If this were an ideal world, every young child would have an education perfectly tailored to his or her own unique educational style, interests, background, and needs.
But this is not an ideal world, and such an education would be so expensive as to bankrupt anyone who tried it, any government that came anywhere near it.
Most preschoolers are fine anyway, as long as their teachers are good, their schools adequately funded, and their families careful and loving.
But some kids just need more. They have special needs — a range of special needs, from physical disabilities to behavioral issues to emotional or cognitive problems — that demand special, individualized education.
That's where schools like Springboard come in.
The Springboard School — until the end of the last academic year it was the Therapeutic Nursery at the Kaplen JCC on the Palisades in Tenafly, but now, with its new name, it's found a new home at the headquarters of Lubavitch on the Palisades, also in Tenafly — is for young children who have been diagnosed with a range of developmental issues. And it's also for their parents.
Springboard's program is half-day. Its students — all but one kindergarteners, and he's a first grader — are encouraged to spend the other half of the day in a more conventional school. As it happens — and to everyone's benefit, the school's longtime director, Lois Mendelson, said — all but one of them are enrolled at the Lubavitch on the Palisade's own preschool. That school's directors and teachers work seamlessly with Springboard's staff to ensure that each child is seen, taught, directed, and loved in the best way possible for that child.
So what exactly is Springboard? Who is it for?
"The children we work with are the ones who fall between the cracks in the system," Dr. Mendelson said. "They are really smart. They have to be of at least average intelligence to get in, but the children here now are very smart." But they generally don't have the social skills most children their age have, and they don't have either the intuition or the self-control that would allow them to fit in — not in the sense of only coloring inside the lines, but in the way that would permit them to have friends and satisfying social lives. Without some help, they might not grow up to be fully functional, happy adults; with help, their chances for such a future are bright.
But it takes a lot of work. Individualized work.
Springboard has classes for children beginning when they're 2 years old. "They all have problems with communication," Dr. Mendelson said; they also have a hard time with "socialization and emotional and behavioral regulation, which prevents them from succeeding in mainstream environments," according to the school's website. Many people automatically assume that they're all on the autism spectrum; that's not true, she said. Many are, but some are not.
Still, the school "always starts with 'how do you stop being out of control?'"
Teaching self-control — how not to melt down, how to stop a meltdown, how to recognize emotions, tame rage, find another way to deal with strong feelings — is at the heart of the program. It is that ability to control behavior that is at the heart of what the Springboard School does.
The social skills program it teaches is modeled on the educator Michelle Dunn's "S.O.S: Social Skills in our Schools." It's a "developmental, language-based parent-child program" — it teaches the children to put words to what they feel, and to be able to talk about it with their parents. Those words, though, come through visual media. "We use visuals for everything," Dr. Mendelson said; simple stick-figure images of people feeling anger, for example, help a child identify it. "Pictures are right brain," she said, whereas words are left brain.
The parents come for counseling once a week, and they're always involved with their children's work at school.
"If you have a lesson on greetings, the parents will say that their children know how to say hi — but they don't do it. So we teach it with mirrors.
It's not that they don't know the words, they just don't know when they're meant to be said. "These kids are very verbal," Dr. Mendelson said. "They have pragmatic issues. You have to teach them how to engage socially and appropriately."
This is information that the children want. "It isn't true that if you are on the spectrum, you don't want friends," she said. "They just don't know how to make them." They teach the children, for example, not to hug everyone. "Kids when they are 5 don't want everyone to hug them." That's not the way to make friends.
"We teach them both emotional regulation and social rules," she continued; that is, how to control what they're feeling so they're not overwhelmed by those feelings, and how to act on them. "We teach them when to raise your hand. We teach them how to compromise. And we have a mantra for everything. 'If you compromise, fun is the prize.' And 'You can win or you can lose, but you will always have fun.'
"And the kids gobble them up. They love the rules, and they want to enforce them."
Often teaching is done through play. "How do you play going to the doctor? Going shopping? Going to a restaurant. We show them how to do it.
"Often, parents say that they are never able to take their kids to a restaurant. We show them how." That is, Springboard teaches children what to expect in a restaurant, and how to act there — and it teaches parents pretty much the same thing.
Last month, the school's children went on a trip to a pumpkin farm. It took a lot of preparation. "We pretended to go first. These kids are not good at pretending. They tend to be weak at that. But we pretended, and then they went. We did visuals for everyone, and we took pictures, before we went. That's because these kids tend to be anxious about anything new. So we sang and held hands. We went through the whole thing.
"And the rules say that if you cannot remember what to do, your mommy will take you home." That would be easy, because the children's parents accompanied the trip.
The school can help prepare the children for longer trips too. "They don't like surprises, so they have to know what to expect. If they're going to visit a grandfather in California, we draw a plane, and a stick figure of a grandfather." Parents are asked to do that too, and "no, they don't have to be good artists," Dr. Mendelson said.
Although the children are verbal, "in some kids their anxiety is so strong that it keeps them from functioning. They can panic at the thought of something they have to do. They can become selectively mute. Sometimes it's for genetic reasons, sometimes processing is the problem." Sometimes it's an issue that their parents, too, faced when they were younger, and sometimes the parents struggle with those issues today. It just looks different in adults.
Among the most important lessons Springboard teaches is "that it's okay to be mad, as long as you can use your words." Talk, don't act.
They also teach both the children and the parents that learning to control their behavior does not demand anger or retribution or fear. It's not that "you did something bad, and so I must punish you." Instead, it is "you did something that isn't good, and I must help you.
"It's about knowing and acknowledging your feelings." For parents, it's about "validating and empathizing, and also being firm."
Another part of the program focuses on verbal communication. It's language-based; that means that speech and language therapists work with the special education teachers all the time. Teachers use graphic organizers, carrying through the school's understanding of the importance of visual cues — and of the left brain in general — for learning how to be in the world.
And, Dr. Mendelson stressed, "the parent component is major."
The school was opened in 1978, "when people still believed that parents caused autism," Dr. Mendelson said. "Instead of helping parents, people blamed them." Therapists would have parents hold their children, and then they, the therapists, would hold both of them; this patronizing of parents and their children for problems caused by brain chemistry was better than blaming them, but it wasn't particularly effective. "The S.O.S. program was a big jump," she said.
The school originally was at Einstein, the teaching hospital in the Bronx. "I worked with Doris Allen, the founding director," Dr. Mendelson said. "She was a psycholinguist who taught me everything. She was amazing." Dr. Mendelson hadn't been planning a career working with children on the spectrum, but she saw a short story in her alma mater's alumni magazine inviting Barnard grads trying to find themselves to work with older alumni who were farther along that daunting, never-ending road. She went to Einstein, and "I didn't know a thing about working with toddlers, and I didn't know a thing about autism." But that changed. "I never looked for another job," she said. "The die was cast."
Eventually, the school — which kept incorporating new research findings and methods as it constantly refined its theory and practice — outgrew Einstein. It found its new home at the JCC in 1995; Dr. Mendelson became its director in 2002.
And this year, it moved to Chabad.
The school is small. It now has seven students; it could go up to nine, Dr. Mendelson said, and she is hoping to open a morning program, which could double the number of spaces it could offer. It's extremely labor-intensive; therapists work with students individually as well as in small groups. And it is aimed at a highly specific group of students. Their target demographic is students who are too cognitively advanced to benefit from the special education programs that public schools are mandated to provide, and that many of those schools do very well. But those students are too behaviorally challenged to be able to be mainstreamed, although the goal — which the school generally meets and often exceeds — is to prepare them for mainstreaming in elementary school.
Springboard School is open to all children who meet the criteria. They do not have to be Jewish; non-Jewish children were welcomed at the JCC's Therapeutic Nursery, and Lubavitch on the Palisades' director, Rabbi Mordechai Shain, has made it clear that they are welcome at Springboard as well, Dr. Mendelson said.
Parents are encouraged to send their children to another preschool program in the morning. Only the Jewish children can go to Chabad's school, but this year all the children are Jewish, so all of them can and all but one do go there. (The other one continued at Moriah, where he already had been enrolled.)
"Chabad is so good for us in so many ways," Dr. Mendelson said. Often, the children in her school need shadows — adults who accompany a child, one on one, and can help control meltdowns or other behavioral issues — but at Chabad it is not necessary.
"The teachers at the Chabad school are interested in our work," she said. After all, her students are their students too. "We do workshops with them." They share the written S.O.S. materials. "The school's principals" — there are two, one for preschool and one for pre-K and kindergarten — "are so invested in it." She remembers "sitting in the principal's office, and I reported an observation to her, and she picked up the phone and talked to the teacher right away."
Those outside classes "can give the kids an important jump start," Dr. Mendelson said.
Orite Rubenstein is the director of Chabad's preschool, and Sonya Solomon is its assistant director.
The two schools, Springboard and the Lubavitch preschool, share a very comfortable relationship, the two women said. Their schools get as well as give. "They offer support in how to improve the class dynamic so that the class as a whole works better," Ms. Rubenstein said. "They have taught us how to incorporate a lot of the therapeutic models that we also can use."
"All children thrive on structure," Ms. Solomon said. "And also on clear expectations, preparation, warmth, and love. Our classes always have a lot of visuals. We teach through all the senses, establishing relationships and appropriate social interaction between children, and incorporating pragmatic language." It works for everyone, the Springboard students and the more neurotypical kids.
"We are confident in the curriculum and methodology of the Springboard School," Ms. Rubenstein said. "We welcome them with open arms. We are very happy to have them. The teachers feel extremely blessed to have them. They are educating us in the most progressive ways of treating the whole child."

Getting Parched with a Dry Mouth
If you constantly feel like the inside of your dry mouth is like being on a hot, sizzling desert – it may be easy to dismiss this dry mouth condition as a normal occurrence. After all, you can always drink something to quench your thirst and moisten your dry mouth, right? However, a dry mouth and the resulting decrease in the production and presence of saliva may increase your risks of developing more serious dental problems in the future.
Also called Xerostomia, dry mouth can be extremely uncomfortable for the person experiencing it. A dry mouth can also increase the risks of bacteria in the mouth, since saliva washes away food bits and other particles that may cause germs and bacteria to multiply. It is important to know what causes dry mouth conditions, since this leads to proper treatment of the dry mouth before it has a chance to turn into something more serious.
What Causes Dry Mouth?
There are a number of factors that cause dry mouth; it is best to know which dry mouth cause applies to you, so you will know how to go about with the treatment of this condition.
Medication Side Effects - If a specific medication causes dry mouth on a patient, his or her physician may make adjustments on the medication to ease the dry mouth symptoms. In cases when the medication cannot be changed, dosage adjustments can be made accordingly instead.
Medical Treatment Side Effects – Dry mouth and a decrease in the production of saliva can also result from specific medical treatments. Radiation and chemotherapy may cause the salivary glands to produce a significantly decreased amount of saliva, resulting to a dry mouth.
Medical Condition Side Effects – A person can have dry mouth and decreased saliva production when suffering from specific medical conditions. A few of the illnesses that are known to cause dry mouth include anemia, diabetes, hypertension, cystic fibrosis, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, mumps and rheumatoid arthritis.
Nerve Damage – Dry mouth can be experienced by patients who have suffered from some nerve damage resulting from surgery or injury to the head, or to the neck area.
How to Deal with a Dry Mouth
A severe dry mouth cause should be addressed accordingly by your doctor or dentist. Mild dry mouth symptoms can be alleviated by doing the following:
- Keep yourself properly hydrated by drinking a lot of water.
- Chew on sugar-free gum, or suck on sugar-free candies.
- Breathe through your nose, and not through your mouth, to avoid having a dry mouth.
- Use a room humidifier or vaporizer to add moisture to the air you breathe.

Dedicated to helping patients regain their health by combating obesity, the New Hampshire Weight Loss Center offers comprehensive weight loss surgery at Portsmouth Regional Hospital -- a Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence -- and now offers pre and post-operative care and support services in Derry. The Center's multidisciplinary team includes a team of surgeons, psychologists, nurses, nutritionists, physical therapists and others to help patients prepare for the procedure and support them in their new, changed lifestyle.
However, if you are one of the increasing numbers of people who don't cook at all, this makes it much harder to be successful on the plan. You need to be prepared to dedicate some time to buying groceries, food preparation and some basic cookery. Yes you can use ready cooked salmon and lentils or bags of ready prepared veg but I would worry about your ability to stick with the plan over the longer term in this case.
Why do we wrestle with what we eat and how much we eat? Sometimes we eat the right foods in the right portions, and sometimes we eat the entire dinner table and all the wrong foods. Why is it so hard to eat healthfully? Whether you're trying to lose a few pounds or maintain a nutritious diet, you'll find many of your eating habits are due to emotional eating. So weight loss or weight gain become more an issue not of what you eat, but how you feel when you're doing it.
Jinan (BSc, MSc) is a Registered Nutritionist (AfN) and a member of the Association for Obesity. She incorporates her knowledge to enable clients to achieve the best possible results, using years of food-industry experience to listen to her clients and work with them to devise a meal plan that works for them. Jinan is a firm believer of a specialised tailored approach to every individual. After all, each lock needs a different key!
Our free monthly support groups provide opportunities before and after surgery to learn and ask questions of our dietitian, psychologist and bariatric nurse, as well as patients who share their personal stories about the challenges and successes of weight loss surgery. Support groups are open to anyone who has had or is planning to have weight loss surgery.
The Medi-Weightloss® Program is not a diet; it's a lifestyle change. Get off the dieting roller coaster and rejuvenate your life, learning to live healthy and lean for a lifetime through a three-phase, physician-supervised weight loss program that works. In each location, patients receive a VIP experience from caring, experienced healthcare professionals and an abundance of hands-on support, education, and accountability. Our trained professionals help make your weight loss journey stress free and uncomplicated. It's true. Come see for yourself.
A: The clinically-proven UltraShape procedure is the most widely used non-invasive solution for fat reduction and body contouring. It uses focused ultrasound to target and reduce unwanted localized fat deposits, reduce body circumference and improve body shape. The UltraShape procedure is intended to help average to modestly overweight men and women reduce localized fat deposits around the abdomen, flanks (love handles), hips and thighs. It offers a totally non-invasive, painless no downtime alternative to patients seeking reduced circumference (a slimmer body) and an improved body contour. UltraShape involves no incisions, needles, injections, recovery time or maintenance treatments whatsoever. UltraShape is an ideal non-surgical procedure that enables men and women to improve their figure, go down in clothing size, and improve the shape in problem fatty areas that regular diet and exercise usually don't get rid of.
There are many variables and factors in the complex world of health insurance. Most providers have so many different plans that we cannot give general advice to our patients. We will provide you with a "super bill" for your insurance company. This is signed by our physician with proper coding and any other requirements. You can then submit the bill to your Insurance Carrier for reimbursement. Although we do not see any monies ourselves, we do know that over 50% of our patients do get reimbursed for medical fees.
As you move through the program, you return to the facility to attend weekly one-on-one support meetings. At these meetings, your health is monitored and supplements, prescriptions, or injections are administered. This is also a time when you can ask questions and make any necessary modifications to your plan. You may meet with a nurse, medical professional, registered dietitian, or fitness trainer.
The biggest mistake the fitness industry makes when it comes to female fat loss is prescribing too much cardiovascular exercise which can actually reduce fat burning capacity! At Embody we take a different, and much more scientific, approach to female fat loss by structuring programmes so that metabolism is increased in the days following each session and, long term, metabolism is greater even at rest!
Jenny Craig is a clinically proven and recommended weight loss program designed to provide structure and support to help members lose weight and learn how to keep it off. The program takes a holistic approach to weight loss and maintenance, focusing on food, body and mind. Jenny Craig's award-winning, nutritionally-balanced menus include more than 100 menu items, including entrees, desserts and snacks developed by Registered Dietitians, nutritionists and culinary experts. Every member is paired with a dedicated consultant who provides them with one-on-one support to identify their challenges and goals, and helps them to create unique weekly meal and activity plans. Consultants provide education on behavioral skills, portion control and how to have a long-term successful relationship with food. Most importantly, your consultant will be a part of your success, cheering you on as you reach each weight loss milestone.
For anyone that contacts me who is interested in the plan I always suggest arranging a phone call to discuss it in further detail. It is important for you to find out a bit more about it from me and it is also important for me to find out a bit more about you. This helps me judge whether it is right for you and your lifestyle. I just don't see the point in persuading someone to do it if it isn't a good fit. I also suggest that we meet face to face to show you a copy of the plan so that you are 100% clear on how it works before you commit.
If you are unhappy with our response or if you need any advice you should contact the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). Their telephone number is 0303 123 1113, you can also chat online with an advisor. The ICO can investigate your claim and take action against anyone who's misused personal data. You can also visit their website for information on how to make a data protection complaint.
My name is Monica, I am a qualified and registered nutritionist. I am Italian and lived and worked in many European countries until 2009 when I finally settled in England. I graduated from the Institute of Optimum Nutrition after four years of studying and clinical training. I have also trained under Patrick's Holford's Zest4life team qualifying as a weight loss and wellbeing coach. In 2014 I was awarded the Dian Shepperson Mills Prize for "Outstanding Performance in Clinic".
"When I started the programme I had spent years trying different types of diet and exercise regimes but deep down I knew I would not be able to succeed long term if I didn't change the way I think about food. Now, I finally feel back in the driving seat when it comes to my attitude towards food. I no longer feel like a prisoner in that respect and feel totally in control which is an achievement I am absolutely delighted with! I have not binged on food for a long time and I now feel I am much more the real me. I am a lot happier and more confident almost all of the time. This is the way I used to feel when I was going through a good patch but there are no patches anymore. For the first time I really feel like I have a fit, healthy future ahead of me!"

If you're milling about the TEFAF New York art fair on a weekday afternoon and don't have at least a few million to your name, chances are you're a journalist, a curator, or the guy shucking oysters—either way, you're in the minority. While the city's big contemporary art fairs have mass appeal and draw seas of onlookers that drown out the actual buyers, antiquities fairs like TEFAF are a whole other scene, one that caters strictly to an older, very Upper East Side crowd. Everyone looks like they're here to shop, and even if you don't catch them cutting a check, you get the feeling they most definitely could be.
But I didn't come to ogle the aristocrats—I came to ogle their beautiful, expensive toys. There are some truly amazing things on view, and a fair like this gives us a chance to see objects up close, before they disappear forever in a private collection, or get tucked away behind glass in a museum. There are Dutch vanitas still life paintings, Tiffany lamps, pages from medieval Books of Hours, and Impressionist canvases. There is Art Nouveau furniture and gorgeous vintage jewelry.
And then there are things that you can't forget because they are both incredible and exceedingly strange. Here's a shortlist, for your viewing pleasure:
Vanitas works are a reminder of the certainty of death. You can say it with the ephemeral beauty of flowers, or, more to the point, you can say it with a huge marble bust of a corpse in 18th-century wig and armor.
If you don't have space for the bust, you can always go with this oil on wood painting that's half-skeleton, half-woman, and wholly creepy.
Flemish painter Jan Van Kessel is known for his still lifes, making this surrealist natural history study—in which he contorted snakes, spiders, and caterpillars to spell out his name—totally out of character. "It's one of a kind," comments the exhibitor.
Remember this painting from the Met Breuer's Unfinished show? Anderson Cooper is taking it home. He made headlines after dropping $275,000 on the canvas on opening day.
In religious imagery, Onuphrius, a hermit who lived in the Egyptian desert in the 4th or 5th century, is depicted as a wild man covered in hair. This rendition from 15th-century Catalonia is particularly literal.
The three sides of this candlestick design by Henry Dee depict the stages of sleep: the closing of the eyes, the contented smile, and finally, the deep slumber, with mouth gaping. "Dee is well-known in our little world of silver for his wacky designs," the exhibitor tells me while demonstrating how the nightcap is used as a snuffer.
According to exhibitor Elle Shushan, miniature wax portraits like these can date back to the Renaissance, and continued to be made until the early 20th century.
Today, bits for horses (metal tacks placed in the animal's mouth) are simply said to help riders communicate with them, but in 15th-century Catalonia, specific bit shapes were believed to cure all kinds of horse ailments, from the physical to the temperamental. Yet this was more theory than practice, according to the exhibitor, who tells me that actual antique bits don't reflect the variety shown in this book of 80 prescriptive designs.
This wooden trunk, which folds out into scenes from the Passion of the Christ, was carried around by Jesuit priests from village to village to evangelize the indigenous populations of Ecuador. Since most of these elaborate dioramas were destroyed once the priests' mission was accomplished, only three survive—one is in a museum in Peru, the other in Bolivia, and this one will likely land somewhere in New York. Three of the city's museums are competing for it, according to the exhibitor.
We'll end this tour where we started: with morbid anatomy. This is a first edition, life-size collection of 18th-century anatomical drawings by Jacques Fabien Gautier d'Agoty, which brings together his studies of muscles, the head, and general anatomy. The most famous of these is the above study of a woman, which was printed on three separate pages that were meant to be cut out and pasted together. Save for her face, crotch, and right arm and breast, her entire body is dissected. The volume is priced at $120,000, and a potential buyer, leafing through it next to me, seems to be mulling it over. "It's expensive, but I think I'm going to have to do it," he tells me.
TEFAF New York Fall is on view at the Park Avenue Armory through October 26. Its modern and contemporary counterpart, TEFAF New York Spring, is slated for early May 2017.

Earlier this week, Google announced the Nexus 9 (alongside the new Nexus 6 and the new Nexus Player) to little fanfare through a simple, to the point press release. The Nexus website was updated to show off their latest tablet, which is the product of collaboration between HTC and Google, and everything that the Nexus 9 was supposed to be according to the leaks and rumors, came true on Wednesday. Today, you can pre-order the Nexus 9 on both Amazon and Google Play, with prices starting at $399 for the 16GB WiFi model. Compared to last year's Nexus 7 which launched for $229 for the same configuration, is this year's model too expensive?
I'm personally still on the fence when it comes to purchasing a new Nexus 9 or not, and it's not because I don't think it's neccessarily worth the increase in price, but more because I don't really want to spend that sort of money on a tablet I might not use all that much. I'm a UK resident so that means that $399 has become £319 and when you convert £319 back to the US Dollar you get a price of roughly $510. Now, I know that things aren't as simple as converting the currencies back and forth, but let's just say the Nexus 9 is pricey here in the UK, okay? I'm a guy that already has too many gadgets, with a smartwatch, two tablets as it is (a G Pad 8.3 and a TouchPad), a Kindle which I love, a Chromebook and lots of other stuff. Do I really need one more piece of tech? Contrary to common belief, us technology writers aren't obsessed with owning everything.
The extra that this year's Nexus tablet costs is obviously down to the vastly improved processor under the hood, a 64-bit Tegra K1 against a Snapdragon S4 Pro is like comparing a crop duster to a fighter jet. Besides, I'm willing to bet that the HTC-built Nexus 9 (mostly thanks to the aluminum frame) will be better built than the 2013 Nexus 7. So sure, I can see where that extra money is going and I guess we need to remember that Google is marketing the Nexus 9 as a tablet that can do pretty much everything rather than the Nexus 7 which was basically good for consuming content and browsing the web. To answer the question I asked with today's title I'm going to say that no, I don't think the Nexus 9 is too expensive. I do however, feel that Android Lollipop needs to go a long way to convincing people Android on tablets is worth paying more for, and investing more time in.
I've been disappointed with how Google has approached Android on tablets since the Android 4.2 update we saw launch with the Nexus 10; it basically reduced tablets to giant phones, again. Call me crazy, but the UI that was introduced in Android 3.0 Honeycomb felt like it belonged more on a large display than the stretched three-button phone UI designed for devices we put in our pockets. I'm not saying the experience on Android tablets is horrible, but there's a reason why larger phones (just like the Nexus 6, would you look at that) are becoming more and more popular. A smartphone can pull double-duty compared to a tablet and the experience is pretty much the same. Of course there's value in having a very similar experience across device sizes, but all you need to do is take a look at what the iPad and the Surface Pro 3 can offer and it's clear that Google has some catching up to do.
I'm excited for Android Lollipop and I really do hope that there are some changes that we haven't seen yet that will make the overall experience on a larger display both more advantageous than just using a larger phone and more productive for those looking to do more than watch videos and play games. Is the Nexus 9 too expensive? No, a price like this will mean it can be compared to Apple's latest iPads without 'ifs', 'buts' and 'yes, but you see it's a lot cheaper'. It's not too expensive when you weight up the hardware, the build quality and the features compared to previous iterations, but Android 5.0 needs to convince me that it's worth such a price tag.
