MISSION, Kan. — An extremely rare brain-eating amoeba has killed a nine-year-old girl from Johnson County.

Hally Yust, 9, from Spring Hill was an avid skier and died two days ago on Wednesday.

NASHVILLE, Tenn.—In a sign of the far-reaching impact of the U.S. immigration crisis and its political fallout, Nebraska’s governor says 200 children who entered the country illegally were sent to his state this week without warning and that federal officials are refusing to identify them or their locations.

New Yorkers enjoying the sunny weather in Brighton Beach and Coney Island on Saturday got a nasty airborne surprise — a plane towing a banner bearing a swastika-themed message.

The streamer said in symbols that a swastika plus peace equals love. Then it read, in all capital letters, “Proswastika.”

Last Tuesday President Obama got off the helicopter in front of The White House – carrying a baby piglet under each arm.

A drone hybridized with an amphibious hovercraft has been presented at the Innoprom-2014 technology exhibition in Russia’s Yekaterinburg. This unique UAV doesn’t need an airfield to launch, so the only alternative is a helicopter.

At least 80 percent of all audio calls are gathered and stored by the NSA, whistleblower William Binney has revealed. The former code-breaker says the spy agency’s ultimate aim is no less than total population control.
