Yo Way Yo

Ok...so I spent the day watching the four movies that make up the first "series" of Lexx - I Worship His Shadow, Super Nova, Eating Pattern and Giga Shadow. It has been a while since I've watched Lexx and I could hear the call of the Brunnen G echoing in my head all weekend. Great scifi show - sort of like Farscape, but it aired a couple of years before Farscape. And an eclectic assortment of guest stars (at least for series 1) - Barry Bostwick, Tim Curry, Rutger Hauer and Malcolm McDowell (did you know he is the uncle of the guy who played Dr. Bashir on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine?). So, today was a write-off.

Hopefully you guys did better. Physical Science - noses should be ground down from being kept on the grindstone. Know the material well and work efficiently. Physics - you'll be getting an introduction to work and energy and a chance to use th CPS system. I've used it with the Physical Science kids before as a stand-alone, but this time finds it melded with out usual PowerPoint lectures. There will be slides tomorrow that you won't see in your packets because they are "question" slides. Don't let that confuse you as you follow along in the packet. Honors Physics - we'll go over the energy lab and use it to clarify ideas about work. Think about what we went over for our work discussion and see how, and if, it applies to the patterns that you observed in lab. Did velocity increase when gravity did positive work? Did it decrease when gravity did negative work? Did position change when work was done on the ball? Etc... Well, back to Lexx.

"Yo Way Yo
