> A 14-year-old Alabama boy is on the brink of death after spending two years in “forced isolation.” His adoptive parents severely malnourished him to the point that he weighed only 55 pounds, leading neighbors to believe he was less than 10 years old.

>The teen was admitted to an Alabama children’s hospital on Sunday, his physical shape shocking doctors. Brought by his adoptive parents, Richard and Cynthia Kelly, ages 56 and 47, the boy was in critical condition, diagnosed with chronic malnourishment, dehydration, acute respiratory distress, shock, hypothermia and hypothyroid.

>Police started looking into the boy’s case after the hospital reported admitting the boy Sunday.

>According to the police, the adoptive parents have been accused of denying food, nourishment and medical care to the boy, while subjecting him “to forced isolation for extended periods of time.” There have been no signs that the boy was handcuffed or chained.

>Neighbors reported seeing the boy mowing the lawn as Richard Kelly watched over him. When told, they could not believe the boy was in fact a teenager.

>However, none of the neighbors suspected there was something wrong going on. Helena police have no record of the family, as neither Cynthia nor Richard Kelly seem to have any criminal record in Alabama.

>Now, both of them are being held at the Shelby County Jail pending $1 million bond each. They were charged with aggravated child abuse, a Class B felony that carries a possible sentence from two to up to 20 years in prison.

>After Donald Trump’s election as president, Pamela Ramsey Taylor, director of the Clay County Development Corp., took to Facebook to comment on the upcoming shift from Obama to Melania Trump, reportedly writing: “It will be so refreshing to have a classy, beautiful, dignified First Lady back in the White House.”
>I’m tired of seeing a Ape in heels
>As of Tuesday morning, an online petition calling for the women’s terminations had garnered more than 100,000 signatures.
>But by then, Taylor had already lost her job: A representative of Clay County Development Corp., a nonprofit funded with state and federal money, said Monday that the board “removed” Taylor from her position as director and appointed Leslie McGlothlin to take her place. McGlothlin did not respond to a request for comment.
>Taylor also told the news station that the public response had become a “hate crime against me,” explaining that she and her children had received death threats. She said she is planning to file a lawsuit against people who have slandered or libeled her, according to the news station.

The victory of Donald Trump for the presidency and the continued Republican control of the House and Senate is only part of the story of the Democratic Party's total demise.

Expected to make modest gains in state legislatures across the country, the Democrats instead lost governorships, lost two state legislative chambers, and now have total control of only five states -- the fewest number in their history.
https://pjmedia.com/trending/2016/11/08/dems-may-flip-a-dozen-state-legislative-chambers/


Perhaps the loudest bell tolling for the death of the Democrats is in Kentucky, where Republicans gained control of the state Senate for the first time in a century. This means that for the first time in history, there is not a single state legislative chamber controlled by Democrats in the old Confederacy.

In the Electoral College, where Republicans took six of the ten biggest prizes for the first time since the Reagan years, Democrats should no longer be considered a national party. They are, at best, a coastal party with a few liberal enclaves -- mostly college towns like Madison, WI, and Austin, TX -- in between.

In the great middle of the country, they have disappeared.

Republicans not only picked up the Kentucky House and the Iowa Senate but unseated the top Democratic leaders in both those chambers, Kentucky Speaker Greg Stumbo and Iowa Senate Majority Leader Mike Gronstal.
http://www.governing.com/topics/politics/gov-mike-gronstal-iowa.html)
Republicans also appeared to have picked up the two seats they needed to take control of the Minnesota Senate, although two races appear to be heading to recounts.

The Kentucky House was the last chamber controlled by Democrats in the South.

>Before most Americans woke up last Wednesday and learned Donald Trump had won the presidential election, hackers linked to Russian intelligence had already launched a sweeping cyberespionage campaign to find out what his victory meant for Vladimir Putin's government.

>Russia has always placed a top priority on vacuuming up whatever intelligence it can about a new American president and their top advisors and plans, to gain strategic advantage, Sean Kanuck, the nation's first National Intelligence Officer for Cyber Issues from 2011 to 2016 told NBC News.

>"And especially after the largest electoral upset in recent American history, it would be all the more important to collect as much information as possible on the new administration and its probable policies," said Kanuck, now an affiliate with the Center for International Security and Cooperation at Stanford University.

> As Team Trump ramps up the transition and then takes over the levers of power, Kanuck said, "I would expect it will only increase against all of his close confidants and advisors."

>The Nov. 9 attack especially targeted "people who are or will be associated with the incoming administration," according to Steven Adair, founder of Volexity, the cyber security firm that first disclosed the campaign.

Most people think you can usually find a better deal when you shop online.

But the price you see can be different than what other people see. The type of computer you use, your online search history, even your zip code have all been used by online retailers to determine what price you pay.

In a study conducted by researchers at Northeastern University in Boston, nine out of 16 online retailers and travel websites tested showed different prices or difference results for the same searches.

“I always assumed all the prices would always be the same,” said Liz Owens.

Owens, a busy mother of two, does a lot of her shopping online and was initially skeptical when she was told the prices she sees are not always what everyone else sees until she participated in a test.

Owens, along with six other people, were provided a list of items and had to look them up on the same websites and at the same time.

For most of the items, everyone’s search resulted in the same price. However, it didn’t happen every time.

When Owens looked up a night’s stay at the Caribe Royale Hotel in Orlando on Travelocity on her laptop, she was shown a price of $132 per night. The same search on Travelocity at the same time on a mobile phone came up with a price of $119.

A spokesperson for the travel website said it sometime does offer lower prices for people who use smartphones.

A similar finding was discovered when participants searched Rosetta Stone’s online language software.

Those in the group who searched on a desktop computer were shown a price of $249 for Levels 1-5 of Mandarin Chinese. Those who used a mobile device were offered the same products for $189 – a $60 difference.

“I think that is shocking,” Owens said when seeing the price difference. “We did the search at the exact same time and I got a much higher price.”

However, it wasn’t always a case of desktop versus mobile.

>UK Interior Minister Amber Rudd signed today the extradition order for Lauri Love, one of the Anonymous hacktivists that have allegedly participated in a series of coordinated cyber-attacks following the suicide of Reddit co-founder and Internet hacktivist Aaron Schwartz.

>According to multiple US indictments, Love, 31, a British-Finnish citizen, had hacked several high-profile targets such as NASA, the FBI, the US Federal Reserve, the US Army, the Environmental Protection Agency, and several more.

>The attacks were part of #OpLastResort, a hacktivist campaign carried out by the Anonymous collective as payback against the US government, which they perceived as guilty for the suicide of Aaron Schwartz, who was facing several hacking charges at the time of his death. Schwartz's family accused the US government of overly aggressive tactics, which they believe forced Schwartz to take his own life.

>Love is only one of the many hackers that have participated in #OpLastResort, but he was one of the most prodigious.

>“When we leave here, you will see any beautiful piece of land, you like it, occupy it, it belongs to you… It is the land that was taken from us by white people by force through genocide,” he said.

http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2016-11-14/trump-advisers-said-to-recommend-mnuchin-for-treasury-secretary

>Former Goldman Sachs Group Inc. partner Steven Mnuchin has been recommended by Donald Trump’s transition team to serve as Treasury secretary, according to two people familiar with the process, and the choice is awaiting the president-elect’s final decision.

>Mnuchin, the campaign’s national finance chairman, has been considered the leading candidate for the job. Trump has displayed a pattern of loyalty to his closest campaign allies in early administration selections, and Mnuchin, 53, had signed on at a time when many from Wall Street stayed away.

>Before joining Trump, Mnuchin rose through the kind of elite institutions the president-elect spent his campaign vilifying. Mnuchin was tapped into Yale’s Skull and Bones secret society, became a Goldman Sachs partner like his father before him, ran a hedge fund, worked with George Soros, funded Hollywood blockbusters and bought a failed bank, IndyMac, with billionaires including John Paulson. They renamed it OneWest, drew protests for foreclosing on U.S. borrowers, and ultimately generated considerable profits, selling the business last year to CIT Group Inc. for $3.4 billion.

>Mnuchin, who co-founded hedge fund Dune Capital Management LP, was seen at Trump Tower on Monday. Asked by reporters why he was there, he said, “I’m here just helping with the transition this week. A lot of work to do.” He had no immediate comment when reached about the Treasury post.
