JUST CURIOUS…. Is this👇🏽true?

I’m honored to have performed tonight, for the Paris 2024 Opening Ceremony, and so full of joy to be back in one of my very favorite cities! Most of all, I’m so happy to be celebrating these amazing athletes, with all their stories of sacrifice and determination, pain and perseverance. All of you have been so focused on your dream, and whether or not you take home a medal, I hope that being here means that it has come true for you! You should all be so proud, we know how hard you have worked to be the best of the best. Stay focused, keep going, my heart is with you! - Celine xx… Photo: Laura Gilli

@Rainmaker1973 Wish we all had her courage

The story of Zinaida Portnova, the 16 year old girl who took the lives of more than 100 Nazis by poisoning their food. She was captured by the Gestapo, and while being interrogated, she disarmed the Nazi detective and shot him in the head. In her attempt to escape, she executed two more Nazis. A seventh-grade student at the 385th school in Leningrad, Zinaida became member of the local underground Komsomol organization, named Young Avengers, during the German invasion. She became employed as a kitchen aide in Obol. In August, she poisoned the food meant for the Nazi garrison stationed there. Immediately falling suspect, she said she was innocent and ate some of the food in front of the Nazis to prove it was not poisoned. After she did not fall ill immediately, they released her. Portnova became sick afterwards, vomiting heavily but eventually recovering from the poison after drinking much whey. After she did not return to work, the Germans realized she had been the culprit and started searching for her. When she was captured in 1943, during the Gestapo interrogation, she took the investigator's pistol off the table, then shot and killed him. When two German soldiers entered after hearing the gunshots, she shot them as well. She then attempted to escape the compound and ran into the woods, where she was caught near the banks of a river. She was executed in 1944.

@Sportsnutz99 @fredcityandy @espn Hey Howie you say that like you know anything😂

@fredcityandy @espn Says a middle aged white man.

Hey @espn please ask your women’s basketball announcers to stop using the phrase ‘man defence’ and the term ‘freshman.’ There are no men on the court… and it’s 2024. #MarchMadness2024

@CityFredPolice Hope he receives mental health support. Thank you to first responders

A stockbroker named Nicholas Winton saved the lives of 669 Czechoslovakian children, most of them Jewish, by taking them to England. He never told his wife what he had done. He refused to take credit until his wife found a scrapbook of the children he had saved and gave it to the BBC. This is what a real hero looks like.

I can't take him for a walk on the beach because he bothers you and disrupts the holiday... I can't rent a house if I have a dog, and I can't take him with me. However, I can take him to the rubble to find you after an earthquake, to the woods if you get lost in the mountains and don't have a map or GPS, to the snow because you took an unapproved detour, and to the water if you have entered the sea despite the red flag and your life is in danger! Finally, he's just a dog, but he'll find you. And he will rescue you!! finally .... He's just a dog, but he will find you. And he will save you!! 💕💕💕
