radar" this saturday, august we are moov-ing "under the radar" this saturday, august 21st, 2010 captioning funded by cbs >> hi, everyone. a whole lot to get to this morning but to our top story, continuing to evolve overnight a giant recall with the eggs by two iowa farm companies covers 550 million eggs nationwide, linked to more than 1,000 salmonella cases in at least four states. an investigations are also looking into reported cases now in 12 other states. our news correspondent bill whittiker has this report. >> reporter: a second iowa egg producer implicated in the salmonella outbreak. hill len dale farms recalling 170 million eggs under five brands stamped with plant numbers p-1860 and p-1663. what's now the biggest salmonella outbreak from eggs in the u.s. has put the spotlight on egg production, especially large-scale factory-like facilities like wright county egg in gault, iowa, where it allegedly began. the huge plant houses seven million chickens producing five and a half million egg as day. researchers say even with tougher new food and drug administration regulations, government oversight is too weak with too few regulators to monitor today's mega facilities. >> the new rules the fda issued for eggs in july are helpful because they set standards. but, they are lot like a speed limit sign without a cop to enforce it. >> reporter: what this california rancher says, most producers know it's in their best interest to keep their facilities clean and eggs safe. >> we just got through testing in july and came up negative. it's something our industry is going to have to start monitoring and, you know, through the -- >> reporter: for now, the centers for disease control expect more salmonella cases before the outbreak subsides. joining us from washington is michael taylor, the fda deputy commissioner for foods in charge of the agency's food safety strategy. mr. taylor, good morning you to. >> good morning. >> this recall is massive. are we expecting this to get any bigger? >> well, it's a continuing investigation. we'll continue to follow up on reports of illnesses. we do think we've identified the seven farms that are the source of the problem as we know today but will continue to investigate. >> i guess the big question, how could this have happened and how do you reassure people at home they are safe? >> well, we have to systematically work to prevent these problems and looking into this case in particular to see what went wrong in these facilities but we know if we put in place the right preventive measures we can reduce the risk of these problems. we have no rules coming into effect just in summer, actually, we think will help in the future. >> the big question, what what went wrong, i think people are saying what went wrong, over a half billion eggs a recalled. how does this happen and do you have any idea right now what possibly did go wrong? >> well, it's a fact of life salmonella is common in animals, birds, and mammals and the challenge for food safety to take measures to prevent that bacteria from getting into food so it can happen through bad sanitary conditions, through bad pest control, [ inaudible ] control in facilities. we are looking into the actual cause in this case. we've got to take steps every step along the way in the lay houses where eggs are produced and keep eggs cool to keep bacteria from growing and consumers have to cook them and handle them properly in the home. >> -- this outbreak happened a few weeks before the rules were implemented but how will they make it safer for folks at home? >> they will set very clear standards for man obtaining proper sanitation, maintaining pest control, rodent control programs and importantly for testing for salmonella in the laying houses themselves. if we find it in the houses, actions will be taken to prevent those eggs from enter commerce. >> let me ask you this. saturday morning, people getting up right now thinking about maybe making those scrambled eggs or the only let this morning, what do you tell them, is it safe? when they hear these numbers half a billion eggs, that's a big recall. >> couple things they should check the packages in the home and check that code on the end of the package to see whether their eggs are subject to recall. they can go on food safety.gov a website that lists all the products recalled n. any event, you know, consumers need to cook eggs properly. we urge them to cook them until firm so steps consumers can take to protect themselves. >> thank you very much. we appreciate you taking the time to join us this morning. >> thank you. >> if you wonder if you have eggs recalled i want you to pick up your carton and look at the end of it, you can check the plant number. the latest recall involves eggs with the plant numbers p-1860 and p-1663. again p-1 again: if you have those cartons at home dispose of them immediately. kraeb? >> good information. thanks, chris. now to president obama on vacation the third time this summer a get away and the others were much shorter but conservative critics say the trip is sending the wrong message. our chief white house correspondent chip reed is traveling with the president in martha's vineyard, massachusetts, a beautiful scene behind you, chin. good morning. >> reporter: it sure, is rebecca. in fact, critics are saying the president is spending too much time in places like this creating an image inappropriate for these difficult economic times. president obama in casual clothes browsed at a bookstore on the first full day of his ten-day stay. white house staffers stress this is a working vacation with numerous daily briefings. >> there are a number of issues the president is following very, very closely and expecting to be kept informed about developments on those issues. >> reporter: the president under fire from some conservatives for his vacations this summer first to bar harbor, maine, last weekend to the gulf and for the first lady's trip to spain. critics say his attention should be on the dire economy and the plight of average americans. >> yes, he's been working so hard, he's tamed the economy, he's tamed iraq and the oil spill's fixed he plugged hole and gets to go to martha's vineyard. >> reporter: -- a total of 80 vacation days since he took office. but at the same point in his first term president bush had taken far more time away. 14 trips to his ranch in texas and 40 to camp david. the total, 225 days. presidents, though, are never truly on vacation. crises often arise. for example, the christmas day bomber tried to strike while president obama was vacationing in hawaii. and for president bush, hurricane katrina struck the gulf during a long stay at his ranch. white house officials say they're confident the american people understand, with such a high-pressure job, a president needs and deserves time to unwind and recharge. rebecca in. >> thank you. why has it become so hard for the man who ran such a disciplined campaign for president to control his message now and image in the white house? joining us is independent conservative amy holmes co-host of "america's morning news" and jennifer palmieri -- a liberal think tank. great to see both of you this morning. thanks for being with us. >> good morning. >> amy, starting with you, obviously the president has received some criticism here for the types of vacations he's been taking, he spent a day visiting the gulf now spending ten days in martha's vineyard. his wife, michelle, visited spain in the midst of this economic crisis. why do you think the white house is having such a tough time shaping its image right now? >> they're having a tough time because they are having a tough economic time. count me among the conservatives that does not begrudge our presidents their vacations. in fact, i wish politicians spent more time outside of the beltway and less in washington and being really in touch with the american people. martha's vineyard, maybe not exactly in touch, maybe he should be in a camper, i'd like to see that. but, i'm not one of the people that's actually attacking the president on taking some downtime. >> a lot of people, though, however are thinking that the president is falling short, his approval ratings have dropped this last week, jennifer, across the board. we saw a number of approval ratings that were particularly weak, the associated press, 49%. "time" 46%, the gallup poll only 42% approve of the president. the team from chicago that put this man in office, jennifer, does that team need to be replaced at this point in time with the approval so low? >> no, i think that the team from chicago has been dealt a very difficult hand and they're doing just fine. but the president obama's approval ratings are certainly lower than they have been in the past, but is worth noting they're higher than president clinton's approval ratings were in 1994 at the same time and even higher than president reagan's approval ratings were in 1982 at this same time. i think the reagan and obama situation are sort of good comparisons because reagan, also, had inherit ad very difficult economy. and, you know, the president's had a lot of legislative victories but the white house understands very clearly that you don't get points with the american people for legislative victories. they want to see results. the uncomfortable truth the white house is wrestling with a lot of these policies they've enacted take time for people to see results in their everyday lives and i think, you know, the economy used to shed 600,000 jobs a month with obama took office and adding jobs each months, not as many as they would like but the economy is slowly recovering. but, they understand there's a frustration that exists until people see these changes really take effect and that's just going to take some time. >> amy, why do you think they were able to stay so on point throughout the campaign and now it looks like the administration is really missing the mark? >> well, there's a big difference between campaigning and governing and when you are campaigning, you can stay on message with that close team from chicago, you know, hope and change. but once you get into government, you're actually dealing with this huge array. >> panoply? >> panoply, thank you, huge array of issues. where i might disagree with jennifer in terms of the obama-reagan comparison, obama came in with much higher approval so his fall-off, the drop-off, has been much more dramatic than what ronald reagan faced and i think also president obama has weigh wade into such a diverse range of issues most recently the ground zero mosque he's muddled his own message what se trying to accomplish. we can also look at his policies, even barney frank, the liberal from massachusetts said it was quote-unquote dumb of this administration to promise their stimulus bill would keep unemployment below 8%, we're at 9.5. the democratic party itself is like shooting within the circle as to their own message and this president and advisers telling them this fall run do, not walk away from president obama. >> jennifer, why isn't the obama administration keeping the focus number one on the jobs picture in this country? >> i think when the president is out in the country, as he does probably a couple days a week, that is what he's talking about. and they have taken a lot of steps in the beginning of the administration to stabilize the economy and i think that's the reason you don't see the approval ratings falling off worse because people understand that he did bring us back from the brink of a depression. and they also understand and the polling reflects this it takes more than 18 months to get out of as a big of a hole we had in economy. i think people are frustrated but understand why this is so difficult for the president to get out of. >> thanks so much to both of you for being with us. >> thank you. for another look at the morning's top stories let's turn it to jeff standing by at the newsdesk. >> good morning, everyone. late last night the palestinians agreed to a new round of peace talks with israel brokered by the u.s. the secretary of state announced friday the talks will begin in washington september 2nd. the goal is a deal between israel and palestinians within a year. the last negotiations between the two sides ended 20 months ago. general david petraeus says the conflict in afghanistan could end when afghan officials and taliban agree to negotiate he told katie couric the u.s. wants the talks to take place but can't force them. >> we're not the ones calling the shots. and, at the end of the day, those who will determine whether reconciliation goes forward or not are those who lead the afghan government. >> general petraeus said he does not expect the taliban to reconcile with the afghan government anytime soon. the key sponsor of islamic cultural center and mosque near ground zero says dropping plans to build it is not an option. daisy kahn promoting the controversial project with her husband -- says the center will promote moderate islams. critics say it is insensitive to place it two blocks from the former world trade sfr. cleaning up in northeastern wisconsin after a severe thunderstorm dropping hail the size of golf balls flooded most streets in downtown green bay and in new london the mayor declared a state of emergency after straight-line winds caused stens sdib damage there. 15 minutes past the hour right now. mr. lonnie quinn, how are you, sir. >> doing fine, my friend. the story about green bay, they get a better today but the strong storms are pushing the ohio valley. let's talk about the weather headlines as we see them a sizzler in the southern plains like oklahoma, the calla lilys. high and dry for the rockies. here's your big radar pictures. high pressure for the northeast, high pressure around the rocky mountains, in between we have the storms. if we can zoom in tight you find them now are east of chicago. that's where they will stay today and firing up more so going through the day. from jonesboro to indianapolis to detroit to alpena, heavy downpours, heavy -- local downpours. here's a closer looking at the weather for your weekend. make it a great day. didn't spend a lot of time talking about the northeast which catches a beautiful day so martha's vineyard, the president. >> he's in luck. >> perfect day for him. >> so are we. >> one of the best in the summer. >> are you following the economy right now? >> yes. >> we've followed it for you. i'm glad. i'm glad you have but for those of you who haven't or wonder what's going on, up next we'll take a look at the week that was, more people are out of work, they are borrowing from their retirement accounts, when is the economic news going to get better? >> lonnie has a lot on his plate. later an disturbing secret and possible connection to the creator of "peter pan" the latest on this strange story. this is "the early show" here on cbs. a brand new segment the week that was, a look at the week's big story and what it means you to, this week we tackle the economy on for that bring in senior editor of bloomberg business week magazine. great to have you here. >> nice to be here. >> a big one for economic reports. number one the jobs report showing that half a million new people filed their unemployment claims in the following week, in the week behind us. is this signalling a double-dip recession? do we expect more weakness ahead? >> it's a big fear and it was a very disappointing number because, obviously, people are hoping the unemployment rate goes down. it -- so, the highest jobless claims we've seen in a number of months, what they're worried about now, we will have a double-dip. what is happening companies are not hiring people and more importantly are starting to lay off again. that's a big concern. >> the numbers are moving in the wrong direction, also moving in the wrong direction in the manufacturing sector. we got some data from the philadelphia reserve this week that pointed to for the first time in a year a contraction in manufacturing, of course the sector that really led us out of the recession. do we expect more negativity like this in the future? >> i think we do but what happened was we had a bit of a bubble because people had let their inventories get so low, they were starting to build it up again, why, because they thought americans would start spending. so a lot of this goes back to the fact we're not spending so now very skittish, letting things lie, again tied to jobs but means we are not producing as much because we don't think people will buy. >> speaking of that not spending people are taking money in record numbers out of their 401(k) retirement accounts. are we going to see more like that. >> i think that's a big concern. americans have two sources of wealth. we have our homes and retirement savings. when people start to tap into their retirement savings that's a real worry because one of the big concerns obviously sorlt is under strain and you need people to have those resources. that's a big concern and i think something the government will turn its attention to. >> of course we also learned about social security in the week that was in the fact that it's basically going to run out by 2037. >> i know. expect the retirement age to keep moving up. essentially if you are able to work there will be an expectation you will work but the real thing is you have to take control of your own retirement. that's the issue when people start to tap into those savings because the 401(k), that's the bucket you have for yourself and you're supposed it keep that pretty sacred until you reach the retirement age. >> on top of that, in the week that was, we learned the deficit, 1.3 thrill yon dollars, even more than that in this year. what kind of projections are we going to be looking at in the weeks ahead and what can be done to really help this economy from unraveling again? >> well, the deficit is not as bad as it was last year. and right now, the issue that the government has to face is you really -- you can cut your spending and obviously you can raise taxes. raising taxes in this environment's very sensitive. we've heard a lot about the tax cuts and what's going to happen there. and you have to keep continuing spending. we've got jobless benefits. we've got stimulus in the economy. so, the issue is we're probably going to see high deficits for a while. the question is how are we going to pay for it? we'll have to either reduce our spending or raise taxes to brace yourself. >> quickly, we have the consumer confidence today the today and gdp data. what's the significance and what will we see? >> i think consumer confidence because consumers make up 70% of the xhif, so much is sentiment a. lot of the reason we're not spending, we're scared to. many people have jobs, the issue is they are nervous about the economy and people are looking for that right now, when the americans feel better and get out there and shop. >> thanks for being with us this morning. >> thank you. >> up next we'll walk the dog and go around the world as we go "under the radar." it's fun for everyone, n ♪ ♪ yes! ♪ look, they fit! oh my gosh, are those the jeans from last year?

>> we have control over ourselves, to some extent. and there are certainly ways that you can stop a bad habit, for example. one of the things that the first you should do if you want to stop a bad habit, which probably comes out of your biology and your background is write out a plan. >> write it down, make sure you know where you're going with it this. >> yeah, make a plan and write it down. and look at all the stumbling blocks. say you are a person always late to work looking at your blackberry. put it someplace so you can't look at it. if you don't want to slip, don't go into slippery places and write a journal out, keep a daily log of what you did and didn't do. >> so you can really track what you're doing and your changes along the way. i want to come to the environment, because you mentioned how significant a role environment plays in the formation of a personality. >> right. >> so, if you are trying to change something, what do you need to do with your environment?

>> i think the relationship was more likely just in philip markoff's head. he had obvious affection for her. the belief is he wrote her name on there and then killed himself as a way to prevent her having to go through a protracted trial. and that was the one thing in his life that he still had going for him was -- and she had stayed loyal to him for some weeks after his arrest. it was his way of saying good-bye, i believe. >> also, the word "pocket" was scrawled. do we have any idea what that meant? >> so strange. it's believed that was a pet name the two had they shared. >> mar ya, let me ask you exactly how decommit suicide? i know there have been reports as to exactly how he took his own life. >> at this point the cause of death appears blood lost and as fis indication and authorities say by cutting the carotid artery and severing major blood vessels in his arms, wrists and ankles. as a final act he put a bag over his head he cinch with gauze and covered himself and the bag allowed him to basically asphyxiate to speed up the death process. that's what that move suggests. >> was there any indication he was suicidal. i know when he was first incarcerated there was but in the months since, did they just kind of let their guard down. >> well, according to the suffolk county sheriff who runs the jail he didn't exhibit any signs of being suicidal. he had been on suicide watch, as you said, a couple of days after he was arrested. they placed him on suicide watch because there were some marks on his neck that seemed caused by a shoestring and they didn't like those marks and put him on suicide watch but three weeks later a psychiatrist decided he should be taken off and since then hadn't been up. the time leading up to his suicide, he didn't give any indication according to the sheriff's office he would have done this to himself. >> peter, let me ask you, they are to do rounds every half hour to check on prisoners. did they let their guard down, some malfeasance on their behalf? >> there is an allegation they didn't do their job. they are supposed to check on the prisoners once every 30 minutes and about eight hours passed between the time we know that light was turned off in his cell and he was discovered dead. this is a big fight among the people, the protagonists in this is a gentleman, a councilman who once attempted to run for sheriff. so, some politics are at play here but, it is believed that someone did not do their job properly. >> maria, let me ask you, any reaction from the families, have any step forward yet? >> the family of her stepped up and said they only blame philip markoff for the suicide and nobody else. their reaction to the suicide has been, basically, dismay, disappointment because they really wanted a trial. they feel this is just something else that's been taken away from their family because they really wanted this opportunity to face him in court and have him face these allegations. >> peter, do you think -- do the victims, is this justice served for them or do they feel as though -- not the justice they really wanted. >> this isn't the justice they wanted. they wanted him to be found guilty of this, so there was never any doubt in the public's mind whether it be shame, guilt, humiliation he decided to take his life, it was a final cruel blow to this family. >> all right. thank you very much. we appreciate it. go before the summer ends?
