You might find some interesting topics in the "In Our Time" catalog. Here is a listing of their Prehistory programs. The host, Melvyn Bragg picks a topic and a few experts to dig into it deeply for about an hour.

Maybe even good for most, considering the cell phones in schools thread. Also some people here have mentioned not wanting to practice in public. But yeah, nothing works for everybody. My friend enrolled her ds mid-semester and didn't find out for 3 weeks that he didn't know how to open his locker. She went in after school with him one day so he could practice. At the same time she discovered he hadn't been issued textbooks and had instead been googling every question. Kids can be cuckoo.

When we toured our local school they talked about the lockers and as for the combination locks they said, just as you should expect these days, "there's an app for that" Dd says she uses her locker 3 or 4 times a day. Her backpack always seems to weigh a ton, so I would love to dive in and optimize her process! but obviously I don't. I'm saving patience points with her for when I have to teach her to drive.

Plus, there is still some yellow...

You sound very busy, but I would love to see your altered book. I've long been intrigued by those, but never found "just the right thing" for me.

Sure, but do you feel that you should be available 24/7 for any administrative task sent your way, or instead some reasonable subset of the week that makes sense for your class schedule and your life? No need to answer, just sharing the gist of the Tick household's discussion. A household which includes an engineering professor who does not feel the need to be responding to administrative email between midnight and 7am on a random Sunday, but then misses a first come first serve department funding opportunity. So there is clearly a department cultural expectation. What drives that? Can it be changed? OP, no one here would balk at responding to your type of enquiry, helping and working with students is the point of the many pointed job.

My Kitchen Aid is 30 years old (😲). I use it to make all our whole wheat (blend) pizza dough, and occasionally bread. I keep it in a cabinet and enjoy the test of strength to see if I can still casually lift it to the counter when I want to use it.

Tiny Homes - Do you know of anyone who lives in one?
Miss Tick replied to Hannah's topic in The Chat Board
I've rented a few on travel for short stays. It was enjoyable but I could see that it would difficult long term, especially with another person. Room for hobbies and exercise were my first concerns. -
Pedestrians in blind spot on front car windshield
Miss Tick replied to Indigo Blue's topic in The Chat Board
I wonder if, ironically, increased passenger safety has meant increased blind spots and decreased pedestrian safety. These older cars with spindly roof supports would have great sightlines, but be bad in a roll over. I think you would be fine, IB, you don't strike me as someone likely to be involved in a roll over.
