More Wind, Snow And Bitter Cold Coming:

Feeling chilly this week? There’s more bitter cold on the way, especially for people living in the northern parts of the United States.

Trump’s Books Offer Clues On How He’ll Lead From White House:

Donald Trump developed an admiration for brevity in communication long before he famously took to Twitter during the 2016 presidential campaign.

Key members of his staff were able to distill large amounts of information, Trump once wrote, “and can explain something to me with a minimum of words.”
“Sometimes ten words or less,” he added.
“Considering how much I have to do every day, I appreciate this,” the real estate magnet turned politician wrote in the 2009 book, “Think Like A Champion.”

Separated Twins Move To Rehab After Emotional Hospital Farewell:

Jadon and Anias McDonald, the twins born joined at the head whose separation surgery captivated millions around the world, were gently placed in a red wagon.

They lay side by side, Anias in a blue jumpsuit and Jadon in a gray one. They wore specially fitted white helmets, but there was no evidence of the tubes, IVs or monitors that have been their lifelines since surgery.
Outside the room, more than 30 doctors, nurses and staff at the Children’s Hospital at Montefiore Medical Center lined the hallway. A red carpet was rolled out for the boys.

Did Donald Trump Need An Apology From Mitt Romney?:

As President-elect Donald Trump considered Mitt Romney for secretary of state, Trump wanted one thing Romney wouldn’t give him: an apology.

Trump was willing to move past Romney’s bitter campaign-trail criticism of him.

But top aides, including Kellyanne Conway and Steve Bannon, saw Romney’s attacks as unforgivable, according to three sources close to Romney, two of whom are familiar with Trump’s transition process.
