@AmtrakNECAlerts So turns out you really don’t have another train and after being told not to rebook while we were sitting on the train, we are now being told we should just rebook- and oh, there isn’t anything available until late this afternoon? Seriously @amtrak - do better. #GoPats
Good morning @Amtrak@AmtrakNECAlerts - on train 2290 in Queens, stopper for almost 2.5 hours. Staff is telling us we will be towed back to Penn and put on another train. Yet we received a text message saying our train was cancelled. What is real?
@AmtrakNECAlerts Yes - they brought us back to Penn station - and no one is communicating with us. They told us to there would be another train - but no one can tell us where or when.
Trump’s people are out of control! Assaulting a U.S. Senator for asking questions? Outrageous.
This is what happens in dictatorships—not the United States.
@TheSavBananas - I received an email last week telling me I was drawn in the lottery to buy tix today for Boston. I was supposed to get an email at 10 am EST with a link. The email hasn’t yet arrived. Help?
What if we harnessed Earth observation data to enhance decision-making around environment and socio-economic challenges?
Five years ago, that was the question @DEarthAfrica (DE Africa) set out to answer. Today, DE Africa is taking that data and using it as a building block for evidence-based, actionable insights for Africa.
"Key for us is supporting programs that drive action and impact, in which insight informs policy, and policy translates into tangible, positive change for communities," Helmsley Trustee Walter Panzirer said when announcing the expansion of our DE Africa funding.
Almost 100 government departments and major regional, interregional, and global institutions have adopted or facilitated adoption of the DE Africa tools and services. For example, multi-disciplinary researchers working with Ghana’s Space Science and Technology Institute have, through DE Africa’s satellite-based shoreline mapping capabilities, revealed critical insights into the dynamics of coastal erosion. In Koji State, Nigeria, researchers developed GIS-based hydrological models - validated through DE Africa’s data - to identify flood risk areas.

President Carter taught all of us what it means to live a life of grace, dignity, justice, and service. Michelle and I send our thoughts and prayers to the Carter family, and everyone who loved and learned from this remarkable man. https://t.co/dZHL0Nu0Tj
Mass. Dems praise Biden's decision:
"President Biden’s decision today not to seek reelection is the ultimate example of putting the country first — something Joe Biden has done over and over again in his unparalleled career,” said Gov. Healey.

Dear @thriftycars - apologies in advance for the public vent but seriously? Checked in on the app, have still been waiting in line for an hour (cause it turns out you can’t really bypass the line) and I’m told it could be another hour before my car is ready? 🤯#HappyMothersDay

I have a lot of opinions about what's happened at NPR this week, and I’ll keep most of them in-house. But I’ll say this: going public to torch your workplace, then doing media hit after media hit to continue torching it, is not a thing you do when you have good-faith intentions.
Congratulations to Mstyslav Chernov, Michelle Meisner and @raneyaronson for the well deserved #oscars win tonight! well done @frontlinepbs. Proud to be a part of @GBH tonight.
Thank you, @TheWorld & @carolynbeeler for asking me to talk about the late Seiji Ozawa and his legacy with the @BostonSymphony and the music world. https://t.co/VM76vFKXBj
