Native American Growing Methods
The North American Native Americans used at least nine species of Nicotiana, most of which were cultivated rather than gathered wild.
As you'll see in Section Two, there is a wealth of information on the Native American methods of tobacco culture in the eastern United States. Here we'll just look at a few of the more relevant points for the home gardener. Almost all tribes used some kind of digging stick at various points in the planting process, whether to poke holes for transplanting, to root out destructive insects, or to aerate the soil.
Early writers generally say that Tobacco was not grown with other crops by Native Americans, as it was believed to be injurious to them, and was usually cultivated by men. The Cayuga in New York State had permanent tobacco beds in which the plant was grown year after year. These beds were cultivated and lightly manured from time to time before planting after which the plants were left to propagate themselves. When the crop had matured, the golden leaves were gathered but the stems, with the maturing seed pods attached, were left standing in the patch.
The Seneca, another tribe of the Iroquois confederacy, had a very strong religious prohibition against anyone cultivating the plant. They simply scattered the seeds on the ground in a sacred place and took what the Great Spirit gave back.
The Sauk also planted their tobacco in the ashes of brush fires, but did not break the ground or fertilize the crop. In some cases they simply threw a handful of seeds on the ground near the lodge in the ashes of an old cooking fire site.
The Kickapoo, Potawatomi and Sauk all gathered the leaves of the plant in late August. They spread them on hides or blankets, and when they had wilted but not yet dried, they rolled them between the palms of their hands into little rolled-up tubes, much like tea-leaves are handled after harvesting. When these little rolled-up leaves were dry, the leaves were crushed. The reason given by the Sauk for the rolling was that leaves treated in this way did not crush to fine powder like those that had been dried flat. Most of the eastern tribes grew only enough tobacco for their own needs, but the Tionontati raised large quantities of it for export and were called Tobacco People (Nation de Petun) by the French.
One of the best published account of Native American tobacco culture is that given to G. L. Wilson by Buffalobirdwoman, an elderly member of the Hidatsa tribe. The Hidatsa and Winnebago raised a different species of tobacco from the eastern Indians (N. quadrivalvis), and their methods were somewhat different. She tells us:
"The old men of the tribe who smoked each had a tobacco garden planted not very far away from our corn-fields, but never in the same plot with corn. Tobacco gardens were planted apart, because the tobacco plants have a strong odor that affects the corn; if tobacco is planted near the corn, the growing cornstalks turn yellow, and the corn is not so good.
Tobacco seed was planted at the same time sunflower seed was planted, as early in April as the soil could be worked. The grower took a hoe and made soft every foot of the tobacco garden; and with a rake he made the loosened soil level and smooth. He marked the ground with a stick into rows about eighteen inches apart, and sowed the seed very thickly in the row. He covered the newly sowed soil very lightly with earth that he raked with his hand.
When rain came and warmth, the seed sprouted. The plants came up quickly so they had to be thinned out. The owner of the garden would weed out the weak plants, leaving only the stronger standing. The earth about each plant was hilled up with a buffalo rib into a little hill like a corn hill. A very old man, I remember, used a big buffalo rib sharpened on the edges to work the soil and cultivate his tobacco. He caught the rib by both ends with the edge downward; and stooping over, he scraped the soil towards him, now and then raising the rib up and loosening the earth with the point at one end. He knelt as he worked.
Tobacco plants begin to blossom about the middle of June, and picking then began. Tobacco was gathered in two harvests. The first harvest was the blossoms, which we reckon the best part of the plant for smoking. Blossoms were picked regularly every fourth day. If we neglected to pick them until the fifth day the blossoms would begin to seed. Only the green part of the blossom was kept. When we fetched the blossoms home to the lodge, my father would spread a deer hide out on the floor in front of his sacred objects and spread the blossoms on the hide to dry. The smoke hole of the lodge being rather large, would let through quite a strong sunbeam, and the drying blossoms were kept directly in the beam.
About harvest time, just before frost came, the rest of the plants were gathered. He dried the plants in the lodge. For this he took sticks, about fifteen inches long, and thrust them over the beam between two of the exterior supporting posts, so that the sticks pointed a little upwards. On each of these sticks he hung two or three tobacco plants by thrusting the plants, root up, upon the stick, but without tying them. When the tobacco plants were quite dry, the leaves readily fell off. It was the stems that furnished most of the smoking. They were treated like the blossoms, with buffalo fat. We did not treat tobacco with buffalo fat except as needed for use, and to be put into the tobacco pouch ready for smoking. Before putting the tobacco away into the cache pit, my father was careful to set aside seed for the next year's planting. He gathered the black seeds into a small bundle about as big as a baby's fist, wrapping them in a piece of soft skin which he tied with a string. He made two or three of these bundles and tied them to the top of his bed, or to a post nearby, where there was no danger of their being disturbed.
Told by: Buffalo Bird Woman, 1914
As the late Sioux Medicine Man, Lame Deer, used to say,
"The pipe is the Indian's blood and flesh. Its red pipe bowl is the blood, the opening the Indian's mouth, the stem the Indian's spine, the smoke his sacred breath, wafting up the smoker's prayers to Wakan Tanka, the Grandfather Spirit above. With the pipe in your hand, you can speak nothing but the truth."
True herbal tobacco can be very potent if misused. The following account is from a description of a Native American tribe who loved the pure, potent plant – probably N. trigonophylla.
" He feels good over all his meat when he takes it into his lungs. Sometimes he rolls up his eyes. And sometimes he falls over, backward he falls over backward. He puts his pipe quickly on the ground, then he falls over. Then they laugh at him, they all laugh at him. Nobody takes heed, when one faints from smoking, but if he faints because he is sick, then they throw water on him. When it is from tobacco that he faints, he does not lie there stiff long.
" Sometimes when the tobacco is strong the man himself when he smokes does not know when he faints away. Sometimes he falls to the ground and does not know it. Somebody else says "Look, he is fainting". They see his hands shake. He feels good for a long time after he smokes, if he likes to smoke he feels good for a long while. Sometimes he falls on the ground he feels faint.
" They say that some old men have to walk with a cane when they have finished smoking, they feel it so over their whole meat. I used to see them, the old men. It was the strong tobacco, that was what they liked. They fall on the ground. They awaken, and they smoke again. People always laugh at the old men smoking. When they smoke they talk in the sweathouse. All at once one man quits talking. That is the way they used to do in the old times. They used to like the tobacco so well. They used to like the tobacco strong. Whenever they faint from tobacco, they always get ashamed. They used to do that way, get stunned.
" Sometimes one fellow will have so strong tobacco that nobody can stand it without fainting, it is so strong. He feels proud of his strong tobacco. Some were fainters when they smoked, others never did faint. Some faint when the tobacco gets strong from them, and others do not.
" Vaskok was a fainter when he smoked. Everybody knew that Vaskok was a fainter. Vaskok used to faint, but he liked it. When he first starts to smoke he does not fall. It is when he finishes smoking a pipeful of tobacco that he falls; it is then as it gets strong for him that he falls."
Deficiency Signs In Tobacco
Tobacco is an exhausting plant, demanding much from the soil, reaching perfection as a smoke or a snuff only when it has been properly fed throughout its life. If you are following the suggestions in this report for preparing and fertilizing your soil, whether indoors or out, you are extremely unlikely to experience nutrient or mineral deficiencies in your plants. However, there are situations and processes that can act to deprive your tobacco of an essential growth element. If your plants are deprived of any major or trace nutrient, they will develop characteristic symptoms. One caution: many of these deficiency signs can be caused by things other than actual deficiency, things such as abnormal soil pH, poor drainage, and over-watering. Don't, however, take this to mean that you should underwater. Tobacco plants are 80-90% water depending on the species, and the amount of water they receive radically effects leaf development, development of flavor and aroma, nicotine content, and other important qualities.
The deficiency signs of tobacco may be divided into several major groups of symptoms according to the parts of the plant on which they show.
Effects Show on Lower Leaves Only
Potassium Deficiency: Lower leaves mottled with dead spots at the tips and margins, which are curled under; in extreme cases the stalk is very thin and may show dead spots; in mature plants, an acute potassium deficiency may show first in the top leaves.
Magnesium Deficiency: The lower leaves will yellow without spotting, and their tips and margins will turn or curl upward; in extreme deficiencies the stalk will be very thin.
Effects Show on the Entire Plant
Nitrogen Deficiency: The plant turns light green. Lower leaves yellow, and dry to a light brown. If nitrogen deficiency develops in late life, growth ceases and the stalk is weak and thin.
Phosphorous Deficiency: The plant is dark green, and the lower leaves may turn yellow, then greenish-brown to black. The stalk will remain short and slender at maturity if the deficiency is felt at that time.
Effects Show on New Bud Leaves
Calcium Deficiency: The young leaves of the terminal bud hook up, then die back at the tips and margins so that later growth of new leaves appear cut-out at the tips and along the edges, and the stalk finally dies at the growing tip.
Boron Deficiency: The young leaves of the terminal bud turn light green at their base, and the stalk at the base of the young leaves withers. If leaf continues growing it is twisted. The terminal bud finally dies.
Manganese Deficiency: The young leaves turn markedly yellow, and dead spots appear. The smallest veins in the small leaves remain green, and the stalk remains thin and weak.
Sulphur Deficiency: The young leaves turn light green, but no dead spots appear. The veins turn a lighter green than the tissue between the veins, and the stalk is short and slender.
Suckering Natural Tobacco Plants
You'll read much more about this vital process in Section Two. For now, a brief explanation of what suckering is and why it's so important.
As your Tobacco plant grows it will produce two kinds of leaves. The first kind will be a large leaf that springs forth from the stalk. The second kind, called a sucker leaf, soon springs from the point where the main leafs' stem joins the main stalk.

Are you trying to keep cool and keep your energy bills down? Replacing an old central air conditioning system can help you do just that.
But Consumer Reports says you have to shop carefully. Its survey of more than 40,000 subscribers reveals some systems have been much better at keeping their cool than others.
Contractor Tim Mosher says it's important to take good care of a central air conditioning system.
Mosher says, "The preventative maintenance in the beginning of the season is better than having to have a serviceman come out during a heat wave."
And Consumer Reports says carefully choosing an air conditioning system can help you avoid service calls, too.
Its latest product-reliability survey shows some central air systems have been significantly more repair-prone-Amana, Goodman, and York.
Dan DiClerico of Consumer Reports says, "In the past six year, close to one in five of these systems needed repairs. That's a lot."
Consumer Reports' survey also shows how inconvenient repairs can be.
Ten percent of those polled said they needed repeated repairs in the first year.
Eighteen percent reported their system broke down completely. And 39 percent lost AC for at least a day.
DiClerico says, "About 30 percent who had problems had to pay $150 or more for the repair."
To prevent having to call a repairman, Consumer Reports says invest in a more reliable brand, including ones from American Standard, Rheem, or Trane.
To prevent having to call a repairman, Consumer Reports says invest in a more reliable brand, including ones from American Standard, Rheem, or Trane.
And make sure plants and hedges are at least two feet away from the air conditioning unit.
Also, clean filters and grills monthly. And be sure to seal and insulate every duct.
DiClerico says, "Up to 30 to 40 percent of energy can escape through leaks when ducts aren't finished."
Another energy saver-use a programmable thermostat and set the temperature higher when you're out of the house.
Consumer Reports' survey turned up more interesting information-homeowners who hired the installer themselves versus those who let a home builder do the hiring had significantly fewer repairs.
And once your system is installed, Consumer Reports says it's important to get it inspected by a professional at the beginning of every cooling season to avoid repair problems.

NASHVILLE — The National Rifle Association has endorsed U.S. Rep. Scott DesJarlais, R-Tenn., over Democrat Eric Stewart in Tennessee's 4th Congressional District.
In a letter to its Tennessee members, the NRA's Political Victory Fund said the Jasper physician "earned an 'A' rating by fighting for your firearms freedom in congress, and now he needs your help to ensure our second amendment rights and hunting heritage are protected,'" according to a release from DesJarlais' campaign.
The NRA praised DesJarlais for his support of gun lobby group's "National Right to Carry Reciprocity Act." The bill would have allowed anyone with a valid concealed handgun permit to carry their firearm in any other state that does not prohibit concealed carry.
Stewart, the NRA said, voted against Tennessee's so-called "guns in bar" law, which allows permit holders to bring their weapons into restaurants that sell alcohol provided they do not drink.

Let's start here: No one begrudges Logan Morrison for wanting to wear the Marlins' No. 5 jersey and honor his late father. Tom Morrison's heartfelt story during his son's first major-league summer, and Logan's work for children with cancer since then offer the best and most human side of sports.
What can Logan Morrison know about No. 5 being retired once upon a time, anyhow? He certainly didn't know Carl Barger, the Marlins first president for whom the number is retired.

Fans of that high, lonesome sound will find plenty of company this weekend in Lookout Valley. And that's just counting musicians.
The 23rd annual Boxcar Pinion Memorial Bluegrass Festival will feature 17 bands over three days. An unofficial tally of the acts puts the number of musicians at around 75. And that's not including performers in the Folk School of Chattanooga showcase nor the informal jam sessions by shade-tree pickers.
In addition to top regional acts, including host band The Dismembered Tennesseans, the festival will feature four acts that have recently claimed top industry prizes from the Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass Music of America and the International Bluegrass Music Association.
In 2012, the Lonesome River Band band picked up an IBMA win for Instrumental Recorded Performance of the Year for "Angeline the Baker," and Sammy Shelor claimed his fifth Banjo Player of the Year award.

Re: i'm not alone
Hi Freddie, I just wanted to say that I don't think your back looks bad at all. I can totally understand about the pain issue but I would say that I had this surgery for scoliosis and pain and it was really the pain that spurred me into the operation, which I now regret severely as I am in tons more pain, more problems than before and unable to live my life as I used to, let alone work. Just be sure that you are doing it for the right reasons and not just to please other people because the outcome can be a lot worse than you have now. Sorry, just being honest. xx

Den Haag, Nether...
Inspired by a picture from 1951, I drafted the pattern for this dress with a dramatic flounce in the front skirt. I made it in cotton flannel with a small white-on-black check.
More pictures and the full story at my blog
Nov 24, 2013, 09.42 PMby vasso1981
the dress is perfect!!!how can I find the sewing patterns?
Nov 26, 2013, 08.52 AMby lauriana
I made my own pattern.
I have made a tutorial on how to make that flounce/drape and posted it here: http://petitmainsauvage.blogspot.nl/2013/10/how-to-draft-flounce.html
You can use that on any normal skirt pattern. To make a dress like this, you'll need that tutorial and a basic dress with a waist seam, a shirt-style top and a straight skirt.

Acclaimed New York designer
"Jeans and a T-shirt have become establishment," Mr Thom Browne says. "Everyone's dressed down. So actually putting on a jacket is the anti-establishment stance." This sums up the philosophy of Mr Browne's men's line, which has a strong base in tailoring with a playful, and at times subversive, edge.

Howard Stern Tries to Have Phone Sex With Octomomby Free Britney at . Comments
When Howard Stern had the creator of dial-a-star (dot) com on his show this week, the conversation quickly turned to the roster of peeps that can be called directly for a fee.
Yes, there is a site offering this. And Nadya "Octomom" Suleman is one of the people.
Howard, naturally, decided to dial Octo up and talk dirty to her. Think NSFW dirty talk people. But, sadly (or luckily), Nadya wasn't up for phone sex. Listen:
Stern shouldn't be too surprised, really. For an individual who birthed 14 kids, she shows a striking lack of interest in all things vagina. It's uncanny.
This is a woman who would rather go on welfare and get death threats than do one porn scene for a million dollars. She's just not that into the sex.
He is totally disgusting!
Why not just leave them alone. I cant decide on who is the biggest dirt ball.
This man is one DISGUSTING Human being and should no be allowed behind a mike!! and this is the new judge on Americas Got Talent?
I say good for her for keeping her standards even in hard times! Not many people can do that!

It seems with so much information flying around about going green and dire environmental forecasts, many of us are overwhelmed and don't know where to start. Well, let's get back to some more basics for being a little more eco-friendly.
Remember, small steps are the key to long term success. Maybe you can walk, bike or use public transit a few days a week. Or better yet, see if your boss will let you work from home, or if not, at least carpool with a friend.
When it comes to food, there are four ways to be more ecologically friendly through sustainable food systems: eat local, eat seasonal, eat organic, and eat less meat. Meat is requires huge amounts of resources to produce including water, grain and land.
Your furniture and décor say a lot about your personality. Visit a local flea market for a great buy on used furniture.
Around your house, turn off lights in areas not being used, install water-saving shower heads. A month-to-month breakdown on your bill will help you track your improvements as you use less and save more.

T-Mobile iPhone 4 to prompt old mobile phone recycling?
Individuals who have had their eye on an iPhone 4 may be interested to hear T-Mobile is now stocking the smartphone.
People who want to purchase one of the handsets could recycle their old mobile to raise the money to pay for Apple's latest model.
The device has a five-megapixel camera with a flash and can also record videos in high definition.
And the handset also has access to more than 200,000 apps, including the new iMovie offering that has been specially created for iPhone 4 users.
Vice president of T-Mobile Propositions Lysa Hardy said bringing the phone to UK consumers is a "fantastic move for T-Mobile".
"With a range of value plans we're making iPhone 4 more accessible to even more customers in the UK," she added.
Earlier this week, mobile operator Three announced it will stock the iPhone 4 in its stores throughout the UK and people will also be able to purchase the handset online.

What experiments are we running?
Tue, 07/05/2011 - 10:02 — Daniel Lombraña...
Tue, 07/05/2011 - 10:02 — Daniel Lombraña...
Thu, 08/11/2011 - 09:22 — Daniel Lombraña...
We are already processing real data which is submitted to a central database. Please, see the full explanation of the project experiments.
Thu, 08/11/2011 - 09:26 — Daniel Lombraña...
All the work units are designed to run for a fixed period of time of 24 hours. The difference appears in the amount of work done inside the virtual machine.
Mon, 10/17/2011 - 11:13 — Daniel Lombraña... (Updated July 2013, BS)
We recommend to exit BOINC before powering off the computer, because the VBox Wrapper will capture that exit signal, and will try to save the virtual machine and avoid canceling the WU. This is not necessary when suspending or hibernating the computer.
Wed, 12/14/2011 - 11:51 — Daniel Lombraña...
We are using Herwig++, Pythia 6, Pythia 8, Sherpa and Vincia.
Tue, 07/05/2011 - 11:03 — Daniel Lombraña... (Updated July 2013, BS)
If you want to see what is going on in the Virtual Machine:
1. If you are running the new "VBox Wrapper":
(Non-Windows users can download and install a free RDP client such as CoRD for Mac OS X, or FreeRDP for Linux).
(NOTE: "Show VM Console" will only work if you installed the VirtualBox Extension Pack for your version of VirtualBox. Remember to quit BOINC before you update VirtualBox or the Extension Pack).
2. If you are running the old "CernVM Wrapper":
In the terminal output or in the web application you will see the output of different Monte Carlo event generators (Herwig++, Pythia 6, Pythia 8, Sherpa, Vincia).
There is no screensaver provided (or planned) for Test4Theory.
But you can see many of the computed results via a friendly web application which is provided in the virtual machine. In order to see the results you will have to press the "Show graphics" button in the BOINC Manager (if you are using the new VBox Wrapper) or (for the old CernVM Wrapper) open the following web page: http://localhost:7859/
For more details, see "How can I see the progress of the experiments?".
Here you have an screenshot of it up and running:
Wed, 07/25/2012 - 09:41 — Daniel Lombraña... (Updated July 2013, BS)
The average CERN job run time is around 1 hour, including the delays between downloading/uploading libraries, results, etc.
So, taking into account that each BOINC Work Unit will be running in your computer for 24 hours, on average each BOINC Work Unit will simulate in your virtual machine around 20 CERN physics jobs, or about 2 million collision events.

November 28, 2014
After a quick motions hearing Friday morning, opening statements in the murder trial for James Emerson are expected at 1pm Friday.
Emerson is accused of the murder of Rhonda Mertes.
The hearing was about statements Emerson made to police during four different interrogations between 1999 and 2007.
The prosecution and defense had agreed to what can and can't be used as evidence and testimony during the trial before the hearing began.
After some questions, the judge gave his approval as well.
Prosecutors say Emerson beat Mertes to death in 1999 after luring her to a vacant area of downtown Wausau to try to sexually assault her.
He was arrested in 2007 after forensic tests put his DNA at the crime scene.

I would not reccomend this item as a useful blanket. It is more of an oversized pashmina than a blanket. I wish the description would have said "pashmina material" or "this cahmere". This is a good blanket to throw over a chair or couch for decoration. I ordered this blanket as a gift and was very disappionted.
Love my travel blanket! I travel for a living...It's the perfect size...fits in my tote and just covers me...not too bulky...attractive as well...
The word "cashmere" can throw you off a bit ... Not as soft as some of the cashmere I have & can look more like a shawl than a throw :(
This is not suitable if you are only looking for warmth, but it makes a great show blanket. I have it as a throw on my bed and it looks great. It's a little thin, so you won't be able to use it keep you warm on really cold nights.
I bought one for me and one for a friend to use on planes. It's a perfect size for this and is incredibly soft and yummy. Folds up for easliy putting in your carry-on bag. I think the insert said it is 45" x 60". The blue color is a true royal blue. I can't wait for my next trip to wrap up!

NYIT's Office of Financial Aid recognizes that to understand the process of obtaining financial aid, the accurate and timely dissemination of information to the consumer is critical. Several policies have been implemented to ensure appropriate dissemination is accomplished. Under federal financial aid program guidelines, schools must annually provide a notice to all enrolled students describing the availability of consumer information. Disclosure requirements are as follows.
Financial Aid Program Information Availability
Financial aid programs that are available to students attending NYIT are distributed through the following documents:
Additional resources are distributed through the Office of Financial Aid, including:
Procedures and Forms Required to Apply
The requirements to apply for financial aid are published in the NYIT catalogs, on the NYIT Web site and in all NYIT financial aid publications. In addition, notices announcing deadlines and application availability are distributed on flyers throughout the campuses and are printed in the student newspapers.
Information regarding the following topics is located at NYIT's Web site:
According to the Higher Education Opportunity Act (HEOA), NYIT is required to comply with the following requirements pertaining to Consumer Information and the dissemination thereof:
NYIT Statistics
Crime Statistics
On October 1 of each year, NYIT publishes an annual campus security report. The report contains:
Drugs and Alcohol
Cost of Attendance
Rights and Responsibilities of Federal Student Aid Recipients
As a student financial aid recipient, it is your responsibility to:
1. Complete and submit application materials to the appropriate agencies within required or recommended time frames.
All incoming undergraduates should complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid ("FAFSA") for the 2013 - 2014 year. Families can use "estimated" tax information to complete the FAFSA form. However, you should return and update the FAFSA once you submit your final return to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
Currently enrolled students should complete the FAFSA no later than May 1, 2013 in order to receive priority consideration for all available need-based aid programs for the 2013 - 2014 year.
New York residents must meet all deadlines set by the New York State Higher Education Services Corp. (HESC) for the Tuition Assistance Program (TAP).
2. Read all materials sent to you from the Office of Financial Aid and other agencies awarding you aid. Read, understand, and keep copies of all forms you sign.
3. Know and comply with the rules governing the aid you receive. These rules include but are not limited to:
4. Provide additional documentation, federal tax return transcripts, W-2's, and any additional information if requested by the Office of Financial Aid.
5. Comply with the provisions of any promissory note and all other agreements you sign.
6. Complete the registration process each semester by the end of the drop/add period in order to ensure availability of all student aid funds you have been awarded.
7. Use student financial aid proceeds solely for direct educational costs and related living expenses.
8. Know the implications that dropping a course or withdrawing from NYIT will have on your student financial aid.

Who Will Send You a Bill?
The U.S. Department of Education is your student loan lender if you received Federal Direct Student Loans while a student at NYIT. If you also received loans through the FFEL Program (through a local lender or servicer), chances are they have or will sell your student loans to the U.S. Department of Education.
Under provisions of the Ensuring Continued Access to Student Loans Act, lenders have the option to "PUT" (sell) loans to the U.S. Department of Education (DOE). Lenders must notify borrowers if their loans have been sold to the Department of Education.
We have been notified by the following lenders that they intend to sell or have already sold their loan portfolios to the Department of Education:
Chase * Citibank * edamerica* Key Bank * Total Higher Education ("THE") * Wachovia Education Finance * Wells Fargo * All Sallie Mae Lenders
You will be able to check if your loan has been sold by checking your records on the National Student Loan Data System.
Contact information for the Department of Education's Loan Servicing Center:
Borrower services are available 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. EST, Monday through Friday
Please carefully review all correspondence that you receive from a lender. Several members of Congress are currently investigating lenders who have been accused of deceptive marketing tactics.
Special Programs:
Loan Consolidation Programs:
Federal Student Loan Consolidation Programs
Federal Student Loan Consolidation Programs have been popular in recent years. With all of the changes in the federal student loan programs during the past few years, we would anticipate that more students may want to utilize this program so that all of their loan accounts are consolidated with one lender.
FinAid: The Smart Student Guide to Financial Aid has a series of calculators which will let borrowers estimate their monthly payments under the loan consolidation program versus all other repayment plan options.
The Greentree Gazette has compiled The Student Loan Buying Guide, a comprehensive database with information on financing options through many major lenders.
How Aid Is Applied to Your Bill
Government Grants and Institutional Scholarships
Once you accept your financial aid offer, any NYIT merit scholarship funds will be credited directly to your account shortly after the end of the drop/add period. If you have completed all the required processing steps for a Federal Pell Grant and/or Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, it will also be credited to your account after the end of the drop/add period.
Federal Perkins Loan
A Federal Perkins Loan will be credited to your account after you sign your Master Promissory Note where you accept your legal obligation to repay these funds. One half of these awards are credited each semester. NYIT will not credit these funds until after the drop/add period.
Federal Direct Loans
If you receive a Federal Direct Loan, the Department of Education will send the funds directly to NYIT each semester for one-half the amount borrowed minus fees. Students applying for their first Federal Direct loan are required by law to complete an entrance interview session before receiving the loan proceeds. Sessions must be completed online.
Federal Work-Study
Federal Work-Study earnings are not credited to the students' accounts; students are paid by check bi/monthly. If you have been awarded and have accepted Federal Work Study funds, report to the Office of Student Employment once classes have begun. You should plan to have sufficient funds available to meet incidental, personal expenses until you receive your first pay check.
New York State Scholarships Programs
These awards will remain "tentative" until NYIT and the New York State Higher Education Services Corp (HESC) confirms your eligibility.

What is the Art in Action Program?
The Art in Action program of the National Museum of Wildlife Art is designed to provide Museum visitors with access to contemporary artists and their techniques and encourage active participation in the art making process.
Program Description
Artists will work in Johnston Hall, a central gathering place for visitors, as well as outside on the Walter Hood designed Sculpture Trail and amphitheater. Artists will create an intimate atmosphere where museum visitors can learn about the artist's specific medium and participate in hands-on art making projects. Artists are also invited to exhibit finished works in the Museum's rotunda to enhance the visitor's understanding of the artistic process from the very beginning of an idea to a completed work of art. The goal of this program is to create a unique interpretive experience for visitors through meaningful interactions with artists and materials, while also connecting to the Museum's current exhibits.
Artists participating in the Art in Action program will be onsite working with the public from 12-4pm during their stay at the museum. Typically, this is for 5 days. The influx of visitors will vary day to day, and artists are expected to spend the majority of their time actively engaging with visitors and inviting them to participate in hands-on art making projects. This is a great opportunity for artists to gain high exposure with the diverse audience that visit the National Museum of Wildlife Art and the national parks surrounding it.
Artists are invited to participate in the Art in Action program for a minimum of one week and up to one month during July and/or August. Artists will be given a stipend depending upon the duration of their residency and possibly a travel or housing stipend for their time in Jackson, WY. Artists are responsible for their transportation to and from Jackson, WY.

Open: An Autobiography (original 2009; edition 2010)
by Andre Agassi
Work details
Open by André Agassi (Author) (2009)
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I don't usually read sports bios especially sports I know very little about and wouldn't watch on TV to save a limb; however, after reading just a few pages I was hooked. Open is a narcissistic tour deforce of Andre Agassi's tennis career from the early years of a hard driving father to the final retirement game sprinkled with lots of syrupy stuff about Steffi Graff. What makes it work is it is extremely engaging and relational (now whether this is due to the ghost writer or actually Andre I didn't care because it made the ride enjoyable). Some things I learned along the way. Line judges in tennis are thin skinned and a bit prudish. Surround yourself with good people and invest in them. You can succeed even if you hate what you are doing. It's never too late to tinker with your game. Once you've got the fundamentals and conditioning down then don't think just act. I'm intrigued by his love of Shadowlands. I think he should have let his father and Stef's dad duke it out. Even though his faith is mentioned I wish he would have explored it more. It was just the right amount of tennis talk for the uninitiated even though there were a few terms he should have defined for those that know nothing about the sport.
You know how sometimes when you read an autobiography, you really feel like you'd want to sit down and have a beer with the author? Open is not one of those autobiographies. Don't get me wrong - Agassi seems like a decent guy. But he's not an outgoing guy, and he's not a warm guy, and he seems like a pretty neurotic guy. It's not really surprising considering the upbringing he had, but I still don't really see him being much fun to hang out with.
I grew up watching tennis, so I remember Agassi coming on the scene. I remember the infamous Canon commercial he did with the tagline "Image is everything." I remember the hot pink bike shorts, the hair (or hair piece, as it turns out), the earring, the denim shorts, Brooke Shields. For me, a lot of the stories in the book were like a walk down memory lane, but with the ability to see them from a different angle. It was great to get Agassi's insight into these moments, because usually there was a lot going on underneath that the general public had no idea about. He starts off by explaining that he hates tennis - not in any of the myriad ways you might take that coming from a professional tennis player, but really *hates* it. His father was obsessed with the game, and obsessed with having a champion; when Andre's three older siblings failed in various ways, the job fell to him. Eventually, his life reached a point where he had to consider a couple of things: he was good at tennis and he didn't have the skills for anything else, so he might as well try to make a go of it.
Although there is no moment where he completely changes his view of the game, he does come to a truce with it, and even finds that there is pleasure in there somewhere, although not the type that most athletes might describe. Agassi is downright surprised when he feels elation at winning a Grand Slam. He's both open and distant; willing to delve into his emotions and failings, but unable to see far beyond his own immediate sphere. Somewhat surprisingly considering all the press their rivalry got, he talks only occasionally about Pete Sampras. On the other hand, they were both pretty reserved, so it doesn't seem like they spent a lot of time in conversation together. Agassi doesn't seem to like Sampras all that much, either, but when asked he says that yes, he would consider Pete a friend. This is the weakness of the book for anyone looking for insight into dynamics between the players or insight into life on the tour as a larger picture: Agassi lives inside his own head most of the time, and aside from that with a small group of trusted friends, rarely venturing outside of that bubble. But if you're more interested in Agassi himself, or how someone who reached such heights could do it without even liking what he was doing, this is the book for you.
A great read - especially if you followed tennis during the last 25 years. I didn't realise how many years he played for or how many slams he won. I knew he made a comeback and seemed to a changed person. The book is well written and he is honest about his lies - if that makes sense. Its starts near the end and then re-starts again from the beginning. Some great insights about sport and life - well worth the read.
I had a mad crush on Agassi when I was a teenager. Sat in Wales, UK in a little flat watching Wimbledon instead of going to see Shakespeares birth place with my family etc... But I had no real idea what I was watching, I just liked the intensity of it. This book was a page turner to me and despite critics who dislike his "rebellious" style or say he sold himself to marketers, I found him to be decidedly un-shallow. In fact, for someone so "unschooled" he has some brilliant observations-notably how people kept saying he was changing his style when he points out that he was just trying to find it. They vilify him when really he is just coping with being under such constant pressure and exposure to the world. He points out a truth that people miss:for people who want to find their best and be most fulfilled, it is a long road and just as you can't look at a 6 year old and give a final verdict on what he'll become, you can't make that final jugdgement about a 20 year old. Life is so much longer, hopefully, than it ever seems. I am a sap and love that he married Stephanie. I watched the youtube video of her acceptance speech, I believe for some hall of fame thing, and it was touching. There is more to Agassi than people say. Maybe he's slightly egotistical, but wouldn't most people be in his position. At least he's not robotic like some tennis players or a pretty boy like Federer who doesn't even sweat. Note:If you *don't* enjoy tennis, you will find this boring. There is a lot of talk about each match.
I never would have picked this book up if it weren't for several different people's recommendations. I don't follow tennis, or much sport at all, for that matter. But what a great read! Honest, raw and compelling, this is a memoir about Life which happens to have a bit of tennis in it.
"Open" is one of the most passionately anti-sports books ever written by a superstar athlete — bracingly devoid of triumphalist homily and star-spangled gratitude.
Somebody on the memoir team has great gifts for heart-tugging drama.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0307268195, Hardcover)From Andre Agassi, one of the most beloved athletes in history and one of the most gifted men ever to step onto a tennis court, a beautiful, haunting autobiography.
Agassi's incredibly rigorous training begins when he is just a child. By the age of thirteen, he is banished to a Florida tennis camp that feels like a prison camp. Lonely, scared, a ninth-grade dropout, he rebels in ways that will soon make him a 1980s icon. He dyes his hair, pierces his ears, dresses like a punk rocker. By the time he turns pro at sixteen, his new look promises to change tennis forever, as does his lightning-fast return.
And yet, despite his raw talent, he struggles early on. We feel his confusion as he loses to the world's best, his greater confusion as he starts to win. After stumbling in three Grand Slam finals, Agassi shocks the world, and himself, by capturing the 1992 Wimbledon. Overnight he becomes a fan favorite and a media target.
Agassi brings a near-photographic memory to every pivotal match and every relationship. Never before has the inner game of tennis and the outer game of fame been so precisely limned. Alongside vivid portraits of rivals from several generations—Jimmy Connors, Pete Sampras, Roger Federer—Agassi gives unstinting accounts of his brief time with Barbra Streisand and his doomed marriage to Brooke Shields. He reveals a shattering loss of confidence. And he recounts his spectacular resurrection, a comeback climaxing with his epic run at the 1999 French Open and his march to become the oldest man ever ranked number one.
In clear, taut prose, Agassi evokes his loyal brother, his wise coach, his gentle trainer, all the people who help him regain his balance and find love at last with Stefanie Graf. Inspired by her quiet strength, he fights through crippling pain from a deteriorating spine to remain a dangerous opponent in the twenty-first and final year of his career. Entering his last tournament in 2006, he's hailed for completing a stunning metamorphosis, from nonconformist to elder statesman, from dropout to education advocate. And still he's not done. At a U.S. Open for the ages, he makes a courageous last stand, then delivers one of the most stirring farewells ever heard in a sporting arena.
With its breakneck tempo and raw candor, Open will be read and cherished for years. A treat for ardent fans, it will also captivate readers who know nothing about tennis. Like Agassi's game, it sets a new standard for grace, style, speed, and power.

I do NOT recommend this product!!! I experienced a horrible burning sensation! At first I thought it was just tingling, like regular products do,but no it's not like that at all!! When I wiped it off, I has horrible discoloration to my face, you could see exactly where I had applied the cream. And I had horrible irritation and redness. I literally cried, at the way my face looked after taking it off. I will NEVER use this or any associated product again!! I DO NOT recommend to anyone!!
I have been using this product for a week now.Day one it had a burn sensation day to same thing. Byll day for i saw results. Due to my hetic days i wasnt able to apply the crwam every day but i alwys try yo apply it befofe gp to bed.While I was asleep last night I woke up to scratch my face cause it was very itchy. I woke up this morning looking like a Pitbul with bumbs all over my face...I Know its the cream that did this because the bumps were only visible in the areas of my face where the cream was applied. I dont know what to do should I continue to use it.
I've been using this product for a few days now... not every day. But I did notice once I started using it, it has a burning sensation, but it makes you feel like its actually doing something... but I haven't used it recently because I've noticed that my whole face has little bumps all over... I don't have terrible acne but I've got enough to where it bothers me.. and I've enjoyed using this product because I feel that it works but I don't know if I need to keep using it because of all the little bumps all over my face... does anyone have any suggestions?
I am an older women with adult acne. I would not even take pictures. I tried all the big name products and none of them worked for me. I have battle with this adult acne for seven years now. I went into a dollar store and decided to try Dr. Sheffield Clear Zit Acne Cream. One reason was because the box reminded me of the old ways of the south any way i tried it and within a couple of days i got results three weeks later i"m ready to take pictures again. I and my husband will be taking our first picture together. I just wanted to thank you for giving me life back giving me my smile back. Great product.
I love this product! I had been using proactiv and it was working but it was drying out my skin. (Not good!) So I switched to this product and it really works! The only down side is the burning sensation. If you need acne gone fast this is great! My acne was better after my first use!
Best acne product out there! I now have a clear face and feel great.
This has to be one of the most affordable, and most effective products I've ever used. I have horrible acne (well its not bad but if it hurts your self-esteem its horrible) and I've been on the regime for about three months, it was working but i wasn't clear, plus I was spending a ton of money buying all the products each month (Dan your shipping prices need work) So here's my new, affordable, effective regime that will get you acne clear in a month or less
1. Salsic Acid cleaser
2. Dr.Song 2.5% BP (Sooooo much cheaper than Acne.org's and feels/looks the same)
3. Dr. Sheffield's Clear Zit Acne Cream (night only)
4. Moisturizer mixed with AHA (only mix with AHA at night)
Do this and you will be acne fee in no-time
Recently I switched face washes and my skin did not approve! I broke out in horrible, painful, huge pimples that rivaled any teenagers pizza face. Well, desperate, I started a new facial care cleaning regimen last night. It was absolutely dirt cheap (less than $10 for all of it) so I had absolutely no hope for any real success, I just hoped I could avoid breaking out more and ride it out until the horrible painful pimples went away on their own.
To my absolute shock, after one night my face is almost completely clear and the horrible, huge, painful pimples are tiny and don't hurt at all! I must have stumbled across a miracle! My face has seriously never felt so clean!
I used the DG black head cleanser ($3 at dollar general) first last night and this morning followed both times by Dickenson' all natural witch hazel ($3 at Walgreen's). I used the clearzit ($1.50 at Dollar General) only last night after the face wash and witch hazel and it did burn, but nothing I couldn't handle. I didn't notice any drying and didn't need to use a moisturizer this morning. I'm very happy with how these products work together! Yay!
It really works fast but it's burning my skin. Now I have spots all over my face.
My mother n law has been trying to get me to use this cream for years she gave me a tube and its been in my bathroom for months. Well today I finally used it I have no results yet; but I hope this burning sensation means it's working and not that it's burning my skin off. More results coming soon.


text: SEC Commissioner Kicks Off Unofficial Start to College Football Season at Media Days Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 16 Jul 2013 post a comment SEC Commissioner Mike Slive kicked off the unofficial start to the college football season with his annual "State of the SEC" address at SEC Media Days in Birmingham, Alabama on Tuesday. Of course, he bragged, noting the "SEC won its seventh straight BCS national championship, finished the regular season with six teams ranked in the top 10, the first conference to accomplish such a feat in the history of college football, set a record with 63 NFL Draft picks, more than double that of any other conference, and an SEC football player was awarded the Heisman Trophy for the fourth time in the last six years." The conference has reached unprecedented heights under Slive, but he also touted the conference's academic record, saying "three of the last four academic All‑Americans of the year came from the SEC, namely Barrett Jones in 2012, Alabama's Greg McElroy in 2010, and Florida's Tim Tebow in 2009." "And, the SEC had 10 first‑team academic All‑American recipients, five national football foundation scholar athletes, and nine representatives on the American Football Coaches Association Good Works Team," he added for good measure. And then he called out the NCAA, potentially signaling that it may soon be irrelevant when it comes to governing the "power" conferences when in college football. He also said he wrote NCAA President Mark Emmert on behalf of of the SEC presidents and chancellors to urge the NCAA to organize and spearhead a "four-part national effort" on studying concussions, which includes conducting further scientific research, determining "best practices and standards of care for the prevention and treatment of concussions," disseminating the information to NCAA member institutions and " continue to review and revise playing rules in football and other sports as new research and new information on concussions becomes available as we revise and refine best practices." "The point here is that the issue of concussions is not limited to one conference or one region," he noted. "We all share the concern about the overall health of college football and its participants across the entire country and within each NCAA division." Slive also said the NCAA was not doing enough in helping athletes with the cost of the attendance and said outdated recruiting policies would need to be examined. "The NCAA has not been successful in meeting the full cost of attendance of our student‑athletes, whether through the so‑called miscellaneous expense allowance or some other model that provides broad access to additional funds," he said. "Conferences and their member institutions must be allowed to meet the needs of their student‑athletes. In recent conversations with my commissioner colleagues, there appears to be a willingness to support a meaningful solution to this important change." He then spoke about the state of recruiting and the outdated rules ill-suited for the modern age. "Facebook, Twitter, text messaging, early recruiting, club sports, cell phones, Internet access, distance learning, 3‑D printers will continue to become more and more commonplace," Slive said. "The current regulatory approach would be more at home in the era of Johann Gutenberg's printing press than in our current fast‑paced technology‑driven society and will no longer serve to functionally govern recruiting behaviors moving forward." Alluding to the recent controversies surrounding Aaron Hernandez, a former Florida player, and Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel, Slive said, "At the same time we talk about our successes on the field and in the classroom, we cannot ignore the recent off‑the‑field incidents involving both current and former student‑athletes." In subsequent interviews, he said he did not think any conference would ever break the SEC's current streak of seven consecutive national titles, comparing the record to Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak.

Johnson's retirement hurt ALL college footballPosted Thursday, July 15, 2010, at 2:31 PM
Coach Bobby Johnson's unexpected retire left a big football void not only at Vanderbilt, but also in college football everywhere.
Johnson, in my humble opinion, represented what college football should be rather than what the game has become in recent years.
Forget his overall and Southeastern Conference record while he was head coach at Vanderbilt. I honestly believe he got as much or more from his available talent as any coach in the SEC. That opinion is based on the number of top high school athletes he couldn't, and rightly so, even consider.
Would he even have wanted to coach at a school where athletic ability was tremendously more important than character?
Showing most recent comments first
[Show in chronological order instead]
Just another die hard Vols fan with a ton of repect and admiration for a man like coach Johnson. In an atmosphere where players and coaches alike with talent are often given a free pass for their lack of integrity and character, men like Bobby Johnson are the rare exception to the attitude of "win no matter what the cost." He will indeed be missed.
-- Posted by Tim Lokey on Sat, Jul 17, 2010, at 12:40 PM
I agree with everything being said. I have always been a Volunteers fan but really have admired Vandy and Coach Johnson for what they represent. I love watching his teams play, and they give all they have for him. He will be sorely missed. Go Sewanee Tigers, YSR!
-- Posted by eglnation on Fri, Jul 16, 2010, at 6:46 PM
I absolutely agree! Coach Johnson was not only a great coach but an amazing role model and mentor for his players and for football as a whole. He also brought respectability and integrity at Vanderbilt and turn the program into a legitimate threat for any team they played. In the world full of Lane Kiffins and Nick Sabans, it was comforting to know that people like Bobby Johnson still existed who believed in hard work and discipline and being a man of honor and integrity. I will definitely miss him at Vanderbilt and can only hope the new coach is half the man that Johnson was.

Coach Johnson was just as you said. He put the players and the university ahead of everything else. He also made Vandy very competitive. Of the 66 losses, 27 were by 7 points or less. He will be missed by all of Vandy Nation as well as all of college football
