3:00 am
i have been in and out of foster care for most of my life. when you move from place to place, you don't really get the same connections that your peers have. you get very insecure. you don't think that people really care about your desires and wishes. >> when i became a foster parent, i realized a lot of these children decide that it's not worth wishing anymore because it isn't going to happen. people have made promises to them that they haven't kept. do you want to take any of the babies? >> sure.
3:01 am
>> here you go. everything is brand new. i thought, how do we give them the feeling that people are out there that care about you even if you have never met them? my name is dan yell, and i have made wishes come true for thousands of foster children all over the country. anybody anywhere anytime can look at hundreds of wishes from children in foster care. working on auditioning for a play, and he needs the radio in order to practice with his audition cd. wishes are as unique as the children who make them, and so personal. isn't that beautiful? >> yes. >> these small things make an enormous difference in the life of a child. it's really just a kid being a kid. >> my wish was for a suit so that i could attend a family member's funeral. it meant a lot that someone took the time and they knew that was important. >> this looks awesome. >> when a child's wish is granted, we are assuring them their voices are being heard. >> i love you, evie. >> there is this big world out there that just wants to wrap their arms around them and
3:02 am
protect them. and we need to all step up and do that. from cnn world headquarters in atlanta, this is "early start weekend." hundreds of flights canceled. new england streets flooded, and this house, you see it there, tee teetering on the edge. the latest storm is stronger than some expected. and it's a bird, it's a plane, nope, it's another asteroid and it's scheduled to pass by earth this morning. so why does this keep happening? and are we prepared for a direct hit? and a music legend opens up about getting older, sandy devastation, and why he's on an nra enemies list. my exclusive interview with jon bon jovi.
3:03 am
it is saturday, march 9th, i'm brianna keilar in for randi kaye. >> i'm victor blackwell. first up today, sirens ringing out in afghanistan's capital. a bomb blast rocked the ministry of defense just hours after new defense secretary chuck hagel arrived in kabul on his first official trip overseas. nine people were killed. now the taliban says the suicide bombing is a message for hagel. he was not injured and is in a safe location. cnn pentagon correspondent chris lawrence is traveling with the defense secretary. he was at a briefing and says he heard the blast even though he was a ten-minute walk from it. back in the u.s., a violent storm slams the massachusetts shore. it's being called the most damaging in recent memory. look at this. that house teetheri eriteeterine
3:04 am
of the atlantic ocean and the second house fell overnight. they're on a popular vacation spot. nobody really expected this. a dozen homes right now in jeopardy, and according to the "boston globe," this one was worth $800,000. to northern connecticut where a blizzard dumped 20 inches of snow, you're looking here at the town of stafford, and heavy snow snarled traffic along i-84. local kids, though, they were fine with it. this meant snow forts, snowball fights instead of school. where is this storm going? when's in store this weekend for the rest of the country? joining us now cnn weather center meteorologist alexandria steele. is the northwest out of the woods here? >> completely. temperatures almost 50 degrees. so wonderful conditions, a lot of snow, that march sun angle
3:05 am
will melt things quickly. staffordville, connecticut, 23 inches, worcester, mass, 22.8. a history making one. foxboro, mass, 20, and new york central park coming in at 4 inches. just to show you what is high and dry, clear skies, high pressure in control, sunny conditions, warming temperatures, but we do have the next system down the pike and then one after that. so we'll talk about that, chicago a rainmaker for you. just want to show you how nice it'll be in boston and new york. temperatures in the upper 30s. going to see that tomorrow as well in boston, 50s today in new york, 50s today, as well, and then that system, just a rainmaker brings rain to boston o on monday and rain on tuesday into new york city. here's the scenario. what we've got is denver, colorado, that's where really we're going to see blizzard warnings in portions of colorado, nebraska, and kansas today. 6 to 9 inches for you in denver, colorado.
3:06 am
i-25. that's where the hazardous driving will be. big picture, we'll see beautiful conditions in the southeast, temperatures well above average, 65 in atlanta today, heading to 67 degrees tomorrow. southeast really enjoying the warmth. brianna? >> i will take it because last week i was here, i came down from d.c., i was looking up and i said, what, it is snowing, we are in march in the south. >> what, it is snowing? >> no snow, sunny skies, beautiful. >> gorgeous, alexandria, thank you very much. >> you're welcome. now to wall street where a jump in jobs numbers helped push the dow jones to another record. >> it was a fourth straight day of record closures. all those highs have some traders worried we are headed for a drop. >> it was a week for the record books after a slow start on monday, the dow surged to a rerd high on, get this, tuesday, wednesday, thursday,
3:07 am
and friday. for investors, the record doesn't mean much, but it is a reminder of how much ground we've made up. after all, the last time the blue chips were at record levels was 2007. and back then, the economy was barrelling toward the financial crisis. now the record feels much different. economic data this week all pointed to a recovery especially the big jobs report friday which showed the economy added 236,000 jobs in february. many analysts expect the rally to continue largely because the federal reserve is pumping billions of dollars of stimulus into the economy each month. some experts are wondering whether the market has come too far, too fast. >> there are more people with conviction in this rally now for understandable reasons. the market's rallied 30%, that's great, right? a lot of the major strategists thought this would be the target for the year. it's already happened in 2 1/2 months. we've come a long way without any major correction. it's a little worrying now.
3:08 am
>> there's worry about europe and upcoming budget talks in washington. but for now, brianna and victor, the bulls are running. a ten-year man hunt for osama bin laden's son-in-law is culminating in a new york courtroom steps away from ground zero. >> bin laden's former spokesman is pleading not guilty to charges of conspireing to kill americans. and susan candiotti reports, it's what he's saying outside of the courtroom that could become critical in this trial. >> reporter: victor and brianna, good morning. for years, his video messages spewing hate and dire warnings to americans after 9/11 have finally brought him to america inside a courtroom. entered the courtroom looking and acting much differently than the al qaeda spokesman so often seen next to his father-in-law osama bin laden. in new york federal court, he looked older, balding, his dark
3:09 am
beard now gray. gone was the fiery rhetoric. he quietly said yes when asked if he understood the charges and left it to his lawyer to enter his plea, not guilty. but behind the scenes, he is talking to investigators. prosecutors dropping a bombshell. revealing he made a 22-page statement after his arrest. possibly powerful evidence. >> prosecutors always want statements from a defendant. so the fact he gave such an extensive one has the potential to be extremely incriminating at the trial. >> reporter: what did he tell investigators? they are insane. he was arrested overseas february 28th and flown to the u.s. from jordan march 1st, a few week before his arraignment. he's mostly been under house arrest in iran since 2002. and experts say likely not actively involved in al qaeda operations. bin laden himself bragged on tape the 9/11 plans were so
3:10 am
secretive he didn't even know about them. >> he points to his spokesman and says we didn't clue him in. so surely a defense lawyer will be using that in the future case. >> reporter: despite ongoing criticism from republicans that abu gates should be tried before a military tribunal in guantanamo the administration stands by the decision. >> this is somebody held accountable for his crimes and that will be done in accordance with the laws and values of this country. >> reporter: some 9/11 families say they're glad someone so prominent in al qaeda is being prosecuted. >> let's get these trials going to new york city, all the people that were affected that day can go see the trials and that's where they should be, in new york city. >> reporter: and that's where the trial is. about a mile away from ground zero where jim rich's son and thousands of others lost their lives. victor and brianna? >> thank you.
3:11 am
let's head overseas now. and the election to pit the next leader of the vatican will be next tuesday. they'll start with a mass and then enter the sistine chapel and stay there until the next pope is chosen. pope benedict xvi resigned last month, you know that. within the last hour, crews finished installing a special chimney to the top of the sistine chapel as they do for every papal conclave. we'll know when they've decided on the next pope when the white smoke comes out of that chimney. startling impackaages comin of north korea. take a look at this. you see people nearly weeping we motion and troops run toward kim jong-un apparently in a near frenzy to honor him. they go waist deep into the water. they run right in.
3:12 am
it happened during his recent visit to the border with south korea. north korea, meanwhile, is ramping up the threats. it's testing a dangerous new missile that has a potential range of 3,000 miles and it's even warning of a preemptive nuclear strike. and from overseas to outer space, if you've ever wanted to see a comet without a telescope or binoculars, you might get your chance next week. it could be visible with the naked eye in the northern hemisphere on tuesday just after sunset. it's been visible with a telescope for a while now in the southern hemisphere. scientists say naked-eye comets happen once every five to ten years. i think it makes a space geek out of all of us. >> we're all space geeks when you think about the asteroids, the meteors and the comet. >> that's right. if the comet isn't enough for you, we do have another asteroid headed our way. >> yes, we do. it won't hit us. but just ahead, we will tell you

3:16 am
it's happening again. a big space rock the size of a city block is expected to head our way next hour. but don't worry because there's no danger of it hitting us. the closest it will come to earth is about 605,000 miles, that's about 2 1/2 times the distance from the earth to the moon. lawrence krause is live from london with us now. he's the author of the book, a universe from nothing. okay, lawrence, we know that this meteor exploded over russia just a month ago last month. and now we have this, and there was an asteroid last weekend. how common are these objects?
3:17 am
is this just sort of a weird time? and should we be concerned about a potential impact? >> well, it's not particularly weird. these things happen all the time. we're able to see them better, we're seeing more of them. but objects -- lots of meteors are hitting the earth every second. about 100 tons worth of material is falling on the earth every day. this one meteor that went over russia was a rare event once every century. the asteroid we're now seeing, i think it's about 1 million tons. that kind of object impacts on the earth about once every million years. and therefore, you know, i don't think we have to worry about that. and it's neat that we can see them. but in fact, one day there will be a big object heading towards us and about every 100 million years there's an object that's large enough as it once did 65 million years ago to wipe out the dinosaurs. and the interesting thing is,
3:18 am
because we can now see them well in advance, we might be able to see it well enough in advance and do something about it and deflect it before it hits the earth. >> i want to know if this object, the size of a city block were to hit earth, how much damage are we talking about? >> well, we're talking about a huge amount of damage. not enough to destroy civilization or wipe out the species. it would be enough to cause incredible climate change and it would probably -- it's hard to estimate, it would be like many, many, nuclear weapon explosions. it would be severe damage and depending upon where it hit. if it hit in the ocean, it could cause a tsunami. it would kill a lot of people, but not wipe out the species. >> you said there could be time to divert an asteroid. first off, i might be concerned because we didn't know about this one -- we found out on sunday. that's not a lot of lead time. what would you need to do to divert an asteroid?
3:19 am
and i'm assuming you're going to tell me it's not some sort of intervention that involves bruce willis and ben affleck. >> it's not that different. the point is -- it's true, we didn't see this one until sunday. this one, even though it would cause a significant amount of devastation is not large enough to be planet threatening. the ones large enough to be planet threatening 10 kilometers across or something like that, those we could see a few years in advance, probably. and there are various ways, including just sending a rocket ship landing on it and running your rocket engine just a little bit. you just have to divert it a little bit before it misses the earth. it's not quite science fiction. and it's important we do that. important we have a monitoring system that can look at all near earth objects. this one is not anywhere near as close as the asteroid a few weeks ago. it's farther away than the moon. >> it's fascinating stuff, a little scary. lawrence krause, i will tell you
3:20 am
you make me feel a little more secure. please stick around, we'll be keeping an eye on the asteroid as it's expected to fly past us next hour. victor? >> all right, we're all good. america's open house closes its doors. rand paul goes on and on and on. and we make up a word. here's a look at the week that was. >> a real live filibuster on the floor of the senate. >> what the who? it was a nonevent until ron paul's boy rand. >> the white house says they're forced to shut down white house tours. >> this is really going to cut into joe biden's balloon animal business. >> it is a windy, snowy, rainy mess in the northeast right now. >> the biblical end of days is here. >> a fantastically long filibuster, no more tickets for white house tours, and the clever name for some wicked weather. >> virginia and washington, d.c. being hammered by another massive winter storm. >> oh, this wasn't just any
3:21 am
storm. >> they were calling it the snowquester. >> the snowquester. >> maybe not. >> most people saw slush and rain. >> that clever word play combining snow from the storm and, well, you get the rest. >> i think this is fantastic and ridiculous or fantasticulous. >> i arrive today to filibuster john brennan's nomination for the cia. >> and this is just the beginning of what would be a -- >> remarkable 12:52. >> in that time he talked, drank, ate, invoked alice in wonderland. >> no, no, said the queen. >> even managed to get jane fonda in the conversation. >> you going to drop a drone missile on jane fonda? >> easy, jane.
3:22 am
>> starting this weekend, all white house tours are canceled. >> wait. what? >> the tours are being canceled until further notice because of budget cuts. >> prompting people to ask -- >> really, is that the only way to save money? >> tonight, the markets make history. >> yep, the dow rallied and then the following day -- >> the dow hit a second new high. >> yeah, there's a positive way to look at it. >> keep the party hat handy. >> then there's this. >> only took wall street and the financial industry 5 1/2 years to self-repair the gaping wound they self-inflicted. >> speaking of jon stewart, he's headed out on hiatus. zblf off for 12 weeks starting in june. >> don't think he's going to lounge around. >> it's to direct his first movie. >> and not as his friend stephen colbert says taking a job -- >> ruling the country of

all good things must come to an end. and the best start in nhl history now over for the chicago blackhawks. joe carter is here with more on this morning's bleacher report. >> i know. buzz kill this morning. 24 games, chicago blackhawks had not lost in regulation in 24 games. they were enjoying the best start in league history, heck, hockey was enjoying it, but then they skidded into the mile-high city, maybe it was the altitude, the schedule, they looked slow, sluggish. the colorado avalanche this season have stunk. they've absolutely struggled all year except for last night because they scored four goals in the second period, took a 5-1
3:28 am
lead, it was too much for the blackhawks to overcome. chicago would go on to lose 6-2, the streak is now over at 24. but the miami heat, they clearly have their own streak going. and the pressure not getting to lebron james. i love this play right here. a ball's going out of bounds and he tries to save it from going out of bounds and grabs the microphone. doing his best broadcaster impersonati impersonation. the 76ers hung around for about three quarters, little bit into the fourth quarter, miami pulled away and ended up winning the game by nine, the heat are the first team in the nba to clinch a playoff. they tie the clippers for the longest win streak this season. >> we're a better ball club and we know what we're striving for. we want to continue to get better each and every day, each and every practice, film session, and in the game. we're also building toward the world championship. we won't get complacent knowing
3:29 am

3:38 am
pleasure because just being with him was enough for me. he enjoyed that kind of stuff. >> by midweek, it was the jury asking the questions. more than 200 in all delivered by the judge. they started with this zinger. >> why did you put the camera in the washer? >> i don't have memory of that. i don't know why i would do that. >> reporter: the camera contained pictures of alexander in the shower. this one taken two minutes before his death. photo time stamps put arias at alexander's house at the time of the killing. and what about arias' failing memory the day alexander died? she has testified she shot alexander first and doesn't remember anything after that. here in court, her defense lawyer tried to raise even the slightest doubt that it was arias who stabbed alexander n r nearly 30 times and sliced his throat so deep, his head was nearly cut off.
3:39 am
>> do you have any memories of slashing mr. alexander's throat? >> no. >> you -- when you were asked on cross-examination if you did that, do you recall telling us that you did? >> yes. >> was that a recollection? or a logical assumption on your part? >> it was definitely not a recollection. >> the jury also wanted to know this. >> why did you place travis' body back in the shower. >> i could only speculate because i don't remember. >> and this. >> why is it that you have no memory of stabbing travis? >> i can't really explain why my mind did what it did. maybe because it's too horrible. >> when the jury's questions were done, arias' defense lawyer
3:40 am
stepped in yet again to try to repair the damage. >> so, jodi, that is the ultimate question. why should anybody believe you now? >> i lied a lot in the beginning. i understand that there will always be questions, but all i can do at this point is say what happened to the best of my recollection. and if i'm convicted, then that's because of my own bad choices in beginning. >> bad choices that could cost her her life. randi kaye, cnn, phoenix. >> so, jodi arias, domestic abuse victim or cold-blooded premeditated killer? decide for yourself in an "ac 360" special sex, lies and audiotape, that's the name of it, the jodi arias trial, tonight at 9:00 eastern on cnn. seven days dominated by
