Converting ungeneric "Array" to "any[]"

TypeScript 0.9.5 beta does not allow generic type references without the type argument.  This code will still compile for 0.9.1 users.  Flight and Ember have further compile problems in 0.9.5 that I don't feel qualified to address as I'm not versed in those libraries.
