Grumpily swimming into thread because of morning mucus attack. Bleah.
(((all kvetchies with periods))) I still remember the agony. Good news- all the parts were yanked 5 years ago. There are many advantages to that- no cramps, pain, fibroids, endo, cancer scares, expense on pads/tampons, "accidents", feeling like total bloated shit. The disadvantages are the hormone hell and the changes in body shape, mood, menopausal symptoms, and risk of osteoporosis. But I'll take the disadvantages any day. ((mando)) sorry about the cancelled plans, dear. Hope something new springs up for you this week to look forward to. And that it happens! ((sidecar)) can relate to your "drowning." I have been the human pin cushion for several times in my life and all the docs tell me I don't have allergies. So why the fuck do I fucking drown and sneeze all fucking year???????? My med of choice was nasonex, which worked pretty well, but since my surgery, I've been unable to take it. Interestingly enough, Benadryl gives me a huge buzz- opposite from the drowsiness. Hope you are feeling better soon. ((morning)) healthy boobage vibes ((Tes))) Work vibes. And oh, I saw the pictures of the shrimp on your lj. ZOUNDS. ((((pixie, rose, star, syb, plum, candy, bunny, pink, sonik, all kvetchies everywhere)))) Kvetch: Ok, had my first setback in 3 weeks. Fuck. Was laid up on Sunday and yesterday at work was a chore. Probably did too much exercise on Saturday- my core muscles were so weak I had trouble sitting up and was mildly short of breath. Shit. Anti kvetch: Feeling a little better today physically. Hard to find an anti-kvetch. Just feeling plain grumpy. |

Must. Share. Cuteness.
TallKid at lunch yesterday: "Where's my Plumwine?" Me: "Where's Auntie Plumwine?" TallKid: "Yeah, where'd she go?" Me: "She's at her house in Houston. She lives 5 hours away from here, that's a long way. Do you want to see her?" TallKid: "Yeah." Me: "Do you want to go visit her, or do you want her to come and visit you here?" TallKid: "Want her to come visit up here." Me: "Ok hon, I'll tell her." And there you have it. 2 1/2 years old, highly articulate, cute as the day is long, and missing Auntie Plumwine. -------------------- One day... one day there will be peace in my heart, order in my head, and simple silence all around. I just hope I live to see it.

But I know what will make you feel better: The Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show! It starts tonight! Hooray! Can't wait to see the corgis tomorrow. They are the best! Which reminds me.

Ohh, I know lots of places in New York. Def. my favorite place to go for a quick holiday (for me, anyway; it's a $100, 1.5-hour flight and I have a a couple places to stay in Manhattan even!); honestly, it's a quite romantic city and given the exchange rate, it won't seem too expensive to you. I'll PM you when your trip gets closer.
I took a Benadryl to stop my nose from running and have spent the last hour and a half trying to stay awake. Honestly, I feel kinda high! The worst part is my nose hasn't stopped running! ((((mando)))) it sucks when plans fall through like that. and being the only person around during vacation is the suck. *tackles txplumwine, channels inner Southerner* "Y'all come back now, y'hear?" |

Aaaaaaw ... how cute that so many of us are in the red tent together! Makes me feel a teensy bit better, although I still feel like cursing, "Fuck you, Flo!!!!!!" Uuuuuuugh. Sooooooo crampy. Lots o' bleeding. I have so much I need to do (company will be here in 4 hours), but I bleed so much more when I'm active, so I keep having to sit down for breaks. Bleeeeeh. And for some reason, last night I felt compelled to watch movies that make me cry: The Muppets Take Manhattan and then Philadelphia. Granted, each film inspires its own kind of tears, but still. I was a weepy weepy Rose. Uuuuuuuugh. At least it's Sassy's birthday, so that's worth celebrating! Woot!!!! |

These guys cheer for the whole conference? Yup, they do. As the Tide and their pals won five straight national championships, something happened to modern SEC fandom. The SEC fan roots for his school, of course. But he also roots for his conference, and, in an interesting, New South kind of way, his whole region. The thing historians used to call southern exceptionalism — and its first cousin on its mother's side, southern solidarity — has been channeled into a football fight song. Chanting "S-E-C!" is the last polite way to root for the South.
Listen as "S-E-C!" rings throughout BSC-dom. Oregon got a chorus from LSU Tigers fans Saturday night — a sequel to the SEC chant Auburn fans laid on them at January's title game. LSU players chanted it at Ohio State after the 2008 title game; Florida Gators fans chanted it at the Buckeyes in 2007. Proving everybody can taunt somebody, Kentucky gave the "S-E-C!" to East Carolina at the 2009 Liberty Bowl. SEC pride has outgrown football. "You can imagine how grating it is when you hear the SEC chant all the time," a woman named Valorie Kondos Field remarked last year. She is UCLA's gymnastics coach.
After the national championship each year, the SEC fan rushes to message boards to make sure the three magic letters have been uttered. "No SEC chant Bama?" an LSU fan wondered after the 2010 title game. The next year, it was up to a Bama fan to ask, "Did Auburn do the SEC chant?" The South's football teams can whip anybody — this the SEC fan knows. But he worries his neighbors will forget to remember to rub it in.
How'd we get here? It all starts with the Civil Wa I know, I know, but, trust me, this story gets more interesting than that. After the final gun sounded on Reconstruction, northern schools had a jump start on their southern counterparts in football. (A typical score from 1890: Princeton 115, Virginia 0.) Religious critics in the South argued against the "football craze" because it was unsafe, immoral, and fundamentally a Yankee thing. To counter that, the South's colleges began the "southernize" the game. The bands played "Dixie." LSU's Tigers were named after soldiers who fought in the Civil War.
The phenomenon of southern football swagger probably dates to the 1926 Rose Bowl, when Alabama faced off with Washington. This was an accident: Alabama was invited only after several teams declined. "I've never heard of Alabama as a football team," historian Andrew Doyle quotes a Rose Bowl agent as saying. But after the Tide's three third-quarter touchdowns won the game, they became symbolic champs for the whole South. Auburn students gathered on campus to follow the game — even though Auburn and Alabama had stopped playing each other due to mutual loathing. "Alabama," Vanderbilt's coach cheered, "was our representative in fighting for us against the world."
That sounds a lot like the spirit behind the SEC chant. And as historian Michael Oriard has shown, every South-versus-North matchup thereafter became a fantasy football Civil War. "The Georgians might have been charging up the slope at Gettysburg again," one sportswriter squealed after UGA upset Yale in 1929. When a southern team knocked off a northern foe, it was said to have exacted revenge on the Yankees. If the South lost, well, let Grantland Rice tell it: "It was a magnificent charge in a lost cause. It was Pickett at Gettysburg. It was an outclassed team, physically, giving everything it had." That lede should have been burned along with Atlanta.
For a long, terrible period, the South's football pride manifested itself as racism. Football became a blocking scheme to protect Jim Crow. "The South stands at Armageddon," Georgia's governor declared in December 1955, when an integrated Pittsburgh Panthers team was set to play in the Sugar Bowl. (They played anyway.) Southern teams refused to play integrated squads even in the north; they segregated their home stadiums. When judges struck down the segregationist laws, many SEC schools kept their squads all-white anyway. It took Bear Bryant until 1970 to recruit a black scholarship player.
By the 1980s, the SEC boasted national champs, NCAA sanctions, and bumper stickers that read "Herschel Walker Is My Cousin." But there was still no SEC chant, no conference-wide brotherhood. "I don't have a recollection of anybody caring about anybody this way," says Paul Finebaum, a Birmingham sports radio host.
What happened? First off, the SEC just got really, really amazing. SEC schools won the past five BCS titles, showing not only the conference's quality, but its deep bench. The old "southern inferiority complex" became the rest of the nation's. Now, college message boards whine that the media are hopelessly biased toward the SEC. ESPN and Rivals.com are accused of handing out Heisman hype, a boost in the recruiting rankings, and a mandatory slot in the BCS title game.
Structural factors nurture SEC fandom. CBS broadcasts nationally televised SEC games every Saturday rather than regional games, giving the conference a gather-'round-the-flat screen experience. Moreover, the SEC maintained its geographic identity as other conferences have lost theirs. Before next year's likely addition of Texas A&M, the SEC's last two invitees were Arkansas and South Carolina.
The hosannas once heaped on southern warriors are now heaped on southern football players. They're faster than anybody else, or so we hear. Last January, after Nick Fairley pushed over Oregon linemen with his pinkie, they became physically stronger, too. "The difference in this league and all the other leagues is defensive linemen," Florida's Will Muschamp told an Alabama paper this summer. After finally beating an SEC team in a bowl game this year, Ohio State fans — told for years their guys were slow, wussy, etc. — mounted a mock SEC chant.
In the new SEC, it is NCAA compliance officers who are the carpetbagger bad guys. They're taking away what's ours Last year, the NCAA came for Cam Newton and came away with Cecil. Now agents are circling Baton Rouge after learning of LSU's payments to alleged Texas street agent Will Lyles. "Hating the NCAA is one of the things that binds the SEC together," says Harvey Jackson, a history professor at Alabama's Jacksonville State University.
As the New South gets newer, there's an urge to embrace old things. Blue-collar comedy. "Real" country music. A unified Dixie that beats its chest and does the moonwalk. Yet society has evolved to the point (thank goodness) where this urge can no longer manifest itself as a Lost Cause, a segregated Sugar Bowl, or a mascot named Colonel Reb.
When the SEC started winning national titles, it rebranded southern pride for the 21st century. "For southerners that like to have solidarity," says Jackson, "football gives us a place where we can do it and can't really be criticized for it." The SEC chant is galling not only because it's right on the merits, but because, for once, it's politically correct.
Texas A&M fans have declared their school is going to "SECede" from the Big 12. But is A&M a good cultural fit for the SEC? I put the question to the radio host Finebaum. "No," he says. "Not at all. It feels like Mississippi State West."
The Aggies argue they'll grow the SEC's "footprint" and build recruiting wagon trails into Greater Houston. The problem is they're a slap in the face to SEC pride. Texas A&M — with a lone AP national title in 1939 — isn't any good. "Aside from the fact they're ranked high right now, they have sucked for as long as I can remember," Finebaum says. "Wasn't somebody else available, like Oklahoma or Texas? Someone that matters?"
The tight-knit southernness the conference has nurtured is being threatened by Texanness. As Finebaum puts it, "This is a fraternity, OK? I don't think the upper echelon of the fraternity — which would be Florida and Alabama — are going to be real happy about a bunch of cowboys showing up at a rush party."
For the first few years, A&M likely will be only a part-member of the SEC. Sure, it'll get a Saturday slot on CBS and the right to an annual beatdown at the hands of Alabama. But it'll stand outside the New South winner's circle the SEC has carved out. It's a nightmare, believe me. As a college football fan, there's nothing worse than hearing "S-E-C!" and realizing, with a mix of hate and envy, that they're not talking about you.

A Gadsden woman is behind bars for allegedly assaulting a Wal-Mart employee while trying to steal from the store. Police say Nephretaria Walker, 32, attempted to leave the East Gadsden Wal-Mart without paying for several items on Dec. 16, 2012. When a loss prevention officer confronted her, police say Walker charged and cut the employee in the chest or collarbone area with "some type of object." Officials did not specify what kind of object was used in the alleged assault.
Police officers arrested Walker on Thursday, Jan. 3 on outstanding warrants stemming from the incident. Walker now faces charges of first degree robbery with a bond of $50,000 and third degree assault, which carries a $1,000 bond. She's in custody of the Etowah County Jail.

If prosciutto isn't available in your area, very thinly sliced deli ham can be substituted. Make sure to pat the ham dry with paper towels before cooking it. The ham may not become as crisp and chewy and may remain in larger pieces. Another substitution is 6 slices of crisply cooked bacon, crumbled.
This robust, full-flavored salad would be delicious alongside grilled steak or lamb chops.
Prosciutto is a dry-cured Italian ham that is usually sliced paper thin. It can be found in the deli area of most large supermarkets, at meat markets and at Italian markets.

Macular degeneration is the leading cause of blindness in people over 55. For those with end stage disease, there has been virtually no chance of seeing what is directly in front of them again. But a new device, an implantable telescope, is changing that. Retired nurse, 76-year-old JoAnn Zorn, had the device implanted in her left eye this summer. Now she has a critical part of her vision back.
Her left eye now twinkles. Light reflects off the tiny telescope implanted where her lens once was. It has brought back the central vision she lost to macular degeneration.
"The area that allows for central vision to watch TV, read a book, drive a car is called the macula when that macula is destroyed by an age related process there's essentially a hole in people's vision," explains Dr. Stephen Lane of Associated Eye Care.
"With the blind spot in both sides, both eyes, I would really have to get up close to see someone's face," says Zorn. When implanted, the telescope magnifies central vision tremendously so while there is still a blind spot, patients see much more of what is directly ahead of them.
""Non-telescope eye basically sees things in the periphery and the telescope eye sees things centrally," says Dr. Lane. It takes months of rehabilitation to learn to use each eye differently.

Something that all dogs need: Exercise, Walks & Mental Stimulation!! Pooky's club was originally established in 2003 as a "cockers" only meetup.

Soon thereafter, people started contacting me saying that they didnt have a cocker, but could they come pleazzzze? So effective 2006 I changed it to Pooky's All Breed Dog Walking Club!

Here are some that I use and recommend. I have no financial ties to them. I buy them from Amazon, Vitamin Shoppe, Lucky Vitamin, and Vitacost- depending on what's on sale. I'm sure there are others but this my research.
The kicker is that some of these same companies when you change to another dose say a greater IU of Vitamin D or Kelp they add soybean oil, soy lecithin, or olive oil so read the labels carefully!
Also the Rainbow Light Organic Men's formula has a trivial amount of iodine 55 mcg/4 capsules whereas the Womens' has 75 mcg/4 capsules and Prenatal has 150 mcg/4 capsules.
1) Rainbow Light Certified Organic Womens, Mens, and Prenatal formulas/4 capsules daily are Free Of: Artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners, preservatives, sugar, lactose, gluten, yeast, milk, eggs, soy, nuts, fish/shellfish and wheat.
2) Citracal Plus 2 tablets/day includes Vitamin D3, zinc, magnesium, copper, etc.
3) NOW Zinc Picolinate 50 mg/tablet Free of: sugar, salt, yeast, wheat, gluten, corn, soy, milk, egg or preservatives.
4) NOW 150 mcg Kelp (Iodine)/tablet Contains no: sugar, salt, starch, yeast, wheat, gluten, corn, soy, milk, egg, shellfish or preservatives.
5) Carlson Cod Liver Oil/Fish Oil (both Lemon and Regular Flavor) liquids and capsules EXCEPT Very Finest Fish Oil SOFTGELS or Fish Oil Multi No gluten, corn, milk, soy, yeast, sugar, salt, preservatives
6) Nature's Bounty D3 400 IU/tablet - NO artificial color, flavor, sweetener, preservatives, sugar, milk, lactose, soy, gluten, wheat, yeast, fish, sodium
7) KAL Magnesium Orotate 200 mg/2 tablets daily Does Not Contain: Yeast, wheat, corn, milk, egg, soy, glutens, animal derivatives, sugar, artificial colors, starch or preservatives.
Answer by Nutritionator 5337 · Oct 22 '11 at 09:21 PM
Been trying to do the same, I love my Now Foods Vitamin D3.
Ingredients: D3 from Lanolin, olive oil, gelatin, glycerol, water.
Right on the back, "Contains no sugar, salt, starch, yeast, wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, shellfish or preservatives."

All soy in the US is genetically modified. For those of us who are highly allergic to soy, even a small amount and we break out in hives with an allergic reaction. Soy in this country is not as benign as touted. The problem is that soy is in everything, so you are getting more in your diet than you realize. If you don't believe, start checking labels.
Answer by jules 3 1 · Nov 05 '11 at 10:31 PM
I'm trying to find capsules that are certified free of soy also. Mega Foods vitamin supplements are certified free of dairy, gluten, and soy, but most of their vitamins are in the tablets form only. I have a hard time taking tablets and prefer capsules. That is why I am looking for soy free capsules! It is hard to find because eventhough Now Brand products (and empty capsules) read "Does not contain soy", they still process soy in the facility and maybe even on the same line. Even with the company following GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices), they still cannot certify to be free of an allergen unless they test for it. That's why Now Brand products and most all others read "Does not contain soy" because "soy" was not specifically added to the formula rather than labling as "Certified free of gluten, dairy, and soy". The only Company certifying this on their lable is Mega Foods!
Answer by Linda 7 1 · Jan 04 '12 at 06:04 PM
Elizabeth is right--I am highly allergic to soy and am looking for vitamin supplements without soy, which is very difficult to do for most retail brands.
Answer by Kasra 47 · Jan 04 '12 at 07:24 PM
As the only thing I regularly take, I present to you NOW Foods Vitamin D-3 (5k IU)
Only ingredients are D-3, gelatin, and olive oil, which beats the safflower oil in my last supplement.
Answer by Benjamin 1 53 · May 02 '12 at 02:57 AM
they also use false names to put soy into foods as well. Magnesium stearate is a common name for soy in medicines and vitamin supplements Idk if anyone else has had problems with it, but I have such bad reactions to the soy that even if animals were raised on it I get an allerigic reaction from eating the meat : O

I take synthroid and soy is just one contraindicative ingredient I should avoid.
Answer by Roe 1 1 · Mar 28 at 03:11 AM
It is in everything - soy, soy oil, letchin - now they are getting smart and calling it vegetable oil. - You will need to contact the company to confirm it is soy oil - also they will say soy or corn - since soy is cheaper - guess which one it usually will be. -- so you need to work really hard to be soy free - please do not forget you pets - Even the supposedly healthy brand have soy - my poor dog is allergic and i did not figure out it was the soy for years. She would scratch constantly. Now I give her soy free food - then they started having problems with all the flax seed in food .
Both flax seed and soy are estrogen alternatives - you really need to understand how bad this is for all of us - we are feeding it to our children - developing children boys and girls - if I had a son , I would be terrified and as a girl, they will have much more risk later in life if they develop too early.
Please spread it out there and tell everyone you tell to promise to tell ten people and those tell ten people, etc - we don' t have the money of the soy industry , but we have to try.

I just can't believe how good this is. I told my wife last week that it was the 1 year anniversary of Smoked 'n Grilled on June 25th, and she surprised me with this 4 pound burgundy pepper spoon roast.
The reason for this choice of meat is that this was the first thing I smoked a year ago just before creating Smoked 'n Grilled. I must say I'm much better at smoking now, and it turned out even better than the first time 1 year ago.
Don't go looking for this at your local grocery store, because this is a specialty of a local grocery store chain here in Wisconsin. Not sure which other states may have Festival Foods, but this is a special marinade they make and they marinate it in a vacuum process that gets the flavor all the way through the roast. (No….not a paid promotion!)
It's called a spoon roast because it's so tender, you can cut it with a spoon!
No recipe needed here. All I did was smoke the 4 pound roast for 4 hours to an internal temperature of 155°. I used pecan wood chunks for the smoke. Just slice it and serve it up! Man, this turns out so tender and juicy!
Just look at that smoke ring! Mmmmmmm!

Yes, he does. The size of peas.
Make up your mind Mike. Just the other day you were lusting after some woman´s touche.
Yup, his eyes! made bigger by Botox!!
Given Hizzoner´s stature, I´m sure he comes face to face with them regularly.
I wouldn´t mind if Bloomie was all those things if he was only competent! But no, he´s just like most democrat mayors as shown by the deteriorating condition of so many of our once great cities. Reduced to dictating soda sizes while his city falls apart around him.
"...says what he believes" That means nothing.Even a babbling retard says what they believe.
bloomers suddenly sounding crass and crude.Either it´s early Alzheimer´s or he´s trying to prove he´s a guy and not a girl.
This morning´s "ew" moment.
If he is talking about the ones banging around in Biden´s head, then yes, Biden does have a set of balls. Marble sized.
In fact, he has three balls - two commonly associated with the male genitalia, the third mounted on top of his neck and fill illusions of self grandeur and horse manure.
Yes. They are made of granite and occupy his skull from ear to ear. Sometimes one wonders who is more stupid - the person making this idiotic comment or the subject. Close call.
Yep, small mushy peas.
Balls for brains!
I don´t know anything about Biden´s boys, but he´s probably hung like a field mouse if his brain is any indicator!
Did he catch him gulping down one of those extra large colas?
Captain Queeg had a similar set of balls.
And that´s all Joe has bouncing around between his ears. Splains´ a lot.
Bouncing against his chin.
Oh stop it guys, we had peas with supper last night.
Yes, he does. About the size of a BB rolling down the highway, just like you.Two crude moments in one week.

For all of you that thought Atlantic City massage parlors are the unspoken untouched gem, think again. There were 7 people arrested in a sex sting at two massage parlors in AC, on Atlantic Avenue non the less! This all happened last night at Solar Therapy & Span and Clover Stress Therapy. Let's just say everything was on the table, not just a bs happy ending.
Generally, you don't hear too many stings on massage parlors, but when you do – most of the existing parlors in AC tighten up what's allowable or not. As a result, for the next few weeks, you'll have better luck (and less hassle) with the Atlantic City escorts verses the massage parlors.
Or as I always try to mention, you can go the online routes with Arrangement Finders (mutually beneficial arrangements) or Ashley Madison (discreet encounters)

All students in need of financial assistance or interested in scholarships are encouraged to apply. For federal programs, you must:
By law, some students who have drug-related convictions under any federal or state law during a period of enrollment for which the student was receiving Title IV aid (grants, loans, or work-study assistance) may be ineligible for federal student aid. According to the law, if you are convicted of a drug-related offense, you may face these restrictions:
Any student who has lost eligibility for federal Title IV funds including grants, loans, or work-study assistance, as a result of penalties under 484(r) (1), will receive a separate, clear, and conspicuous written notice. This notice will notify the student of the loss of eligibility and advise the student of the ways to regain eligibility under 484 (r) (2) of the HEA.
A student whose eligibility has been suspended may resume eligibility before the end of the stated ineligibility period if either (a) the student satisfactorily completes a drug rehabilitation program and passes two unannounced drug tests, or (b) the conviction is reversed, set aside, or removed from the student's record.
Effective July 1, 2010, the HEOA adds a new provision at section 484(r) (2) (B) of the HEA that allows a student whose eligibility has been suspended due to a drug conviction to resume eligibility if the student successfully passes two unannounced drug tests conducted by a drug rehabilitation program that complies with criteria established by the Secretary of Education. Students must provide documentation of this completion to the Financial Aid Office.
The first step in applying for financial aid is completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). This may be done as early as January 1 after your tax returns are complete. Students are awarded on a first-completed, first-awarded basis, which means that early application is necessary if you wish to be considered for all possible types of aid.
You will need the following information before applying for Financial Aid for the 2013-2014 school year including Summer 2014:
Next, complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). You can do this several different ways: Option A (Preferred) –
Option B – If you do not have access to the internet, send the following to the Northeast Financial Aid Office for verification; your FAFSA will be submitted electronically by Northeast Community College:
Tax transcripts can be requested from the IRS online at www.irs.gov, at your local IRS office, by phone at 1-800-908-9946, or by downloading a paper request at http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506tez.pdf (this is a slower process but the only way the transcript can be sent directly to the school).
You will need the following information before applying for Financial Aid for the 2014-2015 school year including Summer 2015:
When your financial aid information is filed, a federal formula is applied to determine how much you and your family should be able to contribute toward your college costs. The Student Aid Report (SAR) from the Central Processor reflects the information submitted and will allow the college to determine your eligibility for all types of aid. Check your SAR for errors, giving special attention to items the Processing Center may be questioning. You can make changes to your FAFSA electronically, if necessary. Otherwise, if you received a paper SAR, enter the changes on Part 2, sign and forward all pages of the SAR to the Financial Aid Office at Northeast Community College. The Northeast Financial Aid Office will reprocess any corrections. DO NOT mail the SAR or other documents to the Central Processing Center.
The factors that determine a family's ability to contribute to college costs are: student and parent income and assets, total number of family members, number of family members attending college (excluding parents), age of older parent, and state of residence. The computation allows for necessary family expenditures such as taxes, reasonable living costs, and usual medical expenses, and protects a portion of a family's assets as a retirement allowance depending on age of older parent. A part of the remaining income and assets is assumed to be available for college expenses.
In accordance with federal regulations, the following formula is used to determine your financial need: Estimated Cost of Attendance (COA) (NOT your bill) - Expected Family Contribution (EFC) (NOT the amount you have to pay Northeast) =Financial Need The Financial Aid Staff will try to fill any need by awarding various types of aid. The Pell Grant is determined first, and then scholarships are added to the aid package. If funds are still available, you will be considered for supplemental grants and Federal Work-Study. Federal Direct Loans are added last. All financial aid is split between the fall and spring semesters.
Outside scholarships of $100 or more will be split between the two semesters unless otherwise stated by the donor.
The combination of federal state aid, institutional scholarships and outside assistance cannot exceed a Students Estimated Cost of Attendance. Aid will be adjusted accordingly.
All grants, scholarships, tuition waivers, and loans are credited to your student account with the Business Office on a semester-by-semester basis. After all Northeast costs for the semester have been paid from your account, a refund check will be mailed approximately fourteen days after the start of the term or completion of the aid process. *Federal Work-Study wages are not credited to student accounts. Students receive a paycheck every two weeks for actual hours worked.
There are alternatives for students who do not qualify for grant assistance or whose families need help meeting the family contribution. One alternative is the Federal PLUS loan. It offers parents the opportunity to borrow up to the full cost of education (less any student financial aid) each year. Repayment usually must begin within 60 days. Some deferment options may apply. There is no income restriction or needs test for the PLUS program. Federal PLUS loans do require a satisfactory credit check for loan approval. Contact the Financial Aid Office for specific details.
The basic premise of the financial aid program is that students and parents have the primary responsibility for educational expenses. If you are a dependent student, we determine your financial need using financial information provided by both you and your parents. If you are an independent student financial need is determined by your income and assets and, if you are married, the income and assets of your spouse. You are considered an independent student if you can answer yes to one of the following:
If the above conditions do not apply to you, you are a dependent student and must use your parents' information. If you feel that special circumstances exist, please contact the Northeast Financial Aid Office. **Independent status is NOT determined by your wish to be financially independent of your parents nor based on your parents' un-willingness to finance your college education.
Financial aid is awarded on an annual basis and no aid award is renewed automatically. You are responsible for reapplying each year. To apply for federal and state aid, you must file a current version of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Students renewing federal aid eligibility may complete a Renewal FAFSA online. Students who receive aid from a private agency or donor are responsible for completing any renewal documents the agency or donor may require.
If you have already done a FAFSA for the current school year, you do not need to complete another one, you just need to add Northeast Community College to the list of schools on your FAFSA. (Northeast's Federal School Code is 002556.) If you did your FAFSA on paper and received a Student Aid Report (SAR), it can be submitted to the Northeast Financial Aid Office along with the verification worksheet, 2012 tax transcript and W2's. Contact the Financial Aid office for more information. You must cancel your financial aid at your other school and you will be re-awarded at Northeast.
The Title IV Code is 002556.
Join the Northeast Community College Financial Aid Office as a fan!

Will Crude Oil Prices Fall In 2013?
Recent news from scientists of the British Antarctic Survey and partner research institutions examining ice cores showing the climate record for tens of thousand of years is that ice sheet retreat due to global warming often suddenly stabilises, "for decades to centuries", despite the warming still going on. This is also what is happening in the oil patch: all the supply-demand fundamentals say that prices should decline - but they stay high or go on growing.

Family Dinners
Carmine's – This family style restaurant is a place where you share Italian cooking with a side of great conversation. Order the penne alla vodka and be sure to save room for that Italian cheesecake!
West 44th Street between 7th and 8th Avenues
Dallas BBQ – It's easy to get lost in the neon of 42nd street, but even wedged on a block with Madame Tussauds and Spiderman, you won't miss Dallas BBQ. Kids meals, affordable dishes, and Texas-sized margaritas are just a few of the things that pack this eatery full. Make sure to get their honey barbeque sauce — they'll put it on anything for you if you ask right.
West 42nd between 7th and 8th Avenues
Vynl – Out of all of Manhattan, Vynl stands above every other theme restaurant with its combination of trendy and kitsch — case in point: each bathroom is themed after a celebrity musician. The atmosphere is as fun as the décor, and there's no beating the wall-size mosaic Dolly Parton in her bathroom. Order their mac n' cheese or the famous Vynl Burger.
9th Avenue between 50 and 51st streets
Elegant Eats
Sardi's – This two-level bistro is a Broadway institution. Here tourists and professionals meet among the famous caricatures of stage legends for a snack and to be seen. Sardi's has a pre fixe as well as pre-show dinner and post-show supper, so whatever you need, Sardi's will provide. (Featured in The Muppets Take Manhattan.)
West 44th Street between 7th and 8th Avenues
21 Club – A landmark in New York, the 21 Club continues to be a favorite haunt of the elite. There is a strict dress code and reservations are a must, but the pork belly is to die for—worth it! 21 Club manages the impossible by maintaining an impeccable fine dining environment without the unwanted stuffiness. $5 parking available with dinner reservations.
West 52nd between 5th and 6th Avenues
Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steak House – This world class steakhouse is a NY Magazine Critic's Pick and a Zagat sweetheart. Del Frisco's is everything you want a steakhouse to be — decked with woodwork and serving the finest in beef and seafood. Lunch, dinner, and cocktails available.
Sixth Avenue at 49th Street
Broadway Lounge at the Marriott Marquise – Perched above the lights of Times Square on the 8th floor of the Marriott Marquise, the Broadway Lounge is a fun, flashy bar with great service and stylish drinks. The décor is reminiscent of a convention center, but the view is brilliant.
West 47th between Broadway and 8th Avenue
Bamboo 52 – This trendy bar brings together my three favorite things: sushi, delicious signature cocktails, and a happy hour. But really, the drinks are the reason to hit this hot spot. Their Wasabitini and Basil Pear Martini can change your life. Or if you're feeling adventurous, have the volcano bowl!
West 52nd between 8th and 9th Avenues
The Library – Located inside the trendy Hudson Hotel, the Library is a stylish, warm little nook where your cocktails come with walls of books, billiards, and a roaring fireplace. With leather sofas, gilt mirrors, and laptops, it looks like old New England but operates like our Manhattan. This is a great, little-known place off the usual tourist radar.
58th Street between 8th and 9th Avenues (inside the Hudson Hotel)
Jazz at 59E59 – Post-show every Thursday night, the adorable Anderson twins play live jazz post show at 59E59's E:Bar, rated by Time Out NY as the number 1 theatre bar in the city. It's a little far East, but it's a gorgeous space and a fun night!
59 E 59th Street between Park and Madison, Post Show
Manic Mondays – Join NYC's Theatre Drag Queen du jour Showbiz Spitfire Paige Turner every Monday night at 11PM (11:30 drag time) at Bartini Ultra-Lounge for Manic Mondays. As with all Paige Turner shows, you can count on songs, games, and all the snarky musical theatre jokes she can muster! It's somewhere between a roller coaster and a train wreck, but you'll have a good time going down! $5 Drink Specials.
10th Avenue between 45th and 46th Streets, 11PM
Lush & Lively with DJ Dan Fortune – Every Friday from 6 – 9 PM at the New World Stages Time Out NY Lounge, DJ Dan spins a mix of vintage vocals, disco delights, and little known recording treasures from his immense collection of cocktail hour hits. $3 drink specials blend perfectly with the smooth songs to create an atmosphere perfect for pre-show or post-work!
New World Stages, 49th Street between 8th and 9th Avenues
Jimmy's Corner – Owned by boxing trainer Jimmy Glenn, Jimmy's Corner is dive bar with cheap drinks and a lot of character. The walls are covered with memorabilia, and you can get a Bombay Sapphire martini for only $7! You should stick to the beer, though.
West 44th between 6th and 7th Avenues
1 2 3 Burger Shot Beer – The name says it all. At this raucous watering hole, burgers are $1, shots are $2, and beers are $3. That's a good deal anywhere!
10th Avenue between 50th and 51st Streets
Whiskey Trader – This is a midtown sports bar with great deals on martinis, cosmos, and beers. Best of all, there's a giant tub of free popcorn; you can just dig in!
55th between 5th and 6th Avenues
In a hurry or looking to save a couple of dollars? Nothing hits the spot (or the wallet) like a $1 slice of pizza, and you can find these establishments all over:
99cent Fresh Pizza, West 43rd and 8th Avenue, beside Second Stage Theatre
99cent Fresh Pizza, Broadway between 54th and 55th, West side of the street
Z Deli, 8th Avenue between 48th and 49th
99cent Express Pizza at 42nd and 8th
99cent Pizza, 9th Avenue at 41st street
2 Bros Pizza, 9th Avenue at 40th Street
Of course Starbucks and McDonald's all over Manhattan have saved many a needy bladder, but here are a few other options for when you need to excuse yourself in Times Square. Here are some of our favorite loo's.
• The Marriott Marquis – There is a lovely loo on the second floor of this huge hotel. In addition to guest rooms, this building also has a theatre, restaurants, conference rooms, and bars, so nobody will think twice when you walk right in.
• The M&M Store – Go to the very top floor to find their bathrooms.
• Europa Café on 6th Avenue between 45th and 46th streets. The bathroom is to the left when you walk in the door.
And of course any hotel or bar will have a restroom, some are just easier to access than others. Word to the wise, NY health code requires a bathroom for any eating establishment with more than 17 seats.
All roads lead to Rome and all subway lines seem to lead to Times Square. The Times Square subway station at 42nd street hosts the 1, 2, 3, A, C, E, N, Q, R and Shuttle to Grand Central Station where you can grab the 4, 5, or 6. Entrances are to the Times Square subway station are located at intersections alone 42nd Street, 43rd Street, 44th Street, Broadway, and 7th Avenue. If you prefer the bus, your crosstown options are the M42 and the M50, on 42nd Streets and 50th Streets, respectively, and to go uptown and downtown, try the M104. If you're feeling adventurous, pedicabs are the pricey but kitschy way to go.
