Academy of Art University is a great school to go to for Photography. I studied it there and learned a lot! Since all of their instructors are industry experts, I was able to get a lot of valuable information, while preparing for success in life after college. Once I graduated, I landed a great job. Some of my friends who have graduated from there have also gone on to work for big-name companies. You can see a list of companies that hire Academy grads on their website at http://www.academyart.edu/photography-school/index.html.

Dog grooming school in San Francisco Bay Area (East Bay to be more specific)?

Dog grooming school in San Francisco Bay Area (East Bay to be more specific)?
Looking for dog grooming school in the Bay Area? Not looking for online schools, or video courses. I need hands on and practical guide shown by the instructor. Am not looking for pet grooming, but to learn to be a stylist. I know there is the Madeline's Institute of Pet Grooming at Santa Clara, but they do not offer/conduct classes till next Fall '07. And there are other schools but in South California, around the LA area. would love to learn from a grooming school of the basics first and then advance all the way up step by step... but will start with the basics of professional pet groomer first then go to the next step of advanced learning. But currently looking for a grooming school with basic instruction first, not looking for a grooming school that offer advanced courses yet.

You need to learn all breed dog & cat grooming first as there are specific procedures and cuts for each breed. After you sucessfully learn/practice all breed grooming you can get creative or "stylist" whatever that means.

Places to live in California that are close to San Francisco?

Places to live in California that are close to San Francisco?
I'm moving with my 15 year old daughter to California. I need a city to work in, but I would like to live in a place that is clean, nice, and safe with good public and private high schools for my daughter. So the cities or town would have to be close to San Francisco, any recommendations?
San Francisco - 8 Answers
Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
1 :
Sunnyvale, Santa Clara, Palo Alto, Novato, some parts of Vallejo.. Just avoid Richmond and Oakland.
2 :
Maybe you would want to take BART to work. The closest stops (excepting Oakland) would be Daly City and Berkeley. If you don't mind a longer ride, you have options such as Millbrae, Hayward, Fremont, Pleasanton, and Walnut Creek.
3 :
I suggest Marin county for the best public and private schools in the Bay Area. There are many towns in Marin county and some are only 20 minutes from San Francisco. It has the most to offer, clean air, maintained outdoor environment, green technology, farmers markets and organic markets, cafes, restaurants, tourist destinations, several religious and private schools, very safe living compared to every other county in the bay area. You can commute by ferry, bus, or car to San Francisco to work. San Francisco itself has good international, religious and private schools. Marin county has a well-educated, mostly liberal, high-income demigraphic.
4 :
I live in Santa Rosa and it's an hour away and it's kinda family friendly here, I've lived here all 16 years of my life. pretty safe for the most part, and education isn't bad either. besides that, Petaluma, and Napa, San Mateo, etc
5 :
San Mateo is good. Never too hot or cold and it has a bridge to east bay. The closer to SF you get the colder it gets, the further south or closer you get to San Jose the hotter is gets in the summer. The Cal-Train runs from SF to San Jose. And in East bay there's Bart. Oakland and Richmond is off limits, Berkeley is expensive. Stick to San Mateo.
6 :
Live IN San Francisco. You may never have a better opportunity than now. Because of the down real estate market, rents are cheaper in SF than they have been in years. A studio in the Marina district may cost you $1,200 per month, almost half of what it was 5 years ago. And once you are in, you are protected from high rent increases (rent control in SF).
7 :
Gotta go with Palo Alto area, I grew up there went to a great private high school, and it was a great place to grow up. Not too far from the city either.
8 :
If you are going to lease an apartment, you should move to this place. It is called Parkmerced. This apartment is very near the two best high schools in San Francisco. One is private school called Mercy High School. It is a girl only school. Another one is Lowell high school. I live at this area for 6 years and it is very safe and quiet. It is also near everything you need. There is a shopping mall, supermarket and a lot parks. Good luck!

If I fly an airplane from Toledo,Ohio to San Francisco, California will it still be light out when I arrive?

If I fly an airplane from Toledo,Ohio to San Francisco, California will it still be light out when I arrive?
If the time in Toledo,OH is 10:00pm (EDT) and the time in California is 7:00pm (PDT) will I arrive in California in the daylight? What I mean is that at 10:00pm (EDT) the sun is set in Toledo and it is completely dark out, but is the sun still out in San Francisco? Does the sun cross California after it crosses Ohio? I was just wondering because I did not pay much attention to this in school (6th grade).

No it will be dark by the time you arrive in California.
2 :
yes for now it will be until the time changes again
3 :
The time of year matters. As winter approaches the sun will set earlier. If you are flying to San Francisco next week and arrive 7:00 PM PDT, it will still be daylight as the plane lands (but not for very much longer). As seen at: http://www.wunderground.com/history/airport/KSFO/2008/9/5/DailyHistory.html?req_city=NA&req_state=NA&req_statename=NA on Sep 5, 2008 sunset was 7:31 PM PDT.
4 :
It will be light as long as you leave early in the day from Ohio... Check the flight schedules..that will tell you. The sun sets from East to West so it sets in Ohio before California.
5 :
No it will be dark because you have about a 5 hour flight time at a minimum minus the three hour time difference. So that will put you in california at around midnight if your lucky. i learned this in 6th grade u will probably learn soon also make sure you pay attention in class its important
6 :
No, your entire flight will be after the sun sets and will be dark in every time zone you travel through. It will be around midnight when you arrive in California, many hours after the sun set there.
7 :
Yeah, there will still be sunlight in San Francisco at 7pm (if you fly within the next couple of days...hard to say if the flight is a end of sept flight) The sun crosses Ohio before California. That is why Ohio is dark at that time, while CA still has sun. Right now, the sun doesnt set until 8ish PDT.
8 :
Sunset in San Francisco tomorrow occurs at 7:41pm PDT. For the month of September, the sunset is at 7:38pm on the 1st, and is at 6:54pm on the 30th. Plus or minus a few minutes depending on exactly where you are. Check out the links below:

You could go out to some clubs and dance the night away and meet people there. You could get involved with some extra activities at your college and meet new people that way You could visit art museums and talk to people that are around and see what they think about the art pieces you're looking at You could try and find new people on craig's list (online can be dangerous though) You could try and find people on facebook or myspace that live in your area and meet up with them. Blessings
4 :
You are right. The boys in SF already have boyfriends. You are out of luck. Try across the bay in Berkley or maybe Alameda.
5 :
Well, do you want straight or gay? That helps point you somewhere
6 :
Put on some fish nets and stand on the street corner. Who ever tells you that there looking for some company is straight and a good canidate for a boyfriend.
7 :
Go out to a club and meet some guys. You can meet guys online on facebook or myspace. Or you can meet guys here. Im single =) xD hahah
8 :
Phil gave you some great suggestions. Most of the other homocentric answers can be safely ignored. Those folks don't know what they are talking about. You'll find lots of straight guys all over SF. Just like any other large city there are theaters, bars, concerts, clubs, art galleries, museums, malls and bookstores. Don't just look for a boyfriend, make friends! Your biggest single best option is people you know introducing you to their friends. The arts community in SF is very vibrant and you'll have little problem finding like minded people.

The problem with culinary schools is that you will amass a debt of $55K to 65K for a line cook position that pays, if you are lucky, $12/hr. Look at the Culinary Arts and Hospitality Studies program at City College of San Francisco. I guarantee it will be much cheaper and leave you with much less debt than the for-profit schools you mentioned, and the education ought to be equal or better than the for-profits schools.

To go to medical school, you have to get your BS first. You can get your BS at the University of North Florida, and then apply to other schools. Also, you don't transfer to a medical school.

As the previous responder said, you can do your premed undergrad work (and possibly even some postgrad) at UNF.

One thing is for sure, it's going to be a lot warmer in SF. The city is has a very diverse population, which is a good thing.

Also living in the city is extremely expensive. Good luck

I feel hopeless, why can't I go to the college I want?

I feel hopeless, why can't I go to the college I want?
Well I live in Georgia. In the southeastern part to be exact. I'm under whats known as the hope scholarship. This means that a certain amount of money will be used to pay for books and dorms. It is hard though because they have raised the grade point average of receiving it. I'm not dumb it's just that I've had a hard time keeping on track to have achieve it. I want to go to a college in Jacksonville, Florida really bad. It would even make more sense because I live very close to Jacksonville but I'm on the border of the Georgia Line. I have the grades for it too. It's just the stupid HOPE. It doesn't apply to Florida schools, or any other schools out of my state because the prices are EXTREME! My dream ist to go to school in an environment with a bigger city and things to do (Jacksonville). Instead I'm stuck going to a rural Upper Georgia school in the middle of nowhere. I visited the campus yesterday and It really depressed me. What should I do?

If you can't get into JacksonvilleU [ at least I think that's the college your talking about] you should think about UCF, that's Central Florida University its in Orlando and its a really great school with lots of stuff to do down there, Hope you get to go to the college you want but if not look up UCF.

- - Hey, If they are giving you money DON'T be difficult. Take what is offered. Get over it. That is the way life works. Maybe later, you can transfer to Jacksonville after you have saved some money from your new part-time job. Yea, I always worked when I was attending college. Variety is really the spice of life. Take any part-time job your college placement office offers. Good luck . . .

3
Don't give up yet. Call the HOPE Foundation and express to them your desire. I'm sure that something can be worked out. You could always apply for Financial Aid and Scholarships so you can attend the college of your choice. Have you considered online school? Try to remember you have a chance to go to school when many others don't. God meets you at the level of your needs, not your wants. Be grateful. You can continue on for a Bachelors Degree and Masters at different schools once you get through the first 2 years. Take this oppertunity while you can. It is the way up and out of your little town and on to bigger and better things :)

look on the bright side...

At times there are certain things that is beyond your control. And if you do not compromise with it the problem becomes more intense. So try to find some good quality about the place and try to adjust, sometimes its good to think ....... "grapes are sour". It makes you feel better and happier.

What's wrong of graduating on a rural school?Once you earn your degree and have a job then maybe that's the time to switch course and follow your dream.Does it make any sense to you?????
