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.

But since I have your attention, and am proud of my state (well, except for a place called Auburn), I wanted to tell you that I saw a little bird outside my window today.

It's the Yellowhammer, and it is the Alabama state bird.

And that's why were' sometimes called "The Yellowhammer State," even though most people have no idea what it means.

Some people...from places like Minnesota...call it the "Northern Flicker." We know it's southern...and yellow (um, sort of).


Oh, and Roll Tide.
