<B><FONT size="4">W</FONT></B>hen you buy a car, follow a recipe, 
                    or decorate your home, you're using math principles. People 
                    have been using these same principles for thousands—even 
                    millions—of years, across countries and continents. Whether 
                    you're sailing a boat off the coast of Japan or building a 
                    house in Peru, you're using math to get things done.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.learner.org/exhibits/dailymath/"><P>How can math be so universal? First, human beings didn't 
                    invent math concepts; we discovered them. Also, the language 
                    of math is numbers, not English or German or Russian. If we 
                    are well versed in this language of numbers, it can help us 
                    make important decisions and perform everyday tasks. Math 
                    can help us to shop wisely, buy the right insurance, remodel 
                    a home within a budget, understand population growth, or even 
                    bet on the horse with the best chance of winning the race.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/83A1FF9B-16ED-4B78-8DB3-D2092E76D403/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
