Now, despite much Better Weather conditions today, none cited plane debris. Meanwhile, there is a growing International Force of ships steaming toward the southern indian ocean to help aid in that search. Australias Prime Minister spoke today warning that the two objects may not be from the plane. It could just be a container thats fallen off a ship. We just dont know. We owe it to the families and the friends and the loved ones of the almost 240 people on flight mh 370 to do everything we can to try to resolve what is as yet an extraordinary riddle. Owe it to those families. Investigators are now looking into the activities of the pilot before the flight took off. Malaysia airlines said today it is aware of the media reports that the pilot made a cellphone call eight minutes before the flight took off. Malaysia Airlines Flight said flight 370 was carrying a small cargo of lithium eye ion batter. They are the type used in laptops and cell phones. They have been known to catch fire, although it is very, very rare. This is an exhaustive search with pilots going grid by grid through the area searching for the images. It is truly looking like a needle in a haystack. We are talking about a piece of debris, about 78feet across, in a search area of several hundred thousand miles. Even if that debris is, was something significant, it could have sunk by now, it could have floated away, i want to bring you two guests to talk about all this. Art write ght is an expert in d water investigation. Also, with us right here, our friend, richard quest, anchor of cnn internationals, quest means business. We want to alternate between two separate tracks. We want to talk about the search off the coast of australia and the investigation into what happened on that plane, two separate fields. Art, i want to start with you. You have searched the area in the southern indian ocean before. You headed a search for a lost Australian Navy vessel which you ended up finding. What are the challenges for looking at things in this place. What are these ships facing right now . These ships are facing weather problems in sea states. Looking for a small object or going up and down waves. With the sea state of 1530 foot waves. The lookouts on the ship have trouble seeing objects and the radars wont pick them up, because its so jumbled. For the searchers, they have to rule out the area grid by grid to insure that they havent missed anything. It is very painstaking process. I think thats the best word to use. Painstaking. We also know there are also limitations. These search planes may have, some of them may have a capacity of 10hour flying time. Four hours to get out there, only a couple of hours to search and they have to head back to land. We know for the first time now, Malaysian Airlines ceo has said on board, there was a small cargo of lithium ion batteries. How concerning is this about the possibility that they have could have exploded, caught fire, caused this plane to come down. The faa in the United States did a report into lithium batteries some years ago. He came up with more than 100 incidents where lithium batteries had either overheated, smoked, molten coming out of it and they looked at this in great detail. So it is a wellknown, and welldocumented issue with lithium ion batteries. The malaysia ceo in his News Conference specifically said that they knew about those batteries. Those batteries had been packed in accordance with ako, as the organization, the International Aviation organization, according with their regulations and it had been checked and rechecked. There is one small point conveniently overlooked by those that want to put the lithium ion battery argument forward. If they had been an incident, there would have been a warning. If there had been a warning, the pilots might have got a may day out. If there had been a fullscale fire, it would have been reported on the acars system and we might well have known about it. The lithium eye on battery theory is there, it will remain there. Does it hold a lot of water . It should frankly be somewhere on the back burner, because it doesnt hold a lot of water. Lets get back to the front burner. 15 miles off the coast of australia, one of the things officials are asking for, more my d hydrophones. How hard is it to search under water . What kind of equipment do you need to scan that ocean floor . The hydrophone is a passive device. It listens from the ping from the beacon on an aircraft. Once that ping is heard, they have an idea where the location is. If that beacon dies and the pings are no longer there, you have to search for deep ocean sonars. We use deep ocean sonars to find objects on the bottom. They have a rarnge. Our sonars have a range of 1250 meters. We do a swath of 2500 meters which resulted in 85 square nautical miles a day searching. It is a very slow, pains staking process. You want to establish on the seabed exactly where that plane is not. If you know where it is not, then you know where you have to search next. Good point. The process of elimination. Richard, lets ping back to you now and talk about the news that came out today. Again, Malaysia Airlines looking at these media reports that the pilot, eight minutes before the flight departed, made a cell phone call. On a regular day, this might not seem unusual. It still doesnt seem unusual to me. Absolutely not. When you say departed, i assume you mean before the doors were closed and the plane pushed back as opposed to at the end of the runway before it took off. Every Flight Attendant, every pilot ive ever known, is making phone calls veirtually to the time they clothes the doors. Almost like the passengers. You have one thing to remember. You and i you cant make a phone call, micayla and jon, for the next 53 minutes, because you are on air. Any Flight Attendant and pilot may not be able to make a phone call for the next 68 hours, because they are flying. There may be a turn around and they may not be able to call on the way back. There could be 1,001 reasons. For this particular profession, Flight Attendants and pilots, they do take the opportunity to make those calls, duties permitting, until the last possible moment. I am not, ill nail my colors on this one. I could be proved wrong by tea time, as ive said many times. I am not in the slightest concerned by this call at the moment. And throwing out tea time in one reference there. Richard quest, art wright, great to have you here with us. Lets take a look at some of the other stories that are making news. We are watching the situation, crimea. Crimea officially a part of russia. President Vladimir Putin signed the treaty into law today after it was approved almost unanimously by moscows parliament. They have signed the political pack Political Part of the trade pack, a day after the us and eu imposed tough sanctions. President obama is mighting with tech ceos today to include thoughts on privacy, and intelligence. It comes at a critical junction yur juncture of the reform date. The president is expected to announce the future of the metadata program. Police are releasing new pictures of the crime scene after the 1994 cobain case. There was much speculation that investigators would reopen the case into his death. They are insisting the case is still a suicide and remains closed. The rock star shot himself at his home when he was 27 years old. Rumors have swirled for years that foul play was involved. Police say these new pictures were not new evidence a new jersey teenager is accused of sneaking to the top of the world trade center. Justin cansico reportedly slipped past security and headed to the top of the floor. It showed pictures of him standing on the roof and hanging from a crane. He is now charged with criminal trespassing. In what seems to me like a fairly epicily awful idea. Puts the things you did as a teen into light. I made some bad decisions. But that is a terrible one as Charles Barclay would say. Ten minutes after the hour. Ahead, one of the most remote parts have our planet. Why there is an added obstacle to the search for flight 370 and how special technology could help in that search . Plus, the pilots home Flight Simulator, how the fbi is working to dig up the clues that could now be hidden in its data. We asked people a question, how much money do you think youll need when you retire . Then we gave each person a ribbon to show how many years that amount might last. I was trying to, like, pull it a little further. [ woman ] got me to 70 years old. Im going to have to rethink this thing. Its hard to imagine how much well need for a retirement that could last 30 years or more.

So i asked my doctor about victoza. He said victoza works differently than pills, and comes in a pen. And the needle is thin. Victoza is an injectable prescription medicine that may improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when used with diet and exercise. It is not recommended as the first medication to treat diabetes and should not be used in people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. Victoza has not been studied with mealtime insulin. Victoza is not insulin. Do not take victoza if you have a personal or Family History of medullary thyroid cancer, multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if you are allergic to victoza or any of its ingredients. Symptoms of a serious allergic reaction may include swelling of face, lips, tongue or throat, fainting or dizziness, very rapid heartbeat, problems breathing or swallowing, severe rash or itching. Tell your doctor if you get a lump or swelling in your neck. Serious side effects may happen in people who take victoza including inflammation of the pancreas pancreatitis which may be fatal. Stop taking victoza and call your doctor right away if you have signs of pancreatitis, such as severe pain that will not go away in your abdomen or from your abdomen to your back, with or without vomiting.

The most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, and headache. Some side effects can lead to dehydration, which may cause kidney problems. If your pill isnt giving you the control you need. Ask your doctor about noninsulin victoza. Its covered by most health plans. It is one of the most remote locations where satellites spotted debris and where planes and pilots have found nothing today it may be where time is running out to find the flight data recorder before it goes silent. You can imagine those searchers are frustrated as well wanting to find something. Tom foreman is literally mapping out the situation in washington. Tom, it is really interested and poignant to point out that the australian Prime Minister, called this area the most difficult area to find things. This is tremendous currents and look at that target area. Thats what they are aiming for. The reason they have all these planes and ships trying to come in here. Where these oceans collide and you get all of this ability to produce storms. You get all the ability to produce storms. You have a great challenge in front of you. You could argue if this plane crashed and if there were debris on top of the water, 14 days ago, by now, it may have moved 1100 miles, because the currents can be so strong down there. So, truly, even if you know where something is, at this moment, it may not be there in an hour. Substantially not there. It could be three miles away. Go down below the water, it is even more complicated. You have all these cross currents and Different Things happening that are quite different than what you have on the surface. And, you have ravines and valleys and all these things. You can go down here with Something Like sidescan sonar, which goes below the water and essentially creates a 3d map of whats down there. It produces images like this that you can then look at and study for details what might be poking out from the bottom and say, is that part of an airplane. As great as this is, it is very focused. You dont just throw this down in a vast swath of ocean. You have to have a clue to lead you down there. The Malaysian Defense minister put out a call for hydrophones, an international, helpme, send hydrophones to the area. What are these devices and how can they help in the search . A hydrophone is what you would use to listen to the pinging of this flight data recorder. They are basically microphones under the water. Thats what they are for. The problem is, you have to know where you are putting it and why you are putting it there. The pinger on these flight data recorders goes about two miles in perfect condition. You have layers of warm water interlaced, it dramatically reduces the effectiveness of the pinger. I am not sure why he wants hydrophones. They are such a specific device. It is like you have lost your keys in your house and you are looking for the keys. The first thing you need is a big look and a big general idea of where they are. This is more like looking through a soda straw and saying im going to look at a little, tiny area. Thats a really hard way to search the house if you dont know where to start. When you look at the size of the area and the enormity of this task, i can understand they want to get all the tools in the tool kit but, like you said, you have to have the right tool at the right time for the right job. It doesnt seem like they are there yet for those hydrophones. Tom foreman, great to have you with us. Appreciate it. Ahead at this hour, the ocean is not the only place the searchers are looking right now. They are also digging deep inside the pilots flight sim mu lay tore and computer.

Off the coast of australia, nothing so far. A huge attention to what happened in the cockpit. Could some clues be buried deep in its memory. That is something the fbi is trying to find out. We know the pilot had deleted some of the data from the system or there was data deleted from the system. We dont know it was the pilot. Like your old malemails and ot computer files. Our pamela brown is in washing wi washington with details. Pam, why dont we start with you and give us an idea of what investigators are looking for in this data on the hard drive. Bottom line, the fbi is throwing a lot at finding out whats on there. Finding out whats on the duplicate hard drive from the flight sim mu lay tore. A top priority for a team of the fbis top forensics experts. They are working to retrieve those files from the simulator as well as the laptop that police took from their homes. They want too see if there are any clues at all as to what might have happened to flight 370. They are going to look to see data was deleted in a very simple, standard way or whether someone went to Great Lengths intentionally destroy those files to hide them permanently. It is important to note they might not find anything significant here but, of course, because it is the best evidence we have, this he have to check. So, mark, how hard is it to get this information they are looking for. Is it that sim and how long could this process take . It can be that simple. It depends, as pam just pointed out, how the files were deleted. If they were simply deleted using a delete command, you can get them back with a command that says restore. If they were wiped forensically the same way the military does to wipe drives that contain classic information, it becomes really difficult to restore that data. There are forensic tools that can be used to try to get data back. They have been able to restore data from computers that have been in hurricanes and floods and fires and the like but it takes a long time to do it. Can i ask you, if it has been wiped that thoroughly, would that raise a red flag to you, because it seems like a far length to go if you are a casual user of a Flight Simulator. If you are deleting files to make room for other files, you are just going to delete them and they will be overwritten over the course of time, if you forensically wipe data, you are doing it because you dont want that data to be available to somebody else later. More commonly, people are starting to wipe data in nonunusual situations just to protect their own privacy. If they selectively wipe data, particularly these Flight Simulator files, it indicates they did it because they didnt want somebody to see it. On the simulator, im sure as part of their investigation into his home, they are also going to be looking at his computer, websites, that the captain and first officer, who are both under scrutiny, they will look at that as well. Just so we are clear, the Flight Simulator is on a computer. It is just microsoft flight sim mu lay tore that you can go buy off the shelf. It just had a lot of customization to it. It is just an ordinary Computer Program like a Gaming Program that you might find. There are three things you are going to be looking at. One, what websites was this person looking at to get an idea of what their politics were, whether they had been radicalized, things like that, two, their communications, both emails and chat messages, who are they talking to and about what . Number three, in the Flight Simulator program, what flights were they simulating . Where are they simulating themselves flying to, to see if there is anything unusual about that. Those are the three things you are going to look for. Good correction on that. Any sense from the fbi, from your sources, when they expect to get some information they might be able to release. All my sources are saying it is going to take some time because of the large volume of the data in that hard drive. At least a couple of taerabytes. I understand that is a lot of data they have to filter through. What they will find out is the degree of those deletions, whether they were routine or more sophisticated. Then, they will find out exactly what was on that deleted data. It could take several days. We dont have a specific timeline. Pamela, mark, thanks so much for being with us. Interesting. Very interesting. It would appear the plane was in the air longer than it was meant to be on its original flight path to beijing.

At this hour, the search for missing malaysian flight 370 has turned up nothing despite the possible debris spotted by satellite some 1500 miles off the coast. A huge mobilization is happening with many more countries joining the effort to send crews to help. Here is where it stands right now. The search. Two weeks after the boeing 777 disappears. Search planes have returned from the mission combing the area, today at least. Despite much Better Weather, nothing was cited today by these planes. The growing International Force of ships is steaming to the southern indian ocean to help with this search. There is an Australian Naval vessel that will alive. Australias Prime Minister spoke warning that the two objects may not be from the plane. Investigators are looking into the activities of the pilot before the flight took off. Malaysia airlines said today it is aware of the media reports that the pilot made a cell phone call some eight minutes before the flight took off. Malaysia airlines ceo said today that flight 370 was, indeed, carrying a small cargo of lithium ion batteries. They first broke this story last week. Those are the type that are used in p laptops and cell phones. They have been used to catch fire but it is rare. They are in this search for the longhall. Two pilots join us, john l u lucich and jeff wise. Malaysian Authorities Say they are aware the pilot made a phone call some eight minutes before the flight departed. Richard quest says he doesnt see a red flag. Lets start with you, jeff. Any concern . We all make cell phone calls all the time. Nothing inherently suspicious. We would all love to know to whom that call was made. You want to know the last person he spoke with before the flight took off. It is easy to imagine if this person was about to undertake some kind of lifechanging adventure, the last person they talked to would probably be a significant choice. Something else that is being discussed today, because of how far this plane may have flown, the search area they are in now, the debris that they are at least looking for, people are wondering, how far can a plane go when it runs out of fuel. This plane may have been flying for a very, very long time, jon. What would have happened . Would it glide to a calm stop or when it runs out of fuel, did it end up crashing into the sea in a violent way . We know that aircrafts glide. We saw that in the miracle on the hudson with sully sullenberger. That could be on the copilot. If a progressive failure of all the Electrical Systems occurred. Thats not unprecedented. In 1996, a value jet out of miami took off. They had a fire on board down in the cargo hold. That in the ntsb report showed a progressive failure of flight controls and electronics. This is not without precedence. It could have happened. If that had happened, the autopilot would have been destroyed also and this would be an airplane with no pilots and no autopilot and it would be out of control. If the pilots had a situation where they ran out of gas, like sullen burg are, they could have collided that aircraft to safety or at least tried to get it to safety. We want to look at what folks on twitter are asking. We thought we would put some questions to you guys. Well ask one question from the viewer. Assuming the transponder and acars were disconnected deliberately, is it possible the recorders would have been switched off zoo. Could they be turned off manually from inside the plane. According to these guys, they had advised me, there is nothing on that airplane they shouldnt be able to turn off if it is an electrical fire. I cannot believe you would be able to turn the flight recorders off. According to these two pilots, you can. If that was the case or they knew, one of the 777 pilots said, you would have to go in the back. I dont fly a 777. It is possible if you know what you are doing or have been trained. You dont have to be a pilot. You have to be somebody thats trained. A 777 pilot i talked to said something similar. We will ask you the second question from twitter. People are wondering about this debris. Someone writes, why not drop the black box ping listener and listen in in that area where they think they spotted that debris . The question is, what harm would that do just to listen in right now . Thats absolutely what they are doing. The problem is that the pinger, this acoustic device, only has a range of about two miles. So it gets too faint to detect. What you have to do is try to drop a series of these and drag along a listening device through the water, try to make a grid. You need to get within a certain distance of this pinger in order for it to work. Here is the problem. This water, in some places, is more than two miles deep. Nowhere on the surface will you be able to detect this pinger. If you get a more advanced listening device, that might increase your range. Huge stretch of ocean. No real clear idea where the wreckage is. If there is wreckage, it is a big problem. The cargo manifest is something that investigators will be looking at as part of their on going investigation. Malaysia airlines talked about the fact that there was a small collection of lithium eye on batteries. We talked again earlier about the possibility they could have caught fire. It happens, although rare. The indications would be that if that had happened, a pilot would have a chance to put out a may day or call or at least alert that there was a problem on board. We have an aircraft that takes off reported at 12 55 a. M. At 1 07, 12 minutes later, it diverted from its path. 12 minutes later, it is off about 90 minutes later. When he is handed off to control, he says, okay, good night. If they had diverted because of the fire, he would have said, we are diverted, going to this airfield, descending at flight level 350. On and on and on. I do not think, while anything is possible, i dont believe thats what happened in this case at all. Can i add something about lithium ion. Sure. We have heard about fires and smoldering involved in lithium eye on batteries with 787s. We have heard about laptops spontaneously come busting. Those are batteries hooked into a device. What we are talking about here is stored batteries in a box. Not to say it is impossible but when we hear about that. Its a different scenario. Its a different scenario. Thanks so much for being with us. Great discussion. Ahead at this hour, we know the plight of the families. We have talked about it here before.

There is nothing you can do to help. We can only wait for further updates. Reporter do you still believe your son is alive . Translator i firmly believe that my son, together with everyone on board, will all survive. Malaysian Authorities Say that briefings for the families on the missing plane will continue as long as the families want them. Lets bring in dr. Gail saltz. We are so pleased you could join us to talk about it. We know these families have gone on an emotional roller coaster for the past two weeks, still, no concrete information that they can be given. Communication was sketchy at the beginning to begin with. I dont know that there is a right way to tell these people how to handle this. What kind of advice do you give someone that is going through this kind of grief . It is traumatic. You are right. There isnt one right way to handle trauma. It does depend on that persons individual psychology, whether it is better for them to be able to talk about it. Some people would really benefit from counseling in this situation. If they would provide some people in these rooms with them, that they could go and talk to or having meetings with so they can talk about how they are feeling or how symptomatic they are and get some help. One size doesnt fit all. One size doesnt fit all. We know some people really dont do wellbeing asked to talk. They just need support of families and friends. It can make you feel worse. Some people do. You shouldnt force them to talk. The way it is handled, with people being dragged from the room and so on, is only amplifying the trauma. That, obviously, no place for that. The families, a lot of them feel like today was the first chance they had, to get the briefings they had to ask the question they want. We were hearing some of the request questions they were asking. There was someone who asked the malaysian officials, do you have any proof that flight 370 was shot down by some countrys military. What struck me about this, it made me think, what must these families be going through. That sounds like a fairly outlandish theory right there. What must they be going through to be thinking those things. When there isnt any information, you are left with the vacuum of your fantasy you start filling in the blanks, dont you . Given what people watch on television and given what happens in real life, imitating real life. People are left to go to their worst place and, in fact, to some degree, it is a better place for them. The idea there is somebody to hold responsible, somebody to blame, somebody they can ask, that there is somebody that they can stop or some way of rescuing their loved one. That is the fantasy that people want to hold on to. Thats why they are going to all these strange places. It would be better for them to some degree if they would not watch everything thats said. Thats the hard part because they are waiting for any outlet to give them a grain of information. What they are doing, it is like a compulsive thing. You want the hope to diminish your ang sgrooxiety. You have this hope to keep looking. You cant turn away from the accident. Every time they do, they are not getting an answer. It only churns them up more. I am sure some of these people are terribly symptomatic and need some help. After, come what may, if there is an after, that thats when the people are going to need more help. And in different ways, too. In different ways. The problem is, the longer there isnt an answer, the greater the possibility of complicated grief. Your ability to process the information, digest it, resolve it and move on. Is diminished so we can go on a long, long time of where you dont know what it is going to be. The anger they feel also makes it worse. I would be very concerned about risk of suicide in people. But for many of these people, it is their only child. Losing a child, particularly, a at the top of the trauma. It puts you at great risk for that. We hope that people get the support they need, each individual, whatever that support might need. My pleasure. Ahead for us at this hour. Out of the box and into the cloud. Big question here. Why isnt crucial flight data uploaded into the virtual world. It happens to our iphones.

Now, granted, we are in large metropolitan area, we have excellent cell coverage. So thats a different story. But i get that were talking about 10,000 aircraft at a time flying over. But were also talking about voice and data, which is very not a lot of bandwidth would be required. And if you can have wifi on board, tv signals to these airplanes, you could very easily be uploading this information at the same time. It occurred to me too it would then also targetel exactly where the search area is. Absolutely. Then you would know the point of last contact. Boom. You could see from the data that they, okay, this was their last gps position. Lets go there. You would have basically the same information thats on the black box. Which for some of these older airlines are still magnetic tape. Is it surprising to you that technology has not really evolved . It is, and it isnt. Because when you look at the Airline Industry as a whole, they tend to not fix things until it absolutely has to be fixed. We saw this with air france. They looked for that black box for two years, and that was well beyond the 30 days of ping they got. And they said then it should at least go for 90 days. If anything was turned off on this plane either deliberately or through some kind of big disaster, presumably the cloud servicing device could be turned off also. So perhaps the data would be limited and could have been sent up there, is there any security concerns for that . Look, if it data is constantly being transferred, you know, isnt that an opportunity for hackers to break in . I mean, it is from a oneway communication standpoint in that hackers would be able to figure out where an airplane is, and everything coming out of the airplane. Could you offer limited amounts of data that would come out, so that it wouldnt be the full black box. Wouldnt be something you could plug into a simulator so you could say do this. It could be simple waypoint or gps coordinates. There are free apps that tell you where airplanes are in the world within three or four feet. You can track if you have an incoming flight, a guest arriving, see where its progress is. And i get the privacy concerns in terms of i dont want my conversation in the cockpit being constantly transmitted. But again, this is something theyre only going to really need to turn to in the event of an incident or in this case a missing aircraft. Watching how people react to the story online, theorys flying around quickly. The idea that these electronics could have been compromised, hacked, if you will. Right. From a remote location. Again, it goes back to you know, these systems that fly these airplanes in the 777 is all fly by wire, computer controlled. But the systems are proprietary and not connected, not on the wifi, so if youre on your laptop, youre not going to see a shared computer thats the cockpit computer. It would be very difficult to do so that. And it would also require, again, a constant connection to the ground somewhere, which if youre flying over 90 of the earth so water, you need to have some sort of satellite connection someone would notice on board. Interesting. All right. Brett larson, great to have you here. Really appreciate it. Have a great weekend. Ahead of this hour, congressman john lewis like you probably havent seen before. Getting real happy. When you see the civil rights icon doing his thing, im going to tell you on this friday, you are going to get happy too. Americas favorite lasagna. Topped with a mouthwatering blend of fresh cheese and aged parmesan. It makes our lasagna a delicious centerpiece for this table this table and your table. Stouffers. Americas favorite lasagna. Geico motorcycle. See how much you could save. So tomorrow is world water day. And chad and his nearly 70,000 volunteers have removed more than 7 Million Pounds of garbage from rivers. During that work, 2013 cnn hero of the year accumulated what he believes is one of the Worlds Largest message in a bottle collections. This is the message in a bottle collection. We have collected over the years. Its pretty cool to find them, because you never know how far they came, where they came from, who they came from. Each tells its own story. This is pretty cool from the 93 flood. Had a flag on it. This is a bunch of lottery tickets, i dont know if theyre winners or not. But obviously not. Heres one. This is cool. Picture of bill clinton. Pretty neat. Some of them have been found three or four times and past on and theyll keep going down the river, down the river. People sign and date them. This one had money in it with postage so you could send it back to them. Cool. Vice president havent done that yet. Probably should. Stamps went up, though. This is a voodoo one. Better not be for me. Has nails in it and a note, with a string tied on it. It said you are bound now. Theres actually a lot of them that are pretty heavy, written to a lost loved one. Din want to keep it. Not meant to be kept. Its fun for the volunteers. But its a pretty unique collection, because i dont know who else finds this many messages in a bottle. So pretty cool. You ever done that with the kids . Havent. I think you might do it now. If you know someone who deserve to be a cnn hero, tell us about them. Cnnheroes. Com. We want to end on this friday with this. Take a look. Break it down. This is my song. Getting down with the good foot. That is congressman john lewis, getting happy. 74 years old. This video has gone viral. Understandably. I can be cynical about anything. It is impossible to be cynical about this. It makes you happy, no matter what the song, obviously, pharrell williams. 74 years old. Recorded for International Day of happy. We tweeted a picture i was going to say us smooching, not us smooching. Happily married man. But we tweeted happiness out there. Were smooching on the inside. John lewis can sure dance, making a whole lot of people smiling. Im not sure how that works, john berman. Smooching on the inside. Thats it for us at this hour. Have a great weekend. Legal view with Ashleigh Banfield starts receipt now. Banfield starts receipt now. Smooshing on the inside . Captions by vitac www. Vitac. Com hello, everyone, im Ashleigh Banfield, friday, march 21st. Welcome to legal view. This hour marks two full weeks since malaysian Airlines Flight 370 took off from kuala lumpur and then just disappeared. It is now longer than any other commercial airliner mystery in history of aviation. And we thought we had a breakthrough with yesterdays announcement of huge chunks of debris spotted by satellite in the southern indian ocean. And we still actually might. But its a bit more dismal today. Another day has come and gone, and meticulous flyovers by five specially equipped search planes sadly have turned up nothing
