@FionaPrine What a sigh of relief I breathed at this news! My parents took me to one of John's concerts when I was just 6 months old. His is the first music I ever remember hearing. Was featured in my wedding. The soundtrack of my life. Sending you both all my love ❤️

@CeaseFirePA @JoeBiden After watching the clip, I'm not sure that was the pt he was making. He was saying vid games have neg impacts, but I dnt think he intended to link them to gun violence. I dnt know what he believes, but I think we should hear more than this clip before agreeing w this headline.

The faces of Reps. Omar, Ocasio-Cortez, Tlaib & Pressley are being used on an ad for a gun store in NC.

This kind of hateful rhetoric, stoked by President Trump’s racist and xenophobic remarks, is exactly why we need to pass legislation to #DisarmHate. https://t.co/mCrs2xE5z7

@HarvardBiz I'm searching for any articles you might have on approaches to responding to questions/suggestions/ideas on the spot, but coming up short. Trying to help an introverted team member with less experience be comfortable in meetings with clients. Any suggestions? Thanks!

The nightmare trip home to PIT from TVC isn't yet over, but shout out to the @flylansing staff and @Delta DL3849 crew for doing their best last night to make us comfortable and get us to DTW.

Rutter 3D printing, autonomous port-cleaning drones, and IoT Academy - Oh my! #resilient #econdev at the #100RCSummit @RDMRotterdam

[Chelsea Burket @ChelseaBurket]

Recognizing and building community capacity has been a big theme at #100RCSummit. Here's an example of how @ResilientHague is doing it! https://t.co/tf6s3kGvKZ

#Christchurch Mayor @LianneDalziel doesn't refine #resilience by bouncing back. Instead it's about the ability to adapt to and the capacity to co-create a new normal. #100RCSummit

[Chelsea Burket @ChelseaBurket]

Excited to be in #Rotterdam to help answer @Berkmic's challenge: Now that 100 cities have #resilience strategies, how do we implement to achieve our desired outcomes? #100RCSummit

1/ Darlyn Cristabel Cordova-Valle hadn’t seen her mom in 9 years. She came here to see her mom. She was hospitalized soon after she got here. Her mom asked for Darlyn to be released to her. The government refused.

She died on September 29 in our government’s custody. She was 10.

Best practice for employers looking to hire ex-offenders and other "second chance citizens" #inclusive #EconDev

.@SusanLongworth of the @ChicagoFed says to drive #inclusive #econdev, programs can't be substitutes for systems change and we must name, own, and measure racial disparities. #PolicySummit

[Chelsea Burket @ChelseaBurket]

.@LouForward is not your grandfather's #EconDev org. @wiederwohl says "Not all development is good. Not every job is a good job." They only give incentives to employers who pay above median wage to create #economic #prosperity #PolicySummit

[Chelsea Burket @ChelseaBurket]

Awesome resource to incr. #mobility for low-wage workers and decr. turnover for employers #econdev #PolicySummit

Job growth alone doesn't create upward economic mobility. Place-based strategies are necessary for #equitablegrowth and #inclusive #econdev #PolicySummit @OppInsights
