good morning. i'm brianna keilar in for brandy kay. thanks for starting your morning with us. first up, the cardinals who will choose the next spiritual leader of the roman catholic church are spreading out to celebrate masses. tuesday, they will all be in one place. the vatican. cnn's jonathan mann walks us through the top secret process to pick the new pope. >> it's the oldest enduring electoral system in the world. many of its traditions have been unchanged for centuries. the conclave, which literally means locked with a key, dates back to a time when cardinals were locked in until they chose a new pope. now, it's the world that's locked out figuratively speaking, as much of the conclave will take place behind closed doors. the gathering begins with a morning mass in st. peter's basilica. in the afternoon, the 115 voting cardinals, those under 80 years old, en certificate the sistine chapel where they will each take on oath of secrecy.
5:04 am
the penalty, automatic ex-communication. after the oath, preparations are made for the election taken by secret ballot. lots are drawn for three cardinals to collect ballots, three more to count the votes and three others to review the results. printed on the ballots, the words that mean i-elect as supreme pontiff. each elector writes the name of a candidate on the lower half of the ballot. cardinals are not allowed to vote for themselves. in order of seniority, the cardinals take their ballots to the altar. then the ballot is sgropd a chal is. the ballots will be tallied and the results read aloud. more than two-thirds majority is needed to dee layer a winner. in this had case can 77 votes. if there is no winner, there is another vote. if there is still no winner, two more votes are scheduled for the afternoon. voting continues, up to four ballots each day, until there is
5:05 am
a winner. the ballots are burned after each session in an incinerator inside the chapel sending off the most famous smoke signal in the world. if there's no winner, they're burned with a chemical that gives off black smoke telling the crowd in st. peter's square that a pope has not been selected. when there is a winner, the smoke is white giving the sign they've chosen a new pope to lead the church. >> dan rivers is in rome not far from the vatican, he's joining us now. dan, are there any frontrunners yet? do we get a sense of who might be in the lead? >> reporter: it's an a incredibly wide open field. there are a number of names being talked about as possible candidates. but frankly, i think this is according to the experts, one of the most wide open conclaves for many, many years. one of the favorites, i think it's fair to say, at the moment
5:06 am
is angelo scola, the archbishop of milan. clearly, the italian cardinals are hoping for another italian pope after we've had a polish and german pope for the last few years. in terms of one of the african candidates, peter turk son, the archbishop from ghana, he's a possibility. i think it's a little more unlikely, but he's certainly been given fairly favorable odds. timothy dolan, the new york archbishop, i don't think he's a seriously likely candidate, but he does have a lot of influence in this. the american cardinals have the biggest block of votes of the 115 cardinals, 11 in all. so his thoughts and feelings on who should become pope will come to bear in this competition. perhaps one of the other ones worth mentioning is the bishop offen a who has been particularly outspoken on the
5:07 am
sex scandal and would be seen as being a bit more of a reformer in the church going forward. >> it is interesting. some have said the church maybe needs to pick someone from the developing world where the catholic ranks are growing. we'll be looking to see approximate they do that, dan. benedict xvi was a conservative guy. do you think they go a new way or play it safe? >> i think the big challenge for the catholic church during this conclave or after this conclave for the new pope is going to be to reform and tackle this sex scandal that has rocked the church for more than ten years. case after case being uncovered. we've been looking into one in the last few days where it's clear that cardinals and those higher up in the vatican were aware of pedophilia going on.
5:08 am
the priests simply move to parish to parish and is free to abuse children. that's one of the principal challenges for whoever takes on the position of pope. but you're right, the split really is between those who want someone with strong curial connections, meaning connections with the bureaucracy of the vatican with the civil service, if you like, or the vatican and those who want someone who is much more of a reformer, who is much more a leader who can really shake things up and tackle this scandal, something that pope benedict xvi is accused of failing to do. >> it all gets under way on tuesday, dan rivers in rome. thanks for that. in 30 minutes, our senior analyst, john allen will join us from rome as well fort search for the next pope. nelson mandela is back in the hospital.

some sports now. the world baseball classic turned ugly when a full-scale brawl broke out during a game between canada and mexico. joe carter has the video in this morning's bleacher report. they really get into it, joe. >> they sure do. this started because team mexico thought that team canada was running up the score on them.
5:16 am
in the video, you'll see in the ninth inning, canada has a lead. mexico was not happy that canada's strategy was to add more runs to that already six-run lead. what do they do? they decided to intentionally hit one of the players with a fastball square in the back. that's when things got especially heated. both teams run on to the field pushing and shoving, quickly turning into punches thrown by both teams. in all, seven players were eject ejected. canada's managers explained they weren't trying to score more runs to embarrass mexico. they were doing it because of the point system in place at the classic. they felt like their team, team canada had to earn more points to have a greater chance of advancing to the next round. >> what happened tonight is because of the rulings that they have. regular baseball during the season, you never see that happening. but because of the run differential that they have, we play it like a 0-0 game the

5:19 am
seriousness of the charges and what capriati could be facing. >> florida has one. strictest stalking laws in the country. most places it's a misdemeanor charge. a minor charge where you face probation or community service. in florida, they have a felony provision where you actually can be sentenced to prison in a particularly serious case. we don't mow what's involved in this case, whether would arise to that level or if charges will be formally brought. it's not a good place to be charged with stalking. >> paul, apparently, her ex-boyfriend is alleging at least half a dozen incidents of stalking. if, say, his lawyers are able to establish a pattern here, will that be damaging? >> yes. that will be highly damaging to him. there are claims being made by the boyfriend that there have been seven prior reports of stalking-like behavior, phone calls, text messages.
5:20 am
there's also a claim that this wound up in front of a florida judge once before when apparently the boyfriend sought a restraining order. so there appears to be a long history here of things going on between these two people. we have to see what they amount to. >> jennifer capriati's attorneys responded to the claims saying the current facts being circulated by mr. bran an are an overexaggeration and the police report is one sided in his favor because they failed to get her side of the story. we will make sure that ms. capriati's side of the story is fully conveyed and she will be vindicate the from the charges. deadly droughts, record setting temperatures. why a new study says we should expect a whole lot more extreme weather. ♪music plays thank you orville and wilbur... ...amelia...

[ male announcer ] engine light on? come to meineke now for a free code scan read and you'll say...my money. my choice. my meineke. here is a frightening discovery. by the year 2100, our planet will be hotter than it's been before the last ice age. more than 130,000 years ago. that's less than 90 years from now. according to scientists from harvard and oregon state university who studied the planet's temperature back to the ice anyone, it's getting hotter. it's happening fast and we are to blame. they say the climate has gone from one of the coldest in the last 11,000 years to one of its hottest in just a century. that's why the planet that's -- well, the planet should be getting cooler. marshall shepherd is president of the american meteorological society or the ams.
5:25 am
you've probably heard of it. you didn't work on this study. but you're certainly an expert on it. this study, you've said, may be a game changer. why is that? >> possibly so. we have to look at it from a scientific perspective. it's important for people to know what it basically says is that this study goes back to the end of the last ice age and the last ice age was essentially driving below the speed limit. when humans put their foot on the gas we're speeding. ear we're rising at a a rate of 100 times. it's the rate of change that we're seeing that really suggests that humans are part of the cause. >> it's important to look back to the last ice age because some critics complain that climate change research has been shortsighted. is that part of the reason this is groundbreaking? >> it's important. i often have people saying dr. shepherd, climate changes
5:26 am
naturally. of course it does. some of the changes and the magnitude of the changes take thousands of years. we're seeing warming on the decades, tens of years. much of that in the 20 to 30 years. that certainly suggests that a natural cycle cannot be the only explanation based on this particular study. >> what's alarming, the study says things should be getting cooler, right? >> approximate we consider natural processes alone, based on this study, we'll be on a ramping down or cooling. some suggested that the human activity may have even thwarted the beginning much another ice age. i'm not quite sure about that. the point is, we went from a dramatic cooling over thousands of years to rapid warming over the same magnitude over tens to hundreds of years. >> let's talk about the practical consequences. by 2100, temperatures could rise from 2 to 11.5 degrees. if temperatures were to rise 11.5 degrees, how do things
5:27 am
change for you? how do they change for me, for all americans? >> i often get the question about what's the big deal about one degree or 3 or 4 degrees. if our child gets a fever of 1 to 2 to 3 degrees, our body knows that. same thing with climate. we're like hi to see things happening 2, 3, 5 to 10 degrees, that's a planet we don't recognize. we've been warmer in the past but reptiles are roaming around in the poles. we don't recognize when we get that warm. it's important to look at this in a broader context and approach it scientifically and not get entrenched in ideologies on either side. >> will certain areas see more of an effect than others? >> it is regional. the study was global. they used records from around the globe, marine animals and looked back at past climate. so we know that there are regional changes.
5:28 am
one of the things to worry about is the larger changes in sea level, changes in extreme weather. these are things that scientists are now looking at to try to understand what the impacts are. it's certainly consistent with what the ipcc had projected. >> over the last year, the national oceanic and atmospheric administration points to the effect that there have been record breaking extreme events in all 50 of the states. one, can we draw a causal relationship here and two, should we expecting more of this? >> we have to be careful. but the ipcc certainly suggested that certain extreme events would be more frequent or intense. i think the question that we should be asking is not whether extreme events are being caused or affected by climate change, but how much additional risk are we add adding to the deck that we're sort of loading the deck, adding an ace to the card deck that every time you draw an ace, you might get an extreme event. scientists are starting to think about increasing the risk or

5:35 am
rome. he's the senior vatican analyst for cnn and the senior correspondent for the national catholic reporter, an independent newspaper not associated with the catholic church. i want to talk politics in a moment but tell us, john, who the leading candidates are. >> reporter: brianna, predictions are always dangerous and also fun. if you talk to most observers, you would get four names as leading candidates. one would be cardinal angela scola of milan. an electoral but nuts and bolts experience running a big archdiocese in milan. cardinal u let. then cardinal odilosch had erer. finally, you have the endlessly charismatic cardinal timothy

5:37 am
vote, which is 77 votes in this conclave. because, brianna, the last thing they want is to get in there and have this drag on too long, creating images of paralysis and gridlock and so on. they want to avoid that. so they're trying to do the heavy lifting right now so they have a game plan going in on tuesday. >> john, one of the biggest challenges for whomever is elected is going to be the unfinished business of the last pope. we're talking specifically about the fallout over the sex abuse scandal, the cover-up. what does the successor need to do to restore faith in the clergy? >> reporter: i think the number one thing you would hear from critics of the church on the outside and many people inside the church is the most powerful thing the next pope could do, symbolically and substantively is not just enforce discipline on the priests who abuse but also on the bishops who cover it up. most people would say that's the most important piece of unfinished business from benedict's papacy in this
