Each face of two noncongruent parallelepipeds is a rhombus whose diagonals have lengths $\sqrt{21}$ and $\sqrt{31}$. The ratio of the volume of the larger of the two polyhedra to the volume of the smaller is $\frac mn$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m+n$. A parallelepiped is a solid with six parallelogram faces such as the one shown below.

On Monday, Millie puts a quart of seeds, $ 25\%$ of which are millet, into a bird feeder. On each successive day she adds another quart of the same mix of seeds without removing any seeds that are left. Each day the birds eat only $ 25\%$ of the millet in the feeder, but they eat all of the other seeds. On which day, just after Millie has placed the seeds, will the birds find that more than half the seeds in the feeder are millet? $ \textbf{(A)}\ \text{Tuesday}\qquad \textbf{(B)}\ \text{Wednesday}\qquad \textbf{(C)}\ \text{Thursday} \qquad \textbf{(D)}\ \text{Friday}\qquad \textbf{(E)}\ \text{Saturday}$

Triangle $ABC$ has circumcenter $O$ and circumcircle $\omega$. Let $A_{\omega}$ be the point diametrically opposite $A$ on $\omega$, and let $H$ be the foot of the altitude from $A$ onto $BC$. Let $H_B$ and $H_C$ be the reflections of $H$ over $B$ and $C$, respectively. Point $P$ is the intersection of line $A_{\omega}B$ and the perpendicular of $BC$ at point $H_B$, and point $Q$ is the intersection of line $A_{\omega}C$ and the perpendicular of $CB$ at point $H_C$. The circles $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ have the respective centers $P$ and $Q$ and respective radii $PA$ and $QA$. Suppose that $\omega$, $\omega_1$, and $\omega_2$ intersect at another common point $X$. If $AO = \frac{\sqrt{105}}{5}$ and $AX = 4$, then $|AB - CA|^2$ can be written as $m - n\sqrt{p}$ for positive integers $m$ and $n$ and squarefree positive integer $p$. Find $m + n + p$.
