    That's exactly right. Addicts they are too. My kid would look at his phone all day long if we let him. We set limits and I tell him to put it away only once.

    Hopefully, after the “non-invasive” surgery,

    Good luck tomorrow Neal! My dad had that "euro-lift" procedure recently (is that what you are doing?)  and has improved his quality of life.

    Scanning, PDFs, editing, who knows about all this?

    What I want to do:

    Scan a multi page document with a Fujitsu IX500 scanner into a Windows 10 computer which creates a PDF file. (this I got!)

    Merge digitally that PDF file with additional single page PDF files containing photos from another piece of software making just 1 PDF file in the end. (this not as easy)

     

    I do not want to print out that second PDF group before scanning because of the unavoidable loss in quality.

    Any help with this appreciated.

    I don't think minors should go out and get vaccinated solo. That said, if our school system says "get vaccinated and you do NOT have to wear a mask to school next year",  my kid that's soon to be Senior would be first in line get it. Really, nobody we know has had a problem with vaccinations and this is gonna turn into a convenience driven thing I suspect .

    If you attended public schools in Alabama, you've been vaccinated for all kinds of good stuff in the past. Had a guy at work yesterday tell me had wasn't getting a Covid shot and that he had never been vaccinated. What? I asked, did you attend public school? Yes, he said. Well, you've been vaccinated.

     

    The specifics:

    Children attending 5 year-old-kindergarten through 12th grade must have had 5 doses of diphtheria/tetanus/pertussis vaccine (4 if the 4th dose was received after the 4th birthday) and 4 doses of polio vaccine (3 if the 3rd dose was received after the 4th birthday). Booster doses of tetanus-diphtheria toxoid vaccine must be given every 5-10 years after the preschool booster. Children in these grades should also have received 2 doses of measles-containing vaccine and 1 dose each of mumps and rubella vaccine, usually administered as 2 doses of MMR vaccine. Varicella (chickenpox) vaccine for kindergarten entry became a requirement in 2001. This requirement will increase by one grade cohort until Fall 2013, when varicella documentation will be required for all children, kindergarten through 12th grade (see chart below). A positive test for varicella immunity or documentation of chickenpox disease is acceptable in lieu of varicella vaccine. Also, children attending 6th grade are required to have Tdap.
