New Orleans Saints Tickets
The New Orleans Saints made a huge move in the middle of the season last year when they fired their head coach, Rob Ryan and replaced him with newbie Dennis Allen. Even under the direction of a new coach, the Saints didn't make it into postseason play for the second season in a row. Drew Brees and company are looking for a big turnaround and more importantly, a chance at the playoffs. The Saints wide receiver, Marques Colston and veteran quarterback, Drew Brees are returning to the Saints offensive end, giving the Black & Gold a great opportunity to rise to the top of a wide-open NFC South. Few venues in sports offer the excitement and atmosphere of the Superdome, so don't hesitate to secure your New Orleans Saints tickets!

New Orleans Saints News And Updates
As the New Orleans Saints make changes during the offseason, they might find some relief in their salary cap. Months ago, Brandon Browner announced that he would be leaving the Saints, and he subsequently signed with the Seahawks. Although it has been three months since his official release, the Saints now will see the relief in their books. By having it a post-June 1 release order, they have the choice to push half of the remaining salary cap burden to the 2017 season instead. This helps them to have a bit of breathing space money wise to bring in some free agents before next season. Fans can already purchase tickets to see the Saints in action, with prices starting at $18.

The New Orleans Saints have had ups and downs, but the season is nearly at an end. They did not end up going to the postseason, but they played hard and provided plenty of excitement for fans. While it is not the Saints' final game of the season, their matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars on December 27th will be their last home game. Come out and see the Saints off until next year. Tickets are still available starting as low as $38. After this, the Saints are travelling to Atlanta to play their last game of the entire year against the Atlanta Falcons. Even though it is not in New Orleans, be sure to catch that match as well.
12/17/15 - The end of the NFL season is near and all teams are scrambling to get in as many wins as possible for their chance to make it to postseason play. The New Orleans Saints are no exception to this, but the likelihood of the organization making it into the playoffs is very small. Currently they are sitting at a 5-8 losing record and haven't had the best luck on the field. Last week, the Saints scraped with everything they had to defeat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and end their four-game losing streak. Get your tickets today to see if they are able to finish the season off on a good note.
12/10/15 - Despite being last in their division, and losing their last four matchups, the New Orleans Saints are still giving fans something to cheer for. In their most recent game, they managed to score an impressive 38 points, which is more than most of their recent opponents have been scoring. Unfortunately, the Saints were playing against the top team in the entire league, the Carolina Panthers, who are still undefeated. Even though their performance would likely have dominated any other team in the league, the Saints fell just short with a final score of 41-38. They will be hosting the Detroit Lions on December 21st. Tickets start as low as $32.
12/3/15 - With the season reaching its final days, New Orleans Saints fans are wondering if their team will reach the same heights they did in October before the year ends. Following their three-game winning streak, the Saints have lost three consecutive matches. Two of these games were on away fields, however, so they may be in for a comeback when they return to New Orleans on December 6th. The Saints will be hosting the Carolina Panthers, who remain undefeated. They will need all the support they can get. Get your tickets for as little as $53, and come out to see if the Saints have what it takes to stand up and dethrone the Panthers.
11/26/15 - After pulling even with three straight wins, the New Orleans Saints have backslid with back-to-back losses. They fell to the Titans in Week 9 before getting drubbed on the road in Washington, 47-14. Drew Brees had a tough outing, throwing as many picks as he did TDs. Kirk Cousins didn't make life any easier, putting up 324 yards and four touchdowns with no turnovers. Rob Ryan's team has a tall task in front of them if they're to climb back into the postseason conversation, and the first item of business is a date with the Houston Texans. Get your tickets for NRG Stadium today with prices starting at $114 apiece!
11/19/15 - It seems the New Orleans Saints have not managed to shake their slump quite yet. It has now been two games since their last win. Most recently, the Saints faced the Washington Redskins and it was one of their roughest losses yet. The final score came to 14-47. They are in the number four position for the NFC Southern Division and only three home games remain, all of which being in December. The Saints need the support of their fans if they are going to turn this streak around before the season winds down. Tickets for December 6th's match against the Carolina Panthers are available starting at just $56. Come cheer them to victory.
11/12/15 - The New Orleans Saints have had to come back from an extremely rough start to their season. Before their game last week against the Tennessee Titans, the Saints were on a much needed three-game winning streak. During the game against the Titans, both teams were playing well enough to keep up with each other. The first half ended with the Saints leading 21-17. However, they weren't able to hang onto that lead for long and both teams were forced into overtime play where the Titans scored the winning touchdown against the Saints. See if the Saints can come back from their devastating loss when they take on the Washington Redskins on November 15.
11/5/15 - It was an old-fashioned shootout at the Superdome when the New Orleans Saints took on the New York Giants last Sunday. The teams combined for 101 points, with NO prevailing in the end 52-49. Veteran QB Drew Brees turned back the clock with a 505-yard performance that included a record-tying seven touchdown passes, besting Eli Manning's 350-yard, six-TD game. The Saints led by a score for most of the afternoon, though NY took a late 49-42 lead with seven minutes remaining. Brees' final TD pass and a 50-yard FG from Kai Forbath sealed the deal as New Orleans jumped to 4-4 overall. Get your seats for Titans vs. Saints this weekend starting at $37!
10/29/15 - Winning two in a row has the New Orleans Saints in a much better place than they were after Week 5, but a 3-4 record won't get it done in a highly-competitive NFC South. The Panthers and Falcons are 6-0 and 6-1 respectively, holding serve in a division that may be the toughest in the National Football Conference in light of the West's unexpected drop-off. The Saints will need to maximize the next portion of their schedule, as they face Tennessee, Washington and Houston before squaring off with Carolina in Week 13. First up is the Giants at home, and the action kicks off this Sunday. Get your Superdome tickets starting at $62!
10/22/15 - The New Orleans Saints have done the impossible. The team with only a single win to their name has managed to strip the Atlanta Falcons of their undefeated status. On October 15th, the Saints managed to start out incredibly strong by shutting the Falcons out while scoring 14 points in the first quarter. The Falcons simply never recovered from that initial setback and the final score came to 21-31. If the Saints are able to go toe to toe with a team like the Falcons, it is clear that they can hold their own with the best. Where will the Saints' newfound confidence take them next? Secure your spot for their next home game on November 1st to find out.
10/15/15 - Last week, the New Orleans Saints ended their losing streak and got on the board. This week, they lost again, but fans should not be worried. It is unfortunate that the Saints scored less in this game than any other this season, but some facts need to be taken into consideration. It was an away game, and the Philadelphia Eagles are a strong team. The Saints now have the opportunity to return to their own field, but they will be playing their toughest opponent yet: the Atlanta Hawks. The Saints have their work cut out for them. Will the home field advantage be enough to deal out the Hawks' first defeat of the season?
10/7/15 - The New Orleans Saints have officially earned their first victory of the season. They started out with a bit of a rough patch, but they performed much better in their most recent match, on October 4th, when the Saints hosted the Dallas Cowboys. They have actually improved in each game they played, but this week, the Saints finally took a win with a final score of 20-26. Every other match has been an away game, which is a difficult situation to adapt to. This pattern will continue until November 8th, when the Saints will have back-to-back home matches. Be sure to get your tickets now. You can secure your spot in the stands of their next game for $52.
9/30/15 - The New Orleans Saints have yet to win this season after losing against the Panthers on the 27th. Luke McCown started at quarterback with Drew Brees out due to injury and completed 31 of 38 passes for a total of 310 yards. The game marked the first injury that has forced Brees to miss a game since he became a Saint in 2006. The game started close, with the two teams headed into the locker rooms for half time tied 10-10. However, the Panthers outscored the Saints in the third and fourth quarter to take the win. The Saints next play the cowboys on October 4 at home, with tickets available starting at $71.
9/24/15 - For the first time this season, the New Orleans Saints were able to play on their own field. They managed to score the exact same number of points as their previous game, but their defensive performance was much improved. While the Arizona Cardinals managed to score 31 points off the Saints, this week the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were only able to score 26. Unfortunately, the Saints were unable to win either match, but they were close this time. If they continue to improve, they are going to start dominating their matchups. The Saints now travel to Carolina to take on the Panthers, but they will return on October 4th to host the Dallas Cowboys. A few tickets for the much-anticipated game are still available starting at $110.
9/16/15 - After stumbling in Week 1 on the road, the New Orleans Saints are eager to get back to the Superdome for some good old fashioned home cookin'. No doubt Saints fans will be live and loud when their team kicks off 2015 in N'awlins, as they host the Tampa Bay Bucs and rookie quarterback Jameis Winston. The young QB was less than stellar in his initial outing—will he have what it takes to score in New Orleans? With the memory of three Carson Palmer TD passes fresh in their minds, you can be sure the black-and-gold defense will have other ideas when both teams take the field. Get your tickets for Saints vs. Bucs on 9/20 and Saints at Panthers on 9/27, on sale now!
9/9/15 - As the New Orleans Saints prepare for their opening game against the Cardinals on Sunday, all eyes are on the injured list to see whether the Saints will be firing on all cylinders. The good news is that Tim Hightower had a full practice on Thursday after recovering from his knee injury. However, Dannell Ellerbe, C.J. Spiller, Keenan Lewis, Davis Tull, Jairus Byrd, and Tim Hightower did not practice due to their various injuries. The Saints have also announced their three new captains for the season. Zach Strief and Drew Brees return as offensive captains, and Ben Watson was added as a special third captain. Defensive captains will be Cam Jordan and Brandon Browner. You still have a chance to get tickets to see the game in Arizona on September 13 for as little as $3.
9/4/15 - In just over a week, the New Orleans Saints will go marching on to the University of Phoenix, as the NFL regular season kicks off for 2015. The Cardinals will be waiting for them in Week 1, pitting two of this year's most intriguing teams against one another in their respective openers. The Saints weren't able to pull out a victory in preseason warm-ups, falling by small margins to the Ravens and Patriots before slipping up against the Texans and Packers. Regardless, the games truly take on meaning beginning now, and New Orleans is hungry for another crack at the postseason after a disappointing finish in 2014. Secure your tickets now for Saints vs. Cardinals in Arizona on 9/13! You can be there in-person starting at just $36 if you act quickly!
8/25/15 - Drew Brees is more than accustomed to getting pressure from the blitz or pass rush defense, but at team practice this week, it was his own defensive line that was giving him trouble. The New Orleans Saints were called out by their own coach for being weak at their preseason game against the Patriots earlier in the week, but it seems as if the players heard the message. Both Brees and backup quarterback Ryan Griffin were sacked a number of times, which always makes for exciting play. We are excited to see if that practice pays off at this weekend's gagme against the Texans. The Sunday, Aug. 30 game is scheduled to take place at Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans. Tickets are on sale now for just $10 and up!
8/20/15 - The New Orleans Saints were unable to rally to beat the Baltimore Ravens on their first preseason game on Thursday, August 13. This marked the first time the Saints have lost their preseason opener since 2010. Drew Brees sat out the game. The Ravens got a head start; however, the Saints rallied back and seemed as though they were going to win after Marcus Murphy drew them ahead with two minutes left in the game. Unfortunately, the Ravens' third-string quarterback scored with just two seconds left in the game. This week, the Saints are hosting the New England Patriots for shared practices in preparation for their game on Saturday, August 22. Tickets remain available for the home preseason opener, with prices starting at just $19.
8/7/15 - Even after all these years, for Drew Brees, hitting Marques Colston in the backfield is "like riding a bike". The veteran receiver linked up with the 10th-year receiver in a short amount of time shared together on the practice field this past weekend, completing a pair of long passes as part of a touchdown drive. The completions included a tough pass in traffic on third down, plus the TD pass on an end zone fade. The 32-year-old Colston had missed minicamp with an injury which was not specified by the team, but he looks to be regaining his form quickly—crucial for the New Orleans Saints as the preseason approaches. Come to the Superdome on 8/22 for the preseason home opener versus the Patriots! Tickets are available now from $24.
7/29/15 - The New Orleans Saints have gone through major changes this last year. There is no saying how they will perform. Outside linebacker Junior Galette left the team, so there is room for another defensive player to step up and make a name for himself. With training camp getting started, there are many potential players to fill that role. Many fans think the next big Galette is going to be Akiem Hicks. Still, fans are going to have to wait another two weeks for the preseason to kick off to know for sure. The Saints are trying to figure out how their new lineup is going to work before taking the field. Their home opener will be on August 22nd, against the New England Patriots. Tickets start at $23.
7/15/15 - The New Orleans Saints have been able to rely on the talented arm of their quarterback, Drew Brees. However, is it time for the Saints to start running the ball more frequently rather than depending on a full pass game? One of the biggest reasons for possibly switching to a heavier running game is due to the huge loss of receiving target, Jimmy Graham, who was traded to the Seattle Seahawks during the offseason. The Saints have steady and skilled players to carry the ball and head up their offense including, Mark Ingram, Khiry Robinson, and C.J. Spiller. Watch the New Orleans Saints live and see what moves they make offensively for the 2015 season. They face off against the New England Patriots on August 22 and tickets start at $19.
7/2/15 - Like many of the NFL franchises, the New Orleans Saints have released their schedule for the 2015 Training Camp this week. There will be 34 practices open and free to the public, giving fans plenty of opportunities to see the new roster in action. On July 29, the players will report for meetings and physicals to kick of camp. There will be practices every day, with a few off days and preseason games, up until August 28. In preparation for the upcoming season, NOLA.com is ranking the top 20 players on the team, announcing one per day. So far, they have announced 20, David Hawthorne; 19, Stephone Anthony; and 18, Khiry Robinson. You can already get your tickets for preseason and regular season games, with prices starting at $14.
6/17/15 - The New Orleans Saints had their mandatory minicamp this week, and they invited three players to try out for the roster. Chris Highland, a long-snapper, Chase Tenpenny, a punter, and Matt James, a receiver, showed up for their chance to join the team. James will have the best chance, as the Saints' Justin Drescher and Thomas Morstead already have a solid hold on the punter and long-snapper position. Marques Colston chose to sit out during the practice to rest and manage "mileage," rather than a specific injury. Backup quarterback Ryan Griffith also missed the open practice, most likely due to an attack that left him with stitches earlier in the month. However, he practiced as normal on Tuesday. Fans can already get tickets for the upcoming season, with prices starting at $15.
6/3/15 - This week, the New Orleans Saints had the sixth of 10 allowed OTAs. Most players attended, other than the few excused from the practice. There were others who attended but did not partake in any of the on-field activities as a preventative measure. These included Mark Ingram, Junior Galette, Marques Colston, Glenn Foster, Broderick Bunkley, Damian Swann, and Jack Tabb. There was another spectator for the practice making headlines: Jermaine Gresham. His visit has started rumors that the team may be looking to sign him as a way to add depth to the tight end position. It is not all work at these practices; to add a little fun, several offensive and defensive lineman took a stab at being a punt returner/catcher to the amusement of their teammates. Tickets to the 2015 season are on sale, starting at $11.
5/8/15 - The New Orleans Saints has added 22 rookie players to their roster after the NFL draft. Nine of these players were drafted, with another 13 signed as undrafted free agents. They are expected to invite more to the rookie minicamp in mid-May to see who will have a chance to earn a spot in the team's regular season roster. Players expected to be present include Sam Wren, Justin Anderson, Charles Lovett, Rob Hollomon, Adam Keller, Adam Redden, Corey Cooper, Steve Edmond, and Taylor Belsterling. While the rookies look to earn a place on the roster and veterans demonstrate their value to the team, fans can go ahead and pick up their tickets for the coming season. The first game will be in Baltimore against the Ravens on August 13, with prices starting at $12.
4/23/15 - Last season did not pan out quite as the New Orleans Saints had hoped, as they struggled to a 7-9 record in the NFC South, finishing behind Carolina and enduring their first year outside of the playoff field since 2012. Drew Brees and his crew figure to return strong in 2015 however, as the Saints kick off the regular season on the road at the Arizona Cardinals. Other scheduling highlights include Week 4 when Tony Romo and the Dallas Cowboys come to town, Week 7 at Andrew Luck's Indianapolis Colts, and Week 15 when New Orleans will host "Megatron" Calvin Johnson and the Detroit Lions. Seats are available for these and many other great games in the upcoming 2015 NFL season, so claim your tickets today!
2014-2015 Season
12/25/14 - The New Orleans Saints had to win last week's game against the Falcons to have a chance to stay in the race for the playoffs, and they just didn't make it. The Saints came out strong in the first quarter with a touchdown, but the Falcons kept the pressure on. At the end of the third quarter, the score was 20-7. The Saints didn't score again until the fourth quarter, and they just couldn't make up the deficit. The final score stood at 30-14, and the Saints' hopes of making the playoffs were crushed. The Saints hope to finish the season on a positive note when they travel to Tampa Bay to meet the Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium. It's their pride on the line.
12/17/14 - After Monday night's win against the Bears, the New Orleans Saints are alone in 1st place in the NFC Southern Division. This doesn't get them automatically in the playoffs. They still have to win the final two games of the season, the first one against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. The Saints are the favorites, and it will be a key game for them. Although the match-up is fairly even between the two teams, the Saints have the edge in third-down conversions at 48%, which leads the league. They also control the clock more effectively, ranking 9th in the league in average time of possession. If you're a Saints fan, don't miss this final home game before the playoff and get your tickets now. The Saints have the chance to host the wild card game, but they have to be on top of their game.
12/11/14 - The New Orleans Saints are currently tied with the Atlanta Falcons for first in the NFC South division. They are currently sporting a 5-8 record, and they got dominated in their last outing against the Carolina Panthers. The final score ended up being 10-41. In their tough loss, Drew Brees went on to throw for 235 yards and had 1 touchdown. That was pretty much the only top performer for them, and their defense is what really hindered their ability to do anything substantial. They will have to make some adjustments on defense if they want to secure the top spot in the division. Next up for them is a game against the Chicago Bears. Tickets for it can be bought now for $27.
12/4/14 - The New Orleans Saints entered the season as a favorite to go to the Super Bowl in the NFC. Now, at 2nd in their division, they face the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. Both teams need the win, but the Saints have the upper hand. They won the first time these teams met earlier in the season, right before Halloween. If Carolina doesn't win the game, they have no hope of making it to the playoffs, so they're going to be strong. The Saints' quarterback, Drew Brees ranks first in completion percentage and second in passing yards, but he has had some off weeks. The Saints are coming off a win against the Pittsburgh Steelers from last. Get your tickets to the Saints' home game, to watch this fierce battle on Sunday.
11/25/14 - The New Orleans Saints took on the Cincinnati Bengals last weekend, and things didn't go their way. They ended up losing 10-27, and they will really need to adjust things going forward. In their loss, Drew Brees went on to throw for 255 yards and only had 1 touchdown. He couldn't find the big plays down the stretch, which hurt his team in the end. The Saints' defense let running back Jeremy Hill rush for 152 yards, which hindered their ability to get their offense back out on the field. Up next for them is a must-win game with the Baltimore Ravens. They will need to contain Joe Flacco in order to come out with the win. Tickets for the game can be bought for $43.
11/17/14 - The New Orleans Saints dropped their second straight at home, losing to the Cincinnati Bengals 27-10. Despite the loss and their 4-6 overall record, the Saints still find themselves tied with the Atlanta Falcons for the best record in the NFC South. However, based on head-to-head competition, Atlanta holds the edge in the all-important playoff standings after week #11. The Saints have six games remaining in the season, three at home in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. Monday night's home game brings the 6-4 Baltimore Ravens to town, who will be coming in rested after a bye week. The Ravens are on the bubble in the AFC playoff picture, so will be coming in hungry for a win. Monday Night Football on national television is always an "event"-get in on the excitement and buy your tickets today, with prices from $56!
11/13/14 - At 4-5 after 10 weeks in the NFL season, the New Orleans Saints are 1st in the NFC Southern Division. They lost their last game against the San Francisco 49ers, but it was lost in overtime when the 49ers scored a 3-point field goal to win. This coming Sunday, the Saints host the Cincinnati Bengals, who sit 2nd in the AFC Northern Division. The Saints are the favorite team and have good odds. The Bengals rushing defense is one of the worst in the league, and the Saints have a great rushing offense. The Saints are focused on making the playoffs, so they are going to work hard. You can get tickets for this game and cheer your home team on when you come out to the stadium.
11/6/14 - There will soon be some new faces in the New Orleans Saints starting lineup, with fullback Austin Johnson continuing to nurse an injured knee. Johnson, who was injured when the Saints played the Green Bay Packers, was just placed on injured reserve, effectively ending his season. On Monday, November 3, the Saints invited seven players to try out for the team, including defensive backs Ray Agnew, Makom Bronson and Stan McKay, fullbacks Toben Opurum and Michael Zordich, and safetys Bacarri Rambo and Brandon Taylor. On Tuesday, the Saints announced they had inked a deal with Zordich. Next up on the Saints schedule is the San Francisco 49ers. They'll play in New Orleans on Sunday, November 9 as the Saints attempt to remain in first place in the NFC South. Tickets for Sunday's game are still available, beginning at $124.
10/30/14 - With a 3-4 record, the New Orleans Saints are not living up to expectations to be among the top Super Bowl contenders of the 2014 season. Last Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers was quite impressive as the Saints came alive in the second half of the game earning 28 points in the third and fourth quarters for a final score of 23-44. However, in their upcoming game against the Carolina Panthers, it is predicted the New Orleans may struggle because they do not play well on the road. Although Carolina does not have the stats that New Orleans does, the Saints just don't play as effectively in an outdoor stadium. They also just played on Sunday, and with a Thursday night game, their bodies may not have time to recover before the game against the Panthers.
10/20/14 – The Saints are once again favored to win at home; this time, in a Sunday Night football showdown with the Green Bay Packers. Averaging $279 to see the Rodgers vs. Brees matchup, ticket prices are fourth most expensive this week.
10/15/14 – Following their bye week, the Saints are headed to Detroit to take on the Lions who are currently atop the NFC North. The Week 7 matchup at Ford Field is averaging $163, one of the cheaper matchups in the league. Reggie Bush will return against his former squad after being held out of Sunday's game as a precaution.
10/10/14 - After a much needed win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week, the New Orleans Saints are now 2-3 and on a bye week. The Saints narrowly defeated Tampa Bay in overtime 37-31 with a come from behind touchdown. Despite three interceptions thrown by Drew Brees, the running backs carried the game. Khiry Robinson made the game winning touchdown and Pierre Thomas delivered on screen plays. This victory was the first divisional game win for the Saints, but continued a bad trend of injuries. Tight end Jimmy Graham suffered a shoulder injury at the game, which was reported as "not serious." Since then the Saints have acquired and signed tight end Tom Crabtree. The Saints next play the Detroit Lions on the road at Ford Field on October 19, 2014.
10/3/14 - Drew Brees and the Saints have not been on top of their game this year, but that's largely been the case away from home. In fact, the Saints won their only home game in Week 3 over the Vikings, but have struggled on the road, as usual. They come home this week to play a struggling Tampa Bay team. Even with a divisional matchup, Saints tickets are the least expensive for any remaining home game on the secondary market, according to Razorgator.

Next up on the New Orleans Saints schedule is Tampa Bay at home in a division rivalry game. The Saints' defense will look to rebound and live up to high expectations coming into the 2014 season. Currently ranked 29th in the NFL in yards allowed, there is nowhere to go but up.

9/24/14 - The 2014 NFL season has not gone the way the New Orleans Saints had figured it would dropping their first two contests before finally picking up a win in their home opener this past Sunday over the struggling Minnesota Vikings. New Orleans will once again head out on the road to pay visit to the Dallas Cowboys as Saint tickets are going for just over $230 on average.
9/22/14 - Sunday might not have been the prettiest game of Drew Brees' career but it is certainly one that he will be comfortable with. In the game against the Minnesota Vikings Brees was able to put his team on his back and get New Orleans into the win column for the first time this season. Brees will return to his hometown of Dallas to play the Cowboys at AT&T Stadium with Saints tickets going for the second most of any road game left on their schedule according to Razorgator at $256.
9/8/14 - Heading into their game Sunday with the Atlanta Falcons people knew that the two teams were going to put up some big offensive numbers with Matt Ryan and New Orleans Saints QB Drew Brees leading their respective teams. New Orleans found themselves on the losing end of a back and forth game that went into overtime and saw the Falcons sneak by with a victory . New Orleans will now head to Cleveland before returning to the Mercedes Benz Superdome for their home opener against the Vikings which is going for $250 on average according to RazorGator for Saints tickets.
9/8/14 - The New Orleans Saints may have lost their Week 1 battle against the Atlanta Falcons, but their offense certainly lit up the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. Drew Brees threw for 333 yards, while Mark Ingram scored twice and rookie wide receiver Brandin Cooks caught for 77 yards and a touchdown. Rob Ryan's defense will shake off some summer rust and come roaring back against the Cleveland Browns this Sunday for what should be another thriller. Score New Orleans Saints tickets at FirstEnergy Stadium for just $50 and watch Brees and Co. show Cleveland what a real gun show is!
9/3/14 - Two of the most high-powered offenses in the league will clash when Drew Brees and the Saints travel to Atlanta to face Matt Ryan and the Falcons on Sunday. According to RazorGator, New Orleans Saints tickets for this game have dropped by 6% in the past week to now average $252, making it the most expensive game at the Georgia Dome this season.

Although he's been throwing passes with Kenny Stills and ran with corner Champ Bailey, this means the QB will likely stay sidelined during the team's second preseason game, this Friday against Tennessee. On the upside, running back Pierre Thomas made his return to practice yesterday, after being held out of New Orlean's Week 1 exhibition match. See who takes the field this time with New Orleans Saints tickets. Pay $26 to get into Mercedez-Benz Superdome on Aug. 15 and enjoy football under Friday night lights.
7/30/14 - The New Orleans Saints had a disappointing finish to their season last year. But for most of the year they looked like real Super Bowl contenders, and only got better in the offseason. With the Jimmy Graham contract dispute behind them, the team is ready for the regular season to start. It's no surprise that the Saints tickets are one of the higher averages in the league with RazorGator reporting them as having an average price of $240 in 2014.
7/23/14 - After a long and tenuous offseason filled with tough negotiations the New Orleans Saints were able to lock up Drew Brees favorite target in pass catching tight end Jimmy Graham to a 4 year $40 million deal. With Graham in tow New Orleans will have an explosive offense for years to come which is why RazorGator reports them as having an average price of $240 for Saints tickets in 2014.
7/17/14 - In recent years the New Orleans Saints have developed quite a rivalry with the Atlanta Falcons who despite having an off 2013 are a very dangerous team. New Orleans will open the season against the Falcons on September 7th on the road at the Georgia Dome which according to RazorGator is averaging $201 but when they play at the Superdome on December 21st Saints tickets will be more than double at an average price of $417.
7/10/14 - The New Orleans Saints are on of the top franchises in the National Football League due in large part to their great leadership at the head coach and quarterback positions by Sean Payton and Drew Brees respectively. This has resulted in Saints tickets averaging $255 for the season with their priciest game coming against MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers according to RazorGator at $342 with a Get-in of $152.
7/8/14 - There is perhaps no team in the NFL that has a more feared and explosive offense than the New Orleans Saints. Led by quarterback Drew Brees the Saints have become the model for new age offenses with hybrid TE Jimmy Graham, WR Marques Colston and rookie First Round pick pass catcher Brandin Cooks which have led to Saints tickets averaging slightly below $260 according to RazorGator for the 2014 season.
7/7/14 – Who Dat Nation, what do you think of the Jimmy Graham ruling? There was some backlash to decision that officially tagged Graham as a tight end, including sentiments from future Hall of Fame TE Tony Gonzalez, who called for an overhaul of the NFL salary system in favor of rewarding via production as opposed to position. It is unclear whether Graham will appeal the decision at this point, but the New Orleans Saints have until the July 15 deadline to sign multiyear contracts to reach a resolution. In one month you can watch the Beasts of the Bayou take the field for their first preseason match of the year. Score New Orleans Saints tickets for their Aug 8 at St. Louis Rams game at an unbelievably low $2 get-in price.
7/1/14 – New Orleans Saints fans are no doubt curious of the final ruling in the Jimmy Graham wide receiver/tight end case, but you needn't bite your nails any longer—a decision will be made on July 3. Graham will be back on the field following his arbitration hearing, so gear up for training camp at the end of the month to see the Saints' offense in full force! See them really take heel in September with New Orleans Saints tickets and judge for yourself where Graham lines up most!
6/24/14 – The New Orleans Saints team website recently conducted a poll on the one regular season game fans are most excited to attend this season. Can you guess it? New Orleans' Nov 9 home game against the San Francisco 49ers is the most sought-after ticket, amassing 39% of the vote. The get-in price for this fan-favorite NFC matchup starts at $126. The regular season opener against archrival Falcons came in second, with 19% of vote. For almost half that price, you can venture out to Atlanta and see NO take on the Dirty Birds for another bitter showdown; spend as little as $58 for the Sunday, 9/7, game at the Georgia Dome. What's your favorite game in the schedule above? Buy New Orleans Saints tickets today and lock-in seats for the faceoff
are most excited to attend!
6/17/14- Mandatory minicamps are already underway, and the New Orleans Saints have still failed to resolve their principal problem of the offseason. The franchise and Jimmy Graham have officially begun the arbitration period in which the question: "tight end or wide receiver?" will be scrutinized. The NFLPA argues Graham should be tagged as WR because that's where he lines up 67% of the time ($12.3 million salary cap), while the NFL argues for TE because he attends the position meetings ($7 million salary cap). See what the arbitrator decides after the two-day hearing, but fans only really care that Graham is productive on the gridiron no matter where he lines up! Buy your New Orleans Saints tickets now and see the multi-faceted beast in action.
6/10/14- Want an up-close look at your Bayou Boys? The New Orleans Saints open up their three-day mini-camp today, and all practices are open for free (from 11-1:20am) to the public at the Metairie facility. Watch as the crowded (
a bad thing) cornerback battle kicks off between Keenan Lewis, Patrick Robinson, Champ Bailey, Corey White and rookie Stanley Jean-Baptiste.

6/2/14 - Are you ready to welcome back another Pro Bowler? The New Orleans Saints are chalking up a deal and look to lock up Jonathan Goodwin, after three years on the 49ers, by Tuesday. On the more troubling end, New Orleans' touted free agent acquisition, Jairus Byrd, will undergo back surgery later this week to address a nagging spinal disc problem. Luckily, the safety is only expected to be out until training camp. Make sure to catch both Goodwin's and Byrd's return to the field this year with New Orleans Saints tickets!
5/27/14 - Over the weekend, New Orleans Saints fans voted for their favorite offseason addition to the 2014 squad. The people spoke and hailed Jairus Byrd as their favorite new Saints player. The former Buffalo Bills safety was followed in the polls by first round draft pick Brandin Cooks (Oregon State, receiver) and Champ Bailey (cornerback), acquired from the Denver Broncos. You picked them, now see them in action! The newbies are shaping up in OTAs during spring, but watch them hit the ground running this summer with
New Orleans Saints tickets
5/19/14 - With Draft Day and rookie camp come and gone, the New Orleans Saints have made some solid roster moves. The organization has signed undrafted rookies WR Steve Hull and OLB Cheta Ozougwu, as well as veterans RB Derrick Strozier and OL Thomas Welch. Aside from roster offers, New Orleans has offered their Mercedes Benz Superdome up for a record 11th Super Bowl bid (in February 2018). The party city is 10-for-10 in SB bids and is a favorite to score on their latest proposal. This franchise has been busy in the offseason, see them get down to business with 2014 New Orleans Saints tickets!
5/12/14 - The New Orleans Saints had six picks in the 2014 Draft, with the universal consensus being half of the players are great while the other half are questionable. Their No. 20 first round pick is offensive Swiss army knife Brandin Cooks, followed by the second round pick: coveted CB Stanley Jean-Baptiste. Perhaps more exciting are the 17 undrafted free agents that signed with the club, highlighted by 6'6" receiver Brandon Coleman and 302 lb. center Matthew Armstrong. With a dynamic incoming class, the future looks bright for this Louisiana team. Score 2014 New Orleans Saints tickets and see the young talent develop in person!
4/16/14 - The New Orleans Saints will take on three AFC foes in preseason 2014. New Orleans will kick things off on the road when they pay a visit to the St. Louis Rams and their former defensive coordinator Gregg Williams in Week 1 (Aug 7-10). Catch the Saints in the Mercedes Benz Superdome for their home opener against the Tennessee Titans in Week 2 (Aug 14-18)—these two often meet for exhibition games, and are locked in their series at 14-14-1. Week 3 offers an even bigger matchup, when Drew Brees and company take on Andrew Luck and the Indianapolis Colts during primetime on Saturday, Aug 23. The Saints may be behind the Colts where preseason series is concerned, but no one can forget their epic Super Bowl XLIV victory over Indy. The only other game with a set date falls on Aug 28 when they take on the Baltimore Ravens; New Orleans Saints tickets start at $90 for this final Week 4 matchup.
While the Saints will not face the Seattle Seahawks, Denver Broncos, or New England Patriots in the 2014 regular season, the New Orleans Saints schedule still boasts some high-profile opponents. The most in-demand game will be Brees vs. Rodgers when the Green Bay Packers visit Mercedes-Benz Superdome (avg. $332) in what is sure to be a shootout. While the Saints will not march to Lambeau Field for a cold-weather game, they will face Chicago on a Monday night in late December and Pittsburgh in late November. The cheapest games in NOLA is against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (avg. $187), Cincinnati Bengals (avg. $215), and Minnesota Vikings (avg. $223). In general, Saints tickets are priced comparable to last year, averaging $269 immediately following the release of the 2014 NFL schedule.
2013-2014 Season
2/11/14 – After an 11-5 finish in the 2013 regular season, the Saints have to be feeling pretty optimistic about their 2014 campaign. Aside from their NFC South rivals, the New Orleans Saints schedule features the San Francisco 49ers, Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings, Baltimore Ravens, and Cincinnati Bengals at home. An 8-0 record at Mercedes Benz Superdome is not out of the question for a team that ended its season last year in the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs against the Seattle Seahawks 23-15. Drew Brees and Co. will not face the Seahawks or the Patriots, whom they fell to in 2013; in addition there will be no meeting against AFC champion Denver Broncos.
1/6/14 - The New Orleans Saints quieted cynics when they achieved their first road playoff win in franchise history, last Saturday over the Philadelphia Eagles. The Saints will need to bring their fiercest road rage when they collide with the Seahawks at the most formidable stadium in the league, CenturyLink Field, in the NFC Divisional round. New Orleans Saints tickets are $160 to be there Saturday when Drew Brees seeks revenge!
12/30/13 - The New Orleans Saints clinched a Wild Card berth after crushing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 42-17, on Sunday. After losing the division title to the Carolina Panthers two weeks ago, the Saints are now the No. 6 seed in the AFC, and will take on the rising Philadelphia Eagles this Saturday night in the first round of playoffs.The Saints are perfect at home in the Big Easy, but Sean Payton and company will have to take the show on the road with hopes of improving their 3-5 away game record against the No. 3 seeds at Lincoln Financial Field. Both teams boast two of the best offenses in the NFL, but the Saints have an advantage over Philly, with a veteran quarterback at the helm and a solid fourth-ranked defense. New Orleans Saints playoff tickets start at $128 and average at $283 to see the prolific Drew Brees take on the fresh-faced Nick Foles in one of the most anticipated match-ups of Wild Card weekend!
12/23/13 - The New Orleans Saints were rocked on the road again, losing 13-17 to the relentless Carolina Panthers on Sunday. In a hard-fought battle, New Orleans' immense effort crumbled when Cam Newton launched a game-winning touchdown pass with less than a minute on the clock, propelling the Panthers to the top of the NFC South. Though the defeat was gut-wrenching, New Orleans can clinch a playoff spot by beating the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at home this Sunday—and if Carolina loses to Atlanta in Week 17, the Saints will be crowned division kings. New Orleans Saints tickets start at $179 to get into the Superdome for the last regular season game!
12/16/13 - The New Orleans Saints were denied clinching a playoff berth this Sunday, when the St. Louis Rams defeated them 16-27. New Orleans got off to a shaky start and the Rams never let up, exposing their weaknesses on the road: Drew Brees threw interceptions on the first two possessions and was relentlessly pummeled by Ram's DE Robert Quinn, prompting Sean Payton to bench LT Charles Brown. Next week, the Saints will go marching into Carolina to play hungry NFC South foes, the Panthers, for a chance to clinch the No.2 seed. New Orleans Saints tickets for their most crucial division game of December are hot, averaging at $251 and $61 to start.
12/9/13- In the Superdome, the Saints were safe from bone-chilling temperatures, but still managed to freeze the Carolina Panthers on their road to nine straight victories, with a dominating 31-13 Sunday night victory. The Saints move to first place in the NFC South, riding on the back of Drew Brees, who surpassed 50,000 total career passing yards in front of an adoring crowd. In the impressive win, the Saints became the first team to score over 24 points on Carolina's No. 1 defense this season, while their own defense relentlessly threw Cam Newton to the ground all game. The Saints are steam rolling into Week 15, and will next battle the St. Louis Rams. New Orleans Saints tickets are just $20 to get in and $92 on average.
12/3/13 - The New Orleans Saints were squashed by the Seattle Seahawks, 7-34, Monday night at CenturyLink Field. The Saints defense was no match for Russell Wilson in the pass or run game and the record-breaking booming crowd didn't make things any easier for Drew Brees, who snapped his 9 game MNF win-streak. The Saints haven't scored this low since Sean Payton first arrived, but if they brush off this blowout and get back to dominating, New Orleans could very well be back in Seattle to play the Hawks again, hopefully with a new game plan. Next up are the rising Carolina Panthers, who they will host Sunday night in the Superdome. New Orleans Saints tickets are in high demand, averaging $254 this Sunday.
11/25/13 - The New Orleans Saints defeated the Atlanta Falcons last Thursday (17-13), for another Drew Brees primetime victory. Though not a blowout, the Saints blew out both the Falcons' playoff hopes and chance at a winning season, thanks to QB's pair of touchdown passes to Benjamin Watson and Jimmy Graham. Next week is a
big game
between two playoff caliber teams: the Seattle Seahawks will host the Saints for a showdown between two NFL titans. New Orleans Saints tickets are easily the hottest of the week, at $484 on average.
11/19/13 - In what many considered to be a playoff preview, the New Orleans Saints bested the San Francisco 49ers, 23-20, and have seriously put their opposition's playoff hopes in jeopardy. The hard-fought win was graced by a roughing the passer call, which overturned Drew Brees' fumble, and kept the Saints alive for a game-winning field goal by Garrett Hartley in the last seconds. The Saints have a quick turnaround this week, pitted against the Atlanta Falcons this Thursday, a team that routed them in last year's Thursday night game. New Orleans Saints tickets start at $24 and average at $111 in the Georgia Dome rematch.
11/11/13 - The New Orleans Saints had a historically good night at the expense of the downtrodden Dallas Cowboys, setting the NFL record for most first downs in a single game (40), and a franchise record of 625 total yards in their 16th consecutive nighttime victory at home. Defensive coordinator Rob Ryan achieved some good old revenge over the team that fired him last year, dumping on their defense which is under even worse conditions with his replacement Monte Kiffin at the helm. Drew Brees led the team to a staggering 49-17 rout against the Dallas, throwing touchdowns to Kenny Stills, Marques Colston, Darren Sproles and Pierre Thomas, while Mark Ingram had a career-high 145 rushing yards—displaying the Saints' efficiency and offensive prowess in both the run and pass game. The Saints will host the San Francisco 49ers next week and ticket demand is high: seats start at $48 and are $340 on average.
11/4/13 - The New Orleans Saints suffered their second loss of the season, falling 20-26 to the New York Jets. The offense was out of sorts as Drew Brees was blustered on Sunday's upset, relentlessly pressured by the Jets defense all game: Brees finished 30 of 51 for 382 yards, two TDs, and two picks. On the other side of the ball, the Saints defense had no answer for the Jet's running game, especially Chris Ivory (former Saints RB), which accumulated 198 yards. New Orleans is looking to shrug off the defeat and move forward to host the Dallas Cowboys in Week 10. New Orleans Saints tickets for the Brees-Romo showdown are the most expensive of the bunch, at $353 on average for a Sunday night football ticket.
10/28/13 - The New Orleans Saints came out of their bye week with a solid victory over the Buffalo Bills at Mercedes Benz Superdome in yesterday's game. Drew Brees had a tremendous day, throwing for an immaculate 5 touchdowns, finishing 26 of 34 for 332 yards; he secured an NFL record for eight career games with five or more touchdown passes. The defense didn't look too shabby either, forcing three turnovers on Sunday. The Bills had a tough time shutting down Brees' choice target, tight end Jimmy Graham, who came back with gusto, scoring two touchdowns despite a partial tear in his foot. Although the Saints are disappointed with their sloppy victory over the Bills, trailing 10-7 in the second quarter, New Orleans owns the NFC South with a 6-1 record on the season. The Saints will next face the New York Jets, who are looking to shrug off yesterday's annihilation by the Bengals. New Orleans Saints tickets for Week 9 are $203 on average.
10/21/13 - The New Orleans Saints will be coming out of their bye week to go head to head against the Buffalo Bills, hot on the heels of their come-from-behind victory over the Miami Dolphins yesterday. The injury status of key players Jimmy Graham (TE), Lance Moore (WR) and Roman Harper (safety) are still unknown heading into this week, but, linebacker Jonathan Vilma will presumably be making his return. The Saints have an excellent record following bye weeks, subsequently winning four straight games since 2009, and they haven't lost to the Bills since 1998. New Orleans Saints tickets when Drew Brees faces Thad Lewis at Mercedes-Benz Superdome is a highly anticipated match, and are the third priciest of the week, at $246 on average.
10/14/13 - In a game some consider to be a Super Bowl preview, the New Orleans Saints suffered a gut-wrenching loss, after being so close victory over Tom Brady and the Patriots 27-30. A now injured Jimmy Graham, who may be out for an extended period of time, was shut down in Sunday's game by Aqib Talib, falling short of an expectant showing with zero receptions on the day. To tie the game in the 4 quarter, Drew Brees made a long 35-yard TD pass to rookie Kenny Stills, with the extra kick to give them a one-point lead over the Patriots. This effort was lost in the last minute of the game when Brady rallied to seal the victory with the most stunning late fourth quarter comeback of the season, as defensive coordinator Rob Ryan anguished on the sideline. Despite the loss, the titanic battle of the Saints and Patriots showed the strength of New Orleans as they almost succeeded in safeguarding their win streak and overcoming Tom Brady in hostile territory. The New Orleans Saints will be enjoying their bye week, getting healthy and recouping from a heartbreaking loss to come back in Week 8, squaring off against the Miami Dolphins.
10/7/13 - The New Orleans Saints have remained undefeated, after their 26-18 victory over the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. The Saints improved to 5-0 with the help of duo Drew Brees and monster tight end
Jimmy Graham
, who has now tied the NFL record for a tight end with over 100 yards in four games. Brees, in his first win at Soldier Field, threw 29 for 35 with 288 yards and two touchdowns, with his third highest completion percentage at 82.9%. The Saints defense has stepped up with coordinator Rob Ryan, and their offense was as balanced as ever, running the ball 28 times, and throwing it 35. Jay Cutler and company could not slow their offense down, and the Saints will ride their winning streak into Week 6 when they remain on the road to play a tough Tom Brady and the New England Patriots. New Orleans Saints tickets are the highest priced seats of the week, costing a lofty $423 on average, and a hefty $166 at the lowest.
10/1/13 - The New Orleans Saints served the Miami Dolphins their first loss of the season in Monday Night's battle of the undefeateds. With the Saints' 9th straight primetime win, Drew Brees further bolstered his "Mr. Monday Night" title, throwing 413 yards and 4 touchdown passes, securing a 17-38 victory at Mercedes-Benz Superdome. Brees worked his excellent targets, including Benjamin Watson, running back Darren Sproles with 7 catches for 14 yards, and unrelenting tight end Jimmy Graham, who caught two TD passes and has at least 100 receiving yards for three consecutive games. With the return of head coach Sean Payton, the team is seemingly unstoppable, as they travel to Illinois to square off against the shaky Chicago Bears in Week 5. New Orleans Saints tickets at Chicago are the hottest tickets of the week, with seats averaging a pricey $462, and $176 being the cheapest to get in.
9/24/13 - The New Orleans Saints are set against the Miami Dolphins, who are electric after coming off an exciting victory over the Falcons last Sunday. Nevertheless, since the return of head coach Sean Payton, the Saints' dominant defense has been the power surging through New Orleans. Coupled with quarterback Drew Brees, who has been 7-0 in his last seven Monday game night performance, the Saints are looking to stay undefeated at the Mercedes-benz Superdome.
There is no doubt that last year — and season — was one that New Orleans Saints fans would like to forget. First came the bounty scandal, which resulted in head coach Sean Payton receiving a one-season suspension from the NFL, along with linebacker Jonathan Vilma; while interim coach Joe Vitt was handed a six-game suspension to be served at the beginning of the season — which meant the Saints would be starting the season with an interim interim coach.Then when the season got off to a start, the squad fell into an immediate hole, going 0-for-September before collecting their first win in October. The squad ultimately finished well back of division champ
Atlanta Falcons
, despite splitting their games with the Falcons.
Saints fans have to hope the defense can pick up the pieces from that disastrous season; that unit finished dead last in the entire NFL in opposition rushing yards per game, and next to last in opposition passing yards per game. The return of Vilma, the spiritual leader, should help. On the offensive side of the ball, Saints fans have to smile at the thought of Drew Brees at the controls. Brees led the New Orleans offensive unit to the top spot in passing yards per game, with the help of a pair of 1,000-yard receivers in Marques Colston and Lance Moore, and nearly a third in Jimmy Graham. The ground game, such that it is, is handled by running backs Mark Ingram, the team's leading rusher, and Pierre Thomas.
New Orleans is always good for a party, and the
Mercedes-Benz Superdome
is always a good starting place. The 2013 Saints schedule kicks off with the 9/8 home opener versus NFC South division rival Atlanta Falcons in New Orleans. Falcons vs. Saints tickets start at $137, the most expensive get-price of any Saints home game in September. Other key New Orleans Saints games include tough back-to-back Sundays in November when the
Dallas Cowboys
San Francisco 49ers
visit The Big Easy. Cowboys vs. Saints tickets for the Sunday Night Football game on November 10th are priced from $189 in the upper end zones, 38% more than the team's opening game against Atlanta. 49ers vs. Saints tickets the following Sunday are a better deal, with a get-in price 42% less than the Cowboys vs. Saints game. Saints fans wanting to score cheap New Orleans Saints tickets should plan to go to home games against the
Arizona Cardinals
Buffalo Bills
Carolina Panthers
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
— all have tickets under $70.

GATESVILLE (January 25, 2013)--The Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles unanimously refused a clemency request Friday from women's death row inmate Kimberly McCarthy, who's scheduled to die next Tuesday for the July 1997 murder of a retired college professor during a robbery.
Her attorneys were seeking a 120-day reprieve and commutation of her sentence to life in prison, but the seven-member board turned her down.
McCarthy was convicted and sentenced to death in November 1998 for the July 21, 1997 murder of her neighbor, Dorothy Booth, 71, at Booth's home in Lancaster.
Evidence showed McCarthy went to Booth's home on the pretense of borrowing sugar and then stabbed the retired professor five times and hit her in the face with a candelabrum.
She cut off Booth's left ring finger to take a diamond ring and nearly severed Booth's left little finger as well, evidence showed.
She fled with Booth's purse and wedding ring and later bought drugs with the stolen money, used the stolen credit cards and pawned the stolen ring, evidence showed.
On Jan. 7, the U.S. Supreme Court without comment, refused to review McCarthy's case.
McCarthy is one of 10 women on women's death row at the Mountainview Unit in Gatesville, but the only one with an execution date.
She would be the fourth Texas woman put to death since the state resumed carrying out capital punishment in 1982.

The Annual Attendance Incentive Program, also referred to as the "Sick Leave Buy-back Program," allows employees whose sick leave balances exceed 480 hours as of January 1st to be compensated at 25% value for any accrued and unused sick leave accumulated during the previous calendar year.
The Attendance Incentive Program is established by state law and is only available for use in January of each year.
Employees must meet the following eligibility requirements in order to participate in the Annual Attendance Incentive program:
If during the year an employee donates any sick leave as shared leave, it is deducted from the employee's sick leave balance and cannot be included in the Annual Attendance Incentive Program.
Payment is made at the rate of 25% of the value of the accrued leave, and all hours compensated are deducted from the sick leave balance. A full-time employee may receive 25% payment for a maximum of 96 hours. The maximum number of hours a part-time employee may accumulate and be compensated for is prorated according to the employee's monthly percentage of time worked.
If you are planning for retirement, consider saving your unused sick leave so you can create a tax-free medical expense account (called VEBA). A VEBA account is created from the 25% sick leave cash-out when you retire from the UW. While the annual sick leave cash-out payment is taxed, funds placed in a VEBA account are used tax-free to pay post retirement medical expenses for you and your eligible dependents. See the VEBA web page for complete information.
Incomplete forms cannot be processed and will be returned to the employee. Forms received after the deadline may not be processed for payment.
To find out more about the situations in which sick leave can be used, please visit the Sick Leave web page.

For example, in Issac Newton's famous story, how Earth and Apple are aware that they are at distance
r of each other? How they can compute their movements?!
Above example is almost simple...I'm so confused how a lot of very complex computations take place around us which only expert physicists and mathematicians may understand some of them and even super computers can not simulate them!
Do Physical objects have intelligence? Do they know Mathematic?
Simply, how the Earth and the Apple

We were actually able to narrow it down to a CSS property we used. The property is "-webkit-user-modify: read-write-plaintext-only;". Once we took that out, the problem went away.
We had to use it in android versions prior to Jelly Bean in order to fix the problem where a white box was drawn over input fields. But it turns out that in Jelly Bean, that's fixed, and the above property causes the soft keyboard to pop up every time you tap somewhere.-->

IN THE AIR — This air monitoring station on Grandview Road in Lawrenceville is part of FirstEnergy's system for monitoring air quality in the residential areas surrounding the Little Blue Run coal ash impoundment. The station is one of several required by the consent decree reached between FirstEnergy and the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection last year. -
Stephen Huba
"We represent a broad range of communities. There's really no average community. ... Every case is different," Madonna said.
A group of Lawrenceville residents filed the lawsuit a week ago in U.S. District Court in Wheeling, accusing FirstEnergy of negligence and gross negligence in its maintenance of the Little Blue Run coal ash impoundment.
FirstEnergy has been using the impoundment, which straddles the West Virginia-Pennsylvania line, since the mid-1970s for the disposal of coal ash byproduct material from the coal-fired Bruce Mansfield Plant in Shippingport, Pa. The 976-acre impoundment sits on 1,700 acres owned by FirstEnergy.
Coal ash waste results when scrubber technology is used to remove sulfur dioxide from coal emissions. The coal ash is mixed with lime and other materials, thickened into a slurry and sent through a seven-mile, underground pipeline to the unlined impoundment, where it is stored for an indefinite period of time.
Over the years, neighbors of Little Blue Run have complained of adverse health effects they attribute to the seepage of toxic chemicals into the groundwater surrounding the impoundment - seepage that has been documented by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection and monitoring stations installed by FirstEnergy.
Now, 53 Lawrenceville residents are claiming damage to their property values by the residual effects of FirstEnergy's coal ash disposal practices. Specifically, the lawsuit says the plaintiffs' properties have been "inundated with water via seeps from the impoundment," creating constantly wet conditions in the yards, causing the foundations to shift and producing mold.
Although Madonna has negotiated the sale of more than a dozen Lawrenceville homes to FirstEnergy, most residents there feel stuck with their properties, he said.
"Real estate agents won't even list the properties," Madonna said. "People's property values have been devastated ... so they deserve to be compensated."
Madonna said he was first contacted by Lawrenceville residents two and a half years ago. "I made a couple of trips to the community. The last couple of years, as more people have been impacted by the impoundment, they typically just call us," he said.
The lawsuit seeks compensatory and punitive damages for 53 residents (35 homes) in the following areas: Johnsonville Road, Doberman Drive, Marks Run Road, Pyramus Road, Lynn Street, Aken Acres Lane, Hickory Road, Linden Avenue, Melody Lane and Desperado Lane.
Plaintiffs contacted said they were instructed not to comment while the lawsuit is pending.
Madonna said the lawsuit was filed with the assistance of the Jividen Law Offices in Wheeling and the Cochran Firm in Dothan, Ala., because he is not licensed to practice in West Virginia. The plaintiffs are asking for a jury trial.
In 2007, an 11-member jury in Clarksburg, W.Va., ordered DuPont to pay $196.2 million in punitive damages - the largest civil plaintiff award that year - to a group of Harrison County residents represented by Kennedy. The residents claimed DuPont's oversight of a 112-acre zinc waste site put them at risk of cancer, heart disease and lead poisoning.
"Our legal team has litigated in West Virginia before, so it's good to be working in that state again," Madonna said.
FirstEnergy spokeswoman Stephanie Walton said she couldn't comment on pending litigation.
Meanwhile, FirstEnergy is reviewing a 29-page letter from the Pennsylvania DEP regarding FirstEnergy's closure plan for Little Blue Run. FirstEnergy is under order from the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania to close Little Blue Run by the end of 2016, to monitor groundwater seeps in the vicinity and to remediate any contaminated groundwater.
FirstEnergy and the Pennsylvania DEP reached a consent decree last year outlining FirstEnergy's responsibilities regarding the closure of Little Blue Run and imposing a fine of $800,000.
The consent decree required FirstEnergy to file a closure plan by March 31.
In August, the Pennsylvania DEP held a public hearing in Hookstown on the closure plan, in addition to soliciting written comments.
The PDEP letter, dated Oct. 3, outlines a number of "technical deficiencies" in FirstEnergy's closure plan and gives FirstEnergy 60 days to address the deficiencies. "The deficiencies outlined in the letter cover the gamut - from very technical to more substantive," said PDEP spokesman John Poister.
Walton declined to comment on specific deficiencies but said, "They've asked us to provide additional information. This is a standard step in the process ... and we look forward to finalizing the plan for closing the facility."
But environmentalist critics of FirstEnergy read the PDEP letter as an overdue necessary correction.
"My hat's off to the DEP. This is a stern technical deficiency letter," said Lisa Graves Marcucci, Pennsylvania community outreach coordinator for the Washington, D.C.-based Environmental Integrity Project. "(FirstEnergy is) being held to some firm, specific details, and that's good."
Environmental Integrity Project staff attorney Whitney Ferrell said three "major" deficiencies outlined by PDEP have to do with FirstEnergy's failure to address the extent of the groundwater contamination in Lawrenceville, the groundwater clean-up plan and the potential impact to air quality.
"We think that the state has sent a clear message to FirstEnergy that they need to do better," Ferrell said. "The 60-day deadline shows that they're serious."

Unanswered: FramePanel, Menus and ie plugin
I have problem for displaying Menus from a toolbar. My page displays a toolbar on the top and in the middle, it display a pdf document in a NamedFrame. When i click on a button of my toolbar, a menu is trigrered and unfortunatly is displayed under the pdf. This is also the case for applets
I've seen the FramePanel class in 2.x, which
"Displays an iframe under a element to stop IE bleed through and applet related issues. "
But i did not know how to use it. It also seems to have dsapeared in 3.x.
My question is simple, is there a way either in 2.x and 3.x to have menus on top of ie plugins ?

The Component.shim property is used to enable adding an iframe shim to a component - its still there, but it isn't as exposed as it used to be. GXT checks if the current browser needs shims for things (only some browsers do) via GXT.isUseShims(). By default this is true for IE6, and old FF builds on a mac, and false otherwise. You can set it to true for other browsers via GXT.setUseShims(boolean).
When i click on a button of my toolbar, a menu is trigrered and unfortunatly is displayed under the pdf.
To debug this, check out Component.onAfterFirstAttach():
/** * Called immediately after the first time the widget becomes attached to the * browser's document only the first time. */ protected void onAfterFirstAttach() { if (shadow || (shim && GXT.isUseShims())) { layer = new Layer(getElement()); if (shadow) { layer.enableShadow(); layer.setShadowPosition(shadowPosition); } if (shim && GXT.isUseShims()) { layer.enableShim(); } }

The meaning of Chuck Hagel
"This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility." — Barack Obama to Dmitry Medvedev, March 26, 2012
WASHINGTON — The puzzle of the Chuck Hagel nomination for Defense secretary is that you normally choose someone of the other party for your Cabinet to indicate a move to the center, but, as The Washington Post editorial board points out, Hagel's foreign-policy views are to the left of Barack Obama's, let alone the GOP's. Indeed, they are at the fringe of the entire Senate.

Suppose I have $k$ $n$-dimensional polytopes $P_1,\ldots,P_k$, each explicitly specified as the intersection of a collection of hyperplanes. If there was a point $p \in \mathbb{R}^n$ that lay in the intersection of all of these polytopes ($p \in P_1 \cap \ldots \cap P_k$), I could efficiently find it by solving a linear program. Unfortunately, I have no guarantee that my polytopes have non-empty intersection. However, someone has promised me that there exists a point $p$ that lies in at least $2/3$ of my polytopes: that is, there exist indices $i_1,\ldots,i_{2k/3}$ such that: $$p \in P_{i_1} \cap \ldots \cap P_{i_{2k/3}}$$
Does there exist an efficient algorithm (running in time polynomial in k and n) that can find such a point?

Pronounced: beks-AIR-oh-teen
Classification: Retinoid
About Bexarotene
Bexarotene belongs to a class of medications called retinoids. Retinoids are relatives of vitamin A and appear to interfere with genes that control cell growth. The exact way bexarotene works is unknown, but it is believed to inhibit the growth of tumor cells.
How to Take Bexarotene (Gel Formulation)
Bexarotene gel formulation is applied to the skin. The gel should be applied initially once every other day. The frequency should be increased, as tolerated, to once a day, then twice a day, then three times a day, and finally, four times a day.
How to Apply:
Where do I get this medication?
Bexarotene gel formulation is available through retail/mail order pharmacy. Your oncology team will work with your prescription drug plan to identify an in-network retail/mail order pharmacy for medication distribution.
Insurance Information
This medication may be covered under your prescription drug plan. Patient assistance may be available to qualifying individuals without prescription drug coverage. A co-pay assistance program, which reduces the patient's co-pay responsibility for eligible, commercially (non-government sponsored) insured patients, may also be available. Your care team can help you find these resources, if they are available.
Storage and Handling
Store your medication in the original, labeled container at room temperature and in a dry location (unless otherwise directed by your HCP or Pharmacist). Keep containers out of reach of children and pets.
If a caregiver helps you apply the medication, they should consider wearing gloves or dispense the gel directly from the directly into your hand for application. They should always wash their hands before and after touching the medication. Pregnant or nursing women should not prepare the dose for you. Ask your oncology team where to return any unused medication for disposal. Do not flush down the toilet or throw in the trash.
Safety Considerations When Receiving Bexarotene:
Possible Side Effects of Bexarotene Gel Formulation
There are a number of things you can do to manage the side effects of bexarotene gel formulation. Talk to your doctor or nurse about these recommendations. They can help you decide what will work best for you. These are some of the most common side effects:
Skin Changes
While using this gel, your skin may develop redness, itching, burning, irritation and scaling in the area of application. Your skin will be more sensitive to the sun, which can result in severe sunburn or rash. Sun sensitivity can last even after you stop taking the medication. Avoid the sun as much as possible, as even a little exposure can cause a burn. Do not use a sunlamp or tanning bed. Wear sunglasses and long sleeves/pants to protect your skin and eyes. Talk to your healthcare provider before using topical lotions and moisturizers as these may interfere with the medication if applied to the same areas.
Sun Sensitivity
This medication can make your skin more sensitive to the sun, which can result in severe sunburn or rash. Sun sensitivity can last even after chemotherapy is completed. Avoid the sun between 10-2pm, when it is strongest. Wear sunscreen (at least SPF 15) everyday; wear sunglasses, a hat and long sleeves/pants to protect your skin and seek out shade whenever possible.
Reproductive Concerns
As noted above, exposure of an unborn child to this medication could cause birth defects, so you should not become pregnant or father a child while on this medication. Effective birth control is necessary during treatment and for at least 1 month after treatment. Even if your menstrual cycle stops or you believe you are not producing sperm, you could still be fertile and conceive. You should not breastfeed while using this medication.

Wrestling's Hale Qualifies for NCAA Championships
March 1, 2014
TIFFIN, Ohio – After three Trojans advanced to the final day of competition at the Midwest Super Regionals, sophomore Zak Hale was the lone AU representative who found the podium with a fifth-place finish, earning his second trip to the NCAA Championships, Saturday at Tiffin's Heminger Arena.
Despite his 1-2 record for the day, Hale earned a victory in his final bout to advance to the NCAA Championships in Cleveland, beginning on March 14. Redshirt senior Cory Monteforte and graduate student Zane Newton both suffered setbacks in their respective opening bouts, ending their tournament campaigns.
Hale began the second day of the tournament with a rematch against Indianapolis' Josh Keiffer, who he lost to at the Super Region II Duals earlier this season. Hale was unable to avenge the setback, falling by decision, 5-4. In the wrestleback bracket, Hale squared off against Coker's Charlie Huff, who he defeated 8-7 at the Abney Athletic Center earlier this season.
Despite carrying the earlier season win over the Cobra, Huff earned the 4-2 overtime win over Hale, sending the sophomore to the fifth-place match against King's DeMarcus Spencer, with the winner earning the final spot to Cleveland.
Hale made the most of the opportunity and earned a 3-1 decision over Spencer for his second win over the Tornado grappler of the tournament. With the win, Hale earned the final spot at 133 from the Midwest region to advance to the NCAA Championships. The Shaftsbury, Vt. native will enter the two-day tournament with a 21-6 record.
"Our regional qualifying tournament was as challenging as we anticipated it to be," Anderson head coach Dock Kelly said. "We did not wrestle well, but fortunately, Zak was able to recover and win the placement match and thus qualify for the national tournament."
At 125, Monteforte was eliminated by familiar foe, Patrick Mestrez of Belmont Abbey, in sudden-victory. Monteforte closed his tournament run with a 2-2 record and finished his season with an 11-14 mark.
Newton was knocked from the tournament by Ashland's Kyle Burns, 4-2, ending his season. Newton closed out the 2013-14 campaign ranking second on the team in wins with 16.
"Overall, it was a disappointing day," Kelly said. "However, I am excited that Zak will have the opportunity to represent our wrestling program at the national tournament."

WELLSBURG - The Brooke County Economic Development Authority has agreed to assist the Business Development Authority of the Northern Panhandle in seeking a business or businesses for the former site of the Wheeling Corrugating Plant.
Pat Ford, executive director of the BDC, met with the board Thursday to ask it to assist in managing and marketing the site, which includes a 480,000-square-foot building and 616 acres between state Route 2 and the Ohio River in Beech Bottom.
Ford said state, county and local officials were involved in the cleanup of the Taylor, Smith & Taylor Pottery site in Chester.
The BDC acquired the property for $125,000 last year and worked with others to secure more than $1 million from local, state and federal sources for its cleanup.
Ford said the same level of cooperation will be needed to bring a new business to the Brooke County site.
"We need to all be on the same page for this project to be a success," he said.
EDA Chairman John Casinelli and Vice Chairman Norm Schwertfeger were among members who voiced support. Also on hand were county Commissioners Norma Tarr and Tim Ennis and Commissioner-elect Jim Andreozzi.
"This is great. I think the consensus from everybody here is it's a real positive," Schwertfeger said.
Ford said he wanted to stress that not much stands in the way of the site being developed.
"There's no bureaucratic red tape. We could bring a prospect into that site today if we needed to," he said. "I've been walking that building with prospects every day since last Friday."
Ford said a Phase 1 environmental assessment, involving an investigation into records indicating any environmental contamination, was done before the BDC acquired the property.
He said the Brooke-Hancock-Jefferson Metropolitan Planning Commission is working with the BDC to obtain federal money for a Phase 2 study, which would include taking core samples from the land.
Ford noted about 12 acres north of the culvert plant underwent environmental remediation through the efforts of Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel Corp., its former owner, a number of years ago.
The BDC paid $200,000 for land rights for the site from State Route 2 LLC, a subsidiary of Hackman Capital of Los Angeles, which purchased the property through bankruptcy proceedings for RG Steel, its last owner.
Ford said the BDC chose to partner with Hackman for the acquisition because the company is not interested solely in the plant's equipment but also in helping to market it to a new business.
He said Hackman won't take equipment that may benefit a future occupant.
"They're in this for a long relationship with us," Ford said.
He asked Ruby Greathouse, curator of the Brooke County Museum and Cultural Center, and other Brooke EDA members to tour the site and determine if there are things such as photos and even old equipment that might be of historic significance and little interest to a new occupant.
Ford said it may be necessary to divert a section of the Brooke County Pioneer Trail from its present site behind the plant, adding that would be done at "our cost,"
Most of the trail was built on former railbed running between Wellsburg and Wheeling. But the plant's paint line was built on the railbed, requiring the trail to be extended through a 3.4-mile area overlooking the Ohio River.
Greathouse, a leader of the Brooke County Pioneer Trail Association, said, "We'll work with them. The last thing we want to do is harm any potential for employment."
Asked if the BDC acquired mineral rights, such as the right to lease the land for natural gas drilling, Ford said such rights remain in bankruptcy court.
In other business, the board approved:
The allocation of $3,000 for a planned emergency tie-in between water lines serving the Hammond Public Service District, Beech Bottom and Wellsburg.
The allocation of $3,000 for the first floor of the museum and cultural center. Greathouse noted an open house will be held for the new location at the former G.C. Murphy building at 5:30 p.m. Thursday at 704 Charles St.
The open house will be followed by a Christmas program at 6:30 p.m. featuring Charlie's Kids, a group of local youth, and the Brooke High School Madrigal Choir.

Coming Out in Print
Issue 125, November 21, 1973
New York City's former chief health officer created a sensation when he came out as gay in front of 600 colleagues at a symposium on sexuality. At the time The Advocate described it as the biggest boost for gay liberation in three years. Brown penned an article for the magazine about his decision.
"It is one measure of how society has really oppressed me, that though I had been active in the fight for the poor and for civil rights, it never occurred to me that I could fight for the rights of the homosexuals. The gay freedom fighters redefined my previous feelings of shame at being a homosexual into a sense of rage that society could do this to me and so many of the people I loved."
Issue 185, March 10, 1976
The former NFL running back made national headlines when he came out in an interview for The Washington Star's controversial "Homosexuality in Sports" series. He wrote an impactful memoir, The David Kopay Story, published in 1977, and he spoke with The Advocate about his plans for it. In 2006 he was a featured announcer at Gay Games VII in Chicago.
"I realize there are other people like me, younger people especially, who need to know the truth, to know that there are successful gay people in every walk of life, including the life of a pro athlete. It would have helped me to know others."
Issue 546, March 13, 1990
Professional bodybuilder Paris revealed he's gay during an interview with Ironman magazine in 1989. The two had a commitment ceremony the same year and frequently lectured about LGBT issues. The couple eventually broke up in 1996.
"The reason Bob and I can get through so much prejudice and hate is because when people come up to us and say, 'Is this your friend?' we say 'No, this is my spouse. This is my husband.' We look them in the eye, and they always respect us. They've never had a gay person with that much self-respect say that to them."
Sheila James Kuehl
Issue 553, June 19, 1990
This child actress turned politician spent her youth on TV, starring as the irrepressible Zelda Gilroy on The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis and turning up on other shows, such as The Beverly Hillbillies and The Ed Sullivan Show. She recalled for us that hearing that her Dobie Gillis spin-off wouldn't be picked up coincided with her realization that she was a lesbian. No matter, Harvard eventually came calling, and she earned a law degree there. She later served in the California Assembly and Senate from 1994 to 2008, and her accomplishments there include strengthening hate-crimes and antidiscrimination laws, especially as they deal with gender identity and sexual orientation.
"I was told by the director that the president of CBS turned the pilot down because Zelda was too butch. I didn't really react when he said that, but it sent a cold chill down my back."
Issue 584, August 27, 1991
Not everyone comes out voluntarily. In one of the most controversial cover stories in The Advocate's history, Michelangelo Signorile outed Bush Sr.'s closeted assistant secretary of Defense for public affairs. Pentagon spokesman Pete Williams took self-loathing to new heights by insisting he supported the military's total ban on gays and lesbians in the very same article in which The Advocate outed him. Within a year, Bill Clinton, then a candidate for president, cited a gay "Pentagon official" while promising to overturn the ban. Williams went on to become a correspondent for NBC News who viewers now regularly see speed-reading Supreme Court rulings as we await breaking news.
"So many gay men seem to know Williams and know of his homosexuality that it becomes questionable as to whether he was ever in the closet. While several men tell of friendships and sexual encounters with him, one man says they had a two-month intimate 'boyfriends' relationship."
Issue 664, September 20, 1994
The popular composer-musician answered our very direct questions about his sexuality.
"I don't think it is necessary for everybody to identify themselves in terms of sexual proclivity because life is so much more than that — even though I understand the need to do that because of the repression and lack of acceptance of the gay world."
Issue 685, July 11, 1995
While it's no surprise that a Playgirl centerfold is secretly gay, the magazine's 1992 Man of the Year shared his feelings about pretending to be straight during publicity duties.
"What I went through is really a situation everyone goes through. At some time or another, everyone has to hide behind a mask, present themselves in another way to be accepted."
"I don't want to say I've been living a lie, but for the past seven, eight years I haven't been able to be comfortable in my own skin, around my own friends and family."
Issue 1035, February 2010
The actor, who played Vanessa Williams's fashion-conscious assistant on ABC's Ugly Betty and was about to open in The Temperamentals, a play about the Mattachine Society, told us he generally eschews labels but identifies as queer.
"I've never said I was straight, and I'm not saying I'm gay now. I never lie, and I've never shied away from the topic. I've certainly chosen through my work to do things that promote the rights of LGBTQ people. I am not a hypocrite — certainly not now."
Issue 1037, April 2010
The Emmy Award–winning actor insisted during his first interview with The Advocate — a dozen years after he gained fame as Jack McFarland on NBC's landmark sitcom Will & Grace — that he was never "closeted."
"I am who I am. I was never in, as they say. Never."
Chaz Bono
Issue 1049, June-July 2011
Sixteen years after coming out as a lesbian in The Advocate, the activist son of entertainers Sonny and Cher came out as a transgender man, and shared his reason for being so public with his transition.
"I want to help people avoid going through what I went through. I don't want people to wait until they're 40 to be who they are."
