>> back then, right in. >> unique success. it was in 2006 that she got her lifetime achievement award. >> you've earned it at that point, right. >> long overdue. her family remembering her for her achievements after being a star. we salute her for a life of remarkable achievements. our beloved mother, grandmother and great grandmother. shirley temple, dead at the age of 85. >> what a beautiful smile. >> i mean, she had a long life at 85 years old. a lot to remember today. >> our thoughts to her family and the generations of people who have enjoyed her work. owe big stories we are watching today, atlanta and much of the south once again under the gun. another major winter storm and this one expected to be more

devastating than the one that paralyzed atlanta just two weeks ago. more than 890 flights canceled today. the big question, is atlanta ready this time around? could it be a repeat of, unfortunately, this? let's definitely hope that doesn't happen this time. meteorologist indra petersons is tracking the storm's ever move. but let's begin in atlanta. how is it looking so far today, nick? >> reporter: good morning. you mentioned the southeast in the path of a double dose of severe weather. who could forget what happened in atlanta just two weeksing a. they're pulling out the stops to make sure it doesn't happen again. just a preview of what's coming tonight from arkansas to alabama. >> this is going to be the monster system that we'll need to watch out for.

>> reporter: it's test number two for the metro atlanta area. governor nathan deal maintained this time they'd be ready. >> we're going to try our best to get it absolutely correct every time. two, the meteorologists part of our task force, we're going to expect them to get it right every time. i'm joking, just partially. >> reporter: when asked by cnn if the city was better prepared, they said they didn't want to make predictions. >> i'll let the results speak for themselves. >> reporter: shutting down public schools today and tomorrow so kids don't get stranded on buses or stuck sleeping in classrooms. residents cleaning out grocery store shelves stripping them down to the bear bones. >> better to be safe than sorry. >> reporter: streets which two weeks ago were gridlocked, scores of cars abandoned.

it's the second wave expected tonight that has officials on edge. >> the amount of ice that we're looking at is catastrophic. trees will come down, take down the power lines. >> reporter: georgia power asking states for assistance in case of massive outtajs. and last night's winter weather brought problems that are expected, but that's nothing compared to what's coming later tonight. >> that's part of the situation, right, what comes and when. we're fortunate to have indra petersons watching it for us. what do we see? >> the biggest concern here is that there are two waves. the wave coming through this morning not as strong as the next one expected tomorrow. take a look, here's the problem. we're talking about temperatures below freezing and then right at the freezing mark and then above freezing at the gulf.

we have that icing in the middle and then even the snow behind that. this is why that forecast is so tricky. all dependent on how cold that air, how far south that air goes. you have the potential for almost an inch of ice in atlanta. half inch is all it takes to bring the power lines down. that's only one part of this problem. we are already talking about the threat for even snow. look at the amount. the potential is there for even over a foot of snow in d.c. let's talk about the timing of this. here is the first wave. take a look. we're talking about the rain today and that wintery mix. here's the big guy. this is the one that's really going to be the tough one. notice how much ice and snow is out there. that's tomorrow. then throughout the day and tomorrow night through thursday, where this guy goes is going to make the complete forecast.

kate? >> those snow totals potential sure tell us we need to be ready. thank you so much. alsony this morning, another delay implementing a key part of the health care law. provide insurance for workers or face a penalty. we're live at the white house with more details on this latest move this morning. >> reporter: you said it. this is yet another delay for that employer mandate in obamacare. and it comes after it had already been pushed back for one year. now the new rule is employers with 50 to 99 workers have until 2016 to provide coverage or pay a penalty. more than 100 workers, they have to provide to 70% of the employees by next year, 05% of

the employees -- 95% of the employees the year after that. the republicans saying this is yet another example of the white house picking and choosing which parts of this law to implement on time. they say no, this is about respecting the feedback they were getting from companies. officials from the companies saying they want add more streamline process for dealing with this mandate. there's a political implication as this pushing the employer mandate beyond the 2014 election cycle and right smack dab into the middle of the 2016 election cycle. democrats of course insisting that the law is working. they're defending it saying, look at the enrollment numbers. they're going up and that is proof that the law is working. >> both can be right, right? we'll have to be following this is see if they can figure out a

solution. we have for you as well dramatic new video of a u.s. army raid capturing a top terror suspect. it's shedding new light on special forces tactics as the white house debates waging a risky new strike against another top target. barbara star is at the pentagon this morning. >> good morning. we are getting extraordinary insights into how the u.s. goes after terrorism suspects. in this newly released security camera footage obtained by "the washington post," you can see a white van pull up to next to a vehicle on the streets. it was last october. watch as an elite squad of delta commandos jump out and grab al libi. he was wanted for his alleged

role in the 1998 al qaeda bombings of the u.s. embassies in kenya. after his dramatic capture, he was taken to awaiting military warship and brought to federal court in new york where he pled not guilty to terrorism charges. his wife told cnn, al libi had long ago left al qaeda, but the u.s. had been tracking him and moved in determined to send the message he would face justice. but raids like this one aren't always an option. more often, the u.s. relies on drone strikes. right now, inside the obama administration, discussions are underway about watching a military drone -- launching a military drone to kill a specific mesh citizen -- american citizen overseas who the u.s. believes is a threat. the story was first reported by the associated press. no one will say who the person

is or where they are hiding. >> the administration's argument is that this is an individual that's playing an important role in an armed group that's conducting hostilities against the united states. and the options for going after this individual are limited to just this way. they can't capture them. they can't get the local government to involve itself. and so, therefore, this is the only option left. >> but the proposed tactic is controversial. >> this debate going on within the administration is a debate that's based on secret evidence, secret laws, secret interpretations of laws being hidden from courts, being hidden from congress, being hidden from the american people. >> there are americans fighting in yemen and pakistan, plenty of concern that they could return

to the u.s. and carry out attacks. >> thank you for that. let's take a look at your other headlines. u.s. embassy officials in afghanistan are confirming that two civilian contractors killed in a suicide bombing monday were both americans. six other people were injured in that attack. officials say an islamic militant group has already claimed responsibility. >> a major development in a cold case that has haunted the washington d.c. area for nearly four decades. a person of interest has been identified in connection with the disappearance of 12-year-old sheila lion and her sister katherine. that man is a convicted sex offender and is currently behind bars in another state. >> new this morning, a 30-year sentence for a merks can man in the shooting death of a border agent.

manuel oh sore yoe air lan necessary pled guilty. the case was controversial because two rifles found at the scene were connected to the "fast and furious" operation. happening today, new jersey lawmakers expanding their investigation into possible misconduct by governor chris christie's administration. cnn has learned as many as 18 new subpoenas will be issued today. a request for information about whether christie flew over the gridlock in a held to wanter. he has denied to know anything about the gridlock until after it occurred. thanks so much. as we've been reporting this morning, just a few minutes ago, actress and legendary star shirley temple has died at 85.

michelle, a long life, a long list of accomplishments. >> yes. >> first describe -- everyone knows her name. everyone remembers her on film. describe how big of a star shirley temple was. >> like you have been saying, she began singing, acting dancing at the age of 2 and 3. to describe how big of a star she was, by the age of 7, she was leading the box office. and think about this. today we kind of lod actors and right now, we're thinking wow, isn't kevin hart one of the biggest actors because he's led three weeks in a row. shirley temple led the box office three years in a row. she was hired by 1950 to be a homemaker, but she leaves this kind of wake in her path.

there's a drink named after her. those curls are famous, they're named after her. she was then went essential child star. you're looking at her on the screen. that's all you had to see was that good ship lollipop to know how big of a star shirley temple was. you know, she married at the age of 17. she did marry very young. that was her first marriage. she did have a second marriage. she does have three children as well. she did die in san francisco at the age of 85. i'm not sure that there are any other child stars that could ever be compared to just how big she was. i mean, you think about -- there's really no comparison. >> i think you're absolutely right. she lists those three children in a g&a i was reading from her

a while back. but you really cannot pay tribute to shirley temple without taking a moment to listen to her from one of her iconic movies. let's take a moment ♪ animal crackers in my soup ♪ i have fun swallowing animals one by one ♪ ♪ in every bowl of soup i see lions and tigers watching me ♪ >> it just makes you smile. those curls on that head. yes, she did many things in her life, but i think sh can be very proud to be remembered for that adorable face. she was such an ambitious woman. she was a child star, yes. but then she had a completely different chapter of her life

early on. really, serving the u.s. government. what career path would you want to follow, at one point she said she would have wanted to be in the fbi or a pie salesman. i thought that was very par for the course for shirley temple maybe. >> absolutely. and you're right. she did go into this life of service. she became an ambassador for the u.s. she translated that hollywood life into somewhat of a political life. she did translate it into service and kind of start, you know, be more serious and taking life a little more serious and doing work for the united states. her first husband was on arre-- army corps private. it kind of started shaping who

she was. it's interesting because she was also a bit of a survivor. she survived breast cancer. in 1972 she did undergo surgery for that. so you think about everything she's gone through and everything she survived and everything she's done in her life, it really is amaze sfwlg it sure it. you can wonder those planning the academy awards are trying to figure out some way to right any pay tribute to shirley temple. much more coverage honoring and looking into the legacy of shirley temple black throughout our show. coming up on "new day," we'll keep up on this, but we're going to tell you other news as well. of course, we have the olympics. today, shaun white is set to hit the halfpipe. we're going to talk to you about

sochi. we know they've been using artificial snow. how's it affecting the games? >> reporter: you guys can see me. i'm not even wearing a coat right now. it is 55 degrees up here in the mountains. i got to tell you, it's caused soft snow and some problems with the venues, particularly on the half pipe. this was the half pipe earlier today. that's dozens of workers holding a giant water hose. they are trying to water down the bottom of the pipe to get some ice going there. hannah teeter yesterday called the conditions of the half pipe quote, crappy. riders are saying right now the bottom of the pipe is moguly. we're not all experts on the half pipe the way these elite

athletes are, but even i know, when you come down, you want to land on something flat. you don't want to land on a big series of bumps. they're in qualifications as we speak. they're hopeful it will cool down and the event tonight will go off smoothly. >> add that to the list of challenges that they're dealing with with these winter games. i can't believe it's 55 degrees. >> competitors made a good point. they said this isn't the downhill where conditions are part of the event. it's just part of skiing is balance and dealing with -- >> but you create a half pipe. >> right. supposed to be about the tricks, not about what i encounter when i hand. >> for some reason, we seem to be very chilly in the studio today. >> very cold.

♪ i want i want to make mud pies ♪ >> little girls everywhere can relate to talking to their dollies. let's start with our top headline. remembering a hollywood icon. shirley temple has died. probably the biggest child star.

starring in several hit films before the age of ten. later in life, she went on a very different career, one in the public service. shirley temple was 85 yeersz old. city of atlanta is bracing for bround two. that area is about to get slammed with a snow and ice storm that could be more devastating and dangerous than the one that paralyzed the city just two weeks ago. people in the area are clearing out super market shelves in advance. >> car bombs accidentally detonated one. in addition, the blast tipped off officials to the training camp in an orchard north of baghdad. officials say the incident shows that terrorist groups are making a strong comeback.

a sacramento tv stakes was at the right place at the right time. check out this dramatic takedown caught on tape. they say this man ran from them earlier in the day. he hopped over a fence, grabbed a bike and tried to take off right towards the camera. he apparently had several outstanding warrants. >> now, a double dose of under age driving that has two children in hot water. in colorado, a 10-year-old cited for careless driving after plowing right into, no joke, adept of motor vehicles. apparently the temptation was just too great. and in minnesota, a 14-year-old boy said he felt compelled to return an abandoned school bus to his depoet.

he struck several gas pumps. fortunately, no one was injured in either incident. a case against underage driving? no, mr. cuomo? >> fist of all, it is clearly stupid. if i think what you're referring to is what i said yesterday about allowing your child to practice driving with you could actually payoff as it did in the case of a child who saved his mother's life. that's the case i would make. >> now we go to a matter that actually does matter. closing arguments could begin today in the so-called loud music murder trial. prosecutors rested their case monday and the defense is expected to wrap up testimony maybe as early as day. the big question, michael dunn, accused of shooting a 17-year-old after a dispute about loud music, will he take the stand today. we're in jacksonville with the

latest. >> reporter: the jury is expected to be back inside that courtroom at 9:00 eastern. yesterday, testimony got so graphic, jordan davis' parents had to step outside. it was an emotional day in court as jurors saw autopsy photos and the bloodstained clothes worn by jordan davis the night he died. >> over here, it perforated the light lung and continued on behind the heart and in front of the spinal come lump. >> reporter: prosecutors say 47-year-old michael dunn opened fire on davis and three friends during an argument over loud music outside in jacksonville gas station. dunn claims he fired the shots in self-defense, telling police

officers he saw a gun. in her testimony, the medical examiner says evidence shows davis was leaning away from the door and not toward dunn as the defense suggests. ronald davis told the jury about the emotional visit he got from the teens who were with his son when he died. >> they were so sorry that my son was killed. >> reporter: dunn's family and friends took the stand or the defense describing him as a mild and kind-hearted man. >> are you aware of his reputation for peacefulness? >> yes. very nice guy. >> i've always thought he was a gentleman. >> reporter: it's unclear if dunn will take the stand. >> he's the only one that can testify that there was a gun. he's got to put it there. the only one that says he saw it is michael dunn.

>> reporter: so dunn could take the stand, so could a human stress expert who typically counsels police officers after shootings. >> thank you. >> this is complicated. people compare it to the george zimmer man trial. it's really nothing like it. >> you don't think so? >> i don't think there's any analogy. here, also, the interrogation tapes didn't get in. all of us are operating off information that the jurors may not get in any way. of course, michael dunn does not have to testify, but he may be the only one that can make the case of why he did what he did on this occasion. he may have to if he wants to plead self-defense. coming up next on "new day," we're going to look back at the life of the legendary shirley temple. a film critic will join us with

a chance to do that. let's talk about the tremendous life of shirley temple. how are you? >> i'm fine thank you. i'm sad. i'm glad she had a full and long life. >> it certainly was a long life, a full life. it's not just this star we are mourning. a grandmother, a mother, a wife of 55 years. she started performing at the age of 3 1/2 years old. >> she was a genuine phenomenon. hard to describe to younger people who may be unfamiliar with her just how amazingly popular she was. she was perhaps at one time -- not perhaps. she was the most famous individual in the civil liezed world. she was adored. she was loved. she was idol liezed by people of all ages. and not just in america, but

around the globe. >> and that poise as such a young one, it's really unparalleled. do you think we have ever seen anything like that again? >> well, you know, there have been very popular child stars. there were popular child stars before her during the silent movie era, and many since. but no one ever attained the -- the astonishing heights she did. you know, she -- she -- she came along during the great depression of the 1930s. >> uh-huh. >> and many people think that that was a big part of it. it was the timing that at a time when people, you know, were -- were, you know, struggling to put bread on the table, when they escaped to the movies to try to forget their troubles. she was kind of a living symbol of everything that was good, everything that was pure and

innocent. and so -- so she was in the right place at the right time, you know, to put it mildly. >> but it wasn't all lollipops. it's interesting to see, like many child stars, she certainly struggled as an actress from the child star into a young woman. her family struggled with money. their lavish lifestyle had eaten up many of their funds. >> oh, no, it wasn't easy at all. she also had -- you know, she went through what people sometimes call that awkward age, you know, when she was, i think, at 10-or 11 she found herself inemployed sort of unwanted for a time. the studio where she worked throughout her childhood, they dropped her. and -- and she -- she didn't

know what failure was. she didn't know what real life was to a very real degree although she had a reasonably normal home life. she'd never been to school. she didn't even go to a studio school. they tutored her privately. she said that had it not turned out that way, that her mother was forced to enroll her in a very good private girl's school in los angeles, her life might not have turned out the way it did. she had to learn to socialize for the first time. and she was shirley temple for crying out loud. >> she was shirley temple and she went onto be ambassador shirley temple. she had an incredibly second or even arguably third act. you say poor little rich girl was one of her best films.

>> yeah, i think so. >> always a pleasure to talk to you. thanks so much for remembering the great actress, shirley temple. really a triple threat she was. >> absolutely. there was nothing she couldn't do. i think she almost unwitnessi unwitnessingly paved the way for her later career. she was a diplomat as a little girl. >> so very true. thank you for sharing your remembrances of this tremendous laically. shirley temple black, dead at 85. >> strong point about how she was more than an actor. she was largely symbolic to the country at that time. and in many ways, never grew up. so many people will always see her that way. my 4-year-old orders a shirley temple when we go out. >> at some point, if we don't, we want to order a shirley temple. >> and it's a tasty drink.

beloved mother. shirley temple has passed away at the age of 85. more on her remarkable life throughout the hour. also, breaking overnight, u.s. officials confirming that two civilian contractors killed in a suicide bombing monday were both americans. six other people were injured in the attack. officials say now islamic militant group has claimed responsibility. the fbi carrying out a major anty mafia a little bit z in new york. it is named "new bridge" and it is targeting dozens of people. arrests have been made in naples. breaking overnight, iran says it tested two new miss ls and those tests were successful.

the u.s. says it is a danger and is being monitored. south korea is planning reunions tomorrow. there's no agenda set for the talks. but a top priority is ensuring a smooth operation for the reunions later this month. this will be the first meetings of divided families since 2010. >> right now, there's said to be a fierce debate within the obama administration about whether to target an american in overseas. he is suspected of plotting attacks against the u.s. sources telling cnn that several are involved in the talks, but ultimately the president would have to sign off on any operation. the drones are not the only

weapon against tear rich. new this morning, a first look at a army raid that captured al libi. the surveillance video show special forces wasting no time. the capture taking under 30 seconds. he's being held on conspiracy charges. the footage first obtained here by "the washington post." the south bracing for another winter blast. the snow and ice could be even worse this time around. preemptive measures are being taken with states of emergency in mississippi, georgia and alabama. let's start on the ground in atlanta this morning. good morning, nick. >> reporter: good morning. we did have a storm that moved through here last night. the worse that we saw was in the grocery stores where people

flocked to supermarkets to make sure they had enough groceries before the second round hits. it's what's predicted to happen later tonight, more snow coming than what we saw two weeks ago. any slight bit could cause major problems here in the southeast. >> all right. there's uncertainty because last time the authorities got it wrong. this time, more complicated. let's get to indra petersons. >> the warning is out and the warning is strong. the national weather service now categorizing this ice storm to be catastrophic. some places looking for over an inch of ice and we're not stopping there. eventually it will turn into a snow storm especially as it makes its way up the coastline where d.c. could see its worst snowstorm in five years.

some models bringing even 14 inches of snow. here's the first wave. this guy making its way through throughout the day, exiting overnight. >> the second wave even stronger than the first wave. this guy expected to make its way through starting tomorrow night, lining that coastline. the closer it is to the coastline, we're going to be talking about the threat for heavy snow. it could mean 5 inches or even 14 inches through d.c. chris and kate in. >> i'll take it here. thanks to much a newly released government report says there is no evidence that the cyber attacks against retailers were coordinated to hurt the u.s. economy. the report does come after recent attacks on both target and neiman marcus. new this morning, the obama administration is giving mid-sized and larger companies a break, allowing them more time

to comply with obamacare rules. they'll now have another year, that's until 2016, to provide affordable coverage to their workers. larger companies are getting a break too. they have to provide to 70% in 2015. breaking over yiegt, republican leaders going to push to increase the debt ceiling limit in exchange for undoing cuts to military. they briefed lawmakers last night in hopes of passing it this week, maybe even wednesday before leaving for a week-long rece recess. but many conservatives say they aren't going for it. we're live at the white house with much more. this is a fight that's been long brewing. where do things stand now? >> reporter: right now the white house is balking at this latest

proposal which would raise the debt ceiling along with restoring pension cuts aimed at military veterans. jay carney said that the white house is quote, just not going to pay a ran some in exchange for congress doing its job. there is pressure building on this process. late last week the treasury secretary said they have to raise the debt ceiling by february 27th or the nation runs the risk of going into default. at this point, there is the hour glass that is starting to, i guess, loom large over this town. lawmakers are scheduled to leave town tomorrow, as a matter of fact. so that does really compress the timetable. that means when lawmakers return at the end of the month, they may only have two days to work out a deal. house republicans are saying they don't even have a proposal at this point that could get

past the house. democrats are arguing, if they could pass a clean debt ceiling bill, that would have the votes. new jersey governor chris christie getting new pressure in the bridgegate investigation. 18 new subpoenas have been issued. a and the longer it drags on, the less love he's getting from his own party. >> the main reason chris christie is here is to give a public speech. actually, it's more of a q&a at the chicago economic club. that is going to be a roomful of a thousand plus pretty influential business people here in illinois. that is really a prime job he has as chairman of the republican governor's association. coming here, we talked to some people at the rga that wanted to under score that he raised $6

million last month alone in january. why are we told that? because they want to make sure that we see the fact that he still has fund raising prowess despite the scandal that he's involved in. they're trying to beat back stories about the fact that the two states he has visited, he has not appeared publicly with the governors or the gub toerl candidates. those running to unseat him haven't finished the primary yet. >> let's strip away the reaction and get to what matters in terms of the investigation. what do we think about these new subpoenas? is this expanding in a meaningful way or just part of the process. what's the take? >> most of the subpoenas are going to aides of the key players who already got the subpoenas, like bridget ann

kelly and other people involved and may have the answer to why this all happened. so what a source close to the investigation told me last night is that they want to see if these aides and associates have correspondence that they sent on behalf of the key players and so forth. perhaps the most interesting is the fact they are trying to get information about who was on a helicopter ride with chris christie which he took on 9/11 going to a 9/11 memorial ceremony. they want to see if daifld wildstein was on that helicopter ride. he of course now is a notorious character in all of this. he was clearly involved in some way in the lane closures. christie says he was not on that helicopter ride. still gives us an indication of the kind of direction this investigation is going. clearly, it is just the

beginning of this investigation, at least this particular part of it in the state house. >> i think you picked the right one to focus on. the investigative committees they can issue the subpoenas pretty much willie nilly. also this idea of whether or not the governor would be aware of the lane closures by having felony over them. this is still about fundamentally whether or not chris christie was driving the decision as political punishment to close those lanes. we'll see where it leads. also happening today, voters in san diego are going to the polls to choose their next mare. two city council members are vying to replace that man after more than 20 women accused him of sexual harassment. the center of the scandal was settled out of court for $250,000. florida start and possible

2016 presidential contender may be showing his political wiles with this situation. he's refusing to answer the burning question of have you ever smoked pot. rubio told them he doesn't answered publicly because he says they wouldn't believe him or kids would think it's okay. he said he made quote enough dumb decisions as a teen and didn't need pot or alcohol contributing to more. not sure what it means, but that was his answer. according to the associated press, government safety data and news reports dating back to the '90 ez show pilots attempted to land at wrong airports than you may realize. daring rescue to show you in florida after workers doing repairs on a rail bridge were

left dangling over a river. officials say a scaffolding collapsed. one seriously trapped underneath debris. he was rushed to a local hospital and listed in serious condition. >> summer call tools may have exposed 18 patients to a rare and deadly brain disease. they took place in winston-salem last month. experts say it is incurable and it quickly turns fatal. we're he cnn center. this is terrifying. >> it is terrifying. as you said, it's an awful disease. but the chances that it spread because of this patient are really quite small. it's called kruts felt jacob disease. no one realized the patient had it. later they realized it, but by that time, they had used the

surgical instruments on 18 other people. they sterilized the instruments, but not in the way that you would with someone with kruts felt jacob disease. experts say the chances are very small. the reason that they know this is this has happened before in other hospitals over the years and it doesn't seem the disease was spread to other patients. let's take a look at what is in the papers this morning. first up, in the wall street journal, the u.s. military now revising plans to withdraw troops from afghanistan. they want to wait until the president leaves office in afghanistan. >> in the washington post, a new report to be released is blaming the white house for height nd threats in benghazi for attacks.

the washington post also reports republicans on the house armed services committee largely exonerated the u.s. military from responsibility. and in the new york times, the governor's landmark billion-settlement is the tarkt of -- target of a new lawsuit. a suit by the nonprofit group claims the justice department violated the constitutional separation of powers by striking the deal without a judge's blessing. chris? american eyes around the world are on snowboarder shaun white today. losing to another competitor is one thing, but there are growing concerns that the course could mess up the competition. it is so warm and lumpy and sloppy, it may be unsafe. they are scrambling to fix the course, but there is doubt

whether it will be great shape by competition time. >> meanwhile, the american women's hockey team made the defense look like swiss cheese on the way to a 9-0 win. they set an olympic record with three goals in less than a minute in the first period. it assured the americans a spot in the semi-fie falls against canna. the american men kickoff play thursday. a former figure skater is apologizing this morning for a racist twitter post. irina rodnina says the post was posted by hackers. monday she did an about face saying quote, i respect the obama family and apologize for not clearly stating earlier that i don't support the photos or

racism in any way. the olympic hopeful trapped in an elevator monday. he tweeted out this photo as proof writing the following, no one is going to believe this. why? this comes after he got stuck inside a locked bathroom on saturday and had to break his way through the door to get out because he didn't have any cell phone. he said he was in there for an hour and no one came to help him. who knows where he's going to get stuck next. that poor guy. >> at least this time apparently he wasn't alone. surprised he didn't bash through the door. canada had a gold and a bronze in the women's slopestyle this morning. the u.s. in fourth with six medals after wing silver in that event. the next medals in the next hour in men's and women's cross country. shirley temple black, one of the most eye cop ik stars of --

iconic stars of the 20th century has died at 85. as a child star in the 1030s she may have been the most famous person in the world. nischelle turner is joining us from los angeles. >> it's funny because earlier we had lee nard malton on. he was talking about she may have been the most famous person in the world. she came to prominence during the great depression when a lot of people felt like there wasn't much hope. she gave people hope. when she was given the kennedy center honor, president clinton said as much. roosevelt asked to meet her and thank for for the smiling face

that helped americans through the depression. we've been talking just about her life and her legacy. she started dancing at the age of 2 and singing at the age of 3. and it's that look and that smile that we definitely remember. you know, we also were mentioning that she led the box office for three years straight. just think about that. she led the box office for three years straight. and that was at the age of 7. all of this before most of us even could put a sentence or two together in our lifetimes. but not only did she have this career in hollywood, she did kind of have a second career that she transitioned to after she retired. she retired in 1950 and then went into this life of politics. she ran as a republican to become a congresswoman in

california. she also became a member of the united states delegation to the united nations. she was an ambassador to ghana to czechoslovakia. a lot of things that she did in her lifetime, guys. >> and you're listing off many of those accomplishments. we'll continue to honor her, pay tribute to her throughout the show this morning. one message about how she endured as a figure is that it wasn't until 2006 that she got recognized by the film academy for a lifetime achievement award. >> so many people, younger folks, they know shirley temple because her name is the name of one of america's favorite drinks. >> absolutely my kids know it today. >> mine do too. >> and that matters. very few people have a drink named after them.

an american overseas is accused of plotting against the u.s. here's the question. can the u.s. go after him with a drone strike. would it be legal? if legal, would it be right? who better to discuss this than former attorney general alberto gonzalez. will the defendant, that man, michael dunn, will he take the stand himself? we're going to have an update for you. this is interesting. it says here that a woman's sex drive increases at the age of 80. helps reduce the risk of heart disease. it seems that 80 is the new 18. grannies, bless your heart, you are bringing sexy back!

question because this legal and moral issue is actually being faced by the obama administration because there is an american citizen sent living in pakistan who is linked to al qaeda and believed to be planning attacks against americans. joining us now to discuss this is someone at the center of this debate, former attorney general alberto gonzalez. he's now an attorney at a nashville based law firm. you were at the beginning of the debate about the use of drones, the legal and moral issues raised thereto. so when you look at this situation, please give us a little bit of a background of what the considerations are. >> well, it's a very complicated issue. let me say at the outset that i believe in using drones. they've been very effective on the war on terror. it's a wonderful technology and i think we should continue to do so. i wrote an article about this. and the question is whether or

not the president of the united states on his own authority can designate an american citizen sin overseas as an enemy combatant. the two decision points are whether to put him on the kill list and the second whether or not to execute on the kill order. i think the president has the authority as commander and chief once you identify where a combatant is, to take action, to take him out like you would any other enemy. the reports are the obama administration takes months to find out if he is an enemy combatant. when you're talking about the rights of an american citizen sent, there are certain die process considerations that you

have to take into account. walking into the oval office, i would have advised president obama that a lacky is an enemy combatant. i would also caution, given supreme court decisions, i'm not sure the court would agree with that assessment. >> the first obvious question, does it matter if it's a drone or if it's a weapon in the hand of a u.s. troop member? does it matter in the analysis? probably not, right? >> again, there are two decision points. are you an enemy combatant, and second, are we going to take you out. that's all compressed on the battle shield into one decision point. >> right. but i'm saying once the u.s. makes a decision to kill you, it doesn't matter how they decide to to do it right?

>> absolutely. >> it is complicated, but i think people's minds are in this area. we are so sensitive on what's right to do, what we have the right to do. why doesn't the president of the united states making the decision to kill somebody on foreign soil trigger this as a declaration of war? it seems we have moved past the constitution when it comes to the right to declare war. congress seems to have been taken out of this process. is this right? >> another very difficult question. and i think what the obama administration would rely upon is the authorization to use military force. this is part and parcel a continuation of the attacks of 9/11 and that congress has played a role. i think the administration would argue that congress's continued funding on the war on terror

includes a ta sid greem that these kinds of actions are in fact lawful. i would remind your viewers that i'm sure the administration provides periodic briefings to the congress. congress apparently has to major problems with these kinds of tactics. >> and i appreciate it, judge. it's interesting. there's such a push from members of congress right now saying that the president oversteps his power dmek ikly, yet it seems they've given him a tremendous amount of power when it comes to what war is about in this country. how close are we to making a decision that there's an american citizen sent on american soil who's determined to be a pressing, eminent continuing threat to u.s. safety and using a drone to take him out here in the united states? >> well, that's certainly a consideration. it is a scenario that worries many civil libertarians.

i think we're going to see a continued use of drones because they are so effective. as we talk -- consider the war on terror moving forward, it's very likely that we're going to confront more terrorists here in this country. it's very likely they're going to be american citizens. why wouldn't you use this technology to eliminate this threat? it is something i would be worried about and i suspect the obama administration also is worried about. >> how can american citizens not get the benefit of the courts before they're effectively executed by the united states? i mean in simple legal terms, that's what it's coming down to. >> a due process concern comes into the first consideration whether or not you're an enemy combatant. once that's determined, then the

commander in chief should be able to execute on that order at the moment of his choosing. you may only have minutes or hours. that authority cannot be constrained. when the obama administration has reported, it takes months to designate someone as an enemy combatant. if you have months, why isn't there more due process given to the individual. >> those who want to do the research can see that you are one of the early litigants on this issue as attorney general. so this is a debated area between government and the courts, one that we're going to have to keep developing and understanding about. it seems like, as you say, it will become a larger part of our political practice. if you're interested in this topic, it's an easy google search. you can search for judge gonzalez and you'll understand his history here on the issue as it frames up.

this is something we're going to deal with more, not less. >> let's take another break. new autopsy photos and medical examinations revealed in what's being known as the loud music murder trial. will the evidence hurt michael dunn as he argues he shot an unarmed teen in self defense? t, i can talk to my cousins any time. and then, i got 200 gigs of cloud storage -- free -- so i can get my photos and stuff almost anywhere. others charge for that. surface is such a great deal. i feel like i should tell somebody. hey! ♪ honestly ♪ i want to see you be brave ♪ [ chicken caws ] [ male announcer ] when your favorite food starts a fight, fight back fast with tums. heartburn relief that neutralizes acid on contact

welcome back to "new day." let's take a look at your headlines. america's little darling shirley temple black has died. she was perhaps the biggest child star ever. she rose to fame back in the

1930s in movies like curly top and bright eyes. she later served as u.s. ambassador to both ghana and czechoslovakia. shirley temple black was 85. hoping for the best and bracing for the worst. a snow and ice storm could be even worse than the one that paralyzed the city of atlanta just two weeks ago. they are now preparing for the deep freeze. states of emergency have been declared in georgia, alabama and assist assist. >> small businesses getting are reprieve from obamacare's employer mandate. fewer than a hundred workers will get a one-year break and now have until 2016 to start providing coverage. developing this morning, officials are trying to figure out what exactly caused an

explosion at a new hampshire plant that shook walls and shattered windows. 15 people were taken to the hospital. all indications are the explosion was an accident. well, it would appear the ice age has arrived in one chicago neighborhood. look at this. near subzero temperatures and a burst water main have turned it into a frozen mess. no matter highway hard they try, frustrated drivers just can't free their cars. this one is frozen, not for the faint of heart. chris? >> tough. some of the conditions are so bad they should probably leave the cars where they are. closing arguments could come as early as today in the so-called loud music trial. the big question, will michael dunn take the stand today.

so far, the defense has done lts to prove -- little to prove self defense. we have sunny hostin on the ground down there. she's been in the courtroom in jacksonville, understanding the situation. thank you for joining us. >> reporter: good morning. >> i have been doing my analysis this week on the basis of the interrogation tapes and the letter that dunn has written on this, what of that information is before this jury? >> reporter: absolutely none of that information is before this jury. and i think that was a tactical piece, sort of a tactic done by the prosecution because they've learned from the zimmerman case. in that case, george zimmerman did not have to testify on his own behalf because all of that information had been put forth to the jury by the prosecution. this time, they didn't make that

crucial mistake. if michael dunn wants to take self defense, we has got to take the witness stand. and i think that is going to happen today. i stayed in the courtroom after the crowds had left yesterday when the attorneys and the judge were going over jury instruction. angela corey, the prosecutor stood up and said he doesn't get this instruction just based on his opening statement. and so everyone recognizes in the courtroom that there will be no self defense claim unless michael dunn gets on the witness stand. >> great stuff. let's unpack it for you at home. angela corey, that's the prosecutor from the george zimmerman case. when she's saying prosecutors learned from the last time, also remember very unusual for prosecutors to not want interrogation tapes to come into a trial. so a big gamble for them betting

that they're going to have to force dunn to take the stand. you do not get the benefit of self defense if you do not put on evidence of self defense. they dwro have not done that yet. theoretical theoretically, dunn is the only one that could do it. what does he need to do? >> reporter: rereally has to plain to this jury that he was in reasonable fear of imminent danger or death. he said he felt she saw either the barrel of a shotgun or some sort of stick. fearing for his life, he then got out of the car and shot into the car, we know now, about ten times. i will tell you though, chris, even if he says that, on cross-examination there are reams of information for cross-examination. we're talking about letters that he wrote from jail that have sort of racist overtones.

we also know he made hundreds of phone calls from jail. i think on cross-examination, this is going to be very, very difficult for michael dunn. but again, if he wants self defense, he's got to get on the witness stand. >> she said earlier, that stuff won't get in. the prosecutors can use him on cross-examination to prove prior inconsistent statements. if he says, no, i love rap music, they can say no, that's not what you said earlier. a couple bad facts that i want you to measure for us before i let you go. he says i was reasonably afraid that this man was going to try to kill me. didn't they put on evidence from a forensic expert who says they believe the victim was leaning away inside the car as opposed to showing some sign of exiting to come toward michael dunn. is that true, and if so, how

big? >> reporter: yeah, the medical examiner did a pretty good job on the witness stand explaining the entry and exit wounds. she indicated with her own body that he would have been leaning away. she also did say it would be difficult to tell with complete accuracy what his position was in the car. after shooting, he gets into the car, drives away to his hotel room, has pace sa, has a drink and goes to sleep. i think that's a worse fact than this other fact about the body positions. i hear today they're going to call what's called an acute stress reaction to explain away that kind of behavior. i guess i'm going to hear from him today. >> there's a high potential factor whether the jury's going to believe it or not. it's something you have to take into consideration. doesn't mean it's going to be

that compelling to the jury. this behavior goes to common sense more than it goes to forensics. more people monitoring this trial, no question it's a big one. the defense had such a stronger case with george zimmerman than they do with michael dunn. it exceeds any kind of comparison. >> big day today for that trial that's for sure. coming up next, more on the death of the incredible shirley temple. we'll look back at her life and her impact on film. that's going to be coming up next. plus, a new group of dogs making waves at this year's dog show. so, how some mutts are finally getting their due.

♪ and i was in a year or two or three. i'll be happy as can be ♪ welcome back to "new day." we continue to follow the breaking news this morning. shirley temple black has passed away at the age of 85. she was america's sweet heart back in the 1930s. as an adult she devoted her life to public service, including dibmatic posts as -- diplomatic posts as a u.s. ambassador. we're going to talk more about why she is such an icon. it kind of speaks to what she represented during the time she was such a star, right? >> she obviously became a huge star during the great depression. she was a beautiful distraction from all the things that were happening. franklin roosevelt himself said

she was an inspiration to people during a time people were going through tough times. she lifted people up so far at a time when they needed lifting up. >> it's interesting because that was such a brief period of time. when she looks back on her whole life, she counts other things as her greatest victories, being a mother, a grandmother, her time in the diplomatic community. it must be such a surreal thing for somebody to look back and know this is how they will be remembered. >> she proved you can have a second act in movies. she was a great child star. it came to an end. they began to bind her breasts because they didn't want to show people she was a little girl anymore. she has a career as a diplomat, as a republican fundraiser. she goes from a child star to

something that was more serious, being part of the end of the cold war. a very big -- very big weighted issues. >> when you compare her to the pressure that's on celebrities today, you can make an easy case that sh is the best ever. and here's why. the metaphor value of what she represented, what was put on her and that she not only survived it, but she thrived. we see so many of them fail with the pressure of success on them these days. she lived on. she led a full life. i don't know that we've ever seen her equal at that age. any way you want to look at it, she was the best. >> she also impacted her on-screen relationships. here she was in the mid '30s appearing on screen. it was a time when people

weren't used to seeing interracial couples on screen. it did lay the groundwork for doing that more and more in hollywood. she helped create this whole industry of innocence i think. that's what i like to call it. on the disney channel, every few months there's any star. they seem to be getting into trouble. she managed to avoid that. she showed you can do something different with your years. >> do you have indication she was aware of her impact at such a young age? >> she was very aware. she tells a story that when she was 6, she stopped believing in santa claus because the department store santa asked her for her autograph. you have an awareness of who you

are and you become much more majeure very quickly and still getting bags of fan mail well into her 70s and 80s. >> they're still the be shirley temple the best thing that happen to grena. >> agreed. >> you want to see what a kid can do at a young age. this is as good as it t gets. >> the 25 greatest actresses ever in hollywood, she's ranked against adult actresses. she ranked among the greats. >> passing away at 85 years old after a long life. many acts in her career. look at that adorable face. shirley temple-black 85 years old. thanks so much. we're going to take a break

president clinton put it this way a. >> she was 7 years old when president roosevelt asked to meet her to thank her r for the smiling face that helped america through the great depression. shirley temple began her career at age three playing spunky, optimistic characters at a time when the public saw little reason to be hopeful. born in santa monica, california april 23. her mother claimed her first words were the lyrics to a song. by age six, she had appeared in 20 movies and been the top box office star for four years. ticket sales alone don't begin to describe her popularity. girls flocked to by her doll. she made a transition from films

like this to grown up roles. next she switched from life in the public spotlight to life in public service. in 1967 she made an unsuccessful attempt to run for congress. a couple of years later she became a diplomat, served as a u.s. delegate to the u.s. nations and am bass dor to ghana. her teen able marriage lasted five years and produced one daughter. her second marriage to charles black lasted to his death in 2005. they had two children. >> on her very career, president clinton commented. >> in fact she has to be the only person who both saved the entire movie studio from failure and contributed to the fall of communise mmuni communism. >> she was diagnosed with breast cancer and one of the first

phenomenal. he's one that expressed concerns early about the conditions. he's been able to handle them when a lot of other riders haven't. we've seen falls and riders hit the pipe. sean has done great, at the top of his group now which means he'll advance. we'll let you know as competition progresses here on cnn. >> thank you very much coming to us from sochi. >> men's and women's medal events in cross country psychiatskiing underway. canada, nine medals after picking up gold and bronze in slope style. u.s. won silver in the same event. following that and more news ahead on "new day." what would the dynamic of the presidential race look like if hillary clinton gives it another go? a new book with new behind the

. welcome back to "new day." a new book comes out today offering a glimpse into how hillary clinton might shape a presidential campaign. also sharing information from clinton's time as secretary of state. it's called "hrc state secrets and rebirth of hillary clinton." >> joining us, good friends of mine. great to see you guys. thanks for coming to new york to talk about this. there's a lot in this book to talk about. the one thing before it was released the hit list. this important chapter of the book. it's not uncommon as we know for politicians to have lists if you will, formal and informal of people that helped you and hurt you that they will remember. what's unique about the clinton hit list, if you will? >> more than anything they have

the power to reward and punish. we didn't talk about who they followed through on. one example, the california congressman who got matched up with another california congressman. sherman supported clinton, come 2012, bill clinton endorses brad sherman. burrman launches this campaign to get bill clinton to back off. don't do fund-raisers, don't come to my district. he gets others involved to get clinton to stop. he finally goes to hillary clinton in the dramatic moment she lobbying on trade bills on capitol hill. he says your husband is campaigning against me. maybe you can call him off. she smiles, laughs and says she's out of politics. burrman loses the race. >> exactly. there's also another part of

this. the role of bill clinton is not only important in the book. it's important for the future of hillary clinton. one part of the book is getting a lot of attention talking about the role of bill clinton and how hillary is pushing him a side a little bit n. part of the book it says this. while she had been on the mock stage at the convention center, bill delivered edits to her speech. he would rip up the structure and add his own flourishes. hillary was having none of it. she later declared, it's my speech, as they left to find the president. >> what does that say? >> he's actually very involved in everything she does. if he can be the same guy he was for barack obama in 2008 it will be good. if he can model what he did for barack obama in 2012 where he talked to people in big events, didn't do the one on one

interview. he talked to people and played the explainer in chief, it's going to be okay. i think they're banking on that. >> bill clinton and the monica lieu enski affair is back in headlines. now new documents revealed by a close confidant of hillary clinton. what do you think when you spoke to her inner circle well, tried to get into the mind of hillary clinton, what do you think new documents about their time at the white house that come out. what do you think that reveals about hillary clinton? do you think that past is going to be a problem for her future in 2016? >> mostly it reveals little bits of her character and feelings from 20 years ago. that's part of the portrait. the american public knows hillary clinton well. if they read this book, they'll know her better. i'm not sure there's anything that came out in the documents particularly shocking or surprising. certainly some things that probably were her emotional

feelings she shared with her friend that she might not want the world to look into. >> she's probably not surprised the past will be back up. when you're in the public eye so many years. >> that's part of the book. we talk about not only how she'd govern because we look at her time, but this is her comeback story. people take issue. they say how can she come back? what's she coming back from? she did. she's come back her whole life. during the monica scandal she was bruised and battered and rose again and became senator. in the 2008 campaign she lost, this bruising campaign and rose again to secretary of state. you know, this might not be the last chapter for her. >> i want to ask you guys. of course when you write a book that's politically focused. you're going to write a book and get reviews. another well respected reporter in washington join than carl wrote a review.

i want your reaction. he said there's some new reporting but it's buried in mixed metaphors and cliche ridden praise of mrs. clinton's brilliance. what do you say? >> my wife would have disappointed to hear that. this is a book of hillary clinton's come back. we bring you details inside. we get into how she makes decisions. we talked to 200 people, a lot close to her. their stories in a lot of cases. jonathan and i share a first name but not an opinion on this book. >> bottom line, is she going to run in 2016? she's somewhere in the process of deciding. i want your take on her inner circle and what they think of. that i asked joe biden last week if he had a good reason not to

run? he said he did not have a good reason not to run. does hillary clinton have a reason? she still hasn't made a decision yet. so we'll see. i think the train is running. it's picking up steam. you know, if you were to ask me or people close to her, they would bet on the fact she is running. >> jonathan, you said it well. the train is picking up steam. she has to to decide whether to run or not run. >> she is running for all intensive purposes. she could put the brakes on at any time. i don't think anything expects that. >> couldn't be releasing at a more perfect time. a lot of pages to read through. i'm in the process of reading it. thanks guys. go pick up a copy today. >> thank you. >> chris, over to you. coming up on "new day," is an nfl locker room really ready

for a gay player? silly question or legitimate concern? we're going to talk to donte stall worth who has a lot to say on the top in that might surprise you. worth who has a lo on the top in that might surprise you. peoi go to angie's listt for all kinds of reasons. to gauge whether or not the projects will be done in a timely fashion and within budget. angie's list members can tell you which provider is the best in town. you'll find reviews on everything from home repair to healthcare. now that we're expecting, i like the fact i can go onto angie's list and look for pediatricians. the service providers that i've found on angie's list actually have blown me away. find out why more than two million members count on angie's list. angie's list -- reviews you can trust.

the bridge gate scandal. investigators are issue 18 today. among the recipients, members of chris christie's office and port authority officials. and the first silver of the olympics thanks hogan in the ski slope. sean white is featured in the half pipe today. we're waiting to see if he takes to the slopes to compete because of danger there. we're always updating. go to cnn.com for the latest. chris? michael sam reveals he's gay and there's been social media. richie incognito says it takes guts to do what you did. another tweets hats off to you michael. some suggest nfl is not ready for a gay player. our next guest, former nfl wide

receiver donte stallworth. not only great hands but great incite on this. let me set the table. herm edwards respected guy and coach says a lot of team and management may not want to deal with the distraction that comes with this, may affect the locker room. what do you say? >> i think first of all, i actually know he werim. he's a good guy. he was from his own point of view expressing from head coaches and general manager across the league. unfortunately for that type of thinking this is a new day and age. society is moving towards more acceptance of the lgtb community. i think michael sam will have an opportunity to be successful in the nfl. guys will rally around him. the opportunity we have to have

michael sam in the nfl is to have a better understanding of what the lgbt community is all about. for me personally that's one of the things that actually moved me towards being more of an advocate and ally for the community the fact i had the opportunity to be around gays living here in miami. i was a little homophobic 10 to 15 years ago. i just -- once i started hanging out with a couple different people, i saw how ignorant i was and how much of a bigot i had been. i i had been called different names for whatever reasons. being a professional athlete, from where i grew up, being the color of my skin. i said to myself, i can't act this way towards gays. i'm getting this same type of

treatment. i think michael sam is very courageous. i applaud him in everything he's done. he'll get a big round of support c coming into the nfl. >> let's talk about why you say that. you were on ten teams in six years. in the locker rooms you've been in, were there gay players there? what was the best and worst things in perspective to what happened to them. >> obviously nothing official. in the locker room, there are immature guys and guys that would make light or make jokes towards the other guys. you know, when michael sam did decide to make his announcement about him being openly gay coming to the nfl draft, i think that helps him and his teammates out on whatever team decides to draft him. it's not -- i've heard people

saying they're taking a chance on this kid. this kid is very talented. i know people within the missouri family that are really close to that team and to michael. they say he's a great kid and a hard worker. at the end of the day, when you're a professional athlete you could care less what someone does off the field as long as it's not hampering your chance to win ball games. he's going to be okay. >> what does it say to you about the organization if they're not able to handle this? it's hard to see the scenario where him being gay would be treated hostilely in any environment or society. hopefully i'm right about that. what does it mean about the organization if they can't handle it? why are they losers already? >> if you can't handle the scrutiny of the michael sam situation, you're already at a loss because you as a head

coach, general manager and owner, you have to be able to have control over your team. when i say control, i mean more so speaking from a locker room presence. if your guys in the locker room, your leadership isn't taking care of the football team first and foremost, you've already lost. if there's issues once michael sam gets drafted, if there are locker room issues, that's on the leaders of the team, head coach and general manager. if they can't handle the scrutiny of michael sam situation with foreknowledge, how do you expect to succeed when there's a multitude of things that come up during the season that you have no idea when they're going to come up, whether on the field or off the field situations? >> we often misunderstand. we see greatness on the field and make assumptions about what that means about the people. hopefully there are a lot of players like you, while young and may be inexperienced and

insophisticate had the exposure breathes understanding. when people get to know this guy and understand he can crush you in a moment's notice from any angle on the field, maybe they'll accept him for that and grow in experience. do you think that's likely? >> it's likely. it happened to me. everything that happens from now on, he'll be okay. guys will embrace him, show him a lot of support. >> that would be great. anything less cannot be tolerated. don stallworth, thanks for being on. >> thank you for having me on. >> what do you think? will people be watching this? tweet us. kate? up next, a california anchor interviewing samuel l. jackson made a mistake. the actor was not going to let the anchor forget it, or let any of us forget it? we'll show you next. and our giant idaho potato truck is still missing. so my dog and i we're going to go find it.

appropriate way to start the visit. >> before dinner, the two leaders have plenty on their plates. with surveillance activities, zil war in syria and effort to contain iran's nuclear weapon program. >> there will be many issues the two leaders will discuss. >> white house officials are touting the u.s. french relationship with the not so subtle dig at the bush administration which once referred to france as part of old europe because of that country's opposition to the iraq war. one senior obama official says we've come a long way since freedom fries. >> i'd say so. despite the delicate diplomacy tonight, it's always beautiful to see. >> wonder if they'll have those at the dinner? >> fries? maybe. think about that. 20 year war, 5 million lives lost. how many of us are even aware of
