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] Beaujolais (nouveau and otherwise) RF
It's the second installment of the New York Times "Wine School," and we move to much lighter fare this time (cheaper, too). We stay in France, though. 
[b] Light RF

We will explore the world of Beaujolais this month, and there is much less to concern us (decanting deshmanting). Just get the bottle open and enjoy (I assume that my readers are of legal drinking age if they partake). 

Here's Eric Asimov's article. We'll look more in-depth next week. Pat and I will probably sample a few bottles (over the weekend, too).


See you next week. 

Enjoy some light, fruity, Beaujolais in the meantime.

Oh, and we'll address that whole "Beaujolais Nouveau" thing then. It's unlikely that you are going to find any of that stuff right now (trust me).
