PM: 9.25 eliptical miles and a sensible strength training session.

I've been attending a professional development the last two days called the "elevated teaching summit". Based on the sessions I attended, elevated teaching consists of outsourceing most of what we do to Artificial Intelligence. Screw that. I'll keep grading my own essays, keep making my students read real books, keep making them write on real paper, and keep relying on feedback from real humans.

Nothing artificial about what's going on in my classroom and I'm going to die on this hill.

It's supposed to get up to 103 degrees today. Historically, Salt Lake has averaged 8 days over 100 per year but since the year 2000 the average has been 20.4 per year.

Nothing today. Ann had her surgery yesterday and it took a while. Didn't want to get too far away from her after that. Everything went as well as could be expected though.

Noonish: 30 miles on the bike. Our delightful cool spell continues!

I'm just finishing up Adam Higgenbotham's book on the space shuttle Challenger disaster. I'm tempted to say mass murder instead of disaster because it comes close to that. It's an excellent book if your outrage tank needs filling.
