Transcripts For KPIX CBS This Morning 20140331

Tensions in the area were already raised. It happened as the United States and south korea took part in a joint military sea exercise. Its deadline day for americans looking to sign up for Insurance Coverage under president obamas health care law. In albuquerque, a march over the Fatal Police Shooting of a homeless man turned violent. Protesters threw blockrocks, blocked traffic. The search for flight 370 is ramping up. The clock is ticking down on the remaining battery life as the planes black boxes harrison oh, made it and kentucky takes the final spot at the final four the emotion, the elation goes to the huskies of the university of connecticut i take my bracket, and rip it up, and im done finished. Washington state search teams continued sifting through the muddy debris. Search dogs are being given a twoday break. An incredible rescue on a soccer field. A player from the opposite team flipped him on his back and cleared his airway. Oh, that . Ripped foul. She caught that that is indeed a holy cow. Disneys frozen became the highest grossing animated movie in history over the weekend. Of course. And all that matters. Whats the headline here . Storms rigged by a combination of the stock exchanges, the big wall street banks, and highfrequency traders. Who are the victims . Everybody who has an investment in the stock market. On cbs this morning. This is the ultimate of the final four. I dont know if im dreaming, but you have to slap me to make sure im dreaming. There we go. Im not dreaming im not dreaming this mornings eyeopener is presented by toyota. Lets go places. Welcome to cbs this morning, and good morning norah. Good morning to you charlie. Missed you. Missed you. Welcome back. Five strokes off your golf game . A few, yes. We begin with a bombshell report that could change the way wall street does business. 60 minutes revealed last night how a few stock market insiders are making billions in highfrequency trading. It is based on information that reaches them a fraction of a second ahead of everyone else. And thats just long enough to cash in while raising costs for ordinary investors. Steve kroft talked with author Michael Lewis about his new book out this morning called flash boys. Lewis says the stock market is rigged. If it wasnt complicated, it wouldnt be allowed to happen. The complexity disguises what is happening. If its so complicated you cant understand it then you cant question it. This is all being done by computers. All being done by computers. Its too fast to be done by humans. Humans have been removed. Past is the operative word. Machines with secret programs are now trading stocks in tiny fractions of a second, way too fast to be seen or recorded on a stock ticker or computer screen. Faster than the market itself. Highfrequency traders, big wall street firms and stock exchanges have spent billions to gain an advantage of a millisecond for themselves and their customers, just to get a peek at stock market prices and orders aflash before everyone else, along with the opportunity to act on it. The insiders are able to move faster than you. Theyre able to see your order. And play it against other orders in ways you dont understand. Theyre able to frontrun your order. What do you mean frontrun . Theyre able to identify your desire to buy shares in microsoft and buy them in front of you, and sell them back to you at a higher price. It all happens in infinitesimally small periods of time. The speed traders have is milliseconds. Some of its fractions of milliseconds. Its enough for them to identify what youre going to do and do it before you do it at your expense. So it drives the price up . It drives the price up and, in turn, you pay a higher price. Reporter Michael Lewis is not the first person to allege the stock market is rigged or that highfrequency traders are frontrunning the market. He was the first to find Brad Katsuyama the first to figure out how it was being done. A very unlikely character. A trader at the royal bank of canada, a young man named Brian Katayama realized the market he thought he knew had changed. The market seemed willing to sell stock. The minute he went to buy it someone else buy it. The stock went up. It was as someone knew what he was doing before he did it. Eric schneiderman is with us investigating the highfrequency trading. Welcome. Thank you. So highfrequency traders, as shown by Michael Lewis and steve kroft, is it illegal . Its been around for a while, not illegal. What michael is talking about are highfrequency traders who use their speed to take advantage of cracks in the foundations of our market. As i think he explained in the 60 minutes piece, we now have 60 public and private markets that are linked up, and there are cracks. There are places you can get to faster than other people and frontrun the market. Whats improper is frontrunning the market, using any special advantage or edge with your speed to have an unfair advantage over anyone else. Theres an assumption in the marks that everyones allowed to do research but theyre fundamentally is what they laid out last night illegal . Some of it i believe, may be illegal. Our offices had an investigation for over a year in some practices related to highfrequency trading. There was a situation we dealt with last year where we found that thomson reuters, which releases surveys of consumer confidence, was giving a twosecond edge to an elite group of subscribers, and in that two seconds, the highfrequency traders were able to move the market in their credit. They stopped doing that. There are situations where there may be illegal conduct, and were looking at it under new york securities laws. But the average investor hears this report and hears the stock market is rigged and you say youre not sure whether its illegal or not. What are you going to do . Well, two things. One is were shining a lot on this whole problem. Thats why we started talking about it over a year ago. I think mr. Lewis book will help us shine a light on this problem. Theres two things we have to do. One is, we have to investigate in the commodities future trading corporation, the s. E. C. Has to investigate whether there is currently anything illegal. The second is this clearly requires new laws and reforms to catch up with the changes in technology. Whos doing this . Who are the bad guys . Highfrequency traders are firms all around the world. Theyre massive investments. And there is an incredible race for speed now. People are paying hundreds of millions of dollars to shave milliseconds off. Its used by all different kinds of firms, including some perfectly legitimate firms. But the highfrequency traders are the amazing combination of scientists and analysts that are just shaving speed every day. Which brings up the interesting point. The young man last night who found this out has created an exchange that by delaying by delaying the highfrequency trader, says he evens the playing field. Correct. And its what they call speed bumps. If you put a speed bump in, it slows it down. There are different ways to build speed bumps. Ive proposed a different kind than what iex is using, but its clear to me we need it for two reasons we can prevent unfair advantage, and destabilize it that it has, because it encourages people to engage in the more risky behavior. Fractions of a second. Incomprehensible. Really milliseconds are something that you cant even get your mind around. But, boy, can they move markets with the automated Robot Computers that are triggered to shoot out offers and trades as soon as one factor changes. Incredible reporting. Well wait to see if there are changes. Thank you so much. Were following a dramatic escalation of tensions on the Korean Peninsula this morning. South korean Officials Say the north fired artillery shells across a disputed sea boundary. Troops from the south fired back. The white house is calling north koreas actions, quote, dangerous and provocative. Seth doane is in beijing where china is asking both sides to calm down. Seth, good morning. Reporter good morning to you. Yes, nowrth korea fired about 100 artillery shells crossing the border into south korea. South korea responded by firing 300 artillery shells toward the north. Its not clear how many of the shells landed on the other side of that maritime border. All of the taking place in the yellow city. The issue is the shells are landing quite close to inhabited islands there, forcing some South Koreans to flee to emergency evacuation shelters. This is all taking place against the backdrop of regularly scheduled joint military exercises taking place between south korean and u. S. Troops. I spoke with a cbs news producer in seoul today who told me that this is really making headlines there and causing some concern, not only because of the sheer number of shelling shells that were talking about here, but also because its reminiscent of an incident back in 2010 that was quite similar, where you had north korean shelling that killed four South Koreans. That was the first time South Koreans had been killed in that way since 1953 the de facto that ended the korean war. The real concern here is that this is not only going to inflame emotions but any casualties could really prompt some sort of significant military response. Charlie . Seth, thanks. Australia says this mornings search for missing Malaysian Airlines jet is bigger and more intense. Crews in the air and on the water are scouring a zone more than 1,000 miles off the coast. Holly williams has been on the water this morning, where an australian ship is now equipped with technology to find the planes black box. Reporter good morning. That is the ocean shield an Australian Naval ship you can see behind me and its carrying a piece of hightech American Equipment that could make a big difference in the search for Malaysia Airlines flight 370. Its scheduled to leave port today for the search area. 1,100 miles off australias west coast. On board the ocean shield is a towed pinger locator that can detect black boxes or flight recorders in waters up to 20,000 deep. It was shipped in by the u. S. Navy along with a support team of 11. If the black boxes can be found, they could finally explain what went wrong on flight 370. But times running out, because the beacons on the flight recorders may only have eight days of battery life left and the pinger locator can only be used after at least some debris from the missing plane has been recovered and the search field has been narrowed. But three weeks after the jetliners mysterious disappearance, that still hasnt happened. It all depoends upon how effective we are at reducing that search area. Right now, the search areas basically the size of the indian ocean, which would take an untenable amount of time to search. Reporter finding the wreckage has proved more difficult than first thought. We flew with the crew of an australian p3 orion in perfect conditions. Four hours into the flight they spotted something that looked like it might be wreckage. White and light blue just below the surface. Well drop to get better eyes. Reporter the pilot banked hard to turn around and take a second look, but it turned out to be yet another disappointment, a fishing buoy attached to a rope. The ocean shield and its cargo wont reach the search area until thursday but the hope is by then some wreckage will have been found and theyll be able to begin the hunt for the planes black boxes. All right holly, thank you. And tonight is the official deadline to sign up for Health Insurance under the Affordable Care act. The Obama Administration says it has met the revised goal of 6 million signups. Bill plant is at the white house where officials are giving people a little more time to finish. Bill, good morning. Reporter morning. The administration is happy to point out that thousands rushed to sign up before tonights deadline. A big surge in california for instance, which has created some delays. But believe it or not, the National System was actually taken down for maintenance this morning. Nonetheless, the deadlines been extended for those who start the process but cant finish it by tonight. From californias bay area to this miami mall people packed health care signup centers, waiting for hours. If you have a ticket reporter in Silver Spring maryland organizers had to call in reinforcements. We given out about 100 numbers, and the building doesnt open for another hour. Reporter baltimores Andrew Morton said he tried going online but the website kept kicking him off. I cannot make a judgment until i actually get something and see the different plans that they have. Reporter americans are still making up their minds about the Affordable Care act. According to a poll by the Kaiser Family foundation only 38 have a positive opinion of the law. The poll also found that 6 out of 10 uninsured americans didnt know about the march 31st deadline. And 50 said that they planned to stay uninsured. Cbs news scott pelley asked the president about it during an interview last week. We admittedly had just a terrible start because the website wasnt working, and despite losing effectively two months we are going to be reasonably close to that original projection. And what it tells you is that people actually are looking for Affordable Health care. Reporter but republicans like Speaker John Boehner said the extension is just proof that the law is broken. What the hell is this, a joke . Listen, this is part of a longterm pattern of this administration manipulating the laws for its own convenience. Reporter the extension for signing up is pretty much on the honor system. If you check a box on healthcare. Gov saying that you tried to sign up but were unable to do so because of technical issues, then you get the extension. The administration does say, though, that they will be checking to verify that people who do that really did try to log on. Bill, thanks. Searchers in washington are still looking for survivors of a deadly mudslide. But after nine days even the biggest optimists say a miracle could bring good news. John blackstone is outside of oso where its at least stopped raining. John, good morning. Reporter good morning. The rain has stopped here but orning as t it chilly this morning. The number of known fatalities rose yesterday. The medical examiner now confirms 21 dead add to that four more bodies found by searchers in the debris yesterday. The list of the missing remains at 30. The work here is painful and painstaking. At the impact zone the vast scale of the landslide seems to dwarf the hundreds of workers carefully digging through the debris. Its a daunting task often undertaken only with hand tools. Crews work in mud and water that can be waist deep. The slide brought a forest of trees along with it. It knocked everything down, then mixed everything up. When the mountain let go it didnt just slide, it kind of blew out at the bottom and then it slid down in the back. It kind of sloshed up and then sloshed back down. We have areas where theyre estimated that the slide is almost 70 to 80 feet deep. Reporter and much of what is under the mud is dangerous. Weve got sewer. Weve got all the products, again, from your home. Gasoline from the vehicles, oil. Reporter just after the slide hit, isaac hall was one of the first on the scene. He saw a small boy in the mud. With that little boy, you thinking of your own son . Oh, yeah. Reporter the boy was 4yearold jacob spillers. You handing the little boy up to the helicopter. The pilot, yeah. Reporter what was the boy experiencing . What was he like . Oh, he was freaked out. He was freaked out, in tears, freezing cold. Reporter as searchers look for more bodies Funeral Services are being planned for those already found. This woman, whose car was buried by the slide, was found last week. Im relieved that they found her. Im relieved that they got her out of the mud. Im relieved that well be able to have a memorial for her. Reporter but the pain is going to be there. Forever. Reporter the search here is heartbreaking, and for the searchers, its backbreaking. Crews are now being rotated out to allow fresh workers to come in. Even the dogs are getting time off. All right, john, thank you so much. And a United Nations report out this morning paints a bleak picture for the environment. U. N. Scientists warn Climate Change is already having a sweeping effect on all continents and oceans. If Greenhouse Gases are not controlled, the report warns of more coastal flooding. Inland flooding could damage big cities drought could cause widespread hunger and other weather extremes could affect everything from electricity to running water.

Welcome back to cbs this morning. The gang is all here. Coming up in this half hour dozens of earthquakes in Southern California have left many people uneasy this morning. Professor michio kaku is in our green room and hell let you know what comes next. He looks worried. Elaine quijano takes us inside the brandnew factory that makes snickers and about the problem to the time of the recall. Regulators say gm had time to correct the issue and did not. A document shows gm determined that an ignition switch was not up to specification in 2002. The company went ahead anyway. They redesigned the switch in 2006, but never changed the part number, adding to the confusion. The documents also say the national Highway Safety administration in charge of policing auto safety noticed a trend in complaints in 2007 but never investigated further. It is not clear why. Nhtsa looked again in 2010. Congressman tim murphy is chairman of the sub House Committee on energy and commerce. I dont think that gm and nhtsa were talking to each other adequately and it may be the different departments were talking to each other. We need to find out why. Reporter the recalls at gm over a faulty switch in compact cars now inclines 2. 6 million vehicle. The problem . It could disable the power steering and the air bags. Why didnt they find out that the air bags didnt work too . I think if they had done that sooner you wonder if they would have made a recall sooner. Reporter as families prepare to watch testimony on capitol hill tuesday many are still trying to figure out why its taken this long. Five years ago 25yearold sadie died. Her cars Safety Equipment failed to deploy. Her family thinks the faulty switch is to blame. When you hit a tree dead on, you expect the seat belt and air bag to function properly. Both David Friedmann the acting head of nhtsa and mary barra, the ceo of gm will testify on tuesday. The senate takes up the matter on wednesday. Gayle . Jeff glor thank you. Los angeles is feeling the effects of an aftershock. All the shaking is making people nervous. It could be assigned that a big one is coming. The first quake hit just after 9 00 p. M. On friday night. A 5. 1 magnitude shaker that knocked items off store shelves, pictures off of wafflells, and picture things off of frames. Fans felt it during the baseball game at Dodger Stadium and at a High School Musical in barea, california. The aftershocks continues as dr. Lucy jones from the United States Geological Survey was briefing reporters. And now were having an aftershock. Reporter more than 100 aftershocks followed, including a 4. 1 that rattled more nerves. The original 5. 1 was considered moderate but was on a major fault line. Scientists say another quake on the fault could cause billions in damage and kill thousands of people. It was two weeks ago there was another one on a fault line in california. Earthquake. Were having an earthquake. Reporter california has been in what scientists call a quiet period of seismic activity for more than a decade. Jones says that now may soon be ending. For the downtown area, this is the first. Reporter that earthquake was nearly six years ago. For cbs this morning, ben tracy, los angeles. Professor michio kaku is a physics professor with the university of new york. Good morning. Good morning. So is there any indication that a bigger quake may be cominging in that region . Well if youre a california dream, this is wakeup call if you want to move to california. A triple whammy. Three earthquakes in just one week. Whats most dangerous is it was along a new earthquake fault we didnt know existed until 15 years ago. The puente hills fault which runs underneath from los angeles down to hollywood. An earthquake there we dont know when its going to take place could cost 250 billion in property damage. Thats a quarter of a trillion dollars according to the u. S. Government. This is a cause for concern, though with cannot predict yet when the big one is going to happen. When we talk to people in california, they say, we know we know, were not worried. To follow up on charlies question, how worried should they be and what do you tell your students . I grew up in california so im used to having small tremors and i grew up in the big one. I tell students in their class, in their lifetime they may see the big one. Theres a 46 chance that within the next 30 years there will be a 7. 5 magnitude earthquake or bigger. The big one, 46 chance in 30 years. And how effective and accurate are the detection capability to know when the next big one is coming. Its a cross between black magic and voodoo. That good. However, we can get an Early Warning system that can give you 40, 50 seconds of warning. Japan has one, for example. The people of california have to decide whether or not to get that warning. What would that do . If we were to have 40 or 50 seconds right now, we could run out the door. Trains could stop. Conductors could stop. Surgeons could stop an operation. Elevators could stop you would get off the elevator. You would save some lives but youre not going to same some lives. But youre not going to save everybody. Thats the best we can do right now. Theres a warning from the panel on climate risk. The worst is yet to come. This has to be taken seriously because in 2007 they simply said its coming its coming. This report says its here. Take a look at the thinning of the ice caps, the rising of sea level, the acidification of the ocean, the bleaching of the coral reefs, hurricane sandy. Were looking at bizarre weather patterns. You cant say any one particular thing is a smoking gun but collectively 100year storms 100year floods 100year droughts 100year for it fires, something very dangerously is happening with the weather. And to those Climate Change deniers . They realize something is happening with the weather. They admit that. However, they disagree about human activity. They say perhaps its part of a natural cycle. But no one disagrees that the polar ice is spinning and sea levels are rising. You can measure these things. The earth is heating up. Meanwhile the nations of the earth, 100 nations signed on to this report. All right. Professor michio kaku thank you so much. Good to see you. And its a big thumbsup for american manufacturing. Good news. Brandnew 270 million factory built in kansas. It opened on thursday. Yummy. Were going go inside this Sweet Success story. Thats next here on cbs this morning.

Talk to your doctor about any medical conditions you have, including g6pd deficiency, and any medications you are using.

That number is expected to increase to 24 billion yrs in five years. Mars chocolate is trying to satisfy this countrys sweet tooth. Elaine quijano got a rare look behind the scene. Good morning. Good morning to you. Mars family began making candy more than a hundred years ago in a kitchen in tacoma washington. Now a company that is named by forbes as one of the best companies to work for, its now making history. They welcome new visitors to its brandnew home. A 5,000squarefoot facility that can turn the aromas into children. Brett spangler is the site director and a 27year veteran of mars incorporated. What is that smell were smeing in here . Thats the wonderful aroma of chocolate. Reporter while the Company Makes many of the candy bars we all grew up with from milky way to twix to three musketeers this company has been built to produce its two bestsellers, peanut m and ms and snickers. How much candy does this line produce . With this format well put out over 6 mullion bars a day. Reporter 6 million a day . A day. Reporter in this chocolate room this vat makes 122,000 pounds of chocolate each work day. Down the hall is the peanut roasting room. That hits you as well. Absolutely. Between the chocolate plant and this area of the plant, its the kind of thing that makes you hungry all day long. 20 tons of peanuts are roasts here every day, but not evan makes the cut. Only one in 100 is good enough for a peanut m m. We want to make sure its a large enough nut that its going to give flavor. That Quality Control even sured that the m m logo is placed dead center. Theyll be produced here daily. Even as it expands operation mars says its also adjusting to consumer concerns to obesity. Debra saunders is the president of mars chocolate north america. Here we make our mini. If you dont want the full bar, you have the small one. That gives the consumer the power to decide how much youd like to have. Reporter victoria mars is the great granddaughter of the man who started mars and the chairman of the board. Its been 35 years since mars opened up a factory in north america. Why now . Because we needed the capacity, as simpy as that. Weve outgrown the factories we had and we needed more capacity. Reporter it also including pet food and chewing gum. They earned about 33 billion in 2012 but numbers are hard to come by. The mars fam family has kept the Company Private for decades since it was founded in 1911. As a private business we can think long term. Its about what is good for the future, whats the right decision for the future. Its not about whats the right decision for the next quarter.

Its a reason to come to work every day to smell the chocolate hand know were making some of americas favorite brand. Theyre confident americas craving for chocolate will continue to grow and its designed the plant in topeka to care that for the next 15 years. I hear theres a story behind snickers. What is that . It was actually named after a family horse. So it was very interesting. One of the things we also asked was about m ms and how it is they get the chocolate and the shell so perfectly surrounding the peanut. They wouldnt tell us but they did tell us the name m ms comes from a partner. Mars and partner whose last name was murray. Im surprised they reject peanuts. Only the best. Only the best. Go mars.

Super Fast Technology hurts everyday investors. New York State Attorney Eric Schneiderman has been investigating the practice and we asked him this morning what regulators need to do. Two thing we have to do. One is we have to investigate in the commodities future trading and the s. E. C. Has to investigate whether theres currently anything illegal and whether this requires new laws and reforms to catch up to technology. Who is doing . Who are the bad guys . Highfrequency traders, firms all around the world. Massive investments. Theres an incredible race for speed now. People are paying hundreds of millions of dollars to shave seconds off. Its used by all different kinds of firms, including perfectly legitimate firms. These amazing combination of scientists and analysts that are just shaving speed every day. Schneiderman says virtual speed bumps can trade down those and make the stock market more fair. Dangerous and provocative. According to south korean officials, north korea fired artillery shells into the yellow sea. About 100 shells landed in the waters beyond the disputed sea border. South korea returned fire.

Malaysian flight 370 is getting more news this morning, to locate the boeing 777 is expected to depart from fleet based today. Holly williams is at the site where the ship is getting ready. Reporter good morning. On board the ocean shield behind me is a towed pinger locater, flown in by the u. S. Navy along with the 11 support crew. The pinger locater can find black boxes and flight recorders up to 20,000 feet under the water. If the block boxes can be found shall they could finally explain what went wrong on Malaysia Airlines flight 370. But time is running out. Because the batteries on the black box beacons may only have around eight days of life left. It moves very slowly. It only covers around 3 miles an hour hour. It cant be used until some wreckage is found and investigators have a better idea about where exactly the boeing 777 went down. At this point, though not a single piece of debris has been found from the missing jetliner. Holly, thanks. Today is the last official day to get Health Insurance under the Affordable Care act without paying a penalty. But this morning, many investors to healthcare. Gov are finding that the website is down for maintenance. 6 million americans have signed up after a slow start that was blamed on flaws in that website. A new Associated Press poll shows 26 of americans support the healthcare law. That is the lowest number since the law was passed four years ago. Obamacare is sure to have an impact on elections this fall. John dickerson is in washington. John, good morning. Good morning, charlie. Despite all, 6 million perhaps come into 7 million sign up, does that mean its working . Well, it means that its overcome the obstacles that that terrible launch put in front of the administration. That 6 million number as you say, approaching 7 million, that was the original target for health. Knowing if its working we have to learn whether the people who are enrolling are actually paying their bills. Then we have to find out who is enrolling. Are they hilty or . If theyre sick that affects future premiums. Then we have to know where in the country theyre signing up. We dont have any of that information yet. When will we have it . Mid april. Well start to get numbers about who signed up. Theyll be unspecific. We need to know the geological location and sick versus healthy. To look from there is Insurance Companies in the spring and summer as they put out their new rates for premiums. Are those prices going to go up more than they would have about this program . That will give us some indication of who is signing up. What about the political impact . It seems even the democrats who are running for reelection are worried that this may hurt their chances of holding on to the senate. 7 million target is reached, that is helpful but its not great for democrats because the political problem here is worried that this program, even if it meets this target is out of control, that it will cause problems in the healthcare system. And the people who are most animated angry and ready to go to the polls are people who feel that way or feel like this entire program is an unnecessary government intrusion. Those people are the motivated people and these good numbers for democrats or for the administration arent going to change the minds of those very motivated people. Do you think the Obama Administration can claim some degree of success because it did make 6 million . They were trying to get to 7 million. Or is it still looked at well you didnt reach your goal . I think theyll certainly claim success, no matter what happens. And i think the best news for democrats is if they can point to a number this is a number that just doesnt come from the administration. It comes from the Congressional Budget Office this 7 million number. It will at least neutralize the conversation a little bit so the democrats, who worry about the senate can switch to some other topic. I dont think this is an issue the democrats can necessarily run on f they can neutralize it it will allow them to raise some other issue in this election. John good to see you.

Kelly somehow gets out of trouble. Reporter after 11 seasons with the Buffalo Bills, jim kelly retired in 1996. The challenges hes faced since have far surpassed any obstacle on the field. One year after leaving the game kellys only son hunter was born with a rare neurological disorder. Jim became the nations most prominent voice in early screening and refrp. His Foundation Hope has raised more than 15 million. The turfest person ive ever met in my life is my hero my soldier, my son, hunter. I love you, buddy. Hunter died in 2005 at the age of 8. Kellys wife jill. I think the struggle with hunter has changed that man. Hes changed. And i think the struggle with hunter is also helping him to get through what hes going through now and the compassion that he has for people is being paid back to him a basilionfold right now. Reporter today nine years after hunter passed away jim is fighting an aggressive recurrence of oral cancer. The cancer has spread and is currently not operable.

Jim said, 34 you just dont know how bad my head is feeling right now, and my response to him was if i could take your head for a little bit for a little while, i would switch it with mine. Reporter dan kelly says the most remarkable part about his younger brother in the face of allconsuming illness is his continuing concern for others. Its never been about him. Its always been about other people and what he can do for somebody else. He is the definition of love. Its very painful to watch him go through it and to not just sit there and not be able to do anything about it. Because you cant change that. All i can do is pray and just ask him if theres anything i can do at any given moment. Are there times when you wonder why . Yeah. I wonder it a lot. Reporter late last night jim sent us this message from the hospital. Im very humbled that so many people took the time out to send me well wishes and more importantly the prayers. Thats whats going to get me through it. Id have so many people to thank. On behalf of my family,ing their you so very much and dont sthoeps prayers. What is your one wish for your dad .

Neil Patrick Harris and jason segel share an impromptu performance of the confrontation, of course, from the Broadway Musical les mis. They appeared at the Actors Studio here in new york yesterday and a member of the audience asked them to sing the duet. Revival of les mis opened up on broadway. And, of course the finale of how i met your mother is tonight. Viewers have waited nine years to find out how ted met his wife. This morning were going to learn on one of the most popular sitcoms. They sang with such gusto. I didnt know jason could sing. Did not know that. I didnt know they knew the lines. Oh. Yeah. Thats an incredible performance. Also coming up this half hour, two interesting medical stories. One deals with diet soda and your heart and the other deals with weight loss surgery and diabetes. Its offers customers free coffee today during normal breakfast hours. We showed you last week how taco bell ran a commercial with men names ronald mcdonald. This weekend mcdonalds tweeted imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. And they have a taco bell chihuahua. Thats nicely played. I love this picture. It shows 8monthold Prince George with his parents the duke and duchess. Look at their cocker spaniel. It was celebrated yesterday in the uk. Beautiful. And the Los Angeles Times says disneys frozen is now the highest grossing animated film ever. Frozen opened in japan over the weekend pushing its box office takes to more than 1 billion and as we reported codirected by a woman. I know grown men who can sing words to that song. Talking about you producer ryan kadro. Busted in the control room. And the Washington Post says a simple blood test can be useful in the emergency room. A study in sweden shows that test plus election trow cardio gram with 99 accurate in determining which patient with chest pain will not have a heart attack. It can help doctors decide which patients to send home and who needs more care. Two new medical studies are getting a lot of attention this morning. One of them shows how weight loss surgery can be a lifesaver for diabetics. The other looks at a possible link between diet soda and Heart Disease in women. Cbs contributing doctor agus is here in studio 57. Good morning. Good morning. I im surprised with all everyone heres anyone drinks it. But now youre looking at a connection with diet soda and women and Heart Disease. What is that . Large studies, tens of thousands of women looked at two or more of these diet sodas a day, dramatic increase in both heart attack and later in death rate. So we need to take aware. What happens is when you have a diet soda your body is like its sugar let me get my metabolism up. None are there and you get fooled. The next time it says im not going to make an insulin change. We need to drink water or flavored waters or teas or other things and stay away from the sodas around the diet sodas. Are the diet soda drinkers as much to blame as the diet soda do you think . Thats the thing. It was causal for the heart attack. Many who drink do other things. What we do know is its probably not healthy and points to changes that are not going to be good in the long room. Is this about how much too much sugar does to your heart . Too much sugar or now we knowdiet sweeteners do the same thing. We need to point out obesity is a major risk factor for Heart Disease. Diet beverage consumption has been shown to help with weight loss as part of a weight loss plan. People say they used to driven five coke days and now i drink diet coke. We dont have the evidence that shows thats the case. When you start to fool the body with calorieless drinks bad things can happen. Bring substitutes in. Water is a helluva substance. It works. There was another study that came out moments ago about the benefits of weight loss surgery dramatically reducing diabetes. Thats really good new sthoos this is dramatic. And so people who had this weight loss surgery days later they start to see changes in their dieabetesdiabetes. Days later. It started to go away. 94 of them no longer required diabetes medicine. Certainly very exciting is that this weight loss surgery has a Health Benefit in addition to losing weight. Is it a magic bullet . Could we call it that . It certainly works. Less than 1 of people who need the surgery actually have the surgery. And another study that came out last week was really profound. What it showed is we thought the surgery worked by shrinking the stomach. It turns out its real mechanism is it changes the bacteria in the g. I. Track so you an southern didnt thinks, metabolize differently and thats why they got better before they lost weight. Fascinating. Good to see you. Nice of miles to see you. Its a privilege for him to be on spring break and the kids to see this. And matching outfits. Like it. I like it. All right. Ing that you. Thank you. And after nine seasons, how i met your mother is finally ready to answer that big question. Its adorable. The whole place looks great, guys, but i cant believe you let ted hang his jousting ramps from the bedroom wall. Yeah. Thats ted. That is part of tonights longawaited series finale. We met them at the mcguys pub the inspiration for their comedy comedy. They promised plenty of tears but no lose ends tonight. Shah we toast to your final episode . Herear, hear. Cheers. Nine years ago these actors took a chance on a quirky show with a strange premise. Kids im going to tell you an incredible story, the story of how i met your mother. A love story told backwards. Is it going to take a while . Yes. In fact it took all nine seasons for ted, played by josh radnor to finally meet the misses. I didnt know how ted was going meet the mother until i was finding out the unfolding mystery week to week like everybody else. Did you ask along the way . I did at first but i decided it was best to play naive present ted. I have looked high and low for someone i can love and adore and cook waffles for. The closest ive come is marshall. It was a pretty risky idea. When you first read for the show did you think, i dont know, or did you know it was going be a hit . I dont know. I just knew i loved the script and then at each sort of stage it just got better. How hard can it be to name a baby. Right . Just look at her. Shes clearly amanda. Emily. Despite the title how i met your mother is clearly a show about friendship. Uhoh. And for this cast playing friends led to becoming friends. Hi. Hi. I think its kind of weirdly chemical and innate. I always felt when i was doing other projects where i was supposed to fall in love with a juliet or something that i was markedly i was looking at the good traits and not seeing her bad traits because i was supposed to be falling in love with her. So were all friends and were written toward being friends and laughing at each others jokes so we in turn gravitate toward that just by design right . They all stare at my when you squeeze this toy, a recording of ted says i wuv you, mommy. Thats cute. Who would make fun of her for that. He gave it to her when he was 19. I wuv you, mommy. The writers right them so they like it. Theres not a pes mist in this group whos always nay saying. Everybody is always sort of championing each other and so it kind of reflects on our relationship. Nine years together has been a long time. Youve had babies gotten married. Big life events true . Oi, yeah. Thats been the biggest honor of them all. You havent done either of those things. No, no. But getting to observe. Ive experienced these things by osmosis. Are you rubbing his leg under there . Yeah, of course. Thats not his leg. I know this is your wedding, but this is a big moment for all of us. This may be the last time were all hanging out together for who knows how long. Josh you teared up when you read the final episode. Well just to clarify, it wasnt i wasnt heave crying at the gym. I got a little misty as i think everyone did. I think its impossible to read an episode like that with not just the nine years of doing the show but doing it together. Its so masterfully written. You know its an emotional read. Do you worry that the final episode wont live up to expectations . No. Really. Its that good. We think so. Everybody has different opinions and everybody wants to see these characters end up in different ways but im very happy. Everyone was a little concerned in our mid seasons as to what the endgame was, but once we were confident that they knew what they were doing and once we were actually told a few weeks before what the actual endgame was, it justified the means. It justified all of the long the long play of our show. Its not like we end on the final scene and then they met good night, everybody. It was deeper than that. I was really relieved to find out there was a plan. My big nightmare is uhoh, the shows still going its nine years, wed better thing of plan. But very clearly theyve been laying something out.
