DID YOU KNOW?
No one can drown in the Dead Sea. It is 25 percent salt, which makes the water very heavy.

TONIGHT ON THE CBS EVENING NEWS
Here’s an early look at what we are working on for tonight’s broadcast of The CBS Evening News from Early Show Anchor Maggie Rodriquez, in for Anchor and Managing Editor, Katie Couric
Good afternoon, everyone. This is Maggie Rodriguez filling in for Katie.
There’s quite a showdown developing over Barack Obama’s vacant Senate seat. Embattled Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich defied Senate leaders today and appointed former Illinois Attorney General Roland Burris to the seat. Blagojevich said the law requires him to make the appointment, but Senate Democrats say they won’t let Burris serve. Cynthia Bowers reports on the dramatic announcement in Chicago.
So what happens next? Senior Political Correspondent Jeff Greenfield shares his analysis.
Turning to the Middle East, new reports indicate Israel is considering a 48-hour ceasefire in Gaza under the condition that Hamas stops launching its missiles into Israel. But as Mark Phillips reports, there’s a very real possibility that Israel will send in ground troops as part of a full-scale invasion.
Back in the U.S., home prices fell in October by a record 18 percent compared to the previous year. As Kelly Wallace reports, the decline was steepest in the Sun Belt but was felt heavily nationwide.
Finally tonight, as 2008 winds down, we'll take a look back at some of the most fascinating lives that drew to a close over the past year.
I hope you'll join us tonight, Maggie

Along with the top stories, we are currently working on the following segments:
KOEPPEN PORTION CONTROL- You can eat all the cookies, candy and junk food you want but it's all a matter of portion control according to nutritionist James Painter. He did a documentary called “Portion Size Me” where he put two of his students on a thirty day fast food diet and found that it was more about portion size than about what you eat. Susan Koeppen takes his theory out for a test by inviting two groups of people in for an all you can eat sundae-bar. The only difference was the size of the spoons, bowls, and scoops each group got. Both said they were full but the group with the larger bowls went back repeatedly while the group with the smaller bowls and spoons took longer to eat and did not take as much. We’ll show you New Year’s Eve morning that it's not what you eat, but how much.
