This section of the festival will be open to all badgeholders. Austin, Texas will become a traffic nightmare, as well as a huge opportunity for emerging workers to connect with industry professionals within multidimensional companies. For those that have attended SxSW in the past, the badges might make sense. Readers that have never been to South by Southwest may need a quick breakdown. SxSW

[av_heading heading='The Top Tier with Chris Rock' tag='h2' style='blockquote modern-quote modern-centered' size='' subheading_active='' subheading_size='15' padding='10' color='' custom_font=''][/av_heading] The New York Times conducted an interview with Chris Rock this past November. Catherine Spangler, José Ignacio Corbella, and Eugene Yi put together this brilliant piece with Rock. Watch the interview and check out the trailer for Top Five below. This piece by the New York Times is Chris Rock in raw form. I deeply appreciate that the media outlet had the backbone to leave in Rock's verbal jab at the death of print to one of the largest printing publications of all time during

Tony Robbins, MONEY Master the Game – Book Review

By |January 10th, 2015|Categories: National News, Non-Fiction, Pop Culture, Reviews, World News|Tags: , , |

A Guide to Understanding the Apple Tree In order to properly kick off our first book review, we needed to find a piece of literature that lives up to the hype. MONEY Master the Game by Tony Robbins is a book that I recommend to everyone of all ages. It will sink in more for those over 24, but I would still give it a read for more progressive, younger minds. The book itself was recommended to me by a good friend. Over the holiday season, I was able to catch up with old friends. I asked one of my buddies, that

The album was released via Prospect Park, and Azealia is now promoting the album. Her northeast attitude lights up any room, and her performances are relative to her above par work in the studio.
