THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.


ANNOUNCER: From the Time Warner center in New York, this is DAYBREAK, with Carol Costello and Chad Myers.
VALERIE MORRIS, CNN ANCHOR: Good morning, everyone.

The first tropical storm of 2005 heads towards Cuba.

Also coming up in this half-hour, a teenager's passionate plea to Congress for a national sex offender registry that would include juveniles.

And what role Aruba's tourism industry is playing in the search for Natalee Holloway.

But first, "Now in the News."

Tensions over North Korea's nuclear program are likely to dominate White House talks today. A few hours from right now, President Bush will meet with South Korea's president, Roh Moo-hyun. Both are trying to find ways to get the north to rejoin six-party talks.

Bolivia's supreme court chief is now the country's interim president. Eduardo Rodriguez replaces President Carlos Mesa, who resigned after weeks of violent anti-government protests. Elections are expected in the next three to six months.

In Japan, an 18-year-old high school student is being questioned after an explosion at a high school. Police say the student threw a jar filled with gun powder into a classroom. Fifty-three people were treated for minor injuries.

(WEATHER REPORT)

MORRIS: We're turning our attention now to a CNN "Security Watch." President Bush is putting his political muscle behind the anti-terror law known as the Patriot Act. It expands FBI surveillance and law enforcement powers in terrorism cases.

During a speech in Ohio, the president urged Congress to make 16 provisions permanent, which are set to expire at the end of the year.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

GEORGE W. BUSH, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: All 16 provisions are practical, important, and they are constitutional. Congress needs to renew them all. And this time, Congress needs to make the provisions permanent.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

MORRIS: Privacy advocates say the Patriot Act undermines freedom.

A newly-released government report spells out the FBI's failures before the 9/11 attacks. The report finds the bureau missed at least five opportunities to uncover vital intelligence information about two hijackers. It also blames the FBI for not following up on an agent's theory that Osama bin Laden was sending students to the United States flight training schools. The report from the Justice Department's inspector general was kept secret for a year, but it resembles a report from the 9/11 Commission.

Cell phones and text pagers are not the best way to get the word out about an emergency on Capitol Hill. That's according to a congressional administrator who looked into the government's response to that May 11 plane scare. He says the basic problem is too many users jamming the circuits.

In California, a bail hearing today for a man arrested as part of that terrorism investigation in Lodi. Twenty-two-year-old Hamid Hayat is under arrest, accused of lying to federal investigators about training at an al Qaeda camp. His father, Umer Hayat, is also under arrest, charged with making false statements. Authorities believe the men were making plans to carry out a holy war against Americans. Three other men also were arrested on immigration charges.

And be sure you stay tuned to CNN day and night for the most reliable news about your security.

A Wisconsin teen says her was stolen when she was sexually abused as a child. Now, Amie Zyla is asking Congress to pass a law making the records of juvenile sex offenders public. And she's already persuaded Wisconsin lawmakers to pass such a bill.

Amy and her family are on a mission after finding out that the man who assaulted her is back on the street and accused of abusing more children. Because he was juvenile at the time of the crime, the offense wasn't disclosed to the community. Amy says that's just plain wrong.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

AMIE ZYLA, ABUSE VICTIM: I was so mad that what happened to me seemed like it didn't matter. I just didn't count. I didn't count, and the new victims didn't count. It was wrong that my parents and I did not know he was out. He hurt me, he hurt my friend and threatened my life. On top of that, no one could tell the community what he was capable of, and because his rights were considered more important than my safety.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

MORRIS: Congress is expected to pass its version of Amie's Law sometime this summer.

And "AMERICAN MORNING" will have much more on Amie's testimony. Here's CNN's Carol Costello -- Carol.

CAROL COSTELLO, CNN ANCHOR: Good morning, Valerie.

That's right. Amie is going to join us live, along with her father, Mark. She'll tell us more about her painful ordeal nearly a decade ago. We'll also look at the flipside of this issue. Some critics say making juvenile sex offender records public could hurt their chances for rehab. How do Amie and her father respond to that?

And, as you've been reporting three more men are in custody in connection with Natalee Holloway's disappearance. One is the son of a local judge. Natalee's father joins us live from Aruba. We'll find out what investigators are telling him about these latest arrests.

That's all ahead on "AMERICAN MORNING."

Back to you -- Valerie.

MORRIS: All right, Carol, see you shortly.

Still to come on DAYBREAK, you may be paying more out of your pocket for your next doctor visit. "Business Buzz" is ahead.

But first, here's a look at what else is making news this Friday, June 10.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

MORRIS: And now a market snapshot. The international markets are up this morning. Japan's Nikkei closed up 143 points, Britain's FTSE, 100, up about 28 points, and the German DAX up nearly 30.

It's time now for the "Business Buzz." Carrie Lee is back with a little good news and a little bad news.

CARRIE LEE, CNN FINANCIAL NEWS CORRESPONDENT: Well, is the medicine cabinet half-empty or half-full? Maybe that's one way to look at this.

What's happening is insurance costs are going up. And they are going up, but not as much as we saw last year. HMOs are asking for price increases of about 12.5 percent for 2006; this, according to a survey from some of the largest employers done by Hewitt Associates.

After negotiations are completed, however, the actual premium increase is expected to be between 8 and 9 percent. That would be the slowest rate of increase in five years, but that rate is still a lot higher than the inflation rate and the increase in salaries.

Now, one way employers are trying to keep premiums down is by raising co-payments for drugs, doctor visits and emergency room visits. A separate survey by the Kaiser Family Foundation shows that the average annual premium is nearly $3,500 for a single employee and $9,500 for a family plan.

So, it's still quite expensive, and a lot of people are already aware of this, having to change their budgets in order to accommodate the higher costs.

MORRIS: Get us set for the open. It's going to be mixed?

LEE: It looks mixed. The S&P futures are looking up. Nasdaq is looking a little bit weak. Intel is going to be a stock to watch today. They're upping their sales forecasts for this quarter to above what Wall Street is expecting. Good news there, although the stock did lose a little bit of ground last night in the after-hour's session. So, that's going to be the key thing today.

MORRIS: All right, Carrie Lee, thanks so much.

LEE: Thank you.

MORRIS: Your news, money, weather and sports. It is 6:43, and here's what's all new this morning.

When it comes to his judicial nominations, President Bush is now five for five. The latest judges to win Senate approval are William Pryor and David McKeague and Richard Griffin.

In money, 600,000 more people are millionaires. That's according to the annual world wealth report. It says 8.3 million people had a million bucks or more at the end of the year 2004.

In culture, did you see the kiss at the MTV Movie Awards? Take a look. Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling got the best kiss award for their work in "The Notebook." Other big winners at the awards show were "Mean Girls" and "Napoleon Dynamite."

In sports, Atlanta Braves' chipper Chip Jones will be sidelined indefinitely, and it's due to an injured toe. But the third baseman will not need surgery to fix it.

(WEATHER REPORT)

MORRIS: Still to come on DAYBREAK, how is the disappearance of Natalee Holloway affecting Aruba's tourism industry? Ahead on DAYBREAK, we'll have that story.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

MORRIS: It's 6:48, and here is what will be making news today.

You are looking at pictures of several tornadoes that were signed in parts of Kansas. They caused some damage and power outages, but no injuries.

Congress continues its work on the renewal of the Patriot Act. More than a dozen provisions are set to expire this year. Among them, providing authority for nationwide search warrants. The Base Closing Commission visits Walter Reed Army Hospital in Washington. The 96-year-old facility is on the shutdown list. Nearby residents vented their outrage at a town hall meeting last night.

And some major sports memorabilia is on the auction block at Sotheby's today. Items include the first baseball thrown out at the opening of Fenway Park and the Red Sox contract that sold Babe Ruth to the Yankees.

And as you ponder that, it's time to give away a DAYBREAK mug.

ROB MARCIANO, CNN METEOROLOGIST: Yes, it is.

MORRIS: That's good. You know the details.

MARCIANO: Chad took the mug. I don't have the mug with me.

MORRIS: Oh, come on now.

MARCIANO: But it's a nice mug, and it's worth a try.

MORRIS: OK.

MARCIANO: All right, we're going to give away today's mug. And our lucky viewer had to answer these two questions correctly. How many inspectors were cut from the FAA budget? These questions were asked yesterday. And the second question, what television journalist's remarks prompted lactivists to protest? The answer to that -- oh, I'm sorry. I've got to give the answers. The answer to question number one...

MORRIS: That's a good idea.

MARCIANO: ... is 300 inspectors. The answer to number two is Barbara Walters.

And the winner is Carolyn Brubaker from Oakton, Virginia. Congratulations, Carolyn.

MORRIS: Good news to her.

OK. Now, what about today's questions?

MARCIANO: All right. So, if you watched today and answer these two questions right and we'll give you the mug on Monday. Whose famous residence could be in danger from Tropical Storm Arlene? Question number two, if you were born after 1960, what is your expected Social Security retirement age?

MORRIS: OK.

MARCIANO: Submit your answers online at CNN.com/daybreak. And Chad is gone on Monday, and I'm not here, but somebody will be here alongside -- is Carol here?

MORRIS: Carol will be. You know, Carol is everywhere. MARCIANO: She is.

MORRIS: She's just dedicated and deliberate.

MARCIANO: She's like Babe Ruth. You put her in any position, and she just hits a home run.

MORRIS: That's a good analogy. Carol will be here, and we'll have the answers.

MARCIANO: OK.

MORRIS: OK.

MARCIANO: Great.

MORRIS: Thanks so much.

MARCIANO: You're welcome.

MORRIS: Now entertainment headlines this morning.

The Old West stampedes into your TV tonight. "Into the West" spans 65 years of U.S. history from 1825 to 1890. And it is from the point of view of both the Native Americans and the settlers. You'll be able to experience events like the Gold Rush, the Transcontinental Railroad and the Wounded Knee massacre. The six episode miniseries debuts tonight at 8:00 p.m. Eastern on our sister network, TNT.

And now here is an economic break for fans of the Backstreet Boys: free, free. I'll say it again. Free tickets for the group's summer tour. Visit AOL City Guide, buy two reserve seats, and you get two free lawn or mezzanine seats to the same show at absolutely no extra fee or surcharge. The Backstreet Boys tour begins July 22. CNN has a connection to AOL, too.

And it's a double play for Mariah Carey. "Belong Together" topped the hot 100 singles chart for a third consecutive week. And Carey is off on the "Emancipation of Mimi" is back at the top of the Billboard 200.

One of the more quirky award shows has always been the MTV Movie Awards. And this year, they did not disappoint.

CNN's Kim Hutcherson takes a look at the winners and the losers.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Ladies and gentlemen, your host...

KIM HUTCHERSON, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice over): Teenage angst ruled this year at the MTV Movie Awards in Los Angeles. High school comedy "Napoleon Dynamite" won the award for best movie.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I'd just like to thank all of the people that really helped this small film become something special. HUTCHERSON: The film also took honors for Jon Heder's performance as breakthrough male and best musical performance.

JON HEDER, "NATOLEON DYNAMITE": Wow! This is great. Thank you.

HUTCHERSON: Reigning teen queen Lindsay Lohan won best female performance for "Mean Girls."

LINDSAY LOHAN, "MEAN GIRLS": Everyone that voted for me, thank you so much.

HUTCHERSON: Lohan and her co-stars also won for best onscreen teen, while Rachel McAdams took home an award for best breakthrough female.

LOHAN: We want to thank all of the fans.

HUTCHERSON: Best male performance went to Leonardo DiCaprio for his role as Howard Hughes in "The Aviator."

LEONARDO DICAPRIO, "THE AVIATOR": Without all of you, none of us schmucks would be actors in the first place.

HUTCHERSON: Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling won best kiss for their lip-locking abilities in "The Notebook."

RYAN GESLING, "THE NOTEBOO": It was my pleasure.

HUTCHERSON: "Dodgeball's" Ben Stiller took home an award for best villain.

HUTCHERSON: Best comedic performance went to Dustin Hoffman for "Meet the Frockers."

DUSTIN HOFFMAN, "MEET THE FROCKERS": I want to thank all of you MTV fans for reconnecting me to the younger generation.

TOM CRUISE, ACTOR: If I've been able to entertain you at all, OK? Then I thank you for allowing me to do so.

HUTCHERSON: I'm Kim Hutcherson reporting.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

MORRIS: When we come back, more headlines and a look at a look at your travel forecast. This is DAYBREAK for Friday, June 10.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

MORRIS: And you are looking now at live pictures. Good morning from Miami is what the dog is saying, I guess, enjoying playing in the surf. But the reality is a lot of this is being caused by the storm that we have been talking about, Tropical Storm Arlene, high surf in the Miami area.

And then, in Pensacola, Florida, they are bracing and waiting for what's going to happen with Arlene.

(WEATHER REPORT)

MORRIS: "Now in the News."

Five people are behind bars in Aruba in connection with the disappearance of Alabama teenager Natalee Holloway. She has not been seen for nearly two weeks now. None of the suspects has been charged in that case. And as we take a look at this, just remember that we were trying to establish contact with the Aruba tourism director, Myrna Janssen (ph). We have been unable to do that. However, the U.S. State Department, which usually will issue travel warnings recommending Americans avoid certain areas, has not issued any such warning for Aruba.

It is day six of jury deliberations in the Michael Jackson trial. One of the pop star's most rabid supporters has been ordered to stay away from Court TV correspondent Diane Diamond.

Senate Democrats say there will be no vote on John Bolton, not until they get what they want from the White House. They have requested records on Bolton from the National Security Agency, but so far none of the information on the U.N. ambassador nominee has been turned over.

Bolivia's supreme court chief is now that country's interim president. Eduardo Rodriguez replaced President Carlos Mesa, who resigned after weeks of violent anti-government protests. Elections are expected in the next three to six months.

From the Time Warner center in New York, I'm Valerie Morris. And "AMERICAN MORNING" starts right now.

BILL HEMMER, CNN ANCHOR: Valerie, thank you. And good morning. I'm Bill Hemmer.

Tropical Storm Arlene is now on a collision course with the U.S. A watch has been issued just hours ago. Louisiana is involved, so too is the Florida Panhandle.
