Here's the First Half:
Today, Dr. Vincent Kituku of Kituku and Associates, gives a motivational business seminar called "Overcoming Buffaloes at Work and In Life". Dr. Kituku is known here locally for using his upbringing in Kenya and applying his learnings from his native culture to help people and businesses better themselves. There are two sessions, a morning one and an afternoon one.
Dr. Kituku has commissioned two former Bronco football players to speak at his uplifting event. Kellen Moore, now a quarterback on the Detroit LIons roster, is the keynote speaker and Doug Martin (a.k.a locally "The Muscle Hamster") of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is the guest speaker. But ya gotta be in Boise today to catch it!

For the Second Half:
Most people know Chris Petersen as "Coach Pete". As the current head coach of Boise State's football team, he has made a career out of winning (his 84-8 overall coaching record and 5-2 bowl record speaks for themself). He is the co-author of a new book entitled "Wise Beyond Your Field: How Creative Leaders Out Innovate to Out Perform." The other author is Nancy K. Napier "& The Gang"...Napier is a professor at the same college Coach Pete works.
From a newspaper book review, it sounds like Coach Pete and BSU is using innovative ways to help their players focus and to decrease boredom when educating and training the players. Expect to read about some principles that coach Pete drums into BSU's players in order to achieve excellence on a weekly and yearly basis!
Amazon's digital K (Kindle) version is only $2.99, less than the price of a polish dog at a chilly fall home opener...hardbacks run about $15 and can be bought at Amazon, Bronco stores or the BSU campus bookstore...
Here's a shout out to J.D. who turned 18 today! We love you and God Speed!
