Kimmy, who has Spinal Muscular Atrophy struggles with being independent because her disease, which weakens her muscles, makes Kimmy rely heavily on her parents, according to KSTP.

To grant Kimmy's wish, architects at Rehkamp Larson Architects Inc. are building a playhouse for Kimmy in her front yard where she can play independently without Mom and Dad's help. What name did Kimmy call her playhouse? Kimmy's Castle.

Jean Rehkamp-Larson, an architect of the company, said they typically create houses and do renovations, but will take on creating Kimmy's Castle. Amanda Kay, another architect at the company, said that it's a a great opportunity. "Hearing her story, how could you say no? she said.

Kimmy needs back growing rod surgery every six months, her mother Dian Mullis said told KSTP. Kimmy has a high-tech chair that can take her outside to play, but once she is outside, she can't do much since something has to be at Kimmy's height for her to use it, according to KSTP.

Ultimately, what Kimmy wants is the freedom to play without her parents' help. "I want [the playhouse] to be independent so I can go in there and do whatever I want," she said.

Keir Simmons reports from London that a Rochester, New York, man Ron Piccirillo discovered what seems to be an ape's face and a lion head in the painting when he turned it on its side. The art historian said he was reading from da Vinci's notebooks, and noticed that da Vinci referenced these animals, according to MSNBC.

"I call it an accidental discovery," Piccirillo said. He told MSNBC that he was confused as to why no one else had noticed the images in the painting before.

In London, art historian Martin Kemp sees things differently. "There is deeper meaning in his paintings but there are not kind of hidden objects, not some kind of visual puzzle," he said.

The "Mona Lisa" is on display at the Louvre in Paris and it is up to those who see it up close to decide if it has hidden images in it, or to let the painting remain a mystery.

Regardless, Florence Tsang is $154 million richer and was also awarded a property worth $33 million as well as another property in London worth $4 million, according to CNN.

The couple was married for eight years before they got divorced.

CNN reported that Tsang had gotten pregnant four years ago and her then-husband Samathur Li Kin-kan wanted her to get an abortion, but Tsang refused.

Since Tsang is in custody of their 3-year-old daughter, she was awarded millions to take care of her and raise her, CNN editorial producer Nadia Bilchik said.

Kin-kan tried to hide assets of his father, who Bikchick called a "huge property mogul in Hong Kong," and Tsang was awarded 55 percent less of what she asked for of her ex-husband.

However, Tsang showed news cameras a smiling face as she walked out of the court room that Thursday. CNN reported that the judge told Tsang that "she should live in the manner to which she has become accustomed."

The boy who remains anonymous, is posed as a threat to the school because they think he could have sex with another student and transmit the virus to someone else.

In a statement, the school said, "The school knows that no child can be assumed to make responsible decisions which affect the well-being of others." It went on to say, "The school believes it has made the correct assessment of the risks of transmission of HIV in this setting, and has not violated the law..." according to CNN

The school says it doesn't presume anything, however, CNN reports that the school is presuming the boy will have sex, the sex will be unprotected, and he will pass the virus along. But the boy takes drugs to keep the virus in check and is 95 percent effective, so it is likely he would not even transmit the virus to another student.

"The Americans With Disabilities Act barred discrimination based on HIV status," CNN reported. And by denying this student access, the school is being sued by the AIDS Law Project of Pennsylvania on behalf of the student.

The boy, whose face was not showed on camera, said how this situation has caused him emotional distress. "I feel that no other teenager should go through this, being denied just because they have HIV," he told CNN.

John Byro, 29, was supposed to leave Hennepin County Medical Center this week, but his conditions worsened, forcing him to stay longer, making his sister stay longer also, Kare 11 reporter Jay Olstad said.

"The staff has been joking about changing my address to his room," said Byro, who has stayed at the hospital for the past 37 days alongside her brother.

John was supposed to be transferred from HCMC to Bethesda Hospital in St. Paul to begin his long-term rehab but then things took a turn for the worse, Kare 11 said.

Fluid built up in his brain and he was rushed into surgery. Kare 11 reported that all of his progress was "wiped away." "And after 48 hours of not moving or opening his eyes, you start to think really, really bad things," Byro said.

However, Kare 11 reported that John opened his eyes this morning and his sister hopes that John will pull through and also that the person who hit John will come forward.

Byro's family is planning a benefit Friday Dec. 9 in hopes of raising money to pay for John's medical costs as well as to increase the $5000 cash reward for information leading to an arrest, Olstad reported.

Blasting from the speakers, Raghav Mehta, the Daily reporter, heard blue-haired beauty Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream," which sent "patrons into a drunken frenzy," he said.

Wanting to know what these patrons thought of what Mehta called the "[epitomy] of a 'campus bar," he started interviewing.

"There are a lot of bros here, but the drinks are so cheap," psychology major Alaina Klocke said, her voice nearly being drowned by the bar's chatter.

Klocke came to the Library with her friend, Erica Tasto who is a journalism student. "It's better than going to Blarney, and Burrito Loco is always a bust," Tasto, a junior at the University, said.

Mehta is not surprised by what he sees: college students cutting back and taking a break from the wear-and-tear of the college grind. He claims that the drinks are in a college student's budget and is a popular place to come because of the close proximity to student housing.

"It was almost 1 a.m. when another wave of patrons entered, making an already dense crowd even more difficult to maneuver," Mehta wrote. As he makes his way to the second level of the bar, he notices Jennifer Maes, a Political Science junior, who doesn't seem happy to be at the Library.

Maes, lost in the crowd of what Mehta calls "clean-cut boozehounds," can't find the friend she came to the bar to meet, one reason why she doesn't like to come to the Library.

"There are too many bros here ... " she said. "I get why people come here, but I can't stand it."

First up was Caroline Janson, a chemical engineering student who transferred to the University from Sweden. Rocking a form-fitting pencil skirt and tank top, she decided that outfit wasn't enough. She paired it with a flannel shirt to complete her ensemble but added those extra touches like leather lace-ups and glasses (even if she needs them to see) to make the outfit come full circle.

Next is Lacy Braun, a public relations major who wore a wide-legged red pant with a tucked in white blouse. She pairs the outfit with black pumps and a simple white clutch to complete her business-casual outfit.

Cho Hung, an engineering student, dressed in high-wasted royal blue silk pants. Think the magic genie from Aladdin, but trendier. She pairs it with a tan 3/4-length shirt and flat sandals to give her outfit a classy and effortless look.

Last but not least is Chloe Ahlf, an apparel design major, who obviously knows how to put an outfit together. She paired a feminine and well-fitted flannel shirt with ripped stockings. She wore "Daisy Dukes" and moccasins to complete the look, giving off a Bohemian feel that is always applauded.

Well, that was the intention of the Occupy Wall Street protestors. They wanted to stage a 24-hour circle of drums in front of the mayor's town house, but police officers blocked the protestors at every corner, according to The New York Times.

"In effect, the police have created a no-First Amendment zone on 79th (where the Mayor's house resides) Street," civil liberties lawyer Norman Siegel said.

The protestors who did a "Millionares March" on Oct. 11, bypassed the mayor's house, but was then chosen to protest in front of after they were forced out of Zuccotti Park according to The New York Times.

In response to being kicked out of the park by police early Tuesday morning, the protestors then decided to move their march elsewhere.

"[Bloomberg] sent the N.Y.P.D. to visit us the other day at 1 a.m., so now we are visiting him," Aaron Black, 38, said of the mayor to The New York Times. Black is a photographer who helped organized the event, according to The New York Times. "If he's in town, he should come downstairs to talk with us."

"If you were to look up the word singer in the dictionary you'd see [Etta James and Aretha Franklin]. Not mine," she said flashing her gold rings on her manicured fingers.

Although Adele's music focuses on heartbreak, this part of Adele's life doesn't consume her and define her as a person. Cosmo reported that Adele is a breath of fresh air because she talks fast, laughs loudly, and swears more than some rappers.

After graduating from high school, Adele planned on attending college and thought she would eventually work for a record label to discover talent she told Cosmo. While planning her 18th birthday, Adele heard from a record label hoping to meet with her.

Thinking it was a joke, Adele soon realized this man who called her worked for XL Recordings, and soon after she signed with the label. Feeling bad telling the story she said, "It was really that easy," she told Cosmo.

Adele then met a boy and starting dated him, but confessed that he cheated on her. "I was gutted," she said as she pounded a fist over her heart, according to Cosmo. But this relationship gave her inspiration in her album titled, "19."

The Grammy-award-winner then started dating another guy during a 6-month break from her music career. She claimed that the relationship was more severe than the first, but ended in heartbreak. "I'm fine without him," she said, "but I don't want to be without him and I still miss him."

Before leaving to meet with her manager, she reached the door and exclaimed, "God! If I find that happiness, what will I write about?" she joked. But then reassuringly said, "No, no. I really want my next album to be happy and fun."

*Can't get the interview on Cosmo's website but I linked the site anyway.

An Associated Press reporter who was at the scene said hundreds of protestors made their way back to the square come night fall, waving the red, white and black Egyptian flags chanting "Allahu Akbar," (God is the greatest) the Sun-Times reported.

"We're not going anywhere," protester Mohammad Radwan told the Sun-Times. "The mood is good now and people are chanting again."

Even after the former leader Hosni Mubarak was ousted, the Egyptian people are still angry because of the "slow pace of reforms and apparent attempts by the ruling generals to retain power over a future civilian government," the Sun-Times wrote.

"We have a single demand: The [Field Marshal Hussein Tantawi] must step down and be replaced by a civilian council," protester Ahmed Hani said of Mubarak's longtime defense minister.

Graffiti that read, "The marshal is Mubarak's dog," was scribbled in the square, the Sun-Times wrote.

The beating of protesters by troops and police left 676 injured and one dead, according to the Sun-Times.

The scene on Sunday was reported as brutal by a 21-year-old university student. Yahya el-Sawi said, "I did not support the sit-in at the beginning, but when I saw this ... I had to come back to get my brothers."

National Geographic stated how the world has about five years to make these changes, but some don't think this challenge can be met. Richard Jones, deputy executive director of the IEA and a former U.S. diplomat, said, "We've been trying to warn our member countries, [but] it's getting harder and harder to meet this target."

The Wall Street Journal also reported that this change is unlikely since there has been a decrease in the use of low-carbon nuclear power and an increase in the use of fossil fuels, like coal, which produces the greenhouse gas (CO2), and which scientists believe plays a key role in climate change.

Of the infrastructure already built -- power plants, buildings, factories -- and of the infrastructure in the process of being built, 80 percent of CO2 is emitted in the air, National Geographic reported. From 2017 on, all buildings would have to produce no emissions to keep the target below a 3.6 degree increase.

"Coal was the biggest source of emissions growth in 2010, primarily driven by use in China and India," the IEA report said. China and India have not made a lasting commitment to curb emission output, the Wall Street Journal reported.

To achieve the goal of maintaining the climate target, more than half of the energy sources created must be made from renewable energy like solar and wind, the IEA predicts. However, this would come with a steep price tag: National Geographic reported that subsidies would be required and could reach $250 billion per year by 2035. This is four times today's level.

Richard Newell, an energy economist at Duke University and former director of the U.S. Energy Information Administration, thinks meeting climate target will be a difficult task to accomplish. "Unless something significant changes about our energy technologies, markets, and policies," he said, "current trends lead to an energy future that looks very much like the present. Just bigger-much bigger."

The activists paid the dog traders about 80,000 yuan, or $15,500, to ensure the animal's safe release, according to the Wall Street Journal.

In Vietnam, roasted or stewed dog meat is a delicacy, and the streets of Hanoi are full of restaurants that offer this dish, the Wall Street Journal reported. According to police, traffickers in Thailand acquire stray dogs and sell them for $33 each in Vietnam, the Huffington Post reported.

Governor of the Nakhon Phanom province Rerngsak Mahavinitchaimontree, 58, organized a string of checkpoints with local police and broke up a network of smugglers in August saving 1,800 dogs, according to the Wall Street Journal.

"We raise dogs to obey us, not for food," Mahavinitchaimontree said, "We must treat them well."

Since the trafficker bust in August, animal-rights campaigners have raised about 20.7 million baht, or $690,000, to help keep the dogs at a special refuge, the Wall Street Journal reported.

Although many dogs that were intended for food have been rescued, some see no harm in eating dog meat. Dao Van Bien, a 66-year-old Hanoi man, believes that his customs should be respected and that others should not be so close-minded. "Each county has its own culture and here we eat dog," he said.

However, the Independent School District 834 Board of Stillwater faces cuts up to $10 million from the budget after voters rejected two levies and a bond issue, according to the Stillwater Gazette.

Stillwater Superintendent Corey Lunn told the Star Tribune that the people were clear with their message. "As a school district we must find ways to do more with less, become more efficient, and change the way we do business," he said.

The first levy, which proposed to revoke the district's current $965 per pupil per year for $1,465 failed by 52 percent. The "no" votes totaled 7,030 against the 6,454 "yes" votes, according the the Stillwater Gazette.

The levy that requested new technology to provide students with learning aids like iPads or online textbooks received 53 percent of the "no" vote, according to the Star Tribune. This levy would have provided the district $982,300 a year for seven years, the Star Tribune reported.

The bond that amounted to $18.3 million, which would have paid to upgrade facilities failed by a 52 percent margin to a 48 percent margin, according to the Stillwater Gazette.

"We're going to do our best to maintain quality education, but there's no doubt things will have to look vastly different," Lunn told the Stillwater Gazette.

The Star Tribune reported that the team would pay around $225 million (or less) and the rest would be paid through a National Football League loan, where visiting teams and the sale of personal seat licenses would cover the cost of the $1.1 billion project, according to Metropolitan Sports Facilities Commission Chairman Ted Mondale.

Gov. Mark Dayton and legislatures have yet to approve the funding plan where taxpayers would provide $650 million or roughly 60 percent of the project, while the Vikings' contribution would amount to about 37 percent, according to state calculations referenced in the Star Tribune.

Though some politicians and business leaders prefer a downtown Minneapolis location, Wilf is committed to the Arden Hills location. "Any other location besides Arden Hills wouldn't justify near that level of commitment," he told the Associated Press.

If a deal is not reached soon, Minnesota is in jeopardy of losing its football team to Los Angeles, who the Associated Press calls "football-hungry."

A Sports Illustrated study this year of NFL finance with the help of private wealth assessment company concluded that the $1.1 billion stadium-building project would be the third most expensive of the 11 NFL stadiums completed in the past decade, the Star Tribune reported.

Dayton told the Star Tribune that he has not pressed the NFL or or the Vikings about their shares: "Where the Wilfs obtain their financing, whether it's from a lending institution or their own wherewithal or the league -- it's really their business."

A determined Wilf said, " ... It's not a matter of when, but how we do it. I think as we work toward getting this resolved, everyone will focus on how it gets done and not if," according to the Associated Press.
