let's go places. welcome to "cbs this morning." good morning, norah. >> good morning, charlie. as you wake up in the west, there are signs that the crisis in ukraine may be ended by diplomats and not armies. it may not be easy. top officials from ukraine, russia, the united states, britain, and france are in paris paris. the west is ready to offer ukraine billions of dollars in economic aid, but secretary of state john kerry says this morning that the russians and ukrainians have not yet agreed to meet face to face. >> kerry said yesterday in ukraine's capital that russia broke international law, but there's no need over the violation. >> president obama and i want to make it clear to russia and to everybody in the world that we are not seeking confrontation. it is not appropriate to invade a country and at the end of a barrel of the gun dictate what

you are trying to achieve. that is not 21st century g8 major nation behavior. >> margaret brennan is at the palace where secretary kerry is getting ready to sit down with russia's top diplomat. margaret, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, and good morning to the west coast. russia's top diplomat is here in paris, but it's not clear whether or not he'll meet with ukraine's foreign minister. secretary of state john kerry had hoped to get the two talking to find a peaceful way out. kerry will meet himself with lavrov later today, and his message is that there is a way out. the u.s. is asking russia to send troops back to their bases, accept international monitors and endorse may elections to set up a new ukrainian government. the u.s. had hoped to set up european union wide sanctions on

russia, but german chancellor angela merkel today president obama yesterday she's reluctant, because there are deep ties between the two economies and germany's very reliant on russian gas. so the u.s. may have to go it alone and sanction russia itself in the coming days. the e.u. did agree on one thing. a $15 billion aid package to this i is to pull ba >> yeah i think everybody gnizes that although russia has legitimate interests in what happens in the neighboring state, that does not give it the right to use force as a means of exerting influence inside of that state. >> and this morning, russian president vladimir putin said that political tensions should not interfere with, in his words, our current economic cooperation. elizabeth palmer is in

sevastopol sevastopol crimea. elizabeth, good morning. >> reporter: now that president putin has backed off on his option to expand the invasion the situation here in crimea has sort of devolve into a waiting game. this is just one of the military bases loyal to kiev. this may be a siege, but it's a relaxed one. the wives and families of ukrainian soldiers arriving with food for their men. not so much scared for them as outraged. she says, "it's humiliating, our soldiers being told to disarm. as a woman, i imagine it's like being asked to strip naked by strangers." so what next? the russian soldiers around the base weren't talking. you don't know how long you'll be here? the truth is they probably have

no idea. moscow will certainly resist giving up control of this vital territory, home to the russian black sea fleet. but what happens to the ukrainian soldiers holding out from one end of the peninsula to the other? apart from a few high-profile officers switching sides, the troops have held their ground on dozens of bases and even on military ships. commander alexi said marines never surrender. nobody wants to swear an oath to a dubious government, but the troops have been crushed emotionally. crews of two navy ships fassened their mattresses to the rails to prevent the russians boarding. and in a powerful symbol of loyalty, the ukrainian navy's biggest warship is still flying the national flag. moscow could insist that all this be handed over to the russian military to control in the future, but this matter, too, is now in the hands of the diplomats.

in fact, the diplomatic process has already engaged here in southern ukraine. two teams of international observers have arrived. one civilian, one unarmed military, to get a first-hand look eyes-on of the situation down here. >> thanks, elizabeth. robert gates appeared on my pbs program last night to talk about ukraine before going to the pentagon. gates spent 26 years at the cia. he became the agency's go-to man on russia. gates is wearing a neck brace because of a recent fall. at the cia and at the defense department, you have access to all kinds of analysis of vladimir putin. what do you think he's up to? and how far is he prepared to go? >> well, i'm kind of amused by this -- some of the headlines that i'm seeing on tv and elsewhere that he's lost touch with reality or that he doesn't understand that this is a new world or whatever. he knows exactly what he's doing. he is trying to re-establish russian influence and a measure

of control over the former states of the soviet union. he doesn't want to bring them back into the soviet union. he doesn't want to re-create the soviet union. he just wants them in effect to be part of an alliance with russia, but where they essentially do russia's bidding. and he's trying to prevent them from moving to the west. >> is the president handling this about right, or not? >> i think he is. trying to get the allies on the same page and being willing to collectively first threaten and then potentially implement severe sanctions against russia for what they have done in ukraine is exactly what he should be doing. i think the challenge the president faces is that our allies may not be as willing to

go along with these sanctions as they should be. we're hearing from the u.k., from germany, elsewhere a reluctance to impose banking sanctions, to impose trade sanctions, and so on. so i think -- i think that the administration and the president personally have their work cut out for them. >> so the question to you is, what should we demand for them to lift those sanctions? >> i'm skeptical that the europeans will get behind a set of serious sanctions, okay? that's one of the risks for the president. if he pushes too far and the united states gets too far out in front and the europeans -- he looks behind him, and none of the europeans are there, then we risk being the ones isolated here. so, i mean, i'm not optimistic about how this is going to turn out, quite frankly. partly, in no small part, because i don't think that the europeans are prepared to take the steps necessary to put the pressure on putin militarily in eastern europe or economically

and politically elsewhere, including in ukraine. >> and that's a bad omen for the future. >> i think so. >> gates also said fellowin's tone down their criticism of obama. he said name-calling will not help the united states achieve goals in the ukraine. >> he says essentially that the troops will be there for a while. >> he does, because he doesn't think the sanctions will happen sufficiently because he doesn't think the allies are willing to do it. and what we've heard this morning suggests he may be right. >> from germany, indeed. on wall street the dow is down in early trading at this hour, despite financial markets rebounding as ukraine starts to quiet down. the dow opened the day after 228-point gain tuesday, the biggest one-day climb since september. the s&p 500 hit a record high for the 49th time in the past 12 months. this morning, critics of the president's health care law have a new target for their anger. another major delay.

the obama administration will allow insurers to continue offering bare-bones lanns, even if they don't comply with the minimum standards. jan crawford is in washington with the newest twist in the rollout. jan, good morning. >> reporter: well, good morning, charlie, nora. good morning to our viewers in the west. last fall, the president allowed some of the no-frills plans to stick around, after an outcry from millions of consumers who had their policies cancelled. now, the white house is hoping to prevent a similar scene just before the midterm elections. with consumers outraged over cancellations, the president announced last november that americans could keep their plans for another year, even if they did not meet the affordable care act basic coverage requirements. >> i completely get how upsetting this could be for a lot of americans, particularly after assurances they heard from me that if they had a plan they liked, they could keep it. and to those americans, i hear

you loud and clear. >> reporter: now, cbs news has learned the administration will allow insurers to offer the substandard plans even longer avoiding another round of cancellations just weeks before the midterm elections. republican senator kelly ayotte said the white house is trying to protect vulnerable democrats not consumers. >> if you look at the timing of it, it's designed to delay until right after the 2014 elections, and we already know what happened when people started to receive cancellation notices last time. >> reporter: news of the extension comes just three weeks before another critical obamacare deadline march 31st, the last day to sign up through an insurance exchange. last month, the vice president warned that enrollment goals may not be met. >> initially we talked about why the end of this period having 7 million people lined up. we may not get to seven, but we're going to get to five or six, and that's a hell of a start.

>> reporter: now congressional republicans, of course have been trying to repeal obamacare. they've done it, like, nearly 50 times, tried to. the irony, of course, for all

into the water. >> they realized there was another child still stuck signed the vehicle. >> the kids are screaming there's a baby there's a baby. i get back to the van and by this time a cup p lifeguards made it down there to us and come to find out there was a baby in the -- still strapped in the seat, but we got her. >> reporter: a lifeguard can be seen carrying that child dressed in red away from the car. authorities are investigating how and why the car got into the water. all three children and their

mother were taken to the hospital to be examined. >> local police tell us right now the children are in state custody. the department of children and families is also investigating the incident. charlie and norah. >> terrell, thank you. for decades china has pursued economic growth with regard to the coons kwenss. now that is changing. dirty air is too big a problem to ignore. seth doane is air that's plagued this city and elsewhere in china. this morning the government vowed to fight this. speaking to the nearly 3,000 delegates gathered in beijing's great hall of the people china's premier said he was declaring war against pollution. we listened to the nearly

been -- it's a red-light warning sent by nature against the model of extensive development, lee said. we must strengthen protection of the ecological environment.

that they're working on a report about the cia's detention and interrogation programs. >> the long beach plus telegram says former secretary of state hillary clinton is comparing russia's actions in ukraine to nazi germany. -- places like czechoslovakia and romania and other places. hitler kept saying they're not being treated right. i must go and protect my people, and that's what's gotten everybody so nervous.

thing. >> why are major league sports opposed to moving beyond las vegas? >> their position is norah, they're saying look if we do this institutionalize this it is going have an impact on the credibility of the game and they're concerned about protecting the credibility. >> how much do they generate? >> $100 million-plus. the population voted overwhelmingly for this. they said this could be an important asset for us and they claim let's let us regulate it rather than let organized crime rate it. >> what do you think the chances are that the supreme court will hear the case. >> you know statistically, gayle, that's hard. they get 10,000 applications each year. they hear maybe less than a hundred. what's interesting about this is its fundamental states rights issue. they're saying if you don't have it right now or within the year you can't have sports gambling and new jersey is saying why

ataupb me but will never be allowed to join russia. and a confrontation with russia could turn into a standoff. >> reporter: what had been a standoff now desolvedvolved into a waiting game. everybody is looking to the diplomats to see what emerges at the bargaining table. dozens of bases across the peninsula, ukrainian troops stood there ground, and they remained loyal to kiev and that goes to the land troops and soldiers on ships. and some attached mattresses to the rails to prevent russians from boarding. and diplomatic process has

engaged here on the ground but there are two observers, one civilian and one unarmed military and two american delegates, and they are assessing the situation to try to look at how to proceed. a new government reports warns antibiotics are being misused, especially in hospitals. some hospitals are prescribeing three times as antibiotics as other hospitals. you sitting against the orange pillows was pretty but that has nothing to do what we are going to talk about. is this a case of hospitals and doctors backing away from

prescription pads? what is going wrong? >> what the report shows is that about half of patients before they leave the hospital are given an antibiotic and in many cases they didn't need it. when antibiotics are needed doctors and hospitals are not making the best choices. we're reaching for the big guns when something weaker would have the same affect. >> this has become a emergency situation, right? >> it's all about super bugs. these are drug resistant bacteria where nothing available to us can treat them. what the cdc says is super-bugs are emerging faster than new antibiotics to treat them. what i like about today's report is it's offering a feasible solution, instead of saying this is a big problem, the cdc is looking for $30 million over the

next five years to basically set up labs in different regents of the country so the moment a new strain emerges we could be all over it and eradicate it before it spreads into the community. >> is that enough to duty job, do you think? >> i hope so. it's a feasible solution not cheap, but hopefully it will work. >> don't you think it's not just about hospitals and doctors but it's about patients? we have gotten so used to every time we have a cold calling our doctor and asking for a z pack or something that antibiotics won't cure? >> yeah doctors are responsible and we need to step away from the prescription pad, but that was done more easily when we're

all on the same page. >> what are you telling us to do? >> antibiotics are used for bacterial infections if you have the flu or cold in a period of time it will go away on its own. obama spoke yesterday. >> i think it's probably fair to say there are things that did not go as well as we intended them to. we would have a stronger position in the phone market today if i could re-do, for example, the last ten years. >> palmer defended microsoft's record as an inowee innovator. >> charlie, does he always speak like that?

investment income, both capital gains and dividends. and there are some phase-outs of deductions that were in place. they got reinstated. basically, if you make a lot of money, you're paying more in taxes for 2013. >> what about changes to medical and dental expenses? >> this is interesting. if uhyou had a big medical expense or dental expense, it used to be you had to have more than 7.5% of your adjusted gross income that's the bottom right-hand corner, in order to make that tax deductible. that threshold is now higher. it's 10%. that's a big number by the way. it's a lot of dental work. i have to say, medical expenses can pile up. if you are above the age of 65, it is still 7.5% though. >> and the common mistakes people make that lead to you being audited. >> well normally it is not reporting income. so a mass error or not reporting income. huge audit flag. other common mistakes that really everyone makes where, you know, oh, i forgot to sign my

return or i forgot to date it. that's not going to lead to an audit. other audit flags, when you're self-employed, you are an audit flag automatically. if you take piles of deductions even if they're legitimate you're an audit flag. what does that mean? please, keep track of all of your receipts. you've got to have proof. the only good news is that very few people get audited because with the government cutback, the irs is pretty underfunded right now. >> the best tools to help you? >> irs has fantastic tools. irs.gov. that's the website. you should use it. the other thing that's really important, if you make less than $58,000, this is a big threshold, you get free software from the irs. it's great software actually. also, there is a refund tracking tool called my refund. it's better if you file electronically. can i put this out there? i know there are technophobes.

20% more errors when you paper file. e-filing does work better. >> thank you. if you question the power of online dating think about this. those relationships now lead to one-third of all marriages. there are now 1500 dating sites, but the one with a lot of buzz isn't really even a web page. it's a match making app called tender. ben tracy went to the university of southern california where it first got its spark. >> reporter: we're talking about tinder. what do you know about tinder? >> it's a dating app. >> i think people use it to like, meet new people and hook up or whatever. i don't know if many people use it to actually date. >> reporter: tinder is a free mobile app where you look at pictures of other people and decide if you like what you see. it's this site where you swipe people that you think are attractive. so when you're on it what do you do? what are you looking for? >> what am i looking for? >> reporter: yeah. >> i mean pretty girls.

>> does it list anything about the person, or it strictly a picture? >> reporter: it's actually six pictures. tinder also imports data from your facebook account and uses gps to select people nearby that it thinks you might like. if you don't like them you swipe left. if you do you swipe right. did you do a lot of swiping right? >> yeah. >> reporter: if you both choose each other you're a match and can then send a message. >> we are solving a real problem for people. >> reporter: sean and justin created tinder. they are both 27 years old. why is it called tinder? >> so tinder is actually -- why the [ bleep ] is it called tinder? no one knows, actually. >> reporter: let's try that again. >> tinder is the stuff you use to ignite a flame. so we are making a connection between two people and igniting sort of a relationship. >> reporter: a relationship that may last forever or for an hour. is tinder a dating site? is it a hook-up app? what is it?

>> if anythingt's anything our users want to make of it. it happens to be good at finding you a romantic partner, whether it's short term or long term. >> we've kept it broad and generic. we don't really tell you what it is on purpose. >> reporter: what tinder is is a hit. it launched just 17 months ago and has exploded. its users swipe photos 750 million times every day. both men and women find the app attractive. how many users do you have? >> we would love to tell you, but we won't. >> reporter: that's secret? >> it's highly secret. >> reporter: what they also don't mention is that tinder was born inside a giant company, iac interactive, owned by billionaire barry diller. iac is the lead investor in ok cupid and match.com. those sites make people create multistep profiles. tinder does not. it connects people based on looks. do you worry that this is shallow? >> not at all. it's no different than sort of

eyeing somebody across the room. but you have more information at your fingertips with tinder than you do in the real world. >> reporter: o'lympians in sochi used tinder to meet each other. two scientists connected in antarctica and became friends. and there's now a website devoted to bad tinder pick-up lines, such as if you were a fruit, you'd be a fine apple. did you have a good pick-up like? >> i said, what can brown do for you? >> reporter: a little u.p.s. line, huh? pretty good. props for that. so this is where you really started talking about tinder. >> yeah well we both went to school here. >> reporter: sean and justin both went to usc. they launched tinder by spreading the word at parties. >> a lot of people join because they think it's fun. i think they get this life-altering value. >> reporter: do you think that's a bit grandiose? >> i don't think it is. it's people that impact their lives. by introducing you to new people that's an opportunity to

change your life forever. >> reporter: sean and justin's lives are also changing, now that millions have fallen in love with their app. for cbs this morning, ben tracy, los angeles. >> you know, i have to say, when i first heard about tinder i was just kind of shocked. i thought it was kind of gross. i'll be honest. it was just a hook-up. now i think it's fine. you know people are meeting other people and start relationships, whatever they may be. but i sort of mellowed from my old lady reaction to it. >> come on grandma. it's 2014. i think it's great because the initial attraction is physical. you can act on it or not. >> all it does is make more expeditious what they've always been doing. >> more expeditious? >> well is there a age range on it? >> no, there's all kinds of, you know, age ranges on it yeah. and i think if you're looking for something quick, it might -- >> i'm never looking for

something quick. >> that's not what you said earlier, gayle. you told me earlier -- >> no, i think it's quick you can make a determination on whether you want to meet the person. but i always want long term. >> no overnight things for you. >> no, no. >> good. >> wait a minute. everybody here -- i'm not going to say it on tv -- knows what gayle wanted for her new year's resolution. we won't say it out loud. >> what did you want? >> remember? >> the thing about -- >> what was it? i'm serious. >> empty -- >> oh i said i didn't want empty sex. i don't want empty sex, no. listen we could do a whole hour about gayle, but we're not going to. but you know what i mean charlie. i think everybody wants something to love and be loved. >> i would say that's not gayle. >> you were teasing, yes. >> we'll make sure people know i'm teasing. >> your tinder is going to light up. >> that's gayle. all right. moving right along.

from this tinder to peter greenberg. he keeps israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu on the move. >> you've never seen him riding a bike? well, what do you know? and when you race against the head of state, guess who always gets the yellow jersey? >> wow. peter joins us with a look at his new special. i've never seen the prime the cloud is roling into the bay area this morning. you have a common cloud off the coastline and that will be the trigger to squeeze in showers as we go to the middle of the day and evening. temperatures are mild in the 50s and by the afternoon rain developing in the north and spreading into the south but not before squeezing in 60s and low 70s today. showers continuing overnight tonight into overnight

press. not to mention a few travelers who suddenly find themselves rafting alongside a head of state. >> i'm shocked. a politician shaking hands with kids. that never happens. >> you know peter -- >> yeah? >> never in the history of rafting have so few been accompanied by so many. >> you got to row peter. >> i'm going it. >> it doesn't move with only one side. >> i'm doing it. there we go. >> that's great. >> all right, peter. great to have you with us from los angeles. good morning. >> good morning. >> so the prime minister saw the film. what's his reaction? >> well he actually saw it for the first time last night. his reaction was, why didn't you do two hours? he was thrilled. it's never enough. what can i say? but he was really thrilled because for the first time he actually got a chance to get out

of the office and show me his country through his eyes. >> and to see him in plain clothes was pretty fun. how did you two get together? >> well, this started about 13 years ago when we did the very first one with the king of jordan. since then, we always wanted to go to israel. it's just a matter of finding the right amount of time. a five or six-day window in his schedule. very difficult to get. it took a long time to do. when we finally did it he couldn't help himself. he couldn't wait to get out of the office and literally show me the country in a dune buggy, jet ski, boat, under water, we were going everywhere. >> peter, let me get this straight. you had five or six days with the prime minister of israel with all that's going on in the world? >> we did. >> wow. >> in fact it was actually more than that charlie, because on the second day of our shoot, he wanted to play soccer. there's the game right there. he's pretty good except for one problem. trying to kick a penalty kick to me, he tore tendons and ligaments in his leg was in a cast, and we were shut down for the next seven months while he

recovered. >> we probably should make you a goodwill ambassador from the u.n. >> you know what? it's a very interesting story when you think about the fact that all the people around him said he'll never do this, it will never happen, and he couldn't wait to do it. a completely different perfect perfective than you normally see. >> if you don't ask,
