believes tel aviv will launch a strike in april, may or june targeting the nuclear weapons facility according to the washington post. panetta has refused to comment on the report. blizzard warnings are in effect in colorado, kansas and nebraska as a major winter storm threatens to dump two feet of snow. denver public schools are closed and hundreds of flights have been cancelled. severe thunderstorms are threatening parts of texas, louisiana and oklahoma. the head of the susan g. komen for the cure foundation is defending her decision to cut funding to planned parenthood even as top komen officials are resigning in protest. this as criticism mounts against the cancer charity and supporters rally around the reproductive health organization. the latest supporter is new york city mayor michael bloomberg. he's pledging to donate $250,000 to planned parenthood out of his own pocket to make up for the funding lost in the cuts. bloomberg said politics have no place in health care.

republican presidential candidate mitt romney is boasting a high profile endorsement headed into the nevada caucuses. he won the backing thursday of tea party favorite donald trump. meantime newt gingrich touring a las vegas plant said poor americans need a trampoline so they can spring up. that was a jab at romney who said this week the very poor have a safety net. romney now says he misspoke. what better way to beat the winter blues than maybe with a new hair style? a 50-year-old man in taiwan had hello kitty cheered into his head to cheer up his winter weary dad. he says the next time he'll consider a different character, perhaps spongebob. now i see it. four minutes past the hour. now out to al in indianapolis with a check of the weather. you never have to worry about that, al. >> not me.

into the mississippi river valley. could be two to three inches even locally, four to five. >> good morning. it will be another nice day today. a bit cooler than the last couple days but still above average. and that's your latest weather. of course if the action on the field isn't enough to keep your attention sunday you know the commercials will. here with more with the ads we'll be talking about monday morning is matt miller, president and ceo of the association of independent commercial producers. this crop of commercials, how do

you think they will rate with the classics in the past? >> i think it's high. the advertisers brought their game this year so to speak because of the online life it has before and after. they are counting on not just the viewers then but actually people using their own social networks and getting it out there. >> so they go viral. e-trade is back. let's cue the babies. >> i look at her and i want to give her everything. >> you know, everything can cost upwards of -- [ whistles ] >> i didn't want to think about that. >> relax. three words, dad. e-trade financial consultants. >> i can just talk to them. >> walk right in and talk to them. they're pros. they hook you up with a solid plan. wait a minute. bobby? what are you doing, man? >> i'm speed dating. >> invest with e-trade. >> why do we still love the

up like good soldiers. get it is job done. the sunny master bedroom has gleaming hard wood floors, crown molding and oversized windows. not a bad house. >> looks good to me. >> if you're looking for a ski home perhaps and you want a little bit of the history look no further than historic manchester, vermont. i hear this house includes three acres with a brook and a swimming hole. sounds like you have a summer property. >> you have yourself a retreat. you don't have to just ski there. it's got three great mountains within 20 minutes. it's a great place to retire to. the house has everything. it looks small on the outside. you'd think it was an 800-square-foot place. it's 3,000 square feet big. it comes with three acres. i love the cathedral ceilings with the beams, the white plank cherry wood floors and the brick fireplace. the dining room has tiled

floors, french doors to the deck and you can see a 63 airstream if you look through the window retro-fitted as a vi gar and wine bar. >> really? >> the open kitchen has tin tiles and windows over the sink. there is a log cabin on the property. that's a big plus you don't get. a wrap around deck. outside you have the beautiful brook running through the grounds. own your own brook which is a great thing to sleep to. >> four bedrooms and two baths. lots of room for guests. next is a beautiful southern charmer in charlotte, north carolina. actually won an award from the american institute of architects. >> it deserves it. you will see the style of the house. do you know the average temperature -- oh, we're in miami here. >> are we? >> yes, miami, florida. >> that's all right. we'll catch up. the average temperature in miami is a balmy 82 degrees.

this is a ranch style home on a lush corner lot on a quiet street. i think somebody should have swept the sidewalk. i don't get it when people don't think of that before taking the shot. the interior is hollywood glamorous with cathedral ceilings, polished wall floors and modern lights. there are painted built in bookshelves. i'm not a lover of gray walls but it works there. looks delicious. the family room is large enough to double as a guest room. it has french doors, an eat-in kitchen with granite counters, a tiled back splash and sharp white cabinets. and the den almost looks like an extension of the kitchen. a neat day bed tucked away with storage. great for a guest. there is a patio out back with a pool of it own. your own waterfall surrounded by tall hedges so you can go skinny

dipping whenever you want. >> you and the skinny dipping, barbara. >> i see myself there. >> okay. so do we. next, charlotte, north carolina, here we go. as i was mentioning, this is the house that won the american institute of architects award. >> it was built in 1954. this is mid century modern. it's a great example of it. the tree out front and the peaceful entryway steals the show. it's the koichkt hill. the dark color of the sunken living room works because of the bright walls. floor to ceiling windows. whatever you want to call them. plate glass windows. the open dining room is flooded with sun. doesn't look comfortable. i can't imagine anybody sitting there and enjoying themselves. i like the sleek cabinets and dark counters and three windows over the sink. outdoors is a koi pond. remember, $375,000.
