The Stetson Hatters' two-week vacation from outside competition will come to an end as the calendar turns to March.
The Hatters will play in three events, in three different cities, during the first week of the new month. The team will open a hectic week on Saturday at the Forest Hills Collegiate in Augusta, Ga. They'll follow up by playing in the Harmony Golf Preserve Intercollegiate March 3-5 before facing Illinois-Chicago in a dual match on March 7 in Sorrento, Fla.
The flurry of competition follows a grueling series of qualifying rounds for the team members.
"The team went thru 45 holes of qualifying to determine the final three spots for the six-man team," head coach Larry Watson said.
Three spots on the travel squad belong to junior co-captain Matt Taylor along with sophomores Dustin Dingus and David Torres. They were exempt from qualifying based on their individual performances at the Gary Freeman Invitational to open the spring season.
The three open spots went to sophomore Andrew Peterson along with freshmen Eliott Azoulay and Zach Stark.
"I was really glad to see Andrew make the traveling squad," Watson said. "Andrew started very strong last spring but then ran into some swing problems. He kept working hard on his swing and was rewarded by gaining the number four spot."
While only six members of the 11-man squad qualified to compete in Augusta and at Harmony Preserve, all 11 will compete in the match against Illinois-Chicago.
"I know some of the players on our team are disappointed not to have qualified, but that is part of golf and we all know it," Watson said. "We don't like to miss out but, for most of us, it makes us more determined and sends us back to the practice tee with renewed determination."
Watson said some of the players who missed the cut for the travel squad are working through similar issues as Peterson did.
"A few of our players are struggling with swing issues right now," Watson said. "That happens, but we will work that out. A couple of the boys just had one or two bad holes in a round. It hurts to be so close but miss. I know they will be right back out practicing tomorrow."
The Hatters leave Thursday for their trip to Augusta, Ga., where they will play 36 holes of competition on Saturday. The Forest Hills Collegiate is hosted by Georgia Regents University (formerly Augusta State College) and will include teams from the host school as well as Gardner-Webb, North Carolina Central, Northern Illinois, USC Upstate and Youngstown State.
The one-day event will be played at Forest Hills Golf Club, which was originally designed by Donald Ross in 1926 and redesigned by Arnold Palmer in 2004.
After playing 36 holes on Saturday, the Hatters will head straight to the Harmony Preserve Intercollegiate where they will play a practice round on Sunday before beginning that event on Monday with 36-holes of play. Other teams in the tournament are Florida Gulf Coast, Florida Atlantic, Villanova and Northwood. Live scoring for the tournament will be available on www.golfstat.com.
The Hatters will wrap up a busy week on Friday, March 7, with a one-day head-to-head match with Loyola of Chicago at the RedTail Golf Club in Sorrento, Fla.
"I am excited about the head-to-head match with Loyola of Chicago, because all the boys will play in that competition," Watson said. "This should give the entire team a boost as they'll be playing on one of their favorite Central Florida courses."

Enjoy More INDOOR Space During Your Outdoor Adventures
Brundage Snow Blog, News
October 10, 2012 by April
A More Spacious Lodge is just one of the improvements you'll enjoy during your next visit to Brundage Mountain.
This year, we're adding 1,000 square feet of heated indoor space to the third floor of the lodge. The changes will add a significant amount of seating space and ease congestion in the 3rd floor cafeteria.
This expansion comes just one season after a major remodel of the second floor of the lodge, which created 100 additional seats and transformed Smoky's Bar & Grill into a full-service restaurant with sit-down table service for adults in one area and all ages in another.
The combined changes are also improving traffic flow to the restrooms and creating options for even more improvements in the future.
A More Accurate Snowfall Picture
We're enhancing our webcam system to provide you with more overnight snowfall data than ever before. We're replicating our popular base-area 'snow cam' with a second one at the summit, so you can see every inch of snowfall for yourself.
We're also partnering with the professionals at www.snowforecast.com to give us a pin-point forecast tailored especially for Brundage Mountain's location and unique geographical features.
And, we're launching our own mobile app to put all of that information (and more) right at your fingertips, 24 hours a day. Stay tuned for more details!
A More Meaningful Connection
Here at Brundage Mountain, our guests mean everything to us. We're working hard to find new ways to connect with you and make sure your voices are heard. This season, you've got an amazing opportunity to learn about our past AND to help shape our future.
Learn About our Past: Brundage Mountain is proud to announce the release of a new history book: Brundage Mountain: The Best Snow in Idaho written by Idaho author, Eve Chandler. The book traces the colorful history of skiing in McCall with hundreds of vibrant photographs and heart-warming stories.
Perfect as a holiday gift, you can purchase the book on-line here.
Help Shape our Future: Last season, we launched a new program to connect with our guests and now we want to make sure no one is slipping through the cracks.
Our mountain ambassadors approached hundreds of guests to ask them for their e-mail address so they could take a short survey once they returned home.
We want you to know that we've read every single survey and taken your comments and suggestions to heart. This year, we're adding even more ambassadors to help us reach more of our visitors. Just look for the friendly folks in the yellow jackets and they'd be happy to sign you up. We want to hear from you!

Not gonna happen.
This is the pushback from Emma Watson, who has taken to Twitter to refute rumors that flamed up over this past weekend that she has been cast as the gorgeous but corruptible Anastasia Steele in the film adaptation of E L James's Fifty Shades of Gray.
"Who here actually thinks I would do 50 Shades of Gray as a movie? Like really. For real. In real life," Tweeted Watson of the erotic role.
The online hacking group Anonymous is reportedly to blame for fanning the erroneous casting news. It published online documents that said came from the internal server of the German Constantin Film studio, suggesting that Watson, 22, was up for the sexy role as lover to the fictional billionaire Christian Grey.
Even the book's author took to Twitter to shoot down the stories. "There have been no casting decisions made about Fifty Shades," Tweeted James.
Watson, who had been previously mentioned as a possible contender for the role, told EW.com last July that it was not on her plate. "I haven't read the book, I haven't read a script, nothing," she said.

trying to decide between a few women's boards.. advice?
Hey there! So I'm an intermediate rider and have been riding the same board for over 10 years..it finally self-destructed last weekend :(. I have been researching boards and have come up with a few, so I just wanted to get some opinions on these boards (pros/cons?) I'm just starting to get comfortable with small/medium jumps and popping over natural stuff on runs, and I want something that can maintain some speed but that is also pretty flexible that can handle uneven terrain and the occasional tree run. Here are the boards I'm looking at:
2. Burton Deja vu flying V
3. Never summer Infinity
4. Arbor Swoon
Any thoughts/feelings on these or other suggestions? I'm a little overwhelmed with all the options. Thanks so much!
Ehhh... Your #1 choice is a bombing board... I'm afraid you won't get much pop out of it. And its super aggressive to boot.
Your other choices might be a bit better for bouncing off stuff, but it really depends on how much pop you want out of your board. Less pop = more rocker (reverse camber), or just a more softer board.
Ok great thanks! that at least helps narrow it down a little, any idea how those other boards hold up with speed vs. pop? I'm trying to find something in between and the reviews i've read on those are kind of go both ways depending on what site you're reading

Consider gnu ladies choice
There's a few tricks to getting more pop or more stability out of your board. But it basically boils down to your weight and the size of the board... Longer boards are going to have less pop but more stability; shorter boards are going to have more pop. But if you have good weight control you can put your weight into your carves and get more stability.
And of course, if you want to go faster, try to find a board with a sintered base. It will hold more wax and of course make you go faster.
Might want to look at this board, I know a few people on here recommend it, and its pretty much good at everything: Ladies Choice – GNU.com EDIT: What ridinbend said. :P
thanks just looked into it that looks a lot better than the other gnu board
Haven't been on the C3BTX B Pro but have the C2BTX version. It's poppy enough for me and stable on landing the smaller stuff I do. Fun in the trees. It is on the stiffer side so it likes speed; however, when conditions are choppy I'll switch to my other (softer) board. Otherwise I'm fighting to not get tossed (east coast conditions).
Demoed a board recently that you may want to consider, the Launch Vice RC. This board was super fun; I really liked it. In uneven terrain where I'd want to dial it back with the B Pro, the Vice was pushable and stable. Did not take it into the trees as there are no glades at that hill, but it was fun through the bumps. I'm 120lbs and rode the 148 (the rep said ideally he'd put me on one size down from the 48).
Here's an excellent review 2014 Launch Vice RC Snowboard Used and Reviewed «
You'll have to explain that connection to me please.:icon_scratch:
ns infinity
hybrid rocker = more pop
I'm a fan of the Gnus; the Bpro…have demo'd and if were to buy another board it would be it or a billygoat c2 in the 156…really the billygoat and bpro are fairly similar…but slightly different as far as torsionally stiffness. I'm a guy with small feet and ride Baker….these board were designed for and at Baker. It is an aggressive, all mtn shred machine that will handle ice, pow, trees, blasting, natty and drops; and if you want a more aggressive board you have to start looking at men's boards that are stiffer.
BTW, pop has nothing to do with length…its about camber profile and stiffness. Added length and more stiff will add stability at bombing speeds. The Bpro c3 version will have a bit more pop than the c2…but both c2 and c3 are relatively lifeless…if you want pop…go with a full cambered board. A cambered board will also give your more stability for bombing but will be slightly less playful and less agile compared to a c2…and a c3 will split the difference between a cambered and a c2. I personally found that the c3 did not make that much difference vs c2 compared to a cambered stiffy. I regularly ride a billygoat c2 159 split and an old fully cambered stiff twin 155….and a bpro would fit right in the middle..c3 for more stability and stiffness and a c2 for more agility…splitting hairs.
Rank based on my demoing
Billygoat=hyper aggressive…but smallest size is a 156
Bpro=aggressive…largest size is a 155…so perhaps a smaller version
Lady choice=more playful but only comes in a c2
Roxy eminence and infinity were both too flexy/noodlily for my liking.
There are also narrow versions of probably similar boards in the Lib tech line you might want to check out.
Anyway have no idea where you ride or your stats…but if you want to progress…imho get a bpro; my billygoat has certainly forced me to progress. When you venture in to advance/expert…its really about skills…you can make anything work…but having the right tool that allows you to do what you want is the ticket….and the differences in the board design becomes a personal choice based on subtleties.

SYCAMORE - When you are triplets, you are bound to get mixed up by others.
Old Fort had that problem Thursday night with Mohawk's Adelsperger triplets.
Heck, the Adelspergers themselves had trouble keeping themselves straight.
Article Photos
Mohawk's Clara Adelsperger puts up a shot while being defended by Old Fort's Alli Adelsperger Thursday in Sycamore.
When Dan Weinandy did the pre-game introductions, he announced Kasey Adelsperger and it was Julie Adelsperger who sprinted off the bench.
It was the last of the confusion for the threesome as they and their teammates beat up Old Fort, 45-26, in Midland Athletic League action.
The trio combined for 36 points, 12 rebounds, seven steals, 10 assists and a block.
"We knew that Kasey Adelsperger, Julie Adelsperger, Clara Adelsperger are all good shooters and they're not the only ones. They have five or six girls shooting over 40 percent," Old Fort coach Jennifer Miller said.
It looked like it was going to be a blowout early on as Mohawk took a commanding 16-2 lead four and a half minutes into the game thanks to its swarming defense and size. Seven turnovers in that span led to 10 points for the Warriors (10-8, 5-4 MAL).
But the Stockaders (13-5, 4-2) mounted their own comeback, scoring 10 straight in the final two and a half minutes of the first quarter to make it, 16-12.
Mackenzie Ward, who led Old Fort with 10 points, scored a bucket 10 seconds into the second quarter to make it 16-14 but it was all downhill from there.
By the time Old Fort scored again, this time Ward making two free throws with 1:04 left in the quarter, Mohawk had run off 13 straight to lead 29-16.
"We just struggled to score (tonight) and when we've played the better half of our schedule, we've just struggled to score," Miller said. "We struggled to score and we struggled to have confidence."
Old Fort got it down to 11, 34-23, late in the third quarter but no closer the rest of the way.
"I think defensively, our kids played really well for almost the entire game," Mohawk coach Mike Beck said. "We had one brief start in the first quarter where we gave up some, but that was more off offensive turnovers and not getting our defense set up right away. Once we got our defense set, the two different zones that we played, I thought, were pretty effective."
Mohawk's size was a problem for Old Fort and not just on the glass, where the Warriors held a 28-15 advantage. It also mattered when it came to flustering the Old Fort shooters, as the Stockaders shot just 31 percent (9 for 29) from the field. Conversely, Mohawk was hitting at a 54 percent clip (19 for 35), aided in by scoring 23 points in transition.
"We talked about that we had that advantage. It makes quite a bit of difference when you're already bigger than them, taller and then you have the long reach so it's harder to shoot over," Beck said.
Miller was pleased with her team's defensive efforts.
"I'm not mad about our defense by any means. They only scored 45 points," Miller said. "Our press didn't work out in the very beginning of the game and we adjusted and dropped into the zone. When a team only scores 45 points and you force 24 turnovers, usually that's a game that you win, I feel like."
Both teams had 24 turnovers.
"Defensively, I thought the trapping was working really well," Beck said. "We got out of it because we were trying to decide if it was the defense or was it (our own) turnovers that led us to not get set up properly. They are very quick and very athletic off the dribble. There were spots at the end of the first quarter where they blew right by us. So that's why we went to the other zone (to slow them down)."
Kasey Adelsperger had 14 points, six rebounds and a block. Clara Adelsperger had 12 points and Julie Adelsperger had 10 points, six assists and four steals. Taylor McClain was held scoreless, but added six steals and six assists. Megan Cleveland had seven rebounds to pace Mohawk.
Jordan Magers scored eight points for Old Fort. Sam Hartsel had five rebounds to lead Old Fort.
Miller said her team is still growing and learning as it faces stiffer competition as the season goes on.
"What I told them tonight is when you go against teams that are equal or better than you, losing is not an absolute. It's all about your mentality going into the game. If you go in with your head down, shoulders down, you're already beat as soon as you walk on the floor," Miller said. "If you come in and take it at them. I mean, that's what you have to do. It doesn't matter who they are.
"That's something I learned in college playing against some really big girls. It doesn't matter who they are, you just have to take them at them," Miller said. "If you get the mentality to not be afraid to go against anybody, then good things come of it."

Religion creates some interesting contrasts with the idea that people should use their own reasoning abilities to determine their course in life. Let's take a look at a few issues briefly.
Faith: The very definition is that you stop using reasoning and instead believe in something or accept someone's word simply because they said so. An example: If I told you I could fly, I wouldn't have any proof to show you and instead would tell you that you have to have faith in me and believe it because I said so. Similarly, you have to have faith that a book written thousands of years ago was written and translated accurately, that the original authors were not lying, that they weren't tricked into seeing miracles in the way that street magicians can do in the modern world, and instead were really told by God that this is how you need to live your life.
You have to have faith that there is something after death, and that the particular religion you follow is the correct one, just as all of the other religions believe they are the correct one.
Knowing all of this, you can see how an educated and intelligent person has trouble believing that faith in an ancient religion is a good idea. Moreover, one can see why religion is fading in areas of the world with high standards of living and education, namely western Europe.
At the same time, faith has positive impacts on many people's lives. Sometimes when a person is going through a very difficult time in their life, and they have no one to help them, they ask for God's help. It's a desperate bargain with a higher power when it seems like life's burdens are too much to bear. Many people turn to religion because they believe that a prayer was answered by some sort of problem in their life getting resolved.
Faith also urges people to do good works and volunteer their time to help others. Whether they do this because they are hoping for a reward in the afterlife, or simply because it feels good, churches and those who believe in God volunteer a ton of their time and money to helping those less fortunate. Yet, many who don't believe also volunteer or donate, such as this company that donated a competition kettlebell to help benefit someone who got paralyzed while competing in a CrossFit competition.
In the end, whether you choose to have faith or not, a wise person once said: "Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones."

UNIVERSITY PARK - Fresh off a Big Ten regular-season title and a trip to the Sweet 16 last season, Penn State isn't getting too far ahead of itself just yet.
The Lions return four starters from last year's squad that finished 26-7, including All-Big Ten first-team selections Alex Bentley and Maggie Lucas, as well as Big Ten honorable mention choices Nikki Greene and Mia Nickson.
Coach Coquese Washington enters her sixth season at the helm.
Washington, a Flint, Mich. Native, interviewed for the job at Michigan in April, but reaffirmed her dedication to the Lions by signing a five-year contract extension in September worth about $3.5 million. Washington was absent from the Lions media day on Monday due to a family emergency, but assistant coach Kia Damon said the team isn't approaching this season any differently considering last year's success.
"We'll continue to get everyone's best shot," Damon said. "We need to be prepared for it and to be able to give them our best shot."
When asked what she hopes the Lions can achieve this season, Bentley took the generic approach.
"My expectations are to basically just achieve our team goals," said the point guard, who averaged 14.1 points per game last season. "I'm going to be happy with us getting better every day. Whatever it takes."
Bentley is one of five seniors on a roster that features just one freshman - 6-foot-6 center Candice Agee, a McDonald's High School All-American last season. Penn State also adds junior guard Dara Taylor, who transferred after two seasons at Maryland and was forced to sit out last season due to NCAA rules.
"I see myself as a leader of this team," Bentley said. "(Coach) always tells me the team goes as I go, and I truly do believe that. I feel like my teammates are very good at following my lead and listening."
Penn State opens its schedule Nov. 11 at home against Howard, and will be tested early with trips to Texas A&M and Connecticut before beginning Big Ten play in January.
As for now - as Bentley noted - the Lions are on the same page and focusing on their own abilities.
"We have our own expectations for the team," she said. "We don't let anybody set expectations for us. Right now, we just want to get better day to day and be playing our best basketball in March."

Oops, something didn't work.
Awesome. I was worried when I hadn't seen any real updates to Oxite in a while. That's great to know that yall are working on something even better! Going to download this now.
Yup, this is where we started to go with Oxite, but modular from day 1 (much better start). Let us know what you think after you try it out.
Thanks for Share sir,. I want to try it later,.,.
I worked on both Oxite and Orchard. The ALT.NET's loud screaming unfortunately did affect Orchard a LOT. With Oxite, we went back and fixed the parts up that made sense (not everything they complained about, but lots of it). It was our first MVC app, which I'll also throw out is STILL running sites just fine today despite "bad" programming practices. Orchard is the polar opposite and has used "good" programming practices from day 1. We'll see how it goes. Note, I am no longer on the Orchard team for my day job.
success for you sir
Good video share,.
"allow users to rapidly create content-driven Websites, and an extensibility framework that will allow developers and customizers to provide additional functionality through extensions and themes".
