There was more violence in Iraq today... after one of the bloodiest weeks in this war so far.  What can Iraq and the U.S. do to stop the violence?  NBC's Tom Aspell has the latest tonight from Baghdad.  NBC's Kevin Corke will take a look at whether this conflict is now a "civil war"... or what would it take to make it a "civil war?"

We are also following the numbers this big holiday shopping weekend.  NBC's Rehema Ellis will have them and explain what they mean for retailers.  Plus, if you're shopping for one of those new flat-panel high-definition television sets, we'll tell you why their prices have dropped so dramatically and give you advice on what to look for.

Plus, the new English language version of Al Jazeera debuted 10 days ago.  But it's not getting a warm welcome here in the U.S.  Why does this channel spark outrage among many Americans?

And CNBC's Jim Goldman tells us why bird watching has become big business.

It's all coming up tonight.  We hope to see you then.
