i'm brianna keilar in for don lemon. and a couple potentially major developments are injecting new energy into the search for the malaysian airliner that vanished just over four weeks ago in the indian ocean. today a chinese search crew picked up a minute and a half of pings on the exact frequency used by emergency beacons attached to airplane flight data recorders. now, nothing is confirmed, and so far nothing links these pings to flight 370 but the pulses were reportedly defected near the new search area. also today from the air chinese searchers spotted a field of floating white objects about 60 miles from where those pings were picked up. here is the time problem though. if a pinger still is working in the water somewhere, it probably won't be for very much longer. its batteries are designed to operate for 30 days, maybe a few days more than that, and that time is almost up. so it's now 5:00 in the morning in western australia. headquarters of the multinational search mission. planes will fly again when the sun comes

i want to bring in brianna keilar, and here is what republican senator orrin hatch has to say.te, kathleen sebelius had one of the toughest jobs in washington, implementing obamacare, a flawed law which continues to fall short of the promise to the american people. while we have not always agreed, secretary kathleen sebelius did the best she could on the rollout of the law. so is she paying the price on the disastrous rollout and is it really her responsibility? >> yes, i think she is paying the price, we're not really surprised by that, when we saw how poorly it was written out in october and how it dragged out into november. the white house is trying to make very clear that this is something that kathleen sebelius did on her own terms. one white house official told me that she started conversations, multiple, with president obama back in early march when she had a sense that these enrollment numbers were going to be strong and that she felt that it would be a good time to leave. trying to leave on i guess the highest point she could leave, but also because i think she felt he

and as divers continue their grim task, former navy sub officer david jordan tells cnn's brianna keilar that searching for survivors and victims is physically demanding, and really, mentally exhausting. >> there are physiological limits to how long they can stay under water, and they're racing against the clock as they're trying to maneuver their way through these dark corridors. and of course, the vessel is not upright, so everything is inverted or at some funny angle. it's impossible to see. if you see anything, it may be in an unfamiliar orientation. so, the divers are incredible people who have to deal with really quite a large combination of factors. and in the end, they're hoping to find really kind of a gruesome result. there's a story, actually, just back in december of a nigerian cook who was found after two days under water in a capsized vessel, and the divers were in a similar situation, searching for bodies and were incredibly surprised to come across a live person, but that was only two days, and that was quite remarkable. even at these relatively shallow depths, about 100
