2010.03.06 Plattsburgh State falls to Oswego in SUNYAC ChampionshipIn the State University of New York Athletic Conference (SUNYAC), it is safe to say the Plattsburgh/Oswego rivalry is one of the most hotly contested battles. With the conference title on the line, both teams were looking to bring their best performance to the ice.
Of the two, Oswego was prepared and ready to do battle. Plattsburgh, on the other hand, was in for a rough night.

Plattsburgh Advances to SUNYAC Championship with 5-2 Win Over Brockport
Saturday, February 27, 2010 at 9:28PM 
2010.02.27 SUNYAC Semifinal - Plattsburgh vs BrockportWith the regular season over with, the Plattsburgh State Cardinals were looking to continue their post season run to earn a shot at the State University of New York Athletic Conference (SUNYAC) championship. Brockport had a fighting chance against Plattsburgh tonight. However, if history was any indication it would be Plattsburgh's game to lose.
Brockport was ready for action - with highly regarded senior goaltender Todd Sheridan in net. Some regard him as one of the finest goaltenders in the conference. Some say he is a force to be reckoned with. Yes, perhaps he is one of the finer goaltenders in the conference. Big deal. I say there is only one word to describe Sheridan in net...

Will Google Buzz be a contender in the social media arena?Admittedly, it is with some trepidation that I slide into the world of Google Buzz. Why? I don't really know. At the moment, I have a pretty full social networking arsenal at my disposal. I have a LinkedIn account which I am looking at breathing new life into. I use Facebook and Twitter religiously. And lastly, I have my own personal space courtesy of this blog.
The last thing I want to do is join another social networking space...but I'm willing to make an exception here.

Plattsburgh Shuts Down Fredonia in Solid 4-1 Victory
Saturday, February 13, 2010 at 10:12PM 
2010.02.13 - Plattsburgh battles Fredonia in final regular season gameTonight's game demonstrated why the Plattsburgh State Cardinals are one of the top teams in NCAA Division III men's ice hockey.
First, I have to give Cardinal goaltender Josh Leis some serious props for tonight's performance. In addition to providing rock solid goaltending all night long, he kept the Blue Devils at bay with several huge saves. Leis delivered when he was called upon; confidently stopping and controlling shots throughout the night.
This confidence seemed to permeate throughout the entire team.

For the rest of the world...NBC has a great site - "Mobile Olympics To Go" - which is sure to be a great starting point for mobile coverage.

Plattsburgh Sends Buffalo State Home With 4-2 Loss
Friday, February 12, 2010 at 9:50PM 
2010.02.12 Plattsburgh squares off against Buffalo StateTonight's NCAA Division III matchup between Plattsburgh State and Buffalo State had all the makings of a very physical and demanding battle. With Buffalo State averaging eighteen (18) minutes or so in the penalty box per game - and the recent disqualification from post-season play - all indications were that the 6-15-1 Bengals would be out for blood.

2010.02.06 Plattsburgh and Morrisville face-off at the StaffordIf anything can be said about tonight's matchup between the Plattsburgh State Cardinals and Morrisville Mustangs, it would be thank goodness it's over. To add insult to injury, Plattsburgh's scorekeeping woes continued - with the new scoreboards darkened and the goal judges relegated to waving third-rate red flags.
Anyway, back to the game. First, let me recant something I said earlier in the season. Prior to tonight, I viewed Morrisville as a team that played a physical game but could be quite a surprise when it counted most. I take that back.

Five Suggested Resources for the Aspiring iPhone Developer
Friday, February 5, 2010 at 9:11PM I am impressed at how much fun it is to develop and tinker with apps for the iPhone. With the recent announcement of the iPad - and the millions of iPhone and iPod Touch devices that are out there - there is no better time than now to just jump right in and see where the road may lead you.
One of the questions I am asked constantly is, "How can I get started in iPhone development?"

The iPad: A Few Steps Forward Or A Few Steps Back?
Tuesday, February 2, 2010 at 7:42PM
2010.01.27 - Steve Jobs Introduces the Apple iPad
For many of the Apple devout, the official announcement of the new Apple iPad is a moment which will live in infamy (sorry President Roosevelt; I couldn't resist the reference). Over the past week, we have seen the tech pundits weigh in on their impressions of the new device, as well as the general public who seems utterly befuddled.
What is the iPad, exactly? As Steve prepared to unleash and share his latest creation with us, I waited with great anticipation. I reflected back upon the original iPhone announcement - where I was practically foaming at the mouth and wanting to write a check immediately to the Church of Apple and AT&T to get my hot little hands on one.

Plattsburgh Rolls Past Skidmore 9-3
Tuesday, January 12, 2010 at 9:37PM Tonight, the Plattsburgh State Cardinals were ready to return to home ice and put their recent away games behind them. They endured a humbling 4-1 loss at rival Norwich on Tuesday, January 5th and came back late in the game to leave Elmira tied 1-1 on Saturday, January 9th.
It didn't take long for the Cards to find their groove.

Helpful Tip: Start Off The New Year By Organizing Your Files
Sunday, January 3, 2010 at 3:26PM 
Blaazzzhhhuuuuuu! OK, ok...that was my poor attempt at blowing a virtual horn to ring in the new year - but you get the idea. This is the perfect opportunity to start anew.
If you are like me, chances are you have a lot of files stored on your computer. Why not kick off the new year by starting with a clean slate and organizing this mess? I would suggest creating a folder labeled "_Archive" in your Documents area. You can use this folder to store all of the files/folders you created.
Simply drag and drop all of the files you've saved/created under your Documents area into this folder. Once you have moved all of your creations to this folder, you can then weed through your files and see what you really need to work with. Move the files/folders that you use the most back under your Documents area; and leave the rest in the archive. Eventually, you will go through your personal archive and see what files you need quick access to, what files you want to keep, and what files you no longer need.
Example of a finished reorganizationIn my example, you can see there are lots of folders and files located under my "_Archive" folder. Anything that I am currently using or working on was moved back under the original Documents folder.
After an hour's work, I managed to reclaim approximately twenty-plus gigabytes (20+ GB) of storage space, identify files I truly wanted/needed to retain, and found a bunch of files that I would never use from today forward.
For extra credit, how about uninstalling/removing those applications you no longer use? I found a number of applications that I had no intention of using again - so why clutter the hard drive?
Did you find this tip useful? Please leave your feedback (or contact me) if you'd like to see more tips like these - or if you have a question of your own.

One of my favorite parks to visit is Macomb State Park - a park that just so happens to be on Governor Paterson's list of ones that are proposed to be shut down (which includes the closure of 41 parks and 14 historic sites, and service reductions at 23 parks and 1 historic site) courtesy of the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation (OPRHP), Governor David Paterson, and Commissioner Carol Ash.
