Welcome to the Winter Solstice and the last day of school before Christmas/Winter Break. At its zenith the sun will be a paltry 17 degrees above the horizon and we'll have a mere 8 hours and 7 minutes of sunlight hours...Woo! Do not despair, the days get longer from now on.

Today's schedule is an adapted form of D-C-B-A

D Block 9:05 - 10:10
C Block 10:15 - 11:15
Assembly 11:20 - 12:20
Lunch 12:20 - 1:00
B Block 1:05 - 2:05
A Block 2:10 - 3:15

D Block Social Studies 11 - Today is the last day to get work handed in to me. You need to have all of your Quebec - Canada questions submitted today.

C Block Crime, Media & Society 12 - Today we'll finish the Law & Order Los Angeles episode "Silver Lake" that we began yesterday. You'll also need to get me both of your Russell Williams questions that I posted on yesterday's blog entry.

B Block Geography 12 - Today we will finish Twister. Remember you need to identify meteorological errors (look at the "goofs" section on the IMDb website or the 68 Things wrong with Twister website) and you need to figure out who is most like Mr. Young. Please respond to this post with your answers to who you think is most like me and make sure you explain why. To look at some real storm chasers check out the Discovery Channel Storm Chasers web site.

A Block Law 12 - Hmmmmm...last block on the last day before Christmas Break. When you come to class we'll just see what surprises there are in store for you
