Ice Is Building A State Of The Art Urban Warfare Training Facility That Will Include Hyper Realistic Simulations Of Homes In Chicago And Arizona

In an acquisition form for the procurement of “hyper-realistic training devices” for a new training facility for its expanding Special Response Team (SRT) program, ICE outlined the details of plans for its new training center in a document published on the U.S. Federal Business Opportunities website. While ICE sought to redact the location of the new training facility in the document, it was not successful in doing so. After copying and pasting the document’s contents into a separate document, Newsweek was able to establish that the facility will be built at the Office of Firearms and Tactical Programs’ (OFTP) Tactical Operations Complex (TOC) at Fort Benning, Georgia....

Icymi Afcon Day 5 Gabon In Another Draw While Cameroon Go Top In Group A

In the opening game of the evening, Gabon were forced to settle for 1-1 draw. The hosts fell behind after an abysmal attempt at defending from Obiang allowed Prejuce Nakoulma to capitalise. The defender failed to deal with a long clearance and allowed Nakoulma to power through on goal and poke his shot past a helpless Ovono. The Burkinabe began to assert their authority and looked comfortable until Gabon’s Merlin Tandjigora picked out his teammate Pierre Emerick Aubameyang with a stellar pass....

Idaho Health Official Says Contact Tracing Basically Impossible As Covid Surge Overwhelms Hospital System

“The numbers got so big that it was basically impossible to keep up on the contact tracing,” Kern told Chuck Todd, who moderates Meet the Press, during the recent interview. “Our health district has been scrambling to get more people trained up…good contact tracing takes a couple of hours per person, but when you’re having 500 cases a week, you know, the man hours don’t really add up,” he explained....

Idaho Voters Would Expand Border To Protect Some From Portland Politics Poll

The poll, conducted by the Trafalgar Group and the organization Citizens for Greater Idaho, found that roughly 51 percent of state respondents are in favor of expanding the state’s borders. Citizens for Greater Idaho defines itself as an organization that aims to broaden Republican-dominated Idaho into parts of Oregon and other states so that “conservative counties can become a part of a red state,” according to its website. The group says its movement began with a focus on Oregon but now includes parts of California and Washington....

Ieds A Failure To Protect U.S. Troops

Spokesmen for the Marines reject Gayl’s allegation that the corps ignored the initial request. They say the corps convened a special “executive” session of the Marine Requirements Oversight Council to address the MRAP issue but opted instead to order an up-armored version of the Humvee, the M1114. The reason: there was no large-scale production line for MRAPs at the time. The general who signed the February 2005 request—which was called an “urgent universal needs statement”— Maj....

If Hazard Wants He Can Win The Ballon D Or Fabregas

Football’s biggest individual honour has been scooped by either Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi for each of the last 10 years, yet the Spain midfielder believes that his Belgian cohort is capable of inheriting the prize one day. He did, however, suggest that the 27-year-old, who continues to be linked with Real Madrid and Manchester City , will have to show greater focus if he wants to hit those heights....

If Only It Were Just A Movie

But “9/11”–as CBS is calling its film–is not the gory, tragic journey I had feared. There is not a drop of blood in it. Those horrific planes don’t show up until about 30 minutes into the film. At its best, “9/11” (airing on March 10) is as close to a feel-good movie as it can be, considering the tragic cloth from which it is made. Not that it’s always easy to watch....

If Statues To Slave Traders Were Educational We D Have Hitler On The Public Square Opinion

A few themes have emerged on the side of those who disagree with the toppling of the statue, many of them not just knee-jerk but demonstrably wrong. No, Karen, history has not been erased: if only erasing something so heinous were that simple. Even the city’s approval of Colston has not been erased, it’s just been symbolically and dramatically withdrawn—and all it took was 125 years, a global protest for the incredibly reasonable suggestion that black lives matter, a crash, a roll and a splash....

If The Cleveland Indians Change Their Team Name Here Are 6 Replacement Options

The NY Times cited three people familiar with the decision, although those three differed on how Cleveland will move forward. Two sources told the times that Cleveland will be “moving forward without a replacement name then coming up with a new name in consultation with the public.” Basically what Washington Football Team did earlier this year when they changed names. One source told the Times that Cleveland plans “to keep the Indians name and uniforms for the 2021 season while working to shift away from it as early as 2022....

If You Re Unvaccinated Covid Reinfection Is Likely

Based on Yale University researchers’ analysis, there was an estimated 5% risk of reinfection by three months after peak antibody response for people who are unvaccinated. That means you could get reinfected with the virus as early as three months after your last COVID case. “These estimates are based on endemic conditions with no interventions," Hayley B. Hassler, MS, research associate in the department of biostatistics at Yale University and co-author of the study, tells Verywell....

Illinois Farmers Criticize Trump Trade War After Bailout Details Announced This Is Not A Long Term Solution

The administration said on Thursday that the bailout payments to farmers, initially announced in May, would be made over the next six months. The payments can total a combined $250,000 for dairy and hog producers and a combined $250,000 for producers of specialty crops like fruits and vegetables. The statement by the agriculture department says that “no applicant can receive more than $500,000.” The plan offers specifics on how the administration will financially assist farmers, which were not apparent when the bailout was announced earlier this year....

Cockburn, a junior, has been hit with a three-game suspension for selling apparel and memorabilia in June, before NCAA policy on name, image and likeness took effect. “We are disappointed with the three-game suspension, because there were unprecedented factors and altered timelines related to his decision to ultimately withdraw from the NBA Draft and return to school,” Illinois coach Brad Underwood said in a statement. “Once Kofi had a full understanding of where he stood regarding the draft, he made an educated decision to return to school, work toward his degree, and continue improving his game....

Immigration Politics Went Away During Covid 19. It S Coming Back. Opinion

For the first three years of his presidency, Trump attempted intermittently to implement the broad contours of his immigration agenda. While he wasted precious political capital on other legislative pursuits, such as a milquetoast tax cut and a misbegotten jailbreak initiative, Trump galvanized executive branch authority to slowly build the border wall, reform visa abuses, rescind President Barack Obama’s unconstitutional Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals amnesty, end the destructive Obama-era illegal immigration magnet of interior “catch and release,” and more generally seek a robust enforcement of extant immigration law....
