>> it was just no, too much milk, too much milk, too much milk. >> reporter: this morning, the president tweeted we will not stand for this. the dairy farmers are hoping he's just not crying over spilled milk. first daughter ivanka trump went to germany for a meeting of business women and government. >> reporter: ivanka trump had come to a high-powered conference in berlin to champion the cause of working women. but she came with baggage, her father's baggage. >> he's been a tremendous champion of supporting families. >> reporter: at that, some members of the audience away

from the microphone began to groan. >> i need to address one more point. >> reporter: mind the audience's skepticism, the moderator asked, stem toward the attitude donald trump had to women in the past, seeming to go to the video about groping women. >> i certainly heard the criticism from the media. and that's been perpetuated, but i know from personal experience. >> reporter: president trump had also championed women's rights, his daughter said. german chancellor angela merkle had welcomed ivanka trump here. at least, says joseph braumle, that was the plan. >> i think that was a smart move by our chancellor. she made it clear, we want to have contact and maybe if it takes two women to contain a

radical man, so be it. >> reporter: ivanka trump later downplayed the incident, saying politics is politics. but scott, the first daughter's first foray onto the international stage had its rough moments. >> mark phillips at the brand brandenburg gate. president trump is strengthening the area around the korean peninsula. we spoke with mark hill. hill is the dean of the university of denver's joseph corvill school. in terms of american lives is north korea a threat or an irritant? >> it's a threat. it's a threat. first of all, we have some 28,000, 38,000 americans in south korea, but we have to understand, this is an agreement

we have. we are duty-bound, treaty-bound to come to south korea's defense. should the north koreans attack. if we have to go in there, we would be in the middle of the fight. so you bet. it's a threat to our lives. >> you led the american envoy negotiating. what do you know about his father? >> his father seemed to care what we thought. and what distinguishes his son, he doesn't seem to care what any of us think, and he's certainly not been interested in any, any phase of negotiation. >> is he sane? >> sane from the point of view of running that country, of making sure that he's consolidated power, making sure that everyone works for him, yeah, yeah. >> we know that the north koreans have been successful in building missiles and successful in detonating nuclear weapons in

tests. the real trick is putting those two things together. what are the chances that the north koreans are close? >> you know, very hard to say. but the feeling is that within the next four years , they coul have a missile system with a nuclear warhead that would be credible. whether it would finally work when they pushed the button, hard to say, but it would be credible. and any president would have to consider that as a real threat. >> former ambassador chris hill. coming up, keep your eyes on the road and hands on the wheel. now, there's an app for that. later, as the water grows, drivers bailed.

zinker, a 28-year-old cbs executive who had worked his way through school doing radio broadcasts. >> i said i've never done television. they said you're going to do the cbs morning news, then they said stay around and do the midday news. >> and with about an hour of experience under his belt, he was called in to fill in for cronkite. >> planes have been using a massive bomb. >> he got more than 3,000 fan letters. >> it's the standard case of the understudy. the star goes out for whatever reason, and an understudy nobody's ever heard of sits in, sits in the chair, gets good reviews. >> anchor was born. >> i do think they almost felt, he hit the lottery, maybe i could hit the lottery some day. >> on the 13th day, the strike was settled. after weeks at the pinnacle of network news, zinker was told he

had a great future ahead of him. >> that's when i decided to go to boston and do the news. >> bitten by the anchor bug, he tried his hand at local tv, and years later he returned to cbs briefly in a "60 minutes" cameo, in his new career, training executives to master the public spotlight. >> he travels the country, preaching the gospel according to zism nker. >> now a half century after zinker made headlines, he is a footnote. >> tv trivia for 100. >> arnold zenker replaced this newsman. >> this has been the cbs evening news with arnold zenker substituting for walter cronkite. that's the overnight news

for this wednesday. for some of you the news continues, for others, check back later for cbs morning news and cbs this morning. from the broadcast center in new york city, i'm scott pelley. this is the "cbs overnight news." i'm don dahler. president trump has summoned all members of the senate today. tensions are rising in asia. the north is expected to conduct another nuclear test. an armada is south of the korean peninsula. and trump is being asked to show restraint. adriana diaz has the story from beijing. >> reporter: president trump is also ramping up his war of words. monday he said kim jong un is not a strong militarily as he says and also blamed the

international community for not doing more to rein him in. >> the status quo in north korea's also unacceptable. >> reporter: at the white house on monday, president trump scolded members of the u.n. security council for falling short in their dealings with north korea. >> the council must be prepared to impose additional and stronger sanctions. >> reporter: in a show of force, intended to send a warning to north korea, the uss carl vinson strike group along with two japanese destroyers are rapidly approaching the korean peninsula. there they'll be joined by south korean ships. the uss michigan, a nuclear-powered submarine also arrived in the port city of pusan today. angered by the buildup and threat of further sanctions, the regime has stepped up its rhetoric, unveiling new weapons while lashing out at its adversaries. north korean media called the movement extremely dangerous, saying the u.s. should consider

carefully any catastrophic consequence. >> this raises the stakes. >> reporter: analyst jonathan polak says the white house needs to proceed cautiously. >> with the united states and others talking far too loose lay of the prospects of a preemptive strike, that's what would trigger retaliatory actions by north korea. >> reporter: it's also been three days since tony kim was detained at north korea's airport. >> we could stumble needlessly into what would be the biggest crisis in east asia since the united states intervened in the korean war in 1950. >> reporter: to avoid that, president trump is working closely with china. he's already spoken with china's president twice in the past two weeks. first daughter and white house adviser, ivanka trump continues her visit to germany. she's taking part in an international woman's summit. but it wasn't all smiles and

handshakes. ivanka actually got booed by the audience when she described her father as quote a tremendous champion of supporting families. mark phillips is in berlin. >> reporter: this is no ordinary visit by an ordinary white house official. this is three visits in one by ivanka trump the first daughter, the presidential adviser and the businesswoman. it's complicated, like the state of u.s./german relations right now. on the face of it, ivanka trump has come to berlin for a high-powered conference on promoting the role of working women. it's one of her pet issues. but she's also here because angela merkel knows an opportunity when she sees one. when the german chancellor went to washington to meet ivanka's father, the atmosphere bordered on icy. so when angela merkel met ivanka and invited her to the berlin's

women conference it was more than playing to the first daughter's interests. political analysts say it was a way to use a side door to get into the white house. >> you take what you get. >> reporter: and what do you think you get with her? >> you get access to donald trump and maybe a moderating effect to donald trump, because he's also surrounded by people who are less moderate and seem to be more radical. >> reporter: ivanka, the special adviser to the president, did tell gayle king that when it comes to trying to influence her father on issues that she cares about, she's not shy. >> this particular title was about giving critics the comfort that i'm holding myself to the highest ethical standard. but i'll weigh in with my father on, on the issues i feel strongly about. >> reporter: but this visit isn't about issues. it's about trying to jump start a stalled relationship. we actually don't know what

ivanka trump's position is on the issues of contention between washington and berlin right now. russia, nato refugees. we do know that the trump administration has yet to appoint its own ambassador to germany, so that right now go terms of high-level diplomacy, ivanka trump is it. a lot of your favorite tv shows could be in reruns this fall. the writers guild has voted to authorize a strike, and that could be bad news for hollywood. >> shows like the roseanne barr show, the gilligan's island show were shot right here in this studio. sound stages like this have never been busier. 455 of them were built just this season compared to, that's more tan about six years ago, more than double than about six years ago that is. right now, wrietders are saying we're seeing more content coming from hulu and netflix and they want hollywood to pay for the new reality. for now, it's all smiles on the

late night talk shows. >> injected pieces of golf balls, let them play through. >> reporter: but all those jokes come from union writers who could soon be putting their pens down and putting the shows in jeopardy. more than 6300 of this members voted by a margin of 96% to authorize a march on the picket lines if a deal isn't reached with the producers union before the current contract expires on may 1st. the fall lineup could also take a hate. >> i skipped kindergarten. >> reporter: tv writer betty carr has worked on shows like "private practice." the writers are paid per episode. a traditional broadcast series runs22-24 episodes, but now shows on cable or basic streaming services run an

average of just 12 episodes. the shows are often shot to look more like a movie, taking longer in production, which keeps writers tied up for the same amount of time while making less money. >> the average income for writers has gone down, 23%. it's about not being able to sustain yourself. >> reporter: wrietders are asking for higher script fees. bigger residuals from streaming media and larger contributions to their health plans. when unionized writers went on strike ten years ago, it lasted more than three months, halting production on tozs of tv shows and films. it also cost the industry at least $2 billion. in a statement released monday night, the producers alliance said they remain committed to reaching a deal but warned the 2007 writers strike hurt everyone. writers lost more than it $287 million in compensation that was never recovered. >> hopefully it doesn't come to that.

there's a place off the eastern shore of canada they call iceberg alley. each year, hundreds of large bergs float by, melting as they drift their way south. but this year, there's a bumper crop. and it's attracting a lot of tourists, scientists and jeff glor. >> reporter: we're off the eastern-most part of north america. the canadian coast guard alone has been called 85 times this season to help ships in trouble. but this is a team effort. and the goal is to make sure those emergencies never happen in the first place, which is why we went up with the international ice patrol to look for dangers below. the c-130j in hangar at the st. john's airport comes out only when conditions are right.

in newfoundland and labrador, that is not often. as we boarded, we saw how everyonee every moment matters for the international ice patrol. >> all of this is to get a general overview. >> reporter: gabriele mcgraw is the u.s. coast guard commander leading the patrol. a coalition of 17 nations first formed in 1913 after the titanic's maiden voyage was doomed by an iceberg. >> any vessel hiding oeeding ou warnings has been safe. >> reporter: this is about identifying and tracking the biggest and most dangerous formations. >> what it will do is track the sea temperature and the currents at the depth of 50 meters, which we consider to be the driving depth of the iceberg. >> reporter: signals from a buoy can be tracked immediately from the patrol's operating center in

connecticut. 660 icebergs right now. you typically see how many this time of year? >> on average, at the end of april, our number's about 212. >> reporter: so around three times as mm rigany right now. >> exactly. >> reporter: this year's were brought in part by two extraordinary weather systems in march. >> a low pressure system that moved south of the island of newfoundland and it pulled those icebergs down south through the labrador current. we went from 37 to 455 in the shipping lanes. >> reporter: it produced spectacular images. there it is from up high. but also loosened all this sea ice which has clogged the world's busiest shipping lane. >> reporter: ross is the head of

standards for maersk. >> we really try to avoid the areas of icebergs. it is definitely something that needs to be considered in safe navigation. >> reporter: the waves of ice are crippling the fishing business and stranding large ferries. the patrol planes can fly just hundreds of feet above the ocean's surface to give spotters a clear view. there's also a 360 degree radar under the nose. what does the radar show? ? it will actually automatically pick up targets. >> reporter: the sights can be sublime. they draw tourists from around the world to this unique island province. but as commander mcgraw knows, the danger is ever print. the worst-case scenario you're trying to prevent is another titanic. >> exactly. that's something that we keep in our minds every day is the disaster that happened in 1912.

and we strife to produce the best nchx possible. >> reporter: they found 382 icebergs. and keep in mind. peak season is not until may and june. the "cbs overnight news" will be right back. ♪ ♪

professional careers searching for that perfect sound. then there are people who search the world for the perfect sound of silence. lee cowan found one of those. >> the trail is narrowing and will continue to narrow as we go up. >> reporter: it may sound a little odd, but gordon hempton truly feeds his soul through the music of his ears. to him, nothing is more nourishing than pure, unpolluted, natural quiet. >> coming out here in the quiet's almost taking a vitamin for you. >> vitamin q. you can't buy it, but you can have it. sound of nature is very

definitely an endangered species. >> reporter: we first met gordon 27 years ago. >> we've also compromised on our ability to sense peace. >> reporter: when sunday morning followed him around as he went about recording silence. >> you get down low, and you can here the wo, wo, wo, wo. >> reporter: he calls himself the sound tracker. he's been all over the world, listening to nature's soundscapes. and after all those years. >> all right, here it is, lee, the boardwalk. >> reporter: claims to have found one of the quietest spots in the lower 48 states. it's in the middle of the hoh rainforest in washington's olympic park. getting there is an adventure in being wet. the average rainfall here is anywhere between 12 and 14 feet.

yes, feet. but a soggy remoteness is actually the point. gordon considers its silence so sacred, he won't allow anyone to utder a word. >> so we get a little further, i'm going to look at you. i'm going to give you the look, and that means no whispering even. >> reporter: okay. >> we're just going to go listen to the silence. >> reporter: he calls it one square inch of silence. a project he started on earth day, 12 years ago. it's his auditory line in the sand. a place he's trying to protect from all outside noise. you might think that'd be a pretty easy task way out here in the middle of nowhere. but -- >> there is no middle of nowhere if you take into account the sky. >> reporter: as we talked, just outside his one square inch of silence, we heard no fewer than five jets in less than an hour.

>> listen what happens as that jet passes. and grows louder and louder to the distant sound of the hoh which defines this valley against the mountain side. >> reporter: you just don't hear it anymore. >> it disappears. >> reporter: even the raindrops i can't hear anymore. >> yeah, you can't hear the raindrops. >> reporter: to gordon, it's only getting worse. >> i think it would be very difficult in the continental united states to find a place where you could go a day without hearing a noise or even an hour without hearing noise. >> reporter: the national park services natural sounds and night skies division. yes, there really is such a thing. over the last decade, its scientists have placed hundred dollars -- hundreds of microphones all over the country. surveys show over 90% of the people who come to commune with nature come just as much for their ears as their eyes. >> it's critical for people, for

the quality of our experience, for the quality of our health to provide these quiet places in the landscape where we can take refuge from the trials and stresses of every day life and immerse ourselves in the natural world that's a little bit kinder and gentler to us. >> reporter: just the noise we humans make, he says, is making it harder to find those places. and it's having real consequences for wildlife as well. >> you know, if you're the mouse trying to avoid being eaten, if your hearing is masked by noise, that means the predator can get that much closer to you before you're aware of it. >> reporter: you might be is discu surprised how far noise can travel. at glacier national park they were getting complaints that they could hear motorcycles, even though there were no roads for miles. >> this is lake mcdonald.

>> reporter: so he was dispatched to see if that was possible. and according to acoustic modeling, it was. >> as it comes out of this pass down towards the lake. the noise will spread all the way across the lake and it might be 15 miles, maybe farther. >> reporter: again, that's one motorcycle. >> even if you don't perceive it as noise, they're still preventing you from hearing all the other sounds that we would like to preserve for you. >> so we try to record red-legged frogs. >> reporter: bernie krauss is trying to preserve nature sounds, too. in fact, he's got some 5,000 hours of recordings, all meticulously documented in his studio near napa valley. >> here's the specific chorus of frogs. >> that is really loud. >> reporter: couldn't hear ourselves talk. what he discovered by sheer

volume is that in many of the places he set up his microphones, the voice of the natural world has changed. >> i've taken a look at my archive recently. and i think that over50% of what i've recorded no longer exists either it's all together silent or it no longer exists in any of its original form. >> reporter: he points to this recording he made in a costa rican rainforest back in 1989. he went back to that same spot at any years later after much of the nearby area had been logged. and this time, it sounded like this. >> it's dramatic. >> reporter: this great animal orchestra, as he calls it, has a lot to say. the early morning chorus of song birds at california's sugar loaf ridge state park is one of his

favorites. >> what these critters are doing is telling us how they're feeling about this particular time and place. and it's a narrative. it's a story. >> reporter: a story bernie says is being composed by nature every day. we just need stop and listen. it used to the environmental protection agency did that. but in the '80s, the office of noise abatement is closed, and with it most of the federal government's ears, save the national park service, which leaves the listening largely to folks like bernie, and of course gordon. when we left him at his one square inch of silence, he was dill gently taking notes and every once in a while smiling at the tiniest of sounds and wincing at the ones he wishes weren't there at all. >> we save what we love at any cost. so when we fall back in love

some kids won't let anything stand in their way. steve hartman met one on the road to the basketball court. >> reporter: every week he set himself up for disappointment. every week, 13 year old jamarian styles came to this community center in boca raton, florida. and every week he was disappointed. >> every day, they would start picking teams, and i would be left out. you can break someone's heart like that. >> reporter: the problem was obvious to everyone but jamarion. he lost his hands and most of his arms due to a rare bacterial infection when he was an infant. what about soccer? have you heard of that sport?

>> every day. >> reporter: why don't you play soccer? >> you would think i would be good at soccer, i'm really not. i'm horrible. >> reporter: which is why on the first day of class here at eagle's landing school he took his task to the coach, said he wanted to be on the team this year. >> i said great, make sure you try out. >> reporter: what were you thinking? >> this man has no arms, how is he going to play basketball. he told me i've never been on a team before. even if i don't play, i just want to be on the team. how could i say no to that. >> reporter: that's how the eagles got their first armless basketball player. jamarion quickly earned a reputation as the hardest worker on the squad. >> he was usually the first one in the gym, the last one to leave. >> reporter: still, he sat on the bench most of the season until last month. coach put him in the game with about six minutes left. and when he eventually got the ball on the far side of the

court, everyone yelled "shoot it", so he did. and sank a three pointer. and if you didn't quite see it, don't worry, shortly after that, he got the ball again, this time on the near side for another three-pointer. at the buzzer. jamarion style. the kid no one would pick was now everyone's hero. needless to say, today jamarian can play all he wants at the community center. he just maid the volleyball team and has every intention of playing football next year. really, the only thing he won't play is the victim. if i could wave a magic wand right now and give you your arms back right now, would you want them? >> i don't need them. >> reporter: you don't need them? >> no. >> reporter: who needs hands when you have this kind of touch. steve hartman on the road in
