welcome to "cbs this morning." there is new off the field drama for the nfl and the minnesota vikingings. the team benched star running back adrian peterson overnight. he must stay away from all team activities indefinitely. the vikings have gone back and forth on peterson's status since child abuse allegations came to light. >> the former nfl most valuable player is accused of whipping his 4-year-old son with a tree branch. there's a growing outcry from sponsors and fans. dean reynolds is at the practice facility in eden prairie, minnesota, a twin city suburb. >> good morning to our viewers in the west. many nfl sponsors have begun expressing concerns about the peterson situation. and the vikings were feeling that heat. so after changing their minds twice about their star running back, they've now decided that adrian peterson will remain off the field while the legal process plays out. adrian peterson is off the field

again. the minnesota vikings issued a statement early this morning, saying the team has been in conversations with nfl over the case for the past two days and the league informs the team of the option to place adrian on the exempt commissioner's list which will require that adrian remain away from all team activities while allowing him to take care of his personal situation until the legal proceedings are resolved. peterson has been charged with a felony for allegedly whipping his 4-year-old son with a tree branch. on friday, the vikings benched him. but the team reversed that decision on monday saying they would allow him to play while the legal process unfolded. public pressure on the club continued to mount. anheuser-busch a $50 million per year sponsor of the nfl, expressed its displeasure with the league's handling of the

abuse allegations. when contacted by "cbs this morning," other sponsors such as fedex, bridgestone, pepsi, mcdonald's and visa indicated they were concerned by the situation and monitoring it closely. in an interview with the nfl today host james brown, the head of the nfl players association, demori smith, said pro football is no longer just about a player's performance on the field. >> if we do want to get this right, we will have to engage in a larger conversation then just a football player. and to have a conversation about what it means to be the husband, the son, the father the person in your community. >> now, peterson's first court appearance is october 8th. according to the associated press, his agent says placing him on the exempt list what

quote, the best possible outcome, given the circumstances. >> all right, dean thank you. some schools are closed this morning in northeast pennsylvania where the hunt for a gunman who killed a state trooper is narrowing. police say the suspect, eric matthew frien, is armed and dangerous. they call him a survivalist with anti-government views. don dahler is in lords valley pennsylvania, the staging area for the man hunt. >> this is the terrain, heavily wooded, sparsely populated. frien is suspected of shooting one officer and and fatally shooting an officer last week. police say he became a suspect when they found his jeep stuck in the mud near where the shootings occurred. hundreds have been combing the northeastern pennsylvania forest in search of a suspected killer. >> this fella is extremely

dangerous. we have no idea where he is in the community. >> investigators say 31-year-old eric matthew frien has survivalist training and a history of anti-law enforcement views. >> he has made statements about wanting to kill law enforcement officers and also to commit mass acts of murder. >> frien is believed to be armed with an ak-47 and 308 semiautomatic rifle. police found a stash of supplies he apparently left behind. >> cam flannelouflage face paint, hooded sweatshirts, military gear. >> officials say fie erien gunned them down during a shift change at a barracks outside scranton. the suspect had been living in his parent's house where investigators found casings matching those from the shooting. and in his room a manual titled, sniper training and

enforcement. his father told police his son is a trained shooter who, quote, doesn't miss. >> he has a very strong feelings about law enforcement. seems to be very angry with a lot of things that are going on in our society. >> frien evidently made statements of that nature many times over the years but no one ever reported it. he faces several charges, including first degree murder and homicide of a law enforcement officer. charlie. >> don thanks. president obama visited the pentagon central command in tampa to discuss his plan to destroy isis. a poll out this morning shows 57% of americans do not think the president is being tough enough with isis. 41% approve of the way he is handling terrorism. that is a new low for this poll. in may of 2011 after osama bin laden was killed 72% approved of the president's handling of terrorism. nancy cordes is on capitol hill where military leaders say the isis strategy may need to expand

beyond air strikes. nancy, good morning. >> good morning. the president's stated policy has been no u.s. troops on the ground period. and yet here on capitol hill his top military adviser says he doesn't want to rule it out. in a senate hearing tuesday, joint chiefs chairman martin dempsey said right off the bat u.s. ground troops might be needed in the fight against isis. >> if there are threats to the united states, then i being would go back to the president and make a recommendation that may include the use of u.s. military ground forces. >> for example, dempsey said american forward air controllers on the ground in iraq could call in air strikes that would help eyeiraqi forces retake the city of mosul from isis fighters. >> it could very well be part of that particular mission to provide close combat advising or accompanying for that mission. >> the white house called that a hypothetical scenario and said the president's position hasn't changed. the house will vote today on

authorizing the president to arm and train moderate syrian rebels to go after isis on the ground. >> there are only bad choices left in syria and iraq. >> the measure is expected to pass but even though who plan to vote yes worry that the u.s. will be arming rebels who could at some point turn against us. >> despite reservations and question we must take action. the threat is real and isis must be confronted now. >> opponents of the plan many of them democrats, liken the rebel groups to the mujahadin in afghanistan who the u.s. armed in the 1980s, only to watch them morph into the taliban. >> make no mistake about it we have given arms to every element in this conflict with the notion that somehow the enemy of our enemy is our friend. and at the end of the day, we have no friends in this conflict. >> democratic leader nancy pelosi spent the day privately addressing some of those

democratic concerns. and secretary of state john kerry will likely try to do so publicly when he testified before a senate committee at 11:30 app pacific time today. >> all right, nancy, thank you. former defense secretary robert gates says the president will have to use u.s. ground troops to successfully defeat isis. in his first interview about the terror group gates told correspondent anna warner that he has some concerns about the president's strategy. >> the reality is they're not going to be able to be successful against isis strictly from the air or strictly depending on the iraqi forces of the peshmerga or the sunni tribes acting on their own. so there will be boots on the ground if there's to be any hope of success in the strategy. and i think that by continuing to repeat that the president in effect traps himself. i'm also concerned that the goal

has been stated as degrade and destroy. or degrade and defeat isis. we've been at war with al qaeda for 13 years. we have dealt them some terrible blows. including the killing of osama bin laden. i don't thing anybody would say after 13 years we've destroy order defeated al qaeda. and so i think to promise that we're going to destroy isis or isil sets a goal that may be unattainable. as opposed to devastating it. or as the vice president would put it following them to the gates of hell. and dealing them terrible blows that prevent them from holding territory. those are probably realistic goals. >> and we're going to hear more from secretary gates in our next hour. he and the ceo of uber talk

about a joint venture to help 50,000 veterans. ahead on "cbs this morning." a new york state man is accused of trying to recruit fighters for isis. bob orr is in washington where he says the man also tried to recruit in the united states. >> this is the case of an american who prosecutors say wanted to help isis. barak has been indicted for attempting to aid the terror group. according to court paper, elfgeeh attempted to recruit. he in all faces seven criminal charges. three counts of attempting to provide support to a foreign terrorist organization and one count of attempting to kill officers and employees of the u.s. government. the monitoring him in

2013. this may he was allegedly arrested for purchasing firearms. prosecutors say he was planning to kill u.s. service mens. but the guns he bought had been rendered inoperable by the fbi. the fbi continues its effort across the country to stop the flow of american fighters to syria. elfgeeh will be arraigned on thursday. hundreds of californiaps are out of their homes as one of the state's worst wildfire seasons rages on. the northern town of weed was hit fast and hard. john blackstone is in weed where residents are counting their heavy losses. john good morning. >> as morning comes in the west here, we can see the full destruction that was caused in this historic lumber town as wind-blown embers rained down on it. this is all that remains of weed's library. the fire that caused all this destruction is still only 25%

contained. the community meeting last night. officials say they've never seen such dry conditionings. the fast-moving fire forced about half of its 3,000 residents to evacuate. >> i went out in my backyard because it smelled like our house was on fire. in a matter of minutes, it was engulfed. >> houses churches leveled to nothing. pink retardant marked those saved. >> we never would have expected something to rip through our hometown. nothing like this. >> officials say 150 homes and businesses were damaged or destroyed. no deaths reported. >> eptseptember, october, november typically very busy fire behavior months. that's usually when we have our santa ana winds. >> santa ana and diablo winds are often strong etest in the mountains. wind speeds hit 40 miles per

hour. >> it makes for some very erratic and unpredictable fire behavior. when it's like that you can't predict where the fire's going to move. >> 300 miles south of weed outside sacramento the king fire is still just 5% contained. >> it's so dry, the fuel is so continuous, it is very difficult to draw a line in the sand to stop this fire. >> look at that. >> more than 1,500 firefighters worked well into the night to try to quell the monstrous flames. 1,600 homes there are threatened. the fire in weed had been propelled by high winds. those winds are expected to continue today with gusts over 40 miles an hour. but later in the day, firefighters are lucky to get a break with cooler temperatures and lower winds. >> john thanks. fire is not the only weather problem in the west. tropical storm odile is expected to dump record setting rain across large sections of the southwest.

hours. that red and yellow you see is three or more inches of rainfall. that's albuquerque ross well midland, tucson. the average annual rainfall in tucson is less than one foot. we are expecting inging up to 6 inches of rainfall just this week. then the tropical moisture gets pulled up north, places as far away as minneapolis will receive tropical rain from a storm that hit cabo just a few days ago. >> it is 7 s-:19. did the u.s. threaten the parents of americans held by isis? some partly cloudy skies as to start out the day, a lot of clouds near the coastline right now. we take you to ocean beach where you see a lot of clouds sticking around all day. got some big changes coming our way. high pressure going to break down not before leaving a warm day in most parts of the bay area but look off the coastline a chance of showers developing later on this evening in the north bay but the better paffet

deaths of these veterans. but the line down played any connection 22 enpatient deaths and delays in care and according to this whistle-blower it was not in the original draft of the report. >> they said that the wait times didn't cause the deaths. >> correct. >> and that was added? >> yes. >> at the last minute, essentially. >> yes, it was. >> our source who works at va headquarters and who spoke exclusively to cbs news says officials inside the agency asked for a revision of the first draft. that standard practice but in this case the source says it amounted to pressure on the inspector general, richard griffin, to add that line to water down the report. >> the organization was worried that the report was going to damn the organization and, therefore, it was important for them to introduce language that softened that blow. >> the office of inspector general issued a statement calling our whistle-blower wrong, saying quote, there was no pressure from the va to add

this line. the statement adds we did not find sufficient evidence that any delay resulted in death. but the conclusion that no deaths were caused by delays seemed to conflict with the rest of the report. for example, 28 instances of clinically significant delays were found including six deaths. and some of the findings indicated that either trooemt or an appointment for this patient might have changed the outcome. >> he was a good guy, you know. >> the inspector general's finding was also a surprise to some of the families who lost a relative. teddy barnes says his father thomas thomas, navy veteran died while on a secret wait list but no one on the inspector general's officer rve called his family. >> it sounds like they're either trying to cover it up or sugar coat it a little bit because we didn't hear anything about this. >> and now newly released figures show that 293 veterans died not 40 293, while on those secret wait lists. that does not mean the veterans

died from lack of care but some house members are already asking if the phoenix investigation should be reopened. gayle? >> a lot of questions there. >> that's a much bigger number. >> yeah, much bigger number. >> people are paying more attention. we thank you wyatt. ahead on "cbs in morning." scott stein brings the new iphone 6 to studio 57. we get to see it and hold it in person today. they don't land in stores f

disorder as easy as check for diabetes. dr. jeffrey lieberman is a psychiatrist at columbia university medical center. you know where you work. doctor, good to have you here. i heard we can't really call this a game changer but i heard we can say it is promising. >> this is a very exciting study and may be a sign of things to come because historically even though mental illnesses affected human kind for millenia there's no digagnostic tests. you go to your doctor examines you, asks you how you are feeling and do x-ray or take some blood. mental illness, it's all been reporting symptoms and evaluating a person's history. this technology, which is reported in the study, patients with depression is really going to be a game changer when it's applied because it will be the first time that we'll have a laboratory test to confirm the diagnosis for mental illness.

>> you said it would be like trying to find out if you have diabetes without check for glucose. >> that's right. the history of med sane in this case, this is really the path that all fields of medicine have evolved in. prior to the chemical techniques to measure substances in the blood, how do doctors diagnose diabetes, which is basically hyper glycemia. they took some urine from the patient and tasted it. if it tasted sweet they call i'd one thing, if it tasted like water. >> we don't want to do that. >> will it tell you more than simply confirming depression? will it indicate how you might go about treatment or other kinds of -- >> charlie that's a great question. the first benefit will be that it will confirm diagnoses, and it will be exxe indict thepedite the process of making a diagnosis. also, i think there's going to be an attitudal affect in our society because more than

anything else psychiatry has been kind of a step child can, i call it the rodney dangerfield of medical studies, can't get respect. the thing that will change or help to dispel stigma is to have a test which says it's in the brain, it's not just some aspects of the mind. but to your question, these tests will be able to do is parse broad syndrome of depression, which has -- can be caused by different things. you can have depression caused by an chemical imbalance, caused by hormonal disturbance, preor postpartum postpartum, you can have it as result of a head trauma. these tests will be able to parse it into the different subtypes. the third thing is it mayhem predict which treatment to use. >> exciting and new information. dr. lieberman, good to see you. thank you so much. >> my pleasure. yububer wants to put veterans in the driver's seat. gates tells us why he's working

hange that and it's enlisting some top military brass to help with its effort. it's travis's first month as a driver for uber. the 31-year-old military veteran spent seven years in the air force and was deployed to both iraq and afghanistan. when he got out in september 2008 he says finding the right job was tough. >> you kind of feel like a goldfish in a huge sea right? you don't know what to do with yourself. so i definitely had high levels of anxiety.

readjusting has taken a little bit. >> reporter: uber drives their own cars and sets their own skel which he says allows him to attend college and take kay of his daughter. >> we're service-based and we're offering a service to someone. we're helping them get from point a to point b. so it's kind of mission-oriented are. >> uber now wants to bring on 50,000 more veterans just like him by teaming up. the idea isn't just to give it veterans jobs but to help uber hire more quality drivers. the company's ceo, travis kalanick. >> they have a better work ethic. they're out there doing more trips than the average partner. >> you looked at the data? >> oh yeah. we already have thousands of

vets on it today. >> he says uber will take lesser commission and help them buy cars at better interest rates. they're teaming up with an all-star military advisory board chaired by former defense secretary robert gates. >> the reason that companies like uber want vets is because of the qualities the vets bring to the workplace. they're disciplined, they're team players, they're easily trainable, they're flexible they're loyal, and they're reliable. >> uber has faced a wave of recent criticism from taxi cab associations and unions who say they operate without the same rules and regulations but kalanick says hiring vets isn't about a public relations move. it's about offering an opportunity. >> why is it better than being a cab driver? >> a cab drive hears to rent a

vehicle for $40,000 a year. there's an inflexibility in how taxi work sort of operates and the economics of the taxi industry make it so that it's very hard to make a decent living. >> the most important thing from my standpoint is that the veteran have a choice of some jobs to go to rather than being stuck with one option. and uber is for a certain kind of those veterans who want to be on their own. >> now, uber says it conducts background checks on all of its records and a check of driving records that they clay is more rigorous than that of the taxi industry. gayle? >> thank you, an nachlt i'm thinking of another reason to sign up for uber. >> i agree. probably a lot of doctor appointments. it's a win/win. >> thank you, anna. we'll be right back.

end of that android phone spectrum. fits in your hand but it's more like a tiny tablet. this is bigger but fits more into the screen. apple is catching up on screen size but they both have a lot of the same features. you're not looking at too much different but you're looking at better battery life. >> it's a pain that battery life. >> that's the thing. several hours more which could make the difference but it hasn't taken a quantum leap where you're surprised like the matchbook area you say it's going to be helpful. it has optical image stabilization. if you're a hard core photographer, that's an important feature but for a lot of people, this is going to do the trick. >> explain the demand. >> i think you're waiting for a new design. year after year apple takes an two-year leap into design. last year's was good but looked

the same. people wanted a bigger screen phone. plus a lot of people bought the 5 and they were waiting for their contract to expire so you have probably a larger group of people hoping to cross other and this appeals more to android users. thing this is a phone that matches that. >> am i going to have to buy a new charger? >> thankfully not. they're sticking with lightning for this. it charges relatively quickly. some wonder about wireless charging. maybe in the future but thankfully they're sticking with lightning. >> bee beyond size are there new features on the iphone plus 6? >> both features which we're still waiting for is apple pay. it's coming in october and we're going to review that when it's available but it's actually maybe the killer an on this because these are the first apple devices that will work with this. that will work at contactless places. the rest is gentle upgrades. processing is better. >> charlie said listen we
