welcome to "cbs this morning." charlie rose is off and anthony mason is with us. >> happy friday. >> happy friday. good to have you here. >> nice to be here. >> we'll start with the weather and those of you in the northwest are seeing new showers this morning, but the big problems are in the upper midwest where a flooding disaster is unfolding. more thunderstorms are heading toward minnesota where the mississippi is well above flood stage. >> the land of 10,000 lakes is struggling with its worst flooding in decades, and this morning the flood threat stretches from the dakotas to illinois. meteorologist megan glaros of cbs station wbbm says it could get worse this weekend. >> good morning. the country's midsection is getting pummeled again today. this morning we're tracking more record rain. in iowa river levels are soaring. and in minnesota they have seen twice the normal amount of rainfall this month. overnight, the mighty mississippi roared as the river reached its highest levels in more than a decade. at 20 feet high it's already
7:04 am
above major flood stages. towns have been washed out and people in more than half the counties in the state have been impacted by flooding. in 20 years it's never been this bad. >> we made sure that fema is already on the ground here. >> reporter: president obama visited the hard-hit state thursday to assure them they wouldn't have to face this challenge alone. >> you should feel confident that you're going to have a strong partner in fema and the federal government in the process of cleaning up. >> reporter: the cleanup has not been easy in the town of blakely. it's still closed off after heavy rains and flash flooding triggered mudslides and forced the community to evacuate. >> it's a real mess. i got 4 inches of water on one side and about 4 1/2 inches of water and mud combined throughout the whole basement. >> reporter: in nearby iowa waters are also rising. torrential rains flooded roads and as creeks swelled, officials issued flash flood warnings. >> the water flow that's coming down here, it is definitely the hardest and fastest i've ever seen it. it's definitely the worst i've
7:05 am
ever seen. >> reporter: if you are traveling anywhere across the country, with the exception of the southwest and the northeast, you're going to run into the possibility of thunderstorms today. but the core of the most intense activity will likely be in the northern central and even parts of the southern plains where there is the possibility of tornados, strong winds and large hail. california, most of nevada and parts of arizona, new mexico stay very dry but we're looking at a core of very heavy rainfall potential up across parts of the northern plains into the upper midwest and great lakes region where there is the possibility of flash flooding from montana into the dakotas and down to nebraska today. and any additional rainfall will just exacerbate flooding issues across parts of the upper midwest and great lakes. 79 degrees for your high temperature today in los angeles, 77 salt lake city and 70 in casper wyoming. >> megan, thanks. in eastern arizona this morning, dry conditions and strong winds are fueling a fast-moving wildfire. the flames are forcing people

7:07 am
>> reporter: despite their less-than-perfect performance on a rain-soaked pitch, they did have reason to celebrate. they earned enough points in previous games to escape the group of death and advance to the next round. >> it's huge. it's huge for us getting out of this group. everybody said you have no chance. we took that chance and we move on and now -- now we really want to prove a pointing. >> reporter: advancing in the tournament was anything but certain for the americans once they fell behind. if ghana had beaten portugal it would have won a tie-breaker with the u.s. >> and ronaldo -- >> reporter: but a late cristiano ronaldo goal lifted portugal, which in turn lifted team usa to second in the group. usa goalkeeper tim howard turned in a stellar five-save performance. >> we still have a lot in us. it shows how far we've come that we want to progress and we've still got a little left in
7:08 am
us. >> reporter: bruce arena coached team usa through two world cups in 2002 and 2006. >> we've within consistently good. we've played against good teams. i think we've shown slow progress through the tournament we're peaking at the right time and belgium is a team we're capable of beating. >> reporter: the americans play belgium on tuesday in the knockout round. the belgians are ranked 11th in the world. >> they're another top team with a lot of quality players on the side. we'll do everything we can and make the best of our ability. if we do that i think we can get a result. >> reporter: team usa fought their way in the group of death against significant odds and arena thinks the americans are in perfect position to move deeper into the world cup. >> i don't think our players will be in fear of the belgian team. it's called a knockout stage for a reason. it's win or go home. i think we will be well positioned for that game. >> reporter: while the u.s. is big news back home in america, here in rio, the top sports
7:09 am
story is actually luis suarez and his nine-game suspension for biting another player. now, there is a story about the americans, norah, it's on page nine. >> elaine thanks. with us from sao paulo, brazil is usa goalkeeper tim howard. tim, good morning. congratulations to you and the team. boy, when was the last time that i loss felt so good? >> it's a weird feeling for sure. we knew what we had to do and, you know we had a plan to advance and part of that plan was possibly having to lose. but anyway we fought hard and in the end it was a very sweet feeling. >> a sweet feeling indeed especially for many fans back here in the states. the usa's advancement depended a lot on the results of the portugal/ghana game. were you guys getting results simultaneously while you were playing?
7:10 am
>> i was. i few of us figured out ways to make sure we knew the result. i think it was important when you get to those last 20 minutes of the game it's important to know how to manage the game. of course you want to win and in yesterday's case try at least draw the game and get ourselves through on our own merit, but if need be we needed to manage the game based on what the other result was. in tournament play that's how it happens. >> tim, i understand you were getting hand signals from the sidelines? >> yeah that was one of the clues. i was trying not to confuse it and mess it up which one was 2 and which one was 1 but we figured it out. >> it turned out it was the right 2 in the end. >> it was. thankfully. thankfully. >> the official numbers aren't out yet, but the early indications are that as many as 19 million americans were watching the game. are you particularly encouraged by the great response here in the u.s. to soccer which has for a long time had a hard time winning an audience here?
7:11 am
>> blown away. four years ago in south africa the numbers were staggering and now they have gotten even better. i've lived my entire adult life in europe, and i see how passionate people are, so to be an american player and for our country basically to stand still, like the european countries do when a game is on it really just -- it speaks volumes about how far the sport has come in this country. >> tim, how as the team advances you face belgium next what are you worried about? >> they have a lot of things to worry about. when you start to get to this level in this stage of the tournament, you're only going to play top, top quality teams. i've played with a bunch of those guys on the belgian team. they're one of the up and coming superstar powers in europe. they have a lot of young players. speed, power. but we feel like we match up well against them. however that's possible we do. we feel like we're strong and we're fast and we control the ball well. so it's going to be a
7:12 am
hard-fought game. >> tim, belgium actually beat you guys 4-2 in an exhibition last year. so it's going to be a tough match. and you're playing still without jozy altidore, your striker who has been injured. how much are you missing him on the attack? >> you know he's obviously a top, top player of course. you're going to miss your biggest and best players. but we've coped well. we've created chances. we've been playing some really good soccer. you know in possession of the ball. belgium beat us but i also feel like we relish the role of underdog. mentally it gives us an edge to be the underdog. it keeps us hungry and allows us not to be complacent so we feel like we're really well positioned. hopefully we can get jozy back and fit, but if not, we roll on. >> do you think he will play in the game tim? >> my fingers are crossed. i'm doing everything i can to help him. you know which isn't much of course, because he's in the hands of very capable doctors.
7:13 am
but we hope he can be back. >> all right. tim howard please give our best to your teammates. we are all cheering you on. good luck. >> thank you so much. a new study on drinking in america is creating dramatic headlines this morning about the effects of alcohol. the cdc says excessive drinking is responsible for one in ten deaths among working age adults. dr. holly phillips is here with the findings. good morning holly. >> good morning. >> you're really pretty shocked by these numbers. >> i have to say the numbers are really astounding. as much as i think about alcohol use and i see use and abuse in my practice i would never have expected these numbers to be so high. when we think about it it's one in ten deaths. people in the prime of their lives, between the ages of 20 and 64. and on average, for people who die from alcohol-related injuries or diseases it cuts 30 years off their lives. >> what are some of the alcohol-related deaths that
7:14 am
we're talking about here? >> well with this cdc report they looked at two different entities. one is heavy regular drinking which is more than two drinks a day for men, more than one drink a day for women. that's when we see rates of heart disease, liver disease, cancers, including breast cancer, that's when we see those illnesses go up. there's another entity which is just binge drinking. people might sit down and have more than four or five drinks at once, that's when we see car crashes and accidents. >> and this is fascinating to me because you say heavy drinking is more than one drink a day for women and more than two drinks a day for men. i'm sure there are many people at home who say that doesn't sound excessive to me. >> no not at all. actually that's what i think the biggest takeaway from a study like this is. alcohol is so much a part of our lives. it's social it's celebratory, that it's very easy to forget that it's a real drug that has real effects on our body. so, again, one drink a day for
7:15 am
women, two drinks a day for men. it's easy to have more than that but now we're seeing what a big toll that can take on our health. >> the fourth largest cause of preventible deaths. i was surprised that 70% men we're talking about here. >> yes. men are more likely to have heavy alcohol abusers, but women also can see those same effects with less alcohol on a daily basis or even less alcohol on a binge drink. so it's really -- it affects all of us. it's about just being aware of this and knowing these numbers. >> holly, thanks. in iraq this morning, armed american drones are flying missions over baghdad. a pentagon official says the flights are meant to protect the u.s. embassy. a new study finds the isis army massacred 200 people in tikrit earlier this mokt.nth. charlie d'agata is in baghdad with more. charlie, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. this is a report out by the human rights watch today. investigators examined graphic photos and satellite imagery and
7:16 am
say what they found amounts to nothing less than a war crime. there's some of the most horrifying images of a horrific war, and meant to be so. men being led away at gunpoint forced down into a ditch, some with their hands tied behind their backs. masked men pointing their weapons and opening fire. the photos were released by the isis militants themselves. human rights watch estimates that gunmen executed between 160 and 190 men in tikrit north of baghdad, two weeks ago, but they said the number could be much higher. they showed satellite imagery of suspected execution sites along the tigris river, not far from one of saddam hussein's palaces. we can't independently verify this video with which shows lines of soldiers being led away by isis militants in tikrit about the same time as the massacre. isis has conquered large parts
7:17 am
of iraq by using fear as a par more powerful weapon than any of the u.s. military hardware they have stolen from abandoned iraqi army bases. and yet there have been signs that the iraqi military has begun to fight back. iraqi forces continue to push into territory taken by isis to the north and east of baghdad. in their religiously mixed province, fierce fighting has been taking place for more than a week. some of that fighting is taking place just an hour or so north of baghdad where it appears the iraqi army has been at least able to slow down this isis offensive. norah? >> charlie, thank you. this morning president obama is asking congress for $500 million to arm and train some syrian opposition forces. it's the biggest u.s. attempt yet to get involved in syria's three-year civil war. congressional critics and some administration officials say the aid is long overdue. last week the president told us an earlier intervention would not have turned the tide against
7:18 am
syrian president bashar al assad. >> when you get farmers and dentists and folks who have never fought before going up against a ruthless opposition in assad, the notion that they were in a position suddenly to overturn, you know not only assad but also ruthless highly trained jihadists if he just sent a few arms is a fantasy, and i think it's very important for the american people but maybe more importantly washington and the press corps to understand that. >> that was the president calling it a fantasy. now asking for $500 million in aid. this is intended for moderate rebel forces. the goal is to weaken islamic extremists also fighting syria's government. this year's supreme court session will end monday with a long awaited decision on the health care law and birth control.

the justices handed down two unanimous decisions yesterday. they threw out a massachusetts law including a 35-foot buffer zone around abortion clinics. they say it violates abortion opponents' free speech rights. it also put limits on the president's right to appoint government officials while the senate is in recess. a spokesman says the white house disagrees with the rule but willow bay. and it is 7:19. ahead here on "cbs this morning" we'll check headlines from around the nation. plus the government takes aim seeing a lot of fog on this friday extending out over the bay and someful valleys too, now -- some of the valleys, too. delays at sfo of over an hour on arriving flights because of the cloud cover. it is going to break up throughout the day. we'll see a lot of sunshine into the afternoon. the temperatures may be just slightly warmer, very flat ridge of high pressure overhead. for this weekend that will strengthen quite a bit. temperatures today 81 in concord, 78 san jose, and 67 degrees and breezy in san

analyst jack ford joins us at the table. lots of people have an opinion and a lot say that ain't right. it may be legal but it ain't right. >> it does sound odd, gayle. >> it is odd. >> it is indeed. the reality is most people would say, wait a minute why is this any different than some stranger walks up and sits in your rocking chair and likes it and says i'm not leaving. the answer is because they had this employment relationship that gave her a place to live that was part of her deal. >> she's no longer doing the job. >> that's why they have to go to court. california's landlord-tenant laws and a lot of states have these very protective laws that have specific procedures designed to protect both sides, landlords and tenants. here they're saying this is not a trespassing situation because she had a right to be there. you now, the employer says -- the family is saying she doesn't have a right anymore. she's saying i do. so as a consequence, for instance, the police said we're not going to get involved in this. this is a dispute between you guys and you have to go to court and treated it as a
7:35 am
landlord-tenant dispute. >> jack, if the family locked her out of the house would the police intervene then do you think? >> look at you working this mind and how we handle this. >> everybody is thinking of themselves in this situation. what would you do? >> apparently she's not leaving the house which would allow them to do that. but the family called the police and tried to say get her out, it's a trespass. and the police said it isn't. it might be disturbing to you, but you're going to have to go through the procedures very precise and detailed procedures for this to happen. >> well this is every mother's nightmare, and family's nightmare too who hires a nanny. how could you prevent something like this from happening? i've never heard that she was part of this vexacious litigant. >> real quickly anybody can have access to our courts. we don't have a system where you can sue and lose and pay judgments and the costs society some states have started to say we have to deal with people
7:36 am
taking advantage of the court system. it doesn't automatically mean you can't go back to court. but the short answer for the question is get everything in writing. be precise. >> if you had done a background check on your nanny, would that have come up? >> it should. >> jack ford thanks jack. federal regulators this morning are pushing to have a bigger say over the apps you use in your car. jeff pegues is riding shotgun in washington where drivers are seeing red over this move. jeff, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. many people use navigational apps on their phones they don't use maps while they're driving but the department of transportation thinks using nav apps while driving is just as dangerous as texting while driving. but now there is a gray area for police and motorists. navigation technology has evolved rapidly with smartphone apps like ways and google maps having up to date directions. information on traffic and even speed traps. but if motorists operate those types of apps behind the wheel,
7:37 am
the department of transportation believes it's just as dangerous as texting and driving. >> i was not using my phone, i was not texting. >> reporter: steve spriggs, a california resident received a $165 ticket for distracted driving while using a navigation app on his cell phone and decided to fight it in court and he won. >> the reality is the law didn't cover that so they cited me for the wrong thing. had i been driving dangerously, they could have cited me for that. had i been swerving across lanes, they could of cited me for that. i wasn't doing anything but hoegd a hand-held electronic device. >> reporter: currently the national highway traffic safety administration says it has the authority to recall specific electronic devices, including apps on smartphones. in the president's new transportation bill regulators want to strengthen their authority as the technology continues to evolve. tim stevens is editor at large at the tech website c-net. >> ultimately they all try to be as safe as possible but there really are no regulations or no guidelines right now in use by the majority of these
7:38 am
application developers. >> reporter: stevens says the tech industry is concerned. new recgulations could stifle competition and taking a financial toll on app developers who don't have the resources to comply with new rules. >> pick up my dry cleaning. >> reporter: with safety in mind, new technology like apple car play and android auto sync your phone's technology to your car. they are working with the auto industry by encouraging car makers to sell vehicles with built-in dashboard navigation systems. >> they're incentivizing drivers to put their phone down versus the solutions that we're talking about when it comes to legislation which would be more of a punishment approach punishing people who do pick up their phone. >> reporter: this is a debate that will continue because the department of transportation views distracted driving as a deadly epidemic with devastating consequences on the roads. norah. >> look at jeff bouncing up and down in a car while he's doing his live shot.
7:39 am
look at you. i'm glad to see you're not driving. >> me too, that you're not driving. i was wondering how you were going to do that jeff. >> reporter: that's right. i'm the passenger. >> passenger. good to see you. all right. and now to this story. after a series of hard hits ben utecht started forgetting things in his 20s. now the retired nfl tight end is planning for tough times. the emotional love letter to his family in a story you'll see only here on "cbs this morning." that's next. introducing a beauty breakthrough. so bold. revolutionary color. so chic. at the hottest boutique. the new paint studio at ace! surprise. luxurious color from valspar optimus and valspar aspire. check out this drawer action. discover premium paints and helpful people. i love both of those things.

idea that iraq was hiding weapons of mass destruction. remember that? the big hunt for weapons of mass destruction. we get over there, start poking around. we can't find weapons of mass destruction. guess what? what dick cheney, even now to this very minute believes there are mass weapons of destruction in iraq. even though we've scoured everywhere, looked up and down. he still believes there are weapons of mass destruction and i still believe i'm going to get "the tonight show." you tell me. >> what's dave saying there? >> we're going to miss dave letterman. >> we are. >> going to miss him. in our "morning rounds," a warning about a hidden drowning danger. it can happen long after you leave the pool. a 2-year-old missouri girl nearly became the latest victim that past weekend. several hours after swimming alycia sanders began to choke in her sleep. water drained from her mouth and nose. thanks to a news report her mom saw from secondary drowning she knew to rush her to the hospital, saving her life. our dr. holly phillips is with
8:18 am
us once again. good morning. >> good morning. >> i never heard of this. how can you drown hours after leaving the pool? >> i will tell you i had made it straight through medical school and never heard of it until my first year of residency when we actually got one in the e.r. we saved a person's life. this is an unusual phenomenon. basically there are two forms of out of water drown. the first is dry drowning. you've had a struggle in the pool, you can handle a little bit of water. it creates irritation in your airway and that causes muscle spasms. so you start to choke and you have trouble breathing. the other form is called secondary drowning, which is -- it sounds like what this little girl had. it can happen up to 24 hours after you're already out of the pool. what happens is you've inhaled water. usually, again, it's after a bit of a struggle and it irritates the lung tissue itself and causes inflammation.
8:19 am
the lung tissue then starts to make fluid and makes what's called pulmonary edema. your lungs create fluid. you're filling up with fluid and you're drowning even though you're not in the pool. >> it's not water from the pool hours later it's the pulmonary e de -- e edema. >> exactly. fluid from the lungs themselves. >> doesn't this typically i happen with kids? >> kids you have to watch out for the most. again, dry drowning is not that common. seems like 1% to 2% of all drowning deaths, but it's something we have to know about because it's easy to miss. especially in kids. they're playing in water. you might not see a struggle. frankly they could be irritable and have fatigue and you may not look for it. >> you're an ob-gyn. you saw the pregnant lady running. is that safe to do? so worried about that lady. is that okay to do? >> i'm not an ob-gyn. i'm a general internist but i
8:20 am
would think most ob/gyns would not like to see that. but you know what? you're allowed to do whatever you were doing before your pregnancy. so she was doing it beforehand. >> and she's okay. >> i'm pro her running with that big belly. >> i was worried about that. >> don't be doing that, gayle. >> i won't. >> dr. holly phillips, thank you very much. the hottest new sneakers can mean lines around the block. but a teenager found a way to make used sneakers pay off. you'll see how he's building a business model one step at a time. that's ahead on "cbs this morning." >> announcer: cbs "morning rounds" sponsored by pronamel multiaction toothpaste. protect your enaammel against the effects of everyday as ids. th against everyday acids. my dentist has told me your enamel is wearing away, and that sounded really scary to me, and i was like well can you fix it, can you paint it back on and he explained that it was not something that grows back, it's kind of a one-time shot and you have to care for it. he told me to use pronamel. it's going to help protect the enamel in your teeth. it allows me to continue to drink my coffee and to eat healthier, and it was a real easy switch to make.
