When masked agents pounded on the windows of the family vehicle, Army Sgt. Hedar Leonel Turcios Juárez’s six-year-old daughter started crying. She sat, buckled into her car seat, as U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials ordered the windows rolled down and announced they would be detaining Cristy Maryori Villafranca Trejo — the child’s mother and Turcios’s wife — for a missed court appearance. The child watched as the figures handcuffed her mother.“It took me a minute to realize what was going on — my heart just dropped,” Turcios told Military Times about the encounter. “It was very hard looking at my daughter crying because of what was going on and not being able to do something and keep my family together.”On July 11, ICE detained Villafranca Trejo as the family drove home after a trip to Walmart. Turcios said he observed a vehicle following his family out of their military housing subdivision on the way to the store and then, when the family left Walmart, it reappeared. He was pulled over shortly after, the sergeant said, as unmarked vehicles boxed in the family’s Dodge Durango.“All I was trying to do was stay calm because my daughter was watching everything that…

On April 24, 1933, a legend was born when Grumman test pilot Paul Hovgard flew the prototype Grumman J2F “Duck,” designated XJF-1, on its first flight, taking off from the factory’s grass strip at Farmingdale, New York. The flight marked the debut of one of the most versatile amphibious aircraft ever created. Columbia-made Grumman J2F-6 Duck in flight during December 1943. It wears the three-tone dark blue/intermediate blue/off-white camouflage adopted for ship-based airplanes that year. Image: U.S. Navy Originally designed as a utility aircraft, the Duck has the distinction of being the U.S. Navy’s first amphibious aircraft to outfit its initial utility squadrons and to serve in various roles throughout World War II. Grumman’s New Design In 1931, a streamlined amphibious float, designed by Grumman designer Charles Tilgner, became the basis for a new aircraft to replace the older Loening amphibious plane flown by the U.S. Navy. The Loening OL was first flown in 1923. It was an amphibious biplane, powered by a 400-horsepower Liberty L-12 engine, with a large single hull and stabilizing floats fitted underneath each lower wing. The hull was built of Duralumin on a wooden frame, with five watertight compartments, and the fuselage was constructed on top…

It’s going to be Deshaun Watson as the starting quarterback for the Cleveland Browns to open the NFL regular season, which means one thing: Get your popcorn ready because this should be entertaining.No, not entertaining in the typical star-player-doing-amazing-things kind of way.Entertaining in the cinema drama kind of way because what we have here is the NFL equivalent of a villain being given the opportunity to redeem himself and then deciding – by his actions – if he continues to be reviled based on what happens next.DESHAUN WATSON BOOED BY BROWNS FANS, FIRES BACK AFTER POOR OUTING OPENS DOOR FOR SHEDEUR SANDERS What happened Sunday evening is Browns coach Todd Monken and general manager Andrew Berry picked Watson to be their starter over Shedeur Sanders, to culminate a competition that spanned the entire offseason and into the first two preseason games.That decision was announced to the players on Monday morning.And now we see the next chapter of what has been the tremendously disappointing story of Watson in Cleveland.

Secretary of Education Linda McMahon on Sunday said the federal government is committed to “cracking down” on sexual misconduct involving teachers, staff and other adults in positions of authority in schools across the country.In an interview, McMahon denounced what she described as school districts reassigning, rather than firing, teachers accused of misconduct involving students.”And it’s not part of their record or anything, so we have really been cracking down on that as well,” she said during an appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union.”McMahon, citing a 2004 Education Department literature review, said about one in 10 eighth- through 11th-grade students reported sexual misconduct by an educator.
