Thanks, @Culpwrit for many priceless insights and actionable tips for our students on how to build their own business acumen, which will surely serve them well as strategic communication professionals. Can’t wait for the next book in your series with @mattragas !

Great review for a masterful set of books — “The Deadball Files”! I loved the earlier books and can’t wait to read “The Federal Case”!
The Federal Case – historical fiction about the Federal League, #MLB pirating & Ban Johnson. Fast forward a century, a surprisingly clever legal thriller is what you'll discover! Our reaction? We bought the first 3 books! [amazon.com/exec/obidos/asin/…] #BaseballAlmanac ❤️⚾️

Amen to this, @CurtisSChin ! As the spouse, grandson, brother, cousin, and friend of nurses, I’m somewhat of an expert on this topic. There is no more important role - in medicine or anywhere - than nurse. #purposedriven #empathy #angelsofthelord
#Fiji 🇫🇯 If I were ever in charge, I’d pay #nurses more. Here & everywhere. Thanks, @slrabuka ✊. #nursesmatter And yes, full disclosure. My mom was a #nurse. @fordpat @kathyireland @ANANursingWorld
