TONIGHT, SARAH PALIN FUELS UP THE TEA PARTY EXPRESS FOR A CROSS COUNTRY ROAD TOUR. >> YOU ARE WINNING, JOE SIX PACK! >> Couric: AND KEN BUcK. HE'S LOOKING TO RIDE THE TEA PARTY WAVE TO VICTORY IN COLORADO. I'M KATIE COURIC. ALSO TONIGHT, BREACH OF PRIVACY. AN APP MISHAP TURNS FACEBOOK INTO AN OPEN BOOK. A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH. THE NEW RIGHT WAY TO PERFORM C.P.R. AND HE'S BEEN STEVE HARTMAN'S HUMAN G.P.S. NOW HE'S BACK ON TERRA FIR MA AND IT'S TIME TO HEAR HIS STORY. FROM CBS NEWS WORLD HEADQUARTERS IN NEW YORK, THIS IS THE "CBS EVENING NEWS" WITH KATIE COURIC. >> Couric: GOOD EVENING, EVERYONE. IT'S BEEN ONE OF THE DRIVING FORCES OF CAMPAIGN 2010, AND TODAY THE TEA PARTY MOVEMENT BEGAN A FINAL DRIVE TO GET THE CANDIDATES IT SUPPORTS ELECTED ON NOVEMBER 2. THE TEA PARTY EXPRESS IS TRAVELING CROSS COUNTRY IN THE FINAL TWO WEEKS BEFORE THE ELECTION WITH RALLIES IN 30 CITIES, FROM NEVADA TO NEW HAMPSHIRE. FIRST STOP, THEY CALL IT THE BIGGEST LI CITY IN THE WORLD, RENO. BEN TRACY IS THERE. BEN, IT WAS THE BIGGEST SHOW IN TOWN TODAY. >> Reporter: IT SURE WAS, KATIE. AND IT'S NOT BY CHANCE THEY STARTED HERE IN NEVADA. THIS IS, OF COURSE, THE HOME STATE OF SENATE MAJORITY LEADER HARRY REID AND HE IS THE NUMBER- ONE TARGET OF THE TEA PARTY EXPRESS. SO THEY BROUGHT OUT ONE OF THEIR BIGGEST NAMES TODAY TO FIRE UP THE TROOPS. >> YOU ARE WINNING, JOE SIX CK! >> Reporter: SHE'S THE ONE GUEST EVERYONE WANTS AT THEIR TEA PARTY. >> WE, THE LITTLE GUY, THE OVERTAXED, THE OVERREGULATED, OVERBURDENED, HAD IT UP TO HERE, MA GRIZZLIES AND LIBERTY LOVING AMERICANS. >> Reporter: SARAH PALIN REVVED UP A CROWD ALREADY FED UP WITH WASHINGTON. >> I GUESS THE ARROGANCE THAT THEY KNOW BETTER THAN WE DO IS WHAT REALLY HAS US FIRED UP. >> Reporter: 18% OF AMERICANS CONSIDER THEMSELVES TEA PARTY SUPPORTERS. THEY WANT TO DRASTICALLY SMALLER FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. SOME WANT TO PHASE OUTOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICARE AND REPEAL HEALTH CARE REFORM. DO YOU BLAME REPUBLICANS AS WELL AS DEMOCRATS? >> NO QUESTION. NO QUESTION. REPUBLICANS ARE JUST AS GUILTY AS DEMOCRATS IN THAT AND THAT'S WHY YOU SEE THE TEA PARTY MOVEMENT. >> Reporter: BUT ONE ESTIMATE, TEA PARTY GROUPS ARE NOW BACKING 138 CANDATES-- ALL REPUBLICANS-- IN HOUSE AND SENATE RACES. SACRAMENTO-BASED TEA PARTY EXPRESS HAS SPENT $8.1 MILLION IN ADDITION TO SHARRON ANGLE HERE IN NEVADA, THEY'RE SUPPORTING SENATE CANDIDATES JOE MILLER IN ALASKA, RAND PAUL IN KENTUCKY AND CHRISTINE O'DONNELL IN DELAWARE. >> I WANT TO THANK THE TEA PARTY EXPRESS. >> Reporter: BUT SOME REPUBLICANS FEAR THEY ARE WILD CARDS WHO COULD END UP LOSING RACES ONCE CONSIDERED EASY WINS. JUST TODAY, THIS CELL PHONE VIDEO SURFACED OF SHARRON ANGLE GIVING THIS ODD ANSWER TO A GROUP OF HISPANIC STUDENTS. >> SOME OF YOU LOOK A LITTLE MORE ASIAN TO ME. >> Reporter ND JOE MILLER'S PRIVATE SECURITY GUARDS HANDCUFFED A LOCAL REPORTER WHO TRIED TO INTERVIEW THE CANDIDATE. >> SO THIS IS OUR HOME FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS. >> Reporter: BUT SAL RUSSO WHO RUNS TEA PARTY EXPRESS SAYS THE MOVEMENT HAS ALREADY WON BY CHANGING THE NATIONAL CONVERSATION FROM BAILOUTS TO BELT TIGHTENING. >> I WOULD DECLARE VICTORY TODAY IN THE SENSE THAT WE NOW HAVE RTS-- LIBERALS ANDTH POLITICAL CONSERVATIVES-- ADDRESSING THE PHYSICAL ISSUES. >> Reporter: AS FOR THE BUS TOUR, IT HEADS TO ELKO, NEVADA, THEN LAS VEGAS AS THEY CONTINUE TO CAMPAIGN AGAINST SENATOR REID HERE IN THIS STATE. KATIE? >> Couric: BEN, THE TEA PARTY EXPRESS IS JUST ONE OF 400 OR SO TEA PARTY GROUPS ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY. WHERE DOES IT FIT IN IN TERMS OF THE LARGER MOVEMENT? >> Reporter: THAT'S RIGHT, KATIE. THERE'S A LOT OF GROUPS ACROSS THE COUNTR BUT THE EXPRESS IS ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL BECAUSE THEY'VE RAISED A TON OF MONEY AND HAVE FOCUSED IT ON A FEW SELECT RACES ACROSS THE COUNTRY. THAT'S EARNED THEM SOME ENEMIES WITHIN THE LARGER TEA PARTY MOVEMENT. SOME VIEW THEM AS A BUNCH OF REPUBLICAN CONSULTANTS IN CALIFORNIA WHO ARE HAND PICKING THESE CANDIDATES AND THAT'S THE SAME BEEF SOME FOLKS IN THE TEA PARTY HAVE THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AS A WHOLE. >> Couric: BEN TRACY IN RENO, NEVADA, THANK YOU. ELECTION DAY IS 15 DAYS AWAY BUT EARLY IN-PERSON VOTING IS ALREADY UNDER WAY IN 13 STATES AS WELL AS THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BY TOMORROW ABSENTEE BALLOTS FOR MAIL- VOTING WILL BE AVAILABLE IN EVERY STATE. TWO YEARS AGO, ONE OUT OF THREE VOTES WAS CAST BEFORE ELECTION DAY. THIS YEAR IN THE BATTLE FOR CONGRESS, WE'RE FOLLOWING DOZENS OF CRITICAL CONTESTS THAT WILL DECIDE WHICH PARTY CONTROLS WHICH HOUSE. IN THE HOUSE, THE REPUBLICANS NEED TO HOLD ON TO THEIR CURRENT SEATS AND PICK UP 39 NOW HELD BY DEMOCRATS AND THEY HERE IN STRIKING DISTANCE OF DOING THAT. MEANWHILE, IN THE SENATE THE G.O.P. NEEDS TO HOLD WHAT IT HAS AND CAPTURE TEN DEMOCRATIC SEATS. OUR ENTHE ELECTION TEAM RATES FOUR OF THOSE SEATS AS TOSS-UPS, INCLUDING THE COLORADO SEAT HELD BY MICHAEL BENNETT. HE WAS APPOINTED LAST YEAR WHEN KEN SALAZAR BECAME SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR. BUT A RECENT McCLATCHY POLL SHOWS BENNETT TRAILING TEA PARTY-BACKED KEN BUCK BY EIGHT POINTS. JEFF GREENFIELD REPORTS COLORADO THIS YEAR REFLECTS THE MOOD OF THE NATION. >> Reporter: COLORADO WAS BORN IN THE SEARCH FOR GOLD AND SILVER, BUT IN RECENT YEARS, DEMOCRATS HAVE HIT PAY DIRT PROSPECTING FOR VOTES. OBAMA WON HERE HANDILY JUST TWO YEARS AGO. >> ARE YOU PREPARED TO VOTE FOR THE REPUBLICAN TEAM? >> Reporter: BUT THIS YEAR THE DECRATS HOLD ON A U.S. SENATE SEAT IS IN REAL JEOPARDY. WHY? BECAUSE IT TURNS OUT ALL POLITICS IS NOT LOCAL. >> THE DISLIKE OF CONGRESS, THE UNHAPPINESS WITH A LOT OF LEGISLATION, BEING DISAPPOINTED ECONOMY. THAT'S WHAT'S FRAMING THIS ELECTION. >> Reporter: COLORADO IS PART OF A BROAD NATIONAL PATTERN, AN INSURGENT REPUBLICAN SEEKING TO TIE HIS OPPONENT TO WASHINGTON. A DEMOCRAT SEEKING INDEPDENT VOTES BY ARGUING HIS OPPONENT IS TOO FAR OUT OF THE MAINSTREAM. >> I CERTAINLY FIT THE MOLD OF A DIFFERENT KIND OF CANDIDATE FOR THE U.S. SENATE. Reporr: 51-YEAR-OLD KEN BUCK IS A CAREER PROSECUTOR WHOSE TEA PARTY CAMPAIGN DEFEATED A FAR BETTER-KNOWN REPUBLICAN. HE IS STAUNCHLY CONSERVATIVE ON ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL ISSUES AND TELLS SUPPORTERS HE DOES NOT INTEND TO COMPRO WITH THE WHITE HOUSE. >> SO WHEN THEY TALK ABOUT HAVING GRIDLOCK IN WASHINGTON, D.C., MAYBE IT'S NOT A BAD THING. >> YOU'RE GONNA DO IT! >> Reporter: LONG TIME REPUBLICAN FOOT SOLDIER MARY WENKE SAYS HER TROOPS ARE FIRED UP. >> THEY'RE PUTTING UP YARD SIGNS, THEY'RE GOING TO MEETINGS, GOING TO RALLIES. >> Reporter: DEMOCRAT MICHAEL BENNETT, WHO NARROWLY SURVIVED A PRIMARY CHALLENGE FROM THE LEFT, READILY CONCEDES THAT CURRENT ECOMIC WOES MAKE FOR A TOUGH CAMPAIGN MESSAGE. >> WE DIDN'T GET INTO THIS MESS OVERNIGHT AND IT'S NOT A SET OF ISSUES THAT A BUNCH OF 30-SECOND ADS ARE GOING TO FIX. >> Reporter: BUT BENNETT'S 30- SECOND ADS ARE FLOODING THE AIRWAVES AND THE MESSAGE THEY BRING IS NOT SUBTLE. >> COLORADO'S NO PLACE FOR KEN BUCK'S EXTREME IDEAS. >> Reporter: AND BUCK MAY HAVE GIVEN HIS OPPONENT AN OPENING ON A T.V. DEBATE YESTERDAY WHEN HE SUGGESTED THAT HOMOSEXUALITY MAY BE A MATTER OF LIFE-STYLE CHOICE. >> I THINK THAT BIRTH HAS AN INFLUENCE OVER IT LIKE ALCOHOLISM AND SOME OTHER THINGS BUT I THINK THAT BASICALLY YOU HAVE A CHOICE. >> Reporter: THIS RACE IS DEAD EVEN AND ONE OF THE MOST CRUCIAL. AND IT'S ONE OF A HANDFUL THAT WILL DECIDE WHICH PARTY CONTROLS THE UNITED STATES SENATE. JEFF GREENFIELD, CBS NEWS, DENVER. >> Couric: HERE IN NEW YORK TODAY, FOUR MEN WERE CONVICTED IN A HOME-GROWN TERROR PLOT. PROSECUTORS SAY THE MEN WANTED TO BLOW UP A SYNAGOGUE AND JEWISH COMMUNITY CENTER AND ALSO SHOOT DOWN U.S. MILITARY PLANES. THEY COULD GET LIFE IN PRISON. THEY WERE ARRESTED LAST YEAR AFTER PLANTING DEVICES OUTSIDE THE SYNAGOGUE IN THE BRONX. THOSE DEVICES WERE NOT BOMBS BUT FAKES SUPPLIED BY AN F.B.I. INFORMANT. A DIFFERENT KIND OF SECURITY THREAT HAS SOME FACEBOOK USERS WORRIED TONIGHT. HALF A BILLION PEOPLE WORLDWIDE USE THE SOCIAL NETWORKING SITE TO CATCH UP WITH FRIENDS, PLAY GAMES, AND SHARE COMMON INTERESTS. BUT IN SOME CASES, THEIR PERSONAL INFORMATION WAS BEING SHARED WITHOUT THEIR PERMISSION. HERE'S OUR SENIOR BUSINESS CORRESPONDENT ANTHONY MASON. >> Reporter: FACEBOOK ACKNOWLEDGED TODAY ITS PRIVACY POLICY HAD BEEN VIOLATED AFTER THE "WALL STREET JOURNAL" REPORTED THAT SOME OF THE SITE'S MOST POPULAR APPLICATIONS WERE TRANSMITTING PERSONAL INFORMATION ABOUT USERS TO ADVERTISING AND INTERNET TRACKING COMPANIES. >> IT'S AN INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF INFORMATION. >> Reporter: MARK ROTENBERG, HEAD OF THE ELECTRONIC PRIVACY INFORMATION CENTER SAID IT COULD INCLUDE BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION, FRIENDS, EVEN THE UNIQUE I.D. NUMBERS THAT IDENTIFY THE MORE THAN 500 MILLION FACEBOOK USERS. >> IT'S A LITTE LEARNING THE TELEPHONE SERVICE YOU SIGNED UP FOR WASN'T REALLY ABLE TO KEEP YOUR CALLS PRIVATE. >> Reporter: A FACEBOOK SPOKESPERSON SAID TODAY: THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION WARNED THE ONLINE ADVERTISING INDUSTRY THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION WARNED THE ONLINE AVERTISING INDUSTRY LAST YEAR THAT IT NEEDED TO CLEAN UP ITS ACT. "THE INDUSTRY NEEDS TO DO A BETTER JOB OF SELDF-REGULATION" ONE COMMISSIONER WROTE "OR A DAY OF RECKONING MAY BE FAST APPROACHING." THIS MONTH, LEADING TRADE GROUPS ANNOUNCED A NEW SET OF PRINCIPLES AND UNVEILED THIS ADVERTISING OPTION ICON. >> WE INTEND FOR IT TO BE ON EVERY AD WHERE DATA IS BEING COLLECTED OR USED AND WHEN YOU CLICK ON IT TELL YOU ABOUT THE POLICIES OF THE COMPANIES THAT ARE INVOLVED IN THE AD AND ALLOWS YOU TO OPT OUT. >> Reporter: BY TAKING THESE STEPS, THE INDUSTRY'S BASICALLY ACKNOWLEDGING THERE'S A PROBLEM? >> I THINK THE INDUSTRY IS ACKNOWLEDGING THEY HAVE TO DO BETTER. >> Reporter: BUT MARK ROTENBERG SAYS THE INDUSTRY CAN'T BE TRUSTED TO POLICE ITSELF. >> YOU KNOW, THE SYSTEM OF ONLINE PRIVACY IS PRETTY MUCH BROKEN DOWN AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE AT REALLY A CRICAL MOMENT RIGHT NOW, PROBABLY FOR THE FUTURE OF THE INTERNET. >> Reporter: THE ELECTRONIC PRIVACY INFORMATION CENTER HAS FILED TWO COMPLAINTS AGAINST FACEBOOK WITH THE F.T.C., ALLEGING UNFAIR AND DECEPTIVE TRADE PRACTICES. >> Couric: ALL RIGHT. ANTHONY MASON. ANTHONY, THANK YOU. WE GOT SOME COMMENTS ABOUT THIS STORY ON OUR CBS NEWS FACEBOOK PAGE, BY THE WAY. TURNING TO HEALTH NEWS NOW, IT'S A TERRIFYING SITUATION: A LOVED ONE OR COWORKER OR EVEN A COMPLETE STRANGER IS OVERCOME BY A SUDDEN HEART ATTACK. IT HAPPENS ABOUT 300,000 TIMES A YEAR IN THIS COUNTRY AND KNOWING C.P.R. CAN SAVE A LIFE. TODAY, AFTER 40 YEARS, THE AMICAN HEART ASSOCIATION CHANGED ITS GUIDELINES ON THE RIGHT WAY TO PERFORM IT. SO PAY ATTENTION AS DR. JON LAPOOK SHOWS US HOW. >> HERE WE GO! >> Reporter: TWO YEARS AGO, CHRIS AND DEBRA BADER WERE HIKING ON THIS TRIAL OUTSIDE BOSTON WHEN CHRIS SUDDENLY COLLAPSED. >> HE FELL STRAIGHT BACKWARDS, JUST BOOM. HE WAS DOWN. >> Reporter: HIS WIFE DEBRA IMMEDIATELY CALLED 911 AND CKY HAD SEEN A DEMONSTRATION OF C.P.R. USING HANDS ONLY, NO MOUTH TO MOUTH. >> I JUST PUT MY ENTIRE WEIGHT INTO HIM, PUSHING AS HARD AND AS FAST AS I COULD TO THE RHYTHM OF "STAYING ALIVE" AND I GUESS IT WORKED. >> ?WELL, YOU CAN TELL BY THE WAY I USE MY WALK... ? >> Reporter: TURNS OUT THIS DISCO SOUND HAS THE PERFECT BEAT FOR PUMPING THE CHEST DURING C.P.R. RECENT STUDIES SHOW THAT COMPRESSION-ONLY C.P.R. SAVES LIVES AND MANY MORE PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO DO IT. RIGHT NOW, LESS THAN A THIRD OF PEOPLE WHO WITNESS A CARDIAC ARREST STEP FORWARD. >> FOCUSING ON THE COMPRESSIONS GETS THE BODING THROUGHOUT THE BODY WHICH IS CRITICAL BUT IT ALSO... IT MINIMIZE THE HESITATION. >> Reporter: STARTING C.P.R. A.S.A.P. CAN KEEP THE PATIENT ALIVE UNTIL A DEFIBRILLATE LATER ARRIVES. WHAT'S KEY TO KNOW. >> WE'LL START WITH COMPRESSIONS. UNZIP THE JACKET, PLACE THE HEEL OF TWO HANDS IN THE CENTER OF THE CHEST AND PUSH HARD AND PUSH IT QUICK. >> Reporter: AND DOING CHEST COMPRESSIONS ON SOMEBODY IN CARDIAC ARREST KEEPS BLOOD FLOWING TO THE HEART AND THE BRAIN. BECAUSE DEBRA BADER KNEW THIS SIMPLIFIED C.P.R., SHE KEPT HER HUSBAND ALIVE UNTIL PARAMEDICS ARRIVED. >> IT MAKES YOU REALIZE EXACTLY HOW FRAGILE LIFE IS. >> Reporter: THIS APPROACH DOES NOT APPLY WHEN THE MAIN PROBLEM IS BREATHING-- LIKE WHEN SOMEONE HAS DROWNED. AND IT'S STILL IMPORTANT FOR PEOPLE TO BE TRAINED IN C.P.R. KATIE? >> Couric: ALL RIGHT, DR. JON LAPOOK. JON, THANK YOU. IN OTHER NEWS, IT COULD BE THE BEGINNING OF THE END OF MORATORIUMS ON HOME FORECLOSURES BANK OF AMERICA, WHICH HAD TEMPORARILY STOPPED REPOSSESSING HOMES IN ALL 50 STATES, SAID TODAY IT WILL RESUME SEIZING MORE THAN 100,000 HOMES IN 23 STATES. QUESTIONS ABOUT THE SIGNATURES ON SOME FORECLOSURE DOCUMENTS LED TO THE MORATORIUM. B.O.A. SAYS IT WILL RESUBMIT THEM WITH NEW SIGNATURES. STILL AHEAD ON THE "CBS EVENING NEWS," HE'S GOT THE WHOLE WORLD IN HIS HANDS AND TELLS HIS STORY TO STEVE HARTMAN. UP NEXT, THEY PUBLICLY BLASTED THE PRESIDENT'S ECONOMIC STIMULUS PACKAGE WHILE ASKING FOR SOME OF THE MONEY BEHIND THE SCENES. >> Couric: YOU'VE HEARD IT OVER AND OVER IN CAMPAIGN 2010: POLITICIANS RAILING ABOUT OUT- OF-CONTROL SPENDING. BUT EVEN THE MOST VOCAL CRITICS IN CONGRESS CAN'T RESIST BUYING FOR FEDERAL MONEY TO FUND PROJECTS BACK HOME. HERE'S CHIEF INVESTIGATE I CORRESPONDENT ARMEN KETEYIAN. >> Reporter: A RALLYING CRY FOR MANY REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE THIS IS FALL IS THEIR FIERCE OPPOSITION TO THE $787 BILLION STIMULUS BILL. HERE'S TEXAS CONGRESSMAN PETE SESSNS. >> NO TO BUDGET-BUSTING STIMULUS BILLS. >> Reporter: AND THEN THERE'S THIS BOAST SERVED UP BY MINNESOTA REPRESENTATIVE MICHELE BACHMANN. >> THAT'S WHY I VOTED AGAINST THE BUSH WALL STREET BAILOUT. THE FAILED PELOSI TRILLION DOLLAR STIMULUS. >> Reporter: IT TURNS OUT NO SOONER WAS THE INK DRY ON THE STIMULUS BILL THAN THESE LAWMAKERS AND DOZENS OF OTHERS FROM BOTH PARTIES WERE REACHING OUT BEHIND THE SCENES FOR MONEY TO FUND MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN LOCAL PROJECTS. >> WHEN IT CAME TIME TO GET A PIECE OF THE PIE AFTERWARDS PEOPLE WERE WRITING LETTERS AND BY THE DOZENS. >> Reporter: THE CENTER FOR PUBLIC INTEGRITY SAYS IT COLLECTED NEARLY 2,000 LETTERS FROM SCORES OF REPUBLICANS AND CONSERVATIVE DEMOCRATS REQUESTING FUNDS FROM A BILL THEY ORIGINALLY OPPOSED. AND MANY STILL CRITICIZE. >> WELL, THE LAST STIMULUS BILL DIDN'T CREATE ONE NEW JOB. >> Reporter: BUT THAT DIDN'T STOP MASSACHUSETTS SENATOR SCOTT BROWN FROM BACKING A $45 MILLION PROJECT. OR CONGRESSMAN SESSIONS FROM REQUESTING $81 MILLION IN STIMULUS MONEY FOR A TEXAS RAIL PROJECT-- A GRANT HE DIDN'T WIN. >> GOVERNMENT SPENDING DOESN'T CREATE GOOD JOBS. >> Reporter: BUT MINNESOTA'S BACHMANN STILL WANTED MONEY FOR A STATE BRIDGE SHE SAID WOULD DIRECTLY PRODUCE 1,470 NEW JOBS PER YEAR. AND IT WASN'T JUST REPUBLICANS. DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSMAN WALT MINNICK OF IDAHO VOTED AGAINST THE BILL THEN WROTE A SERIES OF LETTERS IN SUPPORT OF A BROADBAND PROJECT. HE'S NOW RUNNING THIS CAMPAIGN AD. >> I'VE SAID NO TO MORE GOVERNMENT SPENDING. >> I THINK THAT'S JUST THE TYPE OF POLITICAL DOUBLE SPEAK THAT MAKES VOTERS CRAZY. >> Reporter: MOST LAWMAKERS ARGUED THEY DIDN'T WANT THEIR PERSONAL OBJECTIONS TO PREVENT MONEY FROM FLOWING TO WORTHY LOCAL PROJECTS-- THE KIND OF GOVERNMENT SPENDING THEY STILL SO PUBLICLY OPPOSE. ARMEN KETEYIAN, CBS NEWS, NEW YORK. >> Couric: AND STILL AHEAD, LOOKS LIKE RUMORS OF HIS DEATH WERE GREATLY EXAGGERATED. MARK TWAIN'S OUT WITH A NEW BOOK AND IT'S A BEST-SELLER. >> Couric: ANOTHER TRAGEDY FOR RUTGERS UNIVERSITY, THIS TIME ON THE FOOTBALL FIELD. JUNIOR ERIC LE GRAND MAY BE PARALYZED FROM THE NECK DOWN AFTER MAKING A HIT IN SATURDAY'S WIN AGAINST ARMY. DOCTORS SAY THE NEXT FEW HOURS WILL SHOW IF THE INJY IS PERMANENT. LAST MONTH, RUTGERS FRESH MANTEIER WILL CLEMENTI TOOK HIS LIFE AFTER A ROOMMATE ALLEGEDLY BROADCAST A SEXUAL ENCOUNTER BETWEEN CLEMENTI AND ANOTHER MAN ON THE INTERNET. MARK TWAIN IS A BEST-SELLING AUTHOR AGAIN, A CENTURY AFTER HE DIED. THE FIRST INSTALLMENT OF HIS FINAL BOOK-- A THREE-VOLUME AUTOBIOGRAPHY-- HAS HIT NUMBER ONE ON amazon.com'S BEST-SELLER LIST, AND THAT'S JUST PREORDERS. THE BOOK HITS STORES NEXT MONTH. A BRILLIANT MARKETER, TWAIN ASKED THE BOOK NOT BE PUBLISHED FOR A CENTURY SO HE COULD SAY WHATEVER HE LIKED WITHOUT HURTING ANYONE'S FEELINGS. DID YOU KNOW YOU CAN EXPLORE SPACE WITHOUT A ROCKET? A FATHER AND SON FROM NEW YORK DID USING A WEATHER BALLOON. BACK IN AUGUST, LUKE AND MAX GEISSBUHLER PUT TOGETHER A HOMEMADE CAPSULE CONTAINING A VIDEO CAMERA AND AN iPHONE AND ATTACHED IT TO THE BALLOON. UP IT WENT ABOVE THE CLOUDS WITH THE CAMERA RECORDING SOME BREATHTAKING VIEWS. ONCE IN SPACE, 19 MILES ABOVE THE EARTH, THE BALLOON POPPED AND THE CAPSULE PLUMMETED BEFORE A PARACHUTE SLOWED IT DOWN. A G.P.S. TRACKING DEVICE ON THE iPHONE HELPED THEM FIND IT ABOUT 30 MILES FROM THEIR LAUNCH SITE SO WHY DID THEY DO IT? BECAUSE THEY COULD. STILL AHEAD, HE WAS STEVE HARTMAN'S HUMAN G.P.S. JEFF AND STEVE'S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE NEXT. >> Couric: WE END TONIGHT WITH A MAN WHO HAS SEEN OUR PLANET FROM A PERSPECTIVE FEW OF US EVER WILL-- FROM 200 MILES UP IN SPACE AS STEVE HARTMAN REPORTS, EVERYBODY IN AND ABOVE THE WORLD HAS A STORY. >> Reporter: AFTER TRAVELING TO THE FOUR CORNERS OF THE EARTH AND THEN SOME, OUR ADVENTURE OFFICIALLY ENDED IN THIS HOUSTON SUBURB WHEN I CAME FACE TO FACE WITH THE MAN WHO HAS CHANGED MY LIFE MORE THAN ANYONE I'VE NEVER MET. >> HELLO, STEVE, NICE TO MEET YOU. >> Reporter: HIS NAME IS JEFF WILLIAMS, HE'S THE ASTRONAUT WHO, FOR THE LAST TWO MONTHS, YOU'VE SEEN POINTING ME TO RANDOM LOCATIONS AROUND THE WORLD. USING OUR PLASTIC INFLATABLE BEACH BALL GLOBE. JEFF SENT ME TO SEVEN DIFFERENT COUNTRIES ON FOUR DIFFERENT CONTINTS. I TRAVELED TO EXACTLY WHERE HIS FINGER LANDED THEN MADE RANDOM STAB MYSELF AT THE LOCAL PHONE BOOK THE SEVEN PEOPLE WE MET AND THE SEVEN STORIES WE FOUND SEEMED TO HAVE REALLY RESONATED WITH VIEWERS ACROSS THE PLANET. >> YOU CALL ONE PERSON OUT OF THE PHONE BOOK ALL OVER THE WORLD? I LOVE YOUR SPECIAL. >> Reporter: THIS WAS IN BALI. >> A STORY LIKE YOURS PEELS THE OUTSIDE OF THE ONION AND GIVES PEOPLE A VIEW INTO REAL WORLD HUMAN LIFE. >> Reporter: JEFF SAYS THAT'S WHY NASA WANTED TO BE PART OF OUR PROJECT, TO TELL THOSE HUMAN STORIES. HE SAYS PART OF THE MISSION OF THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION TO S TO ENCOURAGE UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN COUNTRIES AND CULTURES. LIKE WHEN JEFF RETURNED TO EARTH A FEW MONTHS AGO IN A RUSSIAN SOYUZ. HE WAS WELCOMED IN KAZAKHSTAN LIKE A FELLOW COMRADE. >> OF COURSE IT'S ALL IN RUSSIAN BUT THEY'RE SAYING "WELCOME BACK, GREAT JOB" AND YOU BEAR THE HAT FOR A FEW MINUTES. >> Reporter: OF COURSE, NO ONE GAVE ME A HAT ON MY ADVENTURE. AND JEFF NEVER GOT ATTACKED BY A CAMEL ON HIS. IT'S EATING ME! BUT OUR VERY DIFFERENT JOURNEYS HAVE LED US TO VERY SIMILAR CONCLUSIONS. WE AGREED THAT EVEN THOUGH I'VE BEEN LOOKING AT A MICROCOSM OF THE WORLD AND HE'S BEEN FOCUSED ON A MUCH BROADER VIEW, YOU REALLY CAN'T GO THROUGH EITHER EXPERIENCE WITHOUT COMING HOME TO A NEW DEFINITION OF HOME. >> IN A VERY REAL SENSE, THE PLANET BECOMES HOME. AND ALSO AS YOU TRAVEL AROUND THE EARTH AND SEE THE EVIDENCE OF CIVILIZATION, YOU START TO BECOME A LITTLE MORE AWARE THAT PEOPLE ARE BASICALLY THE SAME ALL AROUND THE WORLD. >> Reporter: AND FINALLY, AS FOR THE INFLATABLE WORLD... >> THE GLOBE IS BACK ON EARTH. >> Reporter: WHERE IS IT SPECIFICALLY? >> HERE IN THE HOUSE. >> Reporter: IT'S IN THE HOUSE! >> YOU WANT TO SEE IT? >> Reporter: IT DIDN'T HAVE WRITING ON IT WHEN WE GAVE IT TO HIM. >> YOU TELL A GREAT STORY. I WANT TO GIVE THIS TO YOU. >> Reporter: SURE BEATS A HAT. MAYBE WE SHOULD GO TOGETHER TO THERE. ( LAUGHTER ). >> LET'S GO IN THE SUMMERTIME, THOUGH. >> Reporter: I DON'T HAVE ANY DESIRE TO GO TO THE NORTH POLE. I THINK IT WOULD BE NEAT TO SEE THE GIANT PLUG THERE. >> Couric: ( LAUGHS ) OH, THE GIANT PLUG, I GET IT. SO WHAT A NICE GUY. I'M SO GLAD NASA GOT INVOLVED IN THIS PROJECT AND YOU'RE RIGHT, IT'S SORT OF OUR SHARED HUMAN EXPERIENCES ARE VERY SIMILAR ALL AROUND THE WORLD. >> Reporter: THAT'S THE MESSAGE, I GUESS. >> Couric: I LOVED THE PIECES, THANK YOU FOR DOING THAT, STEVE. THAT'S THE EVENING NEWS FOR TONIGHT. I'M KATIE COURIC. GOOD NIGHT.
