Not that I didn't before, but I miss him a lot. So when I'm on the road, I try to iChat with my wife so I can see him a lot." Bamforth said his wife Kendra works hard while he is on the road to take care of Kingzton. He said it's nice to know that when he's on the road, things will be OK at home. "It's tough for her, but she's a strong girl," Bam- forth said. "She does a great job of taking care of him. The worst part is I wish I could help her. She gets really tired being up for so long with him." This year has started out well for Bamforth and the Wildcats. With the season now going strong, Bamforth has found his stride, both as a shooting guard and a father. Comment on this story at wsusignpost.corn. Webb entered his senior season as one of the top linebackers in the conference and was named to the Big Sky Preseason All-Conference. Webb, like Raught, has been playing football for 12 years, four of which were dedicated to WSU, and said he hopes to continue playing in the NFL. Webb was a member of Head Coach Ron McBride's first WSU recruiting class, signing in 2005 and enrolling in 2008. Webb has been a part of many successful seasons as a Wildcat. With one Big Sky Conference championship and two playoff appearances, Webb said he is ending the season with a sense of accomplishment. "It was a great experience playing for all coaches," Webb said, "especially playing for Coach Swan, who has coached me all four years and in two different position. He has taught me everything I know." As the year is coming to an end, Webb said he has worked hard both on and off the field to keep his GPA high. Webb will be graduating in the spring with a bachelor's degree in business administration with a focus in management. He said he will miss a lot of things about playing football, but some things won't be missed. "I will miss the friendships I have made and playing and traveling with the team," Webb said. "I definitely will not miss the hard practices and the offseason workouts." Raught and Webb are just two of many senior athletes whose college seasons have come to an end but are looking ahead. WSU football has 11 seniors graduating this semester. ternational Airport, helps in training employees to use the kiosks. Prior to the students' research, she said she had not known about the full-service kiosks, but believes they would be beneficial. "I believe they would cut down in-line wait times, helping the airport process passengers through the TSA check point . . . (causing) less of a rush of people at once," Montgomery said. Although she said she would be interested to see pilot testing for the full-service kiosks, Montgomery noted that "there are government restrictions that prevent airlines from allowing passengers to have access to the baggage tags or baggage-tag printers." Stephen Hill, the professor for the course, said this project was "definitely unique." "I don't have many students traveling halfway around the world for the weekend," Hill said. Although Hill said the goal of the project is not to provide consultation for organizations, he said he hopes the group will be able to "pass (the results) on . . . you never know, it could be implemented down the road." Two other students who are credited for contributing to the research are Jordan Shurtleff and Mike Grondel. attest he is one of the nicest, most down-to-earth people I've ever met. The first time I had to interview Lillard was over the summer, and I was amazed at what a nice guy he was. I had set up a time to interview him over the phone, but wasn't able to get a hold of him the first time because he'd gotten busy and forgotten that I was going to call then. When he called me back, I was blown away at how nice and accommodating he was. He apologized thoroughly for missing the call and then talked to me as if I was a friend that he'd known for years. So, if anyone else thinks Lillard is cocky or overrated, don't worry, Damian, I've got your back.

Notations continued from page 7 Following the win against USU, I saw another example of how classy Lillard is. The post-game press conference was packed with reporters from many newspapers across the state. Multiple times, people tried to get Lillard to say that WSU was the best team in the state, but he didn't take the opportunity to brag or say that WSU was better than any other school. All he said was that the team this year can compete with anyone. Anyone who follows Lillard on Twitter probably knows he seems like a classy guy. He constantly tweets about being thankful for what you have and working hard to achieve goals, while some people may put up a front on Twitter and act differently than they do in real life.

According to Tribe, Delta's current process involves three ways a person can check in and weigh their baggage. Two of those ways, checking in online or at a kiosk, require a person to weigh their baggage in a separate step of the process. The third option allows a passenger to have an airline employee check in and weigh the baggage. Through data provided by Delta, Tribe found that 86 percent of passengers utilize the kiosks over checking in online or through an airport employee.
