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 now that I have your attention anyway, I want to tell you that I love climbing hills and mountains. 
[b] Relative RF

I frequently travel to the highest point in Alabama, Cheaha Mountain, which forms a kind of minor tower over the countryside. 

It's not much for climbing, but Talladega State Park is beautiful (there's more to do here than race cars).

The view is beautiful, and seems higher than it really is (that's because everything else is relative flatland). 

It's a "mountain" only in a relative sense. It gives me a towering sense of Alabama pride, though.

Roll Tide.
