As we begin putting together our broadcast tonight, word from NBC's Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent Andrea Mitchell... traveling with the Secretary of State in Israel... that there may be a plan to try to end the violence in the middle east.  It is just the beginning... but Andrea will report some of the new details that are emerging.  We'll have that story.

Plus, Mark Potter is reporting from the Israeli town of Metula tonight, on the border with Lebanon, where there was more violence today.  NBC's Jim Maceda has the view from Syria.  And NBC's Kerry Sanders reports on the humanitarian effort in Lebanon.
We'll take a look at the heat wave that continues through much of the U.S. and abroad.
And NBC's Dawn Fratangelo tells us about the Orient Queen, the ship that helped rescue so many from Lebanon.
This is another busy news day and we'll have complete coverage of the latest tonight.
We'll see you then.
