>> happy birthday. >> thank you very much thank you. >> reporter: after the niceties the two men got right to the issues, al qaeda yemen, a global terror alert. >> whenever we see a threat stream that we think is specific enough that we can take some specific precautions within a certain time frame, then we do so. violent extremism is still out there. and we've got to stay on top of it. >> reporter: then the global travel warning for all americans. >> are we telling people don't take that european vacation just yet? what are we saying? >> i think that the general rule is just show some common sense and some caution. >> reporter: the president sidestepped whether phone and internet surveillance uncovered the suspected al qaeda plot. he declined to describe snowden as a whistleblower for leaking class fewed information. >> if we don't know yet exactly what he did other than what he said on the internet. and it's important for me not to prejudge something.

>> reporter: as for russia's decision to grant him asylum the president admitted he was disappointed. >> there are times they slip back into cold war thinking and cold war mentality. what i consistently say to them and what i say to president putin is that's the past and, you know, we've got to think about the future. >> reporter: as for the president's recent lunch with former secretary of state and likely 2016 presidential candidate hillary clinton, there was no doubt about her familiarity with the white house. >> did you notice her measuring the drapes or anything like that? >> keep in mind, she's been there before. >> that's true. >> she doesn't have to measure them. >> reporter: president obama will attend the g-20 economic global summit in st. petersburg russia september 5th and 6th. this does not constitute a rupture in all relations. kerry will meet with russian counterparts later this week. >> major garrett, thank you.

reports from yemen say u.s. drones have carried out their second attack in two days. local security officials say a missile strike this morning killed at least six alleged al qaeda militants. that comes one day after u.s. embassy staffers were ordered and evacuated out of yemen. charlie d'agata is tracking developments out of yemen. >> reporter: it's the fifth suspected drone strike in the past two weeks. this one comes at a time when yemen is under high alert reportedly following a message intercepted from al qaeda's number one, ayman al zawahiri on attacks there. yemen reporting they thwarted an attack from al qaeda to blow up oil pipelines in key cities. although it's unclear whether it's connected with this apparently foiled plot. in a clear indication that the threat extends beyond yemen's

borders, as many as 20 embassies and diplomatic posts throughout the middle east are expected to remain closed till at least saturday. anthony and norah. >> a massive fire broke out this morning at the international airport in nairobi, kenya. ipts the largest airport in east africa. officials diverted all incoming flights. no injuries are reported. terrorism is not suspected. but it happened on the 15th anniversary of the u.s. embassy bombings in nairobi and tanzania. >> nearly a year later, the justice department has filed the first criminal charges in the deadly attack in benghazi libya. four americans including ambassador chris stevens were killed in the assault. margaret brennan. >> reporter: good morning. federal prosecutors have filed criminal charges against a libyan militia leader believed to be linked to the september 11th attacks in benghazi. his name is ahmed abu atala. the department of justice is keeping the charges against abu

atala under seal but what we know is since that night he's been living openly in benghazi. he told cbs news last fall that he was on the scene during the attack. but denied a role in the fatal assault. it is not clear whether the u.s. has asked libyan authorities to arrest him or whether the fbi has yet identified the other suspects seen in these photos taken off the security cameras at the diplomatic mission. thought to be members of answer al shar ya the militia led by abu atala. the u.s. government does not classify him, nor the group, as terrorists. sayingth investigation is ongoing. it's a top priority. the fbi has not made any arrests during the 11 months since the attack and the administration is under pressure to take action. last week a small but vocal group of eight republican congressmen sent a message to the new fbi director james

comey, pressing him to step it up. fbi access in libya has been limited since the beginning and any arrests are likely to involve significant negotiations between the state department and the libyan government which has, at best minimal control over the country. >> margaret brennan, thanks. the search continues for a california man, james dimaggio, suspected of killing a woman, kidnapping her 16-year-old daughter and either abducting or killing the woman's 8-year-old son. the bodies of christina anderson and her child were found in dimaggio's burned-out home. >> you've taken everything else. hannah, we all love you very much. if you have a chance you take it. you run.

>> anderson took part in a candlelight vigil on tuesday. court marshal-martial continues today. mark nidal hasan is representing himself. saying, quote, the evidence will clearly show i am the shooter. he says his only regret is he is among the imperfect muslims trying to establish the perfect religion. he said i apologize for any mistakes i made in this endeavor. so far, hasan is not cross examining them. former president george w. bush is expected to be released from a dallas hospital this morning. he underwent a procedure to clear a clogged artery yesterday. doctors placed a stent in the artery. they discovered the blockage during his annual physical monday. our chief medical correspondent is with us. explain the procedure, if you would, that the president had.

>> over time you can develop plaque in an artery supplying the heart muscle. in a stenting procedure, a tiny catheter is introduced right up to that area of blockage and a balloon is introduced to below up that blockage and then a stent is placed to keep it open. >> is that the only way to treat a blockage? >> no therein lies a huge controversy. you would thing, would you not, if you have a blocked artery the person will do better. but it's not true. the only time stenting has been shown to either prolong life or prevent a heart attack is if a person is having a heart attack or a near heart attack but 80% of people getting this elective procedure don't know that. now, cardiologists will say if they think the anatomy is such that a large part of the heart is threatened, they will do the stent. >> you're not treating president bush so you're not familiar with him but what do you think that means about his health? >> heart disease is the number one killer in the united states

for both men and women. every year many many people die without knowing they have any symptoms of heart attack knowing they have any history of heart attack. >> so given his -- this is a very active guy. should we be surprised this happened? >> i don't thingk we should be surprised. about 350,000 times a year people have sudden cardiac arrests. half of the time people have no idea they had any cardiac disease. >> i covered george w. bush 67 years old, extremely healthy. runs bikes, gave up drinking doesn't smoke. is it possible that stress could have caused this rather than -- because he's so healthy, that it could have been something else that caused it? >> you know what stress is a factor. at first we used to say, no that's really not true. now we're realizeingeing stress is something that can con tribute. let's look at basic risk factor high blood pressure diabetes smoking, being overweight not exercising. >> he doesn't have any of those. >> for people out there

listening, thinks the message for people watching this today should look at it. talk to your doctor. here's part of the controversy. routine stress testing for people at low risk of heart disease is not recommended routinely. so something must have happened with him. we do not know any of the details here but something must have happened that made them say let's go ahead and do a stress test. >> that's very interesting. doctor, thank you so much. the cleveland house where three women were held captive is no more. it took less than one hour for crews to demolish it. one of the victims came to watch and she released balloons and spoke. >> let everybody know that they're heard, that they are loved, and there is hope for everyone. >> the demolition is part of the deal that spared castro a possible death sentence. he was sentenced last week to life. the women escaped in may.

the family picked up personal items earlier this week from the house. new developments in egypt. the egyptian government says foreign efforts to end the bloody standoff with the muslim brotherhood has failed. the top u.s. diplomat involved in those talks has now left the country. we know that senators john mccain and lindsey graham arrived on monday. but as clarissa ward reports from cairo listen to this their message fell on deaf ears. >> reporter: the senators came with a message of friendship but they also delivered a stern warning. that if this country does not take steps towards reconciliation, it could be consumed by violence. are you alarmed by what you see happening in egypt? >> oh my god, i didn't know it was this bad. these folks are just days or weeks away from all-out bloodshed. there's a demonstration that's going to go bad here soon. the police are going to overreact. yes, i am extremely worried.

>> reporter: you both called this a coup in one way or another. why do you think president obama chose to send you two? >> i don't know but he didn't really send us. we were planning on going. what we're trying to do is mom forward and see if we can't bring about movement towards peaceful negotiations. >> why don't we call it a coup? the people governing the country never got one vote. the people who won the election are in jail. pretty clear to me that's the definition of a coup. >> reporter: the president called the senator's comments clumsy and unacceptable and announced international efforts to diffuseefuse the standoff has failed. certainly not the results they hoped for. president obama says he's endorsing a plan to wind down mortgage giants fannie mae and freddie mac. >> for too long these companies were allowed to make huge

profits buying mortgages knowing that if their bets went bad, taxpayers would be left holding the bag. it was heads we win, tails, you lose. and it was wrong. >> michael santoli is a senior columnist for yahoo! finance. what does this mean winding it down? >> basically mean we would no longer have these sort of quasipublic but profit-seeking companies, fannie and freddie, which were out there buying up most of the mortgages in the country and make a profit but in the crisis getting absolved by the government. even though the president laid out broad parameters it would probably are a more explicit but more limited government guarantee of mortgages. and allow the banks themselves to price the credit risk and not just sell the mortgages, off-load them to fannie and freddie. >> fannie and freddie basically are the mortgage market right now. >> and fha. >> right and the reason banks were willing to make loans is they knee fannie and freddie would buy the mortgages from them. take them away how does it

work? >> this is the trick. on paper it means mortgages would become more expensive. the president says he wants some provision to guarantee the availability of 30-year fixed rate mortgages. that would probably require, again, some kind of implied or explicit subsidy by the government. >> do you think this tells us anything about the health of the housing market? >> i don't think you have an announcement like this if there wasn't some comfort the housing market wasn't coming back. that they no longer had to do damage control on a day to day basis. >> if i have a fannie or freddie loan, do i need to be worried? >> i think no matter what comes of this the loan will be served. it will be handed off to a regular mortgage servicer. i don't think that is really the problem here. >> michael, good to see you, thank you. time to show you some of this morning's headlines.

>> i'm great. i'm great. what did you think when you heard from the cdc that these rates are going down? >> we were just thrilled and the first lady was absolutely overjoyed. we're really seeing our country united around the kids' health. for the first time in a decade we're see ging a down grade. they're making a difference. we've got to a long way to go but we're on the right track. >> this has been a signature issue. what about the campaign do you think led to this drop in obesity rates? >> well i don't think there's any one cause that we can see to, you know give us this drop. it's a complex issue and it has complex issues but we know early childhood is such an important component of making sure our kids are on the right path to a healthy life. the first lady launched "let's

move" child care to get healthier snacks better beverages, not too much screen time and they're running around and that leadership i know is making a big difference but it's been a lot of efforts from leadership across the country that's going to lead to declines as broad as these. >> sam the cdc says much of the credit is due to changes in the government's food plan like removing juice and adding low fat milk. is there any real evidence that that's making a difference? >> i think we know that improved -- i think they're referring to the wyc program. it's absolutely critical to getting them to on to a healthy start. here's the one reason we're seeing the decline because there's a lot of reasons we're seeing the trouble that we had, but we know that for the first time in over three decades since the beginning of this epidemic

we're seeing broad declines and it's not happening by mistake. it's happening because people are stepping up from parents, teachers doctors, community leaders to really make some changes and that's why we're seeing such good results. >> all right. sam kass good to see you. thank you. >> good to see you, thank you so much. and a multi-million-dollar project is on the ground. hollywood's plan to build two new skyscrapers could be catastrophic and as john blackstone reports it could be home to an active earthquake fault. >> reporter: everyone knows hollywood is the capital city of the movie business. what they may not know is it's built along one of southern california's more active earthquake zones. >> this is called scarp. >> reporter: he's works with a group opposed to transforming the area.

it's a multi-million dollar development that includes two high-rise buildings. the proposed towers would add more than a million square feet of office hotel, and retail space to the popular tourist spot but opponents say they may also sit right on top of that earthquake fault line. >> you can never build on top of the fault. that's not allowed because there's a certainty that you will have devastating failure of the building. >> reporter: california state geologists has declared the fault is active and might run directly underneath the probably, but the new york-based developers say the data being cite ready inaccurate. they say their tests show that the fault might be near but does not run under the nearly 408-story towers. >> we don't know exactly where they are but we've done borings and we don't believe it's on our

site. >> reporter: they believe it will increase traffic congestion and the buildings will block some of hollywood's best loved views. >> reporter: it's not the only landmark. views of the iconic hollywood sign could also did appear. what would hollywood be without it? the l.a. city council has already approved the prom but it will commission additional studies. >> nothing will be built would our state seismologists and local building and safety which has the most stringent building codes in the world. >> so will this be a towering 'chivement or will this production never get off the ground? this is one hollywood ending that has yet to be written. for "cbs this morning,"

hollywood. >> you said it's built like a stack of records. >> yeah. new york city mayoral candidate anthony weiner can't afford to lose any more voters in the wake of his sexting scandal but this morning he faces a new controversy. he slammed his opponent over age and did so before the aarp. elaine kikaquijano has more. that led to the confrontation at the start of a forum. if anthony weiner is trying to win over senior citizens. insulting rival george mcdonald over his age may not be the best way to do it. weiner then accused his 69-year-old opponent of having anger issues and called him

grandpa. a spokesman for the aarp called weiner's comment unfortunate and mcdonald tweeted this quote, weiner treats seniors with the same lack of respect he treats women. he's been an outspoken critic of his democratic rival but got litter support from the crowd. >> believe me it's not nice to talk about. i didn't have a nice conversation conversation with my grand daughter. why is he so popular. what did he do? why don't you do what he did? why do you want to ignore a person's character and judgment? okay. you don't want to allow me more time to talk that's more time for this glib narcissist. >> you can rest assured i don't take pictures of mooichlts thank you so much. >> reporter: although the

congressman has seen a drop in the polls it seems he still has plenty of supporters. >> i don't know. i'm cool with that. i'm cool with that. >> as for calling his opponent grandpa, the weiner campaign did not respond to our request for comment. anthony, norah? >> it's not a campaign. it's a circus. >> it is. i mean i just moved to new york. >> sorry. welcome to town. >> i've covered politics for a long time but wow. >> politics as usual. a simple campaign to put a woman's face on money has turned into an ugly battle in britain. it's led to tweeter changers. you'll meet the blogger in the middle of the controversy. that's next on "cbs this morning."

slapping him in the face by giving snowden asylum something the president personally lobbied putin not to do. the president will however, go to russia september 5th and 6th to attend a global economic conference under the g-20. there will still be conversations at the very high levels between the united states and russian officials. this friday in washington defense secretary, chuck hagel, and secretary of state, john kerry, will meet with their russian counterparts to discuss issues like snowden, syria, iran, missile defense and human rights things that have been complicating the relationship between the two countries in addition to the snowden affair for quite some time. anthony and norah, back to you reports of another american drone attack in yemen. at least six suspected al qaeda militants were killed. >> it comes as a terror threat forced the u.s. to close 19 embassies and consulates in the middle east. charlie d'agata is watching developments the latest drone strike is

budget that has money for the president's health care law. romney told guests that there are better ways to fight back. he says a shutdown would hurt people and the gop would pay the price. former president, george w. bush has left the dallas hospital and is resting at home. the 67-year-old had a successful procedure on his heart yesterday. doctors implanted a stint to open a blocked coronary artery. jan crawford is in washington this morning. jan, good morning. well good morning, norah. doctors found president bush's blocked artery monday during his annual physical. they did not mess around. they operated the next day, tuesday. that caught a lot of people by surprise. the former president appears to be in such good health. the former president is considered fit and active. just over two months ago, bush biked 62 miles with military veterans. >> he rode every kilometer, every bit of that ride and was looking really really strong and gave the real fit people a

run for their money. >> paul morris was one of the riders that day. he started biking with bush when he was one of the president's photographers. the two were together last month in africa when bush volunteered at a clinic and participated in a ceremony with president obama. >> he looked really fit. he looked super healthy and had a lot of energy. >> as president, bush talked up the value of exercise. >> it is good for your mind. exercise is good for your body and it is good for your soul. >> he cleared brush at his ranch in texas, was an avid runner before taking up mountain biking and took pride in staging challenging rides for his staff and the press. he also watched his weight. >> i'm a little overweight. therefore, fully intend to lose some inches off my waistline and some pounds off my frame. >> ed gillespie was a white

house adviser and a running partner. >> president shied away from processed foods and late night big meals, did not drink wine or beer or alcohol. >> along with that healthy lifestyle, since leaving office president bush has also taken up painting. sometimes he paints for two or three hours a day. if you look back and think back he told charlie during the interview this past spring, that the painting had brought him relaxation and a whole new way of looking at the world. maybe he will be doing a lot more painting in the months and years to come. >> jan crawford thanks. the cleveland house where ariel castro held three women captive is now destroyed. one of those women, michelle knight, was there this morning as heavy equipment tore the building down. she was imprisoned and abused inside the structure for 11 years. knight told other onlookers they should never give up on loved ones that are missing. >> i want the people out there to are missing loved ones keep

but briscoe was determined to lead and not follow. and he did in high school and at omaha university where he was all-american. in 1968 he was drafted in the 16th round by denver. >> they told you what? >> that i'm an athlete. >> at the time it was a code word for cold cool nfl fact. they would have to switch positions to wide receiver or defensive back. >> i said i'll play defensive corner but give me three days as a quarterback and in those three days i did very very well. >> in the weeks the denver head coach had little choice but to give marlin the magician as bryceco was known, a shot. he performed more than a few marriage tricks throwing more than 14 touchdowns for five

starts setting a broncos passing record that has never been equaled even by the great john elway. >> once i prove thad i could play all the other stuff in all those three years of doubts and the negativeness, they were dispel dispelled. >> but even a magician couldn't make those doubts disappear. despite his success, briscoe found himself on the wrong side of a white brick wall. >> reporter: you just had a great rookie year they're having a quarterback meeting in denver and they didn't ask you to come to it? >> i wasn't invited. >> you weren't invited. >> no. >> reporter: seeing the writing on the wall he left broncos and ended up in buffalo as a wide receiver. he would go on to become an all-pro and in 1972 win a super bowl with the undefeated miami dolphins. he left the game in 1976. >> you played eight years in the nfl. how many games to you start or

play at quarterback again? >> one play. >> one snap. >> one snap. >> how much of it was pure institutional racism? >> about 95%. >> incredible. >> a great career despite all that. you can see his full report tonight on "60 minutes sport.

one young engineer whose stars and stripes, decorated 'do became an overnight sensation. mohawk guy suddenly turned rocket scientist from pocket protectors to punk rockers, even president obama couldn't resist. >> i, in the past thought about getting a mohawk myself. my team keeps on discouraging me. >> he was invited to the president's inaugural parade and was the guest of the first lady at the state of the union. mohawk guy had become the face of a younger, hipper nasa. soon more than 60,000 followed him on twitter. some even tweeted marriage proposals. his now famous hairdo -- a special mohawk edition of all-star celebrity bowling. >> and sincere. >> hi i'm one of the engineers

at nasa's propulsion laboratory. >> mohawk guy made nasa cool again. >> he is with with us this morning. hello there. how are you doing? >> i'm doing good. excited to be here. >> you went to m.i.t. as norah pointed out. you're with the mars curiouset mission, but you are just known as mohawk guy. >> it's always in a good context. i think people were used to a different look at nasa but the reality is there are a lot more people like me in nasa than people realize. >> what's it been like for you personally over the past year since curiosity landed and people have noticed you and your hair? >> it's been an amazing year and not just because professionally i've had so much fun, and the robot mars is awesome, but also just because i have a chance to come out here and share the story of all of the engineers and what's going on, what's happening, why it is so exciting to be a part of all of this. it's a lot of fun.

>> unfortunately, sometimes it takes a mohawk to get people interested in something, right? but it is a great scientific achievement to have curiosity on mars. so let's talk about that. what have we learned? >> think the most amazing ones and the biggest one is we have found direct evidence that mars was habitable in its past. it doesn't mean it was inhabited, necessarily, but it could survive. to have two planets in the solar system that could support life i don't know what that mean but there are good odds that there might be life out in the universe. >> there's a project called mars one that's talking about sending people to mars in a decade. one-way tickets, by the way. would you take one of those? >> i probably wouldn't dido a one-way ticket. i like my family and friends here. i wouldn't want to leave them behind. >> i think a one-way trip is a

lot more practical in some ways if people are willing to do it. there are a lot of technical challenges, and the complexity of landing something and just a car on mars let alone houses and all of the things you need to learn. it will be tough. >> how did you end up at m.i.t. and end up at nasa. >> i wanted to be a part of nasa since i was a kid. since shuttle program it's been fascinating. >> why? what interested you? you were always interested as a kid? >> the science fiction and me as a kid, playing with legos. the whole sense of building something bigger than yourself and i think the exploration of space is a human endeavor that's so unique. no other species can do that. it's kind of crazy. it's fascinated me since a young age, and -- >> what about the idea that scientists are known as people with pocket protectors and are sort of dorks. i can say that i have lots of scientists in my family and

you've sort of made science cool with your hair? >> i think it's -- i actually think, like i said we are part of a generation where science is cooler than it used to be. i don't think you would know that you would passing by a nasa engineer if you were walking down the street. we're not wearing the socks and sandals with the pocket protect protector protectors. for me, it's wonderful to be able to represent that and say hey, you can be whatever you want to be and be an engineer. >> is that a test run for mission to mars? >> it's not a test run, but it's helping the manned program get to mars. we learned about the radiation environment and what they would experience on the surface. we're learning a lot about past experience on earth and the sky crane system that we used to land. that was the first time we had done a soft landing on mars and obviously humans can't bounce

a look inside our control room where it's all done. when it comes to surgery a new study find as bigger hospital isn't always better. consumer reports rated 2,500 hospitals in all 50 states. many earned only mediocre ratings. doctor, welcome. good to see you. >> thanks for having me. >> what does the study tell us? >> the study looked at two particular areas around surgical safety. one was around the number of deaths involved while a patient or after a patient has surgery and the second was how long a patient might be in the hospital

that is longer than expected. >> and i think this turns conventional wisdom on its head right? >> it does in that we've always thought about the rankings of hospitals, that bigger must be better. this is just shows you if you're getting one of the five procedure s procedures includes the one president bush had have a conversation with your surgeon. >> why would a smaller hospital be better for your a stent? >> that's a great question. one thing we know about surgery is the quality control as well as the surgery matters in some of these smaller hospitals, they've initiated quality improvement measures to make sure they decrease in section rates and outcomes and they've included surgeons who actually have a great deal of experience doing these procedures. >> and if they're fairly common they've got the experience too. >> exactly. >> you call this study groundbreaking prince employ because woe don't have a lot of

information, right? >> that's right. this is the first time in a series of studies that we've had publicly available reporting on hospital safety and it wasn't just surgery. they've also looked at other areas including acquired infections and how many problems people can have in a hospital setting. before if you looked two years ago, we didn't have anything. if you googled this we had nothing. >> why isn't there more information? >> the quick answer is it's complicated. the more detailed answer is if you think about any time you've about had to go to a hospital. there's so many aspects to what makes that successful work not complicated. putting all that together and putting a ranking or number to that can be very difficult to do. but for surgeries, this was a great insight into something that if you're getting one of these five procedures it's worth looking at. >> i think it's huge as a

consumer to have this information. if you're having an elective surgery you can go online take a look and find out what's a better hospital to get this done. i know you're pro information to empowering consumers. >> and there will be a day where you can look up my name as a doctor and how what i do is safe for patients. >> those will not only be done by patients? >> patients hospitals, insurance companies, states are doing it. you'll see it all around. >> great to see you. capturing the civil rights movement from the inside. you're going to meet the photographer behind thousands of images of history as it unfolded. that story is next right here on "cbs this morning."
