[0:01] Tonight's headlines, how soon the war?

[0:04] US ready to declare Iraqi violation.

[0:07] White House signals war not imminent,

[0:09] but CBS learns troops will soon move

[0:12] into position.

[0:13] Iraq vows a fight to the end. Also

[0:16] tonight, hold the phone. The

[0:18] government's ready to help you stop

[0:20] those annoying telemarketing calls. A

[0:23] test that can determine a woman's cancer
