"Which way should I go?" That question, or some variation of it, is one all of us ask, almost every day. We live in uncertain times, and it seems like a new turn is always right around the corner. But which road to take? Which turn to make? Those are questions that have bedeviled poets and philosophers from time immemorial. Life is a twisting, turning road, and whether you're trying to decide which way to go for yourself, your family, your business, or your community, there is always some element of ambiguity regarding the best direction in which to head. When Robert Frost saw that two roads diverged in a yellow wood, he was sorry he couldn't travel both. None of us can.TURNS: Where Business Is Won and Lost takes a deep dive into the physical, historical, and metaphorical nature of turns through the lenses of science, history, politics, sports, and more. While no book can point the way regarding specific crossroads to which you may come, this one can help you make better decisions based on eight insightful principles that all turns have in common. Nothing can move in a straight line forever, so turns, by nature, are about limits. But they're also about overcoming limits. Finding new roads. Discovering new directions. One way to think about life itself is that it's fundamentally about knowing when, where and how to turn-turning questions into answers, problems into solutions, and people, circumstances, and situations around-without careening into a ditch. TURNS will help you better know which way to go when you come to those forks in the road.

A Moth Fell In Love With The Moon is a poetry collection that can best be described as the child of balance, of blending the new and old (styles of poetry, that is), the beautiful and the tragic, and the chaos and the order-all of living on this rock floating in the ether.It is a beautiful, delicate thing that can be balled up into tapioca and drunk like boba on a hot Thursday afternoon in a season that encompasses all of them.

In the 2020s, the rights and responsibilities of American citizens have been contested as never before. Amid fraught elections, Black Lives Matter protests, and a global pandemic, our nation has become roiled in debate over what America is and who has access to the rights its people proclaim. Evolving interpretations of the Constitution both reflect and escalate tensions in a rapidly changing world, affecting everything from the fabric of American society to our survival as individuals and even as a species.  Shall Make, Shall Be is a curatorial project in which ten artists and eleven legal scholars explore the meaning and impact of the Bill of Rights. Developed with production support from the Frank-Ratchye STUDIO for Creative Inquiry at Carnegie Mellon University, Shall Make, Shall Be shares ten artworks and essays that provide a space to consider identity and life inside the American experiment and their foundations in these ten amendments. Throughout this catalog for the exhibition, readers can explore the games and interactive artwork with up close images and illuminating text from the artists and scholars involved.   Shall Make, Shall Be demonstrates how our laws and cultural norms don’t always lead to the outcomes we hope for. The thought-provoking works and essays within help us see new paths forward to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.  Artists: arts.codes (Melissa F. Clarke and Margaret Schedel), Peter Bradley, Danielle Isadora Butler, Arnab Chakravarty, Moaw!, and Ian McNeely, Cherisse Santa Cruz Datu and Latoya Peterson, Ryan Kuo, Andy Malone, Shawn Pierre, Vi Trinh, Lexa Walsh  Scholars: Deborah Archer, Monica C.

Two words have the power to change a person's outlook: good . . . considering. Jothy Rosenberg has heard this nearly his whole life, starting at age sixteen when bone cancer led to an above-knee amputation of his right leg. Three years later, when cancer forced the removal of a lung and acted like a death sentence, this epithet continued. Rosenberg grew tired of only being "good considering" his disability. In the decades since he beat cancer, he has used athletics to overcome this social stigma. He turned his disability into a superability, often performing in challenging open water swims, cancer-fundraising bike rides, and treacherous skiing adventures better than "two-leggers." And in the business world, when working in a reliable position failed to quench his need for risk-taking, he plunged into entrepreneurship, launching several high-tech startup companies. In Who Says I Can't, Rosenberg teaches by example how everyone can overcome life's obstacles to achieve and overachieve. Through his stories, he shows that when the world says you can't, courage and determination prove you can be more than "good considering." You can be better than the rest. Not only that, you can use a positive attitude to inspire and stomp out stereotypes one leg at a time.ENDORSEMENTS"The PMC coined the term Living Proof some 15 years ago. Nobody epitomizes that phrase, or our mission, better than Jothy Rosenberg. The challenges he has faced in his life have been hurdles, not walls, to leading a fulfilling life. In a world overflowing with hype and artifice, Jothy's journey and triumph is real and inspirational. He is a true role model."-- Billy Starr, Founder/Executive Director, Pan-Mass ChallengeJothy Rosenberg is not a celebrity but an Everyman, which gives his wrenching story of astonishing grit its inspirational power. After being told when he was 19 that he had no chance of surviving the cancer that had already cost him one leg and one lung, Jothy made a decision. He would ski until he died. Instead, he became one of the first beneficiaries of then-primitive chemotherapy, a champion one-legged, one-lunged skier, swimmer, and cyclist, and an early model of how to triumph over cancer and disability. For anyone trying to turn a cancer diagnosis, major disability, or even a major life challenge into a character-building experience, this well-written book is indispensable.-- Jonathan Alter, author, MSNBC commentator, cancer survivor
