>> i'm taking picture of you right now, my contact. doing a documentary of my whole life. who would want that? bill: sounds a little funky. martha: it does. thanks for being with us. coming up with brian on the radio shortly and will be with you on o'reilly tonight. bye, everybody. jenna: we start off with a fox news alert on a disaster at sea. four confirmed dead but hundreds more are missing after a ferry carrying mostly high school students sinks off the coast in south korea. i'm jenna lee. jon: what an awful story. i'm jon scott. news breaking early this morning, dramatic video showing the ferry nearly upside down. almost completely submerged. dozens of ships and helicopters searching for survivors. that vessel capsizing what was supposed to be a routine trip to a nearby island. david piper live in bangkok with more. david? >> reporter: jon, this is continuing off the south korean

coast at this hour. it is now 14 hours since that ferry started to capsize and still nearly 300 people are missing. the ferry which was carrying mainly high school students which was traveling from the port of incheon in the northwest overnot to a southern resort island. dozens of ships and helicopters were involved in the rescue effort today. a u.s. navy ship has been helping them. rescue teams managed to pluck some people from the rapidly-capsizing ship. others were told to jump in the water to be picking up by ships. the ferry quickly capsized and was left tilted at 45 degrees on its port side. later pictures showed only a part of its hull was above the surface. it is feared many people may have been trapped when the ship capsized. survivors said they were thrown around as the ship hit something. some trade their friend were trapped and couldn't escape. >> translator: the announcement told us that we should stay still. but the ship was already sinking

and there were a lot of students who did not get out of the ship. >> reporter: it has been reported that the weather was good at the time that the ship began to capsize but there are reports that it may have hit a rock. back to you, jon. jon: david piper reporting live. thank you. jenna: today the sound of gunshots playing out at "the blade runner" murder trial. an expert defense witness testifying about what neighbors may have heard the not that oscar pistorius when he shot his girlfriend reeva steinkamp. paul tilsley has been in the trial. paul? >> reporter: in the reconstructed toilet in court today to dispute the state pathologists view how reeva steinkamp received wounds on her back. when prosecutor gerrie nel came

to cross-examination he tore into dixon coming to findings after looking at only photos and some reports. dixon was not at the autopsy, said nel. he wasn't a wounds ballistic expert or pathologist he has only been to three autopsies but stated that the state pathologist made mistake. once nel attacked he didn't let go. after dixon didn't use any instruments as decibel loudness meter on the defense sound tests. to find out how dark it was in "the blade runner" bedroom, dixon frankly astonished the court instruments he used were his eyes. >> all you did was you hit the cricket bat, the door with the bat? >> that is so, my lady. >> and with your visibility in the dark, you just used your own eyes? >> i used my eyes, my lady. >> reporter: nel piled it on regarding tests where a gun was fired saying dixon wasn't there for the test, the court

documenter know where or how the tests was done, what recording was used but you say it was enough. nel found out music producer rather than a ballistics expert was used to record the gunshots and the defense didn't use same black talon as pistorius did conducting tests. oscar pistorius looked ill. he turned to me and his pace e face was bright red. i noticed a unpleasant smell and some say he was vomiting, jenna. jenna: paul, where is the defense in their presentation of the case and what more do we have to look forward to as far as other key witnesses that they will call? >> reporter: well, we're currently witness number three, jenna and there the defense say they will call between 15 and 17, they say that will take us up to may the 16th, although today we found we'll get 2 1/2 hour, 2 1/2 week break. what is most interesting about what the defense say they have

got is, they have a reconstruction of the crime. it is first time ever in a south african court that such a reconstruction is done because it has been done by an american company, a company in the u.s., and it is an animation of how the bullets were fired. so we've got all that to look forward to, jenna. jenna: we've been curious about this company, a company on the east coast of the united states that had developed that for a pistorius's lawyers. so it will be interesting to see that once we do. paul, thank you very much. great to have your insights as always from inside the courtroom. a little later in the show our legal panel take as look whether this expert witness in particular was of any help to the pistorius defense team as some said he didn't do himself any favors on the stand this week and last. jon: there are new allegations today that the administration is quote, cooking the books on the obamacare numbers. new information that the white house has requested several changes to a questionnaire used by the folks at the census bureau. the white house says the changes

are intended to improve the accuracy of the survey but critics say the new questions will make it harder to get a clear picture how many people are actually benefiting from the law. let's talk about with jonah goldberg, editor at large for nationalreview.online. david hawkings is the senior editor for role call. help us understand, jonah, exactly what is going on here. the census bureau are of the folks who crunch all the numbers and know the best information about everything in this country. one key question is how many people have benefited from obamacare, how many new people are insured. what are these changes that are taking place to the lines of questions being asked? >> right. and in your setup you said on one side people are saying this will make it more accurate. on the other side people are saying that will make it more difficult how much obamacare has progressed. both things are in fact true.

historically the way census bureau which is supposed to be entirely apolitical is sacrosanct in washington not to politicize the census beer row. anything that appears like politicization gets people nervous. the way they used to ask the question made it seem like there were more uninsured americans in america than there probably actually were. when obama obama was trying to sell obamacare he had no problem with these inflated numbers. seems now the idea of getting the census number to be more accurate now that obamacare is implemented will make it seem like there are fewer uninsured americans, this is to a lot of people is awfully convenient. why is the obama administration green lighting this change only after it will make it might makl than it actually is. jon: in statistics, david, a baseline is a critical measure. you have to have a baseline for any report. they're changing the baseline in

effect here? >> that's right. so they are changing the baseline. they will be asking questions about people's health insurance in 2013. the year in which some of these changes were being made. and then, they will be asking them a year from now, about 2014. and the criticism of course is that they should leave things alone, starting from 2012, when things were really old status quo so you could have '12, '13, '14. it is fair to say that if the administration wanted to freeze this in place through this year, next year, 2016, critics of obamacare, critics of the administration would be saying that the president is acting politically to try and make a political move to freeze the census, census bureau from doing the scientifically demographically accurate thing to make a political report. there is certain condemned if they do, condemned if they don't. when is it appropriate to make

these changes? jon: this new line of questioning, jonah, we know and census bureau knows, by changing the questions the way they're asking them, however they're doing it, they're going to find that there are more people who have insurance and so, lo and behold they have decided that's the way they will ask the question from here on out? >> right. it turns out, look, if you ask people i think the way they have been doing it, did you ever go in the last year without insurance? and people forget. people, last february, did i start my new job yet, that kind of thing? now they're saying did you recently not have insurance or something like that. they're making it more accurate, more time bound, more recent and so this questioning. they find that they get fewer respondents saying they're uninsured. and i'm all in favor of it being more accurate. i am kind of dubious that this white house, when the new numbers come out from the changed question, will be all

that eager to clarify that look, this cops from a changed question. they will, i'm sure, pocket whatever talking point that they get out of this. they do that with all sorts of numbers from the pay gap, to cbo projections. they keep going around saying obamacare reduced number of people, reduced the cost of health care premiums when even the government's own actuaries say that is flatly not true. so the idea somehow they are going to be honest about this up front and much of the press will hold their feet to the fire i'm deeply skeptical about. jon: so, david, we should take with a grain of salt whatever the numbers are on obamacare coverage from here on out? is that basically right? >> not from here on out but for the first couple of years because as, i think the census bureau is being up front about this. this story was based on census, this is a story first in the "new york times" yesterday, based on census bureau memorandums. they're saying we're changing the baseline. we're fundamentally changing

this. it won't be an accurate way to compare 2013 to 2012. but in the years going forward, there will be sort of new baseline and years over time, there will be a fair comparison but, i think there is now universal agreement that comparing 2013 to 2012, not right. but 2014, the year when many people will have signed up as we know from the big surge in sign-ups in '14 to '13 should be a little bit fair. but i think clearly a triumph of the bureaucrats over the politicians that is going to make life more difficult for the politicians. jon: and numbers a little less accurate or so it would seem. what a story. thanks very much. david hawkings, jonah goldberg, thanks. jenna: a 47-year-old man accused of fatally shooting his wife. police are investigating what he ate before allegedly pulling the trigger. an interesting story. you don't want to miss that. battle to keep iran from building a nuclear weapon. the country's former nuclear

week's mass stabbing that left 22 injured there. the suspect remains in custody at a juvenile facility. jenna: iran's former nuclear chief making news this morning. he says iran's peaceful nuclear program has been repeatedly sabotaged by computer viruses and faulty machine parts and the united states government is behind all of this. chief core respondent john than hunt is here. >> the former head of iran's nuclear program laying out detail when he says u.s. and other intelligence agencies carried out a constant campaign of sabotage against iran's nuclear program. he told an iranian newspaper that u.s. would prevent companies from sending equipment to iran and themselves put that equipment on the black market, having insured it would actually damage iranian operations. he claims, quote, they opened channels that they personally control, in order to provide

iran with equipment that would also benefit them. this for example, is how they got the stuxnet virus into iran. they planted it into equipment iran purchased. stuxnet is the computer virus credited with slowing iran's nuclear program for months. u.s. officials never commented on any involvement in that operation but leading nuclear expert, david albright a former weapons inspector and now head of the institute for science and international security said such sabotage operations are obviously and necessarily happening. >> iran is going out buying these things illegally for sanctioned programs that the u.n. security council has said, has to stop. and therefore the western intelligence agencies are taking steps to create, make it harder for iran to succeed in operating those sanctioned and banned activities. >> reporter: the former head of

iran's nuclear program also admits that iran has repeatedly lied about its nuclear operations purely because of the danger of sabotage, implying iran otherwise would be perfectly honest. peter brookes of the heritage found says that argument is nonsense. >> he is trying to build a case for what they did for their deception, their disinformation but the fact of the matter is, if iran had been truthful about their nuclear program all along, we wouldn't have these problems and we wouldn't be discussing these issues. >> reporter: talks between iran, the u.s. and other nations are ongoing on the nuclear issue but if diplomacy fails it appears both sides are still prepared to play a much higher stakes game of industrial espionage and subterfuge, jenna. quite the game being played there. jenna: as you mentioned, sounds a little bit like a cold war novel or movie. >> reporter: really does. fascinating reading this stuff. jenna: nice to know some folks are paying attention, whoever they are.

molly, why would these al qaeda types want this video to get out? >> reporter: several reasons, jon. one of them to suggest to show off how they could have open-air, public, al qaeda jihadist video in yemen without the u.s. launching a drone strike. the leader of al qaeda in the arabian peninsula based in yemen is seen clearly in the video. no mask, no scarf around his face calling for more strikes on the u.s. one fox military analyst says a couple things analyzing video. we haven't seen al qaeda display this kind of confidence since usama bin laden put out al qaeda training videos before 9/11. the analyst says this may be his way of sending a shot across the bow to al qaeda's leader, eye ayman al-zawahiri who took over when bin laden was killed. >> they may be trying to undermined al-zawahiri a little bit. he is hiding in afghanistan. he hasn't been seen. he doesn't talk much at all. even with radio tapes like

bin laden does. here 24 new leader, younger and actually in the fight is out there pronouncing himself and clearly is going to gain in popularity and support. >> reporter: in the video he says, quote, we muslim nate the cross. he goes on to say, quote, the bearer of the cross is america. jon? jon: but, some of the faces in the video are blurred, right? why would they do that? >> reporter: right. that is also something interesting about this video. most of the jihadists are visessable. they're not entirely concealed. you can see all or parts of their faces there. are some faces that al qaeda took great pains to blur out before the video was made public. it appears the skin color of several of those men with blurred faces is lighter or white. which could suggest that these are al qaeda recruits from western nations and al qaeda wants to protect their identities. jon? jon: molly henneberg. interesting stuff. molly, thank you. jenna: jon, despite all the

jon: get awe quick look right now what's still to come this hour of "happening now." democrats making a new push for women voters but what makes single ladies a better target for the party than married women? brain drain. why a new study says your mind could start slowing down a lot earlier than you think. motor head mania. we'll take you live to the new york auto show for a sneak-peek of the latest cars and trucks before it opens to the public. there is a new report out this week that the federal government stands to make a massive chunk of change from student loans, to the tune of $127 billion to be exact. this after president obama pledged to be making college more affordable. shannon bream live from washington with more on that. so how does the government,

shannon, stand to make billions of dollars off student loans? >> reporter: jon, you know the president made clear as he spoke to college campuses last few years that reforms to student loan programs have been a top priority for his administration. support is of concept by the government taking more direct control of lender this would provide a more cost effective system for students. here is matt chingo of the institute. >> the problem that existed back then was poorly designed. private lenders were making too much money, giving out money given by the government, taking no risk and compensated too generously for it. >> reporter: private lenders out the government taking a more direct role. according to cbo projections reality of playing out, setting student loan interest rates based on government's cost to borrow, is $127 billion surplus to the department of education over the next decade, jon.

jon: so now there are critics raising the red flag on government involvement in student loans, right? >> reporter: yeah. they say what is called a surplus in their idea is more appropriately called a profit. the very thing that critics of private lenders objected to. so why should the government now be doing the very same thing when the whole idea was to make higher education as affordable as possible? skeptics worry that not only will some miss out on the chance to pursue higher education. those who already done it, struggling to repay the loans are put in a tough position. here is chris hicks. campaign manager for jobs with justice. >> what students really need is an affordable education. what borrowers need is real alternatives when struggling to pay the debt off. not just the money they pay every month. it is what they're not spending money on. >> reporter: hicks went on to point out when you're struggling with those loans you may not save for retirement. you may not start a small business. he said for his peers there is also the question of, do you risk defaulting on student loan

or paying for health care? that is a tough choice. jon? jon: a lot of quandaries there. shannon bream in washington. thanks, shannon. >> you know doubt don't want to mess with moms who are rising up. here in alaska i think of the mama grizzly bears that rise up on the behind legs when somebody is coming to attack their cubs, to do something adverse toward their cubs. no, the mama grizzlies, they rear up and you know if you thought, pitbulls were tough, well you don't want to mess with the mama grizzlies. jenna: that is former alaska governor sarah palin back in may 2010, talking about impact mothers have on society and politics as well. will 2014 be more about mama grizzlies are or about the carey bradshaw types. here is take by democratic pollsters targeting specific single ladies or rather unmarried women, a big group. their argument is summed up this way.

marital status is one of the strongest predictors person will vote and which party. why so many progressives and democrats are paying attention now. you might assume unmarried women are the main target for democrats in 2014 because they're pro-choice, pro-birth control and pro-women's health. it is true these women are pro-choice, our research shows what motivates them to vote on economic issues, particularly those that affect working women and mothers about the economy of the argument these economic issues will get these unmarried women to the polls and help democrats lock down 2014. is it really that simple? we'll talk about it now. maria schaefer, executive director of independent women's forum and marjorie clifton, former obama campaign consultant and principal in clifton consulting. what do you think about it? is it really that simple? >> well it is definitely not simple, and i say i found this study refreshing and it wasn't about reproductive health and debate drone on related to women. it is about the economist

frankly that is something that impacts all americans. what we found, i think republicans and democrats can agree, women have incredible power in our economic status. right now, 25% of the growth in the gdp we've seen since 1970 is ad attributed to women in the fork worse. so what women care about in the coming election is about how are we protected economically? specifically single women. so 25% of those single women are actually moms as well, they have children under 18 at home. so what will be imperative for republicans and democrats, positioning the economy how it impacts that group. jenna: that is one of the questions, sabrina, whether it is specifically a democratic strategy and whether or not it specifically targets unmarried women because isn't this an issue, heaven forbid even men, care about, the economy. >> it comes down to politics. politically unmarried women are critical voting bloc for democrats. in fact they voted for president obama in 2008 by margin of 45 points. so unmarried women are critical

part of the base. they are basis for sandra plouffe and life of julia and war on women rhetoric. this is the next step in that campaign to try to make sure that they stay with the democratic party. i think that marjorie is correct, that women do want to talk about economic issues but i think we have a little bit different perspective how you would actually go about doing that. if you asked a women, do you support paycheck fairness act? guess what, 90% do but they don't know what impact that will have on the economy, when they learn that support drops precipitously. we have to have honest conversation if conservatives and especially republicans. jenna: we heard war on women led with by the democratic party? do you think that is over? do you think for 2014 the war on women is gone and it is just about the economy. >> oh, no, i think it will continue. as sabrina said there is lot of value in this bloc the voters.

58% of the democratic votes in the virginia race that happened last year were that group of unmarried women. sabrina pointed out, 2/3 of unmarried women voted for barack obama. i think that war on women will perpetuate. but i think it custodies service to all women to couch it as a war. issues that impact women impact everybody. frankly, you know, things like the paycheck fairness act are actually impact everyone in a positive way as well. i think polarizing them or misrepresenting them is something that sun fair to business or unfair, is actually not the truth because the economic value of women in the economy is actuallydh of absolutely valuable to the economy. jenna: when he we talk about women in politics, we talk about the women like they're strange exotic creatures that no one can figure out. jon: they are. they are. jenna: oh, jon. what are the women going to do? we can't figure it out. and interesting sabrina, in this group, this bloc, this voting block, the unmarried women

include single women in their 20s, divorce es in their 60s and 70s and younger. it is being unmarried. is fair to put the whole bloc together like that. >> in some ways it is. we talk about women who may be slightly more vulnerable. if you're married you get the support network not only from the spouse and community you often have as part of that marriage. so to be fair, yes, some women may turn to the government to see that as a positive thing. what i would urge those women to think about, however, is the message that they're getting from democrats and from progressives who are saying you should be a ward of the state. you need to be taken care of. as republicans -- jenna: are republicans doing better job than that. here are the democratic poll and they have this plan and have a couple points. democrats should follow but do the other side have a better plan or even a plan at all? >> well i think that the republicans have a long way to go to get their message out. there is a message to be had. we need robust economic growth and job creation that gives

women and men the most flexibility in the work place. we need ownership and control of our health care dollars. we need vastly expanded educational freedom which so many democrats who are touting the paycheck fairness act, they stand in way of d.c. opportunity vote voucher program here in washington. there are plenty ever things that republicans can run on if they choose to. the issue are they going to get out there and really address these issues to women and not let democrats runaway with it? jenna: that is good question. we'll see if there is counter argument now that the democratic pollsters come out. my exotic friends, thank you very much. good to have you back. thank you. >> thank you, jenna. jon: there is a new study that finds your brain does slow down with age and might be shocked to hear when it actually starts. plus, the hottest things on four wheels. a sneak-peek at the new york auto show and the latest cars that will be wowing drivers. ♪

jon: just in to the fox newsroom, a new video of the rescue operation continuing, looking for survivors in that capsized ferry. the thing turned over, sank very quickly apparently, throwing hundreds of people in the water. and at last report, more than 200 were still missing. the ferry primarily was carrying high school students on an excursion to an island just off the coast of the main land. but it didn't reach the island. there are suggestions that it may have hit something underwater but whatever the cause, this thing went down very quickly and a lot of people are still missing. those who were rescued described being in very, very cold waters. the kind of water you can only survive for about 90 minutes before hypothermia sets in and you simply expire. at any rate the search is going on.

it is a full press to try to get those who might still be aboard that thing to safety, but hundreds of people still missing. the death toll is expected to increase. new next hour, police search for a burglar after a bizarre heist. the thief sneaks in while the family is asleep, takes a few valuables, but even more creep picks the perp is caught on tape staring at their baby. the landscape for 2014 candidates is looking different than it did during the midterms four years ago. how the changing influence of the tea party could affect the election this november. plus, billionaire former mayor michael bloomberg putting up $50 million to try to curb gun violence and challenge the nra. but advocates for gun rights say they are not buying what he is selling. jenna: now for the big news, jon. a new study shows your brain could start slowing down at the ripe old age of 24. jon: so i have a couple of years

left. jenna: right, exactly. researchers looked a the more than 3300 people ages 16 to 44, studying things like concentration and multitasking and the ability to shift focus from immediate to long-term issues and they found slowerintd many starting to decline in the mid 20s. brian russell a psychologist, joins us right now. why mid 20s? why can't we get a couple more years out of it, dr. russell? >> well there is good news and bad news. what we know certain kinds of cells do sort of reach their peak in terms of their duplication and replication, sort of their peak development relatively early in life. when we get elderly the decline is offset by simultaneous gains and wisdom in experience. for example, few years ago, "sully" sullenberger was one of the older pilots for his airline when he successfully brought his

plane down on the hudson river, probably because of all the wisdom that he had acquired with all the decades in the cockpit. so the bottom line i think is, yeah, past a certain age a guy will probably not be doing certain things like playing college football for example, because of the physical performance effects, however, if that same individual is able to, oh, i don't know, write an excellent book about jesus with some first-hand reportage into it, which is the better contribution to humanity? jenna: one of the articles put it this way, that you may be slower but you could be smarter because of the experience that life has given you? >> yes. jenna: and do you believe that, dr. russell? just to be sure because we're all going to leave this segment feeling a little bit like, okay, this is the reason why i slowed down a little bit because i'm over the age of 24? >> well, yeah. ask yourself, who do you want in the cockpit? do you necessarily, especially with these planes today, for

example, being able to do so much for themselves? do you really need a person that has slight percentage better visual acute and motor response time or person with wisdom and experience to bring the plane down on the river? jenna: like fine wine. there is where the whole metaphor comes from. better with age but just not as quickly. dr. russell, let me ask you about this. there is another study zeroing specifically on guys. this follows up the last panel so appropriately some researchers say guys get gumpy around the age of 70. they have proven it in some way. they spoke to 1300 men age as 3 to 85 over the course of 15 years. they found around 65 or 70 it can become very difficult for men to deal with everyday hassles. that is why they get grumpy at that age. what do you think about that? >> we auld know old guys can get grumpy.

there are bummers getting up into those years. they have health issues and some are lonely. we marginalize our old people in this culture than some cult us. some don't worry about what others think. they get assertive with their senority and get older and fresher. the bottom line they don't have to get grumpy. butthey do we muster a little empathy when they going through. even young people like us hopefully will be there some day. jenna: we want to get to that point at least 70. interesting one study found grumpier the older men got, happier they were. they got what they wanted in places that they live. maybe grumpy is good because you get what you want, dr. russell. get it off your chest. maybe. jenna: maybe. i don't know. if we encountered anyone in our travels today and i know someone doesn't have to be 70 to be grumpy. dr. russell. thank you as always.

>> thank you. jon: there is breaking news to bring you in the case of a missing teenager in texas. arthel neville has the latest on that. arthel? >> hey, jon, actually good news in this story. investigators say they found the kidnapper and the little girl at a trailer park in texas. they say, the police that the girl appeared unharmed but she was taken to the hospital as precaution. the kidnapper was taken into custody for a kidnapping warrant that was issued for the abduction of 14-year-old elizabeth rex. let me give you a little bit of the backstory on this harrowing ordeal, jon, that lasted for about two days. elizabeth as i said is 14-year-old. we'll pop up a picture of here. she has down syndrome, autism and predevelopmental disorder which causes her to act like a 5 or a 6-year-old. so you can imagine how frightened her parents why were. so monday, she went missing from her family home in magnolia, texas, which is near houston. show you another picture now, of the suspect. his name is randy johnson.

he is 51 years old. and johnson was a family friend hoe the parents took in to their home eight months ago because he told them he was suffering from colon cancer. but he was getting too close to lizzie as she is called. so they asked him to leave. the parents say johnson took lizzie with him. on monday, lizzie walked outside of the home to a parked -- park area near the home and she vanished. parents believe johnson told her to wait outside of the family's trailer park for him. they issued a amber alert. the alert has been canceled. the good news that little elizabeth, lizzie, has been found. she is taken to the hospital to get checked as a routine. so far they're saying she is okay. and her alleged abductor, mr. johnson, is in custody. so i'm happy to report that the little girl has been found, jon. jon: good news all the way around. arthel neville. thank you. >> this story goes a little

jenna: more than 60 vehicles will be unveiled at this year's new york auto show. rick leventhal is live on the showroom floor with a sneak-peek before the show officially kicks off on friday. >> reporter: very cool here, jenna. there are electric cars,

hydrogen powered vehicles, exotic cars, muscle cars. more than 60 never-before-seen vehicles in the world or north america. there are also a lot of vehicles here and a lot of stuff you just can't buy yet no matter how bad you want it. that includes a toyota i-road, compact personal transportation vehicle that toyota says provide convenience after motorcycle with the comfort and stability of a car. it is a cross between a electric car, a moped and segue. it is eight feet long, three feet long. it leans and banks into turns. it can only travel 31 miles on a charge. only available in japan and france starting next year as part of a car share program. this is something else we want to show you. this is 2014 nissan rogue. i'm sure everyone had the situation maybe not balloons or sufficient in the back of your car and you can't see out of the rear view mirror. this vehicle is equipped with a smart rear view mirror. it is the world's first ldcd

monitor on a rear view mirror. this is the traditional mirror. now you flip the switch. it provides high resolution cam of a video image of our producer ron pacing back and forth behind the car. they say this will work, no matter how tall your back seat passengers or stuff in the back. road conditions, weather conditions, rain, snow, sunlight. if the blair is really bad or dawn or dusk you will get a high resolution clear video image whatever is behind the vehicle. until you flip it back to the normal setting. you can use a regular rear view mirror. this is available in japan this year but unfortunately not available in the u.s. until next year or sometime after that. you can buy the car. you just can't get the smart rear view mirror just yet. jenna: very cool technology. looks like you're able to see pretty good, rick, in the driver's seat. do you have, i know you're not supposed to play favorites, have to be fair and balance correspondent on the floor of the show but do you have a favorite you've seen yet?

>> reporter: well i have a soft spot in my heart for mustangs. they debuted the 50-year anniversary model. can only get in the cool white or kona blue. it's a gorgeous mustang. they're only making 1964 of them. they chop ad 2015 mustang and put it on top of the empire state building. you don't want to buy that one but mustang is pretty sweep. jenna: put your chip in for one of those 1964, rick? >> reporter: we, we could take up a collection. jenna: we could for the entire department. i like that idea. we could all share it. i'm sure that would go over great. rick, thank you. >> reporter: i will even take you for a ride, jenna. i will take you for a ride. jenna: i don't know about your driving skills but i would take the risk thank you. >> reporter: yeah, probably a wise decision. jenna: we could do a car share, couldn't we? rick is on to something. car share mustang. jon: "happening now" new mustang. jenna: i think our boss was respond favorably to that.

jon: i'm sure they like that. and split the cost of parking in new york city. jenna: that would take a lot of money. jon: costs about as much as the car. the latest from the "blade runner" murder trial. the defense pushes back after days of shaky testimony from oscar pistorius of the that's coming up óqoqúúñ@

>> hitting in on the east coast, update on one of the top stories of the day. four people confirmed dead. 300 still missing after a passenger ferry sinks off the coast of south korea. carrying mostly high school students, taken to an overnight trip to a tourist island. this passenger was rescued and described what happened. >> the water began to flow over the fences. definitely we needed to out of the ship. i tried to use a fair acting wisher. it would not break. >> they were able to rescue just over 160 people.

hundreds and hundreds of others still missing. we will take you updated as we hear more. bill: this fox news alert, tensions running high in eastern youkraine at this hour. rolling into the city. they are backed by dozens of masked gunmen and surrounding the main administrative building. one of the men on the vehicle said they were ukrainian troops who defected to the pro-russian side. if true it raises concerns of an uprising by defecting forces in the eastern part of the country. they were government soldiers conducting a so-called false flag operation in order to move about freely. much more in a live report minutes away. martha: congres congress may ben easter break, lawmakers returning, full steam ahead.

little more time out of the office. the issue that will be front and center will be obamacare. i am jenna lee. >> i am jon scott. the balance of power going forward. "the new york post" writes the key point is the bizarre assumption those who signed up for obamacare will like what they get. the first ctims of the flat lie that if you like your health care plan, you can keep it. are they going to forgive the lie because they're inside of his system now? or will they feel bitter about it as time goes on given the premiums are going to rise and coverage is going to get worse. right republicans may still win the senate in part by campaigning against obamacare, but some g.o.p. candidates are

embracing the general language of universal health coverage. often observed indicating for repeal is a loser. but more to the story. opposing the goals is complicated. talk about it with senior politics reporter. it is still a potent political issue. the issue is whether obamacare is deemed to be working by those people whom it is covering or not. do you have an answer? >> for most, obamacare will not be a winner in 2014. most of these competitive races, six or seven battlegrounds are in red states where the law is not possible. take a look at the messages they are putting on the airways. talking about her work on behalf of energy companies.

in arkansas, mark pryor is not touting obamacare, he is attacking the republican opponent for voting against the farm bill, but there are some states where it is a bit more nuanced like in new hampshire a tough race against scott brown, she is saying scott brown wants to appeal it, that will not work here. i want to help fix the law. so it depends on the state, but overall you don't the democrats campaigning on obamacare specifically. jon: they had fo four years to t this thing put together. now that it is here, it seems to be a mess. the democrats who brought it to fruition only democrat votes, can they argue they should be allowed more time to fix what they have created? >> it is going to be very difficult for them to make that argument. it depends on the makeup of the

state. in new hampshire it may go over a little better more democratic audience, more independent audience. louisiana and arkansas has more republicans, they will not buy it. one of the things to the democrats pushing back on his they will attack republicans on medicare. they are saying supporting cutting medicaid. supported the ryan budget which went to cut medicare benefits to seniors, with that threaten their retirement? we will not hear democrats saying obamacare. you will hear them talk about medicare and what republicans have tried to do in the past on that. jon: the 7 million number the president said was essential where that was the baseline number he wanted to get to by the end of march, he got to that number, and kathleen sebelius

resigned. is that a sign everything is in good shape now, everything is hunky-dory? the tree of health and human services can say goodbye to this thing? >> there is a report in "the new york times" that secretary kathleen sebelius is considering running for u.s. senate in kansas and where would obamacare become a bigger issue in a senate race than if she were to do so? that is unlikely given what she just went through and the questions she has had to deal with with the rollout, but to your question, of course not. she was sort of the face of all this and will be a punching bag but it is not known as kathleen sebelius care. it is still obamacare. something regardless of obamacare at the health care law because president obama is so unpopular, just using his name is going to be enough for them

to win races. jon: looks like a very different election coming up in november. thank you. jenna: submit details of a story we have been covering, the battle between the cattle rancher and federal government, that battle that resulted in an armed standoff. where are we today? more on this. william. reporter: they said on friday night the legal structures on the ranch had to be removed restore the land the natural state and prevent the rancher from restarting his illegal cattle business. however with court orders justifying this only appears to give the agency the authority to seize and impound the cattle, not as these pictures show, destroy waterlines and fences, damage that he claims on cowboys who allegedly killed two prized bowls.

>> you can send in the pen where that bull was shot. nothing where it is advance. on the ground the post is still at the same spot. it has not even moved. not like the bull was trying to attack people or anything. sitting here, has not moved, no damage whatsoever. where was the damage in that bull? >> the blm wranglers allegedly shot another bull because they were considered dangerous. bundy's friends were told by those wranglers, this was shot five times. >> should cattle, danger the environment. >> the blm is not accepting phone calls from the media. the only submit questions by

e-mail which we did about 19 hours ago regarding these allegations and got nothing back. jenna: what was supposed to happen to the cattle? >> remember, he doesn't even recognize federal authorities to assess the damages that they would sell his cattle. we discovered one big problem, nobody in nevada would touch bundy's cattle for fear of being blacklisted. >> very nervous about taking what is in the past basically stolen cattle from the federal government. >> documents show they paid a utah wrangler $966,000 to collect the capital, and a utah auctioneer to sell them but they did not plan for this. i urgently request i heard it be

not sent to utah. they send it three days before the round up just wha one agencs still sitting on the cattle saturday morning and had no way to get rid of them. they continue to use it in violation of the court order which says the argument is "without merit." jenna: william, thank you. jon: now the fox news alert return to top story on the growing prices in ukraine. six armored vehicles flying russian flags entering a city controlled by pro-russian surgeons in eastern ukraine. claiming to be defecting government soldiers and seizing key ministry to building there.

>> despite the rhetoric from nato and the united states, they are doubling down on their strategy in the eastern part of the ukraine. some video just come in based on the tactics they are using, this is video from the associated press allegedly showing pro-russian thugs beating up a man they thought was loyal to ukraine. not only are these members of the ukrainian russian community, there is also a lot of russian special forces now on the ground backing these guys up. they are now in buildings 11 cities. the police, border, they be in

trouble of keeping law and ord order, simply abandoned their posts rather than they fight against russians. once the russians have taken a number of these buildings they put up huge banners not denouncing the ukrainians have taken these buildings from, some of the banners saying things about america that we cannot quote on television. the ukrainians are sending what part of the military they still control the number of units from here in the western part of ukraine sending them east, helicopters, equipment, that kind of a thing but when you matchup ukrainian military against the russian military in terms of numbers, equipment, training and capabilities, is anything but a fair fight.

it is thought a fight between the ukrainians and russians, the 82nd airborne taking out a boy scout troop would not be a good day in the east. jenna: a new warning of the effects of even casual marijuana use. while some say may not be harms at all. the shocking study of what pot can do to your brain. and scal scary surveillance. a community is on edge because police search for the suspect. we have a live report coming up next. iprise asked people a simple question:

twice a week still show significant abnormalities in brain structures dealing with motivation and emotion. a physician and professor of public health at johns hopkins university. one of the things that comes up when we talk about marijuana is or is not a lot of research of long-term effects, maybe just physical effects of smoking marijuana. what do you think this study tells us? >> we have been told there is absolutely no downside to your health, and we have been told it is dangerous. it is something of a mild impact on health, probably immediate, humbly not long-lasting and the study published in the journal of neuroscience from the harvard hospitals, a respected group over there says there are changes in the brain that are clearly seen on mri among casual users.

20 that use and 20 that don't, college-age folks and those who use it had changes in the size, character and features of two centers of the brain. jon: how to that impact the folks at hadley at rallies, he said we don't know this is long-lasting, how that impact their day-to-day lives? with a feel a difference in than those who didn't have that? >> what we know is these two centers are responsible for mood and for pleasure. they are not directly involved in cognition or skill or memory, but we all know mood and directly affect your memory or skill set or cognition, so i think really it is impossible to tell based on someone's skill or memory when they are not using whether or not the center is affected when they are using marijuana. marijuana today is different from marijuana in the 60s and

70s. that has much lower concentrations of thc or the active opponent of marijuana today. jenna: real quick, this always comes up talking about marijuana and comparisons. potentially the brain abnormalities, we don't know long-lasting warehouse weeping they are, how does that compare to someone who is a casual drinker of alcohol, is there a way to compare the two? >> we look at a public standpoint, number of deaths, accidents and problems in society. alcohol, smoking, driving, all of these substances cause more problems in people's lives and in society then casual marijuana use. it is not totally safe, also not one of the things tha it has no impact on your health. it probably impacts mood and they in some way for casual users we don't know if it is a gateway drug.

those who say it is one way or another are not looking at the science. jenna: especially with some of the laws of marijuana changing. thank you so much. jon: some terrifying moments after a burglar breaks into their home. take a look at this video from a the home surveillance system showing an intruder staring at infant while the child was asleep. grabbing some items and taking off burglarizing another home a bit later. the baby was not hurt but now folks in the neighborhood are on edge. >> do not feel as safe anymore. you have your family, falling asleep, you don't feel jon: live in dallas with more on that strange plea. >> kind of reminds you of something you might see in a horror movie. the couple did not even know they had been burglarized until the next morning when their

neighbor had called and said they found a laptop and briefcase in the yard. these are looking at the home surveillance system, the notice $60 were missing from a wallet and saw this, an intruder over their sons crib shining a flashlight on him and watching the child asleep. thankfully nobody was hurt, but the crook managed to slip and id out undetected. >> what is disturbing about this burglary as with all burglaries is in this one the residence were asleep while this was taking place. this individual came through the house, walked through each bedroom. >> police believe the same guy is responsible for a string of other burglaries in the area. a teenager between 16 and 18

years old. ironically that couple, the family have a home security system they just forgot to set it. jon: thanks. jenna: the chief prosecutor launches a blistering attack on a key defense witness. what it means the outcome of the case next.

jon: major developments in the murder trial in south africa as an expert defense witness testifies about what neighbors may have heard the night oscar pistorius shot and killed his girlfriend. the prosecutor withering examination trying to discredit the witness all before the judge

agrees to a two week break in the trial. let's bring in our legal panel. philip snyder is a former prosecutor. so, if you are the prosecutor in this case and all of a sudden the judge has to take a two weeks right, which side does that generally favor? >> this case it does not favor either side. this prosecutor had a blistering marathon cross-examination. all sides are exhausted. this break will be beneficial to all parties to get them refreshed for the remainder of the trial. jon: is that how you see it? >> i do. there is no jury here. you're not inconvenience anybody except the core staff, and they could probably use a break as well. so i agree, does not hurt anybody. both sides have a chance now to regroup and keep going with the break.

what is needed break after a long stretch a trial. jon: this trial was opposed to be over by now, now it will be going at least until mid-may. >> just had his foot on the chair attacking and attacking as a judge letting him do whatever he wants, so that the cross-examination going maybe one or two days went five days. lot of the witnesses are going under that kind of mechanism where they are just asking a million questions, the doors open for everything. jon: there are lot of fields were sometimes less is more. does that often turn out to be the case in the courtroom? >> absolutely. brevity is beautiful. i'm getting ready for trial next week and the judge yesterday stressed that to all the lawyers. so it is something you take very seriously. in our system the jury does not want to hear lawyers talk, hear

themselves speak. you make a point and you get out. brevity is beautiful if you can pull it off. you really have to make your point, but you don't have to belabor them. jon: he testified he thinks the shot hit her in a different order than the official coroner testified to. what would be the point of trying to change the judge's opinion as to which shot hit her when? >> it goes toward the defense. this guy is a geologist. unlimited experts, you could pick a ballistics expert, you put a geologist as your first witness? i cannot believe that is the expert they chose. i cannot imagine a judge giving much weight to somebody who

plays with rocks every day. jon: a waste of an expert? jenna: it looks like the defense was desperate they could not find an expert who would agree with their conclusion which is really bad form. something is not going well here for the defense. jon: i guess i'm reminded of te o.j. simpson trial in which was criticized for letting this thing going on and on and on, and i wonder, will the fact that this thing is dragging on so long, will that come to accrue against the judge who is hearing the case? >> the o.j. trial was a jury trial, so the jurors were just exhausted. take as long as little as you want to get the correct decision in this case. >> i agree. the judge can do whatever she wants because she is the judge.

she is on her own timeline, she doesn't have to worry about jurors falling asleep are being fatigued. jon: i have not heard a lot out of this for oscar pistorius. we're going to have to go, thank you both. jenna: a billion are giving a boost to gun-control activist. michael bloomberg funny a new group to challenge the nra, but could the push backfire on democrats in november? jonathan will have that topic in just a moment. plus, it was our bust finding some fake cap kind of pull off a raid of their own. we will explain next.

jon: former new york city mayor michael bloomberg putting up big money in his battle against the nra. bloomberg says he plans to spend $50 million this year to build a grassroots network to motivate voters who want to curb gun violence. bloomberg is an outspoken critic of the nra and a supporter of gun control. the nra did not have an immediate comment on this news. let's bring in emily miller a washington based journalist and author. what is he going to take $50 million and do, emily? >> well he says he will use it to try to buy votes for the 2014 election. obviously $50 million to like bloomberg is worth $25 billion is dime to you and me, jon. he has been effective.

$50 million is more than the nra will be spending. more than the cokes are -- kochs are spending. he thinks he can buy the hearts of american people to oppose the second amendment. jon: there are five million nra members. will he overcome voting power with what, 25, $50 million. >> no of course he won't. that is what sort of mike bloomberg never seems to understand and keeps doing same thing. he thinks money will buy influence and buy elections. why the nra is so strong, not the money they spend it is amount of people they have in the organization. five million people in this country who belong to this organization because they feel so strongly their constitutional right to keep and bear arms is something worth fighting for. so you can't buy that. and he keeps saying he is oh, we'll get a million supporters in our new group. he has a new group starting today. sort of putting women at the forefront of it, it is not going to work because behind that is an organization that is trying

to disarm women. that is not going to get women to support his organization. jon: well, and you're one of those women who walked into a house, you were house sitting one day. found a bunch of potential thugs inside. >> robbers. jon: that is what caused you to go ahead and arm yourself? >> exactly. i mean, just a few years ago i never shot a gun before and i never thought about owning a gun. when i was victim of a home invasion and had about 15 men, drug addicts facing me, it was a first time i realized that i needed to defend myself. and i wanted to get a gun. that's why you see across the country in the last few years, half of all first-time gun owners are women. and that is also the target in 2014 of the election of the democrats especially trying to get back, trying to keep the senate and the republicans trying to win the senate. republican woman are a main part of that, you see bloomberg now going after women and women are saying like me, i want to defend myself. the last thing i will do ask give up my right to defend

myself, even more $50 million. jon: his new organization is called, every town for gun safety. they have already got one, i guess you would call it a print ad or a billboard out. it says the presence of a gun makes it five times more likely domestic violence will turn into murder. how do you answer that? >> well, jon, it is patently false that study comes from one of the studies that bloomberg pays for, he pays for these studies. it is not true, think about it. gun ownership has risen exponentially in recent years. in 20 years, highest level ever been, civilian gun ownership, however violent crime according to the fb it, violent crime decreased every year. gun murders are down 50% in the last 20 years. if it were true guns lead to more domestic murders we would see that in the statistics. that is patently false. that is false advertising to lure in women voters. i hope with even $50 million spent the women take time to research first. jon: you said you think actually

bloomberg could wind up helping republicans take the senate because of this effort. how do you explain that? >> yeah. i mean, look what the people he will be targeting in 2014. mary landrieu, mark pryor. the southern, western, democrats, who are progun, pro-second amendment, who wouldn't vote for president obama's gun control laws they tried to get through the senate last year. those are the people he is going to be targeting. by doing that he is helping republicans and "new york times" piece he wrote today which he said that if there is a god, that god already let him into heaven, that interview. he says he doesn't care who has control of senate. so he doesn't quite understand this concept that republican is pro-second amendment and if he continues to get them elected he has not going to get his gun control agenda through on national level. jon: emily miller, interesting. good talking to you. thank you. >> you too, jon, thanks. jenna: right now undercover officers in miami making a bust after watching five men for what appeared to be a police

raid. there was only one little problem. that these guys actually weren't police officers. arthel neville at breaking news desk with the latest. how does that work out, arthel? >> reporter: can you imagine how bizarre it was miami-dade police spotted five men inside a silver 2009 maxima. they were putting on police gear, strapping on weapons, pinning on badges with police insignias, the whole nine. the real cops working undercover at the time. the detectives quickly radioed dispatch to checkanother detail was working that location a few blocks away from florida's turnpike. now dispatch, they were called, nope, no other police were working undercover there. at that time, according to the police report, the fake cops popped red and blue lights on their car as the maxima pulled out of the park, shortly before happening four p.m. in the afternoon. so several police units surrounding that car. the five men were arrested. on charges ranging from carrying

concealed weapons to loitering and prowling and resisting arrest. here are pictures of the guys arrested were them. mir around today carrero. and damion rosello. their ages range from 23 to 38. a fifth man was also arrested. he is are 54-year-old and. res noja. they watched as they wanted over the maxima and got in and proceeded to get dressed. besides tactical gear police found two semiautomaticpy tolls and a replica of an air pistol as well. so it was, rather crazy i would say, jenna. jenna: they don't know exactly what they were growing to do? >> no. jenna: they were going somewhere? >> somewhere they weren't supposed to be going i'm sure. yeah, so luckily they got caught and all have been arrested. so there you go. jenna: we like the end of the story when it comes to that sort of conclusion. arthel, thank you. >> reporter: you're welcome.

jon: if you're going to the grocery store you will need a bigger wallet. food prices are soaring and grocers are now starting to pass those costs on to their customers. we're seeing price hikes on beef, pork, poultry, eggs. what is it all about? let's bring in cheryl casone from the fox business network. cheryl? >> i have to tell you and many viewers might want to think about becoming vegetarian after i showed what you is happening with beef and pork prices in particular. take a look at percentage jumps we've seen over the last year. first take a look at beef.

retail beef prices up 7%. retail pork prices up 5.3%. and then eggs, even eggs we're seeing big you jump at grocery store up 7.1%. we're up national average up $2 for a dozen eggs. that is actually pretty high. here is what is happening. we had a huge drought two years ago, particularly out west. that hurt the herds. there is lot less beef out there for processing. the pork prices go, that was because of a virus. we talked about that. if you're looking at what you're seeing before the grocery store. this is the last stop where the stores did not want to raise prices on consumers. they were trying to fight this. now we're seeing grocery store prices jumping. let me give you couple examples here. one shopper in california, went to a costco. she bought two steaks. $38 for two steaks at costco. that is the jump. this hurts the economy. restaurants are having to deal with this. many major restaurants are telling at fox business would not raise their prices. guess what? they will have to start raising

their prices. another little tactic the restaurants are using in particular with beef, smaller cuts of beef. you may notice that on your plate when you go to a restaurant in this country, or, they're using secondariry, not as popular cuts of beef. so a lot of changes happening here. in particular these families, jon, they're really getting hit at the grocery store with ground beef in particular. that is what a family of four lives on many times. i'm saying jon. maybe fish and veggie burgers for some of your viewers. jon: that will not be popular, those price increases. cheryl casone. thank you. jenna: first-of-its-kind initiative underway as several medical schools across the country to have medical schools treat alzheimer's pairing students with patients already suffering from the disease. garrett tenney live from chicago with the story. garrett? >> jenna, these medical schools are trying to get ahead of the growing problem. alzheimer's is the 6th leading cause of death in the u.s. and only among the top 10 without a pay to prevent it, to

cure it or even to slow it down. now doctors say with an aging baby boomer generation they expect to see a lot more of that in the future. >> i guess, right? >> reporter: jared worthington is in his first year of medical school at north when university. dan, is a doctor with a long successful career. >> gives me good things to remember. >> reporter: now though -- >> tough think of the name of the town. >> reporter: he is fighting early stages of alzheimer's disease. >> i see myself moving further along and i don't like that movement. and it is not further along in a way that is going to help me. >> reporter: but hopes it will help jared. windy city, right? this is part of northwestern's buddy program that gives future doctors a close look at always himmers. >> it is interesting way to know somebody with alzheimer's outside the clinic. >> reporter: the number of alzheimer's patients is expected to triple by 2050. the cost of care is expected to

jump from $14 billion this year to $1.2 trillion. for jared, not every lesson is contained in a book. seeking knowledge as dan looks to share before it's gone. >> teaching has been my life's dream and, just a little bought with always highers is not going to stop that. >> reporter: and with medicare and medicaid paying for nearly 70% of the cost for treating alzheimer's patient, economists say improved treatments are key to you are nation's financial health in the future. jenna? jenna: garrett tenney. thank you. jon: remember president obama saying al qaeda was on the run? well, not according to this video. it shows dozens of militants meeting completely out in the open, apparently even more emboldened than ever. we'll have a live report what this could mean for u.s. security. and can't remember the title of that movie you watched last week? you can't find where you left your car keys? you are not alone.

jenna: new information about why you keep misplacing car keys or cell phone. if you do that you are certainly not alone, i do it all the time. the average person misplaces up to nine items a day, according to one online survey. so why is that so easy to do and what can you actually do about it to find your items faster? dr. christopher winter is sleep medicine doctor and neurologist who can speak to this issue. "wall street journal" did a write-up on a bunch of difficult

studies on our minimumry lapses. you say it is not even our minimumry to blame. why is it easy to misplace car keys? >> it is easier to misplace thing when you get out of rhythm. we're talking about two different things. tough have a plan and a good memory where you put the keys and then the so there are two places in the system where the things can break down. jenna: is routine the only way to prevent that from happening? everyday life that gets in the way and gets into our heads literally keeps us from making a connection where we put certain things when we put them down in our house for example? >> routine is helpful. you have to have, about mindfulness. so what happens is, when people get stressed, or they get thrown curveballs during the day, at least get taken out of the routine, you start doing things almost automatically. people will drive to work and

have very little recollection of the different stops and things that they did on the way to work. almost like they drove automatically to their parking lot. and so when you start getting into an automatic behavior or when you're concentrating on the fact that your roof is leaking and not where your putting your wallet and your cellophane, that is when people -- cell phone and start to make a weak memory. when you try to remember where you put those things inshoes come up. i find it interesting when someone tries to recall something in a social situation, when they can't quite think of name of movie they went to see last night, people look at them funny and they become more self-conscious and anxious and that makes it more harder to collect the memory. when it dies down and you're watching television and your mind's off of what movie you watched is sort of suddenly pops in your head. >> right. where was that a few hours ago, when i could really use it.

it is interesting, doctor, always these important things. you need your car keys or your house keys or your wallet. you think because you're so important that you more or less know where they're at. is there a trick, anything that we can do when we're in the middle of the you know, trying to find our car keys, that we're up against a deadline or something like that, that will help us make the connection quicker? >> sure. i think that the important thing is to relax. and that is easier said than done sometimes, when you're late for a meeting and you can't find your car keys. number two, i think typically speaking, the car keys are usually going to be where you think they are and if not, they're going to be awfully close. so i often find i go look where my car keys should be. they're not there. i'm in a panic. one of my kids will walk up, here they are, they are right there next to something and it's amazing we look at a place but not really see it. jenna: that's true. >> i also think it is important too, that in terms of sort of relaxing and figuring out where

they are, retracing your steps can often be helpful. what did you do when you got up between then and when you left? oh, yeah, by the way i changed clothes at some point and there they are sitting next to my sweaters. i remember that now. jenna: always turns out that way. it is comforting to know that a neurologist also does forget things now and then, dr. winter. >> absolutely. jenna: we all do it and apparently, there is that. there is something we can do to make it a little easier. dr. winter, great to see you as always. thank you very much. >> good to see you too. jenna: that ever happen to you? jon: usually winston grabbed it and torn it apart. jenna: winston the dog, the mascot of "happening now." jon: that's right. a inspiring story made possible by a make a wish crew. this eight-year-old faced battles of his own. he is set to soar as his favorite superhero, "iron man"! the story after the break. @e@8
