Beyoncé in Atlanta: How to get last-minute tickets
Why it matters: Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter tour stop in Atlanta will occur over four days — Thursday, Friday, Sunday and Monday — at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
The latest: Ticketmaster shows seats are still available for Thursday, starting at $67.95 with an obstructed view.
Tickets for Friday, Sunday and Monday all start at or above $100.
Driving the news: Beyhive members from all over the world will descend onto Atlanta over the weekend, which likely means traffic around the stadium will be a bit chaotic.
To that end, take MARTA or book a ride-share service. If you insist on driving, you can check out parking options at Mercedes-Benz Stadium or other available parking spots around the stadium.
Wardrobe: If you're still undecided on your fit or can't find that one accessory that will make your look pop, Goodwill may be your best last-minute bet.
The nonprofit in May launched its Cowboy Goodwill fashion pop-ups, featuring curated Western wear, denim and other items.
Merch: What's a concert without great swag? If you got a ticket to see the show, you will be able to buy merch at dozens of locations inside, according to Mercedes-Benz Stadium's Instagram page.
Outdoor merch sites are located across from Gates 1 and 2 and are available to the public even if you don't have a concert ticket.
These will open at 2pm on show days, with the Gate 2 area staying open after the show.
Gate 2 will also open from noon to 6pm Saturday.
Bag policy: Visit the stadium's website for its rules on what kind of bags you can bring in (hint: small clear bags only).

I grew my billion-dollar business while raising 2 boys. We only get water when we dine out, and my oldest got a used 2014 car.
This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Kim Gravel, founder of Belle by Kim Gravel, and Love Who You Are. It has been edited for length and clarity. I was 19 when I won the Miss Georgia pageant. Even more exciting than the crown was the $100,000 salary that came with it. This was back in 1991, so that was serious money. For the first time, I felt like I was being paid not just for the task I was doing but for my talent. Since I was little, I knew that I wanted to be paid for the value I brought. My first job was washing hair at a salon. I was making something like $3 an hour, but I knew I was providing more value than I was being paid for. I wasn't just washing hair: I was talking to the ladies about their families and their churches, giving them one-on-one attention. After my year as Miss Georgia, I was hired as a Goodwill Ambassador to Japan. That came with a nice paycheck, too. I realized that if I got lots of bookings like that, I could make as much as I wanted. I started to develop my speaking and performing skills. I realized my value was whatever price tag I put on it. That realization helped me become a multimillionaire. I landed a reality TV show while I had an infant A few years later, I was married to my husband, Travis. We had an infant and a 2-year-old, and I was bored to death as a stay-at-home mom. I knew my most important job was being a mother, but I wanted more. I needed a sense of purpose. I Googled reality TV shows and found a contact for a producer. I remember sitting at home, no makeup and no bra, with spit-up on my shirt as I reached out to him. That led to a reality TV show about coaching pageants. It got picked up by Lifetime, and I was so proud to be a stay-at-home mom who had landed a television show. When the show was canceled 18 months later, I was devastated. I didn't know that would be the turning point in my life. I love running my company At the time, I wasn't thinking about myself as an entrepreneur. I just thought I had a slick mouth and a big personality, and I knew how to use them. After the show was canceled, I whined to my parents, who told me to cut it out and put on my big girl panties. My mom had an idea for soft jeans that wouldn't stretch out throughout the day. I started trying to make her vision come to life, and 18 months later, I was selling them on QVC. Today, I've created two of QVC's most successful brands. Over the last seven years, I've sold over $1 billion in clothing, and last year the company did $283 million in sales. I love that I run the company, and my husband is the chief financial officer. I'm not licensing my name or brand; I'm making decisions and developing this company. Failure has helped me learn The beautiful thing about being successful and having financial wealth is what you can do with it. Travis and I have built outdoor classrooms and have redone a girls' locker room for our local schools. We also started a nonprofit to teach girls about entrepreneurship. I grew up middle class, but my dad, a banker, was cheaper than dirt. He taught us to save 70% of our money and live and give with the remaining 30%. In some ways, I'm still cheaper than dirt. If our family goes out to dinner, we drink water or get one soda to share. My 16-year-old got a hand-me-down car when he got his license: a 2014 Nissan Rogue. I try to be like the millionaire next door. Throughout my life, I've learned more from my failures than I have from my successes. If my show hadn't been canceled, I wouldn't have started making products. I want my sons to experience failure, but I'm worried that they're part of a generation that doesn't know how to fail well. I don't want them to experience serious failures, like mental health issues or financial scams. But if they don't make the sports team, I'm not the parent calling the school to express outrage. Failure is our friend in finances, romance, and life. It's where we learn.

Night sky lessons from a leading astronomer, and a floating spa on Vancouver Island
Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up Havn Saunas, located in a renovated World War II barge (pictured here), offers an unplugged, pampering experience in the heart of Victoria, B.C., with cedar saunas, cold plunges, Jacuzzis, a salt scrub room, and a cozy relaxation room. (Kari Bodnarchuk) Advertisement THERE Visit this floating spa on Vancouver Island Step off a wharf in downtown Victoria, B.C., and onto a historic barge that's been transformed into a Scandinavian-inspired floating wellness sanctuary. Havn Saunas, located in a renovated World War II barge, offers an unplugged (no phones allowed) pampering experience in the heart of the city with cedar saunas, cold plunges, Jacuzzis, a salt scrub room, and a cozy relaxation room. The two-story ship, built in Tacoma in 1943, was renovated in part using old-growth cedar collected along beaches on Vancouver Island. Relax in the rooftop mineral pools and watch water taxis as they crisscross the harbor, small float planes resting at a nearby dock, and views of the city's grandiose Parliament Buildings and Fairmont Empress Hotel. Then order a rejuvenating elixir and healthy snack at the first-floor café and recline on oversize loungers. Anyone 19 and older can enjoy Havn's hot-and-cold therapy experience. One of the many highlights: The salt scrub room, where you can scoop fine-grained salt from a barrel and use it for an exfoliating body scrub. Guests book a two- or three-hour time slot, which helps prevent the facility from getting overcrowded. Rates: approximately $67 for a three-hour entry during the day and $60 for a two-hour pass at night (times vary). Open year-round. , Advertisement Sonos has released its first-ever headphones, the Sonos Ace (pictured here). Sonos EVERYWHERE Enjoy superb sound with these headphones Whether traveling by train, plane, or automobile, consider the Sonos Ace headphones, which deliver outstanding high-fidelity sound and one of the best experiences I've had with Active Noise Cancellation technology. The over-the-ear Bluetooth headphones — Sonos' first foray into the headphone market — incorporate spatial audio with head tracking, meaning super realistic three-dimensional sound (you'll feel like you're in the middle of a theater) and top-notch ANC features that tamps down the sound of engines and unwanted ambient noise; set it for Aware mode if you need to maintain awareness of your surroundings. Music sounds well-balanced and crisp with robust bass that's not overly punchy. The headphones have a smooth and easy-to-use switch that lets you adjust volume, pause sound, skip forward or backward for songs, and answer, decline, or end calls. They also have built-in sensors that pause playback when you take them off and resume when you put the headphones back on. The Sonos Ace hug your head and offer enough spaciousness on the ear cups so they're comfortable on long-haul flights (those ear cups are magnetically attached and can easily be replaced if needed — a handy feature). The headphones weigh about 11 ounces, have swivel ear cups so you can easily pack them for travel (in the included hard case or in your bag), and come with a USB-C-to-3.5mm cable that lets you plug the Ace into the headphone port on your smartphone or computer for a wired option. Their internal battery lasts up to 30 hours so you can enjoy them while crossing the globe. $449. Advertisement KARI BODNARCHUK Kari Bodnarchuk can be reached at

Jeezy Claims JAY-Z Axed His Verse On Beyoncé's 'Drunk In Love'
Atlanta rhymer Jeezy has opened up about being removed from Beyoncé's 'Drunk In Love' by her hubby and fellow artist, JAY-Z. The Southern spitter shared the reveal on Carmelo Anthony's 7PM In Brooklyn podcast, where he recalled writing for the Beyoncé album track and says he ultimately 'dropped the ball.' Hov also did him the courtesy of letting him know that his verse had been removed and that he, instead, would hop on the mid-tempo hit. 'I dropped the ball when I wrote my verse for 'Drunk In Love' for Beyoncé,' Jeezy recalled. 'Hov called me. He's like, 'I took you off the song. By the way, I'm on there.' I was like, 'I figured that.'' he revealed, adding that the lost verse is, 'on someone's drive. Tell Bey we need to put that out. It's some vintage.' Jeezy went on to reveal that, despite having several collaborations, he has only physically been in the studio with JAY-Z once, and it was during the 'Drunk In Love' writing session. According to the Snowman, he may have gone a little too hard with his verse, resulting in it being replaced. 'He came in the room and she's like, 'You got something for this?' You know, I'm going in. It sounded crazy. This is her song, but I'm just trying to go hard. He probably like, 'Oh nah. We no putting that out.'' Check out Jeezy as he discusses 'Drunk In Love' and his relationship with JAY below.
