always waunted. that didn't go over very well. then she started laughing. another issue is, not only is she pound by her earlier statements, she bound by the blood evidence it shows blood spatter on the chair and his pants, nowhere else. he was clearly shot sitting down. also she'll have to explain premeditation. that she went over that day, specifically to kill him. cell mates say she threw things around in poston's apartment so the neighbors would hear it and think they were having a fight. she says she was coming over to get bath items. dan, really she went all the way back over to to tl to get her shampoo? go to the dollar store. why go back over there? it was to kill him. >> the premeditation part i don't think is particularly strong. i think the best argue mment she's got her, manslaughter.

him and saying yes, jedi can marry because the qualities important to jedi are also important to a good marriage. if you can hear there, colin was very excited about this. saying yeah, i can get married. >> no way! >> thank goodness. now that we've worked that out. >> take it easy. a couple years. a couple years. >> whatever happened to the latency period? colin is ready to go. >> young jedi master. >> thank you, amy. >> "pop news" and weather coming up. but michael is in "the social square" right now. here's a look at what's ahead on the "gma morning menu." in the social square, powered by samsung galaxy. in "pop news" -- all the details on the ultimate "full house" reunion that's about to be everywhere you look. plus "dancing's" incredible spring break showdown. rumer willis heating up the ballroom and the judges. patti labelle heads home. and real-life superheroes. the astonishing moments bystanders broke into a car on

"heat index" coming up. let's go to rob for a check of the weather. >> all right. sorry. we're inside playing the bongos. you guys like playing the bongos? who doesn't? all right. let's go to where they do that. miami, where that song originated from, right? temperatures in the 70s. cloudy. you'll see storms. thank you, wplg for that shot. 84 will be the high temperature. i tell you what, you can use the rain. it will be kind of a wet day across south florida. you're below average. the cooling trend on for the northeastern third of the country, 50s today, 40s in some spots. 60s in boston. after a wet day yesterday. storms across parts of texas.

visual field. you may have trouble recognizing someone's face. glaucoma, a pressure buildup, which compresses the nerves that feed the eye, causes us to lose vision from the outside in. >> do they always go together? >> no, they don't. a one-two punch. a really, really unfortunate diagnosis. >> can you treat it? >> well, that's the good news. i just got off the phone the last hour with the chief of wills eye hospital in philadelphia. the treatment for both more exciting than ever. according to her. there's new drugs. new medication that can be injected into the eye in some cases. they're using stem cell therapy. and new surgery, telescopic implants which can help restore some form of vision. so again, it's an exciting time. the key is early diagnosis. >> how about preventing it? in the first place. >> the things that are good for the brain and the heart also good for the eye. if you smoke, stop, and don't start. that's the most important thing for eye health. if you have high blood pressure, control it. for the average person without a

family history of any eye disease, you want to get a dilated eye exam yearly. starting around age 50. and earlier if you have a family history. >> thank you, jen. you'll take questions online? >> yes. next up on the heat index, spring break night on "dancing with the stars." a big old beach party. the final bash for patti labelle and her partner, artem. melissa rycroft caught up with them backstage after the show. ♪ >> reporter: the ballroom was hot, hot, hot, with spring break fever. ♪ rocker riker lynch's striking samba leaping into first place. but the dance floor not without drama. ♪ body so bootylicious ♪ >> it's a ballroom, not a bedroom. >> oh. >> obviously, it is spring break. but, i actually agree with the judges as well. i have a very high expectation of myself. and, doing these kind of dances is very different from the ballroom thing. >> i'm sorry, bruce. >> reporter: and the spring

vacation was cut short for one couple. >> for the past six weeks, it's been an incredible journey. i had so much fun. >> i have done so much i didn't think i would do. i'm so happy. i am. i'm proud of patti. >> reporter: she was the belle of the ball from the start. patti labelle receiving a standing ovation for her lady marmalade fox-trot on week one. >> they love ya. >> reporter: and keeping her cool during this one-shoe quick step. you're known for kicking off your shoes, right? >> of course i am. >> reporter: now tell me what happened. was that on purpose? >> no. it was designed for me to kick both shoes off. >> reporter: it was? >> oh, yeah. one got stuck. >> reporter: the grammy-award winning singer dancing through the pain of a knee injury all season. what do you think helped propel you to push through it? >> because i have this great spirit. and even if i'm hurting inside, i'm going to get through it, because i can. >> reporter: for "good morning america," melissa rycroft, abc news, los angeles. >> she went out with a smile. >> she did.

she did a great job. and we were saying that rumer -- >> it didn't look any more provocative than any other dance i have seen. >> every other dance. >> and her outfit was tasteful. i don't get it. >> maybe went a little too far. >> maybe bruno was feeling shy last night. >> you can see all the action on "dancing with the stars," monday night at 8:00. eastern, 7:00 central, right here on abc. so we have been talking about this all morning long. michael is a big proponent of this. next on "the heat index," the ultimate post workout plan. it's a story we first saw in "the new york times." one that michael has apparently known about his whole life. it's about how one of your favorite childhood treats could be the key to refueling. we have a full-on boot camp going on. dr. jen ashton has more to yahoo! your day. ♪ yahoo! ♪ >> reporter: this rowing team has a secret. when the cornell university team finishes a brutal training session, they're not picking up

a protein shake or banana. their choice? chocolate milk. >> helps us recover. when we're training up to 20 hours a week. >> low-fat chocolate mill sk really the gold standard. it's got all the nutrients that the body burns through in training. >> reporter: clint, cornell's coordinator for sports nutrition came up with the idea when he saw athletes undereating during the day, training hard, and overeating at night. >> getting good nutrition around training is critical. the recovery window starts within 30 minutes of training. it continues for 24 to 48 hours. the body needs nutrients throughout the day to repair optimally. >> reporter: here's why some say chocolate milk is a great recovery aid for certain people. research shows the protein from the milk rebuilds muscle. the water rehydrates. the sugar and carbs replaces glycogen. that was burned as energy. plus, young athletes like the taste. is it good for all of us? we asked michelle from yahoo! health. >> chocolate milk is a great recovery drink if you're an endurance athlete working out

intensely for an hour. if you're the average person working out for 30 to 45 minutes, you're probably okay with just some water and healthy meals. >> so i know michael strahan believed in it. but it was surprising to us. we want to ask our workout crew. what do you guys do after a workout? >> i have a banana and water. >> all right. >> i'm addison, i have a protein shake. >> and it's working. it's working. >> one water. one protein shake. >> i'm cecile. i do coconut water and a meal. >> i'm a coconut water person, too. were you surprised about the chocolate milk idea? >> yes and no. >> let me show you a demonstration. in the sports world, athletes have been doing this for a couple of years. it's just now becoming main stream. the key with chocolate milk is not just the hydration, it's what else your body needs. imagine this is your sports drink or regular water. the filter is your body. you drink it. and as you can see, it just goes right through. very good at hydration, which is important. if you consider chocolate milk.

mine would be darker. you pour it in. the sponge is your muscle. watch what happens to the sponge. >> and i asked dr. jen, why chocolate? what about the sugar in chocolate? >> a lot of the chocolate milk secret has to do with the fact that it tastes good. the palatibility. you're more likely to actually drink it. but look what's happening to the muscle. this is the glycogen storage getting repleted. with the combination of the sugar, the carbs, and the protein. and you need that. >> right. >> don't worry about the calories. what should we tell people? >> listen, sugar is not all bad and all good. your body needs sugar when you're working out. this is not just for the elite athlete. if you want to feel good with your workouts, you should start treating yourself as an elite athlete. a couple of tips. the power hour. get this in in the first 30 minutes, ideally within the first hour. eight ounces. not more. low-fat chocolate milk. and if you're lactose

intolerant pb & j on whole wheat. >> pb and j on whole wheat. there you go. i'm so excited. we gotta get over to amy. and jesse palmer is back with us now. and this week, he's been bringing us stories about real-life superheroes. as we count down to friday's big "avengers" cast event. it's about ordinary people who pull off extraordinary feats. this morning, not one but two amazing people who pulled off a superhuman rescue. >> thank you, amy. what could have been a devastating tragedy for a family near rochester, new york, had a happy ending thanks to two fearless superheroes acting faster than speeding bullets to save the day. no one should have survived this crash on november 23, 2013. terri was driving home from a birthday party with all four of her children. marianna twins maddox and dante, and the baby adelai just 6 months old. then, the unthinkable. >> as i was turning, the other

guy ran the light and hit us. >> the impact was so hard. the vehicle was immediately on fire. >> reporter: in the car behind terri was off-duty police officer and mother of two, christine wilson. >> i heard babies, babies, i just reacted to it. >> reporter: also nearby, frank destefano, a father of two, was headed out for work as a snowplow operator. both sprang into action. christine is the first to reach the car. >> i grabbed the first child. helped her unbuckle. >> reporter: christine gets marianna, baby adelai, and maddox you can buckled and to safety. but she's struggling to get dante out of his car seat. >> the smoke started getting thick. it was heavy. it was dark. i couldn't see nothing. everyone was saying, it's about to explode. i didn't hear none of that. i guess i just went into tunnel vision. >> reporter: the heat and smoke was too much. >> i knew i had that last child in the car. and i just didn't want to leave him. and i'm just yelling and

screaming for somebody to help me. i didn't get the last child out the car. >> reporter: frank rushes to the burning car, knowing his only option is to somehow break the safety glass off the back windshield. >> i just, with my elbow, i took a shot at the window as hard as i could. for some odd reason, the whole window just blew apart. my adrenaline was pumping so hard. i probably could have ripped the back door right off if i had to. >> reporter: using sheer strength and adrenaline, frank gets dante out. >> i just jumped through the window. i reached over. grabbed the harness on the child seat. >> reporter: amazingly terri and her children walked away from the crash with little more than a bruise. today, they have a chance to say thank you to their real-life heroes. >> thank you. >> yeah, you're welcome. >> wow. both of these people are so brave. and when you think of how frank broke that back windshield with just his elbow. recently, the story of chris

masters, the wwe wrestlers, who lifted a tree out of the ground to safe his mom from a burning apartment. scientists who have studied this say under stress, the body can create a chemical reaction that may boost energy levels and actually motivate us to get close to our absolute power level. it's an unbelievable story. get ready for big screen superheroes coming your way. the entire cast of "the avengers: age of ultron" will be live right here in times square this friday morning. it's going to be exciting stuff. >> jesse, thank you so much for that. it was an incredible story. >> the human spirit. an amazing thing. >> thank you. >> you got it.

123w4r. >> good morning, i'm kristen sze. >> redwood city police are investigating an attempted kidnapping. a woman was taking things out of her car when someone grabbed her. she yelled and fought off her attacker. the suspect took off in a dark-colored vehicle driven by another person. anyone with information is asked to call redwood city police right away. your morning commute going smoothly, except in some troubled spots. >> this is 87 past julian street. take a look at the cars. they are not moving very much. are they? stop and go if you are heading into concord. this drive is pretty ruined because of an earlier sig alert
