welcome to "cbs this morning." norah o'donnell is off. kristine johnson is with us. thank you for being here. >> thank you. the death toll is climbing in china after massive fire balls fill the sky. >> oh, my god! >> a series of catastrophic explosions ripped through a warehouse. the blast killed at least 44 people. more than 500 are hurt. the shock waves are felt miles away. >> die light revealing destruction. a number of people are still missing. seth doane is in china. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. among the dead are at least a dozen firefighters. many more are missing. the fire is still burning behind me. the massive explosion had the power of three tons and 21 tons of tnt.

they ripped through the industrial zone where toxic gases and chemicals are stored. the explosions turned the night sky a vivid orange. first one ball of fire, then another, even bigger blasts. shock waves knocked people off their feet. surveillance video shows doors blowing back. hospitals were inundated with hundreds of wounded, some staggering around stunned. i was actually quite far from the explosion site, this heavily bandaged security guard side. the explosions were sparked from a warehouse for hazardous materials. hundreds of cars were left charred. windows shattered in buildings miles away. pointing to his apartment he said he was petrified.

your windows were blown out, can you describe it? i thought it wauz plane crash. my wife and i came out. more than 12 hours later, it is still burning. you can see the smoke billowing. we are seeing gray, black, white smoke and red smoke because of the chemicals. the government suspended fire fighting until a team of check cal experts that assess what hazardous materials were inside. some pictures and posts about the blast have been censored on social media inside china. authorities here try to control the narrative. we are trying to shoot in front of a hospital, not that much, but the police are trying to stop us from shooting. this is what it's like trying to cover a story here in china. eyewitnesses say the explosion felt like earthquakes.

no word, yet, on what caused the blast. top management of the company that owns the warehouse has been detained and china's president is calling for severe punishment to whomever is to blame. kristine? >> a real tragedy. thank you. isis is claiming responsibility for a massive truck bombing in baghdad. it killed at least 60 people and wounded 125. it happened at a popular food market in a shiite neighborhood. the united states is opening a new front in the battle against isis. fighter jets are taking off in a jet to launch strikes in syria. the f-16s left yesterday. last month, turkey agreed to open the base to the american led coalition. support pouring in from around the world for former president, jimmy carter. he announced cancer is spreading through his body.

we are at the emory health care center in atlanta where he will be treated. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, this is the campus of emory health care in atlanta. the type and extent of mr. carter's cancer is still unclear. >> when we first came through -- >> reporter: ever since leaving the white house in 1981, former president turned international humanitarian, jimmy carter is full of energy and vitality. despite mr. carter's advanced age of 90, his announcement of a health crisis came as a shock to many. in a statement, he wrote, recent liver surgery revealed i have cancer now in other parts of my body. i will be rearranging my schedule to undergo treatment by physicians at emory health care. the former president cut short a

visit due to a bad cold. early last week, he revealed he had surgery to remove a small mass. michelle and i send our best wishes. jimmy, you're as resilient adds they come. along with the rest of america, we are rooting for you. >> praising god is praising god for who god is. >> reporter: president carter's family has a history of pancreatic cancer. in a memoir "a few life" he said a father and three siblings died of the disease. he wrote a note to self speaking to a 12-year-old jimmy carter. >> opportunities throughout your life. but don't worry, so many people want to help you along the way. >> reporter: mr. carter does plan to give a medical update soon. he says a public statement will be made when facts are known,

possibly next week. charlie? >> thanks, mark. d. david agus is in los angeles. good morning. >> good morning, charlie. >> in the context of 90 years old and the cancer history in the family, what do we know about the expectations and the cancer from president carter? >> cancer that is spread is not curable. we don't know if it started in the liver or started in the colon, the lung or elsewhere. but, therapy can lengthen life and hopefully make it better by reducing symptoms. the only way they would do treatment is if they think it will benefit him. >> what are the options for treatment dr. agus? >> depends on the type of cancer, chemotherapy, molecular therapy or the new immunotherapy.

we really need to know the details. the biopsy was a week ago. they know the details. they will announce it along with the game plan. >> as we heard, president carter has a family history of pancreatic cancer. he wrote i have had regular x-rays, cat scans and regular blood analysis. here we are today now. how might that affect his outcome? >> he has a greater than 50 times risk of pancreatic cancer. he's very high risk. also, he said in a recent interview a couple years ago, he stopped the screening several years ago. undergoing the routine c.a.t. scans and mris going on earlier in life. we know catching cancer early matters and we can have a better chance of treating the disease.

we can prevent diseases like pancreatic lowering with chemo treatment or drugs like aspirin. i'm sure he was on these. >> he's been a nonsmoker as well. hopefully that plays a positive factor. dr. david agus, thank you. >> thank you. inspectors will be on the scene of a ceiling collapse. several people were hurt during a concert last nilgt. ashley roberts of our maply station, wcco, is outside the club. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. this could have been a lot worse. this music venue has been a staple of the minneapolis music scene for more than 40 years. on wednesday night, that scene turned from rock 'n' roll to chaos. debris from the ceiling rained down on concert goers in minneapolis on wednesday night before a stunned crowd of nearly 1,000 people.

people ran toward the club's exit as the building was evacuated. two people rushed to the hospital. a number of others received minor injuries. >> some of the ceiling came down and hit myself. one girl we were helping was knocked unconscious and hit on the left side of her forehead. the other one was totally buried. we got her out of there. >> reporter: sources say there was a leak in the ceiling of the concert hall and the vibrations from the band caused the creeling to collapse. >> i was pushing people out of the way. >> lights flashing. >> reporter: prince made it his regular gig in the '80s. it served at the set for the 1984 movie, "purple rain." first avenue will be closed today as officials inspect the structural integrity of the building. charlie? >> thanks, ashley. this morning hillary

clinton's private e-mail server is in the hands of the fbi. the server was handed over wednesday afternoon since presidential rivals are hammering her for not turning it over sooner. we have in washington where officials say top secret information proved that server. good morning. >> good morning. no surprise, it is the topic every republican candidate is talking about on the campaign trail as clinton's team tries to down play the significance of handing over the server. stock have a private server in your home, i mean, come on, man. >> reporter: republican candidates were too eager to change the subject from trump to clinton. >> hillary clinton would be a good deceiver. she cannot be trusted to be the commander in chief. >> reporter: in an interview, rubio calls clinton ir irresponsib irresponsible. businesswoman carley fiorina

told cbs news, clinton lied. >> secretary of state, two years after she leaves it department suddenly admits she has a private e-mail server in her basement and she decided which e-mails to destroy. it's unbelievable. >> reporter: congressman darrel issa called for a criminal investigation. for five months, clinton resisted called to hand over her server. >> i believe i have met all my responsibilities. the server will remain private. >> reporter: a campaign spokesman says clinton reversed her stance in an effort to be helpful because of disagreement in the intelligence community and information in the e-mail. the intelligence community and inspector general say twos of the 40 e-mails should have been marked top secret. the state department says it isn't clear. >> looking at these kinds of issues, sometimes it's black and white.

oftentimes, it's not. >> reporter: clinton stayed out of sight on wednesday. her team sent this letter designed to reassure supporters. to be clear, there is no criminal inquiry into hillary's e-mail or e-mail server. that two-page letter calls the controversy nonsense, even as it insists clinton is actively working with the justice department to make sure they have what they need. gayle? >> thank you, nancy. donald trump is denouncing the nuclear deal with iran. the front-runner says the agreement gives iran too much clout. >> it is so important that they not have nuclear weapons. they will have them and surrounding countries will get them, too. you are going to have a nuclear holocaust. >> rand paul is in a tv ad and uses trumps words. >> i have been around for a long

time. it just seems that the economy does better under the democrats than the republicans. >> as you might expect, donald trump had a response. he told "the washington post" rand paul is doing so poorly in the polls he has to revert to old footage of me discussing opinions i no longer hold. it does deserve a chuckle. china's central bank says there's no reason why their currency should continue to fall. the yuan dropped 3% against the dollar. boost the economy and make exports cheaper for foreign buyers. it sent u.s. markets into a tail spin and stocks rebounded and closed nearly flat. this morning, the e.p.a. suspended field work on mines

while they inspect the gold key mine spill. water conditions are improving. some states, though, are skeptical. we are in durango with the concerns over abandoned mines. good morning. >> reporter: well, good morning. the waters here seem to be improving, really every day. in fact, the governor's office says the state's health department is recommending to reopen the river. that is good news for durango residents. it will be up to the sheriff and local officials to make that decision. federal officials say new testing shows the river is returning to normal after millions of toxic sludge gushed into the water. e.p.a. does this work all the time. i cannot tell you how heart breaking it is, is a good word, i think. >> reporter: wednesday, the

e.p.a. director spoke at an event and toured for the first time. colorado state officials said the city of durango could improve. with the plume still churning, the attorney general from utah, new mexico and colorado are remaining cautious. >> as pretty as the river looks to us and as beautiful of a day as it is in durango, colorado, this is not the end of the story. >> reporter: the disaster drew attention to the overabundant abandoned mines. >> i know of at least four other mine blowout that is happened in the past 20 years. the difference is this is much larger and happened when someone was working on site. >> he's been working on mining issue 20s years. he says the e.p.a. could have avoided this blowout. >> they could have taken another

step. >> reporter: it could have been preventable? >> may have presented it. they would have taken a different approach had they known how much water was back there. >> reporter: the water is getting back to the preincident levels. people downstream are concerned. utah's governor declared a state of emergency as the plume heads down to lake powell. gayle? >> thank you. tom brady and the man that suspended him meet in court.

return to normal relations with cuba. >> you fear they could expedite you. >> why not have your day in court and fight the charges? >> i could get a fair trial.

california's drought crisis. the united states restores relations from cuba. should american fugitives hiding on the island face charges here? one man in hiding more than 40 years, ahead. the wall street journal says vice president joe biden is using part of his vacation in south carolina this week to consider a presidential bid. some democrats are pressing him to enter. they want the party to have another option because of the controversy surrounding hillary clinton. biden is expected to announce his decision next month. the detroit free press talks about a spike in gas prices. it's normal capacity is more than 413,000 barrels a day. the reduced supply could raise midwest gas prices between 30 three more women accusing bill cosby of sexual assault.

morning, productive talks over tom brady deflategate suspension. they huddled wednesday with a federal judge. they are working to reach a settlement. the attorneys answered questions in court. good morning. >> good morning, charlie. most settlement talks were handled behind closed doors. for nearly 1.5 hours, they are grilled in open court by the judge that pointed out the weaknesses in the nfl and brady's argument. time and again the judge asked nfl attorney daniel nash whether there was evidence proving tom brady knew two former patriots deflated the game balls used at the afc championship game. where is the evidence or the scheme or conspiracy specifically for this one game? nash conceded there was no smoking gun, but pointed to text messages saying brady testified

the staffers would not act on their own. the judge shot back, is that it? judge berman spoke of the over 200 page report by ted wells that concluded it is more probable than not that he was aware of the inappropriate activity. berman told nash, i'm not sure i understand what in the world that means. gabe feldman is director of the law program and nfl analyst. what did you make of what was going on? >> the judge asked both sides difficult question, not to show he thought one side was going to win or lose. both sides has risks. the idea was to pressure them into thinking about the settlement. >> he had skeptical questions about kessler, the lawyer defending brady. he asked whether it was possible that staffers would have tampered with the game ball without brady's knowledge and why brady destroyed his cell

phone in the middle of the investigation. kessler told berman, you are right adding brady concluded it should have been done a different way. both brady and nfl commissioner roger goodell said nothing following the first day of talks. >> brady is unwilling to take more than a fine and the league is unwilling to take anything less than a suspension. the biggest obstacle is they are so far apart. >> the nfl and brady will be back in the same courthouse next week to continue negotiations. judge berman cautioned both sides he has not made up his mind either way. if they can't agree to compromise, he's prepared to hold a trial and the whole process could last years. gayle? >> so it continues. thank you, anna. the patriots superstar is sending social media into a frenzy this morning. his image became part of the movie "e.t." on mount rushmore.

the artist is getting hammered. she understands it was not her best effort. i apologize for not making him look pretty enough to the world. tom brady is a very good looking guy. i did a wide shot with a lot of people in it. it was a big composition. tom brady was a tiny head in that composition. >> she's been a courtroom artist 35 years. she says it a hard to sketch anyone who is famous and good looking. >> i never thought good looking people were hard to sketch. >> easier, right? >> i did. >> she has a good sense of humor with it. she's seeing the whole twitterverse. the question of the amazing sight in california's drought. we showed you the shade balls yesterday. they learned how they could help the state bounce back from the water emergency.

>> reporter: with lots of concern these days about waste polluting water, ift was surprising to see tens of thousands of blastic balls dumped intentionally into the water. how does floating a bunch of blackballs save water? >> it forms a barrier. it's a tight weave. it kind of keeps the sunlight off it so evaporation can't occur. >> reporter: the balls were the last of 96 million balls completing an evaporations barrier on the reservoir. it will save 300 million gallons of water a year. >> that's enough water for 2700 average homes in los angeles. >> reporter: the balls cost 36 cents each, covering this reservoir cost almost $35 million. but, a roof would have cost $250 million. by blocking the sun, the balls

do more than stop evaporation. the sunlight can turn water toxic? >> it can mix with the natural organics, grow algae and form byproducts, which are toxic. >> reporter: it's solid out there. i can't walk out there, can i? >> you can't. it's intriguing. if you look close enough, you can see the balls moving. it's motion art out there, if you will. it's kind of bedialling looking at it. there's a lot of intended benefits here. >> reporter: one more benefit, it reminds californians water conservation efforts have to keep rolling along. for "cbs this morning," john, california. hiding in cuba more than four decades now. we spoke to him in havana. >> reporter: about 70 american

freedom may be at risk between the two countries. charlie hill, a former black radical accused of murder has been on the lamb 44 years. he lives on the outskirts of havana, beyond the reach of the fbi, under the protection of the cuban government. this is the place the cuban government gave you? >> yes, this is my house. >> reporter: the 65-year-old lives modestly, but as a free man. >> a great opportunity. i'm grateful to them. they gave me my job. >> reporter: he fled here in 1971 after they hoped to create a separate black country fatally accused 28-year-old new mexico state trooper robert rosenbloom. they hijacked a flight and castro granted them asylum.

what would you say to the trooper? >> it's regrettable when a person's life has to be taken. and that i did not kill officer rosenbloom and that, you know, it's sad. >> reporter: the relations between the u.s. and cuba renewed calls for hill's extra diction. susan that martinez wrote secretary kerry calling hill a terrorist saying this was a chance to finally bring a cop killer to justice. you fear they could extradite you? >> the united states government is constantly trying to extradite me. it's nothing new. if i feel like i could get a fair trial, i will go back. >> reporter: hill is one of 70 american fugitives harbored. cuban dip low e mats say they

will not hand over any political exiles. do you believe the cuban government will keep protecting you? >> yes i do. yes, i do. >> reporter: hill believes he was unfairly targeted because he's a black radical. it would be impossible to get a fair trial. neither the state or justice department would comment. we know that negotiations over some of the fugitives is in the early stages. >> margaret, thank you. reporting from havana. your phone and computer are taking a toll on your eyes. how to reverse the effects. >> i am running for parliament. >> ahead, a whacky campaign video complete with

was it working with david or the story? >> it was david. my agent sent me a script, called me and said we have a couple projects for you to think about. it was with david simon, i said yes. send me a news script and we'll talk about it. >> you said that why? >> some of the greatest of all time. when i was in the valley and he was doing another, so, we have been together for a long time. >> what kind of stories do you want to tell? >> i prefer that it contribute to the argument. i think there are arguments we need to have in this country. they need to be brought forward. so, it's nice to be entertaining. at some point, that's all you are doing, then i feel like shame on me. >> this subject matter is difficult for a lot of americans to discuss.

so, going to hbo about this idea, how hard is it to sell? >> well, we actually auctioned the book 14 years ago. the reason they kept renewing the option, even when other projects got in front of it was sadly the ratio dynamic because we have a hard time talking about it and we failed to address it. it remains constant. it's as relevant today as when we got the book. you hoped it wouldn't be. >> it continues to exist. >> and we haven't solved the problems. >> talk about it. neither of you are afraid to talk about race. so many, they feel uncomfortable or afraid of being branded a racist. why do you want to get it out there? this true story? >> it's an argument we have to have. the reason that i want to do this piece with paul is not only

his work and the fact he has addressed this before in his own work, but face it, it's a piece of public housing and desegregation. it sounds like a room clearer until you understand the narrative behind it. i need a director that can come in and be a little more elegant with the material. the camera had to have more emotion. >> it wasn't available. >> a good actor as the mayor. amazing. tell us about the mayor. >> nick, a very broad character. that's one of the things we wanted to show. that happens. these are people who have this imperfect urge to serve. they aren't perfect. they come in on the wrong side of the issue and realize he

thooz do something and leave. >> he had his moment. there was a moment where he had to step up as he did. the fact that he was an ordinary guy matters more to me than looking like -- the thing i don't buy anymore, we elect the right guy tharks will save us. i think our problems are systemic. we are going to have to solve them. >> public housing in the city. >> something interesting, david, that you spoke about in an interview in a print magazine. it was something that i didn't realize, but you talked about during a new deal and how public housing was born to help people, white families in particular to get back on their feet. yet, when we talk about helping people of color get back on their feet, there's a double standard. >> why are we doing public housing? the truth is, the origins of the segregated america happen not by chance, not by random patterns

of housing. the federal government stepped in with red lining, fha loans and the way they did public housing. it was a plan. there were terrible mistakes made with public housing in the '50s, '60s and '70s, isolating the poor. with careful management, this program helps people out of poverty. >> it's common sense. we don't value that. >> i think this is the beginning of a unique blend. >> maybe oscar, i don't know. >> thank you guys. >> thank you so much. next, a fight to fix the gender gap at the garage. if you are like a lot of people, you know little about

i put a facebook status up six years ago that said my car needs an oil change, but i'm going to get a mani/pedi instead and i did. >> reporter: she used to call herself an auto air head. she's no air head at all. she's a materials engineer and used to work at chemicals giant, dupont. why does your car intimidate you so? >> i think it's almost a culture engrained that women don't understand cars. we are taught young, it's for guys, we don't get it, let a man handle it. i always felt taken advantage of by mechanics. >> reporter: she went back to school, studied to be an auto tech and worked for free on the weekends at a repair shop. a rarity because the car repair world is dominated by men. women make up less than 2% of automotive repair technicians

and mechanics in the united states. >> it gave me an idea to teach women. i started building the vision for a company that was going to educate and empower women. >> reporter: that vision became girls auto clinic. >> women will take care of a $300 bag better than they take care of a $25,000 car. it's a shame. >> reporter: francine edwards relied on her husband to take care of the car. she saved money to take the class. >> need a new filter. while we are in there, we need to change this. if it goes bad, it's another $75 service charge. oh, go ahead, okay. >> reporter: banks aims to take the intimidation factor out of auto repair. >> what happens when you are sick, you can't breathe. it's hard to breathe. you don't feel good. when your air filter is clogged and dirty, your engine can't breathe. >> reporter: she wants to change the way women approach women and

the way mechanics approach women. why just women? >> not just women. i care. i love men, but i cater to women because i'm a woman. i know what it feels like, the stereo type with women. >> how do you know if it's the battery or alternator? >> reporter: everybody asks you a question about their car? >> right. >> reporter: sounds like you have a vote of confidence going here. >> that's the point. to feel good about your car. change the relationship you have with it. the first time i changed my folds, i felt good. i am woman, hear me roar. i felt like i won. i don't want any of you to feel like there's judgment here. >> reporter: for "cbs this morning," michelle miller, philadelphia. >> the more you know, the more you save. >> i think she's good. when all else fails, aaa is there. the all reliable. thanks to michelle miller.
