The soul of mathematics is the practice of skeptical inquiry: asking how and why things work, experimenting, exploring, and discovering. Estimation, analysis, computation, conjecture, and proof are the mathematical path to uncovering truth and we can use them in nearly every human pursuit. In this thoroughly charming and beguiling book, Shai Simonson applies mathematical tools in a variety of contexts that arise in everyday life to prove his claim that math is, literally, everywhere. Simonson applies his mathematical cast of mind to hiking, birthday parties, carnival games, lock picking, and kite flying. We see unexpected depths and connections when we look in the wrong places in the right way. No advanced mathematical knowledge is required to travel with Simonson and share in his investigations. All a reader needs is an open and curious mind, an eagerness to ask questions, and a willingness to think deeply and carefully about seemingly mundane things. There is wonder and joy in quotidian life with Simonson as your guide.

About the Book Looking for Picasso in All the Wrong Places by retired art dealer, Ivan “Googie” Parks Jr., is a memoir of how a Chicago cowboy became an art dealer! He shares his unique experiences of how his Chicagoland Cowboy upbringing prepared him to solve modern art’s oldest secret! For the first time ever, read the amazing story of a young horseman’s inadvertent discovery that paralleled the answers to Picasso’s unasked questions for the sources of the Master’s unknown mysterious models! Parks reveals Picasso’s own Communistic origins he claims to have discovered being used to compare to the murder scenes from Chicago connected events! He presents a collection of fifty-three photographs from his Cowboy life which he claims accidently helped him explain what the seemingly secret subjects Picasso selected for the unknown gifts for the 1968 “347 Suite Gravures” exhibit were developed from accrual events taken place as Picasso drew the subjects from newspaper accounts as they happened. A young Parks uses his early Chicago cowboy experiences to help illuminate the Equine characters populating the selected sequenced forty-eight serials constructed from Picasso’s artwork into Ivan’s arranged expose! He uses his uniquely devised new linking process for creating a devastating revelation in a new serialization technique which is formulated while finding out Picasso has borrowed serial events from Chicago’s historical past. His findings lead to the beginning of a better understanding of Picasso’s formerly mysterious Cubistic World as he struck a lucky deal to save his Rock n Roll Dude Ranch while selling art in the Merrill Chase Chicagoland Art Gallery chain! Ivan reveals the explicit reasons of how he helped remove the “Erotic Suite” from the “347 Series Gravures” Exhibit while discovering a surprise Chicago connection illustrating two Democratic Presidential Conventions of 1960 and 1968 silently selected by Picasso! You will marvel as he discusses the reasons explaining the heretofore unknown why Picasso gave the “Sculpture Puzzle”, the “Bizarre Etching Exhibit”, and the $100,000 “Commission Check” to the Art Institute of Chicago! Parks also divulges a curious set of parallel dimensions between the “Daley Plaza Sculpture”, the “Guernica Mural”, and a mock-up of a “St. Valentine’s Day Crime Scene Measurement Recreation” which has never been examined or explored publicly before! He also explores the timely similarities in the recreations from the April 4, 1968, murder scene used by Picasso for his own version of the day before and the day of the Memphis Motel “Balcony Crime Scene” about the murder of Dr. Martin L. King Jr. You will marvel at the intricate collection of evidence linking Picasso imagery to Capone Era Chicago Beer Wars events. He further connects other similar historical sneak attack and matching alibi models for the St. Valentine’s murders and aligns them with selected communist conflicts with fascist leaders matching Picasso Eras which Ivan implicates Picasso in stealing Chicago Connections for his seemingly unknown art subjects! You’ll decide if the evidence in Parks’s Crazy Chicago Cowboy Discovery Trail proves his findings or if Parks twisted Picasso’s imagery into his own new Secret Chicago Connections. Either way the events took place just before Picasso drew his seemingly unconnected version of the infamous imagery!

Facing the Consequences presents a perspective on US mathematics and science education that is developed from data gathered as part of the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS). TIMSS is the most extensive and far-reaching cross-national comparative study of mathematics and science education ever attempted. It includes comparing official curricula, textbooks, teacher practices, and student achievements for many countries (from 20 to 50 countries, depending on the particular comparison). Thousands of official documents and textbooks were analyzed. Thousands of teachers, principals, and other experts responded to survey questionnaires. A sample of mathematics teachers in three countries had their lessons videotaped. Hundreds of thousands of children in almost 50 countries were tested in mathematics and science. This report presents a closer look at US mathematics and science education through careful examination of TIMSS data. The authors believe this investigation shows how deceptive many often unquestioned assumptions about American education can be. Drawing upon many new analyses not previously reported and integrating these with previous analyses of TIMSS data, the authors develop and illustrate the argument that what happens to American students is the consequence of American beliefs that shape educational practice and the accretion of a myriad educational choices made in mathematics and science education.

This book takes the view that Christian truth is the basis for all answers to social issues and that there are not two opposing but equal answers within Christian truth that are equally valid and equally acceptable to God. Any so called truth or "right" that circumvents or undercuts the required sacrifices, disciplines and self denial demanded by God in any given social or moral issue ceases to be truth, ceases to be right the moment it becomes a force unto itself, outside of or independent of the Scripturally required obedience. Human history has shown over the millennia that when the letter and spirit of God's laws are not obeyed, the truth is abused, nations become confused and people are used. Many of our political and social issues are rooted in our misplaced belief that tolerance, inclusion, equal respect for unequal truth and live and let live is the way to greater peace and prosperity. They are all wrong. Each individual, government and nation is judged by their response to Christ. The Christian nation or one which ascribes to being one, is tasked to set the Christian standard as every nation's point of reference. It is the Christian's duty to show that the valid rule of God's law, the letter of God's law and the spirit of God's law are superior to any other alternative standard. The biggest obstacle to Christianity today is the undisciplined, misinformed and unfaithful lifestyles of professing Christians. The Church has become so indoctrinated in its aversion to any form of discrimination that it has placed a higher priority on keeping the peace by compromising than by keeping the truth by discriminating. By accepting a false peace and rejecting a hard truth that resists compromise, it begets neither peace nor truth.

Technoculture is culture--such is the proposition posited in Technoscience and Cyberculture, arguing that technology's permeation of the cultural landscape has so irrevocably reconstituted this terrain that technology emerges as the dominant discourse in politics, medicine and everyday life. The problems addressed in Technoscience and Cyberculture concern the ways in which technology and science relate to one another and organize, orient and effect the landscape and inhabitants of contemporary culture.
