Here's a look at what we're working on for tonight's news.

Ayaan Hirsi Ali is a human rights activist and best selling author with the book, Infidel. She's brought awareness about the violence against women, including female genital mutilation. She's speaking tonight at Northern Michigan University. TV6's Jeni Jewell will be LIVE for her presentation and stepped up security concerning her appearance. That's tonight on your TV6 Early News.

It's called the Hoop House and it's helping put healthy foods in the hands that need it. TV6's Natalie Jovonovich reports from Munising on this project that's drawn together different agencies to make this greenhouse vegetable garden a success. Her story tonight on your TV6 Early News.

What's the difference between the common cold and allergies? That question is answered tonight by Doctor Michael Prevost in your TV6 Medical Minute. Doctor Prevost runs down the common traits between the two and the differences. That's tonight on your TV6 Early News.

The high school student exchange program gives those from abroad and here a new perspective on life. That's the case for a Norway family that's hosting Yoon-Yi Lim from South Korea. TV6's Iron Mountain Kingsford Bureau reporter Aaron Martin introduces us to the 17 year old student and how she's handling life in the U.S.  One of the big differences is in the length of the school day, it's a lot longer in South Korea. Her story UP Close, on your TV6 News Tonight.

Your Entertainment Report tonight is about a popular band that hails from downstate Muskegon, Four Finger Five. TV6's Noel McLaren talks with them about their versatile mix of Rock, Soul, Pop, Blues and Reggae. Their story and where they're playing next, on your TV6 News Tonight.

Gazing at the stars isn't always easy in the U.P. But when the mobile Star Lab comes to a school, it opens a lot of eyes to what's above. We'll show you the mobile planetarium on your TV6 News Tonight.
