we're just getting the information in. that means that the players vote will happen later today in more of a formal setting. training camp could start as early as wednesday now, we've been told. david mattingly has been following this for us. he has been live out of atlanta every day, at least he was last week when those negotiations were taking place. david, did you just get word that something came forward just moments ago? >> reporter: reading and finding out now is that the nfl players and the owners did come to an agreement in the wee hours of the morning. and, bottom line, they're going to play some football. exactly what the owners were asking for last week when they came out of their meeting and had a 31-0 vote in favor of this agreement. and players still have to vote on this. it's largely looked at as a formality, that it is going to go through. and the fans will only miss, so far, one game this season. the first game of the preseason, which was going to be in canton, ohio, the hall of fame game. that appears to be the only casualty of this lockout. so, players will be able to start going back to their stadiums, going back to work tuesday, wednesday. they report for training camp this weekend. >> so, are you saying the ink is dry? i mean, it's definitely -- all the details have been hammered out? done deal for sure? >> what we're being told is that the vote today by the players is being looked at largely as a formality, suggesting that the terms have been agreed on and they're ready to play some football. >> got it. david mattingly, appreciate it. thanks for calling in. that happens within the last 60 seconds. also, we're getting word that the check-in and the ticketing area at american airlines at jfk, that area has been locked down while an investigation is going on into a suspicious package. the bomb squad apparently is on the scene, investigating this unattended bag at the entrance of that terminal. american airlines and the port authority of new york and new jersey have confirmed this for us. we're going to keep an eye on that story as well. all right. it's getting busy already. two minutes after the hour. we're also talking about norway. that confessed killer is going to court. it's not allowed -- you'll remember it's impacted the entire world as of friday and journalists were actually blocked from this morning's court appearance by anders breivik, who reportedly wanted to explain himself for the terror attacks that he apparently killed out alone. 97 people are dead. seven people were killed at bombings and 86 people were massacred at that youth retreat. officials say he rounded up the youngsters, opened fire. they began to scatter as he continued to hunt them down and shot them. bodies were lined up along the beach, causing a lot of panicked teens to try to escape any way they could on that island. cnn's michael holmes has been covering it for us outside of that courtroom in oslo. >> reporter: the media was going to have access, even talk of a have hadio feed from the courthouse. police went to the judge, said they wanted it to be a closed hearing. why? they haven't ruled out completely that he may have had accomplices when he carried out both attack, bombing in oslo and the attack on the island on all those kids. what they said was they feared if it was broadcast and the media were in there, he would be able to send some sort of message to them on the outside. the judge agreed to close the hearing. we didn't get in. we haven't heard exactly what's happened. i can tell you that his lawyer has left the building. we saw that with our own eyes. and we are now waiting for the judge to speak to the media and give them a sense of what his ruling has been. we just got an e-mail from our producer, jonathan walden there, who has been told that the judge will read his ruling at 3:15 local time. at 9:15 where you are in atlanta. that's when we'll hear exactly what's happened. before the hearing, his lawyer spoke with us and said that he expected that breivik would be remanded in custody. that's pretty much what this was, keera a remand hearing, what in the states you would call an arraignment hearing. he won't get bail, especially since he has confessed to this. paradoxically, of course, he also said he will plead not guilty. why? so he can have a platform to spread his views about muslims in europe and their domination in europe, politics and society. kyra? >> there was a moment of silence this morning for the victims, right? >> reporter: yeah, there was. it was at noon right here when it happened, everything shut down. trams running behind our cameraman there, stopped. it has been a somber few days. remembrance services and masses and the king and queen, prince, princess, all the political leaders have been out and about at these services. i was up near the lake where a hotel has been turned into a welfare center for the parents, survivors of the attack on the island up there. very somber here as you would expect. >> michael holmes, we'll keep talking this morning as we follow the story. the suspect in court. less than 15 minutes from now, we'll actually hear from a man who confronted home-grown terrorism right here in the united states. he will share some of his hard-learned lessons from oklahoma city to the 1996 summer olympics. washington, debt talks bogged down and the deadline pressure builds up. we're now less than eight days from the deadline to raise the debt ceiling. on august 2nd, the nation could run out of money. that threat of default has sent world markets sivenging overnight. those who have long viewed the u.s. as a safe bet are now seeing the confidence shaken. let's get to the white house and dan lothian. president obama has canceled two fund-raisers for tonight. >> reporter: right. >> i guess that signals how urgent this has become. >> reporter: that's right. it's very urgent here. in fact, over the weekend on state of the union, you heard secretary treasury timothy geithner who says they're lmt out of the runway. you know what happens when a plane gets to the end of the runway and doesn't take off. that's why over the weekend you heard the president call the bipartisan group of congressional leaders here to the white house, to try to figure out what could be done to raise the debt ceiling. the president meeting with democratic leaders at the white house. one thing is certain among democrats and the president himself. they don't want any kind of short-term deal to raise the debt ceiling that doesn't run through the end of 2012. why? first of all, they don't believe that any short-term deal will settle the concerns of the financial markets. secondly, if you have to then do this again in the midst of an election cycle, it would be very difficult. if it's difficult now, imagine how much more difficult it will be then. that's why the president wants to get something done that takes it to the end of 2012, kyra. >> dan, thanks. investors get to show their anxieties at the bottom of the hour when trading gets under way on wall street. ali velshi will join us to show what the debt crisis means to you and the hidden cost. are you ready to hear the hotel maid's side of the story? the one who famously accused dominique strauss-kahn of sexually assaulting her is now talking to the media. this is how she described what happened. >> i was like, stop, stop this. stop this. he would say nothing. he kept pushing me, pushing me, pushing me to the hallway, back to the hallway, keep pushing me. i was so afraid. i was so scared. >> when did you realize that he was one of the most powerful men in the world? >> i was watching the news and then they say he's going to be the next president of fund! and i say oh, my god. and i was crying. i said they're going to kill me. i said they're going to kill me. i'm going to die. >> she also denies pursuing the case for money. she said all she wanted was for strauss-kahn to know there are just some places you cannot use your money or influence. you probably heard by now, grammy award-winning singer amy winehouse died over the weekend. no cause of death has been released. you probably already know she's been in and out of rehab for years. she even canceled a recent tour after stumbling through her songs on opening night. zain verjee joins us from london. what are police saying about her death right now? >> police are saying they'll be conducting an autopsy today. we probably won't get the results today. we'll get the toxicology report some time soon, over the course of the week at least. she was found dead at her home in camden, here in london saturday night. friends, fans and family totally shocked, even though she had been abusing drugs and many people said that this would be the inevitable end. people are really shocked, laying pictures, flowers, drinks there, too. the guardian has this. album sales surge as fans pay tribute to amy winehouse, a british soul. fans of amy winehouse who died on saturday afternoon, have honored the singer not only with tributes and flowers but by buying her music. her album back to black and several of her singles have seen a surge in sales. and then the herald tribune, troubled british pop singer found dead at 27. as much as her misfortunes eventually took on a sense of predictability, she was a fresh voice on a novel take on pop history. and russell brand had this to say. it's getting a lot of attention on the internet, too. he said when you love someone who suffers from the disease of addiction, you await the phone call. i think the world has been waiting for that phone call about amy winehouse, but never -- at least for me -- thinking it would actually happen. it did happen and it's sad. kyra, her parents were outside her house meeting with fans a short time ago. they said thank you to everyone there and said that amy was always all about love. one of the reports that came out, too, that she had lunch with her mom just the day before. last thing she said to her mom was i love you. kyra? >> lot of talent, you know. so many people fight with demons and they can't win. zain, thanks. congress wrestles with the debt limit, one congressman is wrapped up in a sex scandal. david wu of oregon is accused of making sexual advances toward the daughter of a long-time campaign donor. mark, do we know exactly what allegedly happened? and what do you think, an ethics probe? >> you know, kyra, we don't exactly know the details. we do know that the oregonian newspaper late friday evening reported a story that david wu had this unwanted sexual encounter with a young girl, a girl said to be the daughter of a long-time friend, long-time campaign donor. we also know that house speaker nancy -- rather democratic leader nancy pelosi last night put out a statement saying she will ask for an ethics probe to look into mr. wu's allegations. this is very telling of where democrats think this is going at this point. they certainly do not want another sex scandal along the lines of what we saw with anthony weiner. david wu is in a lot of trouble, seven-time congressman from oregon. >> we've been following the writing out of oregon, obviously, mark. it doesn't look like this is the only time he has been accused of this type of behavior. >> no. he has had a history of having erratic behavior, erratic actions. in fact, during the last campaign, his aides were said to want to take him off the campaign trail because they couldn't trust him out in public. he even sent this photo right here, very bizarre photo to his campaign aides right around halloween. it shows him there in a tiger costume. now, there was no explanation of why he did that. it raised a lot eyebrows. he went on to say afterwards that he was under a lot of stress. he was raising his children by himself. he had the stress of a campaign and he also had lost his father and he was taseeking some medic help. still, david wu is not unknown for controversy and certainly this is the biggest one he is having to face right now, kyra. >> mark preston out of washington, thanks. we'll have your next political update in about an hour. norway attacks shall the work of ay home-grown terrorist. here in the u.s., we've seen it happen before. what has the former director of the fbi so concerned about our safety? that's coming up after the break. out in the wilderness on a survival skill course and brutally attacked by a bear. what happened to the alaskan teen when we go cross country. every day, all around the world, energy is being produced to power our lives. while energy developement comes with some risk, north america's natural gas producers are committed to safely and responsibly providing decades of cleaner burning energy for our country, drilling thousands of feet below fresh water sources within self contained well systems and using state of the art monitoring technologies, rigorous practices help ensure our operations are safe and clean for our communities and the environment we are america's natural gas.

that's just to name a couple. tom has dealt with this before. what's going through your mind as you're watching this unfold? >> good morning, kyra. welcome back, by the way. >> thank you. >> what's going through my mind, as you mentioned earlier, this is something we've seen before. in the u.s., we've seen this for decades and so has europe. it appears from his manifesto that the philosophy is very similar to a neo nazi type group, white supremist type groups have that philosophy. this reminded me very much of the mcveigh type bombing, use of a large fertilizer bomb, constructed at home. followed in this case by attacks with firearms. it does seem to be very similar and with a similar motive we have had here in the u.s. as well. >> so, tom, if you were still on the job and you were monitoring, you know, all the hatred that's out there, what we see on the internet, et cetera, what would your focus be right now when it comes to our safety in the u.s. and home-grown terrorism? >> the fbi focuses on what it calls dommestic terror in this case for decades, fighting ku klux klan. when does freedom of speech cross the line into a conspiracy to commit a crime or commit murder, if there is a conspiracy? in a case like this, with basically someone acting, it appears, on his own. maybe he had somebody help him with constructing the bomb. we don't know what yet. it doesn't take too many people to do this. in his case, it appears he was able to legally purchase the fertilizer because he actually owns a farm, is in agriculture. the purchase of six tons of fertilizer didn't attract the attention of the authorities as it might normally if it was someone else. you know, that's -- i'm sorry? >> the fact that this gunman is still alive, tom, is it possible to learn things from the interrogation, the manifesto, like possibly could he have been connected to somebody else in the u.s. or learning from someone in the u.s.? can there be any positive to come from this with regard to what we should be monitoring here in the states or paying attention to it? >> well, any of the information obtained in the intelligence gleaned by the authorities in oslo will be shared with the fbi and other services that are allied with norwegians. it will be shared throughout the world. in this type of case, it just shows what one individual or a handful of individuals, the utter destruction that they're able to do. it's very difficult for any governmental agency in the free world to suppress that, communication he might have had with others who agree with him, reading of books that support this. in the mcveigh era, we didn't even have the type of websites and communication that we have today. people were reading things like the turner diaries and other books that inspired them to carry out violence on behalf of their philosophy. >> so much more out there now, as you point out, through the internet, that inspires people like this. tom fuentes, always great to talk to you and get perspective. thanks. >> thanks to you, kyra. independent dna experts could help her murder appeal. detail straight ahead. faa partially shut down. that means you don't have to pay taxes on air fares but airlines are still finding ways to get money out of you. details, just ahead. ♪ you are my sunshine ♪ my only sunshine ♪ you makes me happy ♪ when skies are grey ♪ you'll never know, dear ♪ how much i love you ♪ please don't take my sunshine away ♪ [ male announcer ] as long as there are babies, they'll be chevy's to bring them home. ♪ they'll be chevy's to bring them home. naturals from delicious, real ingredients with no artificial flavors or preservatives. naturals from purina cat chow. share a better life. time for "showbiz" headlines for you. an autopsy is being performed on amy winehouse today in london. the singer was found dead in her home saturday. her parents visited the scene, thanking mourners for all the thoughts and tributes. chilean miners have sold their movie rights. bringing the drama to the big screen. miners say it will include details never public ly told. first anchor earned $65 million in its first weekend. it dumped "harry potter and the deathly hallows part 2" to number two at the box office. what could be a pivotal hearing in her murder appeal. zain verjee is following developments for us. what's going on today?
