Please be advised that on Friday, 9/23/11, a terrorism-based, full-scale emergency exercise will take place in multiple locations around the Denver Metro area. The exercise will involve first responders from 81 different agencies, will be conducted at ten separate locations, and will include loud noises, simulated weapons, smoke, emergency vehicles and other equipment that will be audible and visible throughout the day. Please see the attached document for additional information. Two of the locations are Park Meadows Mall and Sky Ridge Medical Center so don’t be alarmed if you see a lot of activity in these locations.
I have a whole PDF of information, but I am not sure how to attach it.

Operation Mountain Guardian Emergency Exercise

The camps all have railroad facilities as well as roads leading to and from the detention facilities. Many also have an airport nearby. The majority of the camps can house a population of 20,000 prisoners. Currently, the largest of these facilities is just outside of Fairbanks, Alaska. The Alaskan facility is a massive mental health facility and can hold approximately 2 million people.
More than 100 emergency agencies will take part in a terrorism response exercise that promises to attract attention throughout the metro area.
Simulated explosions will boom, smoke will rise, and emergency vehicles will blare warning signals as fake weapons are drawn.
The exercise, Operation Mountain Guardian, is scheduled to begin at 5 a.m. and end at 4:30 p.m. and will involve 14 separate locations.
The exercise is an opportunity for regional first responders to react to a mock terrorist-driven catastrophe...
...Most of the action will break out at five locations over the course of the day: Park Meadows Mall; Smedley Elementary School; Union Station; Community College of Aurora; and Denver International Airport.
Sky Ridge Medical Center; Denver Health Medical Center and University of Colorado Hospital, will test their ability to handle a surge of injured patients during the drill. And Sports Authority Field at Mile High Stadium "may have a small role in helping to process the (pretend) mass casualties," Kimbrough said.
Catholic Charities will serve as an evacuation center where children from Smedley will be taken.

Here's MY local sports complex/national guard armory. It's on the right, by the arrow/marker. Those few-dozen dark things in rows are caravans and hummers, and there are a lot more than that there now. What's their purpose?

FAIRBANKS — A company of Stryker soldiers recently helped re-open a dangerous road in Afghanistan in a mission named after Fairbanks, according to an Army news release.
Five months in the planning, Operation Fairbanks involved clearing roadside bombs and building checkpoints on a road to a district capital that recently was held by the Taliban.

The New Jersey Office of GIS (OGIS) was formally established by Executive Order #122 on January 30, 2001, but has been fully functioning within New Jersey's Office of Information Technology since September 1999.
The mission of the Office of GIS is to promote the use of GIS technology among state agencies and to provide statewide leadership in the development of New Jersey's spatial data infrastructure.
New Jersey State Prison, home of New Jersey's death row. The prison towers over residences. It is located near the city's Trenton Thunder baseball stadium and much of the traffic passes by. To make things look a little better, a beautiful mural of baseball spectators was painted on the side. Razor wire glows in the lights overhead.

The United States Penitentiary Administrative Maximum Facility (ADX) is a supermax prison for men that is located in unincorporated Fremont County, Colorado, United States, south of Florence It is unofficially known as ADX Florence, Florence ADMAX, Supermax, or The Alcatraz of the Rockies It is operated by the Federal Bureau of Prisons, a division of the United States Department of Justice. ADX, a part of the Florence Federal Correctional Complex (FCC), houses the prisoners who are deemed the most dangerous and in need of the tightest control of all the prisoners within the United States Federal Prison System...
Prison facility
ADX Supermax
ADX Florence is a federal prison, comprising a 37-acre (15 ha), 490-bed complex at 5880 Highway 67, Florence, Colorado. It is one of three correctional facilities of the Florence Federal Correctional Complex (FFCC), each with a different overall security level
The prison houses several terrorists and spies who cannot be incarcerated in a normal prison due to national security concerns, as well as other criminals deemed too dangerous or too high-profile for even a maximum-security prison. However, 95 percent of the inmates have been sent to Florence from other prisons due to a history of violent behavior. These prisoners are kept in solitary confinement for 23 hours a day for at least the first year. Depending on their records, they can be let out for longer periods. The long-term goal is to transfer them to a less-restrictive prison to serve out the remainder of their terms
ADX Florence generally houses around 430 male prisoners, each assigned to one of six security levels. ADX Florence was designed jointly by DLR Group and LKA Partners of Colorado Springs.
Most cells' furniture is made almost entirely out of poured concrete, including the desk, stool, and bed. Each chamber contains a toilet that shuts off if plugged, a shower that runs on a timer to prevent flooding, and a sink missing a potentially dangerous trap. Rooms may also be fitted with polished steel mirrors bolted to the wall, an electric light, a radio, and a television that shows recreational, educational and religious programming.[These are considered privileges that may be taken away as punishment, so they are placed and remotely controlled such that the inmate does not actually come into contact with them. The 4 in (10 cm) by 4 ft (1.2 m) windows are designed to prevent the prisoner from knowing his specific location within the complex because he can see only the sky and roof through them. Additionally, inmates exercise in what has been described as an "empty swimming pool," so they do not know their location for possible escape. Telecommunication with the outside world is forbidden, and food is hand-delivered by correctional officers. The prison as a whole contains a multitude of motion detectors and cameras, 1,400 remote-controlled steel doors, and 12 ft (3.66 m) high razor wire fences. Laser beams, pressure pads, and attack dogs guard the area between the prison walls and razor wire.[citation needed]
Eric Rudolph, the Olympic Park bomber, lamented in a series of 2006 letters to a Colorado Springs newspaper that the ADX is meant to "inflict misery and pain." Charles Harrelson, who was sent to ADX after a failed attempt to escape from a Georgia prison, said "Part of the plan here is sensory deprivation," and "It could be infinitely worse." A former ADX warden described the place as "a cleaner version of Hell." There have been hundreds of "involuntary feedings" and four suicides. Most recently, in June 2009 Richard Reid, commonly known as the "shoe bomber", went on a hunger strike and was force-fed.

Visiting Supermax, the "Alcatraz of the Rockies," reveals nothing so much as an astonishing and eerie quiet.
It's not what one would expect of a place that houses 473 notorious terrorists, vicious murderers and violent, disruptive escape-prone inmates brought in from other federal penitentiaries.
I've visited noisy, boisterous state and federal prisons, where inmates scream for a visitor's attention or proclaim their innocence.
But at Supermax -- officially called "Administrative Maximum," or ADX -- everything is very tightly controlled, with nothing left to chance, so there is no particular sense of a threat, no feeling of vulnerability. View an explainer of Supermax's security
