Redecorate with wallpaper
After I installed last month's screensavers on my computer,
I decided I needed UNT desktop wallpaper to go with them. If your computer
screen is due for a makeover too, download a high-tech Mean Green Scrappy
at the link below.

Mighty math
How long does it take for two UNT mathematicians to
solve a problem that no one else has been able to solve in five decades?
Four years. The two professors used an unusual combination of math theories,
including the clincher -- mechanical engineering principles -- to be
the first to prove the Steinhaus Lattice Problem. Their approved solution
was published by two leading math publications after being critiqued
by international experts.

Love
at dawn
I hope you received your winter North Texan magazine in the mail. Mine
sits on my coffee table, so I can pick it up and thumb through my favorite
stories again. If you like the issue's cover story, "Songs of the
Shaman," check out the magazine's web site. You'll be able to hear
Bill Worrell sing one of his favorite love songs, "Amor en la Madrugada," exclusively
online.
