Disaster on Our 10th Anniversary
Posted by
DALLAS, TEXAS -- To whom it may concern:
My name is Brent Mosley. I am currently staying at the Live Aqua hotel in Cancun, MX. My reservation was cancelled by Travelocity, after I was told specifically that my hotel reservation was adjusted for my wife and I to arrive the following day on July 09, 2013.
We missed our original flight on July 08, because we were told by the Travelocity booking agent that there was no need for passports to travel from Dallas, Texas to Cancun, Mexico and that a birth certificate would suffice. I asked him to make sure and he absolutely stated that it would not be a problem. We trusted the word of this booking agent way too much. So, we showed up excited for our 10 YEAR Anniversary trip and get turned away by Spirit Airlines, because my wife only had her birth certificate on hand.
I called Travelocity and requested a full refund expecting that we would not be able to continue our trip, even at a later date. One representative said that I needed to cancel my reservation with the airline before we could receive a refund. I cancelled the reservation with Spirit Airlines while on the phone with the representative. The Travelocity representative continued to say that the airline reservation was still active. I was at the airport staring at the Spirit Airlines agent and he assured me he canceled the flight reservations. Finally, the representative said she needed to place me on hold and speak with the Hotel. We were on hold for 30 minutes. She did have the courtesy to check in now and then and say that she was still on with the hotel. She finally came back on the line and stated that unfortunately she could not cancel the reservation. I was speechless. After a few seconds, I said, "What....what do you mean you can't cancel the reservation?" She stated that the hotel could only cancel the reservation via an email and that a refund would be given then, but they could not refund the full amount. Again, this was not acceptable. I told her I needed a refund in order for my wife and I to travel to a US destination as we were still at the airport. The agent placed me back on hold, and after several minutes came back on the line and said that the hotel could not cancel the reservation at this time so a refund was not possible right now, but she would have to send an email to cancel the reservation and potentially get a refund, but it was not guaranteed. She said that I could call back in two hours or so to check. I was not pleased at all. I asked to speak with a supervisor. I was placed on hold again. She came back and said that a supervisor was not available, but she could arrange a call back. After some more words, I said OK. She then stated that a supervisor would call me back or I could call back in a couple of hours. My wife was in tears.
I went back up to the Spirit Airlines desk and asked another airline representative for possible flights to Miami and Las Vegas. They were all oversold. I told her about the situation, and she advised me that we could still fly to Cancun by getting a passport that day as long as we had a flight receipt. I was not very trusting, so I inquired some more. She said that there was a passport office in downtown Dallas that would issue a passport the very same day as long as we have a receipt showing that we had a scheduled flight reservation for the next day. I immediately called Travelocity to instruct them NOT to cancel our hotel reservation, while I booked a next day flight to Cancun. I specifically told the Travelocity representative and NOT cancel the reservation, but instead adjust it for next day check-in. She placed me on hold to speak with the hotel. She came back on the line and stated that she had adjusted the reservation for us to arrive the following day (July 09), but unfortunately I would not be refunded for the first day as the hotel refused to do so. I was not happy again, but I said OK I will fight that battle later. I asked about the ground transportation. She stated she could take care of that and placed me on hold again. She came back on the line and said that we were all set and that it was taken care of for us to arrive the following day and we would be picked up. I said this is fine for now, but I advised that we had spent extra money due to bad advice from one of their agents. I asked to speak with a manager. She stated a manager would call me back.
We had left the airport, hailed a cab and headed straight downtown to get my wife a passport. The cab driver said he knew of the passport place and barely got us there on time to submit the application. Luckily, we got the passport. We were told by Travelocity that our reservation was still good and adjusted for the next day. After we arrived home attempting to reconcile what had happened, I received a call from a (571) 918-6500 number. It was the Supervisor from Travelocity. He said, "Mr. Mosley, I see you have modified your reservation to arrive tomorrow, are you satisfied now?" (He said nothing about our hotel reservation being cancelled.) I acknowledged that we were arriving the next day, but I advised him we had to spend several hundred dollars extra, due to bad advice from the original booking agent. He told me he could offer a discount on future travel. I asked how much. He said $50. I chuckled and stated that I had spent way more than that. He then offered to extend my trip if I could get Spirit to place me on another flight. We could not do this, because of our work schedules. It was obvious to me that he was not trying to help. I asked for his name and he hung up in my face. I was too stressed out to call back and was fed up with the level of customer service your company provided so far.
Now, my wife and I are preparing to leave the next day. We have a friend pick us up again the next morning. We arrive in Cancun and we get transported from the airport by Olympus and arrive at the hotel. We go to the front desk to learn that our reservation was not showing up. After several attempts, the young lady came back and informed us that our reservation was CANCELLED! I was livid. I told her that Travelocity assured us they adjusted our reservation for check-in the following day (July 09, 2013). She said that I would have to speak with Travelocity. I called your company and the first associate looked up my Trip ID and said that my Hotel Reservation was still active and then placed me on hold to speak with the hotel. ONE and A HALF HOURS later, basically on hold the entire time, listening to that @#$%! music and several associates telling me that I cancelled my reservation and me telling them that I was confirmed for the next day, I was told I would have to pay $1800.00 for a new reservation with the same hotel (Live Aqua) by a supervisor named "Kevin". I asked for the money I already paid to be applied and I was placed on hold again. He came back and informed me that the "hotel" requires another email, but that would take several days. I asked to speak with a manager, and "Kevin" transferred me to a "Lucas". I had to repeat the situation to Lucas, and he placed me on hold AGAIN!. I have now been on the call for TWO HOURS. My wife is in tears and distraught, staring into the hotel floor. My head is pounding and all of a sudden the phone rings and another agent answers. I had been disconnected by Lucas. I'm furious and seriously considering litigation. I then walk over to the front desk of the hotel and asked to book a room. I told the manager that my 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY was ruined by Travelocity. I paid another $1800.00 (a higher rate) on top of the $2436.00 (original vacation price) plus several hundred I paid for the screw up the previous day to salvage our vacation. No one from your company apologized or even attempted to truly help us. My wife's eyes were bloodshot red from all the crying. Do you think we are in a mood to enjoy our vacation now? I have spent more time writing this letter. The hotel told me that Travelocity has my money. The hotel never received the funds from when I booked the vacation package back in May of this year. And it doesn't make sense for a hotel to keep all your money, when you are not staying there.
If I am not made whole for this debacle and the pain and suffering we have encountered, then I will seriously consider escalating this matter. And with your reputation online, I think we will get way more than what you are now refusing to refund, because you seem to have systemic flaws in your service delivery model. And I'm being nice. I could be perceived that you defraud your clients. I am requesting a full refund. It is NOT RIGHT for me to pay for a hotel TWICE, because YOUR company's coordination skills are poor. The last communication I received from your company ( a Supervisor) before we boarded our flight today was that my reservation had been modified successfully and we were all set. We were still not totally satisfied, but we would still get to enjoy Cancun. Now, all the money I had budgeted for expenditures is gone to keep my wife from totally breaking down and to keep me halfway sane. Your company will not be successful treating it's customer's like this. I am in the hotel room spending my time doing this instead of enjoying my 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY. Please salvage any bit of reputation you might have and HELP US!!!

Ripped OFF with wrong itinerary
Posted by
Jesus Help me
I booked a 7 night vacation package to Cancun on Airtran website which ended up being really through Travelocity. (The 5 night trip was more than the 7 night, that is why I booked it for 7 nights!) When I got my emailed itinerary it was for a 5 night trip. I did not print my paperwork until Thursday (I booked it Wednesday night) & I really didnât look at it until Friday. When I called they offered to cancel it for $1100.00 non refundable fee. It is Travelocity âpolicyâ to be unable to make changes even if the airline & hotel allow it. I have nothing that says the trip I booked was for 7 nights, all I have is the itinerary they sent me. I know I booked for 7 nights because I read over the confirmation page to my husband over the phone and it said from Tuesday, July 21 to Tuesday, July 28, plus I had a problem with my payment info going through so I rechecked it 3 times. Still they would not fix it. One supervisor, however nice she was, said she could not do anything about the airline portion and the next supervisor could do something about the airline portion but charged me for more nights of the hotel. He also could not guarantee me a seat on the Tuesday flight back home, which he thought was acceptable for me to get stuck in Mexico, but I didnât. He could get me a flight on Wednesday if he could get Airtran to agree to reissue at no charge, even though the flight was cheaper on Tuesday (no refund either). Next he said I would have to pay for the 3 nights for the hotel at $377.00. But I had already paid for 2 of those nights in the 7 night package I originally booked(?). After about 6 hours on the phone, I was totally exhausted and ill. I gave up and agreed to pay the 377.00 for the 3 nights hotel. After he got Airtran to agree to the change, which he had said he doubted they would do, he said he had made a mistake and the hotel was actually 565.00. He had already changed my flight so I didnât feel I had much choice but to pay the 565.00. The end result is that I paid $2,398.80 for a trip that should have cost me (& still is available today for) $1865.24. The eight day package, today, would cost $1898.72. Approximately $500.00 difference than I originally agreed to pay for the 7 day trip I know I booked. I am so sick over the whole thing. I feel like I have been ripped off big time and spent about 12 hours trying to get it straight. All of that happened last night & today I am still very unhappy about it all. My credit card company advised me to cancel the trip and dispute the charges I would readily file a dispute if I had anything that showed I had booked the 7 day trip in the first place, but all I have is the itinerary they sent to me. I went to the Airtran website today & printed my same original trip but it is not the exact amount I was originally charged either even though it was close. I am still considering disputing the charges and taking my chances that it will work out. Iâm not sure what I should do, or what I can do. I have also written letters to corporate headquarters in hopes that someone will believe me and do the right thing.

If you cancel and dispute you will lose because Travelocity will show the credit card company the disclosures and terms you agreed to when you booked the trip. Also reservations systems don't make the type of error you are describing. It sounds like your own mistake. By the way, if Airtran agreed to change your tickets at no charge, Travelocity saw a way for them to collect it by adding it to the already quoted price for the hotel. Take the trip, don't worry about it anymore as you can no longer change what happened. Take it as a lesson learned and don't use Travelocity again.
Soaring Consumer on 06/27/2009:
Seems like a clear-cut bait and switch. You paid and confirmed one thing and were booked a shorter trip instead.
I suggest that you contact Christopher Elliott, a consumer advocate for travel-related problems. Here is how to do so:
Ben There on 06/27/2009:
Soaring, I suggest you google the definition of bait and switch. Just enter "define:bait and switch" into the search box and you will see that this is nothing like any of the definitions provided. If anything this is user error, system error, or a cookie issue gone bad. The OP admits searching for 5 day packages and 7 day packages. Sometimes cookies and browsers will screw up through and alter info through no fault of the online seller. It is unfortunate that she did not read the email as soon as she got it as much more could have been done at that point.
Soaring Consumer on 06/27/2009:
Bait, you were offered a product at an acceptable price, then Switch, one of two events. Either a) when you went to pay, the price was higher than the offered price, or b) you were actually given a lesser product for the price of the one you wanted.
It falls in the category, he confirmed a 7 day trip and was subsequently given an itinerary for a 5 day. Travelocity should have corrected this for no charge, especially since they are still supposedly advertising this package.
BokiBean on 06/27/2009:
If the OP doesn't have confirmation for a 7 day trip, there's very little she can do.
charlie24201 on 06/27/2009:
Why don't people use LOCAL travel agencies, instead of this internet crap?
The problem is that they always have a "way out" of anything.
Credit card companies & banks are on their side, not yours.
Don't ever give your credit information on line, they have a reason for not accepting money orders....they want to "play" with your account.
Travelocity used to be pretty decent but they have gotten on scam bandwagon, just like most every other internet site.
old fart on 06/27/2009:
If I book a trip I do it "eyeball to eyeball" with an agent... The chance of a screw-up is minimized...Charlie is right...
Anonymous on 06/27/2009:
A system cookie would never cause the kind of problems as above. You can block most cookies and web sites work just fine. The days of web sites having to use cookies is yesterdays technology. I agree with SC that the OP was baited into a deal for one price, then the Travelocity web site had an error and would only confirm and acknowledge the trip at five days instead of seven. The switch was Travelocity unable to correct their data or web site error switched the OP to a higher price for $565.00.
Justthefaxx is correct, Travelocity will come up with T&C in their favor as the OP has nothing in print or writing to refer too.
Anonymous on 06/27/2009:
After the Walmart eye doc fiasco, I would think you are at an extreme disadvantage on that "eyeball to eyeball" deal there, old fart.

Soaring Consumer on 06/27/2009:
Actually the OP can win this if he proves the existence of the offer (such as an advertisement for it).
Ben There on 06/27/2009:
Soaring, the existence of an ad has no bearing on what the OP entered into her search. For example, JetBlue is advertising 4 night packages at the Hilton in Cancun from Ft Lauderdale for $299 plus tax based on availability. I searched several dates in July and August for 4 nights at this price at this hotel and I never saw anything near this price.
Using your logic, I can book it at the going rate of $700 a person for the 4 nights I want, or $299 for one night and then wait a two days and get the 4 night package at $299 plus tax?
Anonymous on 06/27/2009:
Bottom line, the OP would have to have a copy of his/her reservation with the longer stay and lower price. Or they will have a hard time winning this one.
Ben There on 06/27/2009:
Superbowl, you are exactly right... I suggest that anybody who does a lot of transactions on the internet download the free copy of Primo PDF. This allows you to "print" almost any page on the internet as a PDF just like you would with a regular printer. Once you download it, Primo PDF will appear as a printer option when you do file>print. I use this to save copies of any fine print, invoices, bill payment confirmations or any other document I might need in the future. Not only does it save a lot of paper, it actually is much easier to email instead of scanning a paper doc. If the OP had PDF'd her final confirmation at the time of booking there would be no question about the dates.

TERRIBLE Customer Service and Hidden Fees!!!
Posted by
NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- I booked a vacation package with Travelocity for traveling to Hawaii from NYC, and after booking they changed my itinerary without my consent!!! Had to spend over 10 hours on the phone with them to have my original itinerary honored, only to be disconnected toward the end of the process.
After so much frustration, my boyfriend and I decided we no longer even wanted to do business with them. We asked to cancel. That also was a run-around game b/c they refused to issue a full refund, and they did not budge on the $150 fee per passenger. What they also failed to mention was the $62 "commission fee". This, of course, was only revealed after the cancellation was already processed.
Why exactly did I have to pay a commission fee for horrible customer service and misinformation??
Lesson: book with another travel agency.

Unproffessional thieves (Travelocity) ruin vacation
Posted by
SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS -- 4 of us booked our vacation through Travelocity to cancun just before the hurricanes hit. we still wanted to take the trip since a lot would be rebuilt by the time we were to go. we called 1 week prior to departure to make sure of our reservations. we were assured all was fine, they would've notified us otherwise. we arrive to find they booked us into a hotel that was under construction. I incurred over $300 worth of cellphone charges to call Travelocity to arrange new accommodations. we also were stranded on the side of the street with our luggage for over 4 hours until they made these arrangements. we paid for a 4 or 5 star hotel, but they supposedly only had a 2 star hotel to offer. before they even made these arrangements, they wanted us to find our own hotel, pay for it, and submit receipts for reimbursement. we stayed in their 2 star for one night and made our own arrangements as they advised the next day. now after our vacation, they refuse to reimburse me for the hotel I had to pay for while I was down there. they ruined our whole trip, jeopardized our safety, and robbed us. they have refunded us for the hotel portion of our package and some of the cellphone charges, but credited it on my friend's credit card since it was the one used for booking our vacation. how am I supposed to get my money back from her credit card when I paid phone bills in cash already? may I add that when you buy a package deal for hotel and airfare you get a deal. so the amount they are offering back doesn't come close to what I had to pay for while in cancun. I DO NOT RECOMMEND TRAVELOCITY TO ANYONE. I am going to do all I can to post my complaint especially since I've seen all the other complaints on here about them. wish I would've seen them before my trip, then I would've known better!

I personally would never have called anyone else but the hotel I was staying at to ask them direct how they were affected by the storms. Travelocity can't possibly stay that up to date - they are not that with it...
brunno on 03/14/2006:
well let me tell you, after seeing the tv news on the rage of these hurricanes, I would have call the hotel myself. of coruse you should expect construction going on, if not, you must have been living in a cave to think everything would be normal. at least the hotel was open and running, you just decided that you did not want to stay in. you had a chose and decided to stay outside, you could have gone inside the hotel to wait, and you could have also used the hotel phone, not yours. I can not believe that you would complain and expect a full refund when you took the trip. as far as being ripped off, you ripped yourself off by not doing your own research.

I called Travelocity to book my vacation, the lady on the other end seemed not to understand English and I wasted approx 1 hr with her, then she said she got kicked out of the system and when she logged back in the price was higher by $300 (in 1 minute).
I went on line and could see the package I wanted at the cheaper rate and told her I would book it myself, which I did and had no problems.

I don't understand using third party vendors for booking reservations, and I don't understand calling on-line third party vendors for reservations, when their systems are primarily set up for someone to do it themselves.
getoverit on 09/29/2010:
I just booked flights and a hotel on Expedia. I was not able to book the same room via the Hotel's own website and got a better rate than the hotel adversised rate as well. And, it's refundable.
I also booked another hotel on Hotels.com at a better rate than the Hotel'own AAA rate - in that case it is non-refundable but booking via the hotel site would have been non-refundable, too.
It doesn't always work out that way but the online travel agents *can* be a better deal. What I've always is that you get written confirmations of everything right away.
If I didn't want to book online for some reason, I would just call a conventional travel agent.

We made a reservation for vacation in Hawaii. The transaction didn't get through because it was huge amount but they took half of the money from me. When asked each agent has their own answer, no consistency of information. Horrible customer service

What did you ask them?
What happened?
Ben There on 12/04/2009:
Did you charge more than you had in your account? If not, sometimes things get charged in parts - the plane tickets get charged separately from the hotel. If your credit card company freaked out after the first large purchase and put a hold on your account for security, then that is not really their fault.

New York are hoping that Moore will return to the form he showed before a Highlander line drive injured his foot in August 1905. But after making just six appearances this season' New York will waive him to the Phillies where he will regain his form in 1909. New York lose to Detroit today' 1-0.

A: Woodpeckers are fun to watch and listen to as they work their way up and down a tree looking for insects. They can also be annoying and destructive if they have found your house to drum against. Hopefully, the following information will help you eliminate this latter behavior so you can enjoy them.This is the season when woodpeckers often tap on houses. They do it for one of three reasons - to drum on a loud, resonating surface to attract a mate and proclaim their territory; to search for and excavate insects to eat; or they are trying to excavate a nest cavity.The key to deterring any of these activities is to be as tenacious as the woodpecker. Usually hanging a barrier or implementing scare devices is the most effective.To exclude woodpeckers from accessing a particular spot, you can cover the site with nylon netting or hardware cloth. Metallic or wood surfaces used for drumming may be covered with cloth or foam to dampen the resonance.Install suet feeders to offer readily accessible food sources to help prevent them from foraging on wood siding. Some woodpeckers will also eat black oil sunflower seeds, peanuts and peanut butter.Place a woodpecker nest box filled with wood shavings or sawdust over the affected area if the bird is interested in nesting or roosting. This may encourage the bird to use the box and deter them from creating a hole in another location.Scaring woodpeckers from your house relies upon the bird's response to danger or unpleasant experiences. Hang Mylar strips (like holographic tape) over the pecking locations. Models or silhouettes of snakes, owls or hawks may be the least effective unless they are hung to move in the breeze and are moved to another location every day or two. Electronic devices, while somewhat expensive, are also available to deter Flickers. Check www.bird-x.com and other internet sites for these possible solutions.Remember, to deter destructive behavior and enjoy woodpeckers, you have to be as tenacious as they are. The one who is the most persistent will be the winner!Local bird expert Larry Collins owns Wild Birds Unlimited, 2454 Hwy. 6&50, which caters to folks who want the best backyard birdfeeding experience possible.

Molly Feder and Allison Casey, special to wtop.com
The hardest thing about making this dessert is the time you have to wait for it to set in the fridge. Trust us, patience is a virtue when it comes to cheesecake!
3 Oreos
½ tablespoon unsalted Butter
3 tablespoons whipped cream cheese
3 tablespoons Nutella (can substitute peanut butter)
3 tablespoons plain or berry flavored yogurt
2 drops vanilla extract
1. Put the Oreos in a plastic Ziploc bag and zip it up. Take a stapler, water bottle or any heavy object you can find and start smashing the Oreos. (Great for stress relief!) Smash until Oreos are in small crumbs.
2. Melt your butter in a bowl in the microwave for 20 seconds or until completely melted. Take the Oreo crumbs out of the bag and put them into a bowl or glass (whatever you want your cheesecake to end up in).
3. Pour the butter on top of the Oreo pieces and mix around to get the Oreos covered. Push the mixture firmly into the bottom of your bowl with a spoon, or your fingers, until it is compacted and looks like a pie crust.
1. In a small bowl, mix cream cheese, Nutella, yogurt, and vanilla together. Make sure to mix this well so that you don't get hunks of cream cheese in your mouth when you eat this later.
2. Pour the filling into your crust. It is thick, so you might need to use a spoon or spatula to get all of the mixture evenly spread.
3. Here's the hard part - put your cheesecake in the refrigerator for 45 minutes. Eat at your next study break!

Match report
Wayne Rooney scored a goal-of-the-season contender as his brace helped Manchester United cap a memorable week with a 2-0 win at West Ham United.
After Robin van Persie's hat-trick against Olympiacos fired David Moyes' men into the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals on Wednesday, Rooney – stand-in captain due to Nemanja Vidic's suspension – gave everyone a timely reminder of his match-winning ability at the Boleyn Ground.
Rooney was employed in a more advanced role due to Van Persie's absence with a knee injury, and the 28-year-old broke the deadlock with an ingenious looped half-volley from almost 50 yards in a goal reminiscent of David Beckham's memorable strike against Wimbledon in 1996.
It was fitting that the former England captain was in attendance to witness the goal, watching from the stands, and Beckham saw Rooney add a second after 33 minutes when the ball fell to him fortuitously eight yards out.
Rooney had the chance to complete his hat-trick nine minutes after the break when he met Ashley Young's cross with a looped header, but United had to settle for the two-goal cushion.
Moyes was able to reflect on a successful week of a hitherto trying first season in charge at Old Trafford, while Sam Allardyce's West Ham are not yet out of relegation trouble, though they remain six points clear of the drop zone in 14th.
The visitors could have moved ahead as early as the third minute when Marouane Fellaini's downward header was cleared just in front of goal by Andy Carroll, but the away fans were soon celebrating Rooney's wondergoal five minutes later.
The England international spotted goalkeeper Adrian off his line and struck an audacious half-volley from almost the half-way line, with the ball looping over the flailing Spaniard before bouncing into the roof of the net.
With the home crowd still stunned into silence, Juan Mata then led a swift breakaway in the 25th minute and picked out Shinji Kagawa on the left, but the Japan international fired straight at Adrian.
West Ham were causing problems of their own from wide areas and captain Kevin Nolan saw his penalty appeal for a tussle with Darren Fletcher waved away in the 33rd minute.
That proved to be a double blow for the home side as, from the resulting counter-attack, Mark Noble cleared Young's cross straight at Rooney, who took advantage of the good fortune with a cushioned side-footed finish.
Nine minutes after the interval Rooney missed the chance to seal his hat-trick when he floated a header wide from Young's cross. The former Aston Villa winger was involved again 11 minutes later as his whipped cross was headed over the crossbar by Fellaini, who was put under pressure by James Collins.
Rooney was replaced by Javier Hernandez in the 77th minute and left the field to a rapturous reception from the visiting supporters, as United comfortably saw out the closing stages.
Manchester United manager David Moyes: "It was a great goal by a top, top player. [Rooney's] technical ability, his awareness to know where the goalkeeper was in the build-up, you'd have never thought he'd be aware of where the goalkeeper is.
"To actually execute it, to have the power and the ability to drift it in the way he did [was fantastic]. My only worry was the bounce, was it going to go under the bar or not? The goal will take centre stage but I thought our performance was excellent. Shinji, Juan Mata and Wayne were outstanding.
"The only disappointment is we didn't score more goals from the excellent football we had. Shinji had a great chance, Juan Mata had a really good chance. Marouane Fellaini should have scored a header before that as well, so before we scored (the opening goal) we probably should have been ahead."
West Ham manager Sam Allardyce: "It was such a wonderful goal from Wayne Rooney early on. No one expected him to do that, not even David Moyes. But when he did it, it was brilliant
"We pushed and tried to get back into the game, and the game changes in split seconds. We could have had a penalty - the ball's come into the box, Kevin's looking to strike the ball at goal, Fletcher gets across him then they go right up the other end and Mark Noble mis-kicks his clearance and it goes to Wayne Rooney.
"So what could have been 1-1 turned out to be 2-0. It was a shame, it was defining moments that decide it, it went in their favour."

Sette Nyx Ti Rail Saddle
The new Sette Nyx saddle makes uncomfortable lightweight saddles a thing of the past. Rear relief groove and comfort centers ensure a smooth, comfortable ride.
I have 2 of them in my 2 MTBs. The oldest has been on duty since 2009. They are light, confortable, affordable and durable.
Meah.. nice and light, decent padding, seems well made, just not a great fit for me. Pick one up and see if it fits. The $ to grams ratio can't be beat.
When my saddle arrived, two things immediately caught my attention: 1, the box weighed nothing. I think the saddle weighs less than the packaging it came in. 2, the saddle doesn't have much padding. I was a little nervous about number 2. But, then I put the saddle on my bike and tried it out. It is hard. But somehow, it is really comfortable. The saddle I had before this one had too much padding. This one is just right, as Goldilocks would say. I haven't taken it on any super long rides yet, but I am looking forward to it. I am really happy with this saddle.
This is one of the most comfortable saddles I have owned, but saddles are personal in fit. The only down side is that you do need to replace it every 2-3 years, but that is not unusual for most saddles.
For the price this scores high in all departments of saddle characteristics. And for that reason I have this saddle on my training bike which gets more miles than any of my other bikes. It is a tad heavier but more than a tad more comfortable than the lightest road racing saddles at a fraction of the cost.
I have been riding this saddle for a few seasons now and really couldn't be happier. As with any lightweight saddle, there was an initial adjustment, but it has held up well and you can't beat it for the price.
lasted 100s of miles and molds over time
There's no "butt break in" for this one, it just hurts!

I'd definitely have interest in using this. Our university beginning to embrace CAS for web app authentication. I'm currently using the PEAR CAS library, but having CAS integrated into ZF would be great!

Feb 12, 2009

Hi Teemu,

Is it fair to believe this code is only in the proposal stage, and is not at all ready for production use?

 Just wondering... as we'd like to use it, but as per http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/connecting_through_zend-auth_to_tikiwiki it looks like development didn't yet progress.

Thanks,

Feb 12, 2009

I note http://framework.zend.com/wiki/display/ZFPROP/Zend_Auth_CAS+Proposal, which could be a duplicate.

Apr 02, 2009

This proposal seems stuck...I've created an implementation and example file, but can't modify this proposal.

May 11, 2009

I updated this page to include a functional class which I have in use at UC Davis http://ucdavis.edu/

This class should be interoperable with CAS 1, 2 and 3.

Jul 02, 2009

What's involved with getting this into the release version?

I've got it running in a test environment with no problems so far.

Thanks!

Jul 04, 2009

We just need to get more people to test it and make sure it works.

I am glad to hear that it is working just fine.

Just curious, what version of CAS are you using?

I am using it on CAS version 3.

Jul 06, 2009

Hi, Jeremy:

My systems folk tell me we're running 3 as well.

Thanks!

Jul 30, 2009

I moved this into Ready for Recommendation to get this into the code base.

Jul 31, 2009

Hi, Jeremy:

Great! Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

Jul 31, 2009

I added a standalone version to this script for people who like to use only the Zend_Auth_Adapter_Cas class and not the MVC features of Zend.

All one needs to do is take "UC-02 in non-MVC," save it as a single web page and edit your CAS configuration:

<ac:macro ac:name="code"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[
$config = array(
'hostname' => 'cas.example.org',
'port' => 443,
'path' => 'cas/',

I have set this up so you need the following directory structure:

<ac:macro ac:name="noformat"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[
--library `--Zend --Acl --Amf --Application --Auth `--Adapter --Cas.php `--... --... `--View.php

You will need the entire Zend Library, I have just shown where to put your key files.

The class Zend_Auth_Adapter_Cas would be set in the folder:

The UC-02 web page would be put into:

Aug 20, 2009
<ac:macro ac:name="note"><ac:parameter ac:name="title">Zend Acceptance</ac:parameter><ac:rich-text-body>

This proposal is accepted for immediate development in the standard incubator, with the following requirements:

Coding standards:

getLogin/LogoutURL methods: URL -> Url

Design issues:

Add getters for all setters; use getters internally in all methods. This offers better encapsulation.

Don't access superglobals directly when possible; these values should be passed in.

Add methods:

Allow passing each of these via constructor:
<ac:macro ac:name="code"><ac:default-parameter>php</ac:default-parameter><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[
$adapter = new Zend_Auth_Adapter_Cas(array(
'selfUrl' => $request->getRequestUri(),
'queryParams' => $request->getQuery(),
// ...

Only if the values are not passed, should they be retrieved from the relevant superglobal

Sep 29, 2009

I have committed the adapter to the incubator.

I will begin working on Matthew's suggested changes.

Dec 16, 2009

I have updated the CAS authentication module.

Apr 06, 2010

Jeremy, thanks for your work on this adapter so far, I just started playing with it (talking to a RubyCAS server).

Things seem to work well, but following the use case above left me a little bit short when first implementing, so I wanted to mention what I had to do so it can either be documented, or perhaps something altered so it functions as the use case demonstrates.

calling ->hasTicket() after being redirected from the CAS login URL would just result in an endless redirect loop for me (the CAS server is correctly appending the ticket to the GET param "ticket").

In my controller plugin (preDispatch) I had to add the following calls before the ->hasTicket() call in order to get this to work as expected:

$adapter->setQueryParams($request->getQuery());

This would then correctly populate the adapter with the right session ticket from the query string, and then store it in the protected _ticket property, thus stopping the endless redirect.

Feb 10, 2011

Thanks for the notes Jay. I had the same problem and adding those two lines seems to have fixed things. It seems these should be added to the use case example(s) above. Or am I doing something incorrectly?

Apr 27, 2010

Hi All,

Am I correct in assuming that the working code for this proposal in only available via cut/paste from this proposal page? I brief look in SVN (http://framework.zend.com/svn/framework/extras/) does not reveal the code for this proposal, even though it was granted incubator acceptance.

Could someone point me in the right direction for where this code is being stored please?

Thanks, Andrew

Apr 27, 2010

Andrew, It's in the incubator currently.

http://framework.zend.com/svn/framework/standard/incubator/library/Zend/Auth/Adapter/Cas.php

Apr 28, 2010

Cheers Jay

Sep 09, 2010

Hi all,

unfortunatly i cant create an issue for this incubator component. Its not listed in the Issuetracker.

I use this component instead of phpCAS, and it works really well. But there is one thing i missed so far. I need to have access to the full xml-response from the server. In my case the server sends additional authentication information within the response XML. So I modified getResponseBody():

<ac:macro ac:name="code"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[
protected function getResponseBody($body) {
$xml = simplexml_load_string($body, 'SimpleXMLElement', 0, $this->_xmlNameSpace);
if(isset($xml->authenticationSuccess))Unknown macro: { return get_object_vars($xml->authenticationSuccess); }
else {

and authenticate():

<ac:macro ac:name="code"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[
public function authenticate()
if($result = $this->validateTicket($this->getTicket(), $this->getService()))Unknown macro: { return new Zend_Auth_Result(Zend_Auth_Result}
elseUnknown macro: { return new Zend_Auth_Result(Zend_Auth_Result}

Thus the whole behavior is the same except that every node from the response is also in the $messages from Zend_Auth_Result.

Will you consider this change?

Thanks,

Markus

Sep 09, 2010

Hi, Markus:

Will your changes break existing instances?

Thanks,

Sep 20, 2010

Hi Markus,

I am glad you are getting good use out of the adapter.

I committed your suggestion as it did not break backwards compatibility.

I am sure others may want the full response as well.

Thanks for your input!

Sep 10, 2010

Hi Greg,

no, i dont think so. In the end, the only difference is that Zend_Auth_Result has $messages even if the result is SUCCESS.

Thanks,

Sep 10, 2010

Hi, Markus:

Then I'm all for it!

I vote yes.

Thanks!

Sep 10, 2010

I can test this out next week (Sept 13th - 17th).

I also need to finish the unit tests so I can get this checked in.

If anyone has any thoughts about the unit tests, please let me know.

Sep 10, 2010

Hi, Jeremy:

I'm a total novice with unit testing in general, so I'm probably not much help. But I'll do what I can. What do you need?

Thanks!

Sep 10, 2010

We need to have all of our test cases setup:

CAS server is unavailable

CAS authentication succeeded

CAS authentication failed

CAS returns bad xml

CAS returns wrong information

Any authentication tests required by Zend_Auth_Adapter

The tests will eventually end up here:

http://framework.zend.com/svn/framework/standard/trunk/tests/Zend/Auth/Adapter/

Oct 13, 2010

This adapter is affected by the PHP bug:

http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52106

Oct 29, 2010

Jeremy,

Does this bug effect PHP 5.3.2? I recently included your Cas.php code, followed your direction, but kept getting a redirect loop. So then I added Jay Klehr's suggestion, but when it returns the following error messages:

[0] => Authentication failed: Failed to connect to server

[1] => Unable to Connect to ssl://fed.princeton.edu:443. Error #0:

This only happens when it is trying to validate the ticket. The class is able to redirect me successfully to my CAS server, but once I authenticate, it chokes on the ticket validation. Is there any workaround? Or am I doing something wrong. Here is my casAction() for reference:

http://pastie.org/1258446

Perhaps I'm using it incorrectly.

Thank you,

Oct 29, 2010

Hi Henry,

I have not coded a work around yet. At my university (UC Davis), we have a test environment that is using a self-signed certificate.

The test environment is not affected by the PHP bug. The production server is identical with an SSL certificate from Geotrust. I get the same error:

Unable to Connect to ssl://...

There are a few recommendations in the bug report:

http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52106

I have not had a chance to check if I can pass options to Zend_Http_Client to workaround the error.

Someone changed the default ciphers:

'ciphers' => 'ALL:!AES:!3DES:!RC4:@STRENGTH', // OK:LOW

when using:

Zend_Http_Client is not using that method, so I am not sure if I can do something similar.

Oct 29, 2010

I fixed the code. Here is the patch file. Essentially I changed the adapter from Socket to Curl and that did the trick. Perhaps we can make the adapter a Zend_Auth_Cas configuration option? Or just replace the Socket adapter overall? Will that break backwards compatibility? What are your thoughts?

Thanks Henry,

I will try this out next week. If all goes well, I will put it in the incubator.

Nov 02, 2010

I am putting in code to use different client adapters with options.

For example, I need to specify a Certificate Authority file to be able to use cURL.

- $client = new Zend_Http_Client($this->getValidationURL());

Nov 03, 2010

I checked in a new revision with the ability to specify an adapter with Zend_Http_Client.

Here is the latest file in the incubator:

http://framework.zend.com/svn/framework/standard/incubator/library/Zend/Auth/Adapter/Cas.php

This is revision: 23291

Please see:

Use cases: UC-01 in MVC, at the top of the page, for details on how to specify the client adapter: Zend_Http_Client_Adapter_Curl

Nov 04, 2010

Works like a charm!!!! For sake of yet another use case, I'll share my code below.

Here is my sample page:
http://cluedo.princeton.edu:8080/auth/login

Here is my sample config file:

[cas]

hostname = fed.princeton.edu

port = 443

path = "cas"

clientAdapter.adapter = "Zend_Http_Client_Adapter_Curl"

Finally, here is the actual call to grab the auth adapter:

$options = new Zend_Config_Ini(APPLICATION_PATH . '/configs/config.ini');

$adapter = new Zend_Auth_Adapter_Cas($options->cas->toArray());

Can't get any easier, now to move the code from incubator to production so I don't have to have two separate "svn:externals" in my subversion working copy <ac:emoticon ac:name="smile" />

Thank you Jeremy!!!

The blog author embraces her inner Leia.
Ok, I admit it. I am of the generation that grew up with the original Star Wars (that would mean episodes IV through VI for the rest of you.) I grew up pretending I was Princess Leia, and I even had a Princess Leia shampoo bottle (disturbingly, the head is the bottle cap that twists off.) I embraced the Ewok movie too. Later on, I read Joseph Campbell's The Hero with a Thousand Faces because I heard that was the book that inspired George Lucas. In San Francisco, I stared at the ships beyond the wharf, as I had heard that was the place that gave inspiration to many of the ships in Star Wars
So when I heard that they were making a new trilogy about Anakin Skywalker, I couldn't contain my excitement. Sadly, like many of us who grew up with the originals, I was deeply disappointed in episodes I to III. It was like George Lucas had taken the greatest villain in cinematic history (Darth Vader) and reduced him to a whiney sniveling shadow of a young Jedi (what is up with that!?!?)
The good news is, despite all that, Star Wars is still wildy popular, especially in hyperspace, and it's not because of George Lucas endlessly re-editing the films (I don't even want to talk about what he did to Return of the Jedi). Lego certainly has something to do with it – Lego Star Wars books, the game on Wii, etc. have breathed some new life into old loveable characters, such as Chewie. One can only imagine what would happen if Lego teamed up to create some kind of Hunger Games model sets… but I digress.) The other factor is the fans themselves and the endless video spin-offs you can find on YouTube or the books you can find in the library – for example, I just read Darth Paper Strikes Back: an Origami Yoda book by Tom Angleberger. This is the sequel The Strange Case of Origami Yoda, and I quite enjoyed it.
For those who just want to peruse the art the fans have created on the internet, here is a few to check out:
1)Star Wars Uncut. This is a Star Wars fan tribute video, coordinated by Casey Pugh, where thousands of fans got together and did a scene by scene remake of Episode 4. They filmed with Lego, with their old Star Wars toys, with themselves, with their own home-made videos. And from what I have seen, it is awesome: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ezeYJUz-84
2)Jedi Cats Strike Back. Two college students filmed this vignette with their newly rescued kittens. It is absolutely adorable, and pretty much the only non-violent light saber battle that I could find on the internet: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Z3r9X8OahA
3)Chad Vader. This is a series made by Blame Society Productions about a guy related to Darth who happens to work at a grocery store called Empire Market. Or at least he did. Here is Chad trying out some other work. It doesn't go so well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmDf6SnTVxg
4)Pink Five. This series features Stacey, a rather chatty X-wing pilot that was created by some true Star Wars fans. Here, she has accidentally followed Luke Skywalker to the planet Degobah: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kf8bbaX6D1s
5)John Williams is the Man. This is a rather hilarious acapella Star Wars tribute (although it's actually done to the tune of the Indiana Jones theme...but that is just a mere technicality, right?): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lk5_OSsawz4
And don't forget to check out Wookiepedia – the Star Wars wiki – where you can get lost for hours reading everything you wanted to know about Star Wars at http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page

Touring Superleggera ramps up production of Bentley Flying Star
by Noah Joseph (RSS feed) on Jan 20th, 2011 at 6:57PM
Bentley shooting brake, anyone? Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera can hook you up. The Milanese coachbuilder unveiled the Flying Star at last year's Geneva Motor Show, and stole our hearts in the process. But since the shooting brake debuted and its order books opened, Touring has only made three examples of the custom creation. No wonder, as the coachbuilder says it takes 4,000 man-hours to transform a Continental GTC (still the outgoing model, we gather) into the long-roofed coupe. But thanks to increased investment in the form of new equipment and staff, Touring can now reportedly be... Read More

Hello, my name is Jason. Welcome to my blog on the interwebs. You can reach me on twitter @jason and by email at email@example.com. My Skype is jasoncalacanis, and my mobile phone is 310-456-4900.
I only pick up numbers I recognize, and in terms of emailing me, the best strategy is to write short, blunt and to the point requests. I can quickly respond to short messages, and many times I simply don't have the time to read five page pitches. In terms of taking meetings, I only do that after reviewing an actual product (not a business plan). So, the best time to ping me is when you have mockups or an alpha site. I don't read business plans, and I've never written one.

Themes and table styles are two ways in Excel 2013 of applying formatting to an entire worksheet or data range at once. (Themes are formatting presets that you can apply to entire worksheets.) Each one can be used with preset settings or customized for an individual look. For each one, you can then save your custom formatting to reuse in other workbooks and tables.
Themes are standard across most Office applications (including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint), so you can standardize your formatting across all the documents you create.
In this exercise, you learn how to apply a theme and a color theme.
Open your document in Excel.
Choose Page Layout→Themes.
A list of themes appears, as shown in this figure.
Choose the Slice theme to apply it.
Notice that the color of the fill behind cells A1:C1 changes, as do the fonts, as shown in this figure.
