I want to become a police officer and work my way up to FBI SWAT (4 year criminal science degree to even be a special agent) but I am wondering if police officers in the US Are really targeted and have violent/deadly actions towards them Off duty
There are plenty of great rivalries in college football, and I won't try to argue that this one is better than the Iron Bowl, or The Game, or The Red River Shootout Showdown, or any of the great historical matchups. BUT, I will argue that this rivalry game has something that no other game has: proximity. The two campuses are across the street from each other in the small town of Arkadelphia, Arkansas. If you are a decent golfer (I'm not), you could hit a five-iron from one stadium to the other.
This game is tied as the oldest rivalry matchup in Division II, with the first official game being played in 1907. It has been a remarkably even series, with Ouachita winning the last four games to take a 44-43-6 lead all-time. As you might expect, with such a competitive history and such easy access to the rival's campus by students from both schools, there is a LONG tradition of pranks - most harmless, some less so - during the week leading up to the game. In 1978, Henderson State aviation student airdropped thousands of red-painted marshmallows on the Ouachita campus. Henderson State students usually have a massive bonfire at their pep rally, and notable Ouachita alum Mike Huckabee once snuck over and set fire to it the night before the pep rally. Ouachita's homecoming queen was kidnapped by HSU students that she was friendly with from their days together at Arkadelphia High School. I once got a stern talking to by the local police department (who are always on high alert for this week) after attempting to cover the Henderson State bridge sign with purple tablecloths. It.... might have not been the most well-thought-out plan.
The Battle of the Ravine game this season should be another good one. Henderson State is 9-1 and playing for a share of the conference championship. Defending conference champion Ouachita is 8-2 and while a championship seems out of reach, there is still an outside shot at reaching the playoffs. Besides, denying HSU a conference championship is more than enough motivation on its own. Either way, just before noon on Saturday, state troopers will block traffic on Highway 67, and the Henderson State Reddies will march across the street to do battle with the Ouachita Baptist Tigers in front of a crowd that will likely exceed the total population of Arkadelphia. Go Tigers!

States like New York, California or Florida do have their capital city outside of their biggest population centers. It has two advantages. It would relieve Denver from being overrun by Texans and Californians as they could already go to a Colorado in their state, and it would help develop a previously more neglected region with our great culture.
San Antonio has Loop 410 and Loop 1604 as well as the naturally inner looped major highway spokes of 35/37/281/10.
Houston has Loop 610 and Beltway 8 as well as the inner looped major highway spokes of 45/10/90/59.
DFW has Loop 820 and Loop 635 as well as the inner looped highway spokes of 45/35/30/366 as well as the 183/20/30 inter-city loops. The highways 114, and 190 are the closest DFW comes to an outer loop, but the other loops more than make up for the lack of an outer loop for now.
So, what plans does Austin have to create an inner and outer loop, if any?
It seems that 360, 290/71/Ben White, and 183 form a really poor ad hoc inner loop with RR 620 and 45/130 forming a lackadaisical unofficial outer loop thus far.
