and continued, and continued. kentucky senator rand paul speaking for nearly 13 hours blocking the nomination of the president's choice to head the cia john bren afpblt the senator's main goal to bring attention to the obama administration's drone policy or lack there on certain issues that he wants the administration to respond to. what he says is the administration is refusing to rule out the possibility of drone strikes being used on u.s. citizens within our borders. he went into it like this. >> i rise today to begin to filibuster john brennan's nomination for the cia. i will speak until i can no longer speak. i will speak as long as it takes until the alarm is sounded from coast to coast that our constitution is important, that your rights to trial by jury are precious, that no american should be killed by a drone on american soil without first

being charged with a crime, without first being found to be guilty by a court. jenna: and talk he did. chief congressional correspondent mike emanuel is live on capitol hill. taking a big step back from the 13 hours, what did the senator accomplish in this filibuster? >> reporter: jenna, senator rand paul clearly raised the profile and raised issues of constitutional rights and civil liberties at a time when the u.s. government has new technology in the form of drones available to it. his filibuster seemed to energize many republicans on capitol hill, including senate leadership. here was his final pitch. >> we are not going to be killing americans not in a combat situation, that we will obey the constitution, that the fifth amendment does apply to all americans and there aren't exceptions. i thank you very much for the forbea for forbearance and yield the floor.

>> the questions he raised were he entirely appropriate and should have been answered by the obama administration. >> reporter: taking the floor for 13 hours raised hid profile with the national audience and should help if he decides to run for president in 2016. jenna: did he take any breaks, mike? >> reporter: no breaks, no breaks he could not leave the floor, no restroom breaks, only a little candy, a little water. senator kirk brought him who the tea but could not leave the floor. jenna: very interesting to see the process play out. we hear about filibuster so much. we don't normally see in it that way. what -- what are the a democrats saying today, mike, about senator paul's effort to hold up the nomination? >> reporter: they seem to recognize that this is a united state senator's right. if they were in the minority they may do similar things, and today the senate majority leader harry reid had a little fun with the filibuster. >> i've been involved in a few filibusters as rand paul has, as rand paul did yesterday. what i've learned from my

experiences with talking filibusters is this. to succeed you need strong convictions bulls a strong pwhraerd, it's obvious senator paul has both. >> in the end john bren and is expected to get through to be the next cia director, that is one reason why you do a filibuster just to hold it up because you know you cannot derail it. it will be interesting to see if the obama administration feels the pressure to give him a firm final answer, jenna. jenna: last week senator reid was saying something about the republicans and calling them weak sauce and this weak some compliments? it was a compliment, right, strong convictions. >> reporter: it was definitely an endurance test, and after almost 13 hours, and he was talking almost all on topic, they saluted him. jenna: i think we can all agree it's nice to see someone with passion whether you agree with them or not standing up for what

they believe n. we'll talk a lot about this today. mike, great to see you. bill jon: you also need comfortable shoes and senator rand didn't really plan this in advance, didn't wear the right shoes and that was part of the problem at the end of 13 hours. jenna: next time if we see him coming in with tennis shoes on the senate floor we'll know. jon: good arch support. jenna: the presidential drone program is something that we've talked a lot about. it has certainly been used to kill terrorist, even americans overseas. but could this president or a future president use drones in this country against americans? that's what senator paul's worried about. fox news senior judicial analyst andrew napolitano, the judge will join us to take a close hraoerbg at that in just a minute. jon: right now on capitol hill new approaches to gun control legislation. democrats and republicans are coming at issue from very different angles, raising questions about whether we will see any kind of compromise.

molly henneberg is look at it from washington. the senate judiciary committee will consider four pweufplt four bills today. expanded background checks could be the most con ten sus. >> reporter: it would try to expand background checks beyond what the law currently requires. we have individual kwroeft hearing that ivideo of the hearing going on in the senate judiciary committee. buyers have to pass a background check if they by a gun from the 50,000 federally licensed dealersers. if you buy from a gun show, personally or online you don't have to pass a background check. that's what this law could change. some republicans say the law would not be effective. >> they fail to recognize that criminals won't be any more likely to submit to expanded background checks than they are currently. they will go around supposedly universal checks to steal guns or buy them in the black market. >> reporter: some republicans

also are concerned that expanding background checks would lead to a national registry of gun owners, which they oppose. jon. jon: so do any of these bills have a chance of getting through the full senate? >> reporter: well, all of the bills may possible the democratically-controlled senate judiciary committee today, but the full senate is another matter. accepts and democrats seem maybe willing to come to some kind of agreement on a new law adding stiffer penalties who those who traffic in firearms and on straw purchases. those are people who legally can buy guns and pass them onto those who cannot. here is more. >> straw purchasers circumvent the purpose of the background check system and we have found many -- everything from drug gangs to others who have used guns that the gang members would not have bought, but the straw purchaser has. straw purring is done only to

get a gun in the hand of somebody who is prohibited from having one. >> reporter: we have just found out, jon, that that bill on gun trafficking and straw purchases have has just passed the senate judiciary committee. it was not unanimous. it will now go to the full senate and we'll see what happens there. jon: one of the many battles yet to come. molly henneberg this washington, thank you. jenna: a power full and inch predictable winter storm is on the move today, with new england and the northeast the next stop. flooding is a real concern in areas still struggling to recover from super storm sandy. this is the very same weather system that dug nearly two feet of snow over parts of virginia and blanketed parts of the midwest. meteorologist janice dean is live at the fox weather center with more. >> reporter: do you think the groundhog is looking for a new job. jenna: everyone is a critic, everyone, what is he going to do, poor little guy. >> reporter: he thought he was

being optimistic and two feet of no in the mountains of west virginia, this is in the mountainous regions. even north carolina half a foot of snow. and this storm is not done yet. we'll watch it over the next day or so linger along the coast. philadelphia, new york, a few band move in, mostly rain across western long island, but eastern long island could see several inches. and then west of boston, parts of connecticut you could get several inches piling up within the next 12 to 24 hours. this storm is going to linger along the coast and as jenna mentioned, the fact that we are going to see these waives and coastal erosion in areas that were really battered by sandy, all those natural barriers in some cases are gone, so the coastal flooding, the beach erosion will continue. rain mixing with snow heavy at times. today, tomorrow and then lit move offshore. you see this thing poking here that is the next storm system

moving into the central u.s. this weekend. a quick look at weekend, the temperatures will warm up in d.c., 61 degrees in washington into sunday and then we'll watch our next storm move into the west and push into the central u.s. with more snow for the upper midwest. and spring is less than two weeks away, jenna. jenna: maybe there will be a lot done in two weeks and then we'll hit the low 80s. >> reporter: we hope so. the low 80s. i want to ease in a little bit. i don't need 80s. jenna: you've got to adjust your project. it's a big project in the -- >> reporter: and spring ahead this weekend my friend. jon: i forgot that. i hate that. jodi arias set to return to the stand moments from now. she will take questions for a second day from jurors deciding her fate. it's a practice allowed in arizona, and just a couple of other states. this will be her 17th day on the witness stand. airy as admits killing her

boyfriend, travis alexander. she says it was self-defense. prosecutors call it jealous see and the jurors questions are giving us an idea of where they might stand. adam housley live in los angeles. so, after hearing what, 150 questions it sounds like some of these jurors are skeptical of her story, adam. >> yeah, jon it's a unique process and we were interested to hear what the jury had to say, it might give you an insight as to what they are thinking. their questions in some cases are stronger and tiffer than the prosecutor. as our producer who has been watching the case from the beginning insisted as well it takes away the emotion. when you heard the cross-examination from the prosecutor there was a lot of emotion involved, a lot of sparing. in this case it's just the judge reading the questions from the jury, airy as answers, she looks at the jury, she gives them an answer and turns back for the next question. here is just a small sample of some of the questions she faced yesterday. >> if travis attacked you on june 4th why not just tell the police the truth from the

start? how is it that you were so calm on the television interviews? you stated in the 48 hours interview that travis' family deserved to know the truth. if you really believe that why didn't you confess then? a lot of your answers to the questions you were asked made it seem like you put travis' feelings and priorities before your own. if that were true, why didn't you call for help after you shot travis? >> reporter: you can see, jon just a few of the questions, very hard hitting and very to the point and very skeptical of her story. jon: clearly. what happens after this? does the prosecution get a chance to ask her questions again? >> reporter: she will get more questions from the jury via the judge today and the prosecutor may have the chance to cross-examination. it's up to the judge. in some cases that does happen. we are curious to see if that will happen. as you mentioned she has been on

the stage for 17 straight days right now. there have been some kings in her story. juries suspect of some of those story lines. we'll see if the judge will allow the prosecutor and if the prosecutor wants to cross-examine again the redirect, basically. jon: adam housley thank you. jenna: new concerns about safety in the skies after a bullet is found on a plane. the scare it kicked up and what else security officials discovered. where did they find that thing? a 13-hour filibuster to know more about the president's policy on tkoepb strikes. judge napolitano joins us as to what concerns we should have about this. knowing something about this or not knowing anything at all. zap. it's our fastest and easiest way to get you into your car. it's just another way you'll be traveling at the speed of hertz.

filibustered and spoke for nearly 13 hours in that rare move focusing on what he says is the obama administration's refusal to rule out the possibility of drone strikes on u.s. citizens. paul saying no american should ever be killed by a drone drone on american soil without first being charged with a crime and found guilty by a court. joining us now fox news senior judicial analyst judge andrew napolitano. i know you have strong feelings about the drone program. >> senator paul and i are on the exact same page. we have discuss thed many times. we did not discuss how one stands and stays awake and lives as a normal human being for 13 hours on the well -- jon: that wasn't even the record. strom thermmonday did it more than 24 hours. >> i don't know how he did that. they have to stay standing and can't leave for all the normal things that we would want to take a break for. in terms of the essence of what he did, did he succeed in preventing john brennan from becoming the head of the cia, problem below not.

there are enough votes to confirm him and that vote will be today, tomorrow or saturday. i don't think that was his real goal i. think his goal was to open up the eyes of the american public to the a attitude of the white house which seems to be, we can kill whoever we want, how we want, without revealing it to the public, without even revealing it to congress and we are not even going to answer senator paul's letter about how we got here, historically, legally and constitutionally. the constitution continue be clearer. if the government wants life, liberty or property it must take it through due process. due process can be a declared war against an enemy combatant. it cannot mean killing a guy, an american or not sitting in a cafe having lunch with his 16-year-old son. jon: we use the drone program obviously in places like afghanistan. we've taken out a number of terrorists in there, and in north africa as well. is it such a slippery slope to imagine, you know, drones at

some future point being used on the streets of, i don't know, new york city? >> i think it is for a couple of reasons. when this question was put to the air force about six months ago, the air force responded by saying we expect to have applications for 30,000 drones in the u.s. in the next ten years. the vast majority will be owned by state and local police. will they be used just for surveillance or will they be used offense differently? and more interesting, john when bob muller the director of the fbi was asked if drones could be used to kill people he said ask the white house. when john brennan was asked the same question, he said ask the white house. when the attorney general was asked that question. he went back and forth and back and forth with the great senator ted cruz from texas and eventually said no. this is not a clear, crystal clear immediate no, of course not this isn't stalin russia and

don't do this. jon: he said, i thought i made that clear after a lot of hemming and hawing. >> he didn't make it clear. senator paul has made it clear to the public that the white house is contemplating these type of murders, and the white house and anybody in the government who thinks they can do this need to be restrained and need an eye-opener, yesterday they got it. should he have to suffer, his body and soul through 13 hours of standing, and let's face it not going to the bathroom in order to open up the country's eyes? that is the situation we're in today. jon: the brave new world not that narcotic away. >> not that far away at all. when alex huxley wrote these things we said this is science fiction. now it's here. jon: a pleasure to get your view. senator rand paul will join megyn kelly, we presume he's rested up from miss 13-hour marathon. he'll be on america live today, a little less than three hours

from now. 2:05pm eastern right here on fox news. jenna: we'll look forward to that. fox news alert for you now the united nations has just voted to impose some strict new sanctions on north korea. the new sanctions come after north korea conducted a nuke test last month. they said they were going to do it, they did and now the sanctions are coming. the vote also just coming a few hours after north korea threatened to launch a preemptive nuclear strike against as you. all this is happening today as we hear about another middle eastern country wanting to go nuclear. we are going to take a look at nuke threats around the world, how we can reduce the risk if that is even possible. that's our topic next.

jon: we are getting new information now about a security breach at sacramento international airport after a flight attendant found a bullet on a plane packed with passengers. rick folbaum live with more. >> reporter: flight attendants find all kinds of things passengers leave behind after nights but it's probably not too often they find a .22 caliber bullet which turned up on a post flight cleaning from phoenix to sacramento. the bullet had about the none fired. the sheriff's office was called, deputies searched the whole plane. they didn't find anything else unusual. no word on who left the bullet behind. the discovery happened the same day another southwest passenger was stopped by the tsa trying to pass through security with a .45 caliber handgun and 14 rounds of live ammo in his carry on. the passenger said he had a permit for the weapon and forgot it was in his bag. tsa agents kept the weapon and allowed the man to catch his flight. a little excitement at the

sacramento international airport. jon: they have loosened the rules but are still banning guns from the flight and bullets. >> reporter: right. jenna: new threats from north korea today with the rogue nation vowing to hit the united states in a preemptive nuclear attack. this warning is coming as the united nations today voted to impose a strict new round of sanctions after that nuclear test a few weeks ago that north korea did. north korea says today it will not hess state t hesitate to launch nukes against the united states warning washington will be engulfed in a sea of fire. a string in provocative moves with the isolated dictatorship. with north korea threatening a nuclear attack and iran moving closer to a nuclear weapon and disarmerment talks with russia at a stall there are more questions today about the thread of nuclear weapons and what we should do about it as a country. there are four top political defense officials writing in the washington journal op ed this.

a global effort is needed to reduce reliance on nuclear weapons, prevent their threat and ultimately end them as a threat to the world. now we are learning that jordan is close to commissioning two nuclear reactors to be built just south of the syrian borner. we have jonathan shanzer, from the defense of democracy. nice to have you here. jordan is saying we are going to build these nuclear reactors but saying to the united states we are not going to sign any agreements that we can't enrich uranium which is a step to get nuclear weapons. what does that say? >> what we're watching right now is what people have been warning about right now. the concept of a nuclear cascade. we look at iran right now getting closer and closer to a nuclear weapon. you have a number of sunni countries throughout the region. saudi arabia, united arab

emirates, kuwait and jordan all wanting to make sure if they are not left in the dust. if the iranians go nuclear and they are friends of the sunni states they will be defenseless. egypt talked about this. they are not exactly in an kpebg position to do so. the idea that any of these countries are looking to go nuclear is of of great concern given the fact that the region is not stable. jenna: we see north korea who already has ha nuclear weapon making these threats. this piece from the "wall street journal" has a series of writers, our viewers probably know, henry kissinger the best them all. they are making an argument about disarmer meant. making nuclear weapons go away in the world and having the united states really lead that process. is that possible? is that a policy that we can pursue successfully? >> well this is the policy that president obama has set forth, trying to imagine a world without nuclear weapons. the problem is, is that we need to remain strong here in the

united states. we need to be the policeman because really there is no one else out there. what you need is a stable democratic countries that have the ability to deter countries like north korea or iran from going nuclear. the only way to do that is to project strength. we are not able to deter these people through diplomacy or sanctions through far, you need to lead through strength. jenna: it's ironic that we get the threats from north korea the same time we get this op ed about disarmer meants. jordan came up in the news today, because we have this report that the cia seized osama bin laden's son-in-law after being deported from turkey. can you talk us through a little bit about who this guy is and what we think happened here? >> sure. it's kind after complicated story. he's been based in iran. a lot of people find that very surprising that there would be al-qaida members operating out of iran because sunni and shiites aren't supposed to get

along. we've learned from the 9/11 commist iran has long harbored al-qaida operatives there. he left this son of law of osama bin laden part of the inner circle of the al-qaida core, so to speak and went to turkey. the turks flagged him and then from thereafter a few weeks determined that it was time to deport him but they were not going to extradict him to the united states, despite our requests. they said they would deport him to kuwait which is where he had last held a passport but they were going to deport him via jordan where we have an extradition agreement and so the cia was able to nab him in jordan. >> how big of a catch that is? >> i think it's potentially a very big catch. this is a guy who probably knows the inner workings of al-qaida. i think he's been more of a spokesperson publicly, but who knows what he learned from his father-in-law. and so one of the things -- i think it's a great catch, obviously it's getting one more high profile al-qaida operative off the grid, but won't it have

been wonderful if the turks had quietly leaned him over to the united states, not made a big deal on this and given the united states leads to go after the anyoning and other key figures within the al-qaida network. jenna: we'll see what we learn. thank you so much. nice to ask you as always. >> my pleasure. jon: the stock market seems to be on a roll just a couple of days after breaking its all time high on tuesday. the dow now up even high e14344 up almost 50 points as you can see. it comes on the heels of those record-breaking days. so, could the dow be on a track to hit 20,000 in just a few years? an in-depth look at that tantalizing possibility. plus a brand-new report on the dreamliner, what the ntsb, the national transportation safety board has to say about the recent battery fire that sparked a world whaoeuf wide grounding oworldwide grounding of that

penn financial group. matt, is that crazy talk, 20,000 on the dow? >> in the next couple years i think it is a little bullish. i think eventually we'll hit 20,000. we'll hit 40,000 eventually. to say we'll hit 20,000 in the near future you're getting a little bit ahead of yourself. jenna: one analyst says, thomas lee, no relation by the way, he works for jpmorgan chase. he basically says companies are doing so good earnings will reaccelerate. over the next four years they will see substantial increases and that is why the companies will drive the stock market higher. >> i agree partially. earnings will be the best ever. i agree with that. jenna: why? why are they the best ever? >> they're cutting the fat last couple years. it gives companies ability to fire people and not take a backlash. by firing people their overhead dropped. revenue is not increasing at pace it should be but the bottom line the net increase is getting bigger ever year. you need more demand for

goods and services with unemployment where it is at. i don't see earnings increasing going forward. >> dow, 30 big companies, big stocks in the market. a couple names that you might know. mcdonald's, wal-mart, home depot, american express, they cover all sorts of different sectors but still only 30 companies. does this reflect, when we look at the dow, hitting high records, does it reflect what is going on in the economy or just reflecting what is going on in the dow? >> you know, the s&p 500 is another index. that is the 500 largest companies in the united states. that represents the economy a bit better but the dow has been around for so long, it is a bell weathering we all watch but it does give great insight. as you mentioned you have mcdonald's, you have ibm, wal-mart that is a lot of places people spend money. you have to remember if you look economy itself, unemployment is high. at the same time they're staying out of the market and we're hitting all-time highs so there is disconnect between the two. jenna: you think the average investor might have been sitting on the sidelines is

this a good time to reenter the market thinking about maybe a 20,000 next couple years? >> i will tell you this. this is very deep research i've done. in the 20 minutes i've been here at fox, three people asked me to look at the 401(k)s. people want to get back in. that scares me. when everybody wants to get back in the market it is usually too late. there is another year or two left in the rally you can get in now. jenna: crazy to reflect last couple years. the dow hit 6500, something like that. you see 14,000. we were told this is the new normal. you would not get as much from your stocks. unemployment will remain high. we'll have all the new problems or old problems that will remain. what happened to the new normal? is this now the new normal? high unemployment but still, high stocks market? >> when it comes to people like me on wall street we're kind of like economists and meteorologists, we tell you what happened after it happens. things are great, earnings are good instead of looking ahead. i think we have to realize unemployment will not get

back down it 5% levels. growth will probably not be at the 5% level anytime soon but people are okay with it. they come to realize we can grow the economy with gdp ad 2% and earnings can grow at nice clip and companies can make money. jenna: is that indication we don't need to cut the debt and don't need to worry about the deficit or don't care if 23 million americans are unemployed or not employed? is that indication we can live with that and abs live with? >> absolutely not. i agree with the analyst at 20,000. i think things are good enough now, the federal reserve keeping interest rates low. eventually we have inflation. eventually interest rates go up. when that happens, the stock market will not go up with it. no, we need to get our house in order as far as the u.s. economy is concerned but we can keep flying on the coat talts of the fed a little while. >> wore your fancy suit today. i felt that was an incation things would go right?

planetarium. dr. pitts, we saw a couple weeks ago, mid-february, the 15th, that meteor right that came crashing to earth over russia, scared so many people, hurt a bunch people, broke windows. now we have this comet coming nearby. are we seeing more of this space activity or are we getting better at finding it? >> well, i think you're right on count number two. we're getting better at fining it and we're getting better at seeing it. from what we saw of the asteroid last month. so many people had dashboard cams that gave us great views. it is more so we're getting better identifying these things and letting people know about it, we have such a great network of communication these days. jon: a comet is mostly ice and gas, right? is it, if one were to hit the earth would there be at kind of impact we saw from the asteroid? >> well it could be devastating if one did hit the earth. even though they are made of gas, they are also bound up with rock and dust and dirt

and the velocity which they travel could be a problem for us because they have a lot of energy to dissipate. so it's not so much the mass of the comet. it is a rather low mass but it is the velocity that would give us the force that would cause a lot of damage. we don't really have very much history of comets crashing into the planet though. jon: 35 miles a second is what i hear this thing is flying at. i'm told that mars might actually be in a little bit of danger from this thing. there is a very slight possibility that this thing could impact mars. >> yes. that would be on its next go round actually. so, it isn't really something that we should be concerned about. you know there are these close passages among the planets of these other objects, these smaller solar system bodies like comets and asteroids and stuff but we're becoming good enough to predict the orbit tall path when they will hit or a close pass and so far the one from mars looks like a close pass. no reason for any concern

there. jon: we have a graphic that shows how this thing will be seen rising in the night sky starting on well, march 7th. it is visible now in the northern hemisphere. where should people look and when should they look if they want to catch a view of it? >> well the comet is going to be visible over on the western side of the sky in the evening about 30 minutes after sunset. that makes it convenient. just as the sky is getting dark. the difficulty will be spotting it. it will appear as brightish object, sort of a fuzzy ball if you over on the western side. one of the best things to do is look over the weekend as sky clears up for many of us and tuesday it will be to the left of a thin crescent moon. it will be just about at its brightest. that will be a good time to look for it then with binoculars. that will be a great help also. jon: looks like a badminton shuttlecock out in the sky in the west. dr. deer rec pitts, always

good to have you on. thanks for the information. >> you thanks very much. jon. my pleasure. jon: see you soon. jenna: it is a recall that could affect what you have for lunch or what you serve your children. cans of tuna are being pulled from the shelf. we're live at the breaking news desk with hello?

jenna: well, right now a food recall to tell you about as bumblebee voluntarily pulls some can of tuna from the store shelves. rick has more on this. rick? >> reporter: we should say no one gotten sick from any of this. this is voluntary recall because of loose seals on the tuna cans. if those liz are not sealed properly the tuna could get contaminated or it could spoil which is why bumblebee foods decided it was best to recall the tuna completely. the list of which tuna

products have been recalled is a long one. so we've got it on our website for you. you can check it out there. we can tell you that these were tuna cans that were sold all over the country between january 17th and february 28th. they're five-ounce cans of chunk white albacore and chunk light tuna sold in cases of six, 24 and 48 cans. if you have any throw them away. bumblebee is working with retailers to make sure there are not anymore on the store shelves. bumblebee has a 24-hour consumer affairs hotline if you have any questions. there is the number on the screen. you can give them a call. finally the company is stressing to people throw away the cans if you have them. don't think that it is okay to food it to your cat. that is not okay, all right? jenna: poor little cats. getting contaminated tuna. we don't want that to happen. not good for you and not good for your pets. rick, thanks. jon: just in now, new information on a battery fire that broke out on japan

airlines boeing 787 at boston logan's back in january. it was one of several incidents that led to the worldwide grounding of the dreamliner fleet. now the ntsb is releasing its interim report on the fire. dan springer is live in seattle. so what have we learned so far, dan? >> reporter: well, jon, we learned in great detail what the ntsb has done during its investigation but it did not draw any conclusions as to what caused the fire exactly two months ago at boston's logan airport on the 787. that remains a mystery and may never be solved because the battery was so badly damaged in that fire. the ntsb knows the lithium-ion battery had a short and overheated in a cascading effect burning up all eight battery cells. they know that boeing safeguards did not work. meantime the 50 dreamliners remained grounded costing airline that own them millions of of dollars a price that may be passed

along to boeing as penalty, jon. jon: how close is boeing to be able to fly those planes again? >> reporter: yeah, that's the big question of course. boeing, a source tells me the company is very confident the faa will approve their proposed fix as early as tomorrow but then that fix would have to be tested, and the planes recertified to fly passengers. boeing's solution includes a battery redesign that creates better separation between the battery cells to avoid the thermal runaway i talked about. there is stronger battery containment box that will vent smoke better in the event of a overheated battery. since the root cause of the battery short is not known. there is plenty of caution coming out of washington, d.c. in fact transportation secretary ray lahood said the planes would not fly comercially until he is 1,000% sure of their safety. yesterday he told "the wall street journal", quote, i made it very clear that i want a thorough review of the bowing plan. i will can a lot of

questions before a final decision is made. boeing has the retrofit kits ready to go and a handful of redesigned batteries so they can start testing immediately when the faa gives the green light. the question becomes how long will it take to recertify the battery under normal circumstances? recertification takes about five weeks. in this case it could take a lot longer, jon. jon: i know the ntsb will have a forum on all this not in the middle of april. that is another month. bad news for the company as the planes are burning money as they sit there on the ground. >> reporter: they're sitting there at payne field here in seattle and they're still making planes because they're doing about five or six a month. they want to ratchet that production up. so the planes are just sitting there waiting for the retrofit kits and the faa to say, go ahead and test your plan. jon: not good for all of us because boeing is one much america's biggest exporters. dan springer in seattle, thank you. >> reporter: sure. jenna: we're getting new details on the lion attack

at a wild life park that left a 24-year-old intern dead. what provoked the big cat to attack and why was the woman all alone in the lion's cage? some big questions. in a few minutes the president is hosting lunch with former republican vice-presidential nominee congressman paul ryan along with democratic congressman, chris van hollen, the three of them. the move is an attempt to reach a grand bargain on deficit reduction. will it work? we're live at the white house ahead.

>> reporter: a brand-new hour. a story of a lion, there it is right there. this is the line that killed a young woman after she climbed into the cage. why would she get so close to an animal she knew could kill her? that is straight ahead. also a brazen new kind of threat from north korea, promises of a preemptive nuclear strike against the u.s. reaction from washington and around the world. plus a brand-new diet craze, don't eat these, in fact don't eat anything. stastarve yourself and the pounds will come right off. is it safe? our experts weigh n. all that and breaking news as the second hour of "happening now" starts right now.

a. >> working as even intern, even though it was unpaid, she lived on the promise, they had a little trailer that the inch turns lived in. it was her dream come true working with big cats all day long, nothing but big cats. yesterda jon: yesterday she was attacked on killed by a 350 africa 350 after 350-pound african line. any idea why she was in the lion enclosure? >> no, jon, that is the big question. according to her father diana hansen knew she was not allowed inside the lion cages, only the owner was. diana was very disappointed she continue get closer to the animals she loved, especially this african lion that arrived at cat haven animal sanctuary four years as a cub and there

are no reports that he had ever attacked anyone before. hanson from the seattle area had pea gun her six-month volunteer intership in january. by all accounts it was a dream come true job. investigators trying to figure out why she broke the rules and entered the lion enclosure by herself yesterday afternoon. the facility was closed at the time, there was only one other person in the park when that worker could not get the lion to move into another enclosure responding officers had to kill the lion to reach hanson who was still alive, but it was too late and she died a short time later at the scene. jon, an autopsy will be conducted today and the park remains closed until further notice. jon: i know the well-known jack hanna from the columbia zoo is speaking out. does very a guess as what happened here? >> reporter: you're right few people have such experience as jack and aefplt says a cat raised in captivity has the

instincts of a wild animal and he goes on. >> her father said she was totally fearless. that is where a train wreck can happen, especially a youngster that just got there. >> reporter: cat haven is located in dunlap 45 miles outside of fresno and like most wildlife parks it has strict rules to protect the numerous exotic animals there as well as visitors and safe staff. park officials are looking into whether the safety protocols were followed. they say they are not pursuing a criminal investigation because all leads indicate hanson's death was the result of an accident. jon. jon: what a sad story. claudia could you between, thank you. jenna: right now we are going to turn to politics. the president is taking the next step in a show of bi-partisan outreach to handle this sequester budget battle that is going to continue. this is after inviting a dozen republican senators out for dinner last night. he's about to sit down for lunch at the white house with republican paul ryan, he is chairman much the house budget committee, formal vice-presidental nominee and chris van hollen, the panel's

ranking democrat. wendell goler is live at the house. dinner and lunch duty a lot of meals coming out of this. >> reporter: the president wants an agreement to cut the deficit by $1.5 trillion and end the across the board spending cuts we are calling the sequester. paul ryan as you point out was rom rop's running mate author of the last two house budget plans. he has a new plan with a goal of balancing the bulge net ten years. ironically his job made a bit easier because of the tax hikes that mr. obama insisted on which ryan and other house republicans opposed. republicans complain the president's post-election campaign-style events are aimed at pressuring them into accepting what he calls his balanced approach to reducing the deficit using additional tax revenue as well as spending cuts. pennsylvania republican senator pat toomey at the dinner last night said he would have been better off talking to them from the start. >> i would suggest that the

approach of campaigning in america and really being quite confrontational hasn't been working so well, so i'm hoping that this is a new approach on the part of the president to reach out, to have some dialogue to see if there is common ground. >> reporter: last night the president hosted a dozen republican senators at a washington hotel, and south carolina senator lindsey graham who drew up the guest list suggested afterward there might be room for compromise. >> we've got to do something structurally to save medicare and social security, and republicans agree the tax code is a mess and we can flatten out the tax code, we can raise some revenue to buy down rates and to pay some debt down. >> reporter: the president will have a tougher job convincing republicans in the house where they want to use any savings from reforming the tax code to lower tax rates overall. his charm offensive continues next week when on wednesday and thursday the president goes up to capitol hill to talk to republicans on their own turf for the first time since 2010.

jenna: is he going to bring snacks too? if all it tuckus meals. >> reporter: i think he expects them to feed him this time. jenna: it might be appropriate after a couple of free dinners and lunches. we'll continue to watch for the lunch, it will begin around 12:30 eastern time. thank you. jon: fox news alert and some ominous news out of north korea, that country is now threatening a preemptive nuclear strike against the united states. leader pyongyang are insurance tense flying their rhetoric. they also threat tone attack the south. all this comes as the u.n. security council voted today to impose the strongest sanctions against north korea for its nuclear test last know. gordon chang is author nuclear showdown, north korea takes on the world.

why is north korea being so belicose. >> there is so much news going on that something is wrong in the capitol. kim jong un has baseball been there for 15 months. he's been purging his father's officials which is standard operating procedure in the north korean regime, that's why they are expand being the north korean prison camps right now. when a regime is in disarray the hardest lines always set the tone. jon: there was speculation when he took office that he would need to prove to his military leaders that he was a tough guy, that he had backbone, is this his way of doing that? >> that's part of it. the other thing is that north korea always commits provocations within months of the inauguration of a south korean president to test the revolve of a new leader. hark yo u.n. g hai took office last week. jon: let's take a look at the sanctions the u.n. voted in on south korea.

restricting financial and trade transactions, i would have thought that would already have been done. required mandatory inspection of suspicious cargo. asset freezes incorporated and travel plans for certain north korean leaders. a luxury goods import ban. apparently some of the leadership likes their sailing yachts and their racecars, they can't get them any more at least if nations of the world adhere to these restrictions. will they? that is one of the questions. >> that is the big thing. it's good that china signed on to the sanctions but china has signed onto three sets of sanctions before and has not enforced them. and we know that because april 15th, last year in the big military parade in pyongyang we saw a chinese mobile missile launchers, that is clearly a violation of prior sets of sanctions. the problem with these sanctions, you know they are good enough if you look at the words but there is too much room for interpretation. when there is room for interpretation china doesn't enforce them.

jon: you don't think it sounds like, that these sanctions are going to amount to much, and they are certainly not going to change the north korean's behavior? >> they will only amount to anything if china enforces them. right now there is no indication that at the top of the regime in beijing that they are willing to change their north korean policies. that's the big issue. jon: we'll continue to watch north korea as they continue to threaten the united states, for what reason we do not exactly understand. thank you. jenna: a powerful eastern storm at the seaboard today. huge waves, rain and heavy snow adding up to misery for millions. the president is trying to warm up republicans after his chilliness to g.o.p. lawmakers. can his new so-called charm offensive net him a grand bargain? a closer took. a new diet fad encouraging you to eat whatever you want, hamburgers every day for five days if you want it, then cut

way back for the remaining two days during the week. can this really work? we'll talk to some nutritionists about this new fad and whether you should try it, ahead. all right that's a fifth-floor problem...

[ male announcer ] glucerna hunger smart. a smart way to help manage hunger and diabetes. jenna: the president continuing his push for a so-called grand bargain speaking directly to republicans about a budget deal. today as we've been telling you he's having lunch in about 15 minutes with leaders of the house budget committee of republican chairman paul ryan and ranking democrat chris van hollen. the president kicked off his new effort to quote unquote charm the opposition last night when he invited a dozen senate republicans out for dinner breaking bread in the hope of breaking the sequester stalemate. senator lindsey graham spoke to fox news after the meal. he indicates they are heading in

the right direction but there is still a long way to go. >> i can tell you that the president has been the campaigner in chief and it hasn't worked, and at the end of the day this is his legacy, his last term, and i do believe that the ronald reagan model where he sat down with tip o'neal has been the right model. the president has been a very distant figure to republicans and democrats. he's always on the campaign trail. i haven't talked to him in over a year. but now he's engaging members of the senate, and the house, not just the leadership, and i encourage the president to keep this up. ronald reagan and tip o'neal saved social security from bankruptcy but not just talking but by doing. so i hope the president will end the perpetual campaign and start governing. and governing means talking. jenna: we have the washington bureau chief for the "wall street journal" and wrote an article earlier this week titled how maybe to reach an illusive big deal. jerry is this part of the plan?

do you think this is the path towards that big deal? >> i think if there is going to be a big deal this is the path. i agree with senator graham in most respects but i don't think this is a case of ronald reagan reaching out to tip o'neal, lead dear to leader this is the question of the president reaching down to the middle of the senate. they are frustrated they can't get any traction because all this noise is going on above them and below them. this gives them a chance to be empowered. the president reaches out to people in the middle of the senate, starting with republicans, and frankly he'll have to do the same thing with democrats saying, look if you guys can get going on something i'll have your back. that is the key here. republicans aren't going to move on a big deal unless they are convinced the president will deliver democratic votes on cuts tone titlement spending and democrats aren't going to move unless they are convinced republicans in a tax reform deal will accept a little more revenue. this those conditions can be created, there is the potential here. jenna: that is good.

we'll take some potential. >> potentialpoe. jenna: owe tension al. underlined, bold. some are calling this a charm offensive. it infers that it is temporary, a kh-rpl offensive you can having you off as a little empty. i'm curious your take on the president's actions with the dinner and lunch, do you think it's a true charm offensive or do you think maybe it's a tipping point? >> it doesn't matter what i think so much. i have talked to some republicans in the last 24 hours about this. and i think their view is that this is possible piff, that they are guardedly optimistic that this represents a change, it is a move in the right direction. there is some cynicism that this is about photo ops as opposed to substantive conversations. one said to me if you want serious conversations you do it in private not in public. they are waiting for this on the hill and they will not turn it down. despite some reservations and

belief you are not going to do a deal over dinner, it's not that easy, but this is a different tone and they will play along those lines for a while and hope for the best. jenna: we'll see fit continues. one of the things you wrote in the article this week you said what is frustrating about the past two years is that the two parties have wasted so much energy to under achieve. it's interesting to see two different leadership styles. you see the president making these dinner and lunch invitations then you see senator rand paul filibustering on the floor just last night for so many hours just because he passionately believes in something. these are very different types of leadership and people can have different opinions about it. i'm curious what you think it says about the leadership we might see from either side. >> i think what it says to me is that the sequester kind of brought the futility and the silliness of what we've been doing home to a lot of people. think about the sequester, the sequester cuts spending on two areas of the budget that are small and already shrinking. discretionary domestic spending, programs the congress approves every year and defense spending

which has gone down a lot already. it doesn't do anything about the things creating the deficit, the big entitlement programs that keep ballooning and will do so for 20 or 30 more years. people look at this and say this doesn't make any sense we are attack being the deficit by going after the wrong things and leaving alone the things that matter. i think maybe the sequester brought home to people the futility of continuing that path. that's why i think for the first time in a while we have a conversation about the big deal underway again. and that is really what the president is trying to take advantage of, people are willing to talk about something that makes more long-term sense after a lot of sort of silliness about short-term steps. jenna: your article was published on tuesday. we saw quite a change over the last 48 hours. we look forward to what you say next week, gary. great to see you, thank you. >> all right, sure. jon: fox news alert and take a look at this. these are live pictures off deerfield beach. see those black spots in the water. jenna: little guppies maybe.

jon: no, we are talking sharks, black tips and spinner sharks. spinner sharks get their name because as they are chasing their prey they leap out of the water and picture ow pirouette. there are thousands off the pwhraoefps o beaches of florida. jenna: i wouldn't mind seeing the spinning kind of thing. i don't need to be in the water to see that. this is maybe a good distance. jon: they are needing north up to the carolinas, and it's a little late this year, it's prime -- it's spring break. beachgoers being told to stay out of the water for obvious reasons. i'm a big character fan but you won't want to go swimming in that. jenna: could ruin the spring break. jon: al gore made millions by selling his tv network current. he could lose some of that cash

by someone claiming he was cut off of the deal. latest on that legal battle ahead. and new developments on a dancer who masterminded an acid attack on the head of the bolshoi ballet. the latest on that coming up. vo: bold has a huge imagination a playground of innovation, color, and design. showing up where we least expect it and taking inspiration from our wildest dreams. because bold doesn't see the world in fixtures and faucets, it re-imagines. coloring our lives in ways only bold can do. it's no wonder the world can't wait to see what bold does next.

jon: another twist on a story we've been falling. the star dancer for the bolshoi ballet now admits he arranged for an attack on the director of the dance troupe. he said he never added anyone to throw acid in the man's face. he paid an acquaintance to beat up the ballet chief. instead he was attacked with a jar of acid suffering severe burns to his eyes and face.

jenna: we are keeping an eye on that massive storm causing dangerous conditions up the east coast. it's leaving hundreds of thousands of people without power and new england is bracing for the worst of it. this is the scene in bridgewater, massachusetts where the snow is piling up causing problems tore drivers there. parts of the say the could see up to 8 inches of snow. they had a big storm about a week ago. beach ae roads is the big concern in other areas like plumb island, massachusetts. they are predict ago three-foot surge at high tide. molly line is screaming live for us from sandwich, massachusetts. molly. >> reporter: the tides are a majo concern. there are two more to go. they are keeping an eye on this the ocean, massive waves up there up to 20-foot seas could do a number on what you mentioned the beach erosion problem. that is something they'll ultimately have to assess when the winter finally heads out for the season.

then they'll be able to get a really good look at things. i it has been a challenge in sandwich and other coastal communities. i had a chance to speak to the town manager here in the town of sandwich earlier this morning and he says the beaches will have to be assessed when this all ends but things are not looking good, they've had pager problems when it comes to beach owe erosion and pretty extensive damage to the booed walks and wooden bridges that allow them to get over the marshes and allow beachgoers to get to the oceans in the summertime. it could cost the city up to $600,000, possibly a little bit more than that. they are still assessing things and engineering concerns that have to be looked at. it could be a pricey winter when it comes to the storms seen across new england. the same challenges are faced up north on the north shore where they are keeping an eye on the homes in plumb island, a beautiful vacation spot. with wind like these and the weather the way it's been a lot of money to be lost if some of the homes end up being swept

away. jenna: something we'll pay close attention to. thank you. jon: a new fad diet is out there that let's you eat whatever you want most days of the week. but there could be some serious risks involved. we'll tell you more about that. plus, the gripping murder trial fascinating the nation, the jury getting its turn to ask questions of the defendant, 167 of them yesterday by our count, what the tone of these questions might say about which way jurors are leaning. our legal panel renders its opinion. >> did you ever take pictures of yourself after he hit you? >> no, i did not. >> how did you have time to get the gun down if he was right behind you? >> i don't know if he was right behind me or not. i just had the sense that he was chasing after me. ♪

. .

jon: right now, jody arias back on the stand in her murder trial. she will again face direct questions are the folks who will decide her fate, the jury. the judge is actually reading the questions, including those that seem to sound skeptical about arias's version of what happened. take a listen. >> why would you take the time to delete the photos off the camera after you killed travis? >> why did you put the camera in the washer? why didn't you call 911?

jon: carey hackett, with us, a criminal defense attorney. tad nelson, former prosecutor and criminal defense attorney these days. it is a fascinating look what these jurors have on their minds. they heard her testify for more than three weeks now. they're asking the questions that we just heard. what do you make of the tone? >> well, i think that two important things that these jurors are trying to get at are, to try to get more information from her about the killing itself and about her memory problems. i think that the other main issue that the jury is looking at is her credibility and whether they believe her and how to know when she is telling the truth and when she is lying. jon: tad, you're a prosecutor, you you're a defense attorney. when you look at questions these jurors are asking, which side are they benefiting? >> they're on our side. they're on the prosecutors

side. if you listen to every question they asked, jon, almost like they're saying, jodi your first answer was garbage. we'll try again. we'll throw you the soft one. please explain this to us, because your first explanation was horrible. every single one of them, camera, movement in the body, every question they hit her with to give her another shot. they're so on the government's side in case. so on their side. jon: let's play a couple of more questions and one of her answers. >> did you try and clean up the scene after you left on june 4, 2008? >> based on the evidence i believe i did. >> after you shot travis, why in the run out of the house to get away? >> okay. i'm sorry. that is correct. after i shot him, i didn't know that i shot him, but after the gun went off, while he was unaring at me

we fell over and he was trying to get on top of me. it is hard to describe the fear. it was, it was like mortal terror, it really was. he was trying to get on top of me. i thought, and then he threatened my life. i really thought he had intentions to kill me. so i don't remember, any specifics of what happened right after that point. jon: so there you have the implausible story of a woman who has shot and slashed and slit the throat of the man that she purportedly loved. she basically admitted that she tried to clean up the crime scene after the case but she's also saying oh, i was in horrible fear. i just wanted to get out of there. doesn't exactly compute. >> well, i think what she was saying she was going back to the moment where she acted in self-defense. she said that she felt this mortal terror at this moment and then after that, she has no memory of what actually happened of the cleaning up of, running out of the home.

i think that the jury is going to have a little bit of trouble with this and i hear with each of those questions that what they're really asking for, jodi, i have it us more information. what actually happened? how did the killing occur? where did you run from? how long did it take you to get this gun? why is the closet not messed up? i think what they're really trying to get at is, is this actually self-defense? is this killing in self-defense or was this a premeditated killing? sir, ted, the bs meter is getting pegged here, i don't know, how about you? >> jon, it is absolutely crazy. this whole case has been a prosecutor's dream. they have been on 17 for -- tv for 17 days. they will knock it out of the park. she has no chance. literally think about the story she is giving, the reason i don't remember because whatever really did happen would be worse than that. we all know from watching the last few weeks, how bad i don't remember sound. you know it sounds

ridiculous. so only imagine how bad if she really said what was going on would sound. she has no credibility with this jury. they don't like her. every question they asked to paint her into a corner. she did it to herself. the defense lawyer did it to her. jon: carey, she admits that she did it. the attempt here by her attorney is to keep her from getting the death penalty. is it possible that after all of these weeks of testimony and all of this questioning, answering, that she has in some way ingratiated herself to at least enough members of the jury that they would vote not to send her to the death chamber? >> well that's what her defense team is hoping. they're hoping that the jury in some way sympathizes with something that she said, something she has gone through. the fact she was battered in previous relationships. the fact she was so aggressively cross-examined by juan martinez. they hope they identify her in some way and sympathize

with her. jon: he was shot a couple of times in the face as i understand it, ted. kind of makes it hard to accept her version of events that he was lunging at her and the gun went off and, then she was afraid, i guess, that he was still going to kill her. i don't know too many people who are able to lung or to continue a lung after taking a couple of bullets to the face. >> oh, there is no way. jon, you hit the nail on the head. zero percent of the forensic evidence works toward anything she said, anything. you know, she talks about the, she talks about shooting him after she stabbed him. the forensic evidence clearly goes the other way on that. and that is why, and you talk about the death penalty. this is what's scary. they put her up there. she has made a complete fool of herself for three weeks and, yeah, you know, you hear some of the stories and some things make you think, well, maybe i feel sorry for jody arias but there are so many things that are so

offensive. her complete disregard for human life and the lies and the manipulation. i think she's painting herself into a death penalty. jon: we'll see what happens. continuing to follow this case. tad nelson. carrie hackett, thank you both. >> thanks, jon. >> thank you. jon: another legal story we're watching, former vice president al gore, he made hundreds of millions of dollars by selling his tv network, current tv, to al jazeera. now a business consultant is filing a lawsuit against gore claiming some of at that cash is his. rick folbaum with the latest on that. rick? >> reporter: al gore must have known he would get socked politically for selling his floundering network to al-jazeera. now he has a legal problem. the lawsuit is from a consultant claiming the $500 million was his idea and he is owed a chunk of it like a finder's fee. gore, former vp and climate change activist doing rich with oil-rich owners of

al-jazeera made a ton of headlines when the deal was announced in january. but the business consultant who laid out the whole plan back in july to a current tv board member and heard nothing more until word of the sale was announced in the media. for his role he wants $5 million and he is hired a high-profile lawyer to represent him, the same attorney by the way who defended the doctor accused of funneling prescription drugs it late model anna nicole smith. no comment from al gore or any of the other players involved as we look at anna nicole. we'll follow the story for you and bring you the latest when we get it. back to you. jon: please do. rick folbaum. thanks. jenna: there is a controversial new diet already hit, a big hit in england and it is getting a lot of attention here in the united states. it is called the fast diet or the five-two diet, whatever you want to call it. the reason why you call it that, you eat whatever you want for five days during the week. then you have to fast by eating a fraction of what you normally do the other two days.

the fast diet book was released in our country this week. the doctor who wrote it claims it really helped him out. helped him lose more than 20 pounds the big question, is it safe? we have a nutritionist dietician and author of the new you, an improved diet, eight rules to change weight and change your life forever. and we have a pediatrician and child obesity specialist on the show the biggest loser, author of red light green light, eat right. there are a lost books on the market, ladies how to eat right. the big question, does it actually work and is it safe? the person that developed it said there's a reason why it works doc, and that is, it basically turns off your fat storing mechanisms and allows you to burn fat easily because you fast two days a week s that logical? is that healthy or something we should try? >> it is definitely not what i consider healthy. it is the exact opposite what i want to teach. i want to eat healthy eating

habits sustainable for life. to fast two days a week. that is not normal eating. i have a feeling people will binge the other five days. i don't think it will work. if it does work it will certainly not be a long term way to live. jenna: carrie, when you hear fast, no food for two days. actually very low-calorie consumption, 5 or 600 calories if you're a many would. does that change things at all? >> it doesn't change anything because as dr. joanna just said it is not a long-term solution. you're dramatically cutting calories, 500 for women, 600 for men on the two days a week, other five days eating whatever you want is obviously not teaching a long-term, healthy habit. jenna: someone is looking for a short-term solution now. something you should consider? >> for a short-term solution, intermittent fasting some studies show it can work. because something helps you lose weight, does not mean, a, it is healthy ore will help for the long haul. i think it can set up a lot

of yo-yo eating problems. >> exactly. jenna: the problem you hear, doctor, is the cheat days. all sorts of dies. you have one day a week to whatever you want or hear about the benefits of fasting. have one day a week you really limit your calories. like keri is saying is that something smart to do? >> i like moderation in general. on my program everyone has two red light foods to eat two days a week. there is no deprivation but we'll limit it twice a week so we don't cut things out completely but to have an entire day to gorge is not hell think. i would rather people head healthy foods and healthy portions and learn to how to keep weight off in the long run. jenna: if we all could do that, we wouldn't have a weight problem in the country. eating a problem. >> fad diets, people are great, i lost 20-pound. you speak a month later they're up ten pound from where we started. they think it works they lost 20 pound. they regained 30 that didn't work in moye opinion.

jenna: what about your experience as a nutritionist, that deals with folks that want to try different diets. is trying something new a fad diet, to kick-start into eating better, could that be part of a strategy? >> i do believe kick-starting a diet plan, lose a little bit of water weight to get you structured for a few days. in my book we have four-day cleanse. it is based on real food. it can give you a jump-start, to get you motivated to incorporate good habits. those four days or those couple days, that quick fix should incorporate good, healthy habits. i use real foods. you eat consistently throughout the day. sort of a framework for a long-term plan. not some crazy thing starving a couple days and eating whatever you want on couple days. jenna: this is like the beatles. it is coming from england ad will be the next big thing. seems like you both are a little questionable. >> very questionable. jenna: we'll see viewers think about that they can tweet us.

all of you are on twitter if they want more information especially talking about diets and what's right. we all have a lot of question. thank you, doc. thank you, keri. great to see you both. >> thank you. jenna: jon? jon: anything that allows me to eat cake is good. jenna: that is the doctor's plan. there you go. jon: i like that. a surprisingly safe investment in a turbulent economy. why some say certain farmland could be a better investment than gold. plus perhaps the senator could have used this during his 13 hours on the senate floor. nutella, so irresist ab, it is bringing on theft. where it is happening and how big of a problem it is. it might surprise you.

jenna: a lot of food on the show today. jon: yeah. jenna: tuna recall. we're talking about new diets. now this story. from columbia university right here in new york city apparently the school is trying to contain a string

of thefts, very strange thefts on their campus. it is costing the school a lot of money. rick has more on what this is all about. rick? >> reporter: i wish your diet panel had stuck around, i would love to hear their thoughts on this, jenna. college kids love to complain about the food in school dining halls, doesn't taste good and too expensive. sometimes the school will stock up on treats that college kids facing all night study session would love like nutella. dining services at columbia responding to student demand offered the creamy chocolate hazelnut spread, the problem is as you mentioned it is so popular, they are smuggling it out of dining halls to eat in their dorm rooms. that is forcing the school thousands of dollars a week to provide something technically only supposed to be consumed inside the dining hall. 100 jars a day. how much one student councilmember heard he is being consumed.

talk about the freshman 15. the for cost reasons the they are encouraging students through the cafeteria line to take food only going to eat during the particular meal. they september e-mails to dining officials that nutella can be bought cheaply in bulge stores like costco and sam's club. college students especially at ivy league schools always helpful with a suggestion. jenna: you know what? get it cheaper so we have it in our dorm room. you like nutella? >> i like it in small amounts. can't eat too much. too sweet. jenna: the dr. joanna and keri said during the break. not so healthy. >> reporter: no. jenna: keep it in mind. >> reporter: tastes too good to be healthy. jenna: maybe the thrill of theft bringing them along, not just the hazel nuts. >> reporter: could be. jenna: rick, thank you. do you have any strong feelings about nutella, jon? jon: i have not tried it. i do not like hazelnut, i don't. hazelnut coffee. jenna: you wouldn't be stealing? can you imagine stealing from a cafeteria

ever? jon: if it were ice cream. jenna: something like that. i think they let you take that though. jon: ice cream. all right. he is the man of the moment. senator rand paul, a 13-hour filibuster to drive home his point on the president's drone policy. he is going to be talking live with megyn kelly, presumably not for 13 hours but that is coming up a little over 20 minutes from now.

jon: happening now we all want to make safe and sound investments right? you've seen those commercials for gold? they play all the time but there could be a safer bet in these uncertain economic times. steve brown has a look at that live from chicago. steve? >> reporter: hey, jon. yeah, good times in the stock market these days. better times if you invested in farmland. now the reserve bank of

chicago did a survey of a five-state area here in the midwest and found last year farmland values throughout the region went up 16%, particularly in the state of iowa. they went up 20%. in iowa in the last five years, up 100%. now that kind of movement usually draws speculators but we're told the vast majority of buyers out in iowa? they're other farmers. >> farmers have looked at what the other options are and a lot of them are saying, i want to invest in farmland because i'm getting a better return there and it also maybe sets up my family for having an expanded operation in the future and helps with the live lie hood of my children. >> reporter: particularly when they can invest up to 50, 60, 70% down payments. that is because corn and soybean prices are at the highest they have been historically over last several years and interest rates for loans are historic

loans. it is a combination bound to boost farm value. >> we still have relatively strong commodity price, very low interest rates. the combination probably gives you land prices what are becoming what i call fully valued. >> reporter: also driving up demand, a trend in the midwest where states that doesn't have cattle ranching are starting to see more and more of it. this obviously takes some land less than dirt farming but it increases demand on this. we're seeing farm sales in the midwest region, jon, that go one million, common, two, three, four. there was a farm sale out in iowa last year went for ten million. stop and think about it. these are farmers putting down, 50, 60, 70% down payments on these huge parcels of land. they have got money in hand because of those grain prices. jon? jon: well it is nice to see farmers finally getting a break. >> reporter: exactly, exactly. jon: a lot of them struggled for a lost years. steve brown, thanks. jenna: it is a rare display giving some folks a whale of

a tale if you will. what they saw and why it was so special straight ahead [ woman ] we had two tiny reasons

to get our adt security system. and one really big reason -- the house next door. our neighbor's house was broken into. luckily, her family wasn't there, but what if this happened here? what if our girls were home? and since we can't monitor everything 24/7, we got someone who could. adt. [ male announcer ] while some companies are new to home security, a has been helping to save lives for over 135 years. we have more monitoring centers, more of tomorrow's technology right here today, and more value. 24/7 monitoring against burglary, fire, and high levels of carbon monoxide starting at just over $1 a day. and now get adt installed for just $99. isn't your family worth america's number-one security company, adt? our girls got us thinki, but the break-in got us calling. and after buying two of everything, it was nice to only need one security system -- adt.
