Kiddo didn't even pick up on the fact that mitochondria is plural?

A report from an American symphony:
The medium-height tuba player has a Toyota Highlander hybrid and they tell me they can fit in 6 tubas, but IDK how many passengers at the same time. He recommends looking at a Prius 5 for taller folks.
Bass players include some cars and a Lexus RX 350.
The two harpists have minivans, one a Sienna and the other a Pacifica.
I cannot advise personally, as my people are tall but we leave the drum kit at home and never need room for more than 3 people + camping gear for a weekend. The tuba guy (who also teaches band, so pretty familiar with lots of instruments) suggests you visit CarGuru.com and Doug Demuro (tall auto reviewer) on YouTube.

I keep seeing articles it's not just ADHD, it's so many other medications including cancer drugs which just frightens me for cancer patients. Just what is the root of the problem?
I think the root of the problem is money: manufacturers will not increase production beyond what they're absolutely sure they can sell (and adding capacity costs money). Then if anything goes unexpectedly--shipping issues, a small uptick in diagnoses, etc.--there's a shortage. Profits are the first consideration, not ensuring that patients have medicine; pharmaceutical companies are not going to work any harder to prevent selling out of a product than sneaker companies or other corporations.

Another fan of Sutabs here. Nothing yucky to drink.
Following the directions (low-residue foods then clear liquid diet) worked perfectly for me. Not only was I not trying to fast, I added unflavored gelatin to my vegetable broth to increase calories and reduce hunger.
I was fine afterwards.

My grandmother was from Texas, but her parents were from northern states and moved there. My ancestors AFAIK were mostly UK-origin New Englanders, Mayflower and otherwise, and one Native American (Blackfoot). One from each side served in the same Vermont regiment in the Civil War. It's unlikely though not impossible that somebody along the line kept someone enslaved.
However, many of them would have benefited from slavery indirectly, such as by being able to buy cheap sugar, and cotton for their clothing and linens. Folks along the coast benefited from the shipbuilding boom whether they participated or not.

The store brand items say Wegmans. Example:

Pros: The store brand is great. I can tell at a glance if something is appropriate to buy. They have a *lot* gluten-free and vegan items. This is where probably 90% of my grocery money goes despite the less-than-ideal location.
Cons: At mine, the produce section is designed horribly both for finding and comparing items and for flow of shoppers, wasting my time and probably money. There's a loyalty program, but I don't really see any savings from it. Prices for curbside are higher than in-store, which is understandable, but not equally higher among items, and the GF bread products in particular can be marked up by two dollars an item. They stock a ton of SKUs, but especially in produce, that means items get depleted--they're out of something on my list almost every time.
With the length of those two lists, it sounds like I don't like them. But in fact, I've spent nearly $16k there in the past three years, giving me plenty of opportunities to see the flaws.

Flip side: Two siblings close in age sometimes do not get along well in childhood or feel connected in adulthood.
I would take lots of things into account sooner than trying to ensure a youngest had a playmate.

How many people is she feeding?
Do you know if she has an Instant Pot, Crockpot, etc.? There may be things she could dump in there in the morning and keep hot until dinner.

My local McDonalds charges about $11 for a chicken sandwich, fries, and a drink.
I'd rather spend about the same and get from the nearest grocery store one microwavable Amy's Kitchen frozen vegetable lasagna ($7.29 each) per person and a package of Perdue diced chicken breast ($6.99 for 1.25 lbs.) that I could cook for the group while the lasagna is heating. Or especially in warmer weather, the chicken plus a bagged salad ($3 to $4 depending on type) plus brown Minute Rice ($2.89 for the 8-serving box).

I might need an intervention. Who else buys all the highschool math texts before their oldest has finished 7th grade? Me!
Your Honor, I'd like to enter into evidence these screenshots showing high school math texts for sale on multiple websites as of today. Since they are still available, my client clearly did not "buy all the high school math texts." We agree that no reasonable person would do that, if only for lack of warehouse space. She may have prudently obtained in advance a few items for household use for a child who is already in secondary school, but did so in a lawful manner and with appropriate restraint.

Has anyone used Derek Owens? For Pre-Algebra it says the text is optional, but we need the workbook and I can't find it. Is it something I buy, or a download that comes with tuition?
He gets them printed by Lulu. https://www.lulu.com/shop/derek-owens/prealgebra-semester-1-student-workbook/paperback/product-1e7zdmk4.html?q=derek+owens&page=1&pageSize=4
That said, I think you can also download while enrolled. The cost of printing it at home is likely to be higher.

We got an upright freezer! Now I have to make and freeze all the things.
This is going to be standardized testing week at our house, and then the following week is spring break with DH's parents. (They will come to visit us.) I should see if they want to go to the beach on the Thursday when they're here, weather permitting.

I think you were going to come pick up my special recycling and bring it to the multi-material facility for me.
Thanks.
