Lancaster, CA transformed its downtown in just 8 months by redesigning it's main street from a mini-highway to a tree-lined boulevard. For the cost of just $11.5M, the project has generated $273M in economic output since 2010, creating 800 jobs, and nearly doubling tax revenue!
Want safer streets? Rebuild them so that people aren't obligated to rely on the most dangerous - and least scalable - mode to get around.
In Paris, owners of big, heavy cars will have to pay extra to park. Deputy Mayor: “There are no dirt paths , no mountain roads … SUVs are absolutely useless in Paris. Worse, they are dangerous, cumbersome and use too many resources to manufacture." theguardian.com/world/2023/jul…
If your kid gets cancer in the US, and you’re not insured, it will either not be fully treated and/or hospital bills will bankrupt you. If a billionaire builds a death trap and takes it for an underwater excursion, the government will pay for the very expensive rescue mission.

Tough loss for Team USA vs the Dutch. But now we have to replace our highways with bike lanes. Sorry, those are just the rules of the World Cup.
A Special Thank You! | Thank you to everyone - clinic attendees, coordinators and instructors - who made the 4-Umpire Clinic, in partnership with @MidAtlanticUmps, a resounding success. A final thank you is in order to @UDBlueHens @DelawareBASE! #BeaBetterUmpire #MACUmpires
LONDON: 184 SUVS DEFLATED ACROSS WEST LONDON ON MONDAY EVENING 184 SUVs disarmed in South Kensington, Maida Vale, St. John's Wood, Queen's Park, and Holland Park. Statement from West London TX follows:
I’m not pro-abortion. Abortion is a necessary medical procedure. To say someone’s pro-abortion is like saying they’re pro-appendectomy. It’s ridiculous. Abortion is healthcare. Period. Full stop. End of discussion.
Triple Crown Sports and @OffyHuman have joined forces to produce the following video, designed to bring awareness to the declining numbers of sports officials and the inevitable damage being done to the youth sporting experience when there aren’t enough officials to call the game
Kudos to @MiLB #umpire Chandler Durham for reaching his goal of cycling💯 miles to raise funds for UMPS CARE and our hospital program! Chandler & Dave Martinez teamed up to create a campaign called Bike for Bears, and they are rocking it! give.umpscare.com/campaign/bike-…
Training Program with @MidAtlanticUmps Clinic Announcement | New England 3-Umpire Clinic | October 21-23 | Instruction led by #NCAA Coordinator, @ChrisUCU and United DoT, @bdebrauwere. Information/Registration: bit.ly/3RKQjU6 #BeaBetterUmpire #UmpiresAdvanceUnited
Picking up groceries with an F-150 is like... Cracking nuts with a sledgehammer or Making toast with a flamethrower. 6 out of 10 trips are under 5 miles. Love this ad from the UK.
United Peach State 3-Umpire Clinic from @LakePointSports, September 27-October 2 | We are pleased to announce the presence of additional #NCAA Coordinators, David Brown and Mike McCray who will be on-site observing and evaluating umpires. #BeaBetterUmpire #UmpiresAdvanceUnited
Why should you become a high school official? You’ll meet new people, stay in shape, earn extra money and, most importantly, make a difference. Sign up today to fill the critical shortage of officials in every sport in our state! #BecomeAnOfficial highschoolofficials.com/?share=NFS-010…
Remember when they were trying to figure out why there was a giant drop in crime like 30 years ago and they tried to say it was due to better policing… And then the Freakonomics dudes figured out it’s because an entire generation wasn’t forced to give birth to unwanted kids.
When your two main things to bolster your argument are: 1. Invisible man in the sky 2. A bunch of slave owners who lived 250 years ago. Your argument is…likely not smart
Umpiring is a beautiful thing when it’s done right. TSEUA umpire Dave Albertson with great communication and hustle working with his partner to take the back end of a run down in the two man system.
Pretty excited to wear my new gear to represent @OffyHuman and celebrate all the good things they are doing!

Great day to check out some umpires @CHEastAthletics
ADOPTED❤️
Leonard is one of the sweetest cats we have ever met. Any time someone passes his kennel he is sure to greet them with a chirping meow and outstretched paws. But, sadly, once potential adopters turn to see him, they leave the room with quiet snickers and whispers.
Retention is not all that difficult if new umpires are treated fairly. 1. Stop killing them with all kinds of fees + mandatory meetings 2. Assign umpires based on their skill level,not years of service. 3. Provide them with resources to succeed + make sure they are paid fairly
@johnnyg523 One thing I've been seeing recently is, it's not just getting new guys in and certified, but retention. How to keep umpires going for more than 1-2 years seems to be the biggest problem in a lot of places.
Building safer streets, more prosperous streets, and more beautiful streets go hand in hand. Let's do it everywhere!

When you’re 17 and a bonded trio and you know no one is ever going to adopt you all together so you’ll probably be stuck here forever but they do snacks at 9pm

Hard to believe, but these two pictures are of the same place in Boston, four years apart. This project went over schedule and over budget, but the only questions that will linger into the future are why the heck it wasn't done sooner, and why more cities aren't following suit.
Want safer streets? Rebuild them so that people aren't obligated to rely on the most dangerous - and least scalable - mode to get around.
Millions of Americans don’t drive due to cost, age, or disability. They need options to get around. But building infrastructure for walking, biking, and transit also benefits people who DO drive, by relieving congestion and saving tax dollars on road maintenance and expansions.
