Officials are saying this morning they believe there are at least three americans currently being held by isis and that with no negotiations under way and after a failed rescue mission, they fear we have not seen the last of this groups medieval barbarism. As the fbi steps up its hunt for the killer of james foley, some former hostages identified him as one of three british citizens the hostages nicknamed the beatles who served as jailers, torturers and executioners for the islamic terror group. Jim was the subject of repeated physical abuse at their hands. Reporter with growing concern about the fate of a second u. S. Hostage held by isis, steven sotloff, the secretary of defense said the u. S. Would not hesitate to do a second mission. We will not relent our efforts to bring our citizens home and their captors to justice.

The fbi didnt take it seriously. We didnt take it seriously. Reporter meme involved in the process say hostages from france and other European Countries held by isis were set free after ransom papers of about 2 million cash each delivered by middle men from turkey. Something the u. S. Has refused to consider as a matter of principle.

Secretary of defense chuck hagel is using that alarming language saying isis poses an imminent threat to every interest we have, whether its in iraq or anywhere else saying, isis is as sophisticated and well funded as any group that we have seen. Theyre beyond just a terrorist group. We must prepare for everything and the only way you do that, you take a cold, steely, hard look at it and get ready. Very, very strong language, robin. Tough talk from the administration. No doubt bit, martha. But are there limbs to what the u. S. The action they might take, limbs . Reporter weve heard the president say over and over no combat boots on the ground and as you know there have been no u. S. Air strikes in syria where isis has a haven, even the chairman of the joint chiefs saying emphatically you could not defeat isis without addressing the problem in syria. But he also said he was not predicting that the u. S. Would launch air strikes there, although he did not rule that out, robin. Okay, martha, thank you very much.

Reporter registered dietitian Carrie Glassman says theres a sunny side up to eating that meal, increased focus and energy to suppression of hung their could lead to overeating later in the day.

The morning Christian Aguilar went missing two people showed up at the university of Florida Police station in september of 2012, erika friman, the hazeleyed beauty who was current girlfriend and her exboyfriend, pedro bravo. One thing that i remember thinking that was strange right when we came in i overheard a Police Officer saying, oh, this love triangle thing. Reporter at the other edge of that, this teen, pedro bravo, was not only her ex but also one of christians best friends and it didnt take police long to suspect him. Was there a moment during that interrogation that you looked at braff so and said, im speaking to a murderer . I knew certainly after speaking with him for just a few minutes that i was speaking with someone who was trying to be extremely deceptive. So deceptive that out of jealousy he tricked aguilar into meeting then drugged him and strangled him in his blue chevy suv in a walmart parking lot. His movements caught on surveillance cameras, his thoughts captured in his journal. I am a monster for having hurt chris the way i did. Reporter his hatred for his friend fueled by his burring obsession for erika. Hes going to plan a murder. Reporter after killing aguilar, he would dump his body in this wooded wasteland bound and buried face down. He was considered missing until hunters found aguilars body. The jury didnt buy the story bravo tried to sell finding him guilty. The defendant is guilty of first degree murder, false imprisonment, of poisoning, as charged. Reporter at aguilars memorial site his family wept with tears. The name of christian means a gift from god. Reporter a gift stripped not only from his loving family but from what have been the love of his life. I think we would have gotten married eventually. I used to tell him, the world could end right now and if im in your arms, i dont care. The aguilars are just now beginning to heal and erika friman is moving on. Monday is the first day of classes for her at the university of florida and while hell spend the rest of his life in prison pedro bravo, that killer, takes with him to prison multiple mysteries, robin.

Reporter 18yearold dylan jarvis is leaving for college today and is already thinking about how shell avoid it. Im nervous about all this food thats going to be there. Theres an ice cream bar and, you know, they have Chicken Nuggets for dinner all the time. Reporter while you may not gain 15 pounds expert agree youll likely gain some. The Research Shows that the average weight gain among freshmen is about 5 pounds during their first year. Reporter and its no wonder freshmen put on the pounds between the drinking games and late night pizza deliveries theres also a constant stream of food at the cafeteria so how can you take control . First of all, get enough shuteye. So basically when we dont get at least eight hours of sleep each night, we experience hormonal changes that can actually increase our appetite. It can cause us to eat more than we planned. Reporter but you can always keep trim by hitting the gym. Treating it like a class. So you want to schedule time to head to the gym. Not only a gateway to keep your weight in check but stress reliever as well. Reporter dont treat the dining room like an all you can eat steak house. We know theres so many all you can eat buffets. You can overdo it when it cops to calories. Reporter dylan plans to keep the pounds off by staying on the softball at school and avoiding the ice cream bar but is okay with cheating now and then. Im probably going to crack a couple of types but hopefully i stay true to my healthy diet. Reporter for Good Morning America, abbie boudreau, abc news, los angeles. And you can be honest with us.
