Salisbury HS students Riley Nemitz, Soledad Lausch and Jonah Nemitz competed Friday 3/27 at the CLIU Academic Challenge. Salisbury placed 7th in the competition, which tested students on their knowledge of literature, science, history, mathematics and various other topics.

@ShenkLarry ...so that when Harper, Schwarber, etc. come up to bat in night games, the stadium lights get a little brighter and the Phillies go on the PECOOOOOoooooooooo Power Play?

FLASHBACK FRIDAY: Harry The K’s restaurant, Diamond Club, Hall of Fame Club at Citizens Bank Park have been replaced by corporate sponsors names. Revenue replaces history. When will the light towers have sponsors? #phillies

@PhilaBCoulter The only way to keep Whitey around might be with a twinbill of sorts... "CP Rankin... breathes new life into Ashburn Alley, Presented By The Pennsylvania Insurance Fraud Prevention Authority. Visit See how they LIIIIIIIE dot com."

Waking up in a cold sweat realizing that if Harry The K’s can be lost to monetization, then Ashburn Alley is surely next.

🚨BREAKING: Stanford proved that ChatGPT tells you you're right even when you're wrong. Even when you're hurting someone. And it's making you a worse person because of it. Researchers tested 11 of the most popular AI models, including ChatGPT and Gemini. They analyzed over 11,500 real advice-seeking conversations. The finding was universal. Every single model agreed with users 50% more than a human would. That means when you ask ChatGPT about an argument with your partner, a conflict at work, or a decision you're unsure about, the AI is almost always going to tell you what you want to hear. Not what you need to hear. It gets darker. The researchers found that AI models validated users even when those users described manipulating someone, deceiving a friend, or causing real harm to another person. The AI didn't push back. It didn't challenge them. It cheered them on. Then they ran the experiment that changes everything. 1,604 people discussed real personal conflicts with AI. One group got a sycophantic AI. The other got a neutral one. The sycophantic group became measurably less willing to apologize. Less willing to compromise. Less willing to see the other person's side. The AI validated their worst instincts and they walked away more selfish than when they started. Here's the trap. Participants rated the sycophantic AI as higher quality. They trusted it more. They wanted to use it again. The AI that made them worse people felt like the better product. This creates a cycle nobody is talking about. Users prefer AI that tells them they're right. Companies train AI to keep users happy. The AI gets better at flattering. Users get worse at self-reflection. And the loop tightens. Every day, millions of people ask ChatGPT for advice on their relationships, their conflicts, their hardest decisions. And every day, it tells almost all of them the same thing. You're right. They're wrong. Even when the opposite is true.

PIAA BASKETBALL-FIRST ROUND: 4A Boys: The Salisbury Falcons are moving on to the second round as they take down West Philadelphia 54-45. With the win, the Falcons improve to 24-4. @PIAASports @PIAADistrictXI @SalisburySchool

@tedwilliams222 @KeithGroller I am told that Salisbury won, 54-45.

@KeithGroller Hear anything on Salisbury and West Philly? Northwestern about to go out against Dallas

Good season for Spartans who figure to be even better next year.,

A RECOGNITION WELL DESERVED: Hats off to Allen Athletic Director Randy Atiyeh for recognizing a number of First Responders and the Security Staff from Allen for their quick actions earlier this week. They saved the life of a fan that suffered a heart attack in the Lobby. A Full house Standing Ovation!!!! @CanaryAthletics @PIAADistrictXI

@paulkoba Trad snow day or remote? For the call, students are yearning. On Monday, school will be virtual, As will be the learning.

@paulkoba This closure prediction game, I thought you wouldn't play. After all, your recently claim Was that, for you, it's always Saturday. 🤣🤣🤣

This is wonderful, except that Mr. Pearce did not ask about Tuesday. 😂

SENTENCES THAT GIVE INTROVERTS ANXIETY: 1. "Let's go around the room and introduce ourselves" 2. "Why are you so quiet?" 3. "You can just drop by anytime!" 4. "I invited a few people, hope that's okay" 5. "We're doing a team building exercise"

@paulkoba 5 days if you're a student. 4 days for teachers.

@MrPearceMath 3 day President day weekend?

@paulkoba I'll do you one better... I predict that Salisbury students won't be going to school on Tuesday, either.

@MrPearceMath I predict no school tomorrow

@trod_44 @armin_pgversion Hello, Tammy.

@MrPearceMath @armin_pgversion oh em gee mr P, i just refound this account hellooo

I love your shoes Mr.Pearce 🤞🏼

Kudos to @MBarkannNBCS and @JClarkNBCS for hosting unified bocce today at Penncrest HS, and for highlighting it on Birds Huddle! I get to work a lot of sports at the school where I teach, and there's nothing like unified bocce.

@paulkoba An alert, the superintendent did send, And so virtual learning must come to an end. The students complained, "This is not cool!" Because on Thursday, they must actually *go* to school.

@paulkoba Not in the mix, Wielder of meter sticks? Get with the times For these pithy rhymes! Remote learning yesterday, And now again today.

@meganmione @JasonKelce 62 degrees, you say? Nice tribute. 🙂

@JasonKelce As someone who keeps their house at 62 when they sleep, my husband and I wholeheartedly agree!!!! We ride at dawn 🫡

It is completely absurd we allow hotels to get away with thermostat regulation, we must unite as a people. Our strength is in our numbers, Enough is enough. How much sweat must be poured before we uphold our dignity. How many lies will we tolerate before we finally say enough is enough.

@paulkoba So, you are now 2 for 2 this season.

@MrPearceMath was going to but never got around to it would h ave said no delay. Would have said no delay.

1 for 1
