenbrier Cup this year. I am happy to release the entry forms and information sheet for the 2010 tournament. Check out the Greenbrier Cup page for the documents. Remember, this tournament is first come first serve. So the faster you book rooms and turn in the entry forms, the more likely you are to have a spot in the tournament!

2009-2010 Mid-Atlantic Tournament Series Rankings

In Fall 2009 I created a ranking spreadsheet for the purpose tracking the Tennis on Campus Mid-Atlantic Tournament Series. I created it for my team, but eventually other people found it useful. It was emailed out to different people, but I failed to publicly release it. The purpose of this post is to do just that, make a public release.

As a graduating senior, I can no longer be the president for WVU Club Tennis. Â This week, Jamie Hanna took over as the new president. Â This means that I also am no longer the webmaster, and as such can't maintain the old Greenbrier Cup page on the club's website. Â I am still the director for the event however and need access to maintain information and keep it updated. Â My solution for this was to move the tournament information here. Â Here I can maintain it as I wish, giving teams the most up-to-date information there is.

So, be sure to check out the new page. Â And check back soon, as I'll be posting more information on it such as pictures, forms, and fliers.

Its finally my last and final senior semester at WVU. Theres a lot I'll miss, but I also can't wait. With the new semester I'll be building some new projects this semester: gTour (CS 481) and an operating system (CS 450).

gTour: A Google Android application that will act as a tour guide, providing information about the sights around you. The project is using the Google Android SDK, which uses Java and XML.

MPX Operating System: Build a base operating system. This project will be written in C. More information about it will be posted about the project soon, as we have already completed the first part of the OS.

Frontline Fabrication is a fabrication shop in Morgantown, WV.Â It was started by Andrew Kisner in 2009.Â Recently, I have been working on getting a website built for them, with pictures, products, services, and more.

This week, we have added the ability to buy products from the website.Â This is a slow roll out of the products they offer, as we get more pictures and such. Â The first product is a 2G DSM RearÂ Differential. Â Keep an eye on the site, as we roll out the ability to order other products.

Tennis on Campus Counter – XML Style

sportman1280 — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 14:52:56 +0000

When I first started Tennis on Campus Counter, I put the scraped information into a comma separated for processing by the PHP scripts. This changed a few days ago however.

I recently dug deeper into the world of XML and started to think about how it could be of use to me. In the past I had always used XML for something someone else started. After I thought about it, I realized that TOC Counter was the perfect place for this. As such, I set about converting it to XML.

This ended up being a very simple process. The PHP parsing code is also now cleaner. Overall I was very impressed with how handy XML was.
