Proximity to Tongariro Alphine crossing. Low price for accommodation.
Shared bathroom.
Old world elegance. Large, comfortable room with lovely views. Sitting in the great room listening to the pianist was also a highlight.
Our visit was too short!
Rooms were much more presentable than what appears in the photos on the website. The rooms were comfortable, and the common areas were lovely and had great views. The access to coin washers / dryers is also very handy for long-term travellers. Staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful.
The charge for Internet was very high. I think high-end hotels should consider Internet essential - and, if it's not available for free in the room, should at least provide access to a business centre at no charge.
room from picture looks nice. good location to all the hiking trails. inside restaurant is convenient. kitchen is ok for simple cooking
room small and old kitchen is small, table/chairs need to be replaced
Here's why:
We're not the seller.
At KAYAK we don't set the prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We compile tonnes of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we can't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find, on occasion, that certain prices are no longer available.
If you have more questions or if you have a bad price to report to us,
please send us an
and someone from our team will get back to you promptly.

Simplicity isn't everyone's friend. I find this true with engineers and scientists who argue that public relations schlocks like to distill their ideas to a point where they're no longer recognizable. That's not good. If we dumb down everything too much, we're left with nothing but superficial banter stripped of meaning. Simplicity can be a double-edged sword.
Effective communications help audiences see complicated topics more clearly. They reveal realities that have been obscured by veils of complexity. Use your presentation, graphic, or text to unravel the mystery. Help your audience see patterns they couldn't visualize on their own. Flag important points covered up by jargon or specialized language. Bring to the surface essential facts that may be lost in a block of extraneous detail.
Integrity matters. You never want to simplify anything to the point where you alter the meaning of your message. This is especially true in cases where audiences need specific information and key facts can't be eliminated. For example, if you were explaining new audit methodologies to a group of auditors, it would be disastrous if you glossed over details that are pertinent to their jobs. Following generally accepted auditing standards (GAAS) isn't a suggestion—it's an imperative for anyone working in that field. Trainers who work with auditors to comprehend new standards and requirements must be focused on making content more comprehensible without omitting crucial steps.
Simplicity vs. clarity
Simplicity and clarity are similar in many ways, but different in other ways. The take-away here is that your job is to make content more accessible. Once again, it's essential to "know thy audience." Is your audience like the Indian farmers? They'll be able to get along without understanding the technology behind cellular communication. Or is your audience more like the auditors? They need to know about new standards in requirements or jobs.
When to simplify and when to clarify are judgment calls you the communicator need to make. The more you understand your audience and the better you understand your topic, the more likely you'll be able to know when to simplify and when to clarify.

Volleyball Report: Breaking down PSU at Nebraska
The final week of the Big Ten season is upon us, and Penn State has once again claimed at least a share of the Big Ten title. The rest of the conference's teams, they have secured their plans for the postseason, with the exception of Northwestern. The Wildcats have earned a trip the tournament, in my opinion, but finishing on a four-match losing streak would make the team a less attractive pick for the selection committee, especially with eight Big Ten teams already in. Northwestern needs to take one of these last two against Illinois and Wisconsin to solidify its

Robert Bresson directed this bleak tale of a fourteen-year-old girl growing up under horrific circumstances, which has been given a splendid presentation on DVD from the Criterion Collection. Mouchette has been transferred to disc in widescreen format; the image has been letterboxed at the film's original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.66:1 on conventional monitors, and has been enhanced for anamorphic play on 16x9 monitors. Ghislain Cloquet's cinematography is beautifully rendered here, with the disc featuring rich details and a gorgeous palate of gray tones. The audio has been mastered in Dolby Digital Mono, and the nuances of the sound mix are very impressive indeed in this edition. The dialogue is in English, with optional subtitles in English. Bonus materials include Au Hasard Bresson, a documentary on the making of the film which was shot while Mouchette was in production; a segment from a French television news magazine which profiled Bresson during the making of Mouchette and features interviews with the director as well as actors Nadine Nortier and Jean-Claude Guilbert; a trailer for the picture edited by Jean-Luc Godard; and a commentary track from author and film historian Tony Rayns. The booklet also includes an insightful essay on Mouchette by Robert Polito. Criterion has earned a well-deserved reputation as the label that sets the standard for DVD quality, and Mouchette is another example of a superb film given kid gloves treatment by their staff; anyone interested in the work of one of the giants of French cinema will want this disc in their collection.

Recommends it for: Java Programmers, XML people, Geeks
Shelves: non-fiction
As a temporary developer for Stanford I am finding about the joys and perils on online research. Though most of my time is spent at a computer researching solutions for problems as I find them, I have (against the advice of the 2 programmers I spent most of my time with) started to read through this book. It is weighty, but the mere act reading a book fills me with a more solid surety in my ability than information gleaned from anonymous forums and user sites. It also works as a nice anti-RSI la ...more
Dec 26, 2009 Wes Freeman rated it really liked it
This book is aimed at an intermediate/advanced level programmer who wants to get into java XML libraries. It's a practical guide by example. I found it useful, especially the chapter on JDOM, and the quick introduction chapter to web applications using XML--I would have liked that chapter to be expanded a bit more. The tools they mention throughout the book to help deal with XML were also extremely useful.
Nov 15, 2010 Maurizio Codogno rated it it was ok · review of another edition
Shelves: informatica, manuali, reference
Avevo preso questo libro perché speravo mi desse qualche dritta in più su come usare XML in pratica, ma all'atto pratico mi sono accorto che si limitava a fare vedere come usare le API dei vari sistemi come SAX, DOM o JDOM. Tanto valeva prendersi i manuali online, allora :-(

I just wanted to give you a bit of feedback about courthouse auctions. When you go to buy a home at auction at the courthouse you have to pay cash! Yep, that's right... cash!
I got started in real estate with foreclosures and that's what my investors and I used to do. The other problem with trying to buy a home before the foreclosure is that many of the homes are under water and many have large second mortgages on them. If you wait until after the auction and let the bank take the home back...aka "REO", "Real Estate Owned" or "Bank Owned" you will probably get a better deal.
As for the question, "Is it a good time to buy?"
If you look at mortgage rates over the last 25 years, we are at some of the lowest rates in history. That combined with the huge home prices makes for a great combination. Personally, I remind my clients that buying a home is a long term investment. Statistically, once a person buys their first home, they will be homeowners for the rest of their lives. That considered, if you are in a financially secure place to buy, then the time is not only right in the market... the time is right for you!
Good luck! I hope I was able to help a bit.

Then get tenants that roll in cash operating a crack shack. But they dont pay rent and you file a UD . Attorney charges you a fortune and after 6 months they smoke up the place and trash it. So you sock whats left into the home and then lose your job. Can't borrow against it so you can always think about dumping the shack a year or two later !
Conserve cash ! Wake the Hall up! Take me ...take me now!
The King
First time home buyers and investors have started to take advantage of this great time in Real Estate. There will probably never be a better time to buy Real Estate in our lifetime.
It is unlikely that interest rates will continue to decrease.
• We are seeing results with the current rates. There may be no incentive to lower them more.
• It is possible that we may see an inflationary period due to the money being printed.
• Inflation will cause an increase in interest rates as well as Real Estate prices. Real Estate is one of the best hedges against inflation.
It is unlikely that prices will continue to decrease and may have hit bottom.
• Replacement cost is higher. Builders will not build until prices go up enough for them to make a profit.
• Sellers will not sell until they have equity.
(Both factors will keep inventory low until prices go up)
• Inventory is decreasing and there is currently a shortage of available homes.
• We are mostly reliant on Bank Owned properties to fulfill the supply.
• We are experiencing multiple offers on reasonably priced properties.
For First Time home buyers (Have not owned a principal residence in three years) there is a tax credit that will expire December 1 2009.
• Buyers must close escrow by December 1, 2009.
• There could be a frenzy starting late summer.
• There could be a pre-frenzy frenzy starting the beginning of summer.
Sold prices are no longer spiraling downward. This is the time that people will be talking about as the time that they either bought a house or they wish they would have bought a house when it was cheep and interest rates were low.
Be the one who says "I'm glad I did†instead of the one who says "I wish I hadâ€
I just noticed that I wrote, "That combined with the huge home prices makes for a great combination."
What I meant to say was, "huge DROP in home prices."
Have a great day!
Most of the homes being offered on the court house steps are valued way under what is owed on them. Thats what they mean by being "upside down". Almost none of the homes that are auctioned on the court house steps sell there. So if the serious , experienced investors are not buying them that should tell you a whole lot.
In this market you are almost always better off waiting untill the bank forecloses and then lists them with a real estate agent as bank owned (REO). At that point the price will be competitive with other homes for sale in the area or even less.
As far as this being a good time to buy , I think it is. Prices are about half what they were in 2004 or 2005 and interest rates are great. Will prices continue to fall, probably. If you are buying a home to live in for 4 or 5 or more years it shouldnt make a difference.
As a last comment, the only way you will know that the Real Esate Market has hit bottom is when prices start going up again and then that bargain you had your eye on will be gone.
You are not that experienced. You probably need a loan to buy. Then the courthouse is probably not for you.
Any Realtor who can fog a mirror can find an investment house in Sacramento today for you that is half the price it was worth during the bubble. There are hundreds of "half - price" houses to choose from.
Thousands more that are 30% to 50% below their 2005 values.
You have to have the income and credit to qualify for the loan, you have to have money for a down payment. You need to have enough money to make any repairs needed. You have to be able to make the payments with your money until you find a tenant who can pay the rent to cover most or all of the mortgage payment, unless you are buying to live there yourself
Consider that you build real estate wealth by buying during the really bad market ( now ) and keeping the house for several years at least, until the house is worth much more during the next "hot market"
You will lose money if you buy now to sell it a month or two later.

That's Rhythm (2.25) looks an inviting bet at 25-1 to make the snowy trek down from Cumbria pay with a big run at Cheltenham tomorrow. With jumps racing set to take place for only the second time in nearly a fortnight, it is no surprise that trainers are keen to take advantage of the opportunities and three of the four televised contests have attracted tough-looking maximum fields.
Martin Todhunter's yard on the outskirts of Penrith has been as badly affected by the weather as anywhere in the country but the under-cover indoor schoolhas allowed his team to keep ticking over and That's Rhythm belied his outsider status when a good fifth in the Charlie Hall Chase last time out, beaten little more than a dozen lengths behind some high-class performers. He can look a difficult ride but he stays this trip well and the combination of Cheltenham's uphill finish and good ground will play to his strengths.
Carrickboy (1.15) returned from a long break with a good effort behind the serious Arkle Chase candidate Royal Charm at Exeter last month. He is unexposed as a steeplechaser but has clearly not lost his ability while off the track for 18 months.
Paddy Brennan presumably had the pick of Viking Blond and Ackertac (1.50) and it is interesting to see him opt for the latter whom, last time out, his mount finished eight lengths behind. The drop back to three miles and quicker ground is expected to help Ackertac.
Garde Champetre (3.00) found Lacdoudal in no mood to accept defeat last month but his prolific record around the cross-country course makes him the one to beat despite his welter burden.

Recently I've found myself discussing a commonly used e-mail marketing metric that, quite frankly, has me puzzled. The metric in question is "click-to-open" (CTO) or "click-to-open ratio" (CTOR) and a number of marketers use it. I've seen it described as "an important measure of the effectiveness of your e-mail message." One e-mail service provider's glossary apparently shares my puzzlement stating, "The Click-to-Open-Ratio is supposed to be a significant indicator of the quality of your campaign." What has me confused is: what precisely it is used for and why?
CTOR is a ratio or ratios, a second order metric. In the Email Experience Council's standardized e-mail marketing terms, CTOR is defined as clicks divided by e-mail renders. Most people call this click-through rate divided by open rate. The click-through rate (CTR) is the number of times a message is clicked divided by the number of accepted messages (traditionally called deliveries). The render rate is the number of times a tracking image is downloaded divided by the number of accepted messages.
Though critical for CTOR, since it is the divisor, render rate is problematic. Depending on whom you talk with, they may be discussing the unique render rate (which is what is recommended by the EEC), total render rate, or even confirmed open rate. Confirmed open rate being unique render rate plus any users who clicked but did not register an open.
Therein lies the first of my concerns with CTOR. When marketers disagree on the calculation of a metric, the metric's value significantly declines. Open rate is such a metric. Open rate values should always be approached with caution due to high variability. My concern is that when CTOR is used instead of CTR (and every client I know of that uses CTOR in practice uses it in preference to CTR) the lack of consistency of open-rate calculations is spread into the click-through figures too.
While reading up on why CTOR is useful, I found claims that non-openers can't click and when considering clicks we shouldn't care about those who can't click. I don't find this logic compelling. In most cases non-openers can click. The same piece argued that using CTOR evens out the variances in CTR. Given that both can be considered positive responses to a mailing, it's hardly surprising that if you divide one by the other and end up with a relatively even proportion. Therein lies my second concern. You have to be very careful with second order metrics as they can introduce unexpected variances and the logical relationships become complex.
CTR varies primarily based on the responsiveness of recipients receiving a mailing. Clearly there can be many reasons that such responsiveness varies including whether the mailing made it to the inbox, how the creative was presented, their engagement level, and more. However there is an additional set of reasons why open rate may vary including sender whitelist status, e-mail client platform (mobile, desktop, Web mail etc.) in addition to recipient responsiveness. The result is that open rate and CTR vary for overlapping but often independent reasons. This introduces far more complexity when comparing CTOR rates from mailing to mailing and particularly from campaign to campaign. Similar CTOR rates may mask widely disparate response rates and return on investment.
These two issues lead to my final concern. What does CTO tell me that CTR does not? I have yet to hear a cogent explanation of this. My cynical side suspects that since the divisor for CTOR is smaller than that for CTR it's being adopted by some because it's like CTR but bigger. If that's the case, people are being misled because the assumption isn't true. Yes it's bigger, but it's not just like CTR.
The key takeaway? As a marketer, you must clearly understand what metrics you're using, why you're using them, and what they tell you. This requires an understanding of both the mathematics (statistics) and how those metrics reflect the behaviors and activities you wish to monitor.
Having come out against click-to-open, I'm very interested to hear from anyone who can enlighten me as to what CTOR can show me that click-through rate does not.

Sole Mates: Looking for 'Profit with a Purpose' from Socially Conscious Footwear Customers
Creating an international company that sells shoes made in Africa has confronted Tal Dehtiar with a series of unexpected challenges. Among them: the color blue.
The only colors the factories are used to working with are black and brown, said Dehtiar, who came to Wharton recently as the first speaker in the 2009 Levy Social Impact Lecture Series. They have never had to make shoes that are gray or purple or blue or light blue. It still happens once in a while. They will give us a pair of shoes and one is light blue and one is dark blue, and they will say, 'What's wrong? It's blue.'
Dehtiar, who lives in Ontario, Canada, is founder and president of Oliberté, a start-up that hopes to produce casual footwear in Africa and sell it to socially minded consumers in the U.S., Canada, Europe and beyond. Oliberté -- a name Dehtiar made up by combining the Oh in Oh Canada! with the French word for freedom -- is a for-profit company, but Dehtiar believes it is profit with a purpose. To Dehtiar, that means building the company using fair trade principles such as guaranteeing factory workers a fair wage, paying farmers above market price for raw materials and keeping environmental impacts in mind.
I personally don't care about shoes, said Dehtiar, 29. I personally care about building jobs in Africa. We just want people to have jobs for the rest of their lives so that they have good pay and they can take care of themselves and their families.
Dehtiar envisions a shoe company that uses natural rubber from Liberia, harvested from hevea trees and processed locally. The company would then ship the rubber in sheets to Ethiopia, where workers in factories would cut it into soles and combine it with cow, sheep and goat leather from Ethiopian farmers. Shoes would be sold online and in exclusive shops in cities worldwide. As sales grow, Dehtiar hopes to expand operations to as many as 10 African nations.
Dehtiar believes his target market will be affluent adults between 18 and 45 who are part of the so-called LOHAS movement -- consumers focused on Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability. According to www.lohas.com, the LOHAS market in the U.S. is a $209 billion market of about 41 million Americans -- approximately 19% of the U.S. population -- who focus on health, the environment, social justice, personal development and sustainable living. There are about 60 million North American adults who care about and are willing to buy [products] that are fair trade, Dehtiar says. He anticipates an even bigger buzz about his product in Europe and Japan, where the LOHAS movement is stronger.
A Very Patient Wife
It is too early to tell if Oliberté (www.Oliberté.com) can profit from its purpose. After an exhaustive search, Dehtiar has found three factories he likes in Ethiopia, but he is still struggling to set up the rubber processing plant in Liberia, and has been forced to use rubber from Sri Lanka for his first 3,000 pairs of shoes. Oliberté launched officially on October 1 and hopes to have shoes on store shelves in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and Seattle by February or March of 2010. Still, he has yet to find an investor willing to provide the $250,000 to $300,000 he needs to keep the company humming. So far he has spent more than $100,000 in personal savings, loans from family and small lines of credit to get the company off the ground.
The bank says, 'We're not going to help you out. Africa is too risky,' Dehtiar noted. So I've been putting a lot of my money -- luckily, I have a very patient wife, so it's 'our money,' not 'my money' -- into this. But I love my job. I love my life. Yes, we're broke but we'll make our money. I'm not worried about that.
If he remains undaunted, it may be because Dehtiar has a history of taking on big challenges. In 2004, he and Michael W. Brown co-founded the charity MBAs Without Borders using seed money from Wyeth Canada, where Dehtiar worked as a medical sales rep, and DeGroote School of Business at McMaster University in Ontario, where he got his MBA. When I was running MBAs Without Borders, for the first year, I didn't take a single [penny in] salary. We just didn't have the money. Then the second year, I brought in about $1,000 a month, he said.
MBAs Without Borders sends young MBA volunteers to the developing world to provide guidance and expertise for business development. Over the past five years, the organization has sent more than 100 MBAs to projects in 25 countries, mostly in Africa. Projects have ranged from a handicraft cooperative for HIV-positive women in Swaziland to a product placement campaign in Nigerian films for mosquito nets.
Five years of extensive travel through Africa and conversations with people across the continent sparked Dehtiar's interest in starting a business there, he said. People told him, Look, Tal, we don't need another ... charity. We need jobs. Charity is not the real way to solve poverty, Dehtiar said. You cannot keep giving people things. Over and over again it is a mistake we see, these handouts. You give away T-shirts. You give away money. You give away food. I believe in an emergency, in a crisis, you do need emergency aid ... but once a country is stable enough, you don't need handouts. You need to build jobs. You need to create a middle class. You need to create small businesses.
Although he knew little about the shoe industry itself, Dehtiar knew a lot about working with international companies -- and a lot about his target market. I understood the kind of consumer who wanted something socially responsible. I knew what they wanted both from a charitable point of view as well as from a materialistic point of view.
Dehtiar also wanted to build a company that would endure over time. Shoes have been worn for thousands of years and will continue to be worn in the future, he said. Choosing to make an existing product in a new way appealed to him. Entrepreneurs can be successful if they do their homework and capitalize on what they already know best, Dehtiar stated. Everybody wants to reinvent the wheel, but there's nothing wrong with doing what's available and doing it better.
Skipping the Bribes
He got the chance to pursue the idea after CDC Development Solutions, a Washington D.C.-based nonprofit, acquired MBAs Without Borders in January.
At first, he wanted to build a shoe factory in Liberia, which has a large supply of natural rubber but exports most of it unprocessed. An exploratory trip proved that idea would be too expensive. When I left Liberia, I realized I couldn't afford to build a shoe factory. And yet, there was this rubber.
Dehtiar decided he would try to set up a small-scale rubber processing plant in Liberia and ship the rubber to Ethiopia, which already had tanneries and a budding shoe industry. He researched the rubber-making process and ordered the equipment: custom stainless steel drums from Portugal and heavy rollers from Thailand. Talk about challenges, Dehtiar said. We shipped that in March. It just cleared customs last week. Why? For the last three months, there have been a couple of officials who wanted a bribe. I refused to pay it. That's not how we do business, because if you pay one bribe, you'll have to pay another bribe. I don't feel right about that. He remains optimistic that his contact on the ground in Liberia will get the plant running within the next six weeks. We're hoping to show others that you can do something with this resource.
Factories in Ethiopia posed different challenges. A lot of times, they don't follow the design, he said. Quality of samples could vary even within the same factory. In one case, Dehtiar severed a relationship with a factory after finding out the owner employed underage workers and didn't pay as high a wage as he said he would. Dehtiar looked at eight factories and ran competitions between four of them before choosing three. When we finally launched the company, I think we were on version number 45 of the business plan, he said.
Dehtiar has made three trips to Africa so far and plans to make another before the end of the year. In the process of setting up the company, he relied heavily on contacts he had in Africa to interview factory owners and workers, including one former intern from MBAs Without Borders who stayed for six months in Ethiopia to help. Dehtiar now has four people on his team: a part-time designer in Canada and three locally-hired contacts in Ethiopia and Liberia who oversee operations full time.
He is looking ahead to a positive cash flow sometime between November 2010 and February 2011. The goal: $1.5 million in sales in 2011 -- or 15,000 pairs of shoes at about $100 per pair. Those numbers are conservative, based on about half of what shoe companies such as Toms and Veja sold in their first three years, Dehtiar said. Based on those numbers, we can thrive.
Oliberté has kept marketing costs low so far. We don't do a lot of traditional marketing. We only spend our money on going to trade shows. We don't do billboards, we don't do radio ads. He plans to focus on online sales and ramp up the brand's exclusivity by selling through small boutiques and select chain stores. We like to work with [only] one retailer in every city, Dehtiar said. In the U.S., the company has secured spots on the shelves of Solefood in Seattle, the Bus Stop in Philadelphia, Hanig's in Chicago, and David Z in New York City. Europe may soon follow: Dehtiar says he receives four to five emails per week from people in Europe who want to distribute the shoes.
Still, it's a hard sell to investors. His costs are three times that of shoes produced in Asia, so margins are tight. He hopes for $2.5 million in revenue in five years, but investors want to see at least $10 million. Dehtiar has approached more than 35 potential benefactors, with little success. They say, 'I can't give you that kind of money because you're only giving me a 12% return over the long run, and I want 20% to 25%.'
Over time, he has learned to focus on sales, orders and celebrity interest in his product when talking to investors, rather than playing up the African connection. For us to be an African brand would be a huge marketing mistake. As much as people love the story, they care about the numbers.
His advice to start-ups: Find the capital ahead of time. You can't expect somebody to give you a million dollars just because you have a good idea. In May, Dehtiar taped an episode of Dragon's Den in Canada, the equivalent of ABC's Shark Tank, a reality show where entrepreneurs pitch their business ideas to venture capitalists for financing. He can't discuss results of the show because it hasn't aired yet -- but will say that he's still looking for the right investor. Indeed, Dehtiar's ultimate challenge may end up being the color green.


text: DeKalb County Schools DeKalb Becomes Largest Ga. District Opposing School Takeover By Martha Dalton • Sep 20, 2016 David Goldman / Associated Press Opposition to Gov. Nathan Deal's school takeover plan continues to grow. The DeKalb County school board voted Monday to urge its residents to vote "no" on the ballot measure. The 5-1 decision makes DeKalb the largest school district, so far, to take a stand against the ballot measure. Deal's proposed Opportunity School District would create a state-run school system that would manage so-called "chronically failing" schools, or schools that earn an "F" for three consecutive years on the state's report card. Stephen Green Reflects On First Year As DeKalb's Superintendent By Martha Dalton • Jul 20, 2016 Courtesy of DeKalb County Schools It's been a year since the DeKalb County Schools hired Dr. R. Stephen Green to lead Georgia's third-largest school system. Green hailed from the Kansas City, Missouri, schools, which went through accreditation problems similar to DeKalb's. DeKalb became fully accredited in February, after serious sanctions from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools due to poor management and governance. Recently, Green sat down with WABE's Martha Dalton to talk about his first year as DeKalb's schools chief and his plans for this year. DeKalb Names Schools After President Obama, John Lewis Charles Dharapak / Associated Press Two public schools in DeKalb County will be named after two legendary politicians, including the current president. The Barack H. Obama Elementary Magnet School of Technology will open its doors in January. The school, which will be located on the 3100 block of Clifton Church Road in Decatur, will cost $23 million. It will be the first public school in Georgia named after the 44th president. DeKalb School Board Directs More Money Toward Classrooms By Martha Dalton • Jun 23, 2016 Al Such / WABE The DeKalb County school board has approved a budget for the upcoming year. The district is directing more money toward the classroom than it has in past years. The plan includes almost $20 million for staff raises, $4 million for signing and retention bonuses for teachers and $2 million to develop district-wide curricula. DeKalb Voters Pass E-SPLOST Renewal By Record-Setting Margin By Martha Dalton • May 26, 2016 Martha Dalton / WABE On Tuesday, voters in DeKalb and Fulton counties and the cities of Atlanta and Decatur approved the renewal of a one-cent sales tax for school renovations. DeKalb's Education Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (E-SPLOST) passed by a record-setting 71 percent margin, according to school district officials. Lawmaker Opposes DeKalb E-SPLOST, Wants Detailed Projects List By Martha Dalton • May 20, 2016 Andrew Harnik / Associated Press DeKalb County's Henderson Middle School is under construction. It's getting new classrooms, a bigger media center and a new band suite, among other renovations. The updates are all funded by a 1-cent Education Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax, or E-SPLOST. On Tuesday, voters in several metro Atlanta counties will decide whether to renew the tax, which expires in July 2017. State Sen. Fran Millar, R-Dunwoody, is opposing DeKalb's E-SPLOST vote this year because the district decided not to publish a detailed project list. Letter From Obama Enflames Georgia Fight Over Restrooms By Johnny Kauffman • May 16, 2016 Associated Press Anthony Walden was one of dozens of frustrated Fannin County, Georgia, residents that marched from a church to a school board meeting Thursday to call on officials to defy the federal government, and block transgender students from using restrooms that correspond to their gender identity. A letter from the White House, made public a few hours later, only furthered Walden's frustration. Atlanta School Gives All Kids A Chance In The Spotlight By Amy Kiley • Mar 10, 2016 Courtesy of the DeKalb School of the Arts This story is part of WABE and American Graduate's Advancing Atlanta: Education series.

WABE's series on what works in Atlanta-area education turns to the DeKalb School of the Arts to try for an objective assessment. Arts and Academics Decatur School Uses Fish Poop To Grow Interest In STEM Fields By Tasnim Shamma • Mar 8, 2016 Alison Guillory / WABE This story is part of WABE and American Graduate's Advancing Atlanta: Education series. For more stories, click here. Researchers say the United States is short on students who are pursuing science, technology, engineering and math careers – the group of subjects known as STEM. DeKalb Schools Still Face Hurdles Despite Accreditation Victory By Denis O'Hayer • Mar 7, 2016 In early February, the DeKalb County public school system regained full accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, or SACS. It had been some three years since SACS put DeKalb on probation, citing board mismanagement and an atmosphere of "conflict and chaos" in the school system. DeKalb Superintendent: District Is Rethinking Discipline Procedures By Martha Dalton • Mar 7, 2016 Courtesy of DeKalb County Schools In a new opinion-editorial, DeKalb County Superintendent Stephen Green says the district is reconsidering its discipline policies. The piece is a response to a recent article in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, which noted two DeKalb high schools had more out-of-school suspensions during the 2014-15 school year than enrolled students.

For more stories, click here. Can theater help young school children learn? The men and women behind the Alliance Theatre certainly think so. In 2011, they began their Theatre for the Very Young program, which not only brings children into the theater, but brings theater -- and all of its benefits -- to them. Residents Worry Cell Tower May Hurt Acworth Property Values By Tasnim Shamma • Feb 18, 2016 Stephen Dettling (cropped) / flickr.com/photos/sdettling/ Cobb County commissioners have approved building a 165-foot cell tower on a 34-acre church property in Acworth, but more than two dozen residents who live near Wildwood Baptist Church say they're concerned it will hurt their property values. Dave Griffith is president of the real estate firm Relocal Home and relocation agency Relocal Move in Kennesaw. He has lived in Clearwater Estates, which is near the proposed cellphone tower, for the past 29 years. Property Values DeKalb Schools Regain Full Accreditation After Over 3 Years By Martha Dalton • Feb 2, 2016 The DeKalb County School System has regained full accreditation. The district was slapped with a probationary sanction in 2012 after a scathing report from its accrediting agency, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, or SACS. Mark Elgart, the CEO of AdvancEd, SACS' parent company, said the school board worked to achieve its new status by establishing policies, improving operations and stabilizing the district's leadership. DeKalb Schools Overcrowding Meeting Targets Latino Parents By Martha Dalton • Jan 22, 2016 Dan Raby / WABE For the second time this week, a group of parents met Thursday night to discuss overcrowding at some DeKalb public schools. The meeting, aimed at Spanish-speaking parents, was held at the Latin American Association (LAA), a nonprofit outreach organization. A group of about 50 Latino parents gathered to hear information and give feedback about redistricting plans for Cross Keys High School and the schools that feed into it. Most of the schools have high Latino populations and are over-capacity. So, the schools are using more than 100 portable classrooms to accommodate everyone. Cross Keys Cluster Redistricting Concern DeKalb Parents By Martha Dalton • Jan 20, 2016 Dan Raby / WABE About a hundred DeKalb County parents showed up at a meeting Tuesday night to try to figure out how to ease overcrowding at some schools. The school district has proposed several short-term solutions, all of which involve redistricting. The district has come up with three different plans for elementary schools and two for high schools. No changes are planned for Sequoyah Middle School. All of the options involve shuffling kids from schools that are over-capacity to ones that have room. Parents: DeKalb Special Education Program Still Needs Improvement By Martha Dalton • Dec 29, 2015 Nick Nesmith/WABE This year, a group of parents in DeKalb County are starting to see their persistence pay off. Fighting for Rights Parents, like Kirk Lunde, are fighting for their children's education. Lunde's son, DeShawn Lunde, is in high school now. Every year, Lunde has had to make sure DeShawn gets the classes he needs. DeShawn has a hard time expressing himself, and his father said he needs help with social skills. Some DeKalb Teachers Could Get Big Pay Bumps By Martha Dalton • Dec 7, 2015 Nick Nesmith / WABE DeKalb County teachers could get a pay boost if the school board approves a new salary proposal Monday night. Under the plan, every teacher would see a pay increase of at least 2 percent. Those with seven to 17 years of experience would get the biggest bump. DeKalb Superintendent Stephen Green says the district did its research, and it found out it pays teachers in that experience range thousands less than other Atlanta school systems. Atlanta, DeKalb Schools Try To Ward Off Potential State Takeover By Martha Dalton • Oct 28, 2015 Martha Dalton / WABE Some Atlanta-area communities could lose control of their struggling schools if voters approve a plan proposed by Gov. Nathan Deal next fall. The two districts with the most schools at risk are DeKalb County and Atlanta Public Schools. The pressure is on, and the districts are pulling out all the stops to avoid a potential state takeover. Pressure To Perform At a recent DeKalb school board meeting, Morcease Beasley, DeKalb's executive director of curriculum and instruction, explained the district's plan to avoid a potential state takeover. How Some Teachers Handle Race And Politics In The Classroom By Martha Dalton • Aug 27, 2015 Martha Dalton / WABE Students returned to class this month after a summer filled with tragic events, like the murder of nine African-American church members in Charleston, South Carolina. That and other high-profile cases have added fuel to movements like "Black Lives Matter." Here in Atlanta, social studies teachers are having discussions about race and politics in their classrooms. WABE spoke with a group of teachers at the DeKalb School of the Arts to see how they approach those conversations. Making Connections DeKalb Parents: Testing Conflicts With Jewish, Muslim Holidays By Michell Eloy • Aug 24, 2015 Phil Roeder / flickr.com/tabor-roeder Some DeKalb County parents are upset with the county school district for scheduling mandatory testing on Jewish and Muslim holidays. The DeKalb School District has slated the Cognitive Abilities Test and the Iowa Test of Basic Skills from Sept. 8-11 and Sept. 14-25, respectively. The two tests are mandatory for children in grades 1, 3, 5 and 7, and help with placement in gifted and special programs. This year's testing dates, however, fall over the Jewish holidays of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, as well as the Muslim holiday, Eid al-Adha. DeKalb, Clayton Schools Short On Teachers As Classes Begin By Lisa Hagen • Aug 10, 2015 Martha Dalton / WABE It's the first day of school for many Atlanta-area students, but some school systems are still looking for teachers. DeKalb County schools have job postings up seeking close to 200 instructors in various positions. Clayton County needs about 115 teachers. "We do have about 800 or 900 substitute teachers – these are people with four-year degrees. And so we have those people on standby and on call," said Dr. Douglas Hendricks Sr., chief of Human Relations for Clayton County schools. DeKalb Superintendent: Special Education Department 'Under Reconstruction' By Martha Dalton • Aug 3, 2015 Martha Dalton / WABE Some parents of children with special needs in the DeKalb schools are not satisfied with the service they get. The group said the district's Special Education Department was ineffective – citing poor communication and a failure to get services their kids are entitled to by law. In an interview, DeKalb Superintendent Stephen Green responded to the parents' complaints. He said they have a right to be upset. Metro Atlanta Schools Search For Special Education Teachers By Michelle Wirth • Jul 24, 2015 Martha Dalton / WABE Georgia's largest school systems are still searching for dozens of special education teachers. The districts only have a few weeks before students head back to the classroom on Aug. 10. So far, the Gwinnett school district has hired more than 1,400 new teachers. But it still needs to fill nearly 40 special education positions. Gwinnett County Public Schools spokeswoman Sloan Roach says a nationwide shortage of special education teachers has made hiring them more challenging. DeKalb Board Member Says Superintendent Search Wasn't Transparent By Martha Dalton • May 28, 2015 Nick Nesmith / WABE The DeKalb school board voted Thursday to offer Stephen Green, of the Kansas City Schools, a three-year contract as its new superintendent. But one board member is not happy with the decision. Board member Joyce Morley was the lone dissenting vote. "There was a major conflict of interest that has taken place throughout this process," she said. The board hired firm PROACT to lead the search. It later fired the company because its CEO was embroiled in controversy. Morley implied several candidates, including Green, had ties to the CEO. Green denied that last week. DeKalb Superintendent Finalist Expected To Get Contract By Martha Dalton • May 28, 2015 Martha Dalton / WABE The DeKalb County school system is expected to officially name a new superintendent Thursday. The school board will vote on whether to offer a contract to Stephen Green, who currently leads the Kansas City schools. It was clear two weeks ago Green would be offered the job. But legally, the board had to wait until Thursday to vote on a contract. During a visit to DeKalb last week, Green said he'd be a hands-on leader. DeKalb's Outgoing School Superintendent Prepares Hand-Off By WABE Staff • May 26, 2015 Nick Nesmith / WABE The new DeKalb County schools superintendent is getting ready to take the reins of one of the largest school districts in Georgia. Stephen Green is the current superintendent of the Kansas City school system. He is scheduled to take over the DeKalb County school system on July 1. Green will replace former state Labor Commissioner Michael Thurmond. Thurmond has been in charge of the county school system for the past two years. DeKalb Superintendent Finalist 'Taking Stock' Of District By Martha Dalton • May 21, 2015 Martha Dalton / WABE DeKalb County's sole finalist for school superintendent wraps up a three-day visit to the district Thursday. Stephen Green currently leads the Kansas City Schools in Missouri. Green met with school leaders, staff and parents during his trip. He said he's coming in with an open mind, but he's also taking inventory. "I am taking stock, not just in terms of the facility and the resources — financial — but also, human capital," he said. "I'm assessing: What do we have here? What do we preserve, protect, keep, enhance, and what do we need to change or modify?" Kansas City Superintendent Chosen To Lead DeKalb Schools By Martha Dalton • May 14, 2015 Martha Dalton / WABE Stephen Green, from the Kansas City Schools, has been chosen for the job of DeKalb County superintendent. The DeKalb County school board made the announcement Wednesday night. Green has led the Kansas City schools since 2012, after the district lost accreditation. DeKalb County school board chairman Melvin Johnson credited Green with turning things around. "Dr. Green brought back the Kansas City school district to provisional certification," Johnson said. "He has demonstrated innovative approaches to teaching and learning and moving student achievement forward." DeKalb County Schools To Announce Superintendent Finalist By Martha Dalton • May 13, 2015 Elle Moxley / WCUR The DeKalb County School District has picked a superintendent finalist. Sources tell WABE the district has tapped Stephen Green, the head of the Kansas City Schools in Missouri. Green took over the Kansas City Schools in 2012 after the district lost accreditation. The DeKalb school board is expected to announce his candidacy at a press conference Wednesday night. The board will have to wait 14 days before offering him a contract. Pages1 2 3 4 5 next › last »

- Bapu, Martin Luther appear in teenagers' comic series
AHMEDABAD: Can you imagine calling a helpline to seek guidance on how to handle discrimination and being counselled by Mahatma Gandhi or Martin Luther King Jr? A group of 30 students — 15 from schools across 11 states in US and 15 from a city school — have imagined and translated this in comic series. This series is one among six others brought together by students who are part of an exchange programme. Facilitated by Mahatma Gandhi International School, the exchange programme has 15 students from schools in 11 states of the US visiting Ahmedabad as part of their three-week India tour. As part of their city tour, the group of students was taken for a visit to Sabarmati Ashram on Friday. Identifying the similarity in ideologies of Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr, leader of the African- American Civil Rights Movement, the students were asked to contemplate on how the two leaders would see the world today. Program coordinator Meenakshi Gaweriwala explained, "More than finding similarities of differences in these two personalities, children have focused in values and they have go introduced to know more about these two personalities." As part of the project, students are working on six comic series that are creatively set in call centres and have interesting titles like 'Divided by Nations - United by School'. Alexandra Hurst, 18, a student from Colorado said, "It is about a call center where both the leaders are receiving calls about problems of discrimination. It is based on my experiences."

Recent reviews
Excellent 4.0 /5 from 30 reviews
The Hotel was Awesome and Every Staff Member was super Friendly Would Book With Them Again
Room smelled like old smoke upon arrival. In the evening they had rented the conference room out to a party and the music was excessive. We called down twice and went down to the front desk twice. The desk clerk was extremely nice and said they would talk to them. After an hour later I went back down and spoke with clerk, he said they were finishing dinner and would be ending soon. After another long hour and a half the music was finally over. We asked to be moved but they claimed they didn't have another room. The walls are extremely thin and there is no sound proofing. I understand this is the type of motel that people rent for the month or longer so I understand this is not a 5 star hotel, however a guest should be able to rest without the blaring sound of a conference room party. And this hotel does not have a bar or diner so this was a conference room party.
Nice and quiet place
A standard hotel that was just average, nothing bad to say, but nothing great to say either
Front desk staff very accommodating - let me check in early and made me a fresh pot of coffee in the cafe so I could work at night. Facility is old, possible mold on ceiling in shower. Room smelled STRONG of smoke, but I couldn't change bc hotel was full. I didn't know it was pet friendly till I arrived. Love animals, but don't want 100 pet's residue in my carpet.
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

(The Root) — At the ceremony for the National Medals of Science and the National Medal of Technology and Innovation, held at the White House on Friday, President Obama awarded the highest honors bestowed by the U.S. government upon scientists, engineers and inventors.
"If there is one idea that sets this country apart, one idea that makes us different from every other nation on Earth, it's that here in America, success does not depend on where you were born or what your last name is. Success depends on the ideas that you can dream up, the possibilities that you envision, and the hard work — the blood, sweat and tears — you're willing to put in to make them real," the president said as he introduced the 23 scientists and inventors who received medals in the East Room ceremony.
Those sentiments about overcoming adversity through determination were likely all the more true for the African-American science and technology pioneers honored on this first day of Black History Month.
National Medal of Science recipient Sylvester James Gates Jr. of the University of Maryland earned his place on the list for contributions to the mathematics of supersymmetry in particle, field and string theories and extraordinary efforts to engage the public on the beauty and wonder of fundamental physics.
George Carruthers of the U.S. Naval Research Lab, who was awarded the National Medal of Technology and Innovation, made his impact with the invention of the far UV electrographic camera, which significantly improved our understanding of space and earth science.
The president's remarks included an appeal to create the conditions for similar achievements by the next generation. "Right now," he said, "only about a third of undergraduate students are graduating with degrees in science, technology, engineering and math — areas that will be crucial if we expect to complete the work that has been done by these folks and compete for the jobs of the future."
