both major plants in pic of left are cannabis.
If you grow outside in california you can reach close to a 2lb per plant
If you grow in a closet indoors a qp with a good plant.
If you grow in your basement with lights & shit, a lb if you're good.
I'm not here to make someone else rich.

It just depends.
On the species.
The soil on which it is grown / ph values.
Available nutrients / ec. values.
Inside or outside.
How much lumen are put on the chlorofyl for photosynthesis.
And loads more!
Some grower here had this plant, it was called "Grapefruit".
Grown outside, next to a pond. It yielded 1.2 kilo. DRY!
The stem was fatter then a coke can, it was not even a meter high,
and it was over 1.2 square meters in diameter
This was during a good summer.
Inside, a seedling put into 12 / 12 cycle right away, depending on the species and other variables:
20 - 40 grams of dry clean cannabis.
Put that seedling into a photo cycle of 16 / 8 or 24 / 0 or whatever for a long time,
make it grow to the heavens, then the sky is the limit
Knock yourself out.
One can never tell you how much can be harvested from one plant, ever
What i would like to add is this;
a rough estimate can be made, and always is made by seed companies for example.
So, in theory one can make an estimate, not per plant but per square meter.
But still, there is a margin of about 30% - 40%.
So, is that really accurate enough? Because i don't think so.
You like it; i like it; we like it futuristic.
it depends really how big do you WANT to grow your plant?
most people would work for a best yield as possible per m2 taking into consideration, legality, ease of maintance, cost economy.
when i was doing plants i supposed i averaged around 5-1/2oz per plant 6 plants per 600w growspace, ( some would be 4oz others 7oz) soil
doing 12 plants in the same area the average not quite halved per plant.(2oz to 5oz) soil
doing 3 it not quite doubled..(one big fuker took over 10oz other two 3oz) soil
single ones 14-17oz (in dwc)
that was with a more or less hassle free maintance/watering schedule, kept simple so not much could go wrong.
damn i miss it :cry:
Stupid beginner question:
I am reading on how to grow as a novice. After harvesting weed can the plant regenerate more bud at a later time? I was thinking a couple plants would be ideal for personal use only, nothing fancy or for sale, just for a guy who smokes everyday to unwind from that horrible place we all call work!
yes that is possible but it takes to long for the plant to return to vegetative to be considered worthwhile unless you need the genetics, its much faster to grow from seed or clone
I can give an example of what a perfect 3600 watt HPS (6-lite/600watt Hortilux) indoor flowering room can yield in my dreams. It will take many 10's of thousands of words and endless pages for me to give you the best that can be achieved on earth with an indoor clandestine dream of this size. If you have $60,000 burning a hole in your pocket and the patience of a saint, I can tell you what to do if you want to be the most advanced and highest yielding dreamer. You would need 12' length x 7' width x 6'3"-6'7" high. Use 18qty. of Rubbermaid 20 gallon totes arranged in 6 rows of 3. Each tote is 28" long from handle to handle so 3 totes fit perfectly width wise. Keep the first row of 3 totes only a few inches from the width wall. Maybe 3".
So you have the first row (of 3 totes) set 3" from the left (width) wall. The totes are 17.25" wide. So the next row of 3 totes is 4" away from the first row (thereby repeating a 4" gap between all 6 rows of totes (18 in all). At inch marker 126.5" (0 being at the left (width) wall) is the edge of the last row of totes. There will be a 17.5" gap between the edge of the last row of totes and the right (width) wall of the room. The room will be wall to wall mylar coated polystyrene (2" x 4" frame in detachable 4' wide sections for access (no doors, we don't need them because when we dream in the secret garden we set it and forget for another 65 days, and then we pull the walls themselves quickly out of the way and back in place again as fast as you would take a piss).
So far you have arranged 18-20 gallon brute totes in a 12 x 7 room. The room is silver foam. There are 9 batwing style (simple) reflectors equidistant above.The 9 x 400 watt Hortilux Blue will be set about 15" lower then the maximum afforded height of your standard 6'7" basement in the beginning of veg (assuming the dreamed of cuts were pre-struck in another area and have plenty of white hair below).You will transition from veg stage to flowering stage by lifting your marionette style 9-gang fixture from 2 floors above this basement room. All of the fixtures are hung from 1/2" rigid aluminum conduit which is routed through a 12" wide x 16" long rectangular duct which is located in the ceiling above each fixture ( the fixture will overlap the rectangular duct hole just enough to not permit light teak).
This way there is a rectangular duct originating from the ceiling of the room (just above each of the 9 fixtures, 9 ducts in all) routing through the floor above and out of the 2nd floor (we started from the basement, went through the 1st floor and ended on the second floor). This way heat travels straight up from whence it came, at the source... thereby minimizes heat mixing throughout the lower column of the room.
The 9 gang light fixture which has no connection whatsoever to the basement room allows you 1 unprecedented advantage amongst other super advantages. You may access the light fixture without having to traverse the room itself. No need to disturb the plants in your dreams. Change bulbs and remove the entire fixture (if you so desire at anytime you want) when entering different stages. For example, I will open an access panel located at the bottom of the 12" x 16" duct riser (near the floor, in the room above "the room" on the 1st floor). I stick my hand down on a 1/4"-20 wing nut on either side of the top of 1 of 9 of the light fixtures . I loosen it and the other, freeing the still electrically connected ( with wire slack) light fixture. I put it on the floor in front of the duct opening and then I undo a pair of Male/female Amp 18-22 disconnects. The cable stays in the duct (capped). Through this 16" x 16" access panel in the side of the riser duct located on the first floor above the basement room I see 1/2" rigid aluminum conduit extending downward from the second floor. At the end where the fixture was supported is a 1/2" threaded aluminum tee conduit body (or condolet) just parallel and 2 inches below the ceiling of the basement "room".
A piece of 1/2" rigid aluminum conduit is tightly attached at each end of the TEE condolet (a small nipple of a piece, maybe 7"-8" right and left (don't forget the piece it all hangs from that comes all the way down through the duct from the 2nd floor, 2 floors above. That piece is a 10 foot length plus a 30" length ). A few 1/4"-20's are sticking up through the left and right side top of each fixture and 1/4"-20 nuts are sandwiching the fixture and stab through a hole at the end of each 7 or 8 inch piece that is attached on either side of the TEE condolet. The access and fixture are all the same at all 9. You can change a bulb or even a fixture from the first floor above the basement room.
So I'm used to dreaming with 9 fixtures in the beginning (x400 watt Hortilux Blue) and then I remove the 3 fixtures in the middle ( so I'm left with 6, but you dream of changing the bulbs to 600 watt without disturbing the dream plants downstairs, allowing you to use the full footprint of the room for greatness) . I plug each rectangular duct hole in the middle row of ceiling duct openings with a silver mylar covered plywood backed rectangle that attaches to the TEE condolet fixture holder, but you disconnect the MAY WEST link at the top of the 12.5'- 1/2" aluminum rigid conduit stem. This link holds the fixture stem and prevents the stem from a removed fixture from going up and down with the rest of the bottle jack operated 200 lb. 9-gang fixture that originates from the 2nd floor!!! To be continued...
The fixture consists of 9-12.5' lengths of aluminum rigid electrical conduit with 1/4" holes drilled up top about 3/4" from the end that is sticking up into the 2nd floor air handling room. This is where we see 9- 12 x 16 inch ducts in the floor and coming out of those ducts are the 1/2" conduits that hold the fixtures all the way down in the basement. We place a 1/4"-20 bolt, about 2" long, through the MAY WEST and the end of the pipe. The 3/4" MAY WEST is properly surrounding a 10' long piece of 3/4" rigid galvanized electrical conduit. This length of 3/4" rigid electrical conduit is holding 3 fixtures in (1 of the 3 rows) in a row with exactly the same MAY WEST linking method. It is like we made a letter m with 3 pieces of 1/2 inch aluminum perpendicular to one piece of 3/4" rigid.
So imagine we have three of these letter m's about 2 feet away from each other. Just arrange each of the three gang (3 x 3= 9gang) fixture holders in such a way that the middle row is located down the middle of the room, but Rows 1 and 3 are as close to the wall as possible. If you don't do it that way, you will have very little light along the first foot along the length on either side of the room. The fixtures are DIY Adjust-a W*** style mediu* with Su**r Spr**d**. Also arrange the winged fixtures so the bulbs are parallel to the width of the room, no exceptions.
2-10 foot long x 2" rigid galvanized electrical conduit will bisect from underneath each of the 3-3/4" rigid conduits for support. Stretching between both of the 2" conduits(so as to support the conduits and ultimately the entire remotely operated 9-gang super chandelier, is a rectangle of such dimensions, materials and cross-section... pay attention: First visualize 2-42" long x 2" galvanized pipes, thats 2 pieces. Then 2-20" long x 2" galvanized (or rigid, same thing) pipes. Now use short threaded 90 degree plumbers elbows ( 4 of them) to make a rectangle of pipe. Now put 2 layers of 3/4" CDX plywood underneath that pipe rectangle. Put a bottle jack underneath that rectangular chandelier support. All the while, the ends of the 2-2" rigid pipes are held captive from side to side travel by drilling 1-1/8" holes at each end about 2" away from the very tip of each and holding those pipes up with mounted vertically oriented 3/8" threaded rods which only allow the chandelier to be guided up or down and not side to side. The 3/8" nuts and washers are moved down while the bottle jack holds the chandelier in place and then pressure is released form the jack until the 2" rigid is let down on to the 3/8" nut and washer ( at 4 points of course), thats how you up to 9 fixtures simultaneously downward.
To move the chandelier upward, there are pieces of 1/2" pvc MPT adapters jammed into the end of the 2" rigid "guide rod holes" to allow for smooth up and down movement which prevents the rod from scraping against the holes in the metal conduit. Just lift the bottle jack up to the maximum length if need be ( never set-up a mega chandelier such that the bottle jack can lift the fixtures past the ceiling thereby destroying them) and then manually raise the 3/8" nuts and support washers upward along the 4 guide rods which hold and stabilize the entire chandelier at the 4 corners of the 2-10 foot lengths of 2" chandelier support conduit until the 4 foot level is satisfied across all four corners and set the 3/8" nuts and washers at their new height. ALL WITHOUT EVER DISTURBING A DREAM PLANT. This is the only way to do that without making any disturbance whatsoever to the environment of "the room".
The room where you just adjusted the height of 9 fixtures (weighing over 200 lbs, possibly 250) is also the air handling room. It contains your exhaust fans, carbon filters, ballasts and lighting contractors. The unwanted ballast heat is 2 stories above the dream plants. So is the heat from the lighting contactor. We will come back to the air handling room later. Please allow me to re-jog the mental picture I want you to have so far. You have a basement 9 gang light fixture that originates from and is operated from not 1 floor above the basement, but 2. On the 2nd floor in the air handling room. There are 9-12"x16" duct openings above 9 light fixtures which can be 9- 400 watt metal halide(for vegging stage) or 6- 600 watt hps (for flowering stage) by removing the 3 middle fixtures and easily (almost seamlessly) plugging the middle row of basement ceiling ducts that are located above the 3 fixtures we removed to make a transition from 9-400w MH to 6-600 watt HPS.
The "room" (in the basement, of course, you know by now because you are paying attention) is wall to wall silver coated foam insulation board and framed with 2x4's.4 x 4 foot sections of the walls are removed(and re-inserted there after) for easy access at the inception of vegging dream plants. The same 4 x 4 foot wall sections are removed when the dream plants are 30 inches tall and then we tilt them over a full 90 degrees ( we can do this because there is no media to make the base of the plant stiff, we are advanced jedi lords of the dream plant and we never use things like hydraton, rock wool, dirt, sand, gravel, used condoms, defocation, lost hopes, broken dreams or dead puppies in the root zone.This way you are not lying when you tell someone that you know how to dream hydroponically. Hydro means water and dissolved nutes in the root zone. Add 2-9" round aluminum oxide air stones into each Rubbermaid 20 gallon tote and a water level controller for each 20 gallon tote with a separate Reverse Osmosis top off zone for each 20 gallon tote and now each plant is independent from all the other 18 plants.
No plumbing between each 20 gallon tote. O.K..... So I went off on a tangent on the way down from the air handling room ( also known as the fixture room). We're in the basement dream flowering room. We are standing below one of the 9 light fixtures on the right side (width) wall where we have a 17.5" gap from the wall and the edge of the last row of rubbermaid 20 gallon brute totes ( 6 rows of 3 totes) each tote being 28 inches long from handle to handle and 17.25" wide. Now I tell you how to drill the lid (with almost GPS precision) for all the peripherals which include:
1.)2-9" round airstones(with valves for precise set and adjustment) with a combined output of .74 cfm (that's a ridiculous amount of oxygen for a 20 gallon DWC container, Heath Robinson will be jealous.
2.) A 1-1/2" detachable white pvc pipe vacuum inlet which sits just a 1/2" above the bottom of the 20 gallon container so that you may attach a shop vac hose to quickly evacuate all the water without ever damaging roots because the mouth of the inlet is all the way in the corner of the container behind a curtain of rushing air bubbles (roots won't go or settle there)
3.) A non-contact liquid level sensor that I will never tell you how to build (only will give clues). I will give you every last excruciating detail of how to build my system except for the only detail that makes it possible. If you do not figure out how to make the level sensor yourself, you do not deserve to partake in this vision quest. In fact, you will not be able to.Take it or leave it. Nobody is spoon fed. Ever.
4.) A 3" PVC male adapter (this is where the dream plant sits, only in your mind of course)
5.) 2-1/2" pvc vents for good ventilation of the airspace between the bottom of the 20 gallon container lid and the top of the water surface (air/water interface).
6.) 3-1/4" OD LLDPE tubes are also stuck into the lid. One protrudes to the bottom of the 20 gallon container so that you may extract a water sample from afar. The other is used as a syringe injection tube for KOH and nutrient mixes. The third LLDPE tube is for the Reverse Osmosis top off water which is added back as it evaporates. The top secret level sensor which I will never tell you how to create (you must figure it out with my clues later on) is what controls this feed tube. The end of that feed tube is held above the air/water interface.
I will continue this tomorrow... before I go on, let me make myself clear. Weather or not you have the time or attention span it is all up to you. If you happen to be as dedicated as I am and you have searched far and wide for the Holy Grail of reasonably sized dream production set-ups, I kid you not, what I am about to detail and specify is the best possible way of using 3600 watts of lighting indoors. Please stay with me and be patient, I will give you everything in a box . You simply have to find the key (the mystery level sensor). Tomorrow will be the exact co-ordinates and exact sizes of the holes to be drilled in the lid of each of the 18-20 gallon Brute totes.
P.S. I'll be done hijacking this thread by Wednesday. When I'm done (if you read everything and take it seriously) you will have amassed all there is to know about indoor "dreaming". Or you could all fag out and report me for hijacking the thread and maybe , if you're lucky... 50 maybe 60 years from now one of my Grandchildren will finally reveal the secret to multiple container DWC with no connected plumbing that gets auto top off from one ro filter. Just thought I'd let you know that it doesn't for anybody else but me. I get the same freedom of individual soil container gardening without any work that is associated with maintaining media whatsoever. Please think about that and what it allows you to do as a dream grower. For example: dream with as many strains as you have containers regardless of the flowering time. One container has a leak and it's no big deal because there is no connected plumbing that would have made it a system wide fatalistic disaster. Pull entire plants out of the room without disturbing roots and disturbing other plants. Do I have to go on. Just give me a few days and I promise you will have a treasure trove of info. If I have to move it to my own thread so be it, but it is only with my way can you get the maximum yield possible indoors with 3600 watts of HPS.
You should be able to get 9 oz. of OG#18 per site (18 sites in all) with the method I am about to detail in the next few days. 6-7oz. of Reserva Privada Sour Diesel and about the same(6-7 oz.) with DNA LA Confidential if you veg for 6 weeks (although you will only need 3 weeks of veg for either OG#18 or the Reserva Sour diesel for the aforementioned approximate yields). In the coming days I will post at least 30 times more words than the 2 previous posts combined. If you are smart enough to heed my advice you should be able to take over your region ( a market of a 5 mile radius) after 6 years of non-stop megalomania and following my rules. Later on I will include the commandments on how to stay a clandestine dreamer without anybody coming over unexpectedly to wake you from your dreams.
Last edited by Tuesday Afternoon; 29th October 2013 at 21:59. Reason: Just felt like.
OK... now I will plot the co-ordinates of the 12 holes that must be drilled into the lid of each of the 18-20 gallon Rubbermaid Brute totes (each of these containers will hold one dream plant and they will not have any plumbing that connects each body of water together, thereby making this the worlds most unique DWC system to be situated in a 12 x 7 room with a 6'7" ceiling).
The long side of the Rubbermaid 20 gallon tote lid will be our Y-axis. The shorts side will be our X-axis. So get that graph paper (or the actual lid itself) and plot from Y0 up to Y25.5. Now also plot from X0 up to X17.5. The units are inches. So now you have a rectangular graph to simulate the dimensions of a Rubbermaid Brute 20 gallon tote lid. The holes (9 of which are made with the exact sizes of hole saws I tell you to use and 2 of which are made with a 1/4" metal twist bit and 1 is made with a 21/64 metal twist bit (this hole in particular is threaded with 1/8"-27 tpi tap to accommodate a 1/8" thread (1/4" OD) john guest MPT push fitting adapter. Never stray from my exact numbers unless you're a big fan of failure).
Hole #1;Y22.5625,X2.5625;made with 1.375" hole saw. Hole#2;Y23.5,X3.875;made with .75" hole saw. Hole #3;Y12.75,X8.625;made with 3.375" hole saw.Hole #4;Y3.5,X5.40625;made with 2.3125" hole saw.Hole#5;Y4,X3.5;made with 2.25" hole saw.Hole #6;Y1.8125,X12.875;made with .75" hole saw. Hole #7;Y14.25,X2.75; made with 1.375" hole saw. Hole # 8;Y4,X11.59375;made with 2.3125" hole saw. Hole#9;Y3.5,X8.625;made with 2.3125" hole saw. Hole #10;Y2,X2;made with .25" metal twist drill bit. Hole #11;Y12.5,X2; made with .328125" metal twist drill bit. Hole #12;Y23,X15;made with .25" metal twist drill bit.
Those are all the holes.The reason why the holes must be made with precisely the exact hole saw mentioned (or drill bit mentioned) is because the fitting that will later be put through each hole will make a tight seal that will not allow water to splash up and out through the top of the lid.
Get those holes drilled through the lid.No holes will ever be made in the container itself, yes, this DWC system is flood proof because of that. No other DWC system is flood proof, only mine. Tomorrow I will tell you how to produce the stem that attaches to the 9" round aluminum oxide air stones (there are 2 air stones in the bottom of the tote that require 2 special stems that ultimately attach to an air distribution manifold).
I will also let you know, that in the Summer of 2014 (maybe sooner) I will show you many photos of the system in action. It will not be through this website, but those who are interested in being kings of their craft may check it out elsewhere if they want to PM me (later on) to find where these photos will be. Just let me remind you, to dream this big it requires at least $60,000 (and a 2 story house with a full basement). If you want to make just one unit you will not reap the rewards that enable you to destroy your competition (in your dreams, of course).
Are you smashing so much air into your dwc the plant root zone is if you put your hand in 'frothy' is the feel Tuesday? Sounds like you have a varient 02 (air) saturated dwc solution. I mean if you measured the saturation level it isn't truly saturated, but the root zone I suspect been a mass of bubbles-frothy compensates. Heaths dwc variant compensates with hi-flow. 60k is a fucking huge investment, good luck btw
Thank You. I'll continue this thread soon. Been busy with life. Peace

- Economic growth measures the change in real GDP (national income adjusted for inflation; ONS call it chained volume measure of GDP)
- In 2014 the UK economy grew by 2.4% – (compared to 1.7% in 2013.
- GDP was 2.6% higher in Quarter 2 (Apr to June) 2015 compared with the same quarter a year ago.
- The peak to trough fall of the economic downturn in 2008/2009 is now estimated to be 6.0%
- In 2013, GDP at market prices was £1,713,302 million (£1.7 trillion)
- Updated September 14th, 2015
Recent UK Economic Growth
Source: ONS IHYQ
Raw data: National income accounts | real GDP | % change quarterly
Economic growth per GDP
With population growth averaging around 0.6 – 0.8% a year (about 50% of population growth is caused by net migration), real GDP is boosted by this growth in population. Real GDP per capita and average incomes, are growing at a slower rate.
Recent history of economic growth
- Since the recession of 1992 ended, the UK experienced a long period of economic growth – it was the longest period of economic growth on expansion. Also, the growth avoided the inflationary booms of the previous decades. However, the credit crunch of 2007-08 hit the UK economy hard and caused a steeper drop in real GDP than even the great depression of the 1930s. Helped by a loosening of monetary and fiscal policy, the UK experienced a partial recovery in 2010 and 2011. But, by Q1 2012, the UK was back in recession.
- The second double dip recession was caused by a variety of factors including European recession, lower confidence caused by austerity measures, continued weakness of bank lending and falling real incomes.
- Since the start of 2013, the UK economy has experienced positive economic growth – one of the relatively best performances in Europe. However, real GDP is still fractionally below it's pre-crisis peak of 2007.
- The recovery has been stronger in the service sector than manufacturing and industrial output. There are fears the UK recovery is still unbalanced – relying on government spending, service sector and ultra-loose monetary policy.
It is worth bearing in mind that sometimes economic growth statistics get revised at a later stage.
Real growth rate compared to trend rate
Source: ONS – ABMI
An illustration of how actual GDP has fallen behind the trend growth of GDP, since the start of 2008.
Usually, the gap between actual growth and the trend rate is an indication of the output gap in an economy. But, given the length and depth of the recession, we have permanently lost some output – The ONS calculate the output gap as quite small.
Real household disposable incomes per head
Source ONS – IHXZ
This shows real household disposable income per head. This is an important component of GDP, but GDP is also composed of other income sources, such as profit and dividends. This shows that real household incomes per head have been stagnant since 2007.
Real GDP since 1955
Two Decades of Volatile Growth in the UK.
This shows quarterly growth rates to get an annualised growth rate multiply by 4.
More detail of this period:
Economic Growth and Unemployment
A feature of the UK's recovery since 2013 has been that unemployment has fallen faster than in previous recession – in the 1980s and 1990s unemployment lagged behind the recovery. This fall in unemployment is due to several factors, such as – more flexible labour markets, low wage growth and low labour productivity. (UK Unemployment mystery)

|About PASSIA
|Home >
|The Palestinian Academic Society for the Study of International Affairs (PASSIA) was founded in March 1987 by Dr. Mahdi Abdul Hadi and by a group of Palestinian academics and intellectuals in Jerusalem -- Al-Quds Al-Sharif.
PASSIA E-Brochure (1.1 MB-Flash Movie)
PASSIA employs all its staff on an annual contractual basis whether full or part time. The current team handles the execution of all PASSIA projects, with other short-term researchers, editors or assistants commissioned for specific tasks related to these projects.
|Each year, PASSIA prepares proposals for its projects, based on the policy guidelines of the Board of Trustees and the PASSIA Standards. PASSIA takes this opportunity to acknowledge with gratitude the contributions of the organizations and institutions mentioned.
|PASSIA's main international project partners and institutional links include:
|PASSIA is a member of the following networks and associations:
On February 2, 2005, the Arab Partnership for Conflict Prevention and Human Security (Interim Network) was formed as part of a larger effort to contribute to the UN Global Process on the Role of Civil Society in the Prevention of Armed Conflict (GPPAC).
GPPAC is a partnership between the United Nations, governments and civil society to develop a common platform for effective action on conflict prevention from the community to the global level. The Arab Partnership will focus their efforts in the areas of capacity building, dialogue and awareness building and human security. Founding members include conflict resolution and human security organizations across the Middle East and North Africa.
The PNGO Network strives to promote coordination and cooperation among Palestinian NGOs and to advocate their right to exist and function without restrictions. The PNGO is active in advancing democratic values and in strengthening the role of the civil society in Palestine.
MeSCo was established in 1994 (PASSIA was a founding member) in order to provide Mediterranean countries with a forum for debating international policy and security issues from a regional point of view. In principle, network members deal with international relations and security, carry out policy-oriented research, enjoy a domestically and internationally recognized reputation, and are NGOs.
In 1996, MeSCo's scope was expanded to include institutes from non-Mediterranean countries. Euro-MeSCo strives to promote dialogue and the exchange of information between its members; to support their institution-building and research capacities, and to foster cooperation between the civil societies in the member countries.
MThe Arab NGOs Network for Development (ANND) was established in June 1996, with the membership of 45 network and non-governmental organization from 12 Arab countries. The initiative for establishing ANND came from a group of Lebanese and Tunisian civil society organizations that met in 1993, during one of the preparatory meetings for the International Social Development Summit that took place in Copenhagen, in 1995.

Memory Exercises That Work
Memory strategies are known to everyone who has ever learned the alphabet, a poem, or prepared for a test in school. By refreshing one's use of common memory strategies older adults can work wonders in offsetting normal age- associated memory skill loss. These memory skill strategies, discussed here in greater detail, include:
Sometimes the reaction to a frustrating search for your glasses is - "There I go again, my memory is slipping." Your memory ability may be just fine. The problem may be not paying attention. The simple step of developing a habit of actively paying attention can save much frustration.
Example: Perhaps you have had to search for your car keys, been in doubt as to whether or not you took your morning medication correctly, or found yourself in a room wondering what you came searching for?
Memory exercise: Pay attention - stop - look - listen. It takes no more than a second to say, "I am putting the keys in my jacket pocket."
Information must be rehearsed to be placed properly in long-term memory.
Example: You are in the shower and get an idea you wish to discuss with your spouse. You can't make a note, and you don't want that great new idea to slip away. What to do?
Memory exercise: You must rehearse ( repeat to yourself)
your idea to talk to your spouse. You may forget if you
used shampoo and a conditioner, but you'll remember your
new idea.

text: Posted March 30, 2010 NYPD BIKE THEFT Cops ****** Dozen Bikes in "Operation Bike Raid" [June, 2007] On the evening of May 30, 2007, Ninth Precinct cops, led by Ninth Precinct Lieutenant Robert Corcoran, executed "Operation: Bike Raid" on East Sixth Street, between First and Second Avenues. As cops with special metal cutting saws chewed through locks and chains on bikes locked to parking meters and streets signs, Sixth Street resident Robert Carnevale confronted them, having received a call from his girlfriend outside his apartment building. Carnevale quickly rang buzzers in buildings on his block to warn his neighbors that their bikes were being taken and then returned to the scene of the crime, taking The camera shy Lt. Corcoran photos of cops loading the dozen or so bikes they had just stolen into two unmarked dark blue vans with paneling over the side windows. (These vans can be seen regularly parked outside the Ninth Precinct on East Fifth Street.) After taking still photos, Carnevale switched his digital camera to video mode, filming the cops in action. At one point, he approached the plain-clothed Lt. Corcoran, who was obviously in charge of the operation. Annoyed that Carnevale asked him for his name, Corcoran mumbled it. When asked to repeat his name by spelling it, Corcoran told him: "You got my name, I did you a favor. . . . now I'm going to lock you up." In addition to arresting Carnevale, Corcoran busted a woman passing by who dared to ask what was going on. He charged both with "Disorderly Conduct" and put them through the system. At a press conference five days later addressing the bike thefts and arrests by the cops on Sixth Street, civil rights attorney (and New York City's true Public Advocate) Norman Siegel said that the "Bike Raid" might have resulted from a complaint by "Community" Board Three. Siegel noted that in September 2005, a judge had ruled that the city violated the rights of three cyclists when cops clipped their locks and took their bikes without warning. "The unlawful activity here is not by the cyclists, it's by the cops," Siegel said. Lt. Corcoran arrests Carnevale for asking his name without a permit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Justin Moore on ACM Win: 'It's About … Time' [NSFW]
Want to know Justin Moore's reaction thoughts on being named the 2014 ACM New Artist of the Year? He's not holding back.
Want to know Justin Moore's reaction thoughts on being named the 2014 ACM New Artist of the Year? He's not holding back.
The winner of the 2014 ACM Award's New Artist of the Year is ... Justin Moore!
Justin Moore is out on the road and opening up about why he loves living in his hometown in Arkansas!
Country stars get some cool opportunities, but Justin Moore says getting to visit and talk about St. Jude is the best.
News broke last month that Justin Moore and his wife, Kate, are expecting baby number three! Now, the happy family is busy going over possible names for the baby on the way.
Votes have been tallied, and the top three finalists for 2014 ACM New Artist of the Year have been announced!
Justin Moore and wife Kate will soon be the parents of three! A representative from the singer's record label confirmed the happy news to Taste of Country.
Justin Moore, who recently expressed his disappointment about not performing or presenting at country awards shows, isn't harboring any grudges. The singer took the stage at the 2013 American Country Awards on Tuesday (Dec. 10) to rock out and perform his latest hit, 'Point at You.'
What do you get when you combine Justin Moore with some very talented songwriters, including Rhett Akins? You get Moore's No. 1 hit, 'Point at You' -- but the song was actually almost recorded by another big country star.
Justin Moore stopped his show on Thursday night (Nov. 7) to say a few heartfelt words about Erin Clark, a 16-year-old fan who was killed late last month in a car crash in New Hope, Ala.
Justin Moore enjoyed the 2013 CMA Awards like the rest of us, but he wasn't on stage presenting. He also wasn't on stage performing. And fans, along with Moore, are asking why he was so noticeably absent.
Justin Moore urged his fans to stand up, then he fell down during the opening night of his Off the Beaten Path Tour in Springfield, Mo. over the weekend. In fact, he fell twice!

Wearing braces improves teeth, much like trapping a mime in an actual box improves their performances. Straighten up with this Groupon.
$2,799 for Invisalign Treatment ($6,000 Value)
Post-treatment retainers are recommended and not included with this Groupon.
Invisalign straightens teeth with a series of clear, removable, custom aligners. The process begins at the dentist's office, where, during an initial exam, the doctor snaps x-rays and takes impressions of the upper and lower teeth. In the Invisalign lab, technicians craft a set of up to 48 transparent aligners made to the patient's exact specifications. Patients wear the removable aligners for 6–18 months, changing the aligners every two weeks and only removing them while eating, brushing, or modeling a finely clenched jaw. Throughout the treatment, patients return to the dentist's office for routine checkups to ensure teeth continue to shift into their proper places. Read the Invisalign FAQs here.
Gorgeous Smile Dental
Dr. Precilyn B. Silvestre leads the team at Gorgeous Smile Dental in refurbishing smiles across two stylishly appointed offices. Whether performing general checkups or straightening teeth with Invisalign, the staff stays on top of the latest techniques by attending dental conventions, lectures, and meetings.

Garching, Germany (SPX) Mar 25, 2013
Carbon nanotubes can be used as quantum bits for quantum computers. A study by physicists at the Technische Universitaet Muenchen (TUM) has shown how nanotubes can store information in the form of vibrations. Up to now, researchers have experimented primarily with electrically charged particles.
Because nanomechanical devices are not charged, they are much less sensitive to electrical interference.
Using quantum mechanical phenomena, computers could be much more powerful than their classical digital predecessors. Scientists all over the world are working to explore the basis for quantum computing. To date most systems are based on electrically charged particles that are held in an "electromagnetic trap."
A disadvantage of these systems is that they are very sensitive to electromagnetic interference and therefore need extensive shielding. Physicists at the Technische Universitaet Muenchen have now found a way for information to be stored and quantum mechanically processed in mechanical vibrations.
Playing a nano-guitar
"In fact, the string vibrates more than a million times. The information is thus retained up to one second. That is long enough to work with."
Since such a string oscillates among many physically equivalent states, the physicists resorted to a trick: an electric field in the vicinity of the nanotube ensures that two of these states can be selectively addressed. The information can then be written and read optoelectronically.
"Our concept is based on available technology," says Michael Hartmann, head of the Emmy Noether research group Quantum Optics and Quantum Dynamics at the TU Muenchen. "It could take us a step closer to the realization of a quantum computer."
The research was supported by the German Research Council (DFG) within the Emmy-Noether program and SFB 631. Quantum Information Processing with Nanomechanical Qubits; Simon Rips and Michael J. Hartmann, Physical Review Letters, 110, 1205034 (2013) DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.110.120503

text: For those who think they know which of the 12 Priyanka Chopras Hurman Baweja marries at the end of Whats Your Raashee, heres a shocker.Ashutosh Gowariker has completely changed the bride-selection finale. Hurmans character walks away with a completely different girl from the one that the hero selects in the novel.It took a while to convince the novelist Madhu Rye. But Ashutosh finally made sense in convincing the litterateur that an identical ending in the film will work as a total spoiler for those who had read the book. Rye had also never imagined that all the 12 candidates for bride-hood would have the same face. But Ashutosh had made up his mind. If I had 12 different actresses playing the 12 brides-in-waiting, a star-hierarchy wouldve been created in the audiences mind. And the one Harman wouldve married wouldve been considered The Star of the show. I wanted all the 12 girls to be looked on with equal curiosity and interest by the audience. And for that I need to take up the challenge of making one actress play all the 12 parts.

By Stephanie Steinberg, USA TODAY
"If you really knew me, you would know ... now, fill in the blank."
When 100 teens at Freedom High School in Oakley, Calif., were given that question, some of the answers ranged from "I am gay" to "I used to cut myself" to "One day, I was ready to commit suicide."
The teens were part of MTV series If You Really Knew Me, which premieres tonight at 11 ET/PT. For the 12-part docu-series, MTV teamed up with Challenge Day, an anti-bullying program for high school students. In a six-hour session, teens engage in discussions and activities aimed at breaking barriers among cliques — including cheerleaders, jocks, goths and band nerds — and reducing bullying behavior.
Leikin Poppino, a recent graduate of Freedom High School, is featured in tonight's episode. Poppino says her high school has "every clique possible," and Challenge Day tore down walls built by groups that don't mingle.
The day begins with silly games but takes on a serious tone as students are placed into small groups where they're asked to share their deepest secrets, fears and feelings.
"For once, you weren't the jock, you weren't the rocker, you were you," Poppino says.
The program shows students that they have the power to break up cliques and put an end to bullying, says Challenge Day CEO Jaime Polson. Teens also see how their words and actions hurt their peers, which usually comes as a surprise. "They often forget just how much power they have and how much they matter to other people," Polson says.
On July 27, MTV brings Challenge Day to Anthony Wayne High School in Whitehouse, Ohio, where cyberbullying is a major problem.
Cyberbullying can be worse than traditional bullying, says Julie Hartline, a counselor at Campbell High School in Smyrna, Ga.: "There's a greater exposure, which causes the student to feel even more singled out because more people are aware of what's being done to them."
Sela Gaglia, a Challenge Day leader for 11 years, says the program teaches teens that they don't have to be "victims of their surroundings."
But teens must first understand that they're really not that different from each other, Gaglia says. One activity, called "the power shuffle," asks teens to cross a line if they've ever been called fat or were picked on or judged because of the color of their skin. Many are shocked to see their peers cross the line with them.
"When the lady asked us, 'Has anyone ever thought of committing suicide?' I thought I was going to be the only one, and I was surprised that a lot of people were in the same situation as me," says Kabraea Smith, 17, a Freedom High student.
Polson says bullying stops when teens feel comfortable in their own skin, and Challenge Day helps do that. "Most students walk away feeling like they really got a chance to show who they were," she says.

I did not know who to turn to when my mother died. Mr. Bowman was attentive, explained the process, took the bull by the horns, and guided me every step of the way! Top notch!
Posted by Kevin
I have used Jason Bowman for many real estate closing- I know when I show up for a closing it will happen! Smooth transaction everytime. I have also used him for other personal law needs as well. Will actually take time to talk with you personally and not send you to a legal assistant.Would highly recommend
Posted by Christy Kelley
Mr. Bowman represented me in a judgement filed against me with my HOA. The HOA had actually not posted the money correctly and was asking for more money and attourney fees than what we agreed upon. Mr. Bowman handled the case after reading all the e-mails and paper work that we were given. The HOA tried to receive more funds from me after agreeing that the judgement was met and paid in full. Mr. Bowman filed the appropiate paper work and contacted the HOA to get the matter resolved. They did not respond to Mr. Bowman timely, however, Mr. Bowman remained unmoved by their lack of communication. After speaking with the HOA they did agree that they had misused and posed our money innappopiately. Mr. Bowman actually found where they owed us a credit and did ask for it, as we received it within the following week. The issue would have not been resolved had we not hired and placed our trust in Mr. Bowman. He knew after reading and looking at the information that I had given him that the HOA was at fault. Thanks to Mr. Bowman it was resolved and the HOA did refund our money.
Posted by Keith
Have used him for lots of Real Estate transactions over the years. Will not sell a house without him listed as the closing Attorney. Have also used him for Divorce and other issues. Was invaluable.
Posted by pat
I have worked with many attoneys and find Jason to be more helpful than any in the past plus he sincerely cares about your problems (this is hard to find in today's world) His knowledge is 1st class and he always puts his client's problems out front and handles efficiently
on scale of 1-10 (10 being highest possible) - I am in the real estate business and have had many dealings with many different attorneys over the past 30 years - he is certainly a 10

If you're in Vegas, tune in and let your Vegas friends and colleagues know. This is one time that "what happens in Vegas should not stay in Vegas".
For the last several years we've attended Freedom Fest– Las Vegas and interviewed key thought leaders at the PBS studio including: Steve Forbes, Steve Moore, Daniel Mitchell, David Boaz and Richard Rahn, Charles Murray (author of The Bell Curve), Michelle Muccio (Acton Institute), Mark Skousen, and numerous others. So, it is with great pride and pleasure that we are now available on the Las Vegas PBS station.
Vegas PBS is southern Nevada's local PBS affiliate. The company also programs 13 additional television and cable public service media channels and produces over 700 hours a year of local programming. The mission of Vegas PBS is to use telecommunications technology and local outreach activities to support the educational, cultural, health, safety and civic needs of Southern Nevada by creating and acquiring content that informs, entertains, and improves people's lives.
Vegas PBS also offers multimedia products and educational services directly to classrooms, homes and businesses, along with extensive local outreach efforts targeted at literacy and health. The company serves 1 million a month with its TV and cable channels, records over 12 million classroom student viewings of downloaded digital media every year, enrolls over 7,000 people a year in "for-credit" classes, and receives over 6 million web page visits a year.
In 2010, Vegas PBS will dedicate a new 108,000 square foot Educational Technology Campus which will allow low cost production and storage of digital media on multiple distribution platforms. The goal is to meet the public safety, public education, public health, workforce development and cultural access needs and aspirations of southern Nevada. The facility has been designed to incorporate a large number of sustainable building features, furnishings and equipment standards as established by national certification organizations making it the "greenest" television station in North America.

The event was emceed with grace, humor and style by former board member and close friend, Terry Brock, CPAE, an internationally renowned marketing coach and consultant. He illustrated the last 20 years with inside stories that captured audience attention and highlighted the social media work made possible by a Searle Foundation grant. Terry walked us through the new website and blogging Niki has spearheaded with Orangecast, our new social media consulting firm. He showed us how to easily access past and present programs, comment on blogs and stay tuned even when an airing is missed. This work takes the program to another level, yet is still in progress so we hope you join us, comment and Twitter your friends and associates to follow us.
Conversation at each table was hosted by a lead person and included:
Hasan Pirkul on education, Jerry Fullinwider on oil and energy in Russia, Iran and Iraq, Ed Wallace on world history, Terry Brock on technology, Cary Clayborne on capital markets, Steve Pejovich on the Berlin Wall, Larry Steinberg on the Middle East, Dennis on the credit crisis and Niki on terrorism and the Roots of War documentary.
A video of the best of the last 20 years programming Niki had produced for the evening's event included comments from program guests and supporters from, Christopher Kennedy Lawford, Gail Cooksey and her team and Jim and Carol Young congratulating the host and producer on their 20 year TV anniversary. Highlights included candid clips of what goes on behind the scenes to make the program production work. A fun and surprise ending featured Dennis in makeup, commenting that he didn't look one day older than when the program started, and attributing it to good makeup and shots. The video is posted at the top of the page.
Terry Brock interviewed Niki as the filmmaker- co-interviewer on the controversial Roots of War documentary. Scheduled to air on KERA in January of 2006, the documentary was funded in part by the Hatton W. Sumners Foundation, one of our major TV funders. It aired first at the Angelika to community leaders. Protested by the Freedom and Justice Foundation, the KERA airing date was postponed. Niki spoke to what had occurred and what was done by her and Phil Smith, lead camera and co-editor of the documentary, in the ensuing years to get the program back on KERA. She felt compelled to honor the funder's expenditure and trust and took her own time and money to do so. More of this story can be seen at www.therootsofwar.org. The documentary is going to be posted online as well.
Dennis capped off the evening by talking about the future of the program, its collaboration with the University of Texas at Dallas (http://som.utdallas.edu/iecg/) School of Management and the Institute for Excellence in Corporate Governance and how the program will benefit and grow as a result. We recently taped several programs with their assistance in providing us the very best panelists from around the world. Take a look at programs 1807 (Corporate Governance) to 1810 (Wall Street: Capitol of Greed or Builder of Capital – airing on December 27th) for programs that profoundly affect our daily lives.
And of course what would the festivities have been without the host introducing key guests who have been part of our success, from Willis Duff to John Goodman, PhD, CEO of the National Center for Policy Analysis, among others you'll see on the upcoming excerpts of that night. A sterling moment highlighted energy guru Jerry Fullinwider, who in 1942, played with his then band in the very room the evening's gala was held in. Paid the royal sum of $25 for the evening, Jerry had to spend $5 of that fee to buy the music they played. We learned Jimmy Dorsey had tried to hire him but Jerry decided to stay in college and eventually go into business. As one of our benefactors, we're sure glad he chose that route. But to show he did indeed have talent then and now, a trumpet magically appeared and Jerry played a few bars to resounding applause.
The evening ended with a standing ovation for the co-founders, Dennis and Niki and a promise of more good programming. Stay tuned where as always we talk about things that matter with people who care…
Niki Nicastro McCuistion
Executive Producer/Producer
When Jim Lehrer, Executive Editor and PBS' NewsHour Anchor, visited KERA sometime back, we were lucky to catch him for a full hour of intimate conversation, televised of course. Jim shared some of his local story and how he got his start at the studio where it all started… KERA.
This is part two of an intimate conversation with PBS' NewsHour Anchor, Jim Lehrer…
Dennis McCuistion had the pleasure of interviewing Jim Lehrer. Curious about the PBS NewsHour Anchor's viewpoint, he asked, "a viewer, seeing all sides of a well-spoken, well thought out perspective, can they then make up their own minds on an issue, if we give them those perspectives?"
In his thoughtful way, Jim responded:
"Absolutely, absolutely right. They don't need any help from me to tell them what to think, but they do need help from me to provide them with many points of view in a very clean way. And fairness, fairness to ideas as much as to people. On our program someone will come in and say to me, 'the person who knows the most on this subject is this person and on the other side this person. This person is not as articulate as this person; so it would be unfair to put this person on with this person, they'd mop up the floor with him or her.'
'So we find a better spokesperson', Jim says. Now that may sound as if we're casting a movie. We're in the fairness to ideas business. That means everything to me. We want people to say; now I understand; now I can decide."
Dennis went on to enquire about Jim Lehrer's interviews with many of the most powerful people on earth. He mentioned an interview Jim had with a recent US President who had lied in that interview regarding a major controversy that had erupted. He asked Jim, with situations like that, how did he keep from being a cynic? Jim believes journalism is an optimistic line of work. He states, "you have to believe in peace if you're going to moderate a discussion on peace. We as people are capable of solving every problem." He quips, "I personally solved the Middle East issue at least 40 times." His style – "I ask and I listen and I can't judge."
Dennis asks, "Did you know President Clinton was lying?" Jim says no and goes on to tell us that there had been no leaks; there was no reason to believe differently. "There was no reason, no record, no way to challenge, and I asked the same question seven different ways. He looked me straight in the eye." The conversation covered the differences in journalism today, which has moved from substance of issues to titillating.
"Dan Rather spoke of this in the segment before," says Lehrer. "There was a watershed moment during the OJ Simpson trial when CNN went gavel to gavel and said to the American people, 'this is news- every day, this is news.' It wasn't news under the old definitions. Yes, it was news when the murders occurred, yes, it was news… the white Bronco, yes, it was news when the arrest took place, and he was indicted, and Fuhrman, then not news at all until the verdict came in." He goes on to say, how the huge audience watching affected other news programs and the nightly news as the networks had to compete. Yet a lot of people said, 'this is not news,' and they tuned out. 'THEY' (CNN) redefined what news was, using entertainment value."
Several years before this interview, Dennis and I had interviewed several journalists, household names, in Dallas for a charitable event. He (Dennis) had asked if there was bias in the Media, meaning liberal bias. He brought up Bernard Goldberg's work, Bias, and Goldberg's accusation of liberal bias in the media. Addressing this, Jim Lehrer answered, "Bias in the media? What is this media? Sounds like a dreaded disease." He reminded us that there is not just one media; there are scores of those scorpions out there. On PBS' NewsHour he said, "we don't do that, do not include me in that group." The reporters joining us that evening at the event were equally outspoken, Jim himself was very clear, "Like all generalities, a little of this, a little of that. That doesn't exist on the NewsHour with Jim Lehrer, and that's what concerns me the most."
Bob Schieffer had replied, "There's not a liberal bias. Bias is perceived. When people think something is biased they don't believe it. What we have to do is strive to be credible… That's the responsibility of a journalist, to try to be fair."
Dan Rather responded, "I understand why that is said by politicians and others with an agenda. My work stands for itself. I think the public is pretty sophisticated about these charges. They don't want to know what someone calls you. They want to know what you said on the air."
Sam Donaldson spoke to this, "I don't think media is liberal or conservative. George Wills, who's liberal or conservative, he or I? I don't buy the premise that media is liberal so we try to advance our causes over conservative causes. It is true that we think our job is to have people explain themselves and tell us what they are going to do tomorrow. We scratch at both parties just as hard."
And a classic response from Bill Moyers, "Rush Limbaugh is liberal? The Washington Times is liberal? Bill Buckley (was) liberal? McLaughlin is liberal? Donaldson is liberal? I mean come on now, that's one of the myths that the right wing is perpetrating to keep your eye off what they're really doing."
Coming back to the present time, on this program Jim Lehrer continues telling us his philosophy for news and its mandate to be fair. He states that everyone should be heard and that it's not his place to say who is right and who is wrong. Jim addressed the function of the news and the journalist's responsibility. "My job on NewsHour doesn't evoke natural smiles. If you're talking about a situation in the Middle East, what's funny about that?" He leaves us with his comments about his writing, now nineteen novels and several plays, and his work. The busy PBS NewsHour Anchor finds time for all he does, "The reason I really want to do this nightly news, I love what I do with my whole heart and soul. I'm fortunate to do what I really want to do. I devote time to do what I really want to do… rather than what someone else wants me to do."
Thank you Jim Lehrer, for a thoughtful and intimate inside look. Join us for more. And as always, thank you for watching.

>> BREAKING: U.S. to consider cellphone use on planes, by Ryan Knutson, Gautham Nagesh, Jack Nicas: "The Federal Communications Commission said it will soon propose allowing passengers to use their cellphones on airplanes, setting up a debate that will pit the technically possible against the socially tolerable. While cellphone use would still be restricted during takeoff and landing, the proposal would lift an FCC ban on airborne calls and cellular-data use by passengers once a flight reaches 10,000 feet. That would remove a regulatory hurdle to in-flight calls, but it would be up to the airlines themselves whether to allow them. Airlines have said they would approach the matter cautiously because of strong objections from their customers. The carriers also would have to install equipment on their planes to communicate with cellphone towers on the ground." [Blogosphere echo chamber count: 450] Wall Street Journal (paywalled)

South Dakota WINS when our workforce is qualified and prepared for all types of careers.
South Dakotans are ready to go to work, and our state is committed to training our citizens to fill the jobs that exist in our state. Currently, many of the chronically unfilled jobs in our state are welding and machinist jobs. We will work to develop a well-trained workforce to fill these important jobs by adding 24 members to a new welding program in Mitchell and by developing a hybrid course for welders and machinists that incorporates both hands-on instruction and online coursework.
Furthermore, by bolstering partnerships with local governments, providing National Career Readiness Certification (NCRC) and leveraging federal Community Development Block Grant Dollars, we can take the necessary steps to ensure South Dakotans have ample opportunity to receive the workforce training they need to achieve their career goals.

PLYMOUTH, N.H. – The Plymouth State College athletic teams have returned from spring trips to Florida, only to find snow still on the ground in New Hampshire
and the playing fields unfit for use. That has caused several cancellations and postponements for the Panther squads.
The PSC baseball team, which had home games scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday at Panther Field, has postponed both contests. The match-up against
Lyndon State slated for Tuesday has been rescheduled as part of a doubleheader on May 2nd at Lyndon State. PSC's contest against Saint Anselm, scheduled for
Wednesday, has been cancelled and will likely not be rescheduled. PSC is still on for the Little East Conference opener this Saturday at defending co-champion Eastern
The Panther softball team is still slated to open the Little East Conference portion of its schedule this Saturday at UMass Dartmouth. Sunday's twinbill at Bowdoin,
however, will not be played as scheduled in Brunswick, Maine. The match-up has been tentatively been set up for Sunday at Brown University in Providence, R.I.
The PSC women's lacrosse team, which played its game Tuesday as scheduled at Babson, has changed Thursday's game against Springfield. Originally slated
to be PSC's home opener, the game will now take place on the turf at Springfield Thursday at 7 p.m.
The Panther men's lacrosse team, which had its game against Colby College postponed last week, will not be able to host American International College Friday
at Panther Field. Officials from both schools are looking for a suitable date to reschedule the contest. No official date has been announced for the Colby make-up either.
There have been no changes to the PSC men's tennis schedule. The Panthers open the season Wednesday at Saint Anselm (3:00 p.m.).
