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.

                         What is the use of running when you are on the wrong road?

No worries, though—my name is Lederhosen Pug, and I know the way (知道). 

And that way has been pretty chilly the last few days. We've had a summer cold spell the last few days, and the 14C (57F) drizzle has soaked into my little pug-bones.

The first website I checked regarding Bavaria's climate (I just wanted to know that of which we boast) notes that we have four distinct seasons, and mild summer weather. This is, of course, generally true.

          For a big part of the year – between May and September – skies are 
          mostly sunny and temperatures are pleasantly warm. This is the best 
          time for outdoor activities such as hiking, water sports or cycling, for 
          visiting outdoor festivals or meeting friends in a park or beer garden. 
          Expect average daytime temperatures around 20 to 30 degrees Celsius 
          (68 – 86° F) during this period... [Weather And Climate: Study in Bavaria]

But my, oh my. This has been cold (and unusual). Almost as strange as beating Brazil 7-1...or in the World Cup Final.

Pug Chill.
