We are number 1 - oops, we are number 127!

According to a list of the top 200 jobs, Mathematicians have the best job. Teachers, unfortunately, hit the list at 127 - right between Vending Machine Repairer and Buyer.

See the related story, sent on to me by Dr. Doug Franks - maybe he was trying to cheer Dr. Dan Jarvis up on his birthday!

Presentation Zen

This was one of my favorite links, long before I even knew it was a blog entry. It contrasts Steve Jobs' presentation style to Bill Gates'. Think about how artful Lessig's presentation from my previous blog entry is.

Today, I found on Vicki Davis' del.icio.us feed the link to a recent interview with Garr Reynolds, the author, about good presentations.

Lots of food for thought here.
