Media 4 Math has a nice regular feature called
Math in the News. Math in the News offers ideas for short mathematics lessons based on current news stories. The current lesson that grabbed my attention is

Applications for EducationMedia 4 Math's Math in the News lessons could be one way to try to reach students with the idea that math is integrated into much more than might imagine. The NBA lesson could be particularly useful with young people who enjoy sports, but might not enjoy mathematics.
H/T to Jim Lerman.
