(WJHL) - Veterans Day is on Tuesday, November 11 and merchants across the nation would like to honor those who have served in the military with FREEbies and discounts.

News Channel 11 has compiled a list of this year's deals. Our service members are in for a treat because many of these promotions will run on multiple days.

Students at Japan's Waseda University are revolutionizing home heating by designing a home heated by actively decaying compost. The home, located on the island of Hokkaido in the town of Taiki-cho, is known as "A Recipe to Live."

The image above depicts the Allie's trenches (red) and the German trenches (blue) at the end of World War I in France. The trenches were aerially photographed during the war and recently each of hundreds of photographs were given GIS points and collated into a map which combined over 300 individual maps.  (Exhibit at Harvard's Pusey Library through Nov. 11).

This is an important opportunity to establish the states' right to confine potential disease vectors.  

Does the state  have the right, and under what guidelines?

 A handful of folks who actually live in and around Clark Ave. (I counted MAYBE 10) showed up last night at the old Gruss Hall across from St. Michael's to attend a Transportation for Livable Communities meeting.  Four council reps are part of this "planning" exercise - including from west to east : Matt Zone, Joe Cimperman, Brian Cummins and Anthony Brancatelli.  Zone and Cimperman were no shows.

Just required because it is a challenge.  A challenge which gets into your gut and overtakes everything.   The best part of being alive!

 If a dog is a police officer as is stated in the recent White House fence jumping event ( don't get me started - ) then what about the chimp issue?

Here is Tommy, a 26 year old chimpanzee, who is confined to this metal cage.

Who would have thought that a deadly chemical is used to fix the xerography on cash register receipts?
