Today we looked at the severe winter storms in California. Driveways are blocked and cars are buried under piles of snow in a state known for its beaches and sunny skies. Recently, snow fell in the Hollywood Hills, right near the iconic sign and that never happens! A bipartisan bill unveiled this week could mean an end to the Tik Tok app as we know it as there is concern that it could be a national security risk. Cameron also quickly researched the origins of pickle ball that has become a very popular sport.

9-1 Solving Quadratic Equations Using Graphs and Tables – We reviewed how to use a graph to identify the x-intercepts as solutions of a quadratic equation. If the graph of the function has no x-intercepts then the equation has no real solutions. If the graph touches the x-axis but does not cross it then there is only one x-intercept and one real solution. Next we practiced finding the vertex of the parabola by putting the equation in the form ax2 + bx + c and calculating the x-coordinate by the formula –b/2a and
we found the y-coordinate by using the formula –b/2a. Next we plugged the x-coordinate of the vertex into the original quadratic equation to find the y-coordinate of the vertex.
Assignment: Complete the assigned problems for homework.

In today's class, we continued our discussion on genetics, including talking about protein synthesis, transcription, and translation. We went over the processes for all and talked about their significance in biology. Cameron took notes that followed along with the material.

During and after WWII, Allies searched for and arrested Nazi war criminals ranging from Hitler's minister's, military leaders, concentration and death camp officers/employees, doctors, judges and more people who committed crimes against humanity. The Nuremberg Trials (that lasted for four years,) were presided over by an international tribunal of judges. Cameron learned that there were many different verdicts and punishments rendered for the individuals (male and female) who were accused of and convicted of crimes at the Nuremberg Trials. Similar trials happened for those who committed crimes against humanity in the Pacific Theater of WWII, as well.
