One by one, members of Real Salt Lake shuffled into the downtown office Monday night preparing to put an official end to the 2013 Major League Soccer season. Players walked in and out for their end-of-year physicals marking the final act of this particular group, one that turned heads, finished with 56 regular-season points, a Western Conference title, and ultimately, lost in a whirlwind of a finale in Saturday's MLS Cup final at Sporting Park. The marathon penalty-kick shootout which reached 20 penalty attempts hasn't left the minds of the players, and realistically it may never escape ... |

Kansas City, Mo. • Dell Loy Hansen is an interesting man. It has only further resonated with me after posting Part I last night following our sit-down interview Wednesday afternoon in downtown Salt Lake City. The Real Salt Lake owner, in his first full year of owning the team, was engaging, certainly putting his own patented spin on subjects, which was fascinating. As noted yesterday, Hansen spoke about his relationship with RSL coach Jason Kreis, his approach to Designated Players and essentially calling Nat Borchers a Viking who shoots fire from his eyes. |

Staring out at the recently snow-capped valley from his top-floor office in downtown Salt Lake City, Dell Loy Hansen addressed several topics regarding his time as owner of Real Salt Lake in a 38-minute interview with the Tribune. Several topics were broached, including the status of RSL head coach Jason Kreis and where his contract negotiations stand leading into the dwindling days of the 2013 Major League Soccer season. Hansen spoke about the 48 hours before he bought into the team in 2009, 48 hours before RSL beat Colorado on the last day of the regular season, a win that catapulted ... |

Tickets to this year's MLS Cup are the hottest in league history, according to ticket search engine SeatGeek, and 15 percent of the interest is coming from Utah. The average resale price of tickets to see Kansas City host Real Salt Lake, $211, is the highest-ever in the MLS, edging out the 2011 MLS All-Star Game ($208), in which the league's best players faced off against the English Premier League's Manchester United in New York. "It's a much different market," says Connor Gregoire, SeatGeek communications analyst. "To see the MLS Cup in Kansas City surpassing that game, which had international players in a m... |

Twelve hours after Real Salt Lake danced on the turf at JELD-WEN Field, celebrating its return to the MLS Cup final, Major League Soccer — which will be entering its 19th season — released the 2014 season schedule. And while all the focus now transitions from Portland to Kansas City in the two weeks leading up to the MLS Cup on Saturday, Dec. 7, fans can start looking to next season and planning trips or marking down games they hope to catch at Rio Tinto Stadium. RSL opens its 2014 campaign at the L.A. Galaxy on Saturday, March 8, in Carson, Calif. The season kicks off at 8:30 p.m. local... |

Portland, Ore. • His hands on his hips, donning a backward cap and sporting a brand new Western Conference champion T-shirt, Ned Grabavoy took a long pause to assess his team's run back to MLS Cup. It's been a while since RSL last tasted a trophy, and there have been several instances of heartbreak along the way. Since winning MLS Cup in 2009 in Seattle as an underdog, RSL has come very close to adding hardware to the trophy case at Rio Tinto, but not until Sunday night in Portland had they accomplished that. The 2011 loss to Monterrey in the CONCACAF Champions League final at home. |

Major League Soccer announed its 2013 season award finalists Wednesday, and some love has been shown to Real Salt Lake. Head coach Jason Kreis, goalkeeper Nick Rimando and defender Nat Borchers are three finalists for 2013 MLS awawrds. Kreis is a finalist for the MLS Coach of the Year, along with New York's Mike Petke and Portland's Caleb Porter. RSL went 16-10-8 in the 2013 regular season, earning the No. 2 seed and finishing with the second-most regular-season point total — 56 — in franchise history. Kreis has led the club to the brink of its second MLS Cup final in five seasons follow... |

"We understand that we're in a dangerous position ... but so what?" Jason Kreis loves the underdog role, and in a few hours the Real Salt Lake coach will see his side take the pitch at Rio Tinto Stadium facing elimination in the second leg of the Western Conference semifinals against the L.A. Galaxy. Twelve days of chatter on how to slow the Galaxy has continued, and the same answers have poured in. If RSL wants a shot at equalizing this series after 90 minutes — or pulling off the upset — it has to rediscover the offensive flow it had in the dog days of summer. In seven competitions in ... |

Carson, Calif. • At some point last week, Jason Kreis said that a 1-0 loss would fit under the umbrella of "acceptable results" in Real Salt Lake's first leg of the Western Conference semifinals against the L.A. Galaxy. I asked Kreis if he felt the same way following RSL's 1-0 loss at the StubHub Center Sunday night in Southern California. "Did you think I was going to change my mind?" he responded. I didn't, and Kreis did not change his min... |

Time to exhale. Over 48 hours after the regular season came to a close, it was announced Tuesday night that the second leg of the Western Conference semifinal between Real Salt Lake and the L.A. Galaxy will be played Thursday, Nov. 7, at Rio Tinto Stadium in Sandy at 7 p.m. The match will be broadcast nationally on ESPN2. The second leg comes three days after the first, which is slated to be played Sunday, Nov. 3, at the StubHub Center in Carson, Calif., at 7 p.m. MDT and be shown nationally on ESPN. |

Did Jason Kreis see Real Salt Lake sitting — for how long, who knows? — in first place on the night of Oct. 23? "Absolutely not," said the RSL head coach Wednesday night. "I don't think we should belabor the point, I don't think we should skirt around it. If at the beginning of the season you told me we would barely slip into the playoffs I would have said I'll take it. Absolutely I'll take it. Give it to me and I'll take it, we'll have a chance in the playoffs." Regardless of how the postseason plays out, it was a... |

Things got a little crazy on deadline last night. Entering Saturday night's match at JELD-WEN Field, most everyone was under the impression that RSL could clinch its sixth-straight playoff berth with a win over the Portland Timbers. Turns out, a draw was more than enough. With Seattle's 2-0 loss at FC Dallas and Colorado's 3-2 win over Vancouver at home, RSL's 0-0 draw at Portland ensured a point and another year of playoffs in Utah. The dr... |

Playoff dates? They're out. Kinda. Major League Soccer announced Thursday potential playoff dates for this year's 2013 MLS Cup Playoffs. The MLS will observe the international date that falls on the third weekend of November. There will be an extended break between the second leg of the Conference Finals and MLS Cup — as was the case in 2012 — which also coincides with the Thanksgiving holiday in the United States. |

Is Major League Soccer close to revamping its season schedule, moving toward the traditional winter-laden slate used by European leagues? According to a story by The New York Daily News, MLS is "inching closer" to adopting a "European-type" schedule that could be implemented as soon as the 2014 season. Frank Isola of the Daily News reported that the plan — in full support of FIFA, the sport's governing body — would have the MLS season begin play in either late July or early August and include a six- to eight-week w... |

Abdoulie Mansally will miss Real Salt Lake's final two regular-season matches. The RSL fullback was issued a one-game suspension — on top of the mandatory one-game suspension following a red card — as well as a fine by the MLS Disciplinary Committee Friday for his ill-timed tackle on FC Dallas midfielder Jackson in their 1-1 draw Saturday at Rio Tinto Stadium. Mansally received a straight red card on the tackle in the 15th minute, but the committee, "determined that his actions endangered the safety of his opponent... |

I spoke with Real Salt Lake coach Jason Kreis at training today and asked him what he attributes to Kyle Beckerman's rise with the U.S. men's national team over the last year or so. Beckerman, a 31-year-old midfielder who has no doubt worked his way into Jurgen Klinsmann's good graces, has 32 career national-team caps and started in the World Cup-clinching 2-0 win over Mexico on Sept. 11. Beckerman could be in line for another start in Friday's World Cup Qualifier against Jamaica in Kansas City, Kan. "Probably t... |

It should come as no surprise. Real Salt Lake's Kyle Beckerman and Nick Rimando still remain part of immediate future for Jurgen Klinsmann and the United States men's national soccer team. Klinsmann named both Beckerman and Rimando to his roster for the final two World Cup Qualifiers against Jamaica (Oct. 11) and Panama (Oct. 15) Sunday afternoon. It's become somewhat of regularity now. It's no doubt Klinsmann is high on both RSL players. He put Rimando in goal for the CONCACAF Gold Cup, which the U.S. ended up w... |

Sandy • A day after Sports Illustrated reported Real Salt Lake coach Jason Kreis had flown to England to meet about the possibility of becoming the first manager of the expansion New York City FC, Kreis did not deny the report but said his focus remains with his team in Utah. "I want to be clear and say that nothing for me has changed," he said. "My focus is completely on the team. My focus is on doing everything I can to win the Open Cup, challenge for a Supporters' Shield and hopefully get us in a position to win an MLS Cup.

Real Salt Lake coach Jason Kreis flew to England to meet with Manchester City and New York City FC officials about becoming the expansion club's new coach, according to a new Sports Illustrated report. SI.com reported Thursday that Kreis, who is out of contract with RSL at the end of this season, made the trip earlier this month. A team spokesman said interest from other clubs is not surprising. "Why wouldn't other teams — future and existing — approach us and attempt to emulate what we've built? " RSL communications VP Trey Fitzgerald said. "We have an attractive on-field identity... |

Toronto FC will announce the name of its new general manager Friday, but it won't be Garth Lagerwey. The Real Salt Lake GM was linked as a possible candidate for the opening, but a source said Lagerwey is staying put for now. The Toronto Sun also reported Lagerwey, who is under contract through 2014, could not be "pried away" from RSL. The former goalkeeper has made a name for himself in Salt Lake's front office, helping to rebuild the franchise from a league bottoms dweller to one of Major League Soccer's most consistent winners.

A handful of fans were waiting for Nick Rimando and Kyle Beckerman as they descended the escalator at Salt Lake International Airport on Wednesday afternoon after a win over Mexico the night before to clinch the U.S.'s spot in the World Cup. With any luck, a few more will be there to send the two off to Brazil next year. Rimando seems to have locked down the country's third goalkeeper spot. But with Michael Bradley out with an injury Tuesday, Beckerman put in a 90-minute shift that earned praise for teammates and reporters, and may have helped punch his ... |

Carson, Calif. • Luis Gil lined up a shot and sent a rocket flying toward goal. When the ball had sailed over the crossbar, referee Hilario Grajeda gave the go-ahead for Galaxy goalkeeper Jaime Penedo to take the kick. Real Salt Lake captain Kyle Beckerman, meanwhile, disagreed — arguing that Penedo had touched the ball — and his dissent earned him a yellow card in the 57th minute of Saturday's game. "I think we were starting to get the momentum [back] at 1-1," Beckerman said after the 4-2 defeat. "It seemed to be a corner kick, instead it's a goal kick and the next thing you know ... |

Sandy • Real Salt Lake Chris Schuler has trained fully for a week and a half now, after being held out since May with a foot injury. But as the center back works his way toward full fitness, he'll face a serious challenge regaining his place in the starting lineup. "It's going to be a battle for sure," said RSL coach Jason Kreis. Schuler could be back in contention for playing time in another week or two, his coach said. But the impressive play of 19-year-old center back Carlos Salcedo will undoubtedly pose an obstacle. Salcedo himself missed time after... |

Joao Plata is doing his job well - so well in fact that it's probably cost him chances to start for Real Salt Lake. The Ecuadorian speedster came off the bench last night and provided a crucial 78th minute goal that put RSL up 2-0, which proved to be the game winner after Salt Lake allowed a late Portland goal. Afterward, coach Jason Kreis said this about the young forward's role on the team: "I feel really awkward about this, because Joao has played really, really well for about six weeks. Really, he's done just about everything we've asked him to do. He deserves to be starting a lot more matches than he has ... |

Will Johnson is enjoying a breakout season in Portland. The former Real Salt Lake midfielder has six goals and three assists in league play this season. It took him five seasons with RSL to find the back of the net nine times. But while plenty have theories about why, Johnson still is searching for the answer. "It's a question I've been asked a lot, and I still don't really have a good answer for it," Johnson said Tuesday afternoon after training at Rio Tinto Stadium. Johnson would have had extra defensive duties on the side of Jason Kreis' diamond midf... |

Kyle Beckerman, Nick Rimando and Tony Beltran were back in Salt Lake, but had Thursday off after playing in Wednesday night's all-star game. Real Salt Lake coach Jason Kreis had expressed his desire to see the trio play as little as possible in the exhibition match, in hopes that he could play Beckerman and Rimando in Colorado on Saturday. (Beltran will be serving a one-game suspension for a red card he picked up against Toronto before leaving for the Gold Cup). Beltran played the full 90 minutes in a 3-1 loss to AS Roma, while Beckerman and Rimando each logged 45 minutes of action. That should ease some conce... |

New York Red Bull midfielder Tim Cahill will miss the MLS All-Star game on Wednesday after suffering a hard tackle by Real Salt Lake's Yordany Alvarez on Saturday. Cahill called the challenge "the worst tackle of my life," but the Australian managed to stay in the game for 85 minutes, scoring New York's first goal of the match. "It was the worst tackle of my life, 17 years of playing," Cahill said after the match. "I just watched it again and I don't know how I got up. I took a nasty knock, but for me, it's all about playing. I guess the adrenalin got the best of me." |

Real Salt Lake goalkeeper Josh Saunders underwent surgery Tuesday to repair his torn left ACL, and will miss the rest of the MLS season. Saunders, a 32-year-old veteran who helped lead Los Angeles to two straight MLS Cups, signed with Salt Lake this offseason and was the primary backup to Nick Rimando. Saunders tore his ACL on July 13 against FC Dallas, in what was only his third league game for Real. The team expects Saunders to miss six months. Barring an early exit from Gold Cup play, Rimando won't rejoin RSL until after Saturday's matchup against the New York Red Bulls. That leaves bac... |

Given the top-of-the-table clash with Sporting Kansas City (and the controversy that surrounded the 2-1 loss) Saturday was obviously a big day for Real Salt Lake.

Sandy • Third-string goalkeeper Jeff Attinella will get a real test this weekend, as he starts against a Sporting Kansas City side that leads the league in shots. But for all the talk about Attinella, Real Salt Lake's center back situation seems equally important. With Chris Schuler, Kwame Watson-Siriboe and Carlos Salcedo all out with injury, the team is down to just a few options for Nat Borchers' partner in the middle of the back line. RSL traded a pair of draft picks earlier this week to D.C. United for Brandon McDonald. "He's a guy I've always kind... |

It's a dangerous time to be a Real Salt Lake center back. First Chris Schuler goes down with a foot injury, then his replacement, Kwame Watson-Siriboe, suffers a season-ending ACL tear. His backup, meanwhile, is set to miss at least a week while recovering from gall bladder surgery over the weekend. "It seems a little bit unlucky to be a center back on our team at the moment," RSL coach Jason Kreis said after training Tuesday. But the team could be getting some good news at the position. Schuler, who hasn't played since May, could return to action withi... |

Real Salt Lake has waived seldom-used midfielder David Viana. The 21-year-old Portuguese attacker came to RSL in September 2012, but never found a regular spot in coach Jason Kreis' rotation. Viana made just two MLS appearances for the team, both coming in October of last year. Viana has experience playing for his country's youth teams. He played for RC Strasbourg's youth side and spent a year with Atletico Madrid C, the La Liga club's second reserve team, before joining RSL on a free transfer. Viana was waived prior to the July 1 cutoff, meaning his contract was not fully guarante... |

Real Salt Lake is suddenly suffering a center back shortage. Chris Schuler, the starter for the season's first 12 games, is already dealing with a foot injury. Now, backup Kwame Watson-Siriboe could miss significant time because of a likely ACL injury. Watson-Siriboe suffered an injury in the third minute of a reserve game Saturday in Phoenix. He played five more minutes before being taken out of the game. Doctors initially believed Watson-Siriboe had injured his meniscus, a team source said, but it appears now to be a more serious ACL injury. The extent of the injury and the amoun... |

The referee ultimately showed Sarvas a yellow card. But after the MLS Disciplinary Committee reviewed the play, Grabavoy was fined an undisclosed amount for "simulation." The incident, however, could still prove more costly for L.A. Sarvas is set to miss the Galaxy's game against the Portland Timbe... |

Sandy • The Vancouver Whitecaps have won just two matches this season, and sit in seventh place in the Western Conference. But Real Salt Lake boss Jason Kreis says Saturday's matchup with the Canadian club is as important as any his team has played so far. "This is as critical a game as we've faced all year," he said after training Friday at Rio Tinto Stadium. "To come back from a very disappointing performance last weekend (a 2-0 defeat at home to the L.A. Galaxy), we need to make a statement to ourselves about how good we are, and how willing we are to work, and how much we want things. So, for me, it's a critical match." |

Enzo Martinez came in to his first Real Salt Lake training camp with high expectations and, by his own admission, in terrible shape. "I don't think I could have done worse than my first year," the 22-year-old said earlier this year after playing in an exhibition win over BYU. A season removed from a disappointing rookie season, RSL's 2012 first-round draft pick has yet to play a minute with the first team. He's made the 18 only once, on the final game of last season, but Martinez has shown improvement. By all accounts, he came in to camp this year in terrific shape and he's made progress while logging 561 minu... |

Real Salt Lake goalkeeper Nick Rimando says the Los Angeles Galaxy may be the most dangerous team he's faced yet this season. But don't expect that to change the way RSL plays come Saturday evening. "I think we're both maybe stubborn teams that like to play our style of soccer," Nick Rimando said. "They don't match up against us to benefit them and we don't match up against them.

The United States Under-20 team will hold camp later this month, but Real Salt Lake midfielder Luis Gil, a staple of the squad, will not be present. The 19-year-old Gil was left off the list of 24 players announced Monday. Gil's spot on the team, however, is certainly secure. Gil seldom attends U-20 camps noncompetitive midseason camps. And U-20 coach Tab Ramos' most recent call ups are largely fringe players who could compete for the team's final few spots.

That Christmas didn't have the feel of "just another day" to it.
Not sure precisely why but there seems to have been a societal move away from it being a major holiday.
Remember when nothing was open? Oh, maybe one mom and pop corner store would open in the afternoon so you could run out and get batteries or milk or whatever but other than that, you couldn't go sit in the coffee shop, you couldn't get gas, you couldn't do very much at all.
And you certainly couldn't sit like a zombie and watch five – FIVE! – basketball games in a noon-to-midnight marathon that is so much overkill, it's not even funny.
I kind of agree with Stan Van Gundy, who once famously tweaked the NBA for its determination to try to make Christmas at least a little bit about the sport when it shouldn't be. He was – and I am – a bit miffed that families have be a bit disrupted if Dad or Mom have to go work at the arena selling concessions or taking tickets or whatever. I think the players would, if truth be told entirely, enjoy the day off rather than have to play and having watched more than a few Christmas Day games, it shows in the level of performance.
I understand, a bit, the need to worship at the altar of the almighty television dollar and the networks want programming that at least has a chance to take away from what could be family time, or at least private time.
But overdoing it so much has turned what could be a special day into just another in my little life. No way in the world I'd watch all that basketball, even if I could.
Shouldn't tomorrow be a day to hang with the family and the loved ones, play a bit for the new toys you discovered in the morning?
I want it to be a "nice" day, not "another" day.
I'm not looking forward to my own afternoon's Toronto-Houston-San Antonio flight; I'm not looking forward to dinner in a hotel lobby bar (wonder if they have turkey tacos at the RiverCenter?) and I'm not looking forward to disrupting Super Family's life by rushing through what should be a relaxing morning to pack and get shuttled off to Pearson.
But those quiet days when you couldn't do anything are gone; not sure they should be forgotten.
A little CanCon Christmas?
You can have The Hockey Song all you want; Stompin' Tom does the holidays and it's cool.
So it's come to this in the idiocy that is junk food giveaways at NBA games?
Doug Collins goes into his own pocket rather than have his team disrespect the game so fans can eat something they probably shouldn't?
Seriously, we see this so often in so many cities over the course of a season that I think the league should step in, tell its teams to stop this across the board.
I can't imagine the money the teams get for these silly promotions is substantial enough that they'd miss it if it's gone. And with a mandate from the marketing gurus in New York – and, trust me, they have to approve everything from in-game antics to music selections to the decibel level of PA announcements – teams could easily say they've love to do something like cheap food giveaways but they can't.
Seems an easy solution, doesn't it?
A question for the ages:
Why do people behind the wheels of cars become total driving idiots at this time of year?
Was watching by a mall here on Sunday and saw four cars stopping traffic each way by floating into intersections and blocking traffic like seldom seen, saw one doofus go careening around a corner screeching tires and almost knocking over a pedestrian and then saw close to a fistfight over a parking spot when there was another one open not 30 metres away.
Isn't this supposed to be the time of peace and joy and caring for your fellow humans? I understand impatience like the best of them – it is the one trait I'd love to change in myself – but this time of year seems to bring out the worst in too many of us.
It's not like the mall is going to disappear or anything, it's not like blocking traffic should make anyone feel any better.
Obligatory Raptors note, just to keep some of you happy:
No, there's been no update on Jonas Valanciunas. There were going to get him to a hand specialist on the weekend and, perhaps, seek a second opinion after that.
Doubt we'll get anything today, either. I'll catch up with them Christmas night in San Antonio and should have something then.
Okay, here's one?
Best part of Christmas dinner?
A true confession: I'm not big on turkey at all.
So …
Garlic mashed potatoes?
Sweet potato casserole?
Me? I'm all about stuffing and gravy, the taste of savoury (an integral part of any good stuffing) and gravy made from the bottom of the roasting pan.
Doesn't get much better than that does it?
We've never been what you'd call an adventuresome dining family at the holidays and that's quite fine with me. No deep-fried turkey (pretty much a guarantee of a four-alarm, holiday-ruining blaze I'd suspect) and nothing out of the ordinary.
Just quiet times with loved ones, you know what to expect and it seldom varies too much and I'm all for that.
How about you?
All right.
One more quick trip to Niagara Falls for a visit, a very little bit of last-minute running around to do, wrapping, packing for the road trip and then a search for It's A Wonderful Life somewhere on the dial to watch this evening.

Will Texas Do Better?
Lege preview, Part 2 – the wonders and the horrors
By Michael King, Fri., Dec. 14, 2012
Next month, beginning Jan. 8, the 83rd legislative circus comes to our town. It's still early – the first couple of months are largely devoted to committee meetings and other backstage business – but this week and last, we've offered a glimpse of what might be coming, based largely on the early prefiled bills of various legislators. Longtime Lege observers have noted that this December, the prefiling seems a little slower than usual – whether that's due to so many freshman lawmakers or some larger cultural malaise, nobody's quite sure.
In any case, our reporters have reviewed several categories of major legislation – budget, health care, criminal justice, environment, labor, education, and so on – to highlight a few good and bad bills (we wish we could say there were more of the former) and to spot any early trends. As is customary, the big battles are likely to be fought over the budget, and even though this session's revenues are anticipated to be much better than the last, Gov. Rick Perry and the Republican leadership have already declared their determination to govern by austerity – and if possible, to lock that approach directly into the Texas Constitution – thereby making it much more difficult for future Legislatures (no matter what the economic and social conditions at the time) to act responsibly and flexibly in addressing the state's needs. We hope that obstinate shortsightedness fails at birth, but few political bets have been won by underestimating the ability of the Texas Legislature to act from its worst instincts and willfully neglect the state's future.
At any rate, here's a taste of what's coming and some of what we'll be covering, for better and worse, at the Capitol over the next several months. There's plenty more where these came from; you can set up your own monitoring station at Texas Legislature Online (www.capitol.state.tx.us). I have a bit more to say about the Texas legislative prospects in this week's "Point Austin: Tools for Lege Watching."

Gate-to-gate Use of Portable Electronic Devices
Thursday, November 21, 2013
On October 31, 2013, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) released new guidance, which paves the way for airlines to expand traveler use of Portable Electronic Devices (PEDs) during all phases of flight (including take-off, taxi and landing).
Virgin America welcomes changes that increase traveler connectivity and convenience and has completed the necessary testing to authorize the use of PEDs during all phases of flight. Virgin America guests now are allowed to use permitted portable electronics devices (PEDs) "gate-to-gate" on all U.S. flights — with no restrictions during previously restricted phases of flight. A few rules remain, however:- Larger items, such as laptops, must be stowed for take-off and landing for safety reasons.
- Cellular devices must be in airplane mode.
For more information click here
TSA Pre✓™ now available at LAX & SJC
Friday, October 18, 2013
TSA Pre✓™ expedited screening lanes are now available for eligible Virgin America guests travelling from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) Terminal 3 and from San Jose International Airport (SJC) Terminal A. TSA Pre✓™ provides expedited screening benefits for eligible passengers to access dedicated screening lanes and take advantage of screening benefits that include leaving on shoes, light outerwear, and belts, as well as leaving laptops and 3-1-1 compliant liquids in carry-on bags.
Click here for more information on TSA Pre✓™, including details on how the initiative works, full eligibility requirements, and further information on how to apply for the TSA Pre✓™ application program (coming fall 2013).

In addition to a seat near the front of the aircraft, Main Cabin Express guests will have priority access through airport security, early boarding in Group A, and early access to overhead bin space
New Security Checkpoint at JFK
Thursday, March 14, 2013
Starting on Thursday, March 14 John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) will activate the new central passenger security checkpoint on the 4th Floor Departures Level, and will simultaneously decommission A and B Con passenger security checkpoints. The central passenger security checkpoint provides for 12 TSA lanes and 6 Ticket Document Checkers but will be severely constrained until final construction is complete at the end of April/early May.
Once the construction is complete, the permanent passenger queuing space will be significantly expanded and will provide the full level and quality of passenger queuing that JFK has planned for T4, including a queue to accommodate 1st and business class passengers. For more information see: www.tfac-jfk.org
Until construction is complete at the new security checkpoint, we recommend that all guests, including First Class and Main Cabin Select travelers arrive to the airport early to allow for sufficient time to get through security.

Growth & Skill Development
Meal times and snack times are great opportunities for your baby to learn new things and practice his motor skills—the skills that develop his small and large muscle groups. Here are some ideas:
Make a place mat with roads that lead to a snack. Place a finger food, like GRADUATES® Fruit Puffs and Veggie Puffs, at the end of the road. Then have your baby use his fingers to drive a new Puff down the road to meet his friend.
During meal time give him a soft-tipped spoon—even if you're feeding him with another. Holding the spoon may help him develop hand-eye coordination and feel more involved. Make sure to always supervise as he's learning to use the spoon on his own.
Your baby can't help make dinner, but he can check out mom's tools. Put an age-appropriate food, like GRADUATES® YOGURT MELTS™ snacks, into a plastic measuring cup and let him use his hand and finger muscles to get them out. Or place a few YOGURT MELTS pieces on his high chair tray and let him practice getting them into a measuring cup or measuring spoon.
*Offer benefits may vary. Limit one offer per household.

Even in factory overclocked form the HD6790 still isn't worth the money. It still lags behind the lower clocked 6850 which can also overclock to 900mhz or more and trades blows with the GTX460 variants at reference speeds but those overclock like mad as well and will soon be phased out in favor of the even more powerful GTX 560 and 560 Ti. HD6790 is going to struggle to find a place in many computers with more powerful alternatives only a few dollars away in price and with GTX460 and HD5770 cards being blown out to make way for newer models. Combine that with the imminent arrival of 28nm parts from both companies and it's not hard to see that this card won't find much of a niche except maybe among the uninformed.
I think this is a fine card This is, imho, what 6790 was supposed to be. The reference model is suffering from too much competition on either side of it's price point. Thank you W1z for the review, and I think there's a typo on page 1 of the review (where it says Memory Clock 1000, and later in GPU-Z screenshot it says 1100)
I don't get it, it uses more power than 6850 but is ~10% slower. I was a huge fan of the 5770 when it came out but I just can't see the point when both cards are pretty much the same price. In Aussie the 6850 is around 185 while the 6790 is around the 160 mark.
W1zzard, in future reviews can you detach the heat sink from the shroud to get a good photo of the top of the heat sink in the "a closer look" sections. Lately, I see a lot of shrouds disguising a crap heat sink as a good heat sink. Example: the sapphire 6850 looks like a good heat sink until you take the shroud off and you see it's a rather shoddy worked piece of aluminum with low quality fins. In this review I can't tell by looking at your picture whether this cooler has a similar good heatsink as my MSI GTX 460, or the same raggedly cooler as my Sapphire 6850, as they both kind of look similar from the bottom. Keep up the great work.
Well, AMD is just re-playing what they did when the 5830 came out originally, the price is just not ready for prime-time. When Sapphire has that re-released 5830 Extreme and those have gone for $106 No-Rebate and included a KWorld UB445 TV stick (Egg deal April 26th) it's just not at the right price. To me it really intended to oppose the GTX550/GTX460 786Mb, and nice Asus CU have been able to be picked-up for $115 –AR. It needs better pricing considering it gelding background, and only a 2 year warranty. While it still appears not much has improved with HIS Customer Service even with the Kingdom of Gamer initiative. Give all that, more like $140 tops with No-rebate, while say $125 on a $15 rebate very soon. Right now Egg's listing at $160, though F/S. Heck a nice XFX 6870 with Shogun title is only $12 more, and yes working a $20 rebate... But still!
Sapphire did that to steal away some customers from the GTX 550Ti. The HD5830 is noticeably faster in almost everything. The new cooler from the HD6870 allows better overclocking than the old HD5830, but Sapphire needs to be careful because this card at $120 or less could potentially steal sales from their HD6790 and HD6850 models. I understand their need to liquidate old stock so they don't end up having it to scrap it, but they also have to think of the sales of their current line of cards.

SMF Development > Fixed or Bogus Bugs
[4879] SMF 2.0 Final intermittant login and session failure (and workaround)
Gothkid, if this is your issue, this fixes it from happening in the future. However, to recover from an invalid session, you'll still need to clear your browser's cookies. Once you clear your cookies, you should be prompted to log in again, and everything should be fine.
On Apache, you wouldn't need to restart the web server, but I don't know about IIS. Do as Illori suggested and restart it. However, do view the results of phpinfo() to see if you've got the setting correct. You don't need to change the code and the setting. One or the other will fix the issue, but I suppose both is better.
I have restarted IIS mulitple times after changing the php.ini. I have also deleted my cookes and the cache folder and tried on different computers. I'm logged into my server through Remote desktop and trying on that and my home pc and both are getting the same errors. I looked at the sessions table in Mysql and there is no session id for my login.. Would that be the problem also?
The orginal session setting in php.ini is 5. I just restored the backup of the default before messing around with it. I seem i just can't figure out how to get 2.0 to work for me. Its a shame because I'm tired of MyBB tables needing repairing..
Gothkid, what happens when you log out and log back in? Also, I tried to take a look at your forum at theworld-r2.net/forum to view the session IDs, but it says Service Unavailable.
Thanks very much. Most useful
Joshua Dickerson:
rawlogic, thanks for the fix. Going to be hard to test it.
Would you consider making it in to a mod for users that haven't upgraded? I am going to commit the fix to the trunk (2.1).
Keep up the good work!

The Maroon Loyola University New Orleans VOL. 78 NO. 8 ESTABLISHED 1923 FRIDAY, OCTOBER 29 1999 Student sues landlord over alleged entry By Danielle Mastropiero Contributing Writer A Loyola junior filed a lawsuit against her former landlord in mid September, alleging sexual harassment. According to a press release from The Louisiana Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now Fair Housing Organization, she is suing her landlord with the help of the organization. The tenant reported that her landlord entered her Cadiz Street apartment without her consent, shook her awake and made inappropriate comments. She said she thought he was under the influence of alcohol 'at the time. "I couldn't even scream. He had been drinking. There was this heavy alcohol smell," said the woman, who asked to remain nameless. "He told me that he would do anything he could to help me and that he just wanted to make sure that 1 was okay. He told me that he had a crush on me. I was paralyzed," she said. According to the woman, the landlord told her he entered the apartment through her unlocked front door. Dragon takes Fox's place as nurse By Kasey Williamson Contributing writer When most people think of dragons, they probably envision medieval, fire-breathing monsters that live in dungeons. They probably do not think of the new nurse educator at the Loyola Student Health Services. But they would be wrong. Last Monday, Jo Dragon began working as the new nurse health educator for Loyola. Dragon graduated from Louisiana State University Medical Center in December 1990 and has been an emergency room nurse since then. She worked in Touro Infirmary's emergency room for four and a half years and in East Jefferson General Hospital's emergency room for the last five and a half years, where she is still officially on staff. She said she thinks it is important to stay trained in emergency medicine. Dragon made the jump from ER nurse to university health educator mainly for her family. She has a 4-yearold daughter and a 2-year-old son. She thought the more normal hours at Loyola would be better for them. Things in the emergency room DRAGON New nurse health educator A GHOULISH GLOW STAFF PHOTO BY KRISTY MAY Every year people place pumpkins out in front of their houses to let others know they are in the Halloween spirit. Loup Garou The University Programming Board reports that student ticket sales for the annual fall concert event were up compared to last year's inaugural concert, however total ticket sales were down. The Office of Student Activities reports that the event was a success nonetheless. Afroskull opened the event for feature act Run DMC. See Page 9 for related story STAFF PHOTO BY KRISTY MAY Ratio Reality Student-faculty ratio varies among colleges, differs from size of average classes By Robert Treadway News Editor When she came to Loyola, she anticipated smaller classes. "I was expecting 20 people to a class," said Michelle Hanemann, music performance freshman. "I have about 25 people in my class," she said. The information packets that the Office of Admissions sends to prospective students, say the studentfaculty ratio is 12 to one. While Loyola has a low studentfaculty ratio, it does not mean that the university has a small class size. This August, when U.S. News anil World Report published its annual rankings and statistics of the best national and regional universities, it awarded Loyola the rank of seventh in the Southern region. In the issue, the student-faculty ratio was reported as 12 to one. The ratio is determined by dividing the total number of students by the total number of faculty members. According to information from the Office of Student Records and individual colleges, this year the university has 435 faculty members and 5,341 students, which is a ratio of 12 to one. But the ratio varies among the different colleges. The ratio for the College of Business is 18 to one; in the Law School, 16 to one; and in City College, 15 to one — all above the university ratio. Not all colleges are above the 12 to 1 ratio. The ratios in the College of Arts and Sciences and College of Music are below the university ratio, nine to one and four to one respectively. These ratios do not guarantee small classes though. While Loyola has a 12 to one ratio, the reported average class size is well above this. According to the individual colleges, the average class varies between colleges: • Arts and Sciences: 20 to 25 • Business: 25 to 36 • City College: 22 to 25 •Music: 21 to 22 In the Law School classes range from 25 to 300 students. While some might say the ratio does not reflect true class sizes, Michael Rachal, director of Student Records, disagrees. "It depends on which way you look at it," Rachal said. "There's a lot that goes into it." Rachal said he thinks the ratio allows students to reasonably think that they are going to be in a class with 12 other students. "You will come into an intro course and have 80 people in class with you, but you could have an upper level course with three or four people in it," he said. Overall, Rachal said he thinks the student-faculty ratio is accurate, with some reservations. "I think it is [fair). If it stays the same over time, then it is accurate. If you compare it to 10 years ago with a different formula, then no it isn't," he said. Anne McGrath, managing editor of U.S. News & World Report s America's Best Colleges issue, said the studentfaculty ratio is only a sign of what kind of access to faculty members the college has. "We look at both (student-faculty ratio and class size). We are not saying that one is more important than the other," McGrath said. McGrath said that both factors should be used to consider a student's possible college experience. She also said that the ratio is not an indication of class size. "A college can have a low studentfaculty ratio and still have a large average class size," she said. McGrath said 40 percent of the rating for facultyrelated affairs comes from faculty OVER-AND UNDER-FULL See CASE, Pg.s See RATIO, Pg.s See HEALTH, Pg.3 • SPECIAL HALLOWEEN ISSUE• .

I don't think it's any coincidence that the stock market crashed and recently split-up couples like Jen Aniston and John Mayer, and Sarah Silverman and Jimmy Kimmel, are suddenly back together.
They may have bigger bank accounts than most of us New Yorkers, but being rich and famous is no insurance against being freaked out by the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. Freaked out enough to reach out again for the one that you love, to kiss and make up. If there is a silver lining — or should I say, a satin lining — to the stock market crash, it's more sex.
Retail sales at New York-area stores like Bergdorf-Goodman and Saks Fifth Avenue have plunged by 15.8 percent and 10.9 percent, respectively, but — surprise, surprise — business is booming at specialty sex shops. Read more…

That support, which already totals more than $200 million in funding and humanitarian aid, could be increased even more with this announcement.
But would "support" include lifting the arms embargo on Syria, an idea that France supports?
Nuland stuck this week with what the United States has been saying for months: "We are maintaining our current posture of providing non-lethal support and not going beyond that."
The United States is not ready to arm the rebels due to continued concern about extremist elements within their ranks. Other countries, like Qatar, are providing some weapons.
Any recognition of the opposition, however, raises issues with Russia, a crucial player in the Syrian equation. The Russians were invited to participate at the Marrakech meeting but declined, according to the State Department.
Moscow has been highly critical of actions by the Syrian armed opposition, even while expressing support for a political solution. The listing of al-Nusra Front as a foreign terror organization is a step that Moscow could welcome.
U.S. recognition of the opposition could anger Moscow but it also could have a positive effect. Russia has warned that chaos could ensue if al-Assad is deposed. The United States could use this recognition as a signal to Russia that the opposition council is moving toward becoming a viable government should al-Assad leave.
The next steps in dealing with the Syrian opposition leadership depend to a large extent on how that opposition continues to develop.
Nuland pointed to the process of recognizing the opposition in Libya as a template.
Recognition is just part of the process of trying to create a political solution for the Syrian conflict. At the same time, the United States is trying to urge Russia to use its influence with Damascus to help bring about a political solution.
That was the focus of recent meetings between the two countries facilitated by the joint special representative of the United Nations and Arab League for Syria, Lakhdar Brahimi.
In a statement, Brahimi said the diplomats "explored avenues to move forward a peaceful process and mobilize greater international action in favor of a political solution."
Nuland said on Monday the question now is whether there are figures in the opposition who could come together.
"Perhaps there are folks who are currently in the government without blood on their hands who could support those kinds of democratic principles and form the basis of a transitional structure going forward," Nuland said.
"Mr. Brahimi thinks it is worth a try," she added. "We want to support his efforts and we'll have to see where that goes."

What's the harm in a little gossip?
The Rev. Janice Ford, Rector
The Church of the Reconciliation (Episcopal)
5 North Main Street, Webster, MA 01570
As a kid I recall hearing this riddle: What are the best ways to spread gossip? Answer: Telephone, telegraph, tell-a-woman. It was one of those little jokes that men loved to repeat. As I got older I realized two things: one, it really wasn't that funny; and two, it reinforced a gender stereotype that was harmful to women. This is not to say that I thought women didn't gossip. It was more about the fact that men do it, too. They just called it something else which our culture thought gave it credence. Men called it discussion. Now, lest you think I am about to engage in male-bashing, let me add that in recent years women have joined the ranks of those who engage in this kind of discussion, and more's the pity.
A few weeks ago, a good friend shared a particularly difficult situation with me, and asked for my opinion and counsel. She meets with a group of professionals (men and women) once a month to discuss business trends, concerns within their profession, recent articles regarding the work, etc. She has enjoyed these meetings and found them useful. However, she explained that invariably the talk turns to one or two other professionals not in attendance. The talk varied from out and out repudiations of what the absent professionals had said or done, to cruel parodies of how they spoke, or the mannerisms they had. My friend found herself feeling very uncomfortable. Rather than join in, she would remain silent and hope that the conversation would turn to something more useful and pleasant.
We might say that what my friend witnessed was a form of gossip, but I give it an even stronger name. I call it bullying. We have all seen first-hand the horrible effects bullying can have on young people. The recent public efforts to educate young people on the harm of bullying are long overdue. But,what about adults? Perhaps we feel that because a person is no longer a child or teenager, all bets are off, and we can talk or tease without restriction whether the person is absent or present, and they should be able to "just deal with it." Perhaps we attempt to convince ourselves that "it is all in good fun," or that we are simply expressing our opinions which happen to be contradictory to that of the other. The truth is that bullying by any other name or description is still unacceptable.
The fact that adults disagree with one another is as old as humankind itself. Clearly, we cannot, and probably should not all have the same opinions on things in this life. However, there are venues available for rational, mature discussions, where both sides are equally represented. What my friend was experiencing was hardly rational, mature, or a discussion, for that matter. It was simply an opportunity for these men and women to gossip, bully, and pontificate at the expense of individuals not present to defend themselves or their positions.
Now, I don't think I have to state the obvious here, but I will. I sincerely doubt that God tolerates this kind of behavior very well. Because we are dealing with adults in this instance, we do not have the authority we might have in attempting to change the behavior of children. However, I believe God still expects us to act in a way that demonstrates our Christian understanding of how to show respect for one another. That means we need to remove ourselves from the situation at hand, so that perhaps our action will cause the others to ask "why." If that question is asked, then we have the opportunity to carefully and gently explain the discomfort we feel in a situation where bullying or gossip is being employed. In fact, I told my friend that if she continued to attend these meetings, she was complicit in the harm being done to the others not present. This was tough for her to hear, but because she could see the harm being done, she made the decision to leave the group.
The "happy ending" here would be to tell you that the other members of the group asked my friend why she chose to leave, but sadly, none of them have. My friend and I have come to the conclusion that the others know the answer to the question, so they have decided not to ask. If they ask, then they know they will be hard-pressed not to change their behavior, and that behavior is a pleasure they simply do not wish to give up.
Sin is always pleasurable.
