7:00 am
good morning. it's june 28th 2014. welcome to "cbs this morning: saturday." the u.s. military beefs up its power to protect our soldiers in iraq. how our drones will play into the rising violence. then it tooks syears to develop and facebook took years acquiring it. and he's the so-called king of barbecue. we go down to georgia to see why people are spending thousands to learn his secrets. but first we begin this morning with a look at today's "eye opener." >> your world in 90 seconds. >> continue to fly both manned
7:01 am
and unmanned aircraft over iraq. some of those aircraft are gone. >> the pentagon has confirmed armed drones have been deployed over baghdad to protect u.s. troops. >> deployed troops numbering in the thousands are moving toward baghdad from both the north and the west. >> there's new evidence indicating isis did massacre captured soldiers two weeks ago. >> president obama seems in fighting spirits in minnesota. >> i might have said in the heat of the moment during one of these debates i want to raise minimum wages so sue me if i do. i didn't think they were going to take it literally. >> 337 deaths so far. >> r & b singer bao mac has died. >> much of the states of minnesota is waterlogged. >> a guy armed with a metal pipe jumped on the lid of a moving
7:02 am
police car. he told them he was from the planet zotron. >> all that -- >> a small plane made an emergency landing on a highway. this happening in arlington. >> amy add a is getting praises for giving up her seat to a u.s. soldier. >> on "cbs this morning." ladies'night. powerful shot. >> make that the longest home run in the big leagues. captioning funded by cbs and welcome to the weekend, everyone. i'm anthony mason with vinita nair. good morning. the holiday is just around the corner. >> and i hope my cold is gone in time for the holidays. >> it will happen. we have a great lineup of gets for you including chef shaun
7:03 am
hergut. he's won awards in australia. >> plus lake street wants to be the best bar band. we begin with the top story. the influential cleric is calling for agreement on a prime minister before the new parliament meets next week. >> meanwhile the armed military is flying armed drones over baghdad. we have charlie d'agata in baghdad where the iraqi militants launched air strikes today. but we begin with mark albert with the latest involvement. good morning. >> good morning. 300 delivered so far this year with hundreds more on the way. perhaps even more valuable are the growing numbers of u.s. forces on the ground. the american commander who is already familiar to some in the iraqi military. >> the army overall is very busy
7:04 am
an we're certainly a great example of the kpe. now the west point graduate is in charge of finding out how the u.s. can prop him up once again. the president says they'll lead joint operation centers in the iraqi capital and northern iraq as well as 16 advisers made up of the army special forces. that's about 180 of the 300 troops authorized by president obama. to support them spokesman john kirby said some of the 30 to 35 surveillance flights a day over iraq are now armed. >> with the introduction now of additional u.s. personnel in an advisory capacity designed go outside the embassy confines
7:05 am
that the commander on the ground central command commander believed was prudent to arm some of these aircraft to make sure we have additional forces in place. >> they said american assistance will only go so far. >> this is not our country's future to decide. this is iraqi. this is the iraqi leaders who needed to step up after we ended our mission there and give their country a better future. it's not up to us the united states turkey or iran or any other country to fix this for the iraqis. >> thousands of the insurgents are moving toward baghdad in two directions if what the intelligence is called a multi-pronged assault. they're trying to find out if the iraqi forces can defechbd the capital. they say that assessment should take two to three weeks. vinita? inside iraq they're conducting air strikes. for the latest on the constantly changing situation we go to
7:06 am
charlie d'agata in baghdad, the iraqi capital. charlie, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. that battle started this morning. they're trying to seize back the city that was taken by isis fighters just more than a week ago in part of an overall military operation. iraqi military says government forces are taking the fight to isis militants and that these bodies of isis fighters are the prove. god willing said this iraqi soldier they will not take another inch of iraq. this will be the fate of all isis fighters f after conquering and capturing large chunks of territory on a wave of fear and intimidation, the rapid sunni defenseive has appeared to slow down, at least for now. large force have been doubling down in an effort to pinch after routes to baghdad, securing the roads of the northern city of
7:07 am
samarra. the army claims this raid claimed the province earlier this week north and east of baghdad. a seized cache of weapons is on display as is the body of a dead militant. despite apparent gains with no political solution in sight, the conflict threatens to widen with or without u.s. military support. prime minister nuri al maliki is desperately trying to hold onto power despite desperate calls for him to step down. and with the calls, the top cleric wants parliament to choose a new leader before it meets on tuesday, al maliki is fighting for his political life while facing growing battles throughout the country. of course the sole purpose of trying to avoid this is to try to avoid further sectarian violence here and at this point there's no telling whether that can happen in a matter of days.
7:08 am
anthony? >> charlie d'agata in baghdad. thank you, charlie. few leaders in the world today know the middle east as well as the president sherez. he has been serving his country since it was founded in 1948. we wanted to hear his views on the current crisis in iraq and syria, so "60 minutes" correspondent lara logan sat down with him for an exclusive interview in his last leg as president. good morning. >> good morning. the most surprising thing he told mow was the advice he gave to president obama about iraq. he said the conflict between the two main groups sunnis and shiites is the responsibility of arab league coalition of arab nations and not the u.s. in his view this is not america's fight. >> the shiites, sunnis should be handed by them. it's an arab problem. they're qualified to handle it.
7:09 am
really an arab problem. >> he said he told president obama the u.s. should support the fight in iraq rather than lead it. as this terrorist group isis consolidates its gains in iraq and look toward jordan does israel feel frightened? is a threat eminent from the terrorists in iraq so dangerous that it's capable of bringing israel closer together with some of its oldest enemies? >> maybe. and they shall be delighted to have it happen. we're not looking for enemies. we have enough. what we're trying to do is convey enemyniemyies into friends whenever we can. >> 20 years later,
7:10 am
there's still no peace and the most recent talks fell apart. yet paris remains on good terms. >> who are the leaders in the middle east that you can count on? >> abbas is a partner. i have much respect for the king of jordan. i have much hope about the new president of egypt. and also saudi arabia and the gulf countries. >> what about bashir al assad in syria. is he here to say? >> after killing 160,000 people i wouldn't take the security insurance. >> over the past 65 years, he has worked with ten u.s. presidents and he's the only
7:11 am
member of israel's founding generation who's still in office. but in just a few weeks he will step down and finally retire from government service. >> even though you're the world's oldest statesman already, you have more plans. >> i don't think aim is a consideration in my situation. i think you're as young as your dreams and as old as your calendar. so i'm not concerned about my age. i'm concerned about the future. >> president paris did not have much hope for the future of iraq. he said he did not see the slightest chance of it remaining as one country. >> fascinating interview to hear some of his viewpoints. did he make any mention of the three israeli teenagers who disappeared on the west bank? >> yes, he did. according to them they're not negotiating for the release of
7:12 am
those captured teenagers because they don't know who took them. but he did say in no up certain terms that if israel has even the slightest idea where they are, they will have no hesitation going in there. >> i love that you're as young as your dreams not as old as your squall door. more rain is expected in the central add northern plain states. river banks have overflowed their banks and gushed into streets and into homes and businesses. danielle niles a meteorologist with our boston station wbbz has more. >> that's right, vinita. these green shaded areas, indicate where flood warnings are in effect. flash flood watches are on. and flash flood warnings are ongoing in parts of kansas this morning where clusters of thunderstorms continue. this is all with a cold front that will continue to slide toward the east.
7:13 am
so the severe threat today extends from the texas panhandle and portions of the midwest. damaging wind gusts, large hail isolated tornados will be the primary threat. tomorrow that threat is for a smaller area but still in the same spots and have been seeing clusters of storms for days. torrential rainfall. anthony, back over to you. >> the white house released its review of the scandal-plagued veterans administration and it's not good. yesterday's scatheding report found, quote, systematic and chronic failures. it also says the 14-day scheduling for new parents to receive care is arbitration and ill-defined. the report says the veterans health care administration must be restructured. general motors has called yet another recall. yesterday's recall is for almost half a million vehicles
7:14 am
worldwide. 428,000 are in the u.s. including gm's tot selling sierra and the silverado. a software glitch ka cause the transmission to shift into neutral. gm says it's not aware of any crashes or injuries. like mary barra, meg whitman was forced to turn around the company. after downsizing staff she's had to find a way to cut down on energy. that's forcing computer companies such as hewlett-packard to get creative. >> reporter: in las vegas this month hewlett-packard meg whitman announced a bold future. >> this changes everything. >> reporter: a dramatic redesign of computing h.p. calls the machine. what will h.p. be able to do? >> it will be able to compute much faster with huge amounts of
7:15 am
data and it will also take up a lot less space and pull a lot less energy. >> reporter: managing the explosion of data is literally sucking up the world's energy supply. >> the estimates are it could take up 25% to 35% of the world ee data centers, up from 2% to 3% today. >> reporter: hewlett-packard is working to use light instead of copper wires and whitman is putting three-quarters of the company's lab team on the project. >> that's a big bet. >> it's a big bet. we're taking a lot of chips, in las vegas analogy, and putting it on red. >> how big is this in terms of cost? >> it will depend on time but it's thousands of dollars. >> years ago in a palo alto garage, h.p.'s growth has stagnated as they shifted from
7:16 am
computer devices to cloud. >> i think you wrote there are many industries that are big and slow and stuck. >> exactly, exactly. >> and that's not where you want to be. >> we cannot be there or there will not be another 75 years for h.p. >> there aren't many tech companies that have been able to make these kinds of transitions. >> you're right. you have to be able to cap ballize your existing existence. i'd rather do it to myself than have someone do it with me. >> so whitman who took ebay from 30 employees to 15,000 during her ten-year reign there will cut 15,000 jobs at h.p. about 14% of the global work force and the 57-year-old ceo has broken down the walls of the h.p. executive culture. >> have a seat. we'll have a meeting. >> did you move everybody out into cubicles? >> i did. >> why? >> when i got here this whole
7:17 am
area was filled with wood paneled offices, very formal and it looked like a bank. i said the ten years at ebay was cubicles and the interaction was amazeingamazing. the interesting thing is when you come to a new organization symbolic value is important. i like that in politics. >> reporter: whitman's political career was brief. a 2010 run for governor in california that ended in defeat taught her the value of communication. >> it's the story you tell. it's the heart. it's the authenticity that captures people's imagination. i learned that running for governor, perhaps a little too late, but i did learn it. >> would you ever do it again? >> no. >> never? >> no. i won't run for public office again. >> do you regret it in any way? >> no. it was very difficult. very humbling, but i have probably learned more from my failures than i have learned
7:18 am
from my successes. this was a very successful failure and a very public one. >> hewlett-packard was $12 a year ago is now $34. >> that's what everyone looks for. the world is getting red for another soccer match. on tuesday before they take the field chile goes up before brazil. it features the chilean miners who were trapped. they took the soil from that mine to give the players hope and courage. jeffgeoff fosters is here. good morning. welcome. >> good morning. >> you can put your hand around the number of teams. >> now it's traditional tournament that americans will be more familiar with. win and you go home. you can sort of see your path to the final.
7:19 am
also flo more tice which america might like. now things go to a shoot-out. it's something americans haven't experienced but it is exciting when it happens. >> u.s. plays belgium next who we lost to in an exhibition a year ago? >> yeah. pretty badly. it's an exciting belgium team top to bottom. they have what they call the golden generation, a bunch of young players coming up. they really don't have much world cup experience but they're loaded with talent so it's going to be another tough opponent. >> let's talk about how they ended up here. some say a narrow loss is as good as a win. >> yeah. they got here obviously beating ghana. that's what they needed do. no one expected them to beat germany. no one has near the talent. but losing to germany is nothing
7:20 am
to be ashame of. look at portugal. >> i also heard that during the game they inquired about the portugal school because they wanted to know how much they needed to win or draw or lose by. >> we needed to beat them. we would have had to go on more of an attack. they were monitoring that game, but there's a reason they play them at the same time so we don't know exact lay what we need to do in those situations. >> the u.s.'s offense against germany look add lited a little shaky. >> i didn't see any offense. >> you're more direct. the key player joe zi altidor, is he going to be back? >> they're hopeful. hamstring injuries are really weird. you don't know. there are different degrees. they're optimistic. they hope he'll be out there which will benefit the americans.
7:21 am
can we put you on the spot and ask you what the score will be? >> 1-0. >> that's it? >> i think the u.s. can win it. i think it will be very close. it might come to extra time. >> great soccer. geoff foster thank you so much.

7:31 am
million settlement but as michelle miller shows us that money can't buy back the time they lost. >> reporter: 25 years after being convicted for a crime he didn't commit kevin richardson known as one of the park five feels vindicated. >> right now it feels great to have a voice because we didn't have one. all we wanted to tell you is we didn't do it. >> reporter: in 1989 richardson and four other tankers between 14 and 16 years a of age were arrested for the rape of a 28 white female jogger in new york city in central park. >> she was dragged down into the bushes which is called the lock where she was beaten and sexually assaulted. >> reporter: raymond santana served five years in prison. >> is this other? is the page turned? >> i get up every morning and say, all right we have to go

7:37 am
time now for "morning rounds." joining us is dr. jon lapook and contribute dr. holly phillips. first up this week research shows that 3-d mammograms detect more breast cancers than the usual methods. jon? >> that right, anthony. a new study finds more. 44-year-old lawyerly kaplan went for her annual mammogram using a technique that produces pictures in 3-d rather than the standard flat images. >> this way they have such a better view that they see way more things than they ever could and they detect more. it hurts less actually. >> reporter: today a report
7:38 am
reviewed more than 450,000 screening exams. about 170,000 included women receiving the standard and 3-d mammography. 41% had more invasive cancers detected and 15% fewer repeat conclusive findings. >> the study brings out that women don't have to be called back as often so, therefore, there's less anxiety. >> here's a regular mammogram of one of dr. elliott's patients. it looks normal but the 3-d shows a hidden cancer one that was eventually removed. kaplan's was cleared with no additional mammographies i think it will become the screening tool of the future. i think it's important that women get the message that if they're going to have a
7:39 am
mammogram mammogram, they should make it count. >> jon, this seems like a significant advance. do you think they're going to become a new standard? >> it's certainly a technological advance but will it translate to less women dying from breast cancer? and that's not clear yet. it could be it could help more women. it acts more like a cat scan so it may be better at detecting cancers in those women. but for women who have more fatty breasts it may not make that much of a difference and maybe it's not worth the increased radiation which the fda says is still under their safe standards. and also don't forget this is not yet covered by insurance and it costs another $50,000 to $75,000. the cdc reports excessive drinking causes more than one in ten deaths. i know you were really stunned by this number. >> i have to say they're
7:40 am
significant numbers and they're shocking in some way. especially when you consider cdc said 88,000 deaths a year can contribute to it. these are people in the prime of their lives, 26 to 64. it's shaving off years of life for them. >> are we talking drunk driving accidents here or alcohol poisoning or is it broader than that? >> that's why it was so really impactful. it looked at it in a broad sense. you know, binge drinking having more than five or six drinks at once is linked to some of the things you mentioned, homicides car accidents, falls, that sort of thing. but regular daily heavy drinking which is more than two drinks day for men, more than one drink day for women is also linked with health problems that ultimately lead to death like heart disease, live disease, and cancer. even breast cancer. now, some good news about aspirin. a new study finds that men and women who regularly took low dose aspirin had a 48% reduction in their risk of developing
7:41 am
pancreatic cancer. jon, there are a lot of people i know who take baby aspirin for heart disease. so what's the connection? >> there's some pretty good evidence. it's increasing emerging that low dose aspirin can decrease the likelihood of getting other cancers. for example. colon, esophageal, breast lung and even others. why would that be? it turns out aspirin increases the pathways. if you bang your knee it started to swell up. you take the aspirin and it may reduce the likelihood of the swelling because all of the compounds coming to na site to repair it are causing a problem and the aspirin holds that down. now, it turns out that those same inflammatory pathways a lot of them also are involved in creating cancer and that's the idea. you're unter erupting by accident the pathways leading to cancer and that may be five to 15 years before cancer develops.
7:42 am
>> so, holly, should everyone be taking aspirin? >> that's a good question. what's not clear is who benefits, how much they should be on and for how long. aspirin is a real drug and has riffings from bleeding to allergic reactions to everything in between. our research is still evolving in not just preventing it but who it's right for. books. the american academy of pediatrics says parent should read aloud to children every day beginning from birth. it's the first time the group has taken an official stand on the issue. they urge doctors to act like librarians and make sure books are available to all families particularly those with low incomes. four years ago ian had a freak swimming accident and was paralyzed from the chest down. now he's participating in an
7:43 am
experiment that might change his fate and the fate of others. dean reynolds has this inspiring surgery. >> reporter: ian had brain surgery a few months ago in an unprecedented trial involving surgeons from ohio state and engineers from betell. they created a technology called neurobridge. the micro chip is connected to a port on ian's skull. the port is cabled to a computer which is supposed to decode melgs from his brain and beam commands to his sleeve laden around electrodes around his forearm. ian's team asem pbled in a small hospital room to see if the work of the decade would bear fruit. would the prompting in person from chad be strong and clear enough to send a signal to his hand. the answer took a tenth of a second to arrive.
7:44 am
>> good. >> reporter: and while it looks like such a small thing, extending your fingers or collapsing a spoon, no human in ian's condition has ever done it the way he did. >> that was great. i mean to be able to open and close my hand and do those complex movements that i haven't been able to do in four years was great. >> that's really stunning. >> it's absolutely incredible. i could watch that video over and over. >> and this is classic out-of-the-box thinking. most of the research with spinal cord injuries has focused repairing the broken wires in his spinal cord. try to fix them with stem cells maybe or other electrical stimulation. these people said, you know what? let's go wireless. >> wow. dr. jon lapook, dr. holly phillips, thank you both. and up next. an act of violence 100 years ago today changed history. we'll hear the hidden story behind the assassination that
7:45 am
led to world war 1. you're watching "cbs this morning: saturday." thank you daddy for defending our country. thank you for your sacrifice and thank you for your bravery. thank you colonel. thank you daddy. military families are uniquely thankful for many things the legacy of usaa auto insurance can be one of them. if you're a current or former military member or their family, get an auto insurance quote and see why 92% of our members plan to stay for life. septic system breakdowns affect over 1 million homes a year and can cost thousands of dollars to repair. thankfully, rid-x has enzymes to break down waste

britain's queen elizabeth and prince philip had a remembrance ceremony in london to mark the 100th anniversary of the assassination of duke ferd and in. yesterday in sarajevo because bosnian serbs. the assassination ushered in years of war and upheaval across the globe. what you might not know is the story of how it happen and how a seemingly isolated action could set off a four-year war with staggering costs. with a closer look we're joined by dan carlin. good morning.
7:49 am
>> thanks for having me. >> it was the second attempt of the day and it was at point blank range. what happened? >> it reminded me of the john f. kennedy assassination. here you have a world leader going down the street in an open top car and his wife next to him killed by a gunman. but you have to imagine he was shot he was whisked off and another gunman got him later in the day. it's strange. it's considered to be one of the great coincidences of all time. >> with why was it so combustible? >> 40 years before the war broke out the german chancellor said europe was already a powder keg and he scribed the leaders being like men smorking in an arsenal. he said i can't tell you when it's going to break out but i will tell you it's going to be some damn fool in the balkans.
7:50 am
>> really after this assassination within one week all of those alliances had essentially restructured right? >> that was part of the problem. all a sudden the dynamic got started that didn't allow them to do anything about it. i always compared to someone pulled the pin on the hand grenade and everyone's trying to diffuse the hand grenade while it's about to go off. you think if you only had time for the diplomats to get to work or cooler heads to prevail, i thinks might have been different. when you think about the german military at the leader was there. he said this conflict we're about to get into will decide the planet for a hundred years and here we are 100 years later. >> it was a truly transparent event. >> if you look at the people going off the war in 1914 they looked in some cases like they came out of painting in napoleon's time. the last time was 99 years
