>> jeff: tonight the final farewell. leaders from around the world gather for nelson mandela's state funeral as thousands say one more good-bye in his hometown. allen pizzey is there. the school shooting in colorado was over in 80 seconds. carter evans tell us what police have learned from the past. a screen legend is gone. we'll lock back at the extraordinary life and career of peter o'toole. and a pablo picasso for $130. charlie d'agata says yes, if you are lucky.

tradition played a predominant role in the proceedings. speaking on behalf of the family, a chief said mandela was going home to rest with his forefathers, adding we thank

them for lending us such an icon. a battalion of traditional zulu warriors wasn't on the program so they simply took over a nearby hillside. the most deeply personal memorium was that of a man who spent 18 years in prison on robben island with mandela. >> we can salute you as a fighter for freedom in the end. farewell, my dear brother, my mentor, my leader. >> reporter: the lowering of the casket was kept private at the request of the family and included traditional leaders speaking to mandela's body. across the valley, lala hartford a sixth generation south african held her own private reflection on mandela. >> i think that my entire life, everything i've experienced would have been different if it wasn't for him. >> reporter: it would be hard to find a south african of any race or age who doesn't harbor a version of that.

in a 1994 documentary about his life nelson mandella said when a man has done what he considered to be his duty to his people and his country, can rest in peace. it's fair to say that by his very life, nelson mandela wrote his own obituary. allen pizzey, cbs news, qunu, south african. >> jeff: back at home the rough december weather continues. for the second time in a week a big portion of the country dealt with a serious snowstorm. tonight the cleanup continues. six states in the northeast are digging out from more than a foot of snow. with parts of new hampshire, vermont and maine getting the worst of it. 14 inches fell in greenville center, new york. 18 in woodford, vermont, and 17 in maine. the freezing rain that trailed the snow lead to treacherous driving. two people died in pennsylvania when their s.u.v. slid into the path of an oncoming pickup truck. this car skidded into a house after hitting black ice in chicago.

airlines grounded 800 flights today bringing the seven day total to nearly 12,000 cancellations. the two storms this week delayed more than 40,000 flights nationwide. while airports tried to get back to normal, others welcomed the snow. skiers at bolton valley in vermont enjoyed nine inches of fresh powder. in washington the senate was called into session today with the democratic leadership filing cloture motions ahead of tuesday's budget vote. on "face the nation," dick durbin said passage of that budget is still not a sure thing. >> the struggle is still on in the united states senate. we will need about eight republicans to come our way. i feel we'll have a good, strong showing from the democratic side but we need bipartisan support to pass it. >> jeff: congressional correspondent nancy cordist joins us now from washington. we are used to seeing the house block these deal, not the senate. >> that's right, there are a couple of things going on, jeff, that make this deal less

attractive to senate republicans this time around. first of all they were basically cut out of the negotiations. the deal was worked out by the house budget chair republican paul ryan and the senate budget chair, democrat patty murray and so many senate republicans-- particularly those who are up for re-election-- could face a challenge from the right argue this deal trades some of those guaranteed across-the-board sequestration cuts for the mere promise of cuts in the future. they don't think that's a good trade. and so many of those senate republicans have said they're voting no. >> jeff: plus the senate isn't exactly brimming with bipartisan good feeling right now, nancy. >> exactly. republicans are still so furious at the democratic leader harry reid deployed that so-called nuclear option which keeps them from blocking nominations. it stripped them of a serious piece of leverage so they're sort of locked in this the battle of wills right now with democrats which lead to the senate pulling two all-nighters last week. so no one is feeling great. but i do think that at the end of the day, based on our

conversations with republicans, there will be at least those eight votes, senator durbin talked about. the deal will pass just by not as large a margin as we saw in the house, jeff. >> jeff: all right, scheduled for tuesday in the senate, nancy cordes, thank you very much. the european union cut off trade talks with ukraine today saying the former soviet republic's terms have quote no grounds in reality. that development fired up protestors in the capitol city of kiev who were joined this afternoon by republican senator john mccain of arizona and democrat chris murphy of connecticut. they told the crowd of more than 200,000 that americans support their resistance. protestors want closer ties to europe, not russia. on friday the united states said it was freezing the assets of dozens more companies, it says violated the sanctions against iran. today iran responded. our elizabeth palmer is in tehran. she spoke with iran's foreign affairs minister mohammed javad zarif.

what did he say? >> reporter: he restated iran's position and that is that if the u.s.'s main concern with iran is its nuclear program, then sanctions have just made it worse. >> i believe sanctions have failed. they failed because when sanctions started, iran had less than 200 centrifuges. now it has 19,000. so a simple calculation will show that sanctions have not produced the results that they were designed to produce. >> reporter: now the united states would argue that those sanctions have produced enough economic pressure on iran that it finally came to the negotiating table and was willing to talk seriously. and the minister certainly backed that up. he said look, we don't want to live in isolation. we want better relations, not only with our neighbors, but also with america. >> jeff: liz, i also want to ask you about robert levinson. in the news this week the investigator and cia contractor

who disappeared in iran in 2007. did he say anything about levinson? >> reporter: dr. zarif said that iran does not have levinson and doesn't know where he is. however he went on to say even with levinson's now publicly acknowledged cia connections, that his government would help, and i quote, "resolve thing agony his family is going through, no matter what he did if, under some circumstances, he does turn up inside iran." >> jeff: liz palmer, in tehran, thank you very much. secretary of state john kerry was in vietnam today visiting the banks of the mekong delta. kerry has been to the country more than a dozen times but it was the first trip back to the muddy waters he patrolled during wartime as a young lieutenant in a u.s. gunboat. kerry pledged $17 million while farmers and fisherman adapt to changes in the ecosystem in vietnam. china is now the third nation after the u.s. and russia to

land a spacecraft on the moon. the jade rabbit rover made its first move on the surface today. it's been 35 years since that has happened. here's don dahler. >> reporter: when the spacecraft settled on to the lunar dust on saturday, it was as much a source of national pride for the chinese as it was scientific research. state tv carried live images as well as computer generated animation of the feat. china succeeded on its very first try. which was not the case when the u.s. and soviets first tried. both had multiple failures before they finally succeeded. cbs news space consultant bill harwood. >> of course they had the benefit of decades of watching their competitor does it first. so i think that is without a doubt a huge help. but at the end of the day, they still had to pull it off. and they did. and it's an impressive feat. >> the chinese then deployed a lunar rover named jade rabbit. the moment it rolled on to the lunar surface, scientists broke

out in applause. jade rabbit's three month long mission consists of snapping pictures, analyzing rock samples, and mapping the lunar surface with radar. no other nation has visited the moon since 1976, begging the question, is there anything left to learn there? >> one of the big topics right now is what resources are available on the moon. can you perhaps mine it some day and bring things back to earth that would be of some value. and then you've always got the moon as a staging post, a place where humans can go, a relatively nearby steppingstone before going off into deep space to targets like mars. >> reporter: the rover is being remotely controlled with tracking stations around the world operated by the european space agency. this is the culmination of decades of chinese ambition to land on the moon. jeff, in addition to the rover he's research, the lunar lander is equipped with an ultraviolet telescope to study other celestial objects. >> jeff: don dahler, thank you very much. we learned today of the passing of peter o'toole who died last

night in london after a long illness. intense and unforgettable on the screen, a notorious troublemaker off it, o'toole left an indelible mark on stage and screen on both sides of the atlantic. peter o'toole was a little known stage actor when he took the lead role in the 1962 epic "lawrence of arabia" his portrayal of the british soldier punctuated by those piercing blue eyes made him an international star and won him his first oscar nomination. other big roles followed. >> i would have gone to war. >> jeff: king henry ii opposite richard burton in beckett. henry ii, a second time opposite katherine hepburn in the lion in winter. a british schoolteacher in good- bye mr. chips. all told peter o'toole got eight oscar nominations. most recently for "venus" in 2006. but he failed to win every time. an academy record. he did win an honorary oscar in

2003. off the screen, o'toole made waves as a heavy drinker and serial carouser until health problems forced him to give up booze in 1975. he embraced his image as an eccentric. classically reliving his "lawrence of arabia" role with david letterman in 1995. >> excuse me but my noble transport is a little thirsty. >> jeff: peter o'toole said if you can't do something willingly, and joyfully, then don't do it. a great actor, he was 81. later how many college presidents make at least a million dollars a year. you might be surprised. a look at how and why police responded so quickly to friday's colorado school shooting. and another big name singer drops out of a sea world concert series. when the "cbs evening news" continues.

have come to this school armed with a shotgun and multiple rounds of ammunition had he not intended to use those rounds of ammunition to injured multiple people. >> reporter: but he never got that chance. the entire incident lasted one minute and 20 seconds. pierson fired five shots and lit one of the molotov cocktails in the school library. investigators say a sheriff's deputy assigned to the school rushed to the library where pierson fired one final shot, to kill himself. >> the shooter was very, very well aware that the deputy sheriff was in his immediate area. >> reporter: students began evacuating immediately after the first shots were fired. a demonstration of lessons learned following the 1999 shooting at columbine, just eight miles away. colorado governor john hickenlooper told "face the nation" this morning, those lessons saved lives. >> having had these episodes in the past, we do have, you know, strategies and protocols in place. we had a deputy sheriff in the
