every ticket of accommodation with taking 10,000 days 28 years ended a lot of money the lot. good morning to our viewers in the west. it is friday, march 30th, 2012. welcome to studio 57 at the cbs broadcast center. i'm charlie rose. it is the biggest lottery in u.s. history. the megamillions jackpot is now a record $540 million. president obama takes on big oil as gas prices continue to soar. we'll get reaction from the president of shell oil. i'm gayle king. there are new twists in the trayvon martin case. the shooter's brother speaks out in his defense. when i see you at 8:00, we'll revisit the question that caused a big old stink 19 years ago. i'm erica hill.

there are new details this morning about the hero co-pilot who took control of jetblue flight 191 and we'll hear from reba mcintyre and blake shelton as they prepare for this weekend's big academy of country music awards. >> we begin with today's eye opener. your world in 90 seconds. >> 500 million. just half billion. that's crazy. >> megamillions mania sweeps the nation. >> record jackpot could climb to $600 million. >> like me, you got lotto fever. i actually have lotto rash. >> nobody just said there was a bag of skittles and iced tea. you return force with force when someone assaults you. >> the family of the trayvon martin shooter jumps to his defense. >> robert zimmerman said his brother had to shoot the teenager who was unarmed. >> he prevented his firearm from being taken from him. >> the jetblue co-pilot's quick

thinking averted a disaster in the area when the captain started acting erratically. >> usually when you see a pilot acting that bad, it's on nbc. >> a judge today ended the actress's supervised probation. >> been in jail six times and made 19 court appearances. i think that qualifies her to be a judge. >> we came across video today we have never seen before. a tornado on the sun. >> motorcyclist has a near death experience. it's like a scene from the movie "fast and furious." >> all that -- >> he went between the legs! >> and all that matters. >> you are throwing your support to -- >> mitt romney. >> duh. winning. >> don't do that anymore. >> on "cbs this morning." >> queen's bohemian rhapsody while riding in the back of a

police cruiser. ♪ welcome to "cbs this morning." this store just outside los angeles is one of many across the nation where people are lining up today dreaming of megamillions. the biggest lottery jackpot in american history is up for grabs. an estimated $540 million. >> tickets are being sold in 42 states along with washington, d.c. and the virgin islands. here in new york state lottery agents were selling 1.3 million megamillion tickets per hour on thursday. the drawing is at 8:00 pacific time tonight. if there's only one winner, that person could choose the lump sum payment which works out to about $390 million. of course there are no guarantees in any of this.

rebecca jarvis is here with big business behind the big jackpot. good morning. >> there may not be -- i don't even have a ticket yet. i'm going out later. there may not be any guarantees here but that's not stopping anyone from playing, erica. good morning. they expect to sell about 1.2 billion tickets total before the drawing tonight. one lottery official told us the chance there will be a winner tonight is 90%. but if things go as they historically have in megalotteries like this one, we may not know who it is for a while. >> shock. i was jumping all over the place. >> it was a cinderella story. a single mom from jamaica who had been homeless and bankrupt won a $54 million jackpot in 2010. >> shock. shock. shock. shock. because as i said the day i went to play the lottery, i asked for powerball but i was pointed on megamillion. i thought it was all a dream. >> it's a dream many americans

pay big money for. >> americans spend about $60 approximately on the lottery every year. that's about that's more than $500 per american household goes to playing the lottery. the return on that as an investment is horrible. >> people mostly lose. >> it's horrible as a gambling outcome. >> say you took that same $500 and invested it in an index fund each year for 20 years. you would end up with $24,000. contrast to $22 million bulk payment. if you win today's megamillions you'll take $20.6 million a year. >> the idea that for a dollar i can win $20 million, that's what you would call a highly skewed outcome. it's very unlikely but if it happens, wow. it changes your life. >> the odds of winning are nearly 176 million to 1 meaning you would have to buy 176

million tickets to get every possible combination and be guaranteed a win. we tracked down two math matitions to see if we could better those odds. they say your best bet is to make sure that if you win, you don't have to share. >> you would do well to get numbers that most people think look unlucky because those are the ones few people will pick. >> there are things you should avoid and because many people don't avoid them so there are people that will choose numbers based on the pattern they make on the sheet where you fill in numbers. it's a bad idea to put money in those. if the math matition would by a ticket, what number would he get? >> best strategy is not to buy the lottery ticket. >> like many americans, they are not taking their advice. you have bought tickets. >> i did. >> how many did you buy? >> i'm embarrassed to say.

i bought $25 worth. >> i didn't think 25 was that embarrassing considering some people are buying 500. >> maybe she feels that way because she already won $54 million. if it works, go with it. they also say to pick numbers no one else picks. >> a lot of people choose numbers based on birthdays and years. they say any number above 31 are statistically less likely to be selected by larger groups of people. if you choose them, you might not get the jackpot or you might but fewer people are going to choose them along with you so a smaller prize could go to you and you won't have to share it. >> now i know the answer to the question how do you know which numbers are that people don't pick. >> exactly. numbers above 31 of less likely to be chosen. >> do people that win generally buy lots of tickets or one? >> it's all over the map. it doesn't necessarily -- even if you buy more tickets in one

lottery you could be more likely to win assuming you're not all picking the same number on those tickets. at the same time a lot of these lottery winners go bankrupt. nine out of ten lottery winners go bankrupt within first five years of winning the lottery and the reason is you get all this publicity. you come out. all these people come out of the woodwork. people come out of the woodwork. they are looking for money. everybody wants a handout. you try to be generous but it's hard. >> what percentage go bankrupt? >> nine out of ten. 90%. >> unbelievable. first thing do you if you win this thing is hire a lawyer. hire a lawyer and financial adviser. >> get ducks in a row before you go out there and piublicly accet the money. we're happy to help. turn to the latest on george zimmerman, the man who shot trayvon martin. this morning zimmerman's brother is going public to defend him.

ma mark, good morning. >> good morning, erica. over the last few days george zimmerman's family and friends have began to give his side of the story. that the crime watch volunteer killed the unarmed teenager because he had to and not because he has a temper problem. in 2005, george zimmerman was fired from his job as a party security guard for being too aggressive. a former co-worker said usually he was a cool guy but it was like jekyll and hyde. when the guy snapped, he snapped. >> he prevented his firearm from being taken from him and being used against him. that's called saving your life. >> robert zimmerman, jr., stuck up for his younger brother to piers morgan last night. he said he shot martin after he was attacked last month. >> george was out of breath. he was barely conscious.

his last thing he remembers doing was moving his head from the concrete to the grass so that if he was banged one more time he wouldn't be wearing diapers for the rest of his life and being spoon-fed by his brother. >> critics including trayvon martin's parents say the police tape is proof that zimmerman is a liar. this is how zimmerman looked 40 minutes after killing martin. he had no obvious face or head injuries. >> does he have injuries now? >> his nose is still broken. yeah. i don't know about the back of his head. it's still healing. it's not healed. >> martin was buried in miami. the funeral director who prepared his body was richard kurtz. >> we could see no physical signs like there was a fight. >> no marks on his hands from all of the punches zimmerman claims battered him. a special prosecutor is reviewing the evidence to decide

whether or not zimmerman can legitimately claimed he killed to save his own life. george zimmerman remains a deeply divisive figure in this country. there will be a rally in sanford tomorrow and miami on sunday. charlie? erica? >> thanks. this is an election year and soari ining gas prices have dri looking someone to blame. the white house is looking to score political points for president. >> on thursday senate republicans shot down the president's plan to cutoff oil company tax breaks. bill plante has that story this morning. >> reporter: good morning, erica and to our viewers in the west. the president says there's not much he can do to control gas prices. nonetheless, he's working hard to appear to be trying. on thursday he came to the rose garden to urge the senate to repeal $4 billion in in tax subsidies for big oil even

though no one thinks that would actually lower prices at the pump. >> they can either vote to spend billions of dollars more in oil subsidies that keep us trapped in the past or they can vote to end these taxpayer subsidies that aren't needed to boost oil production. >> reporter: moments after the president's plea -- >> the motion is not agreed to. >> reporter: the senate voted 51-47 against the bill with four democrats in the majority. >> somehow they thought doing this would set up some kind of political win for them. i can't imagine anyone giving them high fives for not lowering gas prices. >> reporter: the national average price for regular gas is 3.93 a gallon up 33 cents from a year ago. recent polls show the pain at the ump is very much on the minds of voters. 77% said that gas prices had put at least a moderate amount of strain on their family budgets. 68% disapprove of how the president is responding to gas prices though majority also say

that the oil companies share a great deal of the blame. all this has raised concern in the white house. the president last week spent two days on the road showcasing his willingness to tap all possible energy sources including solar, domestic drilling and speeding up construction of the southern portion of the keystone pipeline and this week the interior department announced it would begin studying possible drilling sites off the atlantic coast. but for all this, the white house remains on the defensive. >> there's no silver bullet or magic wand that allows you to reduce the price at the pump. >> reporter: and here's something else they may be thinking about in the oval office, when gas prices go up in an election year it's bad news for the man in the white house. up in 1980, '92, 2000, huge jump in 2008, and incumbent or his party lost in every case. that may just be a coincidence but gas prices are forecasted to continue rising this spring into

summer. they are already over $4 a gallon in a lot of places. charlie? erica? >> thank you. with us now is marvin odom, president of shell oil. one of five companies that would have been affected if subsidies had been cut. good morning. >> good morning, charlie. >> tell me whether you need these subsidies when you look at the financial profits of the major oil companies. >> there's probably a piece of data that would be helpful. if you look at the profits of the oil companies, you have to consider the size of these companies. if you look at the unit profitability if you will, how much we make on a unit or dollar of revenue, it's actually lower than the average manufacturing across this country. so i think while i don't mind the attention on energy because i think energy is an important topic, i think the discussion around taxes and taking tax breaks away is the wrong discussion. >> i want to come to what the right discussion might be in a moment. other ceos of oil companies have

said that they would give up these subsidies if they were applied across the business fronti frontier. is that your position? >> it is. i think what we can do and should do in this country is take a very broad look at tax reform and the thing that's important to us as a business and as people competing within an industry is a level laying field. that's the discussion we would like to have on the tax front. on the energy side, what we would like to talk about is what can we do to help this country and that's becoming more efficient and producing more of our own resources. >> let's take a snapshot of where the oil situation is today and how it will affect prices at the pump. what is the supply/demand situation and if in fact oil is going up per barrel, the price per barrel, what is the direct relationship between that and the price at the pump and can anything be done about that in the present environment? >> you have identified the relationship and it is direct. the price of oil goes directly into the price of gas. it's the number one factor that

determines the price that people pay every day at the pump. so back to the price of oil worldwide, it is a global system. we have to think about supply and demand on a global basis. the way that we can address that is to cut back and produce as many resources as we can in this country and economic benefits of that are or jobs in this country that are trade balanced in this country. more security supply of oil. and that's the biggest impact that we can have. there is no -- you hear -- there is no immediate fix for the price of oil today. >> but at the same time we are looking at the future in which united states will be producing more energy resources than it has ever in its past, correct? >> i think that's where you should look at this as an opportunity for the country. we have a tremendous number of resources in this country with the natural gas that we found across the nation with new oil resources that are being found. we're talking about drilling offshore alaska. we can have an enormous impact

on our own energy system. >> at the same time we're looking at a crisis for the united states in terms of our energy situation. we're looking at possible international damage from whatever iran might happen. it would seem to me that there ought to be some kind of dialogue between the president and oil companies to say what can we do in the nation's interest to lower the price of gas at the pump. >> well, i'm fine with that. we want that kind of discussion and cooperation between the government and industry but the thing we have to keep in mind is energy is a long-term business. to change this massive system of energy supply takes time. so to sit down and have some strategic thinking about where we want this to go in the future given the population in the world is growing like crazy. we have to address that now. >> this bill that president is sponsoring did not pass in the senate. wouldn't it be a good faith

gesture to say we don't need the subsidies right now and get together with congress for energy benefit of americans and on the part of the united states. >> let me give you a different twist on that story. if we really want more dollars flowing into the federal government to help with the deficit and so forth, if we want more income taxes flowing in, the way to do that is to produce more energy in this country. so the question that the congress and the president ought to be asking themselves is how do we ensentive? the tax deductions we talk about pale in comparison to the money that would come -- >> a dollar is a dollar. tell me how much subsidies contribute to your bottom line at shell oil? >> well, first of all, we don't see these as subsidies. >> you can make an accounting valuation of how much they meant to you.

>> i don't have a number for you, charlie, in terms of exactly how much in a gallon of gas the deductions that we take would be. it's important to understand these are the same deductions manufacturing cost type deductions taking across all industries and not just oil and gas industry. >> we need tax reform is your point. >> we ought to look at that under a broad sense. >> thank you so much. >> thank you, charlie. >> time to show you some of the morning's headlines from around the globe.

people now and would happen if in fact the republicans were able to repeal it? >> bob schieffer is with us from washington. good morning. two points at the beginning of this. number one, as the vice president said, you have been in washington a lot of years. it's good to see "face the nation" go to one hour now and have an opportunity to get into this political race that we're looking at. the vice president, you have known him a lot of years since he came to the senate when he was 29 years old. what kind of vice president has he been and how valuable and how well do the president and vice president get along? >> i think he's been a very good vice president.

>> didn't last very long as they said. i think that he's been someone who has been totally loyal to this president. i think he's --

people, republican party -- when you see joe biden out there on "face the nation" and other places making speeches now. that tells you they concluded it will be romney and the general election is already under way. they will wait for details later on the republican nomination but they think it's going to be romney and they have it under way. >> two issues that will be at the center of this presidential campaign. one is health care. i'll take that. erica can talk about gas prices. health care. if it is declared either in part or totally unconstitutional, what impact, the question you ask joe biden? >> well biden absolutely will not speculate. he's been around in washington a long time. he won't speculate.

>> you will. >> what the court is going to do. >> it will have a huge impact both politically and economically. if you talk to democrats, they tell you that if this thing is thrown out, it's going to add billions of dollars to the deficit. republicans will tell you just the opposite. and both have their talking points. i think what biden was saying yesterday is that when push comes to shove, democrats think this is a good thing. they think it's the fairest way to treat people and republicans no matter what happens they are going to try to take grandma's

medicare away from her. whether the court lets this stand or doesn't. i just don't see any way that this is not going to play in the election and coming in june it will be what we will all be talking about. >> coming just before the convention. bob, we need to ask you about the administration's take and focus on gas prices. the president throwing his support out there yesterday to repeal the subsidies which didn't ultimately work in the senate. how much of a focus is there in terms of a campaign strategy when it comes to gas prices? how much concern? >> well, republicans are going to keep hammering this just like barack obama hammered george bush in 2008 talking about how much prices -- the people that are running for president always blame the person who, the incumbent president for the rise in gas prices. democrats make the point there's not that much a president can do about it. it has to do with china and enormous appetite it has for oil

now and it has to do with turmoil in the middle east and it has to do with speculators. that's the argument of those who say there's not much the president can do about it. but that's not going to stop the candidates from saying they ought to do something about it. gas prices have an enormous impact. much more so than any numbers you hear about deficits and all of that kind of thing. when people go to the gas pump, they see the price of gas staring them at eye level right there on the gas gauge. ain had a meltdown. john miller has more on his story. and on monday we'll have a visit from oprah winfrey. can't wait for that. you're watching "cbs this morning." ♪ daisy, do a dollop

hopes that it may some day be used to help people control their weight. until about three years ago, it was thought only babies had brown fat. because they don't shiver like adults, they use it to keep warm. then scientists discovered that adult have it, too. in small amounts in the upper back, on the side of the neck, in the dip between the collarbone and shoulder, and along the spine. now in one new study, six men were cooled down for three hours but not long enough to make them shiver and they burned an extra 250 calories. other data show that when mice enter size they release a hormone that turns white fat cells into fat-burning brown ones. it may explain why exercise burns more calories than you might expect. it's too soon to recommend that you chill yourself to a slimmer waist, but it does seem as if brown fat is a fat we can learn to love. i'm dr. holly phillips. >> announcer: "cbs healthwatch"

income comes to be disposed. inside you'll find an upscale flea market, a shopping mall where prices start at the thousands and end in the stratosphere. there's very little sense of an aesthetic experience, not silence or the hush of a gallery or museum. what you hear or imagine you hear is the cac aphony of cash. art, so much merchandise without a price tag in sight. >> morley safer is here. welcome. >> good to be here. >> as much as things change, they stay the same. the last time you did that controversial report you had a conversation with me about it. >> indeed. and you say the more it changes, the more it stays the same. it doesn't quite, the prices have gone up 1,000 percent. >> that's my question. has contemporary art gotten more

popular or is it essentially it's more in demand? >> essentially what happened is there are more billionaires on the scene. they were customers who just weren't there 20 years ago. now you have china, malaysia, india, russia -- seriously russia. and these new billionaires come in. when billionaires have bought all the toys they can possibly ever want, they go to art. why art? art gives you status. art introduces you to a social environment that you otherwise would not have access to. all of those wonderful things. you are seen as a patron of the arts, modern kind of -- >> have you developed an appreciation for contemporary art? >> that is the answer. >> look, on these very broadcasts, i guess in this very

chair om a few days ago jerry salz conservatively estimated 85% of it was rubbish. he used a stronger word. i think he was being conservative. i think it's more like 95%. >> let's go back for just a second, morley, back to 1993. at the time when you did that piece, did you have any idea that you would hurt their feelings or they would be a little irritated with you or did you care? >> the last. i didn't care. >> you didn't care? >> no. look, i have great understanding, great sympathy, and great affection for an artist wanting to do their thing. >> yeah. >> what i don't have is an understanding of how the gatekeepers of contemporary art can let them get away with such rubbish.

and i think one of the other problems, and we address it very briefly in this piece, is the so-called art speak, the language of contemporary art as expressed by many, many critics. particularly by curators. i think when you go to get your master of fine arts degree, the more incomprehensible your doctoral paper is, the better grade you get. it's a language all its own that i don't think even the people who are using it understand. >> so you think they are simply subordinating their judgment about art to their desire to make a lot of money. >> the curators, critics, and artists? >> yes. >> in the case of critics and curators not that much money. the artist, of course.

what i find so tedious about the whole business is that most of the contemporary art that you see, that people tend to rave about in this inconch hence i believe language it's derivative, kitschy, sentimental bad taste, lacks any irony. when you think that in 1917, was it, that marcel put his urinal up on the wall and called it art, it was a wonderful, glorious practical joke on the art world. people are still doing it. the joke is kind of over. >> when you decided to be here and we were to have you, we were talking about you coming here, morley safer.

we were very excited. were you as excited as we were? yes or no. don't hurt our f

died or were put down as a result of racing and training injuries. mostly broken legs. it's the dark side of racing that came under the spotlight again two weeks ago when hbo canceled its horse racing drama "luck" filmed at santa anita after the loss of a third horse in a production accident. >> the people here, when something goes down, a horse goes down, it's something like you haven't seen. >> reporter: they're devastated. >> devastated. >> reporter: much of the debate of horse safety is on track surface. dirt, mix of sand and soil, or synthetic, blend of sand, artificial fiber and wax as a binding agent. a study of horse deaths over five racing seasons in california revealed there were 37% fewer fatalities on synthetic surfaces. that's also been the trend on the synthetic track at keeneland in tennessee, but track

veterinarian donald shield says those statistics can be misleading. >> there's actually more injuries during training on synthetics than on dirt. >> reporter: you can't count just racing. >> that's my point. you can't just talk about rac g racing. >> reporter: some trainers and jockeys say a synthetic surface is harder in cool morning air, causing injuries to horses in training. jo joy scott insists dirt is absolutely better for horse and rider. >> there's less impact, less concussion. i know that. if you fall on it, you can really tell a difference, but you can actually feel the difference on the horse when the horse hits the ground, how much concussion there is. >> reporter: nevertheless, in 2006 the california horse racing board ordered the state's major track to convert to synthetic and santa anita spent $11 million to do it. but the drainage was bad. rocks floated up. and racing days were lost. after a near revolt by trainers and riders, santa anita won permission to go back to dirt.

jason spetnagel oversees maintenance. >> this surface goes through extensive testing almost on a daily basis. the maintenance that goes into taking care of this track is almost a 24/7 operation. >> reporter: it's done for the safety of the horses, but so far the death rate at santa anita has nearly doubled on the dirt. now just under four for every 1,000 racing starts. >> it's definitely the low of the low of the game, but it's part of it. >> reporter: but you don't stop playing because of it. >> one fatality is way too many. >> reporter: these horses, they say, are born to run. that's what they do. they let horses run. for "cbs this morning," brian rooney, los angeles. >> such a majestic animal. you hope they get to the bottom of it. you see them running, they're so beautiful -- i like what he said, one death is too many. >> so true. and they are majestic, beautiful
