There is a reasonable debate to be had about the role of SROs. On the one hand, the rhetoric about SROs leading to mass criminalization of everyday schoolhouse mischief is utterly overblown. As the Congressional Research Service has noted, the past two decades have seen a dramatic expansion of police in schools and a nearly 75 percent decrease in juvenile arrests. The story told by social justice activists—that bad SROs can increase tension and alienate students—has been the case in some schools....

“Democrats aren’t right about everything,” Rep. Ryan said during an interview earlier this summer. He’s right, of course—but even a cursory examination of his policy positions leaves one wondering which issues he actually thinks Democrats are wrong about. In just the past two years, he’s voted to federalize elections, admit the District of Columbia as the 51st state, impose onerous new background check requirements on gun owners, and grant mass amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants, in addition to co-sponsoring legislation that would restrict the right of states to legislate on abortion, and voting in favor of President Joe Biden’s $3....

Twitterattis Nishant Singh and Abhimanyu Sranamade public a thread alleging that Twitter user Neel Patel alias Hitesh Patel has been scamming people for more than 15 years. Singh has even published a thirty-minute video on his YouTube channel and made a detailed thread on what he has dug on Patel. Watch the video here. According to the netizens, fraudster Hitesh Patel used Squeaks Media apps, his own creation, to promote the irresistible deals....

Watanabe has been one of the most reliable players down the stretch of games not only for the Nets, but throughout the entire league. The team has leaned heavily on him amid their six-game winning streak, and he has performed every time he’s been called on. Not only has he been in the team’s closing lineup for every game since returning from injury on December 10, he is third on the team in fourth quarter minutes behind only Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving....

I get lectures like that, too. Every teenager with concerned parents does. Last week I was sitting in a cafe eating bagels and drinking coffee with my mother, discussing my future. Looking at me with a bagel in one hand and her paper coffee cup in the other, she said, “Nothing magical happens when you turn 18. You don’t suddenly grow up.” I have to grow up now. I have choices to make....

Any visitor to China is overwhelmed by the contradictions inherent in its helter-skelter progress. During a journey in any direction, but particularly from the rich coastal provinces into the hinterland, you cover in the space of a few hundred miles every stage of economic development–from high-tech industrialization to primitive subsistence agriculture. Yet even in China’s richest provinces there were pockets of severe underdevelopment and backwaters of tradition–reminders of how difficult it must be to govern a country so extreme in its diversity....

Dana White has been one of Cerrone’s biggest supporters heading into the fight, praising him as one of the best to ever do it and slamming people for the level of disrespect shown to him. It’s anything but a “tune-up” fight for Conor McGregor and the Irishman knows that. Given that it’s now the week of the fight, many noticed on the Embedded series that “Cowboy” Cerrone was walking with a limp....

Buyers on Alibaba-owned e-commerce site Taobao can order a 6-inch pensive statuette of the 45th president of the United States starting at 999 Chinese yuan ($150). The figurine features former President Trump meditating in a lotus position with his eyes shut. The miniature sculpture, which can be made in either porcelain or resin, is listed on Taobao as “Ancient India Know-All Buddha Trump.” The toy is accompanied by the phrase “Make Your Company Great Again,” a play on the president’s 2016 campaign slogan “Make America Great Again....

Republican figures are “putting distance between themselves and Donald Trump,” one Washington analyst told Newsweek on Tuesday; however another commented that many are “too afraid of their own voters to stage any kind of takedown of Trump from the top.” While Trump remains a very powerful figure in the GOP, and polls show he’s the favorite to win the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, he has repeatedly clashed with members of his own party in recent weeks....

Trump spent his time in Japan cozying up with leaders including Russian President Vladimir Putin, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Chinese President Xi Jinping, all of whom have been widely condemned in western democratic circles for a variety of human rights abuses, war crimes and corruption accusations. And after the meeting, he took an impromptu trip to the border of North and South Korea, where he met dictator Kim Jong Un and became the first U....

“Given all the things my father has been called, particularly a ‘racist,’ it sure sounds odd that he’d let his son vacation with a black man or hang out with Michael Jackson, doesn’t it?” the younger Trump observes. “If he’s a racist, he’s sure not very good at it.” In Triggered, Trump writes that he would play video games with Jackson when the pop star was a resident of Trump Tower, Bloomberg reported....

The book has been met with left-wing criticism and a number of controversies since its publication on November 5, but received enough backing from supporters of the Trump family, Republicans and others to achieve the accolade. Its success is reminiscent of Trump Jr.’s father President Donald Trump’s journey to the White House despite the outpouring of condemnation from the left. Trump Jr. welcomed the news of reaching the number one spot by thanking the “deplorables” who bought the book—referring to the term famously used by Hillary Clinton to describe Trump supporters during the 2016 presidential election....

The former president is reported to be desperate to divert attention away from the damning January 6 hearing by announcing he will be vying for the White House for the third time. The speculation increased in the wake of the damning June 28 testimony of former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson, who said Trump was aware that his supporters were armed on January 6 but he still ordered them to the Capitol, and that he tried to grab the steering wheel of the presidential SUV as he was so desperate to join the riot as it was unfolding....

During a recent interview for L’Equipe, Dominic Thiem’s father described his coaching methods while also lauding his wife’s tenacity - an attribute he believes was imbibed by his son. The Thiem family may not be on the best of terms with Dominic Thiem’s former coach Gunter Bresnik, but that didn’t stop Wolfgang from praising the latter’s role in his son’s development. That said, Wolfgang Thiem does believe that his son could have scaled even greater heights if a former champion had taken charge from Bresnik during Dominic’s earlier years on the tour....

Now Cousins will have another chance at free agency, and this time, he can’t lose. MORE: NFL’s 25 highest-paid players To many, the franchise tag was considered a loss for Cousins in light of the large guarantees given to Brock Osweiler and Sam Bradford. Cousins has responded this year by showing more consistency and throwing the ball at a torrid pace. (He might throw for over 5,000 yards.) The 28-year-old has exceeded expectations, which means he’s on the path to potentially becoming the highest paid player in the NFL....

If you’re like me, you ignored your health woes large and small this past year, terrified that if you stepped foot in a medical center, packed with people sick from COVID-19, you’d wind up infected. Sometimes you did fine: the splinter worked its way out, your sniffles vanished. But other times, disastrously. Someone I know was too terrified to go to the E.R. when his vision turned blurry and by the time his wife convinced him, it was too late....

One of the most useful items in the game is the Crock Pot which allows players to turn food into meals that can restore hunger points, HP, or Sanity.
