"World's Most Wanted" picks up the story of Iron Man following the conclusion of "Secret Invasion." That said, the story retraces some of the events that led to this point, but for readers who pick this up expecting a gateway into the world of Iron Man, access is a little more restricted.
Fraction is firing on all cylinders, guiding Tony Stark and his iron-plated alter ego into a strange new "Jerry Maguire"-esque existence. This issue gives Tony a release from the pressures and complications set upon his shoulders during "Civil War" and offers a reset button for his karma. Fraction provides a very entertaining Stark, and allows us to read what's going on in Tony's mind in this story.
Additionally, Tony Stark has made a new enemy, one that carries a grudge until he has an opportunity to bludgeon his foe with it –- Norman Osborn. Swiping Stark's place as the governmental superhuman liaison, Osborn wastes no time trying to access the Superhuman Registration Database and the secrets awaiting therein.
In his attempt to access those files, Osborn is shown to still harbor some madness and an almost terrifying singularity of purpose. No doubt, following Stark's triggered safety, Iron Man will be the target of Osborn's vim and vinegar for some time to come.
Larocca and D'Armata are nigh inseparable regarding the art in this issue. It truly is difficult to tell where Larocca's rendering stops and D'Armata begins, as the two work seamlessly together. This book is visually stunning, but it also has the ability to render real world in a manner that is almost tangible.
Undoubtedly, this story is going to gain steam as it heads into the next issue and beyond. Marvel's propensity for "tradeworthy" story arcs provides Fraction with an exact set of parameters for his pacing. The final, entire story of "World's Most Wanted" is sure to be a nice hardcover collection. But why wait? The action is here right now and Iron Man is perched on the precipice of becoming an honorable hero once more.

Disposable Hotel Bath Mats
Provide Overnight Guests with a Fresh and Clean Bathroom by Setting Out Disposable Hotel Bath Mats
Place these disposable hotel bath mats on the floor outside of the bathtub or shower. You can also place them on the floor in front of the bathroom sink. A bath mat is ideal for use in hotels, motels, spas, and other overnight facilities because it shows guests that the bathroom has been cleaned and sanitized. Each disposable mat features a crisp white color that will complement the decor of almost any hotel restroom. Read more
Supply your cleaning staff with these disposable hotel bath mats to place in freshly cleaned bathrooms before new guests arrive. They're lightweight and constructed of paper so they don't take up a lot of space on janitorial carts. Their absorbent paper construction also shows when water has spilled out of the tub, warning guests that the floor may be slippery. And, since they're disposable, guests can simply throw them away after they've been used.

Italian judges on Monday accepted a request to postpone a hearing in Silvio Berlusconi's sex trial on the grounds that the former premier was due to attend an election campaign television interview which prevented him from being in court.
The decision marks a minor victory for the media magnate, whose defence team has been fighting hard to get the trial starring an exotic dancer nicknamed "Ruby the Heart Stealer" totally suspended until after the February 24-25 poll.
Berlusconi said the interview with LA7 television could not be postponed and it had been the show's producers who had decided on the schedule.
The next hearing will take place on February 11, the judges said. A verdict is not expected until after the election.
Berlusconi, who is accused of paying for sex with Moroccan-born Karima El-Mahroug in 2010 when she was just 17, has been gaining ground in the election race largely due to a heavy mediatic campaign and is keen to keep stories of his wild dinner parties out of the newspapers.
While the billionaire has launched his sixth election bid in two decades, he is still mulling whether to run for the post of prime minister or settle for another post within his centre-right People of Freedom (PDL) party.
Berlusconi faces up to three years in prison on the sex charge and is also accused of abusing his official powers by pressuring police to release El-Mahroug when she was arrested -- a charge that carries a maximum prison sentence of 12 years.
His critics have said the 76-year-old billionaire is only running for office to stay out of jail.

carolintallahasseeTallahasseeAge: 45-54Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5POST MODERNISM, HOW IT EFFECTS THE CHURCH TODAY!May 4, 2012carolintallahasseeTallahasseeAge: 45-54Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5This book gives a great view of what is wrong in churches today, and how it started. When JESUS told HIS disciples the signs that would precede HIS Return, HE told them there would be a falling away from the church, and people in the congregation would want to have their 'ears tickled,' as with 'fables,' and they would not endure sound doctrine, and Preachers would give them what they want. We are living in that age, this book is a scholastic look at what is at the heart of the issue, and explains exactly how JESUS'S words are being fulfilled right now. Great Book!
Dawson Brooks5 Stars Out Of 5April 30, 2010Dawson BrooksWhile staying at a friend's place, I devoured John MacArthur's book, Ashamed of the Gospel. The message of the book (When the Church becomes like the world) is so relevant, not only to the Church in general, but also in my own personal life too. Its not just a timely message for other people. I ordered my own copy as a resource and a reread.The dangers or pitfalls of sliding into subtle lies and compromise are all around us. Our only hope to persevere in times like these is to reamin steadfast upon the Rock, even Jesus Christ the Lord and upon the uncompromising truth of the Word of God. I highly recommend this book for pastors and leaders too. It is a message for such a time as this.

According to Williams, care workers can experience trauma-like symptoms, even if they weren't present for the initial trauma.
"Care workers sometimes experience their own personal trauma," Williams said. "They take on a lot of trauma from walking with other people. In studies it's almost as if they experience trauma that didn't happen to them."
Practices such as journaling that help to process and let go of that absorbed trauma are also crucial. For Elliot, the practice was meditation.
"Meditation helped me a lot in the presence of difficult, unpleasant emotions, to let them come and go again. I could see how when I was swinging between turning away from it or trying to put a boundary or barrier up, I got pulled into it, I was holding it, it was sticking with me. What the yoga practice and the meditation practice helped me find was to allow myself to be open, to feel it, but to keep moving, because it wasn't mine to hold."
"She's cracking up."
Self-care and burnout are considerations organizations need to take into account as well — especially those struggling with volunteer or worker retention.
"We need to take good care of ourselves, but in order to do that, there needs to be kind of organizational, cultural support for that," Elliot said. "Even when organizations put things in place, like a staff psychologist, it's very rare for people to use those because the culture as I experience it suggests that if you can't cope there's something wrong with you, that you should be able to cope."
Elliot shared a story from her Afghanistan experience in which workplace culture let her down.
Working as the sole international staff member in a remote office and living alone, she was a two-day-drive from the nearest office. One night, as she stayed in the compound alone, there was an attack. Large, rocket-propelled grenades were fired at the compound.
"They didn't land in the compound, but they were very close, very frightening," said Elliot.
Elliot spent a rough night in the bunker, and the next day, for the first time in her Afghanistan experience, she didn't go into the office.
"I just said, 'I'm at the end of my wits, I need a day in bed.'"
Later Elliot heard another co-worker saying that Elliot was not coping, that she was "cracking up."
"I felt so ashamed," said Elliot. "I look back now and I think, how dare they. (I had) no one to talk to, been through this very frightening grenade attack, no one calls me ... instead they gossip about me."
The culture of "if you can't cope, you're not cut out for it" needs to change, according to Williams. She said humanitarians need to pace themselves and organizations need to give them room to do so.
"If you feel like you want to be involved when you're 80, you have the time to go slow and nurture relationships slowly," said Williams. "There are so many things in our life that cause us to experience grieving (We need) to give people and their minds, bodies, spirits, emotions the space to run that course rather than just trying to be normal or better or fine."
A study published by PLoS One found that one factor that eased burnout among relief workers included more autonomy and control over their jobs. Those with strong support networks also reported less depression, anxiety and burnout.
Sara Bowers Posada worked in Afghanistan with Catholic Relief Services. She said she saw burnout in herself and in her colleagues.
"It definitely took a toll," Posada said. "We didn't have a way to support each other because we didn't have a name for what was going on."

The Texas State Bobcats and the UTSA Roadrunners have scheduled an eight-game football series, both schools announced today.
The I-35 rivals kick off their series at Bobcat Stadium in San Marcos on Sept. 23, 2017. Texas State will later host UTSA three more times on Sept. 12, 2020, Sept. 10, 2022, and Sept. 7, 2024.
UTSA will also host four games of the series at the Alamodome. The first meeting in San Antonio is scheduled for Sept. 22, 2018 and the other three games are slated for Sept. 11, 2021, Sept. 9, 2023, and Sept. 6, 2025.
"We are excited that we will be playing a long-term series with Texas State," UTSA head coach Larry Coker said. "Although we have played just one time in our first three years, we think this could build into a rivalry like it has in our other sports. I'm sure our fans are looking forward to the eight games just as much as we are."
Texas State and UTSA have previously met only one time on the gridiron. Back in 2012, the Roadrunners defeated the Bobcats 38-31 in San Antonio.
"I am excited that the I-35 rivalry we started many years ago in all of our sports will have eight years on the football field," said Texas State athletic director Larry Teis. "Our first game at UTSA drew nearly 40,000 fans in 2012 and both schools realize the importance and benefits of playing one another. We want to thank Lynn Hickey and her staff for working with us to begin a long-term series with UTSA."
"With the proximity and similarities that we have, this could develop into a special college football rivalry," added Texas State head coach Dennis Franchione. "It will be a great game for the fans of both schools to watch."
UTSA also announced today that two future football games in 2017 and 2018 against Colorado State have been cancelled. Those games were replaced by contests vs. Texas State.
Football Schedules
OT: When will it be decided when Colorado State plays Alabama? In 2015? Or 2017?
UTSA what a joke. Will always remain 3rd week. Will never forget my sr yr of highschool and seeing their acceptance rate at 97%
Utsa acceptance rate is now smaller than texas states and utsa was made in the 1970s lol
When is UTSA going to schedule S. Dakota? That match-up HAS to happen! I'm sure the Cartoon Network will show it.
don't laugh clone—utsa beat Houston last year in a huge upset.It will take a little time to beat some big name schools.

HOUSTON (AP) - The main sponsor of a bill intended to enhance security at U.S. harbors toured the nation's second-largest port Friday, shortly before the last of three Gulf Coast hearings on the issue.
U.S. Sen. John Breaux, D-La., joined Republican colleague Kay Bailey Hutchinson of Texas, for a tour of the Port of Houston aboard the M/V Sam Houston. The lawmakers are gathering information on possible changes in security devices, law enforcement and customs inspections in light of the Sept. 11 attacks.
Breaux wants the government to oversee security at the nation's seaports, which he says remain vulnerable.
His bill, which has been endorsed by the White House, would set national standards for security, mandating all seaports develop comprehensive plans with coordinated oversight.

To the editor:
I am impressed by the experiments with the traffic lights in our city. I would agree to removing the traffic lights on Sixth Street and Delaware, and I would experiment with Sixth Street and Cherokee.
These two traffic controls seem to cause an unnecessary slowdown on both streets. Keep up the good work.

Presentation at the 2016 National Art Education Association Convention in Chicago on March 18
Alexa Milroy, Director of Program and Administration at AEMS, attended the National Art Education Association Convention in Chicago on March 16-19, 2016. Alexa presented a session with Kenneth Skrzesz, Fine Arts Coordinator at the Maryland State Department of Education, Lisa Stuart, Visual Arts Supervisor at Prince George's County Public Schools, and Eleni Dykstra, Visual Arts Coordinator at Anne Arundel County Public Schools. The session focused on the work being done in Maryland that stemmed from the Governor's P-20 Leadership Council Task Force on Arts Education in Maryland Schools. One example shared at the session was a memo Dr. Kevin Maxwell, CEO of Prince George's County Public Schools, sent out to all his principals about art expectations as part of the district's strategic plan. A copy of that memo can be found here. A copy of the PowerPoint presentation can be found here.

Afternoon sessions for arts educators offer additional studio time, collaborative working sessions, and unit planning while arts integration teachers focus on pedagogy, inquiry-based learning practices, arts assessments and unit planning. Each summer day concludes with a student-centered performance. During the academic year, along with quarterly master classes for participants, MATI also offers ongoing professional development through contributions to statewide fine arts briefings and student work exhibitions, sponsoring national professional development opportunities for MSDE fine arts staff members, assisting in the development and maintenance of state fine arts standards, and raising the awareness of Maryland fine arts education through digital design and marketing.

Every Student Succeeds Act - Implications for Arts Education
On December 10, 2015 President Barack Obama signed S.1177, Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 to reauthorize the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA). Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) is a bipartisan bill which supports the principle of educating the "whole child." While the new act shrinks the federal role in education reform and hands more decision-making to the states, arts education advocacy at the state and local level will be more critical than ever. Important to note is that arts and music are included in a definition of a "well-rounded education" - a term that has replaced the current definition of "core academic subjects," which had included the "arts." The language also allows for the addition of dance, theatre and digital media to be included under the term "any other subject" that provides students with an enriched educational experience.

Three Maryland Principals Named Outstanding Leaders in Arts Education
Arts Education in Maryland Schools (AEMS) Alliance announced the 2015 Alvin and Louise Myerberg Arts Leadership Recognition Awards on October 28, 2015 at a breakfast and forum held at The Baltimore Museum of Art. The winning principals were Judy Brubaker, principal of Spark Matsunaga Elementary School in Montgomery County, Paul DeRoo, principal of Wiley H. Bates Middle School in Anne Arundel County, and Patricia Hosfelt, principal of Spring Ridge Elementary School in Frederick County.
AEMS honored twelve outstanding principals from schools in eight counties around the state. All of the nominees received Certificates of Acknowledgement for establishing arts-rich environments in their schools. The three winners received a trophy and a monetary gift to support their arts programs. School system leaders and teachers attended the event to show support for their principals. Lyn Frankel, Chair of the AEMS Board of Trustees, Lori Snyder, Executive Director of AEMS, and Ken Skrzesz, Coordinator of Fine Arts at the Maryland State Department of Education, gave remarks and congratulated all of the principals. Ken also led a group discussion on best practices in arts leadership. The Baltimore Museum of Art's education staff presented information on the new Patricia and Mark Joseph Education Center and attendees got to explore the space.

Lori Snyder Named New Executive Director at AEMS
Dear AEMS Colleagues, Partners, Supporters, and Friends:
On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I am pleased to announce the appointment of AEMS' new Executive Director, Ms. Lori Snyder. Recognized with national and local awards, including the Maryland Art Educator of the Year in 2011 by the National Art Education Association, Lori was instrumental in the development and implementation of the Performing & Visual Arts Magnet Programs in Anne Arundel County Public Schools. She most recently served as Senior Manager of the PVA Magnet Programs.
Lori Snyder has been a key partner with AEMS for many years. In her words, "I am thrilled to serve as the new Executive Director and look forward to continuing the great work of AEMS supporting arts educators, artists, school administrators, and organizations as we advocate for high quality arts education for all students in the state of Maryland!"
During the past three years, AEMS has spearheaded work to establish a statewide approach to increasing students' access to quality arts education. Through the Governor's P-20 Leadership Council Task Force on Arts Education in Maryland Schools, which AEMS co-chaired, staffed, and published the final report, the entire state now has a guide for coherent and consistent action to bring equity, quality, and access in arts education to all Maryland students. With Lori Snyder's leadership, AEMS will continue the momentum around implementation of the 10 recommendations in the task force report.
Lori will begin at AEMS on November 2nd.
Lyn Frankel, Chair
Lori Snyder's Bio
Lori received her Bachelor of Arts Degree from the University of Maryland, followed by furthering her graduate studies at Loyola University. Lori began her career in 1982 as an Elementary School Art Teacher; where she clearly distinguished herself as a maverick in the Arts Integration field long before it was in vogue. As Lori's career evolved, she became immersed in the Gifted and Talented Programs for Students, identifying opportunities for elementary and secondary students in art, music, drama, and dance. Perhaps her most pivotal role was when Lori collaborated with colleagues at Anne Arundel County Public Schools (AACPS) to write a grant for nearly $700,000 in funding from the U.S. Department of Education to increase Mathematics achievement at the Wiley H. Bates Performing and Visual Arts Middle School. She co-authored the article "Transforming Teaching through Arts Integration" that was published in the Journal for Learning through the Arts in January of 2014 that highlights the model and findings from the grant. Largely due to Lori's leadership, Bates Middle School has been recognized by the College Board and the George Lucas Educational Foundation for its excellence in teaching all children with and through the arts and was received an award for Arts Integration from the Arts Schools Network.
Simultaneously, Lori worked with arts partners, leaders in AACPS, representatives from higher education and arts partners across the state to develop and implement AACPS' first Performing & Visual Arts Magnet Programs. During her tenure as Senior Manager of the Performing & Visual Arts Magnet Programs, the magnificent arts addition was added to the Annapolis High School building and she facilitated the transformation of a former school in Annapolis into Studio 39, the creative studios and performance space for AACPS' Performing and Visual Arts Magnet Programs.
Due to Lori's leadership, advocacy, and dedication, she has raised the bar in Anne Arundel County Public Schools for integration of arts across the curriculum, elevating the school system as a role model regionally and nationally for the PVA model that she helped to develop. In conjunction with these accomplishments, Lori was recognized in 2011 as the Maryland Art Educator of the Year by the National Art Education Association and was chosen by the Anne Arundel County Arts Council as the 2014 Arts Educator Annie Award Winner. Lori's influence has been instrumental in the lives of many and has highlighted the talents of students as well as her colleagues.
Farewell and Thank You From Mary Cary
Dear Friends and Colleagues:
I have recently made the decision to leave AEMS and try retirement. Retirement is scary, so I am thinking of this as an attempt to slow down and catch up on some missed fun. My final day at AEMS is Thursday, September 24.
Attached is the announcement for my position, Executive Director of AEMS. As you know, AEMS is a robust organization with both policy and program agendas. I hope you will think about who would be the best person to continue our important work in this present environment of increased attention to the arts.
I have loved joining you in a collective advocacy for the arts for all children in our state. Thank you, each one of you, for being a supporter of the AEMS mission. I will miss you, but in my own way, I will continue to advocate for arts education, artists, arts organizations, and all who teach our young people.
Mary Cary
Cultural Arts for Education (CAFE) - May 28, 2015
CAFE 2015 was a terrific success. The three remarkable thinkers, Dr. Solomon Snyder, Dr. Martha Bridge Denckla, and Ms. Susan Magsamen, filled the opening session with thought-provoking ideas on interconnections between and among aspects of brain research, the arts, and the sciences. The breakout session presenters were excellent, and the student performances reminded us all why we care about access to the arts for all Maryland students. AEMS thanks all of the participants and the presenters for a learning, networking, and fun day.
Honoring the memory of Jay Tucker, retired Coordinator of Fine Arts at the Maryland State Department of Education, who passed away in January, the annual AEMS award was renamed The Jay Tucker Award for Outstanding Leadership in Arts Education in Maryland. As part of the award presentation, remarks were given in memory of his work. During the morning session, the 2015 award went to Dr. Nancy S. Grasmick, former Maryland State Superintendent and current Presidential Scholar at Towson University.

Governor Martin O'Malley's P-20 Leadership Council Unanimously Approves Task Force Report on Arts Education
Tuesday, September 16, Governor O'Malley's Leadership Council voted unanimously to accept the recommendations from his task force on arts education. These ten recommendations are based on the principles of equity and quality of arts education. The Governor, winner of both state and national awards in leadership in the arts, has expressed his strong support of students having access to the arts in their PK-12 education by stating, "The arts give our children the skills and diverse knowledge they need to become the leaders and innovators of tomorrow."
The recommendations are on policy, curriculum and instruction, resource allocation, and professional development. Mary Ann Mears, co chair of the task force and founder of Arts Education in Maryland Schools (AEMS), stated in her remarks to the council that the arts "connect our whole being because they speak to our emotions, our reasoning, and our creativity." Her co chair, Dr. Jack Smith, Chief Academic Officer at MSDE, stated that "students need a complete education." All council members expressed their support by voting yes; there were no abstentions.

STEM + Art: A Brilliant Combination by John Ceschini
John Ceschini, former AEMS Executive Director, wrote STEM + Art: A Brilliant Combination which was published in the December 3rd Edition of Education Week. His article investigates the power of integrating the arts into other subject areas, especially STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) subjects. As an educational leader, John is able to see firsthand the value of arts-integrated learning..

Introducing the New National Core Arts Standards
On Wednesday, June 4, 2014, the National Coalition for Core Arts Standards (NCCAS) launched the new National Core Art Standards and interactive website. The new preK-12 standards for dance, media arts, music, theatre, and visual arts are now available. The standards were written by and for arts educators to support quality teaching and learning. They were shaped with the input of more than 6,000 educators, teaching artists, parents, students, and focus groups. The standards integrate the four artistic processes — creating, performing, responding, and connecting — with the skills and knowledge, sample assessments, and criteria necessary for successful arts learning. The new, interactive NCAS website can be found here.
Governor Martin O'Malley's P-20 Leadership Council Creates a Task Force on Arts Education in Maryland
On Monday, September 16, 2013, Governor Martin O'Malley's P-20 Leadership Council voted unanimously to have a statewide task force on arts education in Maryland schools. Dr. William E. (Brit) Kirwan, Chancellor of the University System of Maryland, made the initial motion to endorse and commented on the power of the arts in his life and the importance of the arts for all students. Co chairing the task force will be nationally known sculptor and founder of Arts Education in Maryland Schools (AEMS) Alliance, Mary Ann Mears, and Dr. Jack Smith, Deputy Superintendent at the Maryland State Department of Education. Governor O'Malley's commitment to arts education is longstanding, and he has been recognized nationally with the prestigious Public Leadership in Arts Award. To continue Maryland's standing as a national leader in education, the Governor wants to ensure that all students have access to a quality education which includes the arts. Council members commented on the critical importance of creativity and innovation in the workforce and the need for students to have a creative edge in order to be globally competitive. The P-20 Task Force on Arts Education will present the final report to the Governor and the Council in September 2014.

text: What if a game was developed to be two-fold, similar to what blue_light said but instead it would be split up entirely. The actions in one game would affect actions in the other and likewise. Each "mentor" would be paired up with an apprentice. The beginner half of the game would be a simple 2v1 with basic roles. These roles, however directly influence what happens in the Expert game. Like, for example, in the expert half of the game, a win condition could look something like this: "You are allied with <Faction>. You win if <whatever>. Alternatively (or whatever) you win if your apprentice <kills, steals from, etc.> <USER or Role>." Or something where if a wolf is killed in the other game you win. Likewise, in the beginner game, if a beginner is able to pair another USER with that USER's mentor, they could potentially help their own mentor. Essentially: Two games in one. Of course that's just another idea.

Osama Once Visited America
If only he'd seen Disney World instead of Indiana.
It's been reported before, but now the story of Osama bin Laden's 1979 visit to America has been confirmed in a new book by his first wife. Personally, there are a couple of other places we would have gone before Indiana (he also spent a week in Los Angeles). We can only wonder how different the world would be right now had he gone to Disney World instead. [NYer]

How can I convert Gmail from standard view to basic HTML view permanently? A while ago there was an option at the bottom allowing me to do so, but now it is gone.
The direct link to basic HTML view is: https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=html&zy=h
From the Gmail help page.
** update: if you sign out (of standard view) then sign back in, a link appears in the lower right while your inbox loading screen is up. Not as convenient as having the link permanently available below your inbox, I agree -- but better than using that awkward direct link perhaps.
Addition to above: Once you are signed into basic gmail using above info, click on the "basic view" option at the top right on your Inbox page. This will convert you to basic permanently, or until you want to change back to standard.

Gross. People.
LAX is where I was able to bring a ceramic bottle of sake in my carry-on through customs without a peep. I declared it on my form and all, but the security dude didn't even look at the second sheet.
Maybe they re-named the club in honor of all the laxatives cut into the drugs everyone is doing.
Well, T3 is pretty ugly. But if you fly on United, T6-7-8 are pretty nice and spacious. Looks like a bad day for Alaska, though.
Dan: this is why airlines sell club lounge memberships: so you can minimize interacting with the proletariat! Airlines know their basic product is substandard so they create alternatives at higher prices! Hence first class and lounge memberships.
Go buy your self a Board Room membership or day pass!
@4 - Yes, T3 is a disaster.
With 8 terminals in a big horseshoe shape, LAX is like 8 different airports. Of course, this makes it a total pain in the ass if you have a connection on a different airline.
The International terminal isn't bad.
When I was a tween in the early 80's taking red-eye flights a couple times a year to visit far-flung family, LAX was the coolest place on Earth.
Alas, Dallas-Fort Worth airport was and is the Earth's smelly armpit (and also a major transfer hub).
LAX is the most disorganized airport I've ever flown out of. First off they don't have room for the baggage screening machines, so you can't just drop off your checked bags and go -- you have to wait in line to check your bags, then you have to wait in ANOTHER line for a screening machine. When I was there I had to wait in three separate screening lines because people kept going on break and abandoning their machines.
In the last two weeks, I've been in seven airports. I can say that the worst of these is the Tijuana airport, which reminds me of an ER during hurricane season.
In my lifetime, though, honors go to the Portland airport (which is nowhere near Portland) and the Sacramento airport, which is smaller than my apartment and is apparently built out of a shipping container, and the Houston Bush airport, as it has a nine-foot tall bronze statue of the first President Bush, who's from Connecticut.
Orv, I've never had that problem, and here's why: I routinely fly with guns. The minute you tell them you have guns, TSA pulls you out of the line and gives you very personal service all the way through the process.
DFW has to be way up there as well, but ALL airports are an integral part of the various circles of hell...
When in LAX, best to look out the window at this
and have a little Pan Am dream of jet-set-era glam.
I've been unlucky to experience this very terminal Dan snapped a photo of, but I do hear that, much like L.A. itself, it's interesting once you know where to go to see the interesting stuff.
But yeah, the Alaska terminal for LAX is even worse than Oakland's, which says a lot. When your only vegetarian option is an de-chickened chicken quesadilla at Home Turf, you know that you're not going to have a decent meal, vegetarian or not.
It's ugly AND inconvenient. You land there, think you're in LA, and have to drive an hour, an hour-and-a-half, before you're home or where you need to go - usually driving on the 405 which is always congested. Nobody uses it unless they absolutely have to. It's why Bob Hope, John Wayne, Ontario, and even Palmdale Airports are becoming more popular if somewhere in LA is one's destination.
Yup, just flew through there, and the whole family (who are all well-traveled) all agreed that LAX is one of the worst laid out and designed airports we had had the misfortune to be trapped in.
And to think they renovated this P.O.S recently...
Those crazy terminal ROOMS - I can remember flights from when I was a toddler, out across Greenland to our (my father´s legal) refuge in Europe, and the long white tunnel to baggage claim - I flew through there last year, and it was all the same (except big multistorey parking garages and viaducts stood where in the 70s it was just the flat lots surrounding the symbolic revolving restaurant - I heard the revolving part broke a while back).
I was trapped in one of the rooms a few years back waiting for a flight several yards from Stephen Malkmus, who I kind of knew 15 years ago but really don´t, and I was remembering taking off from there in 1973, discovering the Reese´s Peanut Butter Cup which I didn´t know about because we lived in France, and...it was weird.
OK, now I have to go to a cockfight.
I agree with @4 and @6 - but it still exhausts me way more at LAX than at SFO when I fly to Santa Barbara.
Chantico at LAX Starbucks were good tho. Too bad they got rid of those ... only reason I went into Starbucks.
Say, while we're on the subject, is San Jose ever going to finish their new terminal? The old one is a joke. It's about the size of a DMV office, and has the same decor. There are no jetways, you have to go down a set of airstairs and walk across the tarmac. Meanwhile you're looking at the new one under construction, and it looks abandoned...tarps flapping in the wind, no one in sight.
LAX is bad, but DFW is the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth semi-circles of hell.
LAS is the dive bar of airports. Only with less character than a dive.
Worst airport, though? TUL, which I flew into today. Only ten gates still in use -- on TWO concourses. Food is awful. Decor is straight out of 1965 (the bad part). Bags take 20 minutes to arrive at baggage claim -- your could WALK them from the plane to baggage claim. And $10 for wi-fi?
Yes, LAX the airport is unpleasant. Yes, it is actually more like 8 separate airports. No, it doesn't get shut down nearly as often as SEA for security breeches.
As for the nightclub in Las Vegas called LAX. UGH. I was trapped there for about an hour on a Saturday night. Worse than being trapped at the airport.
the non-NWA terminal of DTW and the NWA terminal at narita are the two gateways to hell.
Like health care, infant mortality, life expectancy, obesity, education, quality of journalism, gun violence, America's airports rank with the worst in the world. South East and east Asia's airport have surpassed America's by leaps and bounds. Many of America's better ones still rank better than those in developing countries, for now.
I just had gone through security at LAX where they did some crazy drill where they all scrambled away from there posts and pulled their guns. Freaked everybody out. Then after that I got to sit in the international departure lounge, which felt like Siberia.
