This Louisiana Monastery Hides A Massive 732-Square-Foot Painting Of The Last Supper

A single painting of the Last Supper covers about 732 square feet of church wall. A Benedictine monk painted it. That is a lot of wall, and a lot of patience. I love that this kind of art sits in a quiet corner of Louisiana. It is not in a big city museum.

Military veterans to be honored throughout St. Tammany

America's military veterans will be honored throughout St. Tammany Parish with a variety of events planned around Veterans Day, which always falls on Nov. 11. The holiday originated as Armistice Day, proclaimed by President Woodrow Wilson in 1919 to mark the one-year anniversary of the end of World War I, which ceased on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918. It was renamed Veterans Day in 1954 following World War II and the Korean War when President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed legislation changing the name to honor American veterans of all wars.
