Todays Random Subject: Al Roker

For some reason last night while trying to fall asleep, WifeGeeding and I were talking about Al Roker.

She stated that he is married to Deborah Roberts of ABC News.  I told her that just couldn’t be the case, and in doing some research – she’s right.

It may just be me, but her hands look pretty darn large.

Other things I didn’t know about Al Roker until last night:

  • He initially wanted to be a cartoonist before he got into television.  This may explain the look of his website.  www.Roker.com
  • He’s a cousin of Roxie Roker (Helen Willis of the TV show The Jeffersons) and her son, Lenny Kravitz. 
  • He holds the record for most guest appearances on Late Night with Conan O’Brien.
  • Roker is the basis of animated character Ollie Williams of The Family Guy.

Students will examine the nature of God as they progress in their understanding of mathematics. Students will understand the absolute consistency of mathematical principles and know that God was the inventor of that consistency. Mathematical study will result in a greater appreciation of God and His works in creation. Students will extend their mathematical knowledge beyond Algebra 1 by continuing to develop an understanding and usage of advanced algebraic concepts including functions, polynomials, rational expressions, complex numbers, systems of equations and inequalities, and matrices. Students will develop calculator skills.
