WASHINGTON — The Frostburg State University College of Business is joining a national effort to decrease student binge drinking on Thursday nights by increasing the number of classes held on Fridays.
Ahmad Tootoonchi, professor and dean at the Frostburg College of Business, has been working to increase the number of Friday classes within the College of Business since he learned they were helpful to preventing binge drinking on Thursdays, he said.
Tootoonchi developed the idea after Brandon Busteed, founder and president of Outside the Classroom — now EverFi — gave a presentation at Frostburg on student drinking habits about two years ago, he said.
"It was from his presentation that I learned the benefit of Friday classes," Tootoonchi said.
The presentation was a part of EverFi's alcohol prevention coalition, where representatives speak to college campuses and provide them with information on how to decrease student drinking, said Helen Stubbs, EverFi's vice president of higher education. The company also has a course, AlcoholEdu, to teach students how to drink responsibly and make them "aware of dangers beforehand," she said.
The presentation explained the risks involved with drinking on college campuses, and argued that students with no Friday classes drank twice as much on Thursday nights than students who were enrolled in early Friday classes.
"Essentially, it gives students the chance to extend their weekend — extend their high risk behavior — another day," Stubbs said.
Alcohol and binge drinking is prevalent on college campuses — 81 percent of college students report they have tried alcohol, 68 percent say they have been drunk and 36 percent reveal they have binged on alcohol, according to a 2011 Monitoring the Future study.
Binge drinking is when a person drinks enough within two hours to raise their blood alcohol concentration to .08, according to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, which is after about four drinks for women and five drinks for men.
Busteed's visit to Frostburg inspired Tootoonchi to change the college's course schedule.
"I made that my goal to work with department chairs and faculty members in the school of business to create more Friday classes," he said. "As soon as they found out that, yes, Friday classes matter in terms of helping student drinking problems, they all agreed to do so."
The number of Friday classes at Frostburg's College of Business has increased from 12 in 2009 to 47 in 2012.
Other universities including Syracuse University, Duke University and Clark University in Worcester, Mass., have also increased Friday morning classes to curb binge drinking on Thursday nights, the New York Times reported.
Tootoonchi conducted an independent survey of Frostburg business students and found that there is some correlation between Friday morning classes and alcohol consumption on Thursday nights.
However, business students Annie Warnick and Cody Morton both typically have calm Thursday nights.
Warnick is now working toward her master's but had two or three classes on Fridays while earning her bachelor's at Frostburg and "didn't do anything crazy," she said.
Morton, a senior business major with three classes on Friday, does not go out much on Thursday nights, but his 10 a.m. Friday class is not the sole motivator, he said, because he would probably "be inside anyway."
The business students' Friday morning classes are a blueprint for the rest of the university to follow, according to the school's President Jonathan Gibralter.
"Something as specific as increasing the number of Friday classes can have a major impact on our ability to retain students who may leave Frostburg due to poor grades or other issues that are related to excessive alcohol consumption," Gibralter said during fall convocation. "In short, if more faculty would consider taking action on this, it could prove to be a powerful retention strategy for FSU, and enhance our overall educational experience."
The university now is considering expanding the experience by increasing Friday morning classes across the campus.
"What we're really targeting now is fall 2013," Associate Dean of Students Jeff Graham said. "We'd like to see a 10 percent increase in the number of Friday classes being offered."
The College of Business has blazed a trail for the rest of the university to follow.
"All of our colleges are looking at ways to schedule more Friday classes," Frostburg spokeswoman Becca Ram-spott said. "The College of Business has been the first to step up and do that in a response to high risk drinking."
The opposing idea of campuses eliminating Friday classes was briefly mentioned at a Board of Regents meeting for the University System of Maryland, but that idea is not on the radar of Frostburg faculty.
Faculty members favor increasing Friday morning classes, but Tootoonchi doesn't expect students to feel the same way.
"Naturally, we are assuming they would not like to have Friday classes, especially Friday classes with instructors who schedule meaningful activities such as exams, quizzes (and) group discussion with points," he said. But the main goal is "to reduce the alcohol abused as much as we could possibly do, and by doing this our ultimate goal was to improve their overall well-being and their academic performance."

Topic: Invasive Plants, Seeds and Seeding, Shade Tolerant, Grasses or Grass-like
Title: Nimblewill grass for a shady area in Dallas
Answered by: Barbara Medford
Follow this link, Muhlenbergia schreberi (Nimblewill), to our webpage on that plant to learn its growing conditions. According to this USDA Plant Profile Map, it is native to Texas but not to Dallas County. According to both our webpage and other references this plant needs a moist soil, which does not sound like drought resistant to us. Furthermore, in several of the references it was referred to as a weed and accused of invasiveness. If you decide you want to try it anyway, go to our National Suppliers Directory in the "Enter Search Location" box and click GO. You will get a list of native plant nurseries, seed companies and consultants in your general area. All have contact information, so you can find out if they carry what you need before you start out to shop.
Here is an article from Pennsylvania State University that refers to nimblewill as a weed. More and more, we are recommending other ways than lawn grass to deal with dry or shady areas. If you are interested, you might read some of these previous Mr. Smarty Plants answers:

By Sarah Marloff, 8:25AM, Thu. Nov. 7, 2013
Craving a clothing fix, but already feeling the dreaded holiday season cash shortage? Check out today's Omnigender Clothing Swap at Zilker Park.
So drag your glutious maximus out of bed, cut out of work, ditch the unemployment line, stiff the temp gig, put down that taco, dig out those clothes you hardly remember owning (let alone wearing), and make your way over to Zilker Park to the hillside north of the parking area for Barton Springs.
Because… you know, THIS:
The nice person hosting the event is commandeering a few picnic tables just above Barton Springs Pool. Visions of fashion overhaul dance in our heads. Count on music, queers, and asymmetrical haircuts filtering in and out, noon-3pm.
Bring clothing to swap, and it's only $3. Or you may throw down $5 just to shop. Everything left over will be donated to Treasure City Thrift.

NVIDIA Publishes 195.xx Linux Driver Beta
Published on 03 February 2010 09:02 PM EST
Written by
Michael Larabel
20 Comments
NVIDIA has been
at work on the 195.xx driver series
for some months already and has delivered beta releases to the public that offer
VDPAU improvements and new features
along with
faster X Render performance
. This evening they have published a new beta driver for the public, this time it's 195.36.03.
The NVIDIA 195.36.03 driver for Linux (and FreeBSD and OpenSolaris) fixes a system hang for GeForce 6/7 series graphics cards, a workaround for a notebook bug with invalid EDID, the maximum number of slices supported by VDPAU for MPEG-2 streams has been increased, unofficial preliminary support for xorg-server video driver ABI version 7, and the soname of libvdpau_nvidia.so.1 and libvdpau_trace.so have been fixed.
X Server 1.8
hasn't even been released and it won't be for nearly two months, but this hasn't stopped NVIDIA from providing preliminary support for this major update. This is coming as AMD still has yet to deliver support for X Server 1.7, which was released last October, and they only just recently delivered support for the Linux 2.6.32 kernel.
The official change-log with Linux x86/x86_64 download links for the NVIDIA 195.36.03 driver can be found at

Tsunami-swept Harley in container found in Canada
TOKYO — It must have been a wild ride. Japanese media say a Harley-Davidson motorcycle lost in last year's tsunami has washed up on a Canadian island about 6,400 kilometers (4,000 miles) away.
The rusted bike was found in a large white container where its owner, Ikuo Yokoyama, had kept it. He was located through the license plate number, Fuji TV reported Wednesday.
"This is unmistakably mine. It's miraculous," Yokoyama told Nippon TV when shown photos of the motorcycle.
Yokoyama lost three members of his family in the March 11, 2011, tsunami, and is now living in temporary housing in Miyagi prefecture (state).
The motorcycle is among the first items lost in the tsunami to reach the west coast of North America. In March, an Alaska man found a football and later a volleyball from Japan; their owners were located last week using names that had been inscribed on the balls.
Canadian Peter Mark, who found the bike and its container, told Fuji that he "couldn't believe that something like that would make it across the Pacific." The report said he found it April 18 on Graham Island, off the coast of British Columbia.
The motorcyle was caked with "a lot of corrosion, a lot of rust," said Mark.
When he saw the Japanese license plate, Mark wondered if it might have drifted from Japan after the tsunami, and contacted a local TV station.
The Fuji report said the motorcycle would be shipped back to Japan, and that the shop that sold it to Yokoyama would help with paperwork and storage.
Debris from the tsunami initially gathered in the ocean off Japan's northeastern coast and has since spread out across the Pacific. In February, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said currents would carry much of the debris to the coasts of Alaska, Canada, Washington and Oregon between March 2013 and 2014, though they correctly predicted that some of it could arrive this year.
Last month, a U.S. Coast Guard cutter fired on and sank a fishing boat in the Gulf of Alaska that had drifted from Japan after the disaster. Authorities had deemed the ship a hazard to shipping and to the coastline.

Tamara Beckwith: Beer's bad for my bottom - and I'd put my daughter on a diet at age seven if she's fat
As she becomes a pub landlady, the former It girl tells Rosamund Urwin about motherhood as an ex-wild child, surviving in the public eye and why Made in Chelsea is so false
Related Articles
Published: 19 April 2012
Tamara Beckwith is an unlikely pub landlady. The It girl-turned-gallery owner doesn't drink beer, can't pull a pint and admits pubs are not her natural habitat. "I've never been a regular [anywhere]," she says, in her husky but poshly clipped voice. "Beer doesn't really agree with me, and it's very bad for girls' bottoms — it is ginormous for the bottom."
Yet that unbroadened-by-beer-bottom is sitting in The Imperial Arms on King's Road — the Victorian pub that she and her former agent Ghislain Pascal have just invested in. And minutes earlier, it was perched on the bar as the photographer snapped away and Pascal teased: "It's not Hooters!"
So why has she poured her money and promotional powers into a pub? "Ghislain took advantage of my nice nature," Beckwith jokes. "To be frank, I wouldn't have thought of going into the pub business if it wasn't for him. But we needed another space [to show photographs]: our gallery, though gorgeous, is very bijou."
At 42, Beckwith still looks like a Badass Barbie, little changed from the twentysomething who made party-going her profession in the Nineties and whose boyfriends included Sylvester Stallone, Charlie Sheen and Sharon Stone's brother, Michael — a former cocaine dealer.
Back then, she was famous for being rich (her father is property tycoon Peter Beckwith), good-looking and on every guest list, but she has spent the past four years recasting herself as a businesswoman. Her main focus — apart from her two daughters, 25-year-old Anouska and three-year-old Violet — is The Little Black Gallery, a photography space she and Pascal opened almost four years ago, but she also writes and is a contributing editor for her friend Caroline Stanbury's luxury shopping business, Gift-Library.
Investing in a pub — when they are closing at a rate of two a week — still seems a brave move, though. But the pair, alongside owners Iain and Amelia Heggie, have a fresh take on the local boozer: theirs will sell street food from the popular collective Eat St, rather than the now common gastropub fare.
So will she ever get to pull a pint? "I am sure on the relaunch night I will be allowed to but I don't know if they think I'd be very good. There's nothing worse than watching someone who is hesitant. I don't know if any of my friends drink pints, either — pints of vodka maybe, not pints of Foster's."
Ah, those friends, who are testament to Beckwith's hard-partying years, which started when she was a teenager. Her adolescent metamorphosis turned her into the archetypal parental nightmare: getting into trouble at Cheltenham Ladies' College for her hair and then — rather more significantly — getting pregnant at 16 by her American boyfriend William Gerhauser.
Beckwith's parents helped raise the baby girl, Anouska, and Beckwith was later arrested for drink-driving. Though open about her mistakes, she is clearly well versed in batting away awkward questions.
She stresses particularly how grateful she is to her parents: "If you have a good family and you're really in the shit, you know if you go home it will be all right in the end. Even when I've done stupid things and they probably want to throw me off a bridge, luckily they haven't."
Anouska, who is now 25, has criticised her mother, though. In an interview last year, she accused Beckwith of partying hard when she was young and said most of her childhood memories are of her grandparents.
The deflection machine here comes into full swing: "How I remember it and how she remembers it are two totally different stories ... Anouska is a Pisces, so if she is asked a question, she will answer. And she also doesn't have the experience of doing so many interviews. Luckily, she's got a very understanding and sweet and kind, compassionate mother."
Beckwith maintains that she is close to Anouska, who is now studying photography in Paris: "She calls me at least three times a day — we're probably a bit too close because she doesn't have a lovely dad like my little one does so if she's feeling a bit pissed off with life, I'm the punching bag."
The "lovely Dad" to Violet ("Vivi") is Giorgio Veroni, an Italian property magnate whom Beckwith married in 2007. They met at a party in 1994 (he had brought Sheherazade Goldsmith as a date, Beckwith had turned up with a "dodgy boyfriend") and were friends for years before they became a couple. He is often credited with helping turn her from socialite to responsible mother but Beckwith jokes that he preferred her as she was before. "I think I am almost too settled now — I think he wishes he could have me back to how I was before! Giorgio is the light of every party."
He has, though, brought her closer to religion. Even though Beckwith has no plans to convert, they married in a Catholic service in Italy, Vivi is being brought up Catholic, and the trio attend mass at the Oratory, where their priest Father Ronald is "like family — he texts me".
Of her daughters, it is Vivi who seems more likely to follow in her mother's footsteps. "Anouska doesn't like being in trouble, [whereas] I didn't care as long as the fun outweighed the trouble. I have a feeling Vivi is much more like that — she has got a much more wild personality ... she is 10 foot tall and bulletproof because everything revolves around her in our house."
Given their place in the public eye, Beckwith is especially concerned that Vivi will feel pressure over her appearance and weight growing up. "Her nonna [grandmother] was freaking out recently, because Vivi's really skinny [whereas] when she was born she was like a Buddha... I don't want to make her think she has got to eat everything, because then at seven or eight, when her real weight will come along, I don't want to have to put her on a diet."
Beckwith is thick-skinned about such scrutiny herself, though. "I think I've always quite liked having lots of attention whether it's good or bad. If I got upset every time someone said something horrible, I'd just be in a clinic somewhere shivering."
That said, she believes the British commit reverse-snobbery when it comes to the privileged. "In England, they automatically assume you have your head in the clouds and that you're going to be a bitch and that you're spoilt and spend all your days having manicures and pedicures. I wouldn't ever want to live that life, even if I could."
But a group of those who do want their lives to look that way — the Made in Chelsea cast — have been known to hang out at The Imperial Arms. Does she consider today's reality TV stars the heirs to the It girls?
"If you look back, when I was probably 14 or 15, you had the page 3 girls," she recalls. "It's just whoever the boys and girls of the moment are."
Hugo Taylor, who created the Made in Chelsea show, is her daughter Anouska's ex, but Beckwith doesn't think much of the series or the cast, calling Caggie Dunlop "the prettiest" but branding cast member Millie Mackintosh "so insipid".
"I prefer the Liverpudlian one [Desperate Scousewives] where I don't understand a word," Beckwith says. "When you look at them [the Made in Chelsea cast] — other than Hugo — they're not the kids you see in the King's Road because... the kids who are really friends with Beatrice and Eugenie can't talk about them. And all of the houses aren't their houses — they are all outside Eaton Square. Well, I live round there and I've never seen any of living there." If she does become a regular in her own pub, though, that might be about to change.
The Imperial Arms is at 577 King's Road, SW6; theimperialarms.com

Oscars 2013: Anne Hathaway, Christoph Waltz win Supporting Actors

Anne Hathaway has gone from propping up leaden sidekick James Franco at the Academy Awards to hefting a golden statue of her own with a Supporting-Actress Oscar win as a doomed mother-turned-prostitute in the musical Les Miserables.
Christoph Waltz won his second supporting-actor Oscar for a Tarantino film, this time as a genteel bounty hunter in the slave-revenge saga Django Unchained.
Anne Hathaway, whose perkiness helped carry her and the listless Franco through an ill-starred stint as Oscar hosts two years ago, is the third performer in a musical to win supporting actress during the genre's resurgence in the last decade.
"It came true," said Anne Hathaway, who joins 2002 supporting-actress winner Catherine Zeta-Jones for "Chicago" and 2006 recipient Jennifer Hudson for "Dreamgirls." Hathaway had warm thanks for Les Miz co-star Hugh Jackman, with whom she once sang a duet at the Oscars when he was the show's host.
Anne Hathaway's Oscar came for her role as noble but fallen Fantine in the big-screen adaptation of the Broadway smash that was based on Victor Hugo's epic novel of revolution, romance and redemption in 19th century France.
In a choked voice, Waltz offered thanks to his character and "to his creator and the creator of his awe-inspiring world, Quentin Tarantino."
Waltz also offered gracious thanks to his supporting-actor competitors, who included two-time Oscar winner Robert De Niro and Oscar recipient Tommy Lee Jones, who had been considered a slim favorite over Waltz for the prize.
A veteran performer in Germany and his native Austria, Waltz had been a virtual unknown in Hollywood when Tarantino cast him as a gleefully evil Nazi in 2009's Inglourious Basterds, which won him his first Oscar.
Christoph Waltz has since done a handful of other Hollywood movies, but it's Tarantino who has given him his two choicest roles. Backstage, Waltz had a simple explanation for why the collaboration works.

Report: TSA dropping proposal to allow small knives
Published On: Jun 05 2013 01:48:36 PM CDT

The head of the Transportation Security Administration told The Associated Press that he's dropping a proposal to let airline passengers carry small knives, bats and other sports equipment onto planes.
Some security experts say security improvements since the attacks -- most notably reinforced cockpit doors, better intelligence and motivated passengers-- have made the strict prohibition of small pen-knives unnecessary.
But the proposal had drawn fierce opposition from lawmakers, airlines and others who said it would place passengers and crews at risk.

Estimated shipping time: please allow 1-2 business days to process your order and 3-5 business days for standard ground shipping.
Great selection of drawer pulls, speedy checkout. Easy shopping.
Great product selection and great prices. Also like the free shipping!
Dixie in customer service was great help. Thank you!
Good web site, very good selection, especially Copper (which is hard to find, even on-line). The Tech who answered my questions was efficient and speedy in responding and in finding further answers. I am bookmarking this site and referring it to my son.
I dislike your website. If I wait too long my cart empties and I have to start all over. It is very frustrating.
Shipping amount should be available at time of ordering.
Great experience. Have been looking for these for weeks. Thanks
Great prices
smooth and easy, found what i was looking for in short order.
Your site search is BY FAR the best I've seen--there are so many choices I was pulling my hair out on other sites trying to narrow things down.
ordering made very easy
easy to use website. thanks for the great price
Excellent search mechanism, really helped me figure out what I wanted.
I purchased these exact same knobs and pulls for my new kitchen. I love them so I purchased them for my father's renovated kitchen. I just wish that I had a coupon or a discount. It was a little more than I hope to pay for my dad's kitchen. I am sure they will look nice!
Love your site and selection -- I hope to be as satisfied with this product as I was with the first product I ordered from you! Thanks, Nick
Well organized web site. It was very easy to find what I was looking for. Great selection.
What is double twenty one o seven?
Very good, easy site to navigates... Good personal followup on stocking questions.
You easily beat out the Hardware Hut whose site says, "Delivery in 5-10 business days". Perhaps they have a grant from the Feds to expedite delivery. Heh.

Zebulon Nebula is an essayist from New York. With an encyclopedic mind that covers 'all cultures terrestrial and otherwise', Z. N. recounts and reviews history in his essays. He seems to have the viewpoint of an unaligned alien, trying to make sense of us all - and having a hard time doing it. Sometimes he's lighthearted, sometimes piercingly serious and controversial, but always fascinating comment. He was a regular columnist for Musea.

I'm leaving from Springer March 26 and heading NOBO for an attempting thru-hike. I'm carrying a Clark UL. Any suggestions on Sleeping Bag type/temp rating. I'm new to this hammock thing and I am worried about the cold temps from below. I will be carrying a foam pad.

Foam pads are cheap and light-ish. Nothing wrong with starting more than you need and ditching as you figure it out.

I'll be sectioning from Hughes gap (just N of Greasy creek friendly) to Atkins or beyond starting April 18th - May 10th ish. The PLAN is to hang every night except for one at Kincora. After all, I may as well be comfortable & sleep in the bed I use at home

I don't have any strict plans regarding switching quilts when it gets warmer, other than my general intent to "play it by ear."
I've never been the warmest sleeper, but by using layers of fleece sleepwear and incorporating more intelligence in site selection this time around, everything should work out just fine. My packing will be minimal, very much as it was at the end of last year. Only change this time around will be the inclusion of rain gear. Will probably go with Frogg Toggs simply because I don't want to spend $80 on an item that will be mailed home once the weather warms. My thinking was always that if it is so cold and rainy that continued hiking could endanger my life, I'd just sling the hammock and read in comfortable warmth. I'm not confident that this thinking will be approprate for mid-March in NW Georgia. I look forward to meeting as many of you as I am able, B.B. |

I'd say you could live without the pants. Works great as a wind jacket and to add extra warmth. http://cgi.ebay.com/Frogg-toggs-drid...713.m153.l1262

Stargazers looking up as darkness falls on Monday will notice an eye catching pairing-off between two of the brightest objects in the nighttime sky, weather permitting.
Space news from NBCNews.com
Teen's space mission fueled by social media

Teen's space mission fueled by social media
The moon, appearing as a waxing gibbous phase, 78 percent illuminated, will appear to stand close below a very bright, non-twinkling, silvery "star." But it won't be a star that will be keeping the moon company on America's Inauguration Night, but the largest planet in our solar system: Jupiter.
Across much of the United States and southern Canada, this will be closest that the moon and Jupiter will appear relative to each other until the year 2026. On Monday night, the moon will be about of 248,700 miles (400,500 kilometers) from Earth, while Jupiter will be nearly 1,664 times farther out in space at a distance of 413.8 million miles (665.9 million km).
During Monday's stargazing event, observers have the chance to see what astronomers call an appulse — a very close approach of the moon to Jupiter. An appulse is a phenomenon caused by perspective only. There is no close physical approach in space between the two objects involved. Astronomers insist that appulses have no direct effect on the Earth.
The moon, moving around the Earth in an easterly direction at roughly its own diameter each hour, will creep slowly toward and ultimately pass just below the giant planet. Jupiter, meanwhile, will be shining about three times brighter than the brightest star, Sirius, offering a commanding sight for stargazers despite its close proximity to the moon.
[ Amazing Stargazing Photos for January ]
Although it will be the moon that will be moving in Jupiter's general direction, the illusion will be that it is Jupiter that is moving, appearing to glide slowly along on a path taking it above the moon. A similar illusion occurs during a lunar eclipsewhen the dark shadow of Earth appears to be slowly creeping across the face of the moon. In reality it is the moon itself slowly creeping into the Earth's shadow.
After their closest approach Monday, the moon will spend the balance of the night moving slowly away to the left (east), leaving Jupiter behind.
The table accompanying this guide gives local times of Jupiter's closest approach to the moon's upper edge on the night of Jan. 21 for 20 major cities across the United States and Canada. Separation is given in terms of a fraction of an angular degree. The width of the moon is equal to one-half (0.50) of a degree.
Examples: From Boston, closest approach between Jupiter and the moon is at 11 p.m. EST. Separation is 0.62 of a degree or one and a quarter times the apparent width of the moon from Jupiter to the moon's upper edge. From Miami, closest approach is at 11:02 p.m. EST, the separation is listed as 0.33 of a degree or two-thirds of a moon's width separating Jupiter from the moon's upper edge.
From Halifax, Nova Scotia, an asterisk indicates that the closest approach between Jupiter and the moon comes after midnight on Tuesday.

TODAY's Takeaway: 'Princeton Mom' says mate, don't wait; Miles O'Brien talks life after amputation
And here's another interesting illusion: For many places in the United States and Canada, Jupiter will be separated from the moon's upper rim by at least a half-degree (0.50) — equal to the apparent width of the moon. And yet visually to the eye, Jupiter will appear to be much closer; in fact, seemingly impossible that the gap that separates Jupiter from the moon's edge would be large enough to accommodate an object that is equal to the size of the moon itself.
[ How to Observe the Moon (Infographic) ]
Even from places like Boston, Montreal and Edmonton where the gap exceeds a half degree, Jupiter will appear much closer relative to the moon's edge. Check it out for yourself.
If you own a small telescope, there are several stargazing opportunities to get a close look at Jupiter during Monday night's appearance.
According to Sky & Telescope magazine, Jupiter's Great Red Spot, a colossal storm bigger than the Earth, can be visible in amateur telescopes from 9 p.m. to 10:40 p.m. EST (6 p.m. to 7:40 p.m. PST/0100 to 0240 GMT). And Jupiter's icy moon Europa will cross in front of the planet, as seen from Earth, between 8:13 p.m. and 10:37 p.m. EST (5:13 p.m. and 7:37 p.m. PST/2213 and 2337 GMT). The best time for amateur astronomers to try and spot Europa's shadow on Jupiter via telescope will be between 10:22 p.m. and 12:46 a.m. EST (7:22 p.m. and 9:46 p.m. PST/0222 and 0546 GMT), the magazine's stargazing experts said.
"You'll also get an opportunity to attempt an unusual feat: spotting Jupiter in the late afternoon, before the Sun sets," said Tony Flanders, associate editor at Sky & Telescope magazine and host of Skyweek on PBS, in a statement. "First locate the moon medium-high in the east; then look a few moon-widths left or lower left of the Moon for Jupiter. It should be easy to spot with binoculars if the air is clear."
Lastly, if you are lucky to be situated across a broad swath of central South America including French Polynesia, Pitcairn and Galapagos Islands an even more spectacular event will take place, when the moon will hide or eclipse Jupiter (called an occultation).
But don't fret if you miss the moon's occultation of Jupiter Monday night. Another one will occur on March 17, according to Sky and Telescope.
Editor's note: If you snap an amazing photo of Jupiter and the moon, or any other night sky view, that you'd like to share for a possible story or image gallery, send photos, comments and your name and location to managing editor Tariq Malik at email@example.com.
