A short while ago the exotic Italian automaker Ferrari announced a new program that would allow clients to create their own custom model right from the factory in Maranello. This is perhaps a tribute to Jim Glicknehaus's one off Ferrari P4/5 that is nothing more than a re bodied Enzo made to look like the classic race car. One of the fruits of the new cliente program's labor is this, the P540 Superfast Aperta specially built for one lucky Ferrarista here in America. Based on the 599 GTB Fiorano , this coach built Ferrari gets its inspiration from the classic Carrozzeria Fantuzzi-designed golden open air Ferrari that was built for the 1968 Fellini film, Toby Dammit.
Designed by Pininfarina and built at Ferrari's workshop, the client was directly involved in each and every stage of his dream car's development. Just like when collectors turned Daytona coupes into spiders back in the 1960s, the P540 underwent significant chassis strengthening when the 599 lost its top while keeping weight gain under fifty pounds, thanks to extensive use of lightweight carbon fiber. As a testament to Ferrari's latest specialty customer program, the Superfast Aperta went from initial sketches to a fully functional road legal custom super car in only 14 months, simply amazing.
Press release after the jump.
Press release
The first shake-down has been held at Fiorano of a very special one-off, the P540 Superfast Aperta, built for an American client. The car, the second in a new Special Projects programme created by Ferrari to meet requests from the most discerning clients and collectors to create truly unique models, is based on the 599 GTB Fiorano and was inspired by a Carrozzeria Fantuzzi-designed Ferrari built specifically for the 1968 Fellini film, Toby Dammit, itself inspired by one of the tales of Edgar Allan Poe.
The P540 Superfast Aperta's proud new owner, Edward Walson, son of John Walson, the inventor of cable TV, approached Ferrari in 2008 to produce a modern reinterpretation of the gold-coloured car in the film. "I had always dreamed of designing sports cars," Walson explains, "and when I saw this film the decision came of its own accord: one day I would have 'my' Ferrari."
In accordance with the Special Project's approach to producing such individual one-offs, the P540 Superfast Aperta respects all existing international safety and homologation requirements and is thus road legal. The car was designed by Pininfarina and built in Maranello, and the client was directly involved in each stage of its development. As the 599 GTB Fiorano donor car is a coupé, considerable effort went into strengthening the chassis by using finite element analysis in development and the increase in weight was kept down to just 20 kg by employing carbon-fibre extensively. From the initial sketches to the final, road-legal car took just 14 months.
As the client took delivery of the car at Fiorano his excitement was understandable: "This is the most special Christmas present of my life."

How to Plan Manpower on a Web Team
27 Reader CommentsBack to the Article
This was an interesting article but in my experience teams are a thing of the past and most websites are made by one person maybe two tops,unless your working for a big time organization CNN ESPN etc.And if your reading articles online on how to effectivly organize a team then your probably not going to get the job in the first placea nd more than likely all spots have already been filled at all the top organizations already.
Umm…, this smacks of not taking into account the lessons of "The Mythical Man Month": As you add people to a project the complexity of completing that project, no matter how simple, increases exponentially (my exteremely quick summary of one of the main lessons of the book). I agree that the basic math works out, but there is always a lot more to getting something done by division of labor amoungst other human beings which always manages to make things much more complicated than they need to be.
I think many web developers have struggle with manpower planning, especially for large projects.
I often forget that the busier the website – the more time it takes to maintain. You brought up some good points to keep in mind when planning web development projects.
Good article! Resourcing has always been the bane of any system development. As someone who's been in IT development for 33 years (yes I really am 38!), this whole question is not new and nobody has ever come up with an 'A x B x C = D people' answer. Major consultancies still get it wrong so it's no surprise smaller WebCo's find it perplexing. I've worked on projects from > 300 people down to my current team of 5. Shane's figures seem to fit our company as we're involved in heavyweight, transactional J2EE Web systems — but then we have our own product for doing the development work which has taken 6 years to build and cuts our timescales and costs right back. Without it, I'd be looking at a team of probably 12 – 15 just to cope with current workloads, let alone other projects. I think anyone contemplating major transactional, high performance, high hit-rate Web systems should err on the high numbers side from personal experience. But then don't ignore the increased management effect that higher staffing will require.
Great article, but I wonder if you're aware how alienating the language is?
I've worked in a web-related job for over ten years now; for the first six I wasn't part of a team at all – one of the reasons I was interested in the content of your article. In common with other public services, many of the people I work with either as editors or page authors are female. It might seem like a small point, but while the subject matter should be of interest to anyone on a web team, I didn't feel you were really talking to me.
It's 2006 – surely we've moved on a bit?
I calculate the necessary mandays the following way: ask a developer of your team. Multiply his estimation with the number of years he is away from 5 years work experience. Triple the result and that's a good start. ;-)
Great article, although a few years old, still relevant!
Does anyone have a useful web based tool for resource management, I literally cannot find a thing. We use Basecamp for pm stuff, but would love a resource hook in.

When someone asks me what I think of the dialectical materialist method
Text (would be legible on actual shirt):
1. You have no problem with the gender wage gap. But you hate having to pay for dates.
2. You insist that it's a scientifically proven fact that men are stronger than women. But you complain about society believing that it's worse for a man to hit a woman than for a woman to hit a man.
3. You believe that the age of consent is unfair and that there's nothing wrong with having sex with teenage girls. But when you find out that a teenage girl enjoys sex, you believe she's the biggest slut in the world.
4. You hate when a woman automatically assumes that a man is a douchebag before getting to know him. But when you like a woman who likes another man, you assume he's a douchebag just because he's not you.
5. You believe that if women want equality, they should be drafted into the military. But you also believe that the military is not a place for women.
6. You hate when women assume that men are like wild animals. But you believe that a woman who doesn't cover up and make herself invisible to men is just like someone wearing a meat suit around wild animals.
7. You hate the fact that men are bullied for not conforming to their male gender roles. But when you find out that a man disagrees with your beliefs about women's rights, your immediate response is to try to emasculate him by comparing him to a woman as an insult.
8. You hate when women assume that there are no nice guys. But you call yourself a nice guy and act like it's a rare quality that should cause women to be all over you.
9. You hate when women assume that men just want to get laid. But when you find out that a man is a feminist, you assume that he's just doing it to get laid.
10. You hate when women make generalizations about all men. But when a woman calls you out for being sexist, you claim that all men think like you.
11. You insist that women should be responsible for protecting themselves from being raped. But when they follow the one piece of advice that actually works, which is being aware of red flags, you complain about them assuming that all men are rapists.

The people who own RonPaul.com and RonPaul.org offered to sell them to the former libertarian candidate for a quarter of a million bucks. Instead of accepting their generous free-market offer, Ron Paul went crying to a UN council to take control of the domain name under intellectual property rights.
In related news, Ron Paul fans are crying almost as hard as I'm laughing.
Some advice from Jonathan Swift:
He likewise directed, "that every senator in the great council of a nation, after he had delivered his opinion, and argued in the defence of it, should be obliged to give his vote directly contrary; because if that were done, the result would infallibly terminate in the good of the public."
When parties in a state are violent, he offered a wonderful contrivance to reconcile them. The method is this: You take a hundred leaders of each party; you dispose them into couples of such whose heads are nearest of a size; then let two nice operators saw off the occiput of each couple at the same time, in such a manner that the brain may be equally divided. Let the occiputs, thus cut off, be interchanged, applying each to the head of his opposite party-man. It seems indeed to be a work that requires some exactness, but the professor assured us, "that if it were dexterously performed, the cure would be infallible." For he argued thus: "that the two half brains being left to debate the matter between themselves within the space of one skull, would soon come to a good understanding, and produce that moderation, as well as regularity of thinking, so much to be wished for in the heads of those, who imagine they come into the world only to watch and govern its motion: and as to the difference of brains, in quantity or quality, among those who are directors in faction, the doctor assured us, from his own knowledge, that "it was a perfect trifle."
—Gulliver's Travels, Part III, Chapter VI
"My senior thesis became the basis of my first two published articles, which appeared in 1965. More importantly, it introduced me to Hofstadter, the premier historian of his generation, who would soon be supervising my dissertation. One day Hofstadter related to me how he had obtained his first full-time teaching position when a job opened in 1941 at the downtown branch of City College because of the dismissal of a victim of the Rapp-Coudert Committee. Students initially boycotted Hofstadter's lectures as a show of support for his purged predecessor, but eventually they returned to the classroom. Ironically, Hofstadter's first job resulted from the flourishing of the kind of political paranoia that he would later lament in his historical writings. Even more ironically, the victim of political blacklisting whom Hofstadter replaced was my father."

Legs bared around the world for annual 'No Pants' commute
A woman rides a New York subway train in her underwear as she takes part in the 2014 No Pants Subway Ride on January 12, 2014
Commuters in some 60 cities braved public transportation in their undies for the stunt, which has gone global since its first staging by US group Improv Everywhere in New York in 2002.
The premise is simple: participants convene on a given route on a designated day every year without trousers on, and ride the rails (or road) for shock value and laughs.
"It is just about fun, and providing a laugh and a smile," said Charlie Todd, who created the event 12 years ago when just seven people took part.
Act "normal. Remember to keep a straight face," Todd instructed participants in the Big Apple -- some 3,000 to 4,000 people this year aged three months to 71.
"If somebody tells you you have no pants, just say you forgot, and yes it's cold, yes it's unfortunate," he said.
Underpants must be worn and, although flashy designs are allowed, organizers prefer those involved to look -- at least from the waist-up -- as though they are going about their daily lives in an effort to up the impact on bystanders.
Uniforms and business suits are encouraged to amplify the lower-half effect, as are props -- bicycles, prams, shopping bags or even a briefcase.
Seven New York subway stops were designated for this year's stunt, with the group planning to reconvene ultimately at Union Square in Manhattan.
"It's a bit chilly, but it is fun," said Pedro, in red underwear and socks, wearing a hat and carrying a briefcase, as he stood on a subway platform.
A woman in her thirties donning briefs and talking on her cell phone prompted amused glances from passersby, with one older woman sporting a perplexed stare.
In Paris, the meeting point was the Charles de Gaulle-Etoile metro stop, with pants-free passengers headed all the way to Bastille. More than 1,200 people had signed up ahead of time via Facebook.
Other events were smaller, like in the Argentine capital Buenos Aires, where a handful of young people, mainly men in suits, ties -- and brightly-colored flowery boxers -- drew laughs.
In Sydney, a small but dedicated group dropped their trousers on the city circle loop train, packed with bemused weekend sightseers on a busy summer's day, then switched routes for a return trip to Bondi.
"Insist that it is a coincidence that others also forgot their trousers," the organizers told participants, who were also forbidden from speaking to one another.
There was a no trousers tram ride in southern Melbourne and Adelaide and people also went pants-less for a train trip in northern Brisbane.
On a busy Hong Kong subway, around 40 people, including Australian Bess Hepworth and her 18-month-old son, joined in the fun.
"It's the first time he will be publicly taking off his pants, although he does it regularly already," the 37-year-old said.
In Beijing, a handful of trouserless people took to the Chinese capital's fast-growing subway, drawing confused glances from onlookers.
"I want to show that (Chinese people) are internationalized now," said 22-year-old Huang Li, wearing blue underwear decorated with dots.
But "people say I'm a psycho," she added.

Missouri Conservation officers are warning you to be alert for certain animals this time of year.
Officer Don Clever says while it's rare to find Rabid animals in Northeast Missouri, everybody needs to use caution if they see bats or skunks.
Last year the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services captured dozens of these animals that had rabies. While rabies can affect any mammal, it's likely to come from either a bat or a skunk.
"Well here in Missouri there the primary carriers. Other states there are some other strains of rabies and in other mammals as well, but here in Missouri, the strain is mostly affected in bats and skunks," Clever said.
Clever also said the most recent case of rabies in Missouri was in 2008 and he believes awareness is helping to keep people from getting the disease.

Your Hospital Stay
After your transplant surgery, you will spend time in the surgical intensive care unit (SICU) for close monitoring. Most people are transferred from the SICU to the transplant unit the day after surgery. Planning for your discharge from the hospital will begin almost as soon as you come out of surgery. Pancreas and kidney-pancreas transplant recipients typically go home within seven to 10 days after transplant.
Each day that you are in the hospital, the multidisciplinary Rush Pancreas Transplant Care Team will visit you, review your progress and reassess what medications you need.
Antirejection Medicines
On the day of your transplant, you will be started on a combination of medicines designed to prevent your body's immune system from rejecting (attacking) your new organ(s). During your admission to the hospital, you will be given some intravenous (IV) medicines to rejection. At the same time, you also will be started on oral antirejection medications. You will take some combination of antirejection medicines for the rest of your life or as long as you have a functioning transplant.
Like all medicines, antirejection medications have side effects, which may include low blood count (anemia), gum overgrowth, high blood pressure, diabetes, nausea, diarrhea, tremors and elevated cholesterol. It may be possible to control or improve the effects. Talk with your transplant team about side effects you may be experiencing. No matter what the side effects, never stop taking your medications without discussing it with the transplant team.
Other Medicines
Most people with diabetes and kidney disease take many kinds of medicine. After your transplant, you will continue with some of these medicines unchanged, take lower doses of others, and stop taking some of them altogether. You also probably will be prescribed one or two medications for a few months in order to prevent postsurgical infections.
Post-Hospitalization Follow-Up Care
After you are discharged from Rush, you will need to return to the transplant clinic on a regular basis for continued evaluation of your new organ(s), management of your antirejection medicines and routine postoperative wound care. Generally, these appointments will take place twice a week for the first one to two months after surgery, then become less frequent.
For as long as you have a working transplant, you will need to continue to receive follow-up health evaluations. Blood tests will be the primary screening tool to assess your kidney and pancreas function. At standard intervals and if there is suspicion of rejection, your doctor may perform a biopsy (tissue sample and analysis) of your transplanted organ(s). The biopsy helps determine if anything is wrong with the organ(s) and what treatments may be needed. Other tests and referrals to specialists will be made as needed based on your situation.
Home Care
It is a good idea to have someone with you for the first week after discharge from the hospital should any unexpected difficulties arise. If you have needed assistance at home before your surgery, you probably still will need help. A member of the Rush Pancreas Transplant Care Team will assess your home care needs prior to your discharge from the hospital and help arrange a visiting nurse or physical or occupational therapy if you need it.
Working After Transplantation
Unless specifically told by a doctor not to work, most people are able to return to work within four to six weeks after the transplant, depending on the amount of physical exertion the job requires.

The president of Georgia State University gave his baseball coach a new car Tuesday morning. Two hours later, Greg Frady showed a visitor the fruits of his team's victory in the Colonial Athletic Association tournament – a snazzy red-and-white convertible about six inches long and two inches high.
OK, so the gift of a model car wasn't quite like winning the showcase on "The Price Is Right," but it was a nice gesture by Mark Becker, the president who got so pumped he sent his coach text messages between CAA tournament games. And this week has the potential to be better still: The Georgia State Panthers are going to what their coach calls "baseball heaven."
Friday night will mark GSU's first appearance in the NCAA tournament, and it will come in a ballpark two miles from Panther headquarters. Georgia State plays Georgia Tech at Russ Chandler Stadium, and Frady knows a grand opportunity is at hand.
"The Atlanta community will be paying attention to this game," Frady said, "and it's a big stage for Georgia State. We've not been on this NCAA regional stage. It's old hat to Georgia Tech."
In the crowded Atlanta market, about the only way for Georgia State to leave a footprint is to stomp on one of the bigger local programs. Lefty Driesell's basketball team did it in 2000 and 2001, twice beating Jim Harrick's Georgia Bulldogs, and now Frady's club – which has already whipped the Jackets once this season – has a chance to make a similar lasting impression.
Frady, who's in his third season as GSU's head coach, is an interesting guy. He grew up in Ellijay and played five different sports alongside John Davis, who became an All-American lineman at Tech. (Indeed, the two were inducted concurrently into Gilmer County High School's Hall of Fame three years ago.) Once the president of the Madison, Fla., Rotary Club, Frady is now the coach of the German national baseball team.
Asked to name the greatest German baseball player ever, he mentions Kai Gronauer, who's a catcher in the New York Mets' organization. As primed as GSU might be for the NCAA, Frady claims the games won't carry any more heat than, say, Germany facing Russia.
Said Frady: "Baseball is an interesting game. Except for a sliding-type play, you never touch the other team. You only play the ball. Our focus has to be to play the ball and play the ball well."
Yes, his name is Frady and he coaches the Panthers, but he's no 'fraidy cat: "I'm more than thrilled to put the product we have at Georgia State on the field Friday night … When we go into a game, we think we can beat any team in the country."
On Friday night, Georgia State will endeavor to beat the most prestigious college team in Fulton County. "Being on this side of the fence, Georgia Tech is the big brother in town," Frady said. "Anytime you've got a chance to do something that garners your big brother's respect, it's a wonderful opportunity. Our people are paying attention because of that. I love that."

Nice of GA State to get a nod. Sorry, though, this ain't just "old hat" to Tech. Not after last year's Athens regional… We've still got a lot to prove this season.
May 26th, 2009
6:21 pm
Georgia State should really be ready after that throttling of Atlanta Christian College. No, really, they played them. And Oglethorpe. And Augusta State. In the regular season. What DIVISION I program in their right minds loads up on schools like that?
I'll be looking forward to watching the used car salesman get his hat handed to him this weekend.

If Deck pitches, I would say Ga State has little chance to pull the upset. If someone else starts, it's anyone's game.
May 26th, 2009
6:59 pm
Danny Hall will look past Georgia State and hold Deck until Saturday. Tech will once again choke in a regional but everyone will talk about how consistent Hall's teams are and he will get another free pass. Tech's starters only pitch 4-5 innings and their bullpen is about as consistent as the Braves. Hopefully Hewitt and Hall will bring in some decent assistants one day.
May 26th, 2009
7:24 pm
Mark, we will find that out on Friday if Tech decides to hold their best pitcher assuming the State game is an easy win. State scored five runs in three innings against Jed Bradley earlier this season. It was a mid week game but Jed Bradley was the #2 starter for Tech in the ACC tournament. With two other head coaches getting replaced by DRad recently, I think Hall probably feels some pressure to win and get to Omaha this year after some recent choke jobs and not even making the tournament at all a couple of years ago.

All I hope is that those who broadcast the game, either on radio or TV, know how to put a sentence together. No double subjects, please!! Do broadcast journalism majors take English classes? I still say let the print journalism folk do the broadcasts. "Live from Turner Field, this is Mark Bradley saying 'if you can't play a sport, for gosh sakes learn to speak the language.' "

How can Tech lose to itself?
It is playing the GT evening school of commerce. Sad when they forget how they got started.

Well all you Tech fans out here taking GA State for granted, if you win this regional you will not win the CWS so don't get too excited. You are supposed to be one of the nation's premier programs and it has not looked that way since Nomar, Varitek, and Payton. I wanted to go to GT to play didn't work out but won a CWS for the school I ended up at. So in conclusion, a GA State win is better than a GT win because the upset would be great news. If GT wins its expected and they'll get clobbered later. And for those wondering why I'm up so late, I feel asleep during the Cavs game and woke up for some business. Had to comment on this because of overconfident Tech fans.
May 27th, 2009
7:50 am
That is a pretty amazing leap to call Jed the #2 starter. Starting the 2nd game in the tourney doesn't make you the 2nd best pitcher on staff. More likely, with losing the first game, Hall realized Tech was facing a longshot to get to the championship game with their fate out of their hands. If Tech wins with Jed on the mound, you have your real #2 and #3 starters available for the weekend games.
I am looking forward to the game on Friday. Its one of the better story lines of the tournament and is good for Atlanta. I of course hope the Jackets win it, but you have to be happy for State and the season they've had. Should be a great weekend of baseball.

We know exactly where we came from. Yes we were started by Dr. Wayne Kell from GT where the first class was Mining. Nobody showed up for it so he taught himself accounting got a CPA license and taught accounting, thus the GT evening school of commerce was born. I don't have a problem with it because I am a huge GT football fan. I drink my whiskey clear.
Sometimes the son grows up to beat the father. In this case because of GT, GSU is the school it is today, which is why I really admire GT.
Don't bash us because of it. Your only making yourself sound like a mutt. I really hate mutts. Show some respect.

Panther, GSU was also the Atlanta Division of the University of Georgia in the late 40s. The school has strong ties to both UGA and GT. As a GSU alum I glad to see the Baseball team playing in the tournament and the formation of the football program.

Good to see Ga. St. stepping up on the national stage. The school has several well respected degrees and sports should help the school become more well known nationally.

Speaking of how schools got started: I'm sure the School of Commerce will have no problem beating the North Avenue Trade School. A lot's changed since 1913

eye of the DAWG,
Beat Florida then come and make a point. At UGA you go nuts only to be disappointed at the end. You probably wanted a little feedback but I hate UGA so I had to respond.

Hey eye if the dawg,
Wake me when georgia gets a football program because right now FLORIDA owns uga!!!

Is CSS televising these games? I live in South Florida and CSS is probably my only hope.

Eye of the dawg….hahaha. Georgia football….what a joke. Not even state champions.
Otto, yes we were part of UGA from 1933-1957. They got us in '33 because they didn't think GT should have a business school (now GSU is ranked higher than UGA's business school in certain repects…hahaha). They then dropped us in 1957 because we were too expensive and left us to shrivel out. Luckily for GSU because of our affiliations with two regents universities it gave GSU the right to become a part of the university system of Georgia. UGA didn't nothing great for GSU, but give us that loophole that they didn't even know about when they dropped us. All of our good hero's came from GT. THWG. Nobody at GSU who knows the history likes what UGA did with GSU.
Eye of the BEAR….laughable….

I have degrees from both Tech and State but I am always, first and foremost, a Jacket. I wish State well…after we send them to the loser's bracket Friday night! Go Jackets!
May 27th, 2009
12:35 pm
I certainly enjoy Georgia fans showing up on this thread. How's it feel to get beat by the lowest seeded team ever to win the CWS title? Go back to your double wide and celebrate another Mark Richt led BCS Title…oh yeah, that didn't happen and won't.
As for Friday's game, I'll be there wearing Panther Blue. Georgia State is a program that is waking up. Considering the program was dormant for years under Coach Hurst and even shut down for 5 years (1987-1991) this is a tremndous accomplishment. We aren't supposed to be here remember.
Down with the Jackets! Go Panthers!
May 27th, 2009
12:37 pm
Eye of the Mutt….How bout them Mutts? 45-42.
May 27th, 2009
2:18 pm
As a proud Panther, I await the time when Georgia State has it's own Beat Blog displayed everyday on the front of the AJC Sports page along with Tech and UGA. We'll get there some day, I'm sure of it. Laugh now Dawgs and Jackets, but there will come a day, sooner than you think, when you two only will not be the biggest college sports story in town.
May 27th, 2009
2:25 pm
This is just the prequel when Rashanti Harris and the basketball Panthers spank on Derrick Favors and the Jackets next season and in 2015 when the Football Panthers of Conference USA beat up on the Jackets.
May 27th, 2009
3:04 pm
So UGA did to GSU what GT did to Southern Tech. All 4 have great degrees and the state should be happy to have them.
May 27th, 2009
3:13 pm
Keep dreaming Lamar. I generally have a favorable view of GSU not necessarily due to the fact that I went there, but this Panther smack talk is making me more and more hope that Tech crushes them Friday night.
May 27th, 2009
4:10 pm
Did someone just say that Southern Tech has great degrees? Laughable.
May 27th, 2009

Wow, did someone from a COLLEGE just post in a discussion about UNIVERSITIES??
May 27th, 2009

Speaking of no football programs, why is someone from Mercer even posting here?!
May 27th, 2009
5:10 pm
Yeah, no football at Emory, but no MEDICAL SCHOOL anywhere else in METRO ATLANTA!!!
May 27th, 2009
5:10 pm
Congratulations GSU. I wish you well. Just not Friday. It can only be good for the state of GA to add another competitive school in the major sports.
May 27th, 2009

How many wannabe "colleges" does the State of Georgia need?? Meanwhile, ROLL TIDE!!!!!!!
May 27th, 2009

What a classless remark about Southern Tech. Where did you go to college, sweet cheeks? Didn't think so.
May 27th, 2009

Padang-style cuisine in Bukittinggi. These restaurants have stacks of dishes with various foods in them sitting in the window (probably for way too long), and they bring several plates to your table. You take what you want (using your right hand to dish out food and eat), and pay for what you eat.

About Us
WestburyBoxOffice.com is an industry leading marketplace for Westbury concert, sports, and theater tickets. We provide event schedules, seating charts, and affordable tickets for almost every event taking place in Westbury, as well as access to events nationwide. Powered by SecureTickets.com, WestburyBoxOffice is your safe, guaranteed one-stop-shop for entertainment around Westbury and beyond.
A diverse marketplace
WestburyBoxOffice.com gives you access to a diverse ticket marketplace with a variety of seating options. The tickets you see listed on our site come from several different sources:
a.) Individual Sellers - A good portion of the tickets listed on our site come from individual sellers. An individual seller is a fan just like you that has extra tickets to sell. They list their tickets on our site for a designated price and as a result you have access to tickets that you could previously only buy on the streets outside of the venue. Access to this market is a huge advantage for a buyer.
b.) Ticket Brokers - The majority of our tickets come from licensed ticket brokers from various parts of the country. Ticket brokers buy tickets en masse and re-sell them to you, the fan. Their tickets can be more expensive but their services are extremely reliable and are a life saver for last minute shopper.
c.) Venue Tickets - Another percentage of our tickets come from the event venue itself. In this case the venue has some extra tickets to sell and decides to list them online so that they don't go unsold. These tickets are often the best value for a shopper.
How Our System Works
Buying tickets on our website is a very easy thing to do. Immediately after confirming your purchase in our secure checkout you will receive an automatically generated e-mail giving you the details of your order. Amongst these order details will be things like the order number, the event name, the time and date of the purchase, the number of tickets, the date of the event, and the seller's information. This e-mail is essentially your receipt and is proof of your order. In many cases the seller may also contact you independently to thank you for your purchase. As soon as the order is approved your tickets will be shipped via Fed Ex and will usually arrive in two or three business days. Customers are always surprised at how quickly their tickets arrive and how easy the process really is.
Your One Stop Shop
The diversity of our tickets offers you the best chance to find a great deal on tickets that might otherwise be impossible to obtain. Our website makes your ticket shopping experience much easier than it would have been in the past. Many sites specialize in tickets for particular events or venues, but are otherwise limited in their selection. The comprehensive nature of our inventory gives you the best chance to find the tickets you're looking for the first time you come to our site regardless of what you're looking for.
A Familiar [Inter]Face
We take measures every day to make our website the most easily navigated ticket site on the internet. Among the important features we've tried to incorporate in the site's design are an intuitive navigability, speedy page downloads, and an overall pleasant shopping experience. Though certain aspects of the site's design have changed slightly and will change in the future, the basics will always remain the same. Our commitment to a consistent shopping experience will help allow loyal customers to easily find their way to a certain music genre, sports team, or singer.
The Name of the Game: Security
At WestburyBoxOffice we think daily about the meaning of the word security. Not only do we want our customers to feel secure on our site, but we want them to have good reason to, and we can tell you with certainty that our site is 100 percent fraud proof. Every customer on our site can shop with complete confidence knowing that they are completely secure, meaning that all your credit information is safely stored on our servers. You can read more about how we safeguard your information both on and offline at our policies page.

Casting Crowns: Real Life Conversations
- Tuesday, October 18, 2005
It's a hot, humid June night.
A night when most good Baptists head to church for Wednesday night prayer meeting. But this is no ordinary Wednesday night. No sir. This is Wednesday night at the 2005 Southern Baptist Convention. Twelve thousand of the dedicated are gathered at Nashville's Gaylord Entertainment Center to hear SBC leaders cast the vision for the largest denomination in the United States.
Missionaries from all over the world tell stories of God at work among "the least of these." The Rev. Billy Graham's grandson is present for the unveiling of a bronze sculpture to honor such "a great Southern Baptist." A full orchestra plays on cue as a worship team leads the audience in hymns and choruses blended to suit even the most finicky worshiper. The people sing with rousing gusto, palpable fervor. The clock meanders to 7, 7:30, then approaches 8 pm. The crowd seems to grow weary of the waiting. A 1,000-voice-choir stands at the ready, every bit as eager as the crowd below, anticipating the highlight of the evening.
Now, this would be the dramatic, veil-ripping part of the event where the arena lights fade to black, music from "2001: A Space Odyssey" fills the air and a legendary band storms the stage, sweeping the audience off its feet in a rush of excitement and deafening applause.
But it didn't happen quite like that.
Oh, the crowd was swept away, alright. They couldn't have been happier if Elvis himself, guitar slung over his cape-draped shoulder, appeared before them. The applause was loud and enthusiastic. And when the band began to play, everyone under 45 began to sing along, the words as familiar and personal as a close family friend. The seven-piece band was as un-rock-star-like as a band can possibly be, as ordinary as the next-door neighbor, as average as your Uncle Jack.
Ordinary people. A real estate agent, a Christian bookstore sales clerk, a graphic artist, a video guy/janitor at the church – a group of dedicated youth workers who used their musical gifts to lead their kids in worship. This is Casting Crowns, the hottest band in Christian music. The hottest new thing by far. Christian music buyers couldn't empty store and e-shelves of its self-titled debut fast enough. In fact, Casting Crowns was the fastest- selling new Christian act of 2003 and 2004. Think platinum in less than two years. Think rare for a new artist.
Christian radio hounds around the country couldn't (and still can't) rotate "If We Are The Body," "The Voice of Truth" and "Who Am I?" fast enough, and even curmudgeonly music critics gave them props for "natural talent" and "lyrical integrity."
The 2005 GMA Music Awards bore witness with no less than 13 nominations and seven Dove Awards, including "Group of the Year," "Song of the Year for 'Who Am I?'", "Pop/Contemporary Recorded Song of the Year," "Inspirational Recorded Song of the Year," and "Songwriter of the Year" for front man Mark Hall.
And the band has performed for more than one million people.
Not bad for an eager upstart looking for Christian music stardom, but for a group of youth workers from Atlanta who set out only to make another CD of songs for their church kids, it has been a whirlwind of a surprise.
"No one is more surprised at the past couple of years than we are," guitarist Juan (pronounced 'Ju-wan') DeVevo says. "A couple of years back, we'd never thought about competing or signing a record deal or anything like that. It had never crossed our minds. And to think God had all this planned for us, just a youth band, is amazing."

By Dan from Maine on 7/1/2012 8:30:57 PM
The Allegro 5 string Acoustic-Electric Upright Bass is an amazing instrument. It plays smoothly and effortlessly, and has a really great range of tone. I like everything about it. I have owned other EUBs, but this bass outshines them all. The only problem I have is that I can't seem to put it down. I want to play it all the time.

UK Masculine Petite Brands?
Anonymous asked: I love the recent tips for shorties! I wondered if there were any shorties in the UK who could suggest UK-specific shops/websites worth checking out? I know many of the brands in the US are available here, but the selection isn't always the same, and I'm sure there are sources here I'm not aware of! Particularly for those of us who are short but curvy and looking for a more masculine look. Many thanks for any help you could offer!
Opening this up to all our UK followers! As always, I recommend Topman. - Sonia

If you are a star gazer or someone intrigued with astronomy, here's a fascinating event for you. There will be a "Total Lunar Eclipse" on April 15th 2014 at 3am EDT. It will be visible in the Australia, the Americas and Pacific.
A lunar eclipse occurs when the moon passes through the Earth's shadow. The Earth's shadow consists of 2 parts, a dark inner core called the umbra and a lighter outer part called the penumbra. The umbra may take on a range of colors from light coppery red to almost total black. For anyone up at that hour, this should be fascinating to watch and should last more than an hour.
THE ARCADE ANGEL In mid-1993, my father suffered a stroke. Months later he shared with me that he recalled leaving his physical body and rising above the room to a place where there was a great light. As he felt drawn toward that light, all of a sudden my mother who had passed on in 1974 came running towards him shouting, "It's not time yet. Go back. There are two more grandchildren coming and they are going to need you." That same day, on a Sunday afternoon, my husband, our daughters, then almost 3 and 8, were at a mall arcade where we often went mid-afternoon when we were in the area. All of a sudden out of the corner of my eye I saw a gentleman much taller than my husband (a six-footer). You couldn't miss him! He was dressed in a long white dress which appeared to be moving in a breeze but I couldn't feel any wind. This figure stared at my children. I moved a little closer to them and noticed that my husband looked very faint. I knew that he was also experiencing this same vision. Just as suddenly a woman appeared next to the tall man. I recognized her immediately as my paternal grandmother who had passed on in 1976. She smiled warmly. Then they both disappeared as quickly as they had come. Feeling a bit disoriented I called the children to tell them it was time to go. I whispered to hubby that I wanted to call my parents who lived close to the mall to see if we could stop to see them for a little bit. I always trusted my father to explain these types of visions. We went up to the street level of the mall to look for a pay phone (this was in pre-cell phone days). There was no answer. We decided to head home. Both of us were very quiet until we reached home. After getting the children settled, I finally asked hubby if he had seen what I had seen. He nodded nervously. ...

When it comes to psychic readings, many people have the notion that the one doing the reading is super human. They dial the phone with great anticipation, expecting the person on the other end to launch into a litany of prophetic utterances and insights that will blow their mind. This can certainly happen, but it is not the norm. And many end up feeling angry or disappointed when the reading winds up being slightly vague or even off the mark.
So why does this happen at times? A psychic reading is an energetic exchange; thus in order to get the most out of your reading, you have to be open and honest. If you walk into a reading and give little or no information, the reading will be vague because the psychic will have very little energy to go on.
For example, if you sit down for a reading and say something like, "what is going to happen with me and John's relationship?" The psychic may lay out some cards and ascertain that something is wrong and that there is heart break in the relationship with John. Perhaps they feel that John wants to leave this relationship. The client then exclaims, "but me and John are not together NOW!!!!!" Good point, but the psychic was asked about, "me and John's relationship," as if the relationship was still ongoing. This is quite different than saying, "will me and John get back together?" In order for the psychic to be more on point, your question has to be more to the point. And if you are purposely vague in your questions because you are trying to test the psychics abilities, the psychic will sense this on some level and the connection will be flimsy at best. No one will do their best work under the eye of one who suspects they will fail.
Another misconception that many have...

Actually, you are more than perfect. You are a conduit for that Great Immensity that creates worlds. And I can prove this to you with a simple-simple technique that will transform enemies into friends or a lover into a better lover. When used faithfully this technique works cleanly in 10 days or less. You will see rock solid results in 10 days or less.
Here's the Technique: Set aside a time at least twice a day to sit quietly and focus upon the person with whom you would like to have a better relationship. In that time of reflection, imagine this person having the very things you want yourself to have, see them having the same feelings of fulfilment you want yourself to have. That's right, imagine them having the very things you want for yourself. I'll say that again: imagine this person with whom you want better relations having the very things you want for yourself, see them feeling the fulfilment you want yourself to feel.
Example: Suppose you have a troublesome co-worker; they are always on your back, picking arguments, disagreeing, etc. In your quiet place imagine them having what you want for yourself. It doesn't matter if what you want for yourself is money, a puppy, improved Spanish speaking abilities, whatever. Imagine this co-worker having that very thing you want for yourself. Really feel them and see them having what you want for yourself. Be honest about it; really see them and feel them having the experience you want yourself to have, glowing with the joy and fulfilment you want for yourself. Do this faithfully for two weeks, twice a day, and you will see their treatment of you and attitude toward you change for the better, more in alignment with how you want them to...

To travel to the World of Spirit can sometimes be very comforting and sometimes very frightening indeed as all that we have ever known fades and we enter a zone where past, present and future blend into one, where faces and names appear at random. Some we know, some we do not. It is a place where having a companion makes the journey safer and easier. Whether through the reading of cards, interpretation of dreams or through the assistance of a clairvoyant this place is always a place to go prepared. Prepared to understand some things and to be puzzled by other things. We are not always given the whole picture. Some things may not yet be ready to be known to us as we are not yet ready to receive them. It is your complete participation that will help your reader and guide to best assist you with your journey. Being open to the unexpected is often not something we want and yet once we have entered this world we should not turn around afraid and confused for just around the bend is the happy place which you called about, the reason that you came. It is your destiny. If today was not a good day or if the person you are travelling with is not the companion you had expected, not to worry. You can always return with another guide on another day when the pieces fall in place, when the Universe is still ready to give answers if you will only receive them. And do not be afraid if your heart was not open the first or even the third time. Creator is always ready to embrace your return to the place of eternal love where your destiny is waiting. Take a look around. Become comfortable with this place called LOVE. Remember that we love you. Call us any time. We are here to assist you. No offense taken if you choose one over another. We do the same thing amongst ourselves. Different questions and circumstances require...

"Songwriting is an addiction in a way," she says. "When I sit down and write a song
it just makes sense. A lot of singer-songwriters use thousands of words and it's
all vanity. It doesn't have the ring of truth. I don't want to use clever words,
I just want the listener to get an image. I want it to have physical impact. When
I get a lovely image I get a warm feeling inside. That's the magic. Where did that
come from? How brilliant is that?"

[/quote] Wicca is a pretty new religion Gardner got some of his inspiration from the work of Crowley [/quote]
Original Message
Question: "What is Wicca? Is Wicca witchcraft?"
Answer: Wicca is a neo-pagan religion that has been growing in popularity and acceptance in the United States and Europe. There are many websites and books claiming to teach "real" Wicca, but the truth is, there is no consensus among Wiccans as to what the religion is all about. The reason for this is that Wicca, as it is practiced now, is only about 50 years old. Wicca is a belief system that Briton Gerald Gardner cobbled together in the 1940s and 1950s from a variety of religious traditions and beliefs as well as Freemason rituals. Since Gardner published several books espousing his system of worship, many offshoots and variations of Wicca have sprung up. Some Wiccans are polytheistic, worshipping more than one deity, while others worship only the "God" or the "Goddess." Still other Wiccans worship nature, and call it Gaea, after the Greek earth goddess. Some Wiccans pick and choose parts of Christian doctrine to embrace, while others totally reject Christianity. Most practitioners of Wicca believe in reincarnation.
Most Wiccans will vehemently deny that Satan is part of their pantheon, citing major doctrinal differences between themselves and Satanists. Wiccans generally promote moral relativity, disdaining labels like "good" and "evil" and "right" or "wrong." Wicca has one law or rule, called the Rede: "Do what ye will, harm ye none." At first blush, the Rede seems like complete, uninhibited personal license. You can do whatever you want, as long as no one gets hurt; however, Wiccans are quick to point out that the ripple effect of one's actions can carry far-reaching consequences. They articulate this principle in the Three-fold Law, which says, "All good that a person does to another returns three-fold in this life; harm is also returned three-fold."
One major factor that contributes to the abiding fascination with Wicca is the purported use of spells and magick (a deliberate misspelling intended to separate Wiccans from magicians and illusionists). Curiosity seekers, as well as spiritual neophytes, are most eager to delve into these mysteries. Not all Wiccans practice witchcraft, but those that do claim magick is to them what prayer is to a Christian. The difference between the two is that Wiccans claim magick is simply using their minds to control matter, or they are appealing to their favorite deity to do them a favor, while Christians call upon an omnipotent, omnipresent God to heal people and to intervene and work in their lives. Because the Rede disallows witches from hurting others and the Three-fold Law spells out the consequences for Rede-breakers, witches who practice magick prefer to call themselves "nature witches" or "white witches" to further distance themselves from Satanists.
Wicca is basically a religion that is about minding your own business and living peaceably with your neighbors and environment. Wiccans are eager to draw parallels between themselves and biblical Christianity for the sake of earning credibility, but what does the Bible have to say about this religion? You won't find the word "wicca" in the Bible, so let's evaluate the beliefs in light of what God says about them.
Wiccan spells are idolism—Romans 1:25 says, "They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshipped and served created things, rather than the Creator…" Who wants to settle for second best? In Isaiah 40, God paints a picture of how much greater the Creator is than His creation. If you are worshipping anything besides the Creator, you are not only spinning your wheels, you are guilty of idolatry.

On 6 December 2006, the democratically elected Government of Fiji was replaced following a military takeover. Shortly thereafter, the Parliament of Fiji was suspended. At the time, the Parliament of Fiji comprised two houses - the 71-member, elected House of Representatives and the 32 member, appointed Senate. The 2006 Parliament had 8 women elected to the House of Representatives and 5 women appointed to the Senate.
The current Fiji Government has announced its commitment to developing a new constitution by September 2013 and holding national elections in September 2014. On 9 March 2012, the Fiji Government announced the roadmap for a new constitution-making process. Civic education will be run from May-July 2012. Public consultations will then commence through a 5-member Constitutional Commission from July to September 2012. Two members of the Constitutional Commission are women - Ms Taufa Vakatale, the first female Deputy Prime Minister of Fiji, and Ms Christina Murray, a constitutional law expert from South Africa. From October to December 2012, the Constitutional Commission will collate public submissions and draft a Constitution. In January 2013, the draft constitution will then be submitted to a Constituent Assembly, consisting of representative civil society groups and organizations that are Fijian-registered, including faith-based organizations, national institutions, political parties, and Government. The Constituent Assembly will have 2 months to consider the draft Constitution. Once the Constituent Assembly approves the Constitution, by the end of February 2013, it will then be assented to by the President of Fiji.
The Fiji women's movement has commenced discussions on how to integrate gender issues into the envisaged constitutional and electoral reform processes. On 12 April 2012, the first National Women's Forum was convened in Suva by women's NGOs. Women's groups discussed a range of issues, including women's leadership. The final National Women's Forum Outcomes Statement called for a 50% women's quota in any new national legislature and/or a compulsory 50% candidates quota for political parties.

i added subtle sass.
I think the "women are mysterious" thing can also come from:
1) Women actually being quite clear, but not telling men what they want to hear. "She said she doesn't want to talk to me? So many mixed messages and confusing signals!"
2) Women not having cheat codes. "I tried being nice, and she didn't have sex with me. I tried being an asshole, and she didn't have sex with me. Come on, there's got to be some kind of solution to this puzzle!"
3) Women not being a hive mind. "First a woman told me that she likes guys with big muscles. Then the very next day a woman told me she thinks muscles aren't attractive at all. Make up your mind, women!"
4) An individual woman doing something confusing, and instead of asking "why is she doing this now?" men ask "why do women always do this?"

Talking Canadian
This is an old but good documentary on Canadian English: what it sounds like, where it comes from, and how it's changing, complete with interviews with Jack Chambers and other linguists, cheesy props, and someone dressed up as Rev. A. Constable Geikie.
From the description on the CBC website:
Why do English-speaking Canadians talk the way we do? Why do we say couch instead of chesterfield, and windshield instead of windscreen? How did French words like portage and prairie become part of the vocabulary, and native words like beaver and tobacco part of everyday speech?
Few of us are aware that the language we speak has less to do with conscious choice than it does with our past: when and why we came to Canada, where we settled, and the tug of war between British and American influences that has been part of our lives for centuries.
Talking Canadian is a light-hearted exploration of the way we spoke in the past, how we speak today, and how we will likely talk in the future.
yes, totally
But you can't hide.


text: I feel so lost. Just so out of touch. Today I went out with my friends and all of them talked and I just feel like I didn't belong. For the last 2 years I've been studying. Just studying. I just feel like I wasted so much time. So much time that I could have spent going to places and seeing things. I'm not saying I should not have studied. I'm just saying I should have balanced it out. Actually that is also not what I'm saying. I don't know what I'm saying. See, I'm lost. I just want to have a good time. Look good in whatever damn clothes I wear and have guys hit on me. I don't care right now how fucking shallow that sounds but I just want to feel like I belong. And not belong like "be part of a popular crowd" or some shit like that just go out with 4 or 5 friends and have a bloody good time. Is that to much to ask for? I have so many things going on in my mind I don't know how to explain it. I guess I'm just disappointed in myself. And right now I feel like it's just not going to get better, I'm just going to study for the rest of my life and not get anywhere.

TEAMS: New York Giants
The New York Football Giants look like they once again forgot that nothing is handed to you, especially in the NFL! This time it looks to be too late, needing a win against Philly, a Cowboy loss to Wash, Green Bay to beat Minnesota, and the Bears to fall to a Lions team that cannot get out of it's own way, just to make the playoffs. It was just last season where they were tested down the stretch and decided to flip the switch and turn into a nightmare that no NFL team wanted a piece of, destroying QB's everywhere while Eli Manning was on his Elite Eli mission. This season it seems that the Giants defensive line decided to take the year off while Mr. Webster has been ripped apart by opposing Quarterbacks, on the offensive side Eli has taken a step back, but it is partially if not totally due to a lack of pocket protection. In my humble opinion, the Giants are showing their character defects all over again, like back when they let Desean Jackson end their year in an #EpicFail. Y...
