From Round to Square (and back)

For The Emperor's Teacher, scroll down (↓) to "Topics." It's the management book that will rock the world (and break the vase, as you will see). Click or paste the following link for a recent profile of the project: http://magazine.beloit.edu/?story_id=240813&issue_id=240610

A new post appears every day at 12:05* (CDT). There's more, though. Take a look at the right-hand side of the page for over four years of material (2,000 posts and growing) from Seinfeld and country music to every single day of the Chinese lunar calendar...translated. Look here ↓ and explore a little. It will take you all the way down the page...from round to square (and back again).
*Occasionally I will leave a long post up for thirty-six hours, and post a shorter entry at noon the next day.

[a] William Edgar Geil (DHS)
My new (weekly) column on the UK website "New Religion—Religion, Politics, Analysis" is up. The site had a little break since early May, but it is back up-and-running, and I will be posting regularly. This week, I continue with my examination of William Edgar Geil (1865-1925). He seeks to understand Chinese religiosity...but he can't quite help rendering an opinion...or three...on the way. We can learn much from this.
