Hey! Welcome, welcome, welcome! The Critique Corner has REALLY helped me improve over the past 11 months. Good luck on your art journey! Can't wait to see your work!
Hi all, nice forum! hope everyone is good. Not sure where to star by way of an introduction (im a little new to the whole forum thing) but here goes.
I have always been into drawing and comic books from a young age, but sort of gave up on it as i got older and life got more serious hehe. Im now 23 and i got into anime and manga about a year ago, since then it has kind of re awakened my love for drawing. i have been drawing for about 3 months now, it has been going ok i think but there are still alot of areas that i need to improve on. anyway i thought it would be cool to join up here to get some to get some tips/advice and maybe exchange ideas with some like minded people
Hi Benja, welcome to Manga Tutorials! It's good to hear you're getting back into drawing. It's tough sometimes getting back into the groove when you haven't been drawing in awhile... But anyways, aside from the Critique Corner, drop by the Drawing, Animation and Tutorials for any general drawing questions if you have any. : )
Glad to have you here! I hope you come to enjoy this place.

The programs include the Virginia Veterans Care Center in Salem and the Southwest Virginia Veterans Cemetery in Dublin.

The Health and Finance Ministries have invited Jerusalem's Shaare Zedek Medical Center -- which has become the capital's largest and most medically active hospital -- to run its financially ailing competitor, Bikur Cholim Hospital.
This was disclosed at a Sunday morning meeting of SZMC's annual international board of directors meeting, held at the medical center.
Bikur Cholim, which has 170 beds compared to SZMC's 730, has been suffering for the past decade from a "severe managerial crisis," said SZMC director-general Prof. Jonathan Halevy. This crisis included the purchase of Bikur Cholim's buildings by Russian oligarch Arkady Gaydamak. Halevy told the board meeting that the ministries chose his hospital for this task, but that while there were both pros and cons to take over Bikur Cholim (but not purchasing it), there was a "50-50 chance" that SZMC would actually do it,The Jerusalem Post learned.
"The ministries told us that they chose us in view of our relatively stable financial situation, location and our vast activity in deliveries and neonates, We went into Bikur Cholim's books, using a professional company, to see the financial risks. We are continuing negotiations with the government, which would provide us with funds." Halevy added that while the Bikur Cholim edifices are "beautiful from the outside, this is not the case with the infrastructure inside. Only recently, old pipes burst. The buildings go back almost a century."
Among the potential benefits of SZMC taking over Bikur Cholim would be that it would have a total of nearly 1,000 beds and be among the largest hospitals in the country; not have to spend its own money to do so; would receive some of the donations that Bikur Cholim used to receive but that nearly dried up because philanthropists did not want to give to a financially troubled institution; would have a "stronghold in the center of town"; and it would have a total of 21,000 profit-making deliveries a year.
But Halevy said that the cons included "Bikur Cholim's poor infrastructure owned by Gaydamak; our own currently inadequate managerial resources to run it; and an inadequate number of medical staffers due to the shortage in the country. We will agree only if the ministries satisfy our financial and operational expectations," the director-general said.
In any case, Halevy produced a "very optimistic" report for the board members from Israel and abroad.
Independent comparative statistics have shown that SZMC has become the city's largest and most medically active hospital, significantly ahead of Hadassah University Medical Center in Ein Kerem or its counterpart on Mount Scopus, and of course, Bikur Cholim.
SZMC totaled 100,000 emergency room visits in 2010, compared to 75,000 in Ein Kerem and 60,000 on Mount Scopus, and the trend continues. Two decades ago, SZMC had only a quarter of its current total. By the end of this year, Halevy predicted, the figure will rise even higher, to 114,000. Bikur Cholim's emergency visits are down to 22,000 (previously 25,000).
The number of babies born at SZMC is three times that of any other Jerusalem hospital and the highest in the country, now surpassing Soroka University Medical Center in Beersheba. SZMC performs twice as many operations today as a decade ago. But at the same time, it is not well known to people in Tel Aviv and beyond.
"The reasons for his medical center's success in recent years, he said, are its "very dedicated staff, with a warm doctor-patient relationship of caring plus high-tech medicine," and a senior medical staff with many "stars," some of whom were imported from Hadassah. Halevy also told the board that it expects within a year or so to have eliminated the SZMC's deficit and no longer to have to use donor money for hospital operations.
He added that while SZMC performs some procedures, including surgery, on foreign tourists, it would put less stress on medical tourism than other Israeli hospitals so it could continue to give priority to Israelis. "We may reconsider this as our new Next Generation building [for maternity, obstetrics and other departments] is fully complete in 2014," he said. The new building, seen by all who enter the main building, will add more than a third more space.
Donations from foreign and Israeli contributors are up, starting to bounce back after the world recession of 2008/9 that severely hit the American-Jewish sector. Donations from the UK are second to US contributions, he said. Just as the Hadassah Medical Organization received money from the Treasury to help build its hospitalization tower, Shaare Zedek will receive $10 million for its development projects as well, Halevy said.

SIDNEY, Ohio – Authorities in Ohio say a man who ordered a gun safe online opened it up only to discover 280 pounds of marijuana inside.
Shelby County Sheriff John Lenhart in western Ohio said the safe was made in Nogales, Mexico, and that it was sent by truck to Ohio.
He said the marijuana has a street value of $420,000.
Federal authorities who are investigating said the truck driver who brought the shipment into the United States is now missing.
The Ohio sheriff said that truck was carrying a full shipment of safes, but none of the others contained any drugs.
He said the safe with the marijuana was delivered to Ohio in June, but authorities have kept quiet about it while they looked into how the safe got into the U.S.

Table of Contents

St. John's College believes that the way to a liberal education lies
through a direct and sustained engagement with the books in which
some of the greatest minds of Western civilization have expressed
themselves. To that end, the college offers a four-year all-required
program in which students read, discuss, and write about the
seminal works that have shaped the world in which we live.
There is no other college quite like St. John's. Here, there are
no lecture courses, no textbooks, no written finals, no departments,
no research professors. Instead, the college offers small discussion
classes, books that are classics, oral examinations, a single interdis-
ciplinary program of study for everyone, and teachers who are called
tutors rather than professors—one for every eight students.
St. John's considers a liberal education to be a process of
unmediated discovery that leads as much to self-knowledge as to
knowledge of the world. It maintains that direct and honest encoun-
ters with timeless works are everyone's birthright and can free us to
see our world more clearly. The main prerequisites: an openness to
the new and a sincere desire to know.
It is not uncommon to wonder whether such an education—
based on sustained and shared inquiry—is possible. "It sounds too
good to be true," is a frequent first response. In the following pages,
you will learn how the St. John's programunites several modes of
learning in an environment of rare collegiality and collaboration,
and how the curriculum builds upon itself to create an integrated
whole over four years. In the process, you will see both what makes
this education possible and why many consider it essential.
How is
St. John's
What is themeaning of the college's seal?
The Latin motto on the outside edge of the seal (see this booklet's covers) means
I make free adults out of children by means of books and a balance." In the center,
seven open books represent the seven traditional liberal arts of grammar, rhetoric,
logic, arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy, which in turn surround the
scale, representing modern science.

View Full Profile Weight Loss Seems Simple The Atkins Diet The Pritikin Principle The Zone Diet The South Beach Diet Eat more, weigh less: The Ornish Diet Jenny Craig Nutrisystem Weight Watchers Lose Weight, and Keep It Off Weight loss seems simple A calorie is a calorie, the advice goes. Eat too many ... gain weight. Eat fewer ... lose weight. But many believe weight loss is more than a calorie equation, with so-called new-and-improved ways to lose weight being ever popular. Americans spend an estimated $42 billion annually on weight loss foods, products, and services. With that much money at stake, it's no surprise there are an overwhelming number of "fad" diets and other weight-loss products on the market. Having so many diet options makes it difficult to know which ones to trust. For this reason, The Partnership for Healthy Weight Management has developed the "Voluntary Guidelines for Providers of Weight Loss Products or Services." The mission for these guidelines is to "promote sound guidance to the general public on strategies for achieving and maintaining a healthy weight." According to the guidelines, effective weight management involves: Behavior modification that includes: Dietary intervention Healthful eating in accordance with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans A reduction in calories A lowered fat consumption An increase in fruit, vegetable, and whole grain consumption Physical activity Increased frequency At least moderate intensity Medical, pharmacological, and surgical intervention: May be necessary for people with more serious cases of overweight and obesity Have to be used in conjunction with behavior, diet, and physical activity modifications It is important to look for a plan that includes strategies for maintaining weight loss. There is nothing worse than regaining the weight that took you an enormous amount of hard work and patience to lose. Most popular diets are considered fad diets. There is no clear definition for what constitutes a fad diet. Merriam-Webster defines a fad as "a practice or interest followed for a time with exaggerated zeal." Fad diets often promise quick results with a short time commitment. Long-term success requires permanent changes in behavior, diet, and activity. Ways to spot a fad diet: It claims fast weight loss Claims that sound too good to be true Foods defined as "good" and "bad" Less than 1,000 calories daily A required vitamin/mineral supplement or food product Elimination of a major food group (grains, fats, meats, dairy, fruit, vegetables) Lack of long-term randomized scientific studies proving the diet works and is safe. A randomized study distributes participants in a deliberately random way into either the non-tested diet group or the special diet group. Some fad diets state there is research to support their claims, but the research is only done with a few people or does not exist. Elimination of an essential nutrient (carbohydrates, fats, proteins) No activity or exercise needed It's written by someone with no expertise in weight management The following review examines the advantages and disadvantages of several popular diet plans. Many of the diets emphasize the restriction of one nutrient as the basis for their plan. The other food groups and nutrients are allowed in limited or unlimited quantities, depending on the plan. Weight loss is impossible without a calorie restriction, so each diet has to provide fewer calories than your body needs to maintain your weight. Any diet that claims otherwise can end up causing weight gain. Various diet plans are summarized below to help you learn to review them for safety and effectiveness.

RIP Ed Rasimus
Major Ed Rasimus of the blog Thunder Tales has departed the fix, after a valiant fight with cancer.
If you're not familiar with his award winning books, Ed was a veteran fighter pilot of the Vietnam war, flying more than 250 combat missions in F-105 Thunderchief and F-4 Phantom II fighters during the conflict and received the Silver Star, the Distinguished Flying Cross five times, and numerous other Air Medals.
He always had a kind word and support for me in this little blog venture and I was honored to have him visit here.
Ed's generation and later, mine, began on round gauges, and round engines. for which starting was an artistic endeavor requiring holy curse words and sometimes meditation. We would speak as if old lovers of some of our early aircraft for which landing was not so much a meeting with the earth but a ballet of finesse, prayer, body English and nerve. We know the smell of sweat and JP4, the campfire aroma of engine exhaust, the warning red of Skydrol and the blue of the sky over the Poles. We hear and see every little thing, from that imagined miss in an engine as we fly over the north Atlantic, to the banging, belching, manly fart of a Pratt and Whitney as we roar down the runway at full power.The young ones have no such memory, yet are busy making their own, being front row participants in technology our generations only dreamed of.
Pilots speak a language handed down from generation to generation and only slightly understood by their non flying partners. We banter about EPR and Mach and HUD and Pickle Pause and Pull. But when it's time for the mission, the cockpit quiets and the concentration is almost tactile. For though we have tasted the insulation of the sky, we know too well the adrenalin surge of danger. We respect the power of the atmosphere and we know what it means to fight for control, of the plane, of what we believe in, and that is the uncommon faith in what we can do, what we are doing.
But as calm as the enroute segment might be, we never truly relax, for just as strongly as we believe that a pilot is always a pilot, earthbound or not, we believe in the capriciousness of the sky and know that every day brings a chance of facing something yet unseen, something not in that textbook or flight manual, that will pit out countenance against the red line of fate.
But there's the beauty- the quiet mornings as the sun peeks over the horizon on that early flight to the east coast, the beautiful surroundings of a fog draped landscape below. It's evocative and inspiring and sometimes, despite the time away from family and the dangers, the joy of it all reaches out and grabs on to us. And despite the occasional bone weariness and the constant change of the job itself, the happiness takes hold. The happiness is like nothing else we experience, not even the wonderful sanctuary of family, and it grabs hold of us and shakes us like a playful puppy. And we can't imagine being anyplace else.
We are airmen.
We know the overwhelming beauty of a Pacific sky as the sun seeps into the deep purple horizon, and the pristine beauty of the sun's reemergence after a long Atlantic crossing. We have seen the tiny blips of the satellites that help guide us, track across the vast gateway to heaven, we've felt the incalculable force of a thunderstorm over a fierce green jungle. We have worshiped at the alter of a sun stroked morning, prayed into the beauty of a dark velvet night, spun robes of clouds, the candlelight of dawn. We've lifted up our cup in grace in the sanctity of the stratosphere.
We've danced along the northern lights, seen water spouts in clear air, banners of ash from an active volcano, horizontal rainstorms, microbursts of fury and St. Elmo's fire. We've seen things no one would believe, things only a pilot will experience and we're hooked on it, not for the glamor of it, and certainly not for the pay. We're hooked because there is a reasoning beyond ego and beyond anything but that we need this freedom as an essential element of our being as we wake each day
As a group we are strong, driven, defying mortality tables of other professions, yet we head to the visit with the flight surgeon with all the trepidation of the family pet headed off to the vet for the first time. We are fiercely individualist, yet bonded together, family people at home and aloft. We compete with good spirit, yet bond with courage, we celebrate our successes and mourn our fallen Gone West.
Thank you Ed, for the inspiration, the stories, the courage, and the honor of your many years of service.
Fair Skies and Tailwinds.

Thank you for for remembering him. I was always so humbled when he commented on posts, especially my rare flying post, my little adventures so pale in comparison to what he did. It meant a lot to me.
Many of us here enjoyed his wit, his spark, his intellect. He will be missed. - February 1, 2013 at 10:58 PM

That is sad news and too soon, but at least we have his books: powerfully and honestly told stories from a life worth reading about, which fortunately he wrote about.
Dare we hope that his next of kin will find a draft of a third installment of his memoirs? His postings on rec.aviation military always made it seem as though his post-Vietnam USAF career, though perhaps lacking in the inherent drama and unity of theme of the war stories, was interesting in its own right. - February 2, 2013 at 7:59 PM

RIP Ed. A great tribute to a great man.
Oh, and thanks for posting the picture of my old office, 021. She was pretty good as SLAR birds went. Spent many hours beside the best men and women pilots in the Army. - February 7, 2013 at 6:32 AM

Laura B - tragedies all the way around, people that just wished to serve and help others.
Kevin - I'm glad you noticed. She was, and is, indeed cool. Thank you for your service, with some of the finest. - February 7, 2013 at 9:45 PM

WidowPC's gaming laptop aims to poison Dell
Gaming laptop specialist WidowPC is gunning for Dell big time in an old-fashioned Texas shootout.

Samsung Galaxy's a better phone? Look at this comparison. I would say they are very close. The bottom line is... Majority of consumers always go for the better name. Huawei is still new in the smartphone industry. But I think they will out beat other leading brands very soon with the quality budget style. Remember when HTC first launched with android, we was like "HTC"? Today they are know to majority of consumers.
I think Huawei need to avoid doing what HTC did at all costs. My last phone was an HTC Hero, flagship phone when I first got it, they dropped it like a hot potato within months. They were an OEM manufacturer that had ambitions to become a 'brand' like Samsung and Apple, but they flooded the market with an endless array of models without building up a proper back-end and support infrastructure. Look at them now, struggling to compete with Samsung and Apple and a share price at a 12 month low.
I can see Huawei doing the exact same thing if they aren't careful.

text: | The Hobbit is coming, at last!November 26, 2012 - Stephen BrowneThe Marshall 6 website says "The Hobbit" will premier in a midnight showing on Thursday, Dec. 13. Oh boy, for Tolkien junkies this has been a long wait indeed. It's hard to believe it's been about 11 years since the first installment of "The Lord of the Rings." I know it is because my son, now 11, was a baby when it came out. My apartment in Warsaw is eight floors above the entrance to the Kino Bajka movie theater where we saw "The Fellowship of the Ring." "Kino" means cinema in Polish, and "Bajka" very appropriately means fairy tale. We had arranged to put the baby down, and have my sister-in-law stay over while we attended the midnight show. We had bought advance tickets - and then discovered we'd made the idiot mistake of going to the midnight of the next day. Midnight marks a new day you know. So we had to see it in shifts. Same thing for the second part. We saw it in London while staying at my sister's apartment, taking turns while the other stayed up with a now very active toddler. Saw "The Return of the King" in Warsaw, and wondered, "What do we do now?" Well now we have another decade or so of Tolkien movies. Of course I'll review it, and I'll have some controversial things to say about them (from a safe place in hiding of course) but given Peter Jackson's track record I really don't think we have anything to worry about. And believe me, given the disappointing Ralph Bakshi attempt, and the disastrous but mercifully forgotten Arthur Rankin abomination, some of us had reason to be worried before we saw Fellowship. But here's the cool part, my children will get to experience the series more-or-less in story order. I'll take them to see "The Hobbit" and they'll be able to catch "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy on DVD, or maybe special showings in the theater once "The Hobbit" is out. I don't know when that's going to be though. When we got the video and played Fellowship we had to turn it off at the battle on Weathertop amid the ruins of Amon Sul. My son freaked when Frodo was wounded by the Nazgul and started crying "Frodo, Frodo!" He still hasn't seen the trilogy all the way through. Yeah, it was that scary. My son is old enough, and a monster movie junkie, so no worries. My daughter is only six though... we'll see. Article CommentsNo comments posted for this article.

text: The Phantom of the Opera, Broadway's longest running musical, hits a major milestone tomorrow when it has its 9,000th performance at the Thursday night performance. This makes The Phantom of the Opera the first Broadway show ever to play 9,000 performances, a pretty stunning achievement. The history-making performance was actually celebrated today following the matinee in a special curtain call presentation. Phantom opened on Broadway at the Majestic Theatre in 1988 and was an immediate smash hit, but nobody could have imagined that the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical would still be running over 20 years later. Now in its 22nd year, the show continues drawing both Broadway newcomers and fans who enjoy seeing the musical again and again.

Genre: Adventure, Reality
Premise: After a three-day crash course in fundamental survival skills, nine amateur hikers, campers and outdoor enthusiasts are flown into the rugged Alaska interior, given part of a map and some basic tools and told to hike to civilization -- ideally before harsh and potentially deadly winter weather sets in. It sounds like ``Survivor,'' but with a big difference: The participants signed on, not for a million-dollar prize (there isn't one), but simply for the chance of a lifetime to challenge themselves in tough yet breathtakingly beautiful terrain.

Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
My wife & I are thoroughly pleased with the teaching and the standard our this preschool. It is refreshing to have a place that really cares about your children. We were first nervous with the new management but all our fears have been put to rest. We also love how they accommodate our requests as parents. This is a first class operation!
My daughter has been at this preschool for two years, and we couldn't be happier. The teachers are well-educated and caring, and my child performs at an academic level which is well beyond the "standard" found at other preschools. She loves going to school, which was something that was missing before we came here. I also appreciate the emphasis the school places on independence and personal responsibility. The campus is big and beautiful with lots of trees. There is ample amount of parking, so I can just drop off and leave. I believe I have said enough. :)
My eldest is in class 5 and Mr. Ian & Ms. Rhea are exceptional and show a great understanding of the Montessori methods and philosophies. My younger daughter is in Class 2. Ms. Erica is an exceptional head teacher and Ms. Karen and Ms. Diljeet are patient and understanding. The school is always clean and orderly. Ms. Sara, at reception, is wonderful with a really cheerful disposition. Ms. Aurelia is the curriculum director and makes it her priority to meet with parents and listen to any feedback or concerns they may have. Ms. Kiran, the school director, is excellent and always present on site, she is very approachable and with small children of her own she completely understands every parents needs and wants for their own child. It can often be a tough decision to make on what school to place your child in. We are very fortunate that L&PM Niles has worked out so well for us. Our girls are happy, they learn a lot and most importantly they have fun and come home with huge grins ready to tell me all about their day. I would most certainly recommend L&PM in Niles to any prospective families looking for a safe and nurturing environment for their children.
The review I am posting is for the Niles Branch of Learn and Play Montessori. The school has good location and good teachers, but bad management. Teachers are treated badly, as a result there is a high turnover. I would like the teachers to spend time teaching in the class and not have to do pots and pans, laundry, etc. They are always understaffed. I would not recommend them at all.
All in all L&P Montessori has exceeded our expectations with our 2 year old son. He has been attending since he was 18 mos. Almost immediately we noticed a difference in his language and motor skills. He has developed skills that we have often thought possible more capable of a 3 year old. They work diligently with the kids, spending much time focusing on developing as many skills as possible. The only down side is that I wish they would try to uphold the Montessori method more (which is why they received 4 instead of 5 stars...allow the kids to explore and develop rather than push). All in all they are a great school that I would highly recommend for any parent attempting to give their infant or toddler a leg up. I am not sure why this parent below thinks these good reviews are fake...there isn't a huge teacher turn over at the Maple location...maybe at the other locations. There are issues at any school, you cant expect perfection. Especially with small ids. You also have to communicate issues with the directors to expect results. I know anytime I have a problem I speak with them and the problem gets resolved almost immediately. Just a suggestion.
My three year old son goes to Learn and Play Montessori Preschool and he loves it. He loves his teachers and so do we. We get daily updates and progress reports. We know that our son is very happy when we pick him up every day and he talks about his school and his teachers. The facility is clean, well lit and airy. The teachers are always pleasant and engaged. Ample parking makes it easy to drop and pick up. From bottom of our hearts I want to thank all the staff for the wonderful work they do, I know it ain't easy. So, thank you again.
My 2 1/2 year old daughter started Learn and Play Montessori in Niles in October. Since day 1 she has loved coming to this school. Her primary teacher and the rest of the staff are so nice and friendly. The campus is well organized and very clean! I feel very confident and at ease leaving my daughter there knowing she is in good hands! i would HIGHLY recommend this preschool to everyone! I'm so happy I found this school and plan on leaving her here as long as I can =)
These reviews are so fake. Teachers turnover is a big concern.They treat their staff like garbage. The classrooms are all a mess and kids have no discipline. The director I met in one of their locations (very small one), forgot her name, was awful and rude when she's not talking to the parents.
This summer my four and a half year old son has been learning about reptiles and anatomy of different animals along with the yearlong montessori program. The teachers have incorporated language and math lessons into various activities which have helped my son develop a taste for learning. I have found the staff to be caring, energetic and extremely knowledgeable. The director is compassionate and always willing to answer any questions. As a parent I am greeted warmly each time and I feel very comfortable leaving my son in the hands of this phenomenal staff. I encourage you to visit this preschool. Like us you will be amazed.
Excedllent school, my daughter just completed 2yrs and 3 months in this school. We are very sad to leave this school. My daughter cried on her last day that clearly shows how much she loved this school. Excellent staff and wonderful management., they will let you know immediately whatever happens in the class. Parents can leave their kids here without any worries. Academic wise, my daughter learned a lot and she is doing very well.
Our son has been attending Learn and Play Montessori Preschool in Niles, Fremont since April of this year. The staff at this preschool is effective with the children. Children seem to obey and respect their teachers more so then other preshools we had visited prior to enrolling our son here. The individual attention is excellent and the best part my son likes is the food. He never used to eat lunch at the previous day care/preschool but here he comes home with full stomach, which can be a blessing for a tired parent. We are very happy with this preschool and we highly recommend it.
Very pleased. My daughter has been going to this facility since July 2011 and I am pleased. While the teacher turnover in one room was high; I've been very satisfied with the new teachers that my daughter has had. In comparison to other preschool facilities in the area, it beats them hands down. It is clean, my child receives attention, and she's learning.
Hi my 3.8 years old is going to learn and play montessori school (Maple Street). School is very good, teachers and staff are very very good and co-operative. My son is doing really well, he is learning new things everyday and I highly recommend this school.
This school offers montessori educational programs, which we have always admired. This school is not too expensive and the staff is very professional. The facility is clean and has a big playground. Schools offer plenty of parking, which is a big plus for a busy bee like me who needs to drop off and run to work. I m always late. Lol. Only con is that they do not offer pickup service.
This school (Niles) culture is too bad. I sent my daughter here since the facility is new. But after staying one and half months, we decided to quit. One day when I was there, the kids are doing artwork, the teacher are nice to teach my daughter to do the project. But when other kids walked around and tried to play the toys, she said: "This is not yours, do not touch". I know the classroom needs to be maintained clean and organized, but should not ask kids not play toys. I just think when I was not there, how they treat my daughter. Another day, when I picked up my daughter earlier than usual, I found they straddled my daughter in the chair while other kids play around. And after I told them we will quit, they called me and told me my daughter was sick, I drove home to bring her to the hospital, but the doctor said she is fine!!! My daughter was very active and like to play with other kids. Now when I bring her to the playground, she just stay by herself and when other kids come, she ran away, kinda scary playing with them. So if you want you kid be taught in a nice environment, stay away from this school.
I have both my children enrolled at Learn and Play Montessori at the Niles Campus. By far the nicest preschool we have ever seen. I find the montessori program this school offers to be unique then other regular preschools. Both my kids love going to school. My oldest child is gifted and I feel that this school has polished her in so many ways, which I m very thankful for.
When to the open house and it can't express how happy I and my wife were to see a beautiful preschool. It was like walking into a 5 star hotel. So, far this has been the best preschool we have come across in the Fremont area.
This preschool is one of those schools that I very well setup and is run professionaly, unlike some of the other schools I visited. Comparing this school with others, this is A+. I son started here 8 months ago and loves it. I'm glad we choose to send our kid here.
My child enjoys it at this school. We get a constant feedback from th teachers which we really like. The director is very experienced and staff is awesome. A Parent.
My kids enjoy going to this preschool. It has good curriculam and good atmosphere. The monthly fees is reasonable compared to other schools in the area. Overall very good place to send your love ones. Also, they have lots of parking which was not the case in other schools. I recommend this school. Its little far from me, that's the only draw back. regards, Anil K.

Reaction to death of former Il Comptroller Dawn Clark Netsch
Tuesday, 05 March 2013 10:43 Published in Local NewsThe former Illinois comptroller and the first woman to get the Democratic nomination for Illinois governor died early Tuesday at her Chicago home.
Nephew Andy Kerr says the evening before Netsch was at home watching the TV news and surrounded by newspapers.
Kerr says his aunt was always trying to stay up to date and even in her last months was advising political candidates.
Netsch graduated first in her class from Northwestern Law in 1952, yet Kerr says she could not get a job because she was a woman.
He says that experience drove her to fight all types of discrimination, which became a hallmark of her career.
Here is reaction from across the state:
"The Illinois political scene will not be the same without that pool-shooting Sox Fan with a cigarette holder, but generations of Illinois women can thank the indomitable force of Dawn Clark Netsch for blazing their path." - U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin.
"Most importantly, Dawn was a straight shooter, and not just at playing pool. She always told the people of Illinois what they needed to know." - Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn.
"Dawn leaves behind a long path paved with the shattered glass from the ceilings she broke for women in leadership." - U.S. Rep. Mike Quigley.
"Dawn always remembered that government exists to serve taxpayers, not the other way around. She was a leader who was ahead of her time and our state is better for her service." - Illinois Comptroller Judy Baar Topinka.
"She was straight forward, a straight shooter and great at explaining state issues. She was not just a public servant, but a teacher. She will be missed." - Illinois Lt. Gov. Sheila Simon.
"She blazed a trail for women and worked hard to make sure so many of us could follow her." - Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan.
"Her legacy will live on through her incomparable career of helping others." - Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White.
