@pcNielsen @kdiggs74 At the moment the goalie kicked the ball he was in front of the furthest back defender. A player can sprint past the defense to receive a ball already in motion.

@JohnBrownUniv Wait. I thought the official freshman photo was outside J. Alvin right there below the balcony. 🪣💦 At least that is what the seniors used to announce in the cafeteria in my day.

Woah. Just found a REALLY old password for a Callwave account. Bringing back the memories of dial-up modems. Being able to receive a message while connected to the internet was once killer technology.

Serious Judges 12:6 vibe going on.

Powerful. A Ukrainian approaches unknown soldiers and yells at them to say "palyanitsa". Realizing they're Russian, he tells them they can't tell him not to videotape, as Ukrainians constitution allows him to.

Ouch. Fitting meme for the moment. Surely there is something more that can be done besides sanctions and denouncing Russia's invasion of Ukraine. I know, I know, it's complex and World War III fears and all--but is the world really just going to sit by and watch?

[Peter Armstrong @simpleorange]

Fascinating to see internet sleuths self organizing to help geolocate footage coming out of Ukraine. It is remarkable how quickly the Twitter hive steps up to provide assistance in moments of crisis. Definitely one of Twitter's brighter sides.

@justindlong @JDSayersMish Most stock research sites have an option to run a stock screen that shows stocks by dividend yield. Some examples of stocks with dividends: $WMT $NEM $XRX $CBRL $MMM

My wife and I went to the "big city" in search of foods we miss from Nepal and I thoroughly enjoyed this chole puri.

Picked a great day to try #Worldle. I am no geography pro but this country outline is one I am quite familiar with.

Well, that is a first. I was just pinged on @slack for server help by a client who is literally on a boat in the middle of the Amazon!

@QBCares Hey. It seems like you might want to know that your customer support specialists don't know if your company transmits 1099 data to the IRS using the Combined Federal/State Filing (CF/SF) method and your support articles provide conflicting information.

Am I the only one that thinks a good spatula is hard to find? Not too steep of an angle, not too wide, not too flimsey, not so many holes that it's a pain to wash...

The "Language on Purpose" podcast I was invited on as a guest a few months back--is UP! If you are learning a language or you are a language teacher, this is worth a listen (in my humble opinion 😆).

[WordClimber @WClimber]

1/ In the latest episode of Language On Purpose our founder sits down with Mary Lynn Kindberg to discuss vocabulary acquisition, the role of flashcards in language learning, & why he made WordClimber.

A thread 🧵 of some of the highlights 👇

Anyone know the official word for these frosty thorn like prickles on all the branches? #arwx

@John_Pijanowski @EdFuller_PSU It boggles my mind. This is how strongly they believe the vaccine is either useless or riskier than the virus. They are more concerned about a well studied, low risk and effective vaccine than an understudied, new virus with alarming rates of hospitalization, death.

Just enough snow to make a little snowman with my youngest daughter. #arwx #snow

@ryantarinelli The AR Dept. of Health currently reports Pulaski county as having 15,577 active cases. With a population of roughly 400,000 that is 3.9% of the population with an active case officially or 7.8 to 11.7% unofficially if you go with a 1:1 or 1:2 reported to unreported case ratio!
