ANNOUNCER: Live from the CNN broadcast center in New York, this is ANDERSON COOPER 360.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

COOPER: And good evening again. Friday the 13th, it's supposed to be an unlucky day. We all know that. But we begin tonight with a piece of good luck and good news. The young girl in a notorious series of child porn pictures -- that's one of them -- a girl who was being sought by police for years from Toronto to Florida, has finally been located and she is safe. There is other news, too, in the case of her identification may have helped to break.

We turn now to our colleague David Mattingly in Atlanta for the latest details -- David.

DAVID MATTINGLY, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Anderson, authorities in Orlando are still sorting things out. But they now tell us that the girl that they launched a national manhunt for has been found and is safe and may have been safe for some time.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

MATTINGLY (voice-over): More than two years, countless man hours and unknown thousands of dollars in the making, the desperate international hunt for a single child pornography victim ends in the way investigators never predicted.

LT. MATT IRWIN, ORANGE COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT: We have located the victim in our case.

MATTINGLY: Orlando's Orange County investigators, after asking for the public's help in finding the blond-haired girl just two weeks ago, now confirms she's been identified by the FBI. And is believed to now be 11 years old and in a Pennsylvania foster home.

IRWIN: By saying we have identified her, I don't know where she's at. We are working on getting that information. And I understand that there may be ongoing charges in Pennsylvania, which is the state that the victim is from.

MATTINGLY: The girl will remain unidentified to the public. According to the FBI and Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, the man responsible for putting photos of the girl on the Internet is in prison serving a 15-year term. Neither his name nor further details of his case or conviction were disclosed by federal authorities.

But Orlando investigators say the man is the child's adopted father, and was sentenced to prison last year. The Florida authorities will now pursue molestation charges of their own.

IRWIN: In Florida, based on what we have, he would probably be facing life charges.

MATTINGLY: The international search for the girl began two years ago when Toronto authorities used computers to remove the girl from her pictures so clues could be pulled from the background. Investigators at that time said tiny pieces of evidence gave them hope they could find her.

DET. SGT. PAUL GILLESPIE, TORONTO POLICE: You can tell when children appear to be abused or when they are abused whether or not it's the first time or not. It's worse to see children who have just lost their spirit and they don't really react to abuse, because you know this is the cost of doing business in their own personal life and that says something.

MATTINGLY: This case immediately stood out from the 50,000 other estimated child porn victims on the Internet, because someone from the public was able to identify the bed spread in this photo as one used at a resort in Orlando. The victim quickly became known as "the Hotel Girl."

As authorities pushed the envelope in publicizing previously withheld information in hopes a break. They even publicized a photo of a dark-haired girl they believed was a friend of hers. Someone who was not molested.

But the extraordinary effort ultimately was not a factor. And they have been told that the girl may have been safe for a matter of years.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

MATTINGLY: While authorities in Florida get to the bottom of why the FBI was only able to tell them about this within of the last 24 hours, they are quick to point out that there may be no true happy ending for this poor girl who is now 11 years old. Because her photographs are out on the Internet, they are everywhere, and they may be everywhere for the rest of her life -- Anderson.

COOPER: David Mattingly, very disturbing stuff. We'll continue to follow it. Thanks, David.

Here's a truly shocking figure. According to the Department of Health and Human Services, in 2002 -- and that's the most current year for which the agency has these statistics -- almost 90,000 children were sexually abused. Now, clearly this is a huge problem, continues to be. And anything that can be done to help parents keep their kids safe is worth passing on.

We had a conversation on the subject earlier with John Walsh, who is certainly one of the country's best known child safety advocates, and his partner in a new DVD, Julie Clark of the Baby Einstein Series.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

COOPER: In the past, a lot of kids are taught to be scared of strangers and to pay attention to strangers. But when you look at the statistic, I mean, a lot of kids who get attacked, taken or molested, their attackers known to them.

JOHN WALSH, AMERICA'S MOST WANTED: You are right. In a lot of cases, it is someone that they know. You know, you ask a child who is a stranger, and they go, do you meantime garbage man that I see every week, is he a stranger? Or the soccer coach that I see once a week? I sort of know him but I don't. So it's very hard to differentiate. And that's what this is all about.

COOPER: Yes. In this video, you try to make that differentiation. Let's see a clip here.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: People who are not your safe-side adults are called kind of knows. Even I'm a kinda know. In fact, the following people are kinda know, you just kinda know them. Ready? Your doctor, your dentist, your teacher, your mom's boss, your dad's boss, anybody who works with your mom and dad, your babysitter, you soccer coach, your basketball coach, your gymnastics teacher, your guitar teacher, your drum teacher and the guy who...

COOPER: So how does it help kids to know that are there people who are just kinda knows? JULIE CLARK, CREATOR, "BABY EINSTEIN": Well, I think what's important is that kids understand that somebody who can hurt you is somebody who you might know. And so it's really important for kids to understand that who their safe side adults are. We call them safe side adults. People that you can always trust and that you can always go to.

COOPER: We recently found this video a defrocked Roman Catholic Priest Oliver O'Grady, videotaped a deposition in which police ask him to demonstrate his routine that he would sort of speak to lure kids in. Let's take a look.

OLIVER O'GRADY, FORMER CATHOLIC PRIEST: Hi, Sallie. How are you doing? Come here, I want to give you a hug. You're a sweetheart, you know that. Very special to me. I like you a lot.

She may respond, I like you, too.

And that would allow me to give her a better hug to you.

COOPER: I mean, let's ignore the fact this guy was a priest. It's just so creepy to hear him actually kind of spell it out like that. And even his face.

WALSH: They're good at it. I mean, this is what people it's misconception that it's the guy under the bridge with the trenchcoat that exposes himself. I mean, 4,000 priests have been accused or convict of being pedophiles.

They -- I have been tracking them for years, 20 years now. They really know the ways to manipulate kids. They're nonthreatening. They have all of the ploys and they're so much better at it.

And I think people have to realize, as Julie just said, whether they're a stranger pedophile or someone that they know, they're really good at manipulating children.

COOPER: And John, what are the top three mistakes that you find parents make when thinking about child safety?

WALSH: Well, first of all, assuming it couldn't happen to them. I mean, people think, well, I live in Beverly Hills, or I live in -- out in the Hamptons, it couldn't happen to me.

Number two, that they don't open the lines of communication with their children. It's something they don't know how to talk to their children about. Or they won't broach it, or they will say it in such simplistic terms, don't take candy from a stranger. And the kid will go, what do you mean? Who's the stranger? What do you mean don't take candy from them? And they don't reinforce it continually. There has to be repeat reinforcement.

COOPER: Well, in the video, you also talk about hot tips for kids. What are the top three.

CLARK: Probably the top three, we say, know who your three safe side adults are. Know three people that you can always go to. That your mom, or your safe side adult says that you can always be with, and always go to if you need help.

Another one is don't let anyone inside of your safe side circle. If somebody's getting too close to you, if somebody is making you feel uncomfortable, you need to know that, you need to get away. You need to get out of that situation. And that children are empowered to do that. Children are able to do that. And we need to let them than they can do that.

And another good one is don't give out information. Don't talk to people you don't know unless you're with your safe side adult, unless you're with somebody that says it's OK for you to do so.

COOPER: All right. Well, John Walsh, Julie Clark, thanks very much. It's a great video.

CLARK: Thank you.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

COOPER: Coming up next on 360, the mystery finger identified. The origins of the digit that almost did Wendy's in. It has been revealed by police. We'll tell you who's it is, and how it got in that chili.

Also, could your pots and pans be making your sick? Allegations that a main ingredient in Teflon causes birth defects. We'll look into that.

And later, something for you take into the weekend Jeopardy tips from a champion. And yeah, I'm talking about me.

First, your picks though, of the most popular stories on CNN.com right now.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

JAY LENO, THE TONIGHT SHOW: This woman cost the Wendy's restaurant over $2.5 million. You know what they should do with this women before they send her to prison? They should put the finger back in the chili and make her finish it. OK.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

COOPER: Ugh. It's a case that late-night comedians cannot ignore, still can't. If not one of the -- if not one of America's great unsolved mystery, perhaps one of America's most bizarre unsolved mysteries. That finger in the bowl of Wendy's chili has apparently been solved. Police in San Jose, California, announced today that they believe they have figured out just where the mystery fingertip came from. Find out.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE) COOPER (voice-over): After nearly two months of investigating San Jose, California police say, they've gotten to the bottom of the fingertip in the chili bowl conundrum.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: The jig is up. The puzzle pieces are beginning to fall into place, and the truth is beginning to be exposed.

COOPER: The bizarre mystery began in late March when a Las Vegas woman, Anna Ayala, claimed she had found a human finger in the bowl of Chili she bought at a San Jose Wendy's. The alleged discovery sent Wendy's into an alleged tailspin. As sales dropped, all efforts were dropped to discovering just exactly where the finger came from. Workers at the restaurant were checked to make sure they had all their fingers. Lie detector test were given, and a tip line was setup and a $100,000 reward offered.

Within a month, investigators had determined that the finger in the chili was a hoax. Ayala was arrested.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We feel that we have been victimized and we're hoping that our customers will recognize that. Will understand that we're vindicated and they will come back our restaurants.

COOPER: But the mystery remained. Just who could have lost a part of a finger and not missed it. Finally, detective work and the tip line paid off.

CHIEF ROB DAVIS, SAN JOSE, CALIFORNIA POLICE: On Wednesday, May the 4th, San Jose Police Department detectives received a lead from the Wendy's reward hot line concerning a Nevada resident who may have been the person whose fingertip was allegedly found in a bowl of chili in San Jose on March 22nd. San Jose P.D. detectives were already in Nevada following up leads on May 4, and they contacted the individual in question. It was determined that he lost a portion of his finger in an industrial accident in December of last year. And that he is an associate of James Placencia (ph), the husband of Anna Ayala, the woman being the person who claimed to have found the fingertip in the bowl of chili.

On May 11th and 12th, scientific testing positively confirmed that this subject was in fact the source of the fingertip.

COOPER: Ayala who was arrested April 21st after it was determined she lied about the incident was extradited last Friday from Nevada to San Jose to face a charge of grand theft relating to the hoax.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

COOPER: And police say the man with the missing finger is cooperating with them. Got a lot of other news to tell you about.

Sophia Choi from Headline News joins us with the latest at about a quarter past the hour -- Sophia.

SOPHIA CHOI, HEADLINE NEWS: Hi, Anderson.

Thirty-three military bases on the Pentagon for closure. Another 29 are slated for cutbacks. Military bases in all 50 state are named in the 28-page report, 28,000 military and civilian jobs would be cut. The Pentagon says the closures will save $48 billion over 20 years, but it's not a done deal yet. The list must get approval from the commission, White House, and Congress.

In Gaza, anger aimed at the U.S. Hamas staged this protest in response to a "Newsweek" magazine report alleging desecration of the Muslim's holy book of the Koran at Guantanamo Bay Prison in Cuba. The Pentagon is investigating the allegation.

The first protest broke out in Afghanistan. Other demonstrations have been held in Pakistan and in Indonesia.

In Santa Maria, California, Michael Jackson's former lawyer takes the stand. Mark Geragos told jurors he hired a detective to track Jackson's accusers and his family. Geragos said he as gravely concerned they might be scheming to get money from the pop star. Jackson is on trial for allegedly molesting a 13-year-old boy.

And on this Friday the 13th, a little nugget of info for you. According to the Stress management Center and Phobia Institute, an estimated $800 million is lost in business in the U.S. on Friday the 13th because people are afraid to travel or do normal business. The good news here, the next Friday the 13th, won't be until January 2006.

Do you believe in that stuff, Anderson?

COOPER: No, I don't. I like the name, phobia institute. The phobia institute.

CHOI: Oh, yes.

COOPER: You know what they call it, it is paraskevidekatriaphobia.

CHOI: You know what, that word makes me scared.

COOPER: Really, interesting. We'll talk about that in about a half an hour. Thanks, Sophia. See you again in about 30 minutes. Coming up next on 360, the state of emergency extended in Iraq. More than 400 dead in a recent wave violence. Tonight, though, we're focusing on barbers. Barbers are being targeted by terrorists. We'll tell you why ahead.

Also tonight, separating fact from fiction. One of TV's most popular shows. Not this one, of course, I'm talking about "CSI."

360 M.D. Sanjay Gupta goes behind the camera lens.

And a little later, could the main ingredient in teflon make you sick, even causing birth defects? Some people are saying that. We'll look into it. All the angles coming up next.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

COOPER: We've been closely following the brutal killings in Iraq. Two weeks of stepped up insurgent attacks have left some 400 people dead. Now, the country's new prime minister is taking an extra precaution. He's extending Iraq's state of emergency for another 30 days essentially keeping it under marshal law.

U.S. military also has been busy fighting insurgents near the Syrian border through Operation Matador. Marines there say they are moving through the region without much resistance, which means insurgents are either hiding or on the run.

Now when attacks happen, they are often aimed at U.S. force and Iraqi police. We have seen that over and over. But there are also other lives at risk. And surprisingly, one major target are Baghdad's barbers. The world in 360 tonight from CNN's Ryan Chilcote.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

RYAN CHILCOTE, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): The empty chair in this Baghdad barber shop is an ominous reminder, a warning that even the most mundane task can get you killed. Terrorists tried to execute Rabah for simply cutting hair.

RABAH, BARBER VICTIM (through translator): I was standing out in front of the barber shop when they pointed the gun at my mouth and shot me. The bullet went in my mouth and broke my jaw. Then my left leg was shot five times breaking it.

CHILCOTE: Rabah has been in too much pain to go back to work since he was attacked five months ago. Never in his 21 years as a barber has feeding his family of 13 worried him so much.

(on camera): Barbers throughout Iraq are being targeted by extremists who adhere it a strict interpretation of the Koran that forbids men from trimming their facial hair.

(voice-over): The extremists particularly loathe the practice of threading. Popular in the Middle East and South Asia. It's similar to waxing, only a thread is remove facial hair.

HAMID, BARBER CLIENT: They are removing hair there these places. They say cutting of this is only for ladies. Ladies can do that, but men cannot do that.

CHILCOTE: Until the attacks on barbers began last year killing at least 13 of them according to the police, Hamid had never heard anyone say the Koran frowned upon facial trimming.

HAMID: I don't think they are Islams. They are from somewhere else. Even they are not Iraqis. We have Iraqi. There is no such tradition at all.

CHILCOTE: Some barber shops are defying the pressure, threading is just too popular. Abdullah Usef is a fan of his goatee, also frowned upon by the extreme I wants and threading. He thinks those who are against the somewhat painful procedure should go to the barber more often.

ABDULLAH USEF, BARBER CLIENT (through translator): Whoever is against the use of thread must have real thick facial hair and gotten hurt by the barber's thread.

CHILCOTE: But no one is laughing back at Rabah's barber shop. They put up a sign.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE (through translator): Rabah was attacked because of the threading. That's why I have a sign that says we don't do trimming or threading.

CHILCOTE: They still thread when they're among friends. Islam, they say, is about being clean. They've never heard a religion that calls for the cutting down of barbers.

Ryan Chilcote, CNN, Baghdad.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

COOPER (voice-over): A baby born with deformities. The mother says teflon's to blame. But Dupont says, no way. Tonight, 360 investigates. A contaminated community, and the effects of what some are calling a silent killer.

And King Tut revealed. Scientists unveil models of the boy king, but is this really the real face of King Tut? 360 continues.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

COOPER: Chances are you have a nonstick frying fan your kitchen right now. The chances are it's made out of Teflon, a substance that is also used in clothing and cars, even in contact lenses. What you may not been Teflon, however, is that the company that makes it, Dupont, settled allegations by federal regulators for $15 million.

The EPA claimed Dupont failed to disclose health information for decades about a chemical used to create Teflon -- C-8, a chemical found in all of us -- and which some people living near Dupont plants believe causes birth defects.

CNN's David Mattingly looks into it.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: And that's why the nurses and the doctors, they had never seen anything like it.

MATTINGLY (on camera): You said you were afraid to hold him.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I was.

MATTINGLY: Why? UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I was afraid he was going to die in my arms.

MATTINGLY (voice-over): When doctors told Sue Bailey that her son Bucky, born with severe facial deformities wouldn't live through the night, she knew in her heart they were wrong. What she didn't know was that it was the beginning of a childhood filled with pain. And a lifetime filled with questions about a substance used in making products found in millions of American homes.

SUE BAILEY, FORMER DUPONT WORKER: I know what happened. It was the C-8. It was the exposure to C-8. I will never believe anything else.

MATTINGLY: C-8, or PFOA for perfluorooctanoic acid has been used since the 1950's in the manufacturing of the non-stick coating best known by the Dupont trademark Teflon. But that same substance, first used in pots and pans, today also provide protection in stain- resistant clothing and carpet, and it is the coating on countless miles of wiring and cable, the conduits of the information age.

Teflon is manufactured in Parkersburg, West Virginia, on the Ohio River at the Dupont Washington Works Plant, where a pregnant Sue Bailey was employed handling waste water. She worked at Dupont until 1986.

(on camera): At what point in his life did you start to suspect your work at the plant had something to do with this?

SUE BAILEY, FORMER DUPONT WORKER: The doctor at the plant kept calling, kept calling. And I called. And I said, what is so important about this? And he said, because anytime that there's a baby born with a birth defect, we have to report it.

MATTINGLY (voice-over): The company says there's no link between Buckey's birth defects and C-8. Twenty-four years ago, Dupont temporarily removed female employees from areas where C-8 was being used. They returned when company's studies determined there was no link between C-8 and birth defects.

Additional studies by Dupont scientists, according to company officials, have also shown no connection between C-8 and cancer, or C- 8 and heart disease.

FRANCINE SHAW, VP, CORPORATE OPERATIONS, DUPONT: The information we do have is very reassuring. And we have just recently completed an employee health study at our Washington Works Plant, which is our largest manufacturing facility in the world. We studied over 1,000 people in this process, and the great news was that these are healthy people.

MELINDA MCDOWELL, RESIDENT: Do we have water, dear?

MATTINGLY: But the Dupont finds provided little comfort to people living down river. In Little Hawking, Ohio, bottled water sales at the corner's store are brisk, because municipal water supplies are contaminated with C-8.

The McDowell family is among those heeding the official warning from the water company last June. It read: "C-8 may pose serious health risks." It was punctuated by the chilling words, "you are using this water at your own risk."

(on camera): So you're even afraid to touch the water.

MCDOWELL: Oh, yes. Afraid. You want to wash your face? You know. Do you want to wash it with that stuff? You know, to me, I see poison. I'm thinking, you know, I wonder if it had a color, how much color would be there?

MATTINGLY (voice-over): Without admit wrongdoing, Dupont recently agreed to a court settlement, to construct a filtering system to remove C-8 from wells in several municipalities, including Little Hawking. Dupont will also pay for an independent medical study of the tens of thousands of customers who'd been drinking the contaminated water.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I don't want to be part of this experiment. I just don't. But here we are.

MCDOWELL: If somebody came up to you and said I will give you $1,000 for you to be part of this experiment, I don't know what it will do to you. It may do nothing to you, but it may hurt you. It may hurt your children. You know, how many people would say, yeah, that's a good thing?

MATTINGLY: And in some ways, we may all be part of the experiment. There are studies showing 96 percent of the world's population has some traces of C-8 or PFOA in the bloodstream.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We really don't know whether that's due to an increase of cell number or some other mechanism.

MATTINGLY: Certain studies show a potential risk for developmental problems and cancers in animals, but there is substantial uncertainty about just what risk that may suggest for humans.

Without a significant body of evidence showing C-8 causes harm to people, there's never been a law limiting how much C-8 can be released into the environment. But according to independent scientists recently convened by the EPA, one thing is now clear: Once C-8 is in the environment, it doesn't go away.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: It's a persistent chemical. We don't know of any way that PFOA can break down in the environment, which means you need to be cautious with environmental releases of the material. It accumulates in living organisms, which means that it builds up to higher levels than what you would find in the environment, and it causes a number of adverse effects.

MATTINGLY (on camera): Is it accurate it say it's been going into the Ohio River for 50 years from that plant? SHAW: We use PFOA in our manufacturing processes, and the materials that we make with PFOA make the world a safer place.

MATTINGLY (voice-over): Dupont officials choose their words carefully when questioned about C-8 discharges in West Virginia, where work is under way to drastically reduce the plant's C-8 emissions.

SHAW: We recognize that there are still questions. And we are actively at the table working with EPA, regulatory agencies. We want to be part of the solution. Scientific community, the technological world, we're at the table, trying to answer those questions where they're unknown (ph).

BUCKY BAILEY, SUE BAILEY'S SON: They're such a company that cares so much about the community and they care so much about helping the community and giving back to the community, but yet with all this, it takes so much to get them to admit anything to admit any possible effect that this could have. And I just want to know why.

MATTINGLY: But independent scientific answers to these and other C-8-related questions are elusive.

Now 25 years old, Bucky Bailey has had more than 30 surgeries to correct deformities to his nose and right eye. He and his mother remain convinced C-8 is to blame, while Dupont continues to deny any connection.

David Mattingly, CNN, Little Hawking, Ohio.

COOPER: And coming up next on 360, "CSI" -- real or just fiction? 360 MD Sanjay Gupta looks at whether the popular TV series is true to life.

Also tonight, King Tut's face revealed, and the mystery on how he died may be solved. But is this really what King Tut looked like?

And a little later, CNN celebrating 25 years. A hot topic this week on "Jeopardy." Being a "Jeopardy" champion -- and don't like to brag -- I got some game tips to pass along.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

COOPER: So the season finale of "CSI" airs next week. And considering it was directed by Quentin Tarantino, I have a hunch the crime scenes are going to be a bit messier than usual -- and they're usually pretty messy anyway.

The "Pulp Fiction" filmmaker is a huge fan of the show. He is certainly not alone. Part of the appeal of the entire "CSI" series is its authenticity. It feels real. The question is, how real is it really? 360 MD Sanjay Gupta investigates.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE) SANJAY GUPTA, CNN SR. MEDICAL CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): Each week, another murder, another investigation. The bodies are brought here, to the "CSI: Miami" autopsy theater, where all the equipment is state-of-the-art. Stuff you'd be hard-pressed to find even in a well- equipped hospital.

Khandi Alexander plays medical examiner Alexx Woods on "CSI: Miami."

KHANDI ALEXANDER, "DR. ALEXX WOODS": This is a real autopsy table. This is real. This is where the organs go. Up here, is where students will come and watch an autopsy. And here, of course, you know, where we keep our dead bodies. You know? All of this stuff is real in here.

GUPTA (on camera): I heard the special effects are just incredible for you even when you are standing right here. What's that like?

ALEXANDER: It's really wonderful, because all of the organs are made out of silicone. So they're the exact texture and weight of a real organ. So when you're cutting with the scalpel or removing brain or matter, it feels real. So as an actor, that just lends to your performance.

I love the blood.

GUPTA: We got our take. She loves the blood.

ALEXANDER: I love the blood. That's my favorite.

GUPTA (voice-over): Liz Devine is the supervising producer. Before going Hollywood, she spent 15 years as a criminalist with the L.A. County Sheriff's Department.

(on camera): Your role is to make sure everyone gets it right, but are you sort of, you know, do you give leniencies, you say, it's OK, you can do it like this because it makes better television?

ELIZABETH DEVINE, SUPERVISING PRODUCER, "CSI: MIAMI": In DNA, everybody has masks on, gloves on, lab coats. We forego masks when we have our characters in here, because realistically it's very difficult to understand what someone is saying if you can't see their lips. So -- and frankly, you know, people want to see Emily Procter's face.

GUPTA: Devine works closely with an old friend. John Haynes, a former L.A. police detective, who was the model for Horatio Caine, David Caruso's character.

Haynes' police career ended after a bomb blew up in his hands. They drew on his bomb squad days for the episode "Freaks and Tweaks."

DEVINE: This is based on the case that John and I actually worked, where we were at a crime scene and we were actually searching a vehicle and found a bomb, and literally had to evacuate. And so we decided to make that the beginning of an episode, of a murder in a methamphetamine lab.

And anywhere you have methamphetamine, you have chemicals, and anyplace you have volatile chemicals, obviously you could have an explosion or a fire.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Run!

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Everybody, run!

GUPTA: For Liz Devine and John Haynes, brain-storming and mining memories together is proving to be a good second act.

(on camera): Ever think that you would be doing this sort of work here?

JOHN HAYNES, FORMER LAPD DETECTIVE: Never. Never. Not in a million years.

GUPTA: Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN, Atlanta.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

COOPER: You can catch more of Dr. Sanjay Gupta's report Sunday night on CNN. "Anatomy of Murder" takes us inside the world of criminal forensic science, both on TV and in real life. It is Sunday, 10:00 Eastern, only on CNN.

Sophia Choi from HEADLINE NEWS joins us with the latest at about a quarter to the hour -- Sophia.

CHOI: Hi there, Anderson.

A deadly revolt in a former Soviet republic as soldiers opened fire on demonstrators. Clashes erupted in Andijan, Uzbekistan, after some protesters broke into a prison and freed inmates they believed were wrongly being held. At least nine people were killed, although witnesses say dozens may have died.

At the Vatican, Pope Benedict XVI has put his predecessor on the fast track to sainthood today. Benedict announced that he is waiving the five-year waiting period to begin beatification procedures for Pope John Paul II, who died last month. John Paul actually set the precedent himself when he waved the waiting period for Mother Teresa a year after her death in 1997.

In New York City, cleanup crews will work through the weekend to clear debris that spilled on a parkway after a retaining wall collapsed. No one was injured, and Mayor Michael Bloomberg today predicted a fairly normal commute on the roadway next week.

And doctors in Florida believe last year's hurricanes have spun a mini baby boom. Health officials say the number of expectant mothers has grown dramatically, with the larger than usual of babies due this month and in June, just nine months after four hurricanes hit the state, leaving many couples stuck at home with no electricity and looking for something to do. And why not? What better way to pass the time, right, Anderson?

COOPER: I don't know what you are implying. I have no idea what you're talking about.

CHOI: Exactly. We're all innocent.

COOPER: All right, thanks very much, Sophia. See you again in about 30 minutes.

Coming up next on 360, a new look at King Tut. His features no longer under wraps. Wait until you see what scientists have discovered. The question is, is this really what King Tut looked like?

Also tonight, "Jeopardy" helps celebrate CNN's 25th anniversary. As a former "Jeopardy" champion, I got a couple of tips for you.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

COOPER: In tonight's "Weekender," cracking the mystery surrounding a young Egyptian king. On Sunday, the National Geographic Channel is going to air a special on King Tut, showcasing a new theory as to what caused his early death some 3,300 years ago. It has been one of the most popular stories on cnn.com this week. Rudi Bakhtiar is here to tell us how they figured it all out -- Rudi.

RUDI BAKHTIAR, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Anderson, we heard about the new theory earlier this week as scientists gave us that first glimpse of what the young king may have looked like.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

BAKHTIAR (voice-over): In Egypt, nestled in the Valley of the Kings is arguably the most famous tomb in the world, the tomb of King Tutankhamen, or King Tut. And buried with him are the secrets of his life and death.

He became king when he was just 9 years old. Revered as half- man, half-God, ruling Egypt for almost a decade until he died at the age of 19. He was laid to rest over 3,000 years ago, virtually unknown to history until 1922, when an English archaeologist named Howard Carter made a discovery.

CHRIS JOHNS, EDITOR, NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC: They went into the burial chamber, and here are 3,000 antiquities in there, gold everywhere. An incredible sarcophagus. I mean, can you imagine this? Then you find Tut.

BAKHTIAR: And with that discovery, a mystifying legend was born. Chris Johns is the editor in chief of "National Geographic" magazine. They sent a team of scientists to Tut's tomb, armed with a CAT scan machine and cameras, determined to solve the mystery surrounding the boy king, particularly the legend of his assassination.

JOHNS: One of the long-held theories was that he had been struck in the back of the head. That somehow it had been a palace coup possibly. No one knew for sure.

BAKHTIAR: The first step of knowing for sure was carefully extracting Tut who was encased this a solid gold coffin weighing almost 250 pounds. And then the scans, 3D images revealing ailments from the mysterious, like these severed ribs to the mundane and impacted wisdom tooth. But they say, no evidence of murder. Rather it's this fracture in his left leg that most likely caused Tut's untimely death, from a war injury perhaps. The scientists believe that King Tut most likely died from an infection within five days of breaking his leg.

JOHNS: It was not a murder. He was not killed by a blow to the back of the head.

BAKHTIAR: The 3D imagery also provides a map of Tut's skull. The first glimpse of what we may have looked like. Working off the scans, artists complete the picture. And elongated egg-shaped head, a narrow face, and a small cleft pallet. Standing just 5'6" tall, he hadn't finished growing. Egypt's most famous king was barely even a man.

JOHNS: Giving Tut a face, puts a face on history. Every human being wishes, I think that at some point in their life at least, that they were immortal and I think Tut's an example of that.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

And you can watch the entire documentary about King Tut this Sunday on the National Geographic Channel or you can read about this amazing process in the June issue of "National Geographic" magazine. Will you be watching?

COOPER: I will actually. And I'm fascinated. Thanks very much.

BAHKTIAR: Well, enjoy.

COOPER: Rudi Bakhtiar thanks very much.

Lets find out what is coming up at top the hour on "PAULA ZAHN NOW."

Hey, Paula.

PAULA ZAHN, HOST, PAULA ZAHN NOW: So, Anderson, I thought you'd be watching "CNN Presents" at that hour? Or are you going to TiVo the National Geographics.

COOPER: Exactly, I've got serval TiVo's going at once in my house. Yes.

ZAHN: Yes. We're very agile on ours with that as well. Thanks, Anderson.

COOPER: At the top hour, the making of a terrorists. We're going to take you to the back streets in the Middle East and follow the very twisted path that turned Abu Musab al-Zarqawi into the radical leader of Iraq's bloody insurgency. Unbelievably, he was actually in prison once and was set free as a goodwill gesture. There are lots of parts of this story, Anderson, as much as any of us have read about this guy that seem almost brand new. So, we hope you all join us at the top of the hour.

COOPER: Definitely. It's about seven minutes from now. Thanks very much, Paula.

Coming up next on 360, who is the "Jeopardy" king? I know, I know, it's me! As the game show helps celebrate CNN's 25 anniversary, I've got is tips to pass along.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

COOPER: Ah, yes. The haunting refrain of the "Jeopardy" jingle. Written by Merv Griffin, did you know that?

You know, every time I hear it I have to stop myself from blurting out, I'll take Seamanship for 600 Alex.

As "Jeopardy" helps celebrate CNN's 25th anniversary with CNN categories all this week, I thought we'd all benefit from watching a -- well, a true quiz master at work. Last year, I played celebrity "Jeopardy" and they called it power players "Jeopardy" against Maria Bartiromo and Kweisi Mfume. And well, you know I don't like to brag, but let's just say I wiped up the floor with him.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

ALEX TREBEK, HOST, JEOPARDY: It's power player week on "Jeopardy."

COOPER (voice-over): I was pretty excited to be on "Jeopardy," even if it was one of those dumbed down celebrity editions.

TREBEK: Please welcome Anderson Cooper.

COOPER: OK, so he mispronounced my name. I didn't let that get to me.

TREBEK: Anderson, off you go.

COOPER: Right away, I wanted to let my opponents know I was here to play, I was here to win.

(on camera): What is equal.

TREBEK: Correct.

COOPER: What is Vietnam.

TREBEK: Yes.

COOPER: What is D-Day.

TREBEK: D-Day or Normandy, correct. COOPER: What is an aardvark.

TREBEK: That's it.

COOPER: What is Kwanzaa.

TREBEK: Right.

COOPER: Who is Aaron?

TREBEK: Aaron is the correct response. That takes you to 3,400.

COOPER: The trick is don't focus on the money, just try to read the answers fast, buzz in quick and hope your opponents choke big time.

(on camera): NAACP (ph) for 800.

TREBEK: Established in 1867, it's America's first fashion magazine.

Maria (ph).

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: What is "Vogue"?

TREBEK: No. Anderson.

COOPER: What is "Haper's Bazaar."

TREBEK: Remember, it must have those two A's in there.

COOPER (voice-over): Maybe if she'd watched "Jeopardy" more, she'd have got the whole two A thing. But hey, we all make mistakes.

(on camera): What is Baghdad.

TREBEK: No. No, idiot. You were thinking of the tigers.

COOPER: Yes, I'm an idiot.

TREBEK: No you're not.

COOPER: Lets see.

Who is afraid of Virginia -- what is who is afraid of Virginia Woolf.

TREBEK: No.

Maria or Kweisi?

What is "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof."

COOPER (voice-over): A big part of doing well is getting into a rhythm with that little buzzer. As long as you buzz in quickly, you can answer slowly. TREBEK: Anderson.

COOPER (on camera): What is Berlin?

TREBEK: Yes.

COOPER: Sorry.

TREBEK: That's all right.

COOPER: I'm just little slow there.

(voice-over): I don't know much about sports. But I do know how to play to a hometown crowd.

TREBEK: Serena was seen with Lavar Arrington, linebacker for this NFL team certain to draw cheers when you answer.

COOPER (on camera): What is the Washington Redskins.

TREBEK: That's right.

COOPER (voice-over): At this point in the game I was way in the lead, and my luck just kept getting better.

TREBEK: Daily Double and it's a video.

COOPER (on camera): Who is Maria Von Trapp.

TREBEK: That's it. Yes, indeed. Boy, you work that one, Anderson.

COOPER (voice-over): By Final "Jeopardy" I was way out in front, which was a good thing because I knew very little about the category.

TREBEK: Here is the category -- metals.

COOPER: I tried to concentrate, but in my head I kept humming along with that tune. In the end, I simply guessed, wrong.

TREBEK: Coltan.

COOPER: Yes, is that anything?

TREBEK: It's called gold. Gold is the correct response.

COOPER: Really?

TREBEK: Yes, isn't that amazing? You lost $1,000 only, but you're the leader and the winner today.

COOPER: Trebek called me a winner. I prefer the term "Jeopardy" champion. I was going to put it on my business cards, but I don't like to brag. Instead, I just have it on my stationary.

(END VIDEOTAPE) I only have it on -- on a little bit of my stationary, I should be honest about that.

I am Anderson Cooper, thanks very much for watching 360 this week. I hope you have a great weekend. CNN's prime time coverage continues right now with Paula Zahn.

And King Tut revealed. Scientists unveil models of the boy king, but is this really the real face of King Tut?

ANNOUNCER: Live from the CNN broadcast center in New York, this is ANDERSON COOPER 360.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

COOPER: And good evening again. Friday the 13th, it's supposed to be an unlucky day. We all know that. But we begin tonight with a piece of good luck and good news. The young girl in a notorious series of child porn pictures -- that's one of them -- a girl who was being sought by police for years from Toronto to Florida, has finally been located and she is safe. There is other news, too, in the case of her identification may have helped to break.

We turn now to our colleague David Mattingly in Atlanta for the latest details -- David.

DAVID MATTINGLY, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Anderson, authorities in Orlando are still sorting things out. But they now tell us that the girl that they launched a national manhunt for has been found and is safe and may have been safe for some time.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

MATTINGLY (voice-over): More than two years, countless man hours and unknown thousands of dollars in the making, the desperate international hunt for a single child pornography victim ends in the way investigators never predicted.

LT. MATT IRWIN, ORANGE COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT: We have located the victim in our case.

MATTINGLY: Orlando's Orange County investigators, after asking for the public's help in finding the blond-haired girl just two weeks ago, now confirms she's been identified by the FBI. And is believed to now be 11 years old and in a Pennsylvania foster home.

IRWIN: By saying we have identified her, I don't know where she's at. We are working on getting that information. And I understand that there may be ongoing charges in Pennsylvania, which is the state that the victim is from.

MATTINGLY: The girl will remain unidentified to the public. According to the FBI and Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, the man responsible for putting photos of the girl on the Internet is in prison serving a 15-year term. Neither his name nor further details of his case or conviction were disclosed by federal authorities.

But Orlando investigators say the man is the child's adopted father, and was sentenced to prison last year. The Florida authorities will now pursue molestation charges of their own.

IRWIN: In Florida, based on what we have, he would probably be facing life charges.

MATTINGLY: The international search for the girl began two years ago when Toronto authorities used computers to remove the girl from her pictures so clues could be pulled from the background. Investigators at that time said tiny pieces of evidence gave them hope they could find her.

DET. SGT. PAUL GILLESPIE, TORONTO POLICE: You can tell when children appear to be abused or when they are abused whether or not it's the first time or not. It's worse to see children who have just lost their spirit and they don't really react to abuse, because you know this is the cost of doing business in their own personal life and that says something.

MATTINGLY: This case immediately stood out from the 50,000 other estimated child porn victims on the Internet, because someone from the public was able to identify the bed spread in this photo as one used at a resort in Orlando. The victim quickly became known as "the Hotel Girl."

As authorities pushed the envelope in publicizing previously withheld information in hopes a break. They even publicized a photo of a dark-haired girl they believed was a friend of hers. Someone who was not molested.

But the extraordinary effort ultimately was not a factor. And they have been told that the girl may have been safe for a matter of years.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

MATTINGLY: While authorities in Florida get to the bottom of why the FBI was only able to tell them about this within of the last 24 hours, they are quick to point out that there may be no true happy ending for this poor girl who is now 11 years old. Because her photographs are out on the Internet, they are everywhere, and they may be everywhere for the rest of her life -- Anderson.

COOPER: David Mattingly, very disturbing stuff. We'll continue to follow it. Thanks, David.

Here's a truly shocking figure. According to the Department of Health and Human Services, in 2002 -- and that's the most current year for which the agency has these statistics -- almost 90,000 children were sexually abused. Now, clearly this is a huge problem, continues to be. And anything that can be done to help parents keep their kids safe is worth passing on.

We had a conversation on the subject earlier with John Walsh, who is certainly one of the country's best known child safety advocates, and his partner in a new DVD, Julie Clark of the Baby Einstein Series.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

COOPER: In the past, a lot of kids are taught to be scared of strangers and to pay attention to strangers. But when you look at the statistic, I mean, a lot of kids who get attacked, taken or molested, their attackers known to them.

JOHN WALSH, AMERICA'S MOST WANTED: You are right. In a lot of cases, it is someone that they know. You know, you ask a child who is a stranger, and they go, do you meantime garbage man that I see every week, is he a stranger? Or the soccer coach that I see once a week? I sort of know him but I don't. So it's very hard to differentiate. And that's what this is all about.

COOPER: Yes. In this video, you try to make that differentiation. Let's see a clip here.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: People who are not your safe-side adults are called kind of knows. Even I'm a kinda know. In fact, the following people are kinda know, you just kinda know them. Ready? Your doctor, your dentist, your teacher, your mom's boss, your dad's boss, anybody who works with your mom and dad, your babysitter, you soccer coach, your basketball coach, your gymnastics teacher, your guitar teacher, your drum teacher and the guy who...

COOPER: So how does it help kids to know that are there people who are just kinda knows? JULIE CLARK, CREATOR, "BABY EINSTEIN": Well, I think what's important is that kids understand that somebody who can hurt you is somebody who you might know. And so it's really important for kids to understand that who their safe side adults are. We call them safe side adults. People that you can always trust and that you can always go to.

COOPER: We recently found this video a defrocked Roman Catholic Priest Oliver O'Grady, videotaped a deposition in which police ask him to demonstrate his routine that he would sort of speak to lure kids in. Let's take a look.

OLIVER O'GRADY, FORMER CATHOLIC PRIEST: Hi, Sallie. How are you doing? Come here, I want to give you a hug. You're a sweetheart, you know that. Very special to me. I like you a lot.

She may respond, I like you, too.

And that would allow me to give her a better hug to you.

COOPER: I mean, let's ignore the fact this guy was a priest. It's just so creepy to hear him actually kind of spell it out like that. And even his face.

WALSH: They're good at it. I mean, this is what people it's misconception that it's the guy under the bridge with the trenchcoat that exposes himself. I mean, 4,000 priests have been accused or convict of being pedophiles.

They -- I have been tracking them for years, 20 years now. They really know the ways to manipulate kids. They're nonthreatening. They have all of the ploys and they're so much better at it.

And I think people have to realize, as Julie just said, whether they're a stranger pedophile or someone that they know, they're really good at manipulating children.

COOPER: And John, what are the top three mistakes that you find parents make when thinking about child safety?

WALSH: Well, first of all, assuming it couldn't happen to them. I mean, people think, well, I live in Beverly Hills, or I live in -- out in the Hamptons, it couldn't happen to me.

Number two, that they don't open the lines of communication with their children. It's something they don't know how to talk to their children about. Or they won't broach it, or they will say it in such simplistic terms, don't take candy from a stranger. And the kid will go, what do you mean? Who's the stranger? What do you mean don't take candy from them? And they don't reinforce it continually. There has to be repeat reinforcement.

COOPER: Well, in the video, you also talk about hot tips for kids. What are the top three.

CLARK: Probably the top three, we say, know who your three safe side adults are. Know three people that you can always go to. That your mom, or your safe side adult says that you can always be with, and always go to if you need help.

Another one is don't let anyone inside of your safe side circle. If somebody's getting too close to you, if somebody is making you feel uncomfortable, you need to know that, you need to get away. You need to get out of that situation. And that children are empowered to do that. Children are able to do that. And we need to let them than they can do that.

And another good one is don't give out information. Don't talk to people you don't know unless you're with your safe side adult, unless you're with somebody that says it's OK for you to do so.

COOPER: All right. Well, John Walsh, Julie Clark, thanks very much. It's a great video.

CLARK: Thank you.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

COOPER: Coming up next on 360, the mystery finger identified. The origins of the digit that almost did Wendy's in. It has been revealed by police. We'll tell you who's it is, and how it got in that chili.

Also, could your pots and pans be making your sick? Allegations that a main ingredient in Teflon causes birth defects. We'll look into that.

And later, something for you take into the weekend Jeopardy tips from a champion. And yeah, I'm talking about me.

First, your picks though, of the most popular stories on CNN.com right now.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

JAY LENO, THE TONIGHT SHOW: This woman cost the Wendy's restaurant over $2.5 million. You know what they should do with this women before they send her to prison? They should put the finger back in the chili and make her finish it. OK.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

COOPER: Ugh. It's a case that late-night comedians cannot ignore, still can't. If not one of the -- if not one of America's great unsolved mystery, perhaps one of America's most bizarre unsolved mysteries. That finger in the bowl of Wendy's chili has apparently been solved. Police in San Jose, California, announced today that they believe they have figured out just where the mystery fingertip came from. Find out.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE) COOPER (voice-over): After nearly two months of investigating San Jose, California police say, they've gotten to the bottom of the fingertip in the chili bowl conundrum.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: The jig is up. The puzzle pieces are beginning to fall into place, and the truth is beginning to be exposed.

COOPER: The bizarre mystery began in late March when a Las Vegas woman, Anna Ayala, claimed she had found a human finger in the bowl of Chili she bought at a San Jose Wendy's. The alleged discovery sent Wendy's into an alleged tailspin. As sales dropped, all efforts were dropped to discovering just exactly where the finger came from. Workers at the restaurant were checked to make sure they had all their fingers. Lie detector test were given, and a tip line was setup and a $100,000 reward offered.

Within a month, investigators had determined that the finger in the chili was a hoax. Ayala was arrested.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We feel that we have been victimized and we're hoping that our customers will recognize that. Will understand that we're vindicated and they will come back our restaurants.

COOPER: But the mystery remained. Just who could have lost a part of a finger and not missed it. Finally, detective work and the tip line paid off.

CHIEF ROB DAVIS, SAN JOSE, CALIFORNIA POLICE: On Wednesday, May the 4th, San Jose Police Department detectives received a lead from the Wendy's reward hot line concerning a Nevada resident who may have been the person whose fingertip was allegedly found in a bowl of chili in San Jose on March 22nd. San Jose P.D. detectives were already in Nevada following up leads on May 4, and they contacted the individual in question. It was determined that he lost a portion of his finger in an industrial accident in December of last year. And that he is an associate of James Placencia (ph), the husband of Anna Ayala, the woman being the person who claimed to have found the fingertip in the bowl of chili.

On May 11th and 12th, scientific testing positively confirmed that this subject was in fact the source of the fingertip.

COOPER: Ayala who was arrested April 21st after it was determined she lied about the incident was extradited last Friday from Nevada to San Jose to face a charge of grand theft relating to the hoax.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

COOPER: And police say the man with the missing finger is cooperating with them. Got a lot of other news to tell you about.

Sophia Choi from Headline News joins us with the latest at about a quarter past the hour -- Sophia.

SOPHIA CHOI, HEADLINE NEWS: Hi, Anderson.

Thirty-three military bases on the Pentagon for closure. Another 29 are slated for cutbacks. Military bases in all 50 state are named in the 28-page report, 28,000 military and civilian jobs would be cut. The Pentagon says the closures will save $48 billion over 20 years, but it's not a done deal yet. The list must get approval from the commission, White House, and Congress.

In Gaza, anger aimed at the U.S. Hamas staged this protest in response to a "Newsweek" magazine report alleging desecration of the Muslim's holy book of the Koran at Guantanamo Bay Prison in Cuba. The Pentagon is investigating the allegation.

The first protest broke out in Afghanistan. Other demonstrations have been held in Pakistan and in Indonesia.

In Santa Maria, California, Michael Jackson's former lawyer takes the stand. Mark Geragos told jurors he hired a detective to track Jackson's accusers and his family. Geragos said he as gravely concerned they might be scheming to get money from the pop star. Jackson is on trial for allegedly molesting a 13-year-old boy.

And on this Friday the 13th, a little nugget of info for you. According to the Stress management Center and Phobia Institute, an estimated $800 million is lost in business in the U.S. on Friday the 13th because people are afraid to travel or do normal business. The good news here, the next Friday the 13th, won't be until January 2006.

Do you believe in that stuff, Anderson?

COOPER: No, I don't. I like the name, phobia institute. The phobia institute.

CHOI: Oh, yes.

COOPER: You know what they call it, it is paraskevidekatriaphobia.

CHOI: You know what, that word makes me scared.

COOPER: Really, interesting. We'll talk about that in about a half an hour. Thanks, Sophia. See you again in about 30 minutes. Coming up next on 360, the state of emergency extended in Iraq. More than 400 dead in a recent wave violence. Tonight, though, we're focusing on barbers. Barbers are being targeted by terrorists. We'll tell you why ahead.

Also tonight, separating fact from fiction. One of TV's most popular shows. Not this one, of course, I'm talking about "CSI."

360 M.D. Sanjay Gupta goes behind the camera lens.

And a little later, could the main ingredient in teflon make you sick, even causing birth defects? Some people are saying that. We'll look into it. All the angles coming up next.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

COOPER: We've been closely following the brutal killings in Iraq. Two weeks of stepped up insurgent attacks have left some 400 people dead. Now, the country's new prime minister is taking an extra precaution. He's extending Iraq's state of emergency for another 30 days essentially keeping it under marshal law.

U.S. military also has been busy fighting insurgents near the Syrian border through Operation Matador. Marines there say they are moving through the region without much resistance, which means insurgents are either hiding or on the run.

Now when attacks happen, they are often aimed at U.S. force and Iraqi police. We have seen that over and over. But there are also other lives at risk. And surprisingly, one major target are Baghdad's barbers. The world in 360 tonight from CNN's Ryan Chilcote.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

RYAN CHILCOTE, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): The empty chair in this Baghdad barber shop is an ominous reminder, a warning that even the most mundane task can get you killed. Terrorists tried to execute Rabah for simply cutting hair.

RABAH, BARBER VICTIM (through translator): I was standing out in front of the barber shop when they pointed the gun at my mouth and shot me. The bullet went in my mouth and broke my jaw. Then my left leg was shot five times breaking it.

CHILCOTE: Rabah has been in too much pain to go back to work since he was attacked five months ago. Never in his 21 years as a barber has feeding his family of 13 worried him so much.

(on camera): Barbers throughout Iraq are being targeted by extremists who adhere it a strict interpretation of the Koran that forbids men from trimming their facial hair.

(voice-over): The extremists particularly loathe the practice of threading. Popular in the Middle East and South Asia. It's similar to waxing, only a thread is remove facial hair.

HAMID, BARBER CLIENT: They are removing hair there these places. They say cutting of this is only for ladies. Ladies can do that, but men cannot do that.

CHILCOTE: Until the attacks on barbers began last year killing at least 13 of them according to the police, Hamid had never heard anyone say the Koran frowned upon facial trimming.

HAMID: I don't think they are Islams. They are from somewhere else. Even they are not Iraqis. We have Iraqi. There is no such tradition at all.

CHILCOTE: Some barber shops are defying the pressure, threading is just too popular. Abdullah Usef is a fan of his goatee, also frowned upon by the extreme I wants and threading. He thinks those who are against the somewhat painful procedure should go to the barber more often.

ABDULLAH USEF, BARBER CLIENT (through translator): Whoever is against the use of thread must have real thick facial hair and gotten hurt by the barber's thread.

CHILCOTE: But no one is laughing back at Rabah's barber shop. They put up a sign.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE (through translator): Rabah was attacked because of the threading. That's why I have a sign that says we don't do trimming or threading.

CHILCOTE: They still thread when they're among friends. Islam, they say, is about being clean. They've never heard a religion that calls for the cutting down of barbers.

Ryan Chilcote, CNN, Baghdad.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

COOPER (voice-over): A baby born with deformities. The mother says teflon's to blame. But Dupont says, no way. Tonight, 360 investigates. A contaminated community, and the effects of what some are calling a silent killer.

And King Tut revealed. Scientists unveil models of the boy king, but is this really the real face of King Tut? 360 continues.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

COOPER: Chances are you have a nonstick frying fan your kitchen right now. The chances are it's made out of Teflon, a substance that is also used in clothing and cars, even in contact lenses. What you may not been Teflon, however, is that the company that makes it, Dupont, settled allegations by federal regulators for $15 million.

The EPA claimed Dupont failed to disclose health information for decades about a chemical used to create Teflon -- C-8, a chemical found in all of us -- and which some people living near Dupont plants believe causes birth defects.

CNN's David Mattingly looks into it.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: And that's why the nurses and the doctors, they had never seen anything like it.

MATTINGLY (on camera): You said you were afraid to hold him.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I was.

MATTINGLY: Why? UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I was afraid he was going to die in my arms.

MATTINGLY (voice-over): When doctors told Sue Bailey that her son Bucky, born with severe facial deformities wouldn't live through the night, she knew in her heart they were wrong. What she didn't know was that it was the beginning of a childhood filled with pain. And a lifetime filled with questions about a substance used in making products found in millions of American homes.

SUE BAILEY, FORMER DUPONT WORKER: I know what happened. It was the C-8. It was the exposure to C-8. I will never believe anything else.

MATTINGLY: C-8, or PFOA for perfluorooctanoic acid has been used since the 1950's in the manufacturing of the non-stick coating best known by the Dupont trademark Teflon. But that same substance, first used in pots and pans, today also provide protection in stain- resistant clothing and carpet, and it is the coating on countless miles of wiring and cable, the conduits of the information age.

Teflon is manufactured in Parkersburg, West Virginia, on the Ohio River at the Dupont Washington Works Plant, where a pregnant Sue Bailey was employed handling waste water. She worked at Dupont until 1986.

(on camera): At what point in his life did you start to suspect your work at the plant had something to do with this?

SUE BAILEY, FORMER DUPONT WORKER: The doctor at the plant kept calling, kept calling. And I called. And I said, what is so important about this? And he said, because anytime that there's a baby born with a birth defect, we have to report it.

MATTINGLY (voice-over): The company says there's no link between Buckey's birth defects and C-8. Twenty-four years ago, Dupont temporarily removed female employees from areas where C-8 was being used. They returned when company's studies determined there was no link between C-8 and birth defects.

Additional studies by Dupont scientists, according to company officials, have also shown no connection between C-8 and cancer, or C- 8 and heart disease.

FRANCINE SHAW, VP, CORPORATE OPERATIONS, DUPONT: The information we do have is very reassuring. And we have just recently completed an employee health study at our Washington Works Plant, which is our largest manufacturing facility in the world. We studied over 1,000 people in this process, and the great news was that these are healthy people.

MELINDA MCDOWELL, RESIDENT: Do we have water, dear?

MATTINGLY: But the Dupont finds provided little comfort to people living down river. In Little Hawking, Ohio, bottled water sales at the corner's store are brisk, because municipal water supplies are contaminated with C-8.

The McDowell family is among those heeding the official warning from the water company last June. It read: "C-8 may pose serious health risks." It was punctuated by the chilling words, "you are using this water at your own risk."

(on camera): So you're even afraid to touch the water.

MCDOWELL: Oh, yes. Afraid. You want to wash your face? You know. Do you want to wash it with that stuff? You know, to me, I see poison. I'm thinking, you know, I wonder if it had a color, how much color would be there?

MATTINGLY (voice-over): Without admit wrongdoing, Dupont recently agreed to a court settlement, to construct a filtering system to remove C-8 from wells in several municipalities, including Little Hawking. Dupont will also pay for an independent medical study of the tens of thousands of customers who'd been drinking the contaminated water.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I don't want to be part of this experiment. I just don't. But here we are.

MCDOWELL: If somebody came up to you and said I will give you $1,000 for you to be part of this experiment, I don't know what it will do to you. It may do nothing to you, but it may hurt you. It may hurt your children. You know, how many people would say, yeah, that's a good thing?

MATTINGLY: And in some ways, we may all be part of the experiment. There are studies showing 96 percent of the world's population has some traces of C-8 or PFOA in the bloodstream.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We really don't know whether that's due to an increase of cell number or some other mechanism.

MATTINGLY: Certain studies show a potential risk for developmental problems and cancers in animals, but there is substantial uncertainty about just what risk that may suggest for humans.

Without a significant body of evidence showing C-8 causes harm to people, there's never been a law limiting how much C-8 can be released into the environment. But according to independent scientists recently convened by the EPA, one thing is now clear: Once C-8 is in the environment, it doesn't go away.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: It's a persistent chemical. We don't know of any way that PFOA can break down in the environment, which means you need to be cautious with environmental releases of the material. It accumulates in living organisms, which means that it builds up to higher levels than what you would find in the environment, and it causes a number of adverse effects.

MATTINGLY (on camera): Is it accurate it say it's been going into the Ohio River for 50 years from that plant? SHAW: We use PFOA in our manufacturing processes, and the materials that we make with PFOA make the world a safer place.

MATTINGLY (voice-over): Dupont officials choose their words carefully when questioned about C-8 discharges in West Virginia, where work is under way to drastically reduce the plant's C-8 emissions.

SHAW: We recognize that there are still questions. And we are actively at the table working with EPA, regulatory agencies. We want to be part of the solution. Scientific community, the technological world, we're at the table, trying to answer those questions where they're unknown (ph).

BUCKY BAILEY, SUE BAILEY'S SON: They're such a company that cares so much about the community and they care so much about helping the community and giving back to the community, but yet with all this, it takes so much to get them to admit anything to admit any possible effect that this could have. And I just want to know why.

MATTINGLY: But independent scientific answers to these and other C-8-related questions are elusive.

Now 25 years old, Bucky Bailey has had more than 30 surgeries to correct deformities to his nose and right eye. He and his mother remain convinced C-8 is to blame, while Dupont continues to deny any connection.

COOPER: And coming up next on 360, "CSI" -- real or just fiction? 360 MD Sanjay Gupta looks at whether the popular TV series is true to life.

Also tonight, King Tut's face revealed, and the mystery on how he died may be solved. But is this really what King Tut looked like?

And a little later, CNN celebrating 25 years. A hot topic this week on "Jeopardy." Being a "Jeopardy" champion -- and don't like to brag -- I got some game tips to pass along.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

COOPER: So the season finale of "CSI" airs next week. And considering it was directed by Quentin Tarantino, I have a hunch the crime scenes are going to be a bit messier than usual -- and they're usually pretty messy anyway.

The "Pulp Fiction" filmmaker is a huge fan of the show. He is certainly not alone. Part of the appeal of the entire "CSI" series is its authenticity. It feels real. The question is, how real is it really? 360 MD Sanjay Gupta investigates.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE) SANJAY GUPTA, CNN SR. MEDICAL CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): Each week, another murder, another investigation. The bodies are brought here, to the "CSI: Miami" autopsy theater, where all the equipment is state-of-the-art. Stuff you'd be hard-pressed to find even in a well- equipped hospital.

Khandi Alexander plays medical examiner Alexx Woods on "CSI: Miami."

KHANDI ALEXANDER, "DR. ALEXX WOODS": This is a real autopsy table. This is real. This is where the organs go. Up here, is where students will come and watch an autopsy. And here, of course, you know, where we keep our dead bodies. You know? All of this stuff is real in here.

GUPTA (on camera): I heard the special effects are just incredible for you even when you are standing right here. What's that like?

ALEXANDER: It's really wonderful, because all of the organs are made out of silicone. So they're the exact texture and weight of a real organ. So when you're cutting with the scalpel or removing brain or matter, it feels real. So as an actor, that just lends to your performance.

I love the blood.

GUPTA: We got our take. She loves the blood.

ALEXANDER: I love the blood. That's my favorite.

GUPTA (voice-over): Liz Devine is the supervising producer. Before going Hollywood, she spent 15 years as a criminalist with the L.A. County Sheriff's Department.

(on camera): Your role is to make sure everyone gets it right, but are you sort of, you know, do you give leniencies, you say, it's OK, you can do it like this because it makes better television?

ELIZABETH DEVINE, SUPERVISING PRODUCER, "CSI: MIAMI": In DNA, everybody has masks on, gloves on, lab coats. We forego masks when we have our characters in here, because realistically it's very difficult to understand what someone is saying if you can't see their lips. So -- and frankly, you know, people want to see Emily Procter's face.

GUPTA: Devine works closely with an old friend. John Haynes, a former L.A. police detective, who was the model for Horatio Caine, David Caruso's character.

Haynes' police career ended after a bomb blew up in his hands. They drew on his bomb squad days for the episode "Freaks and Tweaks."

DEVINE: This is based on the case that John and I actually worked, where we were at a crime scene and we were actually searching a vehicle and found a bomb, and literally had to evacuate. And so we decided to make that the beginning of an episode, of a murder in a methamphetamine lab.

And anywhere you have methamphetamine, you have chemicals, and anyplace you have volatile chemicals, obviously you could have an explosion or a fire.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Run!

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Everybody, run!

GUPTA: For Liz Devine and John Haynes, brain-storming and mining memories together is proving to be a good second act.

(on camera): Ever think that you would be doing this sort of work here?

JOHN HAYNES, FORMER LAPD DETECTIVE: Never. Never. Not in a million years.

GUPTA: Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN, Atlanta.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

COOPER: You can catch more of Dr. Sanjay Gupta's report Sunday night on CNN. "Anatomy of Murder" takes us inside the world of criminal forensic science, both on TV and in real life. It is Sunday, 10:00 Eastern, only on CNN.

Sophia Choi from HEADLINE NEWS joins us with the latest at about a quarter to the hour -- Sophia.

CHOI: Hi there, Anderson.

A deadly revolt in a former Soviet republic as soldiers opened fire on demonstrators. Clashes erupted in Andijan, Uzbekistan, after some protesters broke into a prison and freed inmates they believed were wrongly being held. At least nine people were killed, although witnesses say dozens may have died.

At the Vatican, Pope Benedict XVI has put his predecessor on the fast track to sainthood today. Benedict announced that he is waiving the five-year waiting period to begin beatification procedures for Pope John Paul II, who died last month. John Paul actually set the precedent himself when he waved the waiting period for Mother Teresa a year after her death in 1997.

In New York City, cleanup crews will work through the weekend to clear debris that spilled on a parkway after a retaining wall collapsed. No one was injured, and Mayor Michael Bloomberg today predicted a fairly normal commute on the roadway next week.

And doctors in Florida believe last year's hurricanes have spun a mini baby boom. Health officials say the number of expectant mothers has grown dramatically, with the larger than usual of babies due this month and in June, just nine months after four hurricanes hit the state, leaving many couples stuck at home with no electricity and looking for something to do. And why not? What better way to pass the time, right, Anderson?

COOPER: I don't know what you are implying. I have no idea what you're talking about.

CHOI: Exactly. We're all innocent.

COOPER: All right, thanks very much, Sophia. See you again in about 30 minutes.

Coming up next on 360, a new look at King Tut. His features no longer under wraps. Wait until you see what scientists have discovered. The question is, is this really what King Tut looked like?

Also tonight, "Jeopardy" helps celebrate CNN's 25th anniversary. As a former "Jeopardy" champion, I got a couple of tips for you.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

COOPER: In tonight's "Weekender," cracking the mystery surrounding a young Egyptian king. On Sunday, the National Geographic Channel is going to air a special on King Tut, showcasing a new theory as to what caused his early death some 3,300 years ago. It has been one of the most popular stories on cnn.com this week. Rudi Bakhtiar is here to tell us how they figured it all out -- Rudi.

RUDI BAKHTIAR, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Anderson, we heard about the new theory earlier this week as scientists gave us that first glimpse of what the young king may have looked like.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

BAKHTIAR (voice-over): In Egypt, nestled in the Valley of the Kings is arguably the most famous tomb in the world, the tomb of King Tutankhamen, or King Tut. And buried with him are the secrets of his life and death.

He became king when he was just 9 years old. Revered as half- man, half-God, ruling Egypt for almost a decade until he died at the age of 19. He was laid to rest over 3,000 years ago, virtually unknown to history until 1922, when an English archaeologist named Howard Carter made a discovery.

CHRIS JOHNS, EDITOR, NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC: They went into the burial chamber, and here are 3,000 antiquities in there, gold everywhere. An incredible sarcophagus. I mean, can you imagine this? Then you find Tut.

BAKHTIAR: And with that discovery, a mystifying legend was born. Chris Johns is the editor in chief of "National Geographic" magazine. They sent a team of scientists to Tut's tomb, armed with a CAT scan machine and cameras, determined to solve the mystery surrounding the boy king, particularly the legend of his assassination.

JOHNS: One of the long-held theories was that he had been struck in the back of the head. That somehow it had been a palace coup possibly. No one knew for sure.

BAKHTIAR: The first step of knowing for sure was carefully extracting Tut who was encased this a solid gold coffin weighing almost 250 pounds. And then the scans, 3D images revealing ailments from the mysterious, like these severed ribs to the mundane and impacted wisdom tooth. But they say, no evidence of murder. Rather it's this fracture in his left leg that most likely caused Tut's untimely death, from a war injury perhaps. The scientists believe that King Tut most likely died from an infection within five days of breaking his leg.

JOHNS: It was not a murder. He was not killed by a blow to the back of the head.

BAKHTIAR: The 3D imagery also provides a map of Tut's skull. The first glimpse of what we may have looked like. Working off the scans, artists complete the picture. And elongated egg-shaped head, a narrow face, and a small cleft pallet. Standing just 5'6" tall, he hadn't finished growing. Egypt's most famous king was barely even a man.

JOHNS: Giving Tut a face, puts a face on history. Every human being wishes, I think that at some point in their life at least, that they were immortal and I think Tut's an example of that.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

And you can watch the entire documentary about King Tut this Sunday on the National Geographic Channel or you can read about this amazing process in the June issue of "National Geographic" magazine. Will you be watching?

COOPER: I will actually. And I'm fascinated. Thanks very much.

BAHKTIAR: Well, enjoy.

COOPER: Rudi Bakhtiar thanks very much.

Lets find out what is coming up at top the hour on "PAULA ZAHN NOW."

Hey, Paula.

PAULA ZAHN, HOST, PAULA ZAHN NOW: So, Anderson, I thought you'd be watching "CNN Presents" at that hour? Or are you going to TiVo the National Geographics.

COOPER: Exactly, I've got serval TiVo's going at once in my house. Yes.

ZAHN: Yes. We're very agile on ours with that as well. Thanks, Anderson.

COOPER: At the top hour, the making of a terrorists. We're going to take you to the back streets in the Middle East and follow the very twisted path that turned Abu Musab al-Zarqawi into the radical leader of Iraq's bloody insurgency. Unbelievably, he was actually in prison once and was set free as a goodwill gesture. There are lots of parts of this story, Anderson, as much as any of us have read about this guy that seem almost brand new. So, we hope you all join us at the top of the hour.

COOPER: Definitely. It's about seven minutes from now. Thanks very much, Paula.

Coming up next on 360, who is the "Jeopardy" king? I know, I know, it's me! As the game show helps celebrate CNN's 25 anniversary, I've got is tips to pass along.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

COOPER: Ah, yes. The haunting refrain of the "Jeopardy" jingle. Written by Merv Griffin, did you know that?

You know, every time I hear it I have to stop myself from blurting out, I'll take Seamanship for 600 Alex.

As "Jeopardy" helps celebrate CNN's 25th anniversary with CNN categories all this week, I thought we'd all benefit from watching a -- well, a true quiz master at work. Last year, I played celebrity "Jeopardy" and they called it power players "Jeopardy" against Maria Bartiromo and Kweisi Mfume. And well, you know I don't like to brag, but let's just say I wiped up the floor with him.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

ALEX TREBEK, HOST, JEOPARDY: It's power player week on "Jeopardy."

COOPER (voice-over): I was pretty excited to be on "Jeopardy," even if it was one of those dumbed down celebrity editions.

TREBEK: Please welcome Anderson Cooper.

COOPER: OK, so he mispronounced my name. I didn't let that get to me.

TREBEK: Anderson, off you go.

COOPER: Right away, I wanted to let my opponents know I was here to play, I was here to win.

(on camera): What is equal.

TREBEK: Correct.

COOPER: What is Vietnam.

TREBEK: Yes.

COOPER: What is D-Day.

TREBEK: D-Day or Normandy, correct. COOPER: What is an aardvark.

TREBEK: That's it.

COOPER: What is Kwanzaa.

TREBEK: Right.

COOPER: Who is Aaron?

TREBEK: Aaron is the correct response. That takes you to 3,400.

COOPER: The trick is don't focus on the money, just try to read the answers fast, buzz in quick and hope your opponents choke big time.

(on camera): NAACP (ph) for 800.

TREBEK: Established in 1867, it's America's first fashion magazine.

Maria (ph).

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: What is "Vogue"?

TREBEK: No. Anderson.

COOPER: What is "Haper's Bazaar."

TREBEK: Remember, it must have those two A's in there.

COOPER (voice-over): Maybe if she'd watched "Jeopardy" more, she'd have got the whole two A thing. But hey, we all make mistakes.

(on camera): What is Baghdad.

TREBEK: No. No, idiot. You were thinking of the tigers.

COOPER: Yes, I'm an idiot.

TREBEK: No you're not.

COOPER: Lets see.

Who is afraid of Virginia -- what is who is afraid of Virginia Woolf.

TREBEK: No.

Maria or Kweisi?

What is "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof."

COOPER (voice-over): A big part of doing well is getting into a rhythm with that little buzzer. As long as you buzz in quickly, you can answer slowly. TREBEK: Anderson.

COOPER (on camera): What is Berlin?

TREBEK: Yes.

COOPER: Sorry.

TREBEK: That's all right.

COOPER: I'm just little slow there.

(voice-over): I don't know much about sports. But I do know how to play to a hometown crowd.

TREBEK: Serena was seen with Lavar Arrington, linebacker for this NFL team certain to draw cheers when you answer.

COOPER (on camera): What is the Washington Redskins.

TREBEK: That's right.

COOPER (voice-over): At this point in the game I was way in the lead, and my luck just kept getting better.

TREBEK: Daily Double and it's a video.

COOPER (on camera): Who is Maria Von Trapp.

TREBEK: That's it. Yes, indeed. Boy, you work that one, Anderson.

COOPER (voice-over): By Final "Jeopardy" I was way out in front, which was a good thing because I knew very little about the category.

TREBEK: Here is the category -- metals.

COOPER: I tried to concentrate, but in my head I kept humming along with that tune. In the end, I simply guessed, wrong.

TREBEK: Coltan.

COOPER: Yes, is that anything?

TREBEK: It's called gold. Gold is the correct response.

COOPER: Really?

TREBEK: Yes, isn't that amazing? You lost $1,000 only, but you're the leader and the winner today.

COOPER: Trebek called me a winner. I prefer the term "Jeopardy" champion. I was going to put it on my business cards, but I don't like to brag. Instead, I just have it on my stationary.

(END VIDEOTAPE) I only have it on -- on a little bit of my stationary, I should be honest about that.

I am Anderson Cooper, thanks very much for watching 360 this week. I hope you have a great weekend. CNN's prime time coverage continues right now with Paula Zahn.
