For 10 days in January – every January, really – the eyes of the film community turn to the snow-capped mountains of Park City, Utah as Hollywood brings its best and brightest to the Sundance Film Festival. Yet, Sundance can be an unpredictable crap shoot. For every Brooklyn, Dope or The Diary of a Teenage Girl, there's an experimental headscratcher that makes you wonder how certain movies get invited to such a big stage.
Now that the dust (or snowflakes, I suppose) is starting to settle on the 2016 Sundance Film Festival, these are the five titles that generated the loudest buzz. Some will continue to work the film-festival circuit, stopping in Austin for South By Southwest or New York for the Tribeca Film Festival. Others will go on the shelf until October or November, so they can contend for Oscars and other year-end awards. But when these five movies make it to your town, make sure that you find the time to screen them.
John Carney makes joyous, crowd-pleasing, romanticized and heartfelt movies that are rooted in distinct, memorable musical choices. Once you realize he's the mind behind Once and Begin Again, you get an idea of what to expect out of Sing Street. And yet, even with that knowledge, we were surprised by the outright raves for the director's latest, which follows an Irish teen who recruits his outcast friends in the 1980s to start his own band. Why? Because of a girl, of course. ScreenCrush says that the film's "sheer joy and enthusiasm is so infectious it's very hard to not clap, cry and, yeah, jump out of your seat." Sign us up. The Weinstein Company picked up Sing Street, but so far have only given it a March 17 release date in Ireland and the UK. Stay tuned, U.S. crowds.
From the upbeat to the downtrodden. Kenneth Lonergan's Manchester by the Sea is, by all accounts, a devastatingly hard and heartbreaking drama about an uncle (Casey Affleck) tasked with raising his nephew after the boy's father passes away. The film met near-universal praise, particularly for Affleck's work, with Peter Howell of the Toronto Star, exclaiming that the actor "demands Best Actor consideration for his soulful depiction of a broken father who returns to his seaside Massachusetts hometown for a family funeral that will reopen old wounds." Manchester was sold for nearly $10 million to Amazon. The film's distribution is still being worked out.
Speaking of high-dollar deals, Nate Parker's The Birth of a Nation set new records are Sundance when it sold to Fox Searchlight for $17.5 million. If Birth ends up being the Oscar contender that analysts think it can be, that price tag may look like a bargain. The Birth of a Nation is a biopic of Nate Parker, a slave who led a revolt in Virginia in 1831. As the Academy deals with diversity issues, expect a strong awards push for Birth at the end of this year.
Not all buzz is positive. Swiss Army Man, starring Daniel Radcliffe and Paul Dano, was deemed so bad that audience members walked out in droves. Why? Well, I'll let our own Corey's description break it down. "Swiss Army Man revolves around a lost traveler played by Paul Dano. During his journey, he finds himself on a beach where a corpse, played by Daniel Radcliffe himself, washes ashore. That corpse becomes his traveling companion, and it continually passes gas throughout the 90 minute bizarre romp." Yep. Fart jokes. Endless fart jokes. But the feedback on Swiss Army Man is so bad, it almost makes this movie a must-see. Right?
The coming-of-age genre was alive and well at Sundance this year (though, to be honest, that festival traditionally shines a bright light on those types of stories), and Chad Hartigan's Morris From America received its fair share of raves. The twist on this one? The story follows a 13-year-old American kid whose father moves him to Germany, forcing him to figure out how to fit in. Craig Robinson (The Office, Hot Tub Time Machine) collected critical love, and the movie in general was adored. It sounds like the ideal Sundance Film Festival movie, and we'll see it for ourselves once A24 picks the right release date.


Today we are going to take a look at how to crochet your very own caterpillar toy.
This pattern is simple, fun and very versatile.
In this article I will share my crochet pattern and show you how to make a copy of the caterpillar I produced.
I will also give you some advice for making your own variations on the basic pattern.
I have a feeling that this will be one of the longer equipment lists that I have written for a pattern. So for an abbreviated bullet pointed version, just flick down to the bottom of this section to get the over-view.
The crochet caterpillar pattern is ideal for using up your slightly longer yarn scraps, and this is exactly what I did.
The yarns I chose were the remainders of some partially crocheted skeins of Women's Institute yarn.
If you would like to copy these exactly, then you will need to buy 100g each of Women's Institute Premium Acrylic yarn in Teal, Light Purple and Green.
You will also need approximately 50g of black yarn to cover the antenna.
I used Women's Institute Soft & Silky 4ply Black yarn.
You will need a 4mm hook ( I used a soft grip hook, as I find these more comfortable when doing smaller stitches), some sharp scissors and importantly for this pattern a yarn needle.
Although you can get away without one for a lot of my patterns, this one requires stitching for the facial features and sewing the separate sections of the caterpillar toy together.
I have a few different yarn needles, but my preference for this pattern is a small sized plastic yarn needle.
I stuffed my crochet caterpillar with toy stuffing, and if you are going to give this toy to a child then I recommend you do the same.
You can however if you choose also stuff this toy with yarn scraps, just make sure that they are not colour which clashes with the caterpillar sections or is too bright, or it might show through the stitches of his body.
In addition to the expected crochet equipment, you will also need three pipe cleaners.
They will be used for the antenna and a central spine to support the toy and allow you to pose it in a more caterpillar-like position.
The ones I used were from a packet marked 'chenille stems', from Hobbycraft.
I recommend getting a similar source of pipe cleaners, as they are designed with crafts and kids in mind so they tend to be a more appropriate quality.
You will also find it helpful to have a stitch marker or two to hand, if you have any distractions around you whilst you are crocheting. (The number of times I have lost count due to unexpected interruptions…).
I have chatted on a bit here, so this is a brief summary.
When you have gathered your kit together, you will be ready to begin!
This caterpillar is compiled from individually crocheted sections, which are then slotted together with a central 'spine' pipe cleaner.
This will add stability to the structure, and let you pose it however you want.
Remember, when you create your own toys that they may not be suitable to be played with by under 3's as they haven't been safety tested and could be a choke hazard. Supervised use is advised.
The pattern for the crochet caterpillar's head begins with a magic circle. It's the only time you will need to do one in this pattern as a whole, but I highly recommend that if you are not familiar with it you have a few practices and make sure that you get it right.
Closing the magic circle will make sure that the top of your caterpillar toy's head is sealed and not exposing his stuffing in the most obvious place.
This pattern builds as a continuous spiral, so you will not need to slip stitch and chain at the end of each row.
Simply continue on from the magic circle, working into the consecutive stitch each time.
I have shown the total stitches in each row in brackets.
I recommend sticking your stitch marker into the last stitch of the row when you finish one, so that you don't lose count as you increase.
Note: when I refer to dc this is the US term – if you are unsure, check out this article's US vs UK explanation.
Loosen your yarn so that your stitches don't unravel, but leave the tail attached to the skein.
Take two pipe cleaners and wind them together. At each end twist firmly and bend over, to make a small smooth ball.
Ensure that you have not left any sharp ends potentially exposed. If in doubt, use some needle nose pliers to pinch the end and twist it against itself.
Put a small pink of stuffing into the caterpillar's head, then insert one end of the pipe cleaners on top of the pinch of stuffing. Pad stuffing around it.
Make sure not to over-stuff the head, but equally ensure that it is full enough to give a spherical appearance.
When you are happy with your stuffing quantity, slip stitch into the last stitch you made. Then cut off a long tail of yarn and attach your needle.
Sew through each of the eight top row stitches, and pull the opening close like a draw-string bag.
Place the head and spine to one side, with the long tail still loose for later attaching the neck segment.
The crochet caterpillar toy's antenna are nice and simple to put together.
First look at your caterpillar from the top, looking straight down at the centre of your original magic circle.
Take one pipe cleaner and insert it into the outside of the second row, the equivalent of one row behind the middle. Pull it through and out at the even point on the other side of his head.
Make sure that it sits with an equal amount of pipe cleaner exposed at each end.
To make the antenna look vaguely realistic, but also to prevent potential sharp ends, tightly wind the pipe cleaner into a spiral at either side.
Starting from the caterpillar's head, wind the black yarn around the antenna. Leaving just the spiral end exposed and white. You will need to wrap the yarn up and down at least twice to make sure that there isn't any more white exposed.
When you have finished one side, thread the yarn needle with your yarn and take it through to the other antenna. Repeat the process at this side.
When both sides look black, sew the yarn back and forth to each side to secure it, before tying off.
I made the caterpillar's face simply by sewing the features in place. You can decide where you think the eyes look best, or copy those shown in my photographs. I recommend beginning your stitches by passing the needle through the antenna entrance point, so as to leave no obvious entry point for the black yarn.
You can close it off at the same point.
If you have easy access to safety eyes then they would be a great addition, but don't worry if you don't. Just use the remainder of your black yarn that you used to wrap the antenna.
You will need to make seven separate sections for your caterpillar's body. Three small, and four large.
The large sections will make up the areas that you will attach your caterpillar toy's legs too.
The small will become the neck, rear end and middle segment.
The main thing to remember with these segments is to begin each with the chain circle method, not the magic circle as before.
You will need to have an open gap for the pipe cleaner to be inserted through, for all but the last sphere.
Make four segments of this size – two purple, one green and one blue.
Row 4 to 5 – Dc once into each stitch for two rows length. Stitch mark before you begin so that you don't have to keep count.
Slip stitch into the last stitch of the row, and cut off leaving a long tail for sewing in later.
Make two from this large pattern in purple, one in green and another in blue.
Make three of this size – one purple, one green and one blue.
Make one in each colour.
Now that you have made all the main body parts of your crochet caterpillar toy, you can begin to join them together.
Lay out all of the composite pieces together, and work out the order you want to attach them in. Remember, you will have a serious fiddle to change them once you have started sewing, so make it easy for yourself to get it right.
Take your head and pipe-cleaner spine, and slot the neck section onto it leading with your initial chain hole.
Use the tail thread from your head section to sew the next piece.
Weave through both to join them together around in a circle, inserting the needle through the first rows.
Remember there are no strict rules when it comes to finishing off your crochet toys.
This is the part where you can really play around, changing the order of the segments and/or quantity of filling as you go, to get the look that you want.
For example different amounts of stuffing can make the same sized segments have a slightly altered appearance. I left one of mine a little emptier so that I could compress it into a more oval shape nearer the centre of the body.
When your caterpillar is joined together all that remains is to add the little feet!
Your finished caterpillar will have eight feet, two under each large section. I leave these until the very last thing to add, as you can then be sure of where exactly is the right place to attach them.
Use your black yarn to make each individual foot.
Take a yarn needle and sew through each of the eight remaining stitches, to close with the draw string method. Unlike the bodily segments the feet will be unstuffed.
When the foot is closed, insert your needle through the centre of the foot. Your foot will look like a flat pad under the body segment. Sew two to each segment when they are all complete.
This pattern is one that is super simple to customise.
The easiest way to be creative with your own crochet creature is to use different coloured yarns. I wouldn't recommend using a different weight of yarn, so make sure that you select from a double knit (dk) range. But colour wise you can pretty much go crazy.
I think it would look really fun in a rainbow pattern, which I think is what I will do for my next caterpillar.
You can also play around with the facial features to give different looks. Changing the shape of the eyes can give a toy a whole new expression.
If you are a confident crocheter you could also try replicating the pattern with a different stitch. I think I am going to give it a go with the v-stitch next – so watch this space for some more photos.
I hope you enjoy this pattern, and making it your own.


Your personal stylist in Milan, this time from Venice, shows you the 5 "please-don't" looks at the 73rd Film Festival 2016.
The most shocking moment on the red carpet was when the two models Giulia Salemi and Dayane Mello arrived accompanied by the stylist Matteo Evandro Manzini and had let's just say …. embarrassing wardrobe malfunctions.
They were attending the premiere of 'The Young Pope'.
1. Dayane Mello was wearing a hot pink off-the-shoulder dress with puff sleeves, slit to the waist.
Unfortunately, both looked very tacky and not original.
Before them in fact, Bella Hadid was one of the most-talked about at Cannes Festival for her red daring Alexandre Vauthier couture gown and earlier, in 2012 the italian showgirl Belen Rodriguez at Sanremo left a lasting impression in a Fausto Puglisi gown.
3. Director and screenwriter Fien Troch attends the photocall of "Home" in a sheer black long-sleeved top over denim short shorts. Such a pity, such a beautiful smart woman with such a bad taste in clothes. Give me a call next time!
4. Hofit Golan attends the premiere of "Franca: Chaos And Creation" wearing a sheer gold lamé dress with plunging neckline split to the waist. Too much and again too much!
5. Italian actress and model Matilde Gioli attends the premiere of "Franca: Chaos And Creation" in a black sheer dress with plunging neckline. She is so talented and fresh, i really don't understand why of this terrible look.
Well what can I say more? This ladies need a stylist!

Q: i got ibfk_5 when trying input forreign key to table I have structure table like this.
alt text http://img709.imageshack.us/img709/3315/stucture.png
the problem is :
When i want to input data to "index" table. I got this error.

com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException:
  Cannot add or update a child row: a
  foreign key constraint fails
  (test.index, CONSTRAINT
  index_ibfk_5 FOREIGN KEY (b_FK)
  REFERENCES b (Id_B))

When i remove the relation index and b. it's working fine.
i using same way for a_Fk, and c_Fk. but only b_FK which have problem.
Anyone know how to solve this? thx b4
FYI : i using java, net bean 6.8, mySql (Xampp V.3.2.0.1)

A: You are inserting a value in column b_FK of table index that does not exist in table b, Id_B column.
Perhaps you should make sure to insert data in tables a, b, and c and only then in index.
Also, if your b_FK column is something like not null default 0, change it to accept null for whenever you need to save a row to index table with an empty b_FK.
As extraneon said in his comment, it always help to provide more data, we can't guess these details ourselves.

Q: Axios requests in the loop I have the REST Api and response looks like this:
{
  "wordText" : "hello",
  "transcription" : "[həˈloʊ]",
  "pronunciation" : null,
  "picture" : null,
  "_links" : {
    "self" : {
      "href" : "http://localhost:8081/api/words/1"
    },
    "word" : {
      "href" : "http://localhost:8081/api/words/1"
    },
    "examples" : {
      "href" : "http://localhost:8081/api/words/1/examples"
    },
    "translates" : {
      "href" : "http://localhost:8081/api/words/1/translates"
    },
    "wordSet" : {
      "href" : "http://localhost:8081/api/words/1/wordSet"
    }
  }
}

And I want to get word and after that to load translates using link in body. My current code:
let wordlist = [];
      Vue.axios.get('/wordsets/1/words').then(response => {
          return response.data._embedded.words;
      }).then(words => {
        words.map(word => {
          wordlist.push(word)
        })
        //commit('LOAD_WORD_LIST', words);
      })

      wordlist.map(word => {
        Vue.axios.get(word._links.translates.href).then(response => {
          word.translates = response.data._embedded.translates;
          return word;
        })
      })

      console.log(wordlist);

But wordlist doesn't changed... Also I tried to execute another axios call in then() function, but the word.translates is underfind

A: When you map over you wordlist it is still an empty array, because this
Vue.axios.get('/wordsets/1/words').then(response => {
          return response.data._embedded.words;
      }).then(words => {
        words.map(word => {
          wordlist.push(word)
        })
      })

is asynchronous and this
wordlist.map(word => {
        Vue.axios.get(word._links.translates.href).then(response => {
          word.translates = response.data._embedded.translates;
          return word;
        })
      })

is a synchronous map
Try running it this way
Vue.axios.get('/wordsets/1/words').then(response => {
    return response.data._embedded.words;
}).then(words => {
  return Promise.all(words.map(word => {
    return Vue.axios.get(word._links.translates.href)
    })
  )
}).then((response) => console.log(response))

This snippet will do just what you wanted, get the translations, try running it, it should console.log them all. But this is messy so I really advise into async/await approach, it can make it more readable

In light of a landmark Supreme Court decision in 2014, The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has ordered banks to review old claims before the August 2019 PPI deadline.
The City Regulator has warned banks that if they fail to cope with the influx of new Payment Protection Insurance (PPI) claims they will receive a heavy fine.
PPI, the UK's largest financial scandal, was introduced to cover customers with loans should they struggle to cover loan repayments due to the inability to work from job loss or being too ill to work. However, many banks sold PPI to customers who didn't need it.
The FCA has reported that an estimated 64 million Payment Protection Insurance policies were sold to around 30 million customers between 1990 and 2010. Financial Institutions have already paid over £30billion in compensation with Lloyds Banking Ground contributing around £17billion.

Then set goal as: "jboss-as:deploy clean"
It will deploy war on JBoss server.

At Issue: Sept. 25 — Feeding Our Future charges, OLA reports and the latest on the governor's race
This week on "At Issue," we examine where taxpayer money is going and who's keeping track of how it's spent.
On Tuesday, U.S. Attorney Andrew Luger announced charges against Feeding Our Future Executive Director Aimee Bock and dozens of others in an alleged $250 million fraud investigation.
Gov. Tim Walz responded to critics who say his administration should have done more to stop what the Department of Justice calls the largest pandemic fraud scheme in the country. He claimed the Department of Education tried to stop payments to the organization but the state's hands were tied by a court order to resume payments — an assertion that led a Ramsey County judge to issue his own response seeking to correct the record.
The Office of the Legislative Auditor was busy this week, too, presenting its findings on how the Minnesota Department of Human Services distributed pandemic homelessness grants and releasing its audit of how the Minnesota Department of Health monitored $200 million in grants to health care organizations and nursing homes.
Plus, our political analysts discuss the lack of televised debates in this year's gubernatorial election as many Minnesotans are already casting their ballots.

Obesity is a major physical health problem resulting in diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, joint disorders and early death. Emotional problems of depression, anxiety, and embarrassment are suffered along with limitations in social, family, and marital relationships. The tool of bariatric surgery to empower persons to better face and gain control of their weight problem is now available in the Tallahassee area.
Many insurance companies provide coverage for this procedure and require a mental health assessment to help assure that persons are good candidates who will be able to be compliant with the necessary behavioral changes to attain success.
At Impact Behavioral Health, we are offering these assessments. Our assessments encompass all of the areas of a general mental health assessment plus special attention to additional areas.

The founder of Girls in Tech offers first-hand accounts of the realities of startup life, with the very best advice from top women entrepreneurs.

In Tech Boss Lady, Adriana Gascoigne dives into the gritty, raw side of startups.

The result: a no-nonsense guide for the entrepreneur, intrapreneur and Tech Boss Lady within each of us.

The Gift of Struggle: Life-Changing Lessons About Leading by Bobby Herrera, Bard Press
Bobby Herrera shares twelve stories from his leadership journey as co-founder and CEO of Populus Group.
Every leader has stories about the challenges they have faced and struggles they have overcome. In the moment, those situations require strength, patience, perseverance and courage. With time, those struggles provide us lessons for how to be better leaders. Bobby Herrera learned to see those struggles as gifts. As the co-founder and CEO of Populus Group, Bobby never imagined the challenges of building a $500 million organization that serves tens of thousands of people. Throughout his life, he experienced the divergence between the intentional leader he wanted to be, and the less engaged version of him that showed up at the office every day. One day at a company meeting, he decided to share a story about one of his first struggles as a young adult. That story, a pivotal experience that had transformed Bobby's life, inspired his employees with its radical transparency, humility and the idealism of Bobby's dreams for the company. In The Gift of Struggle, Bobby shares twelve of those stories from his leadership journey. Each chapter shares the details of the story, the broader lesson any leader can apply, a set of questions to reflect on, and an afterword for how the story later unfolded in Bobby's life. Building on Bobby's efforts, this book inspires readers to find their own stories, share their gifts of struggle with others, and become the leader they imagine they can be.
Master Your Motivation: Three Scientific Truths for Achieving Your Goals by Susan Fowler, Berrett-Koehler
If you want to accomplish what's important to you, discipline and willpower won't get you where you need to go. In this iconoclastic new book, Susan Fowler reveals compelling insights and actions to help you master and maintain your motivation.
Motivation is at the heart of everything you do and everything you want to do but don't. Unfortunately, the ways we typically motivate ourselves don't work. Relying on sheer determination eventually becomes exhausting—it's not sustainable. And even setting goals can backfire—if you're not setting them for the right reasons.
Susan Fowler says motivation is energy, and what matters is the quality, not the quantity. Traditional "motivators" such as fear, guilt, or the promise of a reward provide low-quality, short-term energy. Drawing on the latest empirical research, she proves that high-quality, optimal motivation is a skill that you can learn and apply.
Science tells us that satisfying three basic needs—for choice, connection, and competence—is essential to optimal motivation. You need to feel like you've picked your path, not that you're being driven down it. Your goal should be linked to people or a purpose meaningful to you. And you want to continually learn and grow.
Through practical exercises and eye-opening stories, Fowler shows you how to identify and shift the quality of your motivation. The skill to master your motivation is important—it may be your greatest opportunity to evolve, grow in wisdom, and be the light the world so desperately needs.
Flex: The Art and Science of Leadership in a Changing World by Jeffrey Hull, PhD, TarcherPerigee
From one of the world's preeminent leadership coaches, an insightful, indispensable guide to effective leadership.
For the first time, leadership expert Jeffrey Hull shares the secrets, strategies, and science underlying his, and his clients', successes. Interweaving real-life stories with practical tips and the latest evidence-based research, he equips readers with the insights they need to thrive in today's world.
We are in the age of the post-heroic leader. Once, to move up the corporate ladder and succeed at the top, you simply had to set goals, motivate the troops, delegate to underlings, and groom a successor—probably one who looked and behaved just like you. But this white knight has become an anachronism. Whether a person is twenty-five or fifty, if they're leading a team now, chances are that they're managing a kaleidoscope of people from a variety of cultures, across a range of ages, all of whom are wired together 24/7. These changing demographics and structures have led to a seismic shift in terms of the tools needed to successfully manage and grow within a company: charisma and strategic thinking abilities now matter less than qualities such as vulnerability and relatability.
Based on his popular classes with Harvard Medical School physicians and New York University business students, Hull has identified the six key elements that leaders in this new workplace need to succeed, known as F.I.E.R.C.E.: Flexibility, Intentionality, Emotional Intelligence, Realness, Collaboration, and Engagement. From start-ups to universities to Fortune 500 companies, he's been able to help leaders across the board develop the skill sets that have advanced their careers and won them accolades.
Dignity: Seeking Respect in Back Row America by Chris Arnade, Sentinal
With stark photo essays and unforgettable true stories, Chris Arnade cuts through "expert" pontification on inequality, addiction, and poverty to allow those who have been left behind to define themselves on their own terms.
After abandoning his Wall Street career, Chris Arnade decided to document poverty and addiction in the Bronx. He began interviewing, photographing, and becoming close friends with homeless addicts, and spent hours in drug dens and McDonald's. Then he started driving across America to see how the rest of the country compared. He found the same types of stories everywhere, across lines of race, ethnicity, religion, and geography.
The people he got to know, from Alabama and California to Maine and Nevada, gave Arnade a new respect for the dignity and resilience of what he calls America's Back Row—those who lack the credentials and advantages of the so-called meritocratic upper class. The strivers in the Front Row, with their advanced degrees and upward mobility, see the Back Row's values as worthless. They scorn anyone who stays in a dying town or city as foolish, and mock anyone who clings to religion or tradition as naïve.
As Takeesha, a woman in the Bronx, told Arnade, she wants to be seen as she sees herself: "a prostitute, a mother of six, and a child of God." This book is his attempt to help the rest of us truly see, hear, and respect millions of people who've been left behind.
The Beautiful No: And Other Tales of Trial, Transcendence, and Transformation by Sheri Salata, HarperWave
The former executive producer of The Oprah Winfrey Show and co-host of the popular podcast series This is Fifty with Sheri + Nancy shares candid insights and transformational wisdom from her storybook career and her dramatic middle of life reinvention.
What happens when you've dedicated decades to your dream job but left all your other dreams gathering dust on the shelf?
This was the question facing Sheri Salata. For over twenty years, Sheri worked first on The Oprah Winfrey Show and then on the OWN cable network turnaround. It was a storybook career that came with enormous rewards—and ultimately huge self-inflicted costs, leaving her emotionally and physically depleted.
After years of telling other people's stories and inspiring them to turn their lives around, Sheri decided it was time to "produce" her own life transformation. With her 50th birthday in the rearview mirror, she embarked on a journey of radical self-care.
In The Beautiful No, Sheri takes a tender and unflinching look at her career, her love life, her spirituality, her body, her entire life journey, inviting readers to join her as she creates a personal recipe for living the life of her dreams. Armed with everything she's learned from working with some of the most prolific wisdom keepers of our time, she shares how she began to rebuild the pillars of her life.
Packed with practical gems and laugh-out-loud moments, Sheri's story is a blueprint of personal renewal and everyday magic. Building on the inspiring insights of bestsellers such as Eat, Pray, Love, Wild, and A Year of Yes, The Beautiful No makes clear it's never too late to live the life or your dreams.
Agent of Influence: How to Use Spy Skills to Persuade Anyone, Sell Anything, and Build a Successful Business by Jason Hanson, Dey Street Books
Discover how to use proven spy techniques to bolster your business strategies—from self-advocation to selling to interviewing—and ultimately make more money with this unique guide from the winner of Shark Tank and bestselling author of Spy Secrets That Can Save Your Life.
Spies communicate in code and employ a range of techniques to survive in diverse environments. But to be effective they must be business savvy—they must know how to successfully persuade others. In fact, intelligence agents are among the best salesmen in the world.
Whether we realize it or not, each one of us is a salesman. Every day, you sell yourself—your talents, your value, and your ideas to colleagues, to friends, and even to your partner. At the office you maneuver in code to receive a promotion, a higher salary, professional recognition. Now, you can learn to sell yourself even better.
In Agent of Influence, Jason Hanson, a former CIA special agent and founder of Spy Escape School, reveals how anyone can use spy tactics for increased success, from learning how to strategically plan your day to mastering the steps you'll need to embrace challenges and set achievable, personal goals. He teaches you how to develop a winning sales personality and target the perfect business opportunity using the SADR cycle—"spotting," "assessing," "developing," and "recruiting." With this invaluable and unique handbook, you will become a more productive, confidant professional or entrepreneur.
In our evolving age of entrepreneurship, corporate careers, and self-run businesses, Jason's message will appeal to those looking for a competitive leg up, and who entrust the insider secrets of spy practice to take them there.
The Weather Machine: A Journey Inside the Forecast by Andrew Blum, Ecco
From the acclaimed author of Tubes, a lively and surprising tour through the global network that predicts our weather, the people behind it, and what it reveals about our climate and our planet.
The weather is the foundation of our daily lives. It's a staple of small talk, the app on our smartphones, and often the first thing we check each morning. Yet behind all these humble interactions is the largest and most elaborate piece of infrastructure human beings have ever constructed—a triumph of both science and global cooperation. But what is the weather machine, and who created it?
In The Weather Machine, Andrew Blum takes readers on a fascinating journey through the people, places, and tools of forecasting, exploring how the weather went from something we simply observed to something we could actually predict. As he travels across the planet, he visits some of the oldest and most important weather stations and watches the newest satellites blast off. He explores the dogged efforts of forecasters to create a supercomputer model of the atmosphere, while trying to grasp the ongoing relevance of TV weather forecasters.
In the increasingly unpredictable world of climate change, correctly understanding the weather is vital. Written with the sharp wit and infectious curiosity Andrew Blum is known for, The Weather Machine pulls back the curtain on a universal part of our everyday lives, illuminating our changing relationships with technology, the planet, and our global community.
Life Finds a Way: What Evolution Teaches Us About Creativity by Andreas Wagner, Basic Books
How the principles of biological innovation can help us overcome creative challenges in art, business, and science.
In Life Finds a Way, biologist Andreas Wagner reveals the deep symmetry between innovation in biological evolution and human cultural creativity. Rarely is either a linear climb to perfection--instead, "progress" is typically marked by a sequence of peaks, plateaus, and pitfalls. For instance, in Picasso's forty-some iterations of Guernica, we see the same combination of small steps, incessant reshuffling, and large, almost reckless, leaps that characterize the way evolution transformed a dinosaur's grasping claw into a condor's soaring wing. By understanding these principles, we can also better realize our own creative potential to find new solutions to adversity.
Ultimately, Life Finds a Way offers a new framework for the nature of creativity, enabling us to better adapt, grow, and change in art, business, or science—that is, in life.
One Giant Leap: The Impossible Mission That Flew Us to the Moon by Charles Fishman, Simon & Schuster
The remarkable story of the trailblazers and the ordinary Americans on the front lines of the epic mission to reach the moon.
President John F. Kennedy astonished the world on May 25, 1961, when he announced to Congress that the United States should land a man on the Moon by 1970. No group was more surprised than the scientists and engineers at NASA, who suddenly had less than a decade to invent space travel.
When Kennedy announced that goal, no one knew how to navigate to the Moon. No one knew how to build a rocket big enough to reach the Moon, or how to build a computer small enough (and powerful enough) to fly a spaceship there. No one knew what the surface of the Moon was like, or what astronauts could eat as they flew there. On the day of Kennedy's historic speech, America had a total of fifteen minutes of spaceflight experience—with just five of those minutes outside the atmosphere. Russian dogs had more time in space than U.S. astronauts. Over the next decade, more than 400,000 scientists, engineers, and factory workers would send 24 astronauts to the Moon. Each hour of space flight would require one million hours of work back on Earth to get America to the Moon on July 20, 1969.
Fifty years later, One Giant Leap is the sweeping, definitive behind-the-scenes account of the furious race to complete one of mankind's greatest achievements. It's a story filled with surprises—from the item the astronauts almost forgot to take with them (the American flag), to the extraordinary impact Apollo would have back on Earth, and on the way we live today.
Charles Fishman introduces readers to the men and women who had to solve 10,000 problems before astronauts could reach the Moon. From the research labs of MIT, where the eccentric and legendary pioneer Charles Draper created the tools to fly the Apollo spaceships, to the factories where dozens of women sewed spacesuits, parachutes, and even computer hardware by hand, Fishman captures the exceptional feats of these ordinary Americans. One Giant Leap is the captivating story of men and women charged with changing the world as we knew it—their leaders, their triumphs, their near disasters, all of which led to arguably the greatest success story, and the greatest adventure story, of the twentieth century.
Lean Out: The Truth About Women, Power, and the Workplace by Marissa Orr, HarperCollins Leadership
Marissa Orr, Facebook and Google veteran, explains why our efforts to close the gender gap have failed and posits that overhauling the business world's paradigm of a "successful leader" will result in greater diversity in corporate leadership and foster healthier work environments for both women and men.
After Orr, a single mother of three, spent fifteen years working at today's top tech giants like Facebook and Google, she became frustrated with the companies' efforts to promote more women. The lectures, workshops, and trainings delivered the subtle message that success requires adopting the behavior of her male colleagues. Orr realized that closing the gender gap in corporate America won't improve women's lives, because the goal stems from a male worldview, built on the premise of female inferiority—and that's why the numbers at the top have barely budged, despite thirty years of trying.
Based on in-depth research and eye-opening personal experiences, author and tech industry veteran Marissa Orr explains why our pursuit to close the gender gap has come at the expense of female well-being. Suspecting that many women around her felt the same, she wrote a series of lectures encouraging women to define success on their own terms. She quickly discovered that her revolutionary message resonates with women, as her workshop attendance exploded 1,500 percent over the course of a single year.
Lean Out offers contrarian, often humorous insights to this critical global dialogue and provides a pathway for both individuals and companies to promote a more inclusive workplace that benefits all employees.

Reboot: Leadership and the Art of Growing Up by Jerry Colonna, Harper Business
One of the start-up world's most in-demand executive coaches—hailed as the "CEO Whisperer" (Wired)—reveals why radical self-inquiry is critical to professional success and healthy relationships in all realms of life.
Jerry Colonna helps start-up CEOs make peace with their demons, the psychological habits and behavioral patterns that have helped them to succeed—molding them into highly accomplished individuals—yet have been detrimental to their relationships and ultimate well-being. Now, this venture capitalist turned executive coach shares his unusual yet highly effective blend of Buddhism, Jungian therapy, and entrepreneurial straight talk to help leaders overcome their own psychological traumas. Reboot is a journey of radical self-inquiry, helping you to reset your life by sorting through the emotional baggage that is holding you back professionally, and even more important, in your relationships.

The Sponsor Effect: How to Be a Better Leader by Investing in Others by Sylvia Ann Hewlett, Harvard Business Review Press
Are you investing in the right people?
Many people know the benefit of finding a sponsor--someone who goes beyond traditional mentorship to partner with a junior-level employee to help build their skills, advocate for them when opportunities arise, and open doors. But few realize that being a sponsor is just as important to career growth as finding one.
According to new research from economist and thought leader Sylvia Ann Hewlett, senior executives who sponsor rising talent are 53 percent more likely to be promoted than those who don't. Similarly, middle-level managers who have proteges are 167 percent more likely to be given stretch assignments. Well-chosen proteges contribute stellar performance, steadfast loyalty, and capabilities that you, the sponsor, may lack, thus increasing how fast and how far you can go.
But how do you find standout proteges, let alone develop them so that they're able to come through for you and your organization?
This book has the answers you need. Combining powerful new data and rich examples drawn from in-depth interviews with leaders from companies such as Unilever, Aetna, Blizzard Entertainment, and EY, The Sponsor Effect provides a seven-step playbook for how you can become a successful sponsor. You'll learn to:
Identify the right mix of proteges
Include those with differing perspectives
Inspire your proteges and ignite their ambition
Instruct them to develop key skill sets
Inspect your picks for performance and loyalty
Instigate a deal, detailing the terms of a relationship
Invest three ways and reap the rewards
Along the way, you'll discover the enormous benefits of investing in these valuable relationships.

Broken Places & Outer Spaces: Finding Creativity in the Unexpected by Nnedi Okorafor, TED Books
A powerful journey from star athlete to sudden paralysis to creative awakening, award-winning science fiction writer Nnedi Okorafor shows that what we think are our limitations have the potential to become our greatest strengths.
Nnedi Okorafor was never supposed to be paralyzed. A college track star and budding entomologist, Nnedi's lifelong battle with scoliosis was just a bump in her plan—something a simple operation would easily correct. But when Nnedi wakes from the surgery to find she can't move her legs, her entire sense of self begins to waver. Confined to a hospital bed for months, unusual things begin to happen. Psychedelic bugs crawl her hospital walls; strange dreams visit her nightly. Nnedi begins to put these experiences into writing, conjuring up strange, fantastical stories. What Nnedi discovers during her confinement would prove to be the key to her life as a successful science fiction author: In science fiction, when something breaks, something greater often emerges from the cracks.
In Broken Places & Outer Spaces, Nnedi takes the reader on a journey from her hospital bed deep into her memories, from her painful first experiences with racism as a child in Chicago to her powerful visits to her parents' hometown in Nigeria. From Frida Kahlo to Mary Shelly, she examines great artists and writers who have pushed through their limitations, using hardship to fuel their work. Through these compelling stories and her own, Nnedi reveals a universal truth: What we perceive as limitations have the potential to become our greatest strengths—far greater than when we were unbroken.
A guidebook for anyone eager to understand how their limitations might actually be used as a creative springboard, Broken Places & Outer Spaces is an inspiring look at how to open up new windows in your mind.
Feedback (and Other Dirty Words): Why We Fear It, How to Fix It by M. Tamra Chandler & Laura Dowling Grealish, Berrett-Koehler
A practical and irreverent guide to taking the sting out of feedback and reclaiming it as a motivating, empowering experience for everyone involved.
Feedback: the mere mention of the word can make our blood pressure rise and our defenses go up. For many of us, it's a dirty word that we associate with bias, politics, resentment, and self-doubt. However, if we take a step back and think about its true intent, we realize that feedback needn't be a bad thing. After all, understanding how others experience us provides valuable opportunities to learn and grow.
Authors M. Tamra Chandler and Laura Grealish explain how feedback got such a bad rap and how to recognize and minimize the negative physical and emotional responses that can erode trust and shut down communication. They offer a new and more ambitious definition of feedback, explore the roles we each play as Seeker, Extender, and Receiver, and introduce the three Fs of making feedback focused, fair, and frequent. You'll also find valuable exercises and strategies, along with real-world examples that illustrate how you can put these ideas into action and join in the movement to fix feedback, once and for all.
When it's done right, feedback has been proven to be the most effective means of improving communication and performance for you and your organization. It's too important to give up, and with Chandler and Grealish's help, you'll be able to use it deftly, equitably, and effectively.
The Technology Trap: Capital, Labor, and Power in the Age of Automation by Carl Benedikt Frey, Princeton University Press
How the history of technological revolutions can help us better understand economic and political polarization in the age of automation.
From the Industrial Revolution to the age of artificial intelligence, The Technology Trap takes a sweeping look at the history of technological progress and how it has radically shifted the distribution of economic and political power among society's members. As Carl Benedikt Frey shows, the Industrial Revolution created unprecedented wealth and prosperity over the long run, but the immediate consequences of mechanization were devastating for large swaths of the population. Middle-income jobs withered, wages stagnated, the labor share of income fell, profits surged, and economic inequality skyrocketed. These trends, Frey documents, broadly mirror those in our current age of automation, which began with the Computer Revolution.
Just as the Industrial Revolution eventually brought about extraordinary benefits for society, artificial intelligence systems have the potential to do the same. But Frey argues that this depends on how the short term is managed. In the nineteenth century, workers violently expressed their concerns over machines taking their jobs. The Luddite uprisings joined a long wave of machinery riots that swept across Europe and China. Today's despairing middle class has not resorted to physical force, but their frustration has led to rising populism and the increasing fragmentation of society. As middle-class jobs continue to come under pressure, there's no assurance that positive attitudes to technology will persist.
The Industrial Revolution was a defining moment in history, but few grasped its enormous consequences at the time. The Technology Trap demonstrates that in the midst of another technological revolution, the lessons of the past can help us to more effectively face the present.
Superpower: One Man's Quest to Transform American Energy by Russell Gold, Simon & Schuster
In the ever more urgent quest for sources of renewable energy, meet the man boldly harnessing the natural forces that could power America's future.
The United States is in the midst of an energy transition. We want to embrace renewable energy sources like wind and solar, and rely less on dirty fossil fuels. We don't want to keep pumping so many heat-trapping gases into the atmosphere. Any transition from a North American power grid that uses mostly fossil fuels to one that is predominantly clean requires a massive building spree—billions of dollars' worth.
Enter Michael Skelly, an infrastructure builder who began working on wind energy in 2000, when many considered the industry a joke. Eight years later, Skelly helped create the second largest wind power company in the United States—which was sold for $2 billion. Wind energy was no longer funny; it was well on its way to generating a substantial percentage of the electricity in the United States.
Acclaimed journalist and author of The Boom, "the best all-around book yet on fracking" (San Francisco Chronicle), Russell Gold tells the story of this pioneer whose innovations, struggles, and persistence represent the groundbreaking changes underway in American energy. In Superpower, we meet Skelly's financial backers, a family that pivoted from oil exploration to renewable energy; the farmers ready to embrace the new "cash crop"; the landowners prepared to go to court to avoid looking at overhead wires; and utility executives who concoct fiendish ways to block renewable energy. Gold also shows how Skelly's innovative company, Clean Line Energy, conceived the idea for a new power grid that would allow sunlight where abundant to light up homes thousands of miles away in cloudy states, and take wind from the Great Plains to keep air conditioners running in Atlanta. Thrilling, provocative, and important, Superpower is a fascinating look at America's future.
This Is Not a T-Shirt: A Brand, a Culture, a Community—a Life in Streetwear by Bobby Hundreds, MCD
The story of The Hundreds and the precepts that made it an iconic streetwear brand by Bobby Hundreds himself.
Streetwear exists in that rarefied space where genuine "cool" coexists with big business; where a star designer might work simultaneously with Nike, a tattoo artist, Louis Vuitton, and a skateboard company. It's the ubiquitous style of dress comprising hoodies, sneakers, and T-shirts that is worn by everyone from rappers to models to book editors. In the beginning, a few brands defined this style; fewer still survived as streetwear went mainstream. They are the OGs, the "heritage brands." The Hundreds is one of those companies, and Bobby Hundreds is at the center of it all.
Bobby Kim, a.k.a. Bobby Hundreds, is the cofounder of The Hundreds, one of the first streetwear brands to go global. The creative force behind the brand, he has emerged as one of streetwear's most prominent faces and voices. But growing up as one of the only Asian American kids in a mostly white and Latino community, a year ahead of his peers, with artistic aspirations, he reminds us that The Hundreds was started by outsiders and that that is truly the story of streetwear culture.
In This Is Not a T-Shirt, Bobby Hundreds cements his spot as a champion of an industry he helped create, celebrating the inspirations that birthed The Hundreds—from his Southern California, punk-DIY-tinged youth to the brand's explosive success. His story is both inspiring memoir and business book—an expert assessment of the history and future of streetwear and the tale of his commitment to a creative vision and to building real community.

I typically start the process doing research and gathering reference material. This part of the process really appeals to me because I love to learn everything I can about the subject I'm drawing.
Then, I usually create very rough, small thumbnail drawings (that only I can really read!) to help me figure out the composition.
Once I start the final, I start with a pencil sketch, then inking with a range of tools such as nib pens, technical pens, and brush pens. Once that is completed, I will scan the drawing in, and then clean it up and color it with Photoshop. As a final step, I will overlay scanned ink wash textures that I have made into the final illustration to give it some extra dimension. (Occasionally, I will use a photo I've taken of something more unusual, like moss or lichen, to overlay into the illustration!) My favorite step of the process is definitely inking; it's where I have the most fun.

EY has named Dr. Tina Chekan, CEO and superintendent of Propel Schools, and Jeremy Resnick, executive director of the Propel Schools Foundation, as a joint finalist for the Entrepreneur of the Year 2017 awards in the Western Pennsylvania and West Virginia region.
The Propel leaders are among three dozen local leaders being recognized for excellence in areas such as innovation, financial performance and personal commitment to their businesses and communities. A panel of independent judges, including entrepreneurs and prominent leaders from business, finance and the local community selected the finalists.
The EY awards program, now in its 31st year, has honored business leaders in over 145 cities and more than 60 countries throughout the world. The program encourages entrepreneurial activity among those with potential and recognizes the contribution of people who inspire others with their vision, leadership and achievement.

Q: Find the area of parallel surface Q: Consider a surface $M$ with regular parametrization $X:U_{open}\subset \mathbb{R}^2 \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^3$ and define the parallel surface $M_t$ by
$$Y(u,v)=X(u,v) + tN(u,v)$$
where $N(u,v)$ is the unit normal on $X$ at point $(u,v)$ and $t$ is a constant. And Show that $$\text{Area}(M_t)=\text{Area}(M)-2t \int_ M H \text{ d}A+t^2\int_M K\text{ d}A$$
where $H$ and $K$ are the mean curvature and Gaussian curvature, respectively.

First, I want to find out what $Y_u \times Y_v$ equals to so that I can apply
$$\text{Area}(M_t)=\int_{M_t}\| Y_u \times Y_v\| \text{ d}u\text{d}v$$
$Y_u=X_u+tN_u=X_u(1-tk_1)$
$Y_v=X_v+tN_v=X_v(1-tk_2)$
where $k_1$ and $k_2$ are the principal curvature of $X$
Therefore,
$$Y_u \times Y_v=(1-2tH+t^2K)X_u \times X_v$$
And,
\begin{equation}
\begin{split}
\text{Area}(M_t) & =\int_{M}\| (1-2tH+t^2K)X_u \times X_v\| \text{ d}u\text{d}v \\
 & = \int_{M} (1-2tH+t^2K)\|X_u \times X_v\| \text{ d}u\text{d}v \\
 & = \text{Area}(M) -2t \int_{M}H \| X_u \times X_v \|\text{ d}u\text{d}v + t^2\int_{M}K \|X_u \times X_v \| \text{ d}u\text{d}v
\end{split}
\end{equation}
I don't know how to simplify this to
$$ \text{Area}(M_t)  =  \text{Area}(M) -2t \int_{M}H \text{ d}A + t^2\int_{M}K \text{ d}A$$

A: In terms of any ($C^1$) parameterization $X(u, v)$ of a surface, the area element is
$$dA = \left\vert\left\vert X_u \times X_v\right\vert\right\vert \,du\,dv,$$
so you can simply substitute.
