@KatieD_PhD Speaking of ruffling feathers, ornithological criminology hasn’t really gotten the attention that it deserves. It’s a definitely something to dip your beak into.

@jl_crim In all seriousness, what is the deal with the editorship of this journal?

[Geoffrey Barnes @barnesgc]

@LessCrime Or there are times that you make yourself feel clever by publicly insulting people who are new to doing this kind of work, thus encouraging them to simply stop listening to people like you and me.

Seems like a sub-optimal strategy.

@gmhales @cvillallera Ooooooo this looks cool as … it looks really cool!

@jnixy Bonus points! Turn off the sound. Hire a pianist to play ragtime tunes while using your phone. Have your family and colleagues write title cards to provide the dialog for all video content.

@Jim22Palmer We are all pulling for you. Well, except for this guy. But everyone who matters is behind you.

As your children grow, they encounter other adults who shape them even more than their parents do. These people are called “teachers” and they do incredible things. But this guy has played that role in tens of thousands of young lives. God bless you, Mr. C!

[La Salle College High School @lschs]

After 53 years and a countless number of students impacted by his commitment to the fine arts, Mr. Joe Ciccimaro '57 has taught his last lesson at La Salle College High School.

Thanks to Mr. C for his lifelong dedication to his alma mater - the longest tenured faculty member in our rich history - and to the students of the music program at La Salle College High School.

Enjoy a look at his last class - a rendition of Bald Mountain, the last song he conducted at our 2023 Spring Band Concert - and the band playing him out this afternoon with the "Alma Mater" on his last day. #HailLaSalle

@Jerry_Ratcliffe You have met @Stu_Greer. Hair loss is inevitable in New Jersey. They are just making sure that the hat measurement will work for the full length of the career.

@Jerry_Ratcliffe All graphs plotted xkcd style. Instant top scores from me as a grant reviewer. I won’t even waste time reading the text. Using this library tells me everything I need to know.

@Jerry_Ratcliffe @LessCrime And seven minutes, Jerry. Seven. Minutes. That’s at least one cuppa sacrificed for science.

[Geoffrey Barnes @barnesgc]

@Jerry_Ratcliffe I only go to Jersey when @Stu_Greer tells me it’s OK.

[Geoffrey Barnes @barnesgc]

@SuptClareSmith @DrClaireDavis @uniofleicester This makes me so damn happy!

[Geoffrey Barnes @barnesgc]

@coreyallen66 @DrObedMagny Honest questions… do your officers typically work single-crewed? If so, would double-crewing help?

@LessCrime @WouterSteenbeek Matt, if you are looking for an education on Philly, let’s meet up for beers at London’s own Passyunk Ave, the only place for cheesesteaks on the banks of the Thames!

[Geoffrey Barnes @barnesgc]

@fatalencounters @jnixy @OmahaZoo I dunno. I find the whole thing a bit … (you know what’s coming, don’t you?) … fishy.
