nothing on this scale. this time, they aimed to take the lives of innocent people, he said, to destroy our tourism and our economy. the thai government has its sure of internal enemies but, at this point, nobody is ruling out international terror groups either. adding to fears, after that explosion at the canal this morning, police found two more explosive devices following the deadly blast last night which bomb disposal teams were able to diffuse. recovery crews overnight found the bodies of all 54 people found in a plane crash in indonesia. triyana air plane went down on sunday. the victims will be moved to papua capital city for identification. the black boxes have been recovered and in good condition. crews reportedly found a portion of the aid money that was on board the plane. immigration is topic number one this morning in the

like trump, would end the extension of citizenship to any child born in america by an immigrant. >> i think we should change the rules, the law, but in terms of deporting the best thing we can do is enforce the law. >> reporter: carly fiorina questioned trump's ability to back his words with action. >> their aspects of donald trump's immigration plan i agree with but the truth is we keep talking about this and we never get it done. >> reporter: jeb bush was in south carolina where he took issue with trump's plan to build a wall along the southern u.s. border paid foy forr by the mexican government. >> i appreciate the fact that trump has a plan, if that is what it's called, but i think the better approach is to deal with the 11 million people here illegally in a way that is realistic. >> reporter: ohio governor john kasich told cbs that unlike trump, he supports a path to obtain legal status.

>> i don't favor legal shape citizenship because you don't jump the line to go to a taylor swift concert, you just don't do it, as i tell my daughters. the idea that we would go out in cars and hunt people down, it's not doable and, secondly, i don't think it's right! i don't think it's humane! >> reporter: kasich came here for columbia, south carolina, to fill out the paper work and write the check to qualify for next year's republican presidential presidential. more paper work and more checks will be written to qualify for that republican primary race. >> thanks, major. more than 300 messages from hillary clinton private e-mail server might contain classified information. that is according to intelligence officials. they are reviewing about 30,000 e-mails clinton sent and received while is that. so far, they have examined

ruffle 6,000 messages or about 20% of those. 305 are flagged for further analysis. the fbi is now holding on to clinton's server. the democratic presidential front-runner says none of her e-mails were marked classified at the time. capitol hill lawmakers this morning are blasting the irs. the agency is alertinging hundreds of thousands of taxpayers that they are hacking victims. jan crawford is at the irs headquarters where the size of a data breach is exploding. >> reporter: officials at the irs now say that that breach announced back in may affected nearly three times as many people as they had originally thought. now, hackers used social security numbers and other information to get the returns of 334,000 taxpayers and up from 114,000 that they first thought. the irs believes that the thieves targeted its website to get detailed information on the

victims to help them claim fraudulent tax returns next year. the irs says it is going to be mailing letters in the next few days to about 220,000 taxpayers who were affected. it's going to be offering free credit monitoring, along with the option for victims to enroll in a program where they are given a secure pin that they must use to file their taxes the next year. when this breach was originally announced back in may, officials said they thought the fees were part of some sophisticated criminal operations that were coming out of russia. >> thank you, jan. a little pink pill to help women's libido could be a big reality today. a fda decision on whether to approve the drug is expected the next few hours. we have shown you, controversy surrounds the drug. our dr. tara narula is a doctor in new york city and joins us at the table this morning. >> good morning. >> the decision we are expecting before noon today, what do you think it's going to be and why is it so controversial?

>> this drug was turned down in 2010 and 2013 but in june of this year a panel recommended it with be approved with some caveat. 88% of the time the fda will follow its panel's recommendations so it's likely it will be proofed. if approved it is a drug labeled with premenopausal women with low sexual desire causes stress. >> isn't it basically just an antidepressant? when i read the information here, you take it every day and not before sex and not like viagra and not addressing the plumbing but addressing a mental state. >> it failed to be used as an antidepressant but they found an increase in sex drive as reported by the subjects. this drug works essentially in the brain and changes the dopamine and other levels. you take it every day and it takes a couple of weeks to reach a peak effect and different from viagra and change the blood flow

to the genital organs. the effects occur rapidly. >> why is to controversial? >> it's a fascinating issue. you know, there are arguments for both sides. critics argue it has modest efficacy and not much better than a placebo drug and the side effects are risky and can cause low belowlood pressure and maybe we don't need to treat it medically. on the other hand, you have supporters who say this is a big unmet need. women are suffering. we need to offer them something and there are a lot of drugs out on the market that has similar side effects but we leave that risk benefit analysis at the -- to the discretion of the physician and the patient. to make that decision. >> did anything change between examination in 2010 and 2013 and what is expected today? >> the pharmaceutical company did provide more safety data and other research to the fda. so there was more information

this time around. >> we will be watching it closely. dr. tara narula, thank you. tomorrow only on "cbs this morning," cindy whitehead, maker of the little pink pill, she will be here in studio 57 tomorrow. in missouri they got a big scare when a dance floor suddenly collapsed during a show. we are getting our first look this morning at this video that shows what happened. dozens of people were jumping to the music saturday when the floor dropped a foot. no major injuries were reported. >> hard to believe nobody was hurt looking at the video but glad they are okay. two female soldiers will make history as they become the first women to graduate from the army's ranger school and made it through a grueling two-month training program. the armed services are under orders to open up all combat jobs to women by the end of this year. david martin is at the pentagon

with this trail blazing achievement. david, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. these two women are part of a military elite which, until now, has consisted only of men. we don't know their names yet. but they are expected to appear before the media on thursday ahead of their graduation on friday. 19 women started the army ranger course. 62 days of nearly constant physical and mental stress on little food and less sleep. the two women who became the first-ever to complete it are both west point graduates. but the army has not yet released their names, in part, to protect them from harassment by die-hards who cannot stomach the idea of females wearing the coveted ranger tab. along with 94 men, they made it through a week of physical testing at ft. benning, georgia, and then went through mountain training in north georgia and swamp training in florida. men and women were all held to

the same standards and it is frequently hard to tell them apart in the scenes that the army allowed cameras to record. >> one of the key things the students learn is that limit they believe exists probably doesn't and that they are capable of doing much more under very difficult circumstances. >> reporter: at the graduation ceremony on friday, the men and women will each be awarded the ranger tab to wear on their uniform. but unlike the men, the women will not be allowed to serve in the elite ranger unit. accepting women into rangers school was part of the army's experiment to determine if they could withstand the grinding life of the infantry and carrying heavy packs and operating in harsh terrain day after day. >> for those women who are able to complete the course, it will probably help them in some ways in their careers. >> reporter: the fact that two women have now completed the course does not guarantee women will be allowed to serve in the infantry, but it is a major step in that direction. one of the commanders of the

ranger school compared it to breaking the four-minute mile. once a barrier is broken, others will soon follow. >> david, such an exciting achievement. thank you. two michigan lawmakers were apparently not shy about their affair. ahead, their former aide offers details about the relationship he says announcer: this portion of "cbs this morning" sponsored by plenti. lots of points.

"wall street journal" reports on the post office ramping up same day delivery, part of a push to make the service more competitive with fedex and u.p.s. the new postmaster general is trying to extend grocery delivery and start shipping alcoholic beverages and office more sunday delivery. the "los angeles times" said more than 600 shots fired by police was excessive during stockton bank robbery. 32 officers fired rounds at a speeding suv. the hostage was killed by police bullets. we are hearing this morning from a former aide of two michigan lawmakers caught up in a sex scandal. joshua cline resigned in april and said he was troubled by an

between representatives todd courser and cindy gamrat. >> reporter: representatives courser and gamrat were launched together as staunch conservatives and so far they have bipartisanship widespread calls to step down but the latest revelations from a former trusted aide are adding more pressure on the two lawmakers. >> they frequently greeted each other what appeared to be long, romantic hugs and imprem braces. >> reporter: joshua cline said the extramarital affair was disrupting. >> they would disappear for hours at time. mr. courser would often nap on gamrat's floor. gamrat would toss him a pillow and a blanket. >> reporter: cline confronted courser and gamrat in january and was told to mind his own

business. one month later, he said gamrat's husband joe found out about the adultery. >> he called to say he saw cindy leave todd's hotel room at approximately 2:00 a.m. this morning. when we arrived that morning at work and he was late and she smelled of alcohol. >> reporter: the two were forced to admit their fidelity last week after an expo say by the detroit news. in secret audio recordings courser is heard trying to enlist another staffer who was on the state payroll to help cover up the affair. courser wanted to create a political distraction. it falsely claimed he had been caught having sex with a male prostitute. gam did the rat insisted she had no knowledge of the scheme and broke no state laws. >> i want to apologize for the negative attention this has brought.

for that, i am truly sorry. >> reporter: in a facebook page, courser said he had been exposed as, quote, a hypocrite in my life, a laughable joke. he also claims cline and two other former aides are blackmailing him and he released these text messages he said came from the plotters. one read i'm letting everybody off the hook on one condition only, you resign, todd. cline and a former aide flatly deny sending courser those anonymous text. courser and gamrat did not respond to "cbs this morning." courser says he plans to make a statement later today. >> i can't wait to hear that. #that whole thing "hot mess." this morning, olympic blade runner oscar was storious ise pistorious is getting ready to leave prison after was facing a five-year sentence.

treatment, the usual, but his troubles are not over. >> steinkamp's family has spoken and they are not happy. do you think he may go back to prison? >> i think he could go back to prison. i think the real headline here which seems to have gotten lost in everybody's fresy about the fact he is released to house arrest is this. in the system in south africa, as opposed to the u.s. system, you can go back and it's not double jeopardy there. the prosecution is going back to an appellate tribunal to say, look, we think the judge was wrong and you should reinstate the murder conviction. so that brief is going to be filed. there will be a hearing in november. i promise to report back to you, because that is where it gets interesting. prosecution says, look, it's a simple question of law. the judge was wrong on the law. there's a doctrine.

it is called, in english, what it means is if you shoot and, here he shot four times through a door, isn't it reasonable that you intend that there will be injury or death to whoever is the other side of that door? so it is possible a tribunal could reinstate a murder conviction, in which case, 15 years or more in prison. >> i think everybody will be watching that very closely. a lot of people looking for justice. rikki klieman, thank you so much. this morning, california's farms are slipping through the cracks. >> i'm ben tracy in california's central valley where the ground is sinking. up to one foot each year. you used to be able to fit a kayak under that bridge and now the bridge is flush with the water. we will tell you how this is being caused by california's historic drought coming up on "cbs this morning." if you're heading off to

ben tracy shows us how the land is becoming as unstable as the water supply. >> reporter: every six weeks, michelle snead visits this white shed. she checks the pulley system and records a measurement. the numbers show that the ground beneath her feet is sinking. >> we are measuring the highest rate we have ever measured here, one of the highest rates ever measured in the entire world. >> reporter: these are the government hydraulic and says parts of california's central valley are dropping by one foot each year. some areas are ten feet lower than they used to be. we would have had many, many feet of dirt above our heads, right? >> that's right, that's right. we would be standing ten feet higher than we are standing right now. >> reporter: this is why the ground is collapsing. california's farmers are pumping ground water as fast as they can in order to keep their crops alive during a drought that has left them high and very dry. but when this much water is

pumped out of the aquaifer below the ground, the clay between the pockets of water collapses and the ground starts to deflate like a leaky air mattress. the sinking is buckling the walls of irrigation canals, damaging pipes, creating giant sinkholes and cracking homes. this bridge has dropped so much, the water will soon flow over it instead of under it. fixing the damage could cost more than $100 million tax dollars. >> have you to go deeper and deeper. >> reporter: steve arthur is well driller. some wells with 25 feet deep and that is two empire state buildings under ground. with water that deep is thousands of years old. but it is desperately needed because more than half of the country's fruits, vegetables and nuts, are grown here. you tell this farmer he can't drill any more wells, he can't farm as many acres, you're going to go into the store and buy a gallon of milk for $10 and a loaf of bred for $5. then the public is going to say,

it will pop up what it actually is. ez pass don't send bills, warnings or threats via e-mail. what they do is they send bills through the u.s. postal service. so what you do, if you're being threatened or being pressured like that, you go in, you type in the actual url, ez pass new york.com and you contact their customer support and say, is this legitimate? secondlily, you also make sure that you just don't respond or ever open anything. and, again, if a company like ez pass does contact you and this goes for any big company, what they will do is -- look. what they won't do is never ask you here is your attachment, here is this, pay it, go on. about what they will do is we want you to logon to your secure account using your user name and password. >> these scams, they started out, they were pretty basic. people claiming to be nigerian

national attention in 2012 when he was pulled over on his way to a charity event and had forgotten to take off his batman costume. instead of giving him a ticket, the police officers took pictures with him. >> kid, do me a favor. do well in school. >> reporter: after selling his successful leaning business, 51-year-old robinson decided to devote his life to giving back. he spent thousands of dollars to transform himself into batman, buying a replica of the bat mobile, all for the kids. >> they are constantly fighting for their lives. this helps them. that is what it's all about. >> they forget that they are sick. you know, when batman is in the room with these kids, they totally forget that they have cancer that they are there to get blood transfusions and they are there to get chemotherapy or radiation. all they are at the moment they are with lenny, that man, they are just happy. >> at the end of the day, you

must ask yourself, did i make a difference? and the answer had better be yes. >> thousands and thousands of kids have lost a hero. that is a tragedy. but he made a difference in so many lives and he will be remembered always. >> reporter: the publisher of batman comics tweeted last night the following. >> he did make a difference. he really did. >> he really did. >> a sad story when we all heard it. do you know why he started doing this, don? >> he and his son were dressed up as batman around halloween time and they decided to visit a hospital. he saw the reaction of the kids and he said, "that changed my life." >> he sold his business and got a bat mobile. >> and financed it all on his own.

they are kidding. that was scary. this morning, the u.s. tennis association, and the nfl are part of a new campaign trying to prevent kid from focusing on playing just one sport. in "the huffington post" jennifer wallace writes, quote. jennifer, good morning. so you're telling us now that kids don't need to specialize early to become great athletes? >> right. when we were growing up, the ideal athlete was the one who played three varsity sports. i grew up playing multiple sports. but today's child, children as young as 7 are now specializing in one sport year-round. parents have convinced themselves, as have the coaches, that the surest path to success is one sport, playing it for multiple months out of the year, at the exclusion of other sports. >> which makes sense.

>> i was going to say, i'm not an athlete at all, i'm the kid where they said, we had gayle last time, now it's your turn! i know nothing really at all about athletics. i thought if i was good at a certain sport, what is wrong with focusing on that one sport? >> a few reasons. one is under age 12, most sports psychologists will say a child doesn't have the capacity tond what that commitment is so it did lead to burnout and serious overuse injuries. children should be playing multiple sports, using multiple muscles, not just one sport for 10, 11, 12 month out of the year. also a lot of pressure. when a child is specializing in one sport it becomes work. it's not play. childhood is about play. >> and a lot of good tennis players will tell you playing soccer helped them with footwork and helped them become better tennis players. >> skills are transfersable. >> are people putting too much pressure on their children at these young ages to become star athletes in the future?

>> absolutely. i think a few things that are driving the trend. i think parents want the best for their children. i think insist coming out of love for your child but it's misguided. the idea that childhood should be spent working and not experimenting in multiple sports is not in the best interest of the child. parents are looking to get scholarships or a leg up on the competitive admissions process in college. but sports is not the way. if you look at the ncaa website, only about 5% of high school athletes will play college sports. and only about 2% will get a scholarship. so are you willing to gamble your childhood with those slim numbers? >> but there is this question, though. you look at whoever is best in sports, whether it's soccer or tennis or golf, if they start very early and find out they were very good and then concentrated on that sport, at the very top? >> very few. i would say tiger woods, yes, the williams sisters, yes. >> jordan spieth, is it true

about him or not true? >> when you look at the recent studies of olympic athletes and college division i athletes and minor leaguers, the majority of those players played multiple sports and did not specialize before age 12. that is why this ad is so important. that parents and coaches need to be educated. >> you're saying parents -- >> correct. >> your kids -- >> below 12? >> yes, below 12. >> got it. thank you, jennifer. >> thanks. president obama continues his summer vacation this morning on martha's vineyard. nearby, we found another powerful group. they change people's lives with a magical summer camp. wyatt andrews met inspirational volunteers and guests. >> reporter: good morning. a few miles down the road where the president is staying on martha's vineyard, it is unof the most unusual summer camps anywhere in the world and called champ jabberw on ocky and a camp for the disabled. even the severely disabled. if you come to this camp as a counselor, you better be ready

to do everything. the first thing you notice about the campers from camp jabberwocky is that they are noisy and all of it is the sound of celebration. on saturday, the camp hosted its main fund-raiser a 5 k race on martha's vineyard and drew almost 500 runners including 34 of the disabled campers who, no matter their disability. >> come on, dad! stick it up! >> from mild down syndrome to severe cerebral palsy, either crossed or were pushed over the finish line, even from those campers who cannot communicate, there is no mistaking the look of trying. peter bradin is one of the campers who finished the race. what does the camp give you that you don't have in the rest of your life? >> all of the fun i can get. >> all of the fu? >> yes. >> reporter: the camp is nestled in the woods of the vineyard was

started in 1953 when its founder helen lamb insisted the disabled involved not in institutions but they belonged outside. she died in 2011 but her vision of telling campers what they can do is alive. almost every day the campers go horseback riding and paddle boarding and minigolfing and are taken for a swim in the ocean. lee who was volunteered here for 17 years, says everyone believes that everything is possible. >> and then you bring them to a horseback riding stable and say, no, you can get on this horse. they say, i don't think i can get on that horse. absolutely. if you want to, we can get you on that horse. there is a can-do attitude i have never found anywhere else. >> reporter: one of the things that makes this camp so special is the way so many of the people here from the campers to the counselors and the cooks wind up returning here every summer for the rest of their lives. peter bradine, the camper who finished the 5k is 33 years old and been a camper for 22 years.

jeremy long, every summer for 30 years. there is no age limit because once are here, you are family. when we ask what the volunteerses are paid to give up their summers year after year, here is the answer. your actual monetary compensation? >> zero. >> reporter: patty kennedy has been a cook and kitchen manager for 11 years. >> i'm paid with seeing the campers enjoy their summers. >> reporter: one of the highlights of every summer is the talent show which included peterson's rendition of "grease" lightning. >> then the dancing started with the wheelchair-bound campers. to the counselors, this is the moment the big personalities for the campers emerge from their physical shell. haley love is the counselor dancing with emily. >> what did you see in her expression when she was up there dancing? >> pure joy and expressing herself in different ways.

i think it's so important. >> reporter: the camp operates on 450,000 dollars a year but with almost all of that coming from donors and fund-raisers. the cost of parents is governed by a simple rule. the parents are asked to pay whatever they can afford. gayle? >> what a great place. thank you, wyatt. great place, great piece. you get paid in hugs, big fun, and pure joy. sounds good to me. thank you, wyatt, again. one state is dominating dieting and may not what you're thinking about. the team from bon appetit are in

because you get to travel around the country and eat. i'm trying to figure out how come you don't have a weight problem. >> a lot of half-marathons and cycling. >> it sounds like a diner. >> it sounds like a diner. no owls. everyone goes in looking for an owl. erin london is the chef there. it's vegetarian forward restaurant. a little bit of fish on the menu and what meat there is are the sides at the bottom. and i think this is really ushers in a new wave of fine dining because it's basically a neighborhood restaurant but you're getting this super creative level of food you can see there that you would expect in fine dining and it's basically a neighbor restaurant. >> how did you select those that you were considering and what were the standards when you making a decision as to rating them? >> so we start with probably a list of about 500 restaurants and window that down. >> all new restaurants? >> all new restaurants. may 2014 to may 2015 is kind of our time frame. we go and visit.

i spend about four months out of the year. hard-core just eating around america. and then kind of whittle that list down to the top fifty. what are you looking for? >> restaurants that have something behind it that are passionate and not kind of concepty. i like corky restaurants and i like small, independent ones. >> does -- matter? >> of course, it did. >> quirky, what about taste? >> taste is number one. >> it's nice to see all of them weren't big cities and you did find some sort of hittendden gems? >> home of steph curry's college, he came back town to open up a restaurant and it's become a community gathering place in a small town of about 11,000 people and you're getting chefs have done a lot of that. gone off to san francisco or chicago or new york and worked with the best chefs in the world and come home to their small towns and open restaurant at a

great level and so interesting now, you're seeing a leveling of the playing field and as many restaurants in this secondary or tertiary markets as in san francisco and l.a. >> you chose one restaurant in brooklyn. good for them. there were no new restaurants in manhattan. >> charlie not happy about that. >> let's not feel too bad for manhattan because it's still one of the most exciting places to dine. i think it's tough to open a restaurant in manhattan now with a lot of the rules and regulations. as we all, rents are really high in new york. so when you open a restaurant, it needs to be all, like, perfect and concepty and everything has to be planned out. you don't kind of get these very personal one chef going out and doing their own thing. >> manhattan, you could be paying 60,000 a month for rent at least.

unless you're in a partnership. the restaurant andrew is talking about is a little more personal and passionate and a little bit more do it yourself. >> difficult. >> manhattan is challenging playground. >> people in brooklyn are going, where is the restaurant in brooklyn? what is the name? >> a nia. >> what did you like about it? >> it's a husband and a wife. mostly vegetarian cooking. >> it's more vegetable bowls and beautiful dishes. it's like being invited into their dining room and cooking for you. king course is $75. >> what about the service? >> that is the number one complaint that people have because it's something that everybody can relate to. i think service today is better than it's ever been in the united states. i think it's not the fine dining service with the white gloves but it's very casual. people know so much about food and expect their servers to know that. >> you could be friendly and

professional at the same time. why not? >> four of the top ten are in california. two from san francisco. why california? >> california has always had a wealth of riches when it comes to ingredients but i don't think they always did a lot with them. the big joke they would put a plum on a plaette and call it a day, right? now they are taking techniques and hard work and what new york always had and the best of both worlds now. >> california has always done well is casual. now the casual restaurants are becoming the fine dining. >> any standout meals like one meal you just can't stop thinking about that you had? >> for me the first time i walked into a place and i had a gut reaction. this is the most amazing creative food i've had in a long time. >> i had lunch at my desk that day. busy working. >> thank you, guys. >> that's important. >> it is important. >> thank you, guys. >> thank you. you're watching "cbs this morning."
