Reconstructing Math & Science for Success
By Irene Aldridge Figure 1. A question for you: if you have 9 dots lined up in a 3×3 grid (Figure 1), how do you connect them all with just four segments without lifting your pen?

By Irene Aldridge Twenty years ago, television told women to buy extraordinary quantities of shoes. There was the holy grail of happiness, according to the absolute hit “Sex in the City”. For today’s generation of women “Sex and the City” is out, and a new trend is in, marching in protest. The marching is against the dominant male stereotype, but also explicitly asking for the government (another patriarchal authority?) to provide certain services, higher wages, better working conditions, and the like.
