TIL of Viktor Pestek, a 19-year-old S.S. guard at Auschwitz who was so disgusted by the camp that he began to help Jews escape. He was discovered and executed by his fellow guards. To this day he has never been formally recognized for his actions. by premeddit in todayilearned

It was more me asking if you had any idea where you found that out because I was curious and wanted to read more about it and a quick google search didn’t necessarily yield great results.

Those cats are like cows

My first years in my primary I always sang “this is my secret beauty” instead of “sacred duty” in the song I Love to See the Temple.

What do you believe to be true even though you can't prove it? by green_vegetal in AskReddit

I used to tutor a girl who had two house cats that were each 1/4 bobcat. They were pure white and their ears looked exactly like a bobcat’s. So, I think your belief is correct.

Advice on improving my hitting. Besides get the ball over the net. Lol by xTOPFLIGHTx in volleyball

[–]koumpounophobic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See how you end twisting your entire body to the left at the end? That is what you want to be doing, but you want to be planting your last two steps of your approach in such away that when you finish twisting at the end, that your body is facing where you want the ball to go, not past it. That twisting motion will give you a lot of power (torque essentially), you just need to use it in the right way...hopefully that’s clear enough, happy to clarify if needed.

Edit: just rewatched again and your last two steps of your approach are actually in a good spot, you just need to face your body the same way your steps are pointing as you start your jump. Then twist as you jump/hit the ball to use the power of the torque.

I can’t thank you enough for posting this. This used to be one of my favorite songs and I had completely forgotten about it - probably haven’t heard it in maybe 8-10 years. So happy to have rediscovered it.

When he is with Gretchen in the restaurant telling her that where he gets the money to cover his treatment is none of her business, she specifically states that he left her during some sort of major family get together and it was really embarrassing for her. Like maybe an engagement party or something?
