good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you. you can barely make it out behind me but it is beautiful out here but it is extremely dangerous when you talk about the cold temperatures here. in fact, the locals here are predicting the entire place could completely freeze over before the month is out. a bone chilling freeze has turned parts of the falls into ice. on the canadian side the area around the horse shoe falls has been frozen solid for days. from coast to coast, bitter cold is gripping the country tray. in arkansas the intense cold froze this fountain from top to bottom. and a powerful ice storm took down power lines and damaged more than 30 poles and in apex, north carolina, three hunters had to be rescued after icy water their boat had just frozen through broke again. >> it can get really cold really quick out there on days like

england. blizzard conditions possible at the coast and intensifying snow. the worst travel conditions on thursday through the northeast with snowfall rates one to two inches per hour. snowfall totals will be a couple inches by tomorrow evening, but over a foot here in eastern maine for the deep purples here. a widespread 3 to 6 inches but some higher amounts including the city of boston where we have not been above 20 degrees in a week. >> thank you very much. south korea is offering the first high level talks with north korea in more than two years. the overnight offer comes in response to a new year's speech by kim jong-un. he says he's considering selling a delegation to next week's winter olympics. he made threats to the u.s. saying quote, the entire united states is within range of our nuclear weapons. major garrett is at the white house with the challenge confronting president trump. >> reporter: president trump returned here from florida monday facing hot rhetoric from

north korea and the burst of anti government demonstrations in iran. there is no clear path to resolve the former or capitalize on the latter. president trump's arrival after dark monday at the white house came as north korean dictator marked the new year with more nuclear threats. kim claimed to have a nuclear button on his desk and warned that all of the u.s. mainland is within striking distance. >> we'll see. >> the president reacted cautiously at his new year's bash at mar-a-lago telling guests adversaries should take notice. >> we have some good enemies out there, but step by step they're being defeated. they're some bad people. bad people. but that's okay. someday maybe they'll love us. i don't know. >> if we blink, god help us all. >> on face the nation, lindsay graham warned 2018 could be a year of quote, extreme danger.

child died overnight. so far the violence has claimed at least 21 lives. more than 400 have been arrested. elizabeth palmer has reported from iran many times and she is monitoring the protests from london. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. well, this all started last thursday with one isolated protest in a northern city, and it was about food prices and economic hardship. but such is the pent up frustration in iran that overnight these protestsmorphed until now they've affected more than 50 cities. >> in teheran, crowds vandalized one of the main shopping avenues. and in city after city, people have come out to protest, jeer and throw stones at the security forces. police have chased demonstrators away with water cannons in some areas and there have been isolated reports of shooting, impossible to verify by both the

security forces and the demonstrators. the protesters especially the young and the working poor are angry about everything from corruption and unemployment to lack of freedom and religious rule. theyey've even been vandalizing pictures of the leader which is the ultimate agect of defiance. he said people had a right to protest as long as there was no violence. but other hard line voices are now calling for a crackdown. the authorities are desperate to get this unrest under control, but a brutal response like the one we saw in 2009 where security forces shocked people in the streets could add fuel to the fire and turn this into a blood bath. now i've been speaking to contacts of ours in iran this morning. they say that there the capital things are equiet, but police o

the streets both uniformed and undercover. normally the demonstrations have been getting going around 5:00 so it's too early to tell whether this is going to spread further or start to fizzle out. but of course the whole world is watching. alex. >> indeed it is. thanks. investigators in costa rica are trying to learn if strong winds caused a plane crash that killed ten americans. it happened near the town of punta islita. don has details of the crash. >> good morning. two investigators from the national transportation safety board are traveling to costa rica to help with the investigation. officials say they're focused on two things that could have caused the crash. mechanical problems and weather. >> there's a human loss here

that's unspeakable. >> she lost her brother and his family in sunday's deadly crash. she says she's still waiting on the details of the investigation. >> i'm living a nightmare. my girls are living a nightmare and i lost so much of my family. >> when the first responders arrived at the scene of the crash deep in the forest of costa rica, they found the wreckage of the single engine in flames. the private charter flight crashed just minutes after taking off from a small airfield on costa rica's west coast late sunday morning. the plane was headed for the capital city of san jose. aviation officials say before picking up passengers at the airport the cessna attempted to land just before 11:00 a.m. but winds of more than 28 miles an hour were too strong. the plane was forced to wait at a nearby airport before successfully atmpting the landing a second time.

30 minutes later the plane deported with ten americans on board and crashed. a steinberg family's long-term nanny. >> i don't understand. beautiful kids, respect me always. >> the weisss were also on board with their son and daughter. >> you never want it to happen to somebody that you know and they were a good, good family. >> the two families on board were part of a tour group led by amanda geissler. the pilot had more than 20 years experience of flying that model of aircraft. >> just awful to hear about. customs and border protection computers are running again after outages caused major delays last night. thousands had to stand in long lines to clear customs.

the glitch shut down passport processing for about two hours. customs and boarder protection says there kwuz no sign of malicious hacking. hundreds of californiaians lined up on new year's day to buy some, though pot is not available throughout the state. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. out of the more than 400 businesses in california licensed to sell adult use marijuana only about a quarter of them are selling it right now. as we are aware we are standing this morning is one of them and its owners tell me like many in california they've been gearing up for this historic moment for several years now. >> with the cuts of a green ribbon, the dispensary kicked

off legal sales of recreational marijuana monday. henry was the first in line. >> to be able to now just walk in, show your driver's license and make a purchase, it's been a long time coming. >> reporter: the milestone which allows anyone 21 years of age and older to buy and possess recreational pot comes nearly two decades after california became the first state to legalize medicinal marijuana mplts lines popped up with customers ranging from long time users to first time buyers. >> the only thing that really surprised me was the number of people my age here. i thought i was going to be the only grandfather. >> this is absolutely going to be a recreational habit for me. i can have some chips and i'll be good. >> but not everyone is a fan. about a dozen california fans have banned recreational sales altogether and law enforcement is concerned about a rise in drug driving.

>> as has been the state in other states we fully expect to see an increase in crashes due to marijuana usage. >> experts believe the new industry will generate billions of dollars for the state bringing an estimated $1 billion a year in tax revenue alone. >> i think it's really important that we have to end the stigma around marijuana. i'm an employed functioning adult and i also smoke weed and i don't think there's anything wrong with that. >> reporter: now that the doors are open here in california more than one in five americans live in states where marijuana can eely be purchased. however the united states still believes this to be a controlled substance. lottery players have two giant prizes to aim for in the new year. an estimated $343 million is up for grabs tonight and the first prize for tomorrow's powerball drawing has climbed to about

flammability and cox sistoxicit. >> they had the wrong ratio so it wouldn't work. >> why do you think they did that? >> there's a lot of inertia to maintain the continued use of methylene chloride that's been used for years. >> that's their message so if someone comes along and says here's a perfectly good alternative, their immediate response is it can't be true. >> so you're out to prove them wrong. >> exactly. that's what we're doing. >> so what about those claims from the manufacturer? the university researchers told us they're conducting further tests to prove that it is much less hazardous, their combination and they say that's the point of their research to come up with alternatives that don't carry the same risks like death. the industry told us it thinks new warning labels it's proposing can be effective in preventing further deaths but many experts say that the problem is consumers and workers don't pay attention to them or

good morning. it is tuesday, january 2nd, 2018. happy new year and welcome back to cbs this morning. ahead, the biggest threats facing president trump in the new year. cbs news contributor is in studio 57 with why we could be surprised. plus, hollywood's female leaders start a new campaign against sexual harassment. but first, here's today's eye opener at 8:00. >> millions of americans are waking up in a deep freeze. windchills in most of the country are plunging far below normal. >> it is absolutely beautiful out here, but make no mistarke, it is extremely dangerous. >> the cold is not confined to the northern tiers. highs in the 20s in dallas.

>> trump returned here facing more hot rhetoric from north korea and the burst of anti government demonstrations in iraq. >> such is the pent up frustration in iran, but theymorphed until they've affected more than 50 cities. >> people are traveling to costa rica to help with the investigation. they're focused on mechanical problems and weather. >> now that the doors are open here in california, more than one in five americans live in states where recreational marijuana can legally be purchased. >> very courageous father was willing to put up humiliation. >> and the girls begged dad to join in. >> let's just say steve commits. >> that's a funny video to

watch. >> that is a courageous father. >> the things a dad will do. >> he knew the dance. he's with it. >> would i dance to that? >> you do not want to see me dance. certainly not wearing that. welcome back, everyone. i'm jeff glor, norah and gayle are off this morning and millions of americans start the first work day of the new year in record breaking cold. nearly 90% of the country has below freezing temperatures this morning. in the midwest and northeast, many low temperatures are below zero. there are single digit lows in parts of the south and in texas. >> the national weather service says the lowest temperature in the continental u.s. yesterday was 45 below and in north dakota. it's blamed for at least five deaths, three in chicago and two in milwaukee. we're in niagra falls where the famous landmark is starting to freeze. as long as you're not starting

to freeze. that's our biggest concern. good morning. >> reporter: i think i'm starting to join the niagra falls when it comes to freezing but it is cold. i told you earlier that it is absolutely beautiful out here. you can now see it because the sun has come out, but take a look behind me. it looks beautiful but it is dangerously cold out here and even the locals here are predicting that by the end of the month the place will be completely frozen over. so that's not good news. >> we will be back to demarco with more as he warms up. president trump is back in washington facing international turmoil. the president tweeted again this morning about ongoing protests in iran, quote the people are acting against the brutal and rupt regime. the people have little food, big inflation and no human rights. the u.s. is watching.

iranian state tv says overnight clashes between security forces and anti government demonstrators killed nine people. that brings the death toll to at least 21 in five days of protests. the largest since 2009. north korea's nuclear threat is another imminent issue. south korea is offering high level talks with north korea next week. they will discuss cooperation during the upcoming olympics and improving ties. kim jong-un said yesterday he is willing to send a delegation to the olympics. his new year's speech also featured nuclear threats against the u.s. national security advisor h.r. mcmaster told us last month that the president supports talks only if north korea takes steps to lower its nuclear threat. the group has a report out this morning of the top geo political risks we face in the new year. the president is also a cbs news

contributor. good to see you. >> happy new year. >> china is on top of the list. why? >> well, it's bigger. they have the strongest leader they've had at least since mal and because the united states is mechanic first. it's transactional. it's undermining a lot of alliances. you put those things together and suddenly you actually have a china that is willing to engage in what is increasingly a geo political vacuum. this is the first time we've ever seen as u.s. leadership erode, now the leadership of china is saying we're prepared to stand up whether it's on climate or the global economy, you know, regional security, you name it, that's a big change for the world. t. >> regional partners are also looking to china if they want american leadership in the world. >> they are. the chinese are the ones that are saying we'll stand up. we'll do something about paris. we'll build a one belt one road. you saw the president saying

pakistan, we're not going to do anything on terrorism. trump has a point. the chinese are already by far the most important economic contributor to pakistan. they didn't have those sorts of opgs five, ten years ago. this is a different environment and we're not used to having someone else out there that says oh, the americans aren't the only game in town anymore. >> you go on to say that if you had to pick one year to have an unexpected geo political crisis it is this year. what's the number one hot spot for you? >> it could be north korea, could be iiran. the point is there are a lot of pieces moving around and when you have an economic recession everyone wants to put money into it. when you have a gee joe political session, the americans are abdicating, that's not a sustainable environment. that's when things are more likely to go wrong. we just got through a year of the trump administration and thankfully no geo political

crisis. 2018 feels worse from that perspective. >> what do you make of what's transpiring in iran just over the weekend? >> well, in 2009 there were millions of people demonstrating. in 2018 we're still talking about thousands. lots of different cities that don't have a particular leadership and they're not responding to any one issue. it's a bunch of grievances. most important the state of their economy. the bigger danger for iran right now is this is happening where the saudis have very strong u.s. support and where the americans aren't trying to do a nuclear deal. we're threatening to rip one up. the hard liners will feel like they need to take more control, crack more heads, even though this isn't nearly as much of a threat domestically. i think it's more of a geo political challenge than it is that the iranian regime is about to crumble. >> a global tech cold war is number three on your list.

are we there. >> reporter: -- already? >> they're anything involving ai and big technology. we have some of the biggest tech companies many the world. they have the others. we've got some of the best super computers, they have the others. the different thing is in the united states it's not washington. our government isn't investing in ai. our companies are. in china, it's the chinese and increasingly with a trade conflict between the united states and china that's looming, that tech play is going to be a fragmentation and other countries around the world, other companies are going to be looking and saying, who do we need to play with? that is going to play out this year. >> amazing you come back to china on almost every question. >> also trade. mexico is also on this list. i think surprises a lot of people. >> mexico, this is a year where they have a presidential election coming up and anti-americanism unfortunately

is going to suddenly be a really big topic. no, they're not going to pay for the wall but they're worried about nafta. we're saying we want to renegotiate and it's going to get split sizpoliticized. you can make a lot of big promises that can go badly. mexico looks to come out of this year in a much more dangerous position than the entry. >> interesting who's not on this list and that's vladimir putin and russia. we talk about russia on a daily basis. why aren't they on the list for you. >> for the same reason that trump's tweets aren't on the list. the actual impact on the global economy and the global environment is less than you think. putin -- the russian economy is smaller than canada's. and you know, ukraine, he took ukraine? no. most of ukraine he lost. it's oriented toward the west. he's largely out of sire where. putin is goi

-- syria. it's not that big of a deal. >> so a lot of noise. >> when bremer says it's not that big of a deal i believe it. it's a great list. thanks for your time as always. >> some of the biggest names in hollywood are turning outrage about sexual harassment into action. jodi cantor inspired the

breaking barriers in a male dominated field in the 1970s. she'll be here with her new book that reveals how she overcame obstacles and earned respect in the sports world. you're watching cbs this morning. feel the power of thenew power...smax. ...to fight back theraflu's powerful new formula to defeat 7 cold and flu symptoms... fast. so you can play on. theraflu expressmax. new power. (hard exhalation) honey? can we do this tomorrow? (grunts of effort) can we do this tomorrow? if you have heart failure symptoms,

your risk of hospitalization could increase, making tomorrow uncertain. but entresto is a medicine that was proven, in the largest heart failure study ever, to help more people stay alive and out of the hospital than a leading heart failure medicine. women who are pregnant must not take entresto. it can cause harm or death to an unborn baby. don't take entresto with an ace inhibitor or aliskiren. if you've had angioedema while taking an ace or arb medicine, don't take entresto. the most serious side effects are angioedema, low blood pressure, kidney problems, or high potassium in your blood. ♪ tomorrow, tomorrow... ♪ when can we do this again, grandpa? well, how about tomorrow? ask your doctor about entresto and help make tomorrow possible.

ask your doctor about entresto i'm joy bauer, and as a nutritionist i know probiotics can often help. try digestive advantage. it is tougher than your stomach's harsh environment, so it surivies a hundred times better than the leading probiotic.

a new initiative is taking on sexual harassment across the

country. time's up includes more than 300 prominent women in entertainment. the group vows to fight systemic and inequality and injustice in the work place. a legal defense fund will help less privileged women and men protect themselves from sexual misconduct. jodi cantor is here. her reporting of course helped break the harvey weinstein scandal last year. >> how the world has changed since your report came out october 5th. >> i was just doing my job. >> what incredible work it's done and it's evolved now to this time's up. >> so after we and others reported on these revelations throughout hollywood, women began organizing informally. they were gathering in each other's living rooms and they felt the competition between them that has always existed melt away somewhat and they

shared these deep personal stories some of which have not been told publicly and they found so many common strands and they decided that together they wanted to use this window to actually change the business. they feel in many ways it's kind of betrayed them. >> and this group doesn't just impact and focus on hollywood as we mentioned. these are women and men in various fields and various different ethnicities and sayre y -- various income bracts. >> they're trying to reach across the economic divide and say we're going to devote some of our resources and our privilege to el h pielping you well. >> talking about the economic climate and you mentioned the legal defense fund as well. that's part of this. it's helping folks who wouldn't ordinarily be able to protect themselves. >> part of the goal of these wealthy women in hollywood is to provide funds for lower paid

women to protect themselves from harassment by using these legal resources that can be really expensive. it can be expensive to come forward and they're hoping to provide some sort of security and resources for doing that. >> they want to change the landscape broadly. one piece of that that's pretty ambitious is changing the board rooms, leadership. do you think that this initiative can push more women into leadership roles, reconfigure that power balance. >> the role of agencies in hollywood has problematic because as we reported agencies often knew about harvey weinstein and would send the women into the hotel rooms anyway and these were their clients they're supposed to be protecting. so agencies are on the defensive right now and one thing this group is asking for is much more priority in all leadersh

structures and part of the question is is the leadership of hollywood going to look different? >> there's talk about a lot of women in solidarity wearing black, but there is some controversy about it as well. >> i think this is going to be a fascinating award show to watch with a very different dynamic than in past years because this is the first time that hollywood has really convened publicly since the wine steveinstein and revelations. you've got the red carpet which is retro, women are paraded down the red carpet, usually to smile and not say much. so what eva longoria said, we're not willing to just be ornaments this year. we're t no willing to go out and sell this award show without asking any of the big questions about power in hollywood and then you've got the question of

what people will actually say when they're asked about these issues. >> it will be fascinating to watch. >> there is going to be a lot of black on that red carpet is what i would imagine. >> thank you very much. the coast guard is busy houssay lors were in the right place at the right time to rescue a florida driver. you're. whatting c -- you're watching cbs this morning.

,000 deaths in america last year. we need to stand up and say enough. the only way this problem is going to be solved is if we raise our voices. choose help over helplessness, hope over hopelessness. make sure that the lives we've lost will not have been lost in vain. addiction is a disease. when you ask for help, help is there for you.

10 miles per hour all it takes for it to really knock back your windchill values, at least we've cracked into positive territory, in some spots, but, it is still feeling like it is below zero in many locations, and for the majority of the day, probably not going to feel any better than single digits. now, by tomorrow, we at leagues rebounds, but then tomorrow night into thursday, nor'easter, decides, it will develop, so the coldest just going to get reinforced. >> because of the colds, katie , water main breaks across the delaware valley including this one, this is in moorestown, kings highway, this is near pleasant valley road, right near the pleasant valley apartment complex, some heavy icing on the roadways, so use route 38 to get around that, we also have an accident , 322 logan township new jersey injuries recorded at bridgeport road, use high hill road to get around this one. joe, been crazy morning with these water main breaks. >> indeed, pat. thanks for keeping us on top of it, next update 85:00, a ahead on cbs this morning,

keep the penguins inside. temperatures have averaged minus 28 celsius in recent days. a new report highlights the intense pressure on young women to share nude photos of themselves. researchers at north western university analyzed nearly 500 stories on an anti cyber bullying and sexting campaign's website. more than two thirds of girls age 12 through 18 said they had been asked for explicit images. researchers say the girls faced persistent requests from boys to send those pictures. psychologist and news contributor writes about the study in a an article called teenagers, stop asking for nude photos. she says it's time to quote, recalibrate some of the toxic norms that have taken hold among teenagers. good morning. >> good morning. >> so what do teen women face when they decline to send nude photos of themselves? >> well, so what this research

article documented is that when girls say no, they are often then pressured, they're asked repeatedly. they sometimes face harassment and threats, they're sometimes cut off from relationships that this has been going on among teenagers for a while. i really respect these researchers for bringing it to light. it's something they've dealt with alone. >> this is defined as a new relational norm though which i think is shocking to a lot of people who were not aware it was going on, but how does that end? >> well, there's lots of ways it ends. one is bringing it to light. we've made a practice of saying don't send nude photos. we have not made a practice of saying don't ask for nude photos. and so one of the important things we need to do at this point is we need to recalibrate that norm and set rules around this. >> and the research also shows that a lot of girls feel pressured to send these photos. what are some of the conversations that parents and

teachers can be having with their children? >> i think what we need to say to our kids whether we're in the role of schools or parents is we need to say look, don't send nude photos. it puts you in an awkward position, personally, socially and also legally. then we need to say don't ask for nude photos. it puts someone in a terrible position to do so. >> you know, it's interesting, i've been a practicing psychologist for a long time and when i italked with teenagers and when a lot of us talk with teenagers usually the subtext is all right, ladies we're going to ask you to regulate adolescent sexuality because we're not going to ask the boys. i think it's something we need to change is that we're going to ask them to be fair and equitable, both boys and girls in terms of how they handle themselves in relationships.

>> how old should children be when the conversations started. >> these were starting with 12-year-olds, so i think you probably want to get out ahead of it and you may the second you hand over a phone to a teenager, i think a great rule is don't do anything with this phone you wouldn't want your grandmother to see. but then i think it's time to start moving that conversation up. 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th grade. >> when you hear about people sexting in the digital age and their response to you is this is just the new norm, your answer is what? >> i think what we need to say is sure, adults do it and that's a completely different ball game because you're above the age of 18. i think what we need to appreciate is that norms are created in parts by rules. so if we have no rules saying don't ask for pictures, we're not creating the norms we want to create. so i think we need to actually take that extra step and make a

rule for all teenagers, girls and boys. don't ask for these pictures. >> it's an uncomfortable pub jacket matter f-- subject matte to talk about. >> we owe them support for how they're going to conduct their relationships now because that lays the ground work for how they're going to conduct relationships as adults. >> thanks so much. thanks for having me. lesley visser is the only woman in the pro football hall of fame. ahead, how her mom of all people encouraged her to pursue a career

become in the football hall of fame and in 2009, the first nl analysts on tv. >> and she's still going. 35 super bowls. 35 ncaa final fours and ten olympics. he's also a contributor to we need to talk on the sports network, the first nationally televised all female sports show. her new book is sometimes you have to cross when it says don't walk. she shares her struggles and triumphs and we're joined now. you just brightened up our house. >> say it all again. >> but seeing what you've accomplished as a woman in an industry where your mom told you, you know, sometimes you have to cross when it says don't walk because there were no women in that field, how do you feel today now looking at what you've accomplished? >> you know, i remember our great john madden who of course

worked with cbs for so many years and you know, john said it's a strange thing, now you guys live this world too. congratulations to both of you, but you guys live this. he says it's a strange thing when you go from being the observer to the observed and so that's what i'm much more at home asking you guys about your background. i love to show that. >> but you knew you wanted to do this at 11 years old. >> my mother, we lived in cincinnati at the time and moved a lot as a kid which was great for sports and i said to my mother, i was like ten maybe or 11. i said, you know what i want to be a sports writer and my mother instead of at that time women were only three things, you know, nurses, teachers or homemakers and my mother instead of saying what, are you crazy? she said to me, grade, sometimes you have to cross when it says don't walk. >> but it was not an easy journey to get from that 11-year-old to where you are

now. talk about the doubt. i mean, your mother was obviously an empowerer, she empowered you in a lot of ways but how much skepticism did you meet along the way when you said this is what i want to do. >> plenty. i was sharing with someone that when i started there were no ladies rooms because there were no other women and what's the great movie, hidden figures and that was my life. i used to sit in the patriots press box, and i would say do i have time to go down the elevator across to the only public rest room and get back before the patriots puntded? so yes, i used humor was my default. i don't know what you guys use, but humor was mine and -- >> that's how you got through it. >> that's how i got through it. other people use other mechanisms but for me humor worked. >> when you talk to kids who want to go into this business
