roadside fire. an injured driver had to be airlifted to safety. fast response from fire crews kept the flames from spreading. but now, when fires escape the initial attack, they can become unstoppable. >> the fire behavior up in the sahara is extreme, nuts. we're seeing spreads of 1,000 acres an hour. it's something we've never seen before. >> reporter: to illustrate the impact of the drought a los angeles company that specializes in video from drones recorded these scenes in central california. from above, the golden state is largely brown. for "cbs this morning, saturday," john blackstone, san francisco. with more on the heat meteorologist ed curran joins us from our chicago station wbbm. good morning, ed. >> good morning, don. and there is terrible heat out west as you just heard, excessive heat warning here in the los angeles area and up to the north of los angeles. south of there we have heat

yesterday. the u.s. embassy in havana, cuba, is open for business again after more than half a century. secretary of state john kerry left cuba last night for washington after he attended the official raising of the american flag in havana on friday. kerry went to havana to personally oversee the reopening of the long shuttered american embassy. margaret brennan was there. >> ladies and gentlemen, our great seal. >> reporter: history was made before dawn friday when the united states seal was hung at the embassy for the first time in 54 years. once daylight broke three cold war era marines who shuttered the embassy in 1961 helped the nek generation unfurl the flag. ♪ james tracey, then a master gunnery sergeant was one of those marines who helped take down the flag and promised one day to return. >> we're back. we're here to stay this time, i think.

and i'm coming back with a grandkids. going to show them where granddaddy worked one time. >> reporter: hundreds of cubans gathered to watch. this woman said she had long dreamed of the day when cuba and the u.s. would get along. but despite the optimism of the day there is still a lot of work needed to repair the decades long rifts. cuba wants the u.s. to repeal its trade embargo which is choking its already weak economy. congress has been reluctant to do that. and president obama has called on the castro government to stop the crack down on political dissidents who want real democracy. i asked secretary kerr we about that. how can you promise them that any of the changes here will do any of those bigger things? >> i can't promise them. what i can say to them is that we are now engaged in diplomacy and able to help to shed light on what is happening in cuba, help to understand ourselves

better what is happening in cuba. we're here. >> reporter: and secretary kerry did meet behind closed doors with some of those activists. and that at least was a thorn in the side of the cuban government on what was otherwise a day of celebration. for "cbs this morning, saturday, i'm margaret brennan, in havana. we are learning more about what was in those four hillary clinton e-mails that intelligence officials now say should have been marked as classified. in clear lake, iowa on friday, clinton made a forceful defense of her handling of the 2012 benghazi, libya, attacks and her use of private e-mail server while in the united states. they say it is about benghazi but she said, quote, it's not. it's about politics. >> it won't get down in the mud with them. i won't play politics with national security or dishonor the memory of those who we lost. i won't pretend that this is anything other than what it is, the same old partisan games

we've seen so many times before. >> nancy cordes now with more on the clinton e-mails. >> reporter: as an interagency debate rages about just how sensitive clinton's e-mails were, cbs news has learned that one of the e-mails in question is already in the public domain, in unredacted form. the inspector general for the intelligence community revealed last month that a review of a i'm willed sample of 40 clinton e-mails yielded four that contained classified information. but by then, the state department had already released one of them in full, as part of a court mandated release of 296 clinton e-mails, all pertaining to libya and the 2012 benghazi attacks. some of those e-mails were partially redacted but this one was not. indicates that the state department did not consider the material it contains to be particularly sensitive. in fact, sources tell cbs news that none of the four e-mails mentioned the names or locations

of intelligence assets. what did they mention? according to the associated press, one involved a discussion about a news article detailing a u.s. drone operation. it is technically considered a secret program, but is actually well-known and often reported on. that e-mail intelligence officials say, should have been marked top secret, and like the other three, should never have been transmitted via an unclassified personal system like the one clinton possessed. for "cbs this morning, saturday," nancy cordes, washington. one of the biggest questions at this point in the campaign is how the e-mails scandal might shift the democratic field so we're going to get an assessment of that from cbs news political director and host of "face the nation," john dickerson in our washington bureau. good morning, john. >> good morning. >> the e-mails are dominating the conversation. is democratic leadership concerned about them? >> well, they're concerned to the extent that this is going to dog hillary clinton for the next

several months and so they're watching the ways in which she tries to handle the question. she still has though a pretty strong organization, and she's -- there's often this kind of indigestion that hits in the summer before the fall. so there is definitely worry but there's not yet panic. >> so let's talk about bernie sanders because in many polls he's surging. i would argue some of the polls he's surging is it's expected, we would have expected him to do well in some of the places he's doing well. do you think he's a real threat to her? >> i think we wouldn't necessarily have expected bernie sanders to do be beating hillary clinton, especially in new hampshire, say, in the one franklin pierce poll because this is a state that hillary clinton won, beat barack obama there. she has all of the money, all of the organization, and the endorsement of lots and lots of prominent democrats. so having said that, it's still not clear what the path is for bernie sanders, for example,

through a state like south carolina where hillary clinton has just a much more dominant operation down there. so he is creating this sense of weakness which worries some democrats, but still most strategists don't see a pathway for him to the nomination. >> we're early in the game here, jhn, but with her unfavorabilities so high right now, is there any scenario where you can envision an avowed socialist running against a conservative and can you imagine if congress and dc's polarized now, what that would mean? >> it would be difficult to imagine a situation in which a democrat socialist would get the nomination in the democrat party and win in the general election. of course if that happened and he did get the nomination, politics would have shifted so we would have to reassess at the time. but that's still why a lot of strategists in the democratic party still don't think he has a pathway. bernie sanders has a very vocal, passionate following.

he's tapped into something that is important and real on the left. and should not be sort of sniffed at by any elites in washington. but it still is not clear how he puts together an operation, especially since the clinton team, for all of the complexities of life for them right now and the trouble with this e-mail story, there is a lot that they've done to create a political operation that can sustain her candidacy. >> there's been talk about joe biden. do you think that that's a realistic option? >> it is real in the sense that joe biden is thinking about running. he is -- his advisers are out testing the waters, seeing what a campaign might have to look like. there are significant hurdles though for him to making a successful campaign. there's not really an ideological difference with hillary clinton with him. he's not of a new generation of he is of course of a different gender but a lot of democrats think that hillary clinton would benefit from being a woman in the general election. so there is definitely thought going on, whether he runs or not

is still up to him. >> john, i imagine these are going to be all the topics you're going to tackle on "face the nation" tomorrow. >> that's right. we'll kick all this around and we'll talk to john kasich on the republican side. lindsey graham, another republican potential -- another republican candidate out there, is going to be on the show. and martin o'malley, one of the democrat, we'll be talking to him as well. >> john dickerson in washington this morning. thank you so much. presidential candidates including hillary clinton will be at the iowa state fair today. republican jeb bush was at the fair friday cooking and eating grilled pork chops, another favorite. the front-runner donald trump will speak at the fair today as well as rick santorum. on a democratic side, bernie sanders and lincoln chafee will be there. we will have more on the bizarre history of the stumps and slips made at the iowa state fair later in the broadcast. the federal aviation administration the is considering new drone registration rules. the faa wants to require flying drones to be registered when they are sold.

transportation secretary anthony foxx told cbs news the agency is trying to determine if it has the authority or will need congressional action. foxx says requiring people to renlg stir their drones would provide at least some ability to track it back if they find violations of faa rules such as flying close to an airport. there are new pictures this morning showing police in lub buck, texas, beating a suspect. police originally released the video from the officer's dash calm but new video emerged showing the response of responding officers. an officer seen running up to the suspect and then kicking him. the same officer then punches him before others join in. the suspect is accused of stealing a police vehicle last month and crashing it while an officer was hanging on. lubbock police says an investigation into the use of

correspondent dr. jon lapook and dr. holly phillips. support the pouring in from around the world for former president jimmy carter. 90-year-old nobel peace prize winner revealed wednesday he has cancer that has spread throughout his body. jon, what do we know about the former president's cancer? >> on august 3rd he had a procedure to help remove a mass that was in his liver. we didn't know what the results of that were going to be in terms of pathology. we found out unfortunately it was cancer. there are a lot of questions. we don't know where the cancer started. it could really come from any part of the body, the lungs, gastrointestinal tract. could start in the liver itself or the pancreas. the reason why we're suspicious about that a little bit is that he's a very strong family history, three siblings died from pancreatic cancer, so did his father. we really don't know where it started so we need to find out a lot more information. >> 90 years old. what are his options for treatment? >> well, as jon just mentioned, it's hard to talk about treatment when we really don't

know everything there is to know about the cancer, exactly how far it's spread and what type it is. but speaking in very general terms, if he has tumors in places that are easy to reach, surgery would be an option. and if the tumors are in harder to reach places like the brain, for instance, there's targeted radiation. and of course then there are drugs, ranging from traditional chemotherapy to some of the newer modalities called immune no therapy and molecular therapy. his doctors are going to be weighing his age and overall health status but they're going to look for a regimen that's going to make him live better, not just longer. >> he was very -- is very aware of this family history with this particular kind of cancer. in fact, in his recent book he wrote, i have had regular x-rays, cat scan, or blood analyses of hope of early detection if i develop the same symptoms. do you think that might help with the prognosis on this? >> well, it just depends what he ends up having. i think that in terms of prognosis and treatment, it's

going to be a very deeply personal decision. and this is really part of a national discussion, conversation, that we're starting to have more and more. how aggressive to be in situations like this. i certainly go through in my own practice. depending upon the person's own personal health, their preference, you may want to be very aggressive, you may want to do nothing at all or something anywhere in between. >> okay. a new study from the national institutes of health weighs in on a constant source of debate among dieters. should you cut fat or carbs to help lose weight? dr. holly, this is the watercooler topic of the day. what does the study say? >> it is. basically the study found that lowering your fat intake rather than lowering carbs proved to be more effective in terms of losing body fat. but they were very, very close. this is a small but very precise study. they asked 19 people to stay inside a research lab for two different two-week periods where

everything was monitored. during the first time they stayed there they cut their carbs by 800 calories a day. the second time they cut fat by 800 calories a day. what this ended up doing was that when they cut their carbs they lost fat at a rate of 53 grams a day. when they cut fat, they lost it faster, a rate of 89 grams a day. so ultimately decreasing the amount of fat they ate helps them to lose fat more than cutting the carbs. >> let me ask what everyone is wondering. dr. holly tell us go low fat? >> one of the things that makes this study a little bit difficult to really take into real life is that the patients were inside of a lab. they could only eat what the scientists gave them. that's not the way we operate in real life. you know, where you're tempted all the time to have carbs and fat. also, the study couldn't assess

which one was easiest to stick to. the best die set the one you can sustain. >> sint they didn't tell us the combination of the two which is better, what do you think the doctor s are saying here? >> it can be confusing so i reached out to kevin hall, the lead author. he said this, if a low carb diet is working for you, terrific, stick with it. don't think the reason why it's working is because of some fancy metabolic reasoning having to do with insulin levels and how much fat is being burned. the reason why it probably works is that you're lowering your calorie intake and over the long term, what's important is how many calories you're eating, whether it's low fat or low carb diet -- >> or both. >> or both. it's what works for you. of course, i have to throw in you got to do exercise, too. >> one in five americans uses technology like smartphone apps and wearable sensors to track health data. new scientific statement from the american heart association examines how successful these apps are in helping americans improve their health. dr. holly, i tend to believe in the old nike philosophy of just

do it. get out, workout. these things feel like a fad but maybe not. >> right, right. that's really why the researchers were interested in this. there's only a little bit of data we have so far about their effectiveness. and they were focused on whether or not it could cut down on heart disease risk factors. so what they did find was that the apps were effective in weight loss but only in the short term so far. we're not sure if, you know, a year or two in they're still as effective. they seem to be able to increase physical activity and may even be beneficial for smoking cessation, particularly when they're combined with a more traditional quitting smoking program. there wasn't enough information to say if they cut down on diabetes or high cholesterol or lowered blood pressure yet. >> all right. finally this morning, if you were having an operation soon a new analysis makes a simple recommendation. turn up the tunes. british scientists say listening to music before, during, and after surgery reduces people's pain, anxiety, and need for

painkillers. >> music has been used as therapy from as far back as florence nightingale and forward. it's fascinating. we don't know exactly the mechanism that goes into your brain it somehow effects endorphins but all i know is personally when you hear a certain type of music it goes right to the middle of my brain. for me it's james taylor. makes me feel better. other music, not so much. >> i'm not sure ac/dc "highway to hell" is what i want to hear. >> it depends. >> dr. jon loo pook, and dr. holly phillips. up next, has political correctness gone too far on collegecampuses? the real issue, we'll tell you more. you're watching "cbs this morning, saturday."

anything? words, books, even ideas, simply because it might upset them? the rise of this new politically correct trend is the cover story in the new issue of "the atlantic" magazine, the protective atmosphere on many campuses have become so charged comedian jerry seinfeld won't perform for some students. >> i don't play colleges but i hear a lot of people tell me don't go near colleges. they're so pc. they just want to use these words. that's racist. that's sexist. that's prejudice. they don't even know what you're talking about. >> jonathan haidt is a professor of business ethics in new york university and coauthor of "the atlantic" article. interesting to hear jerry say that because a lot of comedians don't want to perform on college campuses. when did this start, do you think? >> the trend has really changed just in the last two or three years. that's what a lot of people don't seem to understand. college students have always been involved in political causes. they've always fought for justice. but the new idea is that people are so fragile that if someone

says something they could actually cause trauma in a member of these protected groups. that's new. >> there are a number of comedians though who are still doing the campus routine, and even land hbo specials and that sort of thing. but do you think this political correctness, is it on the rise on campuses? >> yes. it's not this new aspect is not everywhere. it tends to occur only on campuses that have very low political diversity. in other words, if everybody is on the left, then the norm evolve even further to the left towards further sensitivity. this new stuff is mostly on the coast. it's not everywhere yet. >> in the article you talk about a term microaggression. when did you first discover this term and what does it mean? >> so i never heard it until just two years ago. it actually comes from a psychological article in 2007-2008. it refers to these little slights that maybe were unintentional. you hand the check to someone at the table, you're asian, you're

good at math. you mean it as a joke but it's taken as offensive. i understand that. but then it morphs into anything that someone says that's offensive to the left, like, for example, if you criticize affirmative action, that's a microaggression, or say america is a americatocracy. it's hard to tell joke it is there's no aggression in it. so, yeah, it kind of kills comedy. >> what i found interesting is that now you're meant to prep students. the way they're saying moving forward. how do you prepare someone, you might get offended? >> students at columbia requested that if you're going to assign greek mythology there's a lot of rape in greek mythology. what if a woman that has been raped reads a myth that had rape in it. if you're going to assign something you have to say trigger warning, contains sexual violence. >> that's another phrase you use, trigger warning. that's just saying flagging this as a possible offensive thing. >> that's right. once you start that if

professors are expected to mention anything that could trigger anyone, there's no end to it. and then students come to expect it and what happens when they go out into the real world and nobody is there to warn them? >> the timing of the article against the political land scape. what do you think is the broader impact? we live in this world where everyone in a way is treated fragilely like there's bubble wrap around them. what happens when people are suppressing things, not to say they're right things, but suppressing some free thought? >> so the very idea that colleges are trying to bubble wrap people have exactly the wrong thing to do. american childhood has gotten safer and safer. parents are more protective. adults stop in to ban bullying. so students come to college expecting that. if we're putting more bubble wrap on when they get out in the real world their skin is so thin they can't cope. >> i think social media has a huge role in all this. everybody has a crusade. >> it amplifies it. >> jonathan haidt, thank you

lead. and for the first two days of the event he went toe to toe with rory mcilroy and actually played four strokes better than rory, the world number one. clearly jordan's not intimidated about being the guy, the man in the spotlight. and the leader, jason day, is going for his first major. he's at 9 under right now. and he has the look of a young tiger woods, intense, bordering on angry but also very centered and playing the best golf in the field. this is jason day's tournament to lose right now. >> everybody has been expecting him to push it through. another person that plays well all season in the first couple of rounds but doesn't seem to be able to finish the task is dustin johnson. what are his chances in. >> dustin johnson has more talent, more natural talent than anybody in golf. but something happens to him on weekends when the pressure is on. he becomes a shakespearean tragic figure where everybody dies in the last act. >> so mean. >> he crumbles when the pressure

is on. >> true. >> he crumbles when the pressure is on. the fact that he's in the knicks doesn't mean he won't win but i believe dustin johnson has the insides to win a major when i see it happen. and i don't think he has the mental strength right now in his career to get it done. >> you said natural talent. what is it about him that makes him different as a player when you watch him? >> he hits the ball farther than anybody. he's the best driver. he's the best straightest driver i've ever seen in all of golf. but golf is also about getting comfortable in that harsh spotlight on sunday afternoon. and dustin doesn't seem comfortable in that spotlight. he gets -- he gets nervous like any hacker would but he's not a hacker. he's a world class player. >> he is. he has a lot of talent, except perhaps when he gets on the green in the final rounds there. on the other hand you have jordan speith who does seem to be able to rise to the high level occasions. he's won two majors. he had a chance at winning the open championship in great great

britain and just missed that by missing the playoffs there. what is it that's so special about his game though? that's what everybody is asking because he really is something different. >> jordan is a 22-year-old golfer, but he channels a 42-year-old golfer or a 52-year-old golfer. he's very mature beyond his years. there's a joke on tour among players that he has a receding hairline because his hairline thinks he's older than he actually is. and he -- unlike dustin johnson, he's the mirror opposite. he loves the spotlight and he reminds me a lot of like a young tiger woods. he can't wait to go out there and he plays better when it's time to really perform. >> i think "the new york times" said he has a naturally high sports iq in terms of the questions he asks about the course. >> he's very smart. on the golf course he's wearing a suit of armor. meaning he has no weaknesses. he doesn't have that one dustin johnson type advantage where you look at a monster drives but he has no weaknesses. and over four rounds that adds

up to fewer strokes than most other golfers. >> rory mcilroy, world's number one, is his ranking in jeopardy? >> it is. if speith wins this week then he will be number one. and if he just finishes second and rory finishes below sixth, we'll have a new number one. regardless of what the numbers say, right now speith is the number one golfer in the world. >> anything to say about tiger right now? >> tiger, it's like he's in the woods and his gps is broken. he doesn't know how to get out. and if i had the answer, i would be coaching him right now and making a lot of money. >> that's so true. thank you so much for your time. >> my pleasure. you can see the pga championship. that is the third round of the tournament later today right here on cbs.

climb like this. and i feel like when we listen to you talk about it it sort of changes our perception of who that person would be. is that a geel yoal you started with? >> i've been climbing, i'm 61. i've been climbing since i was 8. i've written about climb for many years. i'm always trying to explain why people do it and dispel misconceptions. >> what are the common misconceptions? >> people assume it's all about the adrenaline. adrenaline junkies. about the thrill. that's really not. it's not bungee jumping. it's not crossing your fingers and saying a prayer and jumping off a bridge. it's making these very precise calculations about what the risk is, how close to the edge you're willing to take it. you know, to be able to climb mount meru, this is a lifetime experience game that gives them the judgment and the skills to do this. it's dangerous but what they did isn't reckless. you know, they're making -- you can argue with the judgments they've made, they can defend eb them. and climbers are -- we often

make each other defender judgments. like, man, that was a stupid thing you did. you should have put in a bigger anchor. no, no, i knew what i was doing. there's this back and forth. we're always checking each other's knots and checking each other's judgment. we're not crazy. we might be stupid but we're not crazy. >> you're the codirector on this. you were not on the mountain itself. but one of the things that sets this film apart, i think, from other mountain climbing films which i happen to be addicted to. i love all of those kinds of nature films. this film delves into not only what the climbers grapple with emotionally, their own fears and anxieties, but the people they leave behind who are really afraid for them, for their loved ones, and the understanding they have to have for that addiction that they have to climb. >> bringing in human story and the relationships to sustain these climbers is an important part of what we soot out to do. it's part of why they do it. they have these very, very strong -- you see conner's wife

in the film, you see jimmy's sister grace. we talk to a girlfriend amy. and including them in the experience, that was an important part of the story. >> is it true though that you are somewhat afraid of heights? >> i mean, i'm not a climber. yes. >> it must have been a lot of conversations, because even when you see the footage by first thought was how did they capture this? you had two small cameras, right? >> yes. myself and my climbing partner, we were trading off cameras and essentially, you know, he would shoot when i was climbing and i would shoot when he was climbing. and there were a lot of challenges to that. >> that's one of the incredible things about this, when you see this stunning footage that you're not only having to worry about climbing one of the not the most difficult climbing challenges anywhere, but you're taking these amazing stunning pictures, image, video images the whole way up. john, we were talking about that

in the green room. what kind of accomplishment is that? >> it's incredible. i mean, you know, it's 20 below zero. you've got gloves on. your hands are so cold you can barely tie a knot. periodically you've got to take a glove off, not drop the glove or you're going to lose your hand, not drop the card or you're going to have nothing to show, and you've got to change these memory cards, you've got to -- thinking, so much more energy. a lot of times july my would be climbing off to the side while conrad is climbing. it's not -- it doubles the amount of energy burned around the effort and the psyche effort to -- it's just so hard. >> what for you two as directors of this film is the take away. what is it that you want to think about climbers and dangerous claims about this? >> well, i really wanted to share the aspects of climbing that i don't think a lot of people recognize. and that have been so important in my life and why i find climbing so valuable, which is

the friendships and the mentorships. and, you know, conrad has been a mentor for me for ten years. and he's had a tremendous impact on my life. and, you know, those relationships and that trust and that loyalty is so much a part of why we do it. you know, of course, there's being on the side of the mountain and the beauty and the grandeur. but at the core of it is really your friendships. >> thank you all so much for coming in. appreciate it very much. meru can be seen in select theaters across the country with a national

at least sometimes seen here on the dish some people just seem like they were born to cook. hans rockenwagner is one of them. born and raised in germany he was born and raised in a restaurant. after training in restaurants in the black forest and gaining experience in germany he moved on to switzerland and france before making husband way to the united states where he ended up in los angeles. >> there he quickly established himself with an inventive take on california cuisine. his first restaurant, rockenwagner, made him a star. today as head of the l.a.-based rockenwagner bakery group he is a certified superstar. sir hans rockenwagner, welcome to the dish. >> you're putting it on heavy. a lot of pressure here. >> are we right, were you born to cook? >> you know what, it's something that i grew up in. my parents had a restaurant in germany. so it was somewhat of a foregone

conclusion although i did want to be an interior designer, architect. but then when i started cooking, you know, there's nothing more gratifying than making something and handing something, you make that connection. and you get this immediate gratifying, satisfying experience. >> it's such a special treat for us because we so rarery have german food on the table. tell us what you brought. what are the dish snes. >> what we have here, we have the star of the feature, which would be a snizzle. a snizzle literally means a chop or a wedge. and snizzle refers to the cut let. this is a jager snizzle. it's a hunter snizzle. there are varieties. the supporting cast would be a roasted orozo with rested vegetables. roasted call flower with raisins and hazelnuts. and then one of the first things

i ever made there in the foreground. >> what is that? >> that's probably a staple of german food. it's served with roasted meats, with chicken, with goulosh, with a lot of foods. it's a very forgiving thing. it's the first thing in the kitchen that i put on the comp of my book. >> it looks familiar this, doesn't it? you didn't do a recipe book for, what, 17 years? why the period between? >> now know, chefs usually when they put their first book out that's their -- that's their -- this is me, you know. this is -- but very often it becomes a table -- coffee table book with lots of glossy pictures and more about the restaurant. this is much more about my heritage, about where i come from, things i started missing in my life. >> you mention your heritage. you were over seas for so long. came to the united states at the age of 22. what prompted that move full

time for you? >> a great offer for a job in chicago. so actually ended up in chicago. was there for one year. and then, you know, california just was in the back of my mind. >> sure. >> the land of opportunity. >> this feels very much like back to the basics cooking here with a lot of traditions from your country and all. one of the trends that i've noticed with chefs though is to put together sometimes discordoned flavors just to be different. do you think that's good or do you think there should be a balance of flavors in there? >> see, what i see in this country right now, there's so many young, exciting chefs that are now bound by tradition. and they're pushing the boundaries. that's a great thing. because that makes us all kind of, on our toes, you know. there's always the next great thing around the corner. i'm a little older. that's why i have gone back to my roots. and to be honest, to me right
