		With 
		the milder temperatures we're experiencing this week, it may be hard to 
		remember that cold weather can arrive in a moment's notice, and more than 
		likely we'll have some below-freezing days between now and spring. Among the items in today's TOP STORIES is a release from Illinois 
		American Water. It offers tips on how to protect your plumbing in 
		below-freezing conditions. Be sure to check it out.

In 
				this undated photo, actor Brad Pitt in his role as Austrian 
				mountaineer and former Nazi party member Heinrich Harrer 
				reclines on a mountain ledge during the filming of "Seven Years 
				in Tibet." Pitt is now on China's version of Twitter, and his 
				mysterious first tweet has drawn thousands of comments. The 
				actor's verified Sina Weibo account sent the message Monday: "It is the truth. Yup, I'm coming." That was 
				forwarded more than 31,000 times and netted over 14,000 
				comments, many expressing surprise. He gathered more than 
				100,000 followers.
