We recently got a new water heater and I was excited to get a heat pump model. Remarkable that they use <20% of the energy needed by the equivalent. Weβve left it on heat pump only mode rather than hybrid and have never once noticed a difference. Only two people on the house, but still!

Someone said protests donβt belong in church and it took every ounce of self-censure within me not to say βDeborah you are literally a Protestant.β

Calling all history teachers. Consider registering for Fords Theater's "Set in Stone" professional development program this summer. I've been a part of this program as lead historian for the past decade. We focus on Civil War memory and Reconstruction. And it's free.

Steph Curry on watching the protests from his hotel window: "In negative 10-degree weather. It was beautiful to see that turnout. That speaks to how important people felt to have their voice heard. In those elements and whatever streets outside our hotel, they were out, and it was amazing to watch."
