You mentioned that journey from havana to santiago de cuba. We made the drive ourselves. Normally a 12hour drive. It took us more than 20 hours. Thats because of the crowds of route, hoping to catch what was just a quick glimpse.

Military and state police shutting down the road so cubans could fill in by the thousands. Holding flags and images, waiting for Fidel Castros remains to pass by. The procession cruising by the onlookers for some a rush of emotions. I asked this woman why the tears. Because i loved him. He was like a father figure, she told me.

The National Park service believes the fire was caused by humans but is not yet sure if it was intentionally set. Ri we tend to associate a lot of those wildfires with california, but they can impact a lot of areas. Meanwhile, back in our area, what kind of night are we looking at .

Temperatures already back to the west, in the 30s. 36, thurmont. 39 in winchester. 52 in quantico. Temperatures to the west of the mountains have been cooler today because of the clouds and because of downsloping winds along the blue ridge. The winds come down, the blue thats where we are now. Nothing on the radar, but look at the wider view. The other thing the mountains do, they keep the clouds back to the west, too. The air moves over the mountains and also warms and dries the air, and that helps to keep us cloud free. So all of these clouds back to the west, thats why they have been so cool, and the cooler air will continue to move in. Tomorrow, waking up to temperatures around 37 degrees around 7 00 a.

Neighbors near a National Harbor are talking about their growing concerns about traffic that the new mgm casino will bring which when it opens next week. Its not the kind of traffic you might expect. Tracee wilkins explains why it residents cant touch this water because the potomac and broad creek have a history of sewage overrun. What we wanted was for them to step up the plate and admit they couldnt handle the sewage and correct the problem. For years, people along the broad creek basin have also been living with sewage overflows whenever theres a hard rain. The problem is so pad the wssc has prohibited new development. The national was approved because they expected to have the sewer system upgraded by the beginning of the sewer system, but now the improvements have been pushed back to 2020. Coming up, why people who live here are concerned that the new mgm casino could add to their problems. It is a post election tradition that happens every four years. The Campaign Managers of both leading parties get together. This year, the discussion held at harfered university, turned into a nasty shouting match. Including a nasty exchange between Hillary Clintons campaign director, Jennifer Paul marey, and kellyanne conway. I would rather lose than win the way you guys did. No, you wouldnt. Do you think i ran a campaign where White Supremacists had a platform . It did. Im more proud of Hillary Clintons altright speech because she stood up. You think you could just have a message for the working class voters. How about its hillary clinton, she doesnt connect with people . One thing the campaigns did agree on during the discussion is their resentment of the media coverage. Trumps team argue the media were proclinton. The clinton team complained far email than trumps business dealings. Trumps choice for defense secretary means for our troops and the country. Hans nichols has been reporting on the nomination of james mattis. Hans, hes been called mad dog on one hand. The warrior monk on the other. How do you square not only those nicknames but the reverence some have for mattis, versus this incident in afghanistan, what, some 15 years ago . Well, on the two nicknames, he prefers warrior monk. A man married own tee to the marine corps, traveled with some 6,000 volumes to these various postings. In some ways, a lot of the love, the adoration his marines have for him is because he gives these hot comments and he has a great battlefield bravado about him. Sound bites like be nice, be polite, but be prepared to kill 15 years ago . So, this is an algaze, and its just an allegation that never merited a formal investigation by the military. Here are the facts of the allegation or i shouldnt say facts. Here is the outline of the allegation by a former green beret who wrote a 2011 New York Times best seller and the incident was included in there. He says that when green beret and Army Special Forces came under fire in afghanistan, it was friendly fire, that was determined later. They didnt know it at he says that during that incident, they put out a call for help for distress signals that u. S. Troops were down. Mattis was the closest commander. He was about 45 minutes away on helicopter. Mattis did not respond to that request for help because he didnt know the situation there was. The help ended up coming about three hours away from an air force base that came from three hours away. Mattis has never formally responded to these charges. Charges, and when we reached out to him as well as the author of the book, mattis has never given his version of the events. It is an allegation thats out there. And i suspect hell come under increased scrutiny in this potential interesting twopart confirmation process because he has normal confirmation and also speaking of the confirmation process. This is supposed to be a civilian post. What is it going to take for him to be confirmed . First off, the change of the 1947 law. It w in the senate. Its filibusterable there. And the house will be a straight vote. Then a normal straight up or down 50vote confirmation hearing, confirmation vote in the senate. Hans nichols, thank you very much, reporting from the pentagon.

If you are looking to buy a big ticket item for the holidays, you probably have been tempted by those zero interest credit card offers. Well talk to consumer reporter susan hogan about why you might want to read the fine print. Middle of class. Theres a new reason some students a ritual wiggle room can help them concentration a little better in class. Thats what some texas teachers are saying. About their new standup desks for fifth graders. Jane reports. This year. I think its awesome. When you stand up, its easier for your brain to think. And better for your posture. Theyre the first students in the district to get a foothold on the new desks. Some of them stand all day. Some move their chairs in and out. They all have a fidget bar. And these kids say these standup desks and the ability to fidget a little helps their concentration. I can make a bunch of noise by tapping my foot on the ground in the other classrooms. If i swing my foot on the fidget bar, it makes no noise and keeps me active. Ms. Adams first heard of the standup approach to learning from some colleagues. She didnt sit on the idea too long before deciding to purchase the 25 new desks. If you sit all day, its difficult to stay focused and concentrate. Research shows that, too, if theyre moving, the brain is community, matched by the district, she got a classroom full of standup desks by the start of the school year. With a front row seat or a stand up to sedgeication, her students rated a success. Think it would be nice for the other classrooms to have them. I feel like it would be nice for the other kids to have them. And remember the health benefits. Some studies show standing lowers your risk of weight gain and obesity, heart disease, and maybe lower blood sugar reduce your back pain. Well, it sounds great. No interest for years. If youre not careful, the holiday credit card deals can put you into a lot of debt. Susan hogan has the four things you need to know to stay out of trouble.

The chairs were sold online from january of 2013 through this past august. Tempted by the zero percent offers on the credit cards . If you are, beware. Costing you a whole lot more. Consumer reporter susan hogan joins us with four things you need to know to avoid big debt. You have probably noticed a huge increase in credit card offers in your mailbox. Well, retailers are pulling out all the stops to get you to sign up for their credit cards by offering those zero per isnt interest deals but beware of the trap. According to the National Consumer law center, retailers will often entice you to buy me with offers of Deferred Interest financing on major big ticket items. Understand the language. Deferred interest does not mean no interest. Think of it like a ticking time bomb for when the Promotional Period is over. If you still have a balance on the card, youre going to get hit with a huge bill. New purchases, make sure you read the fine print with this. Will the new purchases be offer. And dont miss a payment ever. Make a late payment and the Promotional Period may end or you may get hit with retroactive finance charges back to the purchase date for the entire purchase price. Its as if the zero Interest Rate promotion you signed up for never twisted. On the flip side, the overwhelming number of consumers who use these promotions complete them on time and the majority of people are pretty happy with t great insight. Thank you, susan. You know, the experts predicted Virtual Reality devices would be hot sellers for the holidays, but as brian reports, its a bit of a bust so far. Wow. Virtual reality is supposed to be the next big thing. It is actually mind blowing if you have never tried it before. But while immersive 3d goggles right now are not quite mainstream enough for most consumers, but they are something gamers would like to have. Playstation vr is currently the only Virtual Reality thats part of a gaming console. Its in one package, around 500. Oculus rift head sets are expensive, 600 to 800 just for the goggles and require a gaming pc. Both of those are not selling at the levels of their social buzz. There are cheaper options with big limitations. The google cardboard, which is pretty rudimentary. You can even make it at home. Other headsets require specialized phones. A lot of companies are working on standalone vr sets. Right now, this is the first time were really seeing consumer devices.
