ERICA HILL, CNN ANCHOR: Anderson, John Lennon's killer was denied parole today for a fifth time. Mark David Chapman will serve at least two more years in New York's Attica correctional facility for murdering the former Beatle in 1980. He is up for parole again in 2010.
More than half of U.S. companies and nearly three-quarters of foreign operations doing business here in the U.S. paid no federal income taxes for at least one year out of eight. That coming to us from a new government study.
And during that same time, we've learned the businesses did trillions of dollars in sales. The report says the companies avoided taxes through operating losses, tax credits, and by shifting income to no-tax countries. Words over the credit crisis have stocks tumbling today, the Dow down nearly 140 pounds to settle at 11,642. The NASDAQ basically flat, but it did drop nine while the S&P lost almost 16 points.
A Burger King employee in Ohio caught on tape taking a bath in the restaurant sink.
COOPER: How bizarre.
HILL: So strange. And now this person is going to have to find not only a new tub, Anderson, but a new job. The video ended up online where the county health commissioner ran across it. Two employees involved in the Senate were fired, another quit.
COOPER: What was he thinking?
HILL: The question may be what else was he doing before he got in the tub?
COOPER: Really? I hadn't even thought about that, actually.
HILL: I don't know. Maybe -- meaning -- maybe there was some substance that made him think it was a good idea. That's all I'm saying. Or maybe not.
COOPER: Let's move on.
HILL: Hey, how about that "Beat 360"?
Yes. Here's the winner.
HILL: That's a clean job.
The daily challenge gives viewers a chance to show up our staffers by coming up with a better caption than the one we could come up with.
I'll show that picture again. Tonight's picture, Senator Joe Lieberman, former secretary of homeland security, Tom Ridge, chatting while John McCain was talking at a town hall meeting in York, Pennsylvania.
Our staff winner, Jack, totally inappropriate. His caption, "Is it just me, or do a lot of the babies in this room look like John Edwards?"
(SOUND EFFECT: baby crying)
COOPER: So inappropriate. The sound effect didn't help.
Our viewer winner is Marvin...
HILL: So inappropriate.
COOPER: ... from San Antonio. His caption: "Let's go out for V.P. steaks after this. Would you like yours mediocre or well done?" (SOUND EFFECT: "Ooooh!")
COOPER: Marvin, your "Beat 350" T-shirt is on the way.
HILL: Oh happy day.
COOPER: You can check out all the entries. You won't want to take a bath after you wear that. You can play along tomorrow by going to AC 360. I don't know what that means, either.
HILL: Don't wash the T-shirt off, whatever you do.
COOPER: I don't know.
HILL: Wear it forever.
COOPER: Yes. All right. We're almost done, blissfully. At the top of the hour, breaking news, a cease-fire announced in the showdown between Russia and Georgia. We'll have the latest. And we'll hear what the presidential candidates are saying about it.
I'll show that picture again. Tonight's picture, Senator Joe Lieberman, former secretary of homeland security, Tom Ridge, chatting while John McCain was talking at a town hall meeting in York, Pennsylvania.

Taking a bath in a sink ment to for the sanitation of dishes at a family eating establishment is UNACCEPTABLE. I bet that guy is getting the opposite publicity he was shooting for xD. What an idiot!
