malveaux. i want to get you up to speed for friday, may 27th. secretary of state hillary clinton is in pakistan today to smooth things over with the government leaders. they are still angry over the secret u.s. raid that killed bin laden. sources say clinton told the pakistanis that american aid is on the line, unless they do more to rout out terrorists. >> today we discussed in even greater detail cooperation to disrupt, dismantle and defeat al qaeda and to drive them from pakistan and the region. we will do our part. and we look to the government of pakistan to take decisive steps in the days ahead. >> a cia forensics team will also be heading to pakistan. pakistan will let cia experts scrub osama bin laden's compound for evidence. now, the team will use sophisticated technology to look for anything hidden in the walls or the ceilings or items that are buried on the grounds. the patriot act gets a four-year extension. this was just minutes before that law was set to expire. now, congress renewed the measure late thursday after a lot of wrangling. with the president on the road in europe and the bill in washington, president obama signed by electronic robo pen to prevent any possible disruption to national security. relatives are going to go to the morgue in joplin, missouri, today to identify some of the 132 tornado victims. missouri's governor says that many of the bodies are in such bad shape that families will have to i.d. them by a tattoo or some other distinguishing feature. other remains will have to wait for dna analysis. missouri officials are now updating their list of joplin's missing. that's going to happen this hour. on thursday they put the number at 232. a judge in belgrade says the former bosnia serb military commander can be extradited to the hague to face war crimes charges. he has until monday to appeal. his attorney claims that mladic is too sick now, but five doctors who examine him say that he is fit. he is accused of ordering the massacre of 8,000 muslim men and boys during the bosnian civil war. president obama arrives in warsaw, poland, happening this hour. he met with the prime ministers of tunisia and egypt on the closing day of the g-8 summit in france. now, the group did not offer financial aid to support these new democracies, but instead they suggested international lenders could provide up to $20 billion. another $20 billion could come through gulf arab states and other sources. here's your chance to talk back. one of the big stories of the day, today we are asking is it okay for a presidential candidate to avoid the media? carol. >> they can't avoid us, what are you talking about? are you kidding me? >> everyone loves talking with us. >> oh, they love us. >> what's the question? >> the question today, though, are we getting to the point where democratic candidates talk mostly to msnbc and republicans talk mostly to fox news. former republican vice presidential candidate sarah palin told fox that candidates should watch out when it comes to, quote, the lamestream media. >> there's got to be the preparation on all the candidates' parts for those gotchas. that's what the lamestream media is known for nowadays is the gotcha trip-up questions and you just have to be prepared for it and overcome it. >> we don't know whether palin is running yet, but all signs seem to point that way. she reportedly bought a house in arizona, is hiring a new staff and she's launching that nationwide bus tour. instead of doing interviews, palin prefers to speak to the public through social media and, says cnn senior political editor mark preston, from the safety of her perch as a paid contributor at fox news. but palin isn't the only one who prefers to answer questions in more friendly surroundings. not long ago president obama refused to do interviews with fox. that didn't last. and newt gingrich wouldn't answer media questions at an event in new hampshire. but shouldn't any politician man up when it comes to the press? shouldn't they be able to handle those gotcha moments? so is it okay for a presidential candidate to avoid the media? facebook.com/carolcnn. i'll read your comments later this hour. >> i would say they probably will try, but i don't think it's possible. >> no, because newt gingrich did it just for a short time but then he started talking. talking to everybody again. >> okay. we'll see what they say. thanks, carol. here is a rundown of some of the stories that we're covering the next two hours. searching for clues now. the cia heads back to osama bin laden's compound. also prisoners released by mistake? there is a program to ease overcrowding that's putting dangerous criminals back on california streets. plus, tornado victims in missouri, a frustrating search for missing family members. >> we were told that there was no body found in the rubble and they had seen an elderly woman digging through the rubble but they don't know where she went, you know. i can't locate her anywhere. finally, scientists in italy are charged with manslaughter. they're accused of failing to predict a deadly earthquake. n. that's a coffee and two pills. the afternoon tour begins with more pain and more pills. the evening guests arrive. back to sore knees. back to more pills. the day is done but hang on... her doctor recommended aleve. just 2 pills can keep arthritis pain away all day with fewer pills than tylenol. this is lara who chose 2 aleve and fewer pills for a day free of pain. and get the all day pain relief of aleve in liquid gels. >> announcer: this past year alone there's been a 67% spike in companies embracing the cloud-- big clouds, small ones, public, private, even hybrid. your data and apps must move easily and securely to reach many clouds, not just one. that's why the network that connects, protects, and lets your data move fearlessly through the clouds means more than ever. host: could switching to geico really save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance? was abe lincoln honest? mary: does this dress make my backside look big? abe: perhaps... host: could switching to geico reon car insurance? e host: do dogs chase cats? ♪ 70's music sfx: squealing tires. a cia team gets the go ahead now to search the compound where osama bin laden was killed. now, the forensics team is going to look for any additional information that they can actually find there. i want to bring in our cnn pentagon correspondent, chris lawrence. chris, what do we know about the cia team going for this trip into the compound? what are they hoping to get out of this or find? >> they're going to be looking for anything that you maybe could not see with the naked eye. in other words, this assault team, the s.e.a.l. team that carried so much intelligence out of that compound, they were only in there for about 40 minutes. nearly half that time was spent actually searching the compound. the pakistanis then went in. but in this case, this is a forensic team that's going to go in. so in other words, they may be using things like infrared cameras to look behind the walls to see if anything was embedded in the walls, to see if anything was buried out decide the compound. we know that osama bin laden and the people that lived there burned their trash but the cia may have capabilities to even pull information off of fragments of things that have been burned. so they're looking for things that maybe aren't seen with the naked eye, even swabbing certain parts of that compound for perhaps dna evidence. >> and, chris, do we suspect that there are other people who have actually been in this compound beforehand and perhaps removed material? do they really believe that that hasn't been actually tampered with in some way? >> no, they know the pakistanis came in after the s.e.a.l. team but that's another key part of this as well, in that the pakistanis have agreed to share some of the information that they pulled out of the compound with the cia as well. >> another topic, i know that pakistan recently returned the wreckage of that u.s. chopper that had crashed during the raid. what do we know about that? have they been able to get any information? how it's being treated? can you give us anything, any update on that? >> yeah, that wreckage and what's left of it is now back here in the united states, obviously because it's a stealth technology. they're not going to talk about some of the details. but big picture, when you look at it, an administration official said today in pakistan, look, the pakistanis released the name of the cia station chief. they ordered the u.s. military to reduce the number of trainers there, all signs of perhaps some tension and friction in the relationship. but then on the other hand he said that looks to be perhaps an initial emotional gut reaction to what happened in the raid, but he said since then we asked for access to bin laden's wives. we got it. we asked that the stealth helicopter be returned, they gave it back. now we've asked to get access to the compound ourselves, and we're league all-- being allowe in. all that points to at least some signs that pakistan's intelligence service and the cia may find a good working relationship or possibility of one going forward. >> okay. chris, thank you very much. appreciate it. the former president of pakistan is accusing president obama of showing arrogance, he says, following the raid that killed bin laden. he blasted president obama saying he'd respond the same way if the opportunity arose again to take out al qaeda terrorists. on piers morgan goetonight, he d pakistanis should have carried out the raid. >> technically, legally, i think it is an irresponsible statement and i think such arrogance should not be shown publicly to the world. >> you think he was arrogant? >> oh, i think so. i think it is arrogance that we don't care. we don't care for your national opinion, we don't care for your people, we will come in and do the same thing. i mean this is -- this is arrogance. >> so how can the relationship between the united states and pakistan be repaired? well, next hour i'll speak with pakistan's ambassador to the united states about that. nasa's space shuttle program marks another milestone. we're going to go outside the international space station for a final space walk. work, building up our wireless network all across america. we're adding new cell sites... increasing network capacity, and investing billions of dollars to improve your wireless network experience. from a single phone call to the most advanced data download, we're covering more people in more places than ever before in an effort to give you the best network possible. at&t. rethink possible. @@ yet an instant classic." with sports car styling and power, plus the refinement and space of a luxury sedan, the jaguar xf is a timeless blend of performance and craftsmanship. see how jaguar outperforms the competition at jaguarperforms.com or visit your local jaguar dealer. and started earning loads of points. you got a weather balloon with points?

[ man ] so i used mine to get a whole new perspective. ♪ [ male announcer ] the new citi thankyou premier card gives you more ways to earn points. what's your story? citi can help you write it. we are following our top story here on cnnmoney.com. paypal suing google. former employees accused of stealing trade secrets for google. we are also keeping a close eye on the stock markets. the dow jones up by 66 points or so. we also are following a story here, the earthquake and tsunami in japan hurt car production in that country, but now we are really starting to see the effects here in this country. buyers here in the united states are already saying that they're seeing shortages in some new cars and we're now hearing that toyota is cutting production in south america. i want to bring in alison kosik from the new york stock exchange. what new information are we learning today? >> reporter: suzanne, we've got new numbers that show just how hard automakers were hit. you know what, the headline is pretty dour. fewer cars are being made because of the supply crunch that happened right after the disaster in japan. here's how bad it is. honda's global production fell 43% in april compared to last year. toyota is down 48% in the same month. as you mentioned, we're getting reports that toyota is temporarily slowing production in south america. nissan is also in that list. its global production fell 22% in april. most automakers are putting out these updates every few weeks because the situation is changing so much, suzanne. >> and how are the dealerships here at home coping if they don't have essentially a product to sell? >> reporter: you know what, it really is difficult for them. t the dealer that say we spoke with say they are limited in how much they can cut back because it's not like they can change the product that they can sell. they say they are cutting back on advertising but are calling this an unprecedented time for selling cars at this point. in fact one dealer that we talked with said it's really a big burden to carry. >> it's a huge responsibility. we're responsible for people and we're also responsible for making sure that people's needs are met. so, yeah, if you're asking -- let's put it this way. i don't sleep very well. >> reporter: and she's talking about the people who actually work for her sheechlt has over 100 employees and she's also active in the community and she supports local groups, but now she can't really do that because of the car shortage. she's limited in how much she can give back, how much time and money she can spend on those other things and that really bothers her. there is also some hope. toyota is saying that production is beginning to come back just a bit and honda said yesterday that production should be back to normal for most models by august. but remember, there's a two to three-month lag between production and then what the showroom floor gets, so that normal august production that i'm talking about, it really means dealers won't have a full inventory of cars until the fall. we're, of course, going to keep an eye on this and continue to update you. this will impact the kinds of cars that are out there and will impact the prices if you're out there looking for a car. >> okay, thank you. it is time to go cross country for other stories catching our attention. first stop, some 240 miles above the earth. that is where "endeavour" astronauts completed the final space walk of their mission and the last ever by space shuttle astronauts. they worked on extending the reach of the space shuttle's robotic arm. a parade of u.s. navy ships sailing up the river marks the start of fleet week in new york. it is a truibute to u.s. armed service members. fleet weekends on memorial day with a military flyover honoring those who have lost their lives in service. and in virginia, members of the army's third infantry honor america's fallen heroes. flags are placed throughout arlington national cemetery. it has been held the past 40 years before memorial day weekend. well, this weekend americans remember our fallen heroes. but for thousands of widows across the country, every day is a memorial day. taren davis lost her husband at 21 and built a sisterhood for those just like her, determined to turn their grief and their loss into triumph and survival. that's why she is this week's cnn hero. >> my husband, corporal michael davis, was killed in baghdad, iraq. you know, even four years later, people still don't really know how to react when you say, hi, i'm taren and i am a widow. after the funeral, i felt ostracized. everybody liked to write off my grief due to my young age. they say at least you're young, you can get remarried. the widows are not going to judge you laughing or tell you i'm grieving wrong. i just wanted to create what i was searching for and just hope there were others that could come and help me too. i'm taryn davis and i invite a new generation of widows to share their love, their sacrifice. >> they step outside of that comfort zone. >> his impact will continue to affect us all for the rest of our lives. >> there are moments where they can all reflect, followed by that time where they feel like they're living life to the fullest. >> my little sister wrote taryn. she didn't know how to get me through the loss so she wanted me to find other sisters. from my first event i went from feeling completely alone to not anymore at all. >> you get up that high, you see the world a different way. i think as widows, we see our life a different way when we land. >> these military widows give me new life again. >> they teach me so much and show me how far i've come and to know one day another widow will come along and they're going to be the one that's changing that widow's life. that's pretty amazing. >> the american widow project has connected almost 800 women through its online community and retreats. now, remember every cnn hero is chosen from people you tell us about, so nominate someone making a difference in your community. go to cnnheroes.com. one resident of joplin, missouri, couldn't believe what he was seeing. people showing up in his town not to help, but to rubber neck at the destruction. we're going to hear why he decides to let people know what he thought.
