damascus meeting president assad. more than 06 people were killed today in fighting across syria. israel launched air strikes against suspected militants in gaza again today. it is the second day in a row. at least 15 palestinians are reported killed. more than 20 others injured. a palestinian authority spokesman blames israel for ramping up violence in the region. israel says the air strikes targeted terrorists who attacked civilians near gaza. in washington state, a search is on for a suspect who allegedly shot a female deputy and stabbed a judge before fleeing. the incident began yesterday afternoon in a courthouse in a small town south of seattle. >> whether i went to assist the deputy, she had a weapon. and a knife or something. and he was stabbing at her. i got the gun away from the deputy and went pop pop. turned and looked at me and then

he went out the door with the gun in his hand. >> police still have -- don't have a clear motive for the attacks. mississippi's attorney general says he's looking for options this after the state supreme court upheld more than 200 pardons granted by former governor haley barbour. attorney general jim hood says he wants to put a measure before mississippi voters to amend the state's constitution on how governors hand out pardons. right now to the race for the white house. kansas is the latest gop battleground with caucuses there just wrapping up. 40 delegates are at stake. cnn political director mark preston joining us from washington. mark, any results or how soon? >> reporter: well, i'll tell you what, i do have numbers coming in. let's go right to the board and take a look at them and show you how rick santorum is doing so well right now. look at those numbers right there. rick san toreup at 54% right now followed by newt gingrich and

mitt romney at 17%. ron paul at 11%. and if you see the numbers are slowly ticking in right now, let me tell you where this vote is coming from and what we're looking for. right now this vote is coming from rural areas in the central and western part of the state. we haven't seen anything come in from the eastern part of state yet. our decision team in washington is specifically looking at johnson county. they suspect that if mitt romney were to make up the distance between what he has now between him and rick santorum, he would need to do very well in these big populous areas such as kansas city. that's what we're watching the vote right now. you can see we're up over 30% at this point. it keeps ticking in. it keeps ticking in. obviously stay with us. we'll give you the latest results in the kansas caucus. >> meantime in, some of the other caucuses where the numbers are in, it appears that mitt romney did particularly well. >> he did. he woke up to 18 delegates in hand. what he did is he won nine delegates from guam and nine

delegates from the north mariana islands. he sent his son matt out there to rally support for him. it was worth the cost of the plane ticket and a couple hotel nights. but i tell you what, this all comes down to delegates. you need 1144 to win the republican presidential nomination every delegate counts right now. so those 18 that mitt romney won from these two territories vae, very, very big for him. >> all right. thanks so much, mark preston. appreciate that. check back with you. and, of course, you want to join us every sunday afternoon at 4:00 eastern time. we want to dedicate an entire hour to the presidential contenders in the 2012 election. u.s. employers continue to ramp up hiring. the latest figures from the u.s. labor department show a total of 227,000 jobs created in february. it's the third straight month of gains above the 200,000 mark. the unemployment rate didn't fall, however. but it also didn't increase

holding steady at 8.3%. and the private sector continues to lead the way with 233,000 new jobs in his weekly address. president obama touted private firms which have added jobs every month since march 2010. >> more companies are choosing to bring jobs back and invest in america. manufacturing is adding jobs for the first time since the 1990s. and we're building more things to sell to the rest of the world. stand for three proud words, made in america. it's not just that we're building stuff. we're building better stuff. the engine parts manufactured here will go into the next generation planes that are lighter, faster, and more fuel efficient. that last part is important. because whether you're paying for a plane ticket or filling up your gas tank, technology that helps us get more miles to the gallon is one of the easiest ways to save money and reduce

our dependence on foreign oil. >> but some republicans say it will take more than jobs to spark a turn around in the u.s. economy. >> as a nation, what progress has been made to balance our annual budget deficit? have any real spending reductions been proposed by the democratic majority in the senate? has president obama made any real attempts to reduce spending? all we see are budgeting games. the american people are growing tired of the constant pleas for tax increases from this administration. long before any real proposals appear for spending reductions. >> the u.s. labor department says less than half of the signature million jobs lost during the recession has been recovered so far. the unthinkable happening on more than one occasion in the united states. thousands of people forced to be sterilized.

decades ago forced sterile ya ization was legal. 60 years later, one of the victims is speaking out. here is senior medical correspondent elizabeth cohen. >> reporter: 1945, california's sonoma state home. charlie filet, a 14-year-old ward is singing in a field when he is ordered inside. >> first he shot me with some kind of medicine.

first deaden my nerves. and then the next thing i heard was snip snip and that was it. >> did they tell what you they were doing to you? >> no. >> they didn't have to tell him. he knew. a sterilization by force. >> how did you know what it was? >> well, because, susan, there's been others in there that had it before me. >> reporter: the other boys at the home had warned him how much it would hurt. >> when they did this side here, it felt like they were pulling any whole insides out. >> reporter: the 1930s through the 1950s was the heyday of the movement. the goal, to rid the country of the feeble minded, defectives. and it wasn't some fringe or secretive program. it was well known and paid for about it states where practiced. entire families labelled ship lists, degeneral rats, 60,000 men and women, boys and girls

sterilized. some living at home, others like filet in state institutions. his parents were alcoholics and couldn't care for him and his sist sister. california was in the league of its own. the golden state's sterilized 20,000 people, more than twice as many as the next state, virginia, and a full third of the nation's total. it was led by california's elite including at the time the president of stanford university and the publisher of "los angeles times." the efficiency of california's program didn't go unnoticed. in the 1930s, the nazi party in germany was so impressed it asked for advice and californians leading the program were only too happy to help. so you sent this book to the nazis. >> yes. they did. >> so the nazis used this book as a model for their sterilization program? >> absolutely. germany used california's program as the chief example

that this was a working successful policy. >> reporter: california the leader in forced sterilizations but not a leader in making amendments to victims. a few hundred survivors are still alive. but the state has offered no changes. he said he can't even get a politician to talk to him, not even his own state representative who refused an interview request from cnn. his friend, a nursing student, shows me letters he's written to no avail on his behalf do you think the state of dal call wants to forget about this, forget it ever happened? >> honestly, i think they're just waiting -- this sounds so cynical -- i think they're just waiting for the victims to die and forget this whole thing ever happened. >> reporter: compare that chilly response to the state of north carolina. >> the state of north carolina is a partner with you in trying to break awareness --

>> the governor invited sterilization victims to the capitol, heard their stories, apologized personally, set up a task force to help them and recommended that each victim receive $50,000 in reparations. in california, just a statement of apology by governor gray davis in 2003 saying in part it was a sad and regrettable chapter in the state's history and it is one that must never be repeated again. an apology from the governor, is that enough? >> no. no. it's a start. but it's only a start. these people deserve to be compensated, just like any other victim. >> reporter: keeping them honest, i want to california to get answers from the state's leaders. >> we've been calling and e-mailing your office for a long time now. governor edmond brown wouldn't talk to us but did send a statement regretting the harm done to victims. we asked again about his policy on reparations. his office told us, we have nothing more to add.

we sought out another politician we've been trying to contact, assembly speaker john perez. >> reporter: can we speak to him? >> he's actually tied up with meetings right now. >> his spokesman. >> this is a issue that i'm just personally learning about. i'm looking into it. >> reporter: senate majority leader ellen corbin wouldn't talk to us either. her spokesman, andrew lamar. >> whether was it published? >> reporter: 2003. why hasn't anything happened since then? >> nothing. >> he has lung cancer and just celebrate the his birthday if the hospital. he said he would use any money he got to buy a place of his own and live out his last few years independently tragically aware that the policy worked exactly as intended. he has no children. >> i'm on my last days. >> there are no more last

filets? >> everything's died. >> reporter: whether he and other victims will get justice or just die away is up to politicians in california. elizabeth cohen, cnn, sacramento, california. and a grim anniversary tomorrow, the deadly earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster in japan.

a documentary about hunger in america is getting a lot of buzz at austin's south by southwest festival this week. we talk with the celebrity chef who inspired it in this week's fortune brainstorm.

>> food deserts, let's complain that. these are urban areas -- >> and rural areas. >> where quality fresh food is not readily available. >> where fresh food is not available. the only option is to buy junk food and highly processed food. that is kaucausing the obesity problem. that is the flip side of hunger. it's not that people are overeating. >> which is the opposite of the way it used to be. it used to be that poor people were skinny. >> right. >> now we have poor people that put on more weight because they're eating the wrong foods. >> exactly. cheap foods are not healthy. >> and that extends to health care problems because a lot of these people develop diabetes. >> exactly right. if you want to fix the problem, experts say that about $20 billion will fix the problem. >> what's the best fix for it? >> i think the best fix for it, it's a combination of really get down to it, it's chaging the poverty level. there is not a president out there that will change that poverty level f we look at to qualify for food stamps or snap

dollars, you have to make under $28,000. that's not enough to get by. it's changing the poverty level, number one. there is a political fix to this. if you look at subsidies and getting more people to back test foods. it's on so many different levels. but our mission is just to raise awareness. >> i'm glad you're doing it. thank you for being here at south by southwest. hopefully we helped you raise awareness. >> so much. apple revealing the new ipad. it goes on sale next friday. it is worth buying? our tech expert tells us next. i love that my daughter's part fish. but when she got asthma, all i could do was worry ! specialists, lots of doctors, lots of advice... and my hands were full.

i couldn't sort through it all. with unitedhealthcare, it's different. we have access to great specialists, and our pediatrician gets all the information. everyone works as a team. and i only need to talk to one person about her care. we're more than 78,000 people looking out for 70 million americans. that's health in numbers. unitedhealthcare. are you still sleeping? just wanted to check and make sure that we were on schedule. the first technology of its kind... mom and dad, i have great news. is now providing answers families need. siemens. answers. have more fiber than other leading brands.

they're the better way to enjoy your fiber. nnchts the race for the white house, caucus numbers are in for kansas. let's go to washington. our mark preston, our political director with some results. drum roll, please. mark? >> we've been waiting to find out who the kansas caucus would be. cnn is ready to make a prediction. with that prediction, rick santorum has won the kansas caucuses. he'll take away at least 20 -- now 20 of the 40 delegates that were at stake. he could win more. we have to wait to see how the vote total shakes out right now. but as you can see, he had such a commanding lead out there. 53% of the votes so far.

75% of the vote is n rick santorum scores a big victory on this saturday. something that he was hoping for. he has wind at his back as we head into tuesday and set our sights on alabama and in mississippi. fred? >> and it will be interesting. that kind of momentum is something that rick santorum's camp would want. there have been some polls that shows that he might do fairly well come mississippi and alabama. and you have to wonder when you have a result like this so close to an upcoming primary, how influential this kansas caucus just might be for him. >> yeah, absolutely. look, they're going to take this. they're going to trumpet it and harold it. they're going to try to get as much support as they can over the next 72 hours. mississippi and alabama very important for a couple reasons. one, it's because newt gingrich staked the candidacy on doing very well in the south. he won georgia. but he really needs to do well in alabama and mississippi. if not, a lot of people will be asking for him to step aside and

mitt romney has not won in the south yet. he is looking for a win if we look at the polling right now, mitt romney might have a shot at winning one of those states. but as you said, rick santorum is doing very well in the south. perhaps this kansas it is i have might push him over the edge. >> all right. on to alabama and mississippi next. thanks for the rerly results and now kansas showing a santorum win. apple has a new ipad. the tech company unveiled its latest gadget this week in san francisco. it goes on sale next friday. our tech expert was there when they rolled it out. he is joining us now from toronto. so, mark, did you like what you saw? >> i did. it's hard to look to the tremendous hype that preceded this. we could have unveiled an ipad that makes breakfast and still feel disappointed. it doesn't have all the features that we were anticipating. if you look at the ipad

following the vent, it is, without question, the best tablet on the market. primarily because of its retina display. that refers to resolution so good that the human eye can't see the individual pixels, the little dots that make it up. so four times the resolution as compared to the first two ipad models. so really just a stunning screen. it's got 4g or lte connectivity. so both at&t and verizon and select cities have, you know, wireless feeds that rival if not exceed your homes internet connection. so those are the two big callout features. there are a few others as well. i think it's a great product. but there was so much hype leading up to the event that there is always that tinge of disappointment until you touch it. the magic is always in the experience with apple products. >> so what was it like when you did get a chance to touch it? >> the first thing you notice is the great screen. photos, videos, playing games.

it's excellent. it looks super crisp. that is the first thing you notice. on the down side, the new ipad is a tad heavier. it is 1.44 pounds for the wi fi version. it doesn't sound like much compared to last year's 1.33 pound model. you do feel it. it is a little bit heavier. overall, you know, the speeds are -- we've never seen speeds this fast. it has a better camera. it's got voice dictation. it's not quik siri which is that personal assistant built into the iphone 4s. you can dictate e-mails and surf the web using your voice. does it have enough features to justify the purchase if you've been holding out on an ipod. >> and enough to keep the competition at bay a bit? >> i think so. already the ipad is the overwhelming leader in this space. 55 million ipads sold to date in less than two years. and with some analysts

predicting they'll hit 100 million units by the end of 2012. i that i apple has such a commanding lead that this product is good enough to hold off, to stave off the competition. and there's a lot of competition. the kindle fire is only $200 compared to the $499 ipad. you know, some sam sung android tablets are really amazing as well. so there is stiff competition. i still think apple, you know, that coupled with the momentum and the very clever marketing, they're going to stay the leader for a long time. >> okay. and this was the new ceo tim cook's first big product unveiling. how did he do? >> i thought he did well. he seemed very comfortable on stage for the arts. i did see him unveil the iphone 4s at apples headquarters. that was a much smaller crowd. he seemed comfortable. he is wearing an untucked button down shirt and black slacks. he didn't have that trade mark steve jobs just one more thing at the end.

though he did tease to the audience of about 300, 400 analyst that's there were big things coming from april until 2012. just, you know, maybe we were hoping for a little bit more, maybe the i tv. i thought he did a great job. >> the anticipation is still great. thanks so much. appreciate that from toronto. and for more high-tech ideas and reviews go, to cnn.com/tech and look for the gaming and gadgets tab or follow us on facebook, twitter and linkedin. >> a grim anniversary tomorrow. the deadly earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster that rocked japan next. turn left.

f fukushima plant exploded in a meltdown. this is still one of the most hazardous placed on the planet. we wore head to toe protective gear and has mat suits. and then we drove up to the world's nuclear accident in 25 years. this is our first look on the ground at the reactors. this is the heart of the nuclear problem if japan. what you're seeing over my shoulder are the reactors. there are four of them. the two that you see offer my right shoulder, those are two of the reactors that exploded in the early days of this disaster. when you take a look at the reactors, you can see that they have a long way to go. this is a year after this disaster and you can see the force of the explosion crippled those buildings. you can understand how so much radiation spewed from this point

when standing here. an army of 3,000 workers are now here in dale in shifts to control the melted fuel and contain the further spread of the radiation. inside the crisis management building, a control center monitors progress and safety 24 hours a day. the highest risk we still see is if something goes wrong with the reactors says the plan manager. the plant is in cold shutdown. the nuclear fuel needs constant cooling and the situation is far from over. the plant won't be decommissioned for at least 30 to 40 years. the challenges evident as we drive around the fukushima plant. debris mangled from the tsunami sits untouched because of radiation concerns. these blue tanks and these larger gray ones hold water con tanl natured with radiation. tepco is continuously challenged with finding more spaus for tce

water. this woman used to give tours to the public at the fukushima nuclear plant. before the accident, i explained to many people that the nuclear power plant is safe, she says. now that this has happened, i feel very sorry i ever said that. she also lived here. she's now an evacuee, uncertain of when or if she can ever return home. a year later, she and 78,000 others are the legacy of this accident, paying the price for nuclear energy goes wrong. cnn at the fukushima energy plant. once you reached one level of success, what do you do? straight ahead, two lawyers talk about volunteering in nonprofit groups and leaving the clous to follow their passions. and expe. then the world changed... and the common sense of retirement planning
