U.S. Marines Train with Small Arms to Counter Drone Threats in California Exercise

U.S. Marines Train with Small Arms to Counter Drone Threats in California Exercise

U.S. Marines recently conducted a three-day training exercise in Twentynine Palms, California, focusing on countering small Unmanned Aerial Systems (sUAS) using standard-issue small arms and light weapons. The exercise involved operatives from the 1st and 2nd Marine Divisions, who trained against consumer drones equipped with explosives or used for reconnaissance, flown by well-trained pilots from the US Marine Corps’ Tactical Training and Exercise Control Group. Weapons utilized included M27 automatic rifles, M1014 combat shotguns, and M32A1 and M320 grenade launchers. The sUAS craft flew at speeds over 90 miles per hour, with attack runs as close as 20 meters, providing a realistic threat scenario. The training aimed to build confidence and decisiveness in Marines when facing drones without electronic countermeasures, a growing concern in modern battlefields.

Add-On Utility Fees Lead to Evictions for U.S. Tenants, Sparking Legal Challenges and Tenant Strikes

Add-On Utility Fees Lead to Evictions for U.S. Tenants, Sparking Legal Challenges and Tenant Strikes

Tenants across the U.S. are increasingly facing eviction due to unpaid 'ratio utility billing system' (Rubs) fees, which are add-on utility charges billed by landlords or third-party companies rather than directly by utility providers. These fees, often not clearly disclosed in leases or apartment listings, can significantly increase housing costs and are calculated using formulas based on factors like unit size or occupancy, not individual usage. For low-income tenants, falling behind on Rubs can lead to eviction, even if rent is paid. Constance Soule, an 81-year-old disabled tenant in California, faced eviction over these charges despite having paid her rent. Jaslyn Cosey in Las Vegas also faced eviction after her state assistance for back rent was applied to fees instead of rent. Tenant advocates and attorneys report a rise in utility-related eviction cases nationwide, with some studies showing utility fees as the most common charge on top of rent for tenants facing eviction.

Kathy Taggares Donates $2.5 Million to Establish ASPCA Community Veterinary Clinic in Carson, California

Kathy Taggares, owner and president of K.T.'s Kitchens, has made a $2.5 million donation to establish The ASPCA Community Veterinary Clinic by Kathy Taggares in Carson, California. The clinic, which celebrated its grand opening on July 29, is located approximately one mile from her food processing plant. This new facility aims to provide free and affordable basic and preventive veterinary care for dogs and cats, including vaccinations, treatment for minor illnesses and injuries, humane euthanasia services, and free spay/neuter surgeries. Taggares's philanthropic efforts in animal welfare began after she rescued an injured stray kitten, Princess Millie, in 2002, which inspired her to dedicate significant resources to helping animals in need. Since 2012, she has contributed over $4.8 million to the ASPCA, initially supporting mobile spay/neuter clinics in underserved communities in Los Angeles.
