Baghdad threatened
ISIS Militants have infiltrated one of Baghdad's outer suburbs, Abu Ghraib, which is only eight miles from the runway perimeter of Baghdad's international airport, reports CBS News correspondent Elizabeth Palmer. She says Iraqi troops are still patrolling Abu Ghraib, but they play cat and mouse with the ISIS fighters, who stage hit-and-run attacks on security forces. Around the city, it's a mixed picture.
No-show
For the first time in three years, Kim Jong Un wasn't among the dignitaries at an event to honoring the anniversary of North Korea's ruling party. Instead, reports CBS News correspondent Seth Doane, a basket of flowers in his name was placed before statues of his father and grandfather, further fueling speculation about why he has not been seen in public since September.

Ebola vaccine
The first human trials of a vaccine against Ebola have begun. The vaccine is produced by Glaxo Smith Kline and is being tested on healthy volunteers. It's the first phase of a multi-step process before possible approval. The vaccine has been effective in primates.
Progress vs. diabetes?
