Menlo provides an appropriately paced, challenging sequence of courses for students of wide-ranging needs. What to do when Math gets hard Math Guidelines for Parents Menaechmus (380 BC-320 BC) is famed for his discovery of the conic sections and he was the first to show that ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas are obtained by cutting a cone in a plane not parallel to the base.

The ancient Greeks settled the western coast of what is now Turkey about 1000 BC where trade flourished with success connecting many cultures. It is here that the earliest great minds of mathematics and astronomy developed in the Greek world. Among these was Thales of Miletus. So many various estimated dates exist for Thales that I have no idea which to put down here. So I will give a few samples: 624-546 BC, 620-555 BC, 636-546 BC. Thales of Miletus often called "the father of mathematics" travelled and studied in

About Bates Academics Admissions Student Life ... News Releases 1999 05-05-99 THEATER AT BATES TO STAGE "THE TWIN MENAECHMI" May 5, 1999 Release No. 448 Contact: Marc Glass Phone: (207) 786-6330 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Theater at Bates to stage "The Twin Menaechmi" LEWISTON, Maine Theater at Bates will stage four performances of Platus' timeless comedy "The Twin Menaechmi" at Bates College Thursday, Friday and Saturday, May 13, 14 and 15 at 8 p.m., and Sunday, May 16 at 2 p.m. in Gannett Theater. Tickets are free, and reservations will not be accepted. "The Twin Menaechmi," a paradigm for Shakespeare's "Comedy of Errors" and Sondheim's Broadway musical "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum," is a modern twist on the Greek comedy about the mix-up of two identical twins. Separated from each other at the age of seven, one twin has spent his life seeking his lost brother who has lived a lavish life on the Island of Epidamnus. The play opens the morning the traveling twin arrives on Epidamnus in hopes of finding his brother, and they don't meet until the final act, when all the day's mix-ups are resolved. "The similarities between Platus' island of Epidamnus and Las Vegas of the 1970s are uncanny," said director Joan Reddick, a Bates senior from Piedmont, Calif. "The jokes in the play remain untouched. All we have added are a few polyester bell-bottoms; some loud, clashing colors; a couple funky beats; and a disco ball. Other than that you will see a production that filled a Roman theater with boisterous, full-belly laughter nearly 2,000 years ago."

Any Way You Slice It A WebQuest for 11th Grade (Algebra 2) Designed by Deborah Alexander alexanderd@anderson3.k12.sc.us Introduction Task Process ... Teacher Page Introduction In 300 B.C. Menaechmus and Euclid studied conic sections just for the beauty of the mathematics. In 200 B.C. Apollonius first used the terms parabola, ellipse and hyperbola. For many years the usefulness of these slices of the cone was unknown. Now, here you are in the year 2004 A.D. studying these same quadratic equations. How do conic sections help us describe and predict natural phenomena? How are we able to apply the properties of these ancient curves in this technological age? return to top The Task Your task is to model and explain each conic section as the intersection of a plane and cone. You will gather examples of each of the four conic sections and explain how the reflective properties are used in today's society to improve our lives. You will solve problems involving the conic sections and make a PowerPoint presentation that you could take back in time and show to Menaechmus , Euclid and Appollonius on your battery-powered laptop.

Potes esurire mecum "Come Starve with Me" [Martial] When we imagine ancient Roman cooking and eating habits, we picture too readily the pagan gorging orgies of imperial times, with their casts of thousands, or of the poisoning of Claudius with his favorite food [which his successor Nero later openly called deorum cibum , Suetonius, Nero The principal meal of the Roman day, the cena was taken about 3:00 in the afternoon, though it sometimes lasted until the small hours of the morning: we are told by Suetonius [ Nero 27] that Nero dined a medio die ad mediam noctem . When we arrive at our host's home we will remove our shoes and have our feet washed. When we have been escorted into the dining hall, we will not sit of course: a recumbent position was considered the only proper posture for a free Roman gentleman at table. Cato of Utica, that austere [if not quite uncompromising] old Republican, made a vow which he kept until the day of his suicide, to eat in a chair for as long as Julius Caesar remained in power. [Plutarch, Cato Minor Once we have assumed our positions at table, what we will be served and how we will be entertained will, of course, depend upon the cultural priorities and financial resources of our host. Descriptions of meals in the ancient world abound: from the formulaic feasts of Homer to the

Southeastern NEWS Southeastern Louisiana University Public Information Office SLU 880, Hammond, LA 70402 504/549-2341/fax 504-549-2061 Date: 3/24/97 Contact: Carol Dotson 126 Editors: Please note local interest "THE TWIN MENAECHMI" CAST ANNOUNCED AT SLU HAMMOND The Southeastern Louisiana University Theatre department has announced the cast for the Roman comedy "The Twin Menaechmi" April 29- May 3 at the Vonnie Borden Theatre. "The play is a Roman farce by Plautus, designed solely for entertainment, constructed of lighthearted incident and exaggerated characterization, yet incorporating details of everyday life" said director and SLU communications professor, Cheryl Frederic. The play, written circa 184 B.C., is an example of the rollicking farce which is a peculiarly Roman contribution to the development of drama. "The Twin Menaechmi" is a tale of twin brothers, both named Menaechmus, who are separated at a very young age. Years later, as adults, one Menaechmus visits the other's hometown. Mistaken identity confusion ensues as the hometown twin juggles his wife and mistress and unknown double. The twins are played by Joz'f Cypriane of Folsom and Rob Stratton of Baton Rouge, with Kandiest Martin of Mt. Hermon as the wife and Erica Dunn of Baton Rouge as the mistress. Rounding out the cast are: Scott Miley of Norwood, La.; Indelethio, Auriell Frederick and Neil Barberro all of Hammond; John Deshotel of Pride, La.; Erica Dunn of Baton Rouge; Dawn Rivera of Pearl River; Lataralyn Weary of Loranger; and Robert Porter, Gary Mendoza and Shannon Sharpe all of Slidell. Tickets are $5 general admission, $3 non-SLU students and senior citizens, and free for SLU students with ID. For additional information, call the SLU communication and theatre department at 549- 2105. -SLU-
