happened to be nearby the scene not arrived so quickly. it happened here at this martin super market in elkhart indiana. it ended with multiple fatalities. >> we live in that world. there's not a day goes by where we're not learning of a school shooting or at a bids. we hoped this would never come to our hometown. >> he came into the deli and opened fire killing two women, a store employee and a shopper. their bodies found ten store aisles apart from one another. >> the area where the shootings happened in the store are basically from one end of the store to the next. >> police race to the scene. that's when officers say the shooter turned his gun on them. >> they saw a subject there that pointed a gun at them. they fired on the subject.

we believe they hit the subject. the subject is deceased. >> police have not identified the gunman or the victims. and police found, again, a large knife and a semi-automatic handgun next to the body of the suspect. we're still waiting to find out who he is and why he decided to go on this deadly rampage. >> so scary. that is right near where i grew up. a lot of questions remaining. so we have to talk about a truly scary scandal rocking the air force this morning. take a look at this unsettling number we have right here. 34 officers were said to be involved in a scheme to cheat on a pro efficiency exam. 16 of these officers were caught sharing answers to the test that allows them to take on this very dangerous role.

when you see those numbers, joe, does not make you feel good. >> that's true. good morning, kate. it's the biggest scandal of its kind in air force history. now the pentagon is scrambling to get to the bottom of it as quickly as they can. in the nuclear weapons business, there's no room for sloppiness or miss behavior among the people who have their finger on the triggers of the u.s. arsenal. it started with a probe into illegal drug possession but led investigators to an air force cheating scandal. nearly three dozen airmen. some cheated on a pro efficiency test last august in september. all involved have been desert find and restricted from miss l crew duty. the cheating was accomplished using text messages. >> this is absolutely unacceptable behavior and it is

completely contrary to our core values in the air force. as everybody here knows the number one core value for us is integrity. >> there's a long list of scandals. just last month, an air force major was fired because he drank too much and got into trouble in russia. and in the nuclear arsenal business where there's no room for error, a little thing like napping on the job is a major security issue. the defense secretary recently visited one of the missle bases. >> how important your work is, how we depend on your professionalism and how you do your work. >> and it's not just the air force. a navy vice admiral was removed from command after being implicated in a gambling investigation. the dod personnel assigned have

suffered from burnout and been involved in domestic violence. but they say cheating must be dealt with as a question of character. >> this is unethical behavior and it gets right to the core of the culture of this group. >> the air force has now begun the process of retesting all 600 of its launch officers. one expert said there is a question whether the rigorous standards somehow set them up to fail. >> thank you. new this morning, president obama is preparing to reign in the nsa. the question is, how much. tomorrow he's expected to announce new limits on the spy agency's reach. he will call for greater oversight, but keep in place many of the programs that have raised privacy concerns. jim, what do we know. >> well, it's been eight months since edward snowden revealed it. now a little more than 24 hours,

we'll know exactly how far the president will go. you'll remember the president convened a reform panel. it recommended some 46 changes to the program, but it's becoming clear he will not accept many of those recommendations. the headline, the bulk collection of phone metadata will continue and the panel did not recommend to stop it. but there is a record the president will not accept the recommendation that that data be held by private phone companies rather than the nsa. the phone companies didn't want to hold the data, they're fearing lawsuits. the court reviews searches of the data. he also may set limits on spying on foreign leaders and direct his aides to negotiate agreements with allies on what spying is acceptable among friends and what is not. you remember how much trouble it caused and controversy when we

revealed we were spying on our alle alleys. i want you to take a listen to this. >> the security was inadequate and should have been beefed up. >> that is the chair of the senate intelligence committee talking about a bipartisan report fromming from her panel that concluding the attack that killed four americans in benghazi libya could have been prevented. the report cites them for failing to communicate and respond to warnings about terrorist activities. we are live in our washington bureau with the very latest. >> good morning kate, the committee really spreads the blame across the u.s. government, but saves the most stinging for the state department for failing to secure its admission. >> the deadly attack could have

been prevented. that's according to a damming report by the city intelligence committee. >> we know there were concerns. we know there were training carps around that area. >> the 85-page report said the state department didn't connect the dots after reports that forewarned about an attack. >> it is something that i think the state department has to really come to grips with and see that we have 285 missions and embassies. >> the state department says it is already taking steps to do just that. >> we've been clear that we could have done more with security. >> but push back on the notion it missed the warning signs. >> there was no specific threat indicating an attack was coming. >> the pentagon was faulted for not having military assets in the region to respond that

night. and the intelligence community took heat too for creating the false impression the attack grew out of a protest. >> what we do know is that the natural protests that aroads because of the -- arose because of the outrage over the video were used as an excuse by stream mists. >> among the reports, 18 recommendations, the state department must cut through red tape to quickly act on threats and upgrade security and work with the pentagon and intel engines agencies to identify and prioritize security gaps. more than a year after attack, the obama administration has identified several suspects. but those responsible have still not be brought to justice. the report warns that 15 people cooperating with the fbi

investigation have been killed. >> that's one of the more surprising things that's come out recently. thank you so much. >> a lot of other news this morning. let's get to john berman. >> breaking overnight, president obama, another push on senators to hold off on more sanctions against iran. he told a group of democratic senators that passing more sanctions could hamper progress with iran. an interim deal was reached that was criticized by many lawmakers as soft on iran. >> the 12-year-old boy planned every detail of the attack in a journal that he kept at home. two students were wounded. one is still in critical condition. the family of the suspect released a statement. they say they are heart broken. former stop aides to governor christie could be served with subpoenas today. the jersey assembly committee is

welcome back to "new day." disturbing new tapes released just this morning possibly containing the voice of the

sandy hooks school shooter. they say his voice is the one heard speaking on the college radio station about mass murder. just a year before he took the lives of 20 children, six educators and his own mother. using the game greg, he compares the chimp that mauled a connecticut woman back in 2009 to a teenage mall shooter. it races the -- raises the question, were red flags missed. pamela brown has been looking into this very eerie phone call and of course this may be very difficult for some people to listen to. >> it truly is chilling, kate. we haven't been able to independently verify the voice and that it's that of the sandy hook shooter. but it might bring insight into the mind of a young man not long before he went on that shooting ram page that shattered a

nation. is this the voice of adam lanza? according to a report in the new york daily news, it is. the coverage story includes what is purported to be recently recorded audio. the paper spoke to two class mates of lanza who said it was him. the audio obtained is from an oregon college radio show. the man identified as lanza wanted to discuss the death of a chimp. in 2009, travis was shot and killed by a police officer after hebrew tally mauled a -- he brutally maul add connecticut woman. it was a 7-minute interview. >> that can be -- his attacks

can be parallel to the attacks, random acts of violence. actual human. i just don't think it would be such a stretch to say he could have been a teenage mall shooter or something like that. >> they say they don't remember who the caller was but remembers the call. >> maybe he's trying to disguise his voice or something. i don't know. >> lanza posted in an online forum under the user name "smiggles." in one post, he wrote about calling into the radio show. >> i think the subtext of what he's saying, violence is innate to humans and really should not be punished because it is their natural basis. that's the message i think he's trying to get across.

he feels possessed by this need, this compulsion to commit violence. >> we're still awaiting comments. meantime, lanza's father says he's willing to release any medical records he can related to his son. they said it is vital to have access to more information about lanza's mental health history. >> though cnn hasn't independently e confirmed it's his voice, it is creepy. weather has become a major issue at the australian open. now, matches are being suspended because of rain and lightning. let's bring in joe carter with this morning's "bleacher report". >> australia's about 16 hours ahead of us on the east coast. so earlier today, temperatures reached 109 degrees.

obviously that's very extreme dangerous temperatures to play tennis in. any of the matches played inside, they had to close the retractable roofs. as far as the matches on the outdoor courts, they started to push the matches back. but that's when the rain and the lightning came through and that's what forced 14 matches outside to be suspended. friday is going to be another scorcher. obviously the plan will be to start matches later in the day again. but they're looking at major relief this weekend. on saturday, temperatures are going to drop nearly 40 degrees. so 73, 74 degrees about on saturday and sunday. ideal conditions to play tennis in. the wife of miami dolphins quarterback tannehill, apparently left a rifle in the back of a car. she says she rented a car at the

health treatment. they say they're going to cooperate fully into the investigation. >> 911. >> oh, my god. >> reporter: this morning, we're hearing for the first time the terrifying moments inside this new mexico middle school after a student opens fire. >> someone just got shot. >> who was it? >> he just killed a kid. >> where is the kid that has the gun? >> i don't know. he's on the floor right now. >> reporter: moments of fear and moments of great strength. >> 911. do you have an emergency. >> reporter: listen as this brave teacher comforts kendall sanders. she was shot in the right shoulder but survived. >> talk to me. talk to me. what did you do on your day?

>> reporter: this community still reeling. law enforcement tells cnn the 12-year-old suspect planned the shooting in a handwritten journal at home describing, quote, what he wanted to do. >> we did find evidence that the suspect had planned this event. >> reporter: a law enforcement force says the suspect sawed off the handle of a 20-gauge shotgun his father purchased from walmart and brought it to school in a duffle bag. he warns some student to, quote, get out of here, as he entered the packed school gym. >> it was random. the victims were random. >> reporter: the alleged shooter's family released a statement that reads in part, our constant thoughts and fervent prayers have been and are for the young man who was hurt and for the young woman who was hurt. we love our young son and grandson dearly. his whole family is heart broken.

>> the children that returned to school tomorrow were not the children who arrived on tuesday. they are different. >> reporter: and that law enforcement source telling cnn that there were multiple weapons in the home, but that most of them were locked up, just not the shotgun which then became sawed off that this suspect then used in the shooting. still, no idea what the motive may have been for the shooting to begin in the first place. >> thank you very much. also new this morning, an air force scandal involving one of our nation's most critical mission s. the launch of nuclear weapons. cheating on a proficiency exam. the people on their finger on the nation's nuclear button. joe, what do we know? >> chris, it's the biggest

scandal of its kind. now the pentagon is scrambling to get to the bottom of it as quickly as it can. in the nuclear weapons business, there is absolutely no room for this kind of thing among the people who have their fingers on the trigger of the u.s. arsenal. it started with a probe into illegal drug possession, but unexpectedly led investigators to an air force cheating scandal. nearly three dozen airmen. some cheated on a proficiency test last august. others apparently knew about the cheating, but didn't stop it or report it. all involved have been desert find. air force secretary deborah lee james. >> this is absolutely unacceptable behavior and contrary to our core values in the air force. the number one core value for us is integrity.

>> there's a long list of scandals involving missle defense personnel. just last month, an air force major was fired because he drank too much and got into trouble in russia. in the nuclear arms business, a little thing like napping on the job is a major security issue ft the defense secretary recently visited one of the miss l bases to try to lift moral. >> realize how important your mission, how important your work is, how we depend on your professionalism and how you do your work. >> and it's not just the air force. a navy admiral was recently removed from command after being implicated in a gambling investigation. the dod personnel assigned have suffered from burnout and been involved in domestic violence. but a cnn military expert says

cheating must be dealt with as a question of character. >> it gets right to the core of the culture of this -- of this group. >> the air force is now retesting all of its launch officers. button expert told cnn there is a question whether the rigorous examination of this dod personnel somehow sets them up to fail. >> thanks so much. renewed pressure on congress this morning to not issue new sanctions against iran. the president telling them that any new sanctions could damage already delicate nuclear talks with the country. we're in washington with the very latest. >> reporter: good morning. you know, you can say the president has had two difficult negotiations on his hands. one with iran, the other with members of his own party over a new sanctions bill on iran. now support had been building. some 59 senators had signed on,

including 16 democrats for a bill which officials told me would ruin the nuclear agreement. he made a long impashed case for why he didn't want congress to ask now. one, that the iranians will walk from these negotiations, but two, that congress can introduce a bill in anesthesia know second if iran doesn't live up to the agreement. so a senator told our own janet bash it was one of the most powerful arguments he heard from obama on this. democratic leaders telling reporters there are no immediate plans to put the sanction bill to a vote. if that holds, that would let the difficult talks with the iranians survive another day. listen to this everybody. >> who else in the governor's office was involved in a decision that gave bridget kelly the belief that on august 13 she

could issue an e-mail to close lanes? >> a key question being asked by new jersey assembly men confirming that this could be the day that subpoenas get served. he is heading up the committee investigating the manufactured traffic jam. his first order of business could be serving two of christie's top aides. what do we know. >> reporter: good morning to you. yesterday that investigative committee appointed reed sha to investigate. he was the prosecutor in the case of the former governor of illinois who is now in prison. of course, they're taking this very seriously. that investigative committee will get subpoena power today. we actually expect to to summon documents first. text messages like the one we

saw there from bridget kelly earlier. they want to look over those documents first and then subpoena some of these individuals who they can then question later. while all of this is going on, chris christie will be picking up his official duties as governor. we'll see him go to the jersey shore today touting relief efforts for super storm sandy. as you may know, he is the chairman of the republican governor's association. so he has to travel the country to raise money. so this weekend, he'll be going to florida to raise money for rick scott. all so on tuesday, we'll see him doing his second innaug ration. it's at noon on tuesday. chris? >> all right. thank you very much. subpoena power not unusual, but also no joke. so these people are going to have to come forward and talk. one of the stories that we're watching. four americans killed in the

consulate attack in benghazi, lib gentleman, they didn't have to die. the report concludes the deadly attack could have been prevented by fixing known security short falls. it lays blame with the state department, the pentagon and even the late ambassador chris stephens himself. new this morning, a warning to the u.s. from north korea demanding a halt to military exercises scheduled for next wouldn't with south korea. they call the drills a direct provocation warning they could lead to a ka tas trophy. that triggered a military buildup you will remember on the korean pa innocence la. blames lighting up the sky in central california where a brush fire is raming. it's near the coast. one structure has burned. ten homes being threatened have

been e va evacuated. there's also a report of a second fire nearby. officials trying to determine if they are separate fires. >> and predicting how much it will cost to have a baby. a just released study says it costs somewhere between 3 and $37,000 for an uncomplicated hospital delivery. that is a huge, huge difference. a c-section varied from 8 thousand to 71,000. now researchers cannot find a logical explanation for the huge variati variation. they say it illustrates why health care is to expensive in these country. >> i think sanjay and elizabeth cohen have both done investigations on how the cost, the charge for the same procedure, the same tool in the

operatoring from are wildly different. >> a reminder that this is a system that needs change, you know. >> no joke. >> thanks, john. >> no joke indeed. >> you know what else is not a joke? the weather. let's check back in with indra. >> we're talking about mild conditions to the entire eastern half of the country. what a difference from just a week ago where temperatures are in most places are actually above average. we're not really going too far below from where we should be this time of year. yes, it's getting close to the weekend. we do have a couple systems still out there. look at how minor these guys. it continues to make its way offshore. we're talking about new york, boston, philly, yeah, you could see light showers out there today. we continue to watch the one farther back eventually making its way into the ohio valley

because currently p it is bringing blizzard conditions into the da co-tas. generally lighter snow amounts, but that visibility and low thanks to those strong winds. into the upper ohio valley, we'll continue to see that snow and eventually it will make its way into the northeast for the weekend. it dries out as it makes its way east. keep in mind behind that, a third system. because this is the trend, it is winter. another quick, dry system. all said and done, ohio valley about 4 to 6 inches. only 1 to 2 inches in the northeast, most of that being rain. still talking about extreme fire danger now extending all the way even in through friday. i kind of want to show you real quickly, look at the difference. this is january/february, this is the time period they normally

recover. this is only going to get worse. >> thank. here's the story that you just have to hear and then figure out if you can believe it. a 14-year-old little leaguer is being sued by his own coach. the reason why is baffling. the kid was apparently celebrating the game-winning run. he throws his heldment, accidentally hit his coach with it. the coach is now suing and suing for -- wait for it -- half a million dollars. . >> so we're all watches baseball. you've seen it on tv. dancing across home plate. even the occasional tossing of equipment. but now the parents of one little leaguer in california are finding out that one of these actions could end up costing them hundreds of thousands of dollars. california parents are in

disbelief this morning after their 14-year-old was sued by his little league coach. the offense? throwing his helmet in celebration after scoring a game winning run hitting the coach's angle and allegedly tearing his akill lee's heel. >> i thought it was a joke. >> it was almost laughable. >> it wasn't a laughing matter for the coach, a chiropractor who is seeking $400,000 for pain and suffering and nearly $100,000 for lost wages. >> when you're 6 foot and 180 pounds, a 14-year-old hit somebody akilly's and split it, you should be at least apologetic for it. >> the boy's parents are calling foul saying they didn't receive information about the lawsuit

until six months after the injury allegedly took place. >> i had spoken with little league, several board members, they were just what? >> that claims the family knew about his injury and turned their backs on him when he reached out for help. >> it's not about the money. it's about the acknowledgement and taking responsibility for their action. >> some say the lawsuit is frivolous. >> you assume the risk. if you're engaged in baseball activities, for a coach to have a cause of action, a legal claim against a child for something like this is for lack of a better word, prepost rust. >> the coach says, he's just looking for an apology. and $400,000. he issued this statement, we are suing because of the rules and regulations in the game. you can't destroy private property and recklessly throw equipment at another human being. the family says they've already

racked up more than -- i'm sorry. $4,000 in -- $5,000 in legal expenses already. now the coach says he whipped the helmet. i suppose there probably is a legal difference. >> there's a huge legal difference. it's all about intention, right? you are right, common sense tells you that. but if the kid took the helmet and threw it at the coach intending to hit and hurt him with it, then the results injury would be a cause of action. >> i -- i hear you -- and especially if all he says is what i want is an apologize. accept it from us. we apologize for the child. >> awfully rich apology. >> thank you. >> big future. i think there's something else going on there maybe between the family and him. why would you, if you're a coach, you love your players, that's why you get into coaching

and then you respond like this? i just don't get it. more to come. >> coming up next, the chilling tape. the voice believed to be the killer heard talking about masds murder just one year before his ram page at sandy hook. was a warning sign missed? i quit smoking. i've quit for 75 days. 15 days, but not in a row. for the first time, you can use nicorette... even if you slip up... so you can reach your goal.

joining us now to discuss, cnn political commentator and washington post and pew lit ser price winner. >> nice to be here. thank you. >> so anna, first to you. i thought it was a very candid interview. the first lady to me when i read this piece seems to have come into her own or has become more comfortable talking about herself. what was your big take away from this interview? >> you know, i think it was a candid girl's talk interview. i met e michelle obama while she was then senator obama's wife and she came to miami for a few visits. this is that type of michelle obama that can sit down and talk with girls about turning 50, being a mother, what she wants

to do. i think it was a terrific interview because she talked about women being free to do whatever they want, whether it's getting a nip and tuck or making whatever choice she wants to make as she grows older and decides what to do with her life. she's focusing on being active and preparing herself to become older and having an active life as a grandmother and a mother. >> she's not just anybody. she is the first lady. so everything gets examined a little bit differently. there's this odd-ball lance. what do you see in this article in terms into insight as to how she plays the role? >> i think it's in keeping with how she has comported herself so far in the white house which is that she has acknowledged the fact that she's in this rare position. as she said in the article that

she, you know, can't really rest on her laurels, her blessings, her successes. but also trying to be quote, unquote, real. i think the conversation about bow tox -- which there were over 6 million in 2012, really kind of tapped into something that a lot of women talk about with their girlfriends. >> she has a good take on it. when i heard michelle obama talks botox, i got upset about it. of course that's the topic that a woman is going to be asked when she hits her 50th birthday. i think she walked that line very well in saying never say never. the only thing she said that she would say never to is politics. she is basically -- and i mean maybe not a surprise, doesn't have any appetite for anymore politics herself after this. >> it seems -- i'm sorry -- that

there hasn't been any indication so far that politics is something that she would want to do. but one of the things that she's been really great at, i think, is being able to bring this sort of 3 dimensional powerful woman to the forefront. i mean someone who brings a law degree, brings mother hood and brings fashion and style and all the things that make up her personality to the world stage. >> anna, what do you think? >> look, i think you make a really good point about what women get asked versus men. frankly, i think there's nothing wrong talking about botox. let me tell you this, i know she's not a hispanic woman, because you'd almost have to put a gun to the head of a hispanic woman to get us to talk about

our age that openly. i do hope to live to see the day when a male candidate or maybe a male first spouse gets asked about his testosterone level. it's on every commercial on tv these days. >> i love you, anna. it gets oddly uncomfortable. i don't know how that happened. let's talk hot flashes. just kidding. anna, great to see you. robin, great as well. thanks you guys. >> getting lower all the time. let's take a break. >> coming up on "new day," do we have a tape of the voice of the new town shooter offering what should have been a very huge red flag. we're going to tell you the story coming up. also ahead, another warning from the fda who might be taking too much of the popular pain medication acetaminophen.

welcome back. there's a lot going on this morning. let's get to john berman with the headlines. >> new information about the 12-year-old accused of opening fire at a new mexico school. police say he planned out his actions and sawed off the shotgun himself. 911 calls depict a frantic scene as a teacher tried to calm the shooter and stop the violence. the family says they are heart

is the sandy hook shooter adam lanza. it might have been an ominous warn ago year before he went on a shooting rampage that shattered a nation. is this the voice of adam lanza? according to a report in the "new york daily news," it is. it was recorded a year before the 20-year-old committed one of the deadliest mass murders in american history. >> he didn't act any dmpbtly an any human would. >> the man the paper identifies as lanza wanted to discuss the death of a nesk indicated chimp named travis. in 2009, travis was shot and killed by a police officer after

hebrew tally mauled a connecticut woman. the caller who identifies himself as greg compares the attack with that of a teenage mall shooter in an over 7-minute interview. >> the attack is parallel to the attacks of random acts of violence committed by humans which the mainstream also has no explanation for. i don't think it would be a stretch to say that he very well could have been a teenage mall shooter or something like that. >> he remembers the call. >> the voice is kind of odd, sort of robotic. >> according to a blogger cited by the daily news, lannza posted in an online forum. investigators say he may have used the name in instant messages. he wrote about calling into the radio show. >> i think the subtext of what

he's saying, violence is innate and intings wall to humans and should not be punished because it is their natural basis. that's the message i think he's trying to get across. he feels possessed by this need, this compulsion to commit violence. >> we have reached out to spokes people and we are still awaiting a comment. >> the more we can understand, the better chance we have of preventing it going forward. thank you for tracking it down for us. indra, what do we have going on right now? we've been tracking the australian open. what's going on? >> yeah, we all remember these images from the last several days. you're talking about extreme heat that you had players fainting on the field. one of the players thought that they saw snoopy out there.

did they suspend any of the games? yes, they did. take a look at the temperatures. yesterday, temperatures were 109 and they did not think that was hot enough to suspend the play. today, reached 11 degrees so they -- 111 degrees. what did they do? for the courts inside, they closed those roofs. if you were outside, they suspended the play for a couple hours. if you started your set inside, you still had to play another hour in 111 degree temperatures until they actually closed that roof. so, not everyone was relieved of this. it was almost like a little devine intervention when it started raining. keep in mind, tomorrow expected to be just as hot. it's this weekend that finally they're going to be the relief that they definitely need, guys. >> what a huge drop from 111 to 73. >> that would be a cold front.

i don't know about you, but it turns out i have been abusing a drug. here's why. this morning another warning from doctors about the dangers of asset minute finish.

take a look at the headlines. doctors warned about prescribing prescription drugs with more than 325 milligrams of acetaminophen. before that, tylenol's parent company began putting a big red warning on the cap designed to reduce accidental over doses. in total, they estimate 22,000 people have sto visit emergency rooms from acetaminophen overdoses every year. what is the real risk here? that's what we want to talk about. let's bring in dr. raj to dig deeper. >> a lot of people take tylenol and they also take prescription medications that contain tylenol and they don't realize it. >> you have a cold, and then you take that because you think it helps with the fever and the

aches. >> and then prescription ones like percocet, vicodin. then you still have pain, let me just take tylenol on top of that. so even in some of these cold remedies as you said, you're going to double dose if you don't realize that the tylenol is in there. look for acetaminophen or apap that stands for acetaminophen. >> you get the gist of it. we all use the cold relief. tylenol is a common kicker. >> so if you use these in combination you can get up to 1,300 milligrams of tylenol. you're getting somewhere on the way to the 4,000 milligram which is the limit per day which can cause liver damage or liver failure. >> we have extra strength pain relief, then you have the

excedrin for the headache. >> you take the tylenol because the migraine medicine isn't working, together this can get you up to 1,500 milligrams in one shot. now you're getting closer to the 4-gram limit. >> it's not comical. the hangover scenario. a lot of people take excess of things, now they have even bigger problem. now we get to this thing, the big thing we have here, acetaminophen and the nyquil. >> exactly. 1,605 milligrams. so this can really start to add up quickly. alcohol is a great point. alcohol can increase your susceptibility to liver damage. if you're drinking alcohol, you do not want to take tylenol. >> let's see what happens when you hit that button.

give it a good snack there. they were like all over the thousands mark. >> yes. >> we're talking about 325 milligrams. let's jump to the big point. all right, i'm taking too much. what's the reality about what can happen to your liver if you overdose on a regular basis. >> in some countries, acetaminophen overdose is the number one reason why people need a liver trans part. it can even cause death. so it's a very common medication used for suicide -- successful suicide attempts. so this can really kill you. you have to be careful. speak to your pharmacist if you're not sure. >> so you can buy the -- should we even buy the maximum strength. >> if you use one extra strength, that's okay. it's 500 milligrams, not 4 grams. we don't want to have to call

the doctor every time you want to take one tylenol, but you have to be smart about this medication and other over-the counter medications. >> these are things that people do every day. >> absolutely. these combinations happen in every household in america and you have to be careful. >> eye opener for me. thank you for this valuable information. coming up next on "new day," a mild mannered home depoe employee suddenly becomes a hero. you have to see this. also justin bieber, once again the butt of late-night jokes. turns out the egging of a neighbor's house is comedy gold. and we are counting down to the oscar nominations. we're going to take you live to beverly hills for the big event. ♪ i quit smoking. i've quit for 75 days.

was there and none of them did the basic step of checking if she was alive. >> reporter: it is a fire on the plane continued to rage, this truck moves into position and here rolls over ye's head killing her. but sadly it does not end there. another fire fighter jump flood this rescue truck. allegedly without proper equipment or a spotter. the truck maneuvered into the area where ye was located. and rolls over her a second time. >> it is unthinkable. it is unimaginable because the first thing that the -- first priority of the firefighters or any rescue personnel sing saving lives. the person that needed their help the most was ye and that was the person they didn't help. >> reporter: her family filed a wrongful death claim against the city of san francisco saying rescuers breached their duty of care to ye and were grossly negligent. >> initially what was being said

was she was covered in foam and no one saw her and she was run over. that's not what the video shows. >> after it was determined rescue vehicles killed ye, the san francisco fire chief -- she apologized profusely. with the release of this video the city of san francisco and its fire department have declined comment. they are citing pending litigation. >> thank you for that update. i want you to take -- take a look at this. you see this? this is captive u.s. soldidier bergdahl. this is new video of him being shot in december and showing him alive. jim sciutto was the first to report on its existence. bergdahl has been in captivity since 2009. he is the only u.s. service member being held by enemy forces. jim chute so in washington with much more on this. what more are you learning?

made an empassiimpassio a video. he was held for eight months while working for "the new york times." >> you decide it is your job to survive to stay alive, and just wait and hope there is some kind of resolution to the case. it is absolutely incredible that bowe bergdahl stayed alive through these 4 1/2 years. >> negotiations, efforts are ongoing to release him. his captors have been sting for five taliban fighters to be exchanged for him. these are part of wider talks with the taliban for an end to the fighting and end to the war there in afghanistan. i have been to his hometown. my wife grew up nearby there. you see those yellow ribbons and the signs wrought side of the restaurants and hotels. i can tell you that this town is desperate for him to come home. all they have today really is just at least news that as of last month, he was still alive. >> yes. jim, thank you very much. >> what a price to pay in service to the country. hopefully he comes home. that will be a great day to cover that story. a lot of news this morning.

"her" was nominated for best film but joaquin phoenix not nominated for best actor. also, like they said, "the butler" shut out this morning. no forrest whitaker. an wrought side chance for this category. i agree, best actor, probably the toughest category and the most competitive category this year. >> so best actress. we have -- cate blanchekatcate sandra bullock, meryl streep, judi dench, amy adams. >> wow. >> powerful, powerful group.

>> except the one. right? >> yes. all won except amy adams. she has been nominated but never won. >> any surprise here? >> a lot of people thought -- emma thompson may get nominated for "saving mr. banks." the fact she not in there and wild card was thought to be that the slot was -- thought to be between meryl streep and amy adams but it went both of them. emma thompson. >> risk of meryl streep fatigue at this point. she gets nominated every year and wins half of those years. at a certain point is the academy going say enough, we will let in one new? maybe amy adams this year? >> i think we never tire of major league streep. it is her world out here in hollywood. we live in it. i do think it is exciting for amy. she has always been nominated as a best supporting actress. this is her first nomination as best actress. so -- i think it is -- it is all great performances but do i think that cate blanchett at this point has the lock on it.

>> michelle, whether we were talking earlier, we were kind of thinking that maybe the dark horse, wild card in this category, would be julia louie dreyfuss. that didn't happen. what do you think of these nominees? >> you know, i think emma thompson being omitted is a big omission in this category. going into award season, it was her and cate blanchett everyone talked about. she was a favorite going in. her not getting a nomination for "saving mr. banks" a really big omission. i do think that amy adams deserve as lot of credit for this role of -- in "american hustle." i think this was her film. i think it was her best work and she really deserved a nomination. by the way, this is meryl streep's 18th oscar nomination. christa is right. this is her world and hollywood -- we all just kind of sit around and wait for the next one for her. >> she is in one that made transformation commonplace. whether it is physical or emotional, she's just such an actor's actor. the big ticket is obviously when you get to best picture.

we have nine nominees this year. let me know if i leave any out. "12 years a slave," "gravity," "american hustle," "captain phillips." "nebraska." "dallas buyers club." "her." "the wolf of wall street" and "philomena." is there a prohibitive favorite when you look at this bunch? i have all these percentages in front of me. >> you know, i think -- the -- the two sort of front-runners would have to be "12 years a slave" and "gravity" at this point. "american hustle" also has a huge amount of support. i think those are three that have gotten a lot of support. there is a lot of support for -- a lot of the other films. "nebraska" very well liked. "dallas buyers club" surprised people how well it did today. "the wolf of wall street" is -- quite well regarded. >> i feel like people are still watching and getting introduced to the movie "her." i don't know if it was because i haven't seen it yet.

i was surprised at that one maybe because it is recently out. what do you think? >> well, i think "her" one of the quiet movies people discover. here in hollywood we saw it a while ago and loved it. it has a great cast. spike jones. he makes such beautiful films and this one is no exception. i think obviously this oscar nomination is going to do a lot for this film and people getting word out there and people seeing it. so i personally loved her. amy adams is also in that and she was great. joaquin, he certainly was contender in the best actor category. so it is a really, really good film. >> what's striking me is the number of nominees, nine. it can be as high as ten and as few as five. nine is an awful lot. michelle, what's the number tell you? it means the voters there are an awful lot of good movies out there. >> right. it does. it means there was another strong year for movies this year. i do think, again, like you said, there could have been ten. there were omissions here that

probably will have people scratching their heads this morning. no "saving mr. banks." a lot of people loved that film. we are talking about lee daniels, "the butler" was shut out. the academy could have put one of those films in there as well. i do think it is interesting, though, because we talk about "the wolf of wall street." i know how much i love that film after i saw it. we talked earlier about a month ago, guys. what did i say? watch out for jonah hill and good news for him this morning. he got a nod from the academy. this was his best work as well. although jared little will be hard to beat in the supporting category. >> you point out turner did many than expected in cross categories. when we come back we will see which movies fared best, which ones are a disappointment at this stage. what's the story line? yeah, i'm married. does it matter? you'd do that for me? really? yeah, i'd like that. who are you talking to? uh, it's jake from state farm.

sounds like a really good deal. jake from state farm at three in the morning. who is this? it's jake from state farm. what are you wearing, jake from state farm?

♪ welcome back to "new day." we continue to break down the oscar nominations with gordon cox. los angeles, krista smith and michelle turner. let's get story line action going here. you had "american hustle" and "gravity." ten nominations each. "12 years a slave" had nine. what do you see here in terms of story line? what kind of movies dominated and who is the big surprise success? what do you think? >> i think "gravity" had such a great year. it was good movie and made a lot

of money. i think it is one of the big surprises and celebration this morning and leads nominations with ten along with "american hustle." it could be a very good year. we can see alfonzo going in as a front runner in this race. look for "gravity" to make a big splash and wine for the weinstein company to start their campaigns because, you know, the race is on now. we will see who will be the winner. >> give us your final take, krista. >> i think it is exciting because you have a really huge commercial movie and also a small independent film in "12 years a slave." i have to say it is a great year for film. i'm really happy for director steve mcqueen. it is his first nomination and third film. his third collaboration with michael who got a -- got a moved. i think it is going to be very competitive.

>> all right. as we talked about what would be -- the big surprises and story lines going on with the actors, it is tough to beat for the oscars. >> one of the nominees for best supporting actor in "captain phillips." it is his back story that makes him amazing. congratulations. we have him on the phone. can you hear us? >> yes, i can. thank you very much. >> well deserved because of your performance and even more so because of the back story. tell us, sir, before this movie, what was life for you? >> well, i was a limo driver in minneapolis. >> how did you come to be there and what were you thinking about your dreams were the rest of your life? >> you know, go back and get my engineering degree. >> now have you become an actor and oscar nominated actor when you know where you have come from and where you are today, what do you think about this nomination? >> that's right.

well, i'm very humbled and honored. the nomination means so much to me. >> the odds had you as a likely nominee for best supporting actor. but still, when you heard them speak your name, what was that feeling like? >> that was -- so exciting for me. i couldn't sleep last night. i was thinking about it. we decided -- up and down as soon as we heard it. >> let me ask you, where did you come up with the character? how did you figure out all the ins and outs and subtleties in acting your first time out? >> you know, the director helped me out a lot. i use ad lot of my imagination. >> what was it like filming with tom hanks? did you -- did you know when you were filming that -- one of your lines in the movie was going to be the tag line? "i am the captain now." did you
