Happy Pi Day!

Happy Pi Day, everyone! Today is March 14, which corresponds to the first three digits of pi: 3.14! The most revered time on Pi Day is 1:59, because pi approximately equals 3.14159! In honor of Pi Day, here are some interesting pi links:

Also, a brief Entwistle update: Neil's next court appearance, which was scheduled for tomorrow, has now been pushed back to April 18 because prosecutor Michael Fabbri needs more time to present his case before the grand jury. Entwistle will probably be indicted then at Framingham District Court, and later he will be arraigned for a second time, this time at Middlesex Superior Court. He will be able to enter a new plea and request bail if he wishes. The Middlesex Court, which is in the same building as the prison where Neil resides, is where his trial will take place.

For a plethora of Entwistle stories, go to the
Boston Herald.

One of the most fascinating stories is this
article about the Middlesex Jail.
