Mathematical Moments

Well, I am embarrassed to say that I haven't been to the American Mathematical mathmomentslogo.jpg
Society
web site for quite awhile. Although, I do use MathSciNet regularly. Anyway, I have just discovered Mathematical Moments. The Mathematical Moments program promotes appreciation and understanding of the role mathematics plays in science, nature, technology, and human culture via podcasts. In addition, a few display the national flags of various countries, by selecting the flag icon, you can hear the podcast in that language. Also, there are links to supplemental resources (web sites and pdf documents). Some examples of topics of the podcasts are: Bending It Like Bernoulli, Burying Carbon Dioxide, Finding Fake Photos, Predicting Storm Surge. There many more.

If this is news to you, please check it out.
