Winning Whirlwind Weekend

Lots of stuff going on this weekend.

Friday morning, I was down at Pitt for a Calculus teacher get-together. We talked about policies and guidelines for teaching our Pitt-affiliated College in High School Calculus (aka Calc 1, the first semester of college Calc, AP AB Calc). We then had two speakers. The first had a talk on proving Pascal's Triangle and the Binomial Theorem. The second was on looking at volume of a ball in the 4th dimension and beyond. That's right, 4th dimension. Made my head spin.

Then, on the road to Hershey to meet up with the XC teams. I didn't quite get a chance to meet up with them to run the course, so I met them at the hotel for the team dinner. We had a little get together and then tomorrow's race day! Good luck to MB and Jay on getting their runners to the State Championship. It's going to be a little chilly (around 40 degrees), but should be a great day!Below is a picture of Rad and the top boys from the AAA race last year.



Then, from Hershey, off to Maryland to meet up with my parents because my sister had her baby! Congrats Daph and Taruan and welcome to the world, Damian Jovani Matthews! Aunt Beth and Uncle Oscar has a ring to it!



So, time for some sleep and then the big day of racing and baby-visiting Saturday.

Did you ever take a topology and or differential geometry class in college? If not, you would have really enjoyed it I think.
