I wanted to pass along a great opportunity to get a neat Kindle (or paperback) book and help save lives in Africa.
A few days ago I received an e-mail from Seth Godin about the Malaria No More project: I buy a Kindle book — with neat/cool/provocative/juicy/thought-provoking/useful/inspiring contributions from 61 authors — for $20 and $20 goes to the MNM project.

Character consists of what you do on the third and fourth tries. – James Michener As hard as it is to try something new, it’s pretty darn hard to try it a third or fourth time. Sometimes it doesn’t make sense to try, try again, and again, and again . . . . But sometimes…
