You can create a connection to the URL and load() the connection.
Like this:
con <-
url('http://rss.acs.unt.edu/Rdoc/library/twang/data/raceprofiling.RData')
load(file=con)
close(con)
str(raceprofiling)
But the easiest way is to save the file and then load it.

I tried the load() already. It does not work. The erro is shown as following:
load() works - I downloaded the data and then used load() - it works.
I don't know if load() accepts an URL as a source, because that gave me
IMMEDIATELY an error.
