Jim Noble reflects on the joy he finds in teaching mathematics Warning - first world problem and questionable analogy approaching. Writing my book, Mathematics Lessons to Look Forward To! was a therapeutic exercise because its central premise is about the things my work involves that get me out of bed in the morning, with a spring in my step, and help me focus on that joy a little more. The smaller square prompts a good discussion about lengths that ends up with deducing that the length of the square is the square root of 2. [...]this time out, it occurred to me that using the two dissections above would lead to different means of deducing the square length and that this, in turn, would make a nice demonstration of how the square root of 8 is twice the square root of 2.

I've worked on wine before. It's not easy. Therefore, I'll forgive them for casting the beautiful 40-year-olds from the time-share condo brochure. I'll forgive them for the rainbow. I'll forgive them for having a unicorn in the commercial. I'll even forgive them for having mermaids in the radio. (Boy, I'm being generous.) But to have a virtually silent spot and end with arguably the most overused line in advertising history, \"One of life's simple pleasures\"?

Colour Photo: Sudbury Star File Photo / Angelo Arena of Sudbury waits for a bed on a gurney in the hallway of the emergency department of St. Joseph's Health Care Centre last Thursday. He was admitted the day before. Overcrowding in hospitals will get worse as the population ages, a letter writer says. Dr. Chris Bourdon is reported as saying \"he has never seen anything like it\" with respect to patients piled up in the emergency ward awaiting a hospital bed in the 10 years he has worked in Sudbury Regional Hospital's emergency department. I have news for him and for all Canadians -- you ain't seen nothing yet.

Which brings me to the new Federal Express campaign by BBDO, New York. Arguably the best agency since DDB in the '60s to breathe fresh life into solid, staid products such as Pepsi, Snickers and M&M's. Or the dreaded \"We need more pixie dust!\" speech. No, BBDO and Federal Express did what every championship team has ever done to take the title back. Go back to the basics. Relax. It's Federal Express. Is the tagline. And you know that in this world (not the seemingly slumbering '80s) that truly moves at the speed of light, I like my security. And I like Federal Express again. Like an old friend. Sometimes I'll drink Pepsi just because it's \"cool.\" Year after year, Pepsi stands neck and neck with Coke and an inferior product. Why? Because Pepsi is smart enough to know man does not live on carbonated sugar water alone.
