A Blog Around The Clock 
My daughter’s homework for math class today was to bring in a pie. They had quite a party. Don’t know how the teacher got that one past the administration since, in the interest of nutrition, sweets are not supposed to be distributed at holiday parties (or on any occasion, actually).
That is not Pi. How do I know this? Because Pi are square.
To integrate concepts of constants, like pi, into the minds of the elemtary school students of present day America is surely worth this one time nutritional sacrifice.
