health care reform becomes law today as president obama signs the historic bill passed by congress. but republican opponents are just getting started vowing to fight in the senate, in the states and in the court. the tale of michael jackson's death takes an explosive new turn. the man who called 911 claims jackson's doctor stopped cpr to hide damaging evidence. we'll have the disturbing life and death details. the story behind this terrifying tape. a truck driver oblivious that something was wrong and a helpless woman inside the car pushed at 60 miles an hour. this morning we'll hear from her. and harry takes center stage on the "late show." and shines in the spotlight announcing the top ten things

that went through his mind during his televised colonoscopy. >> number nine -- >> good mor"good morning ameri." more of harry's top ten list early this tuesday morning, more of harry's top ten list early this tuesday morning, march 23rd, 2010. captioning funded by cbs from the late show oig to "the early show," good morning, everybody. i'm maggie rodriguez. and you all know him. >> try to get on as many broadcasts as possible. >> how was it? >> really fun. they could not have been nicer and the jokes were really, really funny. >> we'll play them in case you missed it a little bit later this morning. we'll get right to the news. president obama set to seen historic health care legislation into law today at a white house celebration. and on capitol hill, as the senate begins deat a tibate on fixes, opponents say it's not

over yet. nancy cordes has the latest. >> reporter: that's right. even as the president signs this bill into law in the east room of the white house today, debate will be getting you saunder way pretty major set of changes to the bill. those changes passed the house on sunday night. republicans say they just make reform more expensive. >> they want to add more deals on top of the other ones. well, i have a message for our democratic friends. enough is enough. >> reporter: there are several major changes democrats are trying to make to the larger bill through the process known as reconciliation. those changes include expanding medicaid, delaying a tax on high cost insurance plans until 2018, and boosting penalties for medium and large companies that don't offer health insurance. the bill hasn't even become law and already attorneys general from a dozen states are threat

anything to sue, arguing that the federal insurance mandate violates state sovereignty. >> nowhere in the constitution does it say that the congress can require somebody to buy health insurance. contra >> reporter: congressional republicans have mounted a campaign to repeal the bill, but that would require a republican president and gop majorities in the house and senate. after he signs the bill, the president plans to go back on the road to sell to a sceptical public. first up, iowa on thursday. harry? >> nancy cordes at capitol hill this morning. thank you. joining us how from the white house is david axelrod, senior adviser to president obama. mr. axelrod, good morning. >> good morning. good to be with you. >> you and your boss have bet everything on this bill. will you live to regret it come november? >> no, i'm not going to live to regret it come november or many novembers to come because i know what had this bill means.

i know personally what it means. i have a child with a chronic medical condition, there was time in my life when i couldn't get her the proper insurance. and it was a great big strain on my family. i know there are millions of other families with kids with pre-existing conditions who have some more security today because of what we did. i they smaknow small businessest significant tax credits to pay for health care for their employees because of what we did. people will not be thrown off their insurance any longer simply because they become seriously ill. and there are so many things that will flow from this that will give people more security. so i have no regrets, nor do i have any fears about november as a result of this. >> it's very interesting because you look at the polls show plenty of americans don't like this this health care reform bill, but if you really look at the poll, they also don't know what's in it. it sounds like you have a monumental sales job ahead of you. >> well, the difference, though, is now the bill's a reality.

it's not a theory. we're not dealing with caricatures placed on it by opponents and by the insurance industry, we're dealing with the reality of it. so this week when small be businesses learn that they now have 35% tax credits to buy health care for their employees, that will be the reality of this bill. when people learn that their children with pre-existing conditions can now get coverage, that will be the really different bill. when people learn that the life time caps that insurance companies plaes on theplace on coverage is no longer in place, that will be the really difference the bill. so as it gets implemented, the reality -- which those individual elements are all very popular. people will become familiar with what it is and what it isn't and i think we'll profit from that. >> republicans will pry every procedural possibility to try to stop this. do you have any doubtsry every procedural possibility to try to stop this. do you have any doubtstry every procedural possibility to try to stop this. do you have any doubts that this

will succeed in reconciliation? >> no, i don't have any doubts, but i also understand the law goes in to effect today. the reconciliation bill deals with some correction and improvements to the bill. but the law goes into effect today. so we're moving forward tos and improvements to the bill. but the law goes into effect today. so we're moving forward to reform the system and give the american people more security. and this is a great day. >> david axelrod, thank you very much. do appreciate it. >> good to be with you. now here's maggie. >> now let's hear the republican view on the bill being signed today. republican national committee chairman michael steele is in washington this morning. mr. steele, good morning. even if do y you do defeat thes changes, the original bill becomes law. you'll be stuck with a bill you don't like. now that it's a reality and people start to see the benefits, what if they actually like it, what if the catastrophic scenario doesn't play out?

>> well, it was fascinating listening to david axelrod describe this bill because it remindeded me of going to the doctor when you were a kid and you had to get the needle and before you got the needle, the doctor put a nice juice sir loply pop in front of you and said here's a lollip off the p and he hits you with the needle. and that's what's going to happen here. he can didn't talk about the money being taken out of medicare, an already bankrupt system that we'll now extract $506 billion from. he didn't talk about the $500 billion in new taxes that will be imposed on those small businesses that will more than offset any tax credit they get to pay for premiums for their employees. so there's a lot of a needle-type experience in a people will have while they're sucking on the lollipop that david axelrod has put in front of him and the reality is this is a bad bill. and nancy pelosi was right. now that they've passed it, we get to see what's in. i don't think that's the way you

deal with one-sixth of our economy. certainly not the way the american people wanted this to unfold. and every effort should be afoot to repeal it, to start with something that's centered on those cost centers that are driving the cost of health care right now, not this massive overhaul of health care, which by the way included the government takeover of student loans programs around the country. so this government knows no bounds. and i think there's a lot in this bill yet to be revealed when the american people. and when it's further revealed, it will be less liked. >> if it turns out to be the catastrophe that you are predicting and repealing it is not your only goal. the rmc website, and i was surprise bird what i saw. the home page show as big photograph of nancy pelosi and in huge block letters it says fire pelosi and she against a backdrop of flames. >> yep. >> isn't this a little bit extreme? what can you accomplish with

this? >> actually, i tamed it down. the reality of it is i don't know why you're surprised. nancy pelosi is the architect of the demise of one-sixth of our economy. she should be fired for her failure to serve the interests of the american people. this administration and this congress thumbed their nose at the american people over the last year. countless town hall, tea party events, 30,000 people on the mall the day that they're signing this bill saying don't do this. they did not listen. their arrogance knows no bounds. so i'm inviting people to join me in giving us a congress that will work for the people and not for nancy pelosi. congressman stupak should be ashamed of himself. clearly her reach is strong. and i think that it we get folks to go to fire nancy pelosi.com, help me do it. >> all right had, congressman stupak who was going to vote no but eventually voted yes. michael steele, thank you so much. now to disturbing new allegations in the michael

jackson case. cbs news correspondent ben tracy has the story of an eyewitness who now says that as the king of pop lay dying, his doctor was busy hiding evidence. >> we have a gentleman here that needs help and he's not breathing. >> reporter: in the final frantic moments of michael jackson's life, the man who called 911 claims dr. conrad murray stopped cpr and started bagging up vials of drugs. this a document, alvarez told investigators that murray asked help to put the vials along with an i.v. into duffle bags. >> this witness if believed has evidence that dr. murray at the moment of crisis you wered away from his patient, michael jackson, and decideded to hide evidence. this is explosive. >> reporter: the document obtained by ap describes a grim scene at jackson's rented mansion. his two children, prince and paris, came into the room and cried as murray was trying to save their father. the singer's mouth and ice were

reportedly open, but there was no sign of life. last month dr. murray was formally charged. he's accused of giving pro follow to help him sleep, but it ultimately killed pim help dr. murray's attorney says the allegations are being leaked to hurt his client. he says, quote, the statement was given more than two months after michael jackson's death and is inconsistent with a statement he gave to police the day after mr. jackson was taken to the hospital. dr. murray is due back in court next month where prosecutors will officially layout their case against him. ben tracy, cbs news, los angeles. >> to get reaction from this story from tom mesereau, michael jackson's former attorney. mr. mesereau joins us from los angeles. good morning, sir. >> good morning. >> if these allegations are true, what does this mean for the case against dr. murray? >> about they're true, they're very damaging statements for the defense. hiding evidence in a situation like this this reflects a guilty

conscience. however, do i thi however, i do think the defense will attack this witness because he never mention this had and that's an pofrpt issue. they'll attack his credibility, investigate his background and expect a real attack on this wet. >> witness. >> the police interviewed him at least two times and there are two different stories. which one then do prosecutors and a jury end up believing? >> well, i think the defense will say that the more likely story is the one that was given closest to the time of the death of michael jackson. so this witness is going to be attacked viciously by the defense for making inconsistent statements in this investigation. >> doesn't this also give us a little bit of a glimpse into what was transpiring in michael jackson's life in terms of how he was comporting himself, how

he was trying to mount his comeback? you've got people who are trying to help him go to sleep, keep him alive, you have people who are basically enabling him. >> well, he was the best known celebrity in the world. he was a fabulous musical genius. and he at tragtsed all kinds of people. up fortunately, he put his life and health in the hands of this fish and tphysician and it kill. >> is there any response yet from the jackson family to this new news? >> they're absolutely horrified by this whole event. michael put his life in the hands of a doctor. the doctor was the one who was in charge of giving him whatever medication he needed and doing it professionally and properly. and apparently he died because of it. so the family is absolutely outraged and saddened and they want this man behind bars. . >> and this if this agencies tu o

allegation turns out to be true, would there be further charges? >> will could be an obstruction of justice charge. i think they'll keep it clean and simply go for involuntary manslaughter. >> tom mesereau, thank you. do appreciate it. >> thank you. it is now 7:14. time to check the rest of the day's headlines with betty nguyen. she's at the news desk. good morning. china is angry over the latest move in its censorship dispute with google. this morning they called the decision to shut down its internet search service, quote, totally wrong. yesterday google shifted users to hong kong to avoid censorship rules. this morning china already started blocking sensitive topics on the search engine. the british government says it will expel an israelily agent this morning. this video from a hotel in dubai captured the alleged assassins

her marriage. the concept dates back to common law when a wife was considered property. property that could be stolen. some attorneys find the law archaic. >> it's ridiculous. absolutely ridiculous. and the trend has been more and more towards shutting it down. >> reporter: cynthia shackleford won $5 million in compensatory damages and $4 million in punitive damages. but alan shackleford claims his marriage didn't fail because of lundqvist. in and online post to his local paper, he said his wife wanted to divorce him at least two years before he began a relationship with ann lundqvist. the marriage did not break up because of anne lundqvist. cynthia shackle word who came out victoria joins us with her attorney. send these, what is your reaction to that statement from your husband that he didn't actually begin a relationship with ann lundqvist

until two years after you said you were going to divorce him in. >> i never said i was going to divorce him. we were together and i had no idea that there was divorce in the future. we had just added on a master bedroom and bathroom to the first floor of our house so that when our children got married and came home with their children that they could be on the second floor and welding on the first floor. so it was all news to me. >> how did you find out that he was having an affair with her? >> i found out -- i didn't believe it. i pefelt it, but i didn't belie it because i trusted him. and he had told me that they were just friends and anytime any affair was mentioned, it was alleged. so i just kept on and on and just saw the path of our marriage was not doing well and it seemed like she was always calling our house. and he was always taking her home. and one thing led to another. >> and then you get this idea to sue her. why her some she is not the one who vowed to be with you

forever. he is. >> that's correct. but she's the one that came in between us as far as her luring ways, and which i had plenty of proof from e-mails, phone records, spending that she alienated him from me. she used work and other ways to get in and get frents frieiendlm and it's like those lifetime movies that you see that she just worked her way. >> and this lawsuit does claim that alienation of affection. did you think you'd have a shot at win something. >> did i think i'd have a shot at what? >> at winning about. >> oh, yes. i had plenty of evidence and witnesses. >> was it about the money for you? because she says she doesn't have $9 million to give you. >> first of all, it's not about

the money. but i wouldn't believe anything she had to say anyway. i'm just trying to accepted a message to other people that are like anne lundqvist, that if ter's loter they're looking at somebody else's husband that's still sleeping in the marital bed and comes to parties and sbr sintro his wife at his better half, to leave him alone. >> mr. jordan, anne lundqvist is appealing this decision. do you think that the jury's decision will stand up? >> i do believe it will stand up. i definitely do. one thing i'd like to say is in response to your critic of the law that we have laws against people tampering with contracts, perhaps if one network tried to lure you to another against your contract, there would be a suit for interference with contract rights. and alienation of affections is very similar to that.

>> all right. that's a good analogy. helps us understand that. thank you both. >> thank you. now let's check back in with dave at 7:35. very interesting story. >> hey, dave. >> let's move to something a little less controversial. >> what is it? >> the weather. and a little more reliable, certainly. as we take a look at the forecast, everybody. we'll start in wyoming, colorado. why is this because why? you have snow showers moving through, upwards of half a fooft foot of accumulation. we'll have a watch that. ski areas will delight especially in new england where you will see all of this rain begin to move on up. as you head to new hampshire and maine, could get up to a foot of though. meanwhile cool conditions continue to prevail in the southeast. we are going to see a little bit of change. temperatures will warm up as we head to wednesday. midsection of the country looks relatively dry and uneventful.

most likely since it's earl will on, it it is a miskarmg. it's crazy to not know if i was still pregnant or pot. >> i got swine flu. it clicked later. pregnant women are dying from this. >> everyone says the second trimester gets easier, but i feel like it's harder. >> the hormones. >> i do have a little bit of sciatica. >> moth people are like stay in bed, use a heating pad. >> you feel like an old lady. no offense against old ladies, but you just feel like you're in somebody else's body. >> sleep is getting harder. >> i can't really sleep at all, which makes me eirritable. >> one minute i'm up here, the next i'm down here. >> kudos to my husband because he's the one that catches the brunt of it because you never know what you'll get when you wake up in the morning. >> april, amy and julie are here this morning. jessica, our other pal, her

doctor restricted her travel, so she can't be with us, but we say hooe to h hi to her at home. also dr. jennifer ashton. so this is what nobody tells you before you're pregnant, but we're here to tell it like it is. it's not all fun and amazing. let's talk about some of the concerns, jen. april, we know that you recently had a health scare. is everything okay? >> yeah, right now everything is on okay. i'm on bedrest and taking medication. to stop the contractions. and it was very scary. and just trying to adjust to a big lifestyle change all of a sudden ten weeks early. >> so you started to have contractions. is that pre-term labor? >> if it changes your cervix, it is. otherwise it's just pre-term contractio contractions. luckily for april, her cervix didn't dilate, but she on medication to keep the contractions at bay. and bedrest has never been shown

to have positive effect, but we do it all the time because it's common sense. and we know that it certainly can't hurt. so when you talk about risk/benefit, it's not zero risk, but it's low arriving. i low risk. but it's tough to be on bedrest. >> because she's ols on talways go. is this pretty common? >> it is common, but the good news is that her cervix isn't dilating and hopefully she'll make to about 36, 37 weeks. and your doctor does know you're here. >> amy, you mentioned you had some bleeding. is that pretty common, too? >> it is. we have to distinguish between common and normal. it's not normal to bleed in pregnancy 37 pregnancy. but it is common especially in the first trimester. when you haven't yet seen a heartbeat, it is called a let'senlet's

threatened miscarriage. so it's several weeks usually of high stress, high anxiety. when you bleed further along, you have to exclude things. but you want to talk to your today immediately. >> and you talked about the emotions. >> pay first pregnancy, i didn't have this problem with hormones. and not too many baby blues. so i'm worried now that maybe because i am so hormonal, is that kind of a marker for maybe i'm going to be a little bit more -- have more post-partum deprugs. >> what's so important is that julie is so self aware that she's keeping track of the hormone knoal swings and

communicating them to her doctor, her husband, her family. it's thought to occur over 10% of the time, so really every woman is potentially at risk. if you suffer there true depression or other psychiatric disorders and they get worse can during pregnancy, that definitely includes your risk post-partum, but mood swings are common. >> what's my excuse? >> that you're a woman. that you get up at 4:00 in the morning every day. imagine doing that pregnant. ladies it's so good to see you. we're all growing about the same. you're 27 weeks, you guys are -- >> 31. >> and i'm 26. so maybe we'll all give birth together. and you'll deliver. thank you ladies. thank you, dr. ashton. coming up next, looking to destress your life? we're getting rid of the clutter, harry smith. we're taking you paperless when we come back. >> announcer: "cbs health watch" sponsored by walmart.

we could all use help in this era of information overload. it's time to dump all the documents and papers in your life. and here to help, the former chief information officer at google, douglas merrill, has great spring cleaning advice in terms of how to get organized. he's put it all in a new book called "getting organized in the google era." and it's good to have you with us. >> thanks for having me. >> why are we standing in front of all these boxes, reams and reams of paper? >> the average american goes through 750 pounds of paper a year. that's five full trees. and it also is very hard to work with. it's very -- you can't search it, you can't find it. you're killing the environment

and doing it in a way which isn't helpful. >> so if all of this stuff ends up looking like my office, you get over he wiwhelmed by all th stuff. so there are ways to get rid of it all, right? >> we're created enough information to fill 5,000 copies of the library of congress on the internet. obviously it's a huge challenge to keep that organized and not be overwhelmed. >> we think about the things that we absolutely have on hato on paper. what are the things you really only need to have paper copies of? >> almost never. but do you need a copy of your birth certificate, a copy of your marriage license, and you need a copy of your will. but other than that you really need almost nothing on paper. >> so you don't need five filing cabinets. you need one thing with that stuff in it. >> i have one-half of a filing

cabinet in my office. >> let's try and figure out how we should proceed then. so i have my birth certificate, my marriage contract, my will. what about tax returns? aren't you supposed to save tax returns for like seven or ten year sms. >> the length of time varies a lot based on your situation. but you don't want them lying around. almost 16% of all security problems in 2007 were from people who took a piece of information, primtnted it out, d threw it away without shredding it. when you have a piece of paper, people can find it, shred it. >> so as your bills and all this information comes in, all these reams of paper come into your house every day, this is the place where it really needs to end up. >> absolutely. >> and you should scan it, i suppose. >> yes. >> so what do we do with that information then?

if i'm going to be disposing it, you how do i keep it electronically? >> there are three good on did the line applications. the first one is drop box. drop box is a tool which allows to you take a file of any kind and store it in the cloud. what that means is that you can share it, you can hold it, you don't have to have it on your local. 12% of security incidences were from people stealing your laptop. so getting your files off of your laptop on to the cloud is a huge security win. >> and what's google box? >> it's a tool which allows to you both store files and share them, but more importantly, search them. so you have scanned a bunch of your information, you need to understand where it is. one of the problems with traditional files is that you mark them in a label or you stick them in your filing cabinet and then you'll never find them again. because you'll label them wrong. >> there you go. all right. a brave new world. i'll trust that everything that you said is absolutely correct. douglas merrill, thank you very much.

for you this morning. just in time for national puppy day. here with tips is pet expert andrea arden, co-host of understand dunder dog to wonder dog. >> we've got wonderful dogs and i believe for adoption from bide-a-wee foundation. if you're considering getting a puppy, really is it the right time for your family. we need to consider that the cost of a dog every year is somewhere between $500 and $2500 depending on the size of the dog and the health. so that's obviously -- >> the feed williingfeeding, th the shots. >> yes. so we want to encourage people to adopt, but adopts at the right time. because if you get a right time and it's not the right time and you bring the dog back to the shelter, that dog's odds of readoption -- >> go way down. we have three different kinds here.

>> so this is a sheltie mix. she's already had a litter of puppies. >> she's a total sweetie. very calm. >> and hthen we have two beagle mix puppies. and this is a good example of how you need to know the dog's personality because odds are that this girl is probably got a little more mellow temperament than the typical beagle mix puppy. >> and they're always going to bark. you look at the dog now, you walk into the shelter, and you go, oh, it's so cute, it will cuddle all the time. it will spend a lot of its time pa barking because it's the nature of the beast. >> you really need to make a puppy wish list, give your opinion on what you're looking for. you need to consider activity

lev level, you also want to consider the size of the dog. a premium food like wellness is a really good example, costs about $1 per pound. so if you have a dog who is very small, obviously the cost of feeding per year will be a lot less. >> that makes all kinds of sense. >> very obvious. but a lot of people don't consider that. they get a big shepherd mix puppy and they don't realize it might cost more. >> i think you also need to think about ahead of time how much you you know you're going to spend -- how much team you're going to spend with the dog every day. because a lot of people get the dog, it's so exciting, you have a it for a little while and two or three days later all of a sudden the dog is left in the box and they get nervous and they start chewing on stuff. >> there's that honeymoon period and after a few days the puppy starts to do all the things that are normal. so another thing to consider is do you enjoy grooming.

some are wash and wear. and perhaps most importantly you need to consider the dog's temperament. this dog to me is an example who if you go into a shelter and you spend some team with her, she's got a lovely temperament. >> this sheltie is great. >> but there are people who prefer dogs who are a little bit more rambunctious. >> something you can go on runs with, walks in the woods and everything else like that. one other tip from our house. if you can, read some training manuals or bring a trainer in. >> you're talking to a trainer, so i absolutely agree. >> no question. because you don't want to wait until the dog has a million bad habits before you try to break them all. >> and get yourself a crate, use it properly, get good food, and lots of chew toys. >> okay. look how cute this dog is.

>> and they're all available for adoption. >> thank you so much. and special thanks for booid a would he fou bide-a-wee foundation for loaning us these pup ipiepuppie. for more, go to our website p in that. after taking time off to raise her two son, monica is back. the grammy award winner's first album in four years "still standing" goes sale today and the first single, "everything to me," is currently number three on the r&b charts. and here to sing it for us this morning, please welcome monica. ♪ boy if you ever left my my side it'd be like taking the sun from the sky ♪ ♪ i'd probably die without you in my life ♪

♪ >> so glad to have you back. how does it feel? >> it's been a long time. i find that i'm met straighted more because of my children. i see them watch me, i see them be proud of me, i see them say what they don't like. >> your best critics. >> they are. and coming out on a day like today is special and i just

think that it's all been a blessing. >> the title, "still standing," is there any hidden meaning behind that? >> absolutely, but none of it is music related. i think about personal triumph because i think sometimes we're al consumed with our problems instead of looking at some of the things we've been blessed with. and i'm learning to look at the things that i have instead of the things that i don't have. >> i love that. and i love your new video with chad ochocinco. is he so cute. how did he get involved in that? >> actually it started out, we were looking at different people because it's actually a takeoff of a movie. and tough love, they actually picked him for the video and said trust me, he has a wonderful personality, he'll be easy to work with an peopd peop will know him. and i have truly found out exactly who that is. so it was a great experience. >> congratulations on everything. it's great to see you coming so well. >> thank you. it's been a blessing.
