century, the u.s. flag will fly -- >> the u.s. amends diplomatic relations with cuba. john kerry will visit for the first time in seven decades. senior defense department officials say isis unleashed mustard gas on kurdish forces -- hrc@you'reintrouble.com. >> one e-mail on her private server included talk of a u.s. drone operation. jeb bush defended his brother's decision to invade iraq -- >> taking out saddam hussein turned out to be a good deal. at least 50 chinese workers dead following wednesday's explosion -- rescuers have pulled a survivor from rubble. dozens still missing. sudden, heavy rain in las vegas. thousands left without power. bracing for el nino. this could be one of the wettest and strongest. this is potentially a godzilla new england. it poses a security risk. police are continuing to investigate the death of the 45-year-old after being hit by a

roller coaster. in new jersey -- >> a school bus slam interested a liquor store. all 11 children were taken to the hospital. all that -- >> this west jet flight attendant obviously loves his job. >> if that was the pilot, i'm getting off that plane. there he is, tom brady, on this football field. he has to be pumped. >> brady dealing with off-the-field issues. do you think they checked this morning? >> five or six times. all that matters -- >> a california veteran had to fight for his life. >> he survived a bear attack. >> it's unreal. there he was right on top of me. >> reporter: on "cbs this morning." >> how far is bernie sanders going to go with his underdog moment? >> as a 73-year-old curmudgeon, a threat to hillary clinton? >> you see him in the hallway like, "what up, mr. sanders?" this morning's "eye opener" presented by toyota. let's go [ applause ] .

. -- let's go places. captioning funded by cbs good morning. charlie rose and nora o'donnell are off. we have vinita miy nair and christine. thank you for joining us. the american flag flying over havana. secretary of state john kerry left for the cuban capital this morning. he is the nation's first top diplomat to visit the island in 70 years. >> the flag raising is a symbolic step in normalizing relations between cuba and the united states. margaret brennan is at the newly reopened u.s. embassy in havana for the historic moment. margaret, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. a cold war standoff will end in havana when the stars and stripes fly once again on the island. diplomats say the hard work to repair the relationship is just beginning. the u.s. embassy in havana looks

a lot like it did whether it was shuttered in 1961. fidel castro's close relationship with the soviet union drove the u.s. to cut dipmatic ties. relations then went into a tailspin. the u.s. sponsored a failed invasion and attempted to assassinate fidel castro who then let the soviet union store nuclear missiles on the island aimed at the u.s. >> i have directed the armed forces to prepare for any eventuality. >> reporter: the tit for tat continued for 54 years. now the anti-american billboards are gone. and cubans hope a growing number of american visitors, already up 56% this year, will jump-start their weak economy. >> we don't need to be separated. the world is too global. we need to come together. >> reporter: cuban diplomat nadal who renegotiated the opening of the embassy says the continued u.s. trade embargo limits progress. >> there cannot be normal

relations between the countries when there are economic sanctions that damage the cuban people. and it's in the interest of the american people. >> reporter: cubans still cannot buy goods from the u.s. the castro government's promises of new access like credit card use and the internet have not panned out. many cuban hope the diplomatic opening may improve life. "one doctor told us cuba's already change, and there will be positive change in the future future." this shopkeeper said, "there should be better relations because the people have nothing to do with politics." many here are sick of politics and hope that today's flag raising will be more than symbolic. now the's fists will get underway in just a few -- festivities will gets underway in just a few hours. congressmen and prominent cuban americans are flying down to witness the historic moment. vinita, that includes the same marine guards who shut down the embassy all those years ago.

>> wow. margaret brennan, thank you. the ceremony begins at 9:45 eastern, 8:45 central. when they raise that flag, we'll bring you a special report live from the u.s. embassy in cuba. a report says an e-mail discussing secret cia drones was sent through hillary clinton's private, unsecured server. the associated press says it was one of two messages with top-secret information sent to clinton while she was secretary of state. the fbi took possession of that server on wednesday. we have more from washington where the e-mail controversy is stirring up the presidential race. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. that drone program discussed in the e-mails was widely known, but because it was a cia operation, intelligence official say that those emails should have been considered classified. part of an ongoing debate about just how sensitive the information in those emails was. [ cheers ] >> reporter: for republicans,

clinton's e-mail problems went from attack line to punch line thursday. >> the problem was the debate invitation was e-mailed to hillary. [ laughter ] >> mr. huckabee -- >> reporter: at the iowa state fair, mike huckabee joke good her address -- >> hrc@you'reintrouble.com. >> reporter: clinton's democratic opponents like former maryland governor o'malley have tried to tread lightly. >> all of the stuff about the e-mail server and top-secret emails and all of this -- these are not the ideas that excite the electorate. >> reporter: senator feinstein came to clinton's defense say, "as someone who regularly reviews classified material, i can say that those droumts always clearly marked -- documents are always clearly marked as containing classified information. the emails identified in clinton's situation did not contain these markings." the fbi picked up clinton's server wednesday. not from her chappaqua, new

york, home but from a data center in new jersey. a lawyer for the i.t. firm that manages the clintons' e-mail system told us that "the clin n clintons decided to upgrade their system sometime after clinton left the state department in 2013," and that "the old server is blank and likely does not contain usable information." dan ackerman is senior editor at cnet. he says to truly wipe a server clean, the material needs to be intentionally overwritten multiple times. >> if you write something on a chalkboard and erase it, you can still kind of see the outline. that's like deleting a file. if you write over it again, it's harder to see. the more times you write over it and erase it and write over it, eventually you'll never decipher what the original data was. >> reporter: the fbi hasn't said what it plans to do with the server. the intelligence community's inspector general referred the matter to them in the first place because he was concerned about the security of material that might be on it. it's possible that the fbi is

more interested in safeguarding the server than in examining it. >> all right, nancy. thank you. this morning, a 19-year-old firefighter was pulled alive from the rubble of the devastating explosions in china. he was trapped for 32 hours. new video of wednesday's explosions shows the devastation. at least 56 people are dead. here's a look at the warehouse district this morning. you see that it's still smoldering there. we have more from beijing and our partners at sky news. >> reporter: good morning from beijing where a remarkable story is emerging here of a young firefighter pulled from the wreckage some 32 hours after this blast. he is 19 years old, and his first year with the fire service. now being treated in hospital for serious burns and smoke inhalation. but in a stable condition. he has realized he couldn't move and fighting to stay conscious until help could arrive. we heard, too, from one of the men among the first firefighters

arrive at the scene. he's described seeing that initial explosion, throwing himself facedown on the ground which saved his life, but feeling debris landing on top of him and being flung five to six meters across the ground by the force of the second explosion. he described, again, coming around, seeing what he described as fire rain falling from the sky, and managing to crawl to safety behind one of those heavy industrial shipping containers. extraordinariville stories here. a number of -- extraordinary stories here. a number of firefighters remain unaccounted for. the work goes on, now complicated by serious concern as to exactly which substances may have been involved here and which chemicals may now be present at that scene. >> reporting from beijing, thank you. isis is accused this morning of using mustard gas. a chemical weapon outlawed nearly a century ago. kurdish troops fighting isis in northern iraq say they were the

targets. american officials say the charges are plausible. clarissa ward is following the story from istanbul, turkey. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. well, a senior u.s. defense official told cbs news that reports that isis has used mustard gas against kurdish forces are, in fact, "credible." so far there's been no details or no information as to when these were used, how they were used, and where they were used. what we believe we know is that kurdish forces claimed earlier this week they came under a chemical attack. they did not specify what chemical was used in the attack. but video appeared to show men with respiratory problems. one man with burns. dozens of them injured. none were killed. and u.s. officials say that they do believe that isis has possession of mustard gas, possibly from old saddam hussein-era stockpiles, but more likely from syria. in 2013, the assad regime

admitted to having stockpiles of mustard and claimed at that time that they had been destroyed, all of them, as part of the deal brokered by russia and the u.s. we know in the past, the assad regime has used chlorine gas in attacks. and kurdish fighters claim that isis has also used chlorine. technically, chlorine is not a banned substance, unlike mustard gas. mustard gas is a primitive, very crude weapon. it was popular in the first world war. really you need to use it in large quantities to effect any serious damage. investigating reports. today now, kurdish forces are claiming they came under yet another attack last night. so far we have not been able to confirm that. christine? >> all right. clarissa ward in istanbul, thank you for that report. japan's prime minister this morning stopped short of apologizing for his country's actions in world war ii. shinzo abe expressed profound grief for everyone who died. his closely watched statement

marks the 70th anniversary of the end of the war. abe said future generations should not continue apologizing. a muddy mess this morning in parts of utah. a mudslide forced 11 families from their homes overnight south of salt lake city. heavy rains in woodland hills caused up to four feet of mud to pour into the streets and homes. nobody was hurt. emergency responders used sandbags to protect the houses. this morning, forecasters warn that storms of godzilla proportions could hit the west coast. a nasa climatologist describes the system as a godzilla el nino. could it bring once-in-a-generation storms to the west this winter. john blackstone shows how this could impact, especially the four-year drought. >> reporter: a strong el nino could turn drought-stricken california from this to this. in san francisco, the winter of

1997-'98 was the wettest in years. a full year's worth of rain fell in los angeles in one month. mountain towns were buried under twice the average snowfall. what's coming this winter could be even stronger. >> el nino comes in awe sizes, small, medium -- in all sizes, small, medium, and large. rarely do we get a godzilla el nino. >> reporter: god zale is apparently the only -- godzilla is apparently the only tword describe what climatologists describe as unusually warm water spreading across the pacific near the equator. the warm water mass, the signature of el nino, seems to be growing even broader than it did in 1997. >> this one looked promising from the start. at birth, it was a big baby. >> reporter: in the united states, a strong el nino can bring more precipitation across the south and up the east coast. northern states are likely to have a winter that is dryer and warmer than usual. >> this will be a very strong el nino. >> reporter: in california,

meteorologist john montaver did he has been watching with growing excitement. >> we always get interested in forecasting storms. there's going to be lots as this pattern bears out. the people of

connecticut enacted a law that said the death penalty is unconstitutional -- the death penalty shall be abolished going forward. but anyone who was still on death row, there were 11 people including the two killers who are looked at as monsters in the pettitte case, they were still on death row. and the legislature probably because of those two people said

the people on death row, they're still getting executed. santiago goes forward. now the supreme court in a 92-page opinion, 75 pages by the majority, goes through the history of the death penalty and says no more. the death penalty is now unconstitutional under the connecticut constitution. >> what about the families of these victims like dr. pettitte? i would imagine he had such a sense of closure. now everything's reopened. can he appeal the decision? >> no. what you have is this -- because they decided that the death penalty is unconstitutional, as cruel and unusual punishment, this is their reasoning, they say it no longer comports with contemporary standards of human decency and serves now legitimate purpose. with those two prongs and because it's the connecticut

state constitution, it's final. it's over. the only way to overturn this would be by a state constitutional amendment that is not going to happen. >> it will be interesting to see how this influences other high courts. >> it will. >> thank you very much. a man lost his cell phone riding a roller coaster in ohio. he was killed trying to get it back. the 45-year-old james young was hit and killed at the cedar point amusement park. young had jumped a fence to look for his cell phone after it fell into a restricted area. this morning, the epa reports colorado's animus river seems to be restoring itself after a sludge spill. toxicity levels are going down. it stems from a spill at the mine last week. colorado is letting treatment plants use river water again, but boats are still banned. the epa says nearly three million gallons of sludge poured into the river. the nfl suspended tom brady for four games, but that did not keep him off the field last

night. >> there he is, tom brady. comes out for the first offen offensive series for the patriots. who a long off season for number 12. all know the story after all he's been through. >> this is home for him -- >> the super bowl mvp started new england's first preseason game. the patriot fans were glad to see him. brady played less than one quarter of last night's loss to green bay. he was in court this week in new york city challenging the deflategate suspension that begins with the regular season. britain's royal family says paparazzi have crossed a line. ahead, the blunt warning this morning for photographers trying to snap a picture of

welcome back. coming up, kensington palace accuses paparazzi of unacceptable tactics to take pictures of young prince george. officials say photographers are crossing the line, and they don't like it. we'll show you the tactics that prompted the royals' warning. "sesame street" builds a toll road of sorts. will families pay to see episodes of the iconic series? what does it mean for parents who can't afford premium cable, all ahead. time for the headlines. "buzzfeed" news says supporters of al gore have begun talking with the former vice president about running for president in 2016. they're said to be figuring out if there's a partial financially and politically. he won't the popular vote in the 2000 election. a source close to gore tells cbs he's not actively exploring a presidential run. the "wall street journal" reports on donald trump making millions from a multilevel marketing firm. mr. trump endorsed acn and its video phone and featured the

company twice on his former reality tv show, "the celebrity apprentice." acn was investigated by regulators in three country. trump's presidential campaign says he received $450,000 apiece for three recent speeches for acn in 2014 and then again early this year.

"the new york times" reports on the first legal challenges to new u.s. rules to curb carbon emissions. 15 states filed a stay in federal court in washington yesterday. they claim the environmental protection agency does not have the authority to carry out the clean power plan. the epa wants to lower emissions by 32% below 2005 levels by

the last straw for the royal family. in one of the most robust and strongly worded letters ever issued by kensington palace, the royal family says prince george has become the number-one target of paparazzi photographers. he has only been seen in authorized public photographs a few times since he was born. and now the palace is fed up. "a line has been crossed," the letter reads. "and any further escalation in tactics would represent a very real security risk." the palace says photographers have gone so far as to monitor the movement of prince george and his nanny, use other children to lure prince george into view, hide themselves in sand dunes on beaches to take photographs. the young couple have always expressed their desire to give their children as normal a childhood as possible without having to keep them behind the palace walls. the palace has provided a number of public opportunities for the media to take images of the

young family. prince william has been fiercely protective of his children, given his own mother, princess diana's experience, with the meadia. she was hounded by the paparazzi up until the last moments of her life. the royal family has appealed to the media and public not to use these image of the young royals. they say they know that every parent would understand their deep unease over stranger following them and taking photographs of their children without permission. vinita? >> they probably absolutely would. thank you. >> i'm glad they're speaking up. the paparazzi can be so out of control. they want their little boy to have a normal life. >> they have been so paparazzi friendly in recent years. >> yeah. >> trying to make an effort. you would think they would get the respect back. >> let's hope. hbo is known for adult dramas like "game of thrones" and "sex in the city." now the premium cable giant is welcoming something new to its family. ♪ sunny days

chasing the clouds away ♪ >> new episodes of "sesame street" will begin making their debut on hbo this fall after 45 years of free viewing on tbs. the five-year hbo deal announced thursday will also nearly double the number of new episodes and also create a muppets spinoff. "new york times" deputy business editor peter lapman is here to talk about it. children's program, i don't exactly think of thob turn to for children's programming. what is in it for hbo? >> it is a strange union. hbo gets a popular and prestigious children's television program. what's going on in the streaming business, you have hbo, netflix, amazon, hu hhulu, fiercely compg for viewers. there's a race for children's programming. the idea is parents are more willing to pay per a subscription if their kids say,

hey, i want to watch this on hbo, or i want to watch that on netflix. >> i'm with kristine. i'm trying to wrap my brain around it's not tv, it's hbo. what did "sesame street" turn to hbo for the deal? >> right. "sesame street" is i n-- is a nt profit and has struggled financially. pbs, where it's been for the past 45 years, has been giving it money. nowhere enough to flourish financially. the deal with hbo gives it a lot better financial situation. and it still is on pbs. that's the important thing to remember. >> the new episodes will air nine months later. >> right. there was a backlash yesterday. it does create the perception of a kast system where the rich kids get to watch the first-run episodes for nine month, then the episodes go to pbs. you'll always be able to watch on pbs. it's just all the old shows. >> even in our house, we do so many more things on demand. makes sense to hear that shows like "sesame street" are losing

licensing fees that they relied on for dvds, people watching the show. do you see this as a broader trend, that we'll have more shows that do this? >> yeah. the world is on demand. no one flips on the television anymore. the kids don't just turn on to watch "sesame street." they pick stuff on the air. they'll go to netflix, hulu, hbo. now they have this great option to watch "sesame street." now hbo will hopefully get more subscribers as a result of the deal. the concern is that kids don't hit "game of throne" or "true blood" when they're picking what to watch. >> to the kast system comment. "sesame street" is so ever green. does it matter if you get to see it nine months later? does that matter? >> that's right. preschool children don't care. they're not waiting for the next episode. they watch the same ones over and over. >> no spoilers. >> someone in the newsroom did joke that what comes after "h" dad? waiting for the next episode. >> thank you, peter. thank you very much.

samsung this morning is raising the stakes whether it comes to buying things -- whether it comes to buying things with your smartphone. samsung pay is designed to do what apple pay and google wallet can't -- allow you to make payments nearly everywhere. samsung sales plunged 20% last year just before apple released the iiphone 6. now the inventor who could give it a run for its money. >> samsung's payment service will officially launch in september, and it hopes the unique technology will give it a leg up over heavyweights such as

apple and google. in the increasingly competitive world of mobile payments. >> wow! >> reporter: people are reaching for their smartphones instead of wallets more and more. mobile payments are expected to top $800 billion by 2019 leaving tech giants racing to deliver. mit graduate will grayland was ahead of the curve. how long have you been trying to develop a mobile payment system? >> i started nearly 14 years ago when i naively wandered into the mobile payment space thinking how hard could it be. turns out it was really hard. >> reporter: grayland eventually developed the technology. and samsung bought his company, loop pay, earlier this year for a reported $250 million. >> our vision is for you to be able to digitize all of your credentials inside of a secure container which is your mobile wallet, and your phone should be safer than your leather wallet.

>> reporter: samsung pay will use token-based systems will only be accessible by the owner's fingerprints or pin. >> it's very simple. the phone doesn't even have to be on for me to swipe up the screen and pull the card up. if i want to pay, use my fingerprint, reach over, and there it is. that quick, and that simple. >> reporter: business insider senior research analyst john heggestuen says smudge will have an advantage over competitors like google wallet and apple pay. it's compatible with magnetic stripe card readers, allowing it to be used nearly everywhere a plastic credit card can be swiped. how much of a game changer is this? >> it's huge. if you think about the companies we use to pay, visa credit cards, it's everywhere you want to be, right? if you start to use samsung pay, you'll be able to use it everywhere. >> reporter: we tried it at a store nearby. >> that's interesting.

i was like, what -- i need a swipe. it went through. i was like amazed. never seen that before. >> reporter: there could be privacy issues. the phones collect and pass along data on what is purchased and where if the owner doesn't opt out. >> if you say no, they won't collect your data. even so, consumers may not have a full grasp of what can be done with their data because these companies will literally know everything about where you go, what you buy. >> reporter: experts say samsung may only have a competitive edge temporarily as magnetic stripe credit cards are phased out for the newer electronic chip cards. the playing field will most likely even out. >> really intimidates me. >> me, too. me, too. >> i am. >> it's nice that they have the fingerprint. that gives you some level of security -- >> they do not contain your actual credit card numbers. they carry a token number which is used only once. like the enigma machine in world war ii. >> a bad thing -- >> everything is going to be in

these phones eventually. every part of your life. >> i've got to get with the program. thank you, don. movie theaters expecting big crowds for "straight out of compton." they're also afraid of problems. ahead, security concerns sparking a backlash from hip-hop fans. and coming up next, a scary school bus yeah, i want him to have a hi. your daddy's getting really fun car.

in our "morning rounds," the

diet debate -- low carb or low fat? a system put them head to head to try to settle the argument once and for all. dr. holly phillips has a breakdown. good morning. >> good morning. >> a lot of people listening with both ears. it is the $64 million question. the answer is -- >> absolutely. well, it was a neck-in-neck race to the finish line, but ultimately the low-fat diet was better than the low-carb diet for losing body fat. >> did that surprise you? >> you know, it doesn't really surprise me. one of the things people focus on is the benefits of low-carb i do nets that they cut -- diets in that they cut insulin levels which in theory helps your body to lose stored fat. now the researchers found even though this is true, cutting down how much fat you eat makes a much bigger difference in losing body fat overall. >> how do they test this? was it a real-world scenario that could apply? >> right. this was a unique study in that it was incredibly precise. they asked 19 people who were overweight to stay in a lab for

two different two-week periods during which everything was monitored. during the first stay, they cut their carbs by 8 hundred calories a day. -- 800 calories a day. during the second stay, they cut fat by 800 calories a day. both times they customered an hour a day -- they exercised an hour a day on a treadmill. turned out when they cut carbs, they lost body fat at a rate of 53 grams a day. whether they cut fat, they lost it even faster, a rate of 89 grams a day. so cutting the -- cutting down the amount of fat you eat helped them to burn fat. >> a very controlled environment obviously. for rest of us -- >> in the real world -- >> yeah. at 9:00 at night, i'd love a bag of peanut m & ms. what's the best alternatives for us normal folks? >> right. that's really the point. it's hard to extrapolate this to real life because in a lab people could only eat what they were given. real life, there are potato chip temptations all day.

also, the researchers couldn't figure out which diet was easier to stick to. whether it was low carb or low fat. that's going to make the biggest difference. you know, ultimately, cutting calories in any way is the best diet. so it's about figuring out what you can stick with to get it done. >> i know. we all know the answer -- eat less and get your butt on the treadmill. it's easier said than -- >> easy. >> easier said than done. i would like to know the latest research. thank you very much. >> you're turn. my turn? dr. holly phillips, thank you. >> are you kristine, right? >> it does say that. i'm fired. okay. a popular panda is puzzling her keepers about whether she is pregnant. we will explore this mystery coming up next.

zoo's most beloved animals spends most of her time these days -- sleeping, curled occupy her right side. sometimes on her left or sprawled out on her stomach. it's also why zookeepers think mei xiang just might be pregnant. brandi smith is in charge of animal care at the zoo. >> other pandas we can always call them out with a fruit sickle or some honey. when mei xiang's in this mode, there's nothing we can do to get her to move. >> reporter: it's just don't bother me? >> exactly. >> reporter: all the time? >> yes. she's very much a pregnant female. >> reporter: that's the thing -- despite how she's acting, it's possible she's not pregnant because giant pandas often experience what's known as a false pregnancy. mei xiang of artificially inseminated twice in april. one of the potential fathers is in china, the other is tian tian, the panda that was chowing down in the background during our interview. mei spends almost all of her

time inside in her den where she's building a nest with bamboo. another sign she could be getting ready to pop. she's had ultrasounds, but so far they're inconclusive. when will you actually know she's pregnant? >> mei xiang likes to keep us in suspense. as we get near the end of her pregnancy, she stops participating in the ultrasounds. she makes sure we can't see anything. and then we'll know if she's pregnant when she gives birth. >> reporter: that's right. we probably won't know she's pregnant until the moment this happens. that's mei giving birth two years ago to bau bau. cause for celebration because it followed five false pregnancies. for panda fans, the baby has been a star, millions watching her to grow up on the panda cam, learning to crawl. getting checkups and playing outside with the occasional adorable tumble. pandas are already the most

popular animals at the zoo. >> we are panda crazy. >> reporter: all of you? >> yes, family affair. >> reporter: who here likes pandas? >> what's your friend's name? >> pandy. >> reporter: as the big day approaches, crowds are expected to get even larger. everyone including brandi smith is hoping for good news for mei xiang and this endangered species. >> i always believe 100% in my heart that mei xiang is pregnant and that we will have a healthy baby panda. >> reporter: usually it's hard to get a panda to stay where you want it to stay. tian tian has been really good. i think it's because they gave him so much bamboo, he didn't want to go anywhere else. by the way, if mei xiang is pregnant, the earliest she could give birth is later this month. it's more likely that it will be in early september. vinita? >> very cool, chip. thank you very much. i hope it's not another false alarm. >> me, too. exciting. two of hollywood's heavy hitters are in our toyota green room.

it is hard to believe that back-to-school season is already here. this means it's time to shop for

new school supplies. many schools want students to bring more than just pencils and a back pack. printer paper and cleaning supplies are also making the list. why parents have to help with the cost. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, you would think items like tissues and trash bags would be provided in the classroom. with shrinking education budgets and growing requirement, schools are increasingly looking to families to fill in the gaps. what are you feeling now as you get ready to go into the back-to-school mode? >> it is a lot. it can be a bit much. >> reporter: shopping for school supplies has become an annual tradition for chicora wright. her son nicholas starts fourth grade in a few weeks. >> they request hand sanitizer and lysol wipes -- >> reporter: is it frustrating as a parent when you look at the list? >> yes. i mean, i'm not frustrated over pencils. of course he needs a pencil,

folders, he needs books. crayons. things that make sense. >> reporter: this year, first graders at an elementary school in moody, alabama, are required to bring items including kleenex, handsoap, clear okay wipes, baby wipes, paper towels, ziplock bags, trash bags, and hand sanitizer. that's in addition to four boxes of crayons and one bottle of board cleaner. according to the national retail federation, spending on back-to-school supplies has grown on average 42% since 2005. parents pay an average of about $580 per year for a child in elementary school. >> what we saw in the last decade or especially last five or six years are very large cuts to education budgets. schools have been cutting back on everything they can. someone's got to take care of that. >> reporter: it's not just parents. one study shows elementary and high school teachers spend an annual average of about $500 out

of pocket on supplies. in a statement, the american federation of teachers says, "teachers have taken it upon themselves to do everything in their power to help their kids, including digging deep into their pockets for supplies. it's time that teachers get the tools they need." >> about 10,000 members now. >> reporter: michael wallrin is senior pastor at first christian than baptist church in harlem. his ministry has been running a back pack drive for four years. last year they gave out more than 500 bookbags filled with back-to-school materials. this year he says it may be closer to 1,000. >> i think when you think of the reality that there are so many children in need in this community that it does take a village. also takes a community to make provision for our children, as well. >> groups like gofundme and donorschoose are a few of the organizations rallying private donors to help with those classroom needs. >> yeah.

very serious. >> become a norm with my kids. since they were little, we've had to bring the extra kleenex and wipes. they also do -- if you can afford, it bring in extra supplies. >> and volunteer. >> thank you very much. tomorrow on "cbs this morning," we'll look at one of the hardest climbs on the planet. best-selling author john krakow, american climber, takes us on the journey tomorrow. next, the most unforgettable moments of the week.

what do a nasca comedian... and a professional golfer have in common? we talked to our doctors about treatment with xarelto®. xarelto® is proven to treat and help reduce the risk of dvt and pe blood clots. xarelto® has also been proven to reduce the risk of stroke in people with afib, not caused by a heart valve problem. for people with afib currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. i tried warfarin before, but the blood testing routine

and dietary restrictions had me off my game. not this time. not with xarelto®. i'll have another arnold palmer. make mine a kevin nealon. really, brian? hey, safety first. like all blood thinners, don't stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor, as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke. while taking, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. xarelto® can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. get help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto®, watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto®, tell your doctor about any kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. xarelto® has been prescribed more than 11 million times in the u.s. and that number's growing. like your guys' scores. with xarelto® there is no regular blood monitoring, and no known dietary restrictions. treatment with xarelto® was the right move for us.

ask your doctor about xarelto®. that does it for us. vinita will be here tomorrow with "cbs this morning saturday." in new york, you can see kristine weeknights on cbs 2. let's take a moment. three women of color, first time on cbs. i like it. for complete coverage of the historic day in cuba, there's a meeting. watch our 24-hour digital news network, cbs news.
