""Komentarz: Maciej Z - "Giżycko", dnia lip 27, 2011
Bardzo dobry motel, czysty i zadbany, mały basen, piękna okolica. Trochę daleko od centrum miasteczka, ale dobra restauracja (Barking Frog) w odległości spaceru. Cena więcej, niż przyzwoita. W czasie podróży po USA spałem w kilkunastu budżetowych motelach i ten był najlepszy.

Locals live and shop in West Sedona, which has earned the nickname "The Real Sedona." This community is directly north of Red Rock State Park, a 286-acre site once part of a private ranch. The park's trails provide close views of the flora, fauna, and distinct geology. Those averse to hiking can explore the red rocks in with style: Pink Jeep Tours' off-road adventures are a tourist favorite.

Great location, wonderful, helpful and very warm staff members. Definitely would stay here again.Prawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com
"Very Quaint"
This is a small quaint hotel. All the necessities were available however it took 1/2 hour to warm up the TV before it would stop humming. I would recommend they upgrade their TVs to flat screen. Meeting the innkeeper the next morning and listening to his stories of Hollywood was very entertaining and interesting.Prawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com
"Just OK"
This hotel was ok for the price. We knew it wasn't a resort, but the whole place seemed dark and musty. The pool and garden was nice and a good place to be if you don't smoke. Because the room was dark, we couldn't tell if the carpet was clean and we didn't want to take off our shoes. Bring your own soap and shampoo because those provided were bottom […] of the barrel quality. We definitely recommend this hotel for someone on a budget, and if you weren't planning to spend a lot of time in the room. But if you're looking for a resort, this isn't the place.

"Baby Quail Inn Review"
We loved it even though it needs some modern update. Flat screen TV's would be nice, although the old box TV worked fine! The place is very pristeen and the staff are so warm and welcoming! The owner, a retired TV actor, met us in the dining room/museum at breakfast and we talked for over an hour. He was very entertaining and interesting, plus a great […] storyteller! We would go back in a heartbeat because if the accommodating staff and the price was right! Przeczytaj więcejPrawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com

"Excellent Find"
What a pleasent surprise to find the Baby Quail Inn. An affordable gem among overpriced lodging in Sedona. The owners are friendly and welcoming, the rooms are clean and comfortable. You feel that you've been transported back to an earlier time when locally owned hotels were the norm not the exception.Prawdziwa opinia gościa Expedia
"Baby Quail Inn, Sedona, AZ."
Perfect little inn. Friendly and informative staff. Centrally located half a block off main drag. Great small town feel. Much better than the big hotels. Will definitely go back!!!Prawdziwa opinia gościa Expedia

"Sedona---we were very comfortable enjoyed"
The motel was easy to find. Very clean. Enjoyed the garden and plants Sedona is beautifulPrawdziwa opinia gościa Expedia
"Exceeded expectations"
Stayed here for one night while passing through Sedona. Our very clean and comfortable room provided everything we needed and more (e.g. bathrobes). The staff were friendly and accessible and the breakfast was a nice selection of fruit, yogurt, cereals, and a few other items. We would definitely return in the future.Prawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com
"More Like Bed and Breakfast"
The extra touches - extremely friendly staff, potted flowers ourside each room, garden area with tables and umbrellas, room colors and furnishings like a guest room in a home - made this stop more like a bed and breakfast. Room was small with a small TV, refrig, microwave (but we didn't come to Sedona to watch TV or stay in our room) and a nice bathroom. […] Restaurants around the corner. Excellent muffins in the continental breakfast which we ate in the garden. Very pleasant stay! Przeczytaj więcejPrawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com

"Pleasant but basic"
Nice location and friendly vibe. Rooms are adequate, bathrooms are nice. Outdoor whirlpool was a nice feature,Prawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com
"Comfortable and convenient"
The Baby Quail is close to all the outdoors that Sedona has to offer. It is not what I would consider close walking distance from the downtown shops, but I came for the hiking, biking, and sightseeing, and it was more than amenable to easily get to those locations. The quiet hotel also has a hot tub that I made use of each night, and friendly owners. […] I enjoyed my stay. Przeczytaj więcejPrawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com
"Excellent small hotel with a great staff"
The staff at the hotel were fabulous. Ally, who checked us in, also provided help with the best hiking destinations and where to eat. Dick and his wife, Misty, the owners of the hotel, regaled us during breakfast with stories of Hollywood. The room and grounds were exceptionally clean and tidy and had everything we needed, in a nice quiet setting just […] off the main drag through town.

"ray of sunshine"
We arrived on a gloomy,rainy Saturday. Altho it was a good hour before check-in time, the cheerful clerk did not hesitate in giving us our room and a brief rundown of the motel amenities,etc. The room was clean, but the bed could use an upgrade. The hilite of our stay came the next day when a true ray of sunshine presented itself in the form of Dick […] Curtis! As the owner, this man exuded a true love of life and brightened our breakfast with stories of his show business career.

The wall is too thin, I can hear next door having xxx. The internet was slow, but later became faster. The owner is a very interesting man.Prawdziwa opinia gościa Expedia
"Old school"
This was the description that the innkeeper used when checking us in and it's accurate. If you are looking for a fancy resort in Sedona this won't be the place to stay, but if you want a room that is pleasant, clean and well placed in town, this is a good pick. The hotel is older and certainly you can tell this. What it lacks in amenities (and it does […] have a hot tub, fridge and breakfast) it makes up for in the couple that runs the place. The man is a former TV and movie actor and treats you to many stories about the parts he played and celebs he knew. His wife is equally charming. The room is small, but in Sedona there is so much to do that you probably won't be spending tons of time indoors. Breakfast, served daily, is continental and has plenty of simple choices.

"Owners made the stay."
The husband and wife team were a joy. The owner is a retired "working actor" as he calls himself, who worked with many famous people.

"A real charmer"
The Baby Quail Inn is a charming place to stay. My room was comfortable, clean and spacious. The shower was excellent too and outside my room there was a little private patio with a lounger and table which I really appreciated after a day of hiking. The Baby Quail Inn is located in West Sedona not Uptown Sedona and I thought that was a real advantage. […] Uptown Sedona is where all the main shopping is but I found that quite a few of the locals were ambivalent towards tourists and in a couple of shops they were quite rude. In West Sedona if you don't have a car like me, you can easily catch the Lynx bus all over Sedona for a dollar. There's also a taxi service if you need it. Across the road from the Baby Quail there is a huge shopping centre with lots of eateries and the prize store for me - New Frontiers, the organic supermarket. It has everything you could want plus a big salad bar and pre-prepared meals. I walked to Tlalaqueplaque arts and crafts district from the Baby Quail which was a longish walk but once I got there its shady and cool and much nicer than Uptown Sedona. Also had a great meal at the Secret Garden in Tlaqueplaque. I highly recommend the Baby Quail, it's great value for money. Przeczytaj więcejPrawdziwa opinia gościa Expedia

All doctrines of MODERN Christianity are made by Men, including, Trinity, Divine Sonship of Jesus, Divinity of Jesus Christ, Original Sin, and Atonement. Jesus says himself, clearly that he never claimed divinity or identity to God, FOR RELIGIOUS TEXT PROOF, I provide the following:
1) I do nothing of myself John 8:28
2) My Father is greater than I John 14:28
3) The Lord our God is one Lord Mark 12:29
4) Father, into Thy hands I commend my spirit Luke 23:46
5) But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no not the angels which are in heaven neither the son, but the Father Mark 13:32
What other compelling arguments can I display?
God never Sleeps.. Jesus did - Psalm 121:4
Jesus was tempted by the devil for 40 days (Luke 1:1-13) but yet in James 1:13 we find that God cannot be tempted by evil How can Jesus be God then?
I use the scripture because that is what can be found in Thessalonians 5:21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good as well as previously stated, For God is not the author of confusiion (I cor 14:33)

For Project Milwaukee: Southern Connections, one analyst says Wisconsin has nothing to fear Chicago's growth northward. Julio Rivera is Provost at Carthage College in Kenosha. He's the chair of the Geography department and also teaches earth science. He also runs the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) lab. His research looks at the development of suburban communities and urban planning. He spoke with Stephanie Lecci.
We discuss of the role culture plays in regional growth as part of our Project Milwaukee: Southern Connections series. Paula Touhey is the Director of the Kenosha Public Museums, which include the Kenosha Public Museum, the Kenosha Civil War Museum, and the Dinosaur Discovery Museum. We spoke with her at her office in Kenosha. We'll continue our look at the place of culture in the regional economy on tomorrow's show.
This week WUWM is reporting on the potential of regional development within the corridor spanning from Milwaukee south to the greater Chicago area.
Today we poke into the health of the region's environment. We hear alerts when the air quality is poor because of exhaust and the particular air flow here – and air pollution can thwart the development of new factories. And we've been hearing plenty about the threat of Asian carp to Lake Michigan, coming via Chicago's link with the Mississippi River.
But WUWM Environmental Reporter Susan Bence learned about two projects in the region having healing affects on their surroundings.
As Project Milwaukee continues, we hear how communities in the southern corridor approach land-use planning. Each city, town and village has its own comprehensive land use plan, but some wish planning was conducted more regionally.
Milwaukee County Supervisor Patricia Jursik insists the future economy of southeast Wisconsin needs roads, rail and bus to move workers to jobs.
A key ingredient to economic development is transportation. So as we continue our series, Project Milwaukee – Southern Connections, we explore transportation in southeast Wisconsin.
We spent time chatting with Milwaukee County Supervisor Patricia Jursik, a long time proponent of extending roadways and transit systems south to the state line. Here are a few opinions she shared.

Kenya Tours and Safaris
- Masai Mara
- Lake Nakuru
- Samburu Game Reserve
- Mt. Kenya
- Lake Naivasha
It could be argued that "safari" was born in Kenya, with the primal drama of lion, leopard and cheetah hungrily following a sea of wildebeest so immense, at times it seems the earth itself is moving. Africa's single most famous safari draw, the annual Great Migration occurs every September and October as animals travel between Tanzania's Serengeti and Kenya's Masai Mara park reserve. The park takes its name from famous nomadic Maasai people, who wander as freely across the Kenya-Tanzania border as their cattle. There is more to Kenya than safari, though: from coral reefs and white sand beaches to tea plantations, plus a tourism infrastructure that can get you to all of them, you're not likely to get bored.
Nairobi to Joburg Overland (DKBJ)
Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Kruger National Park, Lake Malawi, Zanzibar, Victoria Falls—we originally called this trip 'Africa Complete,' but those pesky lawyers made us change it. While it may not feature all of Africa, it's still pretty darn close: Wildlife safaris, cultural contact, rugged landscapes and natural landmarks spread across six incredible countries. And with supremely knowledgeable CEOs, meals prepared from fresh local produce and starlit camping stays, you'll gain a kinship with this land and its people you won't find anywhere else.
Highlights: Spot the Big Five from 4x4 safari vehicles, inhale the aromas of a spice plantation, snorkel Zanzibar's waters, gaze out across Victoria Falls, spot wildlife in Kruger National Park, discover the less-visited Zimbabwe, walk in search of rhinos in Matobo National Park.
Joburg to Nairobi Overland (DAJB)
Connecting two major hubs, this overland journey will take you from Johannesburg to Nairobi and into the stunning wilderness of the six countries that lie in between. Track Africa's Big Five on game drives in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro and head to the Okavango Delta for a game walk and mokoro canoe excursion. Inhale the mists of Victoria Falls and the fragrant air of spice plantations in Zanzibar. You'll make your discoveries from a rugged overland truck, ready to take on Africa. Combine this with bush camping, a social atmosphere and a comprehensive itinerary and you have one hell of an adventure.
Highlights: Marvel at Victoria Falls, track rhinos at the Khama Rhino Sanctuary, experience 4x4 game drives in Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater, immerse yourself in ancient cultures with traditional dancing, spend three glorious days on exotic Zanzibar.

Dieting May Cause The Brain to Eat Itself
There are plenty of theories for why diets don't work, why the pounds won't go away or they come back so quickly: Diets make you tired. They eat away at healthy muscle. They're unnatural and can't be followed for a lifetime. They may be unhealthy and lacking in vital nutrients. They can lead to eating disorders.
But now a group of researchers from Albert Einstein College of Medicine have a new theory—dieting causes the brain to eat itself. (Their study is published today in Cell Metabolism.)
Scientists have known for a while that when a body becomes starved for sustenance, cells start eating bits and pieces of themselves. It's a process known as "autophagy" and one that's a normal part of the cell life cycle; it's how other cells get energy during the tough times. But it was thought that the brain was largely resistant to autophagy under these conditions.
At least one part of the brain, however, now appears to self-cannibalize. It's the hypothalamus, which sits right above the brain stem and regulates a variety of functions, including sleep, body temperature, thirst and hunger. The researchers, working with mice, found that neurons in the hypothalamus started eating their own organelles and proteins when the animals were deprived of food. That autophagy then set off a series of steps, which included releasing fatty acids, that resulted in the release of hunger signals, telling the brain that more food was needed.
When the autophagy was blocked by the researchers, though, those hunger signals were blocked. The mice became lighter and leaner after being deprived of food, and they ate less and burned more energy. This insight into metabolism may lead to the development of better treatments for obesity and metabolic syndrome, the scientists write.
In addition, the researchers speculate, the finding may provide clues about why a high-fat diet may make you more hungry—all those fatty acids in the bloodstream may set off that same series of steps that the autophagy of neurons did, making a person more hungry and prompting them to eat even more.

I am very skeptical about this. The hypothalamus is a VERY important part of staying alive…If this is true, then I feel like it would attack and eat a less significant part of the brain…..
I'll never had to go on a diet in my life.
I KNEW there was a reason why I don't DIET!
Everyone knows that dieting isn't good. Eat healthy is the point of any research regarding health and nutrition.

Uh, seriously, a high fat diet does NOT make you more hungry, it makes you LESS hungry. A high SUGAR diet on the other hand makes you more hungry. And yes, i consider french fries and pizza and suchlike a high sugar diet which just happens to also contain a lot of fat.

Dear Diary,
I had to wake up early before everyone else this morning so I can watch Downton Abbey in peace. I tried watching the premiere last night, but Kourtney kept asking why there weren't subtitles since they weren't speaking English.
Khloe and Rob seem to be having a good time in Dallas. Khloe uploaded this picture to her Twitter proclaiming that she and Rob were in Cow Town. The jokes just write themselves, don't they? I think it's very noble that Rob is embracing Texas to the fullest extent possible by rocking the dirty migrant Mexican worker look. When does the deportation process start?
Until next time,
(Source: twitpic.com)

The room was average, but clean. It was difficult to control the temperature. The front desk was okay, but did nothing out of their way to make the stay pleasant. The breakfast was horrible. I would not stay at this LaQuinta again.

This hotel is disgusting. If I could attach pictures I'm positive you would be mortified! The room we are in smells like mold. There are no trash bags in the trash cans. We had to go ask for a fridge & microwave. Seriously???? For $70 they should atleast have the decency to put a trash bag in the trash can. There was dust inside the ice holder. There's dust on the lamp shades. Who knows when's the last time this bathtub was cleaned. I see spiderwebs in the corners. Just sick! I would NOT recommend this hotel to a dog. It's NOT fit! The pictures on the website must've been taken somewhere else. I'm definitely not there.

We are road tripping and decided on this Motel on price and loction. To get things started we were concerned with the area however we felt no threat whatsoever. The staff were very friendly and the room (131) had the back to the I20 so we had no noise. I really cannot abide people who give a bad report due to insects in the room what is that about. Our room was clean tidy and we were rather impressed with the TV and the fact we had a table to sit at . The room was basic as we did not have a microwave or fridge but for one night we were more than happy for what we spent on our stay. Breakfast was basic with no hot food.

Ok I want it undestood first off that in general, I have no issue with La Quinta Inns. I have stayed at other LaQuinta hotels and have generally found them to be a clean and budget friendly place to stay. Until this one. So, I stayed at the La Quinta in Tuscaloosa on Sunday night as I was in town for a business trip. This hotel is not really near the street. It is way off the street hidden behind some sort of semi-truck parking lot. The hotel is set up "motel" style, where all the doors face the street. I don't really love that from a security and safety standpoint, but ok. I drive up to the lobby to check in. The lobby is small, but clean. The front desk attendant checks me in and gives me my room key in an envelope that had been previously been used and still had that number written on it and crossed off. I take my key and drive off to where my room is. Once I got to the room, and used my key to open the door, the problems started. THERE WAS ANOTHER FAMILY ALREADY CHECKED IN TO THAT ROOM. I screamed, they screamed, we were all terrified. I spoke with the husband and cleared the air with him, and then drove BACK to the lobby to get a new room. The attendant fixed it, and I got a new, mercifully empty room. The second room was on the first floor, and there were lots of not so awesome looking people just sort of milling outside the doors to their rooms. I walk in to my "new" room, and the room really was not great. The deadbolt did not work right, which was not comforting given the fact that I had walked in to someone else's room five minutes before. I pushed the reclining chair in front of my door to sleep. The room also had a funny smell, like when your grandmother smokes and tries to cover it up with some sort of perfume. The bed was pretty comfy, but I was not super relaxed due to the issues when I got to the hotel. The water pressure in the shower was good, but the shower head was so low it was short for me and I am only 5'8, The hair dryer broke when I was using it. The hotel does offer free breakfast in the morning, but really I just wanted to get out of there so bad, I did not risk it. As a woman traveling alone, I really did not feel safe here due to the location, the physical set up of the building and the key issue. I will not stay in this hotel again, and I will look more carefully at LaQuintas in the future before booking.

"Avoid the Tuscaloosa La Quinta"
Reviewed Oct 1, 2013
Kenneth S | Washington
We were really unhappy with our stay this past weekend. Following is a list of our complaints and observations: 1. The room (#107) smelled terribly of mold or mildew. We complained about this while we were there and were told they would address it with the maid service. I got the distinct impression that moving rooms was not an option, either another wasn?t available or more likely the condition of that room wouldn?t be any better. The latter is the impression I came away from that conversation with. 2. The second night we were there I woke up and turned on the light in bathroom area and found a cockroach scurrying across the floor. 3. After the first night, late in the afternoon, my wife had to go to the lobby to ask to have the room made up and to get additional towels (The maid had come by early in the day and my wife asked her to come back). 4. After the second night, the maid came by early and knocked on the door while I had the Do Not Disturb sign on the door ? This should never happen 5. When I answered the door the maid asked if we needed any towels. When I said no she asked me to sign her sheet that she had come by. I specifically asked if she was going to come back to make up the room and she definitely responded ?yes.? 6. She never came by and the room never got made up that day. I had to go to the front desk to ask for more towels for showers the next day. 7. Overall condition of the appearance of the hotel is rundown. The carpets are dirty and worn and generally, the entirety appears tired. Given any choice we will never stay at thsi hotel again. Our daughter is a sophomore at the University and we make several trips to visit her a year. Clearly on game weekends they can, and do, get away with charging an outrageous amount of money per night. I don?t begrudge them that opportunity; however, I do find it terribly offensive that they charge the equivalent of 5 star or NY rates and don?t even provide the minimum service.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
As a mother of a 4 year old son who currently attends Go Lightly Early Educational Center in the Pre-K program, I was skeptical of DPS Schools as a option for my only child. This particular Pre-K teacher was recommended to me by a family member who's son attended in previous years. I am so impressed with the way she conducts her classroom, her organizational skills are immpeciable, attitude stellar, and interaction with the children and parents far exceed my expectation. To date, this teacher still checks in on the progress of my cousin's older son and sincerely cares about his development as well as other students. Now that my son is in her class, I do see a difference in my son's language/vocabulary, motor skills, word choices and love for school. He picks up on the teacher's passion and lovable spirit to teach. She stands outside of her room each morning to greet the parents and always interacts with us via in-person and email. She keeps the parents informed by all channels and keeps us in the know about the activities our children are participating in. Keep up the good work Room Pre-K A102 - You so ROCK!
Detroit Public Schools as a whole have gone through a major change. But the staff and parents of Golightly Educational Center are working to maintain the excellence that has come to be expected at Golightly. I can only speak to the elementary school as my children are in the 3rd and 5th grades. This year the school has gotten a new principal and assistant principal. They seem very dedicated and focused on making Golightly a school of excellence both in the elementary and middle school building. This is the trial year for Golightly's middle school and if I don't like what i see, my children will be attending another middle school, and that's the truth.
Golightly was a very good school about 5 years ago but now things have taken a turn for the worst. The teachers dont care, the behavior of some of the students is horrible. This school does not prepare the students for the rral world. I will be taking my child out of Golightly this year. I cant take it any more and you shouldnt either.
I am a parent that has participated with the Golightly Family since my child has started 1st Grade at Golightly. She is now a 7th Grade student at the school. I know the Administration, the teachers, the staff and the students. We have been like a family. I am sorry that some people feel negative towards our school. Maybe if they volunteer around the school with the kids/staff they will get a better impression. The school is still a nice school. You could make it better!!! ~Monica Frazier
I have been attending this school since kindergarten. I will be graduating from Golightly in 2009. I plan on going to Cranbrook. Golightly has really prepared me for everything I shall encounter. I have already passed my test for Cranbrook with flying colors, and I am smart enough to know that Golightly had something to do with this. I feel insulted when I see comments that our students are out of control. Our school was and is a very controlled school. Now, I will say, however, that there has been a slight behavior-related change since we've opened our school to Sherrard and Loving, two schools that closed. If anything, these students are the reason for your opinion. If you still feel that way, feel free to take your child elsewhere. By the way, I will be crying at graduation, I wish I didn't have to leave.
My daughter has attended GEC since 2004. Yes it has changed since last years school closings. GEC is still a very good school. High parent involvemnt. Very impressed with the hands on Dads I see every morning!! I have had one probelm with a teacher who was rude 'everyday' & felt she did not have to speak with you unless she felt like. Other than her, my child love GEC.
GEC has taken a turn for the worse. It was an excellent school, now it is just a neighborhood school. 5-8 has no discipline, teachers don't have control over the students, teachers bickering with the administration, NO and I mean NO parent participation.
I went to Golightly from kindergarten to eight grades. Golightly really prepared me for high school. I found my study habits better than most, my reading, and writing skills were also above average. The many extra-cirricular activities are wonderful. Golightly has been like a family to me and the students who attended Golightly with me are still like a family. Overall Golightly is a great school and I would reccommend it to anyone looking for a great and loving school for their children.
Golightly is a art centered school with both a k-5 building and a 5-8 building. The kindergarten teachers are all great. Music education is available as is some foreign language education for kindergarteners. Various sports are offered for all grades as well as cheerleading. Latchkey is also available for working parents. There is a high level of parent involvement.
Golightly is a great grade school (K-4). My younger son saw the speech therapist and it was a great experience, very professional and caring. She would go out of her way for him and our family. The teachers he had for Kindergarten and 1st grade were exceptional the best of the best. My other son, was in the middle school with no discipline, very little teacher structure and a lack of leadership. Many days were wasted by discussion on behavior and respect for yourself, peers, teachers and administration. The teacher turnover is higher in the middle school and has more impact than in the annex(grade school) building. If I could change my choice I would've enrolled my older son in Bates Academy. Golightly will not have any progress until administration takes a serious stand on discipline and hold the middle school students accountable for their actions.
The elementary level at Golightly (Pre K-4)is exceptional. The curriculum is multi-faceted. The problem is that the level of discipline drops in the middle school, there are too many fights between students. Repeat students who break the DPS Student Code of Conduct are not suspended early enough, so they become disruptive to the learning environment for all the other students. The curriculum is not as challenging as the elementary school. For example, in the 1-4 grades, several science projects and biographies are given as assignments throughout the year. However, by the fifth grade level, there are no special projects for homework on this level. As a parent, I thought that the tremendous practice in writing biographies, and science research in grades 1-4 would be carried over into the fifth grade, but this is not the case. I will say that the level of extracurricular activities remain very high.
My Daughter has been at Golightly since Pre-K and I Love it! The Teachers are very involved with the parents concerns. My daughter is in the second grade and had a problem with reading in the past, but now she is reading at and above her grade level. All school has problems but I can see some improvements at Golightly. I would recommend this school to family and friends.
I love Golightly elementary, I'm not sure about the middle school though. All three of my kids attend Golightly. I am satisfied with K-5th in the annex. These teachers have a handled on what inspires kids. One teacher there especially takes time to take the kids on trips and expose them to things that they would not normally be exposed to. I think my son will be well prepared because of his experience at GEC.
I am an alum of this school and was there from kindergarten through the eighth grade. I am currently an engineering student at the University of Michigan. My younger sister also attended from kindergarten through the eighth grade and is now getting ready to attend her senior year of high school at Cass Tech in Detroit. My little brother is currently attending the school. GEC currently is made up of two parts: the original building (the one both my sister and I atteneded), and the new anex (which my brother has had the opportunity to be educated in). The old building is old, with no AC and radient heat. The new building is for the younger students and does have AC so your kids will not dehydrate. The school is a good school RELATIVE TO OTHER DETROIT PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
The school offers no language or computer classes. The children are not being prepared to compete. Extracurricular activities are unorganized. Those responsible for discipline and maintaining order and safety in the school lack judgement and are at best inappropriate with the students as well as parents seeking to be involved. My children will not attend this school next year.
There are no computer classes for the students at Golightly Ed. which impacts reading and english skills. This impedes the students success! The 10% pay cut the principals had to take last year, has impacted their overall attitude which affects the overall culture of the teaching staff, and the bottom line our precious children. The building is in awful shape and needs to be rennovated it's sad that DPS has spent all of their capital improvement funds on just a few of the 'select' high schools and many of the elementary school such as Golightly are falling apart. There is an overall attitude of Urban teachers which probably has to do with thier teaching environment, they work in schools that are non condusive to teaching, paint peelings, floor bucklings etc. they don't want to be there, it's a job, not a career, plainly reflected in their attitude towards students.
The quality of education at this school is decreasing. Their is no standard of discipline and the children are no being prepared for a global world. There are no language arts or computer/technology classes offered. I am very dissapointed.
Golightly Educational Center is one of the best Pk-8th grade schools in the City of Detroit. Golightly has great parental involvement. The parent orgranization sponsors many extracurricular activites for students. Their is an after school program which also provides tutoring, sports, and other quality enrichment program for their students. The teaching staff appear knowledgeable reguarding learning styles and are open to new and exciting instruction.

I don't find this chassis really ROG.
If the up and down movement of the front panel is your take, get a cosmos II
The greyish back panel puts me off.
You are going to pay a premium just because of the "Asus ROG" label.
I would buy the parts and a better looking chassis. It would look better and you would save.

The Lady Raider weightlifters had high hopes going into the sectional meet on Jan. 25 at Gulf Breeze.
The meet is also called the state qualifier meet because the first three places will go on to the state meet held in Kissimmee later in the month. In the district meet two weeks ago, the Raiders qualified 15 lifters (the maximum number) to compete in the qualifier meet.
Two years ago, the Raiders qualified 14 lifters for the state meet. Last year, 13 Raiders qualified for the state meet where Navarre finished in second place, losing by one point for the third year in a row.

As VP EAB, I am reorganizing the Board to concentrate on key areas. This is producing a more focused board. In addition, EAB is now considering all budget items and voting on priorities. Further, the operationalization of initiatives is being carefully scrutinized. We are also considering a comprehensive set of activities in the university space and carefully considering the exploded competition in continuing education and determining the best path for IEEE.
As President-Elect and President, I led the IEEE initiative to open an office in China and expand our activities in that country as the initial phase of our Asia-Pacific expansion.As chair of N&A, I significantly modified the IEEE N&A process to bring a more structured and, I believe, fairer process to those important activities.
As President, I started the IEEE Board of Directors-based strategic planning activities that were carried to fruition by President Leah Jamieson.As VP-PSPB, I spent significant time on the challenges that arose when our publications and activities were embargoed in certain countries due to United States OFAC regulations and visited Iran to celebrate with our members when we succeeded in having those restrictions relaxed.

10/29/2013 Redbird Softball Clinic Deadline ApproachingHead coach Melinda Fischer and her staff will offer instruction on pitching, catching and hitting, Nov. 17. 09/10/2013 Annual Alumni Game Sets Stage for Fall ScheduleThe Redbirds played in the annual alumni game Sunday, preparing them for an eight-game fall schedule. 04/08/2013 Redbird Softball Welcomes Back AlumniAdmission is free for the entire regular season at Marian Kneer Softball Stadium. 02/22/2013 Redbirds Lose to No. 15 Michigan in Extras, Top HofstraISU opened play at the NFCA Leadoff Classic by splitting against the Wolverines and Pride, staying at .500 in 2013 09/11/2012 Current Redbirds Defeat Program Greats in Annual Alumni GameLindsey Greene and Brittny Drish led the way for the Redbirds with three RBI each After one season of tutoring the Illinois State pitchers as a student assistant coach under the guidance of former pitching coach Bill Kennedy, former All-American Shannon Nicholson recently completed her fifth season as the Redbird softball program's pitching coach. Nicholson is the 16th assistant coach in Illinois State softball history. One of the most prolific pitchers to ever emerge from the Illinois State softball program, Nicholson first joined the ISU coaching ranks during the 2008 season as a student assistant coach, where she assisted Kennedy in all aspects of coaching the Redbird pitchers. Nicholson oversaw the development of Jordan Birch and Megan Warner, with the former being named First Team All-MVC in 2012 and Second Team All-Mideast Region in 2011. Birch went 25-14 with a 1.59 ERA in 2012, setting an ISU single-season record with 37 starts. Birch's 2012 campaign also ranks second all-time in wins (25), shutouts (13), and complete games (29), third for innings pitched (238.1) and fourth for strikeouts (233). Warner also earned two Second Team All-MVC selections under Nicholson's tutelage. Nicholson, who completed her illustrious four-year ISU career with 62 wins following the 2007 season - the fourth-most all-time in school history - graduated in December 2007 and completed her master's degree in kinesiology and recreation with a concentration in sport management. The year 2007 was a banner year for Nicholson, as she became just the second female student-athlete in ISU history to be named the Illinois State Female Student-Athlete and Female Athlete of the Year in the same academic year. She was also selected to the 2007 Easton All-America Second Team - just the second Redbird pitcher all-time to earn Easton Second-Team All-America status. She led the team in earned-run average (1.53) and wins (21), and was picked to the All-MVC First Team for the first time in her career. A consistent performer throughout her Redbird pitching career, Nicholson recorded at least 15 wins in the circle for ISU in each of her sophomore, junior and senior seasons. She ranks fourth all-time for career wins (62), third in opponent batting average (.244), third in career appearances (135) and is tied for fifth in career strikeouts with 362. Nicholson took her collegiate pitching prowess to the sport's highest level, as she began her professional softball career in summer 2008 as a member of the Arkon Racers in the National Pro Fastpitch (NPF) league, joining former ISU teammate Stacy Birk, who was member of the Philadelphia Force. Nicholson was the sixth Redbird softball player all-time to play professionally. Coaching Ledger

"Detroit Matters" - that's the straight forward headline on the cover of the Michigan Municipal League's most recent edition of the Review Magazine. The March/April 2013 magazine, available for free online here, is all about Detroit and why Detroit should matter to the rest of Michigan. The cover story focuses on John George and his Motor City Blight Busters program (pages 24-27).Other highlights in the issue include:
"Our Review magazine often has articles related to Detroit, but this is the first time in recent history where an entire issue was devoted to Detroit," said League CEO Daniel Gilmartin. "Our 2013 Convention is taking place in Detroit in September and we thought now would be a good time to highlight some of the positive people, places and things in our state's largest city. This issue of the magazine gives our members and the general public a glimpse of what they might see if they come to our Convention in September or simply visit Detroit."So why does Detroit Matter? Gilmartin explains it best in his column at the start of the magazine. Here's a segment: "Imagine your body without your heart. Sure, maybe some fancy life support machine could keep your arms, legs and gut technically alive. But you certainly won't grow and thrive. … Detroit is the beating heart that's big enough and strong enough to keep Michigan's lifeblood flowing. A state's major metropolitan area is also its calling card to the rest of the world. It is the magnet that draws people and business, the face of our cultural coin. … Help us make Detroit a place that matters, so that Michigan will matter, too."The League's March/April Review Magazine was mailed out to subscribers this week. The print version of this magazine goes to more than 8,500 municipal leaders – mayors, city council, city managers, municipal staff – as well as state and federal politicians, numerous state agencies, and others interested in community placemaking efforts. The bimonthly magazine also is posted on the web here.Matt Bach is the League's director of media relations. He can be reached at (734) 669-6317 and firstname.lastname@example.com.

Does this pony in a cow costume make you smile? View more photos.
ANN ARBOR, Michigan – Building great communities is more about putting smiles on people's faces than it is fixing potholes. Yes, pothole repair is important, but seeing a child laugh at a pony dressed up as a cow in a downtown parade or eating a formal dinner on a bridge with friends can be ever-lasting memories.This was the message by placemaking expert Peter Kageyama in an education session on citizen engagement Friday, Jan. 18, 2012, at the Michigan Municipal League headquarters in Ann Arbor. Kageyama spoke to about 20 southeast Michigan community leaders as part of a series of training weeks being offered by the League. He explained that the key to creating vibrant communities is finding what people love about their city and town and then building upon that.He gave examples of a farming community that has a parade of cows and a river-community that turns a pedestrian foot-bridge into an elegant dinner to raise funds for the local chamber of commerce. The training week concept is a new service the League is providing to bring our vast array of education offerings to various parts of the state. League members and non-members can register for a whole week of trainings or pick and choose the topics that interest them. The first training week was this week and the next training week is Feb. 14-15 in Frankenmuth. Go here for details.All the education sessions are excellent, but hearing Kageyama, of Florida, is a special treat in such a small setting. He often speaks around the world to large groups. If you missed him Friday he's speaking again during training weeks in Kalamazoo, March 13-15; Lansing, April 24-26; and Mackinaw City, May 15-17; and Muskegon, June 5-7. Other topics planned at the training week sessions include the Open Meetings Act (OMA) and Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) parliamentary procedure, municipal finance, service consolidation and shared services, and engaging your citizen change makers. You can register for the sesions here.View additional photos from the training week in Ann Arbor here and here.Matt Bach is the League's director of media relations.

Aquitaine - Chicago
Online Reservations
Great food and they got us out quickly so we could make a show...
I almost hate to recommend this place in case it becomes too popular & I start having difficulty getting in. The food was fixed to perfection, the service courteous and helpful, and the prices extremely moderate (Brunch). Highly recommend it.
The food was outstanding: I had fish papillote and my wife had salmon: we shared a beet salad. The cocktail was delightful, a refreshing gin and freshly squeezed grapefruit base. There's a great selection of french wines by the glass. The service was wonderful, and the ambience was intimate and elegant. This is a great, tasty, relaxing dinner in Lincoln Park, where there aren't many restaurants that fulfill all the criteria. It was quiet on a Monday night. The manager told us that Fridays, Saturdays, and Apollo nights are busy. It's a small place, and Sherry said that she wished people would make reservations on busier nights so that they could bring in wait staff to accommodate unexpected business.
Great interior setting, excellent food at reasonable prices.
We looked on-line, booked and were so pleasantly surpirsed at this lovely little restaurant. The food was very good. The chicken and kale soup outstanding. The wine recommendation for both red and white was spot on. The seafood dishes were scrumptious! I have already recommended the restaurant to friends.
Our wait person was overworked but never showed it. She was warm, friendly, and energetic. The food was very good. We had a great Mother's Day.
We have been enjoying this place since it opened, were disappointed when it closed for lunch a while ago. Happy to find it open for brunch on Mother's Day. Had great smoked salmon appetizer, fantastic roast beef for the middle and a chocolate thing for dessert. And wonderful coffee for only $2. Starbucks, put that in your cup...
A French themed restaurant with pleasant decor and a pod menu. Our server was friendly and very knowledgable. The food was extremely good. Only slight criticism was that we did wait a while for the food. Would definitely return
I found Aquitaine when I was walking home from the grocery store and I'm happy I did. It is very small, unpretentious, and fun. The food was great, but I am a vegetarian and there was only one choice on the menu for me. My dinner companions, however, had many wonderful choices and the chef was nicely accommodating to my one, gluten-free, dairy-free friend. I am looking forward to a return visit, but will wait until they change their menu so I can try another of their vegetarian dishes. Loved the wine and the desserts were delicious!!!
Here is a Lincoln Park gem. Great in the summer, when they open the glass window doors on to the street! There was a very small staff when I went there with my date but the personality of the hostess-bartender-server was top notch! We tried the oyster appetizer special and it proved to be delicious. Her flounder special was cooked to perfection while my mahi mahi in parchment paper proved flavorful and succulent. The wine list is short but covers a wide range of options. Expect an older (40+ crowd) and it's good for groups. Louder as the night went on. Grab a drink at the bar before seating.
The four of us had a nice dinner here before seeing a play with Remy Bumppo, Aquitaine was very helpful in quickly serving us so we could make the curtain call on time.
We always come here before seeing a play at Remy Bumppo and it is always very good. The food is fresh and well prepared, the service is friendly and attentive, you can find a good wine in any price range, and the ambience is relaxing and intimate. We love it!
We had dinner there after attending a play at the Apollo theater. The service was great ! Very accommodating, we brought our 9 year old son and we enjoy his dinner as much as his parents did. Good food selection and wine list.
Food was delicious - ample portions - gracious service very accommodating.
I took my parents here for an early dinner on Sunday night and we loved our meals. I started with the prosecco cocktail (had some fig pepper liqueur mixed in which was really unique and delicious). For an appetizer, I got the scallops, which were really perfectly cooked and on a bed of peppery couscous with some grilled fennel. The flavors all came together beautifully. I then ordered the fish en papillote. The fish was mahi mahi and it was served in a parchment paper wrap with carrots and leeks. Very light but very tasty. My parents also had fish dishes: the ratatouille and the salmon with mushrooms. All in all it was a delightful meal and I'd love to go back!
This is the second time we have been here and had another great experience with friends. Everyones food was delicious. The only thing we disagreed on was who's entree was the best!
Felt like we were in Paris. The food was delicious. Loved the seafood linguine and the pork shoulder. Our server was helpful. The desserts were yummy. And we got a complimentary birthday dessert. Would definitely go back for a romantic date.
From our salad to our dessert, every course was superb. The beet salad and pear salad were delicious. I had the special sea bass entree and it was among the best I have had, the brined, farm poussin was just as tasty, as was the rabbit ravioli. But the real surprise was how reasonably priced the restaurant is for the high quality of both the ingredients and the food. It is creative French with global influences at its best! And our server was friendly, professional and fun! It was our first time but we will go back!
Went here after attending a play at Steppenwolf. It was a late reservation (10pm) so not sure if it just gets quiet at that time of night on Saturday but there were only a few other couples there. We ordered 2 appetizers (Duck Confit mac & cheese and lobster gnocchi). We also had an arugula salad. For our entrees my husband got the special which was short ribs with polenta and I had the rabbit ravioli. We finished with strawberry mint sorbet and vanilla bean creme brulee (don't judge us...we were hungry and everything was soooo good). Overall I gained about 5 pounds but it was worth it. It is a small restaurant with a bar and the decor is pretty and very romantic. I would definitely go back again and would highly recommend to friends.
Every course was perfect. The service and atmosphere made our evening a special one. This was our first visit, but we will become regulars.
Highly recommend the duck mac and cheese. Pear salad was fine. Smoked cream of mushroom soup also very good, as were the short ribs and salmon entrees. Interesting selection of specialty cocktails; our server was very helpful in selecting one (although they all looked mostly to be on the sweeter side). Our servers were very helpful and pleasant. We will definitely be back, even though it's not in our neighborhood. Street parking not as difficult to find as feared.
We used a gift certificate and were not disappointed. Great service & food! Quiet on a Saturday eve at 5. Try the duck crepe!
Didn't expect a lot from this place but the food was outstanding. Recommend Fennel infused scallop with risottto, roasted beet or wild arugula salad (both excellent), french onion soup and pork shoulder or papillote. WIne list is moderately priced, a bit thin but almost everything comes by the glass and they'll bring you samples first so you can find a wine you like. Overall a wonderful find in Lincoln Park.
We had tickets for Appolo theater. We parked at the theater and easily walked to/ from Aquitaine. The restaurant was pretty empty so we had great service. We enjoyed everything we ordered, mussels, salads, onion soup and fish entrees. The wine list is small but adequate. We felt the prices were reasonable. Would definitely dine here again.
Welcoming and helpful staff. Varied menu. Food needed a lite salt and pepper and could have been hotter
This was a very cute restaurant. Small menu but all very tasty. Cozy spot, not too busy.
We sat by the front windows of the restaurant which open to give a nice semi-al fresco dining experience. The meal was great and service was great, but the Ford Expedition that was parked directly outside from us had its car alarm going off every two minutes for close to thirty minutes sort of killed the overall night. Not the restaurant's fault, but they eventually had to close the window/doors to cut down on the noise since in checking they couldn't find the owner to the car anywhere in the immediate area. Otherwise, food/service was fantastic! I'd go again, providing there are no white Ford Expeditions in the area...
The food was good, the service very attentive and friendly I. If you're seeing a show at the Greenhouse Theatre this is right down the block, so very convenient. Worth checking out.
Tried this restaurant for the first time. One word. AWESOME!!!!!! Their gnocchi is out of this word. So is the filet,and potato leek soup. A real treat. Kudos to the chef.
Aquitaine is a very small neighborhood restaurant, and the personnel wear several hats. The wait staff was welcoming and cheerful, and very apologetic when we had to wait 15 minutes at the bar for our table to open up. When ordering, the server was clear how long our entree selections would take in the kitchen, and they were worth waiting for. We went after an early performance at Victory Gardens Theater, 3 blocks away, and enjoyed a relaxed dining experience.
The restaurant was very nice. Our waitress was very helpful and the food was very delicious!!!!!
heavy traffic caused us to be30 minutes late for our reservation for six. We now only had an hour or so before we had to leave for the Apollo Theater! No problem! We had a wonderful meal from the standard menu. Wait staff was super. Always friendly and helpful. HIGHLY recommend the Aquitaine for before or after a show at the Apollo or just for an very enjoyable meal in a warm and friendly environment.
Every dish was deliciously flavorfull - had all the right flavors!! I especially loved the duck, although the salmon was also very good!!
A few blocks from the Victory Gardens Theater is Aquitaine, a neighborhood gem. The ambiance is quiet and elegant and the food fantastic. There were 4 of us and we all had a different mean, enjoying our food along with the ability to talk.
Great food, interesting menu, well-sized portions, friendly and knowledgeable staff, pleasant atmosphere, nice wine list (including several selections under and around $30), great cocktails. I've had meals at twice the price that weren't nearly as good. It's not budget dining, but it is definitely one of the better values in town! I love this place.
Glad we gave this place a try! The food was delicious, and the interior is really beautiful.
Aquitaine made us feel back in Paris! Cozy atmosphere, table next to the sidewalk and great person service. The fish En Papillote was a truly french classic as was the pan seared trout. My highlitght however were the mussels! This hearthy appetizer is enough for two and not to be missed. I have to go back to try their rabbit and duck dishes. The amber came for dessert was finished with a well made expresso. A must find in Chicago
Ambiance, service, food - all fantastic - freshly made, high quality, interesting. LOVE IT!
Definitely want to go back. Comfortable. Sophisticated. Great food - salmon outstanding. ambiance great, nice dinner music, could hear others speak, really glad we found it!
A small intimate setting ideal for friends and conversation. The potato leek soup was delicious; the lake trout in a cream sauce over mashed potatoes and sauteed spinach was a perfect combination. I loved the pumpkin souffle was divine.
Great quaint french restaurant. Food was excellent with very good attentive service. Small space but great for a couples night out. The food was all fresh and cooked to order. Would highly recommend.
A lovely little gem of a restaurant on a crowded strip of bars on Lincoln Ave. The menu has something for everyone from the more conservative to more adventuresome eaters. We started with the arugula salad - with pickled asparagus - very interesting and yum. Then on to pork chop with brussel sprouts and sweet potato wedges. It was just delicious and the portions are really ample. My friend had the salmon - with kale and she loved it. The room is really pretty - when we walked in my friend said "wow - I feel like i'm in NY - which was a good thing:) Looking forward to going back soon!!
My friend and I like Aquitaine before Remy Bumppo performances and are never disappointed. Food and service are excellent, the restaurant is cozy and comfortable. An enjoyable experience every time.
While several of our plates were quite good, others were less so. Our service was great and I liked the ambiance.
My mom, sisters & I had a really nice dinner at Aquitaine. Service was warm and friendly. We went early before seeing a show at the Apollo Theatre. Wine list was small but thoughtful with good choices and reasonable prices. My mom's seafood pasta was really good and flavorful. My sister's Idaho trout was also really good but my other sister and I had the short ribs and they fell short - not very flavorful and the polenta was a little on the soupy side. But in general, it was a very nice place and eating experience.
I'd give 4-½ starts if it was an option. Delicious food; servings a bit too large (worth the doggie bag). Excellent braised pork shoulder. The waitress suggested a substitution, realizing I liked the side of a different entrée,… Disappointing they were out of foie gras but said nothing until after we ordered it (we were among the very first diners, so it didn't just happen). Service - prompt & friendly but not "in our face." Intimate setting, but bustling as we left. Unique menu -- not unusual, but certainly original. Great "bistro" fare. Mac & cheese w/duck confit starter was wonderful -- but enough to be a meal. We will return the next time we are headed to Victory Gardens Theater. Great start to the evening!
Brought a couple of friends here for dinner and we all enjoyed ourselves! Great service; intimate setting; too much of a hidden gem that we want to spread the word about.
From the moment we entered the elegantly cozy dining room, we were smitten. The cocktail offerings, the menu, the soundtrack, the service staff - all were intoxicating. The Blackberry Sage fizz is my new favorite beverage. Each course, beautifully presented, required intense focus - the flavors were not 'run of the mill, I've had this before' experiences. Mussels with saffron, arugula salad with pickled asparagus, salmon with just the slightest hint of sweet - spectacular all! The staff made every effort to ensure we dined comfortably and still made a 7:30 curtain. I wish this place were within walking distance of my house. Can't wait to go back!
Aquitaine occupies a small but cozy space. I loved the low lighting and decor, which created a very romantic ambiance, perfect for an intimate meal. I ate here for my Thanksgiving dinner, so my meal wasn't off their regular menu. However, I absolutely loved their pumpkin tortellini as well as the pumpkin creme brulee. I wasn't crazy about the actual turkey - traditional but a little bland. Cocktails could use some improvement - nothing wowed me there. Staff was definitely very friendly. I would go again with a date if I happened to be in the neighborhood. The menu, including drinks, is also affordable.
Thanksgiving dinner couldn't have been better! We'll be back.
